Ye Zhiqiu rode his bicycle and hurried back to the factory.
It was not easy to spend these two days and three nights together. Two young men and women had to spend every day together.
But because of Feng Yuanzheng's death, Ye Zhiqiu has always abided by his duties and never dared to overstep the mark.
So the relationship between the two of them became even better.
Just like when Ye Zhiqiu first called Feng Xiaomei "wife", she ignored him. He said to her: "I call you wife, not because you are my future wife, but because I have decided that you are my wife."
This kind of thing happened a lot in the past two days, because Ye Zhiqiu needed to change her mood, otherwise she would just keep it all in. Whether it was letting her scold or getting angry, she needed to vent her emotions anyway.
After arriving at the factory, he was actually late. But Ye Zhiqiu didn't care. There was no way anyone would embarrass him because of this.
After slowly parking the bicycle, Li Jie, who was on duty, happened to walk by. He stepped forward and said a few words of concern. Ye Zhiqiu didn't say much, just said that he was busy for a few days.
"Brother, you helped with this Section Chief Zou thing, right? I guessed it myself."
"Hey, Brother Li, don't make random guesses! Zou Langtao used his own ability to tinker with supplies and was promoted for his meritorious service. We can't make random guesses."
"Brother... I didn't say he was tinkering with supplies, you just admitted it yourself..."
After a few words with Li Jie, Ye Zhiqiu returned to his office. Fang Zhengyi and Guan Yougui followed him in, initially showing some concern. After Ye Zhiqiu explained that something had happened at his girlfriend's home and that it was no longer a problem, they reported on their work over the past few days.
What could possibly have happened? It was just some mission. The good news was that I had exchanged the things I brought back that night for canned pork, canned fruit, and some cloth.
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "This is great! This way, our factory's year-end benefits will be better."
Guan Yougui happily replied, "Yes, Captain, you don't know. According to our understanding, although supplies are in short supply this year, our factory's year-end benefits should be better than last year."
Fang Zhengyi agreed, saying, "It's much better. Last year's year-end benefits were pretty much the same across the factory, with fewer items. This year, everyone's having a heated discussion about what's in the warehouse, and everyone basically knows what's in the warehouse. So, we can have a good year."
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and nodded, then remembered that today was Laba Festival. He asked the two of them, "Today is Laba Festival. Does the factory have any plans?"
The two shook their heads and said, "Captain, not only is our factory not making any plans for Laba Festival this year, but other units are doing the same. The ingredients for Laba porridge are actually all rationed grains. Food is so scarce right now, and we have to go all out to complete the transportation of supplies for the New Year. We can't afford to do this anymore."
Ye Zhiqiu sighed, "Yes, they say that whether you have money or not, you go home to celebrate the New Year. It's the same with us now. Whether we have food or not, we still need to supply supplies for the New Year so that the people can have a good time!"
Fang Zhengyi nodded and said, "Our brewery has already issued a notice. We will work hard until the morning of New Year's Eve to supply beer with all our strength so that people in need can buy beer."
Ye Zhiqiu knew about this because it was a document issued by the higher authorities and he, a small cadre, had also read it.
The brewery is always present during major holidays and is always one of the units working on the front lines, so there is nothing strange about it.
After chatting for a while, the two of them left to arrange their work. Ye Zhiqiu stood up and walked towards the logistics department. Zou Langtao was promoted to the head of the procurement department yesterday, although he only had a few soldiers under him.
As for Liu Wenjie, he had been transferred to become workshop director, apparently to make room for Ye Zhiqiu. Later, he was mistakenly promoted to deputy section chief, but he failed to achieve results. He was then transferred to the warehouse to retire, making room for Zou Langtao.
It's very cruel. If he can't get supplies, he won't be able to keep his position even if he is given a regular position!
Zou Langtao will definitely be able to hold his position because Ye Zhiqiu will definitely help him. These people will be his connections in the future, and he must support them to hold their position. But he can't be underestimated. His father sacrificed his life, but comrades and old leaders like Wu Shengli are active everywhere!
Coming to the office here, Ye Zhiqiu looked through the transparent glass and saw Zou Langtao concentrating on looking at documents.
This office was shared by several section chiefs, so Ye Zhiqiu didn't knock on the door and just opened it and walked in.
Zou Langtao raised his head when he heard the voice. When he saw that it was Ye Zhiqiu, he put down the documents in his hand and smiled.
"Brother Zou, hey, congratulations!"
"Haha, congratulations!"
Ye Zhiqiu took the cigarette from Zou Langtao, struck a match, and lit it. He then asked with concern, "How's your partner doing? The other day, Uncle Ye came over to talk to the boss about your leave request, and I was there listening."
Ye Zhiqiu took a long puff of cigarette before replying, "Alas, this was a huge blow to her. I've been with her these past few days, and now she's finally recovered a little. I plan to go back to her place after get off work to keep her company. I'm really worried about her being all alone!"
Zou Langtao nodded, then said to Ye Zhiqiu, "You should write the marriage application to your boss first, but don't write the date. After all, you are still unmarried, so if someone makes trouble, it would be bad if they find out that you are having an affair.
But if we have this application, when someone else does this, we can fill in the date earlier. It will prove that you have the intention and action to get married, and there will be no problem. "
Ye Zhiqiu opened his mouth wide. He had never thought of this. Could this thing be used to cause trouble?
Zou Langtao noticed this, so he explained, "Some people have heart problems, so they look at everyone with a strange look. There's nothing wrong with us doing this, it's just to prevent us from encountering such people."
Ye Zhiqiu came back to his senses and nodded. Only then did he remember that even if he whistled at a girl on the street at this moment, if she called him a hooligan, he might be arrested. Calm down!
He quickly thanked Zou Langtao, and then wrote the marriage application under his guidance.
The two chatted a lot in low voices, including the fact that they were too far away and might be late.
The marriage application was really not suitable for Ye Zhiqiu to take, so Zou Langtao helped him deliver it and explained the situation to him, so it didn't matter if he was late.
After leaving the logistics office, Ye Zhiqiu smiled and shook his head. It’s really good to have connections!
Ye Zhiqiu did not go back directly, but went to the administrative building and found Chen Yimin. He asked about the health of his master and his wife, and explained to this master uncle the things he needed to do recently.
