Xu Xiangyang followed Chen Jiancai outside, and the two people in the room also looked over curiously.
Chen Jiancai closed the door and immediately asked, "Xiao Xu, how was your visit to Director Yang yesterday?"
How about it?
Xu Xiangyang was a little confused when he heard his question. What did he mean by "how"?
However, he still answered honestly: "It's pretty good. Director Yang is approachable and amiable, and very tolerant of his subordinates."
Well, let's flatter him first. After all, he is the leader, and we can't let him say bad things about him behind his back, right?
It’s best not to talk too much about this person in front of others or behind their backs. Who knows if it will get to other people’s ears?
Besides, leaders hate subordinates who gossip about them. No one likes people who talk bad about others behind their backs.
Chen Jiancai nodded, but he was puzzled. Director Yang was known for being very particular about things, so why did he always have a good impression of Xu Xiangyang?
He didn't think much about it. Since Xu Xiangyang thought Director Yang was good, he said, "Then you will be responsible for sending Director Yang home from now on. He goes home every Saturday afternoon."
After saying that, he patted Xu Xiangyang on the shoulder and went into the house.
Xu Xiangyang: ???
No, how did I get arranged to be someone's driver?
He doesn't want to be Director Yang's driver!
With Director Yang being like that, if Xu Xiangyang hadn't talked him over, he would have offended a lot of people sooner or later.
Given the current situation, it's not hard to say when he will be removed from office.
He's a good person, but not really suitable for this position.
Of course, Xu Xiangyang has no right to criticize others. After all, everyone has a different attitude towards life and work.
When he returned to the lounge, everyone was looking at him. Obviously, they were all wondering why Chen Jiancai asked him to go out.
However, Xu Xiangyang did not say it proactively. He said that it was okay, but if no one asked him, wouldn’t it be too bad?
He returned to his chair as if nothing had happened, sitting there waiting for today's work.
As the end of the month approaches, the company starts to get busy.
Not only the leaders, but also the people at the bottom have to be busy.
"Comrade Xiao Xu, Director Yang needs a car, please hurry." A man came in from outside, greeted him and left.
Xu Xiangyang didn't know who that person was, but he was the only one with the surname Xu in the whole room, so he was calling him.
He quickly took the car keys and drove to pick someone up.
Director Yang got into the car with an unhappy look on his face, and he was accompanied by the man named Xu Xiangyang.
"Secretary Jin, just use bicycles next time. It's such a waste of resources! It's such a long distance. Can't we just ride bicycles?" Director Yang still has a lot of things to do.
Secretary Jin smiled and replied, "Director Yang, all the bicycles here are personal. We were only given two cars."
Usually, leaders go out by car, so who rides a bicycle to work? How can it be used?
Director Yang was clearly dissatisfied with his answer and immediately said sternly, "Cars are more wasteful. It would be better to prepare a few bicycles. We serve the people and cannot burden the higher-ups!"
This...
Secretary Jin couldn't answer. After all, the other party was the director. What could he say?
Xu Xiangyang, standing by, always felt that Director Yang was quite nosy. And if he said it was a waste of resources, then wouldn't buying a bicycle be a waste? Wouldn't that just add to the burden?
Leave the car there and buy a bicycle? What kind of thinking is this?
Secretary Jin actually thought so too, but he didn't dare say it out loud.
After all, he is just a secretary. How can he have the qualifications to question his leader?
No one spoke along the way. Xu Xiangyang followed their route instructions and drove all the way to the provincial university.
This time Director Yang came here to give a lecture, mainly talking about his glorious deeds of leading troops in battle.
Xu Xiangyang was waiting for them in the parking lot. After thinking about it, he decided to go in and take a look since he was already there.
When he entered, there were many people sitting in the classroom, and some standing in the back.
Xu Xiangyang also stood behind him. Director Yang on the stage was giving a deep speech at this time.
"At that time, we ate snow and tree roots. The soil was frozen in winter and could not be dug up. We could only eat some hay."
"Life is getting better and better now. It is all thanks to the leadership of our Party that we have today. I hope you can cherish your current life and every grain of food!"
Director Yang did not say much about his wartime deeds. There was no need to tell these students about the cruelty of the war.
They are the future pillars of the motherland and will dedicate themselves to the country instead of fighting in the front lines.
Xu Xiangyang was very emotional when listening to this. People in later generations said that one eats snow and one eats noodles, but where is the noodles here?
There is no way to support things with low production, and the noodles produced cannot be needed by everyone, right?
So most people ate very poorly, and it was only in recent years that things got better.
The students could not understand the situation at that time, but they could feel from Director Yang’s in-depth speech that these things were not easy.
After the lecture, Xu Xiangyang went to the parking lot to wait. At this time, the school leaders were probably talking to Director Yang.
Not long after, Secretary Jin and Director Yang came out.
After getting in the car, Director Yang was obviously still in a daze from his speech.
He thought of his compatriots who had fought together before. Their current life was really hard-earned...
After sending the person off, Xu Xiangyang put the car keys back to their original place and went to the cafeteria to eat.
When he came back, it was just time for dinner. Everyone had gone out except him.
There are a lot of people in the cafeteria during meal time, and everyone is queuing up to get food.
Xu Xiangyang didn't stop eating the food here just because there was a cafeteria in his own space. Well, the food here was average, but it was sociable.
He is short of friends now. He can't always be alone, right?
Therefore, Xu Xiangyang has never been separated from the masses and is determined to become one with them!
"Comrade Xu! This way." Qian Wenqing saw him and waved to him.
Xu Xiangyang walked over with his lunch box and sat next to him.
He was not the only one at the table, there were also several colleagues from the Grain Bureau.
The short-haired boy sitting next to Qian Wenqing greeted him, "Is this the new driver? Hello, comrade, my name is Li Xiangqian!"
Li Xiangqian was very enthusiastic, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes, obviously curious about Xu Xiangyang.
Xu Xiangyang introduced himself in the same way, then started eating with a smile.
When they were half full, they heard Li Xiangqian sigh and say, "Alas, the food at our Grain Bureau is pretty good, but it still doesn't taste good!"
As he spoke, he picked at the food in the lunch box.
Xu Xiangyang took a look at the lunch box. It contained cabbage and tofu. Although there was no meat, it was stewed with animal oil and tasted pretty good.
There is also a dish of fried shredded potatoes. This kind of dish can be found everywhere, but it is also fried with animal oil, so it tastes better than ordinary fried shredded potatoes.
Besides, it is generally good enough to use animal oil in vegetarian dishes.
