Chapter 156 Luckily You Came



"What do you want to eat?" Huang Qinqin couldn't remember what had just happened when Zhang Yumei asked her this.

Huang Qinqin went through all the dishes she could think of in her mind, and then said, "Mom, I want to eat sauerkraut fish for dinner~"

"Okay, no problem! Mom will definitely prepare it for you tonight."

"Thank you, Mom~ Mom, please add more pickled cabbage for me, I suddenly have a craving for something sour."

Zhang Yumei patted her chest and promised, "Okay, Mom promises to put in plenty of pickled cabbage!"

After chatting with Huang Qinqin at noon, Zhang Yumei returned to her room and talked to Xu Weiguo about the rent.

Xu Weiguo thought Huang Qinqin's suggestion was excellent, so he asked Zhang Yumei and Xu Fang to discuss it. Then he took Chen Ming to complete the onboarding process.

......

Before entering the director's office, Xu Weiguo took several deep breaths to make sure he was in a good mood before knocking on the door.

"Come in."

When Xu Weiguo came in, he greeted the bureau chief with a smile: "Good afternoon, bureau chief."

"Didn't you say this morning that there was a vacancy for that temporary worker position? I'm bringing someone here now to complete the onboarding process."

The bureau chief raised an eyebrow in surprise. He had thought that Xu Weiguo wouldn't recommend anyone, since everyone knew that Xu Weiguo was the most upright and incorruptible.

It's really unexpected that not only have the referrer come over, but they've also brought people over to join the company so quickly.

However, it's good that someone recommended Xu Weiguo, since in this matter, I feel somewhat sorry for Xu Weiguo.

He also helped Xu Weimin stop an arson attack in Chenjia Village. This temporary job is, in a way, compensation for Xu Weiguo.

"Yes, you can just find someone to help him register the information. The person you recommended will definitely be fine."

"Okay, I'll take him to complete the formalities now, so I won't bother you any longer."

Because Xu Weiguo personally helped Chen Ming with the procedures, Chen Ming's application was completed even though he didn't have the brigade's certificate yet.

"Deputy Director Xu, please get the original stamped certificate from the brigade back for this comrade in the next couple of days. Then we can help him get a new household registration certificate."

Xu Weiguo nodded and thanked him, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. Does he start work tomorrow?"

"Yes, you can officially start work tomorrow. However, as you know, Deputy Director Xu, there are no dormitories available right now, so..."

"I know that. If there are no other questions, we'll be going now."

"Okay, okay, Deputy Director Xu, please take care!"

After Xu Weiguo and his group had walked away, the two staff members remarked to each other, "I really envy Chen Ming. With Deputy Director Xu as his brother-in-law, he can get a job so easily."

"Yeah, I just saw that he didn't even finish elementary school. So, being born into the right family is a skill."

"In my next life, I also want to have a powerful and influential relative."

......

After the morning meeting, the department store decided to send Huang Qinqin and her colleagues from the finance team to discuss related matters with the food factory and the oil press.

Then in the afternoon, they were notified at the last minute that another comrade would be accompanying them. They were told to wait for Huang Qinqin and the others.

Huang Jianmin asked in a low voice, "Qinqin, Min-ge, do you know who's with us?"

Huang Qinqin and Zhu Min both shook their heads, indicating they didn't know.

However, Huang Qinqin guessed that it was probably a relative of Manager Gao, or a relative of some leader.

Because Huang Qinqin's ideas and plans are relatively complete, and there is a high probability that they will be successful.

So joining now is a good opportunity to do some work and gain experience, but it won't be too strenuous.

The person who was temporarily squeezed in was Fang Chuchu.

But actually, Fang Chuchu herself wasn't very willing to come. It was just that Manager Gao came directly to the Fang family at noon and mentioned this matter to Fang Hui first.

Fang Chuchu felt she was doing quite well in the warehouse; all she had to do each day was check the orders. It was simple, easy, and didn't require much brainpower. It suited her perfectly.

But Fang Hui didn't think so. Since there was a better option, why not go for it?

Moreover, to put it bluntly, Manager Gao was just there to do a favor. Anyone with eyes could see that Fang Chuchu was just there to be a figurehead.

Fang Hui repeatedly instructed her, "Remember, talk less and work more. Even if you don't work, try to keep quiet and don't hold others back!"

When Fang Chuchu saw that the person who went to handle the matter was Huang Qinqin, she felt even more regretful for agreeing to her brother's request.

Fang Chuchu closed her eyes, feeling utterly hopeless, and thought: This time I'm doomed. Huang Qinqin will definitely think that I'm some kind of person with connections, and that I'm trying to steal their credit.

Actually, quite the opposite was true. When Huang Qinqin saw that the person who had been pushed in was Fang Chuchu, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She wasn't afraid of the leaders cutting in for them; what she feared was someone incompetent who wouldn't listen to advice.

Fang Chuchu, although Huang Qinqin wasn't very familiar with her, they at least knew each other. And she was able to be tricked by her classmate from the countryside and lose her previous job.

Huang Qinqin was certain that Fang Chuchu, like Xu Hongxia, was a rather naive (and somewhat clueless) person. It didn't matter if she couldn't help; she had originally planned to handle it herself anyway.

As long as it doesn't backfire, it'll be fine. Besides, Fang Chuchu's family probably has connections, and quite powerful ones at that. Who knows, it might come in handy later.

Thinking of this, Huang Qinqin smiled and greeted her, "Chuchu, over here~"

"Were you sent by Manager Gao to come with us to the oil mill?"

Fang Chuchu nodded awkwardly, feeling so embarrassed she was practically digging her toes into the ground. She didn't know what to say; she just felt inexplicably guilty.

Huang Qinqin pretended not to see Fang Chuchu's embarrassment, went over and took her arm, and said happily, "It's a good thing you came, otherwise I would have been so embarrassed on the way with those two guys."

"I guess Manager Gao also felt that it wasn't very appropriate for a woman like me to go out with two men, so he specially asked you to come and accompany me."

Fang Chuchu was somewhat dazed after hearing this, and asked with a hint of disbelief, "Is that so?"

Is it really as Huang Qinqin said, that they're worried about the negative impact of a woman going out alone with a man? Or is it because Manager Gao wants to do her brother a favor?

Huang Qinqin said confidently, "It definitely is! Let's set off quickly. We don't know if we'll be able to meet them today."

"If that doesn't work, we might have to find an oil mill further away."

Fang Chuchu didn't actually know what they were going to do, so she quickly asked Huang Qinqin while they still had time on the road.

Huang Qinqin patiently explained to her, "It's about going to the oil press and food factory to discuss cooperation. The leaders plan to add some new products to the department store."

Huang Jianmin and Zhu Min exchanged a glance, confirming that Huang Qinqin and the others had indeed forgotten about them.

The two of them could only silently follow behind...
