Siheyuan: 55 years, starting from a buyer

In the future, there will be multiple departments such as accounting, personnel, purchasing and sales, and detailed sales services: there will be special chefs to make salty and sour products, meat experts and full-time vegetable, fruit and seafood managers. "

“This is a great opportunity.

If you are interested in transferring, please let me know as soon as possible and I will consider it. "

The director works hard to maintain relationships. After all, these people were once core members of his staff, and perhaps new members, including management, will be added in the future.

A grocery store needs at least twenty-five or six people to run.

The director looked at the employees and said, "Now everyone, please weigh your options. If you have any considerations, you can talk to me later."

Mr. Chen was also thinking deeply that if he were to transfer to the purchasing department, Director Sun would probably approve it without much suspense.

Groceries, the cornerstone of life, are relatively easy to purchase, with most supplies arranged by the upper levels.

Despite the difficult tasks that may arise in the future, Chen still chose the procurement department:

1. He used the space advantage to easily obtain supplies.

2. This means that he does not need to stay in the store every day, and can spend more time learning medicine from his master.

Mr. Chen went to the director to make his decision clear.

"Director, I would like to be transferred to the purchasing department."

He said it without beating around the bush.

"Are you sure? Procurement is not as simple as it seems."

Director Sun reminded.

"I already have a clear idea. The previous few purchases went smoothly and I also made some friends."

Mr. Chen described his experience in detail: "I have some classmates and friends who can also help, so adding extra supplies is not a problem."

Under normal circumstances, there is not much pressure to purchase groceries.

As a basic guarantee of life, materials are in constant supply and the purchasing department has an easy job.

In addition, assisting the leader in socializing is also a duty of the purchasing agent. This is easy for Mr. Chen and he can bring it directly into the space.

Given the differences in the allocation of resources – priority and deferral, the competition among departments for excellent supply is also considered part of the department’s performance.

Finally, Director Sun nodded and promised: “Okay, once the paperwork is completed, I will be transferred to the purchasing department.

Sixty-five

That Li Caiban should be the manager of the supply department, you just need to follow him and do your work."

Director Sun pointed at Procurator Li who was sitting at the next table.

Chen Sheng had a decent relationship with this Procurator Li. It was always better to have an acquaintance as a superior than a stranger. At least the supervision wouldn't be too strict. Moreover, he estimated that the supply department would not be too large. He thought that if he added one more Ding Feng, the staff would be full, or maybe it would just be a two-person team.

A few days later, the store officially announced that it would be converted into a daily groceries store and publicly recruited new employees, along with the managers and instructors assigned by their superiors.

Under everyone's expectation, the new daily grain store began to gradually get on track.

The new director was appointed by the higher authorities, and Director Sun remained as director, but was changed from the main leader to deputy leader.

Such a change does not prevent Mr. Chen from being transferred to the Supply Department as he wishes.

At that time, job opportunities were becoming tight and the country was advocating the transfer of labor to rural areas.

For someone like Mr. Chen who has a stable job after graduating from junior high school, he is already a passenger on the last bus.

Future job opportunities will be more inclined towards vocational school and high school graduates, and young people of working age will be forced to move to rural areas, but that is a prospect more than ten years later.

The influence of this daily groceries store is quite large, radiating to several surrounding blocks.

Therefore, once the recruitment news is released, the surrounding environment immediately becomes noisy and bustling.

Even Mr. Chen, who was at home, had neighbors coming to ask about the recruitment details, and the residents in the compound were the center of attention.

At that time, the basic threshold for entry-level employees in formal companies was a starting salary of three or four hundred yuan, not to mention the popular sales positions, and there was a serious imbalance between supply and demand.

It is extremely rare for a small clerk like Mr. Chen to get a job.

It remains unknown whether Director Li can allocate the quota as he wishes.

Compared with large factories that recruit massive amounts of manpower, the staffing of this daily grain store seems insignificant. Mr. Chen was lucky to seize this unexpected opportunity for transfer.

No one expected that it would transform into a daily grain store.

When Mr. Chen returned home, he was asked about the recruitment status. He decided to stay outside temporarily and return to the compound until the dust settled, so as to avoid being disturbed by other people's constant questioning.

When facing the people in the compound, Chen Sheng would rather avoid them so as not to make unnecessary enemies.

For him, enjoying the company of his family and cooked food at home is a rare and relaxing and enjoyable time in itself.

As he expected, the staffing was full not long after the recruitment announcement.

The store is currently in the process of being redesigned and the new employees have not yet officially started their work. The only original staff members left are doing packaging and moving.

Next, the business department contacted the decoration team.

Mr. Chen and his colleagues immediately received a notice: the five-day renovation period meant the arrival of a five-day holiday.

After the renovation was completed, all employees returned to their posts and resumed work.

While tidying up the office, Mr. Chen accidentally came across the new business design blueprint of the daily grain store. He originally thought that it was just a general adjustment of the store, but he did not expect that it would include fruit and vegetable retail and meat retail.

In the next few days, Mr. Chen and Procurator Li were very busy.

Their superiors have issued tasks for the distribution of materials, and they need to contact the relevant departments to prepare for the transportation work.

For four or five days, they traveled around the city with all kinds of documents, certificates and letters, informing suppliers one by one, such as slaughterhouses, sauce factories, and soybean oil factories, that supply could return to normal.

Since the new address is still vacant, suppliers will deliver goods automatically, and there is no need for Mr. Chen or Procurement Manager Li to travel back and forth in person.

When they returned to the shop to check, all kinds of goods were neatly arranged and the shop was spotless, looking brand new and ready to open.

Most of the newly opened stores were run by young girls who were dressed neatly and elegantly, and the grocery stores officially started business.

"The work is finally done, we can relax a little," Purchasing Manager Li said to Mr. Chen as he sat comfortably in the office and stretched his muscles.

"Indeed, I've been riding a bike so much these days that my muscles have become thinner." Mr. Chen smiled as he recounted his sad experience.

The topic suddenly shifted to official documents: "The document says that we need to buy a lot of food every day, and we need to supply at least one pig every day." Purchaser Li said.

Chen Sheng started joking when he heard this: "Then I suggest you get closer to the butcher. Maybe they will add more fat to your meat next time you buy it."

Li Caicai smiled softly: "Hey, I'm very familiar with the butcher, so it's just a small matter, no need to say more."

At that time, if customers wanted to buy meat, most of them would let the butcher cut it and decide, and there was not much room for choice.

Being picky only leads to rejection because there is always someone else waiting impatiently.

During festivals, the place is so crowded that even the police have to step in to maintain order, and troublemakers will be dealt with immediately.

Mr. Chen thought that all the employees in the store had some extraordinary backgrounds, and he originally felt that it was not a simple matter of the leader's arrangement that they could do the job. However, he did not expect that even Purchasing Manager Li had a lot of resources, and everything seemed to be going on quietly.

The new store was well stocked, and not only did the staff know about it, but the talk among the neighbors spread as well.

Therefore, in the following days, people could often be seen queuing in front of the store.

Luckily, it's not the holidays.

If it is a festival, people who want to buy meat may have to queue up all night; for example, a few days before the Spring Festival, they have to wait until the early morning.

Mr. Chen was busy all day, but there was actually not much to do, as he had to go back to work and learn his skills at night.

When he returned home at night, he found Yan Fugui still standing at the door waiting for him.

Usually, Mr. Chen would knock on the door first, and Yan Fugui would answer.

But today the situation has reversed, Yan Fugui is waiting outside, and Mr. Chen understands that he must have something to ask.

Mr. Chen knew that everyone in the courtyard would always try to get an advantage, so he set out early in the morning, arrived at the store early to learn, and returned to his master at night. He almost never stayed at home for several months, so it was rare to see familiar faces in the courtyard.

Seeing Chen Sheng coming back, Yan Fugui quickly came forward and said, "Hey, Xiao Chen, you're finally home."

Mr. Chen said succinctly: "Uncle Yan, if you have something to say, just tell me. I'm a little tired and want to rest early."

Hearing this, Yan Fugui was a little embarrassed. After all, he always positioned himself as a cultured person.

After hesitating for a while, he saw that Chen was about to leave, so he grabbed him and said, "Xiao Chen, I have something I want to talk to you about - I want to buy some meat from your new grocery store."

After a long delay, Yan Fugui finally revealed his true intentions, just as Chen Sheng predicted - he came here just to take advantage of a small advantage.

"Uncle Yan, if you want to buy meat, just come to the store tomorrow. There's no point looking for me. I don't sell meat." Mr. Chen was reluctant to get involved in these trivial matters.

"Hasn't the store been turned into a grocery store? I would like to ask you to ask the cutting master if he could cut a little more fat for me?" Yan Fugui said as if it was a matter of course.

"Uncle Yan, you're done.

I don't know that master at all, why should he listen to you?"

Chen Sheng's vitality is somewhat declining.

"Well...I just think we are all in the same team, right?" Yan Fugui said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Uncle Yan, don't think too much. It's not a holiday and there's nothing special going on right now. No one will go out of their way to help you with anything extra.

"

Mr. Chen did not refuse completely. He could not be indifferent to the request from his neighbors; but if it was a special holiday, he would still be willing to help.

But he also made it clear that he was not an exceptional factor in the festival.

After all, social networks are also indispensable at this time, and Mr. Chen does not want to be known as ruthless and ungrateful.

But for someone like Yan Fugui who only cares about personal gain, Chen Sheng has made up his mind.

“Okay, that’s it.

"Yan Fugui understood what Chen Sheng meant, and even though he was a little unwilling, he no longer insisted.

“You should rest early.

"After saying this, Mr. Chen walked straight to his room.

---

Recently, Mr. Chen has completely cut off all business dealings with that person.

Although there were mountains of rice in the warehouse, he resolutely stopped the deal because he found that Yang Qiong had secretly sent his men to follow him twice, revealing his intention to investigate him.

Although he was able to cleverly evade surveillance, Chen felt that it was not necessary to continue with the status quo.

To him, Yang Qiong is even less trustworthy than Ma San before.

Because even though he gave away items several times, Ma San did not reveal any of his actions.

Another point is that after half a year of accumulating wealth, he has become financially well-off and doesn't know where to spend the money.

Even though Mr. Chen still grows corn and wheat in his world, it is mostly for the purpose of storing food needed for future breeding. Due to space limitations, he cannot develop a comprehensive food chain, and most of the time he still has to supply it himself.

In addition to the safety risks of this relationship, more importantly, Mr. Chen did not want to worry too much.

After learning from my master every day, I go home exhausted and don’t have the energy to do extra work late at night.

Mr. Chen has realized that he came here to enjoy life, and learned medicine just to improve the quality of life.

When he decided to terminate the cooperation with Yang Qiong, he simply stopped delivering the goods on time without notifying the other party.

He was not interested in making up excuses to deal with Yang Qiong. He chose to wait until the necessary moment in the future to activate its value.

Five or six years have passed in the blink of an eye. In one year, he devoted himself to medical studies, learned from a master, passed the professional examination, and participated in rural purchasing business. The store has transformed into selling non-staple food and made a profit from it.

He also renovated his residence.

In the fall, Wang Shun used his connections to arrange a special assessment for him in the health department. Although there were many institutions that needed to obtain the qualification, the difficulty should not be underestimated, and Chen still successfully obtained the professional qualification certificate.

Although he theoretically had all the qualifications to open a clinic, Chen felt that he still had many shortcomings, especially a lack of rich clinical practice experience.

Because Chinese medicine emphasizes experience and practice, in the past few months, Mr. Chen has frequently gone to Jishidiang to help out and accumulate practical experience.

The manager also acquiesced to this reluctantly.

After all, Mr. Chen often sent fish and other meats. Food was scarce in that era, especially meat, which was almost equivalent to bringing money directly, and could even solve the problem better than money.

By the end of the year, as the grocery store business was extremely busy, Mr. Chen didn't even have time to go to Jishiditang to help.

Supplies were in short supply in the capital, and queues of people buying meat formed outside the door before dawn. Even vegetables had to arrive early in advance.

Considering the safety of the store, the leaders decided that male employees would take turns on night duty, and Mr. Chen was among those on duty.

During the year-end stocking period, Deputy Director Wu found Mr. Chen.

As soon as he saw Deputy Director Wu coming, Mr. Chen could guess what he wanted.

"Xiao Chen, I have something I want to ask you for help with."

Deputy Director Wu said.

"Deputy Director Wu, you are too polite. Please go ahead."

Mr. Chen agreed.

Chapter 68 "Look, everyone has started preparing for the New Year. I would like to ask for a favor. When everyone is lining up to buy meat, please say hello to the chef so that everyone can have a rich Spring Festival."

Director Wu said with a little embarrassment.

"No problem. Now that you've asked, I can definitely get it done."

Chen Chengsheng agreed confidently.

"Great, they're starting to line up tonight."

Director Wu said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll come to work early tomorrow and have a chat with the butcher."

Mr. Chen promised.

"Thank you so much."

Director Wu looked grateful.

"It's just a small matter. Please take your time."

Mr. Chen escorted Director Wu out of the room and politely saw him to the door.

After seeing Director Wu off, Mr. Chen fell into deep thought, unsure whether this request was his personal opinion or a collective decision of the entire hospital.

No matter what, he had decided to help: "Brother Li, people from our yard are going to line up to buy meat tonight. Can you find a chance to talk to Old Li at the butcher's stall and ask him to give them more fat meat?"

As soon as he arrived at the unit, he told Purchasing Manager Li about the request.

“Don’t worry, we haven’t caused him much trouble, and the problem can be solved by inviting you to buy him a drink after the New Year.

Those salesmen often go to him.”

Purchasing Manager Li said readily.

"Okay, I'll rely on you then. I'm not that familiar with Lao Li."

In fact, Mr. Chen was too lazy to do it and was worried that his acquaintances in the courtyard would call him out, which would make it difficult for the people in the meat-buying queue to hear him.
