Captain Zheng Wenwu told Zhou Yunzhen the address of the newly established Foreign Affairs Office and gave him a key.
Zhou Yunzhen followed what captain Zheng Wenwu said and came to the room he mentioned.
As soon as Zhou Yunzhen opened the door, a musty smell rushed out from the dark room.
He had to cover his nose and turn on the lights in the house to see what kind of house it was.
This turned out to be a utility room, which was filled with all kinds of household items, and spiders had spun webs in the room. It was obvious that the owner of the room had probably not entered it once a year.
There are still some junk things inside.
The problem was that not only was the house located on the first floor, it was also not far from a smelly public toilet.
When the wind blows, the stench comes over vaguely.
It gives people a very bad feeling and the office environment is quite bad.
Zhou Yunzhen knew at a glance that this was a situation deliberately set by the captain Zheng Wenwu for himself, making him suffer for a long time and living like years.
This is not only a run, but also a censure!
When had she ever offended him and faced such difficulties from Zheng Wenwu? Why does he reject himself so much?
Zhou Yunzhen knocked on the owner's door and politely asked the owner to clean out the things inside.
The owner of the house waved his hand and said generously, "No, please take care of it."
Zhou Yunzhen gave a bitter smile and asked me to clean it up myself? This requires me to pay someone to transport it to a garbage dump for incineration.
I'm afraid I can't get this moving fee without a hundred yuan.
Should I ask the team leader Zheng Wenwu for reimbursement?
He must have tried every possible means to push the envelope and come up with all kinds of high-sounding reasons, just to not let you reimburse him.
Zhou Yunzhen learned about this, and Cai Qichang, director of the correctional education office, said that he couldn't even reimburse the car rental fee.
Cai Qichang, director of the Correctional Services Office, wanted to rent a motorcycle to go to Tianping Foreign Service Station for business, but he was not even willing to reimburse the rental fee.
Cai Qichang, director of the Correctional Services Office, said, "The production efficiency of the brigade is not very good now, and we cannot make ends meet. Reimbursement has to be delayed. It can take as short as three to five months, or as long as a year and a half."
Captain Zheng Wenwu and director of the correctional education office Cai Qichang are completely the same.
Even more so.
Asking him for reimbursement would not only bring about cynicism, but what else would happen?
But if not, how can this room be freed up? How to work?
Come on, just do it yourself.
Zhou Yunzhen had no choice but to pay for a moving company to clear out all the debris in the room.
Then he asked someone to paint the room with putty powder.
After scraping the putty powder, use sandpaper to sand the rough areas of the wall to ensure that the wall is smooth and flat, and then apply primer and topcoat.
After a few days, the whole room had a completely new look.
Zhou Yunzhen bought another set of sofas and coffee tables, which are used to receive customers. This is just for appearance and necessary.
Then he bought two brand new desks and some office equipment, and installed outside telephones.
In this way, in just a few days, the sign of the "Outside Co-organizer" of the Tenth Brigade was put up.
Zhou Yunzhen settled the accounts afterwards and found that nearly two thousand yuan was gone.
If the moving fee is 100 yuan, you can just pay it in advance, and it doesn’t matter whether you report it or not.
But these two thousand yuan are not a small amount of money. It is all my savings.
Let's go find the captain Zheng Wenwu. Maybe there is a one-tenth chance of being reimbursed?
If you don’t go, you’ll have to pay for it yourself; if you go, there’s always hope of reimbursement, right?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yunzhen decided to give it a try.
He came to the office of captain Zheng Wenwu.
Zhou Yunzhen knocked on the door three times, and then the voice of team leader Zheng Wenwu came from inside, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Zhou Yunzhen!"
There was no sound inside, and it took a while before the voice of team leader Zheng Wenwu came, "Come in!"
After Zhou Yunzhen entered, he saw the captain Zheng Wenwu sitting on the chair behind his desk, looking lazy. He said impatiently, "Zhou Yunzhen, what do you want to see me for?!"
"I'm very busy. I don't want to be unable to handle anything myself. You are a clerk, a clerk. If you can't even do anything, what use are you?"
"Don't bother me with even the smallest of things."
Zhou Yunzhen ignored his ridicule and said, "It's not a trivial matter."
Captain Zheng Wenwu looked disdainfully, "What kind of earth-shattering event is that? Are you qualified to take charge of it?"
"It may be a small matter to you, just the money for a few tables of food and drinks. It's not a small matter to me personally." Zhou Yunzhen retorted sarcastically.
Captain Zheng Wenwu was stunned. Are you exposing my shortcomings in person? Are you accusing me of extravagance and waste? Good boy, be brave!
"Oh, is this a big deal for you? Tell me, what's the big deal?" Captain Zheng Wenwu narrowed his eyes and asked in a joking tone.
"Now that the decoration of the external cooperation office has been completed, I bought a set of sofas and coffee tables. They are used for receiving customers and are also necessary."
“Then I bought an office desk and chairs and installed an outside phone.”
"The renovation and addition of sofas, coffee tables, office desks and chairs, outside telephones, etc. totaled a total of two thousand yuan."
"Because it was the labor camp's confidential unit that installed the outside phone, the telecommunications bureau also waived the initial installation fee of 3,000 yuan, otherwise it would have been more money."
Captain Zheng Wenwu's face darkened. He banged his desk and splashed tea. He scolded, "Do you still have organizational discipline? Why don't you make a plan in advance and submit it for approval before proceeding?"
"Behead first and show later? Who are you?"
Zhou Yunzhen did not show weakness, "Captain Zheng, don't beat me up! My request for instructions has been handed over to you a long time ago. It has been sitting on your desk for several days. It's because you didn't approve it, it's not that I didn't submit a plan."
When the captain Zheng Wenwu heard this, he hurriedly turned over his desk and found that there was indeed such a request for instructions. He felt a little timid and he did not approve it.
Because he would not even read any official documents submitted by Zhou Yunzhen and would just put them on the shelf.
Of course he would not admit it. Zheng Wenwu denied it, "No! I have never received such a report."
"Even if there is such a report, even if I approve it, it will be useless."
"Because the economic efficiency of the brigade is not good now, it cannot make ends meet, and there is no hope of realizing the funds advanced by individuals."
Zhou Yunzhen asked: "What does Captain Zheng mean that this reimbursement cannot be cashed out?"
"Yes."
"Then you mean that the external cooperation office can't be established? Because it can't even complete the basic decoration and office equipment."
"I didn't say that." Captain Zheng Wenwu certainly would not admit this.
Zhou Yunzhen said reluctantly: "But that's what you meant in your words."
"In that case, wouldn't it be like falling into a vicious cycle? Because there is no money, we can't set up an external co-organizer, and because we can't set up an external co-organizer, we can't get money."
"Are my words wrong?"
Zhou Yunzhen's words made the captain Zheng Wenwu choked and speechless for a moment. He could not say anything to refute.
