After saying goodbye to Lu Xiangyang and the others, Xu Damao rode his bike straight home. Xu Damao had really spent money tonight, but the results seemed decent; at least he'd become acquainted with everyone. Of course, Xu Damao didn't pay any attention to what Lu Xiangyang had said before he left.
When people get carried away with drinking, it's common to become sworn brothers, but that's all within the bounds of the drinking table. Once you've sobered up the next day, go back to your normal life; don't take what you said at the table too seriously. True friendships develop gradually after repeated interactions, when shared interests and common goals intertwine. Right now, they're just "drinking buddies."
"Da Mao, you're back." Xu Da Mao was stopped by Yan Fugui as soon as he entered the courtyard.
"Uncle, you're still not asleep?" Xu Damao asked.
"No, I can't sleep, I'm waiting for you." Yan Fugui probably wasn't really scared today, because he was still speaking weakly.
"Da Mao, I really want to thank you today. If it weren't for you, I'd still be stuck inside. I don't want to stay in that place for even a second longer."
When I got back, I heard from Jiecheng that you immediately went to help me find someone as soon as you understood the situation, unlike some people who were still making sarcastic remarks.
Sigh, through this experience, I've really seen through many people.
Yan Fugui kept speaking his mind. Xu Damao believed that Yan Fugui truly felt these emotions at that moment, but he also believed that as time went by, Yan Fugui would remain the same as before, and a person's nature would not be easily changed by one event.
I chatted with Yan Fugui for a while, listening to him say nice things, but he didn't do anything practical.
After arriving home, Xu Damao quickly took a shower to wash away the smell of alcohol and sweat, and then began his evening entertainment with his wife.
“Da Mao, maybe you should try to avoid going to places like that in the future. I was a little worried when I saw what Uncle San looked like today,” Wang Minzhi said, pinching Xu Da Mao’s hand afterward.
"Don't worry about me. Do you know why Uncle San has been detained until now? Let me tell you." Xu Damao then vividly recounted how Yan Fugui had been running around picking up things that others had left behind.
"Don't worry about me, I'm perfectly safe. Besides, I got to know the branch office's action team tonight, so they'll give me advance notice if they have any operations in the future." To reassure his wife, Xu Damao had no choice but to lie.

"Distinguished leaders, the head office has approved our expansion plan. According to the plan, we will proceed simultaneously by building the factory and recruiting workers. Our first batch of recruits is expected to be 200 people, including 50 experienced workers coordinated from the head office and 150 new recruits."
Of these, approximately 80 can be recruited externally; the remaining 70 will require the assistance of the leaders in finding a suitable solution.
In the conference room of the branch factory, Xu Damao reported on the recruitment work to the branch factory's leadership team. This expansion will be carried out in batches, and about 150 new workers will be needed this year.
There are too many unemployed young people in society now waiting for jobs. Not to mention that Tongzhou is not far away and there are dormitories and meals available, even if there are no meals available and you have to bring your own food, these positions are attractive enough.
However, recruitment is a skill, and doing it poorly can easily offend people. There are several ways to recruit now. One is through local governments such as street offices and communities to address the unemployment of local youth. Even the most successful company needs to maintain good relationships with the local community, so helping to solve youth employment issues is a social responsibility for businesses, and this is essential.
Another method is internal recruitment. There are several types of internal recruitment, one of which is recruiting children of existing employees. This helps address internal stability issues. Otherwise, having several unemployed young people in every family causing trouble in society would be a major headache for any company.
Another option is that the quota is controlled by the leaders. This allocation method depends on the main leader's opinion. What Xu Damao reported today is actually this kind of allocation.
After discussing it with Li Xuewu beforehand, Li Xuewu suggested allocating 10 slots to each of the other leadership teams, while he himself would take 15. This was considered a perk for the leadership team. In that era, such slots were considered valuable assets; they could be used by family members, given to section chiefs or workshop leaders, or even sold privately to others.
To be fair, Li Xuewu is particularly good at winning people over, which is why he quickly took control of the branch factory. He knows that when there's something to share, everyone should have a piece of the pie; he won't hog it all.
"Dear leaders, our initial opinion is that each leader will be assigned 10 slots. Our factory director, Mr. Li, is a leader of the main factory and is very capable, so his task will be heavier, with 15 slots."
Furthermore, considering that the head office is our superior unit, and we can't have them just standing by and watching when we have tasks, I suggest allocating 15 new recruitment slots to the head office. We won't concern ourselves with how these slots are allocated; Factory Director Li will coordinate with the head office on our behalf.”
Once the quota was given to the main factory, the leaders there felt embarrassed to ask the branch factory for more.
"Da Mao, we all have missions, how can you, the head of the personnel department, not have one?" Qiao Dayou and Xu Damao, as Li Xuewu's right-hand men, were also preparing to give Xu Damao some benefits.
"No, my dear Director Qiao, don't you know me? My abilities are limited. I'm good at providing services, but I'm not qualified to take on any real responsibilities. The leaders should step in to help in this regard."
Xu Damao understood the other party's good intentions, but as a department head, it was really inappropriate for him to take the limelight. Besides, it didn't matter whether he had a quota or not; the personnel department actually had quite a few flexible quotas, and apart from those urgently needed by the leaders, it wouldn't be too easy for him to arrange a few people himself.
"Director Li, our branch factory's personnel work has been very successful in recent years. I've visited the head office several times and they've praised us. I've seen that Da Mao has been in charge of the work for some time and has been tested. In addition, he has served as deputy section chief for more than two years. Should we consider making him a full-fledged employee?"
As for Comrade Gao Juanjuan, she's retiring in a few months. We could try to persuade her to retire early, or at least give up her position.
At this moment, Deputy Factory Director Chen Jiang suddenly changed the subject, bringing up Xu Damao's position as Deputy Section Chief.
“I think it’s a good idea, Director Chen’s suggestion is good. I’m in charge of the personnel department, and to be honest, since Da Mao came, I haven’t had to worry about personnel at all.”
I'll try to persuade Comrade Gao Juanjuan; I think she'll support the organization's work.
Once someone started this, others chimed in. Everyone knew Xu Damao would be section chief in a few months at the latest, so they figured they might as well do him a favor. As the deputy secretary in charge of personnel, Song Shan volunteered to work on Gao Juanjuan.
Thus, with everyone's tacit agreement, the leaders received the task of recruiting workers, and Xu Damao would soon become the section chief, which was a win-win situation for everyone.
