Since 1979 I have been in the tide of the times

Chapter 131

After the three of them had dinner, Ou Xiaoyang proposed to watch a movie at the Rose Theater here. The poster he saw was the award-winning film in Germany that had been screened for several months.

After buying the tickets, the three waited for half an hour and walked into the theater with the crowd. In less than 10 minutes, the theater with 1000 or [-] people was almost full.

Moviegoers come for the big prizes and word-of-mouth stories abroad.

At the beginning of the movie, a golden bear with its paws raised appeared on the screen. Wang Weidong was not in the mood to watch a movie. Since he returned to this land, he was completely relaxed and drank a little wine while eating. , Leaning on the chair, his upper and lower eyelids were fighting.

Reluctantly watching the movie for a while, Wang Weidong fell asleep to the rough singing of my sister you boldly go forward and the shaking of sorghum poles.

Ou Xiaoyang saw that Wang Weidong was asleep, and didn't wake him up. He didn't pat him on the shoulder until the movie was over.

Back at the hotel, Ou Xiaoyang asked Yao Qiming to live in a room alone, and he and Wang Weidong shared a room.

"Weidong, I've heard what Mr. Yao said, this time it's all up to you, otherwise the bean cake may be in vain, and our money will be wasted." Ou Xiaoyang said.

"It's not necessarily that serious. It's just that the officer procrastinates and shirks the blame, and finds reasons to push back and forth. In the end, things are likely to go wrong. Anyway, no one wants to take care of things that have nothing to do with them." Wang Weidong said.

"Teacher Yao did his best this time. He is an honest man. He can't do some things. You can't wait for a happy life. You have to fight for it by yourself. There are still a few months before the next trip. Help me I'll prepare two better lighters, and I'd better add a small tape recorder with a small notebook." Wang Weidong said.

"Okay, absolutely no problem!" Ou Xiaoyang said.

"Teacher Yao's 1000 rubles have not been touched. I used the rubles on my body all the way. I can take back the [-] rubles on him and give him [-] yuan." Wang Weidong said.

According to the current official exchange rate, the rubles are frighteningly high, but in fact it is not worth that much at all. Five hundred rubles are of course more than 1000 yuan according to the official exchange rate, but they may not be worth 1000 yuan according to the actual exchange rate.

Wang Weidong took out a piece of chocolate from his bag and threw it on Ou Xiaoyang's bed, saying, "Try it, this kind of chocolate is very good."

When he came back this time, Wang Weidong bought more than a dozen pieces of Red October chocolates to bring back.

"The last time I ate king crab and shrimp at a gathering at a Russian friend's house, the taste was pretty good, but unfortunately I couldn't bring it back. People who went to Ussuriysk with outsiders exchanged apples for flounder. In the future, we can also exchange the door Expand it a bit." Wang Weidong said regretfully.

"Chinese people can't afford these things now. What is king crab? I haven't eaten it yet!" Ou Xiaoyang said.

"I heard from Manager Larimov that they catch a lot of salmon every year. I also want to think about salmon, such as salmon roe. That kind of thing is very good, very good. Nutritious." Wang Weidong said.

"What are you going to do?" Ou Xiaoyang asked.

"Isn't nutritional supplements popular now? Have you seen all kinds of oral liquid advertisements? We can make nutritional supplements for salmon roe, which look much more real than those other nutritional solutions," Wang Weidong said.

"That's a good idea. Let's discuss it after we go back." Ou Xiaoyang said.

Sleeping comfortably in the hotel overnight, the three of them took the train back to Harbin the next day.

When Wang Weidong returned home, Chen Jihong watched him for a long time. After going out for nearly a month, Wang Weidong lost a lot of weight. Although he ate fried eggs and fried chicken leg patties every day, he still lost weight due to too much mental pressure.

Wang Weidong took out chocolates and shared them with the two of them. Grandma Huang Guiying ate a few mouthfuls and said, "I used to eat this. When I heard that your grandpa went to Harbin in [-], I came here to join him, and he ate it for me." , I heard it was obtained from soldiers of the great northern country."

For dinner, stewed pork belly with cabbage vermicelli was the smoothest and most delicious meal Wang Weidong had in a month, and home-cooked meals were the most nourishing.

"I forgot to tell you one thing. Not long after you left, a relative of Qu Xiaomei came here to find you with her address, and a cadre from the production team came with that relative," Huang Guiying said.

"Is there anything wrong with running so far to find this place?" Wang Weidong asked.

"That person came here and said that he wanted to cooperate with a talented person like you. After listening for a long time, he seemed to say that it was about the coal mine. Then he came again half a month later." Huang Guiying replied.

Three years ago, due to the shortage of energy resources, the country issued a policy of quick flow of water. Since then, small coal mines have blossomed everywhere, and many township coal mines have also appeared in Heilongjiang province, especially around several major mining bureaus, under the name of township enterprises. Dig a hole and mine coal.

"My sister-in-law must have told her about this relative. I have already publicized some bad money stories for me." Wang Weidong said helplessly.

No one asks the poor in the downtown area, and the rich has distant relatives in the mountains.

In the past two years, I heard that Wang Weidong is doing well. Some relatives came to the family of Xiangyang Chemical Factory to ask for help, but Wang Haifu and Li Yufeng invited them to a meal and turned them away.

This time, relatives of sister-in-law Qu Xiaomei came directly to Harbin.

The last time Wang Weidong heard about the coal mine was ten years ago when he heard from his grandfather that when Xiaobenzi was in Xiaobenzi, one of his uncle's brothers went down in Xiaobenzi and never came out again.

According to people who came back from the same village, the roof of the well caved in and the big rock killed my grandfather's brother, the uncle, and his body was buried hundreds of meters underground forever.

This incident left a fear of coal mines in Wang Weidong's heart when he was a child.

"How did you tell them?" Wang Weidong asked.

"I said you are on a business trip and don't know when you will be back. Besides, Weidong of the coal mine doesn't understand, he won't do it." Grandma Huang Guiying replied.

"Secretary Huang, you answered very well! Continue watching TV." Wang Weidong said.

After resting at home for a day, Wang Weidong and Ou Xiaoyang went to see the cod warehouse.It's winter now, so there's no need to worry about freezing. Ten tons of cod doesn't take up much space, so Ou Xiaoyang temporarily rented a large garage to store the cod.

"I found two mouse holes inside, first poured boiling water and then blocked the cement, re-smeared the wall joints, and finally laid two layers of plastic sheets on the ground and the wall." Ou Xiaoyang said.

"This batch of cod was shipped to Fenhe City by train just after it arrived at the port. It's very fresh. It's minus [-] degrees now, and it's getting colder every day. It shouldn't be a problem to sell it after December," Wang Weidong said. .

"I've done the math, these cods will have more than 1 yuan left after shaving off all the expenses. Next year we will do it again!" Ou Xiaoyang said.
