The move Zhou Bingkun used against Zhou Rong is called cutting off food in the art of war.
The reason why Zhou Rong was so comfortable staying in the rural areas of Guizhou was that she was married, had children, and was able to both teach and educate herself.
It's all on Li Suhua's side, who subsidizes two-thirds of the money Zhou Zhigang sends back every month, which solves Zhou Rong's worries.
As long as you don’t have to worry about your livelihood, Guizhou’s beautiful scenery will be loved by everyone who visits it.
After the food is cut off, you can watch Zhou Rong eating bran-thick vegetables in the countryside.
Zhou Bingkun was waiting to see if Zhou Rong could really drink enough love.
Even when I don't have enough to eat, I am still busy finding a partner, getting married, and having a daughter.
In this case, Zhou Bingkun's income is quite a lot. The system sign-in can earn about 20 yuan per month, and the salary is 18 yuan per month. The money sent back by Zhou Zhigang will be retained at 20 yuan every month.
In other words, it is very close to where Zhou Bingkun can buy a bicycle. It only takes three months to save money to buy it.
Zhou Bingkun agreed so readily that it embarrassed Li Suhua. Li Suhua was really just trying to be polite to Zhou Bingkun. In fact, the real plan was to send the money to Zhou Rong: "Kun, are you not in such a hurry to buy a bicycle? You usually go to school. Wouldn’t it be nice to take the train after get off work?”
"Mom, when I go to and from get off work, I have to go to the bus half an hour early every day. If I can't get on the bus, or if I miss a class, I will be late. What kind of business should I be late if I am late every three days? What should the leaders of the factory do?
What do you think of me? What future do I have in the factory? Buying a bicycle is a major event that affects my life. I really can’t delay it.
Let’s talk about Zhou Rong again. She responded to the country’s call to support rural construction. The rations and materials for the first season were all allocated directly by the organization. She can’t be blamed for my sister. She will definitely not be hungry or cold.”
Even though she often chats with people on the street and gets a lot of gossip, after all, Li Suhua is just an ordinary housewife and doesn't have that much knowledge.
What Zhou Bingkun said was true, so of course Li Suhua believed Zhou Bingkun. I don’t know that even the rations of these young people who went to the countryside were just enough to make a living.
Zhou Rong, who was used to living a "good" life in the city with a father who was an eighth-level worker and having enough to eat, could not possibly know how to save and plan.
The allotted food will be eaten soon, and starvation is unavoidable.
Feng Huacheng was sent to the countryside. It would be good if he could support himself, but it was impossible for him to have the ability to support Zhou Rong.
"Oh... I'll give you the money first. After you buy a bicycle, mom will start sending money to Zhou Rong." Li Suhua sighed and agreed.
That is to say, Li Suhua is not too partial to Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong.
If Li Suhua and Zhou Zhigang were as partial to their daughters, Zhou Bingkun would not be able to succeed today.
"Well, when I develop well in the factory and make more money, Mom, you can help Zhou Rong more in the future."
How to make Li Suhua happy, Zhou Bingkun can also do it. Without Zhou Rong to compare, Zhou Bingkun's ability is enough.
As for Li Suhua wanting to send money to Zhou Rong after buying the bicycle, that was also impossible.
All the money was planned by Zhou Bingkun, and was arranged first with "three turns and one ring".
If you don't have these things at home, how can you show Zhou Zhigang's status as an eighth-level ceiling tilelayer with high technical skills?
If you want to buy all these things, it will cost at least five to six hundred yuan.
Based on the money Zhou Zhigang sent back, I can save twenty yuan every month.
At least within two or three years, Li Suhua will not think about sending money to Zhou Rong.
The three-year period has passed, and Zhou Bingkun has also passed his twentieth birthday and reached the legal age for marriage.
If you want to find a partner or marry a wife, it would be even more ridiculous to spend money. Zhou Bingkun can make it for you no matter how much money you have.
…
Next, Zhou Bingkun worked as a porter in a wood processing factory for three months with peace of mind.
Zhou Bingkun also saw Tu Zhiqiang enter the factory and was assigned to the handling class, and he and Zhou Bingkun were in the same work group.
Even if a prisoner is released early, he can still work as a worker in a wood processing factory.
Thank you very much. Lao Tu was trying to save people. The factory is giving preferential treatment to the children of martyrs.
Even if Lao Tu felt sorry for Tu Zhiqiang in some ways before, he made up for it all at once.
Although Tu Zhiqiang was released early after everyone petitioned him.
But the people in the factory did this all because Lao Tu sacrificed himself to save others and for Lao Tu's sake.
People in the factory really looked down upon Tu Zhiqiang.
This era is not as kind to these things as later generations.
Tu Zhiqiang's experience can be regarded as life capital, capital to show off. Being an Internet celebrity is just the right amount of money.
The country's attitude remains the same, believing that it is never an honorable experience to experience this kind of thing.
Although they were in the same team, both were in phototype films, and they had known each other before, Xiao Guoqing and Sun Qianchao had no regard for Tu Zhiqiang at all.
Zhou Bingkun was the only one in the entire transport team who could treat Tu Zhiqiang normally and not look at him strangely.
I understand that we should still give these people a chance to survive in society again and have a few simple conversations occasionally.
But Zhou Bingkun also knew that Tu Zhiqiang's sexual orientation was abnormal, and his usual attitude was to stay away from him.
The work of a timber porter is not hard at all. After all, it is a public unit and it is impossible to use people as animals.
Although the work is a bit boring, there is nothing wrong with doing it for a short period of time.
For Zhou Bingkun, it is equivalent to exercising.
In the middle of the year, Zhou Bingkun went to the city to take the electrician exam.
To be honest, the electrician exam at this time is quite simple, with a little bit of electrical knowledge from middle and high school, and some simple circuit installation and maintenance practices.
Zhou Bingkun was also familiar with the electrical tools of this era, so there was no reason why he would not be able to pass the test.
In fact, for Zhou Bingkun, who has advanced carpentry skills, there is no job type that he is not good at in the wood processing factory.
But the only person who can change Zhou Bingkun's situation the fastest is the electrician who will organize a unified examination and issue a certificate in the city.
After getting the certificate, Zhou Bingkun went directly to the factory director. Not only was he transferred to the electrician class, he was also exempted from the three-year apprenticeship period.
After being transferred to the electrician class, Zhou Bingkun's job became much easier.
Although the various circuits in the factory are quite easy to break, they are much easier than the porters.
The salary has also increased to the standard salary for a first-level electrician, which is thirty-three yuan.
After a trip to the logistics department, Zhou Bingkun came out with an electrician's tool bag and a cowhide electrician's belt, which looked completely different.
Although everything is second-hand, once equipped, it is as eye-catching as in a wood processing factory.
There are not many skilled jobs in wood processing plants. Any job with technical content will have a superior status in wood processing plants.
"Bingkun, you can do it. I played a big game without saying a word and was transferred to the electrician class." Xiao Guoqing said in surprise.
"Kun'er, how did you get in? Lao Li from the electrician class accepted you as his apprentice?" Zhou Bingkun was dressed as an electrician, making Sun Qianchao's eyes widen.
"No, I didn't accept apprentices. I studied for my electrician certificate by myself, so I entered the electrician class."
"As expected of you, the old Zhou family, everyone can learn. Not to mention your brother and sister, they have all been admitted to key high schools and their grades are still so good. Even you who didn't study well in school can learn by yourself.
I can get an electrician certificate." Xiao Guoqing said.
Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong had such good academic performance, so the fact that Zhou Bingkun taught himself to be an electrician was not so out of the ordinary.
The old Zhou family knew that the original Zhou Bingkun was really not smart, and it was Zhou Zhigang who confirmed this after years of hard lessons.
In the eyes of outsiders who don't understand the truth, both older brothers and younger brothers can study well. Similarly, if Zhou Bingkun doesn't study well, it means that the original Zhou Bingkun doesn't like to study.
"Kun'er, it's a good thing to be in the electrician class. You should treat me to a guest after all." said Qianchao, joining in the fun.
"No problem. Come home with me after get off work and let's have a drink together."
Don't even think about restaurants. Without food stamps, you can't run a restaurant.
There was a sign-in system, and there was no shortage of food or drink. Zhou Bingkun had no need to prepare food stamps.
During this period, Zhou Bingkun really didn't spend much money. He just bought some chickens, ducks and goslings, each costing only ten cents to a few cents, which cost him only one month's salary in total.
Zhou Bingkun saved the remaining money and planned to buy a bicycle as soon as possible.
Being anxious to buy a bicycle is not just an excuse for Zhou Bingkun to take up money.
If you have to commute across districts every day, you really need to buy a bicycle.
It's not Zhou Bingkun who is saving money alone, it's also Xiao Guoqing and Sun Qianchao, whose family conditions are not well-off.
For the convenience of work, everyone is saving money and planning to buy a bicycle first.
After get off work, Zhou Bingkun went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a few bottles of beer.
Two dishes were prepared, one was spicy and sour shredded potatoes and the other was scrambled eggs with sauce, and the three of them had a drink at home.
Because potatoes are cheap and can be used as both a staple food and a vegetable, Li Suhua has prepared a lot of them at home.
The eggs were laid by the chickens Li Suhua raised at home. When the weather gets warm, the hens' egg production reaches its peak.
After the New Year, now, Lao Zhou’s family still has three hens.
Li Suhua takes very good care of these three hens. In addition to letting the hens out to forage freely during the day, Li Suhua also feeds them supplements such as bran and vegetable leaves every day.
On average, three hens can lay two eggs a day.
In addition to Li Suhua's daily use of these eggs to communicate with neighbors, the rest have become the main source of nutritional supplements for mother and child.
In other words, with these eggs, Li Suhua can live more economically.
In addition to the quota for mother and child, Li Suhua will not spend an extra cent.
Zhou Bingkun controlled his own salary and did not hand it over to Li Suhua.
With money in hand, Zhou Bingkun often took home various things signed in the system, and he had a decent income.
After everyone drank two bottles of beer, ate corn flour and flatbread, and then finished the party, everyone went back to their homes.
Li Suhua walked over and asked Zhou Bingkun expectantly:
"Bingkun, I heard some of you drinking people saying that something good happened to you?"
"It's not a big deal, it's just that I changed my position and now I'm working as an electrician."
Li Suhua was not as happy as Zhou Bingkun imagined. Instead, he looked worried: "Bingkun, why did you become an electrician? Do you know how to do this? Or go back to work as a porter. The 'Electric Tiger' is really terrible."
"
"Electric tiger" will have many meanings in the future. After the reform and opening up, it refers to corruption in the power sector, which factories and equipment belong to large electricity consumers. But in the 1960s and 1970s, "electric tiger" can only mean that
Use force safely to describe how dangerous electricity is.
"Mom, I know how to do this. I also got my electrician certificate and was transferred to the electrician class. Don't worry, there won't be any safety problems."
Zhou Bingkun took out his electrician certificate and showed it to Li Suhua.
It doesn't matter if you don't know how to read. What Li Suhua believes in most is the various seals stamped by the government.
As for Zhou Bingkun, he has become a first-class electrician and his salary has been increased by fifteen yuan. Zhou Bingkun did not report a lot of things.
After reading it over and over again and telling Zhou Bingkun to pay attention to safety several times, Li Suhua was temporarily relieved: "Bingkun, since you have such a good thing, write to your father, brother, and sister to say so.
, let them also be happy for you."
"I didn't receive a reply to the letter I sent last time, so I have to write it again." After her husband, son, and daughter left, Li Suhua's addiction to writing letters became more and more intense.
Li Suhua glared, and then said: "Write as long as I ask you to. Where did you come from so many words? Write to your dad first, and tell your dad about your sister's situation."
Zhou Zhigang's favorite daughter, after Zhou Rong went to Guizhou to take care of her.
Knowing that Zhou Zhigang would be angry, he immediately refused to recognize Zhou Zhigang as his father. He wrote letters to his family and Zhou Bingyi, but did not contact Zhou Zhigang.
Although the letter written by Zhou Rong did not have any actual content, Zhou Bingkun had already received three letters from Zhou Rong on behalf of Li Suhua.
Zhou Rong didn't talk about anything practical, she just gave a simple greeting every time, and then wrote a long essay describing the scenery of Guizhou.
Every time I read a letter to Li Suhua, I need Zhou Bingkun to explain and translate it. Zhou Rong, a literary young woman, obviously has not had enough of the beatings of life and still has a leisurely heart for literature and art.
It was such a worthless letter that Zhou Zhigang couldn't even receive it, and he couldn't make his father proud, so he took the initiative to contact Zhou Rong first. He could only get some information about Zhou Rong indirectly from Li Suhua and Zhou Bingkun. Zhou Zhigang, a member of the Zhou family,
Father Yan, what you are doing now is just like a joke.
Zhou Zhigang's life is quite simple, just working on various infrastructure projects deep in the mountains.
Because of the confidentiality policy, I can't say much, but as a bricklayer, my job is to keep doing projects and building walls. There won't be any changes or anything new.
Zhou Bingyi is very lucky. Of course, it has something to do with Zhou Bingyi's good academic performance and education.
With ability and luck, he was transferred to the Corps Division Headquarters to do education work without having to endure much hardship or open up many wastelands.
And he was not far from the countryside where his partner, Hao Dongmei, jumped in the queue. Career and love were both harvested, and life in the Corps could be said to be a happy one.
