But after running a toy factory, he suddenly understood.

Without skills, it is difficult for you to survive.

Without capital and connections, it will be difficult for you to rise.

Without culture, you will suffer losses in everything you do.

The battalion commander was invincible on the battlefield and returned to society...

The reason why Lao Xu stayed at the agricultural machinery station and refused to resign was probably just for the monthly salary of three to four hundred yuan so that he could support his father and his wife.

Xu Fei stood on the side of the road, looking at the figure squatting on the ground observing the diesel engine in the distance, as if he saw himself after dismantling the radio and unable to put it back together.

At the same time, many letters from home came to mind.

'Xiao Fei, you are already five years old and you are attending the Yuhong class. You need to learn more about Chinese characters and read more. Next time we correspond, we won't use Chinese Pinyin.'

"Xiao Fei, you are in the first grade and you want to be a Young Pioneer..."

"The south is not stable recently. I may not be able to reply for a long time. I asked the leaders of the County Armed Forces Department to buy you a backpack and pencil case..."

"Xiao Fei, have you ever seen an artillery array? The kind where hundreds of guns were fired at random. Your father and I survived it!"

"Xiao Fei, I heard from your grandpa that you study until late at night every day. We have to pay attention to your health. I asked the leader of the Armed Forces to buy you a football. You should exercise more."

"I heard from my comrades that the Little Overlord learning machine is popular in the city. I haven't been back in the past three years and I don't know what it is like. I asked the leader of the Armed Forces to buy you one..."

"Xiao Fei, I don't know if you can receive this letter..."

"Xiao Fei, I just came back from South Vietnam. I just learned about the old man's matter, but I need to review it now..."

"Xiao Fei, I have decided to change my career and have already applied..."

This is a dad who lives in letters.

It seemed that apart from writing letters, the father and son had not spoken a few words.

Even if I change my career and come back, I have thousands of words to say and want to speak, but I can't.

In other words, both of us are poor expressive people.

Xu Fei looked at the figure squatting next to the diesel engine, wiped the corners of his eyes, turned and walked into the nearby dark alley.

Organize an engineer and whisper the recruitment code.

Not long after, a strong man appeared in front of him and said, "Commander, Lao Hu is here to report."

"You do this, do this, do this again, remember?"

"know!"

Lao Hu looked around the agricultural machinery station and threw all his clothes to Xu Fei, "Then I'll go over?"

"Well, don't worry about being exposed."

Agricultural machinery station.

Lao Xu squatted next to the diesel engine, trying to recall the assembly steps given by the old stationmaster.

Suddenly, a loud voice came into the big tile-roofed room, "Comrade, do you have hot water to drink?"

"Yes!" Lao Xu glanced back and secretly marveled at how strong the visitor was. At the same time, he walked to the parts cabinet, picked up the thermos and poured half a bowl of water. After rinsing, he filled the bowl again, "There is no tea, so don't mind it."

"As long as you have something to drink." Lao Hu picked up the porcelain bowl. It seemed to be very hot and blew on it for a while. "Comrade, where are you assembling the diesel engine?"

"yes!"

"The order is wrong, the screws cannot be tightened hard." Old Hu said, put down the porcelain bowl, picked up the wrench, disassembled it in twos, and reinstalled it in twos and threes. "This thing is actually very simple. When I was in the company, I saw it.

We are about to go to the war zone, stay in Wutai Hongyan 261, and I will do it all by myself."

"War zone? Hongyan CQ261 heavy truck?"

"Yes, the one imported from Belleier, France."

"Have you been to Laoshan Battlefield?"

"how do you know?"

"Which company are you in?" Lao Xu breathed heavily.

"The 119th Artillery Regiment, mainly attacking the 142nd Highland."

"I'm right next to you in Songmaoling."

"Huh?" Lao Hu was slightly startled, "What's your name?"

"Xu Dayou!"

"So it's Battalion Commander Xu?! You brought out several soldiers in our company. I, Old Hu, Hu Zhijun!"

"Sounds familiar!"

"Do you know Zhang Daxia? Our leader."

"I must know him!" Lao Xu held Lao Hu's arm, "Brother, have you changed jobs too?"

"No, I chose to quit. My mother was sick and needed money urgently. Later, the money was spent and the person was gone."

"Oh." Lao Xu sighed deeply, "Let's go, I'm treating you, let's go have a few drinks."

"I have to go. I'll help you install the other diesel engines first."

…………

"Although this deceives you, having a comrade who understands mechanics is better than being alone."

Xu Fei hid in the dark alley and observed for a long time, leading the vicious dog, whistling, and swaggering past the roadside.

Lao Xu was busy greeting his "comrades" without even looking at them.

'Humph, this dad!'

Return to the Xu family's old house.

It was pitch black inside and out.

Turning on the light, Lao Xu bought a new stove and a matching iron cylinder.

But the two men were not at home for a day, and the briquettes had long been burned to white ash.

Xu Fei ran to the southwest corner of the yard, dug out a pile of corn cobs, carefully ignited them with leaves, threw them into the stove until they were hot, then pressed them with briquettes, and then fanned them with a book.

After a while, I moved the stove into the house.

Unexpectedly, after all the busy work, the snow melted and my shoes got wet.

Take off your shoes, call the vicious dog, put your feet under its belly to warm them, and then boil a kettle of hot water to scald them.

During this period, I gave the vicious dog a bath and dried its fur by the stove. "Go, go to bed."

The vicious dog turned his head and looked at the quilt on the bed. He seemed to understand something, but he was still hesitant.

Xu Fei explained: "It's too cold. We are as close as brothers. I will let you sleep on the bed from now on."

The vicious dog was inexplicably moved, wagging its tail, rubbing its head against his trouser leg, jumping onto the bed and getting under the covers.

Afterwards, I enjoyed twisting my neck, squinting my eyes and falling asleep.

Xu Fei still stayed by the stove, reading the Economic Law for a long time. He looked up at the old clock and saw that it was already eleven o'clock in the night.

"Old Xu will meet his 'comrades in arms', I'm afraid he won't be able to come back tomorrow morning."

"Forget it, let's go to bed on time."

With that said, he took off his clothes, dragged the vicious dog out of bed, and got into the warm bed, "Comfortable!"

The vicious dog lay on the cold ground with a confused face.

"Tonight, you sleep under the bed."

"???"
