After arranging the children's studies, Shen Yu handed over the household affairs to Cheng Lin and instructed Luo Yu and Cui Xiangqian, who were on duty, to keep an eye on things before returning to the factory.
At the same time, Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui, brothers, also boarded a large truck bound for Guangzhou with their luggage.
An hour and a half later, they returned to Guangzhou.
Looking at the familiar Jingcheng Road and hearing the familiar local accent, Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui immediately felt very warm and fuzzy.
When I was in Shenzhen, my colleagues came from all over the country, so we mostly spoke Mandarin.
Cantonese is only spoken when locals from Shenzhen and Guangzhou are together.
Although their colleagues in Pengcheng were all very kind and treated the two brothers well, they still loved the place where they were born and raised from the bottom of their hearts.
Guangzhou, we're back!
With joy in their hearts, the two brothers strode into the Guangzhou office of Xingfu Beverage Factory.
They also saw that there were many customers waiting to buy goods in the wholesale store on the first floor, and business was booming.
After Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui went inside, they glanced at the staff around them, and finally their eyes fell on the person behind the cashier.
The person they were looking for was him—Hua Guanghui.
Shen Yu had previously shown them photos of Hua Guanghui and Man Jianfeng, but now they only saw Hua Guanghui and not Man Jianfeng.
Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui walked to the cashier together.
The customers who were queuing to pay thought the two of them were going to cut in line, so they quickly said to them, "Handsome guys, you have to wait in line!"
Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui quickly smiled at them, "We're not customers, we're employees of this store, here to report for duty."
The customers in line stopped waiting when they heard that the people in line were employees of this office.
Hua Guanghui, who was at the cashier, also heard their conversation, looked up at them, and immediately realized who they were.
He smiled and asked Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui, "Hello! Are you Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui?"
Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui nodded in unison, "Yes, you must be Comrade Hua Guanghui? Chairman Shen sent us to report to you!"
Hua Guanghui nodded. "Yes, I am Hua Guanghui. Please sit down for a moment. I'll pay the bill for the customers first."
Ding Jiarong replied with a smile, "Okay, you go ahead with your work, we'll be fine in a bit."
Hua Guanghui quickly collected money from the five major customers in line.
Before anyone came to pay, Hua Guanghui quickly came over to talk to Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui.
"Arong, Ahui, I won't stand on ceremony. Let's get straight to the point. Since Chairman Shen arranged for you to work here, I hope you will work hard, familiarize yourselves with the work process here as soon as possible, and take over my work as soon as possible."
“Once you’re ready to take over, Man Jianfeng and I will be transferred back to Chairman Shen’s side. According to Chairman Shen’s wishes, you two brothers might be put in charge here. Are you confident?”
Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui straightened their chests in unison and shouted, "We have confidence!"
Ding Jiarong continued, "Chairwoman Shen has been incredibly kind to us brothers. We have nothing to repay her with but to work harder and harder so as not to disappoint her expectations."
When Hua Guanghui heard him say that, he looked at him approvingly and said, "Very good! The fact that you two brothers have this awareness proves that you are both grateful people. Work hard for Chairman Shen, and he will not treat you unfairly. Keep it up!"
Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui nodded in unison, saying earnestly, "We will do our best!"
Hua Guanghui then asked them, "You just got back today, why don't you go home and check on things first? You can officially start work at eight o'clock tomorrow. There are staff dormitories on the third floor; you can stay here or go home."
Ding Jiarong, thinking that his own home wasn't spacious enough, immediately replied, "Let's stay in the dormitory; it'll be more convenient for commuting."
Hua Guanghui replied, "Okay, then I'll call someone down to take you up to your dorms."
He picked up the phone and dialed the internal line on the second floor. "Xiao Wei, come down to the first floor, I need to talk to you."
Wei Xiaozhen replied, "Okay, Manager Hua, I'll be right down."
Wei Xiaozhen is a newly hired personnel clerk at the office, responsible for written work, as well as arranging accommodation and meals for the office staff, etc.
Soon, Wei Xiaozhen came down.
She has regular features, a tall figure, and a sweet smile on her face. When she smiles, she has two small dimples, which makes her look very comfortable and approachable, and gives people a natural sense of goodwill towards her.
She walked up to Hua Guanghui, smiled, and asked him, "Manager Hua, is there anything I can help you with?"
Hua Guanghui pointed to Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui, "These two are colleagues personally assigned by Chairman Shen from headquarters. This is Ding Jiarong, and this is Ding Jiahui. One of them should be the one to succeed me in the future."
"By the way, they are also from Guangzhou. Take them upstairs and arrange their dormitories. Let the two brothers stay in that empty dormitory room."
After speaking to Wei Xiaozhen, he introduced her to Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui, saying, "This is Comrade Wei Xiaozhen, the personnel clerk of our office."
Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui greeted Wei Xiaozhen with smiles, "Comrade Wei, hello!"
They redesigned the 200-square-meter third-floor apartment into a five-bedroom, one-living-room unit.
Hua Guanghui and Man Jianfeng shared a large bedroom, two clerks shared a secondary bedroom, and the other five ordinary employees each shared two rooms.
There happened to be an empty dormitory room, with two bunk beds already set up inside, which Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui could use to stay.
Upon hearing Hua Guanghui's introduction, Wei Xiaozhen looked at Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui with some surprise.
These two brothers look quite refined and handsome. They were actually personally appointed by Chairman Shen from headquarters to take over Manager Hua's position? Impressive!
Wei Xiaozhen was amazed, and her smile grew even sweeter as she warmly greeted Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui, saying, "Hello, Comrades Ding! Please come up with me!"
Ding Jiarong and Ding Jiahui said in unison, "Okay, thank you!"
They followed Wei Xiaozhen up to the third floor and saw that the clean and bright apartment was much better than the tenement building where they lived.
The two brothers shared a room, which was more comfortable than at home.
If they were to return home, they would have to sleep on a wooden plank bed set up in the living room.
Wei Xiaozhen then handed them the key to the room and the key to the front door, instructing them, "You can only have one of these two keys. The company needs to keep one as a spare. You'll have to go outside and get one or two more keys made!"
Ding Jiarong said sincerely, "Okay, thank you!"
Wei Xiaozhen smiled and said, "You're welcome. You can go ahead and do your work. If you need anything, just let me know. I'm usually in my office on the second floor."
Ding Jiarong nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, take care."
They saw Wei Xiaozhen out the door, then returned to the room to start unpacking the things they had brought back.
