Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

Suifeng Hotel.

Deng Yunheng ate the Bobai flavor that he had not seen for a long time. He finished three large bowls of rice in a row before he put down the bowl comfortably and said, "After eating again and again, the food from my hometown is still delicious!"

Deng Yunsong, who had put down his bowl long ago, smiled and said: "Second brother, there should be a lot of delicacies in this capital. You haven't eaten the flavors of your hometown for a long time, so you feel like this. After you eat more meals at home, I guess you will I’m starting to miss the food in Beijing! ”

"That's the truth. No matter how delicious the food is, it won't taste good if you eat too much, so you have to change the food frequently."

Having said this, Deng Yunheng took a sip of tea, then looked at his sister and said, "Sister, while it's still early, can you call out my future brother-in-law and let me meet him?"

She has been looking after the house for a while now, so Deng Yunzhen will not be shy about her future brother-in-law's call. She calmly replied: "He led a team to the countryside to handle official business today, and he probably hasn't come back yet!"

Deng Yunheng said with some disappointment: "That's quite unfortunate."

"I want to see Director Zhu, and I can do so tomorrow. Yunheng, you'd better tell us about your participation in the National Day military parade!"

Deng Yuntai took over and said: "We saw it on TV that day. You and your classmates raised the banner to greet Mr. Deng. The scene was really exciting. Many diners in our hotel couldn't help but cheer loudly! "

Deng Yunsong said: "Yes, second brother, you were so handsome back then!"

Deng Shirong was also very curious about his second son's experience. After all, such an opportunity was too rare. Being able to participate in such a historical event was something that many people could brag about for a lifetime.

Other relatives, including Mr. Zhang Guangzong, were also curious about Deng Yunheng's experience.

So Deng Yunheng told some details about his participation in the military parade and the origin of the banner greeting Duke Deng, which made everyone look forward to it.

After talking about National Day, Deng Yunheng looked at his father and said, "Dad, I am now the vice president of the student union."

Deng Shirong's eyes lit up when he heard this. If it was that kind of pheasant university, then being the president of the student union would be nothing, let alone just a vice president. But being the vice president of the student union at Peking University is not an easy task, no matter in this era or in future generations.

"Yun Heng, you will graduate next year and officially join the workforce. Now that you have been practicing in the student union for more than a year, do you have any ideas about your work arrangements after graduation? Should you decide to go into politics or choose to go into business?"

When everyone else heard this, they all looked at Deng Yunheng.

Regarding this question, Deng Yunheng has thought about it clearly for more than a year. He replied firmly: "Dad, I have thought about it clearly. After graduation, I plan to enter politics. I found that I am more interested in being an official than doing business."

The choice of the second son was actually what Deng Shirong wanted to see.

To be honest, when he was reborn in this life, the family was destined not to be short of money. The second son chose to go into business, which at most would only increase the family's wealth. But in fact, after people achieve financial freedom, their wealth will increase. The increase is just a number and does not mean much.

But if the second son chooses to enter politics, a high official will probably be born in the family.

Our country has been official-oriented since ancient times. The social status of an official is always higher than that of a wealthy person (don’t compare billionaires to village chiefs, such a comparison is meaningless). Therefore, if a high-ranking official is born in the family, That is to be rich and powerful, which is naturally better than simply being rich.

Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, the third son will continue to pursue a career in politics in this life. In this way, it is better for the two brothers to support each other than to fight alone.

But then again, although Deng Shirong hopes that his second son will choose to go into politics, he is a little entangled in his heart, because the risks of going into politics are not comparable to those in business. In business, as long as you do your business honestly and don't engage in such crooked ways, Even if you fail, it's a big deal and you have to start over again. It's not a big deal.

But being in politics is different. To describe it as Bubu Jingxin is not an exaggeration at all.

Of course, if you don't seek advancement and just want to be a small leader at a low level and get by with your dead salary, then naturally you don't have to face all kinds of risks.

"Yun Heng, the path to politics is not that easy. You have to face all kinds of difficulties and dangers. Are you sure you have thought clearly about it?"

"Make sure you think clearly!"

Deng Shirong nodded and said: "Now that you have thought it through, then do it according to your ideas. I have only one request for you, and that is to be a good official, a good official who wholeheartedly seeks happiness for the people. "

Deng Yunheng solemnly responded: "Dad, don't worry, I won't let you down!" His father is the leader of the clan and is leading the whole clan to make a fortune. Naturally, he wants to follow his father's example. Once he becomes an official, he will also lead his subordinates. people on the road to prosperity.

Deng Yuntai asked: "Yunheng, I heard that those who come out to work at Peking University are at least township chief level. Is that true?"

Deng Yunheng smiled and said: "If you choose to work at the grassroots level, the starting level will indeed not be lower than that of the township chief."

Zhang Guangzong was filled with emotion when he heard this: "To be an official, you must be a cultural person!"

Deng Yunzhen deeply agreed with Grandpa Zhang's words. Her fiancé Zhu Junjie risked his life and went to the battlefield and achieved second-class merit. He also had a high school education. His performance was quite outstanding and he was appreciated by the leader. So many Adding all the factors together, he became a deputy director in the Public Security Bureau after changing his career, which was only at the same level as the township chief.

And her younger brother, who went out of school to work, is at this level.

The value of Peking University is really frightening.

After being confirmed by his brother himself, Deng Yuntai was also filled with emotion and sincerely happy for his brother. He said cheerfully: "Yunheng, when you start working next year, won't I have a brother who is the mayor? This is too much to say. It’s so respectable!”

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

After chatting for a while, Deng Yunheng asked: "Dad, generally speaking, when we graduate and join the workforce, our superiors will ask for our opinions. Do you think I should join the central ministries and commissions, provincial agencies in each province, or municipal units in big cities?" , or is it better to go directly to the grassroots level?”

Only the best Peking University students of this era dare to say this.

Although Deng Shirong was just a common man, his third son was a division-level cadre in his previous life, and he had some knowledge in this area. When his second son asked, he said based on his understanding: "Join the ministry. If you are in a government agency, the advantage is that you can be promoted faster, and the work is not as hard as at the grassroots level. The disadvantage is that without working experience at the grassroots level, it is impossible to move to a higher position.

The advantage of working at the grassroots level is that the stage is large and there are many opportunities. This is the only way for cadres to become talents.

As the saying goes, practice makes talents and experience makes talents. Only by undergoing training at the grassroots level, deeply understanding the sufferings of the masses, and striving to improve the ability to deal with practical problems can one grow into a qualified cadre.

The disadvantage is that the work at the grassroots level is relatively difficult, and the road from the grassroots to the top is extremely difficult.

Therefore, my suggestion is to advance to the ministries and commissions, wait until you are promoted to the grassroots level, and then start directly from the county level. This may be better.

Of course, this is just my personal opinion. I don’t know much about officialdom. You can only use it as a reference. You can also ask your tutor or classmates who have elders in politics at home to learn more about it and then combine it with your own. to choose according to the actual situation. "

Deng Yunheng nodded repeatedly after hearing this. His father was just a common man. It was already remarkable to have such knowledge. He said, "Okay, I understand!"

Deng Shirong warned again: "If you choose to work at the grassroots level, never choose your hometown. You have to remember this."

Deng Yunheng said in surprise: "Dad, why is this?"

Deng Shirong said: "Bobai's job is not easy to do, especially the family planning area. If you come back to work and take care of this area, it will be difficult to achieve results, so you can choose to work anywhere, but you can't choose Bobai."

Zhang Guangzong couldn't help but interjected: "You really have to listen to your father. We Bobai people have strong clan ideas and must have sons. You know the culture of having a son. Not only is it difficult to achieve results in family planning here, but it is also very difficult for others to do." Hate, there is really no need to go back to work at Bobai.”

Deng Yunheng thought about the atmosphere in the village and said with great approval: "That's true. If I work at the grassroots level, I won't reply to Bobai!"

…

Noon the next day.

Deng Yunheng finally met his future brother-in-law.

Looking at the handsome Director Zhu, Deng Yunheng was still satisfied. No wonder he was recognized by his sister and his father. He was the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau at a young age. He was good-looking and was indeed an excellent candidate.

After greeting each other, Zhu Junjie said with a smile on his face: "I have heard about you from your sister a long time ago. Speaking of which, we are still schoolmates. I am from Class 17 of Songshan High School."

Deng Yunheng smiled and said: "It's quite a coincidence, but we were in the same commune before and it's not surprising that we went to the same high school."

Zhu Junjie nodded and said: "Isn't it strange? I just admire you so much. In a school like Songshan High School, you were able to get into Peking University. When I heard your sister talk about it, I was shocked and couldn't believe it. of."

Deng Yunheng understood the other party's surprise. Before him, no student from Songshan High School had ever been admitted to a key university, let alone the top Peking University. This created the school's history and was to be written into the school's history.

The two were genuine alumni, and both parties also wanted to get close, so naturally they became familiar with each other very quickly.

After Zhu Junjie went to work, Deng Yunheng said to his sister: "Sister, it seems that Director Zhu is really good and worthy of you."

Deng Yunzhen said with a smile: "I just benefited from my father and your younger brother, otherwise I wouldn't be worthy of him."

Deng Yunheng said: "Sister, don't say that. Others don't know how good you are. Don't I, the younger brother, also know? Director Zhu can marry you back. It is definitely a blessing that the old Zhu family has cultivated in eight lifetimes." ”

He didn't just say this. In Deng Yunheng's eyes, his sister was the most typical good wife and mother. Anyone who married her would be his blessing.

Deng Yunzhen smiled and said nothing. In the eyes of her family, she was naturally the best, but she knew her own business. She had to have education or not, and looks or not. If she didn't rely on her parents and brothers, how could she compare to her? Young and promising Director Zhu!

Of course she didn't know that the character of a good wife and loving mother was the most precious thing.

A good girl will prosper for three generations, but a fierce woman will destroy a clan. This is really not just talk.

Once a man marries a woman who has a bad temper, refuses to give him face no matter what the occasion, and frequently makes trouble at home, it will be extremely difficult for him to succeed in his career, and there may even be no possibility of success at all.

I won’t go into the general truth. I believe anyone who has been there understands the importance of having a good wife at home.

…

The twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Deng Shirong and others took Bu Zhongshi's large truck home to celebrate the New Year.

Since there were not many cars in this era, traffic supervision was not as strict as in later generations. This was also the main reason for the crazy overloading of those buses.

As long as a large truck like Bu Zhongshi is not mixed with people and goods, even if it is full of people, it can go anywhere and it will be fine. The traffic supervision station will not control it.

On the way home, Deng Shirong felt that it was time to arrange his own car!

After arriving home, after resting for a few minutes, Bu Dashi, Liu Aihong, Zhang Xiuping, and Deng Yunzhen were busy lighting a fire to cook.

Liang Yuqing, who was here for the first time, also wanted to help in the kitchen, but was stopped by Deng Shirong, who said, "Teacher Liang, just let them do it. It's your first time at home, let Azhu show you around."

Deng Yunzhu smiled and said: "Second cousin, let me show you around!"

Liang Yuqing smiled and nodded: "Okay then!"

So, Liang Yuqing, led by Deng Yunzhu, began to visit her family's house.

Although it is already 1985, the blue brick and large tile houses are not as unique as a few years ago, but several large blue brick and tile houses are connected together. Such a scale is extremely rare in the countryside.

Moreover, each house is not only fully furnished, but also equipped with an independent bathroom. This layout made Liang Yuqing, who grew up in the county town, highly praised.

After visiting the house, Liang Yuqing asked: "Azhu, I heard from your cousin that you are currently studying at Songshan High School. How is your academic performance?"

Deng Yunzhu said sheepishly: "Second cousin, my academic performance is average, and my ranking in the class is also below average. It will be good if I can finish high school."

Liang Yuqing smiled and said: "We girls have a high school diploma, so we can be considered good at it!"

Deng Yunzhu nodded and said: "That's true. Take our village as an example. Many girls don't even finish elementary school. There are very few who can go to junior high school, let alone high school. I also went to high school before. I stopped studying after elementary school, but my father persuaded me again before I went back to study.”

Liang Yuqing didn't expect this to happen. She said with emotion: "My uncle still has the vision. Fortunately, you listened to my uncle and went back to school again. Graduating from elementary school is really different from graduating from high school!"

Deng Yunzhu said with a smile: "I know, I didn't understand before. At that time, the girls in the village would stop studying after a few years. My academic performance was never good, so I dropped out of school with them. Now that I think about it, I still Quite silly."

Liang Yuqing said: "You are completely different now that you are in high school. What are your plans after you graduate?"

Deng Yunzhu shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about what will happen after graduation for the time being. I'll just listen to my dad's arrangements then!"

Liang Yuqing said: "It would be best if you can get into a technical secondary school, college or university. If you really can't get into it, I suggest you go to the normal school in our county for two years. After graduation, you can go to elementary school. Probationary teachers can be converted into regular primary school teachers after passing the one-year trial, which is actually quite good.”

Deng Yunzhu said with a smile: "Second cousin, how can I be a teacher if I can't study well?"

Liang Yuqing smiled and said: "You can't say that. Among our current teachers, many have lower academic qualifications than you, because the normal school in our county absorbs students from several aspects, including junior high school graduates and high school graduates. Graduates are even recruited from private teachers.

No matter how you say it, you are also a high school graduate, and you are already a highly educated person. I also went to a normal school to continue my studies after graduating from high school. "

Deng Yunzhu knew that her second cousin-in-law had good intentions when she told her this. Although she was not interested, she did not reject it directly. She just nodded and said, "Okay, I'll remember it. We'll talk about it after I graduate. If my dad is right by then, If I have no other arrangements, I will consider whether to continue studying in a normal school.”

Liang Yuqing smiled and said: "Actually, being a teacher is quite good. Teaching primary school students is not stressful, and there are many vacations. I don't know how many people envy me to have a summer vacation and a winter vacation."

Deng Yunzhu said: "Teachers do have the most holidays."

While the two were chatting, Deng Yunheng also chatted with the villagers.

The villagers all watched the previous National Day military parade on TV. Deng Yunheng and other students held up banners, which allowed him to gain a few precious seconds of footage. This experience not only made him look good, but also made the whole village and even The whole clan followed suit and grew faces.

To brag, you don't necessarily have to be awesome to brag. If your relatives, friends or even tribesmen are awesome, you can also brag about it.

Now the villagers are asking Deng Yunheng for some details about his participation in the National Day military parade, so that when they talk to others about it in the future, the villagers can brag about it.

Soon, Bu Dashi and others prepared the meals, and at this time the villagers left with unsatisfied intentions.

After having a sumptuous meal, Bu Dafang's family of three, as well as Bu Dashi and his wife, took the New Year's goods given by their uncle and left in the big truck of their younger brother Bu Zhongshi.

…

The twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, noon.

Bangba Village.

Deng Changxiong’s family is eating fried cassava rice.

The diet of the entire Shuangwang Realm for nearly a hundred years has consisted of three meals a day of porridge with taro, sweet potato, cassava and other grains. Generally, porridge is eaten in the morning and evening, and grains are eaten at noon.

Nowadays, with the improvement of living standards, many people have begun to eat the most important meal in the evening. However, this habit of eating porridge in the morning and cereals at noon has been maintained until the late 1990s. There has been a change.

But what has changed in later generations is the meal of cereals at noon, and the porridge in the morning has not changed. It has long been a habit.

"Dad, the clan leader sent someone to inform that in addition to student aid awards, there are also very important things to discuss at today's clan meeting. What do you think it is? Is Tenglong Passenger Transport Company going to pay dividends?" The questioner asked Deng Changxiong’s eldest son, Deng Siji, is eighteen years old this year.

Si Ji's mother immediately became energetic after hearing this.

Their family has invested a lot of money in Tenglong Passenger Transport Company. The number of shares they own is second only to the clan head and Deng Changbao of Jimaoling Village. Naturally, they are more concerned about the company's dividend issue. After all, it is a lot of money!

During the Spring Festival last year, the company made more than 400,000 yuan. On average, one share cost about 150 yuan. The family owned a total of 22 shares, which was 3,300 yuan.

Of course, all the money I earned during the Spring Festival last year and this year was invested in buying a car.

The company even took out a loan from the bank.

However, the company now has 1.5 times more buses than last year. It is said that during the Spring Festival, the company earns more than 20,000 yuan every day. It is estimated that it can earn millions in one Spring Festival. This is not a small amount.

On average, one share can be divided into about 380 yuan, and their 22 shares can be divided into more than 8,000 yuan.

Of course she was interested in such a large amount of money.

Deng Changxiong shook his head and said: "The clan leader will definitely talk about the company's dividend issue, but this time the clan leader said there are important things to discuss, so it should be referring to other things."

Si Ji's mother asked: "Do you think the company will pay dividends after this Spring Festival run?"

Deng Changxiong said uncertainly: "There should be dividends, right? It depends on whether the clan leader has any other plans!"

Deng Siji responded: "It's possible that I will keep it and continue to buy a car!"

Deng Changxiong said: "We will know the specific situation when we go to the clan meeting later. You can go and listen when you have nothing to do."

…

In the entire village where the Naye Deng family was located, after having lunch, the tribesmen from each village gathered together and began to rush towards the Naye Deng family's ancestral hall.

Along the way, the tribesmen were talking a lot, and they were all guessing what the tribe leader said about important matters to discuss.

In addition to speculating on this matter, the one that everyone discussed the most was Tenglong Passenger Transport Company.

After the arrival of the Spring Festival, with the surge in passengers, some tribesmen have come back and said that the company's daily profits are now no less than 25,000 yuan. This huge profit makes the tribesmen who heard it feel happy.

Tribesmen who have read a lot of books have already calculated it. If we calculate it based on the income during the Spring Festival, even if we only bought 1 share, we would have earned almost 10 yuan at the end of the day.

10 yuan a day may not sound like much, but you have to remember that it is only 1985, and many employees in public institutions do not earn 50 yuan a month. This comparison shows how high this income is.

What's more, except for a very few people, who doesn't have two or three shares in the company?

You don't have to do anything on this day to earn twenty or thirty yuan, which makes anyone happy for a long time.
