The annual task of 3,000 yuan has been completed halfway.
There is no rush for the rest, and Zhang Weiguo plans to go to the countryside to collect some supplies.
See if these supplies can be completed.
However, Zhang Weiguo was not familiar with any of these communes and wanted to find someone to act as a go-between.
Zhang Weiguo thought of Xu Damao. Although Xu Damao was a complete villain, he was very tactful in doing things.
Going to the countryside to show movies all day long, in this era, movies are one of the few forms of leisure and entertainment. It is also a feature of this era, and projectionists are particularly popular in this era.
I didn’t see Xu Damao often bringing back local specialties, such as mushrooms and old hens.
In those days, old hens were kept for laying eggs and people would never eat them. I was able to give the old hen to Xu Damao just because I wanted to watch one more movie.
The movie was originally scheduled to be shown once, but the projectionist was happy and added another show for you.
How many shows are shown depends entirely on the projectionist's decision.
In order to please Xu Damao, shouldn’t you give him some more gifts?
Xu Damao was not afraid of anyone who came to him and took whatever was given to him.
This can also be considered a benefit for projectionists.
It’s a pity that I haven’t seen Xu Damao these days. He must have gone to the countryside to show movies and hasn’t come back.
Zhang Weiguo came to the third purchasing department and saw a man standing at the door of the purchasing department from a distance, seemingly waiting for someone.
When Zhang Weiguo came closer, the man walked up and said, "Are you Section Chief Zhang?"
"I'm Zhang Weiguo, who are you?"
"I'm Xu Damao, your neighbor and the projectionist at the factory."
Oh my god, this is something I brought upon myself.
"It's Damao, why is there no movie today?"
"I just got back last night, and I came to see Chief Xu right after work."
"Chief Xu has just taken office as the chief of purchasing. I came here to see if I could introduce a few people to you. I'm familiar with all the communes," said Xu Damao.
"Da Mao, you are really nice."
I was originally planning on finding Xu Damao, but now he has come to me and even took the initiative to speak. No wonder this guy is doing well and has left an impression on the leaders.
If I could introduce a few communes, that would be much better than going there on my own initiative. Wouldn't that help me build up my network?
"Of course. I, Xu Damao, am the most loyal person in the courtyard. I am much better than that stupid Zhu."
Xu Damao boasts a lot and never forgets to attack Sha Zhu. He must be his lifelong enemy as he attacks Sha Zhu from time to time.
This has become his instinctive reaction.
It’s just that this guy can’t beat Shazhu, and he gets beaten by Shazhu every time. He is really new and likes to play.
"Da Mao, can you really introduce a few people to me?"
Zhang Weiguo didn't quite believe that Xu Damao was so kind.
"Of course it's true. I, Xu Damao, always keep my word."
No matter what Xu Damao's purpose is, this relationship is exactly what Zhang Weiguo needs, and Zhang Weiguo will definitely not give up this opportunity.
"It's a deal then. If you really introduce a few people to me, I'll treat you, Xu Damao, to a drink. Drink tiger bone wine."
When Xu Damao heard that it was tiger bone wine, his eyes lit up. He often visited the young widow's house, but he was very weak and needed some nourishment.
"Chief Zhang, is this really tiger bone wine? Don't play tricks on me."
"Don't worry, I won't lie to you. It's really tiger bone wine. It won't be a problem for me to give you a jar when the time comes."
"It's settled then. I'll contact them right away," said Xu Damao.
"Da Mao, you also know that every section chief has a reception at the steel mill every month, with eight dishes and two soups. Let Sha Zhu prepare it then."
Xu Damao often had special meals for his leaders and knew about this treat.
"That's great. I'm very familiar with many communes, including Hongxing Commune, Zhangzhuang Commune, Shuangshan Commune, etc. Don't worry, Section Chief Zhang. I'm very familiar with the secretaries of these communes."
"Every time we show a movie, they give the most. I'll contact them right away. I won't be back in the next few days. I must invite a few more people for Section Chief Zhang."
"You just get the bar ready."
"Shazhu must cook the food. I will humiliate Shazhu when the time comes."
"Of course there's no problem. The serving dishes are the responsibility of Shazhu and his canteen."
Xu Damao left in a hurry, took the projection equipment, and rode away on his bicycle.
Xu Damao left again just after he came back. I don’t know if Lou Xiaoe is lonely. Should I go and comfort her?
Zhang Weiguo then entered the purchasing department. Seeing that all the buyers had gone out, he felt relieved. As long as he didn't stay in the office, he could at least get some things back.
Zhang Weiguo didn't plan to stay in the office. It just so happened that Zhang Weiguo had two watch tickets and planned to go to the department store to buy a watch.
It is so inconvenient not to know the time without a watch.
Zhang Weiguo came to the department store, found a shop selling watches, and asked, "Do you have any Plum watches?"
As soon as the salesperson heard the word "Plume Blossom watch", she knew that the person was a wealthy person. Plum Blossom watches are the most high-end watches they have, and each watch costs two hundred yuan.
Salespeople these days will ignore you and sometimes even beat you up.
That's right.
The salesperson hits the customer.
If this happened in later generations, such a thing would never happen. The customer would be king, and the customer would beat the salesperson. But in this era, it's the opposite.
Zhang Weiguo spent a watch ticket and two hundred yuan to buy a Plum watch.
This watch costs more than the bicycle.
There are also ones that cost dozens of dollars, which Zhang Weiguo doesn't even look at.
After buying the watch, Zhang Weiguo went to the steel rolling mill. It was already noon, so Zhang Weiguo took his lunch box and went to the restaurant to eat.
I had just finished my meal and was about to eat.
Then I heard the factory broadcast.
"Notice: Comrade Zhang Weiguo, the head of the third purchasing section, completed the task of purchasing five pigs in the first purchase, which improved the food problem in the canteen and greatly increased the enthusiasm of the workers. He is hereby commended and rewarded with RMB 100 and 10 kilograms of oil coupons. I hope that other purchasers will follow the example of Section Chief Zhang, actively complete the purchasing tasks, and ensure the food problem of the workers."
The broadcast was repeated three times in succession.
Zhang Weiguo did not expect to be praised in the notice.
The whole cafeteria was discussing Zhang Weiguo's affairs. The workers hadn't eaten meat for a long time.
The planned supplies for each month are only five pigs. How can this satisfy the food needs of more than 10,000 people?
Usually, you can only see some minced meat in the dishes, and not much meat at all. If you have a good relationship with the person who serves you food, he may give you one or two pieces of meat. If you don’t have a good relationship with him, you won’t see any meat at all.
It is said that you can offend anyone but not the chef. If he wants to stir the spoon for you and only give you half a spoonful of food, you have no way to complain. This also makes Sha Zhu think he is superior.
In addition, he is a good cook, so most people will give him face.
It’s just that this guy doesn’t know how to talk, and often offends people unknowingly.
Otherwise, with his skills, he would have been a team leader and not just a chef who can only cook.
