Chapter 77 Exam (asking for monthly ticket)

Upon hearing this, Liu Fang and Zhang Qin were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.

It turns out he only has a high school diploma!

No wonder I had to take the internal exam!

"You're amazing. You only have a high school education but you still do this physical work with us." Liu Fang sighed and felt envious.

Those with low education envy those with higher education. Why don’t they go to night school to improve their education?

If they had the ability to study, they would not have given up studying after graduating from junior high school.

Besides, it has been so many years, the knowledge has long been returned to the teachers, so why go to school?

Chen Yi smiled and said nothing. She had just graduated not long ago, so she had the advantage.

After work in the afternoon, she went straight home.

He Mingcheng came back early today and the food was ready, waiting for her to come back for dinner.

Chen Yi put down the backpack in her hand and looked at the dishes on the table.

"Oh, you bought some cooked food." She saw a plate of pork head and a plate of fried shredded potatoes on the table.

The cooked food she bought last time was finished by the two of them the next day after He Mingcheng came back.

It seems that he likes it very much, otherwise why would he buy this thing.

He Mingcheng smiled and said, "Well, it tasted good before, so I bought it again today. Let's eat first, and I'll tell you something later."

Talk about something?

Although Chen Yi was very curious about what it was about, she didn't ask any more questions.

Two people were eating, and usually they didn't talk while eating.

After dinner, He Mingcheng took the initiative to wash the dishes and didn't let Chen Yi do any work.

After packing up these things, the two of them sat on chairs and drank malted milk.

He Mingcheng bought a lot of this stuff and drinks it when he has nothing to do.

"Don't you want to tell me something? What is it?" Chen Yi asked.

He Mingcheng put down the water cup and said, "I will be on a business trip again in a few days. I don't know how long it will take this time. It may be more than ten days, or it may be about a month."

On a business trip again?

Although she was mentally prepared, Chen Yi still felt uncomfortable.

How long have you been back and already you have to go on a business trip again?

But there is no way around it, it is part of a driver's job to avoid these things.

"Okay, I understand." She nodded.

"There's one more thing." He Mingcheng continued, "I'm going there in a couple of days. I heard there's something going on."

there?

Chen Yi looked at him puzzledly. Which side was that?

Perhaps he could see her doubt, He Mingcheng sighed and said, "It's my dad's side."

He really didn't want to mention the He family. The couple left him to his grandfather when he was a child, and he had never had any love from his father or mother since he was a child.

If you ask him to call mom and dad now, he really can’t do it.

Hearing this, Chen Yi came back to her senses, nodded and said, "I understand."

She never asked about He Mingcheng's family affairs, regardless of whether these could be mentioned.

Although they are a couple, there are things they are unwilling to talk about.

There are two different things between saying some things proactively and asking about them. What's more, she has secrets of her own and is unwilling to talk about them.

There is no need for two people to stand there clearly. It is normal to have some worries in your heart.

The next morning, Chen Yi rode her bike to work early. After locking her bike, she hurried to get some work done while it was still early.

She may not have much time in the morning and let others do the work, so she may have some thoughts.

So while you have time, do more.

It was almost time to go to work, so Chen Yi went to the place Director Lin told her to go to, which was a conference room that was temporarily used as an examination room.

There were several people standing at the door, all in their twenties, and they were a little nervous.

Originally, Chen Yi was not nervous. After all, she didn't know what she would be tested on, so there was no point in being nervous.

But seeing that everyone was nervous, I couldn't help but feel nervous too.

Not long after, two people came with some folders under their arms.

Chen Yi stood there with everyone else, watching the two men enter the house.

The next step was very simple. Everyone’s name was called one by one, and then they came out in about twenty minutes.

Fortunately, there were not many people, and it was soon Chen Yi's turn.

Just now outside, she also heard what the people inside would ask.

It's about the things you are good at, as well as your academic qualifications and whether you have studied any major.

Before she could hear more, Chen Yi was called out.

Entering the conference room, she saw a chair opposite the two people, which should be for them to sit on.

But no one said anything, so she didn't sit down.

"Please sit down." One of the women in her thirties said to her.

Chen Yi didn't think any more and just sat there waiting to be questioned.

"You only have a high school diploma, have you studied anything?" The woman looked up at her.

Chen Yi thought about what she could do. She couldn't cook, right? They were in a garment factory, so what was so great about being able to cook?

“I can make clothes, use a sewing machine…” although I may not be as skilled as a professional.

Seeing their indifferent expressions, Chen Yi thought for a moment and said, "I also know foreign languages. I learned a little English before, so I can have daily conversations with them."

It's not just that she only knows a little. In fact, she majored in foreign languages in college in her previous life, majoring in English and also dabbling in French. However, she is not very proficient in both and can only have simple conversations.

"Can you speak foreign languages?" The woman looked at her in surprise, with some doubt in her eyes.

After all, there were very few people who could speak foreign languages at that time, especially after the uproar in the past few years, many people were no longer allowed to learn them.

It is really difficult to find someone who can speak a foreign language nowadays.

Chen Yi nodded and said, "If you know how to do it, you can test me."

Real gold is not afraid of fire. To know if it is true, shouldn’t we give it a try?

Hearing this, the woman smiled and asked her questions in English.

The general meaning was to ask her what she thought about the prospects of the garment factory.

Hearing this awkward English grammar, Chen Yi responded to her slowly in fluent English.

If she wants to be valued, she has to show her real ability. She wants to be a cadre.

The woman listened to her reply in surprise, her eyes full of surprise.

She also graduated from a foreign language university, but the teachers at that time didn't teach them anything, and the foreign teacher left after teaching for two months.

But she still hasn't forgotten how pure foreigners' English is.

The grammar that Chen Yi speaks now is almost exactly the same as that of foreigners.

After hearing her words, the woman didn't say anything, but slowed down.

Then he said, "My name is Ma Li. I am the director of the purchasing department of our factory and also in charge of foreign affairs. Although there are few opportunities now, our factory also did import and export business in the past few years."

Import and export sounds very high-end, but people don’t even like their clothes, mainly because they are too rustic.

It is normal that foreigners have different aesthetic tastes from Chinese people.

Hearing this, Chen Yi nodded and listened to her continue.

Because her knowledge of this era was limited to books, some movies and TV series, she didn't know whether foreign languages were still needed.

She only knew that it was rare to be able to speak a foreign language and be proficient in it.

Please give me a monthly ticket, please.

I've been adding more chapters these two days. I want a monthly ticket.
