Chapter 13: The Donkey Pulling the Mill
Cai Gen was on the marching bed, still asleep.
The marching bed was narrow, less than a meter wide at eight hundred, and a few iron pipes supported a canvas, with few points of focus and softness.
Due to bearing Cai Gen's weight of 200 catties, every time he turned over, the marching bed let out a painful moan.
The sound of "squeak" and "squeak" has been echoing in the empty store, and Cai Gen has been sleeping very unsteadily and has been turning over.
He dreamed, and for Cai Gen, who had always had a high quality of sleep, the dream was also new to him.
Standing on the top of a hill by yourself, is it a tourist attraction?
There are no plants, bare.
There is only one huge grinding disc, which must be a grinding disc, but it has handrails like a ship's rudder.
All kinds of colorful thin wires, connected to the grinding disc from heaven to earth, are very complicated, a bit like the PCB circuit board that Cai Gen has seen before, or 8 layers and 10 layers as complicated.
From time to time, various points of light fly into the center of the grinding disc.
There are mostly black ones, very few white ones, and even fewer other colors.
The black one goes into the grinding disc and nothing happens.
The white one goes into the grinding disc, and the grinding disc rotates slightly.
Other colors go into the grinding disc and rotate slightly more.
As the grinding disc turns, the colorful thin lines are pulled, making the dead space a little more vibrant.
Probably because of the lack of fuel, the grinding disc rotates very slowly, very slowly, as if it will stop at any moment and never turn again.
Cai Gen is really like visiting a tourist attraction, the grinding plate is very large, and I walked around it for a long time.
There are also many patterns engraved on the grinding disc with unknown meanings, which shine as they rotate.
After watching it for a long time, Cai Gen touched the handrail on the grinding plate with his hand, which was very familiar, as familiar as his left hand holding his right hand.
With a slight force, or no force at all, as casually as raising your hand and rubbing your eyes, the huge grinding disc turned sharply.
As if there was no weight, the thin wire attached to the grinding disc was pulled at once.
It may not have been a long time since there has been such a large rotation, and the thin line connecting the grinding disc does not seem to react at once.
Then they seemed to remind each other.
"What are you still doing in a daze, moving, you can move, hurry up."
Then there's the whole space, which is full of color and life.
It's like spring is coming, the birds are chirping, the insects are chirping, the grass is poking its head out, the little flowers are showing their faces, and everything on the earth is beginning to recover.
The sudden change startled Cai Gen, and he quickly released the handrail and stayed away from the grinding plate, could it be that he was damaged by himself? Will anyone ask for compensation from themselves?
After waiting for a long time, everything returned to calm, and it turned into a dead sheep again.
No one came over, Cai Gen was a little relieved, if he was to pay for it, such a big grinding plate would not be able to afford to sell the house and land.
I also want to touch the handrail, and then cool it, because that time just now is really cool, just like being able to dominate everything, and the hand reaches out to the handrail of the grinding plate, and it has not yet touched it......
"The spring breeze of reform is blowing all over the land, and Chinese people are really fighting for ....."
Cai Gen woke up, picked up the phone, not a local number, and picked up the phone suspiciously,
"Hello?"
The voice on the other side is very excited, very kind, it is a little girl,
"Hello Mr. Cai, you are a platinum client of our securities company,"
Hanging up the phone, Cai Gen closed his eyes again, trying his best to recall the grinding disc just now.
But just like everyone dreams, they can only remember one feeling, and the details of specific events are very vague.
That feeling is that the feeling of the left hand touching the right hand is very familiar, as if I should have been born to touch the armrest.
Is he a donkey in his last life, destined to grind? Thinking of this, Cai Gen felt bad all over his body.
"The spring breeze of reform is blowing all over the land, and Chinese people are really fighting for ....."
This sales call is very persistent, and when I look at the time, it is 8 o'clock in the evening.
The little girl who is still working overtime in a big city has not gotten off work at 8 o'clock because today's telemarketing has not completed the task!
100 calls a day? 500 calls? The Law of Large Numbers? Twenty-eight theorem?
I am still working at this time, and it is estimated that there will be no bus after work, I should take the subway, the last train of Line 1 and Line 2 at 11 o'clock, and I should live in an urban village, or a basement.
Listening to the phone call so enthusiastically, almost just finished training, just entered the industry, in the mad dog period, thinking that everything is possible, every call is an opportunity for their own efforts to succeed.
Cai Gen thought wildly and picked up the phone,
"Hello Mr. Cai, you are a platinum client of our securities company, and now there are several new stocks recommended to you....."
This time, without hanging up the phone, Cai Gen asked a few words from time to time, and then after 20 minutes, at the end, agreed to think about it, and ended the call.
A little girl in a big city, I can only help you here, although your work has not made any substantial progress, but it can be an effective phone call to accompany you to practice your words.
If it encourages your enthusiasm for your work, it's best to finish your mission early and go home early.
But, on the flip side, is this encouragement good or bad? Cai Gen blamed himself for giving the little girl hope, so entangled.
Forget it, I'm hungry.
Cai Gen got up and saw that it was dark in the store, and he slept for a long time, but there was still no business, otherwise he would have woken himself up.
Hurry up and turn on the lights of the store, and the dark room will brighten up all of a sudden.
The empty dining table, suddenly remembering the words of the flies in the morning, my heart was a little empty.
From the outside, is the house full? Men and women, young and old?
Open the glass door, it's so cold outside, look in from the window, it's okay, it's still empty, Cai Gen is relieved.
Back in the house, Cai Gen saw the car key on the bar, it turned out that his wife had come, saw himself sleeping, did not wake himself up, and he could drive tonight to deliver food.
Come to the back kitchen, turn on the TV, light the gas, boil a bowl of water, and wait for the water to boil.
I suddenly remembered that when I ran to the front hall, the smoke on the table was still there, and the flies were still a little bottom line.
When I opened the cigarette case, there was only one cigarette left, and I took it out and lit it, fake cigarettes are really hard to smoke, especially the first cigarette when I woke up.
Cai Gen didn't wait for the water to boil in the back kitchen, and went to the supermarket to buy a box of cigarettes, which was obviously 7 yuan, and the eldest sister who sold steamed buns in the morning really couldn't say, hey.
On the way back, I saw my own car, parked at the entrance of the community, and felt more comfortable, and I didn't have to be frozen to deliver food at night.
The water is already boiling, cooking the leftover instant noodles from yesterday, and turning the TV to the world on the tip of the tongue.
Along with the delicacies from all over the world, we began to feast, well, on instant noodles.
"You have a new takeout order, please deal with it immediately, you have a new takeout order, please deal with it immediately."
Cai Gen hurriedly ran to the bar and took orders in front of the computer.
Fortunately, it's not a red romantic hotel, it's a residence.
It's a good sign today, it's only 8 o'clock to live.
In the past, other businesses were closed, and they didn't come to live until after 12 o'clock, and Cai Gen was so happy.
