The boss is dressed as cannon fodder
75, 1970s Science and Technology Development 15
After finally repairing the big truck that Director Wang wanted, Jiang He asked someone to notify Director Wang to pick up the truck.
When Factory Manager Wang saw the big truck, he was so moved that he almost shed tears.
He only spent a few thousand yuan to get a large truck for the steel plant. From now on, the steel plant will finally have no shortage of delivery trucks.
A new truck of this size costs more than 40,000 yuan on the market. After the steel factory cut back on costs and bought two trucks and a jeep that was just a show-stopper, it could no longer afford a third one.
Those two trucks were utilized to the extreme, and one of them often broke down, but there was no way, the steel plant had too many goods to transport.
Jiang He silently handed over the bill, and Director Wang handed over the money without even frowning.
Compared to a new car, these are small sums of money.
Jiang He smiled brightly, he liked it so cheerfully, "little money" was also money.
After admiring the big truck, Factory Manager Wang had a smile on his face and calculations in his eyes: "Comrade Jiang He, if I find an old truck again..."
Before Jiang He could speak, Xia Dazhi stepped forward and held Director Wang's hand tightly.
"No problem at all!" Xia Dazhi said with excitement, "Why don't you come to my house for a meal and let's discuss purchasing for the canteen of the steel plant... Hey, it's not where you go to buy groceries anyway, look at it. How’s our team’s food?”
Factory Manager Wang was driven out of the farm and was dragged by Xia Dazhi to inspect the vegetable fields of villagers.
Driver Xiao Wang couldn't wait to get in the car and pulled Jiang He into the passenger seat.
"Leave my uncle alone, I'll try driving again."
At first, driver Xiao Wang thought it was his illusion. After he got started, he found that this big truck was really easy to drive.
After he checked the performance of the car, driver Xiao Wang was simply heartbroken.
"Dahe, I think your charge is too low!" Driver Xiao Wang decided to trick Uncle Wang, "You must have modified the engine system, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy."
Today's big trucks are very hard to drive. It's not that a strong man can't be the driver. The steering wheel and brakes all require strength.
As for this big truck, in the opinion of driver Xiao Wang, even a woman can drive it and it doesn't pick anyone at all.
Driver Xiao Wang couldn't put it down. He decided to apply to drive this big truck when he went back. No one could compete with him!
Hearing what driver Xiao Wang said, Jiang He strongly disagreed, "Women can do what men can do, and it's no big deal if they can drive."
Because Captain Xia recently wanted to achieve the goal of 100% school-age children going to school, Jiang He, the team favorite, was sent by him to convince the most stubborn people. Because he strongly advocated for school-age children in the village to go to school, regardless of gender, Captain Xia is now very sensitive to the preference for boys over girls and cannot listen to the words that women are inferior to men.
He said with a serious face: "Comrade Xiao Wang, I think the driver profession should not be gender-discriminatory."
Driver Xiao Wang didn't understand Jiang He's anger, "But I don't dare to think that one day a woman will drive a big truck. If there is, it will definitely be a woman who is as tall and thick as a man."
Jiang He snorted, "Don't worry, women can drive trucks, trains, even airplanes and tanks in the future."
As long as the country is not blind, it can see the effect of its new engine. As long as the new engine is installed, the car will save fuel and labor, and women can drive it.
Jiang He thought about the letter sent by Ye Aijun, about the investment promotion conference, about cheating foreigners out of their money, and why it sounded so to his liking.
The villagers came over to look at the big truck and couldn't help but be envious.
"Why did the captain buy a used car instead of a big truck?"
Although they have tractors and small trucks, the big trucks look bigger and more majestic.
Jiang He jumped out of the car and said to the villagers: "Everyone, this big truck is not easy to use. It is not as practical as our small truck."
Before the villagers could speak, driver Xiao Wang became worried, "What should I say? Is there something wrong with this big truck?"
"No problem." Jiang He pointed to the traces left by the big trucks. "How can the roads in our village withstand the damage of big trucks? Let alone big trucks, it is difficult for small trucks to travel when it rains."
The villagers also sighed, "It's our fault that we didn't build the road well, otherwise we could have used big trucks."
Both of them were extremely frustrated. When the captain asked the village to build roads, most people were lazy at that time and secretly cursed the captain for being meddlesome. Why would a road that can be walked on two legs be built so neatly?
Well now, their big truck is flying!
The villagers looked at the big truck that was about to be driven back to the steel plant. They were so heartbroken that they couldn't breathe. They just wanted to kill themselves for being lazy in the first place.

It was a few days after Jiang He repaired the generator that the villagers watched in wonder at the square.
When the lightbulb came on, the crowd cheered.
"It's bright, it's bright."
The little child also kept staring at the light bulb, "Wow, it's really bright! I can see the hairs in daddy's nostrils."
The little kid who spoke carelessly received a heavy slap on the butt. He couldn't cry until his father lifted him up to look at the light bulb.
Xia Qinghe stood outside the crowd and looked up at the electric lights in the square.
"Brother Dahe, are you unhappy? Isn't the light very bright?" she asked in confusion.
Jiang He said unhappily: "The generator is a bit noisy. I tried many methods but couldn't eliminate the sound."
Xia Qinghe listened carefully, "Is it noisy? I think it's okay."
Jiang He still shook his head, "The technology can keep up, but the materials can't." Sure enough, it would be better to have a laboratory, otherwise he would be fixing old things. He is not a repairman.
The square was extremely lively. Xia Dazhi stood on a high place, cleared his throat, and said some exciting words.
Jiang He and the village drivers Dalin and Chunsheng carefully explained how to turn the generator on and off, and let them take over later. He didn't have the time to do this, someone had to take over.
Dalin and Chunsheng were the first drivers selected in the village. They were flexible and smart. They memorized Jiang He's words carefully, nodded repeatedly, and said, "Brother Dahe, after we learn it, we will teach others."
In addition to them, there are two drivers in the village who later learned to drive.
Jiang He said approvingly: "Next time when I repair the car, you guys will come over too. From now on, you can start fixing some simple problems."
Dalin was extremely moved, Brother Dahe was his benefactor!
Like Jiang He's family, his family was both orphaned and widowed. His mother was not in good health and could not work in the fields to earn work points. He grew up in poverty, and it was not until he became a driver that he enjoyed the first meal in his life. A full meal.
There are a lot of brothers in Chunsheng's family, but after his parents spent money on marrying wives for the first two brothers, the following brothers were about to become singles. Fortunately, Chunsheng became the driver, and seeing that his family was about to start a business, the two brothers in front of him finally had someone. Come to propose marriage.
Jiang He felt uncomfortable being looked at with respect and admiration by two grown men of similar age to him. "In addition to cars, you will also have to take care of generators in the future. Please work harder..."
The two drivers shook their heads violently and said piously: "It's not hard, it's not hard."
What an honor it was to keep the generator, they could laugh out loud in their dreams!
Xia Qinghe watched from a distance as Jiang He taught the two young men how to turn on and off the generator, and found that Jiang He seemed a little absent-minded. He didn't know what Brother Dahe was thinking.
Her teacher once told her that although a man needs an old woman who asks him to take off his clothes when he is hot, adds clothes to him when he is cold, cooks for him when he is hungry, and feeds him water when he is thirsty, a man needs a soul mate even more - —The happiest thing is the soul-to-soul understanding.
Seeing the river climbing higher and higher, Xia Qinghe was not afraid. She had to work harder. When she climbed to the same height, she would probably understand what Brother Dahe was thinking.
After Jiang He finished giving instructions, he walked out of the crowd and took Xia Qinghe's hand.
"What's wrong?" He was careful and noticed something was wrong in Xia Qinghe's expression for a moment.
The crowd has gone away, the noise is no longer, only the light of the electric lights in the square is like stars in the sky.
Xia Qinghe didn't want to say it, but he couldn't hide it, so he had to hesitate to express his uneasiness.
"So that's it." Jiang He touched her head and said with a smile, "If you have any questions next time, just ask me. I will never dislike you. I also have many shortcomings. Let's make progress together."
Hearing his words, Xia Qinghe seemed to take reassurance, "Then I want to know what Brother Dahe is thinking, his face is so serious."
Jiang He didn't have the straight-minded idea these days that men should do big things and women should get out of here.
He thought for a while and said: "I was thinking about Brother Ye's letter. He said that there will be an investment fair next year and he wants to trick foreigners..."
Xia Qinghe's eyes lit up, "Can I go too? I'm learning a foreign language now..." She lowered her head and said with some embarrassment, "Although I don't speak very well, I think there is still one year left, and basic conversations should be gone. question."
Jiang He held her hand and said with a smile in his voice, "Okay, then I hope Qing He will be my translator."
There was another thing he liked about Xia Qinghe. She knew that he would fly higher and higher, but what she did was not hold his hand to stop him from flying further, but she did her best to accompany him in flying.
Xia Qinghe looked at the smile on his lips and secretly made up his mind to study hard, otherwise he would be embarrassed if he couldn't understand what foreigners said.

The next time he goes to the provincial capital to sell mountain products, Jiang He will go with him.
He didn't want to go, but the brigade wanted to buy a color TV set, and everyone agreed that only he could pick out the best color TV set.
The provincial capital is different from the small town where they are located. There are actually six or seven-story buildings.
Dalin pointed to the seven-story department store and said to Jiang He: "The first time I saw such a tall building, I was shocked. I heard that the provincial capital is planning to build an elevator building with more than ten floors. I really dare not Imagine what it’s like.”
Jiang He was noncommittal. Wait until you see the hundreds-story buildings in the future before saying this.
The provincial capital is very lively, and people dress more boldly and brightly. Unlike their small towns, which are either black or gray, the gray color makes them look depressing.
Dalin was familiar with the road and pulled a cart of mountain goods to the textile factory. After a while, a group of people came to lift everything down.
After counting the goods, the person in charge handed them the money and tickets, and asked eagerly: "When will you come back next time?"
Dalin looked embarrassed, "There are other factories also asking us for mountain goods..."
The person in charge of the textile factory gritted his teeth and said, "We still have some defective goods, do you want them?"
Jiang He looked at the side and secretly marveled. Dalin really looked like Captain Xia. Judging from the business success - could it be that when his father-in-law chose a driver, he specifically selected someone with the qualifications of a profiteer?
Dalin's face finally showed joy, and he said quickly: "Uncle, I won't take advantage of you. Let's do this. I plan to send these dried vegetables to my relatives' houses. I will bring them over this time for everyone to taste fresh."
The person in charge looked at the large baskets of dried vegetables, and all the discomfort in his heart disappeared, and he also smiled and said: "My little brother knows how to be a good person, so I won't be polite."
After leaving the textile factory, Jiang He slapped Dalin on the shoulder.
"Dalin did a good job! He has the style of a captain. Maybe he can take over the captain's job in the future." He gave a thumbs up to praise.
Dalin was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Brother Dahe, don't you plan to take over the captain's job?"
Jianghe shook his head and said without thinking: "I'm not interested."
If he wanted to be the captain of Hongyun, Ye Aijun would definitely come and capture him to the capital. Besides, being a captain is too time-consuming, and Jianghe doesn't like to care about these trivial matters.
Dalin scratched his head and finally felt a little embarrassed, "Brother Dahe, let's find a place to rest first, and buy a color TV tomorrow morning."
Then the two of them ate something casually and found a hotel with high security to stay.
Jianghe didn't mean to invite him to a restaurant, for fear that if he started it, they would find excuses to eat and drink with public funds in the future, which would corrupt the atmosphere.

Li Hongmei came back from the field and just opened the door, and Xia Qinghe hurriedly brought cold water.
She complained, "Mom, you've worked hard! I told you to go to the fields with me, but you look so tired."
Li Hongmei gulped down the water and waved her hand at her daughter, "That won't do. You're getting married in half a month, and it won't look good if you get tanned. And your hands have finally become thinner, but if you go to the fields with me, won't they become rough?"
Daughters need to be pampered, but they don't have the conditions in the countryside, and they can only take a break and pamper themselves at home during the period before marriage.
Mrs. Xia, who came in after Li Hongmei, agreed very much, "Mom is right! And there can't be no one at home, the kids are very naughty, and no one can watch them."
Second Mrs. Xia also had something to say, "And someone has to cook, right? We've worked so hard these days, and if we want to eat something good, we have to let Qinghe cook, and the dishes cooked by my sister-in-law are not that good."
Mrs. Xia pretended to be angry, "If you think my cooking is not good, you come."
It's time for dinner, and the Xia family is full of laughter.
Xia Qinghe looked at the harmonious family and felt a little reluctant to leave when she thought about getting married in half a month.
"Dahe is going to the provincial capital with Dalin to sell mountain products this time. Is it okay for the two of them?" Li Hongmei was worried about Jianghe. "His father, you should go with him."
Xia Qinghe's chopsticks stopped unconsciously.
"Don't worry, it's fine." Xia Dazhi said with certainty, "I explored the route last time, Dalin has been there too, nothing will happen."
Li Hongmei didn't know what to say, so she turned to talk about her younger daughter, "His father, Qinghe will get married in half a month, Jianghe sent such a generous betrothal gift, our small wedding banquet can't be too embarrassing."
"Zhu Yidao from the meat processing factory said that he would leave more than ten pounds of meat and five sets of pig intestines and livers for us." Xia Dazhi said with certainty, "Dahe is like giving him a bicycle for free, he is also honest, and pig offal is not worth money."
"You can also ask for some pig bones, it's delicious when stewed with sauerkraut."
Li Hongmei calculated the menu of the small wedding banquet. In this day and age, it is a luxury to have a meat dish on the table at a wedding banquet. People with less money only have vegetables, tofu and eggs, and a dish of pig offal as a meat dish. The richness of their small banquet is comparable to that of other people's big banquets.
Of course, this is also because Hongyun Village started selling mountain products, and the family has accumulated some extra money, so they can do this.
Xia Qinghe, who was standing by, was a little worried, fearing that the wedding banquet would empty the family's pockets, and even had to borrow money to hold the wedding banquet, not knowing when she could pay it back.
"Mom, it's okay to be frugal." She said softly, "Brother Dahe doesn't mind these things."
Local wedding banquets are divided into two sessions, one at the bride's house at noon, which is called a small banquet, and the other at the groom's house at night, which is a big banquet... Of course, now that everyone is generally poor, many brides don't hold it, and go directly to the groom's house.
"That won't work." Li Hongmei retorted, "Dahe sent so many betrothal gifts, if we don't hold it, people will say something." Although their family would not withhold these betrothal gifts, Dahe sent so many things, they had to have an attitude.
Big Brother Xia and Second Brother Xia also nodded in agreement, "Qinghe, we only have one sister in our family, if we don't hold it, people will think we don't value you."
The elders and men in the family said so, so Big Sister Xia and Second Sister Xia naturally had nothing to say.
As for the children, they were happy just because they had delicious food, and they even wished the wedding banquet would come sooner.
Xia Qinghe bit the green vegetables, feeling sweet in her heart.
She was really happier than those girls in the village. She was loved by her parents, married to someone she liked and who had outstanding character and talent, and her mother-in-law was also easy to get along with.
When it got dark, Xia Dazhi looked at the sky, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, worried that someone would have bad thoughts.
Except for Dalin, who was traveling with him, he didn't tell anyone that Dahe took a lot of tickets to buy color TVs this time, and specifically told them to stay in the city for one more night and not to walk at night, worried that it would be unsafe.
**
The next day, Dalin and Jianghe went straight to the department store.
After they walked around, Dalin looked at Jianghe with admiration. When he saw the seven-story department store for the first time, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He was not as calm as Dahe.
Jiang He looked at the color TV with dissatisfaction and said directly: "It's too small."
"Brother Da He, this color TV is already very big." Da Lin looked at the color TV with awe and curiosity. He had never even seen a black and white TV, and he bought a color TV right away.
"There are so many people in our team. If you have poor eyesight, you can't see anything if you sit far away."
Da Lin thought of the money from selling mountain products and suggested: "How about we buy two more in the future?"
The mountain products are selling well, and the villagers have more money, so they will definitely be happy to buy another color TV.
Jiang He shook his head, "Forget it, it's so bulky and has a small screen. I might as well build one myself for everyone to see."
The salesman snorted from his nose and showed a mocking look on his face.
This one looked like a country bumpkin from a mountain valley. He was bragging.
The salesman asked impatiently: "How are you going to send it back? Do you have a bullock cart? We don't provide delivery?"
Da Lin saw the sarcasm in the salesman's eyes, straightened up, and said proudly: "We have cars in Hongyun Brigade, and more than one."
Until the salesman helped put the color TV on the small truck and saw the words "Hongyun Brigade" on the small truck, the mockery on his face unconsciously disappeared.
Really have a car?
By the way, since buying a color TV must mean that the brigade has electricity, is there such a rich production team in their province? Not only has a car, but also has electricity?
**
When the two returned to the brigade, everyone in the brigade was in an uproar.
The villagers didn't even have a good dinner. Some even took their rice bowls and went to the square to watch Jiang He install a TV.
In those days, TV signals had to be received by antennas. Long antennas were hung on bamboo poles and kept turning to receive the best channels.
The square was as lively as the New Year. Children were running and laughing, and adults were talking and laughing happily. Everyone's eyes swept across the TV on the stage from time to time.
Grandma Li sat in the front, rubbed her eyes, and repeatedly asked her grandson next to her, "Is there really someone singing and dancing in that big box for us to watch?"
The grandson didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Grandma, I've said it many times that the program was recorded and put on TV. It's like a photo taking a person's image for us to see."
Several grandpas and grandmas looked as if they had suddenly realized something.
"No wonder I was wondering how could there be such a small person. Look at how big that big box is."
"That's not right. Photos can't be moved. Doesn't the TV have sound and figures?"
The poor student's grandson scratched his head, "Grandma, I don't understand such a profound question, but Brother Dahe must understand."
Several grandparents agreed, "So you have to study hard and follow Dahe to build bicycles and cars in the future."
The grandson looked longing, "I heard that Brother Dahe is so good after only seven years of school! Grandma, I'm a little dumber than Brother Dahe, but I will definitely be able to build cars after eight years of school."
Li Grandma patted her grandson's hand, "That's right, we can drive away the devils of Jiaoben Country in eight years, so what's the big deal about building a car."
A little girl ran over and said to her grandmother, "Grandma, I can also build a bicycle."
The little girl's grandmother frowned, "The little girl is quite ambitious..."
Grandma Li disagreed and said, "Cuihua, Dahe said that girls are no worse than boys! Maybe Zhaodi can really build a bicycle when she grows up."
Grandma Cuihua snorted unhappily. Boys can build cars after studying, but she can only build a bicycle, which shows that girls are still not as good as boys.
Facing the expectation in the little girl's eyes, she had to say, "Since grandma promised to let you study, you should work hard."
The little girl nodded vigorously. She must work hard, otherwise grandma would definitely not be happy to let her study.
