My courtyard shelter

After the crowd dispersed.

Xu Dong counted the money in the donation box, and found a total of 3,170 yuan. Evenly distributed to the three Dabao brothers, each was just over 1,000 yuan, which was not a small amount.

Dabao was holding the donation box, Erbao and Xiaobao were on the left and right, and Niuniu was following behind. The four of them happily went to Teacher Yao to hand over the money.

Xu Dong took his mobile phone and took a picture of the payment.

After paying the money, he took the children for a brief stroll, and then the group went home. There were so many people coming and going in the big square, and he was afraid that the little ones would get lost.

Moreover, there was nothing good to buy on site. Most of them were second-hand clothes, second-hand toys, and children's "paintings" and handicrafts.

For example, Niuniu.

However, Xu's mother did not go back with her because she was busy chatting with the old friends. The Coco sisters also stayed behind. They preferred the fun and could accompany their grandma by the way.

"Lao Zhang, is your bakery still hiring?"

After some compliments, the old guys finally showed their "fox tail". They were all old Yanjing people, and they were not really short of jobs, they were just short of food.

Fifteen pounds of bread crumbs per month is quite considerable.

Especially in the current environment, an extra kilogram of food is good. Although people in the capital will not really starve to death, no one has many "poor" relatives.

Could it be that he really stood idly by and did nothing to save his life?

Wang Xiujuan said in surprise: "Lao Fu, I remember that your son and daughter are both working in the company, and several juniors are still studying. Who can you help introduce jobs to?"

"No one, just my boss." Lao Fu sighed.

"Isn't your boss the director of Fantasy Group?"

Fantasy Group is a well-established IT company in China and the global leader in PCs. Regardless of the company's size or benefits, they are actually pretty good.

"Oh, don't mention it. Their company has been suspended for almost more than a year. Now it is equivalent to a layoff without pay. It is not an option to stay like this."

"That's not true. Is the Fantasy Group so miserable?"

"Why not? Their company originally sold computers. Now the business can't continue, and there is no way to transform. They can only hang on. I'm not optimistic about it anyway."

Lao Fu was helpless.

Xu’s mother looked a little embarrassed:

"Lao Fu, let me tell you the truth, I can't get involved in the leadership position of the bread factory. Your boss is a big director, so he can't come to my factory as a general worker, right?"

"A general worker is a general worker. I will ask him to report to your bread factory tomorrow."

"Uh, Lao Fu, are you not crazy?" Xu Ma said in shock.

"I'm not crazy, and I'm not afraid of your jokes. Our family has not had enough food rations since last month. Several children are often screaming from hunger. If we don't get some food back, we will really have trouble getting through this day."

As soon as these words came out, many people said that their own situation was similar.

Wang Xiujuan asked curiously: "Lao Fu, didn't you stock up on food in advance?"

"Why didn't you stock up? I stocked up hundreds of kilograms!"

"What about the food?"

"Well, when the Fantasy Group laid off employees, the boss spent half of it looking for connections, and the remaining half just lasted until the beginning of the year. Now our family is a veritable 'moonlight clan'."

"Moonlight clan" is a hot term that has become popular recently. It refers to those families who have no food stored at home and rely entirely on food cards to survive.

"I'm confused. Food is so tight, how can we just 'waste' it casually!" Wang Xiujuan lamented.

"Who said it wasn't? I regret it so much now."

Lao Fu slapped his thighs hard several times, but unfortunately there wasn't much meat on his thighs, so he didn't hear any snapping sounds.

Xu Ma nodded. It seemed that she had to help regardless of whether she was busy or not, so she said:

"Lao Fu, our old factory is not short of people now. If you want to go, you can only go to the new factory, which is over Dayang Road."

"Dayang Road?"

"It's the original Dayang Road Wholesale Market."

Wang Xiujuan explained helpfully, "If you ask me, it's better to go to the new factory! The factory there is huge. Your boss has been the director at least, and he might even be able to become the manager!"

"I don't dare think about it as a manager. I'll be satisfied if I can be a director again."

"Then let's make an agreement. When our old Xu comes back in the evening, I will tell him for you. I will let you know if there is any news."

"Thank you, Lao Zhang."

"You're welcome."

Seeing that the matter was completed, the others suddenly became excited, and everyone said:

"Lao Zhang, our family..."

"And me, Lao Zhang, what's the relationship between the two of us..."

Xu Ma's head was as big as an ox's for a moment, so she had to clap her hands a few times. After everyone calmed down, she told her bottom line.

"Everyone is having difficulties in life. You all know what my character is, Lao Zhang. I am not the kind of person who is ruthless.

There is no problem in entering our factory, but it must be like Lao Fu’s. It is limited to one’s own family, and each family has a maximum of two places. "

Wang Xiujuan quickly echoed: "Lao Zhang is also doing it for everyone's benefit. We just keep the job opportunities for ourselves. If we don't use them now, it doesn't mean we won't use them in the future.

To put it bluntly, under the current situation, everyone should just clear the door and leave others alone. "

"That's true." Someone immediately agreed.

"Old Zhang is righteous!"

However, there were also a few people who looked unhappy, but they didn't say anything. They just annoyed the other party for no reason, and they were the ones who suffered losses in the end.

Xu Ma took the opportunity to call the two sisters to her side.

"If any of you want to work in the factory, you can tell them and register the list first. I will notify you one by one when things are done."

This group of old friends has only a dozen people at most, and they don't take up many recruitment quotas. In fact, Xu Ma can make the decision on this matter.

The reason for such a toss is understood by those who know.

In less than five minutes, the list was registered. There were a total of 18 people, of which 13 were women and only 5 were men.

...

After returning from the square, Huang Yuefen didn't care about going home, but knocked on the door of her future in-laws.

"Dong Dong Dong..."

"Auntie Huang, why are you here?"

The one who opened the door was Su Tong, Huang Yuefen's future daughter-in-law. The young couple had been in love for three years, but because of the house, they couldn't get married.

This is also Huang Yuefen's biggest worry.

"Auntie has something to talk to you about. Are your parents home?"

"At home, Auntie Huang, come in!"

After some politeness, Huang Yuefen didn't say any more nonsense, but went straight to the point.

"Su Tong, Auntie currently has a good job opportunity. You haven't found a job yet, do you want to try it?"

"Lao Huang, what kind of job is it?" Su's mother asked.

"Working in a bakery."

Su's mother frowned: "How much is the monthly salary?"

Although it is tiring to work in a factory, it is difficult to find a job nowadays, especially jobs suitable for women, which are even fewer, so working in a factory is not unacceptable.

"About 6,000 yuan."
