From the History of the Republic of China to Raising Children in the 1970s

After a while, the two of them arrived at a small office on the first floor. There were two long desks in the middle of the room, and two cabinets against the wall, which should contain some documents.

Wu Liren took Li Chengye in and pointed to a table, "Comrade Li, there is no one at this position, you can sit here first."

Li Chengye nodded, walked over, and gently wiped his fingers on the table. There was no dust on his fingertips.

Wu Liren saw his action and smiled and said, "I just wiped this table this morning. It's very clean."

"Thank you for the trouble." Li Chengye looked around. It seemed that Wu Liren was a very particular person. The room was very clean and the things were arranged neatly.

"What's the trouble? It's just a matter of convenience. By the way, I'll sit opposite you. I was the only one in this office before. Now that you're here, I finally have something to do. You don't know how bored I am." Wu Liren smiled and sat on the opposite seat. He was very enthusiastic towards Li Chengye, and his fair face was full of smiles.

"Hey, shouldn't there be five officials in the union?" Li Chengye put the notebook and pen he brought with him on the table in front of him, and then sat down, asking about the union's situation in a casual manner.

"Oh, yes, there are four other people, but they are all in another office, and we are responsible for different things." Wu Liren looked at the door and saw that it was closed, and then he started talking like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

"Our union was established not long ago. The chairman and vice chairman were both senior executives on the factory production line. However, they are approaching retirement age in recent years, so the factory let them take charge of the union, but they generally don't take care of things."

"The union actually doesn't have much to do. It has two parts of work. One part is to handle and collect opinions from factory workers, help resolve disputes and problems, or help fight for some benefits. The other part is to organize some activities. Activities and learning some of the spirit from above, this part was done by me before, and you will be responsible for this part with me in the future. But don't worry, our factory has a heavy production task, and generally we don't organize any activities. For example, I have only organized three learning activities since I came here. The rest of the time is very free, so it's okay to read out the policies from above. "

Wu Liren winked at Li Chengye after he finished speaking, and he seemed to be quite satisfied with his current job.

"Is that so? Then I am really lucky to be assigned here." Li Chengye smiled and nodded, responding to his words very well.

"That's pretty good luck. You know, our steel mill is profitable, and the welfare benefits are almost the best in the county. During the Chinese New Year last year, the people in the factory were given a lot of things, and ordinary workers were given at least three pounds of meat." Wu Liren licked his lower lip after he finished speaking, as if the taste of meat was still lingering on his lips.

"Really?" Three pounds of meat, in the eyes of Li Chengye in the past, three pounds of meat was nothing at all. At that time, they had more than that for a meal. But in this place, three pounds of meat can feed a family for several days. It's really unthinkable, unthinkable.

"Of course. Before the Chinese New Year, our factory will buy some good things from outside."

Li Chengye nodded and smiled, with an expectant look on his face. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Comrade Wu, what should I do today?"

"Ah, let me take a look. Take a look at these documents. These are all materials sent from above. You should familiarize yourself with them first." Wu Liren handed Li Chengye a document. Most of them were documents sent from above. There were quite a lot of them.
