Hearing the news, Wang Haifu was speechless for a long time in shock, and he didn't have a happy expression at all. Standing up and silently going home alone.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Wang Haifu heard Li Yufeng and a group of old ladies chatting in the courtyard.

Li Yufeng looked elated.

Wang Haifu didn't see anything, didn't hear anything, he walked into the door of the building and went upstairs to his house.

He entered the house with his front foot, and Li Yufeng followed with his back foot.

"Have you heard? Our son Weidong has contracted the entire radio factory! Li Yufeng said happily.

"Old girl, you have long hair and short knowledge, you know a fart!" Wang Haifu said.

"You know a lot! I knew my son's business was getting bigger and bigger! Li Yufeng said.

Wang Haifu lay on the bed and stared at the wall and said to himself: "The bigger the better?" ”

In the evening, Wang Xinjin and Qu Xiaomei both brought back the same news after work.

"It seems that I really have to go to Ussuriysk to farm this time, and the Xiangyang Chemical Plant really can't stay. Today, those workers are making fun of me, saying that I will be the director of the radio factory in the future! Wang Xianjin said.

Her husband's words really spoke to Qu Xiaomei's heart, and her eyes flashed with joy and expectation.

If his brother-in-law Wang Weidong really contracted the entire radio factory, wouldn't it be natural for him and Wang Xianjin to manage the entire factory?

"Go farming, find someone now, and go! Weidong won't give you two a place in the factory. Wang Haifu said.

These days, Wang Haifu and Li Yufeng persuaded Wang Xianjin to go to the farm in Ussuriysk to farm, but Wang Xianjin never agreed, but this time when the news came, Wang Xianjin offered to leave.

In the evening, the factory leaders accompanied Shi Ke to Wang Haifu's house.

"Comrade Haifu, you are an old worker of our Xiangyang Chemical Factory, if you count Weidong, your family is already the third generation. Now that our factory is in temporary difficulty, I feel as uncomfortable as you. Of course, as leaders, we don't do our jobs well, and we have a great responsibility. Shi Ke said.

"I'm just an old worker, I don't understand anything, I do whatever the organization asks me to do, and I've been like this all these years." Wang Haifu said.

"This time, after my persuasion, Wei Dong came back and took over the entire radio factory. It can solve the work problems of 3,000 workers, so that they can work and get paid. I have already explained in a meeting with the cadres in the factory that we must let them fully support Weidong's work and not stumble! Shi Ke said.

"I still remember the late 70s, early 80s, when your stone factory director was in our Xiangyang Chemical Factory, and that was also the best time for our chemical factory. Workers have increased their wages every year and their benefits are high, but how did they become what they are now? Wang Haifu muttered.

"Comrade Haifu, we can only look forward, we must believe that the future is bright, the temporary setbacks are nothing, we always have to overcome difficulties and continue to move forward!" Shi Ke said.

Wang Haifu felt that what Shi Wei said was all clichés and empty words, and had no real meaning.

In the days that followed, Wang Haifu hardly went out and stayed at home. One reason is that he does not want to see the flattering smiles of his former co-workers, who are inseparable from him, so that in the future they can let their own children enter the radio factory and have a job to earn money. Another reason is that Wang Haifu has to wait at home for Wang Weidong to come back, and he has a lot to say to Wang Weidong.

On the fifth day after Shi Ke's visit to his home, Wang Weidong returned to the Xiangyang Chemical Factory.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard of his house, a group of women, including his mother Li Yufeng, surrounded him.

"Weidong, you are what I grew up watching, and in the future, my second boy will work under you, you take care of him a little more!" A woman said with a smile.

Another woman took Wang Weidong's hand and said, "I have seen that you are a good kid since I was a child, and I am thinking about marrying the daughter of the family to you!" I didn't expect Lao Chen's silent start to be quite fast! You recruit Xiaoqin into the radio factory and let her follow you in the future! ”

Wang Weidong finally got rid of the entanglement of the women and walked into the house.

Wang Haifu had already seen this scene upstairs through the window.

Wang Haifu took out a cigarette and handed it to Wang Weidong and asked, "Weidong, have you ever seen a white-haired girl?" ”

"Of course I've seen it, not only feature films, but also ballet." Wang Weidong replied.

The story of the white-haired girl has not only been made into feature films, but also made into movies in the form of ballet.

At that time, the spiritual life was very poor, and there were very few movies to watch. Wang Weidong has watched the movie White-Haired Girl several times.

"What do you think of Huang Shiren?" Wang Haifu took a puff of his cigarette and asked.

"It's really wrong for Huang Shiren to snatch Yang Bailao's girl Xi'er back to his house, but, however, it's not right for Yang Bailao not to pay back." Wang Weidong replied.

"Yes, when Yang Bailao borrowed money, Huang Shiren was a good person in his eyes! But when Huang Shiren asked him for a debt, he became a yellow pickpocket! It's really not good to ask for accounts at home during the New Year, but Yang Bailao, an old guy, usually doesn't go home in order to avoid debts. Usury is indeed hateful, but seeing Yang Bailao poor, even if he only repays the principal, he may not be able to pay it back. Do you want Huang Shiren to write off the debts owed by Yang Bailao? Wang Haifu said with a puff of cigarette.

Wang Weidong smacked the taste from Wang Haifu's words.

"Dad, do you mean that I am Huang Shiren?" Wang Weidong asked.

"It doesn't matter if you say it yourself whether you are Huang Shiren or not, others say that you are Huang Shiren, then you are Huang Shiren! Others say that you are Zhou Papi, then you are Zhou Papi! Wang Haifu said.

"I know you're pointing to the radio factory under the Yanghua Plant. I thought so, I tried to recruit as many older workers as possible, let them work in the factory for a few years and then retire, and after a few years, I slowly closed the factory, and those who didn't want to leave the factory could take them to the factory in the south to continue working. Wang Weidong said.

"I told you the story of Huang Shiren and Yang Bailao just to tell you that from ancient times to the present, Huang Shiren has never ended well! The taste of the local lord's old wealth is not good! I'm from that era, and I've seen it with my own eyes! You have to pay attention, most of the workers in the factory are still simple and willing to work, there are many skilled and learned people, and there are many capable people in a state-owned factory of 10,000 people, but there is no place to play! Be careful, and take as much as you can in the future. Wang Haifu finally said.
