Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chen Changan looked at Liu Binghui and didn't bother to pay attention to him. What kind of business is this?

He created such a big scene just to act as a matchmaker. I really don't know what's going on in his mind.

If Chen Changan had known Liu Binghui's plan earlier, he would never have agreed to let him hold any social gathering.

Chen Changan looked at the people performing on the stage. Not to mention that Chen Changan took the lead, there were still quite a few people performing.

Most of the performances are based on poetry recitation, exaggerated exclamations and some body movements, which are very characteristic of the era.

From the perspective of later generations, it was somewhat funny. But Chen Changan did not dare to laugh. He had worked so hard to create the atmosphere.

If you smile, it will make others feel embarrassed to perform. If they think you are laughing at them, that is not good.

Liu Binghui stayed aside, looking at Chen Changan who ignored him. After feeling that Chen Changan was really watching the show seriously, he could only return to his seat in a depressed mood.

The show was over very quickly. After all, not everyone had a show to perform, and not everyone was willing to perform.

Those who came from poor families never learned any talent since childhood. At most, they learned to recite a few poems when they were in school.

The young men had only listened to crosstalk a few times. As for songs, apart from those played at school, they were the ones played on the factory radio every day.

Therefore, in this era, there are very few workers with amazing talents. In addition, they are also shy, so the show ended quickly.

After that, it was free time, which started to make the security department nervous. At this time, some impatient young men might start to pull and tug at the young women, or even get into a fight out of jealousy.

Before entering the cafeteria, the security staff had warned the young man not to do anything out of line, as there would be a next time if he did not do it properly.

If anyone disobeys, there will be no next time for the social gathering because of him. Not only will the factory punish him, but other single young men will also hate him.

So the young men at the motorcycle factory were relatively restrained. When they saw a girl they liked, they would go up to her and ask her name.

If someone is willing to answer you, you can have a meal with him at the same table later. If someone doesn’t want to tell you, don’t bother him.

After all, this is not a one-sided wish. Fortunately, this is the era, and speed is important.

Chen Changan also couldn't bear to see this scene, so after giving Liu Hongjun a few instructions, he went to the kitchen.

Nan Yi is busy with his kitchen helpers. There are many people today, and the main dish is still braised pork with big steamed buns. It takes a lot of time.

Chen Changan felt that he was no longer needed for the rest of the things. Liu Binghui's words of compensation could not fool everyone.

If there were a few more young women who kept pestering him, it would have a bad impact on others. For this reason, Chen Changan ate a few bites in the kitchen and went back.

To be honest, in this kind of occasion, with leaders from both sides present, many people would not be able to relax. It is completely formalistic.

However, if you can meet someone, after the social gathering, you may still ask around about the person you like, so it cannot be said that it has no effect at all.

Since Fan Hongtao was captured by himself, Chen Changan resumed reading newspapers in the office every day, going home to eat and look at the paintings drawn by his sisters.

He would make a few comments from time to time, and sometimes he would suggest some comic techniques, which could still impress the sisters.

There was no way Chen Changan only had this much. Chen Changan didn't understand anything about oil painting, Chinese painting, or colored painting.

Watching his sisters drawing, Chen Changan also prepared to draw something.

With the end of three years of natural disasters, things will get better and better after the new year, and Chen Changan is also preparing to start designing his own motorcycle factory staff quarters.

Including the layout of the family buildings, Chen Changan doesn't want to turn the houses for the workers in his factory into tiny snail houses.

I don't need a house of 100 square meters, but 70 or 80 square meters is enough, right? At the very least, 60 square meters without a common area is the minimum. This is enough for a family of three.

There are also supporting heating, public bathrooms, restaurants, supply and marketing cooperatives, and even community greening. These all need to be considered.

Following Chen Changan’s own imagination, he began to write and draw on paper, and would revise it from time to time.

In the following days, after Chen Changan arrived at the factory every day, he spent much less time drinking tea and reading newspapers.

Several days had passed since the social gathering, and Chen Changan's design was almost completed.

"bang bang bang"

The knock on the door interrupted Chen Changan's thoughts. There was no other way, there was no central heating in this era.

This is a large community, so Chen Changan needs to calculate the size of the boiler. It is estimated that only water heating can be used.

Insulation materials, the direction and size of water inlet and outlet pipes, rainwater drainage pipes, including firefighting pipes. The densely packed lines almost made Chen Changan, who was not a design major, collapse.

Forget it, just take a break. The blueprint and appearance of the community are simple, but the invisible things are the trouble. For example, do we need to consider lightning protection?

He put away the blueprint, leaned back in his chair, rubbed his temples, and then said, "Come in."

Seeing Shi Heping coming in, Chen Changan's headache, which had just been relieved, started again.

Chen Changan was really afraid of Shi Heping coming to his office.

Nothing good has ever happened to this guy since he came to his office.

Shi Heping has good skills and most of the problems can be solved by Shi Heping.

If Shi Heping can't make up his mind, or can't solve a problem, it will become a difficult problem for Chen Changan.

Moreover, Shi Heping is not only good at technology, but also good at management. If there is a problem that he needs to report, it is very likely that there is a real problem.

"Director Chen, I have discovered something and I am here to report to you."

As expected, Chen Changan felt a headache when he heard Shi Heping's words. Technical problems were easy to solve. Other things were troublesome. I hope this time it won't be related to enemy spies.

"You say it."

"Recently, many people in the workshop have been taking sick leave, and the factory clinic is overcrowded. All of them are factory workers or their families who go to see a doctor."

Chen Changan heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Shi Heping said. Fortunately, it was not an enemy spy. Chen Changan was really scared. He really didn't want to deal with people from the special department.

It's just an illness, as long as it doesn't affect the motorcycle factory's plans.

At most, it was just influenza, which is common in later generations. There was often something like influenza A. Children just had fever, hand, foot and mouth disease, etc.

How great can it be that in the future, due to an epidemic, you are locked up at home, unable to go out, and have to stay at home every day?
