Before leaving, Xu Xiangyang gave Wang Xiumin another thirty yuan. Seeing that her belly was getting bigger, she couldn't not eat good food, could she?
Wang Xiumin wanted to decline, but seeing her pregnant belly, she knew she shouldn't be coy at this time, so she accepted it.
By the time Xu Xiangyang returned to the city, it was almost time for him to go to work.
He rushed to the office, where Qian Wenqing was the only one present.
"When did you get back?" he greeted.
When Qian Wenqing saw him arrive, he said, "I just finished my vacation yesterday, which happened to coincide with the weekend."
Normally, I get two days off after a trip, without fail.
However, if you can get two days off, and then it's the weekend, then you can get three days off.
If your rest day falls on the weekend, we won't extend it for you.
Xu Xiangyang looked around curiously, but no one else was there. "Where are Master Chen and the others? It's past their working hours."
They usually arrive early, I don't know why they haven't come yet today.
Qian Wenqing said, "Master Chen and Master Zhang have both gone out to work, so now it's just the two of us here keeping watch."
He arrived early, so he knew about it.
Xu Xiangyang didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, he couldn't drive, and if the factory needed a car, it would probably be Qian Wenqing who went.
After the two had lunch, Xu Xiangyang was called away by Director Yang.
He was a little puzzled. Last time, he was asked to take notes in place of the secretary. He hoped that this time he wouldn't be asked to be the secretary.
Master Chen mentioned it to him once before, and he still has some psychological trauma from it.
However, even if Director Yang wanted him to be his secretary, he couldn't agree.
When he arrived at Director Yang's office, he saw that Director Yang was the only person in the room.
"Xiao Xu is here." He gestured for Xu Xiangyang to sit down, then placed the documents on the table.
Xu Xiangyang was curious about the purpose of his summons, so he asked, "Director Yang, is there something you need me for?"
Director Yang nodded and said, "We don't have many idle people in our unit. I'm going on a business trip in a couple of days, so I'd like you to come with me. Of course, the allowance won't be small either."
On business trip? !
Xu Xiangyang wanted to refuse right away. After all, he would be away for several days, and he would have to spend those days with Director Yang. Wouldn't that be torture?
But Director Yang is right. Apart from himself, there are probably not many idle people in the unit.
In their unit, each position has several people, and each person has their own tasks.
Someone like Xu Xiangyang, who doesn't usually drive, is a very idle person.
"Um... Director Yang, may I ask where we're going on this business trip, and how many days?" He could only ask for clarification first.
After all, at this point you have no choice but to agree; whatever your boss tells you to do, you have to do.
Director Yang didn't hide anything and said, "I'm just going to Shancheng to discuss some work-related matters."
Having said that, he didn't say anything more.
Xu Xiangyang thought to himself, "This is the same as saying nothing at all..."
"Okay, when do we leave?" he asked.
After finishing his conversation with Director Yang, Xu Xiangyang returned to his office.
There's no other way; I have to go on this business trip too.
The bureau chief has spoken, and he, a mere employee, has no choice but to obey.
Xu Xiangyang packed his things after getting off work, and they set off in the next couple of days, which will take about a week.
He didn't ask for the exact time, but the journey was so long that it would take two days for a round trip, and there were other things to do.
Two days later, Xu Xiangyang set off with Director Yang.
This was just the beginning; Xu Xiangyang only truly regretted it later.
Two people were eating meager meals on the train, and such a high-ranking official was sitting in a hard seat!
Not only were there no soft sleeper berths, but we couldn't even get a hard sleeper berth.
Remembering Director Yang's character, Xu Xiangyang held back...
They don't use any of the country's resources; they are good comrades with a fine tradition of hard work.
But the food was terrible! I couldn't understand the saying "a poor family travels with extravagance."
Perhaps because he's been living a good life lately, Xu Xiangyang can't even eat cornbread anymore.
Even when I go back to my hometown, I have to add some wheat flour to the flatbread, otherwise it will be too hard.
He was in a really bad mood. He persevered for two days until he arrived at his destination. Director Yang didn't give him any time to rest. The two of them went directly to the grain bureau in the mountain city.
Another day passed, and apart from having a meal at the grain bureau, the two of them didn't eat a second meal after returning to the state-run hotel.
Xu Xiangyang thought they would be staying in a dormitory today, but he didn't expect that they would be given two single rooms.
However, he later learned that this was arranged by Shancheng; otherwise, Director Yang really wanted to have him stay in a dormitory.
Director Yang glanced at the time and said, "Let's go downstairs for lunch. We have to go somewhere else tomorrow morning."
Xu Xiangyang quickly waved his hand in refusal; he had already given up all hope of having dinner.
so……
"Director Yang, I'm too tired and have no appetite. Why don't you go eat? I'm going to sleep now." He pretended to be in a bad mood, since the things in his space were now considered delicacies.
He couldn't wait to go into the space to replenish his nutrition. Having dinner with Director Yang? Maybe he should pass.
Xu Xiangyang felt genuine sympathy for Director Yang's family. He guessed they probably didn't eat much at home. It must have been really tough for them.
Seeing that he was indeed in a bad mood, Director Yang hesitated and asked, "How about I bring you a copy?"
After all, he trained them; if they get sick, it will be difficult to manage.
Xu Xiangyang simply said no, and then sent the person away.
After locking the door and turning off the lights, I entered the space.
After he took a shower and ate dinner, he felt like he had come back to life.
It's normal to suffer a little when you're away from home, but this is unusual.
Xu Xiangyang sighed; this was really bad luck.
After spending two days in the mountain city, Director Yang finally finished his business.
He finally gave Xu Xiangyang a day off, letting him rest for half a day, and the two of them had to go back tomorrow.
The reason they didn't go back today is because there were no more buses available; otherwise, they would have left today.
Xu Xiangyang wandered around for half a day, bought some things, and then came to a port. The black market was not far from the sea, so it took him some time to get there.
He watched the busy figures, his eyes landing on a large ship.
This ship is heading to Hong Kong and has a lot of cargo on board.
As for how he knew the destination, it was because he overheard the porters talking.
There's only one trip a month, and each round trip takes a month.
Although the distance wasn't far, the ship wasn't moving very fast.
After watching for a while, Xu Xiangyang stubbed out his cigarette and went back to the state-run hotel.
This business trip is now over, but he has new ideas.
However, this matter needs to be considered carefully.
Director Yang had already arranged the train tickets, and the two of them took the train back the next morning.
Xu Xiangyang thought to himself, "I'm never going on a business trip with Director Yang again; it's too much of a hassle."
