The food factory is expanding, and after discussion, Song Youyou and Zhao Lijuan decided to provide 30 jobs for veterans.
Depending on the situation, the assigned positions include production, packaging, warehouse supervision, etc.
Wang Weiguo was once a soldier under Yang Jun. After he was discharged from the army with a disabled arm, he was despised by his wife, who not only abandoned his two children and filed for divorce, but also took away his retirement pay.
There was no other way, Wang Weiguo could only rely on doing odd jobs to support his family, but in this era when normal people are struggling to make ends meet, it is very difficult for a disabled person like Wang Weiguo to support himself and his two children.
It is no exaggeration to say that at one point, I almost couldn't survive.
So, after receiving Yang Jun's letter, although he was extremely ashamed and nervous, he still took his two children and went to the border to seek refuge.
"Captain, I'm not a healthy person now and I'm useless, but if you need me, I'll be a human bomb to blow up the enemy! I just hope you can leave some pension for my two children..."
Yang Jun looked at the once passionate warrior, now in a state of poverty and humiliation, and felt a pang of sadness in his heart. He suppressed his expression and forced a smile:
"Oh, it's useless to say anything. You're very useful! Come, let me introduce you. This is my wife, Zhao Lijuan. She's now the director of a small food factory. Her factory just happened to be short of a warehouse manager. When I heard about you, I remembered you. You were the most organized and reliable person back then."
"H-A warehouse job? Me? The job mentioned in the letter is a regular job?"
Zhao Lijuan nodded, "Yes, I wonder if you are willing..."
"Yes! Yes! I do!"
Wang Weiguo couldn't believe his ears.
I never thought that someone would be willing to give a useless person like him a formal job!
In this era, having a job means being able to live a stable life.
For someone like him who is almost unable to survive, it is like a life-saving grace.
"Madam, oh no, it's the factory director. Director Zhao, don't worry. I will take good care of our factory and make sure not a single stitch is lost! I guarantee everyone in the factory will be safe!"
Wang Weiguo's eyes, which had been numbed by the hardships of life, suddenly lit up.
The words, "As long as I'm here, the factory is here," resonated with me, as if I were transported back to the day I signed up, pledging to fight in the front lines with my flesh and blood, defending my home and my country. But now, the target of my protection had changed to the factory.
…
Many veterans like Wang Weiguo were called in. These people were selected after investigation and were found to have the most difficult lives.
Therefore, everyone who comes here is grateful and treats the factory as their own life.
Song Youyou didn't expect that the recruited veterans would be more useful than she imagined.
Not only do they strictly carry out their job duties, but they also spare no effort in unrelated daily work.
Even a disabled person like Wang Weiguo can do the work of two people, which directly increases the efficiency of the small factory.
The factory is developing better and better, which surprised many people.
Yang Jun was surprised and happy. He used to complain about his wife neglecting him because she was busy with her career, but now he is no longer like that and even takes the initiative to take on some of the housework.
Gu Xiao has always been very supportive of Song Youyou's career, but he didn't expect her to do so well.
The factory was performing well. At the end of the month, the two factory managers discussed it and decided to treat all employees to a meal at a state-owned restaurant.
There are more than 60 new and old employees in the factory. Including the employees' families, there are about a hundred people, so twelve tables of food were booked in advance at a state-owned restaurant.
"Wow, this really is a big city. Even a state-owned restaurant has so many people. It's completely different from where we are."
A group of three people walked towards the state-owned hotel. Among them, a skinny old woman sighed when she saw people coming and going at the hotel entrance.
After hearing this, Qiao Shan secretly rolled her eyes.
He is indeed from the countryside, and this is all his knowledge.
A border county town is considered a big city? Moreover, how many people can be in the state-owned restaurants here?
Halfway through her complaints, Qiao Shan looked up and was stunned to see that there were indeed people coming and going in front of the state-owned restaurant.
Before she could figure out what was going on, she spotted Gu Xiao standing not far away.
"Brother Gu Xiao...Gu Xiao, you knew that today was the day Gu Hongjun and I were getting our marriage certificate, and you were waiting here for me?"
Qiao Shan walked up to Gu Xiao with mixed feelings.
Gu Hongjun? Get a marriage certificate?
Gu Xiao was a little confused.
Seeing that he remained silent, Qiao Shan remembered his previous heartless behavior and her heart hardened again.
She snorted softly, "Gu Xiao, you don't need to persuade me. Gu Hongjun treats me wholeheartedly. We will live happily after we get married. Now is the time for us to have dinner and celebrate after getting the marriage certificate. Please move aside and let us in."
Qiao Shan felt very relieved after hearing these words.
Yes, ever since she had a falling out with Gu Xiao last time, she decided to give up on Gu Xiao, and then chose to marry the man who treated her best among her many suitors.
This man is Gu Hongjun, the deputy battalion commander of the first battalion. Although he is from the countryside, he is devoted to her and has always been with her when she was at her lowest point.
She is not like Gu Xiao, who would despise her rural background and choose Song Youyou, who has a good family background.
She would not despise Gu Hongjun's background, and she wanted to prove to Gu Xiao that they would live happily.
She will be a good and virtuous wife, making everyone envy Gu Hongjun and making Gu Xiao regret marrying Song Youyou, that lazy woman, instead of her.
Gu Xiao was originally standing at the door waiting for Song Youyou, but he didn't expect Qiao Shan to suddenly come over and start yelling at him.
He said nothing, just confused.
But he understood Qiao Shan's last words, "get out of the way", so he decisively stepped aside to make way.
Qiao Shan:?
"No, Gu Xiao, don't you have anything to tell me?"
