After moving his things, Qiu Dashan insisted on going back overnight. Qiu Yuling tried to persuade him but to no avail, so she had to let him go.
After everyone left, she and Zhuzhu started to clean up.
Anyway, she moved things back and forth many times today, both big and small. Occasionally, people passing by knew that Section Chief Xiao Qiu was officially moving in today.
It was difficult to shirk the hard decoration, so I hired a carpenter. The soft decoration was mostly done by Zhu Zhu.
The things Qiu Yuling chooses are both beautiful and practical, without being too flashy.
The sofa is made of wood, with a flip-up cover and a long strip of space at the bottom where you can store extra bedding and other things.
When closed, the back is a large backrest made of navy blue coarse cloth, with three of them neatly stacked in a row. Not only do they fit tightly, but they also feel very comfortable.
Under her butt was a long strip of wool felt with a navy blue water pattern, which was just the right size and was inspired by her sister-in-law.
She tried it out and found that she didn't need to remove the backrest when she lifted the sofa cover. She praised Zhu Zhu's craftsmanship and said, "Anything we ask Zhu Zhu to do is always done right."
Praise it, praise it! Spider tried very hard to restrain himself from jumping up.
There is a large window on the wall between the living room and the kitchen. Under the window is a small square table with four chairs that can fit in.
There is a simple wooden table in front of the sofa, which leads to the guest bedroom.
A wooden kang that does not require fire, with two sides against the wall and one side against the cabinet separating it from the living room, covered with the woolen felt given by Huang Duoer, is almost suitable.
A little way over by the window, her sewing machine was propped up. On the wall on the other side of the sewing machine, there was a wooden rack for hanging clothes.
On the cabinet wall next to the door is the Spider version of the chest of drawers.
Diagonally across from the living room door is the large, unpartitioned bedroom.
Although this room is large, it only has one window on the narrow wall. It is a bit difficult to divide it into two rooms considering the lighting.
So she didn't ask the carpenter to do it, but wanted Zhuzhu to do the work and make a whole wooden structure, with the lower part to the waist being the cabinet facing the window, and the part above the waist being filled with glass.
However, current glass craftsmanship is limited, and large fans cannot be made. The shelf can only be divided into several small grids. The side near the window is used as her study, and the one on the outside is used as a bedroom.
When I go to bed, I draw the curtains and it becomes pitch black, just right.
In this way, the entire space has both privacy and various functional areas.
It was almost midnight when we finished packing all this.
Qiu Yuling fell asleep, but Zhuzhu was still working overtime because Qiu Yuling had drawn a happy pie for it and said that this was their little space.
This is why it swings its tentacles and produces sparks, and it is reluctant to stop.
Now that most people have moved out, Qiu Yuling repaired the original lock on the door, put away the extra padlocks, and locked the door. She still has to go back to the factory to work.
Nie Xuemin's transfer order finally arrived, catching him off guard when he was most hesitant.
The position of deputy factory director became vacant, and Qiu Yuling originally had a strong competitor, Ren Jianian.
Although his superiors did not give him any explicit punishment regarding the matter of his true or false fiancée, they did criticize him for his lack of caution and sensitivity as a revolutionary fighter.
So this time, Qiu Yuling was not left out again, but was promoted to the second-in-command of Zaohua Comprehensive Manufacturing Plant.
The biggest advantage of having a higher rank in the official rank is that it is easier to formulate government policies.
There is no more embarrassing reporting to higher levels, and no more being constrained when speaking or making suggestions.
Because Cao Qing, the factory director, is almost a figurehead, the so-called second-in-command, whose authority is almost comparable to that of the top leaders in other factories.
Not only that, she is also the deputy section chief of the Economic Development Section of the branch. The two complement each other and make things easier to do.
After she took office, she immediately started planning the woodworking factory.
During the meeting, Cao Qing raised questions, such as wood? Or carpenter?
Qiu Yuling answered each question in a targeted manner, "Regarding timber, the poplar and elata trees at Yaojie Forest Farm have already grown to a certain scale, and Xiangyang Farm, run by Director Pan, is also expanding its forestry business.
Our poplar grows quickly and may reach a certain specification for making furniture in about 8 to 10 years.
Its material is relatively loose, but after proper processing it can also be used to make some medium and low-end furniture.
Moreover, the texture of poplar is relatively straight and relatively easy to process.
As for workers, we can continue to recruit ordinary workers from the public. As for skilled workers, I've already had carpenters train several groups of apprentices, partly funded by me personally. Now that they've become established, it's time to push this forward."
The voices at the meeting buzzed through my ears. "Did you hear that? Section Chief Qiu funded it himself."
"Great justice."
Cao Qing was proud of his superiors and immediately made the decision, "It's settled. We will follow Deputy Section Chief Qiu's suggestion and name it after the Zaohua General Factory's Woodworking Branch."
Now let's circulate this plan and discuss personnel appointments..."
Carpentry is just the most basic job. There are also people with management experience and ability who are responsible for the factory's production management, financial management, sales management and other work.
Managers need to understand the characteristics and market dynamics of the furniture industry and be able to formulate reasonable management strategies and development plans.
No matter how capable Qiu Yuling was, she couldn't extend her reach into every field. This was a demonstration of her ability as deputy director of the Economic Planning Section of the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau, but it didn't mean she had to shoulder the brunt of the responsibility.
In addition to the selection of managers, there must also be procedures for recruiting workers. In addition to skilled carpenters, there are also painters, sculptors and other technical workers.
Qiu Yuling added, "The experience and skill level of these skilled workers directly determines the quality of furniture production, so they must be strictly screened."
This is certainly no problem. Many people have been recommended by their colleagues. For example, the deputy chief of the finance department recommended his brother-in-law, saying, "He has learned a good carving skill, which is just right for him to use."
There are also recommendations for painters, planers and chiselers.
Qiu Yuling added, "Planing and chiseling are necessary, but we also need some basic mechanical equipment, such as electric saws, electric planers, and milling machines, to improve production efficiency."
The meeting lasted until very late, and only discussed some issues that were not difficult to solve, such as who would be the deputy factory director, who would be responsible for production management, financial management, sales management, etc., but nothing was implemented.
After the meeting, Cao Qing asked Qiu Yuling if she had any suitable candidate in mind.
"I do have a recommendation for finance. There's someone called Zhao Xianmin in the Fifth Precinct. I've worked with him before. He's a serious worker and, most importantly, a very strong professional. He's worked at the grassroots level for many years and has a comprehensive understanding of many things."
