Chapter 175 212 After receiving the call, Ning Weidong immediately asked, "What's going on over there?" Zhao Ruyi said, "The train tickets have been bought. Liu Guangzhi and his family of three are coming here by train under the pretext of seeing a doctor." Ning Weidong said "hmm". We had decided before to bring Brother Liu Yun and Natasha to the capital. Now that Natasha is sick, it's a perfect opportunity to get her treated. Ning Weidong said: "Did he say when he would arrive? And where to stay..." Zhao Ruyu said, "Don't worry, I'll ask Xiaowei to do it. First, clean up a room in the back building of the company. The train ticket is for next Monday, so there's enough time. When the time comes, let Liu Guangzhi register his name in the company, and his salary will be the same as Wang Xuewen and the others..." Ning Weidong nodded secretly in his heart, he had to go out and work independently to train himself. Zhao Ruyu used to spend his days idling in the factory office, thinking about nothing every day. Now, he can make decisions on these matters without Ning Weidong having to worry about it. Ning Weidong immediately praised her a few words, which made Zhao Ruyu very happy. In fact, when Ning Weidong asked her to leave the Red Star Factory and start the Dongyi Company, she didn't say anything, but she was a little scared in her heart.
Don't be fooled by her carefree and noisy personality. That's only normal times. She's fine with anything when she has nothing to do. But creating a company is no ordinary responsibility. Fortunately, everything went well, which gave Zhao Ruyu great confidence. Then he asked, "By the way, you had to bring them here from so far away. What were you thinking?" "Let's talk about this when we get home." Ning Weidong naturally couldn't tell his plan on the phone. In a few years, switches will replace operators, and the privacy of phone calls will be greatly improved. But it is only relative. Even before Ning Weidong traveled through time, as long as someone wanted to eavesdrop, there were technical means to do so. Zhao Ruyi was just curious, and then said, "By the way, Fatty Wang made a lot of money when he came back from Fujian Province this time, and he wanted to have a meal with us." Ning Weidong remembered that Zhao Ruyu had said last time that Wang Kaixuan had returned to Fujian Province some time ago to visit his father's former comrades-in-arms and establish many connections. With the help of these connections, Wang Kaixuan was able to transfer several approval documents in less than a month. Ning Weidong couldn't help but ask with a smile how much he had earned. He really had no idea. Zhao Ruyi said, "He handled four tickets in total, and earned about 6,700 yuan in total. The share that went to the company was about 24,000 yuan." Speaking of this, one can clearly hear Zhao Ruyu's excitement. Ning Weidong was not surprised. This was just the beginning and it was just Wang Kaixuan. For ordinary people, they can earn nearly 6,000 or 7,000 yuan in less than a month. In an era when the average salary was only 40 or 50 yuan, people didn’t even dare to think about it. Before that, Wang Kaixuan went to the countryside in Ganggangyingzi, where he worked and earned work points. Although they ate from the same pot, he could hardly exchange cents for ten yuan at the end of the year. How would you feel if you earned several thousand dollars in a flash? Thinking of this, Ning Weidong asked, "By the way, what did he do after getting the money?"
This kind of unexpected wealth and sudden prosperity can best reveal a person's innermost self. Most people will reveal the worst side of their hearts. Zhao Ruyi said, "Nothing much, just eating and drinking... By the way, once asked me if there was any way to buy a house." Ning Weidong was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Wang Kaixuan to react like this. I have to say that Fatty Wang is a very reliable person. But on second thought, it doesn't seem strange. Although Wang Kaixuan is young, he has experienced many ups and downs and seen the warmth and coldness of human nature. When his father was still alive, given his family background, he must have been the leader of the kids in the compound who had the final say. In the end, his father died, his home was gone, and he had to endure several years of hardship on the edge of the Greater Khingan Range. He watched his best friend join the army, but he himself was confused about his future. These experiences are enough to temper a person. If this doesn't work, it only means that this person is hopeless. But is Wang Kaixuan a piece of scum? Obviously not. Ning Weidong said: "Okay, you can arrange it~" After hanging up the phone, Ning Weidong no longer thought about Shi Xiaonan’s troubles. …… It was around four in the afternoon and it was almost time to get off work. Ning Weidong gathered the things on the table and prepared to leave. But then someone knocked on the door. Ning Weidong glanced at the time and wondered who is so shortsighted to come here at this time. After saying "come in", the door opened and Zhao Ruyu poked her head in with a smile. Ning Weidong was stunned, then stood up and asked, "Why are you here?" Zhao Ruyu walked in with a smile: "Are you unhappy to see me?" "Happy~" Ning Weidong went forward. Zhao Ruyu closed the door with her backhand, jumped on tiptoe and hugged Ning Weidong like a koala. She felt her butt being grabbed and her face turned red. She cursed softly, "rascal". Ning Weidong chuckled, it was a pity that his level was still not high enough and there was no rest room in the office, otherwise... hehe. After a little affection, the two separated. Ning Weidong asked again: "Didn't you agree to wait for me at the company tonight? Why did you come all the way here?" Zhao Ruyu smiled and took out a key from his trouser pocket. "Did you drive here?" Ning Weidong recognized that it was the car key of 212.
After all the fuss, Zhao Ruyu came out to ride his car. Zhao Ruyu said, "It was just delivered this afternoon." Li Yuanchao had previously mentioned that he had a Bluebird sedan, but Ning Weidong thought that imported cars were too flashy and did not agree. However, Zhao Ruyu did need a car, so he got a 212 jeep. "Don't ride bikes at night, let's drive back." Zhao Ruyu was in high spirits. Ning Weidong was also very excited: "That's great, but if the car is left at the factory, what should I do tomorrow morning?" Zhao Ruyi curled her lips and said, "I'll send it to you tomorrow, okay~" Ning Weidong pushed further and said, "Then you come out from home and pick me up to go to class. What time is that? How about tonight... we can just spend the night together in the company?" Zhao Ruyu blushed, she knew what he was thinking. The Dongyi Company originally had a courtyard house with three entrances, so there wasn't much change after converting it into an office. To the west of the north room is Zhao Ruyu's office, and to the east there is a lounge, which was specifically suggested by Ning Weidong. Normally, Zhao Ruyu could take a nap when he was tired, or spend the night if he was caught off guard. As for the real purpose, Zhao Ruyu also knew it well. The two of them confirmed their relationship and took the last step, but they didn't have much chance to really be together. In this day and age, it is basically impossible to go out and get a room. If I really go, I might get reported, which would be no small matter. Although Ning Weiguo and his wife moved away, they left the house to Ning Weidong. But Zhao Ruyu hasn't married yet after all. It's okay for her to come and help clean up the house from time to time, but it would definitely not be a good idea for her to stay overnight. If it's during the day, I'd be nervous and uncomfortable. There is a place left over there. It is your own territory. You can do whatever you want. Who knew that with the recent series of events, I never had a chance to get over it. That's perfect today. Zhao Ruyi rolled his eyes at him: "You rascal, you only want to do bad things!" Ning Weidong said, "Who made my wife so beautiful? By the way, where did you park your car? Did you drive to the factory?" Zhao Ruyi said, "Don't worry, we've parked outside the factory. If we really want to drive in, and we're rushing to get off work, people will surround us and look at us like monkeys." Ning Weidong smiled, this is the advantage of being born into a noble family, he has experienced it since he was a child. Although Zhao Ruyu was very happy to have a car, she was not too proud of it. After all, she had seen it since she was a child. According to her own words, she could drive from the capital to Tianjin when she was fifteen years old. Since I got one this time, I don’t have the intention to show it off everywhere. The two stayed for a while, and when it was time to get off work, they left the building. At the factory gate, people were walking out in a crowd.
Ning Weidong didn't go to get his bicycle. He went straight out the door with Zhao Ruyu and turned right. From a distance, I saw a military green 212 jeep parked on the side of the road. The car looked about 90% new. I don’t know where Zhao Ruyu got it from. Ning Weidong didn’t ask even though she had connections. Sitting in the car, Ning Weidong looked around. All I can say is that the cars at that time were quite simple. There was hard iron everywhere, and there was no soft place except the leather seat under my butt. But then again, this was 1979, and having a car was good enough, not all that messed up configuration. Zhao Ruyu sat in the driving seat, started the car quickly, shifted gears and started off. Ning Weidong felt a slight shake, and the 212 started off quite smoothly. Before traveling through time, Ning Weidong had never ridden in Bus 212, but had only heard of this legendary car. It is said to be quite difficult to drive, especially the early versions. It seems that Zhao Ruyu was not bragging, her driving skills are quite good. There are not many cars on the road at this time, but the traffic rules are not that strict, especially when commuting to and from work, you can ride a bicycle in the middle of the road. But a car is still a car, and soon we entered the old town. The removable windows made all kinds of strange noises on the bumpy ride. It was a hot day and there was no air conditioning, so we had to rely on the fresh air while driving. When they stopped the car at the company's courtyard, Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu were both sweating. At the company, Ning Wei and his colleagues have all gone off work, leaving only one night watchman. The noise of the car startled someone inside. A skinny old man in his sixties with gray hair came out from the gatehouse. When he saw Zhao Ruyu, he hurried down the stairs and called out "Manager". Ning Weidong glanced at him. The right arm movement is a little clumsy, but not noticeable. "Uncle Zheng, ask Aunt Qin to cook two dishes and send them over. I'll eat here tonight." Zhao Ruyu ordered. She and Ning Weidong had not eaten since get off work. Uncle Zheng uttered "Oh" and couldn't help but glance at Ning Weidong. I didn’t see him the last time Ning Weidong came. Zhao Ruyi introduced: "Weidong, this is Uncle Zheng." "Uncle Zheng, this is my wife Ning Weidong." Uncle Zheng smiled and nodded at Ning Weidong, but there was scrutiny in his eyes. He immediately responded, turned around and walked north along the alley. Ning Weidong followed him into the courtyard and asked, "Who is this Mr. Zheng?" Zhao Ruyi was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise: "How did you figure that out?"
