1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 382 Job Assignment

The first snow took another hour and a half to arrive.

When people saw someone posting the list, they immediately gathered around.

Chu Xue stood still, following the usual routine, and used her spiritual power to scan the first red list. Her name was first, belonging to the Finance Department, Section 1.

She had already learned that the finance department had three sections: Section 1 was responsible for dealing with accounts receivable and payable to banks, suppliers, and customers; Section 2 was responsible for production cost accounting and preparing financial statements; and Section 3 was responsible for workers' wages and the factory's daily expense reimbursements, which was quite complicated.

Logically speaking, given Chu Xue's performance today, she would be most suitable to go to the third finance department. After all, her abacus skills are probably better than those of the older staff in the finance department. However, Li Xiaoyan, the head of the first department, is quite capable and managed to snatch Chu Xue away from the two big men, Ruan Mingquan, the head of the second department, and Xu Sihai, the head of the third department.

Chu Xue saw the result she wanted and was relieved.

Just then, the person in charge who had been holding the megaphone shouted to the crowd again: "Those on the list have been accepted by the factory. Tomorrow you will have one day to complete the onboarding procedures and transfer your grain and oil rations. You will officially start work the day after tomorrow."

Chu Xue understood. First, she went to the personnel department to get the acceptance letter, then went back to the village to get the certificate for transferring her household registration, then went to the police station to complete the household registration transfer procedures, and finally went to the factory's personnel department to complete the onboarding procedures.

Seeing that everyone was still excited, she walked quickly toward the personnel department. She had already registered when she signed up in the morning, so she could just take her household registration booklet to get the acceptance letter.

The older woman who helped Chuxue with her application was a cheerful and talkative woman: "You're in luck. The office position was a last-minute decision, and you'll be a permanent employee as soon as you join the factory. You didn't get this kind of treatment before; at the very least, you had to be a temporary worker for three months before you could become a permanent employee."

The woman at the next workstation chimed in, "Looks like we still need to study hard. We thought it was just a factory job opening, but we didn't expect there would be office positions too. It really caught us off guard. Those kids who were dragged here by their parents did a truly awful job on the exam."

"That's true. Opportunities are always for those who are prepared. Look at Sister Gu's daughter. She loves to read in her spare time. When she came to work today and heard that there were openings for office positions, she didn't even need to bring her household registration book. She just took her work ID to register. Sister Gu went down to check the results just now, and she did quite well."

After receiving the acceptance letter, Chuxue politely thanked them and left the steel rolling mill in a good mood. She ran all the way to the station, but still missed the last train.

Chu Xue was at a loss for what to do. She was thinking about whether she should walk a little further, find a secluded place, take out the bicycle that the Chen family had taken in, and ride it back.

Then a surprised male voice was heard: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"

Chu Xue turned around and saw Kong Yizhang in a police uniform: "I'm here to take care of something."

Kong Yizhang checked the time: "Are you going back?"

Chu Xue nodded, but then looked embarrassed as she realized she had missed the last bus: "Yes."

Kong Yizhang saw her expression: "Didn't catch the last train?"

Chu Xue looked embarrassed: "Yes."

Kong Yizhang suddenly realized something: "Does Yancheng know you've been to the city?"

Chu Xue shook her head: "I came here temporarily to take care of something, he doesn't know."

Kong Yizhang wanted to create an opportunity for his brother, so he deliberately said, "Sister-in-law, at this time, there's probably no other way but to take a passing bus. Why don't you call Yancheng and see if he has time to drive you?"
