Chapter 1102 Which Sixth Brother
After thinking about it carefully, Fu Jingyou really thinks it is feasible:
"You can ask. Your sister-in-law said that the monthly salary for a driver is 25 yuan. The family can provide a place to live and have food to eat. If he wants to come and doesn't want to travel back and forth, he can live at home. He doesn't have to worry about the cost of driving lessons. I will pay for it."
"Oh...I know what's going on!"
Chen Xiangdong said with a "tsk".
"Don't you trust me with your work? Okay, okay, leave this to me. I'll give you a definite answer later!"
"Um."
The small hardware processing factory has apparently been almost cleaned up, and now only a few machines are left to be produced.
The lathe equipment can continue to be used.
There are some nooks and crannies inside where waste oil accumulates, and due to problems such as aging and rust, the equipment does not run as smoothly and sensitively.
Fu Jingyou hung up the phone and went upstairs to pick up his bag.
He put all the wrenches, screwdrivers, sandpaper, etc. into his bag, went downstairs, pushed his bicycle to the front yard and went directly to the factory.
Fu Jingyou went to the factory to solve the problem with the lathe equipment.
On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Chen Xiangdong said hello to Mei Zi and went out to find Liu Xiaozhu.
Liu Xiaozhu is still working at the scrap yard.
The job at the scrap yard doesn't pay well, but it's not tiring.
Liu Xiaozhu was quite satisfied with his monthly salary of 15 yuan.
But in the past two years, my eldest sister Liu Chunxiang came back from divorce and has been doing very well in Lu Miao's factory yard. She is considered to be earning thirty or forty yuan a month.
Most of the time, I can get seventy or eighty yuan.
Liu Xiaozhu certainly wouldn't be jealous of his own sister, but he couldn't help but make comparisons in his heart.
His sister had never been to school and had only attended literacy classes for a few days, but he had at least finished fourth grade.
If his sister could get such a high salary, why couldn't he strive for it too? Another thing is that although the job at the scrap yard is a stable job, it is too low-level and marginalized.
Some of the allowances and benefits that a stable job should have are actually not implemented in Liu Xiaozhu's place.
It was a series of twists and turns, one after another, so when Liu Xiaozhu heard that Chen Xiangdong could teach people how to drive, he was the first to run over and ask.
The tuition fee is only fifty yuan, which is too expensive!
Liu Xiaozhu did some calculations himself.
With a monthly salary of fifteen yuan, after deducting the expenses for food, clothing, housing, and supporting his elderly mother and father, it would take him nearly a year to save up fifty yuan.
Moreover, if he went to learn how to drive, he would not be able to continue to watch over the scrap yard, which would be equivalent to giving up his job at the scrap yard.
No job means no income, and you still have to pay tuition fees, and you may not be able to find a job after graduation.
This risk is indeed too great for Liu Xiaozhu.
But even so, Liu Xiaozhu did not completely give up the idea of learning to drive.
When Chen Xiangdong came to find him, he was sitting on a broken bench at the door of the scrap station, carefully counting his wife's money.
Liu Xiaozhu thought to himself that if he really went to learn how to drive, he would see if he could find someone he could trust to help keep an eye on the work at the scrap yard.
If it is feasible, even if he can't find a job as a driver after learning to drive, he will at least have a way out.
Thinking this in his mind, Liu Xiaozhu clapped his hands together with the thick stack of dimes, cents and cents banknotes.
Before I could find someone to trust, I heard footsteps outside.
Liu Xiaozhu hurriedly stuffed a large roll of banknotes into his trouser pocket and stretched his neck to look out.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaozhu quickly stood up and went out to greet him:
"Brother Dong, what brings you here? What's going on? Is the factory not busy today?"
Chen Xiangdong walked over and said with a smile:
"Not busy? Is there ever a day when the factory isn't busy?"
Liu Xiaozhu also smiled and quickly said "yes".
But in just a moment, Liu Xiaozhu asked again:
"Brother Dong, what are you doing here now? I was just thinking of going to see you after work later today!"
"You're lucky, you've got something good going on."
Chen Xiangdong hooked his arm around Liu Xiaozhu's shoulder, shook his head and smiled, and walked inside with Liu Xiaozhu.
He didn't rush to say what it was. He just heard Liu Xiaozhu say that he was going to find him, but instead asked a few more questions out of curiosity:
"What do you want from me?"
"Ah!"
Liu Xiaozhu rubbed the back of his head and said hesitantly:
"What else could it be? Isn't it still about learning to drive?"
As he spoke, Liu Xiaozhu put down his hand and looked at Chen Xiangdong and said:
"Brother Dong, I may really have to trouble you with this matter!"
Chen Xiangdong was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing.
Taking out a cigarette box from his pocket, Chen Xiangdong popped out two cigarettes. He put one in his mouth and handed the other to Liu Xiaozhu.
Tobacco and alcohol are regulators in life.
Liu Xiaozhu lives a tight life, how could he have ever smoked this stuff?
Although he didn't know how to smoke, Liu Xiaozhu still took it.
Chen Xiangdong lit up his cigarette and took a puff before explaining his purpose:
"What a coincidence, isn't it? I came here to tell you this."
Liu Xiaozhu took out a small stool, wiped off the dust on the surface and handed it to Chen Xiangdong.
After Chen Xiangdong took it, he sat down with him and talked about this matter:
"Aren't you worried about not being able to find a job after learning to drive? Now there's a good place to go. It just depends on whether you're willing to do it."
"What good place? Brother Dong, don't keep me in suspense, just tell me! If there's a good place, I'm definitely willing to go!"
Chen Xiangdong then read to him the speech he had prepared before coming:
"Sixth Brother's family bought a new car and is now looking for a driver. I told him about your situation, and he said you're a decent person. If you're willing to go, the driver job is waiting for you."
As he spoke, Chen Xiangdong repeated to Liu Xiaozhu the salary and benefits Fu Jingyou had mentioned at that time:
"Twenty-five yuan a month, with meals provided. If you don't want to travel back and forth, there's a place for you to stay there."
Liu Xiaozhu was stunned.
Twenty-five dollars a month?
That's ten dollars higher than his current salary!
Working at the scrap yard for twelve months a year, I can earn a maximum of 180 yuan.
If the driver job Chen Xiangdong mentioned was real, and he could get that job after learning how to drive, he could make three hundred yuan a year!
One hundred and eighty to three hundred, this is not a small difference.
It could save him half a year’s hard work!
Liu Xiaozhu's eyes were darting around, and his hands were shaking with excitement as he thought about this.
But after a while, his rationality returned and Liu Xiaozhu asked seriously:
"Brother Dong, which Sixth Brother are you talking about?"
Liu Xiaozhu still had some concerns.
Chen Xiangdong was in charge of two factories, and Liu Xiaozhu's eldest sister worked under him, and she did receive generous treatment.
Liu Xiaozhu can definitely trust what Chen Xiangdong says.
It’s that Sixth Brother. Liu Xiaozhu has no idea what’s going on.
