Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Chapter 51 The Red Age is Coming

"Can you say that?"

After hearing what Commander Qian said, Zhou Tian's hands holding the medals and money trembled, and he almost threw the money and medals away. He looked at the other soldiers carefully and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

The soldiers did not say anything, and it was obvious that they agreed with Chief Qian's words.

Seeing Zhou Tian's cautious look, the middle-aged soldier spoke again: "Maybe you don't understand what Lao Qian said, but you will know the use of military medals in the future!"

"Okay, now that everyone has seen it and the reward has been given, let's go. By the way, Lao Qian, don't tell this kid about other things, in case they get leaked out!"

As he spoke, he and several others stood up, walked to Zhou Tian's side, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Boy, I'm counting on you, do a good job!"

After saying that, he took a few people out of Zhou Tian's house and walked out of the courtyard.

Zhou Tian was somewhat confused by what the middle-aged man in military uniform said, and he turned to look at Chief Qian who was still sitting on the chair.

"Why, kid, don't you understand?"

Facing Zhou Tian's gaze, Chief Qian lit a cigarette and asked while blowing smoke rings.

Zhou Tian was even more confused by Chief Qian's words, and continued to look at Chief Qian without knowing what was going on.

"Okay, okay, why are you so stupid when you should be smart? The old squad leader's meaning was so obvious just now, but you still haven't guessed it. I don't know if it's wrong or right for me to praise you for being smart in front of the old squad leader?"

Being looked at by Zhou Tian made him a little nervous. Chief Qian gave a helpless bitter smile and explained: "The higher-ups are planning to split the Ministry of Heavy Industry into two, the First and Second Machinery Ministry, and the old squad leader is the one who was assigned by the higher-ups to manage the First Machinery Ministry. Do you understand?"

"what?"

Zhou Tian was immediately stunned by Chief Qian's words.

He knew about the splitting of the Ministry of Heavy Industry. After all, according to his memories from his previous life, in order to concentrate its efforts on industry and to better subdivide and plan the development of industry in the past few years, the First and Second Ministry of Machine Building would be established this year. In the next few years, six more machinery ministries were established one after another.

The First Ministry of Machine Building was responsible for civil machinery, telecommunications and ships, while the Second Ministry of Machine Building was responsible for weapons, tanks and the aviation industry.

But although he knew it, he didn't think that such a big event had anything to do with a small person like him. But now he had contacted the Minister of the First Ministry of Machine Building in advance, which really made him flattered.

If what Chief Qian said was correct, then the middle-aged soldier just now would become the head of the Ministry of First Machine Building.

Would he also become the emperor of all the factories in the city? Now that he had established a connection with the other party through Chief Qian, didn't that mean he had found another golden thigh?

Of course, he could only think about these questions in his own mind. He didn't dare to say them in front of Chief Qian.

However, when he saw Chief Qian's slightly melancholy expression, he couldn't help but ask, "What about you, Chief?"

When Chief Qian heard Zhou Tian's words, he nodded in satisfaction. He felt that this boy was very righteous. He smiled and said, "Thanks to you, I was going to return to the army after the military control committee was dissolved at the end of this year. However, after this meritorious service, my relationship with the railway has also been transferred! From now on, I will be a railway worker!"

As he said this, he couldn't help but laugh. Even he felt that this incident was a little unexpected.

Unfortunately, there were many things he couldn't tell Zhou Tian. He might have to repay this boy's favor in the future. After all, if it weren't for this incident, he wouldn't have been able to stay in Sijiu City.

The two chatted for a while, and Chief Qian stood up and prepared to leave. Zhou Tian sent Chief Qian to the outside of the courtyard, watched him get in the car and leave, then turned around and walked back into the courtyard.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, he saw many people looking at him with strange eyes. He was startled for a moment, and then he suddenly understood.

However, he did not intend to say much to these people. Just as he was about to walk towards the central courtyard, he was stopped by Yan Bugui.

"Xiaotian, what did those leaders of the Military Control Commission want to talk to you about?"

Yan Bugui asked with a gleam in his eyes.

"fine!"

Zhou Tian shook his head and ignored him. He walked through the moon gate in the front yard and headed towards the middle courtyard.

"Hey?"

Yan Bugui looked at Zhou Tian's back and reached out his hand to call him back, but when he thought of the seriousness of the situation, he stopped and swallowed the words in his mouth.

He didn't expect that Zhou Tian actually knew the leader of the Military Control Commission, and he instantly became more determined to make friends with the Zhou family.

When Zhou Tian walked into the central courtyard, he naturally attracted the attention of all the neighbors in Zhongyuan. However, they also knew that Zhou Tian tried to keep a distance from them on weekdays, so they did not dare to stop him like Yan Bugui did.

Only He Daqing, who was standing at the door, smiled and nodded at Zhou Tian.

Zhou Tian also responded to He Daqing and walked towards his home in the backyard without raising his head.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw my younger brother and sister coming down from upstairs. They all looked sleepy, probably because they were woken up by the voices of several soldiers.

"Brother, did anyone come to our house just now?"

The second brother asked with a frown as he watched his eldest brother just walk in.

"Yes, you have really sharp ears. How come I woke you up?"

Zhou Tian smiled and picked up his little sister, teasing her.

"Ok!"

The second brother nodded and said that he heard a lot of people laughing upstairs just now.

"Okay, now that you're awake, wash your face and wake up!"

As Zhou Tian said this, he put the little sister down in his arms and asked Sanxiao to wash her face. After Sanxiao finished washing her face and woke up, he went upstairs to continue doing his homework.

To be honest, Zhou Tian never worried about his younger siblings' studies. Not only because Sanxiao was very self-motivated in his studies, but also because of Zhou Tian's deliberate guidance.

His younger brothers and sisters are still young now. Although they are sensible, they are not mentally mature yet. They need him, as the eldest brother, to set an example so that they can believe what he says.

When everything was quiet, Zhou Tian had time to savor what Chief Qian had just said. At the same time, he also vaguely felt that a storm was about to hit.

"It looks like the steel mill will be busy next year!"

As he spoke, he sighed slightly, and in an instant the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, full of anticipation and excitement for the upcoming bright era.
