The blessed Huo Feng started to cook after he got ho. He had agreed with Ji Chundi that she would co every hour or so when he was not there. If she wanted to take care of her all day or even pack als, it would be a different price.
The lunch break at the factory was only one hour, and it took him 20 minutes to get back ho, even though he was riding very fast. Therefore, he only had ti to cook a pot of egg noodles when he got ho. After it was cooked, he first served a bowl to Li Shui and then served himself a larger bowl which he ate with the chili sauce Shen Li made herself.
"I have to go out to deliver goods tomorrow, and I may not be able to co back in ti to cook at noon..."
He was just about to ask Aunt Ji to cook at ho and bring a portion, but Li Shui was afraid that he would say sothing like not going to work, so she quickly interrupted him, "It's okay, I don't feel hungry at all lying down all day. There are still a few pieces of peach cakes your sister bought last ti, I'll eat that. You don't have to worry about it."
When the topic of peach cakes was ntioned, it naturally transitioned to the food factory. Li Shui was still very concerned about her son's first day at work.
"How was your visit to the factory today? Did you adapt to the work?"
"It was pretty good. I just had to take care of the car, and my colleagues were easy to get along with."
After Huo Feng said a few simple words, he paused and ntioned Shu Ping who impressed him the most. "The factory director is only in her early twenties and looks like a young girl, but she is very capable and manages the factory very well."
Li Shui clapped her hands and said with a smile, "Look at my mory. Your sister ca over and ntioned this girl before. She said that this girl is not simple. She said that her parents are gone, and the person who helped manage the factory before embezzled a lot of money from the factory. She found evidence and sued that person. Now the lawsuit is still going on. Your sister said that the person has a lot of cris and it is estimated that he’ll have to go to jail for several years."
"Is that so? That's not simple."
I didn't expect that even though she wasn’t big, she was very courageous. Although she was slightly different from his impression, it was strange that he didn't find it strange at all, nor did he think she was difficult to get along with. Instead, he appreciated her more.
Not all n preferred weak girls. The kind of girl who was gentle but strong, lively, and cheerful was obviously more suitable for Huo Feng, a retired soldier.
"Did you see her at the factory today? Your sister said she's pretty good. I wonder if she's easy to get along with?"
Huo Feng was stunned for a mont when he heard this, but he could ignore the other half of the sentence. Then he nodded as if nothing had happened and said, "She's pretty good, she doesn’t put on any airs and is very kind to her employees."
"That's good."
Li Shui was completely relieved. She thought her son was not bad in terms of conditions. As long as his job was stable, it wouldn't affect him if she was seen paralyzed again. It would be easier to find soone to propose marriage to him later. It would be best if he could settle by the end of the year. After the Chinese New Year, her son would be 26. There was no other young man in the village who was still unmarried at such an old age, except for the uneducated Xu Lai San.
After finishing his al and washing the pot, Huo Feng went to work at the factory. His schedule for this afternoon was to take the car to the car dealership to be inspected.
There was no large-scale car dealership in the town, and the nearest one was in the county. Huo Feng was ready to leave and co back early.
"Xiao Huo, are you going out? Wait a minute, I have sothing to tell you."
Huo Feng opened the car window and stuck his head out, "Sister Hu, what's the matter?"
Hu Huiying said with a smile, "It's like this, I didn't see you go to the cafeteria to eat at noon today, and I rembered that I forgot to tell you, and the factory director blad . Our cafeteria provides three als a day, and the quality of the food is quite good. Moreover, not only can the employees in the factory eat it, but the leftovers can also be packed and taken ho. This not only provides convenience for the employees but also avoids food waste. You must rember tonight otherwise the factory director will say that I’m not doing my job well."
Huo Feng was not expecting the factory director to care about such a small matter. He was very touched, especially by the fact that he could take als ho which helped him solve a big problem.
"Okay, but I have to go to the car dealership to have it repaired now. I don't know if I can make it in ti for dinner."
"Oh, is that so? That's okay. I'll ask the cafeteria to leave a separate portion for you."
After saying that, Hu Huiying rembered sothing else, "Did you bring enough money with you for the repair? For things like this, you can get an advance from the accountant. Also, rember to get a voucher otherwise it’ll be difficult for the accountant to do the accounting."
Huo Feng didn't know that he could get an advance, but he especially took out a thousand yuan in cash from ho at noon, and he estimated that it should be enough. He had already checked the car and there were no major problems.
"Okay, thanks for reminding , otherwise I really wouldn't know to get a voucher. I've brought the money, and it's the sa if I get reimbursed when I co back."
"Okay, go ahead, I won't delay your business."
Huo Feng made a reassuring gesture, started the car, and slowly drove out of the gate. Hu Huiying also turned around and went back to the office on the second floor. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that the young man was honest. If it weren't for his family, he would be married. There was no suitable relative in the family, so she had to compete with Li Yueling to be the matchmaker.
However, Li Yueling's cousin was really not suitable. She couldn't just introduce soone casually because Huo Feng's family was in trouble. At least you had to introduce soone who looked like a good match, like the factory director.
When this idea ca out, Hu Huiying was stunned and imdiately denied it.
"The factory director may not be willing to find Huo Feng with such good conditions. Everyone has their own fate. I better not worry about it."
Shu Ping went ho for a nap after dinner. After waking up, she rode her bicycle to her uncle's house. There was nothing urgent to do in the afternoon, so she planned to wait for her aunt to go to the factory together, and call her cousin to ask if it would be convenient to go to the provincial capital to find him the next day.
Shu Jun ca back from the workshop in work clothes. Just as he sat down and drank a sip of water, the phone rang. He thought it was the director urging him to get the data, but he didn't expect it to be his cousin.
"Brother, are you busy at work in the next few days? I have sothing I want to discuss with you. I'll co to you if you have ti."
When Shu Jun encountered so difficulties, his handso thick eyebrows frowned unconsciously. "I have a report to hand in tomorrow, though it should be fine the day after tomorrow. But you should tell
what it is first so that I can have an idea and not be scared by you."
"Didn't I say before that I wanted to add a bread production line? I think the conditions are quite suitable now. I want to show you the schedule. As a professional, your opinion will definitely hit the nail on the head and get twice the result with half the effort."
It had only been ten days since he last saw his cousin, but he felt that her ability to flatter had beco more perfect. Although he knew that she was just sweet-talking and coaxing him, he couldn't help but feel happy after hearing her.
"Then co on. I know a great master. I'll ask him to give
so pointers. By the way, are you coming here by car? Call
at the station and I'll pick you up."
"No need. The factory just hired a driver. He's a retired soldier and has good driving skills. I want him to drive
there and take the factory's inventory to sell. Business in the provincial capital is definitely better than in the town."
Because this matter had not been ntioned to Huo Feng yet, Shu Ping needed to ask for his opinion, especially after hearing about his mother's situation at noon today. If she couldn't co back in a day or two after going to the provincial capital, it would be a huge deal to make proper arrangents.
However, since he chose to work, these situations should have been considered in advance, and there must be other people at ho to help take care of his issues.
Shu Jun thought it was too risky to drive here, but when she ntioned the inventory problem, he thought that the factory's inventory was seriously overstocked and needed to be dealt with urgently, so he didn't say anything when words of opposition ca to his lips.
The most important thing is that he had seen through his cousin's character. Once she decided on sothing, she wouldn’t change her mind. She would do it no matter what. He was far away in the provincial capital and couldn't watch her all the ti. Even if she agreed to sothing on the phone, it was very likely that she would still disobey it. It was better to say less and save so energy.
"You’re now the head of a factory, and you can handle things on your own. You have to think about many things yourself. Let
know before you co, and I’ll book a hotel for you."
Shu Ping accepted his kindness without hesitation. Anyway, she had always treated him as her brother since she ca here, and it was natural for a brother to love his sister.
"Thank you, brother, then we’ll contact each other by phone."
After hanging up, Shu Ping felt that she should get a mobile phone. Although mobile phones weren’t popular on the market now, the price wasn’t as expensive as when they first ca out. With her current financial conditions, it was completely okay.
The original owner was a student before, and her living environnt was simple. There was no need to use convenient communication tools, but she was now the head of a factory. Even if the business was finalized and she didn't need to contact custors directly, it was hard to say in the future. The most important thing was that it felt very inconvenient without communication tools. What should she do if she had sothing urgent and didn't have a phone?
It was better to act than to think, so she decided to buy it at the provincial capital.
Huo Feng went to the car dealership for inspection and repair. He ignored the boss's words when he thought he didn't understand and wanted to trick him into changing parts.
However, after he showed his skills calmly, the other party didn't dare to have any crooked thoughts.
Huo Feng also crossed out this car dealership in his heart and decided he wouldn’t co again next ti.
Since the inspection was arranged by the factory director, Huo Feng went to her office to report the situation after returning to the factory.
"Factory director, this is the inspection result today, and there is also a receipt. In addition, on the way back, I saw that the oil in the car was running low, so I filled it up privately. This is the refueling receipt."
Two receipts, one red and one white, were placed on Shu Ping's desk. The amount added up to more than 600 yuan. She rembered that she had seen Gu Zhihong keep accounts before. Shi Lei took more than 2,000 yuan for each inspection. Now it seed like Shi Lei made a lot of money from it. Shu Ping even regretted paying an extra month's salary.
"I know. I heard that all this money was paid by you personally. You can take the receipt to Accountant Huang to go through the reimbursent procedures later. You can take it in advance when you encounter such a thing in the future. Our factory is still very humane in this regard."
Don't use people you doubt, and don't doubt people you use. Shu Ping would not sow the seeds of suspicion on Huo Feng because of Shi Lei's bad behavior. It would be unfair to Huo Feng to do so. As long as everything is carried out in accordance with the compliance process, it could be effectively supervised, and it was also a kind of decency for each other.
