My Courtyard Refuge

New Colleagues

“I’m from here, so I’ll tell you my experience today. Marrying a daughter-in-law is not only based on appearance, but also on character. Beauty really can’t be eaten as a meal. Virtuousness is more important than beauty. You will understand in the future.”

Xu Dong saw a lot of Lao Yan in his previous life, so he felt it.

Xiao Wang smiled wryly and said, “We didn’t expect a beautiful wife. The key is that we can’t find a common one. The three of us don’t have a house or a car, and we don’t know when we can get married.”

“What’s the rush, young man? At worst, wait for two more years. There will be bread, and so will my wife.”

Xu Dong is not just talking nonsense. By next year, the situation around Daxia will deteriorate rapidly, and there will be a lot of women crying and wanting to marry Daxia.

Although Daxia’s life is actually not very good, at least he still stutters. Whether he can persevere depends entirely on personal hard work and luck.

People like Xu Dong who are willing to work hard and have good health can basically get through the most difficult first few years.

Xiao Wang shook his head secretly, Zi is not a single dog, knowing the suffering of being single, the thinking of the rich is really different from theirs.

The whole morning passed while the four of them were chatting and spanking, and soon it was lunch time.

Xiao Wang took the initiative to say: “Brother Xu, you go to eat first, I will stay and watch the house.”

“Okay, we’ll come back and replace you when we’re done eating.” Xu Dong nodded.

Xiao Cheng and Xiao Huang brought Xu Dong to the company cafeteria, Xiao Cheng pointed to the door and said, “Brother Xu, the cafeteria is in front of you, hurry up and go in!”

“Aren’t you with me?” Xu Dong asked in surprise.

Xiao Cheng shook his head and explained: “Our food is outsourced, and it is in the small cafeteria next door, and the food standards are different on both sides.”

Xu Dong was a little speechless. It’s fine if he doesn’t “equal pay for equal work”, but he can’t even afford food.

“Okay then, go and eat quickly, don’t come and wait for me later, I’m going back to the office to get something.”

“understood.”

Xu Dong sighed, and then walked into the company cafeteria. The cafeteria is very spacious, roughly the same as the cafeteria in a university, and there are already many employees eating in it.

A meal card is required to eat in the cafeteria. Xu Dong directly charged 2,000 yuan to the meal card when going through the entry procedures.

At that time, Section Chief Li even mentioned one more thing, saying that the money was enough for him to live for a year.

In fact, the power company has meal subsidies, but the money is counted into the salary. Even for a newcomer like Xu Dong, the monthly meal allowance is less than 2,000 yuan.

It’s no wonder that everyone is flocking to the giants of state-owned enterprises, the benefits are really good.

After taking the dinner plate, Xu Dong didn’t order the food directly, but went to each window to look one by one.

Overall, the standard of food is pretty good. Even in the current situation, there are quite a few meat dishes here, although most of them are fish.

Especially seafood, which is rich in variety.

“One serving of prawns, one serving of braised fish, one serving of shredded pork with green peppers, and more…”

Xu Dong started to order, but before he finished speaking, he was stopped by the elder sister who ordered the food, and the other party pointed to the notice board posted beside him:

“Each person is limited to twoDirty! ”

Old Xu Dong blushed, and hurriedly stated that he was a new employee, then ordered the first two dishes, and finally ordered a cold cucumber.

As for rice and soup, they are provided for free.

This was Xu Dong’s first lunch in the company, and he spent a total of 12 yuan, which was quite affordable.

Seeing Xu Dong walking by with a plate, Section Chief Li quickly waved: “Xiao Xu, this way!”

Xu Dong heard it, and trotted over quickly, and sat next to Section Chief Li.

Section Chief Li swallowed the last mouthful of rice, then took a sip of soup from the bowl, and asked, “How is it, are you still used to staying at the North Gate?”

“I’m used to it, Xiao Wang and the others are pretty good.”

“Just get used to it. Don’t be in a hurry to go back to the north gate after eating. Go back to the office. Everyone wants to meet you when they hear that a new colleague has arrived.” Section Chief Li explained.

“Understood, I’ll go over later.” Xu Dong took a bite of the rice.

Section Chief Li wiped his mouth with a tissue, stood up and said, “Eat slowly, I’ll go back first.”

“Uncle Li, wait a minute.” Xu Dong said suddenly.

“What’s wrong?”

“Hey, Uncle Li, don’t leave after get off work, I have prepared a treat for you.” Xu Dong whispered.

“It’s outrageous, our company ordered that giving gifts is prohibited, please don’t let me make a mistake.” Chief Li pretended to be angry and said in a low voice.

Xu Dong quickly argued: “It’s not a gift, just some souvenirs, which are not worth a lot of money. You see, I brought them here, so you can’t let me take them back?”

Section Chief Li coughed lightly, and said with a straight face: “Forget it this time, let’s not make an example next time.”

“Understood, then I’ll find you in the office after get off work.”

…

After lunch, Xu Dong immediately walked towards the office.

These regular workers have a collective office of about 50 square meters next to the monitoring room, and Xu Dong is naturally assigned a desk.

As soon as he entered the office, he was surrounded by three female colleagues.

“You are Xu Dong, right?”

Xu Dong nodded.

“The big Benz in the parking lot is also yours, right?”

“That’s right, it’s mine. I just bought it last year.” Xu Dong replied casually.

“You are so rich, why do you still come to be a security guard?” A young female colleague asked on the spot.

Xu Dong smiled awkwardly. This question is not easy to answer. Fortunately, Section Chief Li just came out to help him when he heard the movement.

“Xiang Xin, what are you doing, don’t bully your new colleagues.”

Xiang Xin immediately became honest, and Xu Dong quickly cast a grateful look at Section Chief Li.

Section Chief Li called everyone together, patted Xu Dong on the shoulder and introduced: “This is the new colleague, Xu Dong, who is currently serving as the deputy captain at the North Gate. Everyone welcomes the new colleague.”

“Papa…”

Next, Section Chief Li introduced the old employees to Xu Dong one by one. Xu Dong shook hands with each of them, exchanged contact information, and was finally drawn into the group of colleagues in the security department.

===Section 29===

“Okay, everyone knows each other. Xu Dong, please express your opinion. When is the treat? This is an old tradition in our security department.” Section Chief Li joked with a smile.

Xu Dong thought for a while and suggested:

“I can’t eat anything delicious outside now, maybe it’s better than our cafeteria! How about this, I will bring more snacks tomorrow, and use snacks instead of treats, what do you think?”

The reason why Xu Dong didn’t want to treat guests was because he was afraid of trouble; secondly, due to the influence of his previous life, he hated any waste of food.

Xiang Xin was the first to raise her hands in favor, followed by the other two female colleagues. After all, snacks are more attractive to them.

As for the male colleagues, it doesn’t matter, anyway, treats are fine, snacks are also fine, as long as they don’t miss their portion.

So the matter was decided in this way. Xu Dong can use snacks instead of treats, but there are also requirements for the number of snacks, and the types of snacks cannot be less than 10.
