Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Chapter 139

After leaving his sister's house, Cao Zhiqiang went back to Chiguang Machinery Factory by car.

Next, Cao Zhiqiang went to Section Chief Zhang and told him that his work had ended and he wanted to return to the provincial capital.

In this regard, Section Chief Zhang kept a few words casually, and seeing that Cao Zhiqiang had made up his mind to go, he took him to see the factory director.

Originally, the factory manager wanted to have a farewell banquet with Cao Zhiqiang, but this time, Cao Zhiqiang insisted on not staying for the banquet, insisting on leaving immediately.

Cao Zhiqiang also said that if the Chiguang factory could not send a car, he could take a bus.

Now that this is the point, the factory manager can no longer keep him, so he agreed to Cao Zhiqiang's departure.

After all, no matter how you say it, Cao Zhiqiang is not their employee, but an outsider. If he wants to leave, they can't stop him.

In this way, even though it was still raining lightly, the Chiguang Factory specially dispatched a Shanghai brand car to take Cao Zhiqiang back to the provincial capital.

Without a word all the way, Cao Zhiqiang returned to Weihong Machinery Factory in the provincial capital smoothly.

After returning to Weihong Machinery Factory, Cao Zhiqiang first reported to Director Zhou, and asked for two letters of introduction to buy air tickets.

Since an extra letter of introduction was required, Director Zhou naturally wanted to ask about the situation.

Of course Cao Zhiqiang couldn't tell the truth, he just said ambiguously that this time he would bring more people back to Peiping.

Upon hearing this, Director Zhou happily opened a blank letter of introduction without asking who to bring, that is, the kind that only signed the name, but did not write the destination or the ticket buyer.

Don't look at only one letter of introduction, but according to Director Zhou's explanation, this is enough, and there is no need to open more.

Because the letter of introduction is just a ticket purchase certificate issued by the unit, it does not mean that one letter of introduction can only buy one ticket, and one letter of introduction can also buy several tickets.

If more than one person is going to the same destination together, one letter of introduction is enough.

Multiple letters of introduction are only required if you travel to different destinations at once.

In other words, after Director Zhou provided a blank letter of introduction, Cao Zhiqiang only needed to fill in the destination and the number of tickets purchased afterwards. Cao Zhiqiang could write these by himself.

After receiving the letter of introduction, Cao Zhiqiang refused the reception banquet proposed by Director Zhou on the pretext of being too tired, and only said that he wanted to rest early.

But this time, Cao Zhiqiang rejected Factory Manager Zhou's arrangement and insisted on living outside by himself instead of the guest house inside the factory.

The reason is simple, the guest house inside the factory is crowded with people, and it is inconvenient for Cao Zhiqiang to secretly take Qinghong away later.

After all, Weihong Machinery Factory and Chiaguang Machinery Factory are brothers, so there is still a possibility of leaks.

Seeing that Cao Zhiqiang was determined, Director Zhou had no choice but to write another letter of introduction, asking Cao Zhiqiang to live in the best hotel here—the No. [-] Guest House in the provincial capital!

As for the third guest house, don't listen to the bad name, it is actually the best hotel here in Guiyang.

Because the predecessor of the third guest house was the most luxurious hotel in Guiyang—Jinqiao Hotel!
Overall, in terms of living environment and various facilities, the third guest house is the best. Generally, foreign guests and leaders come here to stay.

Even now, the third guest house has not opened to the public.

Now that you want to live here, you still need a letter of introduction, and you only receive government agencies or leading cadres of large state-owned enterprises, or foreign guests and overseas Chinese with special status. Ordinary people cannot live here, even if they have money.

If this place wants to fully open up, that will be a later matter.

Originally, Director Zhou wanted to reimburse Cao Zhiqiang for his accommodation expenses, but this time, Cao Zhiqiang still resolutely refused.

In other words, as long as Cao Zhiqiang issued a letter of introduction to live in the third guest house, the accommodation fee would not be reimbursed, and Cao Zhiqiang paid for it himself.

This is mainly because I don't want to cause too much trouble.

Because Cao Zhiqiang understands very well that some advantages can be taken, but some advantages can not be taken, especially if he is not short of money.

After staying in the third guest house, Cao Zhiqiang went directly to the airport to buy a plane ticket early the next morning.

Airline tickets should be bought early, especially for direct flights to Beijing. There are not many flights now, and it would be good to have one or two a week.

To Cao Zhiqiang's surprise, it was easy to buy a plane ticket in the capital, but here, there was actually a queue to buy a plane ticket.

This is very strange. It is said that there are more flights in the capital city, and if you have to queue up to buy tickets, you must queue up in the capital city.

After asking, I found out that this is not Beiping. You can’t buy air tickets every day, but you can buy tickets once a week. If you can’t buy them at that time, you have to wait until next week, or next round.

To put it bluntly, there are too few flights here, so tickets are sold regularly, and the sales stop when the time is up. It is a bit similar to hunger marketing, but it is not the same.

The result is that it is very difficult to buy air tickets here, and you have to queue up, but when you really get on the plane, there may not be many passengers on the plane, and you are not satisfied at all.

Cao Zhiqiang was also lucky. When he came, he happened to be open for ticket sales, and it was considered early, so as long as he lined up carefully, he should have a chance to get in.

Cao Zhiqiang didn't have time to line up, so he wanted to find a scalper or something to jump in line.

But after inquiring around, I found out that there are no scalpers here to buy air tickets?

Also, the key to buying an air ticket nowadays is to ask for a letter of introduction from the unit, and only those who can issue a letter of introduction can buy a ticket.

And how could a scalper get a bunch of letters of introduction?Even if there is, the ticket seller is not a blind fool.

What if there are no scalpers?
Is it really necessary to line up honestly?
What about making trouble, that is the way of ordinary people, but we are Mr. Qian, can Mr. Qian use ordinary methods?

Ever since, Cao Zhiqiang decided to use the "money ability".

The ability to use banknotes cannot be used indiscriminately. It is impossible to directly buy a seat with the person who bought the ticket in front.

If he dared to directly buy and jump in the queue, he would definitely be kicked out this year.

After all, this was in [-], and the ability to make money was not as good as it was later. In many cases, it is not easy to use money even if you have money, especially in this kind of queuing situation.

But this is not difficult for Cao Zhiqiang.

Next, he aimed at a middle-aged man with glasses who was in front of him, there were only three people in front of him, and he was about to buy a ticket soon.

The reason why he was chosen was because this man was dressed in a suit and had oil on his head, so he looked like a philistine.

So, Cao Zhiqiang pretended to be his acquaintance, trotted over with a smile, and patted him on the shoulder: "Oh, you are here, let me find it easily, you forgot your things."

When the other party was taken aback and looked back at Cao Zhiqiang, Cao Zhiqiang had already handed over the work certificate, the ticket purchase letter of introduction, and the two great unity cards in his hand with a smile.

After sending it, Cao Zhiqiang blinked his eyes: "Leader, I'm Xiao Cao. You just received a letter of introduction, and I sent it to you. You are too careless. What can you do without this? Arrangement." You can’t buy a ticket if you join the queue, isn’t it a waste of time?”

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang approached the other party and whispered: "Comrade, do me a favor and buy a ticket for me together. The twenty will be yours, and you will get another thirty when things are done."

When the other party heard this, he looked down at the letter of introduction in his hand, and at the corners of the two pieces of unity under the letter of introduction, and rolled his eyes: "Ah, I see, thank you Xiao Cao."

"You're welcome." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Then you are busy, I will wait for you over there."

After finishing speaking, Cao Zhiqiang walked aside with a smile and waited.

Soon, the middle-aged man in a suit bought a ticket, and walked over to Cao Zhiqiang without waiting for Cao Zhiqiang to say hello.

Immediately afterwards, the other party handed over Cao Zhiqiang's unit certificate, ticket purchase introduction letter, and two air tickets.

Cao Zhiqiang took it with a smile, and then handed the other three cards of Great Unity, so far it is considered clean.

They nodded to each other, then left without saying anything.

Using this method, Cao Zhiqiang bought the plane ticket very quickly, without having to queue up until the afternoon.

After spending a lot of effort to buy the plane ticket, Cao Zhiqiang went back to the guest house and rested for two days.

On the afternoon of the third day, Cao Zhiqiang couldn't bear it anymore, and started a formal elopement.

The reason is simple, the fourth day is the day when the flight arrives, so he has to bring people over tonight, and then go directly to fly back to Peiping tomorrow.

First, Cao Zhiqiang approached the manager of the third guest house and asked the manager to arrange a car for a long trip.

At this time, the No. [-] Guest House in Guizhou Province was still a state-owned unit, and it also had its own cars, and there were a lot of them, and the grades were not low. They had all kinds of Hongqi cars and Shanghai cars.

Generally speaking, if you want to use a special car, you will be reimbursed by your unit, but here Cao Zhiqiang pays for it himself.

Of course, the manager likes Cao Zhiqiang's out-of-pocket behavior. After all, the out-of-pocket payment is paid immediately, unlike the reimbursement by the unit, which usually takes a year or so in arrears before the money is paid.

Ever since, under Cao Zhiqiang's money offensive, the manager happily emphasized a Shanghai car to Cao Zhi.

Well, the Shanghai car is the highest authority. After all, Cao Zhiqiang has no special status and is not high enough, so he cannot send a red flag car.

But Cao Zhiqiang didn't care about it, as long as he had a car.

After getting into the car, Cao Zhiqiang asked the driver to go straight to the county hospital where Qinghong was.

Originally, the driver was not happy when he heard that he had to run so far, but when Cao Zhiqiang directly gave the driver 30 yuan, the driver immediately put into gear and started without saying a word!
By the time Cao Zhiqiang came back to the county seat, the sky had already darkened.

After that, Cao Zhiqiang took the driver to a restaurant in the city first, and had a good meal. After eating and drinking enough, he checked the time and it was eight o'clock in the evening, and then asked the driver to drive him to the county hospital.

At this time, the sky in the county town began to rain lightly again, but this still couldn't stop Cao Zhiqiang's enthusiasm.

Asking the driver to park the car aside, Cao Zhiqiang came to Qinghong's ward familiarly.

After arriving outside the ward, Cao Zhiqiang did not enter immediately. Instead, he first asked the nurse on duty to see if there were any outsiders in the room.

After hearing that the patient was the only one in the room, Cao Zhiqiang heaved a sigh of relief, and then opened the door to enter.

After hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Qing Hong reacted immediately, looked back, and immediately put down the book in her hand in surprise: "It's you? You, you're here?"

"Yeah, I'm here." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, and took the initiative to step forward and said, "How is it, have you been feeling better recently?"

Qing Hong smiled: "It's much better. I've been living here for the past few days. I eat and drink well and sleep well. I just read books and take a walk when I have nothing to do. It's good."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "Where are your parents, have they come to see you?"

Qing Hong lowered her face, pursed her lips and said: "Mom visits me every day, and Dad, he came here once.

But when Dad came, he just looked at me from a distance and didn't talk to me.

Although I haven't talked to my dad, but I can see that he seems to regret it.

But I still can't forgive my dad.

So, so..."

Speaking of this, Qing Hong shook her head, and then continued: "In short, after Dad came once, he never came again, at least he never entered the ward.

Also, although my mother comes every day, she seldom talks to me, she just stays with me, looks at me, and seems to be careful with me.

I, I actually don't know what to say to them, and, I don't really want to see them. "

Speaking of this, Qing Hong raised her head, looked at Cao Zhiqiang firmly and said, "Take me away, I really don't want to stay here anymore, I can't breathe here."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded, and walked over to hold Qing Hong's hand.

Qing Hong twitched her hand subconsciously, but when she found that she hadn't twitched, she let Cao Zhiqiang hold her hand, but lowered her head shyly, not daring to look at Cao Zhiqiang.

Seeing her expression, Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, and while gently stroking Qinghong's hand, he asked softly: "I'll ask you again, are you really determined to go with me? You know it means what?"

Qing Hong was silent for a while, then raised her head abruptly, and looked at Cao Zhiqiang fixedly: "I know what this means, but, but, I, I am willing.

I said, as long as you take me away, I will be your woman, and I will never break my promise. "

Cao Zhiqiang smiled lightly and said, "Being my woman? That's not an easy thing. Are you really mentally prepared?"

"It's done!" Qing Hong nodded, took a deep breath and said, "It's come to this point, no matter how you treat me in the future, I, I will admit it.

Anyway, no matter how bad it is, it's better than staying here.

And, and I trust you, you, you will be good to me. "

"Confirm it one last time, you really don't regret it?" Cao Zhiqiang asked.

"No regrets!" Qing Hong shook her head with firm eyes.

Cao Zhiqiang nodded and said, "Remember what you said today!"

"Well, I've already thought it through very clearly." Qing Hong continued to say with firm eyes, "I will never regret it if I follow you!"

"Ok."

Cao Zhiqiang stood up, went to the side and picked up the guitar, then turned around and looked at Qinghong.

"I can assure you here that the decision you made today is a wise decision, because I will treat you well and will not make you regret it!"

Wu Qinghong also stood up, looked up at Cao Zhiqiang carefully, and then nodded: "I, I believe you!"

Only then did Cao Zhiqiang put his guitar back on his back, and extended his right hand to Qinghong with a smile: "In this case, then come with me, let's go far away and start a new life together!"
