Chapter 38 Being a Team Leader

"It's Xiao Xu, let me see what's going on. Why do I ask you to come here in person to send off a new person?"

When Hu Jianye saw Sister Xu, he quickly opened the door to greet her.

It seems that Sister Xu must have some connections, otherwise, why would the propaganda chief be so welcoming?

"Look at what you said, Section Chief Hu. Isn't this my job? Let me introduce you to this newcomer in your department, a clerk from the Street Office. My brother, Section Chief Hu, please take good care of him in the future."

After hearing this, Hu Jianye's face became serious and he began to take Wang Gensheng seriously. He nodded and agreed.

"Hello, Chief Hu. I will be working under you from now on. Please take care of me." Wang Gensheng bowed and greeted him in a proper manner.

Section Chief Hu also replied with a smile: "You're welcome. We are all doing our job, so there's no need to ask for your care."

"Okay then, I've brought the people here. Gensheng, you must also work hard and listen to Chief Hu. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me!"

"Okay, take care, Sister Xu." This time, Wang Gensheng's tone was very enthusiastic and his gratitude was sincere.

Sister Xu also felt Wang Gensheng's enthusiasm and the change in his tone of voice. A smile appeared on her face again and she nodded with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

After waving to Hu Jianye, he turned and left.

Hu Jianye turned his head again, looked Wang Gensheng up and down and asked, "Wang Gensheng, are you on good terms with Section Chief Xu? She personally sent you here on your first day at work; this is a treatment only cadres get when they take office."

"Chief Xu? I'm okay. Sister Xu cares about me a lot." This was what Chief Hu said to test Wang Gensheng, trying to find out his background.

Only then did Wang Gensheng realize that Sister Xu was also a section chief, but he didn't know whether she was the chief or deputy chief.

Regardless of whether she is the principal or deputy, as a young woman who can climb to such a high position in this patriarchal society, she must be a person with a very strong background.

No wonder she dared to tease me and said she wanted to marry me; it seemed like she really wanted me to marry into her family!

Wang Gensheng is not a rookie in the workplace. After graduating from university, he has worked a few times.

I also know about the competition in the workplace, so of course I won’t reveal my secrets right away and let people see through me.

The words were ambiguous, so Hu Jianye couldn't figure out the truth, so of course he didn't dare to act rashly; plus there was what Sister Xu said before she left.

Section Chief Hu had to at least give him some face, and indeed, he had a smile on his face and spoke more politely.

"Haha, how much do you know about our publicity class?"

"Chief Hu, before I came here to report, Director Wang from the subdistrict office told me to write some big characters and make a big poster. I don't know about other things."

Hu Jianye nodded and patted Wang Gensheng on the shoulder: "You are right. Our main task now is to make sure that the workers understand the spirit of our meeting and to publicize it properly."

"So you have to work hard. Find out which large blank walls in our factory are still there. Write big words in conspicuous places. Make sure they are beautiful and eye-catching."

"Chief, please rest assured that I will use my hands and my work enthusiasm to fully publicize the spirit of our party's meeting. Let the grassroots workers understand and learn from it."

"Okay then, lead the second team of three temporary workers to paint the walls and write slogans!"

Hu Jianye took Wang Gensheng and walked towards the Propaganda Department's office.

After entering the office, I saw the entire Propaganda Department site, which is also quite large.

There were dozens of people inside, carrying buckets of lime or powder.

Among these people was Wang Gensheng’s second group, two men and one woman, who were mixing the white lime material.

When several people saw Section Chief Hu and two other men coming over, they immediately stopped what they were doing, looked up at Hu Jianye, and waited for their leader to give them instructions.

Hu Jianye coughed, pointed at Wang Gensheng and said to the three people, "This is the new street clerk Wang Gensheng, a cultured person. Next, let him be the temporary leader of your group and lead you to paint the walls. Remember to follow his arrangements and actively cooperate with the work."

After arranging the three people, Hu Jianye turned to Wang Gensheng and said, "Wang Gensheng, they all know where the wall that needs to be painted is. You can go there with them later. After they finish painting the wall, you can write the big words on it."

"We have distributed the slogans that need to be written. You can check them with other groups and make the words more beautiful. I will check your work before leaving get off work." After saying this, Hu Jianye patted his butt and left.

"Hello, Team Leader Wang. My name is Xiao Yang. I'm responsible for carrying red paint and moving stools. If you have anything you need, you can assign it to me and I'll carry it for you."

Xiao Yang is the female temporary worker among the three. She probably works outdoors frequently, so her skin is tanned and she has freckles on her face.

His work clothes still had some stains of red paint on them, but they were clean.

Wang Gensheng nodded to her, "I don't have anything to take. This is also the first time I've arranged a job. I don't know what your work process is like. Tell me later, how did you work in the past? Let me get more familiar with it."

"Team Leader Wang, we are responsible for the row of walls on the west side. Today we should work on the 5th and 6th walls. Our workshop has allocated us a flatbed truck, and Dahei and the other two will pull the paint over later."

"They will mix the white lime first and paint the walls white. You will be asked to write big characters on the walls later. Write one side in the morning and the other side in the afternoon."

After hearing the work arrangement, Wang Gensheng's eyes widened. How big is this wall? Work on one side in the morning and one side in the afternoon!

This work efficiency is unparalleled.

When it came to the on-site work, Wang Gensheng was completely speechless again. This job was simply a waste of time!

One wall is less than 30 square meters, and it takes four people a whole hour to work on it.

If future contractors saw the speed at which this work was done, the four of them would definitely come.

Another person was carrying a bucket of white lime, and Dahei dipped the brush in it and smeared it on the wall. His movements were neither hurried nor slow, as if he was painting the furniture in his house. How efficient could this be?

Xiao Yang moved a stool to a shady place and asked Wang Gensheng to sit down. "Team Leader Wang, you can just sit here and take a rest. We can go up after the two of them finish applying the white powder."

"With their work efficiency being so low, it would take them two hours to finish painting this wall, right?"

Xiao Yang frowned and looked at Wang Gensheng, then looked at the two people, Dahei, whom Wang Gensheng was pointing at, and asked uncertainly.

"Team Leader Wang, do you think there's a problem? We've always done this before."

Wang Gensheng was so angry that he laughed, and tried to explain to Xiao Yang: "Don't you have a brush roller? The kind that you pull on the wall and brush it out in one stroke?
