397. The Desperate Tuner (seeking a monthly ticket at the end of the month)(2/4)

Wang Xianghong is not a person who has never taken the train.

He pondered: "The price of twenty yuan is quite large, but I remember that the train ticket is valid within four days, right? You can get a refund and exchange ticket within four days..."

These words suddenly blocked the young tuner's path to making money.

The young tuner was a little angry and said, "The train tickets are so tight now. How can I buy tickets on the same day? I bought the train tickets when I first came to Wengzhou. Today is the fourth day. Don't you believe it? If you don't believe it, I'll show you the tickets."

He really opened his bag and took out a train ticket for Wang Xianghong to see.

Wang Yi also went up and took a look.

He hasn't seen what train tickets look like in the early 1980s.

The train tickets these days are completely different from the train tickets he is familiar with. They are cardboard cards, which are longer and narrower than the train tickets he is familiar with.

There are four big words "China Railway" on it, and the words "X) from Yangcheng Jing to Wengzhou are as follows, as well as words "Hard Seat Express" and "Half Child (X)" and so on. The ticket price is 5.2 yuan.

The young tuner explained: "This is my ticket when I came. When I came, I took the ticket. I was full of energy. But I was tired of working in Wengzhou for a few days, so I could buy a sleeper ticket when I went back."

"You see the time. Did I come three days ago? I bought the return ticket at that time..."

"Where is the return ticket?" Dabang also saw his intentions and interrupted him without hesitation.

The young tuner looked dark and said, "Do you think I lied to you? I didn't bring any return tickets, I didn't bring any particularly important things. I have stored them in the hotel because there are too many thieves now. If I was stolen, how would I go back?"

He said to Wang Yi and Wang Xianghong boldly and angrily: "Teacher Wang, Captain, don't listen..."

"Ahem." Wang Yi interrupted his bold words with a strong cough, "So, comrade, don't worry, we won't ignore the economic losses you have caused for our work."

"Duting your work will lead to absent from work. We can reimburse the miner's fee. There are also train tickets. This train ticket can also be reimbursed for a total of 30 yuan, right? If you adjust the piano rhythm, we will reimburse you!"

This is the purpose of a young tuner!

In recent years of reform and opening up, Yangcheng, as the forefront of reform, has been working hard to make money in all walks of life and has ways to make money.

Jobs like tuners are high-end technical jobs, and they earn some extra money every time they go on a business trip.

Generally, this money can be easily obtained because the piano is an extremely precious instrument and cannot be used by ordinary families or units.

The families who can afford pianos are at least 10,000 yuan, and the units that can use pianos are also universities.

No matter it is a household that costs ten thousand yuan or a higher education institution.

So they can all find opportunities to get thirty or fifty.

And their salary is only over fifty yuan!

In this way, the young tuner smiled with satisfaction after hearing Wang Yi's words: "Okay, you can just be reasonable and just be reasonable."

When he heard that Wang Yi was anxious to pay, he said, "Teacher Wang, don't, this matter has nothing to do with us. We went to the warehouse to move things, but it didn't take much time. We moved things when we waited for him. After receiving him, we didn't waste ten or twenty minutes at all..."

In a hurry, he spitted out these words in one breath.

Wang Yi stopped him and said, "Hey, no matter what, he has done a lot of help, and there is also hard work if he has no credit."

"We should have thanked others for helping them reimburse their work losses."

He winked at daring as he turned around.

He boldly understood that he had an arrangement, so he immediately had an idea to choose to calm down and said, "Then I'm going to move things, there are still a lot of things to move this time."

Wang Xianghong also understood that Wang Yi had his own arrangements.

And he could guess these arrangements.

Isn't this tuner just trying to collect money?

OK, let you collect it.

This is on our territory, and our territory is still an isolated island, it depends on where you can go after you get the money!

The piano was temporarily placed in the room in Qiuwei River. The classroom space was too small, so there was really no suitable place to play the piano.

The Brigade Committee Office couldn't let it go, because people often gathered in the office to watch TV. If you accidentally get rid of the piano, it would be troublesome.

The tuner opened the back cover of the piano and started working hard.

Wang Yi said casually: "Comrade, as far as I know, all new pianos have been tuned many times when they left the factory. Why do you have to come to the door to tune again?"

The tuner immediately said: "It's true. You don't know that our piano factory does tune before the piano leaves the factory, but the factory environment is not quiet, there are too many machines and noisy voices, which directly affects the listening and debate ability of our tuner. Can you understand?"

Wang Yi smiled and said, "Yes."

The tuner continued while doing it, "Besides, our factory has a heavy production task now and the production quota is very tight. A tuner has to adjust about ten pianos every day, and there is not enough time to adjust each piano at all."

"Besides, what's the use of adjusting it right then? The piano production, packing, inventory, transportation, and this series of processes have been completed. When the piano arrives in your hands, the pitch of the piano has long changed!"

He asked again: "Are there any tea? I'm a little thirsty."

Wang Yi said: "Yes, yes, soda, I'll get you soda, you just need to tune it well."

The tuner nodded.

He was very satisfied with this treatment.

He is also very used to it.

In fact, every time I go to a client's house to tune the piano, they will be treated with good cigarettes and wine.

No one wants to offend them.

After all, the piano is too expensive, and it is difficult to buy it home if you don’t adjust the rhythm properly, it will be very troublesome in the future:

The manufacturer only provides free on-site tuning service once.

The first tuning is quite troublesome, because some sorting work is required, and it takes two hours no matter how hard it is.

After the tuner worked for an hour and a half, it started to dark, and the wind on the sea became violent and cold.

Wang Xianghong went out to the window and said, "From the weather forecast, there is a stream of Siberian cold air coming. It has already gone south yesterday. It is estimated that our outer island will cool down significantly tomorrow and the next two days."

The tuner casually said, "Then I have to leave quickly. Also, turn on the lights, your Tianya Island is powered on, right?"

Wang Xianghong asked, "Oh, comrade, have you also inquired about our island?"

The tuner put down his tools and smiled frankly: "I don't dare to come up without asking clearly. To be honest, your island is too dangerous. You said that if I came here, I drowned in an unknown way - wouldn't it?"

"So we want to go to islands like you or go to some mountain valleys. We have to inquire about the security here in advance. If the security is not enough, we will not come if we give money!"

"If you have the life to make money, you have to have the life to go home!"

Wang Yi said: "I understand. You have inquired about the reputation of our production team, so you dare to collect our money. You know that the people in our team are all good members who are obedient and law-abiding, and will not make things difficult for you, right?"

The tuner did not answer positively, but said lightly: "I have prepared a case with the Public Security Bureau before coming. I believe that our comrades are unwilling to cause trouble for themselves."

"Well, my work is almost done. Who can repay me for this money?"

When Wang Yi saw that these people were really bold and reckless now.

For money, I'm very brave!

Wang Xianghong went to get the money and gave him thirty yuan.

The tuner put away the money and said, "You two comrades are sensible people. I can't help it. It's reasonable for me to collect this money, right? Now that the reform and opening up is the country to develop the economy, the individuals also need to develop the economy!"

"Anyway, I don't talk much, I can only say this to you--you don't spend this money in vain, but you actually spend less."

Why isn't the flowers white? Why is the flowers too little, he didn't explain, leaving only a meaningful smile to both of them.

This is a riddle man.

Wang Xianghong is experienced in the world. He smiled calmly and said, "If we don't reimburse you for this money, will we break a string if we step on the pedal of this piano in two days?"

The tuner said vaguely: "How can that be? It's impossible, the quality of our factory's products is very reliable!"

But our character may not be reliable...

After receiving the money, he speeded up his work and packed up his piano when it was just dark.

Wang Yi handed him a bottle of soda and said, "Comrade, the meal is ready. Do you plan to stay in the county after dinner or stay in our team overnight after dinner?"

The tuner took the soda and took a sip and said, "No more meals, you can take me back to the city. I will go directly to the city to see if I can buy a train ticket for tomorrow morning."

Wang Yi said: "Don't be so anxious, right? We still want to ask about some things about piano tuning."

The tuner smiled and said, "If you have any questions, please ask now. I know everything and say everything."

Wang Yi asked: "Do you have to tune this piano frequently in the future?"

The tuner said: "It depends on how often you use it, but even if you use it less, you have to tune it at least twice a year, because the humidity on your island is too high - it is too humid, which will greatly affect the maintenance of the piano."

Wang Xianghong was stunned when he heard this: "Tuning twice a year? Isn't it enough to just adjust it once?"

This piano is so delicate!

The tuner drank soda and said, "It's already a small amount of tune twice a year. I think your mountain road is rugged, so I would like to remind you that you can lift it less on weekdays. If you lift it, you have to tune it!"

Wang Yi asked: "The tune is tuned at least twice a year, how do you tune it? I'm afraid there are no relevant talents in our county. Do you have to go to the city to find it?"

The tuner said without hesitation: "I leave my phone number behind and suggests you call me and I'll help you tune."

"I'm afraid there are no talents in your city, and you don't know what kind of virtues those people are. What if you secretly replace good parts for you during tuning? Right?"

This is what fools a layman.
