The train driver in the courtyard

Master Lu once said: "There is nothing sadder in the world than parting. The only thing sadder than parting is the parting of a young couple."

Li Aiguo and his wife cherish their only one day.

After buying vegetables at the vegetable market, I rode my bicycle back to the courtyard.

After Aunt Liu learned that Li Aiguo was going on a business trip again, she inevitably muttered to him for a while, saying, "I don't have any children, I just work all day long."

He Yuyu also pouted. The little girl originally planned to fly a kite in the park with Zhao Xiaomiao on the weekend.

No matter how far you travel, there are always relatives and friends at home who care about you. Li Aiguo felt what the real smell of human fireworks is.

Li Aiguo used the excuse of traveling to hold a family banquet and invited Chen Fangxuan, his eldest brother and sister-in-law, and Wang Dakui.

Nan Yi learned about this from Liang Ladi, so he took half a day off and returned to the compound to help cook a sumptuous dinner.

After the family dinner.

After seeing off their relatives and friends, the young couple finished washing and got into bed.

Li Aiguo had really forgotten about this matter, and he pondered for a moment and said: "The Changxindian Railway Factory is going to expand its scale. When the time comes, a group of people will be hired. I will think of a way."

Li Aiguo and Engineer Dong are old acquaintances. As soon as they met, they handed out cigarettes and congratulated: "Engineer Dong, wait two years and you will be promoted to another level, and I will have to honor you as deputy chief engineer."

Night, dark.

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized that she had made a mistake and changed the topic: "Last month, my second brother called me and asked about the transfer."

Level 5 is an important watershed. The deputy chief engineer is at the national level and has a very high status.

"I seem to have recovered." Chen Xueru squinted her eyes, her cheeks were red, and she said softly and coquettishly.

"What's the matter? Second brother is also a member of my family." Li Aiguo buried his head in his arms, smelling the smell, and kept his hands busy.

Li Aiguo lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this driving mission is simple. It will only take half a month to go back and forth."

啵

Night, lively.

Unexpectedly, he later developed dump trucks, furnace incinerators, and it is said that the instant noodles that became popular all over the capital were also made by this boy.

Li Aiguo carried his luggage to the General Administration's Road Traffic Office on time to report.

After a while, Chen Xueru couldn't bear it anymore.
She turned over.
The next day.

"I really can't bear to have you leave!" Chen Xueru exhaled and said.

This year's technical personnel are divided into 18 levels. Levels 1 to 3 are chief engineers;

"Let's stop flattering each other. The leader is here."

"This is Li Aiguo, the train driver at the Qianmen locomotive depot, and this is the director of the Railway Research Institute."

This old locomotive factory has regained its vitality. Currently, the Changxindian Railway Factory is expanding its scale and is developing a 600-horsepower diesel locomotive for Beijing construction. It is in urgent need of various talents.

Wang Guozhen introduced Lan Yiguo and Li Aiguo respectively.

"You didn't even tell me where you were going." Chen Xueru said resentfully.

A while ago, the higher authorities put forward the slogan "Changxindian Factory is a big factory, and work must be done at the forefront."

Later, it was disbanded for a period of time, and after being reorganized, it was put under local management.

Working in a motorcycle factory was much higher than the salary in a steel rolling mill. Chen Xueru felt happy in her heart. After thinking about it, she pursed her lips and hesitated.

Levels 4 to 5 are the above-mentioned technical deputy positions; levels 6 to 9 are engineers;
10至13级为技术员；14至15级助理技术员，16至18级为实习生。

Looking at Li Aiguo in front of him, Dong Gong felt a sigh of relief.

When this kid developed the sandbag, I just thought he was a bit crooked.

When Li Aiguo saw Wang Guozhen walking over with two comrades in blue uniforms, he motioned to Dong to cheer up.

"Isn't it difficult?"

Dong Gong was promoted, and he was very happy. He took the cigarette and said with a smile: "It's not that easy. I know my own level. I will be satisfied with being a level 6 engineer with Teacher Liu in this life. But you, I heard that you have become a level engineer again." It’s a lot of work, it’s not easy.”

"These two are comrades from the Forest Industry Bureau. This is Comrade Yu Dafei from the Sen'an First Team, and this is Comrade Wang Xinyun from the Sen'an First Team."

Li Aiguo laughed, did not reply, and continued to enjoy himself.

Li Aiguo was stunned. Why did the Forestry Industry Bureau even send comrades from the Sen'an Brigade?

Dong Gong sighed, if this kid entered the Railway Research Institute, his achievements would definitely be far greater than what he is now.

Looking at the majestic signboard, he felt sad in his heart.

Engineer Dong was discovered by Mr. Liu Guozhang and promoted from Sifang Factory to the Railway Research Institute. He made many meritorious achievements in the project and was officially promoted to level 6 engineer this year.

The Changxindian Railway Factory in Fengtai is a long-established railway locomotive factory in China and the earliest birthplace of worker activities.

If a train driver goes on a mission with the gang of people supervising the train driver, does that count as a mouse acting as a bridesmaid to a cat?
Knock on the office door.

The second brother Chen Xingyi is a mechanic and can be regarded as a technical talent.

However, due to limited conditions, he could only repair cars but not build them.

Li Aiguo discovered that in addition to Wang Guozhen, an old acquaintance, the team that went to Daheigou to investigate the cause of the accident also included Engineer Dong from the Railway Research Institute.

The Sen'an Brigade is a relatively special team, and it is under the control of the Forestry Industry Bureau in this year.

It's just that these two people are obviously old-fashioned and have always looked serious, and it is not convenient for Li Aiguo to ask.

The investigation was led by the Lufeng Office, with Wang Guozhen as the team leader, and team members including Li Aiguo, Dong Gong, Yu Dafei and Wang Xinyun.

The location of the accident was very close to the Ilshi Timber Factory, and the three comrades of the driver team were also detained at the Ilshi Timber Factory.

There is no direct train from Beijing to Yiershi. You need to go through Baicheng Station of Shenyang Bureau, then transfer to Arshan Station, and then take a bus to Yiershi Timberyard.

Woo hoo hoo. Eat like crazy, eat like crazy, eat like crazy
A familiar voice sounded, and Li Aiguo lay in the private room until noon.

Seeing the meal, Wang Guozhen was going to buy food from the dining car and asked him if there was anything he was taboo about.

"No need. I know the chef of the dining car on this train. He's a big guy. He likes to make stuffed rice. Let's just eat this."

As he spoke, Li Aiguo took out the sack placed under his seat and dug out five packs of instant noodles.

"Do you want it?"

Yu Dafei, who had always kept a straight face, saw the oil paper packaging, and his expression changed at this time.

After taking the instant noodles, he looked Li Aiguo up and down: "Driver Li, there was a flight attendant passing by just now. I asked specifically. The supply of instant noodles has been tight recently. The supply has been suspended on the train, let alone the local supply and marketing cooperative. Where did you buy it? of?"

The supply of instant noodles has been suspended? Only then did Li Aiguo remember that this matter was still his fault.

With the popularity of instant noodles overseas, the output of the Qianmen Locomotive Depot Instant Noodles Factory is no longer able to meet orders from all over the world.

In order to earn foreign exchange, Li Aiguo suggested reducing the sales of instant noodles in the mainland.

"Even if there is no instant noodles available in the whole capital, Driver Li will not be short of instant noodles."

Dong Gong took a bag of noodles, put it to the mouth of the bag, took a deep breath, and said with admiration: "Yes, this is the taste!"

"How do you say this?" Yu Dafei seemed to be a cautious person and continued to ask while holding instant noodles.

Dong Gong handed the bag to him: "Did you see it? It is produced by the instant noodle factory in Qianmen Locomotive Depot. Driver Li is the factory representative of the instant noodle factory! The developer of instant noodles!"

As soon as these words came out, Yu Dafei's eyes suddenly looked different when he looked at Li Aiguo.

Yu Dafei glared at him: "You are the one who took five yuan out of my pocket every month! You also destroyed my family unity."

Li Aiguo looked confused.

Wang Xinyun laughed out loud: "Old Yu, don't scare people, you can't blame them, who told you to dote on your son too much!"

After chatting for a few words and figuring out the whole story, Li Aiguo suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

Yu Dafei was a veteran, and he had a son when he was nearly thirty years old. Naturally, he was afraid of dropping it when he held it in his hands, and he was afraid of melting it when he held it in his mouth.

His son especially likes to eat instant noodles. In the past, when the supply of instant noodles was abundant, he would show off a pack of instant noodles with every meal.

Now that the supply is limited, the child started crying when he couldn't buy instant noodles.

"Lao Yu, don't worry. When we return to the capital, I will get you a batch of instant noodles."

"Really? Then I'd like to thank you. I'm not afraid of your jokes. It's me who spoiled this child."

"Brother, that's not right. We work hard just for the sake of our children. Besides, there is no need to go online to eat a few packs of instant noodles."

"That's true. Apart from this problem, my son has no other problems. He ranks first in the school every year in the exam. Now he has joined the league and he is still an outstanding member!"

Yu Dafei was an old-fashioned man and kept his mouth shut when he mentioned his son. Wang Guozhen looked stunned.

Just a few packets of instant noodles and you can establish a relationship with the people of Senyasu Brigade. Is this okay?

After swallowing a pack of instant noodles and drinking the soup, several people breathed a sigh of relief, and their relationship became even closer.

Li Aiguo took out his cigarette and passed it around. After lighting it, he took a puff and asked, "Brother, why are you Sen'an paying attention to this accident?"

Yu Dafei looked at Wang Xinyun and then at Li Aiguo: "You are also a member of the investigation team, so telling you is not a violation. A while ago, the department received a lot of letters, reporting that wood theft occurred in the forest area, and the department ordered Strict local inspection.

After a year of rectification, the number of log theft cases in Iersch Forest District has dropped significantly.

However, the loss of logs is increasing, and the ministry suspects that there is a method of theft that is not easy to detect in the Ilsch Forest area. "

This explanation sounded vague, but Li Aiguo understood it.

To swat a fly, you must have the courage to swat a tiger, only in this way can you intimidate Xiaoxiao.

Especially in these years, various rules and regulations are not perfect, and forest management work is more like crossing the river by feeling for the stones. Once special circumstances are discovered, it is natural to take heavy action.

Moriyasu is the real Iron Fist.

After two days and two nights of traveling, the train stopped at Aershan Railway Station.

With his feet on the ground, Li Aiguo looked at the people coming and going on the platform, as if he had returned to the passionate days a year ago.

Aershan Station was built before liberation. It is very different from the train stations in the mainland. It is a two-story Japanese-style building with low eaves and spire in the Eastern style. The outer wall of the first floor is surrounded by randomly inserted stone walls made of granite. The roof is made of Covered with ocher cement.

"Let's go, Driver Li, the comrades from Iersi Lumberyard are already waiting for us outside the train station."

Hearing Wang Guozhen's voice, Li Aiguo came to his senses and strode out of the train station with his suitcase in hand.

Perhaps it was because the Sen'an brigade was at a relatively high level, and Ilsch's reception standards were also very high.

Ilsch Lumberyard sent a director with two Gas jeeps to the station in person.

Director Zhang met several people, greeted them warmly, and invited them to go to a nearby state-owned hotel to rest for a day before heading to Irsch.

But she was declined by Wang Guozhen: "Director Zhang, we all have tasks to perform. Now both the research institute and the railway bureau are waiting for the investigation results. I hope you can understand."

"Understood, absolutely understood."

Director Zhang is also an old agency, and when he sees the aura of these people, he knows that they are here to do something.

There is only one way to receive such people, and that is to make sure they get the job done.

Especially Yu Dafei, although they did not identify themselves, their military aura cannot be concealed.

Ershi belongs to Aershan City, Xing'an League, and is only more than thirty miles away from Aershan Station.

However, the road was dilapidated, and it was almost noon when the group arrived at the Ilsch lumber yard.

The Ershi lumber yard is the largest lumber yard in the Aershan region.

Chatting with Director Zhang along the way, Li Aiguo learned that the lumberyard has 17 division-level production, logistics, and auxiliary sections (teams).

Responsible for the overall production tasks of unloading, manufacturing, returning and loading of timber and some forest product processing.

It's said to be a lumber yard, but it's actually similar to a large factory.

Train 3134, which was involved in the accident, had been transporting logs to the Ilsch Timber Yard.

Currently, the main driver Zhang Ershan, co-driver Hu Guangzhi, and Xiaoshao Sun Jiayue of the driver group are temporarily detained in the security department of the lumber yard.

In that era, the lumber yard was equivalent to the "treasury" of the forest area, so the management of the Ilsch lumber yard was very strict.

Even with Director Zhang leading the way, the jeep entering the lumberyard still went through two inspections.

"It's almost noon. How about we go to the cafeteria to eat and then investigate the accident?"

Director Zhang suggested after getting off the Gas Jeep.

Wang Guozhen did not refuse Director Zhang this time and took several people to the lumber yard canteen for a working meal.

What Li Aiguo didn't expect was that the food in the cafeteria was better than that in ordinary factories in the capital, and he could actually see meat and fish.

Director Zhang explained: "This is game that mountain runners catch in the mountains."

In this year and month, the lumberyard had just been established, and only some formal employees were engaged in administrative and logistical acceptance work.

For example, the lumberjacks who cut wood in the mountains (many of whom were left before liberation), bosses (car drivers), porters, etc. are all called "mountain runners."

Well, it’s similar to the nature of temporary workers in later generations.

After dinner, Director Zhang asked the logistics department to clear out several rooms and an office, and introduced Section Chief Liu of the lumberyard security department to a few people.

I heard that the accident investigation team came from the capital, and the old security guard with the scar on his face seemed particularly enthusiastic.

"Welcome, welcome, welcome comrades from the capital to come and guide our work."

"Guidance doesn't count, Section Chief Liu, can we meet Zhang Ershan, Hu Guangzhi, and Sun Jiayue now?" Wang Guozhen was already in working mode.

"of course can!"

Section Chief Liu was as excited as if he was about to lose a hot potato.

Thinking about it, since the train accident occurred, several investigation teams have come to the lumber yard surrounding the accident.

Those investigation teams are all very high-level, and they can't afford to offend them.

The security department is tortured every time, so don't get angry, otherwise you might get slapped in the face.

This time such a high-level investigation team is here. If no problems can be found in the investigation, the whole thing will be over and the lumberyard can be quiet for a while.

At this time, it was inside the detention room of the security department of the lumber yard.

Xiaoshao Sun Jiayue opened the window and looked outside. Seeing that no one was passing by outside, she turned her head and lowered her voice and said: "Brother Zhang, I heard from the scar-faced man in the security department yesterday that an investigation team came from Beijing. What should we do this time? "

The driver, Zhang Ershan, took out a cigarette from his pocket, took a few puffs, and said, "What can I do? Of course I don't know anything!"

Sun Jiayue shrank her neck and said, "But, I'm afraid. Now that an investigation team has been dispatched from the capital, the matter is getting bigger and bigger."

Zhang Ershan glared at him and said fiercely: "You are such a coward, I shouldn't have taken you to do this in the first place! Xiao Sun, you have to think clearly. If you can't hold on anymore and the clues are found out, Maybe some peanuts.”

Sun Jiayue was startled and squatted on the ground, not daring to say a word.

Hu Guangzhi, who had been leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, opened his eyes at this time, walked over and took Sun Jiayue's arm to comfort him: "Jiayue, I know you are a good boy and an activist. Let you do this, you I can’t get over that hurdle in my heart.”

"Yes, this is a serious crime. When I first entered the locomotive section, I swore an oath in front of the flag. If my father knew that I did such a thing, he would definitely punish me."

As Sun Jiayue spoke, she sobbed softly.

"I lost the Sun family"

Seeing that he was about to have diarrhea, Zhang Ershan was about to get angry on the spot, but Hu Guangzhi glared at him.

This is very strange.

Generally speaking, the status among the members of the driver group is clear.

The driver is the highest, followed by the co-driver.

But Zhang Ershan seemed a little afraid of Hu Guangzhi. After being glared at, Zhang Ershan shrank his head and remained silent.

"Ah, open your mouth." Hu Guangzhi took out a cigarette, told Sun Jiayue to open her mouth, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Then he took out a match and lit it for him, and said with a kind expression: "Xiao Sun, no one wants to see things develop to this point, but since it has happened, we have to face it, right?"

After taking two puffs of cigarette, the spicy tobacco filled his lungs. Sun Jiayue seemed to be in a better mood and nodded.

Hu Guangzhi continued: "If you admit it now, what will your father think of you? I remember you have a fiancée, right?"

"She is a temporary worker in the Publicity Department of our Qianmen Locomotive Depot. We have agreed to get married on this National Day."

"As long as you die, the accident is an accident and you don't know anything. Once you survive this investigation, you can go back and marry your partner.

From now on, pretend that nothing has happened. In a few years, you can still take the exam to be a co-driver and finally drive a big train. "

In the light smoke, Sun Jiayue's expression gradually relaxed, and she nodded gratefully to Hu Guangzhi and said, "Uncle Hu, I listen to you."

"Hey, that's right. When you get married, I will give you a big gift." Hu Guangzhi stood up and turned his back to Sun Jiayue, with a sinister smile on his face.

At this time, someone opened the door lock outside and two security officers walked in.

"Zhang Ershan, Hu Guangzhi, Sun Jiayue, the capital investigation team is here, you follow me."
