Chapter 86: Heartlessness
Xinlan's relocation is deadlocked, she doesn't know how to break this deadlock, the savings in her hand are basically gone, and the most left is to pay a bus fare.
As the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. Xinlan is now almost penniless, and even if she wants to run again, she can't run anymore.
She couldn't borrow money. Thinking of the method that Director Fan said, he either waited or went to his original unit to have a look.
This sentence made her haunted, she didn't know if this advice would work, but she felt that if she didn't go, if she had a better chance, she would only regret it.
Fortunately, the job she worked at Chen Ping took care of food, drink and accommodation, which gave her a chance to breathe and relieve her worries.
Wouldn't it be better for her to feel in her heart that she should go and see, if there was hope here. Taking a step back, it just didn't work, and there was no regret left.
Otherwise, when I think about it in the future, I will always have a pimple in my heart. She kept this in mind, and after the shift was handed over the next day, she got on the bus to the third factory.
Xinlan had never been to the third factory before, and when she came back early, she heard from her parents that the third factory had moved to a place called Xincheng in the western suburbs, which was more of a satellite city of Xijing than in Xijing.
There are separate bus lines to get around, but this bus is not a large bus that usually runs in the city, but just a medium bus.
Xinlan sat in the car, for some reason she was a little resistant, and she even had a strange idea that made her feel strange, that is, she hoped that she would not achieve anything there, as if she could stay in the second factory by doing so.
The bus ran on the narrow road, the river on one side was overgrown with reeds, and one or two or even more wild ducks could be seen playing on the occasional outcropping water, which made Xinlan feel that the place she was going to was desolate.
Xinlan felt cold in her heart, and directly wanted to dispel the idea of going to the third factory, she wondered why the third factory would choose such a remote address, and regretted her trip, but suddenly remembered that Director Fan had said that this matter might have to be explained to the third factory in the future, and she felt that this trip would not work.
She didn't know what the result would be if she went forward, so she said in her heart, whatever it was, she would be safe when she came, and she would see what the situation would be.
The minibus stopped at a terminal on the edge of the new town. When Xinlan got off the bus, she asked the conductor for the path to the third factory, and then walked along an asphalt road.
On the way, Xinlan's heart rolled away, she didn't know if she would meet the sisters who used to work together today, thinking that she would not be ridiculed when she saw such an image of herself, she felt a little inferior in her heart.
I used to feel this way when I was in the No. 2 factory, but then I heard that the workers of the No. 3 factory rarely stayed in the No. 2 factory, so I relaxed.
Will you meet them today? Xinlan was conflicted, hoping to see them but also afraid to see them.
It's been more than ten years, and they haven't been in touch, do they still know themselves? Finally saw the logo of the third cotton factory.
Xinlan was a little indescribably moved in her heart, no matter what, this is also her mother's home. What surprised Xinlan was that the gate of the new third factory was magnificent, which looked larger than the second factory, which made her a little doubtful of her initial idea, and she had new expectations in her heart.
Immediately outside the gate is a free market selling vegetables, although the scale is not large, it is also bustling with people coming and going, but the market is full of workers wearing the work clothes of the third cotton factory.
Xinlan walked to the factory with mixed feelings, and was greeted by a female worker who felt about her age.
Xinlan asked her about the way to the office building, so she went inside again. The layout of the factory seems to be the same as when she went to work, and Xinlan came to the office building according to the instructions just now.
The factory office is also on the second floor. Xinlan came up with her excitement, but saw a room with an office number nailed open door, and several people who looked like leaders inside were standing and sitting on the chairs that entered the door and talking.
Xinlan instinctively hesitated, beating a drum in her heart, she didn't know if she should go in at this moment. But this idea just flashed and was vetoed by himself.
It's been so long, why are you still afraid to come out to do things, she can't help but want to say two words about herself, it turns out that she is a small worker in the factory, who can remember you, and then remember what you should do, what is there to worry about?
Besides, the few people sitting in the door also seemed to see themselves, so what else was there to hide. Xinlan thought of this, and her scalp hardened and entered the office.
There was a sudden silence in the office, and a group of people looked at Xinlan with different expressions, as if they were all waiting to hear what this woman had to say.
Xinlan was not polite, just stood at the entrance and said with a smile: Hello leaders, I am an old worker of our factory when it was in the city.
It was the first group of people to respond to the call to drag their families to the countryside to support farmers. In the past two years, the state has relaxed its policy and allowed us to return to our original units.
So I wanted to come back and see how people like us could return to our unit. Everyone was listening intently.
Hearing Xinlan say this, they all turned their attention to an elderly leader. It was as if they were all waiting to see what he would say.
I saw that the old leader turned his face to a middle-aged man: Director Tian, this matter seems to be in your hands, how do you think this matter can be solved?
The person who was called Director Tian didn't ask Xinlan if she was working in that section of the workshop, as if Xinlan had no connection with her own factory at all, and respectfully said to the leader: Director Liu, all the people who have gone to the countryside in our factory over the years are some young people, and they are all seven or three years after the construction of the new factory, and the return has been solved one after another.
Seventy-three years ago, we had an agreement with the No. 2 factory, and all the problems of the workers were under their control, which was approved by the leaders of the higher bureau.
In addition, when the new factory was built, it was said that the original technical personnel belonged to us, and the workers left it to the second factory as a condition for replacing the land and relocating, but in the end, the workers chose to return to our factory in order to solve the problems of their families, and they did not help us at all.
This problem should be reported to the superiors in the future, so that their factory can report some recruitment indicators to our factory, so as to solve the problem of unemployed family members in our factory.
As for the problem that this comrade said, she should go to the second factory to solve it. After the factory director surnamed Tian finished speaking, everyone turned their eyes to Xinlan again.
Xinlan was embarrassed. After hearing this, she knew that the other party had directly said this to death, but listening to his impersonal attitude at all, Xinlan couldn't stand it a little.
Thinking about this period of time, I was begging for someone in a low voice all day long, and I didn't dare to speak confidently once, so I couldn't control my desire to have a seizure, so I said with anger in my heart: Director Tian, I listened to you, and I felt that you didn't make sense at all!
When we went to the countryside, we went out from our factory. Not to mention that we responded to the call to solve the problems in the factory, but with the fact that we are our old workers, should you think about us, not to mention that we were still workers in our factory when we went to the countryside, and all our procedures were handled by our factory.
Speaking of it now, when we come back, the policy should be solved, not to mention, just to talk about feelings, like our people's affairs, should the third factory come forward to negotiate with the second factory to help us solve it!
? Everyone didn't expect Xinlan to be able to say this, and they didn't know how to deal with it. Director Tian listened, although his face was a little unbearable, he didn't panic, he immediately heard the point of the problem, so he still maintained his demeanor and said to Xinlan: Your eldest sister is right.
At the same time that you are looking for the second factory to solve this problem, you can also mention the agreement we signed to them, after all, this is not only your business, but also involves a lot of old intellectuals and young people in our factory.
In addition, as the original leaders of the third factory, we will also reflect this matter to the bureau, strive to give everyone one more choice, and help everyone solve this problem as soon as possible.
Director Tian's words immediately resolved Xinlan's anger. She couldn't continue to get angry, but she couldn't leave so disgraced, so she had no choice but to ask again: Then you say this, what should I do about this?
After hearing this, Director Tian said unhurriedly: You can register here, hold a meeting in the bureau again, and we will definitely report your problem to the top and strive to help you solve the problem with everyone!
After speaking, he ordered to bring a pen and paper to make a detailed registration of Xinlan's name and family situation.
Director Tian's crisp and neat response made Xinlan at a loss, she felt that she couldn't see any hope if she stayed any longer, it was nothing more embarrassing for herself, so she had no choice but to retreat and walk on the way back.
But when I walked to the market, all of a sudden, I felt that a familiar woman was walking out of the market with the vegetables she bought, which made Xinlan's mood suddenly excited!
