Chapter 171: Getting Better
That night, Wang Weidong and Yao Qiming visited Larimov's house with gifts.
During the chat, Wang Weidong asked Natasha: "Didn't you become a conductor?" ”
Natasha shook her head in frustration: "No, I will go to work in the military service club in a while." ”
The military service club serves the navy in the port, and there are various services such as shops, post offices, food, etc., but such a job is not what Natasha wants.
"There's always a way." Wang Weidong comforted.
If a Chinese child can go to school but doesn't want to go to university, his parents will definitely work hard with him, and they are willing to spare no effort in order for their child to have a good job.
But Larimov was laissez-faire to Natasha, not wanting to go to university and following her own opinions, knowing his daughter's wishes, he didn't want to help too much.
This is the difference between Chinese and foreigners.
Back at the committee club, Yao Qiming asked, "Weidong, are we really going to live here for a month?" ”
"The later you go, the colder the weather, the easier it is to preserve the cod, and you can stay with peace of mind and look for the shadow of the past!" Wang Weidong replied.
From the next day, Wang Weidong went to visit Kyriamots, who was in charge of train dispatch at the railway station.
"I have not been notified by the fishing company that I am not going to send cod to Grodekovo." Tiriamots said.
"Our cod may not ship until a month later, so this time we're just visiting to see old friends." Wang Weidong said.
Hearing Wang Weidong say this, Kyriamots smiled.
Since a Chinese friend had visited, Kyriamots took two people to the platform, where there was a four-meter-high monument. The two-meter-high marble pedestal has four bronze medallions on all four sides, on which are the Arabic numerals: 9288.
Without the introduction of Kyriamots, Yao Qiming said to Wang Weidong: "Weidong, this is the 9288 Monument, which is the end point of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and it is a total of 9288 kilometers from Moscow to here. ”
At noon, Wang Weidong asked Kyriamots to go out to dinner, and Wang Weidong asked Yao Qiming to help him translate and said to him: "The last time we were guests together at Larimov's house, his daughter Natasha told me that she wanted to be a conductor on the train. This time I visited Larimov's house, and Natasha said that she would not have a chance to be a train attendant, and my heart would break to see her sad appearance! ”
"A lot of the kids here want to be train attendants, and that's one of the few ways to get out of Vladivostok." Tiriamots said.
"Can you help Natasha's cute child?" Wang Weidong asked.
After listening to Yao Qiming's translation, Kyriamots looked at Wang Weidong and shrugged his shoulders and shook his head.
In the following days, Wang Weidong met with Pantsev again, and Pantsev brought a group of colleagues to a party with Wang Weidong and Yao Qiming.
After that, Wang Weidong often left Yao Qiming behind and dared to go out to party with Kyriamots and Pantsev alone, and they often sent them back to the committee club very late.
Yao Qiming couldn't figure out how to communicate with those people based on Wang Weidong's Russian proficiency.
"This is the only way to quickly improve your Russian level, and besides, friendship can overcome all obstacles! There are many things that can be communicated without words. Wang Weidong explained.
When the two of them lay down to sleep, Yao Qiming suddenly remembered something.
"Weidong, when we first came here a few days ago, I saw that the two girls serving here were bare-legged and did not wear stockings, but they have both been wearing stockings for the past two days. Did you give them the stockings? Yao Qiming asked.
The heating temperature in the committee club was very high, so the waiters were normally dressed in dresses, that is, bragi.
Hearing Yao Qiming's question, Wang Weidong turned his back to Yao Qiming and pretended not to hear.
Yao Qiming has been a teacher for too long, and he has made a mistake in his dead heart.
"Weidong, did you give them the long-legged stockings they wore?" Yao Qiming broke the casserole and asked to the end.
Wang Weidong really couldn't bear it, he sat up and asked, "Teacher Yao, do you know what it means to be a teacher?" Do you think you're too unreasonable? What is a man staring at a woman's thighs all day long! I warn you, don't do it again in the future, and pay attention to the international impact! ”
After speaking, he lay down and pretended to sleep again, ignoring this old and immodest teacher Yao.
Yao Qiming's face was blushing when he was questioned by Wang Weidong, and he felt that what Wang Weidong said was indeed reasonable.
When he met with Dillamots for the third time, Wang Weidong gave him a delicate electronic watch and told him that it was given to him by his friend in HK, and that it was now being forwarded to Dillaimotz.
Kyriamots liked the gift Wang Weidong gave him, and he felt that this electronic watch was better than the Oriental watch he was wearing.
Two days later, Wang Weidong and Yao Qiming visited Larimov's house again.
Wang Weidong said to Natasha: "Natasha, you will go to the train station tomorrow to find Kyriamots, he will take you to the train station service department, congratulations, you are likely to become a train attendant." ”
Natasha trembled with joy, and her big gray-blue eyes stared at Wang Weidong's face.
She pounced over and hugged Wang Weidong tightly and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wilton!" ”
Beginning at the end of October, fishing boats from hundreds of nautical miles and thousands of nautical miles away rushed back to the harbor.
The 70,000 kilograms of cod that Wang Weidong and Ou Xiaoyang exchanged for seems to be a lot, but in fact, it is only 70 tons, and even two train wagons are not enough to fit, which is only a small part of a fishing boat.
70,000 kilograms of cod were loaded onto a train on November 10 and transported to the city of Fenhe.
Two days later, the cod was transported to Kazakhstan.
"There was a heavy snowfall here two days ago, and the temperature dropped a lot, I have already rented the warehouse, and we will sell it in a month!" Ou Xiaoyang said.
Last year, 10,000 kilograms of cod earned six or seven thousand yuan each, and this year it is 70,000 kilograms, and Ou Xiaoyang plans to earn 50,000 yuan each.
He took Wang Weidong to see the newly rented warehouse, and then hired a car to hire people to load 70,000 kilograms of cod into the warehouse.
got into Ou Xiaoyang's jeep, but Ou Xiaoyang didn't start the car immediately.
"Weidong, Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation has informed us to attend the work summary meeting in a few days." Ou Xiaoyang said.
"We participate in the summary meeting of foreign trade and economic cooperation? Why? Wang Weidong asked.
This foreign trade company is affiliated with foreign trade and economic cooperation, and pays an affiliation fee of 3,000 yuan every year, and the rest has nothing to do with foreign trade and economic cooperation.
Ou Xiaoyang's face was very ugly.
"As soon as people leave, the tea is cold. It seems that my relationship is not very good here, nominally our company is indeed a subsidiary of foreign trade and economic cooperation, let us go to the meeting is to let us go. Ou Xiaoyang said.
"If that's the case, then we're going to shut down the company this year?" Wang Weidong asked.
Ou Xiaoyang started the car, changed gears, and his hand held the gear knob tightly and said: "It's a big deal, I'll ask the old man to make a phone call, and he will do it for two years!" We're going to shut down the company again this time next year. ”
