Chapter 41 Formalities

Gogarin hurriedly introduced himself.

"Hello, I'm Gogarin, I'm here to go through the formalities!"

"Oh, it's writer Xiao Gao, you're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" The middle-aged eldest sister's tone became kind, "Our temple is small, all the work of the cashier and accountant in the back office is done by me alone, my surname is Zhang, you can just call me Sister Zhang!" ”

"Come, sit, don't pestle! Young man, you big and tall, I have to look up with a pestle. "Sister Zhang is a cheerful character, and she is a standard Northwest person when she hears it.

"Sister Zhang, hello!" Gao Jialin immediately changed his name and sat honestly at the desk opposite her, "I'm really sorry, I went to Shanghai "Children's Literature and Art" magazine to revise the manuscript a few days ago, so I delayed the matter!" ”

Gao Garin took out all his materials from his bag and respectfully handed them to the other party, "This is all the formalities I have done according to your instructions on the phone. What is missing? ”

"Huh!" Sister Zhang took the material and probably flipped through it, "Not bad!" It's basically all together! It seems that the village chief of your village has written it down and passed on the message to you quite well. can survive smoothly under the rectification a while ago, and he is also a capable person! ”

Gao Jialin smiled embarrassedly, Sister Zhang is also a well-informed person who knows everything!

Next, under the command of Sister Zhang, Gao Jialin filled out countless forms. In the end, she received all these things with satisfaction, put them into a large file bag along with Gao Garin's materials, and stabbed her mouth, "Xiao Gao, it's okay, that's it for now." I'll do the rest of the process, our temple also has the benefits of a small temple, and it's relatively convenient to go through the process. You're going to go to those big units, and you're going to have to run down these processes for at least a month. ”

"By the way, I only work at the newspaper every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning, and the rest of the time I work at the newspaper, after all, it's just a part-time job. Our chairman, too, comes here every Monday morning and is not there at other times. Remember, lest you run in vain. ”

Gogarin nodded repeatedly, secretly glad that he had hit the right time, otherwise he would have to run again.

"Our unit is basically part-time, you are the only full-time writer, when our organization was established, it was very strict, it is better to have a shortage than an indiscriminate, rather than have a vacant establishment, rather than stuff people in. Fortunately, you meet the requirements in all aspects, and the leader is also to absorb fresh blood, so he hired you exceptionally. I also think there should be more newcomers, a dozen or so old men are chattering there at a meeting, and they are annoyed! ”

Sister Zhang is very talkative, and she said a lot without Gao Jialin asking.

"Xiao Gao, although your formalities haven't been completed yet, it's basically fine. I'll tell you some of the truth. Our small temple doesn't care about anything, there are no benefits, and there are no promotion channels. ”

"There are quite a lot of rules and regulations, such as: participate in political study and organizational activities on time, must set aside a certain amount of time every year to go deep into the grassroots and life, formulate a plan for creation and in-depth life at the beginning of the year, hand in a report on the completion of the year at the end of the year, and there are also unified regulations on foreign visits and foreign affairs, which must be submitted for approval and approved by the leadership."

"These systems were all set by the three leaders, but after only one year of implementation, several writers complained that there were too many constraints and that there were big opinions. But everyone has their own business, and they don't care if they are in the association. Xiao Gao, you are different, so I suggest that you learn these systems honestly, and then implement the rules and regulations! ”

"Our temple is a little demon and a big wind, there are many kings in the pool, there are not many people, and there are a lot of idle things. After you come in, you have to be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't follow some old guys to toss around, otherwise you will suffer! ”

Gao Jialin nodded again and again, it was obvious that Sister Zhang was the leader's confidant, and she was beating him by saying these words before joining the company.

But if you think about it, you also know that the top leaders of those newspapers and magazines, as well as the top leaders of the cultural center, are all big people who don't care about whether they join the writers' association at all, and the identity of a writers' association chairman is not easy to suppress others. So naturally there will be the phenomena that Sister Zhang said. I can only talk less, cause less trouble, and try to hide as far away as possible.

Gogarin walked out of the door of the Writers' Association, and he was thinking in his heart. Now that I'm about to join the Writers' Association, should I move again and move to Yan'an?

There are ready-made benefits in the county, one is to save trouble, the house has been cleaned up, it is very comfortable to live, and the other is close to Gaojia Village, and it is convenient to go home often.

But the problem is that it is too far away from the writers' association, and it is inconvenient to communicate at this time, so Sister Zhang has to call the county post and telecommunications bureau to find herself, and then let the postman Xiaohai run away to find herself. It takes three or four hours to come to Yan'an by yourself, and it takes half a day. It's so inconvenient!

Gogarin thought about it again and again and decided to move!

Although the county seat is good, it is too closed. The transportation is inconvenient, the distance is too far, and it is not convenient to go to work. Sooner or later, I will have to get out of that small county town.

The search for a house is imminent!

Who can I ask for help in YA City? Naturally, he couldn't get around his second uncle Gao Yuzhi's family. After all, they are relatives, and if Gogarin doesn't ask them for help, it will make people feel angry.

Gogarin bought some fruit and went straight to the door with a bag.

In the case of Gao Yuzhi, as soon as he arrived, he had a proper living environment, and he didn't have to worry about it at all. Gogarin also came to visit his house, and this time he found a place with familiarity.

Gao Jialin rang the doorbell, and it was his aunt, Gao Yuzhi's wife, who opened the door. The two had also met, and as soon as they opened the door, they recognized each other.

"Ah, it's Garin, come, please sit in the room! Why do you still bring things? Why are you so polite at your second uncle's house! ”

Gao Yuzhi's home is quite difficult and simple, although it is a building, it is also a cement floor, there is no wooden floor or anything like that, so naturally there is no need to change shoes.

Gao Garin himself was neither humble nor arrogant, so he came as if he were his own relatives, greeted his second aunt, put his things on the table at the door, went into the living room by himself, and sat on the sofa.

"Isn't the second uncle at home?" Gogarin asked casually.

"Oh, I'm going to work, but I'm coming back soon. Your younger brother Kaping also went to school, and he didn't come back at noon and ate in the school cafeteria. You sit down, drink some water, and read the newspaper. I still have vegetables in the pot, and I'm cooking, so I won't greet you! ”

The second aunt was busy cooking, so she let Gogarin on the sofa and went into the kitchen to get busy. Gao Jialin wanted to help, but the second aunt even said that she didn't need it. In the Northwest, going into the kitchen is a woman's business, and men never go into the kitchen. Naturally, Gogarin also knew this, so he didn't insist anymore.

Gogarin was bored, so he took some newspapers and began to read them, even to pass the time.

It wasn't long before there was a knock at the door. Gao Jialin hurriedly went to open the door, and as soon as the door opened, it was his second uncle Gao Yuzhi.

"Oh, Garin! There you are! Gao Yuzhi was a little surprised at first, and then he warmly welcomed Gao Garin.

"Garin, sit down, you're welcome!" Gao Yuzhi took off his coat, hung it on the hanger, and beckoned Garin to sit down. Both of them sat on the sofa, and Gao Yuzhi began to ask.

"Garin, is your dad okay? Where's your mother? ”

"It's good, they're in good health, and everything else in the family is fine!" Gogarin replied respectfully.

"Oh, that's good! I heard that you and Xiao Liu went to Shanghai? Was it invited by the magazine? ”

"Well, yes, we went together, and we just came back the day before yesterday."

"Garin, I'm going to say two things to you. People's magazines invite you to revise the manuscript, and you take Xiao Liu with you, it's not appropriate! ”

Gao Jialin hurriedly explained, saying that it was invited by the editor-in-chief Qian repeatedly, saying that it was inappropriate for the newlywed Yan'er to let Gao Jialin go alone. And Liu Qiaozhen's expenses are all paid by herself.

Gao Yuzhi nodded with satisfaction, "Garin, it's right to do this, don't take advantage of the public!" By the way, I've heard that you're almost done joining the Municipal Writers' Association, right? ”

Gao Garin nodded hurriedly, "Yes, it's almost the same, and I'm here to go through the entry procedures today." I plan to buy a house in the city and move to the city in the future. ”

"Already on board?" Gao Yuzhi was very happy, "Not bad, not bad!" The last time I saw Minister Wang of the Propaganda Department, he took the initiative to tell me about you. Say that you are the pride of YA City, and it has been a long time since there has been a nationally renowned writer like you. Now that I'm going to join the company, it's good to live in the city, but it's too far away to run around. ”

Gogarin nodded, "Yes! When I joined the company today, Sister Zhang had already told me that the system of the Writers' Association is still quite strict, with daily study, regular summaries, and many meetings. I can only live in the city. So I'm going to buy a house and settle here in the future. ”

"Buying a house?" Gao Yuzhi was a little surprised, "Don't you guys divide the house?" ”

In this era, almost no one wants to buy a house, and those who have a unit are waiting for a flat to divide the house. If you don't need money for a house divided into units, why do you pay for it outside yourself?

"The Writers' Association is different from other units!" Gao Jialin hurriedly explained: "The other members of the writers' association are all part-time, and the house matter has been solved in the original unit. Only I am full-time, and I have just joined the company, and the Writers' Association has no plans to do so. ”

"Oh, I see. It takes a lot of money to buy a house, do you have enough money? Gao Yuzhi asked with concern.

"Enough! The children's novels I wrote were long and made a lot of money. Buying a house is enough. Now I'm not familiar with the city, and I don't know who to ask about it. Gogarin finally said what he was going to do.

When Gao Yuzhi heard this, it turned out to be this matter, I thought you came to borrow money. This thing does not violate the principle, and it is easy to do!

"It's easy! Although your aunt and I are not familiar with this side, Secretary Liu is a native of the city and is very familiar with the city! I'll ask him to accompany you for a walk in the afternoon, the house is very important, you should get this done first! ”
