Chapter 418 The timing is right
Someone invited them to dinner, which was exactly what these avant-garde educated youth wanted.
Even though they are small and insignificant, they probably don't even have 10 yuan in their pockets.
"Haha," the group of educated youths were immediately delighted, flattering the leader, Kang Zhiqing: "It has to be Boss Kang!"
"We just got to the bottom of the Chemical Industry Building and someone invited us to dinner!"
"Yes, it's Cuihualou again. I want to eat their fried chicken and fried meatballs!"
“It would be nice if I could eat their scallion-fried sea cucumber.”
Before they even got there, the group of educated youths began to imagine what dishes to order, their saliva was almost dripping onto the ground.
However, the leader, Kang Zhiqing, was born in a bureaucratic family and was naturally sensitive. He threw the cigarette butt under his feet and crushed it. He frowned and tilted his head to look Wang Deming up and down, "The stinky guard just said you are the leader?"
"What level are you at?"
"My old man has always looked down on me, so it's useless for you to treat me to a meal."
Wang Deming had never expected that Mr. Kang was so alert. He pointed at them with his finger, shook his head and explained, "I just talked to Chief Kang about the educated youth returning to the city."
"It's just that I was on a business trip before, so I don't know much about the situation. I just happened to meet you. I guess you have also heard about the new document issued by the country, so I want to hear your thoughts."
“Without investigation, there is no right to speak.”
"Humph! You are wrong, old comrade." Kang Zhiqing curled his lips in disdain. "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth."
"However," he rolled his eyes, "since you, old comrade, want to learn more about the lives of our educated youth, then this meal is yours to treat."
He pointed to his fellow educated youths behind him and said, "We are a group of people who went to the countryside from all over the country. We went to Heilongjiang, Shaanxi, Jiangxi, Yunnan. If you want to know anything, you can get enough food and wine."
"Okay." Wang Deming walked to the gate and asked the soldiers on duty to tell his secretary that he was treating them to a meal, and then he took this group of spirited young educated youth to Cuihua Building on Wangfujing Street.
According to the concept of spirited young men in the previous life, the returned educated youth that Wang Deming was going to invite to dinner can be completely included in this category.
The Ministry of Chemical Industry building is at the intersection of East Chang'an Avenue and Taiji Factory. Wangfujing Street is to the north of the street. It takes more than ten minutes to walk to Cuihua Building, which is directly opposite Dongfeng Market.
In just ten minutes, this group of spirited educated youth excitedly turned on the recorders on their shoulders and turned up the volume to the maximum, "Dongcedaci, Dongcedaci."
Walking while shaking your butt
Damn it, Wang Deming almost died. Didn’t you notice what I was wearing?
He is wearing a standard woolen Zhongshan suit with the collar buttons buttoned tightly, and gold-rimmed glasses. It is obvious that he is at least a cadre. I really want to treat you to a meal.
Is this how you, a bunch of spiritual educated youth, repay me?
Don’t you even have the most basic respect?
If I don’t let you see that the Horse King has three eyes, you won’t know why the flowers are so red?
Wang Deming still had a faint smile on his face, but he had already decided in his heart that he must teach these young men a lesson.
When they arrived at Cuihualou, Wang Deming took out 20 yuan and gave it to Kang Zhiqing, "Xiaokang, take your friends to a private room and order some food."
"I just remembered that I have something to do at work and I need to call the office to give instructions."
"Okay! Thank you!" Kang Zhiqing didn't know what politeness was. He reached out to take the money very quickly. He probably did this many times at home.
Wang Deming shook his head, and after identifying himself at the checkout counter, he politely asked for the phone and called the secretary of the real boss. "I'm Wang Deming."
Just as he said this, he heard a commotion outside, as if a fight had broken out.
After Kang Zhiqing got the money, he took this group of energetic young men and asked the waiter to order food. "Waiter, hurry up!"
"Bring us whatever delicious food we have today!"
"I have money today!"
"Fuck! Who the hell are you calling a boss to?" Several waiters rolled up their sleeves and surrounded these guys. "You guys are going to go backwards in history, right?"
"Come on, grandson, where the hell did you bugs come from?"
"Kill those who are walking around."
In an instant, a big fight broke out in the courtyard at the entrance of Cuihua Building.
Behind the waiter, on the slightly yellowed wall, it was written in large red letters: Beating or scolding customers is strictly prohibited.
At the beginning, the two sides were tied. No matter how cunning and sly the educated youth were when they went to the countryside, they still had to do farm work. Although the food was a bit worse, they could still eat. They couldn't say that they could eat a full meal every time, but they could always eat more than half full, so their physical fitness was good.
The waiters at Cuihualou, who serve dishes every day, also have a good physique.
However, after the cooks in the kitchen joined the battle, the spirited educated youth were beaten back again and again.
These cooks were all fat, with ruddy faces, broad shoulders and strong waists. They held large steel spoons in their hands and hit these spirited educated youth on the head.
The spirited educated youth fled in panic and were beaten to Wangfujing Street.
Then they started swearing at each other until the police from Dongdan Police Station arrived and finally stopped the farce.
Wang Deming was dumbfounded. He had just picked up the phone and had no time to give any instructions.
Are these spirited young men so fierce?
The police from the police station quickly persuaded the crowd to disperse and took all those who were fighting to the police station to register.
Wang Deming did not show up. If he guessed correctly, seeing how skillfully the police at the police station handled the situation, this kind of fights should have been very common after the educated youth returned to the city this year.
He continued to use Cuihua Building's phone to call Zhen Da Lao's secretary, told him his thoughts on arranging jobs for the educated youth returning to the city, and then asked the secretary to arrange a time to meet Zhen Da Lao.
According to the secretary's feedback, the boss' biggest headache at the moment is the work arrangements for the educated youth.
Although the higher authorities have issued guidance documents on the work of educated youth, how could it be possible to arrange jobs for all the millions of educated youth returning to Beijing based solely on the guidance documents?
Unless there are 10 people doing one job.
But at that time, the factory was owned by the whole people and it was a planned economy. Where did the city government get so much money to pay wages?
Wang Deming's idea about the work arrangement for the educated youth hit the nail on the head. Not long after, Zhen Da's secretary called him back and told him that it would be August 8th.
Because there are two very important meetings on August 8th.
After making the call, Wang Deming strolled leisurely to the Wangfujing Police Station. When he saw the spirited young men led by Kang Zhiqing, he almost laughed out loud.
Thanks to his long experience and the fact that he could not show his emotions on his face, he was able to control himself.
These spirited young men looked extremely miserable, with bruises and bruises all over their faces and bodies, and spoon marks could be clearly seen.
After greeting the police station chief and leading Kang Zhiqing and the others out, Wang Deming asked, "Xiaokang, are you still going to Cuihualou for dinner?"
