Chapter Twenty-Six: Celebration
βCongratulationsοΌβ
What, what is this? Streamer latte art. Ah, it turned out that these guys were celebrating my ascension at the water bar.
After Xiao An, who hadn't been to the water bar for many days, came here, she saw that everyone gave her a surprise.
"Everyone's bothered!" Xiao An approached everyone with a smile.
"How about it, after becoming the factory director, are you much busier than before, even our little water bar, I have to invite you to come!" Maed joked with her.
"Oh, don't be sarcastic about me, I'm everywhere now, there's no place not to be busy. Maybe it's because my ability is really limited, alas, I really don't want to be this factory director anymore. But you're still here to celebrate me, as if you were an official. If that's the case, I'd rather you do these things for me, I'd like to find a place to take a good vacation and travel somewhere. β
"Oh, that's not going to work! It is said that the new official has three fires in office, but you have only been in office for a few days? I just want to go on vacation, what do you make your employees think? You hold on for a while, wait until the work in your factory is on track, and you have indeed made achievements, and then take your employees to go outside and have a good time! β
"Sounds good, but when are we going to make up for all the shortfalls? You don't know, the vampires used to know about deducting workers' wages, and never thought about how to lead the factory in a good direction. Now as soon as I take over, I know why the old director said that he is not willing to take over this mess, and whoever dares to sit in this position will have to pay off the debts of those bastards first! I'll tell you straight, I've been in office for so long, and I only pay for the employees in the factory, and I haven't seen anything myself! I didn't dare to tell my mother, so I just said that everything in the factory now prepares me well, and I don't need to worry about anything. β
"Eh, then do you and your aunt still live in the original staff dormitory?" An Xiaoyang, who has not been seen for a long time, also came to join in the fun today.
"Moved. Originally, I didn't want to move, but if I didn't, my former colleagues would definitely pester my mother to ask about this and that all day long, and always want to get something out of my mother's mouth. I'm afraid that my mother will be annoyed, so I changed the place again, but the specifications are still the same, there is no special treatment, but it is more quiet. β
"Huh? That's not good, you, as the head of a factory, can't even get a house? That won't make people laugh to death! "Everybody was a little unconvinced.
"What did I tell you just now, you didn't even have the ears to listen? I don't say it directly, now the factory has to pay off the debt first if there is a little profit, as a factory leader, I don't give my employees a good example of diligence and thrift, do I still have some debt to buy a house? I just live in that house, and I can't live in it well! How can I be worthy of the women who died in the fire before! β
"Ah, okay, let's not talk about that. In any case, our Comrade An An has been promoted to the director of the garment factory, even if he doesn't see the benefits now, at least the name is there, as long as he has a name, plus God rewards hard work, I think the banknotes and the like must be just around the corner! Comrade Xiao An, don't be too discouraged, with our friends as your backing, you will continue to move forward bravely! We will always have your back! Maide encouraged her.
"That's right, so many people in the factory chose you to be the factory director, which means that you still have the ability!" Said an employee at the water bar.
"What kind of ability do I call it, it's a blind cat touching a dead mouse, luck! You don't know, this factory director used to be out of tune, and there were actually thirty or forty people under him who were corrupted by him! So this investigation and punishment has left so many people. In such a short period of time, with the current vitality of this factory, who wants to come? So give this stick to the old director, the old director is not a fool! How many more can you earn? The people frowned, and they thought about it, so they left me here. I haven't found a suitable successor now, alas, so I can only reluctantly suffer here. β
"It sounds like it's a bit cheap, but if you listen closely, it seems that every sentence is from the bottom of your heart!" An Xiaoyang blinked a few times.
"Nonsense, when did I stink? However, I assure you that there are indeed difficulties in the factory now, and when the vitality recovers, we have all made money, and I will definitely repay everyone well! β
"Okay, then we'll just wait for that day to come!"
"yes, I'm looking forward to that day sooner rather than later. But I don't know what's going on lately, I'm always lazy, I still want to sleep after waking up for a while, and I don't like to wake up after sleeping for a long time, and my head is still groggy. You say, how can I bring a factory like this? I've been dying lately. I thought I might not be doing this, otherwise if I really liked it, I wouldn't feel tired, maybe I still didn't really put into it, all day long just in addition to worrying is tired, I'm really a little weak-hearted, but for a while and a half can't recruit a suitable candidate, this broken factory this little bit of family background, who wants to come? β
"Ouch, look at the one that worries our sister An!" Another employee in the water bar sighed.
"Really, the factory is now in debt, and I am worried every day. At first, I also thought that I was also a factory director, and I had a certain amount of power, and I could finally show my ambitions for many years, but who would have thought that this would be the case, I knew that this official was really not so easy to be. Why do you think I want to sleep every day? Am I suffering from some kind of laziness? Why can't I be as committed as anyone else? β
"It's not that you're not committed enough, it's that you're too committed to be tired." An Xiaoyang answered her questions.
"Really? But why didn't I achieve my goal? β
"Then, either you set your goals too high, or you have a problem with your method, which is tiring and affects work efficiency." Maider said truthfully.
"Well, maybe, I think the second one you mentioned is more likely."
But why aren't you so tired? I don't have time to go to the gym, watching my mom day by day, either studying her clothing information, or going outside to exercise with other aunts. Alas, when will I retire, it's too tiring to live for others day by day. I don't know where the previous sense of urgency has gone, and even if I don't complete the day's tasks every day, I don't urge myself to move forward. I began to think that those inspirational dramas are fooling people: how can a person always maintain such a strong passion and combat effectiveness? I was getting more and more slack every day, and it didn't work to drink coffee, but I soaked my teeth enough that I had to clean my teeth one day. β
"Not really! You can buy some strawberries and baking soda, and put them on your teeth together, brush them, and they will turn white in a few days! It's just that you can't use it more, and you have to do it again after a while after each use, otherwise it will hurt your teeth. "A girl in the water bar who loves beauty offered such a good idea.
"Well, that sounds like a good idea, and it's cheap! Think about how much toothpaste is now! Also, you just say this coffee, every time I drink it, I want to sleep even more. What is this called? Even if it's just a psychological effect, it will give me a boost! The co-authorship doesn't even have this psychological effect. β
"If you want a psychological effect, then you have to hypnotize yourself, if you can't even convince yourself, then no one else has a good way, unless you are forced to take drugs, but I don't think you want to do that." An Xiaoyangjing said this nonsense.
"Uh, don't say it's me, I guess no one dare."
"Why not! Haven't many of those athletes on the field been injected with doping? An Xiaoyang continued.
"Eh, don't talk about it, but where do you have to find stimulants? I remember that in the past, the middle school physical education test, the teachers would give stimulants to some students who studied well but were not physically fit, and gave girls drugs to delay menstruation. I'm really at some tipping point, but I can't rest, if only there was a robot that listens to me. β
"There are no robots, no stimulants, no doctor friends, but the method is not nothing, that is, my grandmother has several chickens at home, and the chicken blood is big, do you want it?" An Xiaoyang is really joking.
"Go! Fun with me, do you think I'm really here to pretend to you? But does this legendary chicken blood really work? β
"It's all told you it's a legend, why do you still believe it?" Maed thought it was funny.
"It's not faith, it's yearning! I really want to get the factory out now, and then I can leave here with peace of mind, hand it over to the next factory director, and retire, but I still have to stay up for a few more months? β
"You don't seem to enjoy it, do you? But everyone is sharpened and squeezed up! And I can't bear to come down when I become it! Med, who was also very ambitious, was puzzled.
"That's people, people have been preparing for a long time to become, of course they will cherish their hard-won, I am the factory director, there was no preparation before, if I want to be a designer, I can barely agree, this is good, let me be the director of this factory, how much advantage I have!"
At the beginning, Xiao An would blame himself for forcing himself to complete how much he had to accomplish before what time of day every day. But now even if she can't finish it, she is too lazy to work so hard, and she can't guarantee that she can be so passionate about her career all the time. I really envy people who get up at four or five o'clock every day, and then go to bed very late, like Alex Ferguson, how did he only sleep for a few hours a day? Compared with such a person, I am a little ashamed to live in the world. Or I should also try to see if the employees in our factory, in addition to those who work more, are more diligent, and see what time they arrive every day. Well, this method is good, it can help me correct the problem of sleeping lazy, how can a factory manager be lazier than an employee? Aren't you afraid of people's jokes when you say it? By the way, it's a great way to motivate me.
"So I decided to go to bed early when I go back tonight, and I'll go to the factory early tomorrow to see what time my employees are coming to work! If there are people who are earlier than me, then I will be before them! β
"Wow, look at our Xiao An for the sake of his mission, he is really out of the way! Oh, but I still like my outlook on life. An Xiaoyang enjoys his life very much.
"Don't mention your outlook on life, those concepts of yours are simply ruining my three views! However, I really want to live like you, no matter what you do, you can always accept it with peace of mind, no matter how difficult it is! "Xiao An is really envious.
"Not really! The sky is falling, so don't you still have the volunteers of you to stand on it? You are proud of your sacrifice and dedication, and I am in a limited life, under legal and reasonable conditions, I can enjoy every second I can. Otherwise, in the next life, maybe what will become? If someone as lazy as me is deprived of the qualification to be reincarnated, then what life will I have to wait until I can be a human again? Right? Therefore, in this life, I will enjoy the blessings of several lifetimes, lest I have the blessings in the future but will not have the opportunity to enjoy them. After saying that, he looked complacent again, picked up a piece of cake and ate it with peace of mind.
"It seems that Xiao An really didn't wronged you at all, your outlook on life is indeed very different, fortunately you have a normal heart, otherwise with your kind of thinking, coupled with ambition, you really have to embark on a road of no return!" Med's more and more feel that sometimes An Xiaoyang is cute.
"Hehe, so, ah, everything is relative, although I am very lazy, but I also keep to myself, and I will never covet things that do not belong to me, everything eats the heavens. If you have this money, you will spend it, if you don't have it, you won't be ecstatic if you have it, and you won't be annoyed if you don't have it! β
Very good, this is not to be frightened, sad and joyful, worthy of appreciation.
"By the way, this is Xiao An who became the director of this factory, if it were you, what would you do?" Maid suddenly had such an idea.
"Well, if I really wanted to try it, I'd definitely do it; If I don't want to do it at all, then it's useless for anyone to force me, I will be cheeky and tell people that I have this and that difficulties, and it is really difficult to accept this job. You know, I, An Xiaoyang, have no other skills, what I am best at is rejecting others! It doesn't annoy me to let others go back obediently, this is a treasure book that I An Xiaoyang has summed up for many years of wandering in the rivers and lakes! β
"Come on, what kind of treasure is this, I'm afraid that no one will come to you again after a long time, no one will beg you, then you won't want to ask others in the future, when you see that when you are in trouble, who will come to save you!" Xiao Ann was disdainful.
"Eh, my An Xiaoyang also has another ability, that is, it is rare to ask for people without success! As long as I am coquettish, the problem will be solved immediately! Of course, because I don't have any ambitions every year, I don't have any worries and problems, so naturally I don't have to trouble others! β
That's great, but why do I have such a boring life every day? Or is it the most desirable quality of a doer to quit all entertainment and leisure?
Well, haven't heard of it.
I used to love watching variety shows, but now I feel more and more bored when I watch them, and it's just a waste of time. Hey, leisure, it has become a pain in my heart, a dream. When will I have real leisure! Maybe other factory directors have survived like this, there has to be a necessary process, and I just need to adapt slowly. There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, but I can't get a heavy reward now, so naturally I can't invite a brave man. The senior talents invited before have already made a friendship price.
"An Xiaoyang, why do you keep eating? It's either talking or eating, and your mouth doesn't stop. What kind of unique skill are you, you can't even eat it! That won't delay your eating! Looking at An Xiaoyang's claws catching this for a while, and grabbing that for a while, Xiao An was a little dizzy when he looked at it.
"My mother said that you can eat whatever you want, and you have to make up for what you lack. To replenish, of course, you have to eat to ingest. So, it's natural for me to eat, what's wrong, you are now a factory director, and the things in your factory are not enough for you to take care of every day, why do you care about other people's eating, drinking, and talking? β
"That's right, do you take care of other people's food, that's people's freedom! I'm still happy to eat like this, which means that I can afford my food here! By the way, Xiao An, if you are too tired, eat more, you can taste it, this is my newly made pork chop rice, it tastes good! "Mader warmly recommends it to her.
"Well, no, I don't know how in the past two days, I get dizzy when I see animals!" Xiao An shook his head.
"Oh, that's okay too! If you really can't eat too much meat these days, let me tell you the good news, in addition to this water bar, I will open a first-class vitality soup and vegetarian restaurant in a few days! Therefore, today is not only to celebrate your ascension, but also to wish the opening of our new store. When it comes to the soft opening, you must take the time to come, even if people can't come, it's always okay to send a big flower basket, right? β
"That's fine!" Xiao An replied happily.
"Well, my purpose is that when people pass by my door one by one, they will see: Yo, this kid even knows the director of the largest garment factory here, okay! Then they must not all come to me in the future? In short, as the head of a factory, even if you are too busy to come to me every day, you have to keep me in mind from time to time, and introduce all the people around you to my shop! However, you can rest assured that I will not lose your face and will definitely give them the best quality service throughout the process! β
"Well, when it comes to quality, Xiao An, you will continue to be your high-quality girl, and I'll continue to be my naΓ―ve girl!" An Xiaoyang began to speak again.
"Are you naΓ―ve? Why do I always think you're sophisticated? Xiao An was disdainful.
"Oh, in short, my life credo is that if I can rest, I don't feel like I'm going to be busy, so tired to live! I feel pitiful when I think about it, even if I am busy, I appreciate Med's kind of thing, the money has been earned, the ideal has been realized, and I have played all the things I should have played, and there is no delay! How good is that! β
"Of course, everyone knows that it's good, but it's hard to come by, and not everyone has the talent to live the life they want at a young age. Each of us has a responsibility on our shoulders, even if you're not. It's just that your responsibility is also within your ability, and it doesn't make you feel tired, mine is different, not only can't shirk, but also makes me doubt myself a lot, can I? Can I do it? Can someone else do better? Xiao An was questioning himself again.
"Eh, this, I have to talk about you, Xiao An. It's all done by people, you're right, maybe another person will be better than better, more comfortable in water, but isn't there no such person at the moment? Even if there is, people may not want to come! So, you have to get through it, it's a workout and an experience. I think when I came here, it was not easy, didn't this come too? Has anyone helped me? Moreover, if someone with more experience than me is different, maybe they will do better than me, but I am different from you, I am self-employed, can I allow someone better than me to be around? In that case, not only will the ducks I have been in my hands be gone, but even my long-standing dreams will not be realized. "Mader is realistic.
People, you must know how to grasp your own opportunities, the goddess of luck finally came to you, and you can't drive her away! Although she has a nice name, she has always had a bad temper, and if she contradicts her once, she will never come again. If you want to be accompanied by flowers in your future life, you must offer her well, even if it is to lock her up firmly!
"Oh, by the way, you just said you don't want to eat meat, but you can drink my vegetable vitality soup! It works! Make sure you take a sip and you'll be refreshed! β
"Really? Sounds wicked! I'd like to have a bowl right now, okay? Hearing Maider say this, Xiao An was really a little greedy, thinking, since he didn't want to kill animals, it was always okay to kill a few ruthless lifeforms.
"Yes! Don't talk about a bowl, it's no problem to make it for you every day in the future! β
"Don't bother, there is a canteen in the factory!"
"The cafeteria? Can the cafeteria compare to my fine workmanship? It's been so long, what are you polite to me? Besides, the canteen is a fool, there are so many people in the factory, can you take care of everyone's tastes one by one? You, don't be polite to me, it's so decided, and my aunt and your three meals will be wrapped up in me in the future! Make sure you eat nutritious and right! β
"That's embarrassing, besides, my mother and I don't have time to make a special trip!"
"What are you afraid of? I've got takeaway here! β
"Okay, you're so happy, how much money you get in a month, I'll give it to you first!"
"You see you're out again, aren't you? Brothers and sisters, what money do you want! β
"Then, you are so good to me, what should I repay you?" Xiao An curled up his arms again and coquettishly played with Made.
"Eh, in front of so many people, don't do this with me. But since you mean it so much, I can't be the wrong one again. Then we are in business, and you also take out your strength, how about none of us suffer? β
"Okay, tell me, what's the exchange method?"
"As for me, I don't ask you for anything, aren't you recruiting a few returnee designers there? Just give me a few sets of high-end menswear for free. And your design talent, has it improved over such a long time? For better or worse, give me a few pieces! Big deal, I can also use my employees as work clothes. Eh! By the way, I have recently opened these two new stores, I haven't bought uniforms for them yet, and my store will definitely become more and more formal in the future, so from now on, I must step up and strive to be the No.1 in the leisure industry here! β
"Okay, isn't that all there is to it, it's too cheap, wrap it up on me!"
"Deal! Well, I find myself getting more and more talented at making money. Think about when I first came here, not to mention the poor mountains, but it can be regarded as uninhabited, and there are only a few villages, and there are many people who go out to work, and there is no current traffic. If I hadn't posted hero posts and made so many advertisements on the Internet, would I be able to have this water bar today? Not to mention the soup and vegetarian restaurants. Therefore, people, if you recognize one thing, you have to stick to it. Xiao An, I believe that with your tenacity, you will definitely be able to lead your whole factory out of the trough and regain glory! β
"Well, borrow your auspicious words, then I will redouble my efforts and strive to create a miracle for everyone in the shortest time!"
"Good! Then let's not talk about work today, anyway, there is no employee in your factory here, and you can't lead us. Sharpen the knife and don't cut the wood, today's task is to drink and talk, whoever doesn't get drunk is sorry for the people! I'm sorry for a piece of my Maider's heart! β
"Yay!"
Everyone no longer talks nonsense, but only remembers that there is wine today and drunk tomorrow.
