Chapter 533 Souvenirs
"Uncle Zhang, when did you come to the capital? Why didn't you call and let me know so I could arrange for someone to pick you up?"
Jiang Xiaobai said.
"I arrived this morning, and then I went to the school after asking around and looked for Lanfang. This capital is really big. I got lost several times. I didn't find the school until noon..."
Zhang Baofeng said with a smile, his eyes full of shock towards the capital.
Since he was a child, the farthest place he has been to is Zhangxuan County.
It's strange to be able to find your way around the capital all of a sudden and get used to this kind of city.
Jiang Xiaobai could imagine Zhang Baofeng coming to the capital alone carrying large and small bags, and after getting off the train station, he was looking for people to ask for directions.
This kind of scene that seems extremely sad to people in later generations is a normal scene for people in this era.
There's nothing sad about it, because they don't have time to be pretentious, and they've already lived through tougher days than this.
"Why did you come to the capital suddenly? What's the matter?" Jiang Xiaobai asked. The ticket from Zhangxuan County to the capital is not cheap, so why did Zhang Baofeng come to the capital suddenly?
"I just came to the capital for a trip. I haven't been out in my whole life. It's just the right time for Nizi to go to school in the capital, so I just came to the capital for a walk. I'm afraid I won't be able to walk around when I get older."
Zhang Baofeng coughed twice more as he spoke.
"I have a cold, please take care of yourself." Jiang Xiaobai noticed Zhang Baofeng coughing and said with a smile.
"It's time to go out and enjoy the happiness. It's not easy for you in this life, or it's not easy for all of you in this life."
Jiang Xiaobai still has a good impression of Zhang Baofeng, although this villager is called Iron Rooster.
But all the money he saved from his teeth was used to send his children to school.
I haven't spent a penny on myself. Nowadays, many rural girls don't let their daughters go to school.
Before Jiang Xiaobai implemented twelve years of compulsory education in Jianhua Village.
Most girls go to elementary school and that's it.
He started to help with the work at home, and when he was fourteen, fifteen, sixteen or seventeen, he got married.
If Zhang Lanfang hadn't been born into a family like Zhang Baofeng's, her child might be two or three years old now.
How can I still go to college? Those are two completely different destinies.
"This is all thanks to you, Director Xiaobai. Now the village is rich. Not only is the harvest from the fields large, but also the dividends from the pig farm. I will work in the Educated Youth Cannery Factory again, which will make a lot of money a year."
Only then can I be willing to go around."
Zhang Baofeng said cheerfully.
"Okay, Xiaoliu and I will treat you to a nice dinner tonight, and then tomorrow I'll ask Xiaoliu to take you around the capital. Don't worry about money, I'll take care of it all."
Jiang Xiaobai made arrangements, looked back at Zhang Lanfang and said: "Lanfang, it's okay to ask for leave from the school. Do you need me to say hello to you?"
"It's okay, Brother Bai. I asked the teacher for leave before I came out."
Zhang Lanfang shook her head and said, her eyes full of happiness and excitement. Obviously, she was also very happy when her father Zhang Baofeng came to Beijing.
"No, Director Xiaobai, I have money in my pocket, I don't need yours." Zhang Baofeng shook his head and said.
"You don't need to accompany me, Nizi. It will delay your studies. I can just go around by myself."
"It's okay. You listen to me. I'm the director of the factory. I have the final say. It's hard to come to the capital once. How can I do it if I don't have a good time? Let Xiaoliu accompany me."
Jiang Xiaobai insisted, and Zhang Baofeng thanked him and did not refuse.
Jiang Xiaobai looked at the free-range eggs that Zhang Baofeng carefully took out of his bag, and at the bottles of chili sauce and pickles.
I was speechless for a moment.
"This can was probably brought to you by Aunt Wang from the east end of the village, and the eggs are from her family. She said that if it weren't for you, her family would still be living in a house that leaks rain in the summer and air leaks in the winter."
"This pickle was brought to me by my aunt Liu's family. Her family is very good at making this. Many people ask her to help pickle the pickle."
"Not to mention this chili sauce, the smell of it makes people salivate..."
As Zhang Baofeng said, Jiang Xiaobai held these things and suddenly felt they weighed a thousand pounds. He did not expect that these villagers were still thinking about him.
Jiang Xiaobai, who was originally inclined to go abroad, suddenly became wavered.
How could I just leave such a mess and go abroad?
Yes, you can make money by going abroad, but is it really just for money after you are reborn?
Jiang Xiaobai's thoughts were numb, and it took him a long time to calm down his thoughts.
When Li Xiaoliu came back that night, he was extremely friendly when he saw Zhang Baofeng. They were all from the same village.
When he was a child, Li Xiaoliu often played behind Zhang Baofeng, and of course he called Zhang Baofeng "Iron Rooster" behind his back.
That night, several people drank a lot. The next day, Jiang Xiaobai didn't stay with them much and drove to Daxing Glass Factory first.
The tempered glass production line is now in the final finishing stage.
The training of workers has begun, and now there is no idle person in Daxing Glass Factory.
Those who are busy producing are busy producing, and those who are busy selling are busy selling.
Jiang Xiaobai is already planning to recruit workers again and expand production.
As the sales volume increases, of course sales must keep up. You can’t run out of goods.
However, when it comes to worker establishment, you still need to file a report and wait for approval.
But for the recruitment of temporary workers, Jiang Xiaobai has already asked Chen Shaodong to start preparations. When recruiting temporary workers, there is no need to ask the superiors for establishment.
You can make the decision in your own factory and just need to report it.
Zhang Baofeng stayed in the capital for three days. On the morning of the fourth day, Li Xiaoliu and Zhang Lanfang took Zhang Baofeng to the station to go home.
Jiang Xiaobai had something happen to Daxing Glass Factory early in the morning. He just finished solving the problem and returned to the flagship store, only to find that Zhang Baofeng had left.
I originally planned to take Zhang Baofeng to the supply and marketing cooperative before Zhang Baofeng left to buy some things for the villagers to take back.
Now it seems I can only wait until I can go back during the Chinese New Year.
Just then, a call came in.
Jiang Xiaobai picked up the phone and found it was Liu Qian calling.
"Xiao Bai, the school wants you to come over in the afternoon and there will be a meeting at 3 o'clock," Liu Qian said.
"What's going on? Do you have to go back?" Jiang Xiaobai asked.
"It seems that the quota for studying abroad has almost been decided. When you come back, you will have a meeting to finalize the decision, and then fill out the form and so on."
Liu Qian said.
"The names of people going abroad have been decided, who are there?" Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously.
"I don't know very well, but it must be you. I'll find out when you come in the afternoon." Liu Qian said.
"Are you there?" Jiang Xiaobai asked, but he knew that this girl also wanted to go abroad.
