Chapter 362 The money-loving Jia Zhang!
Seeing this heartwarming scene, Jia Dongming felt particularly happy. He smiled and said to Jia Zhang: "Mom! The reason why I don't let Banggeng eat oranges anymore is mainly because it's time for dinner now. I'm worried that he will eat too many oranges and won't be able to eat later. Besides, boys should be raised in poverty. You can't indulge Banggeng like this in the future."
When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming's reminder, she didn't take it seriously at all. She smiled and said to Jia Dongming, "Dongming! When Banggeng is still growing, it's good for his health to eat more fruits."
In the plot of Siheyuan, the reason why Banggeng developed the habit of stealing and eventually became an ungrateful person is closely related to Jia Zhang's excessive doting and indulgence.
After hearing Jia Zhang's answer, Jia Dongming could only shake his head helplessly and change the subject directly, saying to Jia Zhang: "Mom! The steel mill is about to expand, and a group of workers will be recruited at that time. I am the head of the security department, and the factory has given me a quota of three formal workers. I think..."
"Dongming! What did you say? The steel rolling mill gave you three targets for formal workers. Is this true?" When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming mention the work targets, her eyes suddenly lit up. Without waiting for Jia Dongming to finish his words, she couldn't wait to confirm this matter with Jia Dongming.
When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's question and saw her excited expression, he nodded very affirmatively and replied, "Mom! This is absolutely true. I think we...!"
"Dongming! Now the work quota of a formal worker can be sold for 800 yuan. If these three quotas are sold out, won't they be able to sell for more than 2,000 yuan?" Jia Zhang was sure that Jia Dongming had the work quota in his hands, and thought of the current price of a work quota. This made the greedy Jia Zhang's eyes shine with gold. She interrupted Jia Dongming again and said to him excitedly.
Jia Dongming was speechless when he saw that Jia Zhang talked about money all the time. He reminded Jia Zhang with a depressed look on his face: "Mom! Can you stop being so obsessed with money?"
After hearing Jia Dongming's reminder, Jia Zhang realized that her behavior just now was a little wrong. She said to Jia Dongming a little embarrassedly: "Dongming! Mom is afraid of being poor, isn't she? That's why she values money so much."
When Jia Dongming heard what Jia Zhang said and thought of Jia Zhang's character, he could only shake his head helplessly and continued to say to Jia Zhang: "Mom! I am a cadre. If I use my work quota to exchange for money, once someone reports me, I will not only be dismissed, but I will also most likely lose my job."
When Jia Zhang learned that reselling work quotas would lead to Jia Dongming's dismissal, she was really shocked. She asked Jia Dongming half-believingly, "Dongming! Is it really as serious as you said?"
When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's question and saw Jia Zhang's half-believing and half-doubting expression, he nodded very affirmatively and replied, "Mom! This is absolutely true, so don't even think about selling your work quota."
When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming's reminder, she nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and then asked Jia Dongming: "Dongming! Since this work indicator cannot be sold, how do you plan to deal with these three work indicators?"
When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhangshi asking about his idea of arranging the three work targets, he immediately said to Jia Zhangshi, "Mom! Here's my idea. I plan to give these three work targets to my uncle, my eldest uncle, and my second uncle's family, one for each family. As for who they plan to arrange to work in the city, it's up to them to decide."
When Jia Zhang learned of Jia Dongming's true thoughts, she was excited to think that her nephew from her mother's side would be able to work in the city one day. She quickly asked Jia Dongming, "Dongming! Are you really going to give the work quota to your eldest and second uncles?"
When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's question and saw her excited expression, he nodded very affirmatively and answered in a very affirmative tone: "Mom! Our family is living a good life now. We can't just watch our relatives live a hard life in the countryside, right?"
"In the past, my family didn't have the conditions to help my uncle and my uncle. Now I have the ability, and the factory has allocated me three quotas. If I can help, I will help."
When Jia Zhang learned of Jia Dongming's idea, she nodded in agreement and replied happily, "Dongming! You are right. Your two uncles have always had a hard time. If we can help them, we should. Tomorrow I will ask someone to send a message to your uncle and ask your two uncles to come to the city."
When Jia Dongming learned of Jia Zhang's plan, he immediately stopped her and said, "Mom! Don't worry about this matter for now. After all, I haven't received the letter of introduction yet. It won't be too late to inform my uncle and the others after I get the letter of introduction."
When Jia Zhang heard what Jia Dongming said, she nodded in agreement and replied, "Dongming! You are right, Mom is too anxious." "I'm back!" As soon as Jia Zhang finished speaking, Lin Qiuyue's happy voice suddenly came from outside the main hall.
When Jia Dongming saw Lin Qiuyue coming back from get off work, he immediately smiled and said to her, "Qiuyue! Why are you coming back so late today?"
When Lin Qiuyue heard Jia Dongming's question, she smiled and introduced him: "Brother Dongming! Today we are doing inventory at the supply and marketing cooperative, so why did you come back so late? I'll put my bag in the house first, and then go to help Huairu cook."
"Sister-in-law! Dinner is ready. Go wash up and come out to eat." Just as Lin Qiuyue was about to take her bag back to the room, Qin Huairu came out of the kitchen with a bowl and said to Lin Qiuyue with a smile.
"Dad! Dad! Have you heard? The steel mill is planning to expand its recruitment and will hire more than a thousand workers." In the front yard of Yan's house, Yan Jiecheng heard the news that the steel mill was going to expand its recruitment and hurriedly ran back to the courtyard. He saw Yan Bugui watering the flowers in the front yard with a watering can. He excitedly told Yan Bugui the news he had just heard.
When Yan Bugui heard about the steel mill's expansion, he was surprised and asked Yan Jiecheng, "Jiecheng! Who told you this?"
When Yan Jiecheng heard Yan Bugui's question, he immediately introduced him to Yan Bugui: "Dad! Xue Ping, who works as a temporary worker with me, said that his dad is a fitter in the steel mill. Xue Ping said that his dad is trying to find a connection to get him a job in the steel mill."
When Yan Bugui heard what Yan Jiecheng had said, he immediately put down the water scoop in his hand and said, "I'll go ask Lao Yi to see if this is true."
When Yan Jiecheng heard what Yan Bugui said, he anxiously reminded Yan Bugui: "Dad! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You must find a way to help me get a work quota."
When Yan Bugui heard what Yan Jiecheng said, he did not immediately respond to Yan Jiecheng's request. Instead, he quickly walked to the door of Yi Zhonghai's house in the middle courtyard and shouted inside: "Old Yi! Are you there?"
Today, when an old lady went to the market to buy vegetables, she cut half a pound of pork head meat at the delicatessen shop. At this time, Yi Zhonghai was drinking a little wine and eating pork head meat. He was so happy.
Yi Zhonghai's family is wealthy, but in order to hide the fact that his family is wealthy, he is very low-key when it comes to eating. If he wants to eat meat on weekdays, he will arrange for his aunt to go to the delicatessen to buy some. The family rarely cooks meat except during the New Year and other festivals.
Because people in the old city rarely visit their neighbors during mealtime, Yi Zhonghai frowned when he heard Yan Bugui's shouting outside the house, and quickly asked the aunt, "Wife! Were you seen by the Yan family when you bought meat today?"
When the aunt heard Yi Zhonghai's question, she shook her head subconsciously and replied, "No! When I went to the delicatessen to buy meat, I didn't meet anyone I knew. How could I be discovered by the Yan family?"
When Yi Zhonghai heard the affirmative answer from the aunt, he thought of Yan Bugui's character and quickly instructed the aunt, "Wife! Yan Bugui is a calculating person. Hurry up and put the pig head away, so that Yan Bugui won't find out that we are secretly eating meat at home."
The aunt who was eating heard Yi Zhonghai's instructions, immediately picked up the bowl of pig's head and walked towards the kitchen.
After Yi Zhonghai saw the lady put away the pig's head, he stood up from the table and walked towards the door. He asked Yan Bugui who was standing outside, "Old Yan! What do you want to talk to me about at this time?"
