Chapter 187 Watermelon and Sesame

Kushiro Public University was just established in 1988, and it has only been a year old. Wang Weidong had heard of it when he was working at the Kushiro Fisheries Factory, because for a small Kushiro city, it is

My son has a university, which is a big deal.

At that time, people in Kushiro City were very proud of this incident.

"Mr. Yoneda, I still have a few months to study here. After graduation, I plan to continue working in a fishery factory until my visa expires, and then I plan to go back." Wang Weidong declined.

Principal Yoneda did not expect Wang Weidong to reject this suggestion, because entering Kushiro Public University meant that Wang Weidong would get another visa opportunity. He could work part-time while studying, and he would be able to earn a lot of money when he got his university diploma.

Moreover, with a university diploma, Wang Weidong will have a better chance of finding a good job here, obtaining a visa, and even a chance to stay permanently.

In fact, when he was working in the fishery factory, President Sato also asked to help him solve the visa issue, and then left this young man from China to work in the factory.

Although this is the dream of many Chinese people who come here to make money, Wang Weidong refused.

It is not his wish to work here for a long time and make money. Perhaps one day in the future, selling cod from Larimov's fishing company here is what he wants to do.

Ou Xiaoyang wrote to him in March urging him to return to China, and Wang Weidong replied saying that he would go back when his study visa expired. However, since then Ou Xiaoyang has never written to him to urge him.

The winter vacation lasted from December 28th to January 8th, 1990, which was less than half a month, so Wang Weidong did not go to work in the fishery company, but stayed in school.

In March 1990, Asuka School in Akan Town held a grand graduation ceremony for seven people, including Wang Weidong.

The mayor of Akan Town and the chief of education came to participate because this was the first batch of international students to graduate in Akan Town.

After one and a half years of study, coupled with daily interactions with villagers and workers in aquatic products factories, Wang Weidong can speak very good daily Japanese.

After finishing his studies at Asuka School in Akan Town, Wang Weidong came to the fishery factory in Kushiro to continue working. He asked President Yoshinori Sato for a business card to keep, maybe he would use it in the future.

In half a year, he earned more than 800,000 yen. Calculated on a one-to-seventeen basis, the money amounted to 50,000 yuan. Including what he had sent home before and what he had brought with him, excluding all kinds of things used for study.

In terms of expenses, this time Wang Weidong made tens of thousands of yuan.

Wang Weidong sent 800,000 yen home and then bought a plane ticket to return to China.

After the plane landed at Beijing Airport, Wang Weidong found a hotel to stay in and made a call to Ou Xiaoyang.

Ou Xiaoyang was very happy when he heard that Wang Weidong was finally back. He drove a Santana to pick up Wang Weidong, and then took Wang Weidong to Donglaishun to eat hotpot mutton.

Listening to Wang Weidong talk about his experience in Xiaobenzi in the past two years, Ou Xiaoyang said with emotion: "You did the right thing. Not only did you learn Japanese in the past two years, but you also made money. It's not like me who just sat there and had nothing in the past two years."

"Why buy Santana if you don't make money?" Wang Weidong said.

"I can't help it. It's really shameful for friends to be together without a good car." Ou Xiaoyang replied helplessly.

However, although he lamented that everything was in vain, Ou Xiaoyang did not mention Wang Weidong going to the northern country to do business.

Wang Weidong also tacitly agreed not to ask the reason.

"What are your plans for coming back this time?" Ou Xiaoyang asked.

"Not yet, there is no chance now. If I can sell the sea fish from Vladivostok to Hokkaido, I will definitely make a lot of money!" Wang Weidong sighed.

It was still unrealistic to do this kind of trade in the 1990s.

It wasn't until Ou Xiaoyang drove Wang Weidong back to the hotel and Wang Weidong got off the car that Ou Xiaoyang said, "Weidong, we won't talk about doing business in the big northern country for a year and a half."

Three days later, Wang Weidong returned home to Xiangyang Chemical Plant.

The four old men returned to the chemical factory from Harbin a year ago, and now it is not easy for foreign trade and economic people to find him.

There were only mother Li Yufeng and grandmother Huang Guiying at home. The house was too crowded, so Chen Jihong lived with her children at her parents' house.

"Stop running around and just stay calm. It's been so hard for Ji Hong to be alone at home these past two years," Huang Guiying said.

"I will stay at home for a while when I come back this time and won't go anywhere." Wang Weidong replied.

"In the past two years, you have sent tens of thousands of yuan to your family. That's about enough. How much is more!" Li Yufeng also advised her son.

The three people chatted about the current situation of the chemical factory. The cost of float glass was too high and the sales situation was very poor. The radio factory had a large backlog of radios that could not be sold at all.

"Thanks to your eldest brother and Xiaomei, both of whom are involved in military product production, their wages are guaranteed, otherwise it would be difficult to pay them," Li Yufeng said.

Five years ago, in order to be transferred to the radio factory, Wang Xianxian and Qu Xiaomei went to Deputy Factory Director Fang's house at night with gifts to smoothen the relationship. As a result, Deputy Factory Director Fang remembered Wang Weidong's incident, and the next day they were transferred to the position responsible for the shipment of military products.

Moving team, a small canteen that works the night shift to cook for military workers.

At that time, working as a porter and working in a canteen on the night shift were very hard, and no one wanted to go there. Unexpectedly, a few years later, these hard jobs have become popular. There is only one reason. Although it is hard, the salary is high and guaranteed.

.

The float glass and radio factories that were converted from chemical plants to civilian products are actually losing money, and now they can only barely maintain low wages.

"At that time, who would have thought that it would be difficult to raise capital for such a big factory! There is really no way. Now the factory raises funds to pay workers, and the factory promises to give 10% interest! Many old workers have spent decades just to get high interest rates.

The thousands of dollars saved were handed over to the factory, waiting to earn interest," Li Yufeng said with a sigh.

"Weidong, Deputy Director Fang is done." Grandma Huang Guiying suddenly said.

Huang Guiying made a pistol gesture with her dry palm and then said: "I heard he is probably going to eat this!"

Wang Weidong was shocked when he saw his grandma's action.

"Deputy Factory Director Fang has been arrested for two or three months, and he even has a brother-in-law who drives for him! I heard that Deputy Factory Director Fang has embezzled tens of thousands of dollars in the past few years, and his brother-in-law has reimbursed the money for gas for the car in the past few years.

The repair cost is more than 100,000 yuan, and it’s full of tricks!” Li Yufeng explained.

Upon hearing the news, Wang Weidong was speechless for a moment.

After chatting at home for more than an hour, Wang Weidong got up and planned to go to his father-in-law's house, but at this time his father Wang Haifu suddenly opened the door and walked in.

Wang Haifu usually goes out in the morning to play all day and doesn't come back until dark. Today he went out for two or three hours and came back, which is very unusual.

Seeing Wang Weidong, Wang Haifu asked sternly without saying any more nonsense: "Where are you going?"

"I want to see Ji Hong." Wang Weidong replied.

Seeing his father's appearance, he was very confused.

"Don't go! You're not allowed to go anywhere!" Wang Haifu said.
