"No, why are you always thinking about the bicycle ticket?" Director Yang said with a headache.
Chen Jun already has a bicycle. It is very good to have one at home these days.
"I want to buy a women's bicycle!" Chen Jun grinned. "I'm not asking the factory for a bicycle. Can't I just get a ticket?"
"Look at how tired I've been lately. I've been cooking so many banquets every day that my arms are so swollen I can't even lift them. If I don't have any merit, at least I should get some..."
"Hey, hey, hey, stop it!"
Director Yang was worried that if Chen Jun continued talking, it would be more than just a bicycle ticket.
Indeed, the canteen has been quite busy recently, especially with the year-end reception. Chen Jun has to prepare every dish, and the workload is very heavy, so he has to work overtime every day.
"The factory did distribute a few bicycle tickets recently. I'll bring them to you later."
Now every bicycle ticket is extremely precious. There are countless people queuing up in the factory waiting for it, but there are only so many tickets every year, and they are never enough. Ultimately, the current production capacity cannot keep up.
Chen Jun nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and then started chatting with Director Yang.
At around 5:30, Chen Jun followed Director Yang and set off. To his surprise, Xu Damao had been waiting there for a long time. Judging from the projection equipment on the ground, he must be going there to show a movie.
"Hey, I knew you would be indispensable!" Xu Damao patted Chen Jun's shoulder happily.
Ever since Hou Guifang became pregnant, Xu Damao's mental state has been extremely good. He walks with a breeze and even doesn't take the initiative to lift his wheelchair when he meets Jia Dongxu.
Jia Dongxu once thought that Xu Damao was planning a big move and was always on guard.
A few people got in a car and drove out of the steel mill. In about twenty minutes, they arrived at Mr. Liu's yard.
Chen Jun slapped Xu Damao in the face with his backhand: "Wake up, get out of the car and move your things."
"ah?"
Xu Damao, who was already half asleep, rubbed his eyes and said, "We're here so soon! Cars are better, much more comfortable than bicycles. When I have more money, I'll buy a car too."
Wow!
Chen Jun glanced at Xu Damao in surprise: "Do you have a ticket?"
"Uh...no." Xu Damao shook his head.
Not to mention what kind of tickets are needed to buy a car, Xu Damao doesn't even know where to buy a car.
After getting off the car, Chen Jun found that Mr. Liu's wife was standing in the yard, so he hurried to meet her.
"Madam, it's so cold, why are you standing in the yard?"
Chen Jun didn't know how to address Mr. Liu's wife, so he just called her Madam.
Mrs. Liu smiled kindly, took Chen Jun's hand and said, "Master Chen, you haven't been to our house for a long time. Why do I see that you seem to have lost weight?"
"Is the cafeteria too busy lately?"
Forehead?
Mrs. Liu's attitude was much more enthusiastic than the previous times, which made Chen Jun a little uncomfortable for a while.
Director Yang seemed to see Chen Jun's confusion, so he explained, "Mr. Liu was hospitalized last time, and thanks to the medicinal food you prepared, he recovered early. My wife has been looking for a chance to thank you, but unfortunately you were too busy and never had the chance."
oh......
It turned out to be because of the medicinal food.
"You are so kind, ma'am."
The few of them were walking and chatting, completely ignoring Xu Damao behind them. Fortunately, the driver came to help, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to carry so many things by himself.
After entering the house, Chen Jun found that Mr. Liu was playing chess with a white-haired old man. The old man looked familiar and he should have met him before. In addition to the two of them, there were seven or eight younger people.
Seeing Chen Jun coming, Mr. Liu waved to him and said, "Chen Jun is here. Come and help me with the chess. I'm not in good shape today and I'm no match for him."
Chen Jun responded and pulled over a bench to sit down.
Seeing how familiar the two were with each other, the younger generations couldn't help but look at Chen Jun a few more times.
"Hahahaha, Old Liu said you would come to our house to cook today, so I came here without having lunch. Master Chen, let's have a few drinks in the evening." The old man didn't mind at all that Old Liu asked for external help. Instead, he chatted with Chen Jun with a smile.
really!
I still can’t get rid of the job of being a cook today.
Director Yang’s words really can’t be trusted. Fortunately, I asked him for a bicycle ticket. This trip is a huge profit. I will take Lin Yao to buy a bicycle tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Chen Jun quickly finished the game of chess, got up and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook.
It's already past six o'clock. If we hurry, this meal might last until ten or eleven o'clock.
As soon as he reached the door, Chen Jun saw Xu Damao being stopped at the door by two middle-aged men.
The two middle-aged men were wearing grey Mao suits, had short hair and sharp eyes. They were obviously the guards of the courtyard.
He noticed the two people as soon as he entered the house, but because it was Mrs. Liu who brought him in, he was not stopped.
From this perspective, the white-haired old man who was playing chess just now is of extraordinary status.
"Hey, why are you stopping me? I'm the projectionist. The machine has been adjusted. You leaders can go watch the movie." Xu Damao whimpered.
"Xu Damao, just tell these two comrades, don't worry about anything else. Go stay in the room and start the movie after the leaders arrive." After Chen Jun finished speaking, he pulled Xu Damao away.
Xu Damao was still a little dissatisfied and shouted that the two men were just counting wood and would not listen to human words.
"Alright, go stay inside and be quiet. You should behave yourself when you come to the leader's house to watch a movie. Don't wander around and don't ask any random questions."
Xu Damao curled his lips, then whispered to Chen Jun, "Come over later. Today's show is an internal film, just uploaded!"
The internal film he mentioned is actually a new movie that has just been completed and has not yet started promotion. It is still very attractive to ordinary people.
Because there are relatively few movies available and the production cycle is relatively long, cinemas play them in a loop, and tickets are not easy to buy every time a new movie is released.
Xu Damao did not forget Chen Jun about the good thing that he could watch a new movie without spending any money.
Chen Jun waved his hand and refused: "No, I still have to go to the kitchen to work."
After saying that, Chen Jun went straight to the kitchen. When he arrived, he found that the ingredients had basically been processed. The vegetables were washed and cut, and the meat was ready, which greatly reduced his workload.
Heat the oil in a pan and start working!
Before Xu Damao finished his movie, Chen Jun had already started serving the food.
Hearing that it was time to eat, Mr. Liu and the others simply asked Xu Damao to pause the machine first and come back to check after dinner.
Xu Damao was completely dumbfounded. It was the first time that a movie was paused in the middle of watching. How long would this take?
But this is not a rural commune, and his identity as a projectionist does not give him much say. His leader told him to wait, so he just waited.
After touching his rumbling stomach, Xu Damao strolled to the kitchen to find Chen Jun.
