Xu Xiangyang cooked six dishes and a soup at noon.
When guests come to your home, you naturally have to treat them well. Judging from the conversation between the two people, this Grandpa Lu has a lot of power.
Besides, in this chaotic world, who among them is a simple person?
At the dinner table, Xu Xiangyang watched the two men drink, then ate his meal and left.
He should avoid this situation; they haven't seen each other for so many years, they must have a lot to say.
Especially since this leader is usually very busy, it's not easy for him to find the time, so it's best not to bother him.
Inside the house, Wang Xiumin and Grandma Wang ate alone, not wanting to disturb their time together.
Seeing that there was no one left in the room, the old commander said to Wang Zhongshan, "Zhongshan, if you have any difficulties, just tell me. I was on a mission back then and didn't have time to take care of you, and as a result, you went back to the countryside. I feel very guilty."
Of course, besides the fact that Wang Zhongshan was the one who saved him from injury, there was another reason.
Wang Zhongshan tried to persuade him, but he didn't listen. Because of his stubbornness, he ruined someone's future and even caused them to become disabled.
In the end, he wanted to make amends, but the person had already passed away, and no one had even arranged any follow-up work.
Upon hearing his words, Wang Zhongshan smiled and shook his head. "Commander, although I haven't gone very far, I'm already content to have fought alongside you for so many years."
Actually, he has no regrets now. At least after returning, he enjoyed family life.
People always have to give up one thing in order to gain another.
The two men, feeling a mutual respect, chatted and drank together until it got dark.
They were separated only when the old commander's bodyguard arrived.
Before leaving, the old leader pulled Wang Zhongshan aside for a few more words before departing.
Wang Zhongshan watched the car drive away and sighed.
What is Xu Xiangyang doing at this time? He has already entered the space. The bedroom outside is not lit, and the door is locked. He guesses that no one will come to disturb him.
Most of the items in the space were sold, except for some food and household items. Everything else that couldn't be found in this era was sold.
Looking at the mountain of corn and other coarse grains, Xu Xiangyang had no immediate need for food.
He arrived at the door to the cafeteria's kitchen and then pushed it open forcefully.
It was snowing heavily outside, and pedestrians were hurrying along the road.
He went out onto the street, looked around, and then started walking along the sidewalk.
He went to a store selling electronic devices and bought a wireless eavesdropping device.
He originally kept this with Director Liu, but it has already been stolen.
Ever since Director Liu stepped down, his office has been vandalized, and the bugging devices have naturally disappeared.
After buying the eavesdropping equipment, he braved the wind and snow to buy some food and supplies, including a serving of chicken.
He had just stepped out the door when he vanished from the spot.
Xu Xiangyang was already used to being suddenly sent to the cafeteria; this wasn't the first time it had happened.
He went out and checked the time; it was exactly 7:30.
I turned on the light, grabbed a bottle of beer, and started eating the chicken I had been eating.
Xu Xiangyang looked at the opposite wall, but his thoughts drifted far away.
He needs to find a job in the next few days; he can't stay here like this forever.
If you don't work hard while you're young, you won't have any connections to start a business later, and then it will be difficult to do anything.
Xu Xiangyang didn't have any big ideas. Wouldn't it be easier to do anything in the future if he made more connections with people in government agencies?
He thought about it and decided he still needed to talk to Cao Yajun. If he could get a job, that would mean working in a government agency.
This still had to be done; after thinking about it, he felt it was feasible.
The next morning, Xu Xiangyang changed into decent clothes and went to Cao Yajun's workplace.
Actually, he didn't know which leader the person was working for, but he still had to go and find out.
At the main gate, Xu Xiangyang stood there waiting for a long time. Soon, the gatekeeper came over.
"Which unit are you from? What are you doing loitering around here? I've been watching you for ages." The security guard stared at him with an unfriendly expression.
Xu Xiangyang realized he had been presumptuous and said, "Excuse me, I'm here to see someone."
He didn't have a letter of introduction, so he could only wait at the door. But if they wanted to kick him out, there was nothing he could do.
The security guard frowned and said, "Give me your letter of introduction."
This isn't just any ordinary workplace; it's a government agency. If just anyone could wander around here, wouldn't the area in front of the gate become a vegetable market?
Xu Xiangyang shook his head. "I don't have a letter of introduction."
"No letter of introduction?" Upon hearing that there was none, the gatekeeper immediately said, "What are you doing here without one? No way, you'd better stay away from here, or I'll call the police to arrest you."
This isn't an ordinary place; you can't just come here whenever you want.
If something goes wrong, who will be responsible?
They were acting suspiciously; something was definitely wrong.
Xu Xiangyang wanted to say something more, but then he saw Cao Yajun carrying a bag walking over here.
He rushed over, "Secretary Cao!"
Cao Yajun was quite surprised to see him, but it was also somewhat expected. "Comrade Xu, what brings you here?"
Xu Xiangyang smiled and said, "I just came to ask because you mentioned you wanted to introduce me to a job."
He didn't beat around the bush; he stated his purpose directly.
After all, they are very busy people, and it's almost time for work. Just ask them quickly so as not to waste everyone's time.
Cao Yajun nodded and said, "Okay, let's talk after I get off work. Come to the supply and marketing cooperative this afternoon and I'll come find you then."
Hearing this, Xu Xiangyang didn't say anything more, nodded, and watched him go inside.
When the gatekeeper saw that Xu Xiangyang really knew someone, and that it was his secretary, he stopped making things difficult for him and went back to guard the gate.
Xu Xiangyang didn't stay long; he glanced at the gate and left.
Since they've already agreed, there's no point in him waiting here any longer; he might as well go back.
Going home wasn't very interesting, so I went to the cinema first, bought a ticket, and went to see a movie.
And you know what? Although the special effects in movies at that time weren't as good as they are now, they were all based on real people and events, and heroic deeds!
After leaving the movie theater, he went straight to the department store to see if there were any good deals.
He had just reached the door when he ran into an old acquaintance.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Shan?" he greeted with a smile.
Liu Quanshan looked rather disheveled, his clothes were filthy, and a woman in her twenties was following behind him.
Upon seeing Xu Xiangyang, he said, "Oh, it's Xiangyang. Are you here to buy something?"
Wow, this attitude is completely different from before.
Xu Xiangyang looked at him curiously. "Yeah, I came to see how Brother Shan is doing lately."
There's no need to ask; it's obvious they're in a terrible state, dressed so dirty.
He remembered that Liu Quanshan was very particular about his clothes, so how did he end up like this?
