Chapter 106 Telephone bill
Director Sun was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said with a smile: "If Xu Zhiqing can buy a sleeper ticket, of course our factory can reimburse it."
"Then I'll thank Director Sun first."
Afternoon , Xu Wanning and Lin Quan went home together.
When passing by the brigade headquarters, she was stopped by the brigade captain.
"Xu Zhiqing, there are several calls from Beijing and City today, all calling for you. I have copied down the numbers. Take a look and see if you want to call back."
Xu Wanning looked familiar to these phone numbers . There were calls from eldest brother's office, one from Lin An, and one from Factory Director Zhang.
Xu Wanning first returned Director Zhang's call.
After a brief greeting, Director Zhang got straight to the point: "Wan Ning, I have discussed it with the department stores here. They want a total of 500 cans of canned yellow peaches, but the quality must be guaranteed."
"Brother Zhang, you It's really helped me a lot! Don't worry, the canned yellow peaches produced by our branch are not exaggerated to say that they are the best in China, but I can guarantee that our quality will always be the same."
Director Zhang hung up the phone. Xu Wanning immediately called her elder brother back.
"I have basically completed the preliminary preparations for trademark registration. You have to come to Beijing in person for the rest. What do you plan to do here?"
"I just got it from Chunhua Food Factory today. According to the agreement, we will settle things in the branch factory and at home in the past two days, and then prepare to leave for Beijing."
Xu Wanning could clearly feel that the tone of her elder brother's words was much more relaxed.
"Okay, we'll wait for you in Beijing."
Xu Wanning finally called Lin An back.
She knew that Lin An was using the army's landline, and usually he had to go through many layers of communication before he could receive it, so she put Lin An's call at the end to reply.
She was ready to wait, but unexpectedly, the phone rang only a few times before someone answered it.
"Wan Ning, is that you?" Lin An's voice came from the receiver.
Perhaps because of the phone line, his already mellow voice became even lower-mellow, with a hint of warmth.
"It's me. Are you calling me at this time? Is there something important?"
When the words came out, Xu Wanning wanted to give herself a mouthful.
She knows how to end a chat.
On the other end of the phone, Lin An was obviously stunned for a moment before speaking slowly.
"Yes. Didn't I say before that when a suitable opportunity is found, Dai Wei will come to the capital to look for work? Now there is a suitable opportunity. When you get home, ask Dai Wei if he wants to come."
"Okay, I will I'll ask him later and I'll call you when I have a definite answer."
"Okay."
There was another long silence.
After a long while, Lin An asked, "Are mom and the children okay?"
"The weather is getting warmer, mom's leg problems are no longer so annoying, and her body bones are much stronger. The kids are also very well-behaved and sensible, but I will always miss you."
"When I take a vacation, I will go back to see you."
Through the phone, Xu Wanning couldn't see Lin An's expression. It was just a simple and unnutritious conversation, which was really boring.
So she hung up the phone neatly.
Xu Wanning's footsteps had already left the brigade headquarters. She thought of something in a daze, then turned back and placed a big unity sheet in front of Accountant Xu.
Accountant Xu was reading the newspaper when suddenly there was an extra ten dollars in front of him. He was stunned for a while before he realized what he was doing.
"Xu Zhiqing, what are you doing?"
"It has only been a month since we installed the telephone in our brigade headquarters. During this time, I spent a lot of money just making phone calls. Accountant Xu, please help me record these ten yuan." Please let me know when you have finished using it and I will renew it."
"Xu Zhiqing, this is impossible. You have helped so many people in our village solve their work problems. How can I get you to do it with just a few phone calls? "Pay for the phone call?"
"One yard for the other. I have to take the money. Otherwise, not only me, but our leaders will also be criticized if others in the village find out.
" and the village chief.
The team leader sighed, "Then follow what Xu Zhiqing said, you accept the money, and when she answers the phone in the future, the phone bill will be deducted from it."
Accountant Xu then accepted the money and solemnly recorded it in the account book down.
"Counting from the first phone call I made to Beijing, record everything."
"Sure, listen to Xu Zhiqing."
After seeing that Accountant Xu had recorded the charges for each phone call, Xu Wanning followed Lin Quan. Go back.
After she left, the village chief couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
"Xu Zhiqing is a sensible person with a broad vision and an open mind. Many men don't see things as far-term as she does."
At first glance, this matter is just a matter of a few dollars, but the problems involved behind it are not It will be less.
With so many people in the village, there are many who have received favors from Xu Wanning, but most of them have no direct interest in her.
The cost of installing a landline phone, as well as subsequent phone calls, have to be deducted from the village's annual surplus.
This is also related to the income of all villagers.
Maybe no one would say anything at first, but as time goes by, there will always be people talking behind his back. If things get serious, it will have a greater impact on Xu Wanning.
After all, she has too many phone calls.
But if she shows her attitude from the beginning, others will have no chance even if they want to find trouble with her!
Therefore, this Xu Zhiqing will definitely achieve great things!
"Accountant Xu, remember to record every phone call Xu Zhiqing makes, down to the specific time."
"Okay, I get it."
On the other side, Xu Wanning looked at Lin Quan who was hesitant to speak, She couldn't help but ask: "If you have anything to say to me, just say it directly."
Lin Quan looked at her deeply, and then asked cautiously: "Sister-in-law, did you quarrel with my brother? "
Xu Wanning was confused: "No, it's fine. Why are we quarreling?"
Besides, she and Lin An were so far apart that they didn't have the capital to quarrel just by using a landline phone.
"But, the way you two talked on the phone is a little too strange."
It's not like they were treating each other like guests, but it seemed overly polite and distant.
They don't look like a couple at all, but more like friends who have been together for many years.
Xu Wanning had to marvel at Lin Quan's carefulness and sensitivity.
She and Lin An were just polite and distant.
Although she clearly knew that she liked Lin An, she could also feel that Lin An liked her.
But after all, they spend too little time together, and it's simply impossible to become warm and intimate all of a sudden.
As for feelings, you still have to get along with them more and more to have them.
