408 Good things
happen one after another Secretary Zhou quickly found out the identities of those old men. It was true that something like that happened back then, and they were telling the truth. They
were all overjoyed when they learned that Su Taotao was willing to compensate them with a house and provide them with jobs.
It happened that the son and daughter-in-law of one of the old men also worked in the candy factory, so they bravely asked Secretary Zhou if he could transfer them to work.
Secretary Zhou did not agree immediately, but only said that he would discuss it with the factory director Su.
With this opening, others also had ideas.
Secretary Zhou simply asked them to report together, but stated in advance that if they needed to be transferred, the original positions must be recovered and could not be handled privately, so they were allowed to consider it themselves.
Buying and selling jobs is not a new thing these days. Secretary Zhou did this to prevent greedy people from taking advantage of the situation. He took Su Taotao's job here and sold it there to make money. It is not allowed to eat tea gifts from two parties.
Don't say it, some of them really think so.
Some of them originally worked in better units than Su Taotao's. If they were transferred here, they would suffer a loss, but if they could sell their original positions and make a profit, they would not lose much.
But Secretary Zhou put this matter on the table, so they really have to think it over carefully.
When Su Taotao received the call from Secretary Zhou, she was discussing the renovation of the dormitory building with Lao Gao.
Su Taotao is naturally short of manpower. There is a production line in the second phase that is almost ready for use. After people come here for training and work with the old employees for two months, some people can be transferred to the new production line. As the
saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, which means that it is more difficult to train the first batch of workers. Later, it is a model where the old employees lead the new employees, which makes the operation much smoother.
——"Each family is given a job position. The conditions for this quota can be relaxed. Other family members who need to transfer positions still have to follow the recruitment requirements. Those who do not meet the recruitment requirements cannot be recruited." Su Taotao said.
Secretary Zhou did not blame Su Taotao for sticking to the principles, but highly praised her, so that she would always maintain this work attitude.
After Secretary Zhou hung up the phone, he felt that the factory would become a leader in the industry in the hands of someone like Su Taotao, so he paid more attention to Su Taotao's affairs.
Su Taotao only focused on doing her own job, and she didn't care much about what others thought.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, which is a great day for people to reunite with the moon. Everyone likes to pick a good day to hold a wedding, and even the magpies on the wall are chirping everywhere to announce the good news.
The biggest good thing about the base recently is that Comrade Mo Jiazhe and Comrade Chen Pingguo finally got married.
In this year of scarcity, extravagance and waste are not popular, and no one will give others a handle at such a critical moment. Inviting familiar relatives and friends to set up a few tables and serving a few meat dishes that can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year is already a very good banquet.
Relatives can visit relatives in the family area, but they must be approved and registered in advance, and the whole process is quite troublesome.
Aunt Zhong and Apple's mother agreed that they would only invite familiar friends to set up a few tables at the base, and then set up a few tables at their hometown when they return to their hometown to visit their relatives at the end of the year. This can save a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Chen Pingguo only has a few colleagues from the Yuhong class. Apple's mother is usually very low-key and rarely goes out. The familiar workers combined can't even make up a table.
It was mainly Auntie Zhong and Engineer Mo, both of whom were famous for their good relationships. Mo Jiazhe also got along well with his colleagues. Except for a few people who were on duty and couldn't leave, the entire guard team came to serve as his brothers in welcoming the bride.
With all the calculations, they could actually arrange ten tables.
"Well, I wouldn't know if I didn't count it, but it's shocking to count it. A rough estimate is that hundreds of people were invited." This does not include colleagues from the new factory who couldn't come to the base.
"You and Engineer Mo have good relationships, and it's rare for you to get together. Just think of it as having a reunion dinner in advance. Anyway, the cafeteria is big enough, so it's not a big problem to set up ten tables." Su Taotao said.
Aunt Zhong nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, that naughty boy Jiji dragged himself to his twenties to get married, and it was not easy for him to marry a good daughter-in-law like Pingguo. It's worth being happy. Just prepare twelve tables and let the children in Chenchen and Dongdong's class, Mumu and Ah Hang's friends come for a meal."
Otherwise, how can we say that Aunt Zhong is popular?
She is only good at picking up money from her family, or she just lives frugally and never takes advantage of others.
She is more generous than anyone else and does better than anyone else when it comes to spending money and doing favors.
"I'll pay for Jiji's wedding candy, and I'll also get you twelve ducks as my wedding gift to congratulate Jiji." Su Taotao said.
These days, nothing is more precious than giving food as a gift. Many things cannot be bought even if you have money.
Xiao Yunduo's brothers and sisters should be able to leave the pen. Just keep them away from dust so that he won't think of taking them back to raise.
Aunt Zhong shook her head: "How can that be possible? We will be in trouble if people pull our braids and accuse us of abusing our power for personal gain."
Su Taotao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "What are you thinking? I was planning to buy candy with my own money to exchange for ducks. Our candy is selling well and everyone is happy to exchange."
Aunt Zhong still shook her head: "It still won't work. The factory has a heavy production task and we can't even get orders. We have to set aside some to use as wedding candy to exchange for ducks. Isn't that adding insult to injury? No, no..."
Su Taotao sighed. In fact, most of the old comrades nowadays are as honest as Aunt Zhong, and only a few are black sheep.
"Aunt Zhong, just put your mind at ease. This little bit of stuff is not a big deal. We've worked hard for the sugar factory until our death. It would be really disheartening if we were criticized for buying some sugar.
I plan to add a benefit. In the future, if the direct relatives of the factory employees need sugar for weddings, they can get a certificate to buy a certain amount of sugar at cost price.
But it can only be used once a year, and in limited quantities. The excess must be purchased at the market price, and can only be used by direct relatives."
Aunt Zhong has always been unable to defeat Su Taotao. She was stunned by what Su Taotao said, but when she came to her senses, she felt it made a lot of sense.
She nodded and said, "That's right. We work in a sugar factory, so we should have some employee benefits. Otherwise, we will be embarrassed to say that we work in a sugar factory. I will take care of this matter when I go back."
"Isn't the quota only available to direct relatives? I will use my quota to buy it."
Su Taotao shook her head and said, "I don't have much money. It will show my sincerity if I buy it at the market price. You can save your quota when you go back to your hometown at the end of the year and let them taste our coconut candy."
Aunt Zhong said with a smile: "Everyone in my family has tried it. Didn't I buy some for Jiji to take back? Everyone gave it a thumbs up after eating it. Many relatives haven't tried it. OK, I won't be polite with you. You are our factory director. It is very interesting to give you this as a gift."
Su Taotao smiled brightly: "That's right. Our sugar is hard currency now. It is very useful."
