Returning to the Jiuzhou Science and Technology Park in Chengdu, the executives gathered for a small meeting, and Gu Qing non-stop reviewed several key projects of the R&D department.
After taking care of all the necessary matters, the time has arrived on February 11th, which is the traditional festival - New Year's Eve.
Today is the day to go home, and it is also the first time that Gu Qing returns to his hometown of Xuancheng after starting his own business.
It is a six-hour drive from Chengdu. There is no direct flight. If you take a train, it will take four hours.
As the head of one of the top high-tech companies in Xishu, Boss Gu naturally wants to return to his hometown in glory, so the means of transportation cannot be low-end.
Won the 5th Daxia Industrial Award, the 2nd Daxia "National Innovation Award", a series of Fuxinghao with a purchase price of about 170 million Xia yuan, it is naturally the best choice.
More than 500 monitoring points are deployed throughout the vehicle to provide support for all-round and multi-dimensional fault diagnosis and maintenance.
Only this can give Gu Qing a sense of psychological security.
"It's not as safe to drive by yourself as to take a train, don't you think so, Lao An?"
Anhetang nodded in approval.
Although Gu Qing's itinerary is highly confidential, in today's society where cameras are everywhere, it is okay to drive by yourself for short distances, but if you travel by yourself for long distances, the probability of problems on the road will increase significantly.
In his free time, Anhetang also talked with his retired comrades about the security issues of the rich and elite.
In comparison, Gu Qing is like a strange flower among them (a word of praise).
I don’t know how to dance in nightclubs or bars, or how to indulge in life and death. I act like a good baby all day long, without showing off or showing off.
Such a sensible boss Gu also made many travel plans that the security team had made aborted.
When the train started, Gu Qing adjusted his seat and closed his eyes to rest.
There was no need for An Hetang to wink. There were security personnel in the front and back rows of the box around where Gu Qing was sitting, and they were all keeping an eye on them.
Gu Qing never said that he wanted the security team around him to work well. He just silently raised the salary and benefits of the security department in two months.
Moreover, the security department also has the same treatment as other non-R&D departments, which is the special internal application rights for bionic mechanical prostheses.
Different from other departments, this special quota can be given not only to family members, but also to friends and even strangers, and the price of the bionic mechanical prostheses used is half of the national price.
Basically, it is a non-profitable category.
This made all the security personnel who had retired from the army moved.
No amount of slogans or building relationships can compare to the sense of belonging that excellent wages and benefits bring to people.
The train is still moving, and Xuancheng is also moving forward.
Although the national civilized town selection has passed, leaders of relevant departments have never relaxed their vigilance.
"Brother Gu, will your son go home for the Chinese New Year this year? Does he plan to get married?"
A friendly middle-aged man wearing a black down jacket was chatting with Gu Yingchao outside the Gu family's pig farm.
Gu Yingchao heard his wife's instructions and shook his head.
"I don't know. When I grow up, my career should be my priority."
"Yes, yes, yes, Brother Gu has a clear mind. Unlike the elders in other houses, the children got married and had children in their twenties as soon as they graduated. They have been delayed all their lives."
As he spoke, he took out Huazi and handed it over.
When Gu Yingchao saw this thing, he quickly waved his hand and refused.
"I'm quitting, I'm not allowed to smoke this anymore."
The middle-aged man looked puzzled before the meeting. He explained: "In the past few years, some people said it was a feed problem, and some said it was a problem with us. My wife asked me to put away cigarettes and other things. I've given up. If you hadn't come today, I wouldn't have been able to come out. When you leave later, I would have to take a shower to disinfect myself before returning to the factory."
"Plague prevention is a big deal, and you really can't be careless. Your factory has done a good job in sanitation and environmental protection this year. We will report it seriously. When the time comes, Brother Gu, your housekeeper will come back and let me know. When the time comes, we will How about I treat you to a meal?"
Gu Yingchao laughed happily and said: "Where can I ask you to invite me? After the New Year, a batch of pigs will be released. I will give you one as a gift."
Huang Qing took a deep breath and felt mixed emotions in his heart when he looked at the unscrupulous butcher in front of him.
We’ve had this conversation so many times this year, and this pig butcher has this attitude, and he can’t do his job at all…
But for the sake of his future, he secretly sighed and chatted shamelessly for a while before leaving the pig farm with the others.
"Director, is this report from the Gu family pig farm reported directly?"
Huang Qing glanced at the boy, shook his head and said: "Work is work, we can't engage in those evil ways, we will talk about the rest later."
Everyone in the group nodded.
Although Huang Qing is the deputy director, he can't help but work for others.
Just do whatever you say.
And what about Huang Qing?
He also felt a little helpless.
The Gu family is like a golden rooster, and the county attaches great importance to the Gu family.
Anyone who dares to eat too much and bring displeasure to the Gu family, not to mention a small deputy director, even the leader of the four major teams, will probably be beaten to the end.
It's a pity that after such a long relationship, the Gu family is really like a stone and does nothing.
Alas, it is difficult to handle.
Gu Qing got off the train and did not go home directly. Instead, he walked for more than twenty minutes with An Hetang and others, went to a supermarket to do some shopping, and then called his mother.
"Mom, I'm back, uh uh uh, let dad drive the truck here at IKEA, and then drive a Wuling Hongguang over. There are more than a dozen of us.
Yeah, yeah, it doesn't cost anything, okay. "
After hanging up the phone, Gu Qingcai said to An Hetang and others: "I should stay at home until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, that is, the seventeenth. You can take a few days off and come over then."
Gu Qing's intention was good. After all, the pig farm was semi-isolated and safety was guaranteed, so there was no need for so many people to live together.
Although the staff dormitory is crowded and can accommodate everyone, it is a bit unfair to everyone.
But he was obviously overthinking it.
"It's okay. We have marching tents and dry food, and our entire team is on leave."
An Hetang's tone was very calm, but there was no sign of compromise.
"Okay, what snacks do you want to eat? Hurry up and buy more. We have to stay up all night on New Year's Eve tonight."
"You are not allowed to eat snacks during the mission. We have brought our own snacks to eat."
…
An Hetang just doesn't know how to relax, but it's this work attitude that makes Gu Qing feel very at ease.
There is no greater favor than heaven.
And these people are doing it for their own personal safety, so it’s good to be strict.
Huang Qing and his group hadn't gone very far when Gu Yingchao happily drove a small truck to pick up his son.
The exhaust gas sprayed Huang Qing and others in the face.
When he arrived downstairs in the supermarket, the middle-aged butcher wiped his eyes when he saw Gu Qing being guarded by An Hetang and others.
"Dad, did you wash your hands and just wipe your eyes?"
Gu Qing opened the disinfectant wipes he carried with him and handed them over.
Gu Yingchao realized it later and took the disinfectant wipes. While wiping his hands, he sighed: "My baby has grown taller and looks different. I can hardly recognize it anymore."
Gu Qing smiled.
"After the company made money, I started to eat well and put on some weight. Weren't you there when I was video chatting with my mother?"
"I know, I thought it was for the beauty of the camera. Hey, I'm going to come back and have fun until the Chinese New Year this time."
"Yeah, well, before I leave after the New Year, let me introduce to you. The person on my left is Anhetang, the person in charge of our company's security department."
How could Anhetang be so indifferent to the big boss's father?
"Just call me Xiao Huang."
"Xiao Huang?" Gu Yingchao muttered, and hurriedly said: "No way, how can it be called this name? We are all a family. Let's get in the car first. The pigs have been killed in the house. Today we have a whole pig feast, and we also I bought a sheep and roasted it in the evening."
An Hetang was deeply moved by the roughness and fineness of a rough man.
Only Gu Qing knew that his father must have been warned by his mother, otherwise he would have become brothers with An He.
After a brief introduction, everyone loaded the things they just bought in the supermarket into the car and headed back home.
Today is New Year's Eve, and the traffic on the county road has obviously become much more crowded.
"Nowadays, many towns and villages have been merged, and schools have been moved to the county. As a result, there are more people in the county, and housing prices are almost over 10,000."
Father Gu set up the Dragon Gate Formation, but Gu Qing did not dare to take the topic.
"Dad, we can't pass the trial if we talk about this topic."
"Oh? Oh, okay, okay, then you've been pretending to be a girlfriend for a long time?"
"Why are you so anxious? I'm only in my twenties. You see, I have to be protected when I return to my hometown. How can I find time to find a daughter-in-law for you? Don't panic."
Seeing that his father wanted to talk, Gu Qing could only use his trump card: "My mother said there is no need to rush."
…
The atmosphere in the car suddenly cooled down.
They say stories are made up of coincidences, but that’s how it happened.
The warm winter sun shone on the national highway out of the city. Huang Qing had good eyesight and saw Gu Yingchao driving a car and talking and laughing with a young man.
He quickly picked up his phone and turned on the camera mode.
The heavy traffic made it difficult to speed up, but he clearly took a photo of the young man.
Then I searched for someone’s photo from the previous Daxia Economic Trends Annual Conference.
"Oh, it should be. It's back. It's back."
After muttering a few words in a low voice, he quickly opened his address book and pulled out a phone number.
"It's me, um, yes, he's back for the New Year.
Tomorrow? Okay, okay. "
After hanging up the phone, Huang Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
When the rightful owner arrived, most of his mission was completed. All he had to do was to have a successful meeting between the two parties tomorrow.
Boss Gu, who was reading the news, didn't know that his every move not only moved the hearts of business owners, but also the leaders of relevant departments in the area.
After wandering out of the city, when we arrived at the pig farm, the sun was already setting.
Due to the rampant swine fever, pig farms have adopted strict segmentation and epidemic prevention strategies.
The living area can be entered with just normal disinfection, but to enter the breeding area, you need to take a shower and change clothes before entering.
tomato
After all, there are now hundreds of pigs in the pig farm, and with some other livestock and poultry raised on the hillside, Gu's farm is prosperous.
After disinfection, Gu Qing entered the living area.
I also met my mother whom I hadn’t seen for a long time.
Perhaps it was because Gu Qing pushed back the topic of her children's marriage and love many times, so Gu's mother never mentioned this topic today.
Family love is so strange.
When we are far apart, we have a lot to say, but when we meet, we don't have much to say.
After seeing the child, Gu's mother warmly greeted An Hetang and others.
Arranged accommodation, went to the kitchen to explain to the factory chef, busy with everything.
And Gu’s father?
Picked up the butcher knife and went to process the ingredients.
However, An Hetang and others did not rest.
Everyone met, whispered for a moment and then dispersed.
Multiple drones were launched into the sky, and the regional terrain and ecological scale were modeled one by one.
Water sample and soil testing, and inspection records of electrical and network cables and other equipment are also in progress.
Even the sewage channels of pig farms have been explored, and cameras and sensors have been left behind.
There are also key records of factory employees and livestock and poultry files.
All were finished one by one before dinner started.
Not only that, in addition to many detectors and small traps placed in the mountains and forests, Anhetang also personally marked several hidden sentry points.
Although tonight is New Year's Eve, the security team will still arrange for people to be on guard duty.
High technology and "old ways" go hand in hand, which has always been the purpose of Anhetang's actions.
While they were busy, Gu Qing was always protected by more than two security personnel.
This is true even if this mountain is considered the boss's home.
And what about Gu Qing?
Before he noticed it, Xuanwu told him what An Hetang and others were doing.
While he was admiring his father's butcher's work on the pig, he learned the action points of An Hetang and others.
Gu Yingchao worked hard.
My wife is in the kitchen, my son is beside me, and I am killing pigs and dividing the meat.
Just like ten years ago.
Use the butcher's knife to separate the large tenderloin and the small tenderloin along the muscle texture.
"When you were a kid, you liked to use the tenderloin meat to make meat slices soup and big bone soup for rice."
Gu Qing smiled and nodded, helping out from time to time.
As the name suggests, a pig killing feast is to kill a pig for a banquet.
From pig blood to pig bones, several major parts of the pig are made into dishes.
The ingredients required for a large number of dishes such as blood soup, pork ribs soup, stir-fried kidneys, shredded green pepper tenderloin, fried crispy pork, cold pig ears, etc. are all placed in categories.
The chefs in the factory have been working in the Gu family for seven or eight years and are already skilled at it.
After the bones that are stewed in the soup are bleeding, they are stewed in separate pots. Put winter melon in the ribs and spices in the large bones.
After a while of busy work, the night has risen and the bright moon hangs high.
There was one table for the employees in the factory, one table for the security team, and one table for Anhetang and the backbone of the factory with Gu Qing.
There were still a lot of complaints about this year's Spring Festival Gala, but everyone is used to it.
But even on such a day, An Hetang and the others still had not touched a drop of wine.
However, they were not slow to deal with the roasted lamb and the dishes on the table, and the two of them ate with their mouths full of oil.
Gu Qing had two drinks with Father Gu and the old employees.
Gu's mother sat aside and watched everyone chatting happily, feeling happy in her heart.
After all, the Chinese New Year is all about reunion. (To be continued)
