That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 688: Sure enough, there is no pattern
There has been a saying since ancient times that "there are 360 ​​professions, and every profession has its own top talent", and each profession has its own tricks.

The "Art of Being an Official" is the most profound one. An official is in charge and has power over others. Therefore, due to the dispersion of various powers, this subject has continued to flourish for thousands of years.

From a scientific point of view, if a method like "showing one's power" has lasted for thousands of years without losing its effectiveness, then it must have its reason and its effect.

To sum it up in one sentence - it is simple and easy to use, especially for the little kids who have just graduated from school. It has a better killing effect and has the special effect of knocking them out with a stick, so it is widely used in various occasions of "transforming new recruits".

Li Ye had experienced a lot of tough times when he was in the workplace in his previous life.

When he came up, he was hit with a stick, leaving a big bump on his head. Then the other person said, "This bump is very dangerous. You need to apply some gentian violet or safflower oil or something like that."

Then Li Ye asked: "Where can I buy safflower oil?"

The other party replied enthusiastically: "I have it here. I'll give you a friendly price, but you have to remember my kindness and repay me in the future."

I'll repay you!
Everyone who enters the workplace will go through a process of maturity, from being timid and submissive in the beginning, forcing a smile when faced with a show of power, to laughing it off and holding a grudge in the heart, or even directly flipping the table and getting angry on the spot, all of which are part of a workplace person's "cultivation".

In Li Ye's previous life, his aptitude for cultivation was average, but he was definitely not a rookie in the workplace. At least he knew that there was more than one pharmacy.

"Oh, what should I do? I only know that in my hometown, when registering for marriage, only the woman's age is considered, and the man doesn't really care!"

Li Ye, who had just graduated from school, acted silly and looked helpless, attracting the attention of other people in the office.

These people quietly lowered their heads when Section Chief Wu asked about Li Ye's age just now. After all, after Li Ye reported for duty yesterday, basic information about him spread like wildfire.

Tall, handsome, young, owns a house in Beijing. How could you not know his age?

So as soon as Section Chief Wu opened his mouth, everyone knew what the result would be.

And now looking at Li Ye's appearance, he was indeed easily controlled.

"Xiao Li, you can't compare your small place with the capital. Every policy of China comes from here. If we can't implement it well, then what will happen~"

Section Chief Wu talked a lot and gave Li Ye his first lesson since he joined the company. Seeing that he was spitting and getting more and more excited as he spoke, it was obvious that he also had the habit of teaching others.

But as he spoke, he felt something was wrong.

Although Li Ye sat properly on the chair, like an obedient student, his eyes were very clear, and even had an indescribable "scrutiny".

It is the way those above you look at you when you report your work to them.

Originally, Li Ye was sitting and Section Chief Wu was standing.

Isn't this more like reporting work?

"Xiao Li, I've said so much, do you understand?"

Li Ye shook his head blankly, looking well-behaved, just like a good student who said, "Teacher, I don't understand this question, can you explain it to me again?"

If you have the energy, tell me eight more times.

Section Chief Wu did not repeat it.

Over the years, Section Chief Wu has taught and trained countless newcomers, and he has mastered the art of judging right and wrong. But today, he felt strangely powerless.

All the newcomers I met before were always trembling in fear in the face of difficulties, fearing that they had no roots or foundation in the company and would leave a bad impression on leaders and colleagues at all levels, and even affect their future work.

But the Li Ye in front of him was different from all the newcomers he had met before.

He was too calm. Although he said "What can I do?", he didn't look helpless and hesitant. Instead, he seemed to be asking Section Chief Wu: "What cards do you have? Show them to me."

[This kid has some skills, so you have to be careful with your timing. ]

Section Chief Wu frowned and said thoughtfully, "Xiao Li, you want to get married, which is a major event in your life, but we have a policy now, so we can't knowingly violate it, otherwise our advanced department will be gone.

But don't worry, I'll take some time to discuss this with a few supervisors and study this matter for you as soon as possible. You can wait for the news. Of course, if you are anxious, you can go to the Family Planning Department to ask yourself."

【Want to do some research? 】

"Eh, okay."

Li Ye smiled and nodded in agreement without even saying "thank you".

It's not like he didn't understand that the capital was indeed different from other places, because the policies here were interpreted normally. If you really get down to it, advocating late marriage and late childbirth did not conflict with abiding by the legal age.

"Okay, Xiao Yue, you take Xiao Li to familiarize himself with the situation in our department first. People who graduate from Peking University will definitely be able to get familiar with the situation quickly. Try to let Xiao Li start to share the work independently within a month." When Section Chief Wu saw Li Ye "playing dumb", he turned around and gave instructions to the only girl in the office.

The Supply Department is a large department, divided into two offices. There are five people in Li Ye's office.
In addition to Section Chief Wu, who is about 40 years old, there is also an old man in his 50s and two young people, a man and a woman, in their twenties.

When Xiao Yue, a female colleague, heard Section Chief Wu's arrangement, she blinked and said awkwardly, "Section Chief Wu, I still have a lot of work to do! How can I be qualified to lead new people?
"Tsk~"

Section Chief Wu sighed and said to another male colleague, "Xiao Zheng, didn't you complain a few days ago that you couldn't handle the work and asked me to find someone to help you? It just so happens that Li Ye is a top student from Peking University. I'll help you. Are you satisfied?"

Xiao Zheng looked up at Section Chief Zheng, then lowered his head again and said sullenly, "I am not familiar with the business, so how can I be someone's apprentice? Section Chief Wu, please don't mislead others."

"Hey~, are you all still working hard? You usually complain about being tired and miserable, but now when I find you an apprentice, you complain about this and that?"

Section Chief Wu seemed to be very angry, and he laughed and scolded the two young men.

But when Li Ye saw it, he felt a conspiracy of being "isolated".

Being a graduate of Peking University is definitely a halo, but don’t dazzle others with this halo! Don’t you know that high-beam dogs are the most annoying?
At this moment, the old man who had been drinking tea steadily beside him suddenly spoke.

"How about I take Xiao Li to get familiar with the world? It just so happens that I have nothing to do recently."

"."

"Old Ding, are you willing to take on an apprentice? That would be great. There is no one more suitable than you in our department."

Section Chief Wu introduced Li Ye with a smile: "Old Ding is a veteran of our factory. He has been with us since the factory was founded in 1955. It can be said that there is nothing in the factory that he doesn't know. You are lucky to have Old Ding as your master."

Old Ding waved his hand calmly and said, "What do you mean by lucky? Chief Wu, you are just talking nonsense. This is a new society, and we value new technologies and new ideas. Xiao Li and I are also learning from each other."

"Hahahaha, Old Ding, you are still so humble. Okay, then you and Little Ding can learn from each other."

Section Chief Wu laughed it off and handed Li Ye over to Lao Ding.

Li Ye immediately stood up from his seat and bowed slightly to Lao Ding politely: "Hello, Master Ding, I will learn from you in the future. Please forgive me if there is anything inappropriate."

"No, no, just sit down! I'll find something for you to look at first."

Old Ding pressed his hand towards Li Ye, then opened his drawer and rummaged through it.

But Li Ye did not sit back. Instead, he walked to Lao Ding's desk and reached out to pick up Lao Ding's thermos.

"Master Ding, how do I get to the water room?"

"Oh, turn right after you go downstairs, walk to the end, exit the corridor, and walk forward about 70 to 80 meters. That's the place where you see coal dust all over the ground."

"Okay~"

Li Ye went out with the thermos.

The other three people behind him all looked over with frowns.

There were several thermoses in the department, but Li Ye saw clearly that Lao Ding had one alone because he was drinking tea.

Li Ye only took this handful, and there was still half a pot of water in this handful.

It is natural to fetch water for the master, but should I fetch water for you?
How big is your face?
Do you think I'm a clueless newbie who just accepts everything?

Moreover, after Li Ye walked out of the door for more than ten meters, he turned around and tiptoed back, standing at the door of the supply department and listening attentively.

As expected, Section Chief Wu had already started making phone calls.

"Hello, Director Lang? I'm Old Wu. I want to ask you something! When our factory director presided over the meeting a few days ago, didn't he say that we would strictly enforce the family planning policy? How strict is it? No, isn't there a new college student here? He wants to get married."

Li Ye smiled lightly, turned around and walked away with the thermos.

Section Chief Wu has put a stake in his own path in advance. If I had listened to what he just said and gone to ask the person himself, they would have considered Section Chief Wu's face and sent the case back for retrial, and would have brought him back with just a few words.

If this was a kid from another place who had just started working, wouldn't he despair on the spot?
When the time is right, the boss will come to the rescue and help the new recruit solve the problem. Wouldn't that let him know how powerful he is and make him follow his lead in the future?

Although the term PUA was coined decades later, similar methods have been around in the flower-growing world for thousands of years.

[Heh, he's still a deputy section chief at over 40, he really doesn't have much vision. ]
