National Beer

Today is Du Xiaoju's birthday.

When she woke up early in the morning, Xiaojuma started to roll the noodles. When Du Yuan got up and walked into the steaming kitchen, Xiaojuma's noodles were already in the pot.

"You said, it's a pity..." Xiaojuma started to repeat what she said last night. The matchmaker's house was given to Wu Geng. Qin Dong's building was far away in Shennan. The house on Murder Street was a restaurant, and there were also Beer workshop, "Where will Xiaoju live after getting married in the future? You can't squeeze with Liu Zhi and Qin Nan, right? Or, just live in our house? But where will Xiao Shu live after getting married?"

Du Yuan was cutting vegetables, and he couldn't eat noodles without the bitter. "What are you worrying about? Xiaoshu is still far away from getting married, isn't Xiaoju still unmarried now? Besides, Dadong is now the director of the branch factory and he is still worried. No house in the future?"

The sound of the kitchen knife hitting the cutting board seemed very pleasing in this quiet morning. Du Yuan said again, “It’s not easy for the military chief to pull a girl by himself. The girl is older and can’t stay with his dad. Dormitory, I think Dadong has done a good job."

Someone in the courtyard was talking. He glanced at his son who was practicing martial arts in the courtyard. Sure enough, when Qin Dong came over, Du Xiaoju opened the curtain and walked out of the house.

"Dadong, your noodles." When Qin Dong sat down in the kitchen, Xiaoju Ma smiled and served two bowls of noodles, one for Du Yuan first, and the other for Qin Dong.

"I'll take a few cloves of garlic." Qin Dong smiled and was about to stand up. Du Xiaoju already put the garlic in front of him, "Don't eat it, you are now the director of the factory, and the meeting is going to make people smell bad... "

Du Xiaoshu quickly grabbed a handful of peanuts, "Sister, are you now taking care of my Dong brother?" Xiaojuma turned her head to look at her children and did not say anything, "Dong brother, eat peanuts, there is no smell of garlic in your mouth."

"Today is Sunday. I'm not in the factory anymore. Uncle Xuehai is looking for something to do with me." Hulu-a mouthful of noodles entered Qin Dong's mouth, "Isn't it your birthday, I'll give you a gift."

"What else is the pager you just sent?" Xiaoju's mother smiled, but after all, Qin Dong didn't seem to have anything on him.

"Is Dadong here?" As he said, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Uncle Xuehai and Ergou walked in. "Lao Du, are you eating?" Both were very polite.

"Have you eaten?" The kitchen was too narrow, Du Xiaoshu placed a few horses in the yard, and Du Yuan smiled and took out his cigarette.

"Well, don't I want to move to Shanghai with the girl..." With a simple greeting, Uncle Xuehai explained his intention, "My house, Dadong said he wants it."

Oh.

The warm sun in the morning shone on Du Xiaoju's face, as bright as the morning glow.

Xiaojuma looked at Du Yuan, Du Yuan also looked at his lover, both of them looked relieved.

"Go, let's go see the house." Qin Dong showed Du Xiaoju.

Du Xiaoju smiled. The house of Uncle Xuehai’s is good. The new tiled house built the year before last is still in Zhongjiawa. In the future... it will be close to your parents...

The courtyard of the three houses has red tiles, green trees and white walls, as well as the east and west platforms. The cool breeze in the morning blows through, and the scent of locust blossoms is pungent.

The locust blossoms bloomed very vigorously, one humming and one humming, covering the branches and branches, and the whole tree bloomed into a white as jade hydrangea. The tree full of locust blossoms were shy and joyous in white clusters, and the yard was dark. Flowing floral fragrance.

Different from Du Xiaoshu just picking a few flowers and starting to chew and eat, Du Xiaoju likes to walk around in the yard at this time, stepping on the wet blue brick floor and smelling the fragrance of flowers everywhere, she seems to be intoxicated. In a dream-like world.

Qin Dong also liked this locust tree very much, and he liked to see the green leaves in spring when he looked up in the yard.

"how much is it?"

Uncle Xuehai looked at Ergou. Ergou acted as a middleman. He smiled and said, "Four thousand and eighty, our Zhongjiawa is only Dadong your family can afford."

"Okay." Qin Dong didn't bargain. He saw that the things in the house were almost packed, and he estimated that Uncle Xuehai would move out soon. "I will bring you the money in the morning. Now I will go home and talk to my sister. ."

Liu Zhi's complexion was still calm, but the corners of her mouth filled with joy, "Dadong, you decide by yourself, you move in, and Xiaonan and I will still live here." She took Xiaoju's hand and said, "In the future you will get married and live. In the yard, it is more transparent than the building..."

"Sister Xiaoju, do you prefer to live in a bungalow or a building?" Qin Nan asked nonchalantly.

"I can do it." Du Xiaoju didn't go through the door, but he was still a little twitched, "Well, tomorrow, let's go and clean up..."

...

In the early 1980s, when they got married, many people made their own furniture, such as sofas, tables and chairs. Large wardrobes, writing desks, etc. had to be purchased with a ticket. Qinwan No. 1 Woodware Factory's large wardrobes were the most popular, but the supply exceeded demand. Wumu Factory.

As a result, self-made furniture by young people has become popular. Many people will do carpentry work, but there is a shortage of wood. Some people jokingly say that there are more carpenters than wood.

In the mid-1980s, Qinwan furniture enterprises also began to introduce machinery and equipment for streamlining operations.Panel furniture came out suddenly, leading the trend of the entire industry.

In the late 1980s, modular furniture also appeared quietly, and symbolic modular sofas and modular cabinets began to sell well, and the people's quality of life improved a big step.

"Here, the sofa is here..." Lu Xudong's loud voice sounded in the courtyard again, "Hey, be careful...Be careful, don't touch the paint..."

Du Xiaoju smiled happily and watched as a group of workers carried in the new furniture. The paint on the furniture smelled very good.

Xiaojuma also came over. Amidst the laughter of Zhongjiawa's neighbors, she finally sighed, "This house is enough for a lifetime."

Du Xiaoju looked up at the Sophora japonica blossoms in full bloom under the blue sky. He steamed a pot of Sophora japonica flowers last night and the taste was very sweet.

Mother and willow branches picked up a few baskets and gave them to neighbors who did not have locust trees, so that they could fill their stomachs and taste the taste of spring.

...

Qin Dong also felt the smell of spring, and the locust trees around the second branch plant were also blooming. From a distance, they were white as rain and scattered all over the world.

In previous years, workers gathered here early in picking Sophora japonica flowers, but at this time, busy workers were everywhere in the front yard of the second branch factory. Those in the main factory, the south factory, and the east factory were all waiting for this important moment.

Outside the factory, the surrounding villagers also watched the excitement. Policemen stood on the road and in front of the factory. Everyone was talking and laughing, and occasionally eating a handful of Sophora japonica and talking about it from time to time.

Qin Dong chewed Acacia, the sweet fragrance refreshed his heart.

"Director, here, here." Huang Bo ran over and pointed to the cart outside the factory. Factory leaders such as Chen Shifa, Zhou Fenghe, and Wu Geng all came over. Everyone saw that there was a row in the distance. The big truck, on the truck, is the beer equipment transported across the ocean.

The surrounding roads are not good, and the equipment is very difficult to transport. It is full of imported large equipment. As a last resort, the public security has to come forward to maintain order. The height should be increased and the underground should be underground. These days, there will be traffic control.

For two days, day and night, the machine was finally transported into the factory, and the Germans took the technicians from the main factory and the second branch factory to install the equipment.

Chen Shifa smiled and walked slowly in the factory area, "Well, Qin Dong, your second branch used 3.75 million yuan to build a brewery with an annual output of 10,000 tons. Some leaders said that this is a miracle of "less investment and quick results". It became "a flower of the beer industry."

Generally, it costs at least 10 million yuan to build a brewery with an annual output of 10,000 tons. Qin Dong knows this, so Chen Shifa's words are not excessive.

"Well, the director, is this what you said?" Qin Dong smiled.

"No, Mayor Guo Peng said!" Chen Shifa said leisurely, "he also said, you promised him to remove the horse urine smell of beer. It has been almost a year now, why there is no result?"
