Chapter 66: What a Brother
Following Yu Dongmei, strolling from the first floor to the fourth floor, Fang Hanmin had almost nothing to say to her. Although shopping malls are also one of Yu Dongmei's hobbies, this kind of aimless strolling is more than half of Yu Dongmei's interest compared to dancing in the dance hall.
Yu Dongmei looked around, listless, and was seen by Fang Hanmin, he knew that this was definitely not the life that Yu Dongmei liked, but that she took care of the overall situation, gave up her hobbies, and couldn't bear to stimulate his emotions.
Once or twice is okay, the days to come will be long, if Yu Dongmei gives up her hobbies from now on and lives this boring life with herself, Fang Hanmin thinks that she is too selfish!
On the one hand, there are inseparable emotions between the two parties, and on the other hand, the two have very different interests and hobbies, and Yu Dongmei's psychology is very entangled. Since high school, she has thought that Fang Hanmin is a person worthy of love, and this opinion has not changed to this day, otherwise, she would not have taken the initiative to pursue Fang Hanmin at the beginning.
Yu Dongmei has long known that her interests and hobbies are completely different from those of Fang Hanmin, but she thinks that it is just a trivial matter in life and will not affect the emotional thread of the two.
Back in the dormitory, Fang Hanmin calmed down and calmly examined his relationship with Yu Dongmei. In terms of the overall evaluation of Dongmei, the views of the host and the traverser are highly consistent, and they both believe that Yu Dongmei is outstanding regardless of external conditions or internal character, and the only thing that makes the host unable to let go is Yu Dongmei's hobbies.
Even if in order to take care of Fang Hanmin's emotions, Yu Dongmei reluctantly gave up her hobby, and it was difficult for the host to accept it, because neither Fang Hanmin in the past nor the current host was the kind of selfish person. Although there are some traditional ideas in the mind, as young people in the new era, the concept of freedom and equality between men and women has long been deeply rooted.
Yu Dongmei likes to sing and dance, and that's not her fault, it's just that this behavior doesn't match the host's traditional concept, which leads to estrangement.
But the time-traveler dismisses this, because his mind is full of modern ideas, and he believes that as long as he loves someone, he must accept everything about her, including her family and her interests. Yu Dongmei likes to dance, if Fang Hanmin can't cultivate her expertise, as long as she can clean herself and simply dance with others, what is unacceptable?
In order to be cautious about the relationship with Yu Dongmei, the host wants to calm himself down for a while, he has to analyze and weigh the trade-offs from many aspects, and carefully evaluate the future trend of the relationship. The traverser agrees, reminding the host not to make a rash decision.
......
There are still more than 20 days before the on-site meeting is held, but fortunately, four assistants helped share part of the work, otherwise, in such a short period of time, even if Fang Hanmin works overtime every day, he will not be able to complete the preparation of the materials required for the meeting.
After accepting the task, Fang Hanmin handed over this part of the information related to the in-depth technical transformation of the second workshop to the four assistants to prepare, and he himself was responsible for summarizing the data of the previous technical transformation projects, and then carried out comprehensive planning.
The four assistants are all participants in the hydrogenation reduction process of the second workshop, and they are very clear about the purpose and significance of the project.
The previous process transformation was not only done by Fang Hanmin himself, but even the final summary report was prepared by him himself, and the meeting materials of the on-site meeting were prepared according to the previously saved summary report, except for the slightly larger workload, there was no difficulty.
This morning, Fang Hanmin was working at his desk in the office when he heard a knock on the door outside, "Please come in!" ”
Sister Li, the attendance clerk of the technical department, pushed the door in, she held a stack of newspapers and several letters in her hand, took out an envelope and two newspapers from it and handed them over, "Section Chief Fang, here is a letter from you." ”
Fang Hanmin got up and took it, "Sister Li, thank you!" ”
Waiting for Sister Li to leave the office, Fang Hanmin glanced at the address on the envelope and knew that it was a letter from his hometown. He tore open the envelope, which contained only a piece of paper, with only four or five lines written on it, and the content of the letter was very simple, to the effect that his mother had greeted relatives and friends and was about to borrow money from them, but those relatives and friends had not heard back so far.
Fang Hanmin remembered that when he returned to his hometown more than half a month ago, his parents talked to him about repairing the house at home, even if Fang Hanmin funded half of the house construction funds, the other half also needed to borrow money from relatives and friends, but it had been three or four months since he said hello, and none of his relatives and friends gave a clear answer. Before leaving, Fang Hanmin told his parents that if there was no news after 10 days, he would write a letter to explain the situation to him, and this was the purpose of the letter.
Fang Hanmin believes that relatives and friends do not reply to the letter, indicating that they have unspeakable secrets, since people refuse to borrow money, it is in vain to wait, but the house in his hometown is too old, and he is really afraid that when the rainy season comes next year, the old house will not be able to withstand the threat of extreme weather, so he believes that the house in his hometown must be built as soon as possible.
Relatives and friends can't count on it, and the house in his hometown must be built, and the problem of funds seems to have to be solved by Fang Hanmin. According to the budget, the money Fang Hanmin has accumulated over the years is only enough for half of the funds needed to build a house, where will the other half of the funds be raised?
Sitting on the chair and thinking wildly, Fang Hanmin thought that Director Yuan had told him that if there were any difficulties in his hometown, he could raise them. What do you mean? Can Lao Yuan help him solve his financial difficulties?
The host thinks that it would be great if Director Yuan could help solve the problem of building funds! Even if you borrow money, you can deduct it from his salary later.
The traverser reminded him that there is nothing to do with the eight characters, don't be happy too early, that is a kind word that Director Yuan said casually, are you still serious? Even if you bring up the difficulties in your hometown, you will be given a hardship subsidy of 1,800 yuan at most, and as for borrowing, it is simply impossible, because Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory has never had such a precedent!
Fang Hanmin felt ridiculous for his childish thoughts, yes, Director Yuan just said it casually, but he regarded it as if it was true, fortunately he didn't bring up the difficulties of his hometown to him, otherwise, it would be ridiculous to spread to the ears of outsiders!
His dream still has to come true by himself, Fang Hanmin retracted his thoughts, lost his illusions, and after searching in his mind, he thought of his high school tablemate, that is, his good brother Lu Hui.
Turning out the contact information left when they met last time, Fang Hanmin took a closer look, only to find that Lu Hui not only had his own office, but also installed a program-controlled phone in the office, this kid is awesome! In the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, which has thousands of people, only Director Yuan's office and factory office have installed program-controlled telephones, and Lu Hui, a self-employed person, has caught up with the treatment of the factory director.
Through the long desk, Fang Hanmin asked the operator to connect the phone in Lu Hui's office, and it was almost the last ring, and the other party picked it up, Fang Hanmin heard that it was Lu Hui's voice, and he poured bitter water, "Brother, do you know how difficult it is for me to make a long-distance call?" If you don't answer, I'm going to collapse! ”
"Why? The chief of the technical section of the dignified Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, and a celebrity in Shuangling City, said that he was so pitiful, did you think so? ”
"It's not pitiful, it's not easy for me to make long-distance calls, first of all, I have to apply to the factory office, and after getting approved, the operator of the long phone station can transfer me to the outside number, both links require people, do you say no?"
"Okay, since it's so hard to make a phone call, let's have something to say. Dude, what are you looking for me? ”
Fang Hanmin was hesitant, as if it was difficult to speak.
Lu Hui was a little puzzled, "Hanmin, this is not your character!" Between us buddies, is there anything you can't say? ”
"Hey! I have such a thing," Fang Hanmin gritted his teeth and said to Lu Hui about wanting to borrow money to repair the house for his hometown, "Brother, can you help me?" ”
In fact, when he was in high school, Lu Hui knew that Fang Hanmin's family was very poor, but he didn't expect that after so many years, his hometown had not made much progress, "Hanmin, if you want to say that I have no money, you must not believe it, but you also know that when I engage in wholesale, my working capital occupies a lot." ”
Fang Hanmin instantly looked like a deflated ball, "Yes, I forgot, your money is all used as liquidity." Brother, I didn't say anything about this just now. ”
"Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm not done yet, why are you retreating? How much does it cost? ”
"Lu Hui, you need more funds to do business, I'd better find another way."
"Hanmin, what's the matter with you? If we're still buddies, you just have to tell me, how much does it cost? You don't have to worry about anything else. It's not easy for me, and I have more ways and means than you. ”
Seeing that Lu Hui was full of sincerity, Fang Hanmin had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Hey, I thought I needed a lot of money, if the amount is large, I'm going to find a friend to turn around, your amount is not big, I can take it myself." When to do it? "Lu Hui is very crisp.
Fang Hanmin didn't expect things to go so smoothly in the end, and his hanging heart finally let go, "I'll send my savings back to my family first, and your money will be used in a month." ”
"That's even more of a problem, and a month later, some of my liquidity is back."
"But brother, my repayment plan may drag on for a long time, because I can only save a part of my monthly salary, and I can only pay you back when I have saved enough."
"Hanmin, I only lent you the money in a month, and now you talk to me about the repayment plan, are we still brothers? Besides, if you borrow this amount of money, it is not a big amount of money, and it will not have any impact on my business, I want to say that I will not let you pay it back, and you will definitely not agree, but you really don't have to rush to pay me back, and you don't need to tighten your belt to save money. Dude, you are twenty-five or sixteen, you have reached the age when you should find a girlfriend, it costs money to get along with a girlfriend, don't be too picky, otherwise, people will look down on you. ”
What a good brother! Hearing these heartfelt words, Fang Hanmin's heart was sour, and his eyes were moist, "Thank you, brother, for your concern!" I know it. ”
With the funds settled, Fang Hanmin immediately wrote a letter to his parents, asking them to start building a house in the slack season after autumn plowing and sowing, and at the same time sent back the first construction funds to his hometown......
Director Yuan attaches great importance to the on-site meeting held in the factory in early November, which is not only a good time to promote the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, but also an excellent opportunity for him to show himself in front of the city leaders.
Therefore, Lao Yuan put down the other work at hand and focused on the overall task that was originally the responsibility of the factory office, and only a week later, he couldn't wait to convene a meeting of relevant personnel to personally inquire about the progress of all aspects of preparation.
In all the preparatory work, Director Yuan was most concerned about the preparation of the technical materials required for the meeting, which was in charge of Fang Hanmin, who was confident and reported the work plan and progress of himself and several assistants.
Lao Yuan was generally satisfied with the preparatory work, but he told Fang Hanmin that the materials prepared for the meeting should be detailed and concise.
