Chapter 1369 1371 [The way to get rich]
Turning around, Su Jingxuan's urging questions naturally had no results.
At this stage, educated youths return to the city on a large scale, and dozens of them can come back a day in their Yangjiao Hutong alone. But the job index can't come down to a few in a month, which can be said to be a serious scarcity.
And what Su Meng wants to go to is a good unit like the Children's Palace. Teach children to sing and dance, the work is easy, the salary is good, the benefits are high, and there is a reputation.
Such a good job is naturally even more overwhelming.
And Su Jingxuan has the aloofness of an intellectual, who is not good at giving gifts, treating guests, or building relationships. What's the use of just urging.
Because of this, the work has not been settled for a long time, which makes Su Meng very depressed.
…
In comparison, Xiang Nan and Chunming did a good job in the food factory.
Xiang Nan is smart and Chunming is kind. Once they entered the factory, they got along with everyone.
The people in the factory also like them very much.
Especially Xiang Nan, who works neatly, is diligent, and speaks pleasantly. No one cares about him, from the section chief and director to the workshop staff.
"Jianjun, it's time to eat~" Cui Weihong said crisply while holding the lunch box as soon as the bell rang at noon.
"Here we come, Master~" Xiang Nan agreed with a smile, and then went to the cafeteria with her carrying the lunch box.
After only a few days of working in the food factory, Xiang Nan already found out Cui Weihong's background.
She is a little widow, twenty-six years old this year. I have been married for five years, and my husband is also an employee of Yili Food Factory. Last year, there was a production accident and he accidentally fell into the blender. He didn't even get the whole body out.
Because the two have young children and Cui Weihong is still young, they originally wanted to remarry. However, her parents-in-law lured her with work and asked her to observe the festival for her dead husband.
At that time, state-owned enterprises implemented a succession system. A son can take over from his father, and a younger brother can take over from his brother. Originally, her husband and younger brother could also take over.
But the old couple let her take over on the condition that they be widowed for their son.
Cui Weihong's family conditions are not good. She is the second child of seven children. There are three younger brothers below, because they are poor and have not yet talked about a daughter-in-law, so this job is very important to her, and she can only agree to it.
But the widow had a hard time. Especially for Cui Weihong, who is thin, pretty and naturally charming, it is even more difficult.
A young and beautiful little widow who can't hold on to herself, can't sleep alone, and is unbearably lonely; a young and beautiful little widow who doesn't want to take advantage of it. Even if you can't bear your body, it's good to have a mouthful.
So, Cui Weihong's in-laws are strictly guarding against her now. Not only did he ask someone to watch her in the factory, but he also came to pick her up from get off work in person at night. It can be said that he watched her closely in all directions and without blind spots.
Xiang Nan sighed with emotion when he heard about it.
Cui Weihong is only 26 years old this year. After 40 years, she is not even considered old, so she wants to be a widow for the rest of her life. Really too much.
But the situation is stronger than others, so what if she doesn't want to.
So Xiang Nan felt a little sympathetic towards her. Therefore, when you are a partner, be considerate of her difficulty, and do more work yourself.
Such kindness and thoughtfulness also made Cui Weihong more and more fond of Xiang Nan, and often asked him to have lunch with him. Under the banner of master and apprentice, no one can say anything.
But Xiang Nan knew in his heart that Cui Weihong's thoughts on him were definitely not pure.
…
The two went to the cafeteria together to have a meal, and then sat down to eat together.
Xiang Nan smiled, knowing that she did it on purpose.
If she really thinks fat, she shouldn't eat braised pork. He didn't eat after the beating, so he gave it all to him, his mind was obvious.
You know, in the 1970s, meat was a good thing. Many families cannot eat once a year.
"Master, what will you do if you give me all the fat and turn me into a fat man?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I will not be able to marry a wife in the future, can you take responsibility?"
"Boy, you look like a movie star, and you are afraid that you won't be able to marry a wife." Cui Weihong laughed, "If you really can't marry a wife, I will take responsibility."
"Then how are you going to be responsible?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.
Embarrassed, Cui Weihong hit him on the head with chopsticks, "Boy, don't joke with the master, the master is several years older than you."
"It's only six years older. As the saying goes, a third-year girl should hold a gold brick. A sixth-year girl should hold an extra gold brick." Xiang Nan laughed.
Hearing what he said, Cui Weihong laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth.
But both of them knew in their hearts that they could only enjoy their mouths now, and they couldn't do anything serious.
Otherwise, once the incident happens, it will be fatal. At that time, there will be no room for them.
…
While flirting, suddenly Chunming came over with a lunch box.
"Jianjun, I found a good way to make a fortune." He said excitedly.
"Shh, keep your voice down. You know it's a way to get rich, but you dare to make such a noise, for fear that others won't hear you." Xiang Nan said immediately.
Chunming nodded and lowered his voice, "I passed by the Temple of Heaven yesterday, and there is a construction site over there that is rushing to work, and the slogan is [fight to the death for a hundred days, resolutely complete the combat mission].
I've inquired about it, and they're going to give gifts on New Year's Day, but now it's almost October, and there's still a big gap in the project. Time is tight and tasks are heavy, and manpower is urgently needed. So the leader was impatient and was looking for someone everywhere. I made an agreement with him, let's go push stones, fifty cents a cart, ten days a knot, why not? "
"Why don't you do it?" Xiang Nan immediately agreed when he heard it.
He is short of money.
He is now an apprentice, earning seventeen and a half dollars a month. Although working in a food factory does not lack food and drink, there are also many places to spend money.
For example, transportation. Now he and Chunming still take the bus to work. A monthly pass costs six yuan a month, and seventy-two yuan a year.
But buying a second-hand bicycle in good condition is only sixty or seventy yuan, so both of them are holding back their energy to buy a bicycle. In this way, not only the transportation cost is saved. It's a holiday on Sunday, and I can still ride a bike to go around, which is much better than legs.
"I really envy you guys. You have endless energy and can still find work after work. Unfortunately, I can't do this job." Cui Weihong glanced at Xiang Nan enviously and said, "Chunming, you are so capable. , look back and help me see, is there any job suitable for a **** like me?"
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it for you." Han Chunming nodded.
…
After eating, they took a short rest and the two returned to the workshop.
Just as the work was about to start, the director came in with a newcomer.
"Li Chengtao, come here~" he yelled, calling Li Chengtao over, "This is Cai Xiaoli, you will take care of me from now on."
When Li Chengtao saw Cai Xiaoli, his eyes lit up.
When Xiang Nan and Chunming saw Cai Xiaoli, they couldn't help being taken aback, and then they all laughed.
