Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Upon hearing that the vehicle belonged to the factory and was for Xiaoshan to purchase, many people put away their ulterior motives.

Xiao Shan knew exactly what kind of people lived in the courtyard.

If this bicycle were his own, people in the neighborhood would be lining up to borrow it until next month.

Many people in the intermediate court came out after hearing the commotion in the front yard.

Xiao Shan was surrounded as soon as he arrived at the Intermediate People's Court.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xiao Shan and asked, "Xiao Shan, why did you agree to be seconded to work as a purchasing agent? There are better prospects for workers. How much does a purchasing agent earn?"

Jia Zhangshi stared at the bicycle, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

But he muttered under his breath, "It's not mine, why show it off?"

"Uncle, we're all contributing to the country, there's no distinction between high and low positions!" Xiao Shan looked at Yi Zhonghai with a serious face and said, "As a junior, I have to say a few words to you. You're a hedonist, only thinking about doing high-paying, promising jobs. Low-paying jobs also need to be done!"

"We need to have a spirit of dedication, instead of everything being about future prospects or money!"

Upon hearing Xiao Shan's words, Yi Zhonghai's face instantly darkened.

Seeing everyone staring at him, Yi Zhonghai gave an awkward smile: "Um, Xiaoshan, I have something to do at home, I'll head back first!"

Watching Yi Zhonghai return to his room in a disheveled state, Xiao Shan turned to look at Jia Zhangshi.

Before Xiao Shan could speak, Jia Zhangshi quickly forced an awkward smile: "Xiao Shan, this bicycle is really nice! I have something to do at home, so I'll be going now."

She didn't want to be bullied by Xiao Shan; didn't she see how dark Yi Zhonghai's face turned when he was bullied?

If he were alone with Xiao Shan, Yi Zhonghai would definitely resort to violence.

Everyone else went home one after another, but He Yuzhu stayed home to take care of the children and didn't come out at all.

Xiao Shan went home and carried his bicycle inside.

Just as he sat down to rest, Liu Guangtian came in.

After entering the house, Liu Guangtian greeted Xiao Shan and then walked around the bicycle.

He would gently touch her every now and then, like he was touching his wife.

Liu Guangtian looked at Xiao Shan with envy and said, "Xiao Shan, your temporary assignment is really good. The steel mill even provided you with a bicycle! If I had a bicycle, I would polish it until it shines every day."

After looking at bicycles for a long time, Liu Guangtian reluctantly went back.

After Liu Guangtian left, Xiao Shan chatted with the other people for a few minutes before sitting down on the kang (a heated brick bed) to cultivate.

The next day, Xiao Shan heated up the lotus leaf pancakes he had brought back and ate them for breakfast.

He then took two burlap sacks and rode his bicycle out of the yard.

Bicycles are faster than walking, and we arrived outside the city in no time.

Riding slowly along the country road, Xiao Shan looked at the surrounding scenery while paying close attention to whether there were any footprints on the ground.

After riding for more than half an hour, we arrived at a rather desolate place in Xiaoshan.

After parking his bicycle, Xiao Shan carefully observed his surroundings.

Xiaoshan was lucky today, encountering two rabbits and three pheasants right here.

This is equivalent to a five-day quota for wild game in Xiaoshan.

With Xiao Shan's current strength, now that he has discovered these rabbits and pheasants, they naturally can't escape.

After putting the rabbits and pheasants into sacks, Xiaoshan's hunting trip for the day was considered over.

He found a flat spot on the ground, laid another burlap sack on it, and sat on top of the sack to begin his cultivation.

It wasn't until lunchtime that Xiao Shan opened his eyes and asked Ying Zheng to send him a royal meal via a red envelope in the chat group.

Ying Zheng readily agreed to such a request.

Anyway, for this kind of thing, you can just ask the imperial chefs in the palace to do it.

We don't lack these ingredients ourselves.

After finishing the imperial meal, Xiao Shan took his prey, got on his bicycle, and began his return journey.

On the way back, Xiao Shan encountered a group of wild ducks by the river and also collected a few wild duck eggs.

Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Shan pushed his bicycle into the yard.

It was much quieter this time than when I came back last night.

The men in the courtyard haven't finished get off work yet, and the women are all staying inside!

In the dead of winter, nobody wants to freeze outside.

Upon entering the courtyard, an older woman was helping a deaf elderly woman out of her house.

Xiao Shan greeted her with a smile: "A middle-aged woman, helping an old lady take a stroll!"

The deaf old lady chuckled and said, "Oh, it's Xiaoshan. Your aunt made lunch, but I didn't ask her to deliver it to me. I went to her house for lunch and came out for a stroll. The sun is quite warm."

"When you get old, if you don't get some exercise, your legs will become weak!"

Hearing the deaf old lady's words, Xiao Shan smiled and said, "Grandma, I just picked up a few wild duck eggs when I went shopping outside the city. Here, have two for you. I'll have an older woman cook them for you to help you recover."

After saying that, Xiao Shan took out two duck eggs from his pocket and handed them over.

An older woman looked at the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady didn't stand on ceremony: "Take it, it's a token of Xiaoshan's appreciation."

The woman then happily accepted the wild duck eggs.

After saying goodbye to the two, Xiao Shan pushed his bicycle back to the backyard.

After watching Xiao Shan leave, the older woman said helplessly, "Xiao Shan is a good kid! Old Yi just can't stand him, and the two of them have had several arguments."

"Xiao Yi's tricks might fool the others in the courtyard, but Xiao Shan saw right through them," the deaf old lady said slowly. "Xiao Yi doesn't know how to restrain himself, repeatedly asking for trouble and always ending up in an awkward situation!" "Some things, you just have to exchange sincerity for sincerity!"

After a slight pause, the deaf old lady looked at the middle-aged woman and said, "You should try to persuade Xiao Yi more often. Dongxu is a good man, but he has a heavy family burden! He has to support you all and his mother on his own. He has two children now, and who knows how many more he will have in the future! No matter how capable he is, he will gradually become overwhelmed."

Hearing the deaf old lady's words, the middle-aged woman felt a little uncomfortable.

Was it that she didn't try to persuade Yi Zhonghai?

She's tried to persuade him countless times, but Yi Zhonghai just won't listen!

Despite feeling uneasy, the older woman nodded and said, "Okay, ma'am, I'll talk to him about it when I have time, and ask him to pay more attention."

He Yuzhu was a good person, but then he got married and now has a child.

Li Caijuan is a woman with her own ideas.

The older woman recalled how Xiaoshan had asked Director Wang to introduce a potential partner to He Yuzhu, and some new thoughts began to form in her mind.

If Xiaoshan really thinks that far ahead, then that's a bit scary!

The next day, Xiaoshan also rode a bicycle out of the city.

He simply found a secluded spot and sat down to cultivate.

I didn't go back until the afternoon.

On the third day, Xiao Shan brought two rabbits and a pheasant to the steel mill and handed them over to Xiong Dingxi.

Looking at the wild game that Xiao Shan had given him, Xiong Dingxi was overjoyed: "Xiao Shan, you really have some skills! We can't even buy this kind of wild game in the countryside."

At the same time, Xiong Dingxi also admired Li Huaide in his heart, thinking that Director Li was really good at judging people!

Of course, although this wild game is a quota for Xiaoshan, the External Liaison Department still has to pay for it.

After all, Xiaoshan's job in the External Relations Department is procurement, and procurement definitely requires a budget!

The only difference is that the money the External Liaison Department received for purchasing wild game wasn't as much as what they sold at the pigeon market!

“Xiao Shan, I can offer six yuan for these two rabbits and two yuan for the pheasant! After all, there is a food shortage now, and we are collecting wild game from the countryside. Farmers have it tough, they don’t have enough to eat or wear, so we can’t take advantage of them,” Xiong Dingxi said to Xiao Shan.

Although Xiong Dingxi knew that Xiao Shan had made the fight himself, he wouldn't mention it, only saying that Xiao Shan had purchased it.

Xiao Shan naturally had no objection: "Brother Xiong is right!"

"Xiaoshan, don't worry, your brother will definitely not let you suffer a loss. After all, this wild game would definitely not fetch this price in Pigeon Market! I'll get you two packs of good cigarettes and two bottles of good wine as compensation later," Xiong Dingxi said to Xiaoshan with a smile.

Xiao Shan nodded: "Thank you, Brother Xiong!"

After settling the accounts, Xiao Shan didn't go to the External Liaison Department, but instead went to the welding workshop.

First of all, Xiao Shan knew he would have to go back to the workshop sooner or later.

As the food crisis continues, the country's top leaders will tighten their belts and reduce food rations, and the leaders of the steel mills will naturally stop preparing special meals and eating wild game.

Secondly, his mentor also told him to go back to the workshop when he had time, so he should try to be more obedient.

In the end, he did this by staying true to his original aspiration, and even his superiors would praise him for it.

Although he was seconded to the logistics department to work in procurement, he still often comes to the welding workshop to help out. He is a role model for the children of our workers!

In the welding workshop, Mao Dexing was looking at blueprints when he saw Xiao Shan, which surprised him.

He had told Xiao Shan to come back to the workshop more often when he had time, but he didn't expect Xiao Shan to come back so soon.

Mao Dexing asked with some concern, "What brings you here, kid? Did something go wrong with your purchase?"

"Master, don't worry! I just finished purchasing and came to the workshop to practice my welding skills!" Xiao Shan said to Mao Dexing with a smile.

Hearing Xiao Shan say that, Mao Dexing finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good!"

"Come on, you help me out, let's weld together according to this blueprint!"

Xiao Shan nodded: "Okay, Master!"

Soon, Xiao Shan's colleagues in the workshop also spotted him.

Old Sun, a fourth-level welder, looked at Xiao Shan and asked, "Xiao Shan, weren't you seconded to the procurement department?"

"Uncle Sun, the welding workshop will always be my home. I've finished my purchasing work, so I'm coming over to help out," Xiao Shan said with a smile, holding a welding torch.

Old Sun gave Xiao Shan a thumbs up: "Xiao Shan, your awareness is much higher than most people's! You take one salary and do two jobs."

Xiao Shan waved his hand and said, "Uncle Sun, you're not right! When I came to work in the workshop, I even learned some skills from my master! A level six welder personally instructs me; no amount of money can buy that kind of treatment."

People like Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiecheng, who do odd jobs, desperately want a skilled worker to guide them.

Even if it costs money!

With the skills, you can get into a factory even without spending money.

If you can't get into a big company, can't you get into a small company?

China is currently in dire need of skilled technical personnel!

"That's true." Old Sun nodded.

Soon, Luo Zhengqiu also learned about Xiao Shan's help in the workshop: "You lad, I really didn't misjudge you! Work hard and try to pass the Level 4 assessment as soon as possible!"

"Don't worry, Director, I'll pass the Level 4 assessment in two months at most!" Xiao Shan said confidently.

After finishing the welding with Mao Dexing, Mao Dexing said to Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, go to the forging workshop for me and tell the forging master to add more when forging the parts so that it will be easier to weld them."

"I'll go right away, Master."

After putting down the welding torch, Xiao Shan went directly to the forging workshop.

Upon entering the forging workshop, Xiao Shan saw Liu Haizhong directing four or five people to work like a leader.

If you don't do a good job, you get a good scolding, and after the scolding, you get a couple of pointers.

The person who was scolded was not angry at all, but instead looked at Liu Haizhong with gratitude.

Xiao Shan's lips curled up slightly; it seemed that taking on more apprentices was indeed a good idea for Liu Haizhong.

He not only got to enjoy being a leader, but also taught them the skills, killing two birds with one stone.

The workshop director of the forging workshop was clearly pleased to see this.

The addition of a few more skilled workers to the workshop also counts as part of his performance.

This is a win-win situation!
