Chapter 43: Fatty Luo's troubles

Since that day, Chen Ziyue has become a different person, and has plunged into the sea of ​​books and started studying hard, vowing to get into college. The Chen family thought what was wrong with this girl. For this reason, Chen Zhen also found Lu Jiadong and asked him what was going on.

Lu Jiadong didn't know what was going on, so he could only ask three questions without knowing it. His head was shaking like a rattle. Chen Zhen couldn't ask any reason at first glance, so he showed the style of a superior leader adding his father-in-law and ordered Lu Jiadong to see Chen Ziyue more and care about his precious daughter.

Since Lu Jiadong and Chen Ziyue have already made clear their relationship, even if Chen Zhen does not ask, Lu Jiadong will go to see Chen Ziyue every now and then. However, Lu Jiadong has been too busy recently and can't take time. The production task of a thousand guns is nothing to a large factory, but it is very difficult for a small factory like Wanshan Factory that only has gun maintenance experience and has no experience in large-scale manufacturing. What's more, it is produced newly developed guns, and there is not even a mature technical template, so it is even more difficult!

Therefore, as the only middle-level cadre in the factory during this period, Lu Jiadong, who is the only cross-departmental middle-level cadre in the factory, runs both at the military workshop and the technical department. The workshop improves the large-scale production process, and the technical department needs to refine the production process. The worker is trained in the workshop, and the process drawings of the technical department are also problematic. In this way, he is so busy that his feet are not sticky all day long that he has no time to see Chen Ziyue.

In this way, after nearly half a month of hard work, Lu Jiadong led the gun development team to complete more than a dozen production and processing technical innovations and personnel training work, including simplification of the barrel cold forging machine process, transformation of precision machine tool processing molds, transformation of heat treatment process, guide to barrel chrome plating technology, and training of military workers' staff skills, so that Wanshan Factory can complete the first batch-produced new firearm, the military code-named Type 78 assault rifle.

As the mass production of the Type 78 assault rifle in Wanshan Factory was on track, the factory leadership also quietly changed. Thanks to the development and production of Type 78 firearms, the factory director Zheng Yongbo was transferred from Wanshan Factory to serve as the director of an ammunition factory in the province. Because the factory is large in scale and is a department-level unit like the Red Star Factory, Zheng Yongbo's transfer is a high-end.

Zheng Yongbo was transferred away, and the vacant position of factory director was not transferred from foreign factories as usual, but directly promoted Chen Zhen to the factory director of Wanshan Factory. Lu Jiadong, the biggest contributor to the development of firearms, was promoted to workshop director. The "worker-based work" who was in the forefront of the title was also officially removed, becoming a veritable department-level cadre, and is also the youngest and fastest-promoted middle-level leader of Wanshan Factory.

You should know that just 10 months ago, Lu Jiadong was an ordinary worker in Wanshan Factory. In less than a year, he became a middle-level leader. This was unique since the construction of Wanshan Factory. However, even though Lu Jiadong was young and had little experience, his promotion was not opposed by the people in the factory. Instead, he was convinced. Some people even felt that his superiors were a little low in Lu Jiadong's promotion. After all, Lu Jiadong was definitely admired by anyone in the field of military technology.

In addition to promotion, as the technical core of the Type 78 firearm development, Lu Jiadong also received a bonus of 3,000 yuan. Of course, his reputation is still scientific research funds. With the previous bonus of 1,000 yuan and the wealth he saved in the aid team in B, Lu Jiadong's assets have exceeded 5,000 mark. This amount can be called a rich man in Wanshan Factory.

Of course, except for Fatty Luo, who is also a roommate and brother, who knows, others don’t know. At this time, Fatty Luo is hesitating whether to ask the rich brother to borrow money.

It turned out that just two months ago, Fatty Luo suddenly received a letter from his home, which was written to him by his sister, saying that his father was seriously ill and was hospitalized and urgently needed money. Fatty Luo knew the situation at home. Because of the high family composition, their family has been sent to the countryside since the 1960s. Originally, Fatty Luo still needed to pay for his life at home, but now his father's serious illness is like adding insult to injury.

So after receiving the letter, Fatty Luo immediately ran to the post office to send two hundred yuan to his house without saying a word. However, a few days later, the letter from the family came again, saying that his father's illness had not improved and he needed to continue treatment. In this way, Fatty Luo sent money to his family twice in a row within two months, until he spent all his wife's money he had saved up, and his father's illness was not cured. Today, the family sent another letter, which was still the content of his father's serious illness and the family urgently needed money!

After seeing this letter, Fatty Luo couldn't help but feel worried. His father was seriously ill and needed money in urgent need of money, but now he didn't even have a penny on him. Even if the factory pays his salary in a few days, it would only be 40 yuan. It would be useless for his father's high medical expenses. What should he do?

After thinking about it, Fatty Luo thought of Lu Jiadong, but then he rejected this idea. Lu Jiadong had already helped him a lot, so why did he have the nerve to ask him to borrow money? Besides, as an orphan, Lu Jiadong always had to start a family and start a business, and there were many places to spend money, so why did he have the nerve to reach out to him?

But if you don’t have money, your father’s illness will not be cured, and you may even lose him forever. Then you may regret it even more. What should I do? Fatty Luo is trapped in deep conflict.

"Fatty, why are you dazed there?" Just as Fatty Luo was thinking about how to solve it, Lu Jiadong pushed open the dormitory door, threw his handbag on the bed, and then sat opposite him:

"What are you thinking? Why do you always see something wrong with you recently? Are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Fatty Luo heard Lu Jiadong's question and waved his hand quickly. However, Fat Luo was born not a good actor. Although he said it was okay, his sad face had long been betrayed him.

In fact, Lu Jiadong had noticed something wrong with Fatty Luo, but he was busy over the past two months about the Type 78 assault rifle, so he didn't have time to ask Fatty Luo. He finally came back early today and originally wanted to make up for his sleep, but he didn't expect to see Fatty Luo in a daze as soon as he entered the dormitory. Now Fatty Luo looks like this, how can he not make Lu Jiadong suspicious?

At this moment, the letter in Fatty Luo's hand was seen by Lu Jiadong: "Fatty, what is in his hand?"

"It's nothing! You're tired, so go to bed early. I'll go out for a while and get some breath!" Fatty Luo said, folding the letter, but before he could finish it, Lu Jiadong suddenly turned to the door:

"Secretary Gao, what wind has blown you?"

"Secretary Gao? Where?"

"Here is here!" When Fatty Luo turned his head to the door, he was stunned for a moment, Lu Jiadong quickly snatched the letter from him.

"Jiadong, give it to me..."

"I am so unscrupulous. Is it better with any girl?" Fatty Luo wanted to go forward and grab it, but Lu Jiadong didn't give him a chance at all. He flashed his body to the side, opened the letter, and just glanced at Fat Luo with his eyes:

"Why don't you tell me about uncle's illness?"

"Are you busy lately, so..."

"No matter how busy you are, you have to tell me!" Lu Jiadong interrupted him without waiting for Fatty Luo to finish his words, then stood upside down and looked at Fatty Luo with a gloomy face:

"Did you treat me as a brother? Uncle is so sick, why don't you tell me?"

"Jiadong, I..." Although Lu Jiadong looked angry and his tone was very bad, Fatty Luo felt extremely warm in his heart, especially the sentence "Did you treat me as a brother?" made Fatty Luo unable to suppress his excited expression, and his little eyes were already filled with tears.

Looking at Fatty Luo who was crying in his eyes, Lu Jiadong also calmed down. Looking at the letter in his hand, thinking about Fatty Luo's abnormal behavior these days, Lu Jiadong couldn't help but stand up and pat Fatty Luo on the shoulder:

"Fatty, how much does it cost to uncle?"

"Jiadong, keep your money first, I'll find a way..."

But before Fat Luo finished speaking, Lu Jiadong turned around, took out a paper bag from the box, and then poured more than a dozen bundles of Datuanjie on the bed in a flash:

"There are five thousand yuan here. You can use it first. If it is not enough, I will find a way!"

Fatty Luo looked at the money on the bed and felt very sorry: "Jiadong, you have been helping me and taking care of me since you returned to China. I don't know what to say. How can I take your money with you..."

"If you let me take it, just take it!" Lu Jiadong interrupted Fatty Luo again: "I am an orphan, and I have no relatives in this world. You are my closest person. What is this little money!"

After hearing Lu Jiadong's words, "You are my closest person", Fatty Luo didn't know what to say, the fat on his face kept trembling, and his two little eyes were filled with tears of gratitude:

"Jiadong, don't worry, let's take this money as my Fatty Luo, and wait until I earn a lot of money, I guarantee to return it to you!"

"What's wrong with not paying it back? It's important to save people!"

"That's not possible! I must pay back the money!" Fatty Luo for some reason, but he refused to give in to Lu Jiadong on this issue.

Lu Jiadong couldn't help but be amused by Fatty Luo's persistence: "Okay, I'll pay it back after you make a lot of money!"

However, Lu Jiadong's half-joking perfunctory words made Fatty Luo embarrassed: "It's easy to make a lot of money. It's just a little dead salary these days, how can you make a lot of money!"

"You can open a restaurant. With your skills, you will be a household of ten thousand yuan in less than half a year!" Lu Jiadong seemed to answer casually, causing Fatty Luo's little eyes to lit up suddenly, and the corners of his mouth were silently repeated three words:
Chapter completed!
