Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work-Chapter 106: Another Job Opportunity Arrives
"This..." Yi Roujing, although happy to have found a job, was immediately followed by various concerns. She didn’t expect to have a job so soon, her family didn’t even know yet, and Xia Xingchen had just moved in with her. Besides, there’s still no news about Ding Anmin.
Ding Ancheng’s couple’s room will have to wait until the fall semester, and she doesn’t want to live alone in the county’s staff dormitory, oh, it’s so conflicting.
"Can I, can I go back and discuss it with my family, and then set a time?" Yi Roujing felt somewhat audacious as she said it.
Chen Youyi nodded with a smile, "Sure."
He then wrote a string of numbers and gave it to Yi Roujing, "This is my office phone number. Have your family call me once you’ve discussed it, and I’ll arrange it for you then."
"Thank you, Dean Chen." Yi Roujing now realized the identity of the person before her.
"No need to thank me." Chen Youyi waved his hand, "Once Le is better, I’ll bring someone over to thank you."
"Oh, there’s no need, I just..."
Before Yi Roujing could finish her refusal, Chen Youyi laughed. "Actually, I’m quite stubborn. Although you saved my son today, if you weren’t technically skilled and fit for this job, I wouldn’t have arranged for you to be in the hospital. After all, the hospital isn’t a place just anyone can enter, skills must be considered, even for nurses."
"There are a thousand ways to show gratitude. You should understand my meaning, today you earned this job yourself. Mr. Yi, you will definitely be an outstanding nurse." Chen Youyi praised.
After getting Yi Roujing’s home address and contact information, Chen Youyi allowed her to leave the hospital.
It was already 9:40, and Yi Roujing checked her watch, and she and Ding Anguo ran towards the county government.
"Big sister-in-law, you’re amazing, you’ll be the nurse at the food factory’s staff hospital now." Ding Anguo witnessed the whole process and was still somewhat in disbelief.
"Yes, big sister-in-law found a job, I’ll help you and Anmin find jobs too." Yi Roujing said confidently, as long as she integrated well and knew more people, she’d learn about job vacancies quickly.
The two tidied themselves up before entering the county government gate, it was five minutes to ten. The gatekeeper knew who she was immediately upon hearing her name, as they had been briefed, and directed her accordingly. Yi Roujing and Ding Anguo smoothly reached the lobby and were led by the staff inside to the office.
"Old Chen, why aren’t you here yet? Even if you’ve found someone, you should come meet them today, it’s settled then." Lou Chongshang directly hung up Chen Youyi’s call.
"Knock, knock—"
"Come in."
"County Magistrate Lou, Mr. Yi and company are here." The office clerk led Yi Roujing and Ding Anguo in, and Lou Chongshang warmly invited them to sit.
After the clerk stepped out, she returned with tea for everyone.
Ding Anguo was slightly uneasy, while Yi Roujing remained calm, conversing well with Lou Chongshang, although Lou Chongshang only asked a few simple questions.
"Mr. Yi, this is a reward from the city, please keep it safe."
An envelope, and Yi Roujing knew it contained money but wasn’t sure how much.
"Actually, that’s what I should be doing. I’m very grateful for the attention from the city, county, and the commune. I will definitely live up to the trust, continue to work hard, and be a good citizen serving the people." Yi Roujing effortlessly expressed gratitude and her determination, as everyone did these days.
"The county wants to offer you a job position. Is there a specific place you’re interested in working, Mr. Yi?" Lou Chongshang, understanding his old classmate’s thoughts, gently asked Yi Roujing. If she wanted to go elsewhere, it would be satisfactory for all.
"A job position?" Yi Roujing was stunned, wondering what a great day it was, having job offers continually coming her way. Given that she already had a job and now a job opportunity, she...
"County Magistrate Lou, can I give this job opportunity to a family member?" Yi Roujing nervously asked.
Lou Chongshang paused, "You want to give the job to a family member?"
"Is that possible?" Yi Roujing asked eagerly.
Lou Chongshang laughed upon hearing this, "The job is intended for Mr. Yi. If Mr. Yi wants to transfer the job to a family member, it’s certainly possible."
Yi Roujing was ecstatic, "County Magistrate Lou, may I know where this job position is?"
"It’s available in some county units and factories." Lou Chongshang found things going more smoothly than expected and even relaxed the constraints on job assignments.
"Is there a designated position type?" Yi Roujing asked again.
"You’re welcome to take up any position you’re suited to, or you can choose any role you like. Passion leads to better job performance after all." Lou Chongshang said with a smile.
"Anguo, what would you like to do?" Yi Roujing promptly asked Ding Anguo, who was sitting beside her.
"Huh?" Ding Anguo was a bit dazed. Though he had been present the whole time, he was somewhat at a loss with the developments.
"What kind of job would you like?" Yi Roujing asked earnestly.
"Big sister-in-law, you still have three eldest brothers on your side. I’m still young, so let them..."
Though Ding Anguo also wanted a job, he felt the job was meant for Yi Roujing and didn’t consider himself the most eligible to take it.
"You’re not that young anymore, don’t worry, I have plans in mind." Yi Roujing looked at Ding Anguo with firm eyes, having her considerations. Ding Anguo had an education and room for growth. Her brothers were more suited to technical positions, but they would need guidance, and she thought starting as an apprentice was the best approach.
"County Magistrate Lou, my younger brother-in-law has a high school education. He was always good in school, and I believe he can handle positions in government units. Although he might not do well initially, once he adapts, he’ll certainly excel." Yi Roujing targeted government positions, knowing some factories would be phased out by the times, but government units wouldn’t. It was crucial to choose a stable ’iron rice bowl’.
In the government, Lou Chongshang pondered if there were any units or departments with budgeted slots in the county at present. That’s right, a senior member of the county government office was processing retirement, and many eyes were on this position. Several groups had already approached him.
Both sides were difficult to agree with yet also hard to outright reject. Now, if there were city files, directly placing someone in the county office would be a win-win.
"The county government office happens to have a vacancy. Would this comrade be able to handle it academically?" Lou Chongshang asked with a smile.
The county government office, wow, such an important department already? Yi Roujing was startled, quickly giving Ding Ancheng a look.
"County Magistrate Lou, I’ll do my best." Ding Anguo responded immediately.
"Good, good, Director Fang will discuss specifics with you."
