Quick travel to save a miserable life

Zhu Shoushan was indeed a trustworthy person. Before lunch the next day, Lin Hui got the homestead certificate with her name on it.

She thanked Zhu Shoushan and his wife profusely, and was allowed to have lunch before returning to the city.

After returning to the family courtyard, she took a short rest and went to a nearby second-hand market to find out what she needed to sell steamed buns.

Tricycles are easier to find. There is a store in the second-hand market that specializes in selling second-hand bicycles and tricycles. They have both old and new sizes to choose from. She picked one that was [-]% to [-]% new.

Then she bought a stove, but the steamer was a little hard to find. She wanted a commercial one, with at least six layers, and there weren't many on the market.

However, the stove seller said that she could help with the search, so she left a deposit of five yuan and agreed to come back in two days. If there was any, she would pay the remaining balance. If not, she would give the money back. Return it to her.

Before riding away, she asked her boss to clean up the tricycle. The chain was re-oiled and the brake rope was tightened. Now it is very light to ride back on the road.

She rode the tricycle downstairs, cleaned the storage room downstairs a little, and then pushed the tricycle inside.

When we planned to build this family area, the factory was very profitable, so we followed the example of other large factories' family areas. We built two rows of bungalows in front of the building and behind the building, divided into rooms two or three meters wide, and each household was divided into rooms. One room is considered a storage room.

Some homes are used to park bicycles, while others are used to store sundries.

There used to be a bicycle at home, but the boss rode it away while he was working. It has been with him since then and has never been returned, so the Zhu family's storage room is empty.

However, although there was nothing inside, it was still locked. I was afraid that it would be occupied by others and put other people's things in it, which would make it unclear when the time came.

The storage room is only four or five square meters, but if you only steam buns in it, it will be enough. Lin Hui plans to pack it out and make steamed buns in the future. Steaming buns will be here, which will save you having to go upstairs and downstairs. of moving.

The first thing is to paint the walls. There are brick walls here and there. At least some cement must be put on first, and then white dust should be painted. It will look bright. The floor must also be covered with a layer of cement to avoid too much dust.

To carry out these modifications to the garage, it is inevitable to alarm the factory. Fortunately, these are also under the management of the logistics department. I have worked in the logistics department for almost twenty years and just retired. I am familiar with heads and other things. I know that this is actually It’s just a matter of a word from the leader.

At night, while it was dark, Lin Hui carried a cloth bag and went to the home of the logistics section chief Zhang in the building next door.

Section Chief Zhang is also an old man in the logistics department. After more than ten years, he was promoted last year. He is still not able to stand up to Lin Hui, an old employee, so he met Lin Hui. Very polite.

"Sister Lin, why are you here? Sit down quickly." Section Chief Zhang's family had just finished dinner and the family was watching the news broadcast on TV. When they saw Lin Hui coming, they quickly asked the children to sit aside and make room for Lin Hui.

Lin Hui knew that Section Chief Zhang was not the kind of person who was too scheming, so she spoke frankly.

"Section Chief, look at my old Zhu suddenly passing away. The family has no support, but there are still two children who are not married, but my hands are very empty. I only rely on my fifty-odd pension to support myself. It’s hard. What can I do for my children? I just thought about starting a small business, selling some steamed buns and the like. I was thinking about clearing out the storage room downstairs and putting some things in it so that it would be convenient to go back and forth from the stall. So I came here. I’m asking you for instructions.”

When Section Chief Zhang heard Lin Hui crying, he thought he was asking the factory to solve some difficulty for her, so he couldn't help but frowned. However, when he heard later, he found that it was just a small matter like cleaning up the storage room, and his brows relaxed again.

Since this storage room is allocated to each household, it is up to them how to use it. If they want to do a small business and store some things, it is not a big deal. I can think of coming over in advance to say hello and not acting without permission. It's a sign of obeying the rules, and it's a sign of respect for myself as the section chief.

So, Section Chief Zhang cleared his throat and said: "In principle, this is not allowed. Those storage rooms are only for employees and their families, and cannot be used for other purposes. However, the legal principle is nothing more than human kindness. You and Brother Zhu are both old employees of the factory. You have dedicated your whole life to the factory. Now that you encounter some difficulties, the factory will definitely help solve them. Now that you have found me, I will definitely have nothing to worry about."

Lin Hui quickly stood up and thanked her profusely, taking out the contents of the cloth bag and placing it on the coffee table.

"Thank you so much, Section Chief Zhang. You take such good care of us retired employees and think about us. You are such a good cadre. This is my heartfelt message. It has no other meaning. It is to thank you for taking care of me in the past. You But don’t refuse!”

Section Chief Zhang looked at the two blue loose-flowered cigarettes that Lin Hui took out, and his eyes suddenly lit up, but he still wanted to say a few polite words: "Oh, how embarrassing is this, those are what I should do, There’s no need to spend so much money!”

However, although he said polite words, his body did not move at all.

Lin Hui said with a smile: "Chief Zhang, you are so humble. Who in our factory doesn't know that you are dedicated to the factory and selfless? I am retired now and I am not afraid of gossip, so don't be polite. "

Section Chief Zhang smiled and rubbed his hands: "Thank you very much!"

Then, he suddenly remembered something: "Didn't you just say that you were going to paint the walls of the garage and put cement on the floor? It's not easy for you to buy the materials. We happen to have a lot of sand, cement and so on left in our factory. I'll ask Corey tomorrow My old boss will bring something and get it done for you directly. It only takes half a day, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore.”

Lin Hui naturally thanked him profusely and said a basketful of good things before leaving.

It took only two cigarettes to get the job done. In Lin Hui's opinion, it was really worth it.

Section Chief Zhang, on the other hand, felt a little embarrassed about getting two good cigarettes for nothing. It was a good deal to use the idle sand and cement in the factory to repay the favor.

Section Chief Zhang is indeed an honest man. The next morning, the logistics manager came over with a cart of sand and two bags of cement.

Before starting to work, Lin Hui gave Lao Dong two boxes of cigarettes.

It's true that people do their work according to the instructions of the leader, but we know in our hearts that this is not a public matter, so we can't accept it so peacefully and let others work in vain.

We have been working in the same factory for so many years. Who doesn’t know who is who? Maybe there will be some tinkering matters that I need to ask the old director to do when I get home. There is no need to take this opportunity to get things done. died.

The old Dong took the cigarette, and he was really smiling. He didn't mind the heat. He worked very hard. He plastered the four walls and the ground with cement in one morning and made them extremely smooth. He also said that he would wait for the walls to dry in two days before carrying some more. Come over with white ash and wash it twice with white ash water. The house will be cleaner and brighter.
