Courtyard House: They all say I'm a good person

Chapter 105 A Loud Horn Brings a Fortune

After breakfast, Yu Li, unusually, wanted to drive Shen Zhishou to the steel rolling mill.

"Honey, you really don't need to!"

"I'm telling you, I was really exhausted yesterday, but today, I feel like I have even more energy than before!"

Shen Zhishou solemnly demonstrated his prowess to Yu Li.

He stretched out one arm, held it horizontally, and lifted Yu Li, who was clinging to his arm, off the ground.

Seeing Shen Zhishou's relaxed and smiling expression, Yu Li decisively abandoned her and left with Qin Huairu.

This man is a monster!

Shen Zhishou chuckled and slowly walked towards the steel rolling mill.

Not long after, Sha Zhu caught up from behind.

"Good morning, Master He!"

"Good morning, Xiao Shen, I have a question for you!"

Sha Zhu leaned closer to Shen Zhishou and whispered, "Does your sister-in-law, Yu Haitang, have a boyfriend yet?"

"Well----"

Shen Zhishou really didn't expect that Sha Zhu would ask this question.

"Master He, well, I'm just being blunt, please don't take offense!"

Shen Zhishou felt it was best to cut off Shazhu's feelings for Haitang directly.

Yu Haitang's personality is something most people can't handle.

Foolish Pillar?

It wasn't that Shen Zhishou looked down on the other person, but rather that the two were simply not a good match.

Upon hearing Shen Zhishou's opening line, Sha Zhu, who wasn't truly stupid, decisively spoke up, saying, "Little Shen, um, don't say anything more, I understand!"

Although he said that, Shazhu was still uncomfortable. He just didn't understand what he was lacking.

"Master He, to be honest, you can't just keep your eyes on city girls. There are plenty of good girls in the countryside too!"

"No way!"

Upon hearing Shen Zhishou's words, Shazhu refused without hesitation, "Little Shen, my conditions aren't that bad, are they? Why should I only be able to marry a country girl?"

"There were no rations. You didn't know the hardships Jia Dongxu endured when you first came to the hospital, but people almost starved to death!"

"That's why I have to find a wife from the city!"

"No, Mr. He, why don't you find a wife from the countryside, get her a job after you get married, and transfer her household registration to the city? Wouldn't that be the same?"

Shen Zhishou wondered if Sha Zhu was just slow-witted.

Is it really that hard to come up with such a simple solution?

"Little Shen, you don't know this!"

"Jobs are so precious these days, they're not easy to find. Besides, if my wife goes to work too, I'll be working myself to the bone at the factory all day, and when I get home I won't even have a hot meal. What's the point of me getting married then?"

Hearing Sha Zhu's words, Shen Zhishou finally understood why Sha Zhu, despite his good qualities, couldn't find a wife.

This guy's demands are exceptionally high!

You need to have a city residency permit, and you also have to be good-looking!

Ideally, she should be unemployed and able to stay home and take care of him.

Shen Zhishou really wanted to say that someone like Sha Zhu, who had such thoughts, deserved to be controlled by Qin Huairu in the story for his entire life.

Shen Zhishou's official monthly salary is thirty yuan. On his days off, he does odd jobs and earns another thirty to fifty yuan. Even so, Yu Li still has to go to work.

Although Shen Zhishou went to work so that Yu Li would feel secure, and didn't expect her to earn that little bit of money, it at least shows one thing: a monthly salary of thirty-odd yuan is not a problem if you don't have to support a child.

But what if you're raising a child?

That silly Zhu is so utterly heartless!

Oh well, it's their life.

Shen Zhishou then stopped trying to persuade him.

You live your own life.

Sha Zhu was still rambling on and on, his thoughts filled with wonderful aspirations for the future.

Unfortunately, all Shen Zhishou could say after hearing Sha Zhu's words was, "Sha Zhu, you need to get a wife first!"

It wasn't until they reached the steel rolling mill that Sha Zhu finally finished telling Shen Zhishou about his bright future plans.

Shen Zhishou could only say, "Keep it up, dream big, anything is possible in your dreams."

Once in the workshop, Shen Zhishou continued to practice his fitter skills as usual, but the usually funny and witty Xiao Wang was no longer there!

I wonder if this kid's basic training has even started yet.

To be honest, Shen Zhishou didn't know where Wang Mingliang was going to serve in the army.

The workers in the workshop arrived earlier than usual, and their enthusiasm remained high.

Zhou Wangjia arrived on time for work and gave his routine speech.

After he finished speaking, he strolled over to Shen Zhishou's side and inquired about his physical condition, suggesting that if he felt too tired, he could rest for a day.

"Director, I'm in great health!"

Zhou Wangjia looked Shen Zhishou up and down and asked, "Aren't you tired?"

"I'm not tired at all!"

rest?

That is impossible!

Everyone else is working hard, and you're going to rest? Don't you have any shame?

Besides, he really isn't tired.

Seeing this, Zhou Wangjia breathed a slight sigh of relief and said, "If you feel unwell, remember to tell me. Don't push yourself. Work is important, but your health is more important!"

"Director, don't worry, I won't force myself!"

"I'm really fine!"

"Okay, study hard, and don't hesitate to ask questions if you don't understand anything!"

Zhou Wangjia gave some instructions and finally left.

Shen Zhishou naturally had no idea that the reason Zhou Wangjia cared so much about him was simply because Yang Zhenhua had called.

Although the war in the southwest was not a spur-of-the-moment decision and the mobilization of supplies had begun long ago, this batch of supplies was urgently needed, which is why Shen Zhishou and his team were so busy running around.

Fortunately, the task was completed on time and to a high standard.

Shen Zhishou deserves nearly half the credit for all of this.

It's not that Shen Zhishou moved half of the supplies, but rather that he set a good example.

To put it bluntly, this situation is like a cowardly soldier leading to a cowardly army!

A good leader, no matter what they do, is always outstanding.

After this incident, Shen Zhishou's name was on the radar of many leaders at the steel rolling mill.

"Isn't it a waste of such a strongman's talent to keep him in the fitter's workshop?"

When Li Huaide heard Shen Zhishou's name again, he had an idea.

Sun Deli, the logistics director whom Li Huaide had summoned, had no idea what Li Huaide was thinking this time. He could only look at the other party and tentatively ask, "How about transferring him to the transportation department?"

The Transportation Department also falls under the category of logistics.

This is Li Huaide's core base.

"Okay, go to the fitter's workshop and call Comrade Shen over. I want to talk to him and see if he's interested in moving to the transportation department!"

During this period, truck drivers needed to be strong.

Moreover, to learn how to drive, you must first learn how to repair cars.

That steering wheel is not something someone with no strength can handle.

When Sun Deli ran to the fitter's workshop and found Shen Zhishou, saying that Deputy Factory Director Li had invited him, Shen Zhishou was truly baffled.

"Director Sun, is there something you need from Factory Director Li?"

"Could you give me a few pointers?"

Shen Zhishou took a box of Hademen from his pocket and stuffed it into Sun Deli's hand.

Sun Deli smiled immediately when he saw the package of Hademen.

"Xiao Shen, Director Li heard about your great strength and wants to ask if you'd be interested in becoming a driver in the transportation department!"

Hearing this, Shen Zhishou was also somewhat dumbfounded.

Is Li Huaide trying to win him over?

These days, being a driver is a really desirable job.

The jingle goes like this: "When the horn sounds, gold flows like water; when the wheels turn, you wouldn't trade it for a county magistrate position."

Moreover, as long as you become a driver, the starting salary is forty yuan, and then you will receive a car allowance when you drive. Within the city, it is about six mao a day, while for long-distance driving across provinces, the car allowance is one yuan a day.

Moreover, drivers can make money by picking up passengers or delivering goods on the road.

Of course, being a driver is also a high-risk profession. Not to mention the possibility of being robbed on the road, accidents are not uncommon these days.

Even so, becoming a driver remains a dream for many.

Later in the story of Siheyuan, Banggeng was introduced by Shazhu to drive for the leader, and he enjoyed a period of great prestige.

To be honest, Shen Zhishou never imagined that he would one day be able to drive a car.

In fact, being a driver is undoubtedly a better career prospect than being a fitter.

Shen Zhishou has a spatial ability. As a driver, who would find out if he did some buying and selling?

Most importantly, Shen Zhishou can drive, which is much faster than learning fitter skills again.

Old Li, you're a good man!

"Xiao Shen, wanna drive?"

"Director Sun, what kind of question is that? Who doesn't want to drive?"

"That big car, is it really one I can drive?"

Shen Zhishou was truly moved.

But even if you're attracted to someone, you can't show it directly; you still need to be reserved.

Upon hearing this, Sun Deli immediately burst out laughing and said, "Little Shen, with that strength of yours, you're really suited to driving, especially big trucks!"

"After I talk to Director Li, we'll go to the transportation department. You can give it a try!"

"Then, shall we give it a try?"

"Give it a try!"

Sun Deli was in a good mood looking at Shen Zhishou's somewhat simple and honest appearance. This little Shen is quite good!
