Starting from the Year 1960

Li Xu traveled to the year 1960. In this era, which he had never seen before and only heard about in books and from elders, the only thing he could do was ensure his family had enough to eat and li...

Chapter 359 Apprentice

Liu Gang glanced at him and said unhappily, "Go away, go away! You're already an adult, but you're not as sensible as my apprentice. He knows to treat us without you telling him. And look at you, you're about to get a new car, and you're so reluctant to treat us to such a big occasion."

"That's right, Old Song, why are you going backwards as you get older?" an old master laughed loudly.

"I guess Old Song is saving money for his son to get married, so he's reluctant to spend it."

Being squeezed by the crowd, Master Song's face flushed and he shouted, "Who said I'm not willing? I'm willing. We've been brothers for so many years, how can I be reluctant to treat you to a meal?"

Seeing him like this, everyone laughed again and kept saying, "Old Song is anxious."

At this time, Director Shen Yuan walked over. As soon as he entered the crowd, his face instantly filled with smiles. "Since everyone is here, I have an announcement to make. Starting today, Li Xu will be a full-time employee."

Hearing this, everyone in the car team applauded out of respect.

After stopping, Shen Yuan continued, "As for the ownership of the new car, we have decided that..."

Before he could finish, Master Qi interrupted him and said, "Don't worry about this. We have already made the internal arrangements."

He didn't dare let Shen Yuan say the name. If the candidate confirmed was Master Song, it would be fine; but if not, would the person whose name was called feel a thorn in his heart?

The others also reacted and echoed, "Yes, yes, we unanimously decided that the new car will be used by Old Song."

Shen Yuan took a deep breath and tried to maintain a smile on his face. "This candidate was decided by all the leaders together. Why don't you guys reconsider it?"

"Don't think about it. If any leader has any objections, let him come to us."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan almost cursed out loud.

Who dares to have any opinions about you now?

Even if there is, no one dares to tell you.

Because everyone knows that industry will continue to develop, the demand for transporting goods by various units will definitely increase.

But there are not many cars in the county, so they have to pay a huge price to seek help from the supply and marketing cooperatives.

In this case, who would dare to provoke a car team that can earn huge profits for the supply and marketing cooperative?

After all, everyone is afraid that the car team will give up...

Shen Yuan then showed an embarrassed expression and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Let's do as you say. The new car will be used by Master Song. Oh, Xiao Li, come find me later to complete the formalities for the regularization. I have something else to do, so I'll be leaving first."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Looking at his back, Master Song said with displeasure, "This bastard, I haven't settled the score with him for the last time he schemed against my apprentice, and now he dares to do this again. Does he think we are easy to bully?"

"It's possible. How about we teach him a lesson?"

"That's a good idea. Now that Xiao Li has been promoted, we don't have to worry about anything anymore. It's time to teach him a lesson."

Seeing the crowd's excitement, all expressing their desire to teach Shen Yuan a lesson, Liu Gang quickly interjected, "You can teach him a lesson, but not today. We have to wait until all the formalities for Li Xu's regularization are completed."

The formalities haven't been completed yet. If something unexpected happens because of this, he will be furious.

The others also understood, so they all nodded in agreement and agreed to beat Shen Yuan up in a few days.

After things were discussed, Li Xu went to Shen Yuan's office to go through the formalization procedures.

Then he took the regularization certificate and went to the street to handle the food relationship.

By the time the street changed his food ration to the driver, it was almost lunchtime.

So Li Xu did not go back to the car team, but went directly to the high-end hotel.

After lunch, sitting in Liu Gang's car, Li Xu said with emotion, "After so much effort, I finally got a permanent position. From now on, I am also a driver."

Liu Gang patted his shoulder and asked with a smile, "Nephew, do you remember what you said you would do after becoming a regular employee?"

"Hmm?" Li Xu was startled. "I don't understand. Please explain in more detail."

"You said you would treat me to a meal after you became a regular employee. Did you forget?"

Hearing this, Li Xu was a little amused and said, "I thought it was something else. How could I forget this? I will treat you and Uncle Xu the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, let's celebrate properly then." Liu Gang replied with satisfaction.

"No problem." After answering, Li Xu teased, "Uncle Liu, I have my own car now, so I won't be able to talk to you every day. Please don't miss me."

Master Song just handed his old car keys to Li Xu. From now on, Li Xu is also a car owner.

Liu Gang rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Will I miss you? I think it's more likely that you miss me. With your chatterbox nature, I'm afraid you'll be worried sick in a couple of days. Besides, we won't have this kind of free time anymore. In a few days, we'll have to be like before, transporting supplies and taking holidays. How will we have time to chat?"

Don’t I know what you are talking about?

Why say such a spoiling thing at such a happy moment?

After a moment of silence, Li Xu suddenly sighed and said, "I feel tired just thinking about it. By the way, Uncle Liu, are our car team still recruiting apprentices?"

"I don't know. Why are you asking?"

Seeing that he didn't quite understand, Li Xu immediately explained, "Although the disaster is almost over, there are still many dangers on the road. In the future, our fleet can't always be deployed in full force. There will definitely be times when we have to transport goods individually. So I think it would be much safer if we could have one more person on each vehicle."

Not every unit has enough cargo to send out a convoy of vehicles.

Just like when Li Xu first joined the company, he often transported goods alone with Liu Gang.

It will definitely be like this in the future.

The most important thing is that it is extremely risky to go out alone, and you may lose your life if you are not careful.

Even though he always had two loaded guns in his space, he still didn't feel safe.

After all, what if you encounter someone who shoots secretly?

After listening to this, Liu Gang thought for a while, then said, "You know what, what you said makes a lot of sense. Right now, only Lao Song and Lao Qi have apprentices on their trucks. We can't just let them go when there's less cargo, right?

If several units come together, it will be troublesome; let me discuss this with the others later, and then report it to the higher-ups."

"Okay." Li Xu then rubbed his hands together and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Liu, if the higher-ups agree, can I arrange for someone to come in?"

"Huh?" Liu Gang was stunned. "You're arranging people? Arranging apprentices?"

"Yes, I have a relative whose family conditions are not very good, so I want to bring him in and let him earn some money."
