Chapter 47

Early in the morning, after getting up, several people packed up their things and went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county to buy basic daily necessities.

Originally, they wanted to visit Uncle Song, but Meng Mingxia told them that the report of the 715 workers would be today, and Uncle Song was also busy, so the plan to visit Uncle Song was put on hold, and they would visit Uncle Song after Pei Xingzhi and Meng Wanqiu settled down.

The 715 factory is located in a small town under Lingnan County. It was established only three or four years ago, and the infrastructure is still very simple.

The conditions in the town are also average, and many things cannot be bought, so it is necessary to prepare in advance in the county.

During this period, Meng Mingxia left for a while, and when he came back, he actually drove a jeep.

"Second brother, where did you get this?" Meng Wanqiu asked with eyes wide open, pointing at the car.

Pei Xingzhi was also surprised. Meng Mingxia was very capable to get a car at this time.

Meng Mingxia grinned and patted the steering wheel, "It's a friend's. Come on, I'll take you for a ride."

After that, Meng Mingxia took the two of them around the county and introduced the locations of various iconic buildings.

Then he went back to the guesthouse to load the luggage into the car, and drove the two of them away, heading towards the 715 Factory.

Along the way, Meng Mingxia kept talking to the two about the 715 Factory.

"Although 715 is a machinery factory, it has only been built for a few years. The conditions are tough. You should be mentally prepared when you go there..."

Without his parents, Meng Mingxia, as the elder brother, took on the role of parents and kept nagging the two of them.

Pei Xingzhi listened carefully and agreed from time to time. Although the two of them had a little conflict last night, they all knew that the three of them were the closest people here, and Meng Mingxia would never harm them.

Pei Xingzhi and his team were the second batch of workers recruited by 715 this time. The recruits included educated youth, university students from the Workers and Peasants Army, social youth, local rural youth and retired soldiers from the army.

"In your case, you were successfully recruited because Uncle Song and another leader of the 715th Group guaranteed you. I heard from Uncle Song that you should be in the technical department. When the time comes, you can directly hand over the letter of introduction to the factory staff and they will arrange for you."

Another leader guaranteed him.

Pei Xingzhi wondered, "Second brother, do you know who the leader is?"

Meng Mingxia didn't know this either, "July 15 is related to our local troops, and Uncle Song has a vacant position in name. It should be someone Uncle Song knows. You will know later, and don't forget to thank the leader when the time comes."

Pei Xingzhi nodded and stopped bothering about this issue, "Don't worry, second brother, we will do it when the time comes."

The leader helped him a lot, so of course he had to thank him well.

"Yes, second brother, don't worry, Xingzhi and I understand the etiquette."

Meng Wanqiu said while looking at the scenery outside. After the jeep drove out of Lingnan County, it entered a road that could accommodate two large trucks driving side by side.
