Chapter 708 Helping Sisters Find Jobs
Now that high-yield wheat varieties have been successfully developed and planted on a large scale in the surrounding area, she can now focus her research on rice.
By the end of the 21st century, dryland rice had been developed in China, and by the 22nd century, it had become popular in various regions of the country.
Therefore, Shang Ruoting had a greedy idea. She not only wanted to develop high-yield rice, but also wanted to bring dryland rice to this world in advance.
With an idea in mind, Shang Ruoting took a few file bags to Minister Lu's office.
State your decision directly.
"Minister Lu, I plan to develop the Northeast first. As you know, the Northeast has many paddy fields and they are concentrated. If we can develop high-yield rice seeds, it will surely be more effective than high-yield wheat."
In fact, according to Minister Lu's wishes, he also wanted Shang Ruoting to take a team to the Northeast to conduct research. However, he considered that if he proposed it himself, if Mr. Tan was angry that he took his grandson's wife to such a faraway place, he would definitely be in trouble.
However, Shang Ruoting's own request was different. Even if Mr. Tan was angry, the anger would not affect her.
"Okay, you can pick any people from our Ministry of Agriculture to form a research team. They will all follow your instructions. Don't worry about the funding. I will apply for it personally from my superiors."
When Shang Ruoting saw Minister Lu's performance, she could tell what he was thinking. He wanted her to go to the Northeast, but he was afraid of his grandfather.
Since she was asked to select the talents for the team, Shang Ruoting couldn't leave her good sister behind at this time.
"Minister Lu, you know that when I was doing experiments, Professor Huang and several of my classmates always helped me. We have been working together for several years and have a very good understanding of each other. Do you think it's possible?"
Shang Ruoting didn't need to explain the rest of the words. How could a shrewd person like Minister Lu not understand?
You just want me to help arrange jobs for some of your classmates at the Ministry of Agriculture.
However, the Ministry of Agriculture is a unit directly under the central government, so it is indeed very difficult to recruit individuals on an exceptional basis.
"I know what you're thinking. How about this, Ruoting? First, tell me how many classmates you want to bring along. I'll report to the higher-ups. If they approve, there's no problem with me."
Shang Ruoting also knew that not everyone could get into an organization like the Ministry of Agriculture. Even if Zhang Xiaohong and Xu Lijie were both excellent, it would be useless without some strong connections.
However, she firmly believed that as long as Minister Lu was willing to help, it would not be a problem to get the two good sisters to come to the Ministry of Agriculture to develop together.
At this time, Shang Ruoting had no choice but to shamelessly bring up Mr. Tan.
"Minister Lu, if you feel embarrassed, I will go back and talk to Grandpa. I think asking him for help should not be a problem."
Seeing Shang Ruoting was going back to move Mr. Tan out, Minister Lu was so scared that his face turned green.
If Mr. Tan said a word, Shang Ruoting's two classmates would undoubtedly be able to work in the Ministry of Agriculture. At that time, Mr. Tan would definitely think that he, the Minister of Agriculture, was nothing and that he let his grandson's wife come to him for such a small matter.
"No, no, no, that's not necessary, Ruoting, just leave this matter to me, you just go back and wait for good news."
The first time Shang Ruoting used Mr. Tan's identity to build momentum, she won a great victory.
Coming out of Minister Lu's office, she muttered to herself: Grandpa, just this once, I'm also doing this for the future development of my good sister, please be magnanimous and don't blame me...
Although Xu Lijie and Zhang Xiaohong have found a receiving unit, they are not very satisfied.
Xu Lijie was originally a college graduate from the countryside. She had no connections in Beijing, so she returned to her hometown to find a decent job in the city and then transfer when there was an opportunity.
Although Zhang Xiaohong is a native of Beijing and graduated with a degree in agronomy, she has not yet found a suitable job. A few days ago, her father Zhang Younian used his connections to help her get a job as a manager of a rapeseed store.
Although she started out as a director, which was an enviable job in the eyes of others, Zhang Xiaohong didn't like it very much.
When she was struggling, she luckily received a call from Shang Ruoting.
Shang Ruoting told Zhang Xiaohong on the phone that if nothing unexpected happened, she would be able to take up her post at the Ministry of Agriculture in a few days.
Zhang Xiaohong was overjoyed and asked Zhang Younian to help her turn down the director's job, which she had not been to for a single day, and wait for news from Shang Ruoting.
On Xu Lijie's side, Shang Ruoting also sent a telegram notification.
Soon, Xu Lijie called long distance and expressed her willingness to work in the Ministry of Agriculture.
Sure enough, Shang Ruoting used Mr. Tan to put pressure on Minister Lu, and he became very efficient. Seven days later, he notified Xu Lijie and Zhang Xiaohong to officially report to the Ministry of Agriculture.
