Three days later, after taking back three banners from Xu's mother, Lu Li thanked her and began to make the final preparations. The money and the corresponding documents were laid out in close proximity, the firecrackers and banners were stuffed into a big leather schoolbag, and under the forced force of my aunt, he put a lot of medicine and food in it. He bought a train ticket to Beijing (Beijing), waved goodbye to my aunt and two sisters, and was alone, embarked on a journey of ignorance.

Get off the train in Beijing (Beijing), and did not leave the station, so I directly purchased a train ticket to Yangcheng. At 1:12 pm, the green-skinned hard-seat train began to slowly leave Beijing (Beijing) and started a long journey of three days and three nights. When I started from Beijing (Beijing) station, there were not many passengers, and most of them got off the train halfway, and there were almost no one like him who sat from beginning to end!

The green iron train was very slow. After nearly two hours, after passing by TJ, Cangzhou, Dezhou and Yanzhou, roaring forward, passing through the city and the province. As the train headed south, the air in the car became more and more humid and hot. I woke up in a daze in my seat. The sky outside was already bright. I asked the flight attendant and replied, "It's still far away, you have to wait!"

When the train entered the province of Hubei (Bei), Lu Li couldn't understand a word about the passengers around him! The speech in the two lakes was completely in southern accent. These people may not be able to speak Mandarin, but they communicated in dialects, speaking quickly and chaoticly. When they heard it in their ears, they were like they were in foreign countries.

After riding the train for more than 48 hours, Luli's legs began to swell, and asked the conductor, "It's still thirty-eight hours before we can get to Yangcheng."

Luli sighed deeply, stood up, walked to the entrance of the train car, and stood leaning against the door; three or two men were smoking along with the shaking body, and saw a stranger who smiled at each other, continued to smoke, and stood still, "…………”

Luli couldn't understand the other party's dialect, pointed to his ear, "I can't understand."

“The (north) side?”

"Oh, Tian(Jin)."

"Ah," the three of them obviously didn't know the name, and they said to their two companions, "Where are you shaking the side?"

"It's very close to Beijing (Beijing) and not far from Tangshan."

"Ah, I know, we are from Ji (nan) Prefecture, Lu Province."

Luli nodded and smiled, "I know, I know, a good place. It's the Spring City!"

Hearing that this stranger could tell the most praiseworthy characteristics of his hometown, the three men from Lu immediately laughed, as if they had known him for a long time, and began to chat in vague ways, "Where to the south?"

"What about you in Yangcheng?"

"Hu(nan), Xiang(tan)!" SD is generous and enthusiastic in nature. After a while of conversation, he pulled Luli back to his seat. The distance between the two sides was not very far, so he moved to a range and placed cigarettes, wine, eggs, and roast chicken. "Try this, Dezhou braised chicken! Can we drink a little?" Seeing the boy opposite nodding, the Lu man was even happier and poured him a cup, "Come on, everyone in the world! We are all brothers! We are also destined to get together on a train, so drink!"

So, several people from both sides who didn't even know their names sat in the shaking carriage and raised their glasses and drank them together.

"Is it a business trip to the south?"

“Hey. on a business trip.”

"We are from Ji (Nan) Packaging Machinery Factory. Over the years, we have been traveling a lot on the south side. You have never been to Tianjin, do you know?"

Lu Li nodded frequently. Facing these three men who had never known each other but immediately opened their hearts to strangers, he had to choose to lie. He felt a little sorry for others. He picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one go, "Uh, brother can you really drink it? It's a good thing!"

In the understanding of people in Lu Province, anyone who drinks generously and happily must be a good man! He immediately became more in love with him, laughed and poured him full of wine again.

In terms of alcoholism, Luli has drunk many times in the past few years, and has never been afraid of it! But this time it was a little different. After sitting down for more than 30 hours of train, he was trapped and exhausted, and was afraid of encountering bad people. He lost things inadvertently and did not dare to close his eyes for a while. He was really tired. After drinking three or five cups in a row, his mind began to dizzy. Although he kept reminding himself not to sleep and not to sleep, he finally couldn't withstand the fatigue on his body. His body tilted and he fell asleep.

I don’t know how long it took, but he felt someone was patting his face, “Brother? Wake up? Wake up? We’re getting off the car!”

Lu Li was shocked and faced the three people's kind and honest smiles, "Brother, it's time for us to get off the bus. If you have time, go to Ji (Nan) Mansion and find us at the packaging machinery factory - you can drink it. Next time we meet, we'll have a good drink!"

"Okay!" Luli sent a few steps out and waved to the three of them, "We are destined to see you again."

After stopping in Xiangtan for a while, the train continued to travel south, and there was nothing to say on the road. Finally, he arrived at Yangcheng Railway Station at 10 o'clock on the morning of June 4. Luli carried his simple luggage and walked out of the station. Pedestrians were in the square in front of the station, and vehicles were passing by. The buildings on both sides of the road were lined up, and the eardrums were filled with wow cantata, and I couldn't understand a word!

Lu Li moved his body in the street, identified it left and right, and walked towards the post office at the intersection; when he entered the door, he pulled the long-distance telephone booth - it was no different from Tianjin. There was a door that was black inside. After people walked in, they stepped on the floor and the small light above their heads would light up. At that time, there was a very troublesome procedure for answering long-distance calls: first wait in the waiting area, the phone you called was connected, and then went to the hut to talk to the other party. Of course, such long-distance calls were limited to domestically and it was impossible to make calls from foreign countries!

"Sansi, mother's name."

"Ye, Ye!" A conversation between two people came from his ears. A man agreed loudly and ran into the telephone booth. The light inside turned on, and then the sound of conversation came out.

Luli walked to the side of the counter, picked up the city phone book, took out the record book, copied a few lines of words on it, and then turned around and went out. The whole process was no more than five minutes, and some necessary information was already known. After walking out of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, there was a booth on the side of the road. At that time, the city facilities were all made of red and white cement, nearly three meters high, and there was a glass waiting area. The police stayed at the intersection to command traffic. When the work was not very busy, they sat inside and rested temporarily.

Luli walked to the command post of Lu Guo, and a policeman immediately found him, "Spot it?"

"I want to ask you, go to the third clothing factory in Yangcheng City, how to get there?"

Listening to the other party's young man's speech speed as slow as possible, the police smiled and nodded, and when he spoke again, he changed into a not-so-standard Mandarin, "Look..., see... that bus? Just take it...."

"I understand," Luli nodded desperately, "Thank you."

The police also nodded desperately, "Don't let me...you're welcome."

Luli turned backwards, and the police suddenly thought about it, jumped down, grabbed him, and shook his hand repeatedly, "No, no! You don't know... Well, I'll take you there!" The last sentence was very clear.

"That's so thank you!"

The police pulled out a Happy 250 motorcycle with a standby from the post office, let Luli sit in the standby, start the motorcycle till it and rush out in a flash.

There was nothing to say on the road. After Luli looked like a lively street scene, the motorcycle stopped on the side of the road, and the police pointed with his hand, "Here..."

Across the road was a company with the words "Sheep City Third Clothing Factory" written on it. Lu Li was overjoyed and nodded and smiled at the police, "It's here, thank you!"

"..." The policeman said something in Cantonese, waved to him, twisted the handlebars, and drove towards the direction.

Lu Li adjusted his breathing, crossed the road, and headed straight to the clothing factory across the street. In the mailroom at the door, a man was reading a newspaper, and he also looked like a southerner, similar to the educated youth he had met in the business forest. "Dongdong, Dongdongdong." He knocked on the glass a few times.

The man put down the newspaper, "…………”

Lu Li didn't want to guess what he was saying at all. He took out the documents he had prepared and handed them in. The other party took them and opened them. It was a letter of introduction, with the same content: Comrade Lu Li, a revolutionary comrade from the Third Clothing Factory in Yangcheng City, is currently a party member of our commune. Please help me when I come to your factory to work. Sincerely, salute. The bottom is the chapter of Lin Commune, a merchant in Tangshan.

The man nodded and expressed his understanding. He grabbed the phone and said a few words. After waiting for a while, several people ran out of the factory and looked around. He found Luli at first glance, "..."

"I'm sorry, I'm from the north and I don't understand... your Cantonese."

"Oh," the visitor immediately changed into Mandarin. Although his accent was still very heavy, it was no longer a problem to understand. "Hello, morning."

Lu Li didn't know that "good morning" was "morning" in Cantonese, but looked at the sky in confusion. It's morning now. Do you still need to tell me this? The other party saw it and laughed, "Is this Comrade Lu Li?"

"It's me." Lu Li took out his party member certificate and handed it over. The other party took it and checked it out, confirmed it without a doubt, and returned it to him with a smile, "I am the secretary of the factory Youth League Committee. My name is Kuang Jiu. Come, Comrade Lu, let's go in and talk, go in and talk."

Walking into the factory building, there were long workshops on both sides. Lu Li was invited to the office on the third floor, poured a cup of hot water in front of him, and Kuang Jiu sat down next to him, "Comrade Lu, if you come this time, if you ask for help from us, just talk. Although we are from south to north, our revolutionary friendship is not divided into regions."

Lu Li smiled and took out a banner from his leather-making luggage bag and opened it in front of him. The above words were eight words: I miss comrades and are in love with the disaster area. The following are: Thanks to the third clothing factory in Yangcheng City and the merchant Lin People's Commune.

Kuang Jiu immediately stood up, "Oh, this... Comrade Xiao Lu, wait a moment, I'll let our factory director and secretary come over."

Luli was amused in his heart. It seemed that the first step had already gone out, and the response he had achieved was even better than he had imagined!

After waiting for a while, Kuang Jiu rushed into the office with two men, and there were several people behind him, "Comrade Lu, this is Director Gao and Secretary Li of our factory. This is Comrade Lu from Tangshan."

"Hello, hello!" The factory director spoke very well in Mandarin, and took a few steps to shake hands with him, "Hey, we are all revolutionary comrades, it is appropriate to help each other. In fact, we did nothing."

"Originally, we should have come earlier to express our gratitude to the brother provinces and cities that have provided help to the Tangshan earthquake-stricken areas. But you also know that many things have to be started over the beginning, which has delayed the time. It was not until a few years later today. I hope that comrades will not blame us for being inexperienced."
Chapter completed!
