The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 376 I’ve lived a fulfilling life!!

Yu Li looked at Zhang Shenfei with a sincere expression: "Director Zhang, how much do you think it will cost to arrange a job for my sister? Please give me a rough number so that I can give my parents a reply and ask them to find a solution...

Before I came here, my father-in-law specifically told me that it was not easy to arrange a job in a large state-owned enterprise. If ordinary people came to you for help, you would definitely not even respond.

In other words, our two families have a good relationship and are real neighbors.

"We were able to be liberated thanks to you... He said that you were helping me because we have been neighbors for decades. He asked us to give him the money and not to make it difficult for you."

That's right, Zhang Shenfei nodded with satisfaction.

He said that Yan Bugui was a shrewd man, and Yu Li actually came to see him, it must be Yan Bugui who was behind it.

Otherwise, even if Yu Li knew that he was the deputy director of the steel rolling mill, she would not dare to ask for help from a neighbor whom she was not familiar with and only greeted when they met, right? ? ?

Now that the path has been pointed out, that guy will definitely give various instructions and explanations.

It was the Yu family who spent money to find a job for Yu Haitang. Yan Bugui just spoke and pointed the way, but he was able to gain a good reputation with the Yu family and maybe even get some benefits from it.

Letting Yu Li say this and leaving a good impression on me is like getting the best of both worlds without spending a penny. An old fox is an old fox after all, and it is not for nothing that she is good at calculating!!

But then again, although Yan Bugui is stingy and calculating, he is not a complete idiot and he understands the general situation of arranging jobs.

Zhang Shenfei thought that Yan Bugui had already informed the Yu family and had a rough idea of ​​how much this job would cost.

Hearing Yu Li say this, he gave a middle price based on the current market conditions. Yu Li was not surprised at all, and nodded quickly, saying that she would ask her parents to collect the money and send it over in the next few days.

This also confirmed Zhang Shenfei's guess that the old Yu family had indeed had a bottom line in their hearts.

"Director Zhang, whether my sister can get a job as a broadcaster in the steel rolling mill depends on you. When my sister enters the factory, you should criticize her and educate her. The little girl knows nothing, and she will treat you as her real brother once she enters the factory." Yu Li spoke very nicely.

"Well, we're all neighbors. Leave it to me." Zhang Shenfei said with a smile, then waved his hand and said goodbye to Yu Li.

The two compartments are separated.

After Zhang Shenfei watched Yu Li's back enter the Yan family's gate and disappear, he turned his head to look at the moon gate leading to the middle courtyard from the front yard.

"Silly Zhu, when did you develop the habit of eavesdropping on people?" Zhang Shenfei took out a cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

With a sound of striking the ground, the match was lit.

A blue flame flickered in the darkness, and was brought to the cigarette to his lips.

Huh, Zhang Shenfei exhaled a puff of smoke, and at this time Sha Zhu had already walked to his side, scratched the hair on the back of his head, and smiled innocently:
"Brother Dafei, how did you know I was hiding there? I really didn't mean to eavesdrop. I wanted to look for you, but I saw you and Yu Li talking here. I couldn't show up, so I hid first."

Zhang Shenfei looked him up and down with a cigarette between his fingers and asked, "Why, you have something to ask me like Yu Li? Is it because you don't have enough money for the wedding, do you want to borrow money or something else???"

Sha Zhu raised one eyebrow high, very surprised: "It's amazing, it's really amazing. Brother Da Fei, how do you know that I came to you today to ask for something?"

He and Zhang Shenfei were childhood friends. They didn't usually talk about being in the same boat, but they always drank and chatted together.

She is not like Yu Li, and has nothing to do with Zhang Shenfei.

That's why he couldn't understand how Zhang Shenfei knew after just a few glances at him that he came to him today not to chat and drink, but to ask for a favor.

Hearing Sha Zhu's doubts, Zhang Shenfei immediately grinned and said, "Sha Zhu, do you know how I could tell at a glance that you had something to ask for?

It's very simple. Although your nickname is Shazhu, you are a guy who knows how to cook dumplings in a teapot. You look stupid, but you are not stupid at all.

Tell me, among the people in our courtyard, including the first and second uncles, if we fight one-on-one, none of them can be your opponent.

Just look at your eyes. Any time you turn them, you are suggesting something bad. Normally, your eyes are always rolling around. Otherwise, how could Xu Damao always lose when fighting you? ? ?
You are a dog, you can turn hostile at any time. Many people cannot see through you, and do not know when you are joking and when you are serious. But I can see through you at a glance.

Because when you feel guilty or need something from him, he will always act like a simple and honest person.

You said you have so many tricks up your sleeve, and you can't pretend to be honest, and you look like a weird person, but I can see your thoughts at a glance???"

"Amazing, really amazing." Sha Zhu couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Brother Dafei, you are the most amazing among the five gentlemen in our courtyard!!! Just based on your meticulous observation, you are much better than me and Xu Damao. Tell me, you are handsome, tall, married to a beautiful wife, have a good job, and went to college, how come you are so outstanding???"

Are you still trying to curry favor with me? ? ! ! Zhang Shenfei was so jealous that he kicked her in the ass.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I don't have time to talk to you about this nonsense in the middle of the night." It's not that he can't stand people flattering him.

It's really that Shazhu's flattery was not very high-end, which made people feel uncomfortable and a little chilly.

After being kicked by Zhang Shenfei, Sha Zhu finally calmed down: "It's nothing, isn't it just my sister Yu Shui? The little girl graduated from high school this year and didn't get into college.

Now the street has arranged two jobs for me, one is to work in a textile factory, and the other is to work as a salesperson in a department store. I just want to ask you, Brother Dafei, what do you think is the best thing for Yushui to do???"

“Also, I heard that Yu Li’s sister Yu Haitang signed up to be our factory’s broadcaster and did not obey the street’s arrangement.

Our Yu Shui and Yu Haitang are classmates. Brother Da Fei, tell me, should Yu Shui obey the street's arrangement or not? ? "

He Yuzhu has been worried about He Yushui's work recently.

His father He Daqing followed the White Widow to Baocheng in 1951. At that time, He Yushui was still a little girl and liar with a runny nose who wet the bed every day.

It can be said that over the past decade, it was He Yuzhu who acted as both a father, a mother, and a brother to the other person, raising him up.

You have to know that he was only sixteen years old in 1951, and the bitterness he had experienced in the past ten years was not something he could tell outsiders.

Now that He Yushui has graduated from high school and has grown up, it is time for him to start working.

In Sha Zhu's mind, as long as he arranges his sister's job, he can break away from the position of his parents and return to the simple identity of a brother.

Therefore, finding a suitable job for my sister became the top priority.

He was a rough guy who didn't even finish junior high school, so he couldn't give his sister much advice, so he set his sights on Zhang Shenfei.

After he finished speaking, afraid that Zhang Shenfei would not take it seriously, he said seriously: "Brother Dafei, the relationship between our two families is not the same as that between you and the old Yan family. You must take the matter of Yu Shui seriously and deal with it as a big deal!!!"

Don't think he doesn't know that Yu Shui from their family and Zhang Shunsui from the old Zhang family have been in love for a long time. Then Yu Shui is half of the old Zhang family!!! Zhang Shenfei, as the second uncle, can't just ignore it.

Sha Zhu was touched that he was a good brother. Zhang Shenfei looked at him with a cigarette in his mouth, "Boy, I thought you only had someone else in your heart and had already forgotten Yu Shui.

Okay, he still thinks about his sister's future after graduation, so he is not completely hopeless."

He had heard from the second oldest son in the family that ever since Jia Dongxu's death, Sha Zhu had been giving a lot of support to Qin Huairu, but had paid little attention to his younger sister He Yushui.

It is said that He Yushui often did not have enough to eat at school, and his studies were also affected.

Of course, the second son in their family also gave a lot of subsidies to the other party.

Zhang Shenfei didn't say anything about this. After all, when you are in a relationship, it is natural to spend some money on a girl.

Sha Zhu knew exactly how he had treated his sister and Qin Huairu in the past few years. When he heard Zhang Shenfei's words, his old face suddenly turned red and he didn't know how to respond.

Fortunately, Zhang Shenfei did not mean to criticize him, he just said it casually.

Seeing that Sha Zhu couldn't respond, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "I can't answer you now. Let me talk to Yu Shui and Shun Sui tomorrow. After comprehensive consideration, we can talk about Yu Shui's future destination."

Textile factories and department stores are not good places to go.

Thirty years later, when the wave of layoffs came, these two places were the first to be hit. At that time, Yu Shui was only in his forties, with elderly parents and young children to take care of. If this girl didn't marry Shun Sui, what happened to her would have nothing to do with the Zhang family.

But if she married Zhang Shunsui, he, as her uncle, would have to help with the planning.

Zhang Shenfei was thinking about taking advantage of the weekend tomorrow to ask Zhang Shunsui and He Yushui about their future plans. If the two children really wanted to get something out of it, he would arrange a better place for He Yushui.

As for where Zhang Shunsui will go, there is no need to worry. The guy is now in an electrical technical secondary school and will enter the power system after graduation. That's a sure thing.

After hearing Zhang Shenfei's words, Sha Zhu rolled his eyes a few times. After understanding the other party's meaning, he immediately smiled, nodded and left.

How could she not know about her own sister? ??? ??? The girl has been bewitched by Zhang Shunsui and is determined to marry him.

As long as Zhang Shunsui expresses again during the conversation tomorrow that he will marry no one but He Yushui, then Yushui’s job will definitely be secure!!!

Well, I have to go home quickly and let Yu Shui find Zhang Shunsui and give that kid some sweet treats so that he can say a few good words about him in front of his second uncle tomorrow.

I received two calls from people asking me to arrange work for me in one night. I was pretty tired.

Zhang Shenfei threw away the cigarette butt, rubbed his sore nose, and waited until the smell of smoke had dissipated before returning home.

Nowadays, there is no such thing as children being unable to breathe secondhand smoke. It is common to see people smoking in places where children are present.

But everyone feels sorry for their own child.

Since giving birth to Zhang Weiguo, Zhang Shenfei has been very careful and never smokes in front of his child.

I also told their old lady that when she wanted to smoke, she should go to the deaf old lady's room in the backyard, and not in her own home.

The deaf old lady is old and has lived her life to its fullest. It doesn't matter whether she smokes second-hand smoke or not.

After returning home, he washed Tian Xiaozao's feet as usual, and wiped Zhang Weiguo's face, feet and hands with a small towel dipped in warm water. Only then did Zhang Shenfei get on the kang.

Seeing that the little guy was already asleep, Zhang Shenfei turned off the lights and hugged Tian Xiaozao in his arms.

Although Tian Xiaozao is in confinement, but isn't there an old saying? If there are no conditions, create them and go.

If I don't have that, I still have that! ! ! ! I paid for my wife, so I can't let her go to waste...

A night of silence,
At noon the next day, Zhang Shenfei hosted a banquet at Fengze Garden for his elder brother and sister-in-law, Zhang Shunsui and He Yushui.

He Yushui and Zhang Shunsui had not arrived yet, but their family of three arrived first and were drinking tea and chatting.

Zhang Shenfei roughly recounted what happened when Sha Zhu came to see him yesterday.

Tang Danniu smacked her lips and said, "Da Fei, do you mean that the department store and the textile factory are not good? But aren't these two the most popular units right now? "

A salesperson in a department store is one of the eight major employees. He or she usually works in a building, protected from wind and rain. The working environment is very good.

You can also buy items outside the plan that do not require tickets, and because of this, you are surrounded and fawned upon by neighbors and relatives, which makes you feel justified and respectable.

According to Tang Danniu, there is no better job in the world.

How come the second brother said that he didn't want He Yushui to go to work? ? ?
Although Zhang Shenliang on the side didn't say anything, he looked at his brother curiously. It was obvious that he had the same doubts as Tang Danniu.

Zhang Shenfei took a sip of tea, put down the cup and told them: "Now everyone thinks that the job of a salesperson in a department store is good, that's because we are now practicing a planned economy.

But brother and sister-in-law, think about it, what was the original intention of our country to implement a planned economy? ? ? "

What was the original intention? Tang Danniu and Zhang Shenliang looked at each other. Tang Danniu shook her head. How could she know?

Zhang Shenliang thought about it and said, "It's because we don't have enough supplies and can't supply them at full capacity, so we need a plan."

Zhang Shenfei nodded: "That's right. After liberation, our country had a lot of work to do and needed to develop industry. We were lacking in many aspects.

In order to make every effort to develop, we have to tighten our belts and save money.

The planned economy can indeed use the least resources to deal with people's livelihood, and the saved resources are used for industrial construction. Brother, you work in a steel mill, and you know the development of the industry in recent years without me telling you.

The country is still developing and the momentum is very good.

When industry develops to a certain level, various materials are no longer scarce.

By then, it will be a buyer's market like before. Ordinary people will have money in their pockets to buy things without tickets and can buy wherever they want.

The job of a salesperson will no longer be a stable job, but just an ordinary job that cannot be more ordinary. You even need to smile every day and stand for a whole day... Is this kind of job still attractive? ? "
