Back to the 80s Machinery Factory

Chapter 204: The Four Heavenly Kings Rob People
Afternoon Rubber Workshop Director's Office

Chen Luyang sat behind his desk, looking at the four Vajras in front of him with a headache.

Comrade Dong Mangui, the workshop's annual outstanding worker, the substitute candidate for the workshop director's meeting, and the leader of the fourth group's party group, was standing in the middle of the office, spitting and shouting arrogantly.

"Our four groups produce the most parts, and they're of the highest quality! This proves our team is the most effective. Give me 40 people, and I guarantee we'll double the efficiency of the workshop!"

Huang Pingtao, the leader of a temporary Party group, smiled calmly and said, "Xiao Dong, everyone in your workshop is a crack worker, capable of taking on a hundred enemies. I think you should just give up hiring and leave these workers to our lagging groups."

Dong Mangui said bluntly: "Old Huang, since you admit that you are no longer capable, why don't you just merge your group into our four groups? Let's improve together!"

Huang Pingtao sneered innocently: "I want to, too! But our party groups can't be merged."

Sun Jianbo, leader of the Party group of Group 10, spoke firmly: "Group is very capable and does not need to add anyone. Group has Xiang Guowu who can replace people, so there is no need to add anyone either."

"Our groups two and three are the weakest, so there are exactly 80 people to be divided into two groups, 40 people in each group."

Zhao Yuejin from Group 40 also agreed: "Yes. We need people in each of our two groups to avoid causing any trouble for the workshop."

……

Chen Luyang's head was buzzing.

When they heard that the workshop was going to recruit 80 more people, the leaders of the four party groups immediately became like weasels seeing a chicken, their eyes turning green, and they all ran to Chen Luyang's office to grab people.

He didn't even have time to say a few words.
The four team leaders who were usually harmonious started arguing over the issue of candidate selection.

Seeing that the four team leaders were becoming more and more shameless, Chen Luyang couldn't stand it anymore.

"There's no need to argue about this anymore. Each team will have 20 people: 10 skilled workers and 10 new hires. No one is too many, and no one is too few."

The four party group leaders wanted to say something, but seeing Chen Luyang's gloomy face, they fell silent.

"We're hiring this weekend. If you have any relatives or friends who want to work in the workshop, please let me know first. I'll do my best to help if I can."

Chen Luyang didn't hide anything and said it directly.

Who doesn’t have three or five relatives and friends around him?

This time when recruiting, it is inevitable that some people will secretly squeeze people into the workshop.

Instead of keeping yourself in the dark, it is better to go along with it and do a favor.

However, Chen Luyang did not wait for the four people to "take the back door", but was the first to receive Yang Xiangyang's request.

"You want to send Kang Qingqing to me? No way."

Chen Luyang refused without even thinking.

If he were a woman, there would be nothing wrong with him accepting Kang Qingqing into the workshop to work and keeping her under his watch.

The key point is that he is a man, this is not appropriate!

It’s hard to grasp the scale of saying more or less in retrospect.

What if there is some misunderstanding? Will he and Yang Xiangyang still get along?

Yang Xiangyang was depressed: "Isn't there anything I can do?"

Last time Chen Luyang gave him movie tickets, Yang Xiangyang finally coaxed Kang Qingqing.

But he was also cautious, knowing that if they continued to work in the same workshop, their relationship would eventually fade away.

Yang Xiangyang simply decided to go all out.

When he heard that Chen Luyang was recruiting, he immediately sent Kang Qingqing over.

But who knew that Chen Luyang would refuse without even thinking about it.

"How about you transfer her to the general department?" Chen Luyang suggested.

"The general department in the factory is relatively relaxed, and clerical work is more suitable for female comrades."

Yang Xiangyang pondered: "That's an idea."

Although he works in the workshop, he also has a few friends in the general department with whom he can have a say.

It’s not impossible to look back and find a way.

Seeing Yang Xiangyang's expression change from gloomy to bright, Chen Luyang also talked about business.

"Isn't this the car toy my master made for Junjun?"

Yang Xiangyang picked up the wire car suspiciously: "Why are you showing this to me?"

Chen Luyang said, "Brother Yang, I want to put a car shell on it and make it into a toy that looks exactly like the Tyrant Car. Can you help me think of a way?"

"Car shell? That means making a mold for the covering parts?" Yang Xiangyang looked around at the wire car.

"The workshop already has a mold for the panels. We can shrink it down to size. We can use scrap steel for the chassis, and we can use leftover tires..."

Yang Xiangyang probably weighed it in his mind and agreed, "It's possible."

Chen Luyang said, "Brother Yang, can you help me make a small car toy in the next two days? I need it."

"Okay!" Yang Xiangyang agreed immediately.

Big cars have already been built, so making such a small thing is just a matter of effort.

……

late

Niu Jiangang rode a bicycle and carried his schoolbag home from the provincial university.

It’s been a bit cold in the dormitory at night recently, and the school is not far from home, so he simply rode his bike home to sleep in the warmth.

Wait until the next morning, then get up and go back to school.

The dim street light shone on the display board, clearly illuminating the contents inside.

"Recruitment notice? The factory is hiring again?"

Niu Jiangang braked curiously, put one foot on the ground, and leaned closer to read the notice board.

"Didn't they just hire a group of workers a few days ago? Why are they hiring again at the end of the year?"

Niu Jiangang was suspicious.

But now he is in college, and the factory's recruitment has little to do with him.

After glancing at the notice a few times, Niu Jiangang pedaled his bike with his right foot and rode home leisurely.

"Mom, I'm home!"

"Have the college students returned home?"

When he opened the door, Niu Jiangang saw a young man sitting in the house, who seemed to be waiting for him.

"Brother, why are you here?"

When Niu Jiangang saw the person coming, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

The man's name is Liu Zheng, and he is his aunt's brother.

Liu Zheng said embarrassedly: "Gangzi, I came to ask you for help today."

"I want to try out for a job at the factory, but I'm afraid I won't be selected. I'd like to ask you for help."

Niu Jiangang was stunned: "The factory is hiring, and I have no say!"

Liu Zheng said, "I found out that the workshop director who is recruiting workers this time is your classmate."

Niu Jiangang was puzzled: "My classmate? You must have remembered it wrongly. How could I have a classmate who is a workshop director!..."

Before I finished speaking,

Niu Jiangang suddenly remembered something, and then an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"You're not talking about Chen Luyang, are you?"

Liu Zheng nodded: "Yes, yes, it's Chen Luyang!"

Niu Jiangang's mouth slowly opened wide. "How did he become the workshop director? ... No, how could he become the workshop director?"

Before last weekend, the school's bulletin board described Chen Luyang as a senior technician.

He suddenly became the workshop director?
Seeing that Niu Jiangang's mental state was not right, Niu's mother quickly came out to interrupt:

"Eat first! We'll talk after we finish eating."

Niu Jiangang ate this meal in a daze.

Mother Niu patiently advised, "Gangzi, your brother is really hard-working transporting goods at the supply and marketing cooperative. Now that there is an opportunity at the factory, if you can help him out, just give him a call." Liu Zheng was embarrassed and said, "Yes, brother, if you can get in touch with Chen Luyang, please help me."

He has already found out everything.

The rubber workshop has only been developed within this month.

However, Chen Luyang is a favorite among the factory leaders and is highly respected.

If I could enter the rubber workshop and work with Chen Luyang, my future development would definitely be good.

But looking at Niu Jiangang's reaction, it seems that he doesn't have a very good relationship with Chen Luyang!

After hesitating for a while, Liu Zheng tentatively said, "Brother, how about you tell me what Chen Luyang likes? I'll go to his house to visit him."

He works in a supply and marketing cooperative, so it is convenient for him to buy anything he wants.

It's also easy to go back and pick up some things and give gifts through the back door.

Niu Jiangang gave Liu Zheng a complicated look.

Everyone in the Machinery Factory No. 1 Middle School knows that Chen Luyang likes Bai Xiaofan, but you have to figure it out!
"Brother, I'll go and talk to you." Niu Jiangang said with great loyalty.

No matter what, it's our own family's business.

I have to give it a try anyway!
After finishing his meal, Niu Jiangang, with great psychological pressure, ran to Chen Luyang's house carrying a bag of eggs.

As a result, before she even reached the door, she saw several people standing outside carrying things.

There was even one who was his classmate Lao Fang!

Seeing their classmates, the two of them felt awkward for a moment, knowing each other.

At this time in the Chen family courtyard,

Chen Luyang also stood in the main room awkwardly, not knowing whether to take the things on the table or not.

"Aunt Wang, it's not that I don't agree to let Brother Feng come to work in the workshop."

"The key is that our workshop is engaged in rubber processing, and the workshop is filled with the smell of rubber, sulfur and vulcanizing agents."

"Brother Feng already has rhinitis. You let him come to our workshop. Isn't this going to make him suffer?"

In the main room, Mrs. Xiao Wang, Chen's mother's favorite neighbor, sat on a stool like a weight, looking as if she would not give up until she achieved her goal.

"What's the big deal? When winter comes, who among us doesn't sneeze and have a runny nose?! We can get through this!"

Chen Luyang patiently advised, "Auntie, you said it too. When winter comes, we all sneeze and have runny noses. In the spring, summer, and autumn, we can open the doors and windows to ventilate the workshop."

"But in the winter, the windows are only open for a short time, and the workshop is filled with pungent odors. Even stuffing a handkerchief into Brother Feng's nose won't stop the runny nose."

Aunt Wang was also a little shaken.

You should take care of your own son.

She would be reluctant to let her son work in such an environment.

But if you can get into the factory, you may have the opportunity to change workshops in the future.

How could Chen Luyang not see Aunt Wang's thoughts? He said in a good-tempered manner:
"Well, take your things back first."

"When we start recruiting, let me, Brother Feng, try out in other workshops first."

"If you can recruit him, that would be great. If there's no news, please come back to me and I'll help you think of a solution."

Chen Luyang had already said this much, and Aunt Wang felt embarrassed to persuade him any further.

But since the things have been delivered, they will not be taken away no matter what.

She glanced around the main room and asked curiously, "Xiao Chen, are you alone at home tonight? Your mother isn't home?"

Chen Luyang glanced vaguely at the big house with the closed door.

"My parents are visiting tonight and are not at home."

Inside the room, Chen's mother glared at Chen's father fiercely, and pinched his waist hard in anger.

Father Chen didn't dare to say a word, his face and neck were red with pain.

Ever since Chen Dazhi became the workshop director, there has been a constant stream of people coming to his house to try to recruit workers through backdoor channels.

In the past, these matters were handled by Chen Dazhi and Sun Zhigang, and Chen's mother never cared.

But now it was her son's turn to play, and she was extremely worried.

She told Chen's father early in the morning and asked him to help block it.

But this damn old man is just like that old pig kidney, he has very righteous ideas!

He insisted that this was Chen Luyang's workshop's business, not his workshop's business.

Not only did he let his son handle it alone, but after dinner he dragged Chen's mother into the house and closed the door.

The home court was completely handed over to Director Chen.

Mother Chen was getting angry in the house.

I was afraid that my son would say something wrong and offend others; I was also afraid that my son would encounter someone who was unreasonable and end up suffering.

I couldn't sit still or stand still all night, so I just lay down and listened through the crack of the door.

Father Chen didn't know how many times he had been glared at and pinched.

Fortunately, his son was quite talkative and handled the situation well throughout the night, without making Mr. and Mrs. Chen too angry.

Aunt Wang beside her saw that they had finished talking and was about to get up and say goodbye when she heard another knock on the door.

"Director Chen, please go ahead and do your work. I'll go home first."

Aunt Wang stood up and gave another worried reminder: "You must remember what happened to our Xiao Feng! Our Xiao Feng still takes out the English book you wrote and reads it from time to time!"

Chen Luyang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Wang, I'll find a way."

After finally sending Aunt Wang out, the smile on Chen Luyang's face almost froze.

Ever since the factory posted a recruitment notice that the rubber workshop was looking to recruit 40 workers, there has been constant calls from people at home.

He was busy entertaining guests all night and his cheeks were numb from smiling.

Seeing that there was another person in the queue entering the room, Niu Jiangang and Lao Fang silently hid back again, looking embarrassed.

After all, he is a young man who has just graduated. It is his first time to participate in a backdoor project under his real name. It is really difficult to get over this hurdle in his heart.

After waiting for a long time, the people in front came out.
The two men knew they could no longer hide, so they looked at each other and knocked on the door as if they were going to die.

"Jiangang, Lao Niu?"

When Chen Luyang saw two familiar faces, he was distracted and couldn't figure out what these two people were doing.

"Brother Chen, an old classmate is here to ask you for help today!"

Niu Jiangang couldn't open his mouth, but Lao Fang spoke warmly and said what he wanted to say directly.

"Oh my! Oh my, you two are still messing with me! Hurry up and get inside!"

When Chen Luyang heard that the other party was also coming in through the back door, he immediately led the two people in with a helpless smile.

Lao Fang was admitted to a technical school this year and has a good relationship with Chen Luyang.

Like Niu Jiangang, this time he also came to find a job for his relative.

Young people don't understand why they speak in roundabout ways.

After entering the house, Lao Fang first told Chen Luyang about the situation of his relatives, then put the canned food he was carrying on the table, and then he said nothing more.

From the time I walked in to the time I delivered the items, it took less than 6 minutes.

Chen Luyang was so moved that she almost cried.

He had been talking all night long and his lips were almost worn out, but he finally met someone he was happy with.

After agreeing to Lao Fang, Chen Luyang turned his attention to Niu Jiangang.

Compared with Lao Fang, Niu Jiangang obviously has a lot more difficulty speaking.

I really can't open my mouth!

He was a college student, yet he actually gave gifts to his classmates who failed the exam to get a backdoor...

How can you open your mouth like this?
