Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

Wang Jianjun rolled his eyes and said speechlessly:

"Director, aren't you forcing people to do what they want? And how many people in the factory can share one pig? That's not enough! It's good enough if each person can eat some minced meat."

"There are other buyers who can help. Director, I can only place my hope on you. How about you ask the villagers to make a few more trips and bring back a few more wild boars?"

Seeing that Director Wang's big hand was about to shake his, Wang Jianjun stopped pretending and said directly:

"Since you said so, Director, I will definitely try my best, but let's make it clear first, I can't guarantee how much I can do."

"Hey, it's good that you pay attention to this matter. The director can't force you to do anything. Don't worry, if I am transferred in the future, the position of director will definitely be left to you."

"No, no, no, this position as the head of the purchasing team is great. I don't want to move for the time being."

"You are such a lack of ambition. Everyone else wants to make progress, but you just like to stay where you are."

Wang Jianjun said indifferently:

"I am a rootless duckweed. It is not necessarily a good thing to rise too high."

Wang Jianjun knew that he was not cut out to be an official.

He remembered what an uncle in the system in his previous life said to him.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a background, then don’t climb too high. The higher you climb, the more dangerous it will be. That’s why his uncle no longer thought about making progress after he was promoted to the department level, and he would not fight for the opportunity even if he had it.

Director Wang looked at Wang Jianjun with some surprise.

He didn't expect Wang Jianjun to say such a thing.

"Speaking of which, Director, are you going to be promoted?"

"It's hard to say. The steel mill is going to expand and recruit more people after the New Year. I got the news that there will be major personnel changes after the New Year."

Although Director Wang said so, Wang Jianjun guessed from his relaxed tone that his promotion was not a sure thing, but it should be very likely.

Since Director Wang has come to him for help, Wang Jianjun is willing to do him a favor.

He brought two big black pigs to the factory a week before the Chinese New Year, and also brought in five big wild boars one after another.

Director Wang was so happy that he almost hugged the wild boars and kissed them.

Five wild boars plus meat obtained by other buyers.

The steel mill was finally able to prepare a meat meal for its employees before the end of the year.

Because there is not much meat and the wild boar meat has a strong taste.

Just add offal and pig blood, then add a lot of salt and other ingredients to make it into soft meat noodles.

In the past, only poor people would eat this kind of food.

But it is considered a good delicacy in this era.

Wang Jianjun found it hard to eat this hodgepodge of food, so he simply gave the meal ticket to Liu Lan.

Liu Lan got the meal ticket and kept thanking him with red eyes.

In addition to this meal before the New Year, another thing people look forward to is the payment of customs salaries at the end of the year.

The steel rolling mill distributes bonuses based on revenue and then according to different work levels.

It usually ranges from a few yuan to more than ten yuan.

People like Wang Jianjun, who are known as excellent purchasers and have brought so many supplies to the factory, can get a bonus of more than ten yuan.

Wang Jianjun had just received his salary and then turned around and sent it to Hong Kong to pay his employees.

Shen Maiqiu had already calculated the wages and commissions, and Wang Jianjun asked the three Lei brothers to call all the employees and pay them their wages one by one.

Seeing more than thirty people looking at him eagerly, Wang Jianjun realized that his team had begun to grow.

"Everyone counts their wages on the spot, and after confirming it, they go to Lei Hu to collect their year-end benefits. Each person gets a barrel of oil, a bag of rice, and ten kilograms of pork."

When they heard about the generous year-end benefits, all the employees excitedly shouted "Long live the boss!"

There were even some smart employees who asked Wang Jian if he was still recruiting, as they were planning to introduce their family members to work there.

"Don't worry, I will give priority to your family members when recruiting in the future. I will recruit more workers after the new year."

After hearing this, everyone left with a smile on their faces.

In the end, only three Lei brothers were left.

Wang Jianjun took out three thick letters from his pocket and handed them over, saying:

"Brother Long, Brother Tiger, Brother Bao, thank you for your hard work this month! This little money is my token of my appreciation. I will have to thank you for your continued hard work next year."

Although the three brothers didn't know how much money was inside the envelope, they knew it was at least a thousand yuan just by looking at the thick envelope.

"Boss, isn't this too much?"

"Hey, it's not that much. This is what you deserve! Open your eyes, we will earn more in the future."

After a month of contact, Wang Jianjun was still very satisfied with these three brothers.

Be serious, responsible and hardworking.

He plans to train these three people well so that they can stand on their own.

After hearing what Wang Jianjun said, the three brothers accepted the money with many thanks.

When the three of them went back and opened the envelope and counted the money, they discovered that there were actually two thousand yuan in it.

They can only earn this much money after working for a year.

Now they have earned two thousand yuan in less than a month, and they just feel like they are dreaming.

"Brother, why don't you slap me and see if I'm dreaming."

Lei Bao, who was a little confused, said this subconsciously.

And the upright Lei Hu actually slapped him.

"Hiss! It hurts! Brother, are you serious?!"

"Didn't you say I'd slap you?"

"..."

"Okay, both of you stop messing around. Let's save this money for now. Leopard, Tiger, if you find someone you like, tell me. You two are old enough to get married."

"Brother, aren't you the oldest one?"

Lei Long waved his hand and said indifferently:

"I'm not in a hurry. My career is just starting. I want to earn more money before considering marriage."

"Then I'm not in a hurry. I also want to make more money. Otherwise, with my current conditions, I can only marry the fishmonger's daughter."

Lei Bao felt a tingling sensation on his scalp when he thought of the strong and healthy daughter of the fishmonger Qiang.

Every time I pass by her, she winks at me.

"What about you, Lei Hu?"

Lei Long looked at Lei Hu, wanting to ask for his opinion.

"I'm not in a hurry. Making money is important."

"Okay, then we'll save the money first. The three of us brothers are lucky to have met a noble man. Boss Wang is a man who can do great things. In the future, we will work hard for Boss Wang. Following him, we will also be able to make a name for ourselves one day."

"Don't worry, brother. I will do my job seriously."

"me too!"

After receiving his salary, Wang Jianjun took Shen Maiqiu and Shen Chuxia to buy a car.

This time what I bought was not a bicycle, but a car.

I have tens of millions of dollars in assets now, so if I were to buy a car, I would definitely buy a four-wheeler.

Shen Maiqiu absolutely agreed with Wang Jianjun's decision to buy a four-wheeler.

Although she can't drive yet, it doesn't hinder her love for cars.

Sitting in a car is much cooler than riding a bicycle.

The three of them went to the car dealership for a look, and finally picked a Prince brand car according to the two girls' preferences.

A car costs yuan.

This is simply unaffordable for ordinary people.

But it’s just a small matter for Wang Jianjun now.
