The whole family was looking at him.

Yan Jiekuang didn't know what was going on, so he looked back and said nothing.

After a long silence, Yan Bugui, the head of the family, spoke first: "Third brother, your mother told me that you found a job. Is that true?"

Upon hearing about this incident, Yan Jiekuang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the family so serious, he thought it was something serious.

In just a short moment, he even wondered if his identity as a time traveler had been exposed.

But on second thought, this is understandable.

After all, it is extremely difficult to find a job nowadays. Yan Jiekuang just graduated yesterday, and today he told the three aunts that he found a job. No one would believe it!

Just look at Yan Jiefang, he has graduated for many years, but he is still doing odd jobs on the streets.

Doesn't he want a stable job? He just doesn't have the opportunity.

"Yeah, it's not a big deal, do you really have to make such a fuss?"

Although Yan Jiekuang was also very excited in his heart, he said it so lightly, as if it was just a simple matter like eating and drinking water.

This made Yan Jiefang, who was sitting next to him, feel very unbalanced. He said sarcastically, "Simple? How about you find a job for your second brother as well?"

Looking at this sour girl, Yan Jiekuang did not refuse: "Okay, take out 500 yuan and I will help you arrange it right away."

Yan Jiefang was so angry at this that he couldn't say anything. He thought: If I had so much money, would I still need you?

"Okay, what are you doing? Third brother, what kind of job are you looking for?"

Listening to the two brothers' quarrel, Yan Bugui interrupted them directly and began to ask about Yan Jiekuang's work situation.

Seeing his father questioning him, he did not hide anything and took out a letter of certification from the factory: "Purchasing clerk of the Purchasing Department of the Third Steel Rolling Mill, I will go to register for employment tomorrow."

When these words came out, the whole family was shocked.

"What, a buyer! That's a good job."

"Is the third brother so capable? This position is not only lucrative, but also offers flexible hours."

Even Yan Jiedi came over, pulled Yan Jiekuang's sleeve and asked, "Third brother, can you bring back more delicious food in the future?"

Looking at this lovely sister, Yan Jiekuang touched her hair and said, "Yes, you will have a lot of delicious food in the future!"

Although he heard his son admit it with his own ears, Yan Bugui still couldn't believe that he had found a job.

It was not until he took the factory certificate and saw the words "Steel Rolling Mill Purchasing Department" clearly written on it that he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mother of my child, today is a good day. Go and buy half a pound of meat so that we can improve our situation."

After saying this, Yan Bugui thought for a while before saying, "Let's cut two taels. We can't finish too much."

Although the weight was reduced from half a catty to two taels, the brothers and sisters were still very happy, as this was a standard that was only offered during the Chinese New Year.

Even Yan Jiekuang looked at his father in surprise, feeling that these were not words he would say.

When the third aunt came back from buying meat, although there was not much, the family was particularly happy to eat it. Everyone else was happy because it was a rare opportunity for the family to eat meat.

As for Yan Jiekuang, it was because he had finally completed his first small goal since traveling through time. He could now safely survive the stormy period and wait for the reform and opening up.

After lunch, seeing that he had plenty of time, Yan Jiekuang came to Zhangjiazhuang again.

"Master, I have already made my arrangements. I will go to the steel mill tomorrow to complete the employment formalities. Please notify the villagers to prepare everything that needs to be sold. I will come to collect it tomorrow."

"The Third Steel Rolling Mill is a large factory with 10,000 employees. Our village can absorb all the products it produces. I will definitely give you a high price so that everyone can live a better life."

Hearing that Yan Jiekuang had joined the factory, Zhang Yuanshan was also happy for him: "Okay, everyone should have saved up some good things in the past six months. Jianshe, go and inform everyone."

Zhang Jianshe, who was always obedient, did not take any action after hearing this. Instead, he asked tentatively, "Uncle, a while ago, a wild boar came down from the mountain and destroyed a lot of crops. Since no one was watching at the time, it ran away."

"Do you think we can organize some militia and go up the mountain to hunt some animals? If we do, we can let Junior Brother bring some back!"

After Zhang Jianshe finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Yuanshan.

But after waiting for a long time without getting a response, Yan Jiekuang interrupted: "Brother, is this dangerous? We can't take risks in the mountains just for some prey."

"It's not dangerous. We all have guns. As long as we don't run into a large group of wild boars, we can take down even a blind bear. Don't worry!"

After confirming that the danger was not great, Yan Jiekuang said no more and looked at Zhang Yuanshan. He was the one who would make the final decision here.

After a while, Zhang Yuanshan finally spoke: "Okay, take a few skilled people with you to go to the mountains, but you must come back before dark."

"Okay, I'll go inform the villagers to prepare things first, and then organize people to go hunting."

Zhang Jianshe ran out excitedly. He had hardly shot a gun since he retired from the army. This time he could have a good time going to the mountains.

It would be even better if I could catch some prey, which would improve our family's life and allow me to take my mother to the city for medical treatment.

After Zhang Jianshe left, Yan Jiekuang chatted with his master for a while and asked him some questions about Bajiquan.

As the sky gradually darkened, I said goodbye.

······

The next morning, Yan Jiekuang walked out of the courtyard, looked at the children playing at the gate, breathed in the fresh air, and felt particularly happy.

Without any pause, he strode towards the steel mill.

Looking at the old-fashioned slogans on the street and the people coming and going around him, his heart was particularly calm.

After coming into this world for a few months, he finally had a job of his own. Although it was just a temporary job, it allowed him to take the first step in his plan.

When I arrived at the steel rolling mill, I was easily able to find the person in charge of processing my onboarding with the help of the security guard at the gate.

"Sister, can I ask, is this where I can apply for employment?"

Looking at the young man in front of her, Liu Meihua replied puzzledly: "Yes, what's the matter with you?"

"Hello, my name is Yan Jiekuang, and I'm here to apply for employment." As he said this, he handed over the supporting documents.

Looking at the materials handed over, which were indeed certificates issued by the factory and the street, Liu Meihua did not say much. She took out a piece of paper from the drawer, wrote and drew on it, and quickly completed the procedures.

"My name is Liu Meihua, you can call me Sister Liu. Wait for me for a moment, I will take you to the purchasing department."

"Okay, you go ahead and do your work. I'm not in a hurry." Yan Jiekuang stood aside and said calmly.

After waiting for almost half an hour, Liu Meihua finally finished her work: "Xiao Yan, let's go, I'll take you to meet your section chief."

As he spoke, he walked towards the door, and Yan Jiekuang hurriedly followed.
