Chapter 140 Start of Construction
The two returned home, and Wen Qing cooked dinner. She took the pork and chicken out of the jar, picked up a cabbage from the cellar, soaked some black fungus and mushrooms, and made a pot of stew.
After they finished dinner, Wen Qing sent Zhuang Xien out of the village before she relaxed and closed the gate.
She went to inspect the winery again. During the Spring Festival, Liu Quan and Wang Jianguo came every day to check on the fermentation situation in the wine cellar, and sure enough, everything was fine.
After returning to the room, I entered the space. The crops in the space were ripe and could be harvested.
Drive the harvester to harvest the wheat first, dry it on the drying dam, then change to a tiller to plow the wheat field.
Wen Qing took a spring bath in the small bamboo building and started practicing. Normally she would practice for an hour every day, but this time she didn't have time to practice when she went to Zhuang Xien's house.
After coming out of meditation, Wen Qing left the space and went back to the bedroom to sleep.
There was nothing to do during the day and no one to disturb her, so Zhuang Xien told her that he needed to visit some friends.
Wen Qing did not go out and continued to harvest crops in the space.
In the evening, Wen Qing cooked spicy fish, stir-fried chicken offal, and boiled a vegetable soup. She took out the hawthorn wine she brewed last year, poured herself a drink, and slowly ate her dinner.
Hawthorn wine is brewed in the winery and stored in the space for a year. It is red with a hint of brown, sweet and sour, and tastes very smooth.
She always felt a little uncomfortable at Zhuang Xien's house, and only when she was alone at home did she completely relax. Wen Qing felt that she had some social anxiety.
After dinner, Wen Qing did not enter the space, but practiced in the courtyard.
When Wen Qing went to work on the fifth day of the New Year, he not only harvested the crops, but also plowed all the land and started planting a new season of crops.
State agencies started working on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. The Sifeng District Industrial Bureau even hung a banner that read "Happy New Year". Everyone was in high spirits and the first words they said when they met were "Happy New Year!".
Wen Qing brought the hot sauce she bought in Xijiang to two colleagues from the Heavy Industry Department and said, "Chief Tong, Angkor, I went to Xijiang during the Spring Festival and brought back some hot sauce. You can try it too."
Both of them happily accepted it and took out candies for Wen Qing to eat. There were only three people in their department and they had not spent much time together, but the atmosphere was good.
Lin Qingyuan went back to his hometown during the Spring Festival. When he came back, he brought a young woman with him and said to everyone, "I'm married. This is my wife."
On the seventh day of the New Year, Zhuang Xien took Wen Qing to dinner, which was a reunion for Xunda and his friends. Wen Qing met Lin Qingyuan's wife.
Lin Qingyuan's wife's surname is Zhang, and her name is Yumei. She looks quiet and beautiful. She is not tall and has a slim figure. Her skin is a little dark, but it is much better than that of ordinary rural women.
Fang Yuan said sourly: "Brother Qingyuan, you did a great job keeping the secret.
Such a big thing was not told to us in advance, so that we could have a chance to give you a gift."
Lin Qingyuan smiled bitterly and said, "This is what my family has decided. I'm old now, and it's time for me to get married."
Zhang Yumei said a little awkwardly: "My parents were worried that Qingyuan would have no one to take care of him, so they asked me to come with him."
He glanced at Wen Qing again and said, "I don't understand a lot of things, please don't laugh at me."
Wen Qing then noticed that Zhang Yumei was wearing a red flowered cotton jacket. This red flowered cotton jacket was bought by Lin Qingyuan on his behalf. At that time, he said he bought it for his sister. The jacket was a little short for Zhang Yumei, and her pants were black, but they were also new.
The five of them sat down, and Lin Qingyuan introduced everyone to Zhang Yumei. This time they had mutton hotpot, which Zhang Yumei probably had never had before. She ate two plates of mutton at once, and finally felt a little embarrassed, so she put down her chopsticks and said, "You guys eat too."
Fang Yuan said, "Sister-in-law, eat as much as you can. If it's not enough, just order more."
Lin Qingyuan ate the food in silence. Wen Qing called the waiter over and added one portion of mutton and one of beef.
This restaurant does not require meat coupons, but the prices are a bit high. Fortunately, the four of them are not short of money now.
Wen Qing scooped a bowl of soup. Although she knew it was high in purine, it was really delicious. After drinking the soup, she ate some frozen tofu and radish, then put down her chopsticks.
Zhuang Xian and the other two were drinking and talking about business. Their Ji Zhong Bicycle Factory was already on the right track, producing 5000 bicycles per month. In the spring, Zhuang Xian planned to add a production line, which would increase the production capacity by another 2000 bicycles after it went into production.
Wen Qing said, "In order to promote mountain bikes, let's hold a bike race. What do you think?"
In developed countries, not many people use bicycles as a means of transportation. Most people regard cycling as a sport, so bicycle manufacturers will organize cycling competitions to increase brand awareness.
Nowadays, Chinese people still use bicycles as a means of transportation, and no one has noticed its role in competition.
If Schindler takes the lead in demonstrating, Schindler will be associated with bicycle racing in the future, and the competitive nature of Schindler bicycles will become one of its labels.
Fang Yuan said: "I think it's okay."
Zhuang Xien said: “I think so too.” He expressed his views on the organization of the event.
Fang Yuan asked, "Which road should we choose for the race? Should we tell the traffic police?"
The three of them nodded and decided to first find a suitable route for the competition. The competition was tentatively scheduled for September, which is the best season of the year in Pingjing.
The cycling race route should include flat ground, hillsides, mud, grass and other terrains. Fang Yuan took the initiative to take on the task of finding the race route, and Lin Qingyuan said he could also look around.
After dinner, Lin Qingyuan took Zhang Yumei back to the house he rented. It was a one-bedroom apartment with the kitchen in the corridor. There was a toilet at one end of each floor and a washroom at the other.
Lin Qingyuan tidied the room very tidy. Zhang Yumei was secretly happy. She heard that Brother Qingyuan had made a fortune in Pingjing. She had been begging her parents for a long time to marry Brother Qingyuan. After marrying into the Lin family, she also asked for the cotton-padded jacket that Lin Qingyuan bought for her sister.
Lin Qingyuan originally wanted her to stay at home to take care of her parents, but Zhang Yumei would never give up the opportunity to come to Kyoto. She made a fuss for several days before convincing Lin Qingyuan to take her to Pingjing.
When having dinner today, I saw Wen Qing wearing a coffee-colored cotton jacket with a white sweater, which looked very fashionable. I couldn't help but want to find an opportunity to ask Lin Qingyuan for money to buy a few more clothes. When she arrived in Pingjing, she could no longer dress like she did in the village. She also wanted to become a city dweller.
It was cold at night. After parting with Zhuang Xien, Wen Qing changed to a jeep and drove back to Erxia Village.
The thin crescent moon was not bright, and it shone dimly on the road. The remaining snow and hoarfrost on the ground reflected faint spots of light.
For the last stretch of the journey, Wen Qing got off the car, put the jeep back into the space, and rode back to the courtyard by herself.
In the days that followed, Wen Qing arrived at the office early every day, cleaned the office first, and then listened to the work arrangements made by the director and section chief.
Director Ye of the Technical Department is a college graduate from the early 36s. He is now 7 or years old, tall and thin, with the temperament of an intellectual.
Section Chief Tong was a worker-peasant-soldier college student. She used to be a female worker in a textile factory. She worked hard and diligently, so she was selected as a worker-peasant-soldier college student. After graduation, she was assigned to the Industrial Bureau.
In the past decade, China has paid more attention to the development of heavy industry. They have also made a lot of imitation equipment and designed some industrial equipment. However, most of the enterprises in the jurisdiction still use old equipment, and the enterprises themselves lack the requirements for equipment upgrading.
Office work is relatively easy, and Wen Qing’s current main task is to familiarize herself with the work flow.
