Chapter 127: Do the Work Well

After Jiang Lin unloaded the things into the house, he pointed to the five sacks and two jars on the ground and said with a smile, "One of these sacks contains mountain products from home, all of which are walnuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, chestnuts, etc., which together weigh about 120 kilograms. The other sack contains potato vermicelli, dried beans, dried mushrooms, white flour, millet, and rice, which each weigh about 20 kilograms.

These two bags were exchanged for you by my mother when she was exchanging things for Haozi and the others. The last three bags are things my parents asked me to bring to you. One bag contains melon seeds, peanuts, dates, soybeans, and mung beans, each weighing about 30 kilograms. There are also two cans of honey.

A bag of rice, millet, flour, and red beans, also 30 kilograms,

The last bag contained bacon, dried beans, dried mushrooms, and vermicelli, also weighing 35 kilograms.

These two jars contain salted eggs that my mother prepared for you. One jar contains chicken eggs, about a hundred in total, and the other contains duck eggs, seventy-five in total.

These things are easier to get over there than here. The brigade just distributed some grain, so every household has some. We can exchange a little, and my dad can buy some with the brigade. These things aren't too eye-catching."

Grandma Jiang nodded. "It will take a long time to eat so much food. Oh, right, I just heard you say that your mother exchanged things for Haozi. Didn't they go back in the next two days? Why did you ask your mother to exchange things for them?"

When Jiang Hao heard this, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't told his grandparents about finding a job here. He scratched his head awkwardly and said with a playful smile, "Lolo and I met someone a few days ago who introduced us to finding a job at a machinery factory. I thought it was a great opportunity, so we decided to tell you after we've got the job. My third brother also came here to get our luggage and household registration."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang said thoughtfully, "There have indeed been rumors in our factory recently that many positions will be replaced. Some positions here are not taken over by family members but sold. I plan to find a good person here. I will let you know when the news is confirmed. I didn't expect you to have such a wide range of connections."

Grandma Jiang was very happy to hear that Shi Luo and Jiang Hao had found jobs and were going to stay in the residence. "No matter what, finding a job is a good thing. And the three boys are here today. Let's go out for dinner. Well, to celebrate this great thing, grandma will treat us today."

Jiang Hao held up two fingers, waved them at Jiang Lin, and said, "Third brother, grandma's treating us today, let's go eat some roast duck. We need to order at least two for everyone."

Old Master Jiang rolled his eyes at the funny Jiang Hao and said, "You are really promising. You think you are rich just by eating roast duck. When there is a chance in the future, I will treat you to Lao Mo's."

Jiang Hao: "Grandpa, you have to keep your word. Anyway, I will stay here from now on, and there will definitely be plenty of opportunities."

Mrs. Jiang said with a smile, "Alright, alright, let's go now. If you're any later, forget about roast duck. You won't be able to eat duck feathers."

The group went to Bianyifang, after all, it was close to the courtyard and there was a bus. After eating, Grandpa Jiang wanted to take Grandma Jiang to see a movie, so he left first. Jiang Hao bought four more roast ducks at Bianyifang before leaving.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to buy more, but the restaurant won’t sell it to him.

Jiang Lin looked at the roast duck in his hand and said, "When the time comes, I'll give one to my parents and one to my eldest sister's family. We four brothers will each get half a duck, so these four will be just right."

When he arrived at Luo's house, Jiang Lin didn't stay long. He loaded the things Jiang Hao bought into the car and drove to the food factory. There was no other way because Jiang Lin's colleague who came with him was still working on the inventory. It was a good time to go over and take a look. He could load the goods directly into the car tomorrow morning, which would be fast.

The next day, Jiang Hao and Shi Luo took the money and various necessary documents and went to the machinery factory to find Uncle Qian. When they arrived at the guard room, the two people who were selling their jobs were also waiting there.

Seeing someone coming, the four of them greeted Uncle Qian and went straight into the factory.

Walking to a deserted corner, Jiang Hao took out two envelopes from his pocket and handed them to the two men. "There are 500 yuan and some bills in it. You can all count the money and the bills. I calculated the bills at a 30% discount from the black market price. You know that bills are difficult to exchange nationwide, so we didn't underestimate them."

The two took the envelope, counted the money, and carefully examined the amounts and dates on the various bills. The man from the accounting department nodded and said, "That's enough. I've been looking for ways to exchange bills a lot recently, so I know the price. What you gave me is already a lot, and most of it is food coupons and industrial coupons. It's really good."

The man from the factory committee also put the envelope into his coat pocket with a smile on his face. "Okay, let's go and do the formalities."

Shi Luo and the factory committee went directly to the factory to transfer their work relationship, and then they just had to handle the food relationship and household registration.

Shi Luo was waiting for Jiang Hao, who was still taking an exam, at the door of the accounting office with his work ID.

After about an hour, Jiang Hao slowly came out and waved his work ID at Shi Luo. "I've finished it here. You can come to work directly in three days. How about you?"

Shi Luo squinted his eyes and said, "Same, I will also start work in three days."

The two of them went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a bottle of Moutai to send to Uncle Qian before going home.
