Yang Jun caught the meaning of Sha Zhu's words and glared at him.

“Don’t tell me you’re not going to buy her a bike, if that’s the case, just give me back your bike ticket.

"

"No, no, no, Junzi, listen to me first. I'm actually about to start a new chapter in my life..."

“So soon? How many days are left?”

Yang Jun was indeed shocked to learn that Yang Shazhu was about to get married.

He originally thought that even if their relationship improved, it would take some time before they could enter into married life.

Unexpectedly, they were going to get married in just a few days. Even flash marriages in modern times would not be so fast.

Facing Yang Shazhu, who was a little embarrassed and dull but still simple and honest, Yang Jun felt mixed emotions.

He knew that since he traveled through time, everything in the yard had changed from what he remembered, and Sha Zhu's fate had subtly changed because of him.

The Sha Zhu at this moment is no longer the same Sha Zhu as before.

Ever since being influenced by Yang Jun, he never delivered food to the Jia family again, and never lent money to Qin Huairu easily again.

The only thing that has not changed is his excessive attention and flattery towards women. When he meets the right girl, he will not hesitate to expose his "dog-sucking" nature.

So He Yushui's plan to buy a bicycle failed again.

At this time, Yang Jun understood why Ran Qiuye hurriedly agreed to this marriage. She was attracted by Sha Zhu's social background, which was similar to the reason why Lou Xiao'e married Xu Damao.

Noticing Yang Jun's inner hesitation, Sha Zhu stepped forward and gently pushed him, whispering:

"Junzi, can you do me a favor? See if you can..."

Before Sha Zhu finished speaking, he stared at Yang Jun with expectant eyes.

He knew what Sha Zhu was thinking, which was to ask him to help arrange some matters, probably for Ran Qiuye.

In fact, it was not difficult for Yang Jun to help Ran Qiuye. He was full of sympathy for her situation.

After all, she was a kind-hearted woman and he didn't mind providing assistance.

Helping Ran Qiuye requires more than simply providing shelter.

As the saying goes, help should be provided to the end and not give up halfway.

The key is to address the root cause of the problem.

"Didn't you guys agree to get married on the 28th? Let Qiuye quit her job after you get married.

"

What he was thinking was that once Qiu Ye resigned, her household registration would be placed under the management of the street office, and then Aunt Wang could just take care of her secretly.

"Resign?"

Sha Zhu thought for a while and nodded in agreement: "I can earn thirty-seven and a half yuan a month, so it should be no problem to support her, right?"

Looking at such a naive and ignorant guy, Yang Jun was speechless.

His wisdom in matters of woman will never be above average.

"It would be best if she quit her job before getting married."

"Okay, I know."

Seeing Yang Jun's serious expression, Sha Zhu immediately nodded in agreement.

After solving Sha Zhu's problem, Yang Jun sat on the sofa thinking about future plans.

Advance planning becomes a must.

Only a solid foundation can ensure your position.

Being in a high position means a more stable foothold that is difficult to shake.

So he thought of winning over the people around him to improve their status.

Thinking carefully about the people around him, Yang Jun regretfully discovered that there was no truly capable candidate.

We have no choice but to choose from the existing resources.

"Brother Zhuzi, do you want to be promoted?"

"What? I'm an official?"

Sha Zhu yelled in surprise, then laughed at himself: "Haha, Junzi, stop joking, I'm okay at cooking, but I'm really not good at being an official.

"

When Sha Zhu shook his head and said this, Yang Jun was filled with anger but could not hold it back.

"Think about what Teacher Ran needs. If you become an official, wouldn't that be a good opportunity for you to take care of her?"

Sha Zhu tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Well, Junzi, think about it, if I really get promoted, I can earn at least several dozen more dollars every month.

Qiuye will have a good meal by then."

In response, Yang Jun was speechless and could only roll his eyes at him, thinking that he was a rotten wood that could not be carved.

"Being an official doesn't allow you to simply consider Qiu Ye like this." Yang Jun kicked him angrily, "Go write a report, and leave the rest to me.

"

Sha Zhu scratched his head and explained a little embarrassedly: "But I'm not very good at writing."

Yang Jun kicked him out of the door.

"Ask your sister Qiuye to teach you..."

Yang Jun plans to first improve Sha Zhu's status and then bring Yang Mei along, so that he can train more of his own people, and when the critical moment comes, he will be more confident in the arm wrestling competition.

After Sha Zhu left, Yang Jun went to the next office and found Lao Wei.

The two men set up the chessboard, put the brewed tea aside, and then began a fierce battle.

In his spare time, Yang Jun often plays chess with Lao Wei, and his skills have improved a lot. In the past, he would lose a game in just a few moves, but now he can hold on for more than twenty moves.

Lao Wei didn't mind Yang Jun's poor skills and was happy to play with him. He didn't care much about winning or losing. He felt satisfied as long as he could play chess happily with Yang Jun.

"Arch the pawn."

Regardless of whether it is red or white, Yang Jun always makes the first move at the beginning of the game. This tactic of pushing the pawn is a good one he learned from Lao Wei. It can be used for both advance and retreat, and for both offense and defense.

Old Wei smiled, did not comment on Yang Jun's move, and let his soldiers push out of the defense line.

Yang's army followed with horses and cannons, and Lao Wei also responded by sending out pieces.

The two sides played back and forth, and the pace of the game gradually slowed down. Sometimes Yang Jun would consider for a long time before making a move, while Lao Wei was very comfortable with it, and a random move he made would make Yang Jun think deeply for a long time.

Old Wei patiently played chess with Yang Jun, and understood the section chief's purpose in usually using the chess game to speak.

Sure enough, as he expected, Yang Jun spoke.

"Old Wei, let Ling Qianjin start working after the New Year."

Old Wei was stunned after hearing this and didn't fully understand what was going on.

He had handled Yang Jun's questions in the past with ease, but this sudden suggestion surprised him.

Old Wei's eyes darted around, quickly analyzing the meaning behind Yang Jun's words.

Do you want to urge him to retire from his post as soon as possible?

Or maybe Yang Jun already has a candidate for deputy section chief and wants him to resign voluntarily?

"Okay, Director, I will apply for early retirement tomorrow."

It didn't take much time to weigh the pros and cons before Lao Wei realized his own weakness. It was better to quit early than late so as not to hinder the future of others.

"I have always had health problems and have long planned to abdicate. It would be better if my daughter could take over as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Yang Jun was shocked, then suddenly realized.

It seems that Lao Wei misunderstood what he meant.

"I asked the Personnel Department for two places a few days ago. I thought your Ni'er would come here sooner or later, so I wanted her to understand the work situation earlier."

"When your Ni'er comes, she will be treated as a clerk directly. As for your job after retirement, you decide who will take over."

A while ago, Yang Jun applied for a position in the Personnel Department on the grounds that the workload was heavy and there was a shortage of staff.

The original intention was to give it to Liu Guangqi, but Da Cai gave the places to the two of them.

When Lao Wei heard the news, he excitedly grabbed Yang Jun's arm.

"Director, thank you so much for your care!"

Lao Wei kept expressing his gratitude and even bowed deeply.

This is equivalent to Yang Jun giving him a definite career security.

Not only did his daughter get a job, but he would also be able to find a successor to his position after he abdicates.

Even if no one takes over his position, he can still sell it.

A regular job is worth at least 500 yuan, and competition is fierce.

"Bring your daughter here to report on the first day of work after the New Year."

Looking at Old Wei who was full of excitement, Yang Jun said.

"Well, Director, thank you very much."

Encouraged by this, Lao Wei gave Yang Jun two consecutive games.

After winning two games in a row, Yang Jun lost interest in playing chess and kicked Lao Wei out of the game.

=3D=3DWhen Yang Jun decided to help Sha Zhu to get to the top, he went up to the third floor with a box of top-grade Biluochun tea.

After learning that Yang Jun wanted to promote Sha Zhu to be the deputy canteen director, Li Huaide frowned in deep thought.

Ever since Yang Jun became the deputy chief of logistics, the two have been in a secret competition, but they have not yet broken up openly to the point of confrontation.

At first, Li Huaide and Yang Jun co-managed the logistics work, and each had a clear division of responsibilities. Yang Jun focused on daily management affairs, while major logistical matters were mainly handled by Li Huaide.

A promotion like Sha Zhu's must be approved by Li Huaide.

Yang Jun originally planned to discuss it directly with the factory director, but he did not want to openly confront Li Huaide in the short term, so he chose to negotiate with Li Huaide.

"Logically, I should give Sha Zhu a higher position, but... this guy is usually unruly, and I have doubts about whether I can entrust him with the position of deputy director.

"

"Brother, you probably don't know yet, Sha Zhu is going to marry a new bride, she is a teacher, they study together every day, he is no longer the same as before.

I believe there will be no problem in being the deputy director, even if it is not a top position.

"

"only……"

Li Huaide was hesitant in his heart whether to promote Sha Zhu. He did have personal considerations.

The position of deputy director did not make much difference to him, however, considering that Sha Zhu would take over the affairs of the private rooms if he entered management, he would worry that no one would supervise his talent.

Looking back at Sha Zhu's cooking skills, Li Huaide was reluctant to let him leave.

Seeing through Li Huaide's mind, Yang Jun immediately made a promise:

"Brother, you can relax. Sha Zhu will remain as the canteen monitor after becoming the deputy director, and he will still be in charge of the private rooms. If he is lazy, don't bother with you. I will teach him a lesson.

"

After hearing this assurance, Li Huaide thought that he didn't need to worry too much about this matter.

Besides, the private room will continue to be managed by Sha Zhu, so I won’t say more.

Everyone's evaluation of Sha Zhu's lack of discipline is well known, and Li Huaide is eager to put his own people in all key positions.

Although he was unsure whether he could control Sha Zhu, he had to agree to Yang Jun's proposal.

It was the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the holiday was just around the corner. The factory had entered a quasi-holiday mode, with only a few production workshops still insisting on production. Most employees had nothing to do and took early leave in groups to prepare holiday supplies.

Recently, the factory decided to pay wages in advance and open up the opportunity to receive year-end benefits.

This was Yang Jun's first salary packet at the steel rolling mill, but he had no particular expectations for the amount, so he gave the seal to Yang Mei to collect other welfare items.

In addition to the pork and grain that have already been distributed, people are now scrambling for coupons for melon seeds, peanuts, cooking oil, etc.

Looking at the exchange vouchers in their hands, everyone went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative to queue up.

As the end of the year approaches, the supply and marketing cooperative is at its busiest time of the year. The moment it opens, long queues form at the door.

In just half a day, all the supplies of food and snacks were sold out, and the distributors were mobilizing inventory resources like a possessed person.

Yang Jun did not grab supplies like others. The non-staple food accumulated in the space had piled up like a mountain. Nearly 300,000 kilograms of food that was originally purchased at the same time as grain and pork had already been consumed.

If all of it were taken out, it would be enough for the entire city to eat.

He drove to the post office and took out a bulging woven bag from the car, which was full of packages he wanted to send.

The staff in the post office were extremely busy because it was the end of the year and everyone was sending money and food coupons back to their hometowns.

Therefore, Yang Jun waited in line for half an hour before it was his turn.

"Comrade, there are fifty-two packages in all. The postal charges total $4.16."

The person in charge of counting the packages was a girl about ten years old. She might have just started working and was a little shy around strangers.

The fuel coupons are worth 2 cents, 5 cents, and 8 cents. To be on the safe side, Yang Jun chose the 8-cent one.

"Thank you!"

He took out some banknotes from his pocket and handed them to the girl, then thanked her and left the post office.

In each package, he put 20 yuan, 30 kilograms of national food coupons and various other bills. The stack of banknotes and bills was so thick that he had to send them by parcel.

He has been doing this for years, which is why he is running low on savings.

At the end of the year, he would send some tokens of his love to the families of his deceased comrades.

It’s just that compared with previous years, the number this time is larger.

The fifty-two packages symbolize the fifty-two comrades he lost and the fifty-two families behind them.

These are brothers who share life and death. Although they are not related by blood, their relationship is better than that of real brothers.

His survival was entirely due to the brothers who tried their best to rescue him.

Yang Jun tries his best to help their families within the possible scope and make their lives worry-free.
