The two men came to the gate of the granary. It was already past working hours, so there were not many people passing by.
"Brother Xiangyang, why did you think of coming to see me?" Yan Laosan smiled and handed him a cigarette, lighting it himself.
Xu Xiangyang didn't refuse. After they smoked for a while, he said, "Third brother, I don't want to trouble anyone even if I have nothing to do. You should know that."
This is indeed the truth. Yan Laosan knew exactly what kind of person Xu Xiangyang was.
He smiled and nodded, "Brother, if you have any problems, just tell me. If Third Brother can help you, I will definitely help you."
Both of them are very down-to-earth, so there aren't many ulterior motives when they talk and chat.
Xu Xiangyang was just about to ask him to help find a temporary worker when someone came over.
"Comrade Xu? Where have you been?"
Xu Xiangyang turned around and saw, isn’t this the small amount of money from before?
Xiao Qian was very happy to see him and ran over immediately.
"Comrade Xu, after you helped me earlier, my master wanted to find you."
Xu Xiangyang was a little confused when he heard this and asked, "Looking for me? What do you want from me?"
He didn't know Xiao Qian's master, and he didn't know anyone in the Grain Bureau except those in the grain warehouse.
Xiao Qian smiled and said, "Didn't you help out with a trip before? It just so happens that our team is short of people, and I was wondering if you would be willing to come and be the driver."
At that time, there were very few experienced drivers, and most of them served various units, so there were no idle people.
It’s too slow to train apprentices, and I don’t dare let them get started because of the long distance, so I can only take it slow.
Xu Xiangyang was so happy when he heard this. Is he willing? Of course he was willing.
But you can't show it too much at this time, you have to be reserved.
"Really? But I'm not that good at driving. If the organization needs me, I will definitely go." He said with a smile.
This was not a rejection, nor was it an immediate agreement.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qian smiled and said, "Comrade Xu, if you can't drive, who else can? Come on, I'll take you to see my master."
Yan Laosan, who was standing by, was stunned. He felt it was a pity that Xu Xiangyang was dismissed from the grain depot before, but now he was going to be a driver?
Xu Xiangyang turned to Yan Lao San and said, "Third brother, I'll go first. I'll come find you after lunch."
I originally wanted to ask Yan Laosan for help. Now that the work has been settled, I might as well go and take a look first.
Yan Lao San nodded quickly, "Go quickly."
Work is important, everything else is trivial.
But I still have to sigh that Xu Xiangyang is really lucky. He can drive and has this ability.
Xu Xiangyang followed Xiao Qian to the driver's lounge and inquired about some things on the way.
Xiao Qian's master is Chen Jiancai, a man in his forties who likes to drink and smoke, but doesn't have a bad temper.
Xu Xiangyang didn't believe it. After all, you can't tell what a person is like from what he hears from others.
Listening to another person's words is the stupidest thing to do.
When we got to the lounge, there were only two people chatting in the room.
Xiao Qian walked up and greeted him, "Master, I brought Comrade Xu to you."
Chen Jiancai glanced at Xu Xiangyang. Seeing that he was so young, he began to doubt whether this man was as good at driving as Xiao Qian said.
"Hello, Master Chen, my name is Xu Xiangyang." Xu Xiangyang greeted him confidently.
Although he could see that Chen Jiancai was somewhat suspicious of him, this suspicion was not important.
The most important thing is the first impression you make, so make sure you leave a good one.
Chen Jiancai nodded and asked, "Comrade Xiao Xu, I heard you can drive, right? Where did you learn it?"
I drove for him last time, which means his driving skills are really good.
After all, it’s a day’s journey back and forth, and it’s impossible to drive if the handlebars are not working.
How could Xu Xiangyang say that he learned it at a driving school? He had no choice but to lie.
"I learned it from a distant relative's house. My cousin is a long-distance driver and I often hang out with him. Master Chen should know it." He smiled and pretended to know it.
Chen Jiancai nodded. At this time, all the relatives in the family were willing to hang out with the driver. They would follow him on a few trips when they had nothing to do, and they wanted to learn how to drive.
So Xu Xiangyang can drive, which can explain it.
He said, "Comrade Xiao Xu, you can't skip this test. Please prepare for it. We will take the test later and then apply for your driver's license from the bureau."
In other words, with the driving license, he is a driver in the bureau.
Xu Xiangyang was so happy that he immediately nodded and agreed, "No problem, Master Chen."
The three of them left the lounge and went directly to the parking lot.
Chen Jiancai drove out a truck and let him drive it in the yard.
After a series of operations, Xu Xiangyang met the qualification standards and Master Chen was very satisfied.
"Not bad." Chen Jiancai looked at Xu Xiangyang with satisfaction and said, "People your age are still apprentices. You should work hard in the future."
He was very satisfied. At least his driving skills were very good, even steadier than his own handlebars.
When Xu Xiangyang heard this, he knew that he had passed the test.
Chen Jiancai took him to a few more places and handled some procedures, and he could officially start work tomorrow.
When Xu Xiangyang got the driving license and some supporting documents, he was still dizzy.
Is that it? The work is done?
Isn't that a bit too fast?
He had been thinking about it for a long time at home and wanted to ask someone to find a temporary worker for him.
I came here today and started working as a regular employee, a driver!
Very good!
After completing the formalities, Chen Jiancai asked him to report in tomorrow, and then went out to do some business.
Xu Xiangyang turned to Xiao Qian and said, "Comrade Qian, let's go out for dinner together. I'm so grateful for your help with our work today."
Why don’t you eat in the cafeteria at noon? Why go out to eat?
Xiao Qian waved his hand and said, "Comrade Xu, we still have to work together in the future. I won't eat this meal. Let's talk about it later."
He knew that Xu Xiangyang came from the countryside, and that it must have been difficult for him to get by. If he had only one meal, the rest of his family would probably go hungry for half a month.
This is not an exaggeration. A meal in the city costs at least one dollar, not counting coupons.
One dollar is enough to buy more than ten kilograms of cornmeal. If you make porridge with it, can't it last you for half a month?
Seeing that he was genuinely being polite, Xu Xiangyang didn't insist. There was plenty of time left, so he'd talk about it later.
If it weren't for Xiao Qian today, I might still be stuck with no job. If someone hadn't mentioned it to me, would Chen Jian have known about me?
I'm afraid he won't care. There is always a substitute for a good job these days.
This time his move to the city was a complete success. At least he was very satisfied with his current job and was a formal employee.
