"Master Li, don't worry. I have communicated with them. They will arrange a dormitory for you. Although it is a little worse than here, you can still overcome it. How do you think?"
Li Qinghe was still not very happy. Although the environment of the courtyard house was not very good in his opinion, it was still pretty good in that era. Many places around did not have such conditions.
Those newly built houses are all tube-shaped buildings or brick houses. They don’t require much decoration and a coat of paint is enough.
Although the courtyard house is old, it is the prince's house after all, and Li Qinghe lives in a wing room, which can't be too bad.
As for concrete houses, there are none.
"Director, although that's what I said, but..."
"Hey, Master Li, just think of it as doing me a favor. We are all brothers in the same unit, so if they have problems, we should help them if we can."
Director Yang quickly interrupted Li Qinghe and told him not to say no.
He was in a difficult situation too. When the workload was heavy before, the machine repair shop had sent welders to help. Now that they were in trouble, how could he not help?
Moreover, people also knew that there was more than one electrician in his factory. If he refused, it would be embarrassing if other factories found out.
How can I refuse what you said?
Li Qinghe complained in his heart that since he had to go alone, he might as well take the opportunity to ask for some benefits.
"Since that's the case, the factory manager has said so much, I can't refuse, but I have a request."
Director Yang was delighted and said quickly, "Okay, you say, as long as it doesn't violate discipline, I'll agree to it."
"Well... Director, you know that the machine repair factory is indeed a bit far away. Do you think..." Li Qinghe rubbed his hands and laughed, "Can you get a bicycle ticket so that I can buy a bicycle and it will be convenient to go back and forth."
"This kid is taking the opportunity to blackmail us." Director Yang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and pointed at Li Qinghe with his finger.
"Director, what you said is true. I am doing this to better serve our brother companies. If I had a bicycle, it would be more convenient to travel back and forth. You can't just watch me running back and forth on my own two legs." Li Qinghe argued.
Yang Xiuhe, who had been watching the excitement for a while, also spoke up for his apprentice, "Yes, Director, Qinghe is helping our factory, you have to give him some reward, I think the bicycle ticket is good enough."
Director Yang looked at the master and apprentice in front of him helplessly, shook his head and said, "You two are really united in extortion. Okay, I agree. I think your reasons make sense. I will write you a note right away. You are lucky. There is only one bicycle ticket left. If it is later, even if I want to give it to you, I will not be able to get it for you."
"The factory director is so open-minded. Otherwise, you are the factory director." Li Qinghe gave a thumbs up.
"You~"
Director Yang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He took Li Qinghe to his office, wrote out a note and a letter of introduction, and handed them over together with the bicycle ticket.
"Let's go quickly, go home and pack up. You don't need to come to the factory tomorrow, just go directly to the machine repair shop."
"Hey, okay, Director."
After putting the things into his pocket, Li Qinghe walked out of the office in two or three steps, intending to say hello to Yang Xiuhe before leaving.
Just now, Yang Xiuhe did not follow, but went back to the office first, taking his toolbox with him.
Li Qinghe came to Dove City wearing a hat and scarf to cover his face. It was still a normal street with people coming and going, and it was quite lively.
He was not here to visit the Pigeon Market. It was daytime and the market was closed. He came here to sell food a few times before and got to know a small organization that had been hanging around here all year round. This time he came to exchange some money with them to buy a bicycle.
This organization was engaged in speculative trading. They bought things from Pigeon Market or the countryside and then sold them to make a profit. Because they were speculative, they were always very careful. If Li Qinghe hadn't sold a lot of grain, they would not have been found.
I came to a small courtyard hidden in a secluded alley, knocked on the door, and waited quietly.
"who?"
Soon someone asked quietly, and Li Qinghe whispered, "It's me, Xu Damao."
"Oh, it's Brother Damao."
After confirming the identity, the voice became noticeably relaxed. There was a sound of a bolt shaking, and the door opened. A young man wearing a blue cotton jacket and with a stubble on his face appeared in front of them.
"Brother Damao, why are you here in the daytime?" the young man asked puzzled.
"I'm short of money. I have several lovers to support. So I thought of you first. I have some goods in my hand. Do you want to take them?"
The young man's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, can you handle it with your physique, and have several lovers?
But he didn't show it on his face, "Of course, come in, brother."
......
An hour later, Li Qinghe, who had completed the transaction, arrived at the department store. Now there were nearly three hundred yuan lying in the space.
This department store is one of the rare tall buildings nowadays. Although it may not look very impressive in later generations, it looks very magnificent and grand in this era.
The merchandise inside is very complete, ranging from needles and thread to bicycle sewing machines.
It is said that there are more than 20,000 types of things in it, covering most of the things we can see in life.
It was not yet noon, so he was in no hurry and strolled around slowly.
Now that I have money and tickets, when I see something I like, I buy it if I have the tickets. Before I know it, I have spent more than 20 yuan.
In this era, more than 20 yuan can buy quite a lot of things, and he was already holding several bags in his hands.
Feeling it was about time, I headed straight to the bicycle counter.
