Era: Retired from the army at the beginning and returned home - Chapter 284 Chapter 282: Banquet

Women, no matter how beautiful they are, are called fairies or goddesses, but those are just descriptions. The essence is still human beings, food and sex.

Dai Qianqian is good-looking, but she also has to poop, eat, sleep with Luo Cheng, and she also finds certain activities interesting. As long as Luo Cheng proposes, she will almost never refuse.

“Luo Cheng, what are you doing? You’re making me itchy.”

“Hehe~~, it’s okay. I just want to see how many moles you have on your body. The palms and soles of your hands are a little rough, and your body is really fair. There are not many moles. Let me see if there are any on your butt.”

Dai Qianxi turned over speechlessly. She had never expected to choose such a person as her husband. Call him astringent, but he is really looking for moles on her body. You say he’s not astringent, what man would search everywhere on a woman like this? I don’t know that some parts of a woman that may seem ordinary are actually very sensitive.

After being toyed with by Luo Cheng looking for moles for a long time, Dai Qianqian suddenly felt strange. She felt like an animal, having lice picked up on her body by her own kind. But he didn’t have much hair on his body, so he turned over like this. He felt that Luo Cheng was too bored and had nothing to do. Thinking that he had said before that he wanted to have at least three children, he turned over and pressed on Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng was not afraid of getting a 404 if he disagreed. He was in good health, so he spent another night without shame.

The date for the banquet has been set, three days later, and Luo Cheng plans to prepare a detailed plan in these two days. Although he is not a professional planner, in this era, there is no such thing as commercial construction planning. So even if Luo Cheng’s copywriting is very crude, it is still a new model in this era.

In order to be more intuitive, Luo Cheng also found a painting teacher to help him draw three-dimensional drawings. For the planning drawings, Luo Cheng used the system to check in several times and got a satisfactory bus shape drawing without having time to draw it.

With Mei at home and busy things in the factory, the day passed very quickly for Luo Cheng. And just two days before the banquet was to be held, the female literary soldiers Tan Meng and Zhao Qian came wearing the military green uniforms of the art troupe, carrying quilts and basins on their backs.

They don’t want to live in a guest house. It only costs a few cents a day, but they can’t even make a dollar a day. Even if two people live in one room, they are not willing to live together, and Dai Qianqian has not received the aid funds yet. Luo Cheng was willing to pay a few cents a day, but the house in the cultural troupe was a bit dilapidated and no one had been arranged to repair it. It would take many days to stay in a guest house, so it would be inconvenient to use hot water.

It’s spring, not winter. It’s okay to take a longer bath in the winter. Even if you don’t take a bath every day in the spring, you can’t skip it often. The most important thing is that Luo Cheng asked Qianxi to go to the art troupe in Changcheng to discuss the movie. According to the movie scene, the dilapidated art troupe will be used as the filming location. If it needs to be renovated, it will save repairs. . Even if I really wanted to do a war drama or something, there would be an explosion scene, but it would be blown up and rebuilt at the right time.

When building a house these days, you can build one for just a few hundred yuan. It is still a brick and tile house, not a wooden and adobe house like in the countryside. Anyway, Luo Cheng donated money for the filming of the movie in the name of the automobile factory. It is easy to change the scenes in the script. Just do it casually, the movie was shot, and the venue of the art troupe was also renovated. There is no need to spend money to repair those houses now.

Therefore, if Zhao Qian and Tan Meng stay in the guest house, it will not be a matter of one or two days. In the end, Luo Cheng temporarily arranged them into the employee building of the automobile factory. There is a kitchen stove that can boil water, which is very convenient.

The day of the banquet arrived soon. There was no free shuttle bus at the passenger terminal. If there was a shortage of buses, there might be only one shuttle bus for each county. The car broke down, and it was normal for people in the county town to have no cars in the city. So it’s not that the passenger terminal doesn’t give Luo Cheng face, it’s really difficult to handle. In the end, Luo Cheng also found that he had entered a blind spot in thinking again. What kind of shuttle bus do you need? Trucks can just bring people over. This is not the future, and people will look down upon the poor cars to pick people up. It’s very respectable to have a truck pick you up.

And when setting out, you can also just throw a firecracker in the car and set off. It is very convenient to bring anything with you. Luo Cheng naturally said hello to the factory today. He would not come to the factory in the morning because he had to entertain guests.

It may be that the kitchen has exposed the news of hosting a banquet again. After all, hosting a banquet requires preparation in advance. So yesterday, Xu Haitang came over and asked if she needed help entertaining people tomorrow. If necessary, she would take half a day off, but her salary would not be deducted.

Forget it about Xu Haitang, after all, he is still in the propaganda department of the factory and can be seen often. But Li Xiaotong no longer works in the factory due to work reasons, but works in a clinic outside the factory. She actually came over to help, pretending to pass on the imperial edict. At the outpatient clinic, she said that Luo Cheng took the initiative to call her there.

In Luo Cheng’s yard, the guests from his hometown came here first. The banquet was not big, and no cousins ​​from his parents’ generation were invited. As for uncles and aunts, as for their children, according to current rules, aunts and uncles do not bring them to eat. Only those who are married are invited to the uncle’s family, cousins, and friends. If you are not married, you are still a family with your uncle and the others. If your uncle and aunt come, you will be considered a representative.

The relatives on the mother’s side came directly, namely, Luo Cheng’s uncles and aunts, but not their daughters-in-law or husbands. It’s really hard to accommodate too many people. If we really want to set up a few more tables, it will inevitably be reported as extravagant by those who are interested.

Of course, in addition to the relatives on both sides of the family, I also called two elderly people with high seniority in the Luo family. In ancient times, there were roles such as clan leaders and elders. If the Luo family hadn’t come from the town, in the countryside, he might have become the village chief.

Luo Cheng’s grandma met Dai Qianqian for the first time. After seeing her, she held hands and fell in love with her. The old man’s view of people is very simple. The main thing is fertility, followed by appearance. I saw Zheng Xue during the Chinese New Year and I have always liked her. Not to mention her handsome appearance, she has everything she deserves. She had never seen such a beautiful girl in the town, but she still felt it was a pity that her grandson had other partners.

But now after seeing Dai Qianqian, I found that she is still a very handsome girl. She even has her own job and eats commercial food. Unlike Zheng Xue, she is pretty and doesn’t have a formal job.

In the yard, Dai Qianqian also followed Luo Cheng very enthusiastically and called her relatives. Luo Cheng introduced who he was, for example, this was uncle, and Qianxi immediately called him uncle. This was also a kind of acknowledgment, and for Luo Cheng The name of his parents was also changed as early as when he was in SH City.

Because he arrived earlier, Luo Cheng asked Xiao Yu to prepare some hard-boiled eggs and wanted to cook tea eggs, but tea is really precious these days. There are eggs to eat, peanuts and other things, which is already very good.

In the factory cafeteria, there are chickens, ducks, fish and meat. The meat is meatballs, and the duck is the specialty of the canteen chef. Stewed chicken with mushroom and bamboo shoot slices, and the fish is just ordinary fish, just braised in braised sauce. Then there is a tofu soup, fried pork slices with yuba, vegetables, and a large plate of special fried rice noodles for each table.

Rice noodles can actually be considered a vegetable or a staple food, but it depends on how you place them. If they are placed outside the table, they are not considered a vegetable and are considered a staple food. Just like rice, they are packed in wooden barrels and placed next to them. But if it is placed in the middle of the table, it is considered a dish. But Luo Cheng didn’t dare to cook too many dishes, because the news was too tight, and there were also local leaders at the banquet. Many cadres these days still have a very upright style, and eight dishes was already very good.

When ordinary people host a banquet, four dishes are not bad now. In rural areas, there are still two dishes, which are two large pots of dishes. It’s a bit like making a stew, and you can entertain whatever you want.

Luo Cheng prepared eight dishes, which were of a very high standard and the portions were ample. A few days ago, Luo Cheng and Director Zhang had dinner with Secretary Jiang. Even a leader like Secretary Jiang had a big appetite. Moreover, nowadays most dishes are served in large bowls, not flat plates.

In addition to vegetables, there is also wine, and for those who don’t drink, there are canned fruits. The canned food was sent by Director Chen from the steel rolling mill. It was considered a very high-end item these days. Usually when someone is sick and visiting someone, it would definitely be a good gift to have a canned fruit sent to him.

There are no candies in Luo Cheng’s yard, but in the private room at the factory, Luo Cheng also arranges candies, including milk candies from the system and hard candies bought by the supply and marketing cooperative. In addition, there are fresh fruits, including wild jujubes collected in the town, and oranges. Oranges are obtained by signing in, and the chance of getting them is relatively high in the mountains and forests.

Xu Haitang and Li Xiaotong’s eyes widened when they were loading candies and fruits on their plates. Thinking about how much honor they would have if they had so many good things to entertain guests when they got married. They didn’t dare to take the orange candies, so the two of them tasted a few green dates and peanuts. When guests come, they can take a little toffee and an orange in a sensible manner. As for cigarettes, you can take one or two back with you. Nowadays, if you want to loose cigarettes at a banquet, both men and women will do so, and no one will refuse to take them because they don’t know how to smoke. You don’t have to be embarrassed not to smoke it after you take it. It’s normal to take it home and smoke it, or to smoke it for family members.

In the yard, Luo Cheng stayed until after ten o’clock, then took Sissi to the factory first. There are always people who come early and need to be entertained. The people in the courtyard include the art soldiers Tan Meng and Zhao Qian. They are good friends of Sissi, not just colleagues, so they will definitely participate. At eleven o’clock, let Xiaoyu take them to the factory. Luo Cheng’s watch was held by Xiaoyu, and when the time was up, he notified his parents and asked them to tell him to leave.

After Luo Cheng and Xixi arrived at the factory, it didn’t take long before someone actually came in advance, bringing red envelopes. Luo Cheng didn’t engage in the kind of signing ceremony that specifically records who gave how many red envelopes. These days, people only do things like that when doing Pepsi business, because everyone has left and they don’t care about how much you gave them.

And later, there were even happy events, and there were people specially arranged to sign for them. It does not mean that signing for things is necessarily a trivial matter. In the past, in earlier times, business people would have someone give them a gift when they opened their business, and they would also hire a signer to do this. For example, no matter how many gifts someone comes to give, they will shout out in the form of shouts.

The host can hear who is coming without even leaving the house. He can also tell whether the host is giving you face or not, no matter how many gifts he gives.

But these days, we don’t do weddings like this. Some even invite neighbors. They give us a fifty-cent gift and bring a few people to eat. That’s not a good idea. But these days, everyone is poor, so it’s normal to give a gift and study for half a day.

The red envelope was given to Qian Qian while Luo Cheng was greeting people. This time Secretary Jiang also came, and he came quite a bit in advance. And several people came with him, all local leaders.

They came early this time. In addition to attending Luo Cheng’s wedding banquet as usual, they came to ask if Luo Cheng had any firm ideas about the industrial zone he wanted to build a few days ago. Since the last time I looked for him, I felt like there was no movement. But Secretary Jiang knew that the car factory probably had not given up on this plan, because the note he gave Luo Cheng had already been used by Luo Cheng at the Urban Planning and Construction Bureau. Not only did he acquire a large piece of land, he also asked the people there to I took him there to check it out twice.

After Luo Cheng confirmed his request, they all gave approval documents. It was easy to get the land and it was also easy to grant it to you. But if there is no irresistible external force from the local units, if the automobile factory takes the land and does not intend to build it, it is no different from teasing the local units.

Just to see Luo Cheng take the land, even though there was no movement in other aspects, Secretary Jiang still came to inquire. This industrial zone is led by an automobile factory, which is different from other factories. Although the construction funds are large, there is no chance of passing the project. If it is really successful, it can clear out the unemployed young people in Ngee Ann City, and even surrounding cities can absorb a lot of them.

Luo Cheng didn’t expect that he was preparing a plan and drawing simple drawings. He was not in a hurry. Secretary Jiang was quite concerned about it, and the people he brought this time were probably the ones Secretary Jiang had told them about.

Hey, on the day of the banquet, it looks like I have to report to them about work. Fortunately, Luo Cheng and Qian Qian had already had a wedding night, otherwise if they had sex today for a banquet, Luo Cheng would not be in the mood to talk about business.

Inviting Secretary Jiang and others to the office, Luo Cheng took out drawings and a three-year plan. If it is just construction assistance, it is actually no different from local units helping to build automobile factories. The only restriction on the assistance is that until the automobile factory has spent so much money, even if the automobile factory has a reasonable development plan and applies for funds, the local unit can refuse it for this reason.

The drawings Luo Cheng took out, including factories, office buildings, canteens, and even hospitals, were all marked with various simple block diagrams. It is different from the kind of blueprints that can be seen after construction in the sales department of later generations of communities, but even so, it is still a good planning map in this era. At least what kind of factory is to be built, the name is written on each block shape, and even the surrounding roads and other issues are marked.

Not to mention these, because the place is a bit remote, Luo Cheng also directly set up bus routes. There are many points in the city where you can take free buses to work. As for the problem of not enough buses, the automobile factory directly produces its own buses instead of requiring the passenger terminal to be responsible.

But that doesn’t mean that buses run by automobile factories don’t make money at all. There are also free pick-up and drop-off periods. If it is not during normal commuting hours, even if you have a work permit, you cannot use it. Tickets are also collected at other times. But this is a huge help to the Traffic Management Bureau, and the city’s transportation capacity is directly boosted by the automobile factory. And conductors and drivers are also positions.

An industrial zone can involve the performance of many departments. This was also the purpose of Secretary Jiang bringing people here, and when he saw the three-year plan drawn up by Luo Cheng. Secretary Jiang seemed to see a new world all of a sudden. This was not a plan. This was clearly a guarantee. It can be said that this plan directly turns aid construction into borrowing financial allocations. If there is a problem with the project, it is not the responsibility of the higher-ups, because if there is a problem, the higher-ups are also responsible for the lack of thorough consideration. With this plan, if Luo Cheng can’t do it, he will still have to bear the responsibility of the factory director.

The most important point, and the most critical point, is that Luo Cheng actually obtained a document for assisting the supply of steel rolling mills. The raw materials of steel were given a guaranteed amount. Even as long as this industrial zone is built, the steel rolling mills will depend on the situation. Report to the relevant departments to establish a steel plant in a suitable city here to ensure a stable supply of materials in the industrial zone.

Secretary Jiang’s smoking hands were shaking slightly. He had to be shocked. With the plans, drawings, and assistance documents from the steel rolling mill, even if he cashed his boss’s hands, his boss’s hands would still be shaking.

If Luo Cheng hadn’t held a banquet today, Secretary Jiang would have wanted to go to the provinces and districts with these drawings and plans now. This matter is no longer a major event in Ngee Ann, but is also a very important event in the provinces and districts.

Steel plants are generally huge in scale and are directly invested by the state. The funds used will not be asked from the local government. But the profits will not be turned over to the local government. There is no need to think too much about how many people may be employed and how much industry profits may be generated.

As long as the industrial zone is established, it will almost attract golden phoenixes. Although the steel rolling mill said it would declare it, it is not 100% sure. But whenever there’s an opportunity, it’s worth taking. What’s more, there is Luo Cheng’s three-year plan here. If Secretary Jiang were to be the secretary in the province, he would have approved it. At most, finances in other places are temporarily tight and projects are delayed, but compared with what’s happening here, it doesn’t matter.
