Two generations of military wives compete for time

Chapter 176 The Story of the Evolution of “Prize”

At the beginning of the award ceremony, all advanced workers and textile experts came on stage one by one. Aunt Chen Mengwei, Professor Jiang Yuhan, Deputy Administrative Director Zhang Zhixin, Deputy Technical Director Zhang Jiyong, and Deputy Production Director Yue Huijin presented them with certificates and prizes. Han Shiyan took photos one by one to record this historic moment.

Off the field, applause and cheers rose and fell, creating an exciting atmosphere.

"This Spring Festival, the company leaders prepared pork and rice for all employees. Please ask each department and workshop to send people to the logistics department of the textile factory to collect them." Deputy Director of Administration Zhang Zhixin said into the microphone.

There was another round of cheers from the audience.

Textile expert Han Cuihua pushed a brand new motorcycle out of the gate of the textile factory. People gathered around her enviously, admiring this new thing with both envy and curiosity.

Han Cuihua's father took the motorcycle from his daughter and walked forward quickly. Han Cuihua followed behind her father and shouted, "Dad, where are you going? Aren't we going east? Why are you going west?"

Han Cuihua's father ignored his daughter's questioning and trotted to the only photo studio in Daoguan Township while pushing his motorcycle. He carefully parked the motorcycle and shouted, "Boss Hu, I've pushed the motorcycle to you. Come out and have a look."

Mr. Hu, the owner of the photo studio, went out and carefully looked at the brand new motorcycle: Jialing 50 is called the Red Rooster, equipped with an imported Honda engine, which makes a pleasant sound. It can be started by pedaling like a bicycle, a lightweight curved handlebar motorcycle, and its orange-red color is particularly eye-catching. It can be started by pedaling with the decompression handle, pedal rebound start and electronic ignition.

This model was manufactured by Chongqing Jialing Machinery Factory and became the choice of wealthy people in the early days, especially suitable for use in rural areas and mountainous areas.

Boss Hu's mistress came up to him and said in a coquettish voice, "I like this motorcycle so much. Come and pay for it." As she spoke, she mounted the motorcycle, held the handlebars with both hands, raised her head and chest, and asked the photographer from the photo studio to take a picture of her.

Boss Hu pulled Han Cuihua's father aside and discussed the price again. In the end, the deal was made with the purchase price plus 500 yuan. Han Cuihua's father happily took the money and wanted to take his daughter home. The daughter asked in confusion: "Dad, this is the motorcycle I won by winning a prize. Are you just selling it to me like this?"

"Cuihua, let me ask you, can you ride a motorcycle? Is there anyone in our family who can ride a motorcycle? Besides, doesn't riding a motorcycle consume gasoline? Doesn't gasoline cost money? While Boss Hu wants to buy it now, I have made a decisive decision to sell it to him. The money from selling the motorcycle is just the right amount for your brother's engagement gift. You don't want your brother to be a idler all his life and make our Han family extinct, do you?" Han Cuihua's father said confidently.

"Dad, I earned the money from selling the motorcycle, and it should be my dowry. You and mom didn't prepare a dowry for me. This money is my dowry. You can't do this. My boyfriend will be unhappy."

"You little girl, your parents raised you in vain. A daughter is like water spilled on the ground. Why do you want a dowry? Asking your mother to make a few quilts for you will be your dowry. Don't be unreasonable." Han Cuihua's father said angrily.

The Jialing motorcycle was surrounded by a crowd of onlookers. Young people paid money to take photos with the motorcycle. From then on, the Jialing 50 motorcycle, also known as the Red Rooster, became a profit-making prop for Mr. Hu of the photo studio. The turnover of Mr. Hu's photo studio increased rapidly, and Mr. Hu was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

Boss Hu's mistress would occasionally ride on the Jialing 50, known as the Red Rooster, and ride around the streets, showing off everywhere. The news reached Boss Hu's wife.

Boss Hu's wife argued with him angrily, and Boss Hu got so angry that he picked up his wife and threw her out of the window. His six-year-old son burst into tears and ran to his grandmother's house to complain.

Boss Hu's four brothers-in-law immediately rushed over with sticks in hand. A war was about to break out, and Boss Hu was beaten black and blue...

Textile worker Zhao Caihong and her mother pushed the sewing machine covered with a big red flower back to their home in Daoguan Village on a wheelbarrow. Zhao Caihong's mother was extremely happy as the sewing machine she had longed for finally arrived home.

Zhao Caihong's mother has loved making her own clothes since she was a child. When she saw clothes of new styles, she would take a few glances at them and then make them by hand. When she saw a tailor shop near the Daoguan Township Government, she was extremely envious. Her dream was to own a sewing machine and open a tailor shop.

Because her husband was a lazy, idle, and idle person, the family was extremely poor, and she could only dig for food in the barren land with her two children. The ideal of opening a tailor shop was just a dream.

Zhao Caihong looked at her mother's happy expression and said, "Mom, let's go to the market and ask someone to open a door facing the street for our three mud houses along the street and whitewash the inside and outside with white lime. You can open your tailor shop."

With tears in her eyes, Zhao Caihong's mother said, "My daughter understands me best." After that, the mother and daughter picked up the tools and began to clean up the debris in the three mud houses. Zhao Caihong's father stood aside, making sarcastic remarks and chattering non-stop.

Soon, the old ladies and young wives in the village who knew the news rushed over to see the sewing machine covered with big red flowers. This usually quiet and bare farmyard quickly came alive.

Zhao Caihong greeted the grandmothers, aunties, and aunts enthusiastically: "My mother wants to open a tailor shop at home. If you need new clothes in the future, just ask my mother to make them. The grandmothers, aunties, and aunts in our village have discounts on clothes."

After the commendation and award ceremony, Qian Yizhen suggested that his aunt Chen Mengwei and cousin Han Shiyan go to the talent apartment to take a rest and go to the decoration site of the resort hotel in the afternoon.

Qian Yizhen and secretary Zhang Chuanren came to the warehouse of the logistics department of the textile factory and saw the people in the logistics department were busy distributing Spring Festival benefits: pork and rice.

Since the number of people in each department is different, the supplies have to be checked and then weighed and distributed. After each department takes them back, they have to be divided and weighed again before they can be distributed to everyone. It is indeed a bit cumbersome, but everyone is happy and works hard.

Secretary Zhang Chuanren led Qian Yizhen to a separate warehouse, where 50-jin bags of rice were neatly stacked: "Mr. Qian, these rice are what you ordered for the Spring Festival visits. They are all here."

"Secretary Zhang, think of a way to pack the rice into bags of ten kilograms each, and then ask the textile factory if they have suitable leftover fabrics to make bags. It would be best if you could print the words "Dream Come True" on the bags, so that they will look more eye-catching. What do you think?"

"Mr. Qian, you really have a business mind. Why didn't I think of that? I'll do it right away."

"Secretary Zhang, please count the village committee members of the villages involved in the land occupied by Dream Come True Textile Co., Ltd., the textile factory, the resort hotel, the Huaguoshan Scenic Area, the proposed textile workers' residential area, the kindergarten, etc., and give them a 10-jin bag of rice to each of them as a token of our appreciation."

"Okay, Mr. Qian, I'll make a note of it."

"Secretary Zhang, please prepare some ten-jin bags of rice and two one-jin bottles of high-quality Kuangfu family wine, put them in Xiao Sun's business car, and accompany me to visit the township government and the county government to thank the leaders. Remember to give a copy to the leaders' secretaries as well."
