"Uncle, I came here today not only to bring you gifts, but also to discuss the New Year holiday and New Year's gifts with you."
"Well, even if you hadn't come to me today, I would have come to you anyway. Here's what I was thinking: traditionally, holidays start on New Year's Eve and work resumes on the sixth day of the new year. As for New Year's gifts, you know we're a pharmaceutical factory, so we can't just send medicine. Sending medicine during the New Year is considered unlucky. So, I was thinking, could we cooperate with other factories to see what would be suitable to send?"
Every year when holidays come around, arranging welfare benefits becomes a real headache, mainly because of the scarcity of resources and the scarcity of good things.
"Regarding the holiday schedule, here's what I'm thinking: most of our factory workers come from other places and haven't been home for the past six months, so they all miss home. They also work overtime without complaint. Therefore, we'll calculate everyone's overtime as holiday time and give them an extra week off. We'll start the holiday on the 25th of the lunar year and continue until the 10th of the first lunar month, giving everyone enough time to travel back and forth."
Also, starting next year, we will buy all the land around the factory. We will use some of it to build welfare housing so that people with families in the factory can bring their wives and children over. We will use the remaining land to expand some of the factory buildings and the rest to grow medicinal herbs, so that the wives who come over will also have an income.
When I get back, I'll talk to my uncle to see if we can build a kindergarten and a primary school here, so that it will be convenient for the children to go to school.
Because there aren't many children in the residential compound, they now have to travel more than ten kilometers to the commune primary school to attend school. If a primary school could be built here, it would benefit not only the children in the compound but also the children in the surrounding villages.
Hearing her words, Director Chu was deeply moved. He was one of them. He hadn't seen his wife and children for more than half a year. Every time his wife wrote, she said that the children missed their father. If it was really as Ruan Ruan said, then they could be reunited as a family next year.
"Alright, Ruan Ruan, since you call me uncle, then I'll take the liberty of leading these comrades who have left their homes. Thank you. If you need any support, just let me know, and I'll do my best to cooperate."
"Uncle, no need. Don't you know me? Since you have no objection, I'll go talk to my uncle about this this afternoon. As for welfare, I think we can cooperate with those factories in the city to see what the employees are lacking. If that doesn't work, we can give each person some money and coupons so they can buy what they need themselves!"
In her view, giving money and tickets is the most direct and convenient way. You might rack your brains to come up with something that isn't even what they want.
Upon hearing Ruan Ruan's words, the two factory managers immediately had an idea. Yes, all their hard work in preparing was less convenient than simply giving money and tickets.
"I think this is a good idea, so I'll decide on it. It's getting late, so it's better to finalize it sooner. Xuyang, in a bit, go over this information with the finance department, discuss it, see how much is appropriate, and then issue an announcement regarding the holiday schedule."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Ruan Ruan chatted with them for a while before going home. She still had to go back to cook for Huo Haocheng!
At lunchtime, she shared her idea with Huo Haocheng, and after receiving his support, she eagerly went to Commander Gu's office that afternoon.
After learning of her purpose, Commander Gu expressed his support for her idea. This not only earned her a good reputation but also created jobs for more people, truly achieving multiple benefits.
After receiving Commander Gu's affirmative reply, she stopped worrying about it. Her uncle Fang Zheng told her to go back and wait for news, and she would leave the rest to him.
After running around all day, she was exhausted when she got home. She lay on the recliner, munching on dried fruit, while the rocking chair rocked gently.
"Commander, where are you right now?"
Now that she had some free time, she finally remembered her system. After their parting at the black market, she hadn't contacted him again and didn't know where he was now.
"Host, you've finally remembered me! If you hadn't contacted me, I would have thought you'd forgotten about me!"
The system, which was currently in the mountains collecting its nearly dead prey into its spatial storage, was annoyed when it heard its host's call. Who made a system to this extent? The host just lay at home all day while the system was busy running around for her.
"System, don't be angry. Tell me where you are now?" Hearing the system's complaint, Ruan Ruan also felt that she had gone a bit too far, but she didn't want to either. It was just that those professors and powerful people had been sent to places that were far away and inconvenient for her to go there herself.
"I'm currently in a safe village in Harbin. I just used the medicine you gave me to catch some game, and I also went to the black market to exchange it for some food and clothing for them. That should be enough for the professors here to get through the winter."
Speaking of this, the system felt very wronged. It was clearly a system, and it was she who needed to save people, so why was it him who was suffering, not the system? God, please save your poor system!
The Supreme God said: Everything is up to her.
System: Do I still have any system privileges? o(╥﹏╥)o!!
"Okay, be careful not to be discovered by anyone with ulterior motives." Hearing the system's words, she felt relatively at ease with its work. All she could do now was to save these people's lives as much as possible. In a few years, these people would be pillars of the nation!
