Chapter 127 Level 4 Workers and Level 8 Workers (page 12)
Cui Mingliang so "deliberately" put in good words for Xiang Yunduan and worked hard to improve him, but he really had no other purpose.
To put it bluntly, it is very simple. Cui Mingliang values Xiang Yunduan's ability, so he wants to support him.
Of course, whether it was the pair of gold-locked silver bracelets that Xiang Yunduan gave to his children before, or the fact that Xiang Yunduan could help him improve his political performance, these were also reasons, but the most important thing was the cultivation of a young junior.
Some things cannot be explained clearly. Probably in Cui Mingliang's heart, Xiang Yunduan was a young man who was completely discovered by him. He is also very capable. He has become famous several times within half a year of joining the factory. He also knows how to advance and retreat, and is also good at interpersonal communication. Very good at it.
Of course he would promote such a junior.
Collecting money is collecting money, but it does not mean that the person who collects the money only cares about money. The person who collects the money also has a love for talents.
After coming out of Director Wei's office, Cui Mingliang went to contact several other leaders privately. Since there was a meeting to discuss, there must be good communication before the meeting.
On the other side, Xiang Yunduan certainly didn't know that Cui Mingliang was running for him.
It is already a happy event for him to pass the assessment and become a third-level worker. In addition, today sixteen more apprentices have successfully passed the assessment of first-level workers, which can be said to be even more joyous.
Therefore, the apprentices discussed asking him, the master, to go to the restaurant next time.
Xiang Yunduan couldn't refuse, so he could only accept it.
The place where he went to eat was none other than Fujude Roast Duck Restaurant, which he had not been to for a while.
The last time he came to this place, he invited his younger brother Xiang Yunlong's driver to dinner.
Unexpectedly, things would turn around, and this time it was his own apprentice's turn to treat him.
Including himself, there were seventeen people in total, so he asked for a large private room and set up two tables.
There is nothing to say about the food. In addition to the roast duck, there are other specialty dishes on the whole duck banquet. The wine we drank was the same red wine we drank last time.
Today was a treat for the disciples, but they refused to let Xiang Yunduan pay. He said it was because of the filial piety of the disciples, so Xiang Yunduan didn't argue, but he paid for the wine.
Because the output of wine in this era is not high and the technology is relatively complex, the price is still quite high, much higher than that of liquor, even Maotai cannot compare.
Everyone is happy with the meal.
Because these apprentices passed the assessment and could officially become first-level workers after the new year, not only did their wages increase, but their status in the factory was also greatly improved, so they were very excited. Even though the price of this meal was not low, no one frowned. .
……
"Hey, have you been drinking?"
After dinner, Xiang Yunduan did not go back to the courtyard, but went to Qiao Mohe's house.
"Let me see if Suli has learned the backflip!"
Xiang Yunduan leaned on Qiao Mohe and said with a smile.
Suli is the name of the civet cat he gave to Qiao Mohe.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you drunk? You smell of alcohol!" Qiao Mohe said with a frown.
"Drunk? Believe it or not, I'm even worse when I'm drunk? I have a set of Drunken Boxing, which I've never done before. I'll let you see it later, and I'll keep it in mind. After you see it, you'll get drunk too!" Xiang Yunduan reached out and picked it up! On Qiao Mohe's white, tender and soft chin, he said with a smile.
Although he drank a lot of wine, given his physical condition, he could only be considered tipsy at most. At this moment, he was just using the alcohol to have fun.
He has been quite busy during this period, and he has not been to Qiao Mohe very often. When meeting him now, he couldn't help but feel distracted.
Qiao Mohe didn't know if it was because she had been enjoying herself like a fish in water in the past six months, but she looked more graceful and moisturized than when they first met.
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about! There is no formality!"
Although Qiao Mohe said she was disgusting, she was very honest physically. When she heard that the little man was going to fight her with a "new boxing technique" that she had never fought before, she could no longer suppress her anticipation.
At this age, she is most willing to box.
After entering the room, Qiao Mohe first helped Xiang Yunduan sit on the edge of the bed, then went to fetch a basin of hot water. He first wiped Xiang Yunduan's hands and face, then washed his feet, and then quietly Quietly turn off the lights and go to bed.
"Meow~"
In the darkness, it didn't take long for meowing sounds that were thrilling to the bones. They were long and short, high and low, intermittent and weeping, and I couldn't tell what the emotion was.
Fortunately, Qiao Mohe lived in a small courtyard with a single family. Even if the cat meowed until midnight, it would not affect other people's homes. If it were a large courtyard like the one where Xiang Yunduan lived, I am afraid that it would cause trouble this night. Public outrage.
……
The footsteps of the New Year are getting closer and closer, and it is already the end of the twelfth lunar month.
Although the workers are still at work, the courtyard has gradually become lively.
Walking in the alley, you can occasionally hear the sound of children setting off firecrackers.
In the courtyard, every household has begun to prepare New Year's goods. Although they basically don't visit relatives these days, it is the New Year after all. After working hard for a year, they will more or less prepare something that they usually can't bear to eat. My family is relatively well-off. Maybe even make a new outfit for the child.
Affected by this atmosphere, Xiang Yunduan also began to prepare.
After get off work today, he went to the department store and bought a new pair of leather shoes. At the same time, he also bought some dried fruits such as peanuts, melon seeds, and walnuts to eat during the Chinese New Year.
"Oh, terminal, I said I haven't seen you back for a long time. It turned out that you went shopping in the store. What good things are you carrying in this hand?"
As soon as he entered the yard, Yan Bugui came up to him, his little eyes looking straight at the thing in his hand.
"Is there something wrong, Third Uncle?" Xiang Yunduan asked.
"Isn't it the Chinese New Year soon? As the third uncle in this yard, I also have to serve the neighbors in the yard, so I decided to write this couplet for the people in the yard in the past few days. You must also do it, terminal. Do you need it?" Yan Bugui said.
"Of course you need it. In addition to the couplets, you also have to write two blessing characters for me. By the way, doesn't Third Aunt know how to cut window grilles? Cut some for me too, and I will put them up at home. It will look festive." Xiang Yun Duan said.
He is not planning to return to his hometown in Mentougou during the Chinese New Year.
During this period, he also took the time to go back, but his family members were quite busy and had to go to work every day. He didn't eat at home, but in the big cafeteria. When he went back, he didn't even see his family a few times, so he simply ate there. Not going back.
However, this situation probably won't last long. After the New Year, the big cafeteria will probably be disbanded soon.
It won't be too late for him to go back a few more times. During this period, he used the space of the Wolf Fang Pendant to stock up on a lot of things.
Forget about celebrating the New Year this year, just call your younger brother Xiang Yunlong over and eat and drink together.
Speaking of Xiang Yunlong, this kid has grown up a lot since he moved to Beiluoguxiang. Perhaps because he went on several long-distance trips with his master, he looks much more capable, and his previous out-of-the-box temperament has also restrained a lot. .
"Of course there is no problem with this, but, terminal, whether you are writing couplets or cutting window grilles, you need paper, and it's not just ordinary paper, it has to be that kind of bright red paper.
