The Era of Hard Work

Not long after the meeting, a man in his forties came over, who may be worrying for the students who learn to drive. He was prematurely aging, with a large bald spot on his forehead.

In this case, a bald head is the most suitable hairstyle.

Not shaving your head probably has something to do with the social environment.

In society, although bald heads are not as good as tattoos, they are also becoming a label for certain types of people.

If you are younger, the nickname reform through labor will naturally fall on your head.

The man came over, sized Lu Dong up, and asked, Are you...

Lu Dong stepped forward and said, I am Lu Dong.

The man smiled and shook hands with Lu Dong: I'm Huang Hai, you want to learn to drive, right?

Lu Dong smelled the strong smell of smoke and said, Yes, I need a car for my business, and I want to get a notebook as soon as possible.

Have you been in contact? Will you meet? Huang Hai asked.

Lu Dong thought about it for a while, and mostly told the truth: I have driven a tractor, played very well, and have touched cars.

Not to mention that he once opened a shop to sell goods, he also drove Uncle Tie's truck in the yard of the chicken farm a while ago.

Okay! Sign up first. The person was introduced by the traffic police, Huang Hai attached great importance to it: After paying the fee, let's go to the venue and try it out.

He walked forward, turned around and asked, Have you brought any money?

Lu Dong patted the bag: I have it.

Followed into the registration office, Lu Dong trusted Bei Xiangrong, registered and paid according to the formal procedures, paid the tuition fee of 3,450 yuan, received the theoretical textbook, stuffed it into his bag and went to the training ground with Huang Hai.

From a long distance, you can see many people practicing driving. The traffic technical schools in small counties can’t expect good cars. The Jiefang 141 used for learning the B book, and the small cars for the C book are all old-fashioned Jinmen Daihatsu.

Now there are three types of vehicles corresponding to the driver's license: ABC.

Huang Hai took seven people to practice the car, and the Tianjin Dafa used was made in an unknown year, and the paint had dropped a lot.

This group of people may have practiced for a while, and the Yellow Sea is not here as usual.

Lu Dong took a closer look, there were six men and one woman, and the woman was an aunt in her forties.

Just in time, a young man came down from the car, Huang Hai signaled to Lu Dong: Come on, let's go up and try.

The two got into the van, Lu Dong sat in the driver's seat, and didn't rush to start it. Thinking about the requirements when he was learning to drive, he first buckled up the seat belt and was familiar with the equipment around the driver's seat.

I have driven Wuling Hongguang many times, but I have never touched this old car, so I must get familiar with it first, and try the feel of it.

There is nothing special about the layout of the center console. The old-fashioned steering wheel is somewhat different. When the foot touches a piece of wood, it should be the accelerator.

The person was introduced, and Huang Hai inevitably said a few more words: Driving, you must pay attention to safety first. Two of the first batch of students I taught went to see the king of hell, and they were all speeding and not wearing seat belts. Driving is not only about mastering skills , but also have a sense of security.”

Lu Dong knew that Huang Hai said this responsibly, and replied earnestly, I know.

Huang Hai said: You have driven a car before, so fire it up first.

Lu Dong stepped on the clutch to turn on the ignition, and lightly put down the handbrake. Huang Hai said beside him, Pull the clutch, slow down.

He put his foot on the co-pilot's brake.

The so-called practiced, many people are exaggerating.

Lu Dong's own coordination is good, and he has been driving for many years to purchase goods. He lightly lifts the clutch, which is extraordinarily stable.

The old car does not have steering wheel power assist, it is a bit heavy, but other things are okay.

Tianjin Dafa started, and the speed was not too fast. Huang Hai nodded secretly. After many years of coaching, this set of movements is enough to judge a novice's proficiency.

Probably no less playing with tractors, or driving secretly around the house.

And it's not like the general Yeluzi, the kind who practiced by himself, often have various problems.

Under Huang Hai's command, Lu Dong circled around the big field, and tried to reverse the car and advance the pile.

Following Huang Hai's request to stop and turn off the engine, Lu Dong gradually regained the feeling of driving.

After this lap, Huang Hai felt that the introducer was quite reliable, he was calm and not fraught, and he drove very well, like an old driver.

Go back and have a good look at the theory. Huang Hai warned: You are young and have a good memory. Try to pass it once. Are you far away? Not far away, come here to practice twice every afternoon. You have to be familiar with the exam mode. Meeting the exam doesn't mean the exam will be held.

He is very polite, and Lu Dong is also very polite: Trouble coach, I can come here every day. He took out a box of Baijiang cigarettes and stuffed them into the coach's hand: If there is something wrong with me, just tell me.

Huang Hai was also polite, put away his cigarette, and gave Lu Dong a business card: It has my pager number on it, just ask if you don't understand anything.

Lu Dong got out of the car, picked up the bag and left the venue, and rode back to the market on a motorcycle.

What Huang Hai said was quite to the point. The driving test these days is very different from his previous test. It is necessary to be familiar with the test mode.

Lu Dong also specifically asked, although some places have started to use computer-based examinations to judge, but an examination room in Quannan is located in Qingzhao, and manual judgments are still used.

As we all know, there is a lot of knowledge here.

Lu Dong didn't think about buying a driver's license in the past, and he would take the exam safely, but he would not be independent, just follow the trend.

On the way back, Bei Xiangrong called, and Lu Dong stopped to answer, mainly to ask how he was doing.

Lu Dong thanked a few more words.

Back at the market, Song Na had already set up the jewelry stall, but there was no one in the market at the moment, sitting behind the Mala Tang stall with bamboo sticks to thread vegetables.

Seeing Lu Dong come back, he asked, Where did you go?

Lu Dong put away his bag, washed his hands and sat across from her, and also picked up the bamboo stick: Go to the traffic technical school and sign up for driving lessons.

Song Na asked, Are you going to buy a truck?

Lu Dong doesn't need to play sloppy with Heidan: The store should be handed over soon. I have to prepare for the opening of the store. As far as the current situation is concerned, there is a big market for Malatang. Now the maximum daily turnover cannot exceed the limit of 2,000, because of the size of the booth. , once the store opens, there may be more customers, and a car is needed to purchase goods, so I can't bother Uncle Seven every time.

Song Na used a bamboo stick to pierce the fungus: Isn't it two shops? What is the other one doing?

Lu Dong said, I'm going to make fried chicken burgers.

Song Na has never eaten it, but she has heard of it: Like KFC?

Yes. Lu Dong said simply: An uncle in my village does deep processing of broiler chickens. It is very convenient to buy from him.

You understand this? Song Na was like most people in this era: This thing seems to be quite high-end.

Lu Dong smiled and said, I've done some research in time, and in their home countries, the normal fast food is probably similar to our Malatang and Braised Pork Biscuits.

He simply explained: Let's make an imitation version, it must be cheaper than them.

Song Na shook her head: I don't know much about this. This is not like Malatang. You have never done it before, so you have to be more cautious and steady.

Lu Dong put on the fungus nimbly: I know that the little money I have accumulated is hard earned, and I definitely can't just mess around.

It is a bit exaggerated to say that it is hard-earned money, but it is also the income of working hard from dawn to dusk.

He has been working on Malatang and Braised Pork Cakes for so long, and he has already figured out the way. He once opened a fake fried chicken burger restaurant, which is considered familiar.

The risk of opening these two businesses is relatively small.

Think about it, I think it's incredible. Song Na turned to look to the north: It's only been a while, we're going to open a store.

Lu Dong knew that Song Na was also preparing to open a store, and said, Are you sure too?

Song Na said: I'm familiar with it, and I know a lot. I'm not familiar with it.

Lu Dong suggested: Take it as a gift as well. In the university town, men and women must give gifts.

Hearing the gift, Song Na touched her chest. The brass safety buckle pendant was hanging close to her chest. She looked at Lu Dong, whose round-neck sweater was not obvious. She tilted her head. Looking from the side, she could vaguely see the red thread, and smiled. up.

What are you looking at? Lu Dong touched his neck subconsciously: Is there something dirty?

Song Na put away her smile: It's nothing, I think you're right, I've seen similar gift houses in Quannan, and the business near the school is good.

Lu Dong asked, Is the money enough?

Song Na thought for a while: I paid a down payment of 35,000 yuan, and I will save more for the loan and emergency funds, which is enough.

This time I got a bank loan, and I always felt flustered because I didn't keep some money in my hand.

Lu Dong said again: I want to open these two stores and move around. I need a lot of money. Are you interested in participating?

Tell me if you're short of money, I still have it here. Song Na had her own consideration: I'll get my store up first.

Lu Dong nodded: Alright.

…………

In Dezhou, the famous grilled chicken factory, Lu Zhenlin, Hu Chunlan and Accountant Li, accompanied by the reception staff, first went to the changing room to change their work clothes.

Although it is also a public unit, the shareholding system reform has been completed here, and the factory has introduced advanced production lines, which is full of vitality.

For the group of people specially introduced above, the receptionist was very enthusiastic and said: We have very high hygiene requirements for the production and processing workshops. Outsiders must change into special clothing, shoes and hats when entering.

Come to visit and study, of course, you must abide by the rules of the master.

A group of people changed their clothes and entered the grilled chicken production and processing workshop. Although the workshop still required a large amount of manual labor, the standardized production mode of the assembly line was much more efficient than the traditional earthen stove manual work.

Walking down the cleaning, cooking and vacuum packaging workshops, Lu Zhenlin and Hu Chunlan really saw the huge gap between small workshops and large factories.

After visiting one day, when returning to the guest house for dinner, Lu Zhenlin asked: Chunlan, do you think our stewed products can be produced with standardized industrial processes?

Apart from watching, Hu Chunlan was thinking about it today, and said, Third uncle, yes! In fact, we are also producing on an assembly line, but the whole process is manual, and the efficiency is low.

Lu Zhenlin said: Stay here for a few more days, learn more and go back.

Hu Chunlan told the truth: Our culture is not good, and we are too old. We can't remember things, and we will not be able to learn in a while.

Accountant Li answered: If you don't look at it, you don't know. We are short of people, high-end talents.

Lu Zhenlin's thick eyebrows are like swords: We are just starting out, and it is difficult to attract talents. When we grow bigger, we will definitely find people. There are so many laid-off people in public units, so let's try to spread the net.

Hu Chunlan said again: It has to be combined with our actual situation. The way of stewing is different in each place, just like Texas grilled chicken, which is different from our method.

Lu Zhenlin said: Let's take it step by step, and the steps should not be too big.
