Chapter 168 An Acquaintance in the Provincial City
"Okay, brother, you go ahead. I have something else to do, so I'll see you off not too far away." Li Wen smiled and shook hands with Boss Liu.
Boss Liu didn't stop for long, waved to Li Wen and got on the mule cart, and left with a group of younger brothers.
Looking at Boss Liu's retreating figure, Li Wen suddenly smiled.
Laughing at his own boldness and at the rules of this society. If he had met a group of gangsters today, the scene would definitely be different.
It wasn't until the night became quiet again that Li Wen turned around and returned to the carriage.
"Let's go!" Li Wen patted the two dogs beside him and took back the tricycle.
After walking out of Kunming Lake, Li Wen did not enter the city. He just found a corner and walked in.
The small box of gold doesn't look like it takes up much space, but it weighs nine kilograms and is difficult to hold with one hand.
"A big city is better! This time's harvest is half of what was collected in the past six months." Li Wen knocked the gold in his hand and put today's harvest code into the box.
"sleep!"
"I slept so comfortably! I slept until noon." Li Wen looked at the time and saw that it was already eleven o'clock noon.
I washed my face and didn't eat because Li Wen had to meet someone today.
In Daxia, you usually have to carry something when meeting people. Li Wen didn't carry anything valuable, he just carried five kilograms of braised pork in an unpretentious manner.
After looking outside, it was full of woods and weeds. Li Wen pushed his bicycle and walked out.
It's been four or five days since I came to the provincial capital, and I haven't settled in yet. Wandering in the wilderness all the time is not an option.
So today Li Wen is going to interview an acquaintance and solve the work problem first.
Li Wen looked up at the three-story department store, "Yes, this is it!"
"Hello, comrade, where does Sun Lianying work? I am his relative." Li Wen took out a cigarette and handed it to the doorman beside him with a smile.
"Are you talking about Section Chief Sun? He is in Office 208 on the second floor. Just go up the stairs next to it." The doorman is a man in his thirties. He is missing an eye. Judging from Li Wen's energy, he should be
Military background.
"Okay, thank you. I don't smoke, so I'll give you this pack of cigarettes." Li Wen threw the newly opened large front door on the counter and left with a smile.
"Hey! You comrade."
The doorman looked at the cigarettes on the counter, struggled with his thoughts for a while, and finally put them in his pocket.
"Clang clang clang!"
"Office 208, this is it!" Li Wen gently knocked on the office door.
"Please come in!"
A middle-aged man's hoarse voice came from the office.
Li Wen recognized that the voice was that of Sun Lianying, so he opened the door and walked in with a smile.
"Uncle Sun, long time no see!"
"Hey! It's Xiao Wen, why are you here? You're such a rare visitor. I even said I would go back to Weihe County to meet up the day after tomorrow." The middle-aged man stood up happily when he saw Li Wen.
This middle-aged man named Sun Lianying is Director Sun who purchased the Sanxing Village canned food and county food purchasing station last year.
The relationship between the two of them has become very good after several months of interaction last year. Of course, the most important thing is that the canned food in Sanxing Village allowed Sun Lianying to achieve considerable political achievements.
Sun Lianying was born in Chang'an, the provincial capital. His father was a veteran soldier. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he held a high position in the commercial system of Chang'an City.
The thinking of the older generation must be that in order to forge iron, one must be strong, so Sun Lianying was naturally sent down to the grassroots level for training.
Sun Lianying encountered several years of famine as soon as he joined the grassroots level. Not only did he fail to achieve results, but he was hindered a lot.
Seeing that he was about to return to the provincial capital in despair, he didn't expect that Li Wen gave him a big surprise last year.
This year I returned to the provincial capital with great success, and now I am the purchasing section chief of the provincial number one department store.
He was a section chief in the provincial capital in his thirties, so he was young and promising! Sun Lianying would definitely have a bright future in the future, so he was always grateful to Li Wen for helping him.
"Xiaowen, the first batch of 2,000 boxes of cans in your county has been produced, and I am preparing to go there in person the day after tomorrow to supervise the transportation."
"Are you working in a cannery now?" Sun Lianying smiled and poured a cup of tea for Li Wen.
"Hey! So fast?"
"When I came to the provincial capital, production had just started. In just four or five days, we had already produced two thousand boxes. This industrial machine is so fast!" Li Wen said in surprise.
"You have been in the provincial capital for four or five days?"
"You kid, you don't even come here to sit here when you come to the provincial capital. Who did you come with?" Sun Lianying scolded.
"I am alone."
Next, Li Wen smiled bitterly and told Sun Lianying what had happened in the past few months.
"Good boy! That "warm sun in spring" is you?"
"I knew you were writing, but I didn't expect you to be a great writer. It's amazing, you are so powerful at such a young age." Sun Lianying praised.
"Ding ding ding!"
The bell on the table rang.
"Let's go! It's time to get off work. I will take you home for dinner." Sun Lianying stood up with a smile.
"Uncle, let's just go to the restaurant to have a meal. Why bother going home?" Li Wen declined with a smile.
"Let's go! If it hadn't been for your kid's canned goods last year, I wouldn't have been transferred back to Chang'an. Your aunt has long wanted to meet you and treat you to dinner."
"And my three little guys, they all like your scientific works. Today, let them meet Comrade Nuanyang, who they have longed for." Sun Lianying patted Li Wen on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Haha! Then I won't be polite." Li Wen also laughed when he heard this.
"You've only been in the provincial capital for a few days, and you've already ridden a bicycle?" Sun Lianying asked in surprise as he watched Li Wen push his brand new bicycle.
"I have always had tickets in hand, and I still have one at home in the county town. It would be too ostentatious to buy it again. I happened to come to the provincial capital and exchanged the tickets that were about to expire, so it is convenient to travel." Li Wen explained with a smile.
"You are really awesome. You can buy a bicycle that costs hundreds of yuan at any time. You are richer than my uncle, the section chief. Look at my bicycle. I bought it five years ago." Sun Lianying smiled and took the photo.
Take a picture of your own car seat.
"Uncle Sun, don't call me poor. A 16th-level section chief earns hundreds of yuan a month. My aunt must also have a job. This income is still poor!" Li Wen joked.
"Haha! You're such a kid, I can't even say anything good about you."
"Love the Party, build the Party, Xiaofang, come out quickly and see who Dad has brought." Sun Lianying also lives in a Sanheyuan. As soon as he opened the door, Sun Lianying shouted loudly into the house.
"Why are you shouting? Who is coming?"
A female voice came from the kitchen, and then a woman in her thirties came out wearing an apron.
"Xiufang, this kid is Xiaowen I'm talking about; Xiaowen, this is my lover Zhang Xiufang." Sun Lianying pulled Li Wen and introduced with a smile.
"Hello, Auntie, I'm quite presumptuous in coming here today, so I'm sorry for bothering you." Li Wen hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
"Are you Xiao Wen? Hurry up and sit in the room. It's true that your uncle Sun didn't tell me in advance if you were coming. I have to entertain you well." Sun Lianying's lover saw Li Wen and came forward to greet him warmly.
.
"Haha! Auntie, I paid a rash visit today. I don't blame Uncle Sun." Li Wen said with a smile and waved his hand.
"Where are the children? Hurry up and ask them to come out and meet Xiaowen. Xiaowen is the author of future science fiction." Sun Lianying patted Li Wen on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"The warm sunshine in spring?"
"My dear! I have met a real person today. Xiaowen, the children and I like your work very much. Your writing about future technology is so good." Zhang Xiufang became even more enthusiastic now.
"Love the Party, stop reading comic books. Comrade Nuanyang, who you have been seeing all day, is here to see you." Zhang Xiufang shouted loudly towards the main room.
"Old Sun, you take Xiaowen in and sit down. I'll buy some food. I have to entertain Xiaowen well today." Zhang Xiufang took off her apron and wiped her hands before going out.
"Auntie, there's no need to go out. I've been in the provincial capital for several days and I really want to have a home-cooked meal."
