After finishing the meal, Liu Xiaojing and her mother went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, while the children lay on the sofa watching cartoons. The father-in-law, brother-in-law and Zhou Wen continued to sit at the dining table and continued the topic just now...
com..
"Brother-in-law, why don't you get me a police uniform to wear? I heard that your county's traffic police brigade is quite fat." Liu Xiaozheng picked his teeth and spoke carelessly, as if his brother-in-law was the local emperor of Nantai County.
.
"It's not easy to get into the public security system. You have to take the civil service examination, can you do it?" Zhou Wen teased unceremoniously.
"Tch, okay, brother-in-law, it's not up to you to say anything." Liu Xiaozheng said nonchalantly, flicking the vegetable leaves off the toothpick.
The old father-in-law spoke: "Xiao Zheng, don't think about those unrealistic things. Your brother-in-law has just been promoted to county magistrate. How many pairs of eyes are staring at him. It's not easy to open this mouth. Otherwise, first try to get a career establishment below.
If we continue to develop slowly, Nantai will soon build an industrial park. I think this project is quite promising."
Zhou Wen accepted every offer, feeling very upset. It wasn't that he didn't want to help, it was just that this brother-in-law was too trouble-making. If he was really given a job, he would have a lot more to do in the future.
With a "ding dong" sound, the doorbell rang, and Liu Xiaojing rushed out of the kitchen. While taking off her apron, she said, "Sister Wang must be here at this time."
The door opened, and there was a man and a woman standing outside, with smiles on their faces and gifts in their hands. Liu Xiaojing shouted loudly: "Oh, Sister Wang, come as soon as you come, you even brought something, come in and sit down."
Sister Wang is a woman in her thirties, with a smile that turns into a chrysanthemum. She dare not come in at the door: "Xiaojing, the floor in your house is really clean. You need to change into slippers."
Liu Xiaojing took out two pairs of slippers from the shoe cabinet. Sister Wang and his wife put them on before they came in. She put the gift in the corner and stood at the door to say hello politely: "Hello, County Magistrate Zhou. Hello, uncle."
Sister Wang's husband looks honest and honest, wearing a brand new suit and leather shoes, with a very reserved expression, far less free and easy than his wife.
"Xiaojing, this is your brother, what a spirited young man." Sister Wang smiled heartily. Liu Xiaozheng stood up, said hello to the guest, and walked to the study room to play on his brother-in-law's computer.
"Zhou Wen, this is Sister Wang from our unit. She usually takes good care of me. This is their name, Hong Hui, who works as the deputy section chief in your county's Construction Bureau." Liu Xiaojing enthusiastically introduced to her husband. It seems that this visit is
It has already been arranged.
"Sit down." Zhou Wen said calmly. Since he has to face such things as a leader, he has already been mentally prepared for this. Regardless of whether he is happy or not, he must always do his best to save face.
"County Magistrate Zhou, smoke a cigarette." Hong Hui handed over a cigarette. It was a 45-yuan box of Zhonghua. It had just been opened.
"Thank you, no." Zhou Wen pushed back the cigarette and looked down at his phone.
"You guys chat, I'll help your mother wash the dishes." The old father-in-law got up and went into the kitchen. The atmosphere in the living room was a bit awkward.
"Xiaojing and I are good sisters. We have always wanted to come over for a visit. Today we both have a break, so we came over to have a look, haha." Sister Wang said with a smile, while quietly touching her husband with her elbow.
, motioning for him to say a few words, but this dull man was so nervous that he could not speak.
Zhou Wen was also thoughtful and silent. Liu Xiaojing was a little unhappy. Just when she wanted to remind her husband, Zhou Wen suddenly laughed and said: "You are Lao Hong from the Planning and Finance Section of the Construction Bureau."
Sister Wang and his wife's eyes immediately flashed with excitement, and Hong Hui said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, yes, I work in the Planning and Finance Department, and County Magistrate Zhou has a really good memory."
Little did he know that Zhou Wen was thinking about another person at this moment, that is Deputy County Magistrate Zhu who is in charge of the county's infrastructure work.
"Haha, I have the impression that you are responsible for the budget and final accounts audit, right?"
"It's not about being responsible, just running errands..." Hong Hui spoke with a pure Jiangbei urban accent, and he seemed to be a low-ranking cadre.
"Our Lao Hong joined the Nantai County Construction Bureau after taking the Provincial Civil Service Examination the year before last. He was originally offered deputy section treatment, but he hasn't been offered it yet." Sister Wang complained.
The purpose of this couple's visit was very clear. They just wanted to use Zhou Wen's relationship to move up the rankings. Zhou Wen knew it well and did not criticize it. He said in an official tone: "The organization department must have their own considerations. This
If you're not in a hurry, what's the matter? Since Sister Wang and Xiaojing are good sisters, our two families will have to move around frequently in the future. I have something to do in the evening, so I won't chat with you. Xiaojing, take good care of the guests.
"
After saying that, they got up and put on their clothes to go out. Seeing this, Sister Wang and his wife quickly got up to leave, but were held down by Zhou Wen: "You have come all the way, please stay a little longer and chat with Xiaojing. Mayor Hu's secretary just
Send a message to let me go, otherwise I will sit with you for a while."
Seeing that County Magistrate Zhou spoke so sincerely, Sister Wang and his wife had no choice but to sit down. Zhou Wenchong greeted his father-in-law and mother-in-law in the kitchen and pushed the door open.
…
No one sent any messages at all. Zhou Wen couldn't stand the atmosphere at home and came out to relax. He walked along the road for a while, saw the brightly lit Chenguang Machinery Factory, and couldn't help but walk in.
"Who are you looking for?" The guard stopped Zhou Wen.
"Oh, I'm looking for Factory Director Lu." Zhou Wen replied subconsciously.
"Which unit do you belong to?" The guard looked at Zhou Wen suspiciously, feeling that he was very dignified and looked like a leader, but how could a leader come to inspect without taking a car or an entourage?
"My name is Zhou Wen, and I work for the Nantai County Government." Zhou Wen introduced himself.
The guard took out the registration book and asked Zhou Wen to fill in his name and then let him in. The Chenguang Machinery Factory was very busy tonight, the machines were roaring, and the downstairs of the factory was full of cars. Zhou Wen noticed that one of the off-road vehicles was Liu Ziguang.
's car.
He immediately dialed Liu Ziguang's mobile phone. After a while, Liu Ziguang came down from upstairs, shook hands with Zhou Wen and said, "What brings you here? Mr. County Magistrate."
Zhou Wen chuckled and said, "Come in and see the excitement. By the way, is Director Lu here?"
"Here, I'll take you up." Liu Ziguang took Zhou Wen to the reception room upstairs, where Lu Tianming was chatting with a guest in a suit.
"Director Lu, Mr. Zheng, this is County Magistrate Zhou of Nantai County." Liu Ziguang introduced to everyone.
"Zhou Wen, Secretary Liu's son-in-law, right? Hello, hello." Lu Tianming shook hands with Zhou Wen warmly, and the man known as Mr. Zheng also extended his hand to Zhou Wen: "Hello, County Magistrate Zhou, this is me.
Please take care of your business card."
This man's accent had a strong Cantonese flavor. Zhou Wen took the business card and looked at it. Sure enough, it was printed with the words Zheng Qiang, senior assistant manager of Hong Kong Ruifeng Matheson Company.
The intercom on the coffee table made a burst of electric noise, and Deng Yunfeng's voice came: "Director, can the merchants come down and take a look."
"Let's take a look at our new products."
Everyone came to the assembly workshop together. The iodine tungsten lamps emitted bright light. There were three vehicles of different shapes parked in the workshop. The four-color jungle camouflage was sprayed on the bodies. The smell of paint filled the air. Several painters were cleaning up nearby.
Holding the spray gun, it seems that it has just been completed.
Chief engineer Deng Yunfeng, wearing a safety helmet and work clothes, explained to customers: "Our Chenguang factory has designed three models for selection. The first one, design code-named CG A type, is an imitation of the Soviet-style BTR40 armored vehicle and has eight millimeter armor steel plates.
, can withstand direct fire from small arms, and can also be equipped with medium-sized support weapons including large-caliber machine guns or 80mm mortars. It has a crew of two and can carry six to eight people. It has four-wheel drive, strong off-road performance, and a lot of room for modification.
big."
Everyone gathered around the first armored vehicle to comment. Zheng Qiang, the buyer's representative, seemed unfamiliar with the business. He just patted the steel plate and fiddled with the steering wheel without asking any questions.
"The second type is designed with the design code CG Type B. You may have noticed that this model is very similar to a Hummer, but in fact it is not. The Hummer is just a light multi-purpose military vehicle, while our product is a four-wheel drive
A wheeled armored vehicle, it uses a truck chassis, a non-load-bearing body, and the armor thickness of key parts is eight millimeters. The characteristic of this vehicle is that it has good camouflage and is not as sensitive as a military vehicle."
"This is good, stylish!" Mr. Zheng's eyes lit up and he was full of praise for this fake Hummer. However, the engineers and technicians at Chenguang Factory all looked at each other. The buyer asked for three options. In fact, this one is pure
It was just improvised to make up the numbers, but unexpectedly it turned out to be the most popular.
Deng Yunfeng walked to the last car and proudly introduced: "This is a mine-protected vehicle designed by three generations of the design department of our Chenguang Factory after more than ten years of hard work. Part of it is based on the Caspi mkiii type mine-protected vehicle in South Africa.
The mine armored transport vehicle has a high chassis, V-shaped bottom, and explosion-proof tires, which can effectively prevent the damage caused by mine fragments to the crew. The body armor can withstand the fire of small arms and can also serve as a weapons platform. However, the cost of this one is probably higher.
Some."
"Well, not bad." Zheng Qiang walked around the mine-protected vehicle twice in a serious manner, kicked the tires, looked at the chassis, nodded and praised: "Not bad."
"Whether it is a mule or a horse, you have to take it out for a walk to find out. Mr. Zheng, please." Deng Yunfeng opened the car door and invited Zheng Qiang to get in. The bright car lights pierced the darkness outside the workshop, and the armored vehicle made a low roar.
, ran out like a wild horse.
The Chenguang Machinery Factory has a large factory area and even has its own test site. The site contains different terrains such as steep slopes, sandy areas, ponds, roads, etc. Deng Yunfeng drove the armored vehicle around the site at lightning speed. When he returned to the workshop
At the door, Zheng Qiang got out of the car and vomited all over.
"It's really bumpy. The shock absorption needs to be improved." Zheng Qiang said with a pale face.
"Okay, we'll stop here tonight and send Mr. Zheng back to rest and continue the test drive tomorrow." Seeing that Zheng Qiang could no longer hold on, Lu Tianming announced that the test drive was temporarily suspended and sent someone to take the customer back to the hotel.
After Zheng Qiang left, Lu Tianming said with some worry: "This customer representative obviously doesn't know his stuff."
Liu Ziguang said: "It's better if you don't know how to do it. Our products are all improvised knock-offs. If you really meet someone who knows how to do it, it will be troublesome."
"You can't say that. What we do is not a one-time deal. We have to make customers satisfied. Later, Xiao Deng, please send the specifications of these three prototype cars to Mr. Zheng. He doesn't know the business, but there are always people who know the business.
Bar."
Zhou Wen interjected: "I didn't expect that the technical level of our factory is so high. These cars are quite powerful in appearance. If they are sold as SUVs on the market, they will definitely sell well."
Everyone laughed loudly. As the saying goes, laymen only see the excitement, and insiders know the truth. Except for the mine-protected vehicle, these vehicles produced by Chenguang Factory are all made of commercially available truck chassis, civilian engines, and tires.
The body is purely made, and because foreign prices are kept very low, basic military vehicle configurations such as central tire inflation systems, automatic power steering, and independent suspension are not included in the design. In order to reduce costs, electronic equipment is reduced to a minimum.
Apart from the lights, there are no electrical devices inside or outside the car.
Zhou Wenduo, a smart person, immediately understood what everyone meant. He smiled and said: "As a layman, I think it looks good, and foreign businessmen will definitely be satisfied. After all, the foundation of our Chenguang Factory for decades is here."
Lu Tianming also laughed: "County Chief Zhou, we have no choice but to survive in the cracks. Let alone armored vehicles. For the future of the factory, even if foreign businessmen want to buy aircraft and missiles, we can still save up."
Everyone burst out laughing again, and the iron door of the workshop slowly closed. Everyone walked side by side on the road to the factory area, and the street lights made the figures of this group of entrepreneurs look tall and tall.
