Chapter 264 Old Hu, a role model for men

After eating, Zhang Junping did not forget to remind Scarface that he would go to Dashilan to find him tomorrow.

After seeing off Scarface and his group, Zhang Junping returned to the restaurant to wait for his parents to get off work.

It's not good to open a restaurant like this, and I get off work very late every night.

Fortunately, in this day and age, everyone is not used to staying up late, and there is no so-called nightlife.

Basically, no one came to eat at eight o'clock in the evening, and at around nine o'clock, they all consciously ended, checked out and left.

Zhang Junping chatted with his parents for a while in the hotel, waited until they got off work, and then returned home together.

Zhang Junping had just finished feeding the puppies, and when he returned to his room, he heard Zhang's father calling him from behind.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Junping hurried around to the backyard.

Originally he planned to live in the backyard and let his parents live in the middle courtyard, but his parents disagreed, saying that they were young and had a lot of entertainment, so they insisted on living in the backyard.

"Where's the light cord at home? Why can't I touch it?" Father Zhang asked.

"Oh! I had someone change it today! Look, this is the light switch!" Zhang Junping pressed on the wall, and the lights in the room turned on.

"Did you change the lights too? How much does it cost in electricity for such a bright light? You young people are particular about looking good, so you can just change it in your house, and you don't need to change it in your father's house." Zhang's mother said dissatisfied.

"Mom, you're wrong. This kind of light doesn't look bright, but it actually saves more than half of the light bulbs we used before." Zhang Junping quickly explained.

"Don't lie to me!"

"Why am I lying to you! The light bulbs used in our house used to be 25 watts, but this one is only [-] watts. This is high technology, and I bought it from abroad." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Well! This is good, but it's too far away from the bed, so it's inconvenient to turn on and off the light." Mother Zhang stared at the light bulb, then looked at the switch at the door and said.

"Mom, look here, it's on the head of your bed, and there's a switch, once you press it, it's off." Zhang Junping walked to the head of the bed and demonstrated it to Zhang's mother.

"This is good! It's convenient!" Mother Zhang said with a satisfied smile.

"By the way, the toilets in our house have been installed with flush toilets, so you don't have to go out to use the toilet anymore." Zhang Junping led his parents to open a secret door and entered the side room.

This side room was converted into a toilet by Zhang Junping. The outer door was a fake door, and the inner door was blocked, leaving only the inner door.

"This is a flush toilet, you can go to the toilet on it, and you don't have to worry about your tired legs hurting after squatting for a long time.

After going to the toilet, press the switch and it will be flushed away.

You must remember that you have to press this to flush whether you are urinating or defecating. "Zhang Junping demonstrated it to his parents again.

"what is this?"

"This is a water heater, for bathing! Plug it in, and there will be hot water, so you can take a bath at home." Zhang Junping demonstrated it to his parents again.

"Pingzi, I think it's almost done. You and Yanzi's marriage should be fixed, right?" Zhang's mother saw Zhang Junping's marriage first after seeing the newly added furniture at home. .

"Mom, I'll discuss it with Yanzi's parents later, set a date, and then tell you." Zhang Junping also wanted to hold a wedding as soon as possible, and marry Yanzi back home, so that he wouldn't have to stay alone in the empty house in the future.

"Okay! Hurry up and discuss it with your in-laws! It's spring too, and it's not too hot or too cold for marriage." Mother Zhang laughed.

Zhang Junping was speechless, what does marriage have to do with spring?
Could it be that spring is here, and the animals are here again...

Zhang Junping agreed and returned to his room.

Reminded by his mother, Zhang Junping suddenly realized that he hadn't seen Qiu Wenyan for a long time.

It's been a week.

The Bureau of Light Industry seems to be very busy recently, and Qiu Wenyan didn't come to look for her.

For a while, Zhang Junping no longer felt sleepy.

Simply get up, take out the tools and continue working.

Before you know it, the night slips away at work.

Zhang Junping is young, full of energy, and staying up all night is nothing to him.

When I was a soldier, the longest record was three days and three nights without sleep.

Of course, the consequence was two days and one night of sleep.

In the morning, after eating, Zhang Junping first went to Nanxincang for a tour, missed a moment in various departments, and chatted with the training teacher.

I know that the learning attitude of those interns has improved a lot recently, and no one is absent from the formal staff training in the evening.

Then I said hello to Wu Xinping, and went home to continue making furniture.

After ten o'clock, Lao Hu arrived at Dashilan Courtyard.

"Master Zhang!"

"Old Hu is here! Come and sit in the room!" Zhang Junping put down the things in his hands, stood up and invited Lao Hu into the room.

After making Lao Hu a cup of tea, he returned to the main seat and sat down.

"Master Zhang, I've made up my mind! I'll give you all those things! Including the yard where I live now!" Lao Hu didn't gossip, he just talked about his plan.

"Okay! I still say the same thing, give me something, and you negotiate the price, as long as it is not outrageous, I can accept it." Zhang Junping also said with a cheerful smile.

"I can trust Master Zhang's reputation! It's just that I'm not the only one going out this time. There are a lot of people. I don't know if it's convenient for Master Zhang."

"This is understandable, you are also a person with a family and a family, so naturally it is impossible to go out alone.

How many people are there, have you figured out where to go? Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

"Just go to Xiangjiang, and get used to it in other places.

There are eighteen people in my family. "

"Old Hu, you are really thriving!

no problem!
You give me all your identity information, and when Dashan comes back, I will ask him to make a special trip to Xiangjiang to complete your account. "Zhang Junping laughed.

"I've prepared the identity information, let Master Zhang laugh!" Old Hu said, and took out the identity information that he had prepared earlier from his pocket.

Zhang Junping took it, opened it and looked at it.

The identity information written on the paper, the first one is Lao Hu, called Hu Songzhang.

The second one, depending on her age, should be Lao Hu's wife.

The third and fourth are seven or eight years younger than Hu.

The names don't look like relatives either.

After thinking about it for a while, I suddenly understood.

Good guy, this old Hu really deserves to be a role model for my generation.

No wonder, I was joking just now.

Directly married the third concubine.

This is not the key point. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were many married concubines of the third house and the fifth house.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, after the promulgation of the Law on the Protection of Women and Children, the existence of polygamy was no longer allowed.

Anyone who married multiple concubines before the founding of the People's Republic of China can only keep one concubine, and the other party will be given part of the money to let him leave and marry someone else.

Some naturally can't wait to leave and marry others.

However, there are also some special ones, such as true love and mutual affection.

Although legally divorced and separated, their relationship has not been broken.

When the protection law was first implemented, there were many disputes.

For example, the wife of the first room was dissatisfied with her husband and the second room, and the wife of the third room was inseparable, so she went directly to the police station to report.

Or because of this, there are quite a few people who kill people.

This is not the key point. The key point is that Lao Hu has been able to survive the special period in the past few decades and still survive their relationship.

That's pretty naughty.

"Trouble Master Zhang!" Lao Hu clasped his fists and said.

"Old Hu, you don't have to be polite about this! Besides, I've taken advantage of it.

In the future, when you arrive in Xiangjiang, you can also contact them frequently. If you have any difficulties, you can go to Zhou Dashan International Trading Company.

You and Dashan are also old acquaintances. Zhang Junping replied with a smile.

Zhang Junping was talking about taking advantage of those national treasure-level antique calligraphy and paintings in Lao Hu's hands.

Any pair of national treasure-level antique calligraphy and painting cannot be measured by money.

Not to mention after the founding of the People's Republic of China, but only during the period of the Republic of China, for a piece of national treasure-level antique calligraphy and painting, they could kill people to silence their mouths, and even wiped out people's families.

This kind of thing, Xiaobenzi has done a lot.

The people of the country did not do much.

"It's hard to tell who is taking advantage of whom. It's really inappropriate to take those national treasures out. I've also inquired. It's impossible to take national treasures out of the country through normal channels." Old Hu said with a smile.

During this period of time, Lao Hu has not been idle, and his network of relationships is still very large.

At least in the Forty-Nine City area, he is familiar with all the figures of the three religions and nine streams, and they have contacts with each other.

However, when it comes to immigration, especially family immigration, his network is not enough.

With his relationship, it's okay for one or two people to go out, but what Lao Hu wants is for all eighteen members of his family to leave, which is difficult.

It is okay to go out through underground channels, but the risk is too great. For a while, there is a risk in the middle link, and the other is that when you get there, not having a legal identity is also a risk.

Even in the most difficult years, he did not choose this way, let alone choose now.

After much deliberation, Zhang Junping's route is the safest.

Although he had to sell the national treasure-level antiques that he had worked so hard to protect, even at the risk of beheading, to the other party, it was better than taking the risk.

After chatting for a while, Lao Hu said goodbye and left, and went home to retrieve those national treasures he had hidden.

After seeing off Lao Hu, Zhang Junping continued to work.

At noon, I had lunch with Lao Ma and the others and continued to work.

Zhang Junping was busy until five o'clock in the afternoon when he packed his things and left the courtyard by bicycle.

Zhang Junping hadn't been here for a long time at the gate of the Light Industry Bureau, and he really missed it when he came again.

The young men squatting at the gate of the Light Industry Bureau have many new faces.

"Brother Zhang is here! Pick up my sister-in-law from get off work!" A young man came up to say hello.

"Yes! How are you doing? Did you succeed?" Zhang Junping threw a cigarette to the other party and asked with a smile.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Zhao Hongmei is willing to let me take her home now." The young man lit a cigarette for Zhang Junping and said happily.

"Then congratulations! Come on, I wish you a beautiful home as soon as possible." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

This young man has the talent of being a dog licker, and he is so happy just to send him home.

"Thank you, Brother Zhang, for giving me a good word from Brother Zhang." The young man smiled with anticipation.

It is estimated that after a while, the young man even thought of the child's name.

"Okay, your sister-in-law is here, let's talk next time we have a chance!" Zhang Junping patted the young man, and pushed his bicycle to meet Qiu Wenyan.

"Why are you here?" Seeing Zhang Junping, Qiu Wenyan was very happy.

"Come to pick you up! My mother said that she hasn't seen you for a long time and misses you. Let me come pick you up." Zhang Junping laughed.

"It's my mother who misses me?" Qiu Wenyan gave Zhang Junping a disappointed look.

"I miss you even more! If it wasn't for marrying you in sooner, I would have come here to pick you up a long time ago." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Then why are you free to pick me up today? The furniture is finished?" Qiu Wenyan looked expectant.

"It's almost there!" Zhang Junping showed a dejected expression, and then said with a smile: "This is not the toilet I bought in Prussia, the water heater, the socket switch, the rubber seat, and the mattress are all here. Come and pick you up." have a look!"

"It's all here? Then I have to go and see, what you said is so good, how is it!"

The two talked and laughed, and returned to the Dashilan courtyard.

Zhang Junping took Qiu Wenyan around the yard, showed Qiu Wenyan all the things he bought from Prussia, and finally put a mattress on the canopy bed in the east wing, and lay on it, smiling He waved to Qiu Wenyan and said, "Come on, try it too, see if you feel comfortable!"

These mattresses have a set of white covers. Although they are not good-looking, they do not affect their use.

Qiu Wenyan followed Zhang Junping's example and lay down.

"Wow! This bed is so soft! It's so comfortable to lie on!" Qiu Wenyan said pleasantly.

What Zhang Junping uses is a rubber mattress made of natural rubber. It has very good elasticity and can adapt to the curve of a person's body very well. It is a mattress that perfectly combines comfort and hardness.

Qiu Wenyan, who was used to sleeping on a hard bed, naturally felt comfortable at first.

In fact, anyone who has slept on a rubber mattress will feel this way, soft but firm.

This feeling can be experienced whether it is natural rubber or synthetic rubber.

"How is it? I didn't lie to you! Is such a mattress worth the wait?" Zhang Junping turned over, pressed Qiu Wenyan under his body, and asked proudly.

"It's okay! It's really comfortable!" Qiu Wenyan nodded, approving Zhang Junping's words.

"I asked Dashan to go to Suzhou to customize mattress covers and cushion covers. It is estimated that I can buy them back in one week to ten days.

At that time, our Qiangong Babu bed will also be ready.

At that time, I can sleep with my daughter-in-law in my arms every day. Zhang Junping smiled and pecked Qiu Wenyan's face.

"Virtue! I know how to think about those things all day long!" Qiu Wenyan blushed and gave Zhang Junping a pale look.

"What things?" Zhang Junping asked pretending not to know.

"Are you and I pretending to be stupid? What are you talking about? You know how to do bad things all day long!" Qiu Wenyan bit Zhang Junping's ear and whispered.

Qiu Wenyan's biting sparked a burst of flames.

After a long time, it was over.

The main reason is that the time and place are not suitable, otherwise the war will continue for a long time.

The two tidied up their clothes, went out to call Qiu's mother at the entrance of the alley, and told Qiu's mother that Qiu Wenyan would not be coming home today.

Anyway, the two of them had already received their certificates, and Qiu's mother no longer worried about whether Qiu Wenyan would go home or not.

After the phone call, the two came to the restaurant.

When Zhang's mother saw her daughter-in-law, she immediately put Zhang Junping to the back of her mind, took Qiu Wenyan's hand, and chatted cordially.

Zhang Lihong looked a little jealous.

"Brother, the restaurant's business is so good that it's fully booked even three days later."

"All the reservations after three days are full?" Zhang Junping was also a little surprised.

Is the consumption level of people in this age so high?

"Hmm! Look in the lobby, the line is starting now!" Zhang Lihong pointed to the lobby on the first floor.

"I remember there should be spare chairs in the warehouse, right?

You ask someone to take some chairs and put them outside, and when you enter the door, you are the guests. It is not good to let the guests stand and wait.

Get ten chairs by the door so that those who are waiting can have a place to sit. "Zhang Junping explained to Zhang Lihong.

"Oh! I'll get someone to move the chair right away." Zhang Lihong agreed, and ran to find someone to move the chair.

Zhang Junping's casual words made the reputation of Zhiweizhai Restaurant rise a lot.

In this era, it can be said that there is no restaurant that can consider customers so much.

The reputation skyrocketed, which also drove the business, which became even more popular.

Originally, the box was only reserved for three days, but it was booked for a week later.

In other words, if you want to eat at Zhiweizhai, you need to make an appointment one week in advance.

Of course, these are all things to follow.

In fact, Zhang Junping had considered this situation a long time ago, so at the beginning, he reserved more than a dozen private rooms in the back yard, only for VIP customers.

It's just that, at this time, they are not called VIP customers, but honored customers.

To put it bluntly, it is reserved for those big leaders who cannot be offended or those second and third generations in Haizi.

Ordinary guests, including leaders of various units, can only book private rooms on the second and third floors.

Private rooms in the backyard are only reserved for those who never make reservations or for big leaders who have temporary reception tasks.

After chatting with Zhang's mother for a while, Zhang Junping packed a few dishes and returned to the courtyard with Qiu Wenyan.

Originally, Qiu Wenyan was embarrassed to leave, but was driven away by Zhang's mother.

Seeing that she was here and really couldn't help, Qiu Wenyan left with Zhang Junping.

Back in the courtyard, Lao Ma and the others just finished their meal.

"Manager Zhang, the furniture is finished today, what do you think we have planned for tomorrow?" Lao Ma was very disciplined, and did not come to look for him until Zhang Junping and Qiu Wenyan had finished eating.

"You guys are going to Nanxincang tomorrow, do you know the place?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

"I know, who in BJ doesn't know Nanxincang." Lao Ma said with a smile.

"I'll be there tomorrow, and I still need to build some shelves and display counters," Zhang Junping said.

"Okay, then let's go directly there tomorrow!
What about these chainsaws? "

"Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to pull it over."

As soon as the old horse left, the old Wang's wife came in a little embarrassed, "Manager Zhang, will I not use that tomorrow?"

During this period of time, Lao Wang's daughter-in-law was very happy working here. Although the money was not much, it was enough for the family's expenses.

More importantly, Zhang Junping asked Lao Wang's wife to take home the rest of the food, which was the big deal.

Regardless of the fact that there is not much left, it is not enough for one person to eat, but there is enough oil and water, and if you add some food when you go home, the little grandson will eat a lot more than usual.

"If you don't mind, you can go to Nanxincang tomorrow too! Be a temporary worker and help out in the cafeteria." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

He is very satisfied with the character of Lao Wang's wife.

Although Zhang Junping has never restricted how many meals to cook, and even allowed Lao Wang's wife to take home the leftovers.

However, Mrs. Wang's wife didn't deliberately make more meals because of this.

Always cook and cook with the number of people stuck.

This is a test of character.

Therefore, Zhang Junping doesn't mind the art company having a temporary kitchen worker.

"Thank you, Manager Zhang, I don't mind! It's great to be a temporary worker." Lao Wang's wife bowed to Zhang Junping in surprise and thanked him.
