Jian Shu obtained a spatial dimension. Having read countless novels, she immediately hoarded supplies, preparing for transmigration or the apocalypse.
A few years later, Jian Shu had already ...
Seeing that the person who raised his hand was Jianshu, several colleagues nearby started to persuade him:
"Xiao Jian, you have to think it through. This business trip is not an easy thing. It's tiring."
"Yes, it takes a whole day to get to Shanghai by train, and it's not convenient to go to the toilet and get water on the train."
"There are so many people on the train and so many thieves, so it's easy to lose things."
A group of people were afraid that Jianshu had never traveled far and didn't know the hardships of traveling, so they asked him to think it over carefully.
Section Chief Li heard this but didn't say anything. To be honest, he didn't really want Jianshu to go. He was worried about a young girl, so he thought it would be best if a man went. If they could persuade her, he would be happy to see it happen.
"I've thought it through. I've never been out of Beijing since I was a child. This time, I have the opportunity, so I want to go out and see the world. With my colleagues from the purchasing department here, my safety will be more guaranteed. I will be careful on the road. Besides, my dad has a comrade-in-arms over there, so it's a good opportunity to visit him." Jian Shu knew that they were all concerned about her, so she slowly explained to them.
As for that comrade? It wasn't a lie. Jian Yucheng had comrades all over the world, and there was indeed one in Shanghai. And they had a good relationship. For the past two years, every few days before Jian's father's birthday, he would write to him and also send some gifts to Jian Shu.
She must remember this favor. It would have been fine if she hadn't had the chance before, but this time she has the chance to go to Shanghai, and she must pay him a visit no matter what.
"Is that so? It would be nice for you to go then. You're young, so it's good to see more of the world."
"Yeah, it's great to be young. Unlike us, we are all old and too lazy to move."
"Talk to the people in the purchasing department and ask them to take care of Xiao Jian on the way. They're out and about all year round and are very experienced, so her safety is guaranteed."
A group of people understood Jianshu's thoughts and stopped persuading her to think more about it. Instead, they began to care about her safety along the way.
"Then let me ask again, is there anyone else who wants to go? If not, then let Xiao Jian go." Section Chief Li cleared his throat and asked again.
Everyone shook their heads, indicating that no one wanted to go.
"Okay, in that case, it's decided. Xiao Jian will take on this mission." Section Chief Li made the final decision.
Then he looked at Jian Shu and called out, "Xiao Jian, come out with me. I'll tell you about your mission this time."
"Oh, okay." Jian Shu quickly stood up and followed Section Chief Li out.
Section Chief Li stopped at the familiar position at the stairs.
"Xiao Jian, the colleagues from the purchasing department are going there on a mission. They're going to negotiate orders with several factories over there. However, for some reason, in addition to the three comrades from the purchasing department, someone from our finance department must also accompany them."
"But you don't have to do anything. Everyone has their own expertise. Just leave the order negotiations to them. Just follow them wherever they go and listen. You don't need to express any opinions. Just report to me when you come back."
Jianshu understood immediately, listened more and talked less and kept her mouth shut. She didn't need to do anything, just be a supervisor.
Tsk tsk, it looks like something happened at work.
But Jianshu didn't have much curiosity about comparisons, and there was no benefit in knowing too much. She just had to complete her task.
So he immediately promised: "Li Ke, I remember, when the time comes, I will definitely go with only my ears, and only listen, not speak."
Section Chief Li shook his head and laughed, "There's no need to be like this. There's nothing wrong with talking. Just be careful."
"Okay." Jianshu agreed, but he had other thoughts in his mind.
Whether they are in sales or purchasing, they are all very eloquent and must be experienced people. She, a newbie in the workplace, cannot handle them.
It is better to keep your mouth shut and listen more and talk less, so as to avoid a fairly easy task from becoming complicated.
"Okay, you can stay in Shanghai for three days this time, and the task is quite easy. You can stroll around there in your spare time. There are many places worth visiting in Shanghai, but you must pay attention to safety, okay?" Section Chief Li reminded.
With Section Chief Li's words, Jianshu became excited. Although she would have gone shopping even if he hadn't said so, now that her leader had spoken, she felt even more at ease.
So he nodded obediently and said, "I understand. I won't go to any dangerous place."
Having someone care about you is also a kind of happy worry.
"Okay, then you can go back first." Section Chief Li waved his hand and sent Jian Shu back to the office. Then he remembered something and said, "The bills used in Shanghai are different from ours. You can go to the grain and oil station with your letter of introduction to exchange for some on your business trip, but there's a limit on the quantity. If it's not enough, I have some here. You can use them first."
After saying that, Section Chief Li started taking out tickets from his pocket.
Seeing this, Jian Shu quickly stopped him and said, "Li Ke, you don't need it. I have food coupons at home, which are enough for me. You can keep them for yourself."
National food coupons are hard to come by. Basically, they are saved by people on business trips from their own rations, so she was embarrassed to ask for them.
Moreover, she had a lot of national food coupons, enough for her to use.
Section Chief Li was skeptical. "Are you serious? Don't be polite to me. As the saying goes, a poor family is rich on the road. When you go out, you should still bring enough money, otherwise you won't be short of money."
"Don't worry, if I really need you, I will definitely not be polite. I really don't need it. I have national food coupons at home. My boyfriend left some for me when he left a few days ago." Jian Shu had no choice but to put all the blame on Gu Mingjing. If he didn't find a reason, Section Chief Li would not believe it.
Thinking of Jianshu's boyfriend's identity, Section Chief Li suddenly realized, yes, given her boyfriend's identity, he must have national food coupons, so it is normal to leave them for her.
"Okay, in that case, I won't bother with any more work. Just keep it in mind." Section Chief Li gave up the idea of giving Jianshu a ticket and spoke.
"What you said is wrong. It's not unnecessary at all. I should be the one thanking you for your concern." Jianshu said seriously.
If he was worried that she didn't have enough tickets and would go hungry, then Section Chief Li had nothing better to do and felt that he had too many tickets so he had to give them away?
She had to say that she was very glad that Zhao Mingze had found her this job. Not only was it easy, but most importantly, the atmosphere among colleagues was harmonious, without any intrigue, and her boss was upright, protective, and easy to get along with.
If she were to change the environment, such as the personnel department next door, she wouldn't know how to hold on.
After all, nowadays is not like the future. If you don’t want to work anymore, you can just quit and leave. If you are not wanted here, there will be other places that will welcome you.
Finding a job nowadays is not so easy; otherwise, how could so many educated youth go to the countryside? Even if she finds someone to swap jobs with, there is no guarantee what the next job will be like, or whether she will be able to get along with her colleagues.
After all, there aren't many departments like the Finance Department that don't strive for progress and only care about living a stable life. Everything that's happening now is due to various factors.
Working hard to move up is the norm.
I have to say, she is very lucky.
