Chapter 591 Finding Old Wang Again
Chapter 591 Finding Old Wang Again
For Wang Jianguo's sake, Lu Jiangting still swallowed his pride and went to see Lao Xu.
There was nothing he could do. He was from out of town and didn't have any connections. He had no other option but to approach a leader.
Wang Jianguo kept urging him, crying and complaining that if he didn't find a job soon, he and his son would starve to death.
Fang Qing, however, has not returned their money.
If only my brother were still alive.
With a clatter, he started telling stories from his childhood, how his older brother folded paper airplanes for him and taught him how to set traps for wild rabbits in the mountains.
The Wang Jianjun he described was so vivid that it made Lu Jiangting's heart ache.
In response, Lu Jiangting gave him fifty yuan for living expenses and told him to wait a little longer while he would find a solution as soon as possible.
Old Xu didn't know Wang Jianjun, and his personality was unlike his second uncle, Old Wang. He would help his subordinates with their difficulties whenever possible, and his network of connections was far inferior to Old Wang's.
So he was a bit confused about this.
I thought to myself, this young man is indeed capable, but isn't he a bit too shameless?
I was looking for a job for the younger brother of my comrade who passed away many years ago, and the connection they found through connections actually led them to me.
Old Xu listened quietly to him finish speaking, and then said, "You should know that I was transferred from Beijing."
Lu Jiangting nodded blankly.
“Although my mother is from Nancheng, I am not. To be honest, I probably only come to Nancheng once every two or three years. If my maternal grandparents hadn’t gotten old and were in poor health, and if my mother hadn’t insisted on coming back to take care of them, I probably wouldn’t have taken this opportunity to go back to Nancheng.”
Lu Jiangting remained stunned.
Old Xu continued, "The people I know best around here are my second uncle and my maternal grandparents. My biggest connection is also with my second uncle. If you're looking for me, you might as well go directly to my second uncle."
Lu Jiangting understood, slunk out, and then decided to visit Old Wang, who had already retired, this weekend.
Old Xu's voice was quite loud, and Yi Yunshuo, who always loved to eavesdrop on Lu Jiangting's affairs, heard it clearly. After returning, he reported it to Fu Huaiyi.
"Old Xu didn't agree, and told him to go find Old Wang."
Fu Huaiyi raised an eyebrow.
Yi Yunshuo continued in a low voice, "I wonder if Old Wang will still be able to handle things after retirement. If Old Wang isn't, I think..." He looked at Fu Huaiyi and chuckled, "I think he'll shamelessly come looking for you."
Fu Huaiyi: "..."
"If you don't resolve this, he'll probably still have the nerve to go to Sister Lin."
Fu Huaiyi: "He's courting death."
The suicidal people came in, but he only glanced at them indifferently before returning to his post.
Yi Yunshuo chuckled and said, "If he finds out the truth, he'll probably bite Wang Jianguo to death."
"Brother Yi, when are we going to give him the photos?"
How can I give him a photo that's so blurry it's unrecognizable?
Yi Yunshuo: "..."
"Next time, try to be more careful and take a clearer picture."
Just then, Old Xu stood at the door and shouted, "Come out and move your things."
A batch of renovation equipment arrived today, so we need to remodel their workstations.
We're not working this afternoon, so let's all work together to install it.
A partition was added in the middle, and a cabinet and an L-shaped table were added to each person's workstation.
We also need to replace the stools with chairs for them.
In this way, everyone is like having their own small, private office.
It looks sophisticated and high-end, but it actually isolates them from each other.
If you want to talk, you have to straighten up, raise your head, and speak louder.
In other words, if you're discussing work-related matters without any issues, but if you start talking to your boss with your head down like before, forget about getting noticed.
After the installation was completed, everyone was beaming with joy, feeling as if they had their own private office.
Reclining in his chair, Yi Yunshuo joked, "Wouldn't you say we get the treatment of leaders?"
Fu Huaiyi hummed in response, but Yi Yunshuo didn't hear it.
"Brother Yi?"
The sound was a bit too loud.
Fu Huaiyi could only reply casually, "At work, what are you doing?"
Yi Yunshuo: "It's so late, time to get off work."
It seems like it's time to leave work.
Seeing everyone around him packing up and leaving, Fu Huaiyi also began to pack his things.
Yi Yunshuo came around from next door and said, "It looks fashionable, but it's not convenient for us to talk."
“You can speak louder.”
"You can't just say everything out loud." Yi Yunshuo finally realized what was going on. "Who came up with this dirty trick? How are we supposed to whisper to each other now that we're like this?"
Fu Huaiyi: "I brought you here to work, not to slack off."
……
Lin Yuyao and Fu Huaiyi were going to attend their uncle's family reunion banquet over the weekend. They arrived early, thinking they might buy some gifts for him.
Fu Huaiyi looked at the toy guns in the shop window and said, "How about we buy this one?"
Lin Yuyao: "What kind should we buy? We don't know how big it is."
"Of course, the better one is better, so they can play with it when they grow up." He held up a meter-long one. "Let's take this one. Kids always like big ones."
Lin Yuyao: "This is too dangerous. Kids don't know their own strength. What if they hit someone?"
"Then what should we buy? Toy guns are all dangerous, even the worst kind hurts if they hit you. How about... how about we buy a toy car?"
Lin Yuyao was speechless. "Why do you always think about these things? Can't we just buy a longevity lock or something? It's meaningful and not dangerous."
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."
There was a gold shop nearby, and Fu Huaiyi took her there, but on the way they unexpectedly ran into Lu Jiangting, who was carrying two bags of fruit candy.
He didn't see them; he must have been in a hurry and disappeared in no time.
Fu Huaiyi said, "He went to visit Old Wang."
"Minister Wang, who just retired?"
"Yes."
Lin Yuyao said with a hint of sarcasm, "He's quite loyal and affectionate. Even though Old Wang has retired, he still went to see him and bought two bags of fruit candy."
Fu Huaiyi: "Old Wang stops eating as soon as he eats candy."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"He went to Lao Wang for help finding a job."
"What job? He got fired?"
"No, he helped Wang Jianguo find a job."
"Huh? You're asking Old Wang for help with this too?"
"If he doesn't look for Lao Wang, he has no one else to look for."
Remembering what Yi Yunshuo had said, she added, "No, he'll have to come looking for the two of us."
Lin Yuyao: "..." That's really shameless.
Let's hope he succeeds.
In the end, the two chose a 100-gram gold longevity lock, which was about the right weight. They didn't know how old the child was, and what if he was still young? It wouldn't be easy for him to wear something too heavy.
When they arrived at the restaurant, they saw their uncle's family warmly greeting the guests, and their grandfather and several other elderly men chatting and laughing heartily about something.
Fu Huaiyi led Lin Yuyao over to greet the elders.
As they left, one of the old men said, "The old leader is so lucky. His grandson is so outstanding, and he has such a sharp eye. He even found an outstanding wife."
