She reclaimed her family property and broke off her engagement to go to the countryside.

Chapter 200 A Happy Temporary Purchasing Agent

"Director Wang, it must be dozens of kilograms a day."

But I can't come every day, and the weather is getting cold.

How about this: from now on, whenever I come over, I'll bring you a basketful, the more the merrier.

Upon hearing this, the other party became somewhat reluctant.

Organizations like theirs also have performance evaluations, and certain requirements must be met every month, every quarter, and every year.

This is a lucrative job, incredibly lucrative, and many people are eyeing it!
If you can achieve results, that can be considered a way to solidify your position.

These off-season vegetables are one of the special features.

Every state-run restaurant is allowed to have its own purchasing agent.

Whether it's collecting supplies in the countryside or through other means, as long as we can get the supplies, that's good.

"Business has been good these past few days, so it's best to have enough ingredients on hand every day."

Well, that's too superficial.

"Haha, Director Wang, I think it's actually a good thing that it's not enough."

His calm and composed attitude made the other party unable to resist asking for his advice.

"Young comrade, what do you mean by this?"

"It's very simple!"

Think about it, that's how food works. Food out of season is precious because it's unavailable.

But if you have enough supplies here, you can eat whenever you want.

Then what's the point of going out of season like this?

Director Wang's eyes lit up; this was something he hadn't expected.

"If that's the case, then it's because there's not enough, which is why people are always thinking about it."

Ji Shuyin blinked her big eyes and nodded mysteriously.

"What you can't have always stirs your heart; the less something you have, the more you crave it, and the more eager you will be to pursue it."

We can also take this opportunity to sell some other things, a side sale, and that'll do the trick.

The scarcity marketing strategy works for any product that sells well.

"good."

Director Wang slammed his hand on the table, his eyebrows dancing with excitement.

"Oh my, you young comrade, you're really quick-witted."

I've learned a lot today.

"No, no, I was just saying it offhand."

Ji Shuyin remained humble and did not take credit for anything.

"Actually, I'm very curious. In this freezing cold, in our Northeast, where nothing grows, where did you get so many fresh vegetables?"

If it were radishes and cabbages, I could understand it, since they can be stored.

Bamboo shoots and celery are also understandable, as they are both cold-resistant.

But he couldn't figure out how cucumbers, those vegetables that grow in summer and autumn and can't survive the winter, were grown.

"With enough determination, none of these things are a problem."

Also, I'll have some eggplants, tomatoes, and leafy greens later on. Would you consider that?

Director Wang stood up abruptly, even doubting whether he had misheard.

"Is what you said true?"

"Really, I never make things up."

"Okay, okay, just send it over, send as much as you can."

"Row."

These kinds of things can be sold for more money, which is the benefit of this season.

When the weather gets warmer, there will be no shortage of vegetables everywhere.

The more items you have, the cheaper they become.

"By the way, young comrade, what's your name?"

They've already dealt with her twice, but they still haven't asked her name.

Since we're going to have a long-term partnership, we still need to get to know each other better.

"My name is Ji Shuyin. Director Wang, you can call me whatever you like."

As a junior, one should still be polite.

"Good, Comrade Ji, I didn't expect you to be so capable at such a young age."

Our state-run restaurant has a procurement list; I wonder if you'd be interested?

"Huh?" This time, it was Ji Shuyin's turn to be dumbfounded.

"Director Wang, what do you mean by this?"

The other party was quite satisfied with her reaction.

"It's very simple, I think your supplies are very special."

We'd like to hire you as our purchasing agent, but there are targets all year round, not just in winter.

I believe you can do it.

She received a meaningful look, and Ji Shuyin still found it hard to believe; this was like a windfall.

Director Wang looked at her and continued, "Of course, this procurement also means securing a place on the country's food supply."

Not only will you receive payment for the supplies, but you'll also get a monthly salary of thirty-six yuan, and additional bonuses for completing tasks.

Good heavens, it's ironic that I couldn't find a job in my hometown but managed to get one here.

"Director Wang, thank you for your kindness."

I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you.

Director Wang was also somewhat puzzled by this, and his face immediately fell.

"Comrade Ji, this is a position that many people would kill for, and you're not interested?"

"No, no, I am willing."

Well, let me tell you the truth.

I'm a sent-down youth who came to the countryside; I can't hold a position here, otherwise it would cause quite a problem.

Unexpectedly, she had this other identity.

"I see, this is indeed a bit troublesome."

However, it's not entirely hopeless.

"How to say?"

Of course she wanted this job; once it was confirmed, she could openly take out those supplies.

“You can come and work for our restaurant as an intern. It’s not a secure job, but it’s a guarantee for you.”

"Can this still happen?"

"Yes, but it's temporary, and the benefits will be much less."

It's certainly not as good as a long-term job, but she's very content, and she doesn't necessarily need this job.

Temporary arrangements, on the contrary, offer greater flexibility.

“Great, Director Wang, I’m willing to be the temporary purchasing agent here.”

"Okay, okay, I knew I hadn't misjudged you."

"Comrade Xiao Ji, welcome to our state-run restaurant family."

She suddenly felt very formal, so she quickly stood up and shook hands with the other person.

……

After leaving the state-run restaurant, Ji Shuyin placed the signed consent form in her spatial storage.

This thing is like a contract.

From now on, I will be considered a public servant, even if it's temporary, but it feels different.

Feeling good, I prepared to go home.

It's getting colder these past few days. She wore that ginger-yellow cotton-padded coat that she sent to her parents, but she doesn't know if they received it.

I'll still have to call and ask later.

Thinking about it all the way, we arrived at the Liushuyazi Production Team.

She actually felt a sense of belonging here.

As soon as I got home, I saw Liu Qingyu.

She came to see me, so I guess she has something to say.

"Qingyu, what's wrong?"

The other person had clearly been waiting for a while; their hands were getting cold.

"Shuyin, I have good news that will make you happy."

She responded with a smile, but without much of a reaction.

He opened the door and spoke at the same time.

"Did Tang Weiyu do something?"

She couldn't think of anything else.
