Chapter 563 Eldest Sister 20
Without saying anything more, he immediately went to find Nie Wenyuan. That evening, the three of them had dinner at Guang's house and then drove the oxcart into the city together.
Following Nie Wenyuan's instructions, the oxcart stopped in front of a two-story courtyard. The gate opened, and the deer was carried inside by the people inside and Nie Wenyuan.
About fifteen minutes later, Guang Sheng was called in and met a man in a Zhongshan suit. The man was in his forties and had gray hair at his temples. After asking a few simple questions, he agreed directly: "You will report to the county committee tomorrow and work as a temporary worker. This temporary job can be made permanent, but it depends on your performance."
Poor performance could lead to dismissal; it all depends on whether the young person in front of you knows how to handle things.
That's all a deer can do.
Guang Sheng never expected that he would get such a job. The committee is indeed a good place, but it is not a good place either. However, his wife went to great lengths to get him a good job. If he turns it down, will it be difficult for him to find a job next time?
If you have an opportunity, seize it immediately. There's a saying that goes, "If you miss this opportunity, you'll never have another one." At worst, you can always find another job later.
"Thank you very much."
As he spoke, he placed his backpack on the coffee table in the living room. "These are mushrooms and wood ear fungus that my wife picks every day when she goes into the mountains. They're all dried. If you don't mind, you can keep them to make a soup."
The middle-aged man smiled and did not refuse.
Guang Sheng took the letter of introduction and left.
Nie Wenyuan stayed behind and left about five minutes later.
The three of them then drove the oxcart back.
"Brother Sheng, I have to congratulate you. The county committee is a place that most people can't even get into. You have to do a good job. This guy is from the county committee. He's only forty-one this year. He has a bright future ahead of him. If you know how to get things done, you might be able to follow the leaders and move up the ranks in the future."
Nie Wenyuan really didn't expect that Guang Sheng could hunt a second live deer. The leader was very happy to see the deer, otherwise he wouldn't have arranged for Guang Sheng to join the Brother Committee so readily.
Brother Sheng is quite tactful; he gave the leader about ten kilograms of mushrooms and wood ear fungus, regardless of their monetary value, it was the thought that counted.
Ning Yan was extremely surprised. She just wanted Guang Sheng to find an easier job, but she never thought he could get into the Brotherhood Committee. Although he was just a temporary worker, everyone knew that there were so many lucrative opportunities in the Brotherhood Committee at this time. There were so many ways to make a good living.
"Thanks to you for today's help. Come over tomorrow night, and I'll cook you a nice meal."
Nie Wenyuan chuckled, "Alright, then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law."
Ning Yan was getting sleepy as the oxcart swayed along, so she sat in the carriage listening to the two men chat.
It was past ten o'clock when I got home.
The captain and his wife are still awake.
Upon seeing his son return, he immediately summoned him to the main room for questioning.
Ning Yan felt sleepy and went back to her room. By the time Guang Sheng returned, she was already asleep.
Guang Sheng felt that his wife had been sleeping a lot lately, falling asleep almost as soon as her head hit the pillow, and sleeping very soundly. Sometimes he would make some noise and she wouldn't wake up, looking like she was very tired.
He also reflected on himself twice, thinking that he had always been nagging her and had made her tired.
So that night, unusually, he did nothing and slept soundly until dawn.
The next day, Guang Sheng went to handle the formalities himself, and it took him until the afternoon to complete the whole process.
He specially bought a pound of fresh meat and a bottle of liquor that cost more than two yuan. He had vegetables at home, so he bought two pounds of tofu. The traps he set in the river also yielded some results. That evening, Ning Yan personally cooked, and Guang Sheng lit the fire and prepared six dishes. He invited Nie Wenyuan over, and the two brothers had a good drink together.
Before leaving, I gave him two bottles of good wine and ten yuan as a thank you for speaking up for him.
Nie Wenyuan originally refused, but Guang Sheng said he wanted him to help find a suitable job for Ning Yan, so the young man didn't refuse.
In the stillness of the night, the elderly couple lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) still feeling a bit unreal. "Our Shengzi has already gone to work in the city?"
Wow, I can't believe it. I used to think my son was destined to be a bachelor for life, but now he's not only married and no longer a bachelor, but he also has a job at the Brothers' Association.
The captain thought to himself that his daughter-in-law was indeed blessed, and that she had brought good luck to his son.
Although it's just a temporary job, there's a chance of becoming a permanent employee in the future, and working at the committee is much easier than working in the fields in the countryside.
In the next room, the young couple were also talking about this.
“I’m going to work at the Brother’s Committee. What are you going to do? If you can’t find a job, let Dad find you a different one. I’m worried about you running around in the mountains every day by yourself.”
"No, please don't. I can go up the mountain, but please don't switch to other jobs. At worst, I can carry small baskets on my back and deliver them a couple more times a day. It won't be tiring."
"No, let me get more familiar with my workplace and see if I can rent a place in the city. Then you can live with me in the city, and I can earn enough to support both of us."
If the wife moves to the city, she won't have to work in the fields anymore.
Ning Yan: "...No rush, let's talk about it after you've settled down."
Guang Sheng really took this matter seriously. He wanted to work hard and earn money so that they could live in the city, and he wasn't worried that his salary alone wouldn't be enough to support two people.
He didn't know that he actually had to support three people.
...
The work of the committee is both easy and difficult. Guang Sheng was taken on several business trips in just half a month after he arrived.
When the public reports something, that's when they get their chance to shine. To put it bluntly, he's just a nobody, doing whatever the boss tells him to do. But after a few business trips, he figured out how to get things done, and one time he even brought back a small yellow croaker.
Ning Yan looked at him in surprise: "Where did you come from?"
Guang Sheng whispered in his wife's ear, "You don't know, there are three black markets in the county, and they compete with each other. Today someone reported that there was a big deal in the black market in the west of the city, so our little leader took us there."
During the arrest, three small yellow croakers and 1,000 yuan in cash were found on one of the men.
I left my things behind and let the person go.
Then, they secretly gave those things to the top leader.
Only this one small yellow croaker was left.
Ning Yan's eyes widened in surprise. When did this man become so good at handling things?
"You're really willing to do that."
“I’ve figured it out. As long as I work for the Brother’s Committee, this kind of thing will happen all the time. But I’m just a temporary worker, and I only get eighteen yuan a month. What can I do with that little money?”
"I might as well cultivate a good relationship with that person; maybe I can get promoted."
His current goal is to get a permanent position.
As long as you can stay with the committee, there will be plenty of opportunities to make money in the future.
"Hide the things well, and don't tell anyone."
Before, I wasn't capable enough to give you the same backbreaking labor in the fields as everyone else. From now on, I will work hard to give you a better life.
