In this era, travel is slow, letters take a long time to arrive, and a lifetime is only enough to love one person. If you lock your heart, the other person will understand!
Lu Xiaojun's phone call was very short, consisting of only a few words.
But this is enough to tell us one thing: he will reply, and their relationship has become closer than just that of classmates.
He gave the other party his home and brigade headquarters phone numbers and promised to write back when he had time.
He happened to have some free time tonight, so he picked up his pen and wrote a reply.
Unlike the other person, I didn't go into every little detail; I just exchanged a few words of greeting and briefly introduced my recent situation.
He returned to his village and became the village head. There's a temple in the village where wishes for children are said to be very effective, making it a favorite among big bosses from Hong Kong. He even hosted two Hong Kong businessmen a couple of days ago, and more Hong Kong businessmen are coming in a few days.
Finally, he wanted to invite the other person to come to the village temple to make a wish when they had time. Today he learned that they were not too far apart, and the other person was actually from the next city.
If you want to come over, it will only take half a day.
However, considering that the two of them didn't seem to know each other very well yet, they gave up on the idea.
After sending the letter, I got back to work.
I came here today with three old classmates who came to work in the village a few days ago.
"How's work going?" Lu Xiaojun asked.
The three nodded in unison, "It went very smoothly."
How could I not be happy? The salary is high, the benefits are good, and it even includes food and accommodation. It's much better than many people who stay in the county to work.
I've only been here for less than two months, and I've already received over 200 yuan in salary and bonuses.
This was something they never dared to imagine before.
Looking around the spacious villa, the three of them were a little reserved. They all understood why their old classmate, after graduating from a prestigious university, didn't want to stay in Kyoto to develop his career, but instead insisted on returning to this remote mountain village.
Coming back to live in such a nice house and even becoming the brigade leader—don't underestimate this brigade leader just because he's only a brigade cadre; this is the Changhe Brigade!
There are Hong Kong-funded enterprises, collective enterprises of their own brigade, and a powerful money-making temple in the back mountain.
This team leader is probably more lucrative than being a county or city mayor.
"Is there something you need?"
Seeing their reserved demeanor, Lu Xiaojun took the initiative to ask.
"Yes, there is something I need to talk to you about. Last weekend, we ran into a high school classmate when we went back to the county. She heard that our brigade is recruiting an accountant and wanted to ask her if she could come over."
"The team is indeed looking for an accountant, but preferably someone who can start immediately. Can she do it?"
"Yes, she went to work in a factory as an accountant after graduating from high school, but she hasn't been promoted to a permanent position yet."
Lu Xiaojun frowned and asked directly, "What's going on? Is it because of poor work performance, or because there aren't any openings for permanent positions?"
If someone is not good at their job, even if they are a classmate, he won't hire them.
"Don't get me wrong, her abilities are fine. It's just that her boss is deliberately blocking her. He sees that she's pretty and wants her to agree to something, but she doesn't. So they've been blocking her like this."
"Who are you talking about?" Lu Xiaojun asked.
"It's Su Yun. You should remember her, right? She used to be the prettiest girl in our class."
Lu Xiaojun nodded. He naturally remembered this person. It was no secret at their school that she was dating a boy from another class. Everyone said they were a perfect match, the most well-suited couple.
"Okay, let her come for an interview. My older brother and Accountant Zhang will have to interview her. If they think she's okay, she can stay."
"That's great, I'll give her a call later."
Lu Xiaojun gestured towards the home phone, "You can call from here."
The three classmates didn't stand on ceremony and made a phone call to Su Yun.
After finishing the call, one of the students let out a soft sigh.
"To be honest, Su Yun is quite pitiful. Life is unpredictable. Back then, Su Yun was so successful, but who knew she would run into such a worthless bastard."
"Who can argue with that?"
The three of them then began to talk about Su Yun's experiences over the past few years.
Back then, Su Yun and her boyfriend both passed the college entrance examination, but she didn't go to university because of a miscarriage after getting pregnant. Later, she went to work as an accounting apprentice in a factory.
Her premarital pregnancy was exposed due to an unexpected miscarriage, which ruined her reputation.
Even more tragically, her boyfriend changed his mind after a year at university and broke up with her.
And so she became an unwanted "broken shoe." In the past few years, there have been matchmakers, but they were either widowers who had lost their wives or old bachelors who couldn't find wives.
Because of her good looks, she is often targeted by some lewd people.
As a result, her life was very difficult.
The last time the three of them returned to the county town, they happened to run into her being harassed. They helped her out and, seeing that she was an old classmate, they brought up the matter of the brigade recruiting workers, wanting to help her.
Lu Xiaojun sighed after hearing about his old classmate's situation. Since they were classmates, he thought he should help if he could. He figured that if the classmate was of good character, he would help him find another job even if he couldn't handle the accounting work.
Su Yun arrived quickly, coming from the county town to join the brigade the next morning.
It's quite convenient to come to Changhe Brigade from the county seat now. There's a bus route to the brigade, and passenger buses make a round trip from the county seat to Changhe Brigade every day.
The interviewers were Lu Yuan, Wen Moxue, Lu Xiaojun, and Zhang Yong'an.
All four of them had a good impression of Su Yun, and with several years of accounting experience, her professional skills were definitely not a problem.
They unanimously decided to keep the person there for now and see how things go.
"You've been accepted. There's a three-month probationary period, and if you pass, you'll be a full-time employee. The probationary salary is 48 yuan per month, and 60 yuan after that. There will also be bonuses and benefits if you perform well."
