Chapter 191: Even If It Doesn’t Kill Him, It’ll Peel A Layer Of Skin
Accountant Shen didn’t tell Old Hu the truth, so naturally he couldn’t admit that he had a prejudice against Lu Qiaoge.
This was something he couldn’t admit even if beaten to death.
Because he was in the wrong.
But he had his own scheming.
He didn’t really want to go to the Neighborhood Committee anyway, mainly because he didn’t want to continue staying at the grassroots level.
But he couldn’t say it was Lu Qiaoge who got him transferred away; no one would believe that, and they might even think he was talking nonsense.
He hadn’t expected the Labor Union to extend an olive branch to him. After thinking it over, Accountant Shen didn’t go; that Old Liang was a shrewd one—what was the reason for giving him such a good opportunity out of nowhere?
It must be for Lu Qiaoge.
That would be meaningless.
Lu Qiaoge wasn’t an ordinary person; if she really caught him in the wrong, he’d be skinned alive even if not beaten to death.
Old Liang hadn’t learned his lesson.
Besides, why should he get involved out of nowhere?
So he declined Old Liang’s kindness, and thus Accountant Shen was transferred to the Staff Hospital.
This was also a good work unit.
It was an equal transfer, after all; the Neighborhood Committee and the Staff Hospital were at the same level.
At this moment, Accountant Shen was preparing the accounts handover. After thinking about it, he went to the General Office to find Lu Qiaoge: “…We’re still in the same system, so I’ll see how much contribution you can make to the country.”
Lu Qiaoge was somewhat speechless.
But she still smiled brightly and said, “I’ve already secured a foreign trade order for the country.”
Accountant Shen: “…”
Yeah, an order worth five thousand RMB was pretty good.
He himself hadn’t secured even a single cent yet.
He probably never would in his lifetime.
Lu Qiaoge smiled sincerely: “Accountant Shen, actually your business capability is really good, but you’re so stubborn. I hope in the future you can look more at M and study well what serving the people really means!”
Accountant Shen: “…”
Those who didn’t know might think you were Director Hao.
He must have been full and had nothing better to do—why get angry with this sharp-tongued little girl?
Accountant Shen stormed off angrily.
Lu Qiaoge registered quickly. After finishing writing, she handed it to Sister Hua, checked the time, and needed to prepare to go report at the Training Base with Shao Le.
Work was busy now, so naturally there was no full-time training.
But they had to get up early every day for training.
Shao Le was very excited; he didn’t have much to exhort because he was just interning at the Public Security Office.
Lu Qiaoge was responsible for much more.
But the Food Factory side was very stable now; yesterday the first batch of sunflower seed baskets had gone with the sunflower seeds on the special train to Nancheng.
Although they had signed the order, it was everyone’s first contact, and they were afraid Zhen Xi would back out.
Even though Lu Qiaoge said the cost of backing out would be high, they still felt uneasy.
This was why people earn your money and you still have to thank them.
It was putting the cart before the horse.
But that was fine; confidence would come with time.
They had agreed on one thousand, but ended up overcompleting with three thousand, each one a high-quality product. The Foreign Trade Bureau and Elder Sister Su brought people to inspect, and found no faults.
They even gifted fifty as compensation for possible loss.
The payment was fifteen hundred, to be paid upon arrival of goods.
Lu Qiaoge had promised the Food Factory workers that once the payment arrived, she would apply for overtime pay for them.
Lu Qiaoge put the fountain pen and diary in her shoulder bag and said to Shao Le, “The Food Factory side is fine now; we can go.”
It was now eight-thirty; assembly at nine.
Lu Qiaoge had heard from Qin Hengzhi that it was mainly for young workers in leisurely positions.
Like the Mechanism offices, Labor Union, Women’s Federation, Cultural Palace, literary teams, etc.
Of course, it was also to take the Military Representative Office to the next level.
They say winter training in the third nine and summer training in the third fu; choosing this month was also deliberate by Representative Qin.
But actually, Northern summer mornings were still quite cool.
Lu Qiaoge really liked this kind of training; she could see her family’s Representative Qin every day.
So she had to participate actively.
Lu Qiaoge and Shao Le rode bicycles to report at the Training Base.
After she left, the district’s phone call came; upon hearing Lu Qiaoge had gone to the Training Base and wouldn’t be back until the afternoon, Elder Sister Su smilingly told Old Hu about the Trade Group matter.
Old Hu naturally knew the whole story.
Lu Qiaoge had reported it to him and Old Huang first thing.
But what surprised Old Hu was, how did it really happen?
Although there were many troublesome matters involved, the Authorities actually agreed.
Old Hu said to Elder Sister Su, “When Qiao Ge comes to work in the afternoon, I’ll tell her.”
And at this time, Lu Qiaoge and Shao Le had ridden their bicycles to the Training Base.
When they arrived, many people were already there.
Mostly young people.
In Lu Qiaoge’s memory, there had been such training before, but she was little then, and remembered it just feeling fun.
Now people went to work early, and there were many her age; the huge Training Base was naturally divided by gender.
Females on the right, males on the left.
These people were all very disciplined, probably because many were children raised in the Military, so they weren’t strangers to this kind of training.
And they could quickly find their positions.
The vast training ground didn’t seem chaotic at all.
But this was only part; there was a large portion—about half—frowning, clutching handkerchiefs and wiping sweat nonstop, faces full of displeasure.
A young woman muttered, “This is so annoying; training in this hot weather—what for? I put on powder this morning, and now it feels so uncomfortable.”
“They say it’s half a month of training—oh my god, I won’t last.”
“Training in the morning and work in the afternoon—no one could stand that.”
But they all said Qin Hengzhi was very handsome, so girls who didn’t know he had a partner looked toward the Main Stage.
They heard Qin Hengzhi, Representative Qin, was the handsomest man in the Military Factory.
Today they could finally see him.
But this was a reserved era; even if they liked him, they couldn’t show it, just hiding it secretly in their hearts.
Lu Qiaoge and Shao Le had separated long ago.
She didn’t stand on the edge; she was in a very conspicuous position.
She wanted Qin Hengzhi to see her at a glance.
Lu Qiaoge stood ramrod straight, feeling like she was the most standard and best-looking among all the girls on the field.
This was Qin Hengzhi’s real thought at that moment, standing on the Main Stage.
His gaze lingered on Lu Qiaoge for a few seconds, then quietly shifted away.
Squad Leader Duan from the Guard Squad picked up the loudspeaker and started calling basic formation commands.
“Attention—! …Eyes right—align! Eyes front! Report numbers!”
Remarkably, after this, order was instantly restored.
Lu Qiaoge turned her head and saw Shen Yun.
What a coincidence—they were in the same row.
Shen Yun’s heart skipped a beat; that feeling was indescribable.
What bad luck; she cursed inwardly and hatefully shifted her gaze away.
Lu Qiaoge couldn’t be bothered with her, just staring ahead with sparkling eyes, because her family’s Representative Qin was starting to speak.
The speech was simple and powerful—it was really pleasant to listen to.
He announced the discipline and assembly times, then organized the formation once more.
After that, it was dismissed.
Lu Qiaoge didn’t go find Shao Le; with so many people, they had agreed beforehand to each go their own way after dismissal.
Qin Hengzhi looked toward the training ground—strangely, in the vast crowd, he spotted his little partner at a glance.
She was in the crowd, smiling radiantly while talking with Du Shuang from the Food Factory and her younger sister Lu Qiaoling.
She looked so sweet and obedient—where was the domineering air of suggesting Accountant Shen be transferred?
Perhaps sensing something, Lu Qiaoge looked toward Representative Qin on the Main Stage across the crowd.
The pretty little girl’s smile deepened…
Treasures, happy weekend~
