"Don't worry, Comrade Qiaoyue, the benefits at our factory are quite good. Once you join, you'll be paid at the fifth-grade wage level, which is seventy yuan a month." Lu Zhengshan had no other choice.
Good technical talents with poor backgrounds were all transferred away.
The factory mainly exports and needs to support the livelihoods of thousands of workers.
The higher authorities have also requested that a suitable candidate be found as soon as possible.
Those who don't understand export trade usually design clothes that are suitable for local wear, while those for export need to cater to the needs of foreign markets.
Shen Qiaoyue had no experience studying abroad, but her family members had returned from overseas. Although they were not considered to have a good reputation, their parents were highly skilled technical personnel.
Her identity will not be questioned.
Shen Qiaoyue looked at Lu Chen.
"If I go in, I'll have to start from scratch too. Perhaps you could let me think about it?" Shen Qiaoyue dared not agree, nor could she refuse.
I can't stay unemployed forever, and the salary offered by Lü Zhengshan is already quite high.
"Comrade Qiaoyue, please consider this: the factory urgently needs some new styles for its current production orders. The local styles cannot be exported and can only be sold domestically. Our original intention in establishing the factory was to do foreign trade."
Shen Qiaoyue knew that the managers in the factory basically had secure jobs.
She wasn't afraid; she just genuinely lacked experience.
Having never worked in either of her lives, suddenly asking her to do a job she's completely unfamiliar with would definitely require some consideration.
“Mr. Lü, why don’t you let me think about it? I’m not familiar with this area and I have no experience in it. Please give me some time,” Shen Qiaoyue said.
Lü Zhengshan was helpless. In fact, Lü Zhengshan didn't have time to give Shen Qiaoyue any time to consider. What he needed now was someone who could paint and design.
"Comrade Qiaoyue, if you're worried about encountering any obstacles at work, I can assure you that nothing will happen to you." Lü Zhengshan patted his chest and promised, "As long as I don't fall, you won't fall either. Go and give it a try first. If you really can't do it, I won't stop you. You can leave anytime, okay?"
Shen Qiaoyue looked at Lu Chen, and her heart wavered.
That factory is the lifeblood of a stable economy. People working there have stable wages, and the managers in the factory all have secure jobs and high status, so there are basically no problems.
After the market opened up, the people in this factory were the richest and had the best living conditions.
Lu Chen looked at Shen Qiaoyue, but didn't interrupt.
It depends on Shen Qiaoyue's wishes.
"Then I'll give it a try." Shen Qiaoyue thought that if what the dream said was true, and she got pregnant, she would need to make a living after giving birth, which would be very expensive. Having a job would be a good thing.
Lu Zhengshan was overjoyed to receive Shen Qiaoyue's consent.
They told Shen Qiaoyue to go to work at the factory the next day.
After seeing Lü Zhengshan off, Shen Qiaoyue leaned against the door and saw Lu Chen.
“If you don’t want to go to work, why don’t you refuse?” Lu Chen saw through Shen Qiaoyue’s concerns. “I will believe you unconditionally as long as it’s your choice.”
Shen Qiaoyue turned around and sat down in the living room, saying, "What can I do if I don't go to work and just stay at home? It's so boring."
Having over a decade of advanced memories, Shen Qiaoyue knew that the hard times would eventually pass, but when hardship came, one always needed to face it positively.
In her past life, she was a housewife, and apart from arguing with Yang Qingshan, she had no value whatsoever.
Now that there's an opportunity to realize one's value, isn't that great?
Moreover, once the market opens up, she will definitely be a senior worker, and her retirement pension will be higher.
Lu Chen pulled Shen Qiaoyue into his arms and said, "It's okay, I respect your choice. If you really can't handle it, just come home. I'll always be your strong support! Even if you go back to your hometown to farm, you won't go hungry."
“It would be a waste for someone as outstanding as me to go back to farming. I will not let you go back to farming,” Shen Qiaoyue said.
Lu Chen smiled, his eyes full of helplessness.
As he watched the people around him leave one by one, he felt a sense of crisis.
Shen Qiaoyue was thinking about going to work in the factory, and she needed to understand what the job entailed first, since there was nothing for her to learn at home.
Shen Qiaoyue took out a piece of paper and began to draw a blueprint on it.
Then I started finding the fabric, took out the scissors to draw the pattern for the clothes, and started cutting.
Sew the clothes together with a sewing machine; this does indeed conform to the style required for export.
She hadn't forgotten her craftsmanship, and Shen Qiaoyue started making clothes for herself again, keeping busy until Lu He came home from school in the evening.
When Lu He returned, she sat on the sofa looking sullen.
When Lu Chen returned from outside and saw her like this, he asked worriedly, "Are your classmates at school difficult to get along with?"
Lu He shook her head, not wanting to speak, her face full of frustration!
"What happened?" Lu Chen asked worriedly.
Lu He reluctantly said, "The school is closed, so we can't go to class tomorrow and have to wait for further notice."
Shen Qiaoyue came out of the room after hearing what Lu He said.
Seeing Lu He's sad expression, she exchanged a glance with Lu Chen but said nothing.
This is entirely within the realm of things.
Shen Qiaoyue poured Lu He a glass of water.
"Have some water."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Shen Qiaoyue sat down and gently patted her shoulder to comfort her, saying, "It's okay. If we can't go to school, we can just study hard at home."
"Maybe it will recover after a while," Lu Chen comforted Lu He.
Lu He nodded helplessly and looked up at his sister-in-law.
Suddenly, she came over, looked up at Lu Chen, and said, "Brother, when did you get back?"
