Lin Ying's words brought the two of them to their senses; this kind of machine was indeed not suitable for ordinary households.
Although Lin Ying's family doesn't need a heater, the two said that it was Lin Ying's idea and they must keep it for her.
Although she didn't need it now, she might need it in the future. So Lin Ying decided to keep it.
Unbeknownst to Lin Ying, after the two returned home, they told Jiang He about what had happened at Lin Ying's home.
When Jiang He heard the two of them praising Lin Ying's home as if it were a paradise on earth, he couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
"At Comrade Lin Ying's house, they don't even burn their own firewood; they have an automatic firewood feeder. When the firewood in the stove is almost gone, they add more over there."
After the firewood ash has burned completely, it will fall directly into the ash channel below, without even needing to be scooped out. The room stays warm all day. But that's all.
"You just need to put firewood into that machine once every three days."
"You say we're all human, so why is there such a big difference?"
Jiang He was extremely curious about what the two were saying. However, he was simply too busy right now. Their factory used to have more steel quotas than they could use. But now, since the heating system came on the market, they were seeing that they wouldn't need any more steel.
He's currently juggling production and applying for quotas. He's incredibly busy.
But now his heart is warm, just like everyone else's at the factory.
After the two staff members from the machinery factory left, Lin Ying looked at the employment forms they left behind with some difficulty.
They say the factory is expanding production and needs to hire more temporary workers. Of course, if they think the business is doing well, they might be offered permanent positions.
"Director Jiang said that our factory's current profitability is all thanks to you. Therefore, we have given you three positions as female employees in this recruitment drive."
Although it's a temporary job, it's still factory work. Besides, they said there's a chance to become a permanent employee.
I understand. If I sold it to someone else, I'm afraid someone would want it for two hundred yuan a piece.
But giving it to Lin Ying put her in a bit of a dilemma.
The two men said that the female employee's job was to be responsible for outer packaging or inspection. These were all easy jobs.
Lin Ying knew that this was a gift from Factory Director Jiang, intended to curry favor with her. However, just like food, the problem with work is not scarcity but inequality.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Ying carried Er Ya to Li Yue'e's house.
Seeing Lin Ying come over, Li Yue'e was surprised: "Your house is so warm, why did you come to visit me? Quick, bring the child to the kang (heated brick bed), it's warm there."
Lin Ying couldn't bear to let Er Ya get cold, so she carried Er Ya onto the kang (heated brick bed).
"Sister-in-law, I won't beat around the bush with you. I really have something I want to ask you today."
Hearing Lin Ying say this, Li Yue'e was a little stunned: "What's wrong? Is there some difficulty? Don't worry, as long as you need my help, I will definitely not refuse."
Lin Ying couldn't help but laugh: "What are you talking about? I stay at home all day, what could possibly happen? You know I'm on temporary assignment at the Second Machinery Factory. When they came to deliver some things to me today, they told me some news."
Li Yue'e instinctively felt that this might be good news, and she couldn't help but swallow hard: "What news?"
"The factory over there is currently manufacturing heating equipment. It seems to be selling quite well, and the factory is short-staffed."
Upon hearing that there was a shortage of workers, Li Yue'e couldn't help but get excited, but then she said with disappointment, "When other companies are short-staffed, they will definitely prioritize hiring the children of existing employees. We don't have much of a chance."
Lin Ying nodded in agreement. If it were really that easy to recruit people, there wouldn't be so many military spouses who still haven't been placed in jobs.
"Indeed, they also said that this recruitment is not open to the general public. Especially now that there's a lot of activity going on in the countryside, this is a rare opportunity for many recent graduates who are unemployed and want to stay in the city. So the competition for these positions is indeed quite fierce."
Lin Ying spoke, and Li Yue'e became more and more disappointed: "Yes, so we have even less of a chance."
"Sister-in-law, you don't actually think I came here just to chat with you about these kinds of things, do you?"
Li Yue'e was a little confused: "Wh-what do you mean?" She had a guess in her mind, but the guess was so exciting that it made it difficult for Li Yue'e to calm down.
Lin Ying said directly, "I designed the heating system. To thank me, the factory gave me three job application forms. They said I just needed to take the forms to HR to complete the onboarding process. As you know, sister-in-law, I don't have many relatives, so this opportunity isn't very useful to me."
Hearing Lin Ying's words, Li Yue'e couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. What was this? Some were dying of thirst while others were drowning in floods. But even though Lin Ying said that those things that weren't important to her were precious to her, she couldn't bring herself to ask if she could transfer the spot to her.
Because it's so precious.
"I just came to ask my sister-in-law if she needs this application form. After all, if she's working, she'll likely have night shifts, and Political Commissar Wang has been very busy lately."
The starting salary for the first two months is 21 yuan per month. From the third month onwards, it's 29 yuan per month. Of course, factory benefits are also provided. After becoming a permanent employee, the salary is 32 yuan per month.
Li Yue'e looked incredulous upon hearing this. Her heart was pounding after hearing Lin Ying's words, but Lin Ying was right; the factory would definitely have to work the night shift. If that was the case, she might not be able to take care of her child.
Li Yue'e thought for a moment and said, "Sister, I'm not lying to you, I'm really happy that you're giving this spot to me. But I do have to take care of my child. Is this urgent? Can I think about it and give you an answer later?"
Lin Ying smiled: "Of course, I can report for duty within a week. I'll wait for my sister-in-law to consider it first, and she can give me her answer tomorrow."
