"By the way, Lao Wang, does anyone in your maintenance class smoke leaves?

I brought a lot of tobacco leaves from the Northeast! You can give some to the brothers." Zhang Junping picked up a large bundle of tobacco leaves from the rack of the cart.

In this era, many BJ people smoked leaves, bags and pots.

"Oh, thank you, Section Chief Zhang! This is Guandong cigarette, which is not cheap in BJ.

Let me thank Section Chief Zhang on behalf of everyone!" Lao Wang happily thanked him.

Zhang Junping divided more than half of the tobacco leaves and handed them to Lao Wang. Lao Wang grinned and nodded and thanked Zhang Junping.

Then he gave the remaining tobacco leaves to Master Ma from the woodwork factory.

Master Ma also thanked him profusely.

After delivering the tobacco leaves, Zhang Junping said a few polite words to Master Ma, then turned and entered the house.

Inside the house, the electrician was removing the original wires.

"Master, can you cut a small slot in the wall, first put the wires into a thin plastic tube, then put the plastic tube into the wire trough, and finally seal the wire trough with cement.

In this way, the wires will not be visible from the outside, and the overall appearance will be more beautiful." Zhang Junping asked, looking at the electrician who was removing the wires.

"Chief Zhang, according to what you said, it does look good, but our bureau doesn't have such thin plastic pipes."

"That's okay, I'll find a solution." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Chief Zhang, if you want to do the wiring like that, it's best to use the kind of switch you find in big hotels. Our bureau doesn't have this either." An electrician suggested to Zhang Junping with a smile.

"Okay, I'll find a way to do this."

"If that switch is replaced, it won't be suitable to use this kind of light bulb anymore, right?

Finally, I changed it to a light stick." Another electrician added with a smile.

"You're right, I'll find a solution for this." Zhang Junping smiled and nodded.

Yes, I originally wanted to make some suggestions, but ended up blocking a lot of work for myself.

It shouldn't be difficult to find a plastic pipe with a diameter of about one centimeter. Even if you can't find a plastic pipe, you can still find a steel pipe.

As for PVC pipes, don't even think about it. They didn't exist in this era. It wasn't until 1983 that the production technology of PVC pipes was introduced in China.

Zhang Junping is thinking about whether plastic pipes can replace PVC pipes.

Zhang Junping first went to a hardware and electrical store, which sells plastic pipes.

However, none are that thin, and the smallest one is only an inch long.

Zhang Junping picked up a one-inch plastic water pipe and studied it, and felt that it was not unusable.

It's just a matter of making the groove deeper and wider.

"Xiao Wang, how many of these one-inch plastic pipes are there in the warehouse?"

"Chief Zhang, let me ask you something."

"Well, I want two kilometers of this kind of water pipe. You can make an order for me first, and then you can send it to my house, over there at Dashilan.

If we don’t have enough in the warehouse, we go to the manufacturer to transfer supplies.”

Zhang Junping considered that his next step was to divert tap water to toilets and shower rooms, so he simply bought more.

"Okay!" Salesperson Xiao Wang readily issued a sales slip to Zhang Junping, and then Zhang Junping paid the money.

Looking at Zhang Junping's leaving figure, Xiao Wang couldn't help but sigh, they are both leaders, why is there such a big gap?

In the morning, a leader from the bureau came to buy something, but he did this and that, just to take advantage of the public.

Just take it if you want, don't be too nagging and act like a leader.

Of course, Xiao Wang did not dare to say these words in front of the leader. He could only complain and show contempt behind his back.

Zhang Junping asked and found that the hardware and electrical store did not have the switch Zhang Junping wanted.

If you don't have it in the hardware store, you can't buy it anywhere else.

That's not right, there is another place, and that is the Friendship Store.

Friendship Store is a privileged store in China, which sells goods from all over the country, as well as various goods imported from abroad.

Food, non-staple food, tobacco and alcohol, clothing, shoes and hats, electronic products, etc. Anyway, in the Friendship Store, there are only products you can’t think of and there is nothing you can’t buy.

When Zhang Junping returned to Dashilan, it was almost time to get off work.

Zhang Junping invited Lao Wang's men and Lao Ma to go to Quanjude in Dashilan for a roast duck meal.

If we all want to work together in the future, we should contact each other in advance.

"Master Ma, this is Lao Wang, the monitor of our maintenance team.

You should all know each other, right?"

"acknoledged!"

"know!"

“Then I’ll leave it to you to renovate my yard and furnish it!

Let me toast you all!" Zhang Junping raised his glass and said to Lao Wang, Lao Ma and others.

"Chief Zhang, you're welcome!"

"Chief Zhang, leave it to me, don't worry!"

"Thank you for your hard work, you two. When the work is finished, I will treat you in Donglaishun to celebrate everyone." Zhang Junping smiled and clinked glasses with everyone one by one. Bayi Chinese website

After eating, Zhang Junping left Lao Wang alone.

"Lao Wang, see if you can find someone who can cook. I'll give you two yuan a day to help with the cooking these days.

After all, it’s very troublesome for ten or twenty people to eat every day.” Zhang Junping was trying to sell Lao Wang a favor.

Although Lao Wang is the squad leader of the maintenance team in the bureau, his identity is only that of a worker.

There must be some poor relatives in the family.

Zhang Junping asked him to find someone to cook, so naturally he would be taken care of.

"Section Chief Zhang...well, my mother-in-law is busy at home, how about I ask her to cook for everyone.

There’s no need to pay, it’s just free time anyway, just take care of the food.” Lao Wang hesitated and said.

"Old Wang, this doesn't work, you have to get paid to work.

How can I ask my sister-in-law to help me for nothing?

Let my sister-in-law come over tomorrow! She will take care of two meals a day, noon and evening." Zhang Junping smiled and patted Lao Wang on the shoulder.

"Thank you, Section Chief Zhang!"

Zhang Junping waved his hand, got on his bicycle and drove away.

Zhang Junping rode his bicycle to Dashilan.

When he came to the backyard, he opened the cellar door and went down to the cellar.

This cellar was originally there.

Here in BJ, almost every household used to have a cellar for storing cabbage, radishes and the like.

Zhang Junping went down to the cellar and released all the medicinal wine in the museum space.

These medicinal wines always remain in the space in the same state as when they were first put in.

Leaving it there for ten years has no effect.

There are more than five hundred jars of medicinal wine, filling the cellar to the brim.

Looking at the medicinal wine piled in the cellar, Zhang Junping was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

The prescriptions used for these medicinal wines were prepared by him himself.

It contains ginseng and tiger penis wine, ginseng and tiger bone wine, ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum wine, and Shiquanda tonic wine.

Looking at the wine in the cellar, Zhang Junping was proud for a while and then became depressed.

With so many medicinal wines, I don’t know who will get the advantage in the end.

Anyway, he doesn't need these medicinal wines.

When he thought of this, Zhang Junping's excitement suddenly disappeared.

Close the cellar door and lock it with a big lock.

Finally, he locked the courtyard door and left Dashilar on his bicycle.

After returning home, Zhang Junping washed up, laid out rice paper, and started painting.

Whatever you promised to Yang Ying and others, you must do it. This is Zhang Junping's consistent principle.
