Back to the golden age

Early the next morning, Li Daqi told Song Yuanchao that he had talked with Gu Jie, but Gu Jie wanted to see Song Yuanchao before talking.

Song Yuanchao was not surprised by this reply, after all, this is not a trivial matter, and it is normal for Gu Jie to have concerns in his heart.

The time in the morning is limited, and Song Yuanchao and Li Daqi have to go to work in the school-run factory. Song Yuanchao thought about it and wanted Li Daqi to meet Gu Jie at a nearby state-owned hotel in the evening, and have a meal together.

After get off work, Song Yuanchao and Li Daqi came to the state-run hotel by bicycle, and Gu Jie had arrived as soon as they parked the car.

"Gu Jie!"

"Brother Song, Daqi." Gu Jie smiled and waved to Song Yuanchao and the others, but Song Yuanchao noticed that his smile was a bit far-fetched, as if he had something on his mind.

Entering the restaurant, Song Yuanchao ordered food from the waiter at the counter. When paying the bill, Gu Jie was rushing to pay, but before the money was taken out, Song Yuanchao gave him a wink, and the knowing Li Daqi dragged him away and pushed him down. Inside the seat.

After paying the bill and getting the tickets, he came to his seat with two bottles of rice wine. Gu Jie said embarrassedly: "Brother Yuanchao, I should be the one who invited you..."

"Isn't it the same as my brother who invites you?" Song Yuanchao said with a smile, and put the wine in his hand on the table. Gu Jie quickly took it and used chopsticks to pry off the bottle cap, and filled Song Yuanchao's cup first.

After pouring the wine, Gu Jie was about to smoke, but Li Daqi's hand was faster than him, so he smoked it first, and then lit it.

After a while, the dishes came out, Song Yuanchao raised his glass and said with a smile, "Come on, Daqi, Gu Jie, let's have a drink first."

"cheers!"

After clinking glasses, they drank it all in one gulp, put down the glasses and Song Yuanchao greeted them to eat.

The dishes in the state-run restaurant are very good, especially for Song Yuanchao's appetite.It is very difficult to eat old-fashioned dishes like this in later generations. Now that Song Yuanchao is still common, it is natural to eat more.

Everyone didn't talk about it right away, they ate first and drank first, after drinking for three rounds, Gu Jie couldn't help taking out a cigarette, Song Yuanchao took it and lit it, and asked with a smile: "Did Daqi tell you about that?"

"You told me yesterday, how can Brother Song quit this business?" Gu Jie asked a little nervously.

"Hehe..." Song Yuanchao smiled: "Gu Jie, you are not an outsider. Although we haven't known each other for a long time, you are Daqi's good friend. Daqi and I grew up since we were young, and we are better than brothers. Dear, you are his good friend, that is, my friend."

"Thanks to your help, this business was made possible..." Speaking of which, seeing that Gu Jie was about to say something, Song Yuanchao waved his hand, motioning for him to finish first.

"It's a coincidence to say that this business is done. There just happened to be such a batch of casing sources, and you helped solve the problem of the site to do it."

"Remember what I said when I borrowed the air-raid shelter? Originally, I planned to do it for two or three months. This business is not difficult to put it bluntly. It is nothing more than the three links of raw materials, production and sales. The production is very simple, and the sales these days You have all worked out, as for the raw materials, the iron wire is easy to get, and the hardest thing is nothing more than the casing."

Speaking of this, Song Yuanchao smiled: "That's why it's not difficult for the participants. Now Zhang Bin and Wang Jianjun are planning to go it alone. It can't be stopped. If it can't be stopped, let them do it. Gu Jie, Let me tell you the truth, even if you take over this business, I’m afraid you’ll have to work on it for another month. First, the stock of bushings is limited. question."

"But Brother Song, even if Zhang Bin and the others go out to do it alone, you can take us to continue doing it!" Gu Jie said hastily.

Song Yuanchao and Li Daqi beside him looked at each other and then smiled: "Daqi and I haven't done much work these days. Our factory is very busy with work. Apart from visiting in the morning and evening, there are many things like reconciliation and so on. It’s all about you leading people to work. Since this is the case, it’s better to let you take over directly, so that the fat and water don’t flow into other people’s fields, and it’s better to give it to others, isn’t it?”

At this moment, Gu Jie's heart was full of gratitude, and he was speechless for a while.

As an educated youth returning to the city, Gu Jie’s family conditions are also not good. Like most educated youths, he has brothers and sisters, and the living conditions at home are poor. Work.

When Gu Jie was worried about this matter, Li Daqi found him. At first, he only came to him because of renting a warehouse. Gu Jie remembered the air-raid shelter managed by his father, and secretly rented the air-raid shelter to Song Yuanchao without telling his father. use.

Gu Jie was just doing a friend a favor in his heart, and didn't want to get any benefits from it, so when he brought Song Yuanchao and the others to see the air-raid shelter, when Song Yuanchao specifically asked for the rent, Gu Jie didn't ask for any money.

It was precisely because of Gu Jie's honesty that Song Yuanchao pulled him into this small group that he had the opportunity to do this business with Song Yuanchao later.

In the past month, Gu Jie has earned his father's salary for a whole year. Seeing the business getting hotter and hotter, Gu Jie is happier.

In Gu Jie's mind, Song Yuanchao is a man of great ability, and it is his luck to be able to make friends with such a person.Gu Jie has lived a more fulfilling life in this month than any time period in the previous years. Gu Jie, who has seen hope, is full of longing for a better future.

But just yesterday Li Daqi suddenly found him, saying that Song Yuanchao and him were about to quit, and asked him if he would take over the hanger business.When he heard these words, Gu Jie was taken aback, what's going on?Why did Song Yuanchao suddenly quit after doing a good job?

Li Daqi didn't hide it from him, and told Gu Jie about Zhang Bin and Wang Jianjun in private. After learning about this, Gu Jie was as angry as Li Daqi, and went to Zhang Bin and the others to argue on the spot.Later, it was Li Daqi who grabbed him and told him that Song Yuanchao had already considered this matter, and not only because of this, Song Yuanchao didn't want to do this business for a long time. Pass it to Gu Jie, and ask him to ask Gu Jie what he means.

At that time, Gu Jie's mind was in a mess, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.He told Li Daqi to let him think about it, and at the same time hoped to meet and chat with Song Yuanchao.

Li Daqi said that there is no big problem with this, but he needs to communicate with Song Yuanchao first. Li Daqi came to tell Gu Jie early this morning that Song Yuanchao agreed, and this is how the state-owned hotel is now.

"Brother Song, Daqi." Taking a deep puff of cigarette, Gu Jie said, "This business belongs to Brother Song. It doesn't matter if you and Daqi can't take care of you, Brother Song. You have jobs but I don't. I'll help you." Just keep an eye on it, and keep it the same as before, there is no need to transfer it to me directly."

"Sanmao, good brother!" Li Daqi moved aside, he misread Zhang Bin and Wang Jianjun, but Gu Jie's performance made him see the sincerity of friendship between friends again.

As he said that, Li Daqi cast his eyes on Song Yuanchao, as if he was asking what Song Yuanchao meant.

Song Yuanchao shook his head and said with a smile, "It's not appropriate. We all let go and take the lead. It's not fair to you."

"But Brother Song..."

"Listen to me first." Song Yuanchao said to Gu Jie: "After getting in touch these days, you should know what kind of person I am. Do you think Daqi and I are taking advantage of our brothers? So don't say that again. I mentioned it, just take over directly. Although I can still do it for a month or so, if the business is done well, it is still good. Gu Jie, don’t have any worries, just go ahead and do it boldly. If you have any questions, ask Daqi or ask I can do it, I won’t say much about other brothers, come on! Let’s drink!”

"Okay Sanmao, just listen to Yuanchao!" Li Daqi also said to Gu Jie with encouraging eyes.

Gu Jie thought for a while, then raised his head and looked at Song Yuanchao: "Brother Song, since I have reached this point, I will accept it, but I have one condition, please agree."

"What conditions?" Song Yuanchao asked curiously.

"If... I said yes." Gu Jie swallowed his saliva, and said with great sincerity: "Brother Song, if there is anything you can do to help your brother, feel free to speak up. I, Sanmao, am a loyal person, and I want to follow Brother Song if I have a chance." You do it!"

Song Yuanchao showed admiration, Gu Jie can say this means that he is not stupid, and his character is also trustworthy, such a friend is worth making, Song Yuanchao naturally will not refuse, and immediately agreed.
