"Have you bought everything?"

The doorman, Uncle Qin, saw Li Xiangnan getting off the car, carrying a lot of bags. He hurried over to take two bags and put a basin under his armpit.

"Uncle Qin, you can't do that. I still need your help. I have plenty of strength!" Li Xiangnan saw this and hurried to pull it. He didn't want to be framed with the problem of ordering people around as soon as he arrived at the factory doctor.

"What's the big deal! I'm still young! I'll be only 60 years old next spring. Who are you looking down on?" Uncle Qin smiled happily. He threw the bag behind him and led him forward with big strides.

"Okay, thank you!" Unable to persuade him, Li Xiangnan had to let him go.

After unlocking the door and putting the things away, Li Xiangnan poured the old man a cup of water and quickly handed him a cigarette.

"Okay, I won't drink the water! Take a rest, here's a palm-leaf fan for you! There's no fan in this room, it's too hot! Old Xing doesn't even know to find a shady place for you, ah!"

As he spoke, Uncle Qin threw the palm-leaf fan on the table, turned around and walked out.

Li Xiangnan was slightly moved. He grabbed the palm-leaf fan and walked out. Uncle Qin had already walked out more than ten meters, and Director Xing was already walking nearby with his hands behind his back.

"What did Old Qin say about me again?" Xing Chunlai glared at Uncle Qin's back with a forced smile.

With a grin, Li Xiangnan fanned himself and felt very cool. He said with a smile: "The old man said that you picked a good place, down to earth, warm in winter and cool in summer!"

"Nonsense! You must be teasing me for not finding a cool place for you! He doesn't even think about the fact that winter will come after summer. If you really want to find a shady place, you will freeze to death in winter!"

Xing Chunlai cursed a few times and said helplessly: "This old man just cares about the next generation! Ha!"

Li Xiangnan smiled but said nothing. He went into the room, found a new enamel pot from his bag on the floor, rinsed it with hot water, and then took out some broken tea leaves and rinsed them, then placed them on the long table.

"Director Xing, I can only buy this high-grade broken tea. I can't afford the high-grade foam tea. Please make do with it!"

"Hey, I'm drinking this in the office too!" Xing Chunlai smiled and sat down. He looked around and saw that the socks on Li Xiangnan's feet had a lot of torn lines. He stood up and left again, "Please clean up first. I'll be back soon!"

“???” Li Xiangnan was squatting on the ground and hadn’t reacted yet when Xing Chunlai walked out. He scratched his head, looking puzzled, but didn’t take it to heart.

Open all the bags, big and small, and start taking things out and putting them away one by one.

There were two enamel mugs, a box of fine tea leaves, a large and a small washbasin, a thermos, a cool mat, a spare bath towel, two undershirts, a simple small clock, and some miscellaneous odds and ends.

The total cost was six dollars and eighty cents.

It’s impossible to say that I don’t feel sad, but sooner or later I have to buy the necessities of life.

He is not going back to Hongshan County in a few days. He still needs to prepare for a long-term battle here.

"I really found it!" At this time, Xing Chunlai came into the room, holding a stack of nylon socks in his hand, and said excitedly:

"Last time I went to a state-owned factory trade show, the factory director gave me and Lao Liu six pairs of shoes each. I took three pairs home and gave them to my family. You can wear these three pairs!"

Nylon socks!

This is the latest trend! Easy to wash and dry, durable, and very breathable.

A pair of socks now costs one dollar and fifty cents, which is more expensive than a pound of pork!

Li Xiangnan was immediately flattered and waved his hand, saying, "Director Xing, this is not acceptable. It would be a waste to wear such a precious thing on my feet! It's not like I don't have socks to wear!"

"Forget it! Take it. Your socks are no longer tight. How many days can you wear them? I don't like wearing these. My feet stink. My family members always complain about me!"

Seeing that he didn't take it, Xing Chunlai threw it directly on the bed. Seeing what he was going to say, he quickly changed the subject and said, "I just gave those two guys from the Administration Department a lesson. They are much more honest now!"

Li Xiangnan had just breathed a sigh of relief, but this brought it up again. He smiled and said, "You know everything?"

"I didn't come to the factory doctor's office very often before. I had heard a little about Ma Ying and Cui Xingjian, but I didn't care much about it unless they went too far! But today, when it happened to you, how could I not be angry! I almost sent them both to clean toilets in the branch factory!"

Xing Chun was still very angry when talking about this.

"Oh, that's not possible! Uncle Xing, if I'm punished, they will hate me to death!" Li Xiangnan waved his hands quickly.

"Huh? Xiao Li, why are you still speaking in their favor?" Xing Chunlai was very surprised.

Li Xiangnan took out a cigarette and handed it to Xing Chunlai, then smoked one himself, just in time for a break. "Actually, it's not their fault! People have their own ways and customs, and they exist everywhere! I look young, but I've been through a lot!

If you want to win the respect of others, you must rely on your own strength and real ability, not those illusory external factors! "

Xing Chunlai's eyes were shaken, and he was quite surprised. He said in astonishment: "I didn't expect that you, at such a young age, could say such profound words. I am a little ashamed!"

He smoked a cigarette and showed a lot of respect to Li Xiangnan.

"If it were me, I would have lost my temper with them right then and there. I, Xing Dasheng, have a terrible temper! I am a man of blood and I cannot tolerate any grain of sand in my eyes!

But Xiangnan, you are right. To win the respect of others, you must rely on your real ability! Not my temper and voice that are better than others. You have taught me a lesson!"

"To be honest, I thought at first that you would bring me or the Lin family up when you reported something. Actually, it's nothing. I didn't expect you to not say a word about it. You're so low-key. I really admire you! Xiao Li, you taught me a lesson!"

"Director Xing, you're too kind!" Li Xiangnan smiled.

"There are many different kinds of people. You are so young, but you have such a broad mind. It's really rare!"

Xing Chunlai recalled the appearance of Ma Ying and Cui Xingjian in the office just now, and said:

"Those two guys are quite grateful to you. They just promised me. I can see that they are not only intimidated by my power, but also by your personal charm, Li Xiangnan! Your ability to control people is also superb!"

"Director Xing, I really haven't thought about it so much!" Li Xiangnan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Xing Chunlai smiled, stood up, patted his butt, and stamped out his cigarette.

"Okay, you go to work this afternoon, and your job as the factory doctor will officially begin. Xiao Li, do your best. I really think highly of you!"

Patting Li Xiangnan on the shoulder, he left with a smile, looking in a very good mood.

Holding the palm-leaf fan and glancing at the nylon socks on the bed, Li Xiangnan was full of anticipation for his future life as a factory doctor.

At least so far, the interactions between Lin Weimin, Xing Chunlai, and the doorman, Uncle Qin, have made him truly feel the warmth of this era.

Of course there were some minor discords, but they were all resolved by him subtly.

He had a feeling that the afternoon trip to the emergency department might not go smoothly.

After all, everything is difficult at the beginning.

But there is a hidden dragon in the deep, and he has the confidence to take off in this small pond.

After cleaning up for a while, he looked at the time and saw that it was almost time for dinner, so he closed the door and walked towards the cafeteria.
