Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

I don’t know where Director Wang went for a ride on his bike. He only came back on his bike when it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon.

He said directly to Chen Changan, "I've filled up your car with gas. I have to say, your motorcycle is comfortable to ride. At least it's more comfortable than the Japanese motorcycles."

These words made Chen Changan stunned, and then he realized that it might have been captured during the war years.

Chen Changan said, "Of course, one reason is the age difference. How can the comfort of military equipment compare with that of civilian equipment?

I'm not exaggerating, but my shock absorption really doesn't work without some tricks."

Director Wang got out of the car and said, "You don't have to brag to me. Just get ready. A leader will come to inspect you the day after tomorrow. Go and brag to him then."

Upon hearing that a leader was coming to inspect, Chen Changan began to smile flatteringly again, "Auntie Wang, what level of leader is coming? Can you give me some tips? What preparations should I make?"

Director Wang smiled and said, "It's not as serious as you think. It may be the leader of the department who came to check on your motorcycle production."

Chen Changan immediately said anxiously, "Auntie Wang, there is no production here. Everything is done by hand. This is such an outdated production method. If the leaders see it, it will be a bit bad, right?"

Director Wang smiled and said, "Of course there must be difficulties, otherwise how can the department help you? Producing motorcycles under difficult circumstances can better demonstrate our proletarian spirit of self-reliance and hard work, right?"

After Director Wang said this, Chen Changan understood. The objective conditions were here, not that Chen Changan didn't want to expand and strengthen the production workshop.

This is a honeycomb coal processing factory, and I just used the original mechanic's site.

By the way, there is a workshop with several machines. Through continuous research and unremitting efforts, we finally made a motorcycle.

If the leaders want to mass-produce motorcycles, then wouldn't they be able to solve the problems of site, factory buildings, machinery, and personnel?

Oh, I still don’t know how to be an official? It’s such a simple question, but I just figured it out now. I still don’t understand politics.

No matter how well you work, it is better to let your leader know who you are. This is true no matter what era it is.

Later on, we heard that two students from the same class were selected and transferred to the same region at the same time, and became county governors of two neighboring counties.

One gets paid to repair water conservancy projects every day, while the other gets paid to spend money recklessly every day. Suddenly, a flood occurred, and the one who repaired the water conservancy projects every day had nothing to do.

The dam collapsed without water conservancy. As a result, the TV station and the People's Liberation Army came. As the county magistrate, he volunteered to rush to the front line and organized cadres, party members and the masses to actively respond. With the cooperation of the People's Liberation Army, he finally completed the work of flood control and disaster relief.

The flood receded, and the water conservancy projects were repaired, and nothing happened. On the contrary, the county magistrate whose dam collapsed cried on TV because of his outstanding organizational ability. He was promoted because he loved his people like his own children.

It seems that Chen Changan is indeed not suitable to be a leader. After Director Wang's reminder, Chen Changan also understood.

So I said, "Auntie Wang, thank you, I know what to do now."

Director Wang smiled and said, "Not bad, work hard in the future. When the factory expands, don't forget the people in our street when recruiting workers."

Chen Changan smiled and said, "Okay, as long as I have the final say on this matter, everything will be fine."

Watching Director Wang leave, Chen Changan called several important people in the factory and started a meeting without saying anything else.

Looking inside the office, there were Sister Hou, Xiao Su, Shi Heping, and a warehouse supervisor arranged by the street office.

Chen Changan asked directly, "Sister Hou, Xiao Su, how is Yan Jiefang doing in your finance department?"

Because of Director Wang's arrival, everyone in the office knew about it. As soon as Director Wang left, Chen Changan announced a meeting. Sister Hou and Xiao Su from the Finance Department thought it was about the motorcycle.

After all, Director Wang came in the morning and left on his motorcycle.

Who would have thought that when Chen Changan came up and asked Yan Jiefang, Sister Hou and Xiao Su were both stunned.

Because of Yan Jiecheng's incident, Yan Fugui had a gloomy face all day long, making everyone in the Yan family look unhappy.

After all, such a thing happened in the family, which was a big blow in this era. Yan Fugui almost lost his job. If it weren't for the fact that he had worked there for so many years and the fact that the school was really short of teachers, Yan Fugui would have gone home and been unemployed.

It would be strange if Yan Fugui could still have a good face, and Yan Jiefang also lost the smiling face he had when he first came to the factory.

Many people in the factory know that the two are brothers. If your brother steals things from the factory, it is no different from stealing their things.

They are all suffering, and they will cherish their jobs. If you make the factory lose money, who will pay their wages? The government? How many months can they pay? When the factory is gone, what will happen to their jobs?

At first, some people didn't care. Then someone who understood the situation explained the interests involved. Yan Jiefang was looked down upon by the workers in the factory every day.

Some people even talked about it behind his back, saying that when the elder brother stole something, didn’t his younger brother help him? Didn’t he participate in it?

If the eldest brother steals something, doesn’t his younger brother who works in the same factory know about it?

Once these questions form in people's minds, and this person is in front of them every day, how can they not let their imagination run wild?

As a result, people who used to have a good relationship with Yan Jiefang also began to gradually distance themselves from him.

Yan Jiefang also felt the same way his elder brother felt: isolated.

I no longer have the feeling I had when I first arrived at the factory. I followed Wu Haiyan and was respected by everyone.

Gradually, Yan Jiefang also began to look gloomy and wanted to quit, but Yan Fugui at home disagreed.

Working in the processing factory, even if he only earned a penny, he was here to supervise Chen Changan, hoping that Chen Changan would become too proud of himself in the processing factory and reveal his true identity, so that he could deal a fatal blow to Chen Changan, or at least ruin Chen Changan's career.

Yan Jiefang's relationship with Wu Haiyan, and his relationship with Sister Hou and Xiao Su can only be described as average.

Chen Changan asked this question directly during the meeting. Xiao Su was about to say something when Sister Hou stopped him. She said, "Yan Jiefang's work ability is average. There is no obvious dereliction of duty, but he never smiles all day, as if everyone owes him money. He has no revolutionary spirit at all."

Sister Hou's words pushed Yan Jiefang to the ground.

Xiao Su next to him was young after all, and wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and didn't know where to start.

Could it be that what Sister Hou said was wrong? As for work ability, if you are not a professional, even if you have learned some from Wu Haiyan before, can you still be better than a regular finance major?

It is true that he has no smile. What is going on at home? How can he still smile? What are people talking about him at the factory? How can he still greet people with a smile?

As for the lack of revolutionary spirit? Isn't it the kind of thing that if you are told that you have it, you have it, and if you don't, you still have it. If you are told that you don't have it, you don't have it, and if you do, you still don't have it.

The kind-hearted Xiao Su didn't want Yan Jiefang to be stereotyped like this. But Xiao Su didn't have the ability to change Chen Changan. Xiao Su, who was self-aware, finally chose not to speak.
