Despite being a cold luncheon meat, Zhongbai tasted sweeter than anything else.

Recently, when he was eating with others, no matter where he was, Zhong Bai seemed to be out of the rhythm of thinking about things while eating, and discussing things with others at the same time.

And now?

It's just a kind of eating quietly by yourself, and then there is a woman next to you who cares about and likes herself watching herself eat, and from time to time she will ask you a heart-warming sentence such as "Don't just eat meat, eat some steamed buns", "Drink some hot water, be careful to choke".

In 1982, not everyone could afford to eat convenient food such as canned luncheon meat, which cost several yuan per can, but Song Xiaoli said that she almost didn't hesitate to buy it for herself, which also made Zhong Bai feel nameless in his heart.

He suddenly felt that working in this remote and lonely small station was wronged by Song Xiaoli, a good woman.

An unprecedented thought suddenly burst out of Zhong Bai's mind, he put the fork in his hand, looked at Song Xiaoli's eyes, and asked, "Xiaoli, I want to ask you a question, don't be too surprised." ”

"You say." Song Xiaoli blinked her eyes and smiled.

She stared at the big boy in front of her, but she suddenly felt a sense of nervousness in her heart, as if she smelled something, as if the other party's next question might have a major impact on the trajectory of her life.

It turns out that a woman's sixth sense is very acute, especially in the face of the opposite sex who has feelings for her.

Zhong Bai waited for a while before speaking, and his tone seemed very cautious: "Have you considered working at the station for the rest of your life?" Or have you ever thought about leaving the rail system in the future to do something more challenging? ”

"Hoo ......"

Hearing this, Song Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that Zhong Bai was going to say another thing, but fortunately, she was only talking about work.

Song Xiaoli said faintly: "Actually, I didn't think about working in Tiandu before, just because my father was transferred, and he asked me to come to Tianning Station, after all, I grew up in the railway system since I was a child, but ......"

"But what?"

"However, I also secretly thought about what it would be like if I left the railway system to work in another unit. Will it be like these two positions, will it be possible to go to work at any time? ”

This is Song Xiaoli's true thoughts.

She didn't give Zhong Bai a positive or negative answer, but only showed a faint subconscious, that is, her life in the past twenty years or so has been running in a mold, and she actually has a longing in her heart now, although this desire is not strong enough, and it does not have the decisive motivation that Yu Dongfeng had to go to the sea at that time.

After all, the situation of men and women is different, not to mention the 80s, that is, in the 21st century, the thinking of Chinese families believes that it is far better for girls to find a more stable job than to become a strong woman, which is a common mainstream thought.

The particularity of the railway system also determines that the people who work in it must be on duty at any time, whether you are a waiter in the station restaurant or a financial staff in a small station, as long as there is a need at the station, you must be on duty.

Not to mention the conductors, who have a stable job, but at the cost of staying on trains that run all over the country all year round, even far longer than you spend at home.

And Song Xiaoli actually didn't want to be like this in her heart, especially after she met Zhong Bai.

In less than a year, this young and excellent man witnessed his journey from a graduate intern of a technical school who had just arrived at the county fertilizer factory, step by step from deputy section chief and deputy factory director, to the provincial industrial department to become a section chief.

When you go abroad, you can just go, and you also have a lot of work on your shoulders at any time, if women in this era don't have a little envy and admiration for such an excellent Zhong Bai, it is definitely a lie.

"So, are you trying to advise me to leave the rail system? But I don't have any other jobs now, where can I go? Song Xiaoli shook her head, put aside the things she was thinking about just now, and threw the question to Zhong Bai again.

Zhong Bai had already considered this question, otherwise he would not have asked the question that he blurted out after hesitating again and again.

"I think...... In terms of work, you are a very patient, meticulous and responsible comrade. Zhong Bai said this very objectively and heartfeltly: "So, if I tell you, Yu Dongfeng's company will become bigger and bigger in the future, even not just a company, but a huge group...... And in the future, the financial director of this group, do you want to challenge this position? ”

"Ahh In the face of Zhong Bai's fierce material, Song Xiaoli was really startled, and she looked at Zhong Bai blankly after screaming "ah", and only after a while did she speak: "I...... I can be ...... What is the head of finance of the group? Zhong Bai, don't joke with me! ”

"I'm serious." Zhong Bai picked up the financial report on the table, and then said: "I paid attention to it when I was eating just now, it seems that before you were transferred to Tianning Station, in several suburban county stations under the jurisdiction of Tiandu City, the financial work of Tianning Station was very average, and even ranked low, but ......"

"But in the past few months, the financial work of your station has clearly gone to a higher level. Look at ......" Zhong Baishun pointed to the instructions on a document: "Tiandu Railway Bureau has commended your financial work in the first quarter, and I have every reason to believe that your financial work is far better than your previous achievements as a waiter in the restaurant of Shanping Station." ”

"Now that you've proven yourself talented in finance, why not go to a bigger platform?" Zhong Bai smiled slightly and asked.

"Yes...... But what kind of company and group are you talking about just now, I am the financial officer of the railway system unit, these ......" Song Xiaoli obviously didn't expect Zhong Bai to give herself such a high evaluation.

"What's this? Do you think I don't know anything about finance? That's right, the railway system is a public institution accounting standard, and the company uses the enterprise unit accounting standard, which is a little different, but I think these are minor problems for you. Zhong Bai said bluntly: "After all, before you were transferred here as an accountant, you were just an ordinary restaurant waiter, weren't you?" If you can get up to speed so quickly in two months to take your station's finances to the next level, why can't you do better and better in your new job in the future? Absolutely! ”

"As long as the heart is big, the future will be big." Zhong Bai said to Song Xiaoli seriously: "I believe in this sentence, and I have also realized this sentence, and you ...... I think it's okay. ”
