Chapter 28 Comrade Xiao Du goes to work

Chapter 28 Comrade Xiao Du goes to work

July 26, 1963, Monday, sunny day.

At 7:40 in the morning, Du Weiguo had already eaten breakfast, tidied up, and was full of energy and ready.

Take off the military cap with the cap badge, take off the military uniform with the collar badge, military trousers, white shirt, leather shoes, watch, military satchel and water bottle, and wear an armed belt.

The standard image of a retired cadre who has been transferred to another job.

Today is Du Weiguo's official shift report. Although he is already familiar with his colleagues in the security department, a basic sense of ritual is still required.

Most of Corey's colleagues are former military personnel, and the remaining few are successors. Most of the elders in the family are also military personnel.

Everyone has a natural affinity for soldiers.

At 7:50, Comrade Xiao Du rode to the south gate of the rolling mill. He first presented a letter of introduction very formally to Wang Xiao, the security officer on duty. Then he rode to the security office, parked the car, and went to Security Section 3 to find Chief Hao.

check in.

The Security Department of the Steel Rolling Mill and the Armed Forces Department work together in an independent office building with three floors.

At 7:55, Xiao Du arrived at Section Chief Hao's door and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Probably because of Jiang Dongfang's habit, Shengsheng changed the working hours of the security office to 7:50.

Director Jiang enters the office on time at 7:55 every day, while others start work on time at 7:50.

You can't be later than the leader. This is called style. The general will lead the troops.

"Report, Du Weiguo, a veteran of a certain company of a certain division of a certain division of the Jinling Military Region, has come to report."

After Xiao Du entered the door, he stood at attention and gave a standard military salute.

"Xiao Du, give me the letter of introduction."

The boss of Section 3, Section Chief Hao, is called He Shanhe. He is 52 years old, much older than Jiang Dongfang. He is basically at the peak of his career as a full-time cadre.

If nothing happens to Comrade Lao Du, he will have to stay at home for two years. There is no other way! Every carrot is a pit, and if the deputy director does not retire or be transferred, Lao Du will not be able to move up, and he will have to stay where he is.

Hao Shanhe is not tall, only 170 by visual inspection, neither fat nor thin, has an ordinary face, wears ordinary clothes, has no imposing manner, speaks kindly, and looks more like an ordinary workshop worker.

But Du Weiguo would definitely not dare to underestimate him. Before he changed his career to the steel rolling mill, Hao Shanhe was in the (political) engineering system and had a background in interrogation. You can make up your own mind about the interrogation during the war years.

In Du Weiguo's memory, before leaving, Comrade Du specifically told Hao Shanhe to be trustworthy, but not to have a close friendship.

Comrade Xiao Du deeply believed that such people's eyes seemed to be able to see through, and they were indeed a little afraid to have deep friendships.

Chief Hao took Xiao Du to the factory's personnel department and archives department to apply for a work permit.

Then I went to the factory logistics department and received a security uniform, a lunch box, a laptop, a thermos bottle and so on.

Then came the Finance Department, where I registered and bought a 10-yuan meal ticket.

Finally, I took Xiao Du back to the Equipment Section of the Security Department to register and receive the gun.

Yes, you need to get a gun. In this era, all security department cadres are equipped with guns. They get their guns when they go to work during the day and hand them in after work at night. They don’t need to hand them in after passing the application during the execution of the mission.

A brand new Type 54 pistol, shiny black and glowing with cold light, with 7 rounds in the magazine and 5 rounds in the holster.

After Comrade Xiao Du took the pistol, his body's instincts seemed to be activated. He was instantly excited and no longer calm and calm.

My hands were like piercing flowers, and I was dazzled. I quickly disassembled the gun into parts, inspected them carefully, and even touched every bullet to make sure they were all good bullets. Then I quickly assembled the gun and fired it with a dry gun.

The sound was crisp and clear, and Xiao Du was very satisfied at this moment.

The on-duty officer and section chief of the equipment department nodded their heads as they looked at it, they are experts.

Although there are two flower-mouthed pokers in the space, you can't take them out casually. After you found them, they checked and loaded them, and they stayed in the space.

All men like guns, not to mention that Du Weiguo remembers playing with them since he was a child. In the army, he wanted to sleep with his arms in his arms every day.

After finishing this, Section Chief Hao led Xiao Du to the duty room of Section 3. Xiao Du's desk and cabinets were already prepared.

There are only two desks in the office now. In addition to Xiao Du, the third section has one officer and no deputy section chief.

Next to the officer's duty room is the duty room and lounge of the third security department. You can change clothes and put things here during the day, and take turns to rest during the night shift.

It's almost 10 o'clock when the whole set of things in the factory is finished.

"Xiao Du, this is your office and desk. You change your work clothes. Today, you will briefly familiarize yourself with the environment, and then say hello to Director Jiang. I will take you to the cafeteria for lunch at noon, and you will familiarize yourself with Wang Xiao in the afternoon.

work process."

"Okay, thank you section chief, you are tired."

"Haha, don't be so polite."

The office is about 12 square meters, with two desks and chairs facing each other, a telephone, and two filing cabinets on one side against the wall, and a personal locker on the other side.

There are currently only two people in the office, and the whole office seems a bit empty.

Another security officer, Wang Xiao, is also familiar to Du Weiguo. After all, they see him every day.

23 years old, two years older than Xiao Du. After graduating from high school at the age of 19, he took over as a security guard. He worked for 3 years and was promoted to full-time last year. He is a 24th-level cadre.

He is a scholar-type young man, he is very bright, speaks and acts in a decent manner, and is a very nice person.

There were 6 lockers, two floors up and down, and the space was quite large. Comrade Xiao Du randomly found a locker that looked relatively clean, and then changed his clothes.

The uniform of the security department of the steel rolling mill is neither a worker's uniform nor a police uniform, but a dark blue uniform.

The style is almost the same as the military police uniform, except that the color is dark blue, and the cadre uniform also has 4 pockets. This is completely a military uniform with a changed color.

But it looks really handsome in it. You must know that Xiao Du loves beauty. This is a bad habit brought by later generations. There is no such thing as beauty in my memory.

Xiao Du brought a white hurdle vest and a cowhide belt in his military bag today. He took off his military shirts and folded them up to put them in his bag.

Putting on the security uniform, with a pistol on his belt, and the dark blue military police uniform with four pockets, Xiao Du felt more calm and energetic.

Xiao Du did not expose the pistol. He pinned it on the right side of his waist and covered it with his clothes to suppress his anger and sharpness.

Wearing this dark-colored long-sleeved uniform in summer is definitely a bit hot, but that's the way it is in this era, and don't you think the army is like this too?

Fortunately, Xiao Du's physique is much better than that of ordinary people, so there is basically no problem.

After changing clothes, I packed my work ID, money, and invoices. I received the water bottle I brought along with my newly issued lunch box, notebook, and other items at my desk.

With two boxes of Dazhuo and two boxes of Zhonghua in his pocket, Comrade Xiao Du walked out of the office and went up to the third floor.

The section chiefs and the equipment section are all on the second floor. Jiang Dongfang's office is on the third floor, and the office of the Armed Forces Department is also on the third floor.

After knocking on the door and entering, Jiang Dongfang was very satisfied when he saw Du Weiguo wearing a brand new uniform and looking heroic.

"Uncle Jiang, I forgot to bring my chopsticks today. Do you have any extra ones?"

Seeing Jiang Dongfang fanning himself with Xiao Du's sandalwood fan, Xiao Du asked, licking his face.

"You have nothing to talk about, right?"

Xiao Du sat across from Jiang Dongfang and saw half a pack of peonies on the table. He took out one and lit it for Jiang Dongfang first, and then took one himself.

"Uncle Jiang, I really forgot to bring my chopsticks. I won't be able to grab them for a while. If you ask Chief Hao about this, I can't open my mouth."

"Can you open your mouth if I follow you?"

"You are my biological uncle, what should I be embarrassed about?"

"What else?"

"Uncle Jiang, my house is being renovated. It's not bad, but can you help me organize the green army cloth for our army? Curtains, sheets, quilts, pillows, I want to use army green cloth. I'm used to it.

Already."

"Okay, I'll touch you around."

As Jiang Dongfang said this, he took out a lunch box from his desk. There was an aluminum spoon in it and threw it to Xiao Du. You can eat with the spoon.

"Okay! Then I'll go down and go to the south gate to make smoke for the brothers."

"get out!"

Xiao Du stood up and pocketed most of the box of peonies. Jiang Dongfang stood up and roared: "Leave the cigarettes for me, only half of the box is left."

Xiao Du handed two boxes of Zhonghua to Jiang Dongfang, "Uncle, you are such a big leader, is half a box of cigarettes worth your shouting?"

After looking at the Zhonghua in his hand, Jiang Dongfang gave the order to expel the guest with satisfaction:

"Get out of here! Leave me alone."

After Xiao Du left, Jiang Dongfang beautifully lit a Chinese stick and said to himself: "Well, it has to be a Chinese one, so it doesn't burn my throat."
