I Had a Home In 1982

Chapter 192: 191. Xiaoqiu's grandfather is sick (the weather turns cold, note

   Chapter 192 191. Xiaoqiu's grandfather is sick (the weather turns cold, pay attention to protect yourself)

   In the end, Wang Yi accepted Cao Dawang's advice.

   In the future, the production team will play movies without charging, and nominally provide spiritual entertainment and enrich the spiritual life for the members of the outer islands.

   But diesel is needed to play movies, because the whole machine belongs to the collective production team, so the members of the production team do not need to provide diesel, and the members of the other teams need to supply diesel if they want to watch movies.

   As for how much to supply?

   Just give a heart, just give diesel fuel for three cents and two cents at a time.

   Of course, you can’t buy diesel for 3 cents or 2 cents, and it’s not easy to measure the amount of fuel, so you can let each production team or village organize itself and find someone to collect the big guy’s diesel and deliver it together…

  Wang Yi poured sour plum soup for Cao Dawang: "Big brother drink soup, big brother is awesome."

   I'm going to bring a bucket of sour plum soup to my eldest brother later, so I can't let people give me free advice. Although this is not a coup that I couldn't think of, but they helped me after all.

  The two sides have finalized the cooperation matters. In the future, the Tianya Island production team can go to their movie station to apply for borrowing videotapes, and the videotapes that Wang Yi has tinkered with will also be loaned to them for viewing.

   Cao Dawang and Yu Jun are willing to cooperate with him because Wang Yi promised them:

  In the future, I will occasionally rent videotapes from movie theaters in the capital or big cities like Shanghai. When the production team is finished, I will lend them to relatives and friends for a few days.

They usually have to go to the county seat to watch a movie, and even the city is rarely able to go there. The county has fewer cinemas and fewer movies that can be shown. Even if they are willing to spend money, they still have a lot of good movies to watch. not.

   In 1982, the movie was not released in a unified national cinema, but by the cooperation between the studio and the cinema, and the videotapes were distributed downwards.

   Therefore, some movies are often released in big cities, but have just been released in small places, while some movies are directly shown in big cities and not shown in small places.

   In order to show sincerity, Wang Yi handed over the videotape of "Shaolin Temple" to the two on the spot.

   He lent it to two people for three days. After three days, the salesperson who went to the county to sell cold vegetables would go to their movie station to bring back "Shaolin Temple", and at the same time, he would borrow two old movies from them.

   The two sides shook hands as an agreement, and then Cao Dawang and Yu Jun quickly left.

  The intensity of their screening team is to work every day and take a day off. In other words, if there is a screening task yesterday, it will be gone today, so the two have no task today, and they want to go back and gather relatives and friends to watch "Shaolin Temple".

   Wang Yi is right.

   "Shaolin Temple" is good-looking, but a ticket costs a few cents, and many people are reluctant to watch it. Even among their relatives and friends, they don't watch much. If the two of them show the movie to them, it will definitely be interesting!

   Earlier, Wang Yi learned on the Internet that "Shaolin Temple" sold 160 million yuan at the box office in 1982 with a movie ticket price of 10 cents.

But some people say that this is fake, because "Shaolin Temple" is the first film jointly produced by the mainland and Hong Kong Island, and it was created for publicity to make such a box office. Played "Old Xu You Want Your Wife or Not".

  Yes, it is another movie in Wang Yi's hands: "Wrangler".

   Relying on this "Wrangler", Zhu Shimao with thick eyebrows and big eyes is the dream lover of girls of this era, the favorite of young women, and the friend of middle-aged and elderly women.

   However, Wang Yi thinks that the statistics may be biased, or the environment around him has caused a bias. In his opinion, "Shaolin Temple" is more popular than "Wrangler".

   When they went to the county seat in April, the "Wrangler" was still a dime a ticket, and several people told Wang Yi that a ticket for "Shaolin Temple" was so hard to find that the movie theater increased the price for takeout tickets!

   Of course, this has nothing to do with him, anyway, he doesn't plan to go to 1982 to make movies, play scripts, and make female stars, no matter how much they box office.

   But we can see who is more popular tonight - Wang Yi lent "Shaolin Temple" to Yu Jun and Cao Dawang, so naturally he can't play "Shaolin Temple" tonight, he wants to play "Wrangler" tonight!

   In addition, he asked Qiu Danian to buy some movie videotapes, some of which will be released later.

   This is why he pestered Cao Dawang and Yu Jun to borrow videotapes from their movie station. In the future, he would ask Wang Xianghong to borrow videotapes from the county movie theater.

   He must have multiple channels where he can get videotapes. Only in this way can he fish in troubled waters and release the films brought by 22 years in a grand manner.

  Wang Yi sent Cao Dawang and Yu Jun away. Wang Xianghong also sent him a ride out of courtesy after seeing it. Then he asked Wang Yi, "What are you two doing here?"

  Wang Yi said: "Let's give some pointers on how to show the movie, the secretary, we thought wrong before, we can't directly collect money to sell tickets..."

   He told Wang Xianghong about Cao Dawang's analysis and advice, and Wang Xianghong followed suit: "This is a good idea. Indeed, we will consume diesel fuel for the movie, so whoever wants to watch it can gather some diesel oil together, and can't watch it for nothing."

   "And in the past two years, didn't the outside world say that our production team is a big backward, poor people? It's just that they are rich, they are rich, and the rich can't take advantage of the poor, right?"

   The old party secretary was very worried about this.

   As soon as I have the opportunity, I will criticize this statement a few times.

   Obviously, he knew the situation on the island.

   Because the more people who lack something, the more they care about what others mention.

  Wang Yi said: "Yes, let's do this. In the future, diesel will be indispensable. I made an agreement with Cao and Yu, and we will borrow videotapes from their movie station in the future."

   "Can this work?" Wang Xianghong said.

  Wang Yi said: "Yes, you can also ask Manager Xu or other friends to see if you can borrow the video tapes from the cinema in the city."

   "I've already inquired about it, and now only the original videotape will be recovered and sealed, and many copies are left directly in the subordinate cinemas. And now the videotape has no key, and our projectors can still play it..."

   "No," Wang Xianghong interrupted him, "You don't understand what I mean, I mean we're going to borrow tapes for nothing, can they lend us?"

  Wang Yi said: "If you don't lend it to us for nothing, I lent them the tapes of "Shaolin Temple". It's a resource sharing."

"What? You lent them "Shaolin Temple"? What do you do tonight?" Wang Xianghong was in a hurry, "Mr. Wang, you borrowed this tape, you have the right to dispose of it, I will not interfere with you. s arrangement."

   "The question is, haven't we spoken out? We have a movie to play tonight, this, this, the people from the outside team came and we didn't have a movie to play..."

   He was embarrassed.

  The old party secretary wants face, and he will never do anything that breaks promises in his life.

  Wang Yi said with a smile: "Let's put the words out, there will be a movie tonight, but I didn't say "Shaolin Temple"! I also have a video here, which is also very nice, called "Wrangler"!"

  Wang Xianghong said: "'Wrangler'? I remembered, when we went to the county to sell pork, the movie was playing 'Wrangler'?"

  Wang Yi said: "Yes, it's the "Wrangler", it's good-looking, don't worry, it's definitely good-looking!"

   "And there's another reason why I switched movies today."

"Look at the party secretary, last night we played "Shaolin Temple" three times in a row. People from the outside team said that they didn't watch enough, but many people have finished watching it after all, and the temptation is not so great, right? The weather is good these days. , It's the big yellow croaker flood season again, and many people are busy during the day, so they won't come tonight."

   "More people didn't see "Shaolin Temple" yesterday, they heard about the movie, and they will come to watch "Shaolin Temple" with our team tonight, right?"

   Wang nodded to Hong.

   This is true.

Wang Yi said: "But we don't give them movies for nothing, we want to find a way to make money for the team collectively and lead the members to get rich, and I only have two films "Shaolin Temple" and "Wrangler" for the time being, big guy. I get tired of watching it for a few days.”

   "In this case, we have to maximize the benefits of the two films, so we have to show them at intervals."

   "Look, I thought "Shaolin Temple" was going to be released tonight. Those who have seen it will not come, and those who haven't seen it will come here with great enthusiasm and anticipation."

   "As a result, we put "Wrangler"!"

   "Those who didn't show up like this won't be able to watch the new movie, and they'll definitely be annoyed..."

   "Yes, I slapped myself in annoyance." Wang Xianghong said with a smile, he knew better than Wang Yi how attractive it is to watch a new movie on the outer islands these days.

Wang Yi nodded and continued: "And what about those who haven't seen "Shaolin Temple"? They have no reason to be angry because they can't see "Shaolin Temple" after seeing "Wrangler". After all, this is also a new movie, and it is also free for them Look."

   "But they definitely still want to watch "Shaolin Temple", they will be itching in their hearts, and they have been thinking about this matter."

   "Wait until the "Shaolin Temple" videotape comes back in two days, and we start collecting diesel fuel to play the movie, then they will definitely watch it."

   said, Wang Yiyi clapped his hands: "How about it? The two movies have stirred the hearts of all those who want to watch movies. Isn't this the maximization of profits?"

   Wang Xianghong looked at him and said, "You are right, you kid, you have a capitalist brain!"

  Wang Yi said: "But I don't engage in capitalism, I just make a good life for our team collectively!"

   Wang Xianghong smiled and said: "Okay, you can just think so."

   "I am the old brain, you are the new brain, the old brain must make way for the new brain, the old guy must respect the opinion of the little guy!"

After saying a witty remark, he sighed again: "Comrade Chairman is right, the world is yours and ours, but in the final analysis it is yours. You young people are full of vigor and flourishing period, like eight or nine o'clock in the morning. The sun, hope is pinned on you!"

   In the end, he patted Wang Yi on the shoulder and encouraged him: "You have done a good job after you come back, but beware of arrogance and impatience, and bring our team better!"

  The old party secretary has a faint meaning of taking a back seat.

   As he told Shouxing Ye to the members before, he is not a person who covets power. The reason why he resolutely changed his career from the army was that he wanted to bring the old and young masters of the Wang family to live together.

   But he took Tianya Island for 20 years and did not bring Tianya Island to a well-off road, and Wang Yi's return in just two months has already changed the spirit and life of the members.

   Then he should give up his seat.

  The old party secretary is stubborn but not ignorant.

   This is also the reason why the members believe him. Everyone knows that the old party secretary is dedicated to the team, and they also know that Teacher Wang is also dedicated to the team.

Wang Yi saw the meaning of the old party secretary, he said frankly: "Secretary, I am young now, young and aggressive but easy to make mistakes, we have to steer the ship of Tianya Island, and I will serve you as your assistant. Learn and give you some advice.”

   "I'm only a little smart now, but I still lack great wisdom and rich experience. I still need to learn from you, Lord Shouxing, and our members how to behave in the world!"

   It wasn't that he was coaxing Wang Xianghong to be happy, it was what he said in his heart.

  Wang Yi is a person with a B number.

   He never dared to underestimate the people of any era. What he eats on the island now depends on the material support from the future and the control of future policies and future social trends.

   In short, he can use 22 years of resources to fill Tianya Island from the inside, but he can't contact and deal with all aspects of the outside world, and then bring Tianya Island to a height that is recognized and envied by the outside world.

   He felt that for the time being, the best development plan for Tianya Island was Wang Xianghong’s control over the outside world.

  Public works are all made by Wang Xianghong.

  Wang Yi addresses the living needs of the members.

   To put it simply, what the golden finger can solve is done by Wang Yi, and what the golden finger cannot solve is up to Wang Xianghong.

   His attitude made Wang Xianghong very happy.

   It's not that he is still a party secretary, but that the young man Wang Yi is not as frizzy and sharp as other young people.

   Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Wang Dongxi in the office.

  Wang Dongxi felt inexplicably cold and shivered. He sipped on his clothes and thought, did he have kidney deficiency? Why is it that it's hot tomorrow, but I always feel cold all over?

  Wang Yi talked to Wang Xianghong for a few words and left.

  Waiting for Autumn Weishui.

   This time I really looked through the autumn waters.

   Waited from morning to noon and then to afternoon, and then brought Zhang Youxin.

   Zhang Youxin wore aviator sunglasses and drove the boat very windy.

After mooring, when he saw him standing on the dock, he handsomely took off his sunglasses and hung them on his chest, and said with a smile, "Mr. Wang, you see that you are in a hurry, I said that I will help you carry the goods for you, this is not what you want, I am Do you have to find a way to save it for you?"

  Wang Yi asked him to occasionally help bring some things from the department store in the city.

   Actually, he didn't need it, he just provided a reasonable way for some goods in his store.

   So he was not in a hurry and said, "I'm not waiting for you..."

   "Wait for Comrade Xiaoqiu?" Zhang Youxin then asked, and he handed Wang Yi a letter, "Comrade Xiaoqiu went to give it to me in the morning."

  Wang Yi quickly took the letter and opened it to take a look.

  According to his experience in watching romance films, one of the couples who originally agreed to meet on a certain day and a certain place did not come and asked an outsider to help bring a letter, so the follow-up plot is not very good.

   Fortunately, the film is just a film.

  Wang Yi unfolded the stationery and looked at it, and there were beautiful handwritings of Qiu Weishui on it.

   Qiu Weishui couldn't come today. Her grandfather was not feeling well yesterday. Today, she will be sent to a nursing home in Hudu for an examination or even hospitalization. She has to take care of her and stay in bed, so they may not see each other in the next few days.

  Wang Yi was worried when he saw it.

   Qiu Weishui's parents are gone, and now there is only one relative, her grandfather, and her grandfather has a physical problem and needs to be hospitalized, so she must be under a lot of psychological pressure, and I am afraid she will feel lonely and helpless.

   He had to go there if he wanted to.

   Go see the old man and help Qiu Weishui take the pressure.

   But the old man went to Hudu for examination and hospitalization. There are too many hospitals in Hudu, how can this be done?

   His pressure came immediately.

   Draws his sword and looks around in a daze!

   Seeing his bad mood, Zhang Youxin asked tentatively, "Are you having trouble?"

   He comforted Wang Yi again: "Hey, Brother Youxin told you that women are very strange, so stay away."

   "Men have to drink. Wine is a good thing, and wine is the most reliable. Let me tell you, women are unreliable, they always make you embarrassed and make you sad, so there is brother Xin to accompany you for a drink?"

  Wang Yi couldn't help laughing: "I don't like drinking, I like women."

"What's good about women? Don't you just have two more pieces of meat?" Zhang Youxin looked disdainful, "You listen to me, drinking is the most comfortable, women will only make you uncomfortable, look, Comrade Xiaoqiu has made you uncomfortable. Bar?"

  Wang Yi said helplessly: "What, I'm uncomfortable because Xiaoqiu's grandfather is in the hospital. I want to go see the old man, but I don't know where he lives!"

   Zhang Youxin said: "Just because of this you feel uncomfortable?"

   "Or else?" Wang Yi said.

Zhang Youxin said angrily: "Otherwise, you two will quarrel - it seems that I guessed wrong, then this matter is easy to handle, you don't know where Xiaoqiu's grandfather is hospitalized, why don't you ask me? I know! "

  Wang Yi was surprised: "You know? I'm so stupid, Brother Youxin, did I underestimate you? Do you still know where Grandpa Xiaoqiu is hospitalized?"

   Zhang Youxin said: "You really underestimate me. I do know that her grandfather must be in the East China Sanatorium if she is to be hospitalized, but I don't know if you can get in. The East China Sanatorium is not open to the public."

  Wang Yi asked tentatively, "If it's not open to the public, that means it's a family—"

   "Well, a sanatorium for veteran cadres." Zhang Youxin said, "Don't you know? This is the only sanatorium for cadres in Shanghai that Marshal Chen Yi personally chose and built."

  Wang Yi has deduced from some of the information that Qiu Weishui has sent many times and occasionally revealed that her grandfather is a cadre, so this information is not too shocking.

   So he asked, "What level of leader is Grandpa Xiaoqiu?"

   Zhang Youxin looked at him in surprise: "Didn't Comrade Xiaoqiu say anything?"

  Wang Yi shook his head: "We rarely talk about family information."

   Zhang Youxin said: "Then you can ask her yourself. I may be a bit talkative about what I said. Anyway, you went to the sanatorium and told Mengang that you were looking for a leader from Haifu County to recuperate. Mengang will definitely know who you are looking for."

   "Okay, I see you're busy, so I'll go first."

   "That's right!" He patted his head violently again, "Comrade Xiaoqiu also asked me to bring you a pair of shoes, aren't these children's shoes? What are you bringing them for?"

   He took out a pair of white jue lee sneakers from his briefcase.

   Shoes for pig trotters.

  Wang Yi was even more touched after seeing the shoes.

   Even though her only relative is sick, the girl still misses her students.

  What a girl!

  Wang Yi put away the shoes and told him to wait for a while, then went back and put the things down and said to Wang Xianghong: "Xiaoqiu's grandfather is not feeling well and is hospitalized. I have to go see his old man..."

   "Then you must go." Wang Xianghong said decisively, "Leave today or tomorrow?"

  Wang Yi said: "I'm going to leave now. Her grandfather went to Shanghai to be hospitalized, in the Huadong Sanatorium."

  Wang Xianghong also knew a little about the background of the Qiuwei River. He was also not surprised by the news and said, "It's not in Shanghai, but in Taihu, but you have to take a bus from Shanghai."

   "In this way, I will write you a letter of introduction, and then give you a call. I have an old comrade in Shanghai who happens to be in charge of transportation. He can arrange a car for you to take you there."

   He took out a leather notebook and flipped through it, wrote down his phone number in the newspaper and gave it to Wang Yi, and asked Wang Dongxi to write a letter of introduction.

Wang Yi said: "Then I'll go first. As for the movie, you can just ask Mr. Xu. Last night, Mr. Xu was with me. He understands how to assemble the machine and how to play the movie. I put the movie in my On the table, you ask Teacher Xu to get the memory."

   Wang Xianghong waved his hand: "How long are you still thinking about this? Hurry up and visit Xiaoqiu's grandfather."

   "Xiaoqiu is a girl after all. I'm afraid I'll panic when my elders are sick. If they need your help, then you don't have to rush back."

  The incident happened suddenly, Wang Yi hastily packed up and went out.

  Wang Xianghong trotted all the way to chase him out again, stuffed him a hundred yuan and handed him a box of 'dahongpao': "Our production team doesn't have anything good, so this box of tea is fine, you can bring it to her grandfather."

   "We won't take any of our souvenirs. There is no shortage of these things in sanatoriums, and others don't need them either."

  Wang Yi said: "Okay, no need for money..."

"Take it, the poor family is rich road, this is paid on the team's collective account, you can buy something, and the team will give Xiaoqiu's family a heart - how many gifts the girl gave us!" Wang Xianghong said and pushed He left, "Don't be stubborn, let's go."

  Wang Yi had to go first. In fact, he didn't need any money or anything. What he had in the space-time room was a gift.

   Zhang Youxin saw that he was anxious, so he was very loyal and sailed to take him to the county pier first.

  Wang Yi didn't know it at first, but after seeing their ship pass by several islands without docking, he asked, "Do you have any letters to deliver?"

   Zhang Youxin said: "It doesn't matter, you are more anxious. I will take you to the passenger ship in Shanghai first, and then I will turn around and come back to get off work overtime and leave work later."

  Wang Yi was moved when he heard this.

Brothers!

   He thanked Zhang Youxin, Zhang Youxin waved his hand and said, "No thanks, this is what I should do, but there is one thing that may not be right now, but since you thank me, can you let me say it?"

   "I'm dying of suffocation!"

  Wang Yi smiled and said, "What did you say you said?"

   Zhang Youxin said: "Do you remember the bet we played before? The Falklands War between England and Argentina?"

"Now that the war is heating up, I have to tell you that, according to the reliable information I have received, just a few days ago, a Type 42 guided missile destroyer of the Royal English Navy HMS Sheffield was attacked by Argentine Flying Fish anti-ship missiles. It was sunk by a missile!"

  Wang Yi looked at the excited face and gave a wry smile: "Do you still remember this? Brother Xin, I'll show you the loyalty of you who would rather work overtime today and send me to the boat first. This bet can be cancelled."

   "You think it's beautiful." Zhang Youxin smiled, "I'm going to win, you ask me to cancel the bet? I don't want to cause trouble for you, but this bet can't be voided!"

   Wang Yi was stunned.

   It was the first time I saw someone put on a pole to be a younger brother.

   Of course, if it is at the national level, he will see more. The two countries, Xiaoxiba and Dabaga, are desperately trying to be dogs for the United States of Beauty and Traitor.

   But he quickly understood.

   There is no Internet now. The masses must know the information of military battlefields thousands of miles away from the newspapers. I am afraid that the newspapers' reports of the war are somewhat biased, which led to Zhang Youxin's misjudgment of the war.

   He doesn't have the heart to tease Zhang Youxin now, so he can only say: "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

   Zhang Youxin is quite happy.

  The advantage is in me!

   Winning!

   But don't show your happiness, you have to consider the feelings of the little brother!

  There is a passenger ship in Haifu County that goes directly to Shanghai. Zhang Youxin is very familiar with this area. He went to the window of the ticketing station to help Wang Yi get a ticket and sent it directly to the ship.

  Wang Yi had no intention of admiring the sea scenery, so he traveled all the way to Shanghai.

   He wanted to make a phone call, but he searched the streets of Hudu and couldn’t find a public phone booth, so he went to the newsstand to ask the boss.

   The boss flipped through a pile of newspapers and found a copy of "China Computer News":

   "You young people are quite fashionable. You actually know about public telephone booths, but there are no public phone booths in Shanghai, nor in the capital now. Look at the news in this newspaper. It will not be put into use until September."

The fourth page of the    newspaper has the headline 'Scientific and technological personnel make great plans, public telephone booths are expected to be put into use in September'.

  The following content is: The scientists of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, who are in charge of the national science and technology development, with the spirit of 'bow their heads and be willing to be bullies', they have actively made grand plans for the development of national science and technology, paving the way and building bridges, and have been praised by the masses all over the country...

  Wang Yi swept his eyes and ten lines.

The original report said that although short-distance calls in the capital have developed to a certain extent, long-distance calls to other provinces and cities are very inconvenient. Everyone has to make calls from the telegraph building in Xidan or a large post and telecommunications office, and the lines are very busy and often blocked. , so that all the callers in the telegraph building queued up with their lunches to make calls.

   In order to solve these problems, the telecommunication scientists of the Academy of Sciences presided over the introduction of an F-1.5 million program-controlled switch from Japan, and then this switch will be the first to launch the era of program-controlled telephone switching in the capital, and vigorously develop public telephone services.

  According to expectations, public telephone booths will be put into operation in the capital in September. At that time, people will not have to go to the telegraph building or the post and telecommunications office to line up, and they will be able to make calls on the street with steel shovels.

   In short, this thing is not available in Shanghai, not in the whole of China!

  Wang Yi was helpless and put another cigarette on the kiosk owner: "Brother, I have something urgent to call. Where should I call?"

  The owner of the newsstand said slowly: "At the end of this street, if you go north, you will see a post and telecommunications office..."

   "Thank you." Wang Yi picked up her bag and thanked him to leave.

   Newsstand owner continued: "That's not allowed to go!"

   "It was full of people, and there were so few lines that you couldn't get out of it for an hour."

   "The quality of the phone calls there is also very poor. Long-distance calls are like quarrels, and the other party can't hear you if your throat is broken."

   "And there are real fights every day, and the operator has a very bad attitude, but think about it, the operator wears big headphones on his ears and a horn microphone around his neck. It's a hard day..."

  Wang Yi was convinced, and hurriedly put on another cigarette: "Brother Cha Yan, please give me some pointers."

  The owner of the newsstand smiled and said, "You young man has a good attitude, but you're just being fashionable, and you forgot our public pager? Go to the agent to call the public pager."

   Wang Yi was puzzled.

   Public pager? Pager to phone? Impossible, there are no public phone booths these days, where did you get the pager?

   Besides, he never saw anyone with a pager on his waist.

As far as he knows, the pager is short-lived in the history of China Telecom's development. It has a short existence time, so it has maintained a decent status during its existence. Anyone who has a pager is hung on the waist like a show-off, just like the waist of hunting. Like a dead rat in there.

   Looking at his blank expression, the newsstand owner was also blank: "Aren't you kidding me? You know that public phone booths don't know public pagers?"

  Wang Yi asked patiently, "What is a public paging phone?"

   The boss gave him a brief introduction. The so-called public paging telephone is the telephone in the residents' homes, but the telephone does not belong to individuals.

  Because the telephone does not belong to an individual’s family, it is called an “agent household”.

  The agent is responsible for managing the phone. If there is a call from outside, they are responsible for finding someone to come to their home to answer the phone. One call costs 4 cents, and a single call costs 3 cents during the day and 5 cents at night.

  In this way, Wang Yi finally figured out how to make a phone call. He followed the directions of the newsstand owner and went to a nearby agency. After showing the letter of introduction, he paid four cents to call Wang Xianghong.

   The call was answered by a woman's voice. Wang Yi said to look for 'Director Tao', and soon a deep voice rang out: "Hello, are you from Tianya Island? Wang Xianghong's soldier?"

  Wang Yi said: "Hello Director Tao, I'm the nephew of the branch secretary Wang Xianghong. That's it, I need a car to go to the Huadong Sanatorium in Taihu Lake. I wonder if you can give me some advice on how to get there by car."

   Director Tao said: "There is no bus to go to the Huadong Sanatorium. So, are you in a hurry? Can you go out tomorrow morning?"

   "Tomorrow morning, there is a car in the city that happens to be going to Taihu Lake to deliver supplies. This car can take you back and forth."

  Wang Yi was very anxious.

   But the arrangement was very interesting. He didn't want to ask for too much, so he thanked Director Tao with great gratitude.

Director Tao asked him to find a transport hotel at random: "After you go, you can say that you were arranged by Director Tao, Director Tao will pay the bill for you, and then tell the manager of the hotel to contact the earliest bus of Taihu Express to pick you up. "

   "It stands to reason that I have to receive Pharaoh's nephew when he comes, but I really can't go away. Please forgive me, little comrade."

   This gesture was very polite, and Wang Yi quickly said that he didn't dare.

   Director Tao didn't know exactly what the official was, but he went to a traffic hotel to repeat the original words, and the receptionist called the manager and quickly called out the manager.

   Then Wang Yi was placed in a guest room. The decoration, furniture, and home appliances were similar to the last time he stayed in the Guest House of the Supply and Marketing Company:

   A double wooden bed, a bedside table, carpeted, and a sofa and coffee table on the wall.

  The solid wood furniture is antique.

  The coffee table has a thermos, a teapot, and a large teacup.

  The back and armrests of the sofa were covered with lace white silk scarves. On the bedside table was a handkerchief embroidered with the words 'Jiaotong Hotel wishes you a safe entry and exit', and a bus was also embroidered.

  Wang Yi saw that it was still early, and decided to drop by to see Chen Gu.

  Today is Saturday, and there is no such thing as two-day holidays these days. On Saturdays, you have to go to work, and only on Sundays will you have a day off, or workers will take shifts or stipends off.

   He unlocked the bathroom and entered the time-space house, took out the pennant and the gift for Chen Gu, and then inquired about going to the foreign trade market by car.

  Wang Yi told Men Gang that he was looking for Chen Gu. The janitor was warm-hearted and had a good memory. He saw Wang Yi and asked, "Are you the little comrade from your hometown who came here last month?"

  Wang Yi asked: "Master, is your hometown from Wengzhou?"

Uncle    nodded: "Not only from Wengzhou, but also from Haifu County with you. After liberation, I went to work in Shanghai and stayed here."

  Wang Yi said happily: "Oh, we are fellow villagers, but I forgot. It seems that you have an excellent memory, you will grow stronger when you are old!"

  The uncle was coaxed happily by him and said with a smile: "It's not that I have a good memory. It's that we didn't say these things last time. Later, I asked Guzi and he told me."

   He saw Wang Yi carrying a large bag and a small bag, so he took out a bench for him to sit and rest, and then called to a staff member wearing short-sleeved shorts: "Xiao Liao, are you going to play? Are you off work today?"

   "Yes." The staff member said.

Uncle    said: "Then please go to Guzi and ask him to come, and he said that the principal of the Waidao Primary School, who he sponsored, is here."

   Xiao Liao trotted away.

   Now the uncles on the gates of state units have a high status, because many uncles are veteran cadres who have retired and want to use their waste heat to work on their posts.

   Wang Yi thanked him, the uncle asked him to wait a moment, carefully opened a drawer with the key and took out a folded handkerchief, which contained money and food stamps.

   Food stamps are national general tickets and are quite valuable.

   He handed it over to Wang Yi and said, "Comrade Principal, I learned from Gu Zikou that your island has just resumed school and needs assistance. These are the money and tickets I have prepared for you..."

   "Master, we can't, we can't." Wang Yi quickly pushed back his hand, "Master, good-hearted people from all walks of life are helping us..."

"Take it!" The uncle said solemnly, "This is a little thought from the uncle. The uncle did not give it to you alone. The uncle has donated to many schools and health centers. This is the only contribution our old comrades can make to the society. Hey!"

  Wang Yi was very moved.

   Really moved.

  Since the old man said so, he took the money and the ticket, and asked the uncle's name to leave a receipt:

  Today, Wengzhou Haifu Tianya Primary School received cultural and educational donations from Comrade Bao Independence in the form of 410 yuan and 500 kilograms of polished rice tickets (for domestic use).

  The principal of Tianya Primary School, Wang Yijing stayed.

  The old man took the receipt and put it away carefully, and then patted him on the shoulder to encourage him:

"Leading comrades delivered a speech on science education at the beginning of the year. He said, 'Modernization cannot be achieved by empty talk. You must have knowledge and talents. Without knowledge and talents, how can you get ahead?' Principal Wang, your teachers have a heavy burden. , the country needs talents to achieve modernization, and you have to train talents for the country!"

  Wang Yi nodded solemnly: "We must educate children well so that they can make their own contributions to the country's four modernizations."

   At this time, footsteps sounded outside, and Chen Guren's voice came first: "Mr. Wang, are you here?"
