Chapter 690 Who Told You This? How Come I Don’t Know?
At twelve o'clock at noon, the get off work bell rang on time.
Li Ye followed his colleague Xiaoyue and picked up their satchels to get off work.
Colleague Yue Lingshan saw Li Ye following her to the factory gate, and asked curiously: "Hey, Li Ye, you didn't eat in the cafeteria today?"
Before Li Ye could answer, she smiled mischievously and said, "You're not used to the pig food in the cafeteria, right? One meal is enough!"
Li Ye quickly shook his head and smiled: "No, I have something to do at noon today, so I won't eat at work."
Yue Lingshan tilted her head and looked at Li Ye, and said with a smile: "Don't be embarrassed. Everyone says the food in the cafeteria is terrible. There are two small restaurants at the door that taste good. Can I lead you over and identify the door?"
"No, no, I'm not that pretentious. Why don't you go out to a restaurant before your salary is paid and make people laugh? Hahaha~"
Li Ye smiled and refused. He didn't want rumors that he was "greedy" to appear in the factory tomorrow.
Yue Lingshan looked at Li Ye up and down, and finally laid her eyes on Li Ye's satchel.
"Yes, when you first start working, you have to be a little frugal and at least buy a bicycle."
Li Ye's clothes were customized and looked pleasing to the eye, but they didn't have labels, so Yue Lingshan wasn't sure how much they were worth.
But Li Ye's satchel is a standard military green bag. Although it is considered fashionable these days, it is far less fashionable than the cowhide satchel that Yue Lingshan carries.
In addition, Li Ye walked to work on two legs, so Yue Lingshan mistakenly thought that Li Ye was a good and frugal boy.
In fact, Li Ye has a cowhide backpack, and there are many of them. Some were sent by Fan Xiuling from Hong Kong Island, and some were bought for him by his younger wife Wen Leyu.
But Li Ye feels that it is good to carry a military green bag that "serves the people". It has a sense of the times and is not conspicuous at all among the crowd.
But Li Ye's means of transportation is very conspicuous.
The directors of the factory office all ride Feiges, but Li Ye drives Santana.
So Li Ye didn't drive the car to the work, but put it several hundred meters away from the work, several alleys away.
A Fenghua clothing store opened there. My sister Li Yue said hello, and a special parking space was arranged at the door. There was also someone to look after Li Ye's car on a voluntary basis.
Li Ye turned two alleys and arrived at another street. Three minutes later, the red Santana drove briskly east.
But Li Ye didn't want to drive back to Dongbian Zaojun Temple, but to find someone.
Not long after he drove along the street, he saw a bicycle repair stall, and Director Lu from the factory office was sitting on a horse, anxiously urging the master to repair his tire quickly.
Lu Zhizhang just rode out of the factory gate today, and the rear wheel was flat. When he looked carefully, he found that several thumbtacks had been pushed in.
Cursing in his mind, he hurriedly pushed it to the repair stall to repair the tire.
The children at home who are in junior high school are still waiting for him to come home and cook!
"Woo~"
While Lu Zhizhang was anxious, the sound of a car engine suddenly sounded in his ears.
As soon as he turned around, he found a red Santana parked next to him.
"Whose car is this? Why is it parked next to me?"
Lu Zhizhang subconsciously looked at the license plate and made sure it was not the cars he knew.
Santana was launched in 1984, and production capacity began to be increased in 1985, but it is still in short supply in 1986.
So even if Lu Zhizhang is the director of the factory office of a large state-owned enterprise, he only knows a few Santanas that may park next to him.
After all, all the car drivers these days are very good. Even if you are from a related unit, you may not be able to see you, a deputy director, riding a bicycle.
But Lu Zhizhang didn't recognize the license plate of this car, but he knew the driver who got out of the car.
After Li Ye got out of the car, he smiled and said, "Director Lu, is your car broken down?"
Lu Zhizhang said in surprise: "Hey, Xiao Li, whose car are you driving?"
Li Ye smiled and said: "I borrowed my sister's. I have been busy with moving these days, so I borrowed a car to use. The capital is really too big. It only takes an hour or two to take the bus, which is a lot of time." They were all delayed on the road.”
"You are absolutely right," Lu Zhizhang said with a smile: "The capital is really big. It takes one day to go from the east to the west. Does Xiao Li have a driver's license? Don't drive without a license."
Li Ye nodded: "Yes, yes. In a few days, I will have to transfer the driver's license to our unit. Then I will have to trouble Director Lu."
"Hey, isn't that what it should be? No trouble, no trouble."
Lu Zhizhang looked at Li Ye and felt more and more pleasing to his eyes.
When this child came to report last week, he felt different. He was handsome and energetic, and he had a very calm temperament, which made people feel comfortable coming into contact with him.
At this time, the tire repairman said to Lu Zhizhang: "Hey, comrade, you have three holes in the inner tube, and I can't finish them in ten minutes!"
Lu Zhizhang said unhappily: "Just hurry up and make up for it. I won't save you money."
The tire repairman lowered his head while working and explained: "I'm not talking about money. Didn't you rush home just now to cook for the children? I have to tell you, don't be anxious then."
"Hey, you idiot!"
Lu Zhizhang felt a little uncomfortable. There were three holes in the bicycle, which clearly meant someone was causing trouble.
Generally in the workplace, who are the people who are tricked?
Lu Zhizhang is also the director of the factory office, and has the right to make suggestions on all matters such as housing allocation, job positions, etc. This makes it easy for others to label him as "unfair".
Wouldn't it be embarrassing to be seen by Li Ye now?
Li Ye was not embarrassed at all, because these three holes were hey hey.
"Director Lu, you still have to rush home to cook for the children! Then I'll take you back quickly. Leave the bike here and let the master repair it. Can you come over and ride it in the afternoon?"
"Huh? Isn't this inappropriate?"
"What's inappropriate about this? It's just a matter of pressing the accelerator of our own car."
"Well, that's okay, I'm sorry to bother you, Xiao Li."
"What kind of trouble is this? When I work in the factory in the future, I don't know how many things I will have to trouble Director Lu!"
In the eyes of middle-aged people, the oldest child in the world is the biggest. The children in Lu Zhizhang's family are at the critical stage of growing up and taking the high school entrance examination. This cannot delay the children's meals.
Lu Zhizhang's home is not far from his work, just a few turns away. Li Ye drives very fast, it's really just a matter of pressing the accelerator.
"I really didn't see it! Li Ye, your driving skills are pretty good!"
"Ah? Haha, to tell you the truth, Director Lu, I am a veteran driver with four years of driving experience. If my sister drives back to her hometown during the summer vacation, I will have to drive more than half of the distance for her!"
"Yeah?"
Lu Zhizhang glanced at Li Ye and asked casually: "Which company does your sister belong to? The company did not assign her a driver?"
Li Ye said naturally: "My sister is from the Beijing office of Pengcheng No. 7 Factory, which is the Fenghua brand clothing. Their unit does have a few full-time drivers, but there are more cars than drivers. Who owns the several salesmen? Anyone who needs to drive has a book.”
"Hey, there are more cars than drivers. Are you so wealthy?"
Lu Zhizhang was a little surprised. After all, in state-owned enterprises, there are countless people vying for the position of a small car driver. As a result, there are more cars than drivers.
"It's not lavish," Li Ye explained with a smile, "It's just that we don't hire so many drivers. Most people can drive anyway, so let them do the work of two people for one salary."
The thing is indeed like this. Li Yue has several full-time drivers who come in handy during drinking occasions, and they usually have a lot of free time.
Lu Zhizhang smiled and said: "Okay! How can one person do two jobs? This is giving your sister a car for free! I am also willing to do this job."
He has already figured it out. Since the company has more cars than drivers, what kind of borrowing method is Li Ye's car? Is it the kind that you borrow and never pay back?
This kind of thing is not uncommon these days.
Li Ye said with a smile: "It's not like I'm giving you a car for nothing! It's just that their unit has a strong sense of humanity. If employees really have needs, they will be accommodating.
I have to move again in the past few days, and I am very busy with wedding matters, so my sister gave me the car. I usually don’t drive it much when I have nothing to do. "
"Exhausted?"
Lu Zhizhang glanced at Li Ye and asked with a smile: "Xiao Li, are you in trouble about your marriage?"
Li Ye nodded slowly and said disappointedly: "Yes! Originally we were all going to get the certificates, but I heard that the rules here in Beijing are different from those in my hometown. Men who are not 23 are not allowed to get a letter of introduction.
I am explaining this to my wife! Everything was prepared over there, but something went wrong on my side, so I was worried, right? "
"Can't get a letter of introduction?"
Lu Zhizhang smiled playfully, and then said doubtfully: "Who told you? Why didn't I know about this?"
It's okay if you don't know. If you do, I'll have to find someone else.
However, Li Ye did not say what was in his heart, but said with some surprise: "I heard what the people in the department said! They also asked me to find someone who understands to ask,
I just came to the unit and I don’t understand anything. Director Lu, why don’t I host it today and we can find a place to do it. Can you let me understand it? "
Lu Zhizhang waved his hands quickly and said: "No, I have to go back and cook for the children!"
But how could Li Ye give up so easily? He immediately said: "Then let's pick up the child and come out to eat together! Or we can order a few dishes and bring them home for the child to eat."
"No, no, no, the kids are used to eating the food I cook," Lu Zhizhang said with a smile, "Let's do that! Come to the office to see me as soon as you get to work in the afternoon, and I'll open a letter of introduction for you.
The important matter of marriage cannot be delayed for a moment. It doesn’t matter if you make your daughter-in-law angry, but it is no small matter if you make your mother-in-law angry~"
"Ah? Thank you very much, Director Lu, but we still have to eat this meal."
"Hey, what's for dinner? Just give me a few wedding candies to eat when the time comes. When we're here, you can just stop at the door."
Lu Zhizhang directed Li Ye to park the car at the door of the dormitory, opened the door neatly and got out of the car.
Li Ye had no choice but to come down and say: "Director Lu, I will wait for you here when you go to work!"
Lu Zhizhang waved his hand: "No, I can just sneak over by myself."
"."
Li Ye looked at Lu Zhizhang who entered the dormitory building. He really didn't expect this man to be so straightforward that he didn't even use the two red pagodas in the trunk.
In the 1980s, the trend of giving cigarettes and alcoholic drinks to people in a relationship was very popular, and Li Ye didn't think he could completely avoid the custom. As long as the person looked okay, then giving two cigarettes was nothing.
But this Lu Zhizhang's structure is much higher than that of Section Chief Wu Qingyi.
[Haha~ Is this what is called having help from a noble person? 】
Li Ye, who had been struggling for more than ten years in his previous life, knew that there were not so many so-called noble people in the world.
You can meet a noble person, either when the noble person just needs to "use" someone, you just happen to be in that position and use him/her.
Or you have your own value and are worth others' investment.
A noble person who is exchanged for a few cigarettes and a few bottles of wine is not a noble person.
Li Ye just showed part of his value. Although he only has a capable sister, it is already worth Lu Zhizhang's convenience.
It's just a letter of introduction. Whether you are old enough to get married is something that the marriage registration office needs to identify. What does it have to do with you?
Li Ye shook his head and drove back to the car repair stall.
"Master, don't fix the tire. Please change it with a new one."
"What, I have already fixed two. You can change it if you say so. Do you pay?"
"Yes, I will pay."
"."
Li Ye helped to change the new tire, then found a place to eat, and then went to wait for Lu Zhizhang on the way to work.
People said that you don't need to send it, do you really take it?
You have to do things thoroughly. People don't want to smoke or drink, but you can't be ignorant.
After all, you offended Section Chief Wu, and he said he wanted to eat wedding candy. Should I treat him when I get married?
