Two days later, Shen Man put down the child and went back to work.
I have been resting during this period, and there is not much pressure in the factory. After all, the food factory now is no longer the food factory it used to be.
There are many types of food in the factory and all are sold, so there won't be any problems for a while.
When Shen Man came back to report, he first went to the factory director.
Understand the situation and prepare for the next work.
Director Zheng was very happy to see her back. "Director Shen, how is your recovery? I haven't seen you during this period, so I asked Director Liu to go."
It was actually inconvenient for him. After all, the other party was a lesbian and was undergoing confinement. It was nothing else.
On the day of Shen Man's confinement, there happened to be a meeting in the city at the beginning of the year, so she didn't go to it.
Hearing this, Shen Man smiled and said: "It's recovering well. Director Liu said that the factory is going to expand again. This is a good thing. You should be busy."
After saying a few polite words, Director Zheng changed from his normal state and said seriously: "Director Shen, you know that the factory wants to expand its business recently. I want to tell you the details."
"Say." Seeing his serious attitude, Shen Man immediately sat upright and listened carefully.
Director Zheng continued: "The factory used to be at the bottom. Although it is the first food factory, it is not as big as the second factory. The expansion quotas in previous years were all given to the second factory."
"But it's different now. Our factory's performance has been very good in the past two years. Director Jiang Ce paid special attention to us, so he also gave us some benefits."
"In addition, this year's provincial special-grade quota, Chief Jiang Ce won for us. In addition to expanding production, we will also let us renovate the old factory buildings in the factory."
"I also have some ideas and want to buy new production machines! However, this needs to be imported. After all, our heavy industry is relatively backward. This has to be admitted."
At this point he stopped and said no more.
Shen Man, on the other hand, thought about his words carefully, and then spoke slowly: "Director Zheng, I agree with your idea. The factory needs progress to continuously increase efficiency, and it will definitely not work to just stand still."
"Although our performance has improved a lot in the past two years, it is not the best and there is still a lot of room for improvement."
"You want to import machines, what do you need to do?"
She could vaguely guess that the purchase of the machine was probably done through her.
Shen Man guessed right, the factory did think so. Since her major was Russian, it was perfect to go to the country next door to buy equipment.
"Director Shen, it's really easy to talk to you about things." Director Zheng smiled and said, "The factory wants you to buy equipment. It's a mess there, so we'll ask others to go with you."
"I just don't know what your wishes are?"
It's more of a notification than an inquiry, but I'm very respectful of Shen Man when I say it this way.
For such a big event as going abroad, no matter what, you must give advance notice.
Shen Man nodded and said: "Director, I cannot have the academic status I have today without the help of the factory. Don't worry, I will definitely do my best."
As for whether she can complete the task, it still depends on the situation. She doesn't know the situation there, so making random promises will only embarrass herself.
If it works, it's fine, but if it doesn't, it's just nonsense.
Director Zheng was very satisfied with her attitude, "Okay, I will notify you of the specific time, so be ready to go at any time."
After the conversation, Shen Man went to Director Liu's office. In the entire factory, the relationship between the two of them was considered very good.
Moreover, she was able to achieve her current status because of Director Liu's promotion, and she was often recommended to her superiors.
Seeing her coming back, Director Liu said with a smile: "Now that you are back, our factory will improve efficiency again."
Although this is a bit exaggerated, it is undeniable that Shen Man's existence has indeed improved a lot of benefits for the food factory.
The two reminisced about old times for a while, and Director Liu said, "Have you gone to the factory director?"
"Gone." Shen Man nodded.
Hearing this, Director Liu said again: "Has he told you about going abroad? I was also there when the meeting was held on this matter."
During the previous meeting, considering that Shen Man had just given birth, there was no notice and the time was postponed as much as possible.
This is also the respect given to her by the factory. As for whether to go or not, she must go.
After all, there is no one in the factory who can speak Russian, and I don’t know if I can find one if I go out and look for him.
In addition, Shen Man was originally the director of the factory, so for the benefit of the collective, she had to go.
Shen Man nodded and replied: "I told you, I don't know when to go."
Director Liu hesitated for a moment. It seemed that he had something to say, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Shen Man didn't ask, got up and went back to the office.
She was on vacation during this period, which kept Ma Xiaoli busy. Since she had no work, she went to the archives to help organize information.
Seeing that Shen Man was back, she was so moved. "Sister, you are finally back."
During her confinement period, she went to see him once. Since she was working at that time, she put down the gift money and went back.
"Sister Xiaoli, are you not paying attention to your work without me here?" Shen Man joked with a smile.
Ma Xiaoli curled her lips and said, "I help out in the archives all day long, sorting out information every day. In fact, some things don't need to be sorted out, so let me do it."
"It's better this time, I can sit in the office."
If she had been doing this job of organizing files in the past, she would have definitely been happy to do it. Although some gay people had bad feelings for her, it would not affect her.
Things are different now. I have completely adapted to sitting in an office for a few months, but going back to do those jobs is obviously not something I can adapt to.
"There's no need to go today. I just have something to tell you." Shen Man put down his bag and sat down and said, "The factory will let me go abroad in a while. You go with me."
Because the journey was far away and the other person was gay, the factory director finally told her to bring a secretary.
After all, two lesbians are better than one man and one woman.
The funds are limited and only three people can go.
In this regard, Shen Man thought that Ma Xiaoli was indeed a trustworthy person.
Hearing this, Ma Xiaoli was stunned, "Go abroad!?"
She never thought that she would be able to go abroad in her lifetime.
But Shen Man didn't know what she was thinking, so he asked, "Is it inconvenient for the child?"
Also, the two children need someone to take care of their lives. This trip will last for more than half a month. Apart from Ma Xiaoli, there is no one else in their family.
In fact, Shen Man couldn't worry about the baby at home. He had just been born and was very emotional.
Leng Buding had been away for so long, and when she came back, the children might not even recognize her.
Although such a young child has no memory, he is still his own child.
With empathy, Shen Man understood Ma Xiaoli that it was normal not to want to go.
