Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

With Director Wang's presence, Yu Shui successfully entered the first grade of elementary school, and Jia Dongxu paid 1 yuan in tuition.

"Dongxu, I'll take you to your factory. I'll give you a ride." Seeing that Jia Dongxu readily agreed to bring the meat, Director Wang planned to send Jia Dongxu to report.

Jia Dongxu was originally still thinking about how to meet Director Lou, but after Director Wang sent him off, he no longer had to do so.

"Auntie Wang, have you ever met Director Lou before?" Jia Dongxu asked knowingly. Most of the workers in this steel rolling mill lived in the street under Director Wang's jurisdiction. How could she have never met Director Lou?

"I've met him. Your Director Lou is a big shot. He's known as Half the City in Beijing." Director Wang joked.

"Then Director Wang will have to speak up for me and ask him to give me a higher salary." Jia Dongxu said jokingly.

"No problem. As long as you have the ability, Director Lou will give you a grade. Currently, steel mills get their salaries based on ratings." Director Wang laughed.

Director Wang obviously came here often. When the security officer at the gate saw him, he hurried forward to greet him, and then habitually took Director Wang to the building where the factory director's office was located.

Director Lou had just arrived and when he saw Director Wang coming over, he stepped forward to greet him.

After the two of them greeted each other, Director Wang got straight to the point and said, "Director Lou, I'm here to send a young man from our street to the factory to complete the employment procedures."

After listening to Director Wang's words, Director Lou looked at Jia Dongxu carefully and asked, "Young man, which workshop are you going to?"

Jia Dongxu said hurriedly, "Hello, Director. I want to be a fitter apprentice in the first workshop to take over my father's job. My father passed away in an accident in the factory a few years ago."

"But Director Lou, I would like to apply to you to transfer to the Security Department."

When Director Lou heard that it was the son of one of his former employees who was going to take over the job, he nodded with satisfaction. This was the son of a steel mill employee. When he heard Jia Dongxu said he wanted to work in the security department, he asked in confusion, "Why do you want to work in the security department? The work in the security department doesn't require much technical skills, and there's no future for it."

"Director, the work of the security department is very important. As the first line of safety in production, we must prevent enemy agents from sabotaging, register and arrange for visitors, conduct safety checks on vehicles entering and leaving the factory, and prevent the loss of steel in the factory. I don't think this kind of work is without technical content."

Director Lou nodded and said, "You are very knowledgeable young man. Have you ever been to school?"

Jia Dongxu quickly said, "Junior high school education, and good handwriting!"

"You also have beautiful handwriting? Come on, write it for me to see!" Director Lou said with interest. It was not easy to say that you had beautiful handwriting at this time.

Director Lou took one or two people to the director's office, then took out a pen and a piece of paper and handed them to Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu took the pen, thought for a moment, and wrote a line of words, "Factory safety is more important than Mount Tai."

Director Lou took the pen and paper, looked at them and nodded, "Director Wang, you brought me a talented person today."

"Factory safety is of paramount importance!" Director Lou muttered, "Not bad, not bad, you have ideas and a high level of thinking."

"Young man, what's your name?" asked Director Lou.

"Director, my name is Jia Dongxu." Jia Dongxu replied from the side.

"Okay, Xiaojia, how about this, since you are new to the factory, I will assign you the position of clerk in the Security Department. Familiarize yourself with the affairs of the Security Department as soon as possible. The Security Department will be handed over to you in the future." Director Lou said as he took a pen and wrote a personnel appointment letter for the steel rolling mill on a piece of white paper.

Although the steel rolling mill has been taken over now, the operation and personnel appointments are still under the charge of Director Lou.

After handing the appointment letter to Jia Dongxu, he said to Director Wang beside him, "Director Wang, you have sent me a talented person. I would like to invite you to have a simple meal in the factory to express your gratitude. And please take Xiao Jia to meet the people in the security department."

"Well, okay, then I'll come again at noon." Director Wang hesitated, looked at Jia Dongxu again, and then nodded in agreement.

Director Lou noticed Director Wang's reaction, then secretly paid attention to the young man next to him, and sent Director Wang away with a smile.

When he came back, he saw Jia Dongxu waiting at the door of the factory director's office, so he asked, "Xiao Jia, why aren't you waiting in the room?"

"Director, I'm the factory security guard now. Your office is open and there may be confidential information. I'm guarding it here." Jia Dongxu replied quickly. The main reason was that he didn't know what to do next. Instead of doing nothing, he might as well find a reason to wait for Director Lou.

Director Lou smiled. This kid is quite smart. "Come in and talk to me."

Seeing Jia Dongxu standing upright, Director Lou asked, "Have you ever been a soldier? The way you stand looks a bit like a soldier."

"Director, I have never been a soldier, but I learned it by watching soldiers practice," said Jia Dongxu.

"It seems that you are a smart person, worthy of being the son of our steel mill." Director Lou said, "How old are you this year? How is your family doing now?"

"Director, I just turned 18 this year. I live in Courtyard 95 in Tongluoguxiang. I work as a steward in the courtyard. When I was 14, my father died in an accident at the factory. I was raised by my mother."

"Born in 46, oh, I remember whose family you are from. It's great that you've grown up so big." Director Lou said with a smile, "Your father is an old man in our Lou Steel Rolling Mill."

"But you are a good kid. You can actually become the boss of the yard. If I remember correctly, there are several old employees living in your yard No. 95, including Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, oh, Master He Daqing also lives in your yard." It seems that Director Lou was quite familiar with these people before.

"Director, how do you know them?" Jia Dongxu asked puzzledly.

"Haha, I just took over the steel mill in 46. At that time, there were not many people in the factory. Production was still thanks to them. Later, I simply arranged them all to live in one yard."

"Are there many uncles in charge in your hospital? I remember that there were only three people arranged at that time." Director Lou asked, thinking of the past.

"Not many. Some time ago, there were three managers, but now there are only two managers in the hospital." Jia Dongxu will not forget to flatter.

"I didn't expect you to be so capable at such a young age!" Director Lou said, and then looked at Jia Dongxu, "Go on, are you really willing to be a security officer? How about I transfer you to another department, how about a purchasing officer in the purchasing department?"

"Director, if I can work part-time, I will do it!" Jia Dongxu said, patting his chest.

"You should first familiarize yourself with the work of the Security Department." Director Lou smiled and ignored his part-time job. This kid hasn't even started his full-time job yet, but he's already thinking about a part-time job.

"Okay, take your appointment letter to the Personnel Department on the second floor to complete your employment registration. Follow your director to the canteen at noon."
