Chapter 22: Sister, are all our minds as smart as yours?
Along the way, Su Wenchen saw many people taking the initiative to greet Su Wenying and asked curiously.
"Sister, are you promoted to director?"
"Deputy Director of the Personnel Department! However, the old director should have retired in the past two years!"
"No wonder so many people greet you?"
Su Wenying glanced at her younger brother.
“When you have value, you will find that almost all the people around you are good people!”
Obviously, Su Wenying had a lot of emotions during these days.
She has worked in the county hospital for many years and is popular among people, but sometimes things don't go her way.
But after the county magistrate came once, she was transferred to an administrative position.
It seemed as if the world became a much better place overnight, and many people would take the initiative to greet her.
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Don't worry, sister. I will definitely work hard to improve my own value first!"
"At the commune, please try your best to take good care of Jiang Li for me. Maybe I can use this big tree to move up a little bit."
"Uh~, sister, you didn't arrange those thugs on purpose, did you?"
"Get out of the way. Am I that mean? And how could I have known that the county governor was behind her?"
"It's just a matter of timing. I didn't have the opportunity before, but now that I have it, I have to grab it."
Su Wenchen gave a thumbs up.
"Big sister, it's a pity that you don't become a leader. When mom gave birth to you, did she give you all her heart and soul? Otherwise, why are the eldest and second brothers so stupid?"
"Hey, you're so bold now, you even dare to tease your sister!"
As he said that, he grabbed Su Wenchen's ear.
"Hey, big sister, be gentle, I was wrong! I am really praising you. What's wrong with being thoughtful? This way you won't suffer any loss."
In the end, Su Wenying couldn't bear to really do it, after all, he was her younger brother whom she had raised since he was a child.
"Humph, be more careful with your words next time!"
Su Wenying took Su Wenchen through many twists and turns and came to the office in the back.
Boom boom!
Su Wenying knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
After Su Wenchen followed his elder sister into the room.
I saw a middle-aged man who was leisurely reading the newspaper in front of him. After seeing that it was Su Wenying.
He stood up and said.
"Isn't this Xiao Su? How come you have time to come to my place today? Is there something your nursing department needs?"
Su Wenying smiled.
"Director Liu, I am now a member of the Personnel Department. Even if I come to ask for something, I will be asking for it on behalf of the Personnel Department!"
Su Wenying gave a subtle reminder.
The man immediately realized that something was wrong. The other person was no longer the same person he used to be, so he slapped his mouth lightly.
He stood up and said enthusiastically.
"It's my fault, it's my fault. Look, I forgot that you were transferred to another post. Is there anything you need today? Don't worry, I will help you if I can!"
"That's right. I remember the operating room was renovated some time ago. I wonder if any of the indoor thermometers were discarded at that time?"
Director Liu recalled.
An indoor thermometer? What are you looking for?
However, generally speaking, not many people need this kind of thing after it is returned or exchanged, so he is happy to do a favor. If his little girl wants to go to the hospital in the future, she will probably have to ask the other party for help.
"I didn't find any from the operating room, but I did get a few from the cadre ward. The seats have some scratches on them, but if you don't mind, I'll go find some for you!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Director Liu." Su Wenying said with a smile.
soon.
The other party took the two of them to the hospital's warehouse!
Director Liu entered the warehouse and searched around.
Take out the thermometer mounted on a tan wooden base.
There is even a small animal that looks like a horse and a donkey carved on the side of the base.
However, the little animals carved on it were already covered with scratches.
Su Wenchen took a look and felt that the scratches on it were probably caused by the children of some of the hospitalized family members.
Although it doesn't look very beautiful, he doesn't care about it, as long as it can monitor the temperature.
Director Liu said directly.
"The thermometer mounted on it is not broken, but the appearance may not be so good, otherwise it would not be retired!"
Su Wenchen nodded towards his elder sister.
Su Wenying understood.
"Okay, Director Liu, please give me a bill and I'll take my brother to pay!"
"I remember we bought this for five dollars, but now it's like this, just give me fifty cents!"
Then he took the two of them out of the warehouse.
During this time, Su Wenchen also strolled around the warehouse, originally wanting to see if there was any cheap glass that could be replaced.
After looking around, I didn't find any trace of it.
After paying, Su Wenying asked, "What else do you need to buy?"
"Glass! Big sister, does your hospital have any unwanted glass?"
Su Wenying looked at him like a fool.
"I thought you had gotten smarter, but it seems I was overthinking it. You are still the same as before!"
"How could anyone not want something as expensive as glass? Usually the ones that are replaced are the ones that are in very bad shape."
"Even if it's broken into small pieces, there are still people who want it. At worst, you can take it back to use as a potato."
Su Wenchen touched his chin.
It seemed like he had fallen into a misunderstanding. How could there be something that was unwanted when things were so scarce in this day and age?
Even the scratched thermometer he bought was kept well in the warehouse even though it was no longer used.
If he didn't have connections, he probably wouldn't be able to buy it even if he retired.
Originally, Su Wenchen wanted to go to the recycling station to see if there was any glass there, but at this moment, the thought just now disappeared without a trace.
The probability of finding something good at a scrap yard these days is probably the same as winning the lottery in your previous life.
"Sister, thank you for troubling you today. I'll bring you eggs after the chicken farm opens!"
"You little brat, the chicken farm belongs to the collective. I'm telling you, don't make a mistake for a little profit!"
"Don't worry, sister. I will definitely pay you. Didn't your internal staff buy the extra labor protection gloves and masks and other things at a cheap price?"
Su Wenchen knew that this was a well-known unspoken rule of this era.
This situation occurs in almost all major state-owned enterprises.
For example, workers in textile factories can usually buy cheap defective cloth, and employees in state-owned restaurants can often get leftovers.
There are also furniture factories, soy sauce factories and the like. Almost all factories have their own unique welfare benefits, otherwise how can employees regard the factory as their home!
Su Wenchen suddenly felt that the lives of workers in this era seemed to be happier than those in his previous life.
The factory takes care of almost everything from a person’s birth to his death.
Companies in later generations only think about passing on the spirit of working hard, and don’t even mention the need for matching welfare benefits!
After saying goodbye to my eldest sister Su Wenying.
Su Wenchen was about to return to the team, but after passing by a state-owned restaurant, he smelled a faint fragrance inside!
My stomach growled unconsciously.
Su Wenchen thought that after buying the thermometer, he still had three dollars in his pocket. How about going to a state-owned restaurant for a meal?
But after taking a walk inside.
He gave up the idea again, mainly because eating in state-owned restaurants required food stamps. If he used his limited money to exchange for food stamps and then ate there, he would have to spend most of the money to buy a meal.
So it’s better to buy some fine grains and eat them for a few more days.
I have been eating only steamed bread that makes my throat sore these days. I really need to buy some fine grains to change the taste.
However, he did not buy it in the county, because food in the city had to be purchased in fixed quantities with a grain certificate.
Of course there may be other channels, but Su Wenchen is not sure, so it is better to buy it from the familiar commune.
After all, Su Wenchen had been in that circle in the commune before.
He knew all the general tricks.
