Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Then Chen Changan came to the finance office and found Deputy Director Hou who was in charge of logistics and finance.

"What a rare guest! Director Chen hasn't come to our finance department for a long time.

You suddenly came to our finance department today. Do you have any instructions?"

Hou Yan welcomed the fact that Hou Mingjun was not favored by Chen Changan.

The Hou family had been poor peasants for three generations.

By her generation, she could only barely recognize a few words and was assigned to work as a financial officer in the street office.

Following Chen Changan, he unknowingly became the deputy factory director.

Not only that, the next generation of their family produced a deputy factory director.

For the Hou family, who had no support at all, this was no longer just smoke coming out of their ancestral tomb, but a fire.

Unlike Hou Mingjun who was only interested in climbing up the ladder, Hou Yan saw things very clearly.

The position of deputy factory director is basically the limit for the Hou family.

Their family's biggest supporter is Chen Changan. They and Chen Changan are actually grasshoppers on the same rope.

As long as Chen Changan doesn't fall, she will always have a place in the car factory.

Even according to recent rumors, Chen Changan is likely to be promoted.

As long as Chen Changan does not fall, the Hou family will still have a place in the automobile factory.

Chen Changan was just promoted, not defeated. Even if the department parachuted in a new factory director.

At most, they would suppress her and change the department she is in charge of.

After all, finance is the money bag of the automobile factory, and people would not let someone they don't trust take charge of it.

But at Hou Yan's level, appointment and dismissal are no longer a matter of the factory director's words.

Even if he really wanted to suppress her, he still had to give Chen Changan face, regardless of the higher-ups.

So Hou Yan knew very well that her life was coming to an end.

Being able to retire as deputy director of a car factory is already the best outcome.

How can an ordinary family achieve class advancement without the efforts of two or three generations?

Hou Yan has made all the plans for her child, and it would be best if he could get into a technical secondary school.

If he fails the exam, let Hou Mingjun arrange a more comfortable job for him.

With Hou Mingjun and I taking care of him, he would be able to live a peaceful and stable life.

If I could really get into a technical secondary school, that would be great.

“As for the community plan for our auto factory, the leaders there said it was inconvenient for them to eat.

They thought of eating in our factory cafeteria, and I agreed because I saw it was not easy for them.

I have already informed Nan Yi and asked him to use unplanned purchasing agents to bring back some food.

For now, it will be the same as the food for our factory workers."

Then Chen Changan took out an envelope from his arms and placed it on Hou Yan's desk.

"This is the two thousand yuan they gave us. We will use this money for unplanned purchases.

If it’s not enough, tell me and I’ll go ask them for more.”

Hou Yan first took a look at the money in the envelope, then took it out and looked at it.

He immediately raised his head and looked at Chen Changan in surprise.

People who work in finance often deal with money, especially Hou Yan, the financial director of a large state-owned enterprise.

There is no concept of financial director at this time, otherwise Hou Yan would definitely be the financial director.

And after the last financial incident of losing money.

Every time Hou Yan went to the bank to withdraw money, he would show up in person.

They were accompanied by a large group of armed security personnel in several cars who escorted them along the way.

It can be said that every month when the salary is paid, the money passes through Hou Yan's hands several times.

Unlike ordinary people, financial people usually pay attention to the numbers on the coins.

Hou Yan just took a few glances and immediately knew that the money was definitely not given by the construction team.

As the highest-ranking employee in the factory, Chen Changan’s monthly salary has reached 200 yuan.

Chen Changan’s monthly salary was prepared personally by Hou Yan.

After all, Hou Yan sometimes feels envious of such a high salary.

Every time, Hou Yan would give Chen Changan an envelope and put the money in it.

The envelope that Chen Changan brought this time was made by this hand.

That would be fine, as I was very familiar with the numbers on several of the big black tens.

Combining the above points, Hou Yan could easily conclude that the so-called "money given by the construction team" mentioned by Chen Changan was a lie.

But this is normal. She doesn't know how Chen Changan talked with the other party.

Perhaps because he was in a hurry to eat tomorrow, Chen Changan paid for the other party first.

Or it could be due to some reasons that you don’t know about, all of these are possible.

Having been the deputy factory director for such a long time, she still knows what to say and what not to say.

Sometimes, people need to be smarter, and sometimes, they need to act dumber.

"Director, there is no precedent for allowing people from other factories to eat in our factory cafeteria.

And will your superiors agree to this? Will it have any impact on you?"

It was Chen Changan’s own money, so Hou Yan could pretend not to recognize it.

However, Hou Yan still needs to remind Chen Changan that the construction team can eat in the factory cafeteria.

Money is easy to deal with, as long as the accounts match. But this matter may have an impact on Chen Changan.

After all, this spot on Chen Changan's butt is a very popular spot.

How many people are watching Chen Changan? Doing this will likely lead to gossip and have a bad impact.

Chen Changan is the biggest backer of their Hou family, and she doesn't want anything to happen to Chen Changan.

"That's all for now, I'll report the situation to Master Nie later.

I don't have any respect for Uncle Nie. How can he make things difficult for me when it comes to feeding these hundreds of people? It's not like I'm not paying for the meal."

“Paying for a meal is one thing, but just paying is not enough, you also need a ticket.

Although life has been better in the past two years, many people are still afraid of hunger.

Now, even if we have grain, who would dare to sell it?

Relying on those unplanned buyers in the purchasing department to purchase food?

Do they have this ability?

I'm afraid that in the end we will still need to use the food allocated in our factory's plan.

Even though the food consumed by these hundreds of people seems insignificant compared to tens of thousands of people.

This is not something that can be achieved in just one or two days. If it goes on for a long time, I’m afraid it won’t be possible to make up for it.

I think, if the construction team really wants to eat in our factory.

Why not ask them to send food over here, so that they can eat in our factory and at least have enough food to eat."

Hou Yan’s idea was correct and her reminder was timely.

"Okay, I get it, let's leave it at that for now.

I'll go report to Uncle Nie and see if the department can provide our factory with some more food." Hou Yan smiled when she heard that Chen Changan was going to get food.

Don’t be fooled by the glamorous appearance of the automobile factory. In fact, the daily food consumption of tens of thousands of people is also very shocking.

It would be even better if Chen Changan could get some more food from the ministry.

"Okay, I'll keep the money for now. Let's see if the buyers can buy more food than planned."
