Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

The things Chen Xu purchases now are basically grains, supplemented by meat and other things.

There was nothing he could do about it. After all, the breeding business in his space had just started. Apart from the usual fish, other meat was hard to find, not to mention that he had to keep it for himself.

But this is also in line with the consistent image of the purchasing staff, and in fact other people are the same. They are more likely to replace grains or other local specialties such as wild mushrooms, and meat is completely optional.

Chen Xu's previous way of counting things as meat actually seemed very different. As for now, Chen Xu, who is mixed in with the purchasers, not only purchases more supplies each time, but is more like a serious purchaser.

The director was very satisfied; the changes in the materials purchased by Chen Xu did not give him any extra thoughts.

In the past, Chen Xu had indeed purchased a lot of dry goods and the like, but those things were limited after all. Once Chen Xu had collected all the dry goods in his hometown, it would naturally be difficult to purchase more.

Now Chen Xu has taken the initiative to purchase miscellaneous grains. This is also a kind of transformation, which means that in addition to game, Chen Xu also has other ways to be competent for the job of a buyer.

The director patted Chen Xu on the shoulder and was very pleased.

After all, relying solely on game is only temporary. If you want to do this job well, other things are indispensable. Chen Xu's current performance is worthy of his promotion to a formal buyer.

When the others saw Chen Xu's gains, they had nothing to say. They could only say that the director had a keen eye and was able to find Chen Xu, a capable person, in the crowd.

For a buyer, everything except the supplies is empty.

If you want to convince others, then use facts to convince them. If you can purchase more materials than others, then we will respect you as a formal employee. Otherwise, haha.

There are actually very few regular employees in the purchasing department. Apart from Chen Xu, there are only three others, and one of them was suspended while working in the countryside.

As for other buyers who are still apprentices, the director said if they want to become regular employees, that's fine, just compare them with Chen Xu.

Therefore, the purchasing staff in the purchasing department have a complicated attitude towards Chen Xu. They admire him but also feel a little resentful. We admire you if you have the ability, but you set the standards for purchasing staff so high. How can we survive?

Especially in the past six months, this damn stuff was either wild game or dried goods, which made others look desperate and started complaining in their hearts why their hometown was not in the mountains anymore.

The situation is much better now. At least Chen Xu has started to purchase miscellaneous grains.

Chen Xu had no idea that his selling of miscellaneous grains made him seem more normal in the eyes of his colleagues. For example, many buyers took the initiative to say hello and ask about the situation in the countryside.

Chen Xu did not hide it. Besides, he only knew the situation in his hometown. As for other places, he really had no idea. But even so, he could provide some reference for these colleagues.

Since he had great success in the countryside, many people became interested, but because a formal buyer disappeared last time, many people began to back off.

Although purchasing is important, it is naturally not worth mentioning compared to my own nickname.

What's more, the buyers going to the countryside are like delicious buns. To those who want to take advantage of them, they are completely soft persimmons.

Chen Xu was not worried about this because he had put all his things in the space. Even if someone with ulterior motives saw his appearance, they would have to consider whether it was worth it. After all, compared to things like bicycles that were difficult to sell, food and the like were hard currency.

Chen Xu, who was alone, was obviously not their target, but it was hard to say about the other purchasers who were obviously carrying baskets filled with supplies on the back of their cars. Even if they were covered with something, everyone knew that the purchasers were purchasing those supplies.

It's basically all food. Food is more important than anything else during this period. The danger of being a purchaser is self-evident.

Chen Xu couldn't directly explain to his colleagues that it was very dangerous to go to the countryside now, for fear that someone would suspect that Chen Xu wanted to hinder their progress, so he could only mention it vaguely.

But people tend to forget things, and it had been a while since the regular worker disappeared, so many people were thinking of going to the countryside again.

"Okay, everyone has their own aspirations. If you want to be a good buyer, you have to take some risks. Let alone others, you go to the countryside more often than anyone else."

The director looked at Chen Xu, whose expression was somewhat serious, and thought that he was worried about the safety of his colleagues. He had just been watching Chen Xu chatting with his colleagues, and could more or less hear the dangers that he vaguely mentioned.

"The director is right."

In fact, Chen Xu was not worried about his colleagues. It was definitely impossible to go to the countryside to purchase large quantities of supplies now. It would be safer with fewer supplies. He was now thinking about what to eat for lunch. Director Chen Xu had obviously misunderstood.

It's still early, and Chen Xu is too lazy to eat in the cafeteria today. He plans to go out for a walk later, so he will definitely need to take care of his lunch by himself.

The purchasing amounts for formal workers are much more relaxed than those for apprentices, and there are no restrictions. After all, you can get the amount you want as long as it's not too outrageous. This is considered a privilege for formal buyers.

After all, those who are good at this business all have their own ways. Usually, they can get supplies with luck, but it is troublesome to trade without money.

Chen Xu now basically has 300 yuan plus various receipts. If he has nothing left, he will apply again. At the end of the month, they will settle the accounts together and refund the excess and make up the shortfall. He always keeps enough money and receipts on him.

Director Chen was not surprised, after all, other regular employees were the same.

It is not far from the end of the month now, and Chen Xu has not applied for funds again. After deducting his own share, he still has a lot left. Moreover, he has no intention of going to the countryside again this month. It is enough for him to visit the pigeon market on weekdays.

"Take a good rest for a few days. You must have been exhausted during this period."

"Okay, Director."

Chen Xu said that he was indeed exhausted. How could he not be tired when he was almost faint?

When he went out, he didn't find Xu Damao in the projection room. He heard from the Propaganda Department that Xu Damao had gone to show movies for the leader. Chen Xu nodded slightly. He knew about this, but he didn't know whether the place where Xu Damao went to show movies was still the home of the big leader in his memory.

Speaking of which, Chen Xu and Xu Damao are from two different camps. The director of the Propaganda Department is one of the few leaders in the steel rolling mill who remains neutral. He neither sides with Director Yang nor stands with Li Huaide. He is a bit of a fence-sitter.

Apart from the Security Department, only a few other departments in the steel mill remained neutral.

The Propaganda Department is one of them, and the other is the factory party office, which is similar to the security department and is not under the jurisdiction of any factory leader. Its status is higher than others, but it has no presence in the steel rolling mill.

Not finding Xu Damao, Chen Xu no longer wanted to stay in the steel rolling mill and decisively returned to the courtyard. There were still a lot of things in the house, so he had to go back and check to make sure no one messed with them again.

Even if it is locked, it is not that safe. After all, it can only protect against gentlemen, not villains. If someone really wants to open it, there are ways to do it. Besides, there is no such thing as a gentleman in this courtyard.

Chen Xu could only use a tough attitude to show that he was not easy to mess with. As for the rest, he could only take things as they come.

But in this world, there are too many things that only remember to eat and not to be beaten.
