When the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, the educated youth restaurant located at the north end of Guangming Street finally opened.
In our northern city, the opening of a restaurant is the happiest thing. Everyone who receives the invitation will feel the temptation of that delicious meal. The Educated Youth Restaurant has more than 400 seats, and with the nightclub on the third floor, it is not a small hotel. According to the will of the investor Liu Fukang, the most famous calligrapher in our city was inscribed for the store name, and many provincial and municipal leaders were invited to inscribe the inscriptions. When determining the list of invited participants, Liu Fukang spent a lot of brains, including leaders of the party, government and enterprises, including Zhao Jihong, the deputy mayor of the city in charge of foreign-funded enterprises.
Now, Liu Fukang has realized his goal of encircling the city from the countryside. He recently bought a locomotive factory with a history of more than 60 years and formed a joint venture with an American company to form Tongda Air Conditioner Co., Ltd., in which he holds 51% of the shares. . The locomotive factory is a large factory with nearly 10,000 people. Liu Fukang used almost all of his own funds and sold several companies in Liuzhuang and borrowed money from the bank to buy it. Because the locomotive factory has a glorious revolutionary tradition, many old workers participated in the anti-imperialist and anti-colonial movement. When the city was liberated, they gave their lives in order to hand over an intact factory to the hands of the people's government. the price. Now even a rural individual entrepreneur bought it, and it was psychologically unacceptable for a while. Several old workers who participated in the strike in support of the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway workers lay on their sickbeds and asked someone to write a letter to the city, asking the government not to sell the factory, let alone let the US imperialism form a joint venture.
? The old workers' letters were finally transferred to Zhao Jihong, the deputy mayor in charge of foreign-funded enterprises. Deputy Mayor Zhao shed tears when he saw the sincere letters from the old workers. He is a descendant of revolutionaries, and it is easier for him to understand the feelings of old workers. However, the locomotive factory has not been able to turn around since it eliminated steam locomotives and switched to tractors in China. It has been losing money year after year, and it is now insolvent and has become a big burden for the city. The locomotive factory has a long history, and there are more than 2,000 retired workers alone. How can the city's finances support it? There is no way to do public bidding and auctions. You can't just watch nearly 10,000 workers lose their jobs, right? Liu Fukang won the bid with the highest bid. How many retired workers can these funds support? How many waiting workers can be arranged? After the joint venture is completed, how many workers can be arranged? How much profit and tax can be created for the country? In order to do a good job in the ideological work of these old workers, Deputy Mayor Zhao personally visited them at their homes or in the hospital. When the entourage introduced that he was also a descendant of the old revolutionaries, the old workers expressed their acceptance of this reality with tears.
It can be said that Liu Fukang spent all his money for this locomotive factory. Although there is only an egg breeding base and a small western-style building left in Liuzhuang, he has no regrets. Since the day he started his business, he has never put My goal is to become a great success in Liuzhuang. He likes the city, and the city has a great temptation for him. Now that he has finally got his wish, he has added another resident to the city.
The opening ceremony of the Educated Youth Restaurant officially started at nine o'clock in the morning. The military band of the Song and Dance Troupe of the Military Area Command was invited, the ladies' fashion show team was invited, and reporters from various news agencies in the provinces and cities were invited. Of course, the balloons used to step on the sound are also indispensable. Liu Fukang bought more than a thousand balloons in one go. Last night, more than a dozen waiters almost swollen their mouths before blowing them up.
The ceremony will naturally be presided over by Gong Xiaojun, and Liu Fukang is only responsible for giving speeches.
Gong Xiaojun couldn't see how excited he was this day, except for the red flower on his chest, his whole body was lifeless. Compared with when he was preparing to build the educated youth restaurant, he was much calmer, with an expression of not being surprised. From this point of view, Gong Xiaojun has finally matured after experiencing too many emotional and career hardships.
Li Dongfang and Gong Xiaolan also came, but Min didn't come to the opening ceremony, although Liu Fukang also invited her, and Gong Xiaojun also hoped that she could come and have a look. When Deputy Mayor Zhao got off the car, he asked Gong Xiaojun who came forward to greet him, where is Min? Why didn't she come? The Educated Youth Association is also going to be in charge of the establishment. Would it be okay to put the office of the fraternity association in the educated youth restaurant in the future?
Gong Xiaojun didn't say yes or no, but Liu Fukang agreed and said that all office expenses would be borne by the educated youth restaurant.
The ceremony was carried out enthusiastically and intensively. With the sound of more than a thousand balloons, the guests walked to the table to complete the main task of their trip. Deputy Mayor Zhao didn't stay for dinner, he said he still had a foreign event waiting for him to attend. Liu Fukang also left after toasting a few glasses of wine, because the Sino-US joint venture Tongda Air Conditioning Co., Ltd. still has many things waiting for him to do. It wasn't until after four o'clock in the afternoon that the last guest left the Educated Youth Restaurant in a drunken voice. At this time, Gong Xiaojun was almost tired and lay down.
? Liu Fukang did not return to the Educated Youth Restaurant until after nine o'clock in the evening.Jun, what lyrics? "
Gong Xiaojun stood up from the sofa and sang:
There has never been a savior
明明Do not rely on the immortal emperor
? ? ? ? To create human happiness
? ? ? ? all on our own
明明
"Xiaojun, what's wrong with you?" Liu Fukang said, seeing tears welling up in Gong Xiaojun's eyes, and suddenly became nervous.
Gong Xiaojun smiled, just like Zhao Yaru laughed and cried that night.
"Mr. Liu, don't worry, I'm normal." Gong Xiaojun wiped his eyes, took the key of the manager's office from his waist, put it on the boss's desk, and said, "See you later."
Liu Fukang stepped forward to stop Gong Xiaojun who was about to go out, and said, "Xiaojun, don't leave yet."
Gong Xiaojun took back his right foot that had already stepped out of the door, and said, "What else can Mr. Liu order?"
Liu Fukang went back to the boss's desk, picked up the handbag, took out two stacks of 30,000 RMB banknotes from it, and said, "This 60,000 RMB is the labor fee for you and Min, please accept it."
Gong Xiaojun glanced at the two thick stacks of banknotes, waved his hands, and said, "President Liu, this is your fault, you underestimate me and Min too much."
Liu Fukang was stunned for a moment, and said: "Xiaojun, you and Min both need money now, don't you think it's too little? I can increase it."
Gong Xiaojun laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Liu, yes, Min and I are both poor now, but only when we are both poor and poor will we feel that money is not more important than everything."
Liu Fukang obviously didn't understand Gong Xiaojun's words, he sighed and said, "Xiaojun, you?"
Gong Xiaojun had no choice but to explain, "For example, personality." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
