The next morning, the captain, along with An Qingbai and Su Mengmeng, escorted the thieves to the commune.
As soon as I reached the village entrance, the villagers saw me and asked what was going on.
Upon hearing that he was the thief who frequently stole from the neighboring village, the villagers deeply hated thieves and all wanted to go up and beat him up.
The brigade leader persuaded him to stay: "He'll be taken to the commune soon, and the commune will definitely deal with him seriously!"
Although the villagers stopped physically attacking him, they still spat at him repeatedly, saying "Pah! Pah!"
As more and more people gathered, the thief began to struggle violently: "I failed to steal anything, and I'm injured! Let me go!"
He didn't want to be taken to the commune; that would be the end of him.
Su Mengmeng kicked him again before he stopped struggling.
Besides, the wounds have basically stopped bleeding. The foot injury was a bit more serious but no longer bleeding. It wasn't a deep pinch; it was all superficial.
As they were leaving the commune after delivering the thief, An Qingbai said directly to An Baogen, "Uncle, I have something to tell you!" He didn't try to avoid Su Mengmeng; he wasn't an outsider.
"What is it? Speak up!"
“I have a job opportunity here. You know my family situation, so I'd like to transfer it to Dongsheng. Are you interested?”
The security guard didn't pay any attention, but what did he hear?
"Are you serious? You're not joking about your uncle, are you?"
"Uncle, you watched me grow up, would I joke about something like this?"
"Uncle, thank you so much! I shamelessly asked for this job opportunity for Dongsheng. This is truly a rare opportunity!"
"Okay, then go back and have Dongsheng come with me to the machinery factory in town to complete the handover procedures!"
"I understand. So, how much are you planning to ask for for this job?"
"I've discussed it with Zhimeng, it'll only cost you 500 yuan..."
Before An Qingbai could finish speaking, An Baogen exclaimed excitedly, "Really only 500? You can't buy a job in this town for that much!"
"Uncle, this is what we discussed. We'll only charge you 500. You've always been very kind to us."
An Baogen grabbed An Qingbai's hand and said, "Qingbai, I really don't know what to say. Don't worry, I'll remember everything!"
"Your decision to have Dongsheng do a good job is the best way to repay us!"
"He has to work hard. If he slacks off or tries to cheat, I'll give him a good beating when I get back!"
“Uncle, the apprentice’s monthly salary is 14 yuan, and the second year it is 18 yuan. If you become a full-time employee, the monthly salary is 28 yuan. There are also some receipts. Please go back and explain this to Dongsheng.”
"Okay, when I get back, Dongsheng and I will bring the money to find you."
"Let's go! Let's get back quickly, this is a big deal."
The three of them rode bicycles back to the village. They rode three different bicycles; Su Mengmeng rode Zhuang Zhimeng's bicycle.
When they arrived, the thief was dragged along by a bicycle. The thief was not allowed to ride a bicycle; he was tied to the back of the bicycle and dragged along slowly.
An Baogen returned home: "Wife, come quick!"
"What's the rush? Are you in a real hurry?"
Tian Cuie put down her work and came out of the inner room.
"How much money do we have left? Give us 500 yuan!"
“What do you need so much money for? What kind of family do we have? You want 500 yuan all at once? We rely on you as the brigade leader, and you only get 20 yuan a month…”
Seeing that Tian Cuie was about to start rambling on, An Baogen quickly told the truth: "Qingbai is going to sell Dongsheng a job opportunity. This kind of good job won't wait for anyone. If you miss it, you don't know when you'll be able to find another one!"
"Really? Dad, you're not kidding me!"
"Of course it's true. Qingbai just told me. Hurry up and get the money out! Oh, and where's Dongsheng? Call him back too!"
"Okay, I'll get you the money and then go call Dongsheng."
The captain led An Dongsheng to Zhuang Zhimeng's residence, where An Qingbai was present.
"Qingbai, Zhuang Zhiqing, thank you so much!"
"Uncle Baogen, please don't be so polite. This opportunity just happened to come!"
Zhuang Zhimeng felt that this was just luck; what was meant to be yours would be yours, and what wasn't meant to be yours couldn't be forced.
"Alright, I won't stand on ceremony with you. I'll remember it all. Just let me know if you need anything in the future!"
"good!"
An Dongsheng stepped forward and said to An Qingbai, "Brother Bai, thanks! I've heard everything from my dad, don't worry! I'll definitely do my best!"
An Qingbai patted An Dongsheng on the shoulder: "I believe in you! We'll complete the handover procedures this afternoon, and you can start work next spring!"
"Okay, Brother Bai! I'll do whatever you say!"
After the brigade leader and his son left, Jiang Yanxia looked shocked: "You got a job, and then you sold it?"
Seeing Zhuang Zhimeng nod, Jiang Yanxia gave a thumbs up: "Amazing!"
