The Courtyard House: Xu Damao's Aunt is the Queen of Women

The Third Steel Rolling Mill, 4 PM.

Xu Damao went to return the projection equipment, while Ye Juan took Liu Hao to the personnel department to complete the formalities.

Liu Hao was like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, walking around and looking around, very curious about this legendary Third Steel Rolling Mill.

The roar of the machines echoed in his ears, and the air was filled with the smell of engine oil and coal smoke. Liu Hao looked at the few snow shovelers by the roadside, and couldn't help but smile.

"Liu Hao, what are you grinning about?"

Ye Juan, who was walking beside her, couldn't help but ask.

Liu Hao's smile faded, and he said seriously, "The thought of soon becoming a glorious worker fills me with excitement..."

Before Liu Hao could finish speaking, Ye Juan interrupted him impatiently.

"I don't think you've lost your memory, you're really stupid. You only graduated from vocational school; you can't be a worker, you can only be a cadre!"

"..."

Liu Hao was embarrassed; it seemed that was indeed the case.

Liu Hao, who was lying in the space, is an accounting major. Coincidentally, he also studied accounting in college, at the School of Accounting, Dongbei University of Finance and Economics.

It's a perfect match for my major.

Sigh, I guess I'll just have to be a cadre. Although workers have a higher status than cadres, cadres have a more relaxed job.

As soon as the two reached the second floor of the office building, they were greeted by someone Liu Hao knew very well: Li Huaide.

"Oh, it's Xiaoye. Is this your boyfriend?"

Li Huaide walked over to greet her warmly. It wasn't that he was interested in Ye Juan; he wouldn't dare, after all, Ye Juan's adoptive parents were the deputy director of the Xicheng District Public Security Bureau and the deputy director of the Third Textile Factory, respectively.

Ye Juan's fair and jade-like cheeks flushed instantly as she explained, "Deputy Factory Director Li, please don't talk nonsense. Liu Hao is a vocational school graduate who was just assigned to our Third Steel Rolling Mill."

Vocational school graduate?

Li Huaide looked at Liu Hao, then, as if remembering something, asked with surprise, "You're Liu Hao from the Finance and Trade Cadre School?"

Liu Hao took out his graduation certificate and job introduction letter and handed them to Li Huaide with both hands.

"Yes, Director Li, these are my identification and letter of introduction."

The address "Director Li" made Li Huaide's smile widen even further.

This young man is quite nice; he's handsome, speaks pleasantly, and is very polite.

After glancing at the documents and letter of introduction, Li Huaide smiled and said, "We've been waiting for you. Our factory's accountant, Wang, went to her parents' home in another city last week and got into a car accident. She died on the spot. The factory's finance department is overwhelmed and has to work overtime every day."

Liu Hao expressed his understanding, saying that he had read many period novels before his time travel, including fanfiction about courtyard houses, so he was quite familiar with the situation in the 1950s and 1960s.

The Third Steel Rolling Mill is a division-level unit. The finance department, including the head and deputy head, has at most 3 to 8 people, and each person holds multiple positions, such as cost accounting and taxation, and payroll and cashier. Only the core accounting positions are retained.

Among these people, there are probably some slackers who got in through connections.

Therefore, it's normal that the finance department would be overwhelmed if one person was missing.

"Factory manager, don't worry. Accountant Wang's situation is heartbreaking. I'll start work today and work overtime to catch up on all the missed work. I won't let the factory's finances fall apart."

Li Huaide was even more satisfied with Liu Hao and planned to train him properly.

The accounting position is a core position for ensuring the financial health and operational efficiency of the factory, and it must be firmly held in our hands.

"Let's skip today, it's almost time to leave work. You'll officially start tomorrow. Come on, I'll take you to complete the onboarding process and help you find a dorm room while I'm at it."

Liu Hao also had a good impression of Li Huaide. Putting aside his character, Li Huaide was actually a pretty good leader.

They won't just make empty promises; they'll actually offer you something tangible, provided you have value to them.

Li Huaide was so enthusiastic because he was an accountant who was worth winning over.

"Thank you so much, factory manager! Will this interfere with your work?"

Li Huaide waved his hand.

"Haha, no, come with me."

Ye Juan said, "Liu Hao, since Deputy Factory Director Li is personally taking you to complete the onboarding procedures, I'll head back to the Publicity Department."

"Okay, thank you so much for today. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"Don't stand on ceremony here, it was just a small favor. We're getting carried away with the meal. See you later!"

After Ye Juan finished speaking, she turned around and took light steps, climbing the stairs to the third floor.

Looking at Ye Juan's graceful figure, Liu Hao made up his mind again: I must become Xu Damao's uncle!

Although this is the Northeast version of the queen, it does not diminish her beauty at all; on the contrary, it makes her even more captivating.

Following Li Huaide to the personnel department, Wang Quankang, the department head who was leisurely drinking tea in his chair, quickly got up.

"Oh, Director Li, please have a seat!"

"I won't sit down. I brought Comrade Liu Hao, a graduate of the Finance and Trade Cadre School, to complete his onboarding procedures. Comrade Liu Hao graduated with top honors, ranking first in the accounting specialization class."

After listening to Li Huaide's introduction, Wang Quankang couldn't help but glance at Liu Hao a few more times.

He knew that the students in the accounting training class at the Finance and Trade Cadre School were selected from high school graduates who had passed the initial review and were to be assigned to the finance and trade system, with recent graduates accounting for 82% of them.

Moreover, the accounting class is a college diploma program, so Liu Hao is a legitimate college student and a top student who graduated first in his class.

Li Huaide handed Liu Hao's identification and work introduction letter to Wang Quankang, and then introduced him to Liu Hao: "Xiao Liu, this is Wang Quankang, the head of the personnel department. You can just call him Head Wang."

"Okay, Section Chief Wang, thank you for your help."

"No trouble at all, Comrade Liu Hao is truly a handsome man. I'll process your paperwork right away."

These days, the onboarding process is very quick, it only takes less than ten minutes.

I'm a cadre, receiving a salary of 33 yuan (level 26, equivalent to level 8 clerk).

The internship lasts one year, and I'll be a full-time employee next year. My salary will be just like Sha Zhu's, 37.5 yuan!

Li Huaide patted Liu Hao on the shoulder and said, "Little Liu, do a good job. As long as you show your true abilities, I'll promote you to a permanent position in three months at most."

Look what a great leader he is!

Liu Hao said solemnly, "Don't worry, Factory Director, I will never let you down."

"Haha, I like energetic young people like you. Come on, I'll take you to the housing management department and help you choose a better apartment."

Li Huaide then took Liu Hao to the Housing Management Department.

Zhong Yingcai, the deputy head of the housing management department, was one of his men. He took out a booklet and began to search through it carefully.

"No. 1, Beibingmasi Hutong, Nanluoguxiang, there's a back courtyard with a side room that hasn't been allocated yet, measuring 23 square meters!"

"No. 95, Mao'er Hutong..."

Upon hearing "Courtyard No. 95," Liu Hao's eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "Section Chief Zhong, let's choose Courtyard No. 95!"

Li Huaide smiled without saying a word, because he had just realized that Liu Hao was interested in Ye Juan.

It just so happens that Ye Juan also lives in courtyard number 95!

Zhong Yingcai asked doubtfully, "Number 95 is a back room, not very big, only about 15 square meters. Xiao Liu, are you sure you don't want the two rooms, one large and one small, in Beibingmasi?"

Rear enclosure?

The deaf old lady's neighbor?

Liu Hao didn't care about the size of the house at all. As a transmigrator with a system that made him stronger by slapping people, was a big house a problem?

No!

As long as I can be with the little queen, I'd be willing to do anything, even pitch a tent in courtyard number 95, let alone 15 square meters.

"Section Chief Chung, I'll choose the rear building at No. 95!"
