"Brother-in-law, no, Brother Zhou, drink and forget about those sad things." Lin Zhiyuan could only raise his glass in embarrassment, "Brother Zhou, what are you doing now? Why did you drive a taxi?"

Lin Zhiyuan looked through the window and saw the brand-new Lada taxi parked in front of the hotel. Zhou Hai drove here just now.

"Brother, although I am a stinky worker, I am also a respectable person in a large factory. Now that something embarrassing happened to my family, I no longer have the shame to stay in the factory, so I gritted my teeth and applied for a leave of absence without pay. Last month I went to Ice City and bought a Lada in partnership with my brother. Brother, my brother is not very capable. If you want to use a car in the future, just talk to me." Zhou Hai is a very particular person.It's been almost three months since Qiu Derui and Wei Qian's incident, and he can still remember Lin Zhiyuan's goodness.

This alone shows that this person is a friend worth keeping.

Lin Zhiyuan changed the subject, "Brother Zhou, have you practiced? I think you were very professional when you hit Qiu Derui twice."

"Hahaha, brother, you can see it. I practiced martial arts for a few days in the sports school when I was a child, and a few people couldn't get close to me. To tell you the truth, if I hadn't exchanged the old for the young, I would have replaced my father in the leather steel factory. Worker, I am now a big stick in Ge'an. For example, the old soldiers who are very powerful on the streets of Ge'an now, I have fought against them all, and they were all defeated by me."

Zhou Hai drank another glass of beer in one gulp, "Brother, that's why I want to thank you. If you hadn't hugged me that day, I would have beaten Qiu Derui to death, and now we wouldn't be able to sit at the same table and drink. "

"No wonder!" Lin Zhiyuan finally understood why Zhou Hai was so grateful to him.

The two of them drank for more than three hours, from six o'clock to nine o'clock in the evening, and continued until the small restaurant closed.

The two had another fight while settling the accounts.

Lin Zhiyuan felt guilty towards Zhou Hai and didn't want him to spend money, but Zhou Hai took out a pile of five and ten yuan bills from his pocket, waved them and said with a smile: "Brother, please don't rob me. Now that I'm driving a taxi, I can earn as much as a month's salary in a few days, so I have to pay for this meal."

In the 80s, taxi driving was a high-paying industry in Gian. Because cars were rare and expensive, taking a taxi was a luxury at the time.

In an era when the per capita income was less than [-] yuan, a taxi cost at least [-] yuan, and if the gas price was cheap, it was like it was free.

At that time, everyone who owned cars became rich.

The two said goodbye at the door of the hotel. Zhou Hai told Lin Zhiyuan a phone number, "Brother, this is my brother's home phone number. If you use the car, just call this number. I recognize you as my brother, and we will be together forever." "

******

Early the next morning, Lin Zhiyuan went to the factory.

Today is a big day for the dismantling of the meritorious rolling mill, so Lin Zhiyuan has to arrive early.

But when he appeared at the door of the soaking workshop, he was shocked.

In the cool October morning, there were thirty or forty gray-haired old men standing at the door. Shi Maocai and Qian Youfu were chatting with these people.

Qian Youfu turned around and saw Lin Zhiyuan, beckoning him over, "Da Lin, these are retired workers who used to work in our soaking workshop. They heard that the meritorious rolling mill was to be dismantled today, and they insisted on coming to see them off."

When he said these words, Qian Yongfu's voice trembled a little, and Lin Zhiyuan fell silent.

He understood the feelings of Qian Youfu and these old workers towards the meritorious rolling mill. How many 35 years does a person have in his life?

For them to say goodbye today is more like attending a memorial service to commemorate their youth that will never return.

When it was almost eight o'clock, a Hongqi car drove into the hot rolling mill, and Su Qiancheng came again.

As soon as he got off the car, he was surrounded by the old workers. Su Qiancheng seemed very happy to hear these people calling him one by one as the old factory director. He could accurately call every old worker present by name.

Lin Zhiyuan stood not far away, observing Su Qiancheng.Lin Zhiyuan somewhat admired this legendary former general manager of Le Gang, at least his memory was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Su Qiancheng also saw Lin Zhiyuan. He remembered the joke he made with his granddaughter last night, and happily called Lin Zhiyuan over, "Xiao Linzi, will you do it yourself when you dismantle the rolling mill? Remember to be gentle and don't do it." Broke it.”

What Su Qiancheng said was very funny, which made the old workers at the scene laugh out loud. The originally dull atmosphere was diluted a lot.

Qian Youfu said: "Da Lin, I'm afraid you don't know yet. The meritorious rolling mill was installed under the old factory director's tenure."

Su Qiancheng was very emotional, "I installed it myself 35 years ago, and 35 years later I saw it being dismantled with my own eyes. This can be considered a beginning and an end!"

Rumble!

Several maintenance workers removed the screws of the meritorious rolling mill, and Yao Cuilan drove the overhead crane to lift away the parts of the meritorious rolling mill.

It is said that the installation of this meritorious rolling mill took a week, but the disassembly only took one morning.

These parts were neatly placed in the open space at the entrance of the uniform heating workshop. The old workers lowered their heads around them, and some even shed tears.

Shi Maocai and Qian Youfu have been persuading them, "If the old ones don't go away and the new ones don't come in, it's already remarkable that a machine can run for 35 years."

One of them, Master Wang, who was already [-] years old, wiped his tears and said, "Little Qian, I understand the truth, but I just can't bear to part with it. I can't bear the thought of this rolling mill being recycled as scrap metal."

"Why do we need to reheat it?" Lin Zhiyuan's voice sounded behind these old masters. "We can build a museum, yes, the Leather Steel Museum. We can reinstall this rolling mill and put it in the museum to tell future generations about the predecessors of Leather Steel. How they used to work, how many industrial miracles they created, how much steel was rolled out by this meritorious rolling mill..."

"Say it again!" Su Qiancheng suddenly became excited. He pressed Lin Zhiyuan's shoulders in a daze, "Say what you just said again."

Lin Zhiyuan looked at these somewhat cloudy eyes and tried to speak as calmly as possible, "Mr. Su, what I mean is that we can build a museum and put the machines, documents, and photos related to our leather steel in it. The masters can go to the museum and take a look at the machines they used to operate. Moreover, they can use this museum as a base for patriotism and enterprise love. In the future, our leather steel party and league joining ceremonies can also be held in the museum. .”

"Xiao Linzi, you are really a genius." Su Qiancheng laughed heartily.

In fact, he was in a very bad mood today. His chatting and laughing with these old masters just now were all just an act.But after hearing Lin Zhiyuan's suggestion to build a museum, the old man was really happy.

He even thought about what he should do in the next few years, yes, this museum.

He wants to build this museum with his own hands and put everything related to leather steel into it, so that future generations will know how much contribution such a great enterprise has made to the country.
