Chapter 196 Work Indicators!
Chapter 196 Work Indicators!
As they had to go to work in the afternoon, the dinner party at the textile factory was officially declared over at around 1:00 p.m. Liu Xiangqian took four envelopes from Deputy Director Gao and handed them to Zhang Huanchun, Jia Dongming and others, smiling and saying, "Captain Zhang! Director Jia! Captain Lin, Deputy Captain Zhao! If it weren't for you guys, our textile factory would have suffered heavy losses this time, so this is a little gift from our textile factory, I hope you won't refuse it."
When Zhang Huanchun saw the envelope in Liu Xiangqian's hand, he thought the textile factory was going to give them money, so he quickly waved his hand and refused, "Director Liu! Solving cases is our duty as police officers. If we accept this money, we will be making a mistake, so please take it back!"
When Liu Xiangqian heard Zhang Huanchun's words, he immediately realized that Zhang Huanchun had misunderstood his meaning, and hurriedly explained to Zhang Huanchun with a smile: "Captain Zhang! You misunderstood us. As a leading cadre, how could we do such a thing that violates the law and discipline."
"Our textile factory is about to expand. We will recruit 300 apprentices for this expansion. This envelope contains a letter of introduction for recruiting apprentices. If anyone in your family needs a job, you can take the letter of introduction to our textile factory to report."
When Zhang Huanchun learned that the envelope contained a job introduction letter, he was immediately tempted. After all, he had two younger sisters who were unemployed, and this job introduction letter was undoubtedly very important to their family.
However, considering the value of the current job, Zhang Huanchun finally resisted the temptation of the letter of introduction and declined politely: "Director Liu! This letter of introduction is simply too precious. We cannot accept it no matter what. So we appreciate your kindness."
At first, Lin Minghua and Zhao Baoguo, like Zhang Huanchun, thought that the envelope contained money and also wanted to reject the kindness of the textile factory. But when they learned that the envelope contained a job introduction letter, they immediately became a little uneasy and looked at Zhang Huanchun with expectation.
In Liu Xiangqian's subconscious mind, if Zhang Huanchun knew that they were offering him a job, he would definitely accept the letter of introduction without hesitation. However, Zhang Huanchun still refused. This made Liu Xiangqian admire Zhang Huanchun's character and he had the idea of making friends with him.
Seeing the reactions of Lin Minghua and Zhao Baoguo, Liu Xiangqian smiled and persuaded Zhang Huanchun: "Captain Zhang! This time our factory is expanding its recruitment and needs to recruit a total of 300 people. In addition to the 50 places reserved for us, the rest will be handed over to the Street Office."
"And the fact that our superiors were able to agree to our expansion is also inseparable from your support. If you hadn't promptly disrupted the theft case in our factory's financial department and successfully uncovered the pests hiding in our factory, our application for expansion would not have been approved so smoothly."
"Of course! This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that you helped us recover the stolen wages, which is equivalent to saving our political lives in disguise. Therefore, these few quotas are not worth mentioning at all compared to your help to us."
Jia Dongming did not need work targets, but he saw the reactions of Lin Minghua and Zhao Baoguo. Seeing that Liu Xiangqian had said so much, Jia Dongming smiled and said to Zhang Huanchun, "Captain Zhang! Since Director Liu has said so, let's not reject Director Liu's intention."
Zhang Huanchun heard Jia Dongming's advice, thought of his sister, and finally nodded and thanked Liu Xiangqian: "Director Liu! Since you have said so much, I will not be polite with you. We will accept this letter of introduction."
Zhang Huanchun took the envelope from Liu Xiangqian and handed it to Jia Dongming and others according to the names on the envelopes. Then he said goodbye to Liu Xiangqian, "Director Liu! It's getting late. We have to go back to the branch office to work. We'll leave first."
With Liu Xiangqian and others watching, Zhang Huanchun and Jia Dongming rode their bicycles and left the textile factory. Thinking of the work quotas given by the textile factory, Lin Minghua said to Zhang Huanchun and Jia Dongming happily, "Captain Zhang! Deputy Captain Jia! This textile factory is really generous. They actually gave us four work quotas."
After hearing what Lin Minghua said, Jia Dongming said to Lin Minghua while riding his bicycle, "Comrade Minghua! Director Liu just said that if we fail to solve the case in time and recover the stolen wages, they will be held accountable by the higher authorities. These four work indicators are actually nothing compared to the careers of Director Liu and his colleagues." After hearing what Jia Dongming said, Zhang Huanchun reminded Jia Dongming with a serious face, "Comrade Dongming! You are right. We did save the political lives of Director Liu and his colleagues in disguise, but our behavior is more or less a bit illegal, so what happened today will only happen this time and will not happen again!"
When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Huanchun's reminder, he showed an indifferent expression on his face and replied with a smile: "Captain Zhang! And Director Liu just said that if we don't want it, they will also hand it over to the street office. As long as we don't use the quota to sell for money, our behavior will not be considered illegal."
The four of them rode to an intersection. Because the steel mill and the branch were in different directions, Jia Dongming said goodbye to Zhang Huanchun and others at the intersection, and then rode his bicycle towards the steel mill.
Halfway through riding, Jia Dongming suddenly remembered the house that the system rewarded him. He had not visited it since he went to Gulou Street yesterday to get the house deed, so he changed direction and rode towards Gulou Street.
After riding for a few minutes, Jia Dongming saw a familiar figure from behind. He wondered in his heart, "What is going on? Why do I run into Yu Li wherever I go these past two days?"
Despite what he was thinking, Jia Dongming still squeezed the brakes and slowly pulled his bike to the side of the road. He curiously called out to Yu Li, who was carrying a bag on her back, "Yu Li! Where are you going? Why are you carrying such a big bag?"
Yu Li, who was about to stay at her sister's house, was stunned when she heard Jia Dongming's call. She subconsciously stopped and saw Jia Dongming sitting on a bicycle. She walked up to Jia Dongming with a look of surprise and asked in confusion, "Brother Dongming! Why are you here?"
Jia Dongming heard Yu Li's question and saw her puzzled expression. He smiled and replied, "Yu Li! I'm here to do something. Where are you going?"
When Yu Li heard Jia Dongming's question, she suddenly remembered that she had divorced Yan Jiecheng. She introduced to Jia Dongming with a serious expression: "Brother Dongming! I have divorced Yan Jiecheng. Considering that my mother is still in the hospital, in order to avoid upsetting her, I plan to stay at my sister's house for a while."
When Yu Li had an argument with Yan Jiecheng yesterday, she proposed to divorce Yan Jiecheng. At that time, Jia Dongming thought that Yu Li was just saying that in anger. After all, in this era, even if a couple doesn't get along, they rarely get divorced.
What Jia Dongming didn't expect was that Yu Li actually divorced Yan Jiecheng. This shocked Jia Dongming so much that he asked Yu Li in disbelief, "Yu Li! Are you really divorcing Yan Jiecheng? I thought you were just talking in anger yesterday."
When Yu Li heard Jia Dongming's answer and saw his surprised expression, and thought of what Yan Jiecheng had done, she replied with disgust, "They say that if you marry a man, you get food and clothing. I don't ask for great wealth when I marry Yan Jiecheng, but at least I want to have enough food and clothing, right?"
"What's the result? I have to pay for my meals and accommodation myself. Now even my mother is sick, and Yan Jiecheng, this son-in-law, is reluctant to spend even a little money. What use do I have for a man like this?"
After hearing what Yu Li said, Jia Dongming thought about what happened at the hospital meeting yesterday. He comforted Yu Li with a sympathetic look on his face: "Yu Li! Since you have already divorced Jie Cheng, I will not persuade you. Where is your sister's home? I will take you there!"
