Chapter 444: Today Is Different From the Past
After dinner, Zhang Xiuyan took her eldest granddaughter to find Xu's mother who was washing dishes.
"Shall I help you?"
Xu Ma waved her hand: "No, no, there are only a few bowls in total. They will be washed soon."
"Ahem, little sister, I just told Xiaojie about our afternoon conversation, and this kid already has an idea."
Xu Ma looked at Da Jie aside:
"Tell my aunt, what are your plans?"
Dajie mustered up her courage: "Auntie, I don't want to go to technical school. I want to work. Can you help me talk to my uncle?"
Xu Ma smiled and shook her head.
"Don't bother your aunt about this. Your aunt also has a company in her name, a bread factory. I'll take you there to have a look tomorrow."
"Little sister, you..." Zhang Xiuyan was greatly shocked.
Xu Ma took off the latex gloves on her hands and explained: "I'm just in name, your uncle is really in charge, but don't worry, although I don't care about things, there is still no problem in arranging for Xiaojie to enter the factory. ”
"That's great." Zhang Xiuyan was very happy.
Xu Ma then asked:
"Xiaojie, what kind of job do you want to do?"
Dajie was a little confused. Although she had worked odd jobs for half a year, most of them were waiter-like jobs, and she didn't have a clear idea of the future.
Zhang Xiuyan answered helpfully: "Don't worry about her, just look at the arrangements. If it doesn't work, you can just become a general worker."
"General worker?" Xu Ma waved her hand, "Being a general worker doesn't have any future prospects, and you won't learn anything. Why not arrange for her to do odd jobs in the office first? Lingling is also there, so she can take care of Xiaojie."
"This is a good idea. With Lingling here, I can feel more at ease." Zhang Xiuyan quickly agreed.
Dajie asked doubtfully: "Auntie, doesn't Sister Lingling need to go to school?"
"She usually doesn't have time, so she only comes here to work part-time on weekends, winter and summer vacations."
"I didn't expect Sister Lingling to not only study well, but also work so hard!" Dajie's face was full of admiration.
Zhang Xiuyan took the opportunity to educate her: "Xiaojie, I need to learn more from your cousin in the future. Your sister Lingling is very capable. Do you remember?"
Dajie nodded solemnly.
…
Early the next morning, Xu Dong drove his mother, aunt and niece to the new factory on Dayang Road.
"Auntie, Xiaojie, in front is my mother's bakery."
"Little sister, does this big piece belong to your family? Isn't it too big?"
Zhang Xiuyan was completely shocked. She originally thought that the bread factory was just a small processing workshop at most, but she didn't expect it to be so large.
"It's not bad. This was originally a wholesale market for agricultural products, but later it was all assigned to a bakery. The entire factory area is almost 500 acres."
"Auntie, you are so amazing!"
Xu Ma smiled and shook her head: "Your aunt is not so capable. Your cousin and aunt founded the bakery, and they are the two who are the main contributors."
"Mom, it doesn't matter who built the factory. You are the general manager and the major shareholder now. Everyone in the factory must listen to you."
Xu Dong paused and looked at his niece:
"Xiaojie, your aunt is very powerful in the factory. Those workers will obey your aunt. You have to hug our boss Zhang's thigh tightly from now on!"
"What are you talking about? Drive your car properly."
Xu Ma laughed and cursed.
Fifteen minutes later, a group of people walked into the general manager's office. Ma Lingling saw her grandmother and others and hurriedly greeted them.
"Grandma, aunt, why are you here?"
Zhang Xiuyan took the initiative to explain: "Dajie wants to work, and your grandma plans to let her work in the bakery."
"Xiaojie, you don't go to school anymore?"
"Sister Lingling, I don't want to go to technical school. I want to work now." Da Jie replied.
"That's it. Then come to the general manager's office and let's be friends together."
Xu's mother smiled and said, "Grandma thinks so too. Xiaojie is still young and doesn't understand anything. As an elder sister, you should help her more often."
"Hehe, that's not just a matter of words. The winter vacation is coming soon, and there will be plenty of time then. Xiaojie, when will you come over to work?"
"Of course the sooner the better."
Dajie said impatiently.
"How can this be done?" Xu Ma waved her hand, "Xiaojie, you need to rest for a while and get used to the environment here in Yanjing. If you want to go to work, we will wait until after the New Year. Let's spend the New Year first."
"Auntie, I want to work now."
Zhang Xiuyan helped persuade: "Little sister, let Xiaojie start working from tomorrow. This child can't stay idle. I'm afraid she'll run around!"
"Mom, let's go through Xiaojie's employment procedures first. Should we go to work? We can discuss it later." Xu Dong suggested.
Xu Ma nodded: "That's fine."
"Grandma, Mr. Tan is out and won't be back until the afternoon." Ma Lingling interrupted.
"It's okay, let's go directly to the Human Resources Department."
Xu Ma waved her hand.
Immediately afterwards, the group of people diverted to the Human Resources Department.
Dajie's entry procedures were completed very quickly, and it was all completed in less than half an hour.
Dajie was very excited when she looked at the work permit in her hand. Her position was the same as Sister Lingling's, that of assistant to the general manager, and she was a regular employee from the beginning.
The first thing a new employee does after joining the company is to solve the accommodation problem. Xu Ma asked directly:
"Xiaojie, do you want to live at my aunt's house or in the dormitory in the factory?"
"Let's live in a dormitory. It's more convenient to commute to get off work."
Da Jie replied without thinking.
Ma Lingling said regretfully: "It's a pity that our dormitory is full, otherwise Xiaojie could sleep in our dormitory."
"Let's see if there are any vacancies in the dormitory next to yours. If so, let Xiaojie live next to you."
Xu Ma thought for a while and said.
"It doesn't matter, I can live anywhere." Da Jie quickly expressed her attitude.
"It's better to live closer together so that we can take care of each other." Xu Ma still insisted.
Ma Lingling volunteered: "Grandma, please wait for me for a while, I will go to the administrative department to ask now."
"Okay, Xiaojie, you can go too!"
Ma Lingling reached out and grabbed her cousin: "Xiaojie, let's go."
"Aunt, cousin, grandma, shall I go?"
"Go! Pick a better dormitory."
After Ma Lingling and Da Jie left, Xu Ma took her eldest sister to visit the factory. People kept coming to say hello along the way.
Looking at Xu's mother who was coping easily, Zhang Xiuyan looked confused: "Little sister, you have changed."
"Changed? Did you get fatter or thinner?"
Xu Ma made jokes out of habit.
"You have become more powerful. If your appearance hadn't changed, I wouldn't have dared to recognize you."
"Sister, I'm still the same person I was before. Dongzi's father is the one who has really changed. He couldn't beat a fart with three sticks before, but now he dares to speak in front of thousands of people."
"Auntie, in fact, both my father and mother were trained. My father's company only had one employee at the beginning, and then it gradually developed and expanded."
Xu Dong sighed sincerely.
Zhang Xiuyan asked curiously: "How many employees do you have in total now?"
