Rebirth in 1970: I work as an educated youth in a forestry farm

When Sheng Xiping arrived at the Longjiang Hotel, he discovered that it was not just Wu Bingzhong and his son who came to Heihe this time.

There are also several old men in military uniforms. One look at the epaulettes shows that they are all of high rank.

The leaders in the city accompanied him respectfully and did not dare to say a word.

Wu Bingzhong was very happy to see Sheng Xiping. He hurriedly called Sheng Xiping to sit next to him, and then introduced him to everyone with a smile.

"Everyone, this is what I'm talking about, Mr. Sheng of Teng Yue Trading Company, Quanzi's partner, and the brother of my little son-in-law."

Most of the city leaders knew Sheng Xiping, but they only knew that he was related to Xu Guoxing from the Finance Bureau. They did not know that Sheng Xiping had such a close relationship with the Wu family.

At this time, several leaders were dumbfounded when they heard Wu Bingzhong's words.

If they had known about this relationship earlier, when Sheng Xiping wanted to cooperate in building a hotel, they would have agreed happily.

This was good. After the hotel was built, the city had no share in making money, but the Finance Bureau took advantage.

"Xiping, come here, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Yang and this is the forest worker. They all heard what I said about this place and came here to take a look."

Wu Bingzhong introduced the two elderly men to Sheng Xiping.

Mr. Yang looks much older than Wu Bingzhong. He wears glasses and his gray hair is already more white than black.

Lin Gong looked older than Wu Bingzhong, and his hair was a bit whiter, but he was in good spirits and his eyes were bright.

"Hello, Chief." Sheng Xiping stood next to Wu Bingzhong and saluted politely.

"Comrade Xiao Sheng, I have heard Bingzhong mention you a long time ago. You are a good comrade. Sit down quickly, don't be formal."

Mr. Yang smiled at Sheng Xiping and said kindly.

Brothers Sheng Xiping and Wu Yuqing sat down as instructed. At this time, everyone had arrived and the waiters in the restaurant began to serve the dishes.

Wu Bingzhong specifically called Sheng Xiping over because he really wanted to set up a platform for Sheng Xiping and tell the people in the city clearly that Sheng Xiping was backed by the Wu family.

The matter of replacing special steel is confidential and cannot be mentioned on this occasion.

This meal was basically just chatting, talking about some views on border trade and so on.

As a beneficiary of border trade, Sheng Xiping was also named by Wu Bingzhong and expressed some opinions.

"Comrade Xiaosheng, thank you very much for putting forward these opinions. It is indeed a great inspiration for our next work direction.

From now on, no matter what happens, just come to us. "

After Sheng Xiping finished speaking, the city leaders raised their glasses, served Xiping wine very politely, and expressed their opinions in public.

Wu Bingzhong and others have other things to do with Sheng Xiping. Since the goal has been achieved, the wine is just for the sake of it.

After finishing their meal not long after, Wu Bingzhong and his party got up to leave.

"Xiping, let's go, take us to your warehouse to take a look." Wu Bingzhong winked at Sheng Xiping and said.

Sheng Xiping quickly agreed, stepped forward to help Mr. Yang, and the group left the hotel, got in the car, and headed straight to the warehouse base.

When they got here, Wu Bingzhong and others walked around symbolically, and then everyone went into the room and sat down together.

Sheng Xiping sent everyone else elsewhere, leaving only Wu Bingzhong, Mr. Yang, Lin Gong, Sheng Xiping and the Wu brothers in the room.

"Xiping, there won't be any problems with this transaction, right?

This special steel is different. Are the people you work with reliable? "After everyone sat down, Mr. Yang asked Sheng Xiping worriedly.

"Mr. Yang, I don't dare to guarantee that this will happen.

I had worked very well with Ivanov’s friend Andrei before, and Andrei highly recommended Ivanov to me.

I feel that this person's background is not simple. Since he agreed, he should be able to find a solution.

I can only say that I will try my best to facilitate this matter, but I can’t guarantee whether there will be any mistakes in the process. "

After all, Maozi hasn't reached a particularly chaotic stage yet. The KGB over there is very powerful, and Sheng Xiping can't guarantee that Ivanov can really sort everything out.

"We have agreed that when border trade reopens tomorrow, they will bring the freight over. We can only wait until tomorrow to find out what the specific situation will be."

This is all Sheng Xiping can do. I think Ivanov will find a way to transport steel for the sake of beautiful swords.

After hearing this, Mr. Yang and others nodded, okay, this young man is quite reliable in his words and actions.

It's not like some people who talk and blow and have three points of ability, but they just blow to ten points.

"Okay, let's wait and see what happens tomorrow." Mr. Yang looked at the forest worker and nodded towards Wu Bingzhong.

Then, Wu Bingzhong spoke, "Xiping, actually we have something else we want to ask for your help with."

Sheng Xiping was stunned and said, "Uncle, if you have anything to do, just ask me. Whatever I can do, you don't have to ask, I will definitely do it."

Sheng Xiping said this, but he couldn't help but wonder in his heart. These old men wouldn't give him any problems, right?

Is it possible that you plan to ask him to help buy Su-27 or T80? He doesn't have that ability now.

"Ahem, that's right. You also know that our domestic manufacturing industry, especially military manufacturing, is still very backward in technology.

If possible, we would like to buy some machine tools. "Wu Bingzhong coughed twice in embarrassment before revealing his purpose.

When Sheng Xiping heard this, he could only smile bitterly, "Uncle, the third child told me about this during the Chinese New Year.

For now, the heat is not yet there, and I’m not sure how strong the support behind Ivanov is.

Let's do this. Let's complete this batch of transactions first. After making sure there are no problems, I will find a way to contact Ivanov and try to talk to him. Is that okay? "

The transaction of special steel is a path exploration. If Ivanov can figure this out, then we can talk about other things.

I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so no matter what I do, I have to do it step by step.

"Uncle, don't worry. I will definitely take care of this matter. No matter when the negotiation is finalized, I will inform you as soon as possible."

That's all Sheng Xiping can do. As a flower grower's rabbit, he is willing to contribute to the country, which must be within his ability.

"Okay, then it's settled. As long as there is a chance, no matter what the other party's conditions are, we have to find a way to get two sets of machine tools back."

Before Wu Bingzhong could speak, Mr. Yang spoke first.

Sheng Xiping chatted with Wu Bingzhong and others for a while. Seeing that it was getting dark, they got up and left.

Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng sent them outside and watched several old people get into the car and leave before going back to the house to rest.

No one from Sun Jinggang and others dared to inquire. Everyone was preparing for tomorrow's border trade.

The few people who went home to celebrate the New Year also came back, many of them.

At seven or eight o'clock in the evening, everyone turned off the TV, packed their beds and went to bed.

The next day is the seventeenth day of the first lunar month. In some places, the seventh, seventeenth and twenty-seventh day of the first lunar month are regarded as seven human days.

Generally speaking, the seventh day is in charge of children, the seventeenth day is in charge of youth, and the twenty-seventh day is in charge of the elderly. If the weather in these three days is good, it means that both young and old will be prosperous this year.

The customs in the Northeast are not much different. When they got up on the morning of the 17th, Aunt Yang and Aunt Xu rolled out the noodles and marinated the meat with onions and sauce.

Everyone ate. Sheng Xiping ate three bowls in one go before putting down his chopsticks.

After breakfast, Sheng Xiping assigned tasks to everyone. Sun Jinggang led more than ten people to trade on the big island as before.

Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng took half of the rest of the people to the riverside to wait to receive the goods, while the other half stayed at the warehouse base.

While assigning tasks, Sheng Xiping was thinking that there were still too few people under his command, not enough.

I don’t know if my uncle contacted the veterans after he returned.

"Oh, I forgot something yesterday. I should tell my uncle and ask him to help contact some veterans. We are short of people now."

Sheng Xiping followed everyone towards the river, talking to Wu Yucheng as he walked.

"Brother, this is simple. I'll tell my dad later."

Wu Yucheng was happy when he heard this. In his eyes, this matter was not worth mentioning at all.

The warehouse is not far from the riverside, and everyone walked there for a while.

The surface of the river is still frozen and shows no sign of melting. People can walk on it without any problems.

Sun Jinggang led his men and dragged several sledges along the river to the big island in the middle of the river, where he traded with Maozi who was already waiting there.

Sheng Xiping and his people were waiting by the river. When the second-rate dealers saw Sheng Xiping, they rushed over to say hello.

Before the first lunar month, it is the New Year. When everyone meets, they must pay each other New Year greetings and say hello.

"Mr. Sheng, what kind of goods can you bring back today? No matter what you have, don't forget your brothers."

"It's not clear yet what kind of goods are coming. Don't worry, as long as they are not reserved in advance, they will definitely be available for everyone." Sheng Xiping chatted with everyone with a smile.

While we were talking and laughing, we saw numerous large trucks densely packed on the other side of the river. After passing the border inspection, they slowly drove over the river.

"The goods are coming, the goods are coming, oh my god, whose goods are these? The border trade just opened today, how come there are so many goods coming?"

On the riverside, a group of people looked at the big truck coming from the opposite direction, and they were all very excited.

It doesn't matter who sells the goods, as long as they come here, they have to find someone to sell them, and they, the second-rate dealers, will make money.

In the past month or so before last year, these second-rate dealers made a lot of money. After getting a bargain, they naturally wanted to make more.

While he was talking, the big truck had slowly driven to the riverside. Those who had good information gathered around him and asked who the goods were from.

The driver, Mao Zi, muttered a lot, but most people couldn't understand it. Only a few people who knew Russian quickly translated.

"They said this is the goods of Tengyue Trading Company. There are steel, wood, fertilizers and so on."

When they heard that the goods were from Teng Yue Trading Company, the second-rate dealers immediately moved out of the way to let the big truck pass.

As the trucks drove up to the shore one after another, they saw several big men getting out of the trucks.

As soon as Sheng Xiping saw those people, he stepped forward to greet them with a smile.

"Oh, Andrei, Sergey, Visniak, long time no see, my friends."

Andre and others came forward and gave Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng big hugs, "Long time no see, Sheng, I miss you so much."

"Where's Ivanov? Why didn't you see him?"

Sheng Xiping took a closer look and saw no sign of Ivanov. He couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. Could something be wrong with this kid?

"Oh, he's in the back. As you know, the goods he brought are quite special, and the customs clearance procedures are a little more troublesome." Andre explained quickly.

Sheng Xiping finally felt relieved after hearing this.

At this time, a large number of trucks drove over, and they had no time to chat. They were busy directing the truck drivers to transport fertilizers to the warehouse, and ordinary steel and wood to be unloaded at the dock.

At the current dock, there are many Heihe locals waiting to unload goods.

The winter here is long and there is not much work. They go to the dock to help unload and load trucks. They can earn twenty or thirty yuan a day, which is pretty good.

For a time, all parts of the pier were busy, but the cars on the opposite side were still driving towards this direction in a steady stream.

You know, border trade between the two countries has been suspended for more than 20 days. Maozi's side is celebrating the New Year and they have too many goods backlogged.

At this time, Wu Bingzhong, Yang Lao, Lin Gong and others, who had changed into casual clothes, also came to the riverside.

Seeing the busy scene in front of them, several old people were also very happy. They did not come forward to say hello to Sheng Xiping, but watched from a distance.

After about two or three hours, Andre and others' goods were almost shipped.

Then, another large group of trucks came across the river. This time, Ivanov was following.

When she saw Ivanov jumping out of the car, Sheng Xiping's heart finally fell.

"Ivanov, I'm finally waiting for you. Long time no see, friend." Sheng Xiping stepped forward enthusiastically and greeted Ivanov.

Ivanov also smiled and returned the warmest hug, "Sheng, according to what you said, I got a total of several thousand tons of steel from Komsomolsk this time.

The transit of 400 tons will be arranged today and will continue tomorrow. "Ivanov took the opportunity to whisper in Sheng Xiping's ear. "Don't forget what we agreed. "

"Don't worry, you will definitely be indispensable, my friend, happy cooperation." Sheng Xiping patted Ivanov on the back and laughed loudly.

Special steel is only the first step. Ivanov has proven his strength. Next, they will strengthen cooperation in more fields.

The steel Ivanov brought over was different from the previous ones.

Sheng Xiping discussed with Wu Bingzhong and others yesterday that these steel materials will be inspected by professionals when they come over.

As long as all the data meets the requirements, the military will arrange a dedicated person and a special vehicle to send it away, so Sheng Xiping and the others don't need to worry.

As for the payment, it will be paid directly to Tengyue Company's Heihe account.

Although it is special steel, why does Sheng Xiping have the nerve to charge a high price? The price per ton is actually lower than that of stainless steel.

Sheng Xiping is still very conscious and understands the overall situation. Besides, even if the price is lower, he can still make a lot of money.

If you can cooperate with these big guys, you will gain more than just money. The hidden assets behind it are even more important.

There are four hundred tons of special steel, and there are dozens of trucks alone, which can't be unloaded in a while.

Sheng Xiping simply left Wang Dongcheng and others here to watch, while he led Andre, Ivanov and others to the Longjiang Hotel.
