Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 21 Helper
Half an hour later, outside the city of Sijiu.

Xu Damao panted and rode behind Zhou Weimin, shouting with difficulty: "Weimin, slow down!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Weimin immediately slowed down, came to Xu Damao, and joked, "Brother Damao, your sister-in-law is too unkind to you. Look how tired you are."

"Go away, go away, who do you think you are? You're acting like an animal. The bicycle is about to fly!"

Xu Damao slowed down and said something in a bad mood.

Zhou Weimin really just left as soon as he said he would. He didn't even slow down from the yard to the outside of the city. How could he keep up with him?

"Well, I have no choice. We buyers are not like you projectionists. If I go too late, there will be nothing for me to collect. I haven't received anything I was supposed to receive before the end of the month. Can you hurry up?"

Zhou Weimin grinned, looking at Xu Damao who was exhausted, and was sure that his current physical fitness was only better than Sha Zhu's.

Don't underestimate Xu Damao. Although he was pinned to the ground and beaten repeatedly by Sha Zhu for many years, and his flesh became chewy and elastic, his physical fitness is actually still good.

Among the younger generation in the hospital, his fighting ability is second only to Sha Zhu, so it is just right to use him for comparison.

"What are you afraid of with me here? There are all kinds of good things hidden in the commune. If you want to collect something in the future, tell me and I will go and say hello to the commune."

Xu Damao was waiting for him to say this, so he took the opportunity to continue.

"Tsk tsk, so you're waiting for me here? Brother Damao, you've only been promoted to a regular employee for a short time, so there's no need to rush to show up."

Zhou Weimin smiled, raised his eyebrows, and said lightly.

He knew that Xu Damao must have come to him for this matter, and was wondering how long Xu Damao could hold it in. He didn't expect that he couldn't hold it in after just a few words.

"No, Wei Min, just help me, your brother. You know your sister-in-law is the daughter of the Lou family. If I don't make some achievements, my father-in-law will look down on me. As long as you help me this time, if you have any difficulties in the future tasks, I will definitely find a way to help you get them together. What do you think?"

Xu Damao was not embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed, and even seemed a little proud when he talked about Lou Xiaoe.

"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that it's not appropriate now."

Zhou Weimin shook his head and suddenly became serious.

"Why is it inappropriate? If Hong Sihai can do it, I can do it too. There's nothing better about him than me."

Xu Damao didn't quite understand what Zhou Weimin was worried about. It was obviously a good thing for everyone, so why was it inappropriate?

"Hey, Brother Damao, don't play dumb with me. How long have you been promoted? How long have I been promoted? And we were both promoted ahead of time. I don't know how many people are jealous of us. If I help you to do something serious, you can't expect to be promoted, but you can still hope for punishment."

Zhou Weimin chuckled. Xu Damao was a little clever, but he cared too much about immediate interests.

No wonder He Yuzhu used that kind of trick on him before the storm, and ended up being squeezed out of the steel mill and transferred to the cinema.

"That's the truth. Otherwise, Weimin, you would have been admitted to a technical secondary school. You must be smart."

Xu Damao thought about it and realized that he was too impatient, so he flattered him awkwardly.

The main reason is that every time he goes to his father-in-law's house, he feels ashamed, so he wants to seize any opportunity he sees.

"Hey, everyone gets impatient sometimes. I was anxious to get a regular job earlier, and I made a lot of jokes." Zhou Weimin gave Xu Damao a way out and continued, "Brother Damao, I think you shouldn't think about climbing up now. How high can you climb? Who is your father-in-law? He is Director Lou of our factory. He used to own the entire steel mill. Even if you are promoted to deputy section chief, will he look up to you?"

"That's true, but I have no other choice. Wei Min, stop making sarcastic remarks and give me some advice."

Xu Damao frowned in annoyance. What Zhou Weimin said always gave him a sense of déjà vu, as if his father-in-law Lou Zhenhua had also advised him to calm down and not think of taking shortcuts.

"How simple it is, just study projection technology, do I need to tell you that? Why is Sha Zhu so arrogant in the factory? Isn't it because he is a good cook and the factory has to use him for reception? It's the same for you, the projectionist. You have studied so much that the factory leaders have to find you to show movies. Isn't this more comfortable than being a leader? Who wouldn't be polite to you?"

Zhou Weimin found it a little funny. Xu Damao really was a man with a treasure trove but didn't realize it.

There is no shortage of opportunities for projectionists these days. As long as they have good projection skills, it is easy to get to know the leaders.

I know a lot of leaders, and there are always one or two who are blind and promote him just because they think he is good.

Just like in the play, Director Yang took him to show movies for the senior leaders. If he showed the movie safely, wouldn't it be an opportunity to meet an important person?

"That's right. Shazhu is just a lousy cook. How can he compare to the projectionist?"

Xu Damao thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. His eyes brightened when he thought that his leader would always look for him to show movies.

He was not a stingy person. After being enlightened, he said generously: "Wei Min, there is nothing to say. I won't let you down. Your sister-in-law just brought back two pieces of bacon and some sausages a few days ago. I will invite you to my house for dinner and we can have a couple of drinks."

"Hey, it's all a small matter. Even if I don't tell you, Uncle Xu will tell you soon. But I've been craving meat lately, so I won't be polite with this meal."

Zhou Weimin did not take credit for it. He said Xu Damao just couldn't think straight for a moment. He talked so much with Xu Damao today just to find help.

After all, he had just had a falling out with Yi Zhonghai in the morning, and who knows what will happen to him next.

The third uncle is a person who won't take the lead, so we have to find someone who will take the lead to be on guard and prepare for a rainy day.

"Hahaha, Wei Min, this is your fault. If you had told me earlier that you wanted to eat meat, I would have given you one less bite of meat."

Xu Damao spoke politely, but he always felt that Zhou Weimin's words just now were weird, as if he was being taken advantage of.

But I immediately put this feeling behind me. Who cares? If someone takes advantage of me, then that's it. It's not like I'll lose a single cent.

Judging from Zhou Weimin's attitude, if he and Sha Zhu have any problems in the future, he might be able to help him.

"No, who doesn't crave meat these days? I always get thrown out by you, Brother Damao."

Zhou Weimin joked, then smiled and said, "No more joking. When we get to Fengshui Commune, Brother Damao, you have to help me speak up. I have a lot of eggs to buy, and I hope the commune can give me more."

"Don't worry, wrap it on me!"
