Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Chapter 190 Saving Money
Wang Weidong was instructing the workers to clean up the ground in the workshop. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Lou Xiaoe poking his head at the door.

He remembered the matter of going to save money.

"Section Chief Zuo, I still have some work to do, so I will leave the workshop to you." Wang Weidong smiled and looked at the old man Zuo, "When the operation officially starts, I invite you and Brother Aiguo to go to Donglaishun for a meal."

"Dong Laishun? That's a good relationship!" The old man Zuo narrowed his eyes and did not refuse.

"Then it's settled!" Wang Weidong had long planned to invite old man Zuo.Just take advantage of this opportunity.

The old man Zuo is an old man in the logistics department, and even the director gave him three points.

The logistics department of the rolling mill is the real power department, responsible for the supply of materials in the workshop, the payment of workers' wages, and the application for welfare benefits and subsidies.

Even the Propaganda Section is under the management of the Logistics Department.

After chatting for a few words, Wang Weidong quickly left the workshop.

"Are you in a hurry?" He saw Lou Xiao'e rubbing her calf, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

"Don't worry, you are busy with work, how can I drag you back." Lou Xiao'e smiled happily.

"Let's go, let's save money!"

The two left the rolling mill on bicycles.

Although it is working hours, employees are not allowed to go out according to regulations.

But the security officers at the gate saw the two of them and just pretended they didn't see them.

The two went straight to the bank on Xizhimen Street.

The outer wall is built of blue bricks, the inner wall is whitewashed, the ground is covered with terrazzo, and there is an iron fence in the middle.

As in later generations, I am here and the bank clerk is there.

The overall layout is a bit similar to that of a supply and marketing cooperative, but Wang Weidong took a closer look and found that there was no slogan on the wall saying "No violent beating of customers without reason".

Surprised, he looked around.

A "security guard" in a khaki uniform was staring at them warily.

Seeing Wang Weidong poking his head, he touched the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle slung over his shoulder.

Under the sunlight, the jet-black gun muzzle emitted a cold light, which caught Wang Weidong's eyes.

I bet he has bullets in his gun.

Wang Weidong's heart trembled, he showed a bright smile to the "security guard", and then honestly lined up with Lou Xiao'e.

The little girl at the bank is very professional, and her hands are very fast, counting the banknotes to "swipe".

After a while, it was Wang Weidong's turn.

"Comrade, I save money!"

"Comrade, you are here at the right time, our bank is holding a prize-winning savings event." The girl at the bank did not have the indifference of the aunt of the supply and marketing cooperative, and introduced with a smile: "Every customer who saves money will be eligible for a lucky draw. "

lottery?

Wang Weidong's first reaction was, isn't this a routine?

In later generations, it is not uncommon for depositors to go to the bank to deposit money, and the deposit certificate becomes an insurance policy.

But then I thought, in this day and age, if you engage in this kind of nonsense, you will probably be caught and paraded in the streets.

Just relax.

The little girl at the bank saw that Wang Weidong was hesitant, and immediately understood that this young man had never saved money.

Immediately impatient to explain.

Through the little girl's words, Wang Weidong gradually understood.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the people became richer. In order to encourage savings, the banks launched deposit certificates and certificates of "prize savings" and "prize savings".

Savings with rewards means that depositors can get a number by depositing 1 yuan.

If you win the first prize, you can get 50 yuan.

The second prize gets ten dollars, the third prize gets five dollars, and the fourth prize gets one dollar.

After maturity, the principal and interest can be withdrawn regardless of whether the lottery is won or not.

The decal savings with rewards is an upgraded version of savings with rewards, which is a bit like the zero deposit and lump sum withdrawal of later generations.

Depositors buy "flowers" (decal certificates) every month and stick them on their passbooks.

The denominations of decal certificates are generally divided into ten, five and one.It has a number printed on it.

After maturity, the principal and interest can be withdrawn with the passbook and decals.

On the 1st of each month, the bank will announce the winning numbers in the daily newspaper.

This is much more interesting than the bank deposit certificates of later generations.

Wang Weidong bought countless happy balls in his previous life, winning ten dollars at most.

He decided to give it a go.

"Comrade, save 300 yuan, the one with prize stickers!" Wang Weidong took the banknote from Lou Xiao'e and handed it behind the iron fence.

"300 yuan?" The little girl at the bank took the roll of banknotes, a little dazed.

These days, everyone is not rich.Most of the usual savers save money for one or five yuan.

Otherwise, the bank would not have taken great pains to launch prize deposits.

However, as a bank clerk who has seen countless banknotes, she quickly reacted.

A burst of dazzling operations and "Papa Papa!" After a few official seals were stamped, the passbook was handed out.

"Since you deposited 300 yuan when you opened the account for the first time, I applied for the entire account for you."

Whole household?What do you mean?
Wang Weidong looked at the word "whole household" printed in black on the passbook, and he couldn't understand it.

He turned his head to look at Lou Xiaoe, Lou Xiaoe shook her head blankly, she had never saved any money.

Lou Bancheng's family property is all gold, silver and jewelry.

"Cough, cough, comrade, what does this whole household mean?" There will be more opportunities to save money in the future, so Wang Weidong decided to find out.

"According to the bank's regulations, passbooks are divided into three types: full account, half account, and quarter account. This is related to the amount of money you deposit. Whole account depositors will be received by a special manager when handling business .” The little girl at the bank was very enthusiastic.

Uh, isn't this the VIP customer? !

understood!

After Wang Weidong thanked the little girl, he took Lou Xiao'e out of the bank.

He handed the passbook to Lou Xiao'e.

"Take it, housekeeper."

"The housekeeper?"

Lou Xiaoe was taken aback for a moment, then came to her senses, pursing her lips and smiling happily.

Housekeeper, this word sounds really nice.

Wang Weidong was about to ride his bicycle back to the rolling mill, but was stopped by Lou Xiaoe.

"Brother Weidong, you will be a cadre in the future, and it seems inappropriate to wear work uniforms."

Wang Weidong looked down at the blue and black uniform on his body.

Although it was clean, it had been washed white, and there were still a few holes in the corners of the clothes.

It should be replaced.

But the money has already been saved.

Wang Weidong was thinking about taking out the banknotes issued by the system from the ring warehouse, but was dragged into a small corner by Lou Xiaoe.

"Brother Weidong, I have money."

As Lou Xiaoe said, she took out a roll of banknotes from the inner lining of her padded jacket and handed it over.

Wang Weidong took the banknotes that were exuding warmth and counted them carefully.

More than 50 yuan.

"This is my private money. Your money has been saved. We are a family, so naturally we have to use my money." Lou Xiaoe's dark eyes reflected the brilliance of the sun.

"Okay, I agree!"

Wang Weidong recently had a bad appetite and couldn't eat hard food, so he put the banknotes in his trouser pocket without saying a word.

This move made Lou Xiao'e unable to deal with it.

She was still waiting for Wang Weidong to praise her a few words.

Even if it is just a sentence, moth, you are really capable, you can do it!
Well, maybe that's the case with Big Boss.

Lou Xiaoe comforted herself, and soon calmed down.

The two rode bicycles and came to the clothing store.

Wang Weidong chose a woolen Chinese tunic suit, draped it obliquely on his body, took out a cigarette from his arms, and held it in his mouth.

He squeezed his throat and said: "Cough, cough, don't use bean buns as dry food!"

Hey, it really smells like that.

In the future, I will also have four pockets!
Lou Xiaoe next to him stared straight at him.

People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. After Wang Weidong changed into a Chinese tunic suit, he vaguely revealed an inexplicable power.

This kind of power makes people involuntarily admire him. Even Lou Bancheng doesn't have it. Lou Xiao'e has only seen it in a big leader.

What a blessing to be married to such a man who does great things~
An ordinary day passed like this.

The courtyard house is still the same, no matter how noisy the residents are, it still stands majestically in the cold wind.

Entering the yard, Wang Weidong happened to meet Xu Damao walking in from the outside with his head drooping.

Seeing that Lou Xiaoe was holding Wang Weidong's arm, Xu Damao's expression darkened immediately, and he immediately opened the door and entered the room, hiding.

Hey, is this kid sick? Why are the dark circles under his eyes so serious?
Wang Weidong frowned.

When he saw Xu Damao, he remembered the tiger talisman.

However, the Tiger Talisman has already disappeared from this world.

What tricks can Xu Damao come up with?

Really looking forward to it.

Daily communication with Lou Xiao'e is inevitable at night.

Before he fell asleep, Wang Weidong realized that he hadn't signed in today.

"Ding, if you sign in successfully, you will be rewarded with five catties of flour and two catties of lean meat."

Listening to the system's notification tone, Wang Weidong couldn't help curling his lips.

This dog system is getting more and more stingy, and it doesn't even give money.

Go to sleep.

zzZZ, ZZzz
When you wake up in the morning, the first thing you do is check in.

Sign in every day, good luck all day.

"Ding, if you sign in successfully, you will be rewarded with five catties of flour and two catties of lean meat."

Wang Weidong:
After brushing his teeth and eating breakfast, Wang Weidong rode his bicycle and took Lou Xiao'e to the rolling mill.

This is half an hour earlier than his usual work time.

Today is the day for temporary workers to report, and he has to prepare in advance.

Lou Xiaoe is his assistant now, so naturally she has to follow.

It was only when Wang Weidong came to the eleventh workshop that he still underestimated everyone's enthusiasm for this job.

The team lined up from the workshop gate to the factory gate.

These people shrank their heads in the cold wind, their faces were full of uneasiness, but their eyes revealed hope.

Although the clothes they wore were clean, they were all small patches on top of each other.

Seeing Uncle Qin hiding in the duty room, Wang Weidong knew that it was probably because the notice from above did not come down.

He stepped forward and knocked on the glass window, and Uncle Qin opened the window.

Wang Weidong took out the sample of the communication card in his pocket, handed it to Uncle Qin, and said, "Uncle Qin, I forgot to inform you that the temporary union of the new workshop will report to the factory today. This is the sample of the pass, and there is another This list, please let me go according to the name on it, you must match both of them!"

Hearing Wang Weidong's words, Uncle Qin hurriedly came out of the duty room.

"Don't worry, Director Wang, my old Qin is an old man in the factory, and I will definitely handle it properly for you."

Then he shouted at the people behind Wang Weidong who came to report: "Everyone has lined up for me! Anyone who dares to jump in the line, don't even think about getting in!"

In fact, Uncle Qin's cry was completely unnecessary.

Those who come to report are all low-income households, and they cherish this hard-won job very much.

Without anyone shouting, they consciously began to maintain order.

After finishing Uncle Qin, Wang Weidong shouted to the team behind him: "Who is Zhao Jiefang? Come out!"

As soon as the words fell, a burly middle-aged man stood up.

"Report, I am Zhao Jiefang!"

Looking at Zhao Jiefang who held his head high and saluted him, Wang Weidong couldn't help but smile.

After he knew Zhao Jiefang's situation, he admired this kind-hearted man.

In addition, both of them are veterans, so they feel a lot closer at once.

"Brother Zhao, I'm Wang Weidong, you go in with me first, do you have your pass?"

Zhao Jiefang nodded hurriedly and said, "I have, I have!"

"Okay, show it to Uncle Qin, let's go in first."

"it is good!"

Zhao Jiefang didn't hesitate, and stepped forward to hand over the certificate to Uncle Qin.

After careful verification, Uncle Qin ticked off the list and let Zhao Jiefang go.

The others watched Zhao Jiefang enter the factory after Wang Weidong, but no one came out to shout or make a fuss.

When they saw Wang Weidong wearing a woolen tunic suit, they knew that he was the person in charge of the new workshop, their leader, and their benefactor.

When Director Wang went to notify these people, he didn't hide it, and directly told them that the poverty alleviation project was proposed by Wang Weidong.

In this case, they are naturally grateful.

After bringing Zhao Jiefang to the workshop, Wang Weidong gave him a brand new navy blue overalls.

This is what he applied to Director Yang before, even if he is a temporary worker, he must have work clothes.

And if this project is done well, it is not that there is no chance of becoming a regular.

"Brother Zhao, Director Wang told me about your situation. You are familiar with those people outside, so I would like to ask you to help verify the identities of these people at the door later." Wang Weidong said.

After what happened the night before, Wang Weidong was already on guard.

Never underestimate the lower limit of some people. People with evil intentions may do some tricky things.

After all, the residents in the vicinity are basically employees of the rolling mill.

It is not easy to let the family members who work in the rolling mill mix in with them.

"Okay!" Zhao Jiefang nodded, and said with a simple smile: "Leader, you can call me Old Zhao or Jiefang."

Wang Weidong patted Zhao Jiefang on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then you can take care of this matter. Workers who pass the verification will ask Assistant Lou to get their work clothes."

"Okay, I see."

After that, Wang Weidong went out again. The master he asked Director Yang to invite should have arrived at the meeting, so he had to pick it up.

Before reaching the door, Wang Weidong saw a middle-aged woman led by the factory manager's secretary.

After seeing Wang Weidong, the factory director's secretary smiled and walked forward quickly.

"Comrade Weidong, let me introduce you. This is the master master Yang invited you from the textile factory, Yu Qiuhua, Master Yu."

Upon hearing this, Wang Weidong first thanked the factory director's secretary, and then said to Qiuhua: "Master Yu, I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

Yu Qiuhua narrowed her eyes and waved her hands: "No, no, this is what I should do."

Wang Weidong felt a little strange, why did the master squint his eyes in broad daylight?
But he didn't have the nerve to ask, but wanted to ask if Yu Qiuhua knew He Yushui.

Two days ago, He Yushui seemed to have entered the textile factory through the relationship of a small police officer.

After exchanging pleasantries, the factory director's secretary pulled Wang Weidong aside and said, "Comrade Weidong, the factory director asked me to tell you that the situation of Master Yu's family is not very good. Her husband passed away early, and she took four children by herself. My daughter is going to high school this year, and the burden is heavy, and her eyes are sick again, so the factory manager hopes you can help her."

A master sewing master with poor eyesight has to work part-time...

Wang Weidong smiled wryly after listening, and the new workshop has really become a base for poverty alleviation.

There are too many people like Zhao Jiefang and Yu Qiuhua in this era.

Although some were suspected of favoritism and fraud, he gave Director Yang this face.

If Yu Qiuhua's skills meet the requirements, it doesn't hurt to give her a spot.

Anyway, being a master chef is mainly to teach those temporary workers how to sew cloth bags, without having to do it themselves.

Can help one, be one!

"Okay, then I have to trouble you to go to Director Wang of the Sub-district Office to get her a pass."

"This bag is on me!"

Wang Weidong nodded, said goodbye to the factory manager's secretary, and took Yu Qiuhua to the workshop.

Not long after leaving, Wang Weidong suddenly heard a noise coming from the front.

Looking up, a group of people were blocking the door of the workshop.

My heart shuddered, something happened?
