Chapter 338 I work hard, not to find a man to marry
New Year’s Eve in 61 was on February 2th.
On February 2, internal employees of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau had a New Year's Eve dinner in their own cafeteria, and family members of some leaders also attended.
Liao Bowen's wife Ding Chunhua, after dealing with everyone's toasts, took the initiative to sit next to Zhou Rong and said with a smile: "I heard that there is a young, beautiful and talented section chief in our bureau. Today I finally saw her, and it is just as the rumors say."
It was clearly a compliment, but Zhou Rong sensed murderous intent in Ding Chunhua's words and expression.
There seemed to be a rumor in the unit recently that she and Liao Bowen were relatives, which was why she was given special care.
She and Ding Chunhua had no connection, but the other party was hostile to her, probably because of some misunderstanding caused by the rumors.
Zhou Rong smiled and said, "Comrade Ding, you are too kind. I am a mother of three children. My eldest son is already in high school. I worry about trivial matters at home every day, and my hair has turned white. The term young and beautiful is not appropriate to describe me.
As for the term 'brilliant', I don't deserve it. Our unit is full of talented people, and many of our colleagues are more capable than me."
Ding Chunhua joked: "If they were really more capable than you, wouldn't they all be section chiefs?"
Zhou Rong leaned close to Ding Chunhua and whispered, "Many colleagues have gone to the countryside or are about to go to the countryside in the past two years. I am just here to fill in for a while. When they come back, I will be transferred to another position."
Ding Chunhua: "Really? Comrade Xiao Zhou is still young, why don't you consider finding another one? One of the workshop directors in our unit was in an arranged marriage. He and his wife had different interests and they got divorced. How about introducing her to you?"
Zhou Rong: "No need, my ex-husband divorced me under the pretext of arranged marriage. I swore that I would never marry again in this life and would raise my three children alone.
I have a job now, an income, and family. Men are just a nuisance to me. I don't like them taking advantage of their status as husbands to boss me around. It makes me annoyed just thinking about it.
It’s better to be single, without the supervision of parents-in-law, and without having to get involved in the various trivial matters of the husband’s family.”
Ding Chunhua: "Do you really think so?"
Zhou Rong: "Of course! I work hard, not to find a man to marry and work hard for someone else's family all my life. I just want to use my knowledge to make more contributions to the country to thank the organization for cultivating me."
Seeing that Zhou Rong was serious, Ding Chunhua gradually put aside his suspicions and said with a smile, "You have a high level of ideological awareness. It makes sense for the unit to promote you to section chief."
The two chatted for a while, Zhou Rong praised Ding Chunhua, and the two called each other "sister" and "sister".
Zhou Rong learned from Ding Chunhua's words that she was the personnel director of the automobile manufacturing plant, and his eyes lit up.
Since the establishment of the people's communes in urban areas, many units have liked to exchange supplies in the name of "mutual support."
Zhou Rong deliberately revealed to Ding Chunhua that there was a vegetable base and a breeding farm in Zhoujiawan, and also told about the miserable lives of the villagers due to the disaster.
After listening to this, Ding Chunhua seemed to be thinking about something.
Although the automobile manufacturing plant had reclaimed some corners to grow vegetables, it was still unable to meet the vegetable supply needs of nearly a thousand people in the entire factory. Meat, in particular, was in extremely short supply. The workers could not eat well, so they complained privately and said that the cadres were corrupt and had withheld their food.
As the head of the personnel department, she always gets blamed for no reason.
Ding Chunhua thought about it and asked tentatively: "Can the breeding farm and vegetable base in your hometown allocate supplies on their own?"
Zhou Rong: "It's OK if the quantity is less, but not if the quantity is more. Our production team has opened two vegetable stores in the county and the provincial capital respectively. The government allows us to distribute the goods. The rest must be sent to major supply and marketing cooperatives, food stores, and vegetable stores to help the organization solve the problem of shortage of non-staple food."
Ding Chunhua: "Can you talk to the production team leader and have them send us some vegetables, pork, and eggs regularly? I'll ask the comrades in the warehouse to sort out some old iron tools for them, which can be used to make hoes and shovels."
Zhou Rong smiled and said: "It takes a lot of money to make hoes and shovels with old iron tools. Now the village has suffered a disaster and there is no rice harvest. We rely entirely on the vegetables and livestock in the base to maintain the livelihood of the villagers.
Although everyone had not received much education, they were still able to figure out simple accounts. Eggs, pork and vegetables were all in short supply and could be exchanged for money wherever they were supplied.
A few days ago, our production team leader wrote to me and said that someone from the tractor factory contacted him and wanted to exchange two new tractors for two months' supply of eggs, meat and vegetables, and asked me whether this exchange was cost-effective.
It's the end of the year now and I've been busy with work, so I haven't had time to reply. I think the tractor factory's proposal can be considered. If the village has a tractor, it will be convenient to transport goods and it can also help with plowing the land. I plan to write to the team leader tonight to agree to this matter.
The captain can only mobilize a limited amount of supplies. If he supplies the tractor factory, he won’t be able to supply our automobile factory.
Sister, we get along so well. I will tell the captain about your proposal in my reply. As for whether the village will agree, I dare not promise. "
Ding Chunhua pulled Zhou Rong and said anxiously: "From your description, your area should be a mountainous area. With the current road conditions, tractors cannot plow the land. Moreover, the cargo box is so small that it can't hold more than a few baskets of goods. The speed is also slow, which is not practical at all!
Don't rush to reply. I will ask the leader to exchange two old trucks with your production team. You can supply us with goods for two months."
Zhou Rong: "The old cars in our factory are probably all returned for repair. If there are serious quality problems, if they break down on the way to the countryside, we will have nothing to do but cry."
Ding Chunhua: "Then I'll trade it for a new car, and you can give me more shares."
Zhou Rong: "I am not the head of the village, so I cannot decide the specific amount of supply. I will write to the captain and ask for his opinion."
Ding Chunhua: "No problem. If your production team leader agrees, you can come to the automobile factory to find me and we will start supplying goods after the New Year."
There are textile factories, towel factories, thermos factory, farm tool factory, etc. near the automobile factory. Since they are going to make such a fuss, they have to maximize the profits.
Zhou Rong thought about it and said, "If we only supply goods for two months, people will get too greedy and it will be hard to do our work in the future. How about we supply goods once a week? If we continue for a year, it will not only improve the workers' lives, but also avoid complaints."
Ding Chunhua: "You have thought it through carefully. Let's do it this way!"
Zhou Rong: "Sister Ding, I have a very realistic question in mind. I heard that driving a truck is difficult. If the production team leader agrees to the exchange, it won't work if no one knows how to drive!"
Ding Chunhua: "That's easy. Let your production team send two people to our factory to learn how to drive. We will also teach them how to repair cars. All problems will be solved."
Zhou Rong: "Sister Ding's advice is very good. I thank you on behalf of the villagers.
It’s just that rural people have little education and learn slowly. If the two people sent here don’t learn, it will be troublesome. Not only will they waste the masters’ time, but they will also let down Sister Ding’s kindness.
Can you give us a few more places to learn how to drive? I'll ask the captain to send all the smart people in the village, and there will be one or two who can learn how to drive."
Ding Chunhua smiled and said, "As long as this can be done, it won't be a problem to have more people learn to drive. Ask them to send four people first. If their qualifications are not good enough, we will replace them immediately."
Zhou Rong: "Okay, I'll write a letter to the captain when I get back and tell him the good news!"
