Chapter 34: The first time in Yangcheng
This season is the busiest time for Zhang Mei.
Needless to say, the scope of the Cultural and Education Bureau is wide, but education alone is very troublesome. Every year from June to July, it is the peak period of the exam. There are crowds of all kinds of junior high school entrance examinations and college entrance examinations. Now the college entrance examination has resumed, and the above and below attach great importance to the issues of the exam. As the actual leader of the Cultural and Education Bureau, Zhang Mei must take every exam, and she is the first in the examination leadership group, so she has no time to greet a few children in the past two months.
After all, Fan Ting and Fan Kang are older. Fortunately, it is always worrying that Fan Wubing has wandered around at home, especially since he set up a pig farm a while ago. Now, except for the three Wang brothers, he has hired six or seven breeders. This situation makes Zhang Mei feel very troubled.
Although reform and opening up have been made, the change in people's ideological concepts cannot be solved by holding a few meetings in the following documents. Many people have expressed doubts about the future of reform and doubts about the rationality and legitimacy of reform and opening up. For example, on the issue of individual economy, what are the limits of individual economy? How many people can be hired? Is there exploitation? Does it conform to socialist theory? And so on.
Zhang Mei often attends various meetings in the city. She has listened to many such topics and talked about them. She has more knowledge of the complexity contained in it. Therefore, she is worried about Fan Wubing's pig farm. If Fan Wubing's pig farm expands one day, it will definitely cause all kinds of criticism. There is no clear statement on how to determine the above policies. There is an old saying among Chinese people that the rafters that have come out rot first, which is really hard to say.
Therefore, when Fan Wubing proposed to go to Guangzhou with Fan Heng, Zhang Mei agreed more.
"I'm going on a business trip in Guangzhou, what are you doing?" Fan Heng thought to bring such a small tail, do he still have time to do anything?
"You can do your business, Fan Wubing can follow you. He doesn't cry, make a fuss or run around. What's the point of worrying about you? As long as you arrange his food and accommodation, there's no problem." Zhang Mei was very relieved about her youngest son.
Fan Wubing immediately nodded and smiled when he heard this, "Don't worry, mom, as long as I'm watching, dad will not dare to think randomly!"
Fan Heng was speechless when he heard this. It turned out that Zhang Mei was so relieved that she still had a political task to let Fan Wubing go to Guangzhou. She would not be able to say anything now, otherwise she would have a ghost in her heart.
So after a day of preparation, the father and son, together with the inspection team, ten people boarded the train heading south.
The trains during this period were really fast. Fan Wubing had only been taking a day and felt very difficult to resist. He thought that the idea of deciding to go south was really wrong. He calculated it very much, but it would be a little less. It is now 1979, not 2,080. The journey of two or three days would probably take more than a week.
Fortunately, it was not the peak of the bus ride, nor the subsequent wave of migrant workers. The carriage was quite spacious. Despite this, Fan Wubing still felt unbearable after eating on the dining car for a few days. Fortunately, his body was quite strong at this time. After stubborn for a few days, he finally arrived at Guangzhou Station.
It was also in the early stage of reform and was also located in mainland China, but the environment in Guangzhou was unmatched by other places. The brothers had already received news of Fan Heng and his group's arrival and specially sent a car to pick up the station.
Fan Heng and others got off the car and saw people picking up people in the crowded crowds outside holding various big signs. In addition, there were also many small hotel staff coming to solicit customers. Not long after, they saw the target.
"Are they comrades from Pingyuan Machinery Factory?" The other party also saw them and hurriedly squeezed over and asked.
"Yes, you are comrades from Tongfeng Company, aren't you?" Fan Heng asked with the man holding his hand.
As soon as the two sides met, they immediately joined the same place enthusiastically, and those who helped carry their luggage and handed them forward with herbal tea cups. They each had their own division of labor. After squeezing among the crowd for five minutes, they left the square of the station and came to the front of their car.
It took more than half an hour to pull Fan Heng and others to the guesthouse.
Everyone was the same. As soon as they put down their luggage, they took a shower and changed their clothes. After more than half an hour, they finally stopped. People from Tongfeng Company also did things, left a lot of fruits, arranged food and accommodation for everyone, and then said goodbye, saying that the comrades first arrived today and were tired of the journey, so they didn't arrange any programs. They would send people to pick them up and take a look around tomorrow morning, and then visit the factory the day after tomorrow.
Fan Heng thanked the people on behalf of the inspection team, and went out to see the guests off. He watched the other party's car walk away before returning.
"Huh? Where did this guy Fan Wubing go?" Who knew that after walking away for less than two minutes, Fan Heng couldn't help but be very annoyed.
At this time, Fan Wubing was naturally like a wild horse with a reins off, and no longer had any restraint. He wanted to see the clothing processing equipment he had booked as soon as possible.
There were landlines in the guesthouse. Fan Wubing paid two dollars and cursed the telecom operator in his heart that he was so ill-fated. He also called according to the contact information left by Qiu Baohua.
"Hey, is it Guangzhou Tongsheng Trading Co., Ltd.? I'm looking for Qiu Baohua--" Fan Wubing asked loudly after dialing the phone.
The phone signal was really not very good at that time. The machine I used was also an old-fashioned circular keyboard dialing phone. The noise inside the receiver was also very loud. In addition, the other party was in a mess and didn't know what he was doing. Fan Wubing shouted three times in a row, but he couldn't figure out what Lao Guang was saying on the other side.
Just when Fan Wubing felt unbearable, someone finally spoke Mandarin, "Hey, I am Qiu Baohua, who are you?"
"I finally found someone who can speak Mandarin! I am Fan Wubing! I am in Guangzhou now!" Fan Wubing was overjoyed, but thought in his heart that this language was really troublesome. This shows how wise the country's decision to promote Mandarin is!
"Fan Wubing?! You've arrived in Guangzhou?! Is this true?! Where are you now? I'll pick you up in person-" Qiu Baohua immediately shouted in surprise after reacting.
After asking the waiter at the guesthouse for the address, Fan Wubing talked about the situation with Qiu Baohua, and then hung up the phone.
When she turned around and left, Fan Wubing heard two young waitresses whispering. Although she couldn't hear it clearly, the general idea was, "Whose child is so powerful, he actually calls himself, I'm afraid he's a high-ranking official!"
