August 13, 21.

It's another nice sunny day.

Lai Xiaoni, who had left Yangon long ago, was traveling alone in Taunggyi City.

At the dock by the river, various mechanical cranes are loading and unloading goods and containers. Not far away is the Ruiniang Town Dam.

After expansion, Taunggyi City has now become a large city with a population of 1.37 million, surrounded by 8 satellite cities.

At first, she thought Hongsawady was more developed than Yangon, but what she saw along the way opened Lai Xiaoni's eyes and changed her previous stereotype.

The port is only about 2.3 kilometers away from the dam. The city of Ruiniang Town is built on a relatively high platform, with a gap of about 80 to 90 meters from the port area. Even if the dam breaks, the safety of the residential area is not necessary. Doubtful.

The dining table on the river side of the riverside tea restaurant offers a sweeping view of the dam, pumped energy storage reservoir, and port.

Lai Xiaoni, who has lived in Lingnan Province for a period of time, is relatively accustomed to the climate here in Taunggyi.

"Guest, your refreshments." The middle-aged waitress smiled and handed her rice rolls, Cantonese-style siomai, and carrot cakes.

Lai Xiaoni picked up the teacup: "Is the eldest sister also Chinese?"

"Haha... Yes, I immigrated here with my son. My daughter is studying at Taunggyi Medical College, so I transferred here to work." Li Suqin replied with a smile.

"Are you used to living here?"

Li Suqin smiled and replied: "It's very good. There are many Chinese here in Taunggyi. You can use it with ease. If you need anything, just call me."

After saying that, she pushed the dining cart to serve another table.

Lai Xiaoni took a sip of oolong tea: "Adjustment? Is it the same as university adjustment?"

At the next table, a young woman wearing a traditional hairpin with a bulging belly was talking to another young man who seemed to be her husband.

When the pot-bellied young woman heard Lai Xiaoni's Mandarin, she turned around with a smile and said, "Transfer means moving family members from other positions to positions that facilitate family reunion due to family or work reasons. It is usually more suitable for housewives."

"I see, is my sister also Chinese? My name is Lai Xiaoni, and I came to Taunggyi for tourism."

"Just call me Xinxin. This is my husband Maang Heshui." Fang Xinxin introduced with a smile.

Maang Heshui nodded sheepishly. Although he could speak Mandarin, he still didn't like talking to strange women, especially when his wife was around.

"Sister Xinxin is also an employee of Qingye, right?"

"I work as an airport receptionist at Qingye Airlines, and my husband works as a forklift driver at the airport." Fang Xinxin answered, stroking her belly gently.

Recalling her experiences over the past year and a half, Fang Xinxin felt like she was in another world.

With the help of her cousin Fang Xinwu, she came to Hongsawady for AIDS treatment and stayed here for more than a month.

After more than a month of getting along with her, and with Maung Heshui's attentive care, her depressed mood recovered somewhat.

But there is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever.

Fang Xinxin returned to her hometown in China. Due to her previous illness, she was already notorious in her hometown. She didn't want to embarrass her parents anymore, so she finally chose to work in Yangcheng.

However, it has been difficult to find jobs in Yangcheng in the past two years. She stayed in Yangcheng for more than three months and failed to find a suitable job.

In the end, Maung He Shui, who had been keeping in touch with her online, introduced her to Hongsawady as the front desk of the airport.

Fang Xinxin, who felt that she couldn't hold her head high in her hometown, seemed to want to change a place and start over, so she came to Taunggyi.

At that time, Maung Heshui was no longer working for Fang Xinwu, but was looking for a job driving a forklift at the airport.

After going back and forth, Fang Xinxin and Maung Heshui came together.

When she recalled this experience, she couldn't help but smile. She felt that she trusted others too easily. Fortunately, Maung Heshui was okay.

After Lai Xiaoni ate a siomai, she asked curiously: "Will pregnancy be inconvenient for work?"

"No! The company doesn't mind. If you're pregnant, you usually have 18 months of maternity leave. The basic salary and five social insurances and one housing fund are paid as usual."

"so good?"

Fang Xinxin smiled and shook her head: "This is a mandatory rule of the company. You can't stop thinking about it. In addition, there are various subsidies during maternity leave, including milk powder, diapers, prenatal check-ups, production, baby care, etc. You can get 5 Zhe, if Xiaoni can find a job in the three major groups, then she won’t have to worry too much about these problems in the future."

"I am majoring in finance. I can only find a job in a bank, which is probably more difficult." Lai Xiaoni spread her hands pretending to be helpless.

Fang Xinxin also saw that the other party was not interested in this, so she changed the topic: "Xiao Ni, are you here to travel alone?"

"Well, my dad works in Yangon."

"You are so bold. Foreigners generally don't go deep into Shan State and Kachin State. It used to be a chaotic area."

Lai Xiaoni asked curiously: "Was it really chaotic here before? I read some introductions on the Internet, and it's always a bit unbelievable."

"My husband and my cousin have been working here for several years and are quite familiar with the situation here. Shan State used to be really chaotic. In the past few years, the three major groups and the government have made great efforts to bring this place into full control." Improve public security."

Lai Xiaoni took another look at Li Suqin, who was busy serving food: "Are there many Chinese immigrants here?"

"Indeed, there are quite a few. Many of them are family members of technicians. The waiter Li who was chatting with you just now has her son working at an aircraft factory and her daughter studying at Taunggyi Medical College. She couldn't worry about her daughter, so she applied for a job transfer to Taunggyi. ." Fang Xinxin said as she put the cream sandwich she didn't like to eat to her husband.

"Is it easy to apply for this kind of adjustment?" Lai Xiaoni felt that Qingye Group was very humane.

Fang Xinxin smiled and nodded: "For non-technical positions and management positions, as long as the reason is reasonable, the company will usually help solve the problem. Waiter positions like Aunt Li are easy to transfer."

After hearing this explanation, Lai Xiaoni felt much better about the Qingye Group.

Her parents had to live apart for a long time due to work reasons. If her parents' generation were not more tolerant and less impetuous like the younger generation, this long-term separation would have caused problems long ago.

Obviously the Qingye Group has seen this problem, so it is trying to find ways to improve the problem of couples living apart in different places for a long time.

The improvement plan is reasonable job adjustments.

Normally, if both husband and wife are employees of Qingye Group, the one with a lower position and lower income will accommodate the other and transfer his position.

According to Qingye Group's internal data, when a husband and wife have two employees, it is usually the woman who accommodates the man.

This is also related to men’s dominant position in income and positions.

According to internal data, in many families where both husband and wife are employees, the woman’s income is often less than 50% of the man’s.

Especially if a female employee becomes pregnant after one or two years of marriage, the period of pregnancy will not be included in the seniority of the female employee, which will affect the promotion of the employee's level.

Of course, many female employees actually don’t care about length of service and level.

After all, in the eyes of many female employees, the fact that the company allows female employees to take maternity leave is a huge benefit.

If it weren't for the fact that some female employees could only have two children due to caesarean section and physical condition, they actually wouldn't mind having more.

After all, each maternity leave is 18 months, and the company pays a basic salary and maternity leave subsidy. Even for the lowest-level employees, the monthly basic salary is 500 gold yuan.
