Half an hour later.
When Wang Dakui appeared again, there was an extra wooden board in the carriage.
The wooden boards are rectangular slats painted with black paint.
The length is about the same as the signboard at the entrance of a large store, and the width is also about the same as the signboard at the entrance of a large store.
Li Aiguo walked closer and took a closer look.
There are also several large gilt characters on it: "He Family Pawn Shop".
There are also thunder patterns carved around it, making it look majestic and majestic.
Damn, it’s really a sign of a big store.
Li Aiguo frowned: "Dakui, what is this? Didn't I ask you to find a wooden board?"
"Hehe" Wang Dakui showed his big white teeth and said proudly: "Originally I was planning to go to the lumber factory, but suddenly I remembered that Wang Damao's family next door picked up a plaque on the street a few years ago and kept it at home unused. I spent half a catty of rice to exchange it."
A few years ago.
Many unscrupulous businessmen knew they would be in trouble in the future, so they left one after another.
The things in the shop that can be sold are sold, and the things that cannot be sold are left alone, not to mention the shop's plaque.
At that time, many people collected plaques along the street.
This thing is smooth and flat, but still very strong, and can be used as a chair surface.
Li Aiguo reached out and knocked on the wooden board, and the wooden board made a thick sound.
He groaned and peeled off a piece of black paint on the plaque, revealing a vermilion background.
The texture is fine, the wood grain is very straight, thin and shallow, the surface is smooth and delicate, and it emits an attractive luster.
Wang Dakui also noticed something strange at this moment. He came over and stared wide-eyed: "Good guy, this plaque is actually made of rosewood."
"Snapped"
He was also patted on the head.
Li Aiguo took back his hand and scolded: "You uneducated guy, what kind of rosewood is this? This is mahogany!"
"It doesn't matter whether it's mahogany or rosewood, when it comes to our collective junk shop, it's just junk."
Wang Dakui didn't feel excited at all about picking up the leak, and scratched his head depressedly.
Li Aiguo was speechless for a moment.
It seems that the professional level of employees still needs to be improved.
Otherwise, it would be regarded as receiving ancient bronze artifacts.
These two goods will also be treated as scrap metal and used as production materials and sent to the factory.
Well, I have several books related to cultural relics and antiques at home.
Bring it tomorrow so these two guys can memorize it.
but.
Wang Dakui was right. This thing would be worth hundreds of thousands in future generations, but it would be considered junk in a junk shop.
It was a broken board, and Li Aiguo had no intention of collecting it.
Commander Wang Dakui and Zhang Erpao lifted the plaque off the donkey riding upside down.
He asked He Yuyu to go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy a bottle of black paint and a piece of red paper.
Use black paint to paste the name of the pawn shop and cover it with red paper.
Written on the red paper were the words "South Tongluo Lane Collective Scrap Shop Purchasing Point".
Aunt Liu watched from the side and nodded frequently: "The pawnshop that used to eat people and drink blood has now become a waste collection point that serves the people. They all collect waste, but their intentions are completely different."
Li Aiguo gave Aunt Liu a thumbs up.
Look at this old lady, her ideological consciousness is getting higher and higher.
In this era, when a collective store opens, a ceremony must be held.
Li Aiguo decided to set the opening day for tomorrow morning.
Please ask Aunt Liu and Yuyu to inform the neighbors.
Then he asked Wang Dakui and Zhang Erpao to ride on donkeys, holding gongs and shouting in a nearby alley.
He then rode his bicycle back to the locomotive depot dormitory.
Today, Zhang Yazhi promised that after completing the divorce procedures at the Railway Court, she would come to the courtyard to help.
No one was seen all day long.
Is something wrong?
Riding on a tandem bicycle and facing the fiery red sunset, we returned to the locomotive depot.
As soon as Li Aiguo entered the gate, he was stopped by the security officer.
"Driver Li, you are back just in time. Minister Niu from the Armed Forces Ministry asked you to come over."
The Ministry of Armed Forces is the yamen of Tiekou in the locomotive depot.
Inviting people over for no reason is generally not a good thing.
"Minister Niu? Do you know what's going on?" Li Aiguo frowned, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over.
"You're always so polite."
The security officer smiled and reached out to take it, put it in his sleeve, looked around, and said in a low voice:
"Don't be afraid. All of you in the 131 crew have been invited. There won't be any big trouble. I heard it's related to a member of your crew named Zhang."
He seemed to realize that he had said too much, so he quickly shrank his neck, turned around and entered the house.
The team member named Zhang is Zhang Yazhi?
In the hot summer, cicadas lie on the big trees and scream desperately, which is very annoying.
Li Aiguo felt that the weather suddenly became cold.
"Name?"
"Li Aiguo."
"age?"
"Eighteen years old."
"Family is born?"
Two hours ago.
After the comrades of the 131st crew were notified to the Ministry of Armed Forces, Minister Niu read out the internal review decision to them.
The reason is unknown.
However, everyone in the locomotive depot knows that internal audits organized by the Ministry of Armed Forces are often related to leaks.
What's more, two middle-aged comrades in gray tunic suits stood behind Minister Niu.
That gloomy look.
Standard stance.
Cold eyes.
It all shows that their status is unusual.
These people have experienced hundreds of battles and possess the characteristics of being as cunning as a fox and perceptive to every detail.
Li Aiguo smelled the smell of Lao Hei from the five-member group.
Commander Bai was anxious at that time.
She trusts her team members.
Crew 131 had just broken the overall safety record. At this time, an internal audit was conducted, and it was obvious that someone was throwing dirty water.
She was about to defend herself a few words when she was angrily interrupted by Minister Niu: "Captain Bai, the internal audit is an order directly issued by the general section. I hope you can improve your ideological understanding and actively cooperate."
Upon hearing the order from the General Administration, Commander Bai suddenly felt like a deflated ball and could only stand aside silently.
Starting from Captain Bai, then Cao Wenzhi, they lined up to get their hair braided, one by one.
The review started in the afternoon and continued until late at night.
The members of the traveling group were locked in a large conference room, and the meals were packed and delivered.
Minister Niu called each name and entered one by one.
Others are just suffering in the long wait.
Li Aiguo is the last one.
In the dark room of the Armed Forces Department of the Maintenance Section.
The light bulb hanging on the roof "sizzled" and flickered twice from time to time.
The two men in gray tunic suits sitting across from each other looked serious.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn, and the storm was about to come.
The person who presided over the interrogation was an old man from the Ministry of Armed Forces. After asking a few simple questions, he started to get straight to the point.
"I heard that you have a very good relationship with Comrade Zhang Yazhi. Do you have a relationship that goes beyond that between comrades?"
"Absolutely not!"
Li Aiguo stood up and said categorically: "Slander, this is pure slander!"
Minister Niu waved his hand: "Please don't get excited. We have done comprehensive research and confirmed that you are innocent. Otherwise, the conversation would not be here."
Li Aiguo breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what Zhang Yazhi is involved in.
If he was put in this shit basin, things would be in trouble.
Unlike later generations who laughed at the poor but not at prostitution, having promiscuous relationships between men and women was taboo in this era.
Some people can't control what's in their crotch, and the final result is not very good.
for example.
Former Deputy Chief of the Maintenance Section Liu.
Because of the promiscuous relationship between men and women, which has not been confirmed, but now he is sent to the maintenance station.
Minister Niu then asked:
"Comrade Li Aiguo, may Comrade Zhang Yazhi ask you about what happened on the train?"
Li Aiguo has undergone several audits in the past six months.
It had slowed down by now.
He answered truthfully, quite relaxedly.
"Zhang Yazhi is the flight attendant and I am the driver. We usually chat for a while on the return trip, and the content involved is all trivial matters in work and life."
While he was answering questions, the two men in Mao suits kept staring at him.
After answering, Minister Niu looked at the Mao suit. Seeing that the Mao suit had no expression, he continued to ask the next question.
Good guys, these two are human lie detector machines!
It’s just that Li Aiguo has nothing to lie about.
Because Zhang Yazhi did not ask anything.
Most of Minister Niu's subsequent questions revolved around Zhang Yazhi.
From whether she pays attention to the identity of the passengers in the soft compartment in daily life.
Whether she had discussed any major events or relationships, what her opinions were at the time, and what Li Aiguo’s views were, and why she had this view.
Li Aiguo was sweating profusely from these deadly questions.
He stood up suddenly and said loudly: "Minister Niu, Zhang Yazhi has not discussed these matters with me.
But I can make my point clear.
Ever since I joined the Locomotive Maintenance Section, I have followed with a red heart and an unwavering determination to forge ahead. .
If you want to insult my beliefs, why not take out your pistol and force me right here.
See if the blood is red! "
