That guy is so petty. If you hold a grudge against him, you might never repair cars for the food factory again.
If he offends his master in order to recruit an apprentice, then it's not worth it!
Zhong Wanwan smiled and said:
"We agreed, but Comrade Wang Yinglang is an only child. The New Year is just around the corner, so let him have a peaceful holiday at home. Otherwise, how disappointed would Grandpa and Grandma Wang be? They weren't prepared at all for their son to go to the city to work as a temporary worker!"
"Although his future is better, the old man still prefers his son, especially his only son who is always by his side. Don't you agree, Director Li?"
"Let Comrade Wang Yinglang come back to work after the New Year, so that the two elderly people can prepare themselves mentally!"
Wang Erlaizi... He couldn't be disappointed at all. If he knew that he could go to the city to work as a temporary worker, his mother would pack his bedding overnight. She was just afraid that if he went too late, the other party would change their mind!
However, Director Li was unaware that when he heard about Wang Erlaizi's situation, he completely understood the old man's feelings.
I would definitely agree, since there are only a few days left before the New Year. Even if Wang Erlaizi came now, he wouldn't be of much use.
However, he was afraid that things might change if he delayed, and the old man, unwilling to let Wang Yinglang come to the food factory, might refuse.
After all, their conditions weren't very attractive. Although being a temporary worker in the city sounded good, it was only good in name; the other benefits weren't that much different from those of temporary workers in the commune.
He might be able to fool a young man, but he's not so easy to fool practical old men and women.
Director Li, being cautious, said:
"Come back after the New Year if you want, but let's get onboarding done quickly. We'll go to my office to get it done in a bit."
"I'm not doing this to prevent Comrade Wang Yinglang from coming! I still have great faith in Comrade Wang Yinglang's character. I'm mainly thinking about Comrade Wang Yinglang's future. If he completes his onboarding before the New Year, he'll get a share of the New Year's benefits!"
"After he finishes his onboarding, let him take the New Year's benefits with him. This year, our food factory's temporary workers received 2 jin of glutinous rice balls, 2 bottles of canned food, 1 jin of biscuits, and half a jin of oil coupons. It would be a huge loss if he didn't take them!"
It's definitely better to complete the onboarding process now. Who isn't afraid of things going wrong if things drag on? Plus, you get free New Year's benefits, so it's just too good to pass up!
And so, Zhong Wanwan accompanied Comrade Wang Yinglang to Director Li's office, quickly got her onboarding package ready, and then received her New Year's benefits.
Looking at the things in his hands, Wang Erlaizi felt as if he were dreaming!
Zhong Wanwan spent more than half a month repairing it, so it was definitely not a waste of time.
Because Zhong Wanwan had pieced together the parts to repair the transformer, saving the money of buying a new one, Director Li was much more generous with the gifts he gave her than he had promised before!
What?! 30 jin of non-staple food coupons? Master Zhong and his group of seven worked on the repairs for more than half a month, and all they got were 30 jin of non-staple food coupons? Whose face are they slapping?!
Director Li waved his hand and gave Zhong Wanwan 30 jin of non-staple food coupons, and the remaining people were given 5 jin each.
After all, the others have limited uses, so giving them 5 jin is already quite a lot!
These will naturally not be distributed to Director Li; how could Director Li not understand this rule?
Six 5-jin (2.5 catties) food coupons, ten 2-jin (1 catties) food coupons, and ten 1-jin (0.5 catties) food coupons were handed directly to Zhong Wanwan.
They even had several kilograms of tickets, which was also to make it easier for Zhong Wanwan to distribute them to her apprentices.
When an apprentice comes out to work with his master, it's to learn the craft. Some masters are considerate of their apprentices, giving them a pound or two as a reward. Others are stingy and won't share anything with their apprentices.
Director Li doesn't concern himself with such matters. He only gave so many food coupons because of Master Zhong. How Master Zhong distributes them is her business.
Zhong Wanwan was naturally quite satisfied with Director Li's generosity.
