Chapter 286 The Secretariat’s Work Is Not Easy



"You're back." Jiang Caifeng greeted them warmly.

"Ouch!" Zhou Lianda slapped his forehead.

"Look at my head. I just passed by the logistics department with Secretary Xia, and I didn't even think of getting him some supplies."

"I'll go." Jiang Caifeng said immediately. She moved quickly and was already at the door while she was talking.

"Brother Xia, Brother Zhou, you two sit down and rest for a while, I will bring you back soon." After saying that, Jiang Caifeng trotted away.

"This girl is so impetuous!" Zhou Lianda joked with a smile.

Xia Weian also said, "Secretary Jiang is lively and energetic like a young person."

Zhou Lianda heard Xia Weian say this, glanced at the door and said, "Secretary Jiang is the youngest daughter of our Deputy Director Jiang."

After Zhou Lianda finished speaking, he sat back in his seat.

Xia Weian: Sure enough, office culture is brain-tiring.

He didn't expect that Jiang Caifeng was actually the daughter of the deputy factory director.

Jiang Caifeng quickly took back Xia Weian's things: a teacup, two pens, and two notebooks.

"The secretariat staff have joined the company, and the factory has provided these. When they are used up, you can apply for spare parts. Brother Xia will give them to you." Jiang Caifeng handed the things to Xia Weian.

"Thank you, Secretary Jiang."

"You're welcome. I've got some hot water. I'll heat the teacup for you later, and then you can drink."

"I can do it myself."

Xia Weian took the things with a smile, picked up the thermos and took a look. There was only half a drop of water left in the thermos. He carefully heated his own pot.

Then he added water to Zhou Lianda and Jiang Caifeng's cups, and finally filled his own cup.

He asked where to get some hot water, went to get a kettle of it, and then sat down in his seat to continue reading the rules and regulations.

When he went out, Jiang Caifeng and Zhou Lianda talked in a low voice for a while.

"What's Secretary Xia like? Is he easy to get along with?"

"I think he's a hard worker."

"But he's very tight-lipped, and I haven't even heard my dad say anyone from our secretariat is coming."

"Why would you suddenly arrange for someone to come here?"

"Could it be related to a high-ranking official?" Jiang Caifeng whispered, "I'll ask my dad when I get home tonight."

Zhou Lianda looked at her helplessly.

"Caifeng, you're young, so you can just chalk some things up to your youthful ignorance. But if you really say something and Secretary Xia hears it, then if something really happens, it'll be tough on us and my brother-in-law, don't you understand?"

Jiang Caifeng stuck out her tongue, "I understand, little uncle."

Zhou Lianda is the brother-in-law of Deputy Factory Director Jiang, but he is the son of Deputy Factory Director Jiang's mother-in-law after she remarried.

He and Deputy Director Jiang's wife have a different surname, and no one in the factory knows about this.

Jiang Caifeng has known Zhou Lianda since childhood, but Deputy Director Jiang had previously warned Jiang Caifeng not to reveal their relationship.

In addition, the Zhou family lived in the countryside, and although he got married in the city, the two families were very cautious when interacting privately.

We occasionally have dinner together during the Chinese New Year and other holidays, and we always go to the countryside.

So, no one knew about their relationship.

I just feel that Zhou Lianda has a good relationship with Deputy Director Jiang, and he also gets along well with Secretary Jiang.

This is also normal interaction between colleagues, and no one thinks too much of it.

At least on the surface no one thought much of it.

The uncle and nephew chatted in low voices for a while, and guessing that Xia Weian would be back soon, they sat in their respective seats and busied themselves with the work at hand.

The work of the secretariat is not easy, and Jiang Caifeng is indeed talented and knowledgeable enough to be able to apply for this position.

On a daily basis, they need to draft factory documents and summary reports, take minutes of meetings, and follow up on the factory director's instructions to see if they have been implemented in various departments.

It is also necessary to investigate the production data of the entire factory, management seals, factory archives, etc.

A lot of things needed to be written down by hand, so the two of them didn't have much time to chat.

Even if there is nothing to do in the factory office, the two of them are busy organizing the relevant documents.

However, the position of secretary is a daunting one to make public. After all, since one is often with the factory director, the relationship must be close, and the director is respected by the entire steel plant.

After Xia Weian came back from getting some water, he saw that both of them were working, so he automatically sat down in his seat and continued to read the rules and regulations.

The get off work time is 11:30 am and the work time is 1 pm.

Before leaving get off work, Zhou Lianda said to Xia Wenwen, "Secretary Xia, is your home far away? If you can't get back in time at noon, I will cover for you." "It's not too far. It only takes about ten minutes to ride a bike. I can be back on time." Xia Weian smiled, greeted the two of them, went downstairs and rode his bike home.

When he got home, Song Qingyun had already prepared lunch.

The children were all standing at the windows of the second-floor living room, looking out. When they saw Xia Weian's car, they immediately shouted, "Dad is back."

"I'll go open the door." Xia Changle grabbed her coat, put it on and ran out. When she reached the door, her two slippers flew away.

Song Qingyun was amused by the noisy fifth daughter and laughed, "Changle, be more stable. If you keep making such a fuss, you might not be able to get married in the future."

Xia Changle turned around and made a face at Song Qingyun, "If I can't get married, I'll marry Lu Lu. He doesn't despise me anyway."

Lu Huailin's face turned slightly red, and before he could say anything, Xia Changle had already run to the door.

Song Qingyun smiled brightly and didn't pay attention to Lu Huailin's expression.

Soon, Xia Weian came in.

"Weian, how was your work this morning? Did it go well?" Song Qingyun asked with concern.

Xia Weian nodded, "It went very smoothly, too smoothly."

Song Qingyun blinked, waiting for Xia Weian's next words with some confusion.

"Do you know what position I work in?" Xia Weian pulled Song Qingyun into the house.

"Go wash your hands first."

"You don't want the children to hear it, so you go into the house and say it quietly, right?" Xia Changle winked playfully, indicating that if they didn't want the children to hear it, then they couldn't.

Xia Zhiyao was so amused that she grabbed Xia Changle and said, "Okay, go wash your hands."

"Yes, second sister."

In the room.

Xia Weian told Song Qingyun about his work as a secretary in the factory secretariat.

"Didn't Brother Gu mean to be a driver?"

"Yes, but when I got there, the factory manager told me straight away that I should be his secretary."

"This is so strange. It's impossible for Brother Gu to change his mind suddenly. If he did, he should have told us."

"Besides, it's not that easy to arrange a secretary..."

"Could it be that Brother Shen helped?" Xia Weian guessed.

Among the people they knew who might have had a say in the steel plant were Sui Chengxiao, Shen Weidong, and Gu Changan. Gu Changan was ruled out first.

"It shouldn't be Brother Shen. If it was Brother Shen, he would have told us, and Brother Sui would have said something too."

"Who is that?"
