One of the major events in the Lin family recently is that their eldest daughter has been accepted into a publicity position at a machinery factory in the provincial capital.
At this time, high school only lasts for two years, and my daughter has been graduating for almost a year. She has been anxious about finding a job.
The office positions at the food factory were full, and the publicity department had Song Meili and a few educated youths, which was enough.
Lin Yu believes that Da Niu should go to a place that is more suitable for her.
She hasn't really had any contact with society yet, so Lin Yu prefers to let her go out and explore.
She was given a task: to take a job exam in the county or provincial capital.
For this reason, Lin Yu also asked a few acquaintances in the commune to help keep an eye out.
Unfortunately, the factories in the county town are currently at full capacity.
At that time, it was very difficult for urban youth to find employment; otherwise, so many people would not have gone to the countryside to share the burden with the city.
Even if some factories have vacant positions, they prioritize giving them to the families of factory employees.
Or some people might transfer their jobs to their children or relatives.
The Lin family has no such relatives.
Wang Zhaodi was very worried about this and often said, "Why don't you come and work in the factory? You're so young, you can't always be without work."
But Lin Yu still refused: "Da Niu isn't without work. Her articles have been published in the newspaper several times, and she can earn money on her own."
Lin Yu never felt that making money required working every day and exhausting herself.
People should make money by leveraging their strengths.
Once you understand your own interests and abilities, and what you are suited to do, you will achieve twice the results with half the effort.
The girl was moved to tears after hearing this: "Sister, thank you. If it weren't for you, I might not have made it this far."
She felt that Lin Yu had been pushing her along the whole way, and that she couldn't have done so much on her own.
Lin Yu shook her head and said, "It's because you have the ability. If you didn't know anything, I couldn't help you."
Lin Yu knew Da Niu's personality; she was rather introverted, timid, and very sensitive.
But she has her own unique charm.
Her writing always touches people's hearts, carrying her unique spirituality.
Lin Yu didn't want such a talent to go to waste.
That's why she was encouraged to take the high school entrance exam, submit articles, and apply for jobs.
She hopes that this girl, who is not valued by her parents, can also have her own life.
There's just no opportunity right now, Lin Yu isn't worried, and even said:
"You don't need to think so much. Things will work themselves out. You work part-time at the factory, don't you? You're not just freeloading."
Da Niu is a sensible child. After graduating, she went home and started working in a factory.
She just wanted to go out and take the exam, so she could only be considered a temporary worker.
Wang Zhaodi never wanted her to go out and do useless work anymore, saying that it would be better for her to just become a formal employee in the factory.
They have enough staff in the office, but they do need manpower in the workshop.
The benefits for permanent employees are also better than those for temporary employees.
But with Lin Yu's support, Da Niu ignored her mother's words and insisted on continuing to look for a job.
The news about the job came unexpectedly from Li Dahui's aunt.
Knowing that Lin Yu was looking for a job for Da Niu, Li Dahui, though far away in Guangcheng, still called his aunt Li and asked her to keep an eye out for her.
Aunt Li has a deep affection for her relatives in her hometown and has often returned home to visit them in recent years.
She still remembered Da Niu.
She remembered that the little girl, Da Niu, was well-behaved and seemed like a sensible and obedient child.
After her article was published, Da Niu even showed it off to her neighbors.
Therefore, when Aunt Li heard that Da Niu was looking for a job after graduation, she immediately agreed and said she would let her know if there was any news.
As luck would have it, just two days later, the provincial capital's machinery factory announced that it was recruiting several staff members.
"This time, we are selecting the best candidates because they really need people who can write articles."
Aunt Li called back and said this.
"I think our eldest daughter is perfect for this role; she's a natural-born writer."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu quickly expressed her gratitude.
This news is invaluable. If it weren't for Aunt Li's connections in the provincial capital, they would never have known, given how far away they are.
By the time they find out, the recruitment process will probably be over.
Aunt Li even suggested, "If you're coming to take the exam, just come and stay at our house instead of staying at those guesthouses."
She doesn't have any children of her own, but she really enjoys having kids come to her house to play.
Knowing that she wasn't just being polite, Lin Yu naturally agreed.
This is the advantage of having local connections. Staying in a guesthouse is not good in terms of soundproofing and environment. If someone with a sensitive constitution comes along, they might have a mental breakdown.
Although Da Niu is resilient, a better environment would be even better.
Lin Yu accompanied Da Niu to the exam. She often went to the county town, but rarely to the provincial capital.
This time, I sent my eldest daughter out because she wanted to go out and see the world.
As soon as the two arrived, they were warmly welcomed by Aunt Li, who arranged beds for them, provided warm blankets, and cooked meals for them.
The two sisters were having a very comfortable time at Aunt Li's house.
Aunt Li was also happy. Her house was usually quiet and deserted, but suddenly two little girls came to visit.
One was outgoing and lively, good at telling jokes to make the couple happy; the other was quiet, sensible, and caring.
Aunt Li and her husband wished these two were their own daughters.
In such a comfortable and joyful environment, Da Niu took the exam for the provincial machinery factory.
I was notified of my acceptance the very next day.
The machinery factory has a workforce of over 10,000 people, and many people took the exam this time, but many were eliminated because of their educational background.
Since Da Niu is a high school student, she can naturally stay.
Only she knew how grateful she was to Lin Yu for pushing her to take the high school entrance exam at that moment.
Later, she took a written exam. Over the years, Da Niu has continued to write diligently, regardless of whether her work is published in the newspaper.
Writing a few promotional articles for the factory was a very simple task for her.
She had excellent writing skills, and her words were rich in meaning. She was almost the first person to pass the factory cadres' assessment.
Over the years, the factory has hired too many people who are empty-headed; they desperately need talent like this.
Thus, Da Niu passed the exam without any major incidents and officially became a propaganda officer at the provincial machinery factory.
Aunt Li was even more proud when she found out, and she boasted to everyone that this was her maternal grandniece.
While still in the provincial capital, Lin Yu left Da Niu with Aunt Li to show off.
Go out and investigate the market yourself.
Some of the products from Qingshan Food Factory are sold in the provincial capital.
However, they have been focusing their efforts on other places, so Lin Yu has hardly investigated this area.
She went to the department store.
Generally speaking, department stores are their main sales outlets.
There was a saleswoman at the food counter, fiddling with her braids.
Lin Yu tapped on the table: "Hello, do you have any vermicelli made by a food factory?"
The saleswoman seemed annoyed that Lin Yu was bothering her while she was admiring herself, and even rolled her eyes.
Yes, how much do you want?
