Chapter 96 Uncle Visits
After staying at Master Liu's house for a while, the three of them got up and left.
"You are quite special to these two girls."
Master Liu's wife looked at his wife and said.
"These two girls are pretty good. They're not the kind of people who will ignore others after learning a skill. Let's get to know each other more."
Master Liu said with a smile.
Both of them are employed. Their son and daughter-in-law are retired soldiers who came here to work. They came here with their son. Now they are going to retire in two years, and they don’t have any relatives here who can take over their jobs after they retire.
If these two girls have not been converted to regular employees by the time he retires, Master Liu plans to give his position to one of them.
"Can you help me put in a word at the factory?"
Master Liu's wife asked.
"Don't underestimate these two little girls. They are more experienced in socializing than us. They have already established connections with the General Affairs Department. They may have a place in this year's assessment.
I see that Wenjing has different attitudes towards them and she even cares about their academic performance. ”
Master Liu smiled.
The quiet girl she mentioned was already in her thirties.
early morning.
After breakfast, Zhao Yi went to the repair shop to work, while Zhang Jing, Li Fang and Peng Yiju went to visit Director Wen at his home. The textile factory did not start work until the sixth day of the New Year.
The weather was no longer as cold as in winter, so Zhao Yi didn't need to light a small stove. However, he still lit the stove in order to drink freshly brewed tea.
Leaning on the wooden chair, he leisurely read the book in his hand, taking a sip of tea from time to time, looking incredibly leisurely.
"Xiao Yi."
A familiar voice shouted.
When Zhao Yi looked up, he saw Li Dashun, his uncle, followed by his cousin Li Baoguo.
Zhao Yi had no resistance to his uncle's family. He had been in such a difficult situation in his previous life and came to them to borrow money. They knew that the money they lent to Zhao Yi would basically never be returned. Zhang Jing's illness was like a bottomless pit, but Li Baoguo still lent Zhao Yi one thousand yuan despite his wife's objection.
Originally, Zhao Yi had wanted to go to Lijia Village to visit his grandparents and several uncles, but unfortunately he never had the time. Lijia Village is not close to Wangou Village. One is in the east of Shanyang County and the other is in the west. It takes a whole day to walk there, and you have to set out before dawn.
"Uncle, cousin."
Zhao Yi quickly stood up and greeted the two of them.
The two men walked into the repair shop, sat on the stools, and looked at Zhao Yi with some embarrassment on their faces.
"Uncle, are you in trouble? Just tell me what you need. I will do my best to help you if I can."
Zhao Yi looked at his uncle Li Dashun and asked.
"Originally, these things shouldn't have come to you at the beginning of the year. You've only been working for a short time. But if you miss this opportunity, you don't know when you'll meet again. I went to your parents' place on the second day of the New Year, and my family doesn't have much money.
Your brother Baoguo wants to go to the county town to be a worker. There is a job there that pays two hundred and forty yuan, and he wants to give it a try, but his family doesn't have that much money, so he can only scrape together a little over one hundred yuan. I heard that you became a worker, so I shamelessly came to ask you if you could help. ”
Li Dashun looked at Zhao Yi and said with a very embarrassed expression.
"Uncle, this sounds a bit unreliable to me, but I will go back and get the money for you. But you have to be careful. When recruiting workers in the county, you must first focus on urban household registration. It is very difficult to change from rural to non-rural, not as simple as Zhang Jing.
I am naturally happy for my elder brother that he is going to go, but you should complete the employment procedures and transfer your food supply and household registration to the factory before paying the money. Don't give the money midway and then have them deny your debt. ”
Zhao Yi reminded.
There are very few scams nowadays, but they still exist. The only difference is that the ways of scamming people are different in each era.
After Zhao Yi finished speaking, he walked towards home, took out 150 yuan and came back. After counting it in front of the two of them, he handed it to his uncle Li Dashun.
"Xiao Yi, you're afraid that people will cheat us? This is a guarantee from the captain."
Li Dashun looked at Zhao Yi and asked.
"There are some things you don't know about uncle. Many things can be faked. Even the captain can't see clearly."
Zhao Yi reminded.
In the early 1980s, human traffickers began to travel across the country to traffic in women. At that time, you needed a letter of introduction to go anywhere. These people were so bold that they directly forged official seals to commit crimes everywhere.
How could ordinary stations and guesthouses recognize the authenticity of each official seal? They would never have thought that these people were so bold, and there are not so many advanced equipment now.
As long as you run back to the mountain village after you are done and spend a few years there, no one will recognize you.
There are also those who bring people to sell televisions. They will first show you a dozen televisions, and then say that there are still quite a few stocks in the warehouse, at least a few hundred sets, and they are all overseas products. As long as you invest a certain amount of money, they will split the profits equally. In the end, I don’t know how many people have been deceived.
Zhao Yi had seen all these things in his previous life in the newspaper.
"You should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others. It is good to be careful in everything."
Zhao Yi looked at the two of them and said, I hope what they encountered is real.
The two took Zhao Yi's reminder to heart.
After saying this, the two of them hurried to the station, politely declined Zhao Yi's attempt to keep them, and only left the gifts they had brought with them.
Not long after the two men left, Director Li walked into Zhao Yi's repair shop.
"The West City Department Store wants you to help out for a few days. They say you'll be paid. You'll be there to train an apprentice in the morning and come back to work in the afternoon. What do you think?"
Director Li sat on a stool, warming himself by the fire, and looked at Zhao Yi and asked.
"There shouldn't be much work these days, so why would they be in a hurry to find an apprentice?"
Zhao Yi asked doubtfully.
"At the beginning of the new year, there are still six months before graduates have to find factories to accept them. Those who are not accepted by factories have to prepare to go to the countryside to work as sent-down youths. Some people want to pave the way for their children in advance. Besides, there is no point in continuing their studies, so it is better to give up the six months of study and go straight to work.
It's the same in the North City and the South City. I guess they will call us about this soon. This is also good for you. You don't need to learn anything when you go there. Just learn how to use the radio. ”
Director Li looked at Zhao Yi and said.
The department store can ignore this matter since everyone does not work in the same unit. No one will force Zhao Yi if he does not want to go. However, they will select Zhao Yi's former apprentices to come and teach.
Director Li heard that what the other party said on the phone was beneficial, so he came over to ask Zhao Yi.
As for what the benefits were, Director Li naturally did not ask. The benefit of taking an apprentice was not only money but also solving work problems. Zhao Yi already had a job, and they would not give up a job to ask an apprentice to teach. They could just arrange the job for the apprentice when they had time.
