Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

A few curious babies surrounded the motorcycle and asked questions. Chen Changan simply answered the little guys' questions while cooking.

After dinner, they insisted on pestering Chen Changan to experience riding a motorcycle. Chen Changan had no choice but to take the three little ones out for a ride.

Chen Changan had one person sitting in his arms, and Xiuying had another person sitting in the back. Since there were quite a lot of people on the bike, Chen Changan just rode around slowly and came back. He didn't dare to ride fast.

But even so, the little guys were very excited.

This time when he came back, he was indeed seen by Yan Fugui. After staring at the motorcycle that Chen Changan pushed into the yard for a long time, he turned around and walked out.

The next morning, many people in the yard saw the motorcycle in front of Chen Changan's house.

After all, in this era, if you have a bicycle, you can show off for a long time. Motorcycles? Only leaders can ride them.

As for Chen Changan, is he qualified to ride a motorcycle? How can a young man like him, who is dealing with honeycomb coal, be qualified to ride a motorcycle?

And he rode it home? He must have taken advantage of the government. How could such a person be a factory manager?

Chen Changan also saw the looks of these neighbors, which were full of envy, jealousy and hatred. Ignoring these looks, Chen Changan rode his bike directly to the processing plant.

Seeing Chen Changan riding a bicycle to work, Sister Hou was also jealous. Due to her long working years and the fact that both of her husband and wife worked, Sister Hou rode a bicycle to work every day.

But can this bicycle be compared with a motorcycle? In the past, Hou was basically the only one who rode a bicycle to work in the factory.

Xiao Su has only been working for a short time and has a heavy burden at home, so he can forget about buying a bicycle.

The rest of the people in the factory? It's good enough if they have enough food to eat, why do they need bicycles?

In the past, Sister Hou was the object of envy every morning, but this morning it was Chen Changan.

Many workers knew what kind of engine Chen Changan and Shi Heping had tinkered with in the workshop.

I also heard that with an engine, a motorcycle can be built. I never thought that it would be made so quickly and look so good.

Shi Heping saw Chen Changan riding a motorcycle to the factory, and ran over and asked, "Director, how is it? Is there anything wrong with our motorcycle?"

Chen Changan looked at Shi Heping's slightly nervous expression, smiled and said, "I went to Nanjiao Farm twice yesterday and tried both good roads and muddy roads. There were no problems at all."

Now Shi Heping finally let go of his tension and smiled happily.

After all, this is the first motorcycle he made. It is of great significance and is no different from his own son.

Although this motorcycle was truly made by Chen Changan, the relationship between them is like that between a biological mother and a wet nurse. There is affection between them.

After Shi Heping went up and walked around the factory, Chen Changan and Shi Heping continued to enter the workshop. Chen Changan also wanted to see how the follow-up progress was.

Just a few minutes after entering the workshop, Yan Jiefang came to the workshop to find Chen Changan and said, "Director Wang from the Street Office is here. He is waiting for him in Chen Changan's office now."

While walking towards the office, Chen Changan was still thinking about the purpose of Director Wang coming to see him.

Want money? Ever since Chen Changan donated several thousand yuan to the textile factory run by the street office, Chen Changan has also heard that the textile factory has expanded production and recruited many women from poor families who have no jobs.

This textile factory needs skilled workers. It's only been a few months, they can't possibly want to expand production, right?

When Chen Changan walked to his office, he saw Director Wang walking around the motorcycle and looking around.

Chen Changan hurried over and said to Director Wang who was still looking at the motorcycle, "Auntie Wang, how come you have time to come to me today? If you have any instructions, just ask someone to pass them on."

Director Wang glanced at Chen Changan and said, "What? Now that you have a motorcycle, you ride it everywhere to show off? And you even drive it home? Even the neighborhood office doesn't know about it. You're doing a good job of keeping it a secret, right?"

Listening to Director Wang's words, Chen Changan felt annoyed. This must have been reported by someone, and it must be someone in the yard. Otherwise, Director Wang would not have come to him so early in the morning just because of the motorcycle.

So he smiled flatteringly at Director Wang and said, "Auntie Wang, this motorcycle was just made yesterday. Shouldn't I ride it out to try it out first? After all, I rushed to the street office to report to you, but in the end I couldn't even open the factory gate. Wouldn't that be a big joke?"

Perhaps what Chen Changan said made sense, so Director Wang turned around and asked, "Then tell me, where did you go on your motorcycle yesterday?"

Chen Changan looked at Director Wang's expression and knew that he had passed the test. Now he just needed to examine the performance of the motorcycle, so he said, "This is a motorcycle that our factory has spent a lot of time researching and making, and the engine has also been tested for at least a week.

As soon as this motorcycle was finished yesterday, I rode it to Nanjiao Farm twice. Because I came back too late, I didn’t go back to the factory, and the motorcycle went directly to the courtyard. ”

Hearing this, Director Wang nodded and said, "Pay attention to your influence in the future, especially in your courtyard. There are all kinds of people, especially your courtyard's Third Uncle, who usually likes to tell tales."

Shit, it turned out to be the third uncle Yan Fugui, the old guy who reported it. No wonder Director Wang got the news so quickly, catching him off guard.

Chen Changan originally planned to make a few more motorcycles and then go to the street office together to give Director Wang, the incompetent guy, a surprise.

Your son Yan Jiefang is still working here, how dare you do this?

Seeing Chen Changan's gloomy face, Director Wang said, "These are all small matters. Your motorcycle is the big deal. How is it? Are there any quality problems? If you want to mass-produce it, what difficulties will there be?"

Chen Changan thought for a while and said, "There are still many difficulties. If we only rely on our factory, we have only a few cats and cats, and we don't even have many decent machines. Three or five machines a month is not a problem.

If we want to produce on a large scale, we need to build a factory with a site as large as a steel mill and with similarly skilled workers. That’s the only hope.”

Director Wang said, "If there really is a steel mill as big as the one you mentioned, how many motorcycles can it produce in a year?"

Chen Changan thought about it and said, "If the materials and personnel are OK, about 10,000 units?"

When Director Wang heard about 10,000 units, his eyes lit up. Could there really be 10,000 units?

Chen Changan was also uncertain, "I mixed some of the materials myself. As for the other aspects, as long as there are skilled workers and raw materials, I can't think of any problems."

Then Chen Changan seemed to realize something and said, "Of course I am responsible for the situation of the factory. I can't guarantee it for others."

Hearing what Chen Changan said, Director Wang smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood what Chen Changan meant. Then he rode on Chen Changan's motorcycle parked at the door of the office, told Chen Changan that he was going to report the situation to the leader, and then left the processing plant in a flash.
