Chapter 76 Grain Depot Recruitment Announcement
Hong Tao and his wife exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, and then said nothing more.
After all, this is a matter between the young couple, and they are the ones who live their own lives. As long as they feel it's suitable, that's all that matters.
At this moment, Xu Sui had already brewed the tea and brought over the tea mug and several teacups.
"Brother Hong, Sister-in-law Li, come, have some tea." She poured tea for everyone, then poured herself a cup, and sat down next to Qin Yunzhou.
Li Xiu picked up the teacup and smelled it, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. She subconsciously looked at Xu Sui.
"I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be such a good tea maker."
"He's almost as good as some people who have been studying tea brewing for years. My dad likes to study these tea brewing techniques, but after studying them for most of his life, the tea he brews is just so-so, not as good as my younger brother and sister-in-law's."
The tea was the same tea, Xinyang Maojian. They had this tea at home, but it didn't taste the same when brewed.
These words were spoken.
Hong Tao was somewhat surprised. His father-in-law was a man of great taste and refinement. His ancestors had been wealthy and powerful, and he himself was a learned man. Only he could have raised such a well-educated and sensible daughter as his wife.
The old man didn't have many hobbies. His few hobbies included tasting tea and practicing calligraphy. He would occasionally study how to brew tea to make it smell better, and he actually had some real skills in it.
"Really? Then I'll have to give it a try." Upon hearing his wife say this, Hong Tao couldn't help but pick up the teacup in front of him.
The tea is still a bit hot, so you can't drink it yet.
You can only pick it up and smell it.
To be honest, the smell is quite different; it seems more fragrant and pleasant, not much different from the tea his father-in-law brews, and perhaps even a bit better.
"That's impressive. I didn't expect my sister-in-law to have this skill."
Xu Sui smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing special, I just did a lot of research in my spare time."
It's one of her hobbies.
In modern times, when doing business with people, you always have to cater to their preferences. Some people like to study tea art, so she catered to their interests and spent some time studying it as well.
Having many skills is never a bad thing; she studies anything that interests her whenever she has time.
Qin Yunzhou was slightly taken aback. He picked up the teacup, blew on it gently to cool it, and took a small sip. It was indeed different from what he usually drank. Although it was the same tea, it gave people two distinct differences.
He turned his head to look at the woman beside him, his gaze unconsciously falling on her face.
He seemed to be getting closer to this person, who always gave him new feelings, making him feel like he couldn't help but gradually see the former Xu Sui and the current Xu Sui as two different people.
The tea has cooled down a bit; it's not as hot anymore.
Li Xiu took several sips of tea, her eyes growing brighter with each sip, and she felt even more certain of Xu Sui's tea-making skills.
She didn't use any fancy teaware; it was just an ordinary teacup with the words "Labor is the most glorious" printed on it, which was far inferior to her father's fine purple clay teapots.
But the tea they brewed was just as good.
It seems that the rumors about Xu Sui may not all be true.
"Sister-in-law, if you have the chance, come visit us at home. It's quite a coincidence, really. When your Yunzhou and my Lao Hong were in the army, although they were superior and subordinate, their relationship was like that of brothers."
"I thought that after my husband, Lao Hong, was transferred back to his hometown, we would hardly see each other again. I never expected that we would get together again after all this time."
"By the way, sister-in-law, I just heard from Yunzhou that you're looking for a job?"
There's nothing wrong with saying this. Besides, having more friends means having more options and more information you don't know.
Xu Sui nodded, "Yeah, staying at home all the time isn't a good idea, so I'm planning to see which companies are hiring and see if I can get in."
There is still more than a year until the end of the Great Famine.
It's not appropriate for her to be too conspicuous during this year or so. Her skills, whether in technology or business, are not suitable for this period of time.
But she doesn't like being stuck at home all the time without having her own career.
So, overall, the best course of action now is to find a job and study for the exam while working. If you pass the exam next year, you can sell the job for some money.
From any perspective, it's a sure thing to make a profit.
Hong Tao thought for a moment and said, "The grain station might have a recruitment quota soon. The news is not confirmed yet, but it's pretty much a done deal."
"I'm afraid that position is another one that was deliberately created by the higher-ups to create a dead-end job."
"If that's the case, it's almost impossible for others."
After all, these few months are the time when students graduate and look for jobs.
People with connections often use this method to secure a job for their children; it's all too common.
He was just an ordinary deputy director of logistics at the grain station. At most, he could know some recruitment information about the grain station in advance, but he couldn't help much.
You should know that in recent years, almost all the units that people have been scrambling to get into are related to food.
Xu Sui thought about it and realized it was normal. She shook her head and said, "It's nothing, Brother Hong. If the recruitment information from the grain station is finalized, I'll have to trouble you to let me know."
"Anyway, it won't take much effort to try. If it doesn't work, just consider it a chance to train."
Recruitment information at grain depots is generally not made public; only internal staff know about it. More often than not, they consider recommendations from internal employees, and only secondarily consider people with urban household registration.
Upon hearing this, Hong Tao agreed and immediately agreed.
"Okay, once the recruitment information is finalized, I'll have your sister-in-law tell you."
I'll write you a letter of recommendation later.
Xu Sui immediately perked up, "Thank you, Brother Hong, thank you, Sister-in-law."
Having a letter of recommendation makes a world of difference.
The grain station usually doesn't disclose recruitment information to the public. She didn't have a letter of recommendation, so she wasn't even qualified to apply. She went to the grain station empty-handed and asked around. They were eager for their own people to pass the exam, so why would they tell an outsider about recruitment information?
"It's alright, we didn't help you much. The key is for you to work hard and pass the exam yourself." Hong Tao waved his hand.
At this moment, Li Xiu thought for a moment and said, "If the grain station really can't do it, I can help write a letter of recommendation. The nearby Hongqi Commune Primary School is short of a teacher, but this position is temporary, the benefits are average, and it is also a bit far from the county town."
"If your sister-in-law doesn't mind, this job is easy to get, as long as you have a high school diploma and pass one round of exams."
These days, a high school diploma is not low, and people with that diploma don't want to stay in a commune primary school.
