The next morning, Xu Xiangyang got up, had breakfast, and set off with his things.
This time he needs to complete the work independently, so no one can help him.
Because the surrounding area was large, he was assigned a bicycle.
It would be a waste if you don’t use it! Xu Xiangyang feels more comfortable riding a bicycle.
The weather was good today, so he wandered to a place about five miles away.
There are some in the nearby communes and villages, which are about five or six miles, or ten miles away from their project team.
This place has also been considered, and it is not far from the city, about ten miles away.
But it’s a bit far to their unit.
Xu Xiangyang walked around and found that the surrounding area might be turned into an urban area in twenty years.
In another forty years, this place will be a development zone or a fringe area.
Apart from anything else, it covers a large area and there are quite a few people living nearby.
From a long-term perspective, this is still a very good place.
Xu Xiangyang spent the morning choosing two places, then went back to eat, went out for a walk in the afternoon, and chose another place.
These three locations are very suitable for building factories and are very close to villages and communes.
There is another one very close to the new city, about five miles away, which is the best place.
However, for the specific details, we still need to report the situation to Director Liao and let his leader decide.
After Xu Xiangyang returned, he first went back to his room, and then wrote the address and the situation of each place in detail in the report.
This way it is clearer and easier for Director Liao to read.
After finishing all these things, it was already seven o'clock in the evening and he didn't even have dinner.
"Secretary Xu." Zhang Lianhe's voice was heard outside the door. "Is Secretary Xu here?"
Xu Xiangyang sighed. Who turned on the light if he wasn’t here?
He stood up and walked to the door, then opened it and said, "What are you doing? It's already late and you're still not asleep?"
Zhang Lianhe replied with a smile, "It's only seven o'clock. Didn't you miss your meal? I have some egg cakes here. Would you like some? I bought them at the commune today."
Note: Egg cake is also called caozigao. In Northeast China, it is called egg cake. It is an old-fashioned cake made with flour, eggs and milk.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at the egg cake in his hand, which was wrapped in yellow oil paper.
"Come in." He moved aside and let the other person in.
Zhang Lianhe put down his things and sat on the bench next to him. "Secretary Xu, why is your room more humid than mine?"
He looked around in confusion. Water was dripping from the ceiling, but because it was night, the drips were very few.
Xu Xiangyang shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Maybe I don't open the windows often enough for ventilation?"
He was away all day today and forgot to ventilate the room this morning.
Besides, he didn't sleep here, so he didn't care whether it was damp or not.
After the lights are turned off, he goes into the space to work and sleep, without caring what the room outside looks like.
Zhang Lianhe saw the documents on his desk and glanced at Xu Xiangyang. "Secretary Xu, you should eat first. We can do the work tomorrow. We're not in a rush here. I heard that you're responsible for the progress of the garment factory, and it might take half a year for construction to start there."
There is a lot of investment this time, so everyone is waiting in line. It is still uncertain when the construction can officially start.
Although Xu Xiangyang had known about it for a long time, he still felt helpless when it was mentioned.
After all, this matter is not something he can decide on his own, and he still needs to rely on Chief Liao to fight for it.
He nodded and said, "The leaders will follow up on the specific matters, and I will be responsible for some miscellaneous work."
What this means is that he doesn't care about so many things and just does whatever his leader tells him to do.
Besides, although Zhang Lianhe had good intentions towards him, his specific purpose was unclear, so there was no need to explain the work matters in too much detail.
What if this person is a troublemaker and messes up his own business? What will he do?
Zhang Lianhe sighed and said, "Our company only has so much money, and building a factory will cost a lot of money. If we are slow to act, we may end up accomplishing nothing."
This makes a lot of sense. How can we start construction without money?
But it was unexpected that he could say so much to Xu Xiangyang.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at him and said, "Zhang Lianhe, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
This kid has been being overtly and covertly attentive these days, and even a fool can see that there's something wrong.
Sure enough, Zhang Lianhe was stunned when these words came out.
He blinked awkwardly, but didn't refute it, instead admitting it.
"Haha, nothing can be hidden from Secretary Xu's eyes." He smiled and said, "It's nothing, actually. I know there will be a lot of work after the garment factory is built, and I have some ideas in this regard."
This is not a secret, everyone knows it, but working there is different from working here.
Xu Xiangyang frowned, thinking that with Zhang Lianhe's current job, working in a garment factory was not really a good option.
The salary may be a little higher, but giving up the job here for such a small salary is obviously not very cost-effective.
"Accountant Zhang, are you sure?" he asked.
Zhang Lianhe nodded, his face serious. "You might think I'm stupid, but in our company, accounting positions are the same everywhere. It's not like your job, where there are more possible opportunities in the future."
He was right. Accounting was the same everywhere. Unless he improved himself, he would have the opportunity.
Otherwise, you may just be receiving a fixed salary for the rest of your life.
But what chance does someone like him have? I'm afraid he'll have to work here for the rest of his life and retire.
Of course, this is the case without any accidents.
If anything unexpected happens, I'm afraid I'll be laid off early or transferred to a worse department.
Xu Xiangyang sighed, "Okay, if you've made up your mind, I won't say anything. I'll definitely help you if I can. But what good can I get from it?"
We are all adults. How can we help others for free?
Zhang Lianhe understood this and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I can help. I can help with anything you want to do. You should know my position, which will also be helpful for your subsequent projects."
It turns out that people still have to have their own value, so that they can negotiate with others.
Zhang Lianhe's heart was pounding at this moment. It was the first time he did such a thing.
I used to be timid and afraid of things. Although it could avoid a lot of trouble, my boss didn’t like such subordinates.
So, he needs change and also needs opportunities.
Without identity and background, how can we talk about big changes?
The two chatted for a few sentences, and Xu Xiangyang agreed temporarily, waiting to see his future performance.
After all, I need to see the benefits of this matter now, otherwise there is no need to help.
