Chapter 95 Sinicity
In Xu Qiang's view, this place is used to accommodate the family members and the elderly, the weak and the disabled in the factory, but for him, it can be called a "paradise on earth".

"Who is the leader of the department your parents work in?"

"Young man, did you also graduate from our factory? Why don't I seem to have seen you before..."

After Sun Yulin left, the middle-aged women immediately came forward and asked.

"I am a rotation worker in our workshop. My family is from the village..." said Xu Qiang.

"This is impossible..."

After hearing Xu Qiang's answer, everyone expressed disbelief.

"It was the factory director who arranged me here. This time I won the first prize in the military-to-civilian recruitment activity, so the factory director changed my job." Xu Qiang told the truth.

In fact, even if he didn't say it, these people would know it sooner or later, so he might as well tell them directly.

"Is that the event with a prize of 800 yuan?!"

Everyone's eyes widened when they heard Xu Qiang say this.

For these "marginal" people in the factory, they had no interest in any activities held in the factory. They just wanted to do their job and get their salary. However, the prize money for this military-to-civilian technology solicitation activity was too high. So when they learned that Xu Qiang had won the first prize, their faces were full of envy.

"You are amazing, young man." Team leader Zhang Decai gave Xu Qiang a thumbs up and said, "It seems that no one in our workshop has ever received such a large bonus before. I can tell at a glance that you are well-educated."

"It's okay..." Xu Qiang smiled when he heard that.

"Let me help you clean up the room, the tables and chairs and everything, I'll bring them to you in the afternoon!" Zhang Decai said.

"Your legs and feet are not in good condition, let me do it myself." Xu Qiang looked at Zhang Decai and said.

"It's okay, I just walked a little slower, it's no big deal." Zhang Decai patted Xu Qiang on the shoulder and said, "Actually, we don't have much to do here. The main thing is to keep an eye on the waste materials and carts. If anyone wants to use them, just ask them to register."

Although Zhang Decai is the supervisor of this scrap yard, in fact, he cannot afford to offend any of the people under him. After all, those who can work here are related to the leader, and he knows this very well.

Although Xu Qiang is not a relative of a leader, that was arranged by the factory director, so Zhang Decai is quite enthusiastic about Xu Qiang. He is experienced in dealing with people and has good judgment in front of leaders. This is also the main reason why he has been able to stay in this scrap yard for so many years.

Afterwards, Xu Qiang exchanged a few words with the middle-aged women and began to clean up the room.

There is a row of seven bungalows on this side of the waste storage, which were actually the earliest office location of the fertilizer plant. They are all decent mud-brick houses, and it is very nice to work here.

It only took Xu Qiang and several people from the scrap yard one morning to clean up the house. They wiped the floor and windows clean. Although there were still some old stains on the walls, it didn't matter to Xu Qiang. After all, it was much better than the house on the peat field.

At noon, Zhang Decai and others brought their own food. The boiler room was not far away, so they only needed to heat it up before eating.

Xu Qiang didn't bring any lunch, so Zhang Decai invited him to have dinner together and told him about the situation here.

"The fat woman is Li Yuqin, the wife of Wu Zhijun, deputy chief of the Security Department of our factory. The one with permed hair is Jia Shufen, the wife of Tan Baocheng, chief of the Labor and Payroll Department. And the tall and thin one is even more impressive, she is the sister of Tan Jian, chief of the Organization Department..." After hearing Zhang Decai's introduction, Xu Qiang was stunned. Although he knew that these people were relatives of the leaders, he did not expect that they were all direct relatives of the leaders of the main departments of the factory.

However, Xu Qiang just wanted to work quietly here. He probably rarely dealt with these people, so he was not worried about offending anyone.

I have to say that Sun Yulin really arranged a good place for him. It is probably difficult to find such a leisurely and comfortable job in the entire factory.

However, in order to stay here for a long time, Xu Qiang planned to treat Sun Yulin to a meal and give him some cigarettes, alcohol and other things.

In the past, Xu Qiang didn't like leaders like them, mainly because he himself was doing the dirtiest and most tiring job, and even if it could be worse, it wouldn't be that bad. But now it's different, the work here is easy and there is no need to work in shifts. If he wants to stay, he must have a good relationship with the leaders.

A person's thoughts will change with the environment he is in. When you reach the top of a mountain, you can shout the slogan of that mountain. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

In the afternoon, Xu Qiang and Zhang Decai went to the Materials Department to receive a set of wooden tables and chairs, and Xu Qiang's office was basically completed.

As the factory loudspeaker broadcast sounded, Xu Qiang got off work at five o'clock for the first time since he joined the factory. He got on his bicycle and drove quickly towards the village.

According to the previous agreement with Wang Yongsheng, Xu Qiang needs to deliver the goods tonight.

He hasn't been back to the village since he came back from the provincial capital. The last time he came back, he slept in the dormitory in the factory area.

Xu Qiang still owes Wang Yongsheng more than 2,000 yuan for goods, and he needs to settle the debt as soon as possible.

As soon as Xu Qiang arrived at the door of his house, he saw Da Jun and Er Hu squatting at the door.

"Uncle, you're finally back!"

Seeing Xu Qiang coming, the two of them immediately stood up to greet him.

"What's going on? What happened?"

Seeing that the two people looked unhappy, Xu Qiang suddenly felt something was wrong.

"This is what happened..." Da Jun pulled Xu Qiang to an empty corner and said to him, "Last night, Erhu and I went back to the village to replace the tiles on the house. Only Da Hei Niu was left at the peat field to work the night shift. As a result, someone smashed our tractor in the dark, and Da Hei Niu immediately went out and fought with them..." "What!?" Xu Qiang was shocked and asked quickly, "How is Da Hei Niu? Is he injured?"

The first thing Xu Qiang thought of was the situation of the big black cow, because although the tractor was expensive, it could be bought. If something happened to the big black cow, it would be a serious problem. If someone died, Xu Qiang would be in big trouble.

"Big Black Bull is fine, he just injured those guys..."

"That's good." Xu Qiang heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "Where are those people?"

For Xu Qiang, as long as the people are fine, everything else is easy. As for the tractor, he still needs to check the situation on site.

"They all ran away. It was pitch dark and Da Hei Niu was only wearing a pair of shorts, so we didn't chase him." Er Hu interrupted at this time, and then he continued angrily: "These bastards smashed my Da Huang's doghouse..."
