Rebirth of science and technology to rejuvenate the country

When Yuan Xia came out, Song Xiaoliang was following behind him, calling out "Brother Yuan" very smoothly.

As soon as Yu Xing glanced at him, Yuan Xia smiled and said, "My colleague Song Xiaoliang. Xiao Liang, this is my senior brother Yu Xingyi, who is studying as a graduate student in University."

When Yu Xing heard Yuan Xia's introduction, he raised his eyebrows, it was the first time he introduced himself to someone like this.

Song Xiaoliang enthusiastically stretched out his hands to hold Yu Xingyi's hand: "Hello, hello! Brother Yuan is so powerful. You are his senior brother, so you must be stronger than him." His eyes were full of admiration.

Yu Xing coughed lightly, why is this kid so incapable of talking, isn't he afraid of offending Yuan Xia?

Before he could refute, Yuan Xia said with a smile: "Of course, my senior brother must be better than me, he is a graduate student."

Yu Xing looked at Yuan Xia with a slightly helpless expression.

Yuan Xia smiled and raised his hand to hook Yu Xingyi's shoulder: "Brother, let's go, go and taste the food in our cafeteria, I'm sure you won't want to leave after eating."

Yu Xingyi said: "Then I won't leave, I will only eat your big family, okay?"

Yuan Xia laughed: "I can't ask for it, I'm afraid Miaoxiao won't be able to keep you."

Song Xiaoliang looked at the two people in front of him with envy all over his face, how could he be such a good buddy?

As soon as Yu Xing found out that Song Xiaoliang really had some blind admiration for Yuan Xia as Yuan Xia said, and Yuan Xia's attitude towards him was at most the same as those juniors and juniors he met in the science and technology club before, enthusiastic and serious, as if he was After supporting a junior, he felt relieved.

Yu Xingyi played here in Yuan Xia for two days before leaving, Yuan Xia went to work, and he didn't go anywhere else to play.

During the day, he went to work with Yuan Xia, went to the workshop to overhaul the equipment, and experienced what is called high-temperature roasting, which strengthened his determination to let Yuan Xia leave.

Colleagues in the equipment department knew that Yu Xingyi was a graduate student majoring in mechanical engineering, so they respected him very much and had no objection to him entering or leaving the workshop.

Going to the swimming pool with Yuan Xia in the evening, Yu Xingyi felt that this should be the only advantage of Red Star Factory.At night, the two of them would lie on the bed and talk about the mountains, sketching the future.

Yuan Xia walked with Yu Xingyi, once Yu Xing went back to Yuecheng, Yuan Xia went back to Suyang.

The younger siblings are about to start school. As the current main labor force in the family, of course they have to send money back. His salary has not yet been paid, but he can be said to have withdrawn it in advance.

Yuan Dehou took the envelope handed to him by his grandson with the stamp of Hongxing Iron and Steel Works. Inside, there were three pieces of Great Unity. His hands trembled with excitement. His grandson finished college and worked and received a salary from the state. If Dasheng was still there, How happy he should be.

Yuan Xia watched his grandfather wipe his tears with his hand, and said, "Grandpa, you don't have to worry about the business in the store from now on, it doesn't matter how much you earn. I have a salary, and I will support the family in the future."

Yuan Dehou touched the banknotes one by one, and put them back into the envelope: "You don't need to support the family. Grandpa will keep it for you, and save it for you to marry a wife later."

Yuan Xia secretly sighed, this may not be able to make Grandpa what he wanted, he said: "Grandpa, I am still young, it is too early to marry a wife, the key now is to cultivate Dongdong, Chun'er and Yangyang."

Yuan Dehou said: "You don't have to worry about them, I can afford their education by opening this store."

Yuan Xia said: "Grandpa, don't be too frugal, eat what you should eat, and spend what you should spend. You are getting old, and your younger brothers and sisters are growing up. If your nutrition can't keep up, your body will easily get sick, so spend money on medical treatment." The gains outweigh the losses, younger siblings affect their development and will delay them for the rest of their lives."

Yuan Dehou nodded: "I know, I don't know."

After staying at home for one night, Yuan Xia went back to work in the factory.It took two days for Yuan Qiu to report back to school, it was not the first time she took the train alone, Yuan Xia was not too worried.

There is nothing wrong with worrying about your sister, but you also have to trust her ability to deal with problems. These are simple things that she can handle.

At the beginning of September, Yuan Xia received her first salary of 62.9 yuan, including 55 yuan of wages, some overtime pay and bonuses.

There is no trial period at all, and he has also received a bonus, which is definitely the leader's recognition of his work ability.

This made Yang Sheng very angry. Although Yuan Xia didn't show off his salary to others, it was still easy to find out if he wanted to.

After Yang Sheng was assigned to the factory, he received a three-month probationary salary, but when he arrived at Yuanxia, ​​he didn't receive it for a month. This is too unfair!

Yang Sheng couldn't help but asked Qiao Mingsheng directly.

Qiao Mingsheng didn't even lift his eyelids: "The salary is paid by the state, how do I know? Besides, Yuan Xia's technical level is completely comparable to that of a skilled worker, and he doesn't have an apprenticeship."

Yang Sheng was speechless. Although he had been working for two years, so far, he still dare not say that he can find out the problems of all equipment 100% and solve them smoothly, but Yuan Xia can.

Both Liang Hongchang and Qiao Mingsheng made it clear that the organization wanted to cultivate Yuan Xia. On the surface, Yuan Xia was very happy, but in his heart he was somewhat apologetic. He was destined to leave the Red Star Factory.

So when he usually gives advice to Song Xiaoliang, he works very hard, at least when he leaves, he can train a useful person for Corey.

Yuan Xia doesn't think much of Yang Sheng, who has a high self-esteem. Although his foundation is not solid, he thinks highly of himself. He always pretends to be a master in front of Song Xiaoliang, points fingers at him, and even gives wrong demonstrations.

Yuan Xia made it clear to Song Xiaoliang that he would rather ask Master Huang under the pressure of being scolded than ask Yang Sheng, he would really mislead his children.

Fortunately, Song Xiaoliang also knew in his heart that what he didn't know was to ask Master Huang and Yuan Xia, and he didn't go to Yang Sheng, who was more similar to his age.

During her days at Red Star Factory, Yuan Xia was busy and fulfilling. She was not overhauling machines, studying, or writing letters to classmates and friends scattered all over the world.

Almost every week, Yuan Xia would receive three or four letters.Yu Xingyi and Yuan Qiu wrote most frequently, every week, Yuan Dong also had more letters from home, and Liu Yang had more letters.

Liu Yang's letter is nothing more than the anguish of love, the discomfort of entering the workplace, a large state-owned enterprise like Shougang, where all kinds of relationships are intertwined, if you don't pay attention, you will offend some Buddha, and you can only behave like a man with your tail between your legs. .

However, Yuan Xia also saw some positive information from Liu Yang's letter. Shougang is undergoing reforms, breaking the egalitarianism of eating from the big pot, and implementing the contract system.

Each department and each branch factory produces independently. After paying the full contract share, the excess part is retained by the department, and the money earned is handled by each department and each branch factory by itself, including but not limited to bonuses, building staff dormitories, and upgrading technical equipment. wait.

The contracting system has greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of workers for production. State-owned enterprises like Shougang occupy national resources. As long as the enthusiasm is mobilized, it is obvious that the efficiency and output will double. live?

For example, Yuan Xia earned 62.9 yuan in his first month's salary, which is not too little, but Liu Yang's first month's salary was 83.5 yuan, and it will only be more or less in the future.

Once Yuan Xia ran into Liang Hongchang while eating in the cafeteria and mentioned this matter to him.

Liang Hongchang looked at Yuan Xia in a daze for a while, and then said: "I read it in the newspaper, they are a pilot unit. The contract system should require the approval of the superior department."

Yuan Xia nodded: "Yes, they are the first batch of demonstration units for the reform of state-owned enterprises."

Without exception, the first batch of demonstration units survived the impact of the subsequent market economy. Although Yuan Xia will not continue working in the Red Star Factory, he also hopes that the factory can survive, after all, it is related to the employment of thousands of people.

Liang Hongchang sighed: "It's better to be in Beijing. At the feet of the emperor, any policy can arrive first."

Yuan Xia didn't express any further opinions. He provided this information to Liang Hongchang because he was the deputy factory director and the one who was most likely to change the fate of the Red Star factory. As for whether they could seize the opportunity, it was up to them.

Yuan Xia communicated with most of his classmates and friends once a month or so, only Xu Tuanjie and Xiao Yunsheng had the slowest letter frequency, Xu Tuanjie was really far away, his first letter to Yuan Xia was sent to Yu Xingyi There, when Yu Xingyi forwarded it to Yuan Xia, one and a half months had passed since the letter was sent.

Xu Tuanjie's unit manufactures agricultural machinery and equipment, such as large combine harvesters, cultivators, seeders, water pumps, etc., to provide equipment for vast and flat farms.

Speaking of which, the earliest agricultural mechanized planting in China should be the large farms in the Northeast and Northwest that were reclaimed after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Xu Tuanjie graduated and entered the equipment factory. He should be the most professional counterpart. There is also Lu Fengnian, who produces machine tools.

Xiao Yunsheng's first letter was also sent to Yu Xingyi, his address was written in detail, and it took more than a month to receive the letter.

Yuan Xia took it apart and looked at it. The mailing address was a certain street in Kunming City, which was clearly a downtown area. It didn't look like a real address at first glance. It should still be mailed here before being forwarded.

Xiao Yunsheng didn't write down his job content in detail, but Yuan Xia guessed that his major should also match.

How lucky it is to be able to match the major of a university graduate. Even if it has only been a few years since the resumption of the college entrance examination, there is a shortage of talents, and many people cannot do so, let alone the later college students.

The National Day of the [-]th is Saturday, and there are two days of holidays after the weekend. Yuan Xia went to see Yu Xingyi.He set off on Friday night, and Yu Xingyi rode to the train station to pick him up in advance.

These few days happened to be cooling down and raining, but it didn't stop him from rushing to Yuecheng.Yuan Xia got behind Yu Xingyi's raincoat, and went back to school in a stuffy way, his back and trousers were still wet from the raincoat, and he shivered a little from the cold.

Yu Xingyi was so distressed that he hurriedly dragged him to the school bathroom to take a hot shower, and when he came back, he went to bed and got under the quilt, and didn't go out.

Yuan Xia was lying on Yu Xing's bed, wrapped in a thin quilt: "Autumn came so early this year, it's only the National Day, and I feel cold even wearing a coat. Do I have to wear a sweater?"

Yu Xingyi said, "It's been raining for a few days, so it's a bit cold."

Yu Xingyi's roommate, He Yongqing, came back from the laboratory, turned on the light, and saw that the mosquito net on Yu Xingyi's bed had been put down. He was surprised. Yu Xingyi actually went to bed earlier than him, and fell ill?

He walked over and lifted the mosquito net to see that there were two people lying on the bed, very close to each other. He was nearsighted and couldn't see clearly at first glance. He thought it was a woman, so he quickly put down the mosquito net and looked again. The shoes beside the bed, although they were a pair of white shoes, were clearly a pair of men's shoes, so he let out a sigh.

The next morning, He Yongqing got up and saw that Yu Xingyi had already got up and was making the quilt, and Yuan Xia was not in the room. He smiled and said, "Is Yuan Xia here? Last night I thought you brought your girlfriend back It's over."

Yu Xing laughed: "What's wrong, where did I get a girlfriend from?"

He Yongqing yawned and stretched, and said: "If I didn't know that Yuan Xia is a man, I would definitely believe that you are a couple. I will go to see you, and you will come to see me. You run more frequently than your date. "

Yu Xingyi's hand that was putting the pillow paused for a moment, as if a certain string in his heart had been touched.

After washing up, Yuan Xia came in from the door with a cup and basin, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I'm a man, otherwise Xingyi's reputation would be ruined."

As soon as Yu Xing heard Yuan Xia's voice, he hurriedly straightened his waist, but unexpectedly moved too fast, he was too tall, and hit the top of his head all at once: "Ouch!"

Yuan Xia hurriedly dropped the basin and cup and came over to check his head: "Xing Yi, are you alright?"

Yu Xingyi pressed the hit part with his hand, and said, "Oh, I didn't notice, I hit it all of a sudden, it hurts like hell."

Yuan Xia stretched out his hand and touched it: "Fortunately, there is no lump. You are tall, so you must pay special attention. If you hit your head, who will help me design my company's machines in the future?"

He Yongqing was originally watching the excitement from the sidelines, and he felt that Yuan Xia's reaction was very funny and too nervous, but when he heard about the company, he remembered the partnership they had been planning to start a company, so he asked: "What are you doing?" Is the current unit not good?"

Yuan Xia said, "It's so-so."

He Yongqing said: "Then you really want to come out and do it alone?"

"Sooner or later. Brother He can come together if you are interested." Yuan Xia said with a smile.

He Yongqing waved his hand: "Don't, I'd better enter my research institute. I finally got admitted to a university to study as a graduate student. I don't want to lose my job. But Yu Xingyi, do you really want to partner with Yuan Xia to start a company? With your grades , it’s not impossible to stay in school.”

Before Yu Xingyi could speak, Yuan Xia said: "Staying in school doesn't mean that I can't help me design machines. Anyway, my cooperation with Xingyi is a certainty. Brother He, maybe we can cooperate when the time comes, you You can also earn extra money."

He Yongqing was taken aback for a moment, then laughed: "Can it still be like this?"

Yuan Xia shrugged: "Why not? Intellectuals turn knowledge into wealth, everyone is happy, why not do it?"

After such an incident, He Yongqing no longer doubted the relationship between the two of them. It was obvious that Yuan Xia asked Yu Xingyi for help, so they had such a close connection.

The speaker may have no intentions, but a seed was planted in Yu Xingyi's heart. He began to examine his feelings for Yuan Xia, is it just a friend and confidant?Or have you crossed the boundaries of confidantes and reached the category of love?It's not impossible for men to have feelings for each other. He has seen the love of Peach Duanxiu and Long Yang in the book.

If you come to Yuecheng, you must go to see Yuanqiu.But Yuan Xia didn't tell Yuan Qiu in advance that he would come to Yuecheng for the National Day. When he and Yu Xing arrived at the teacher's college, as expected, they were all in vain. Yuan Qiu's roommate said that she went to the bookstore.

The two had no choice but to go back to school. At noon, Yuan Qiu pushed open the door of Yu Xingyi's dormitory: "Brother, why didn't you tell me in advance when you came!"

Qu Wenyuan was following behind her.

Yuan Xia understood the general idea at a glance: "I didn't tell you in advance, just to surprise you. Your classmate said you went to the bookstore, what books did you buy?"

"It's not just about buying books, what do you think this is? A magazine, with Xiao Qiu's novels on it." Qu Wenyuan proudly raised the magazine in his hand, his joy was beyond words.

Yuan Xia snatched it over: "Really? I'll take a look, I'll take a look." This is a well-known magazine, and Yuan Xia found her sister's article on it.

Yu Xingyi also came over to look at it: "Wow, Xiao Qiu, you are really amazing! You can publish novels in such a famous magazine? Haha, Yuan Xia, your family is going to produce a great writer in the future." He took pictures of Yuan Xia excitedly. shoulder.

Yuan Xia read the novel, but because he was too emotional, he couldn't read it at all. He laughed a few times: "How many copies did you buy? Bring me back to read, and I will show off to others. My sister is writer."

Yuan Qiu blushed and said, "Brother, I'm just a little author."

Yuan Xia said happily: "It's okay, great writers are accumulated from small writers, brother is optimistic about you. Continue to make persistent efforts!"

Qu Wenyuan said: "It has been prepared for you a long time ago. I bought six copies, one for me, one for Yuan Qiu, one for Xiao Xia, one for Xing Yi, and one for your family, and one for others. Look, I want to keep my own book. Hehehe!"

Yu Xingyi said: "Xiaoqiu, if you publish an article, won't the magazine send you a magazine?"

Yuan Qiu said: "It should be sent. I haven't received the manuscript fee and the magazine yet."

Qu Wenyuan said proudly: "I saw Xiaoqiu's article in our library yesterday, and I asked her to buy a magazine today. The magazine should have not arrived yet."

Yuan Qiu blushed and said, "If he hadn't told me, I wouldn't know."

Yuan Xia saw it in his eyes and kept it in his heart, this kid was quite caring.

During the two days of the National Day holiday, many people from Yuan Xia visited, including Qu Junqing and other teachers who had a better relationship.

After Yuan Xia left Yuecheng, the uneasiness and panic in Yu Xingyi's heart also magnified. After these two days of testing, he could already confirm that his feelings for Yuan Xia had already changed.

He actually has that kind of unspeakable affection for Yuan Xia, which is simply a desecration of their friendship, thanks to Yuan Xia's unreserved trust in him, treating herself as a friend and brother.

If Yuan Xia knew that she had such nasty thoughts about him, would she run far away?Thinking that Yuan Xia might loathe him, Yu Xingyi panicked, he must not let him know.

The two cities are separated and can only be contacted through letters, so Yuan Xia will naturally not know about Yu Xingyi's entanglement.

They still maintain the previous communication frequency, but Yuan Xia has also noticed that Yu Xingyi's letters are sometimes passionate, sometimes polite and restrained, and his style becomes a little unstable. I don't know why.

Yuan Xia naturally wouldn't know that Yu Xingyi was tearing himself apart emotionally at this moment.

Until the New Year's Eve, they never went to each other's place again. Yu Xingyi didn't go to Yuan Xia's place because he felt ashamed to go there. Yuan Xia didn't go to Yu Xingyi's place because of what He Yongqing said. Too close, afraid that He Yongqing would suspect and cause inconvenience to Yu Xingyi.

At the end of the year, Yuan Xia invited Yu Xingyi to come over to celebrate the New Year, but Yu Xingyi did not agree, and the Meteorological Bureau vacated his house. Decorate it.

Yuan Xia feels uncomfortable when he thinks of him celebrating the new year alone.

Yu Xingyi wrote to tell him that Professor Qu heard that he was celebrating the New Year at school and invited his lover to their house for a New Year's Eve dinner.

Knowing that he has somewhere to go during the Chinese New Year, Yuan Xia is a little relieved.As much as he'd love to go and see his family's house, he doesn't have a few days off.Only before the end of the holiday, he took the train to Yuecheng and planned to go back to work directly from Yuecheng. He really missed Yu Xingyi so much.

Yuan Xia pushed open the door of the dormitory that Yu Xing had concealed, and an unpleasant smell came from the room, Yuan Xia was almost choked, he quickly opened the door wide.

Yu Xingyi was lying on the bed moaning at the moment, Yuan Xia turned pale with shock: "Xing Yi, Xing Yi, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Xing had a stomach problem, and the bedside was full of filth.

He fell into a drowsy sleep, heard Yuan Xia's voice, thought he was hallucinating, and called out pitifully: "Yuan Xia." Yuan Xia is celebrating the New Year with his family now, how could he come here.

Yuan Xia didn't care about getting dirty, put her bag on the table, reached out to touch Yu Xingyi's forehead, the temperature was normal, not a fever, but her face was pale: "Xingyi, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Xing stretched out his hand and grabbed the hand on his forehead. He pressed his face against the hot hand, which felt really comfortable: "Stomach hurts. Yuan Xia, is it really you?"

Yuan Xia wiped away the teardrops oozing from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and huddled together in distress: "It's me. How did you make yourself like this? Does it hurt? Get up quickly, and I'll take you to see a doctor."

Yu Xing grabbed Yuan Xia's hand and couldn't let go, curled up under the blanket and couldn't get out, he felt ashamed.

Yuan Xia looked around the room, there were still cigarettes and wine on the table, how could this be the rigorous and self-disciplined Yu Xingyi: "Xingyi, what's wrong with you? You smoke and drink, it's not like that at all. Are you broken in love?"

As soon as Yu Xing doesn't speak, it means he's broken in love, and if he hasn't fallen in love, he's doomed to lose it.

He spends the New Year alone at school, misses Yuanxia like crazy, misses his grandparents who passed away, misses his parents and sisters who are far away in the sky, but he can't catch any of them. , Cigarettes are really hard to smoke, my lungs hurt from choking, the wine is not good, I have to vomit after drinking, and I have a stomach problem that I haven't had for a long time.

Seeing him not moving, Yuan Xia couldn't help pulling him out of the bed: "Get up and get dressed, go to the hospital!"

As soon as Yu Xing opened his eyes and looked at Yuan Xia, he looked so good-looking when he was angry, but just looking at him like this made his heart burst into bloom.

Yuan Xia looked at the man who was still frowning and screaming for pain just now, but now there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help reaching out to pinch his face: "How big is a person, why is he still as willful as a child. If there is anything that can't be solved, Want to drink and smoke to relieve boredom? Are you really broken in love?"

Yu Xingyi put on his clothes obediently, shook his head and said, "No. I miss home, I miss my grandparents, my parents and my sister." And you.

When Yuan Xia heard it, he felt uncomfortable again: "Did you see the old house and think about others?"

Yu Xing nodded.

Yuan Xia went to look at the thermos bottle, there was still half a pot of water, but it was completely cold.He carried two kettles, one of which belonged to He Yongqing, and said, "I'll fetch water for you to wash your face. I'll go see a doctor in a while and have a meal. I thought you were good at taking care of yourself, but it turned out to be a mess."

Yu Xingyi said: "The water ticket is in the table bucket."

"I will buy it." Yuan Xia said and left without looking back.

The corners of Yu Xing's mouth raised high, Yuan Xia came, and he felt that his stomach pain was relieved, Yuan Xia was his medicine.
