It wasn't until dinner time that Jiang Yue jumped out of his working state.
On his eucalyptus, a thick stack of documents has appeared.
Going to Yuncheng is just a decision, but there is a lot of work to be done behind it. Jiang Yue spent the past afternoon focusing on studying the current situation of Yuncheng, the layout of the city, and the topography of the road from here to Yuncheng.
wait.
Of course, Jiang Yue would naturally have to sort out and research a lot of information related to the strange tree.
There was a lot of this kind of information in the joint command team, and the level was much richer than the information Director Liao had given him before.
Dinner was still at the same place downstairs, and Star City's team still went out as a group.
But this time when he went downstairs, Jiang Yue clearly felt that the situation was different.
Every group of people I met on the road seemed to have warm smiles on their faces. Even if they had a normal relationship with them or even ignored their team, they all seemed to be trying to express goodwill, as if the indifference in the past was just a game.
Just a misunderstanding.
"Hello, Director Jiang."
"Young Master, you are really young and promising, and you will definitely have a bright future."
"At a young age and ranked among the top six directors, Director Jiang is definitely the pride of our Central and South Region."
"Yes, Director Jiang should take more care of our own people during this operation."
"Master Director, if you have any news, please share it as soon as possible."
It’s not surprising that the crowd showed their hospitality in various ways.
People here in Star City naturally enjoyed this feeling very much when they saw the crowd kneeling down and licking each other. Especially those guys who were unruly and unruly earlier, now they are smiling when they see them. This feeling of satisfaction is definitely very relieving.
.
At the dinner table, the Star City team was even more excited and the atmosphere was very good.
Jiang Yue did not pour cold water on everyone.
It has made everyone feel aggrieved for so many days. It is rare to feel proud and happy, and it also makes everyone feel refreshed. Anyway, we will leave here soon and go to Yuncheng.
Halfway through the meal, the team from Hongcheng also came downstairs to eat. Xiong Yan, who was taking the lead, saw Jiang Yue and greeted him even more exaggeratedly.
As if he and Jiang Yue had been friends for many years, he gave Jiang Yue a bear hug, patted Jiang Yue's shoulder and laughed, "Now it's time to call you the director. What do you think of me, old bear? I know you are like this
This guy is different from everyone else. How about it? For the sake of my flattery early in the morning, you can arrange a good job for me, brother. Is that okay?"
Xiong Yan had a half-joking tone.
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "When you talk about a good job, do you mean a job that is lazy and fishy, or a job that makes a difference?"
Xiong Yan glared: "My old Xiong came to this damn place from Hongcheng just to catch fish, so I don't want to waste my time. Of course it's a job that can make a difference. Of course, this kind of contribution must be visible to everyone. Otherwise, we can keep silent.
Being a screw is not worthwhile. Brother, you won't arrange such a tricky job for me, right?"
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "It's too early to say this now. If we make great achievements, things will be easier to handle."
Xiong Yan chuckled and said: "I'm just waiting for your words. Don't turn your back and deny it when the time comes. It must be a job that can make a difference."
It can be seen that this guy is determined to make great achievements and is someone who really wants to take advantage of this opportunity to climb up.
From Jiang Yue's perspective, he hopes there are more people like this.
While we were eating, a few more dishes were added to the two tables in Star City.
These dishes are not available on other tables.
This obvious specialness made Jiang Yue frown slightly.
If there was no one else here, Jiang Yue wouldn't say anything if he wanted to add some extra dishes to them. Their team in Star City was not worthy of adding some extra dishes.
But with so many people here, let alone a big move like adding a few more dishes, even adding an extra bottle of drink might be remembered by others.
Isn’t this a special act in public?
Is it because Jiang Yue was elected as the executive director that he should be given a small chance?
Liao Chu in the distance seemed to have been silently paying attention to Jiang Yue's reaction. Seeing Jiang Yue's somewhat displeased look, he quickly trotted over.
He said in a voice that did not avoid others: "Director Jiang, this is Director Zhou Yuanhang's intention. Of course, these dishes are paid for by him personally and will not enter the public account."
This means that this is just a private behavior, and there is no false pretense for personal gain.
Others may have ideas, but they are completely unnecessary.
If someone pays for it privately, it is a private matter for whom they are willing to add food to.
Jiang Yue heard that Zhou Yuanhang personally paid for it. Although he felt it was unnecessary, he did not get angry. Instead, he smiled calmly and said: "Liao Chu, let's not do this next time. Cannibals are short-sighted. Besides, how many more additions will be made to our team in Star City?"
I still have money for the dishes, so I really don’t need Director Zhou to spend the money himself.”
Liao Chu hurriedly smiled and said: "That's right, that's right. But this time you and these friends come to our Western Region, we can't let you pay for it yourself. Otherwise, where will our host's face be?"
Jiang Yue didn't intend to dwell on such a trivial matter: "Thank you, Director Zhou, for me."
"Yes, please use it slowly."
Seeing that Director Liao was about to leave respectfully, Jiang Yue stopped him, pulled up a chair, and said, "Chief Liao, sit down. I have been honored by your hospitality these past few days. You have served us in front of us and solved a lot of our worries. Thank you for your hard work."
Why don't we, brothers, have a drink?"
Director Liao hurriedly said: "It's all within my scope, I don't dare to take it seriously."
But since Jiang Yue invited him, Director Liao couldn't refuse without hesitation. It just so happened that he also wanted to see Jiang Yue for something.
"I'll have a few drinks with the chairman."
Jiang Yue quite admired Director Liao, so the two of them exchanged glasses and drank a few glasses.
Many people in the Star City team were gradually full and quickly put down their bowls.
Director Liao accepted the request and did not have the nerve to sit down any longer: "Mr. Director, I happen to have something to report to you. If it's convenient, I'll pay you a visit in your room later."
"Okay, see you later."
After drinking and eating, Jiang Yue didn't stay down there any longer and returned to his room to continue working.
About half an hour later, Director Liao knocked on the door.
After entering the room and saying a few polite words, Jiang Yue smiled and said: "Liao Chu, there's no one else here, so don't be so reserved. After all, I'm just a plain-headed commoner, and you are the great director. What's so good about you?
Restricted?"
Liao Chu smiled sheepishly: "Master Director, this is to comfort me. My position as director may still be of some use in the Sunshine Era. In the Strange Era, it is just a title, and it won't scare anyone."
"That's not entirely true. Compared to real ordinary people, Director Liao can actually be considered a lucky person in strange times."
Liao Chu nodded thoughtfully. If you think about it this way, compared to those humans who were swallowed up by the disaster at the beginning of the strangeness, they were indeed relatively lucky.
At least so far, I have no worries about food and clothing, the places I visit are relatively high-end, and the people I come into contact with are basically of a higher level.
"Liao Chu, do you have something serious to do with me? Director Zhou sent you here?"
Liao Chu shook his head and said: "Director Zhou asked me to entertain you well, but this time I came here to see you personally."
"Oh? Personal matter?"
Liao Chu thought about it carefully, his eyes were a little embarrassed, but he still nodded: "It can be regarded as half public and half private."
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "There is something like this, let's talk about it. With our friendship these days, Liao Chu doesn't have to hesitate, he can just say it openly."
"I hope to follow the director." Liao Chu held it back for a while, and finally went straight to the topic and said it. He looked at Jiang Yue expectantly.
"Follow me?" Jiang Yue was startled, "This is the territory of your Western Region. I am just an ordinary citizen, at most a guest soldier. With Liao Chu's status, there is no way he can do this with me.
In other words, does Liao Chu think that I can carry you?"
Liao Chu said seriously: "I know all this. What I mean is that I want to work with the director in the next Tianfa operation. Whether it is a staff officer, a combat position, or a logistics job, I am willing to follow.
Sir, let’s do this together.”
"Is this in line with the rules?" Liao Chu is just a receptionist and an official of the Western Frontier Region. Does it make sense to follow Jiang Yue because of his status?
"Of course it's in line with the rules! You are now a core member of the joint command team. In today's Western Frontier Region, the joint command team plays a very important role. Dealing with the strange tree is the top priority of the Western Frontier Region now. The joint command team
The authority of the group is extremely high. As long as the troops and people are mobilized, as long as there is an order, everyone must carry it out seriously. Director Jiang may not have adapted to this identity and status yet. You will know later that all kinds of people who come to you for activities will soon be
More and more."
Director Liao told the truth.
Will more people come to me for activities?
Jiang Yue thought of the previous meal. Those people, including Xiong Yan, were all kinds of attentive. It seemed like this was what happened.
"Liao Chu, you are a receptionist. This kind of fighting should not be within your job responsibilities. Why do you take the initiative to wade into the muddy water? Most people probably don't have time to hide, right?"
Thinking about the first meeting of the joint command team, two of the executive directors clearly wanted to avoid these drudgery tasks.
Liao Chu said sternly: "The Western Frontier Region is under a special situation now, and all remuneration will be linked to individual performance. If you participate in Operation Tianfa, especially if you are on the front line of the battle, your remuneration will be three times higher than that of ordinary personnel, and you will also be given priority for promotion in the future. Use it. It may be a bit vague to talk about future promotions now, but the salary is real. The current salary of ordinary personnel is, at most, barely enough to ensure that their families can have enough food and clothing, and materials are very expensive and scarce. "
"Are even people at your level treated so badly?"
"The Western Frontier Region is vast, but it is not a particularly large grain-producing area. It was originally developed in animal husbandry, tourism, etc. Nowadays, all aspects of materials related to food, clothing, housing and transportation are relatively expensive. Don't say At my level, even those with a higher level than me are not living a comfortable life at all."
The situation in the Western Frontier Region indeed looks worse than imagined.
At least in the Central and South Region, I have never heard of people at the division level having to make ends meet.
"So, if you follow me and join the Tianfa Operation Team, you can get three times the benefits?"
"Yes, this selfishness makes you laugh. In this way, not only will the family have enough food and warm clothes, but also some extra supplies can be guaranteed. For example, some of my dad's medicines for chronic diseases..."
It's all about living, not being embarrassed.
"Liao Chu, you have to think carefully, this job is not easy, it may even be..."
"It's possible to sacrifice, right?" Director Liao smiled bitterly. "Throughout the strange era, I have seen too many lives and deaths. It would be false to say that I am not afraid at all. But to say that I have no consciousness at all, That’s also false.”
There was a sense of calm understanding in Director Liao's tone.
"The current situation is obvious. If the West Frontier Region cannot defeat the Weird Tree, no matter whether it is the small family or everyone, everyone will die in the end. Die sooner, die later, and eventually die."
"If I have to die in the end, I would rather let my family live a better life before I die."
Jiang Yue was silent. Director Liao's thoughts were not surprising.
"Okay, Liao Chu, since you have figured it out, I won't advise you. Just follow me. It just so happens that I also need a group of people. It's best for someone like you who is down-to-earth and willing to work, and who doesn't cheat or cheat. They are talents with certain connections and coordination abilities in all aspects. I would like to recommend a few more.”
Liao Chu was surprised: "You need a lot of manpower?"
"Yes, but it's more reliable. Don't come here as soon as possible for those sly people. If they come, I will be kicked away."
"Don't worry, I want to recommend him. He must be a very reliable and down-to-earth person." Liao Chu was overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, not only did I join Jiang Yue's camp as I wished, but I was also qualified to recommend others. This was a huge favor.
He was already thinking about which reliable people he should recommend.
At this time, any quota is precious. Recommend it to a friend, and your friend will be very grateful.
However, he soon remembered something.
"By the way, Sir Director, I suddenly remembered something."
"What?"
"It has something to do with the Hengcheng team. There seems to be internal strife in the Hengcheng team. The He Jin who fought with you before seems to have left the Hengcheng team. He came to me today and wanted to contact you through me. But I don't know if he
He harbored evil intentions, so he refused."
"He Jin?" Jiang Yue thought of the guy who fought against Sangou. His fighting ability was indeed extraordinary.
If his bloodline hadn't been naturally suppressed by Sangou, that guy would have been difficult to deal with.
"Did he say something?"
"I didn't say it. I didn't give him a chance to say it. But he must be busy. He looks worried."
Jiang Yue nodded: "If he comes to you again later, you tell me. I can meet him. Some of those guys in Hengcheng are really good. It's a pity that they are so obsessed that they have to be an expert. They are deceived by some people.
Lame."
Some people, naturally, refer to that guy Yang Xiangchun.
This guy was robbed of his position as executive director. He might be up to something bad now, so he has to guard against this guy.
Liao Chu nodded and agreed: "I also feel it is a pity that so much strength is being used for internal strife."
