When Lin Tian finished his work and came out of the steel mill happily, he saw Sha Zhu wandering around from a distance. The two looked at each other, and Lin Tian turned and left without paying any attention to Sha Zhu.
The bicycle factory is not far from the steel rolling mill, so Lin Tian did not rush there after he came out.
It was exactly 11 o'clock in the morning when Lin Tian arrived at the bicycle factory. After registering the person he was looking for at the gate, Lin Tian went in.
The current bicycle factory is not big, and it was only established this year (actually it is the Beijing Bicycle Factory established in 1960), so the factory staff is also very limited, and the annual output is even more in short supply.
"I came here first, can the leader do it for us first?"
"Who said you were here first? I was here first, so get behind me."
"screw you!"
"Get out of my way!"
Lin Tian had just walked a few steps into the factory when he heard a noise outside a room, and it sounded like a fight was about to break out.
He took a few quick steps and turned a corner.
Lin Tian found that there were more than a dozen people gathered here. He didn't know what they were fighting for. After watching for a while, Lin Tian suddenly realized that these people were buyers from car shops and large shopping malls all over the capital, competing for quotas here.
At that time, because the production of bicycles was limited, although they were supplied according to plan, there was only a certain amount of output each month, and there were many sources, so everyone wanted to earn as much as they could first and complete the task.
Lin Tian stood at the back and watched the excitement for a while. He thought it was quite interesting. The people were making a lot of money to get the scarce materials.
However, Lin Tian’s destination is not here.
The person Zhang Wei found for Lin Tian was a deputy director of the bicycle factory named Qiu Youfu. Normally, the steel rolling mill would supply some spare parts to the bicycle factory, and the two became familiar with each other after a few interactions.
Because the steel rolling mill supplies bicycle accessories, the steel rolling mill's unplanned bicycle quota is much larger than that of other units. This can be considered an invisible benefit.
In fact, the masters in the hospital like Wang Er, Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai can make a bicycle with a little effort. The ones who are difficult to make a bicycle are the small Karamis like Jia Dongxu and Yan Jiecheng.
It was not known whether these people were influenced by Yi Zhonghai's moral stick in the past. As far as Lin Tian knew, Yi Zhonghai himself had declined the reward several times, and Liu Haizhong had also declined after comparing himself with Yi Zhonghai. As for Wang Er, it was simply because his family was not well off.
Lin Tian, who had seen enough of the excitement, stopped a worker passing by and asked, "Comrade, I'm looking for your Director Qiu. Can you tell me where his office is?"
After being stopped, the man observed Lin Tian for a while. It seemed that he was not a bad guy, so he answered, "Director Qiu? He's the one in the crowd."
The man pointed at a big bearded man who was surrounded by the buyers.
"Thank you." Lin Tian said thank you, and the man left.
"It seems that I really have to wait for a while. With all these people here, it is not convenient for me to ask Qiu Youfu to do anything." Lin Tian said silently.
So Lin Tian found a step not far from the office surrounded by these people and sat down.
Then he took out a handful of melon seeds from the space and ate them while watching these people making noise over there.
While Lin Tian was waiting here, a leader passing by asked Lin Tian what he was doing. Judging from his unfriendly expression, if Lin Tian was an employee of a bicycle factory and was so leisurely, he would definitely be criticized.
When the leader knew that Lin Tian was looking for someone, he stared at Lin Tian for a while before leaving to do his own work.
It was almost noon, and these people had not yet been assigned their tasks. Lin Tian was getting a little impatient waiting.
Lin Tian suddenly had an idea and went into the crowd and said, "Director Qiu, the director wants you to come over."
Qiu Youfu looked up and realized that he didn't know Lin Tian, but he still squeezed out of the crowd and followed Lin Tian.
Seeing that Qiu Youfu, the person in charge, had left, some people wanted to follow him, but they felt that it was not appropriate to follow him, so they could only continue to wait there unwillingly.
After the two of them turned a corner, Lin Tian stopped, smiled, and stretched out his hand, saying, "Hello, Director Qiu. I have no choice but to invite you out in this way. I am Lin Tian, a friend of Zhang Wei from the steel rolling mill."
Director Qiu should have also realized that Lin Tian was not from their factory. After all, there were only so many people in the factory, and he had already recognized most of them.
However, Qiu Youfu still shook hands with Lin Tian enthusiastically and said with a smile: "Comrade Lin Tian, hello, thank you very much, otherwise these people will make trouble for a long time. Zhang Wei and I are also old friends. He called me this morning. I will take you to handle the procedures now."
Lin Tian laughed and said, "Haha, no hurry, no hurry. It's already noon. I'll treat you to a meal."
"That won't do. You're in my territory now, so I have to treat you to a meal," said Qiu Youfu.
"Shh, let's go out first and talk about it." When Lin Tian heard Qiu Youfu's voice getting louder, he quickly made a move. After all, this place was not far from the office, and if those people heard it, Qiu Youfu would not be able to leave.
"Yes, yes, let's go out and talk about it." Qiu Youfu quickly lowered his voice and followed Lin Tian and the other man out of the bicycle factory.
When he got back from the bicycle factory, Qiu Youfu let out a long sigh and said, "I'll just call you Brother Lin. These people come to the factory every few days to make trouble. It gives me a headache."
"Okay, I'll call you Brother Qiu. Brother Zhang and I are not strangers either. We have a very good relationship." Lin Tian responded with a smile.
"Brother, please treat us to dinner today. There is a restaurant next to our factory that serves delicious fried liver and side dishes." Qiu Youfu said.
"Then I'll just supply the food and obey your command." Lin Tian nodded in agreement. He didn't argue with Qiu Youfu about who should pay for the meal. He could just pay for it himself later.
As soon as Qiu Youfu led Lin Tianyi in, they were recognized by the waiter, who welcomed them with a smile and found a seat for them. After Qiu Youfu ordered two signature dishes, the two waited for their meal.
You have to know that nowadays in restaurants you have to pay and give food coupons before you can eat. This means that Qiu Youfu is a regular customer, and it is possible that these people also know Qiu Youfu's identity, so they were not in a hurry to collect the money.
The two chatted idly, and after eating and drinking, Lin Tian took the opportunity to go to the toilet to pay the bill.
When paying the bill, Lin Tian realized that Qiu Youfu's meals were all paid for by the bicycle factory. Lin Tian then realized that this man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was also a person who ate and drank at public expense every day.
However, when leaving, after knowing that it was Lin Tian who paid the bill, Qiu Youfu still thanked him.
Originally, Lin Tian wanted to chat for a few more words, but who would have thought that as soon as the two of them went out, they were blocked by the shopping people who came to eat. Now the two of them didn't even have time to eat, and just followed Qiu Youfu until Qiu Youfu helped Lin Tian complete the formalities and picked up the car and left. The two of them were still following behind, fearing that Qiu Youfu had run away again.
