Siheyuan: Returning to 61 to collect waste

The rebuilt area was used to sell food and fresh vegetables, and the original food sales location was transformed into a new comprehensive department store. At this time, the commercial ** could compete with the state-owned shopping malls in Beijing in terms of sales and categories. It was only in terms of area that it was insufficient, but it could compete with them in other aspects.

Wei Dong, the manager of the First Department Store, and the manager of the Second Department Store both suffered an unexpected disaster and were called to the office by the head office and scolded for more than an hour. The two department stores representing the face of Beijing were defeated by the business leaders, leaving them speechless.

The business leader not only gained fame in the capital, but also established a prominent reputation in the whole of China. Many people who went to the capital for business or tourism would come here to buy some popular goods or local specialties to take home.

In addition to exclusively supplying the commercial specialty alarm clocks, transistor radios, sewing machine boosters and relatively unpopular solar water heaters, the "Erdian" brand flour produced by the flour processing workshop of the Second Electronics Factory has also become its flagship product. Because the "Erdian" flour has a better color, many people go to the commercial department to buy it, which makes many supply and marketing cooperatives quite dissatisfied, but they can't do anything about it. After all, Ye Chuan is a popular figure in the supply and marketing general cooperative and the material recycling company, and he is also the highest-ranking director in the grassroots supply and marketing cooperative, and his status even exceeds some leaders of the supply and marketing general cooperative and the material recycling company.

If Ye Chuan had not intended to work for a higher-level unit, he could have entered the core management of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative with his qualifications and achievements. However, in recent years, Ye Chuan has been very low-key. Since the launch of the "Erdian" flour, he has not launched any new products.

Even so, the production of solar water heaters continued to increase steadily, and special sales counters were set up in commercial buildings and two department stores. The flour processing equipment of the "Second Electronics Factory" was also successfully copied in mid-1965, allowing the flour processing workshop of the Second Electronics Factory to be expanded to have three production lines, which created nearly one-third of the factory's output value and became an important source of income.

Under Ye Chuan's planning, the commercial department gradually established its own management system, and this model made it impossible for other supply and marketing cooperatives to follow suit. Especially the management of second-hand home appliances, no one could copy it. During this period, Zhao Ji was promoted to deputy director with dual positions, Han Pangzi was appointed as the person in charge of the business point, and Han Lifen continued to be in charge of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Ye Chuan usually traveled between the Commercial Bank and the Second Electronics Factory. When he was away, Zhao Ji took over the management tasks. Because he was well aware of the situation after 1966, he chose to keep a low profile and focus on benefiting from some products of the Second Electronics Factory. Under his prompts and guidance, people around him behaved quite low-key, especially the Second Electronics Factory, which was an industrial model, and its director, Director Sun.

Over the years, the most common thing that Director Sun heard was to keep a low profile. This has been deeply integrated into his style of doing things. Sometimes when attending meetings of ministries and committees, facing those factory directors whose performance is not as good as his, his attitude is always very humble. Whether passing cigarettes or communicating, he always smiles and is polite.

As far as business leaders are concerned, the sentence Ye Chuan said most to Zhao Ji was to pay attention to the quality of service. Since there were no fake goods at that time, service was its core competitiveness.

This evaluation standard has long been firmly engraved in the hearts of the commercial ** employees. Whether they are experienced old employees or new members who have joined in recent years, they all put service first. At present, the total number of employees of the commercial ** has exceeded 200, and this number is not much less than that of the commercial ** itself, which is a very rare phenomenon for grassroots supply and marketing cooperatives and business points.

The other grass-roots supply and marketing cooperatives and business points basically only have a few employees. The huge scale of the commercial ** makes all the directors envious, but they feel powerless. The commercial ** and the second electronics factory have undergone great changes, while the situation in the courtyard has not changed much.

In the courtyard, Qin Huairu has become the public enemy of everyone. Except for Sha Zhu, almost no one is willing to communicate with her. Those who once had expectations of her in the past have retreated, fearing that they will follow in Jia Dongxu's footsteps. Only Sha Zhu is still willing to be her licking dog, and this is exactly what Qin Huairu is good at dealing with. She has always maintained an ambiguous attitude in the past three years. When Sha Zhu seems a little disappointed, she gives him a little sweetness, and when she feels that the relationship between the two sides has become too close, she keeps a certain distance. This method is very appropriate for Sha Zhu, making him always look forward to getting her in the past three years. No matter what others say, it is useless.

If it were a few years ago, Yi Zhonghai might have cared about Sha Zhu's problem, but now that he has Yi Xinxin, he doesn't care about it at all. In the past three years, Yi Zhonghai and his wife protected Yi Xinxin very well and did not allow Qin Huairu to get close to her. At the age of three and a half, the child did not suffer any hardship and looked very strong. They have regarded the renamed Yi Xinxin as their own child, providing the best food and clothes. The child has also been trained to be very sensible and no longer the dirty look in the previous TV series. Because of their similar ages, Yi Xinxin became good friends with Ye Chuan's daughter Ye Hansu, which was also supported by Yi Zhonghai and his wife.

Different from most children of this era, Ye Hansu has lived in a privileged environment since she was a child. Neighbors thought that having a girl would affect Tong Yao's status, but to everyone's surprise, Ye Hansu was loved by the whole family like a princess. Especially her father Ye Chuan doted on her. Every day after get off work, he would take the child for a walk in the yard, listen to the child's stories about what he saw and heard during the day, or tell the child a story of about 20 minutes. Both grandfather Ye Yongshun and mother Liu Yue also loved this granddaughter, and did not have the traditional concept of preferring boys at all. Therefore, Ye Hansu was brought up very well. At a young age, she was able to recite many ancient poems and was polite and decent; the fact that she became friends with Yi Xinxin also made Yi Zhonghai and his wife feel very relieved.

The healthy growth of these two children is like a beautiful picture scroll. In addition to the Ye family and the Yi family, the Ma family is the most comfortable in the courtyard. After years of hard work, they finally ushered in a turning point. Ma Jianshe is currently the deputy chief of the safety technology department of the Second Electronics Factory, and he is busy in the factory every day with the camera provided by Ye Chuan.

During the inspection, many workshops could not help but standardize their operations when they saw him coming. During the inspection, a Nikon F camera broke down, and Ye Chuan wanted to give Ma Jianshe a new one, but he did not expect Ma Jianshe to fix the camera himself, and it did not affect normal use at all, which surprised Ye Chuan.

Ye Chuan suppressed his inner feelings and did not hand over some technical information about Nikon cameras to the other party. Moreover, the windy day was coming, and this was a good opportunity to evaluate the quality of these people. If Ma Jianshe could stand the test, the information could be safely handed over to him for research.

There is another unexpected thing in the courtyard, that is, the relationship between Xu Damao and Hu Qiumei. Even after Xu Damao was unable to have children, Hu Qiumei still chose to be with him and did not leave him because of this problem. Even Ye Chuan himself did not expect this. After careful consideration, he felt that the deaf old lady played a certain role in this. She tried to force Hu Qiumei and Sha Zhu to get together, but this seemed to backfire and strengthened the emotional foundation between Hu Qiumei and Xu Damao.

Xu Damao was particularly touched by this. In the past few years, he became more sensible, treated Hu Qiumei better, and took the initiative to take on some housework at home. He knew that he could not hide his infertility problem after all. If Hu Qiumei really broke up with him because of this, it would be difficult for him to find a partner in the future. Even if he could remarry, it would be a woman with children or some health problems.

Although the two reconciled, he was still very concerned about his infertility problem. If there was a right opportunity, he would definitely give Sha Zhu a good beating.

In addition, Yan Jiecheng had also gotten married the year before. Ye Chuan was deeply moved that many things were still proceeding along the original path. His wife was Yu Li.

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng was already married, Sha Zhu couldn't help but get impatient and wanted to marry Qin Huairu as soon as possible, but he was always a little hesitant, and as a result, he had been delaying it until now. His anxiety was also noticed by the deaf old lady. Since the incident with Hu Qiumei, the deaf old lady has become more low-key, and sometimes she no longer attends important meetings within the courtyard.

Although she no longer interfered in the affairs of the courtyard, she was very worried about Sha Zhu's emotional affairs. Whenever she found that her precious grandson could not find a suitable partner, she was always anxious. For this reason, the deaf old lady repeatedly mentioned this problem to Yi Zhonghai, but the latter did not take it seriously. This also made her realize that the Yi family now had Xiao Xinxin, and no longer needed Sha Zhu to bear the responsibility of supporting the family, and she could not help but sigh in her heart.

Regardless of whether others help or not, she decided to worry about it herself. So the deaf old lady went to the street office to find Director Wang in person, hoping to help Sha Zhu find a suitable spouse. But when he learned about Sha Zhu's matter, Director Wang shook his head again and again. It turned out that He Yushui was assigned to work in the street office, and she knew her brother's personality better than anyone else. No matter what kind of girl was introduced to her, Qin Huairu would ruin it.

However, as the deaf old lady kept coming to the door to ask for help, Director Wang finally agreed to help pay attention to the matter. This made the deaf old lady stop visiting frequently and leave satisfied.

If we talk about the family that has changed the most in the courtyard, it must be the Ye family. Although Ye Yongshun still serves as the deputy director of the workshop, after three years of accumulation, he has become quite powerful and has completely gotten rid of the embarrassing situation when he was just promoted from an ordinary worker to deputy director.

During this time, Ye Hansu grew up day by day. As for Tong Yao, she was pregnant with their second child and was about to give birth in a few hours.
