Zheng Lirong knew that Lin Nianhe was anxious, so she didn't let her wait too long. After she sent Lin Nianhe away, she immediately went to two factories to find acquaintances. It was also her luck that the people she was looking for were all in the factory today.
After asking what needed to be asked, Zheng Lirong arrived at the railway guest house at five o'clock in the afternoon.
When the waiter heard that Zheng Lirong was looking for Lin Nianhe, he immediately asked her to wait with a smile on his face. He poured a cup of hot water first, and then went up to call Lin Nianhe.
Zheng Lirong held the water glass and was stunned.
The Railway Guest House is not open to the public, and the waiters here are very arrogant. What's wrong now... Moreover, Lin Nianhe is not from the railway. How did she come to live here?
Zheng Lirong sipped her saliva and unconsciously thought wrongly, thinking that this must be due to Lin Nianhe's family background.
Indeed, no serious person would have thought that Lin Nianhe could live here only because of his mouth.
Lin Nianhe and the other three came down quickly. The waiter walked beside Lin Nianhe, smiling like a trumpet flower.
Because Lin Nianhe said that for a good comrade like her, a letter of commendation must be sent not only to the guest house, but also to the railway. Everyone should follow her as an example.
A letter of praise in this era is of great significance.
It is very useful whether it is to evaluate the outstanding and advanced, or to get promoted and go to university.
Therefore, the comrade waiter looked at Lin Nianhe as if he were looking at his half-sister. Not only did he send them to the door, he also repeatedly asked them to pay attention to safety on the road.
Zheng Lirong was dumbfounded.
She couldn't help but ask Lin Nianhe: "Sister, has she got anything into your hands?"
Such excessive attentiveness can no longer be explained by relationships!
Zheng Lirong felt that the waiter might not smile like this when seeing her leader.
Lin Nianhe burst out laughing, and she only said: "She has professional ethics and serves the people!"
Zheng Lirong: "..."
She didn't believe a single punctuation mark.
But she didn't ask any more questions and said to the three girls: "It's dinner time. I'll treat you three to dinner."
Zheng Lirong took the three of them to the best state-owned restaurant in the provincial capital. She asked the three of them what they wanted to eat. When everyone politely said to her that they could just have a bite, she went to order four hard dishes and one A basin of soup, four bowls of rice and four bottles of soda.
She knew that Lin Nianhe and the others came here mainly to find jobs, so she didn't hesitate and told the news she had learned while waiting for the food:
"I asked the match factory, and the director told me that it's fine for your brigade to do the work of pasting matchboxes. It costs four yuan for 10,000 pieces, but the factory can't handle delivery. There is no such precedent. .”
"I also asked about the textile factory. The textile factory in our provincial capital mainly produces fabrics and clothes. They don't make gadgets like headbands. However, their factory director told me that Lanxian Textile Factory can make headbands. .”
Zheng Lirong was a little embarrassed: "Sister, I don't know anyone in Lan County, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help."
Zheng Lirong sighed in her heart.
The match factory doesn't care about transportation, so this job can't be done, otherwise all the hard-earned money will have to be spent on train tickets. Not to mention the textile factory, there is nothing to do at all.
She looked at the three girls and felt that their trip was in vain, and she was annoyed that she could not help.
Lin Nianhe and the three of them all laughed.
Zheng Lirong looked at them confused: "What's wrong?"
Lin Nianhe said: "Sister, our principal's sister works in a textile factory. I can just think of something over there."
"That's it, that's great." Zheng Lirong breathed a sigh of relief and said as if she was remembering something, "I almost forgot to mention it because of my poor memory. Sister, the textile factory told me that Lanxian Textile Although the factory makes head flowers, they can’t sell much throughout the year. If they don’t outsource this work, the internal employees can handle it themselves.”
"But textile factories all have the job of picking up threads. How much does it cost per pound? You can ask this."
Lin Nianhe understood, nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, sister, I understand."
Zheng Lirong apologized: "I'm sorry, sister, I can't help you much."
"Sister, don't say that," Lin Nianhe took a sip of soda and said, "I want to meet the director of the match factory. Is it convenient for you?"
Zheng Lirong was stunned and realized that Lin Nianhe didn't want to give up this job, so she said, "Okay, he is an old classmate of my dad's, almost like my uncle. I will take you to his house tomorrow."
"good."
After talking, the dishes are ready.
The four of them didn't mention finding a job anymore, but talked about interesting stories about Zheng Shan and Bai Xiaojun, which was not boring at all.
After finishing the meal, it was already dark.
Zheng Lirong sent the three of them back to the guest house, made an appointment with Lin Nianhe to pick her up and take her to the match factory director's house tomorrow night, and then left.
The three girls went upstairs, and Wang Shumei and Wen Lan squeezed into Lin Nianhe's room.
"Nian He, I just did the math. If you exclude the round trip expenses, you can earn up to RMB 18 from 10,000 matchboxes." Wang Shumei poured herself a glass of water and said with her hands on her hips.
Wen Lan sat down on the stool, stretched out her hand towards Wang Shumei, and motioned for her to pour herself a glass. She said: "Actually, this is quite a lot. You can earn five or six yuan a month, which is sixty or seventy yuan a year. It's almost as much as half a year's work for a strong laborer."
The Shili Brigade was rich, and the work points were more valuable - six and five points per work point.
If you can earn an extra sixty or seventy yuan a year, it is a very fortunate thing for most people.
Wang Shumei handed the water cup to the two of them, nodded and said: "I think so too, although it is less, it is better than nothing."
What farmers are least afraid of is work.
Lin Nianhe shook his head: "It can't be calculated like this - in fact, it is only during the slack months in winter that everyone can concentrate on making matchboxes. When spring sowing and autumn harvest come, who will have the energy to do this? Besides, if you do this, you are not a fellow countryman. We worked hard to light lamps and boil oil, but in the end all the hard-earned money was given to the railway bureau."
"There's nothing we can do about it. There's no match factory in Lan County." Wang Shumei sat down and sighed.
Wen Lan still insisted on her point of view: "I still think it can be done. This work is not difficult, and even children can do it."
Wang Shumei looked at Lin Nianhe and asked her, "You want to see the factory director because you want to persuade him to let the factory be responsible for picking up and delivering goods?"
Lin Nianhe held his chin with one hand, nodded first, and then shook his head.
Wen Lan: "Melon girl."
Wang Shumei: "Do you want to do it but know it's impossible, or do you have other ideas?"
Lin Nianhe raised the corner of his mouth and smiled brightly at them: "I don't do this kind of loss-making business, and cheap labor can't be so cheap! Therefore, they must do the work of picking up and delivering goods."
"But I'm not just looking for him for this matter. I'm planning to let the match factory open a branch factory in our place."
Wen Lan: "Why don't you want to go to heaven?"
Wang Shumei: "Has the director of the match factory also got something into your hands?"
