Return To 1977 Chapter 391: New job
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
At the beginning of December 1978, it was another good day to count the fruits of victory and enjoy the joy of harvest.
Last month, Hong Yanwu’s movie ticket sales exceeded the target, making a total of 66,000 yuan in net profit.
His subordinates who ate in front of the cinema successfully doubled their income, which was equivalent to another double-pay month.
"Tangxin'er" and "Cricker Plum", this time because of the benefit of "Two Heads", their profits surged twice as much as usual, and they each divided 6,000 yuan.
This not only made "Tang Xin'er" happy all day long, but also made "Cier Mei" smile so hard that she narrowed her eyes and even spoke to the "little landowner" with a strong voice.
This can completely illustrate a problem. Money is not only the courage of heroes, it is also the courage of women.
The most commendable thing is "Er Head". According to reports, this guy got a bonus of 2,000 yuan.
But he is not alone in this money. Even without hesitation, he shared five hundred points with "Big Eyed Lamp", "Stretch Out" and "Roller". Including "salary", each of them received more than 800.
According to his approach, it can be said that these four brothers are already one step ahead in realizing happy communism.
Although Hong Yanwu felt that this was a bit unrealistic and thought it would be difficult to maintain it like this as time went by, he still appreciated it in his heart.
Because this action shows your character. Since such a person is working for him, can he still feel uneasy?
Of course, Hong Yanwu doesn't have to worry too much about handling money now. It's still the same between Wangfujing and Liulichang, buying famous calligraphy and paintings, and the three treasures of seal stones.
And because he was no longer in a hurry, he slowly picked it up and said hello to everyone he knew well in each store.
He said that as long as there were rare large pieces of Tianhuang and chicken blood, or paintings by Qi Baishi, Xu Beihong, Zhang Daqian, Fu Baoshi, Li Keran, and Huang Binhong, they would definitely be kept for him.
To be honest, he felt quite satisfied at this time. I fantasize about the rest of my life, or I might as well open a museum of stone seals, calligraphy and painting for fun.
At that time, the prices of these things will rise. All media must be vying to report on it.
He must also be known as a literary master. I also have to go to the TV station to do a few programs and listen to the hosts calling me "teacher".
Teacher Ma makes antiques, so what does that mean? Can you compare with him?
The blue and white flowers of the official kiln are only counted in tens of millions. At most it's a tie with the Tian Huang in his hand. But these calligraphy and paintings are calculated in hundreds of millions. We are as good as his ten official kilns!
Thinking about the wonderful things about being in the limelight, I felt extremely happy. Fortunately, Hong Yanwu is a teacher and wants to educate a "sugar heart".
"Sister, learn from me. You can also buy some calligraphy, paintings and seal stones. You know how to keep money foolishly. That money is nothing, it will only become more and more valuable. Do you understand that rare things are valuable? Ma Do you understand Slow’s Hierarchy of Needs theory? Buying these things is like the stamps in our hands, which can continue to increase. At the same time, it also reveals taste and cultivates personal cultivation..."
Tang Xin'er, who accompanied him to the store, nodded humbly. "Well, that makes sense..."
But then, he stretched out his delicate hand and took away the two scrolls that Hong Yanwu had just received for a thousand dollars.
That is a picture of a lady by Qi Baishi and a picture of a tiger by Xu Beihong.
As we all know, Qi Baishi's shrimps and Xu Beihong's horses are the most famous. But from a certain point of view, the reason for this is not only that they draw these two things realistically, but also because they draw the most of these two things.
In fact, the price of subjects like this, which the painter rarely attempts, is often higher.
So Hong Yanwu's smiling look immediately turned into dumbfounded.
"Alas, alas, what are you doing?"
"Tang Xin'er" has his eyes wide open, looking completely harmless to humans and animals.
"What are you doing? I listen to you. I'll take two paintings and hang them at home to smoke them."
"Hong Yanwu" immediately choked.
"Xun? You are just a mosquito. I am afraid that you will suffer a loss, so I asked you not to keep any money..."
Unexpectedly, "Tang Xin'er" took the blame.
"What's yours and mine? What's yours is not mine? We will not be a family in the future? What do you want me to say, from now on you will continue to buy calligraphy and paintings, and I will keep the money..."
"I, I...yes, you are right..."
"I also want two stones. What's the point of just keeping them? Let's carve a chapter for each of us. It's easy to have a chapter. You don't have to write your name. Just cover it with one..."
"Okay, okay, you just want to be happy, no matter what..."
Hong Yanwu really suppressed his heartache and had to keep smiling. But who made him so poor?
This is called retribution, and there is still someone who can cure him.
But having said that, this kind of pain is actually quite satisfying.
What is a rich person? That means you have to treat good things improperly. We don't care at all whether it's tens of millions or hundreds of millions, just waste it.
Master, how about beating me up~
Also at the beginning of this month, the jobs of Hong Yanwuhe and Chen Liquan were finally settled, and they had a place to work again.
To put it bluntly, Director Li from the street never worked so hard for his own brother Zhang Luo.
For the sake of the TV, I followed their request and took the trouble to make countless phone calls. Finally, I found a more suitable reason for them at the front door. .
This job is really good. Even though he is a temporary worker, he still earns eighteen yuan a month. But I work indoors every day, from 6 am to 12 noon, six hours.
You may say you are a manual worker, but you are not sweating all over your neck. You still have one day off every week, which is much better than staying at the food station where it rains and winds every day.
But the only drawback of this job is that it smells a bit picky. They have to see Tian'er dealing with pig intestines.
Where? What kind of job is this?
Hi, it’s the “Tianxingju” restaurant in Xianyukou, a time-honored restaurant in Beijing.
Most people in Beijing have eaten fried liver and know that this is an authentic Beijing-style snack. But older Beijing residents also know more stories about "fried liver".
For example, I know that this thing actually evolved from "Baishui pig offal".
We know that the founder of "Fried Liver" originally started his business in "Huixianju" in the first year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1862).
I know that it was the great journalist Yang Manqing who came up with the idea to do public relations, which made the "Huixianju" fried liver popular.
It is also known that in the 22nd year of the Republic of China (1933), when the third generation successor of "Huixianju" was having internal strife, the "Tianxingju" diagonally opposite it took the place. In the end, not only was "Huixianju" defeated, but "Huixianju" was also annexed in 1952.
From now on, Tianxingju is the most authentic source of "fried liver" in the capital.
This "first" title is not for nothing. Even in these years, fried liver costs 10 cents a bowl in other places, but "Tianxingju" can sell it for 20 cents a bowl thanks to its second-to-none taste and production techniques.
Even though it is so expensive, it is still overcrowded. The seven pots of "fried liver" cooked every day, each pot can sell 130 bowls, and it will be sold out before nine o'clock, and you can't eat it even if you are late. This is the gap!
Some people may be surprised when it comes to this. They would ask, "How can such a great time-honored brand have the positions of Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan? It would be a great honor for Director Li to allow these two people who have worked hard to come to work!"
Hey, this matter needs to be discussed separately.
What?
On the one hand, the reputation of "Tianxingju" is true. But its fame is only due to this bowl of "fried liver".
People in the capital eat this as breakfast, with steamed buns or pancakes, or grilled over fire, but not as a main meal. So after talking about it, this "Tianxingju" is essentially a bigger breakfast shop.
The store is 40 to 50 square meters, with about a dozen tables. It is indeed larger than an ordinary small restaurant, but it is different from time-honored brands such as "Jingcheng Roast Duck Restaurant" (Judequan) and "Qilu Restaurant" (Bianbiafang). In comparison, it pales in comparison.
Speaking of the actual business conditions, apart from six to nine in the morning, it is busy for less than three hours, and there are very few customers during the rest of the time.
At noon, we also serve simple lunches such as stir-fried vegetables, fried pancakes, and egg drop soup, to cope with the few out-of-town tourists who visit Qianmen just to fill their bellies.
As for night, don’t even think about it, there won’t be any ghosts. So it was closed. After two o'clock in the afternoon, it was closed directly on the board.
On the other hand, "Tianxingju" is indeed in urgent need of manpower. And this has to do with the special historical reasons at that time.
It turns out that in order to avoid going to the mountains and countryside as much as possible, most of the young people recruited by "Tianxingju" since the "movement" period were arranged through the back door.
Just like these young people, no matter what kind of family they come from, they all have one thing in common: they are not good at what they do, but they are happy when they eat. They all have a disdain for the service industry from the bottom of their hearts, and feel quite aggrieved that they are only swimming in shallow water and using their talents for underutilized purposes.
From the first day on the job, they never worked seriously. What he is best at is being late, leaving early, quarreling, talking nonsense, or doing the "loyalty dance" or "knocking on three families" and so on.
It’s good to be honest about your work and not do any harm.
In the words of chef Si Yongxiang, as long as these guys don't bring crickets to work, they won't fall into the liver-frying pot again. Don't smoke when wrapping the buns, and wrap the cigarette ashes in the buns, and he will be thankful.
It's better to just let them idle than to cause trouble.
So in fact, "Tianxingju" has always relied on the consciousness of veteran employees to maintain its daily operations. Especially things in the kitchen are related to the century-old reputation of the store. After trying it a few times, no one dared to let the young people interfere.
Of course, the young people themselves enjoy their leisure time. During the busiest three hours every day, they collect dirty dishes and wipe tables, and spend the rest of the time smoking and playing cards. No one wants to learn some skills from the master.
This situation has continued to this day, and as the old masters retire one by one, the number of young people continues to increase. Of course, there are fewer and fewer people working, and more and more people are eating and sleeping in the dark.
Over time, if all the accumulated conflicts reach a certain level, they will explode.
Now is exactly this moment, because two old employees in the intestine cleaning workshop have just retired, and the task of cleaning and processing hundreds of pounds of pig intestines every day has no one to do it, which has become a big headache.
Yes, there are still some old workers who can do it, but they are really busy. As for the young people, they are not willing to touch it at all.
So this made the plump, Maitreya-like manager Sha Liangbao very worried. Without the prepared pig intestines, how can we produce pots of fried liver?
If the people in the capital cannot eat this bite, they will be called Qu Cursing Mother. If you really write a letter to the catering company, you will definitely be criticized by your superiors. The key is that after being criticized, you still have to solve the problem. Wouldn't that be a huge loss?
What a coincidence. At this special time when the problem was most urgently needed to be solved, a phone call entrusted by Director Li came to Manager Sha's desk.
Manager Sha, who was sweating profusely, his eyes lit up as soon as he answered the phone.
There are two young people who can work who want to come here as temporary workers? Isn't this just because if you want to sleep, someone will hand you a pillow?
Have you ever been forced to work? That's nothing, since the two boys didn't sneak in anyway.
Having said that, if he wasn't such a flawed person, he wouldn't be willing to do this kind of work without a formal establishment, right?
Okay, this is it, it's done.
