Chapter 132 It’s hard to get a ticket
“Ah Yao, you are the same, I didn’t even ask what phone number to call.”
During dinner, my mother saw Zhang Yongfang and Darao Gong couldn't help but feel a little distressed when they looked listless, so they complained about A Yao. Although my mother has never traveled far in her life, she is old enough to understand their feelings.
Since ancient times, the Chinese people’s feeling of returning to their roots after falling leaves can only be expressed in two words: go home!
More than a thousand years later, these two words made the Chinese people unite and create a miracle that has not been seen in a thousand years: Spring Festival! With a population of over 1 billion, more than 3 billion trips were made in 40 days. This number is equivalent to moving the entire population of Africa, Europe, America, and Oceania collectively. In 2002, when the high-speed rail era had not yet arrived, the Spring Festival transportation was a difficulty that no one could necessarily overcome despite all efforts.
"You're still talking about it. It's obvious that they didn't explain it clearly." Ayao was also helpless. He was accustomed to interpreting it as a plane trip. How would he know if they didn't tell them. "You should know even if I don't tell you, I want to fly, do I need to ask you? Don't I have any money myself?" Zhang Yongfang choked angrily.
"Sister Yongfang, everyone said that you are rich, so why don't you take a plane back? Are you afraid that you won't be able to go home if you have money?" Ayao also said rudely. He felt that Zhang Yongfang Even though I have a lot of free time, I can't even afford a plane ticket. Although Kang Qirui felt that Zhang Yongfang was a little too thrifty, he didn't quite agree with Ayao's words. If you have money, you may not be able to go home. The movie "On the Road" released a few years later confirmed this point. How rich Li Chenggong is, and he is not lost in the Spring Festival travel rush.
“Actually, to be honest, you don’t have to book tickets with us. Now many schools, factories, and companies have to book tickets. However, our company does not have that. We are not that big yet. "Xingzi pressed Ayao to tell him to stop saying a few words, and then turned to Zhang Yongfang and said that the two of them have been colleagues for so long in this life, and their relationship is still very good. The main thing is that both people can do things and do their own things beautifully.
"Then Azu, please buy it for me." Zhang Yongfang looked at Azu, and Azu said helplessly: "Our company is all from Guangdong Province and we don't have this business."
Zhang Yongfang turned his target to Kang Qirui again. Kang Qirui waved his hand and said, "Well, our school can indeed help buy tickets, but it requires school employees and family members, and it has been a long holiday now." University We can help buy tickets because the holidays usually start early, before the Spring Festival travel season, so tickets are easy to buy, so the administrative department takes over the task of buying tickets collectively.
"I think you can go find a factory. Wherever there are workers, there will be collective registration and booking." Sachiko suggested again. Kang Qirui also thought it was reliable, but unexpectedly Dalogong disagreed. "I'm not a wage earner." When he said this, Zhang Yongfang became more excited, "Then I'm even more not a wage earner."
Old Dou didn't understand, and he asked with a speechless expression. , "Neither are you, neither are you, then who are you?" In his concept, one of these two people works for a taxi company, and the other works for his son's company. What are they if they are not wage earners? Dalogong replied proudly: "I am a talent introduced by Guangdong Province."
In 1989, Guangdong Province proposed to the whole country the slogan "Southeast, Northwest, Central, Get rich in Guangdong Province", overnight People from all over the country are flocking to Guangdong Province. From the initial wave of migrant workers to the current wave of talents, the number of people entering and leaving Guangdong Province has increased dramatically every year. Is Dalogong a migrant worker or a talent? This is a question.
"Bringing in talents? What kind of talents are they?" the second sister-in-law asked cheerfully. "Her second sister-in-law, I am this brother, a talent for the transportation construction of Guangdong Province." Dalogong answered seriously. It seems that their taxi company understands PUA.
"It doesn't matter if you are a wage earner or not. Don't you want to take the train home? Isn't it enough if you can buy a ticket?" Kang Qirui advised, no matter what he is, first of all Let’s buy the tickets first. "They have hard seats, and I can't bear this crime." Zhang Yongfang told the truth. She didn't dislike the word "worker", but she went to the factory to register to buy tickets collectively, and could only buy hard seats. , she went home for several hours, and she couldn't bear it. "Do you want to buy a sleeper berth?" After Kang Qirui asked, he saw Zhang Yongfang nodding matter-of-factly, with a look of helplessness on his face. This Yongfang earns a lot of money. She is not willing to spend money on plane tickets, and she is also unwilling to sit on a hard bed. It is strange that she can go home.
"Ah Yao, you have to help us. I am your sister-in-law's cousin. You can't just ignore it. There is nothing wrong with you as officials. You just need to support me." , they brought the tickets to the door." Dalogong asked Ayao. Among the many people in the Kang family, he felt that only Ayao, the section chief, could help him buy the tickets.
"Don't think of me as corrupt, okay?" Ayao knocked on the table with his chopsticks to signal Dalogong not to talk nonsense. Zhang Yongfang saw that Ah Yao was angry, and immediately said to him: "A Yao, you are the most honest. If honest officials ask for a ticket, they will make it easier. Xingzi, just help me, you don't want me to not be able to come back." Home?"
Xingzi couldn't refuse, so he looked at Ayao. Ayao sighed, knowing that he couldn't get rid of this matter, so he had to say: "Okay, I'll help. Come and eat." Zhang Yongfang and Dalogong immediately stood up to thank Ayao before sitting down to eat.
After dinner, Ayao started to make calls on the landline in the living room. He called many friends and asked for help, but he couldn't get a train ticket. As the saying goes, it is better to be in charge than to be an official now. As the section chief of the trading port, he may not be as good at buying tickets as the stock clerks at the railway port. After making more than a dozen calls, he said helplessly: "I'll go back to the work tomorrow and have a look with my colleagues, but don't have too high hopes."
Hearing what A Yao said, Zhang Yongfang and Dalogong looked at each other without saying anything. They also knew that A Yao had tried his best, so they had no choice but to nod and go back to the room to sleep. Their mother had prepared the guest room for them, and now Kang The home is so big that no matter how many people there are, it can fit in it. Brother Niu came to Kang's house early the next morning and said goodbye to Xianglan.
"Brother Niu, you are a big baggage, are you leaving soon?" When Brother Niu came, Kang Qirui happened to be reading the morning newspaper in the living room, so he asked. "Well, I'm on the plane at two o'clock. I just bought a roast goose. This roast goose is delicious. Would you like a bite?" Brother Niu took out a roast goose leg from the packing box he was carrying and handed it to Kang. Qi Rui.
Kang Qirui shook his head and said: "If you don't want to eat it, don't eat it. The roast goose is too greasy this morning." Seeing that Kang Qirui refused to eat, Brother Niu started to eat it himself. Xianglan said: "Then I'm leaving. Xianglan, you have to take care. Remember, you are pregnant. When spring comes next year, I will come back. Goodbye!"
< br>Brother Niu waved his sleeves and left after saying goodbye to everyone. Dalogong looked envious and said, "It's better to be rich. You can come and go as soon as you say it. Hey, I said, Zhang Yongfang "Didn't you make a lot of money?" He sighed and asked Zhang Yongfang doubtfully.
“I want to go home, but I have to see if it’s worth it. The plane ticket costs 4,200 yuan, so I won’t go back. I’ll be here in Guangfu from New Year’s Eve I can work hard until the eighth day of the lunar month, but I can't spend that much money." It's not that Zhang Yongfang doesn't have money, her annual dividend from the clothing company is more than 100,000 yuan, not counting her salary and bonus. But her character is very similar to that of Lao Dou. They are both calculating people. Everything has value. If it exceeds it, it will not work.
Going home was not worth 4,200 in her eyes, so she would rather not go back than take a plane. And Brother Niu is the kind of person who does everything he wants. He doesn't care about money, as long as he is happy. No, that night when the Kang family was watching TV together after dinner, Brother Niu happily walked into the Kang family and shouted: "I'm back again."
