Chapter 115 Be Prepared
"By the way, Huaiyong should be 18 now, right?" Yang Zhenyu thought of his follower back then.

"Well, he's 18 now. Unfortunately he can't study, so he can only be busy in the production team." The old branch secretary said with a smile. Although his grandson is not as promising as Yang Zhenyu, he is still his grandson and the pride of his family.

"Let him come with me and go into the city." Yang Zhenyu said after a moment of hesitation.

Repaying a favor. It is said that a drop of water should be repaid with a spring. The old branch secretary's favor can be said to be the favor of saving his life, so he must definitely repay it.

Although he can give financial support now that he has the means, Yang Zhenyu does not want to taint the word "repay a favor" with money.

"Okay!" The old branch secretary stared at Yang Zhenyu for a while before nodding in agreement.

They had just experienced a great famine, and the old village chief felt that if his grandson could go to the city, it would definitely be much better off than staying in the village.

The reason for his hesitation was that he was afraid of causing trouble for Yang Zhenyu, but the old branch secretary also knew Yang Zhenyu's character. Since he had proposed it, he must be sure of it.

"It's settled then. We can't let this kid follow me around for so long for nothing, right?" Seeing that the old branch secretary agreed, Yang Zhenyu also laughed.

"I'll ask Mancang to call Huaiyong over." The old branch secretary said with a smile.

"Dad, this Huaiyong..." Chen Mancang was still a little worried.

"Okay, we'll get familiar with each other slowly. Old Party Secretary, I'll take Huaiyong with me now. If you miss him, come back to find me in the city. I've left you the address, don't lose it." Yang Zhenyu patted Chen Huaiyong on the shoulder and said to the old Party Secretary.

Yang Zhenyu took the letters of introduction and household registration documents on the table with him, as they would be needed for entering the factory and settling down.

"Ah."

"Brother Zhenyu?" Chen Huaiyong still felt a little unfamiliar when looking at Yang Zhenyu.

"Well, our Huaiyong will also be successful in the future." Chen Mancang nodded and said.

"Okay, you guys go ahead. Huaiyong is left to you." The old branch secretary nodded.

If you don't agree, forget it.

Anyway, it's just a blank letter of introduction, so there's nothing to lose.

Then, Yang Zhenyu took the confused Chen Huaiyong out of the door, got into the car and left.

Not long after, Chen Huaiyong was called back. When he saw Yang Zhenyu, he was completely dazed. After not seeing each other for so many years, it was inevitable that he felt unfamiliar with him.

"This is your brother Zhenyu, didn't you call for help?" The old branch secretary looked at the dazed Chen Huaiyong and kicked him.

When Yang Zhenyu wrote the letter of introduction in person, the old branch secretary knew that Yang Zhenyu came prepared.

"Don't worry. I've read the letter of introduction written by Zhenyu. It has the factory's official seal and was written in front of me. Ordinary people can't get such a letter of introduction." said the old branch secretary.

If Chen's family agrees to take Chen Huaiyong away, then write a letter of introduction.

It was just a matter of arranging for someone to enter the factory. It was really not a difficult task for Yang Zhenyu. After greeting Director Yang, there was no problem with this matter.

At that time, the old branch secretary knew that Yang Zhenyu must be very capable in the city, otherwise the factory would not have allowed him to arrange people in so casually.

"Hongyi's family has made progress. He ate our meals for a few days and slept in Huaiyong's bed for a few days. Now we take Huaiyong away. It is better to live in the city than suffer in the countryside." The old branch secretary said with a smile.

"Don't look at him. He came back to repay his gratitude. Fortunately, I was kind-hearted back then. Otherwise, Huaiyong would not have gotten this good thing." The old branch secretary said to Chen Mancang while looking at the direction where Yang Zhenyu's car left.

"Aunt, you go home first. I will take Huaiyong to the factory, help him with the entry procedures, and return the car on the way." Yang Zhenyu said after driving the car to the entrance of the alley.

"Okay, be careful on the road." The old lady nodded and got out of the car.

"Don't worry, nothing can happen in this city?" Yang Zhenyu said with a smile. Yang Zhenyu drove towards the steel mill. Fortunately, it was not far from the steel mill and arrived in a short while.

With Yang Zhenyu leading the way, the procedures were handled very quickly and all departments were very cooperative, so we had to give face to the deputy chief engineer.

After taking Chen Huaiyong to complete the factory procedures and taking the letter of introduction with him, we still had to go to the street office to get the food grain registration book and housing allocation, all of which required passing through the street office.

The factory dormitories are also subject to street management.

"Director Wang, I'm here to trouble you again." Yang Zhenyu brought Chen Huaiyong to the street office.

"Comrade Zhenyu, you're too polite. We are so happy that you can come here." Director Wang said with a smile.

"You are too polite. I went back to my hometown today to visit my parents' graves, and brought my brothers here with me. I can't just watch my brothers suffer in the countryside, right?" Yang Zhenyu said with a smile.

"It's easy. I'll arrange someone to help you right away. I'll see where there are houses and arrange for one near you." Director Wang immediately understood what Yang Zhenyu meant. The procedures for settling down are all trivial matters.

Yang Zhenyu and Director Wang were chatting over there, while Chen Huaiyong was sitting on the side in a daze. He had never experienced such a scene.

"Come in, what are you doing standing there like an idiot?" Yang Zhenyu took Chen Huaiyong back to the courtyard.

"Brother, is this where you live?" Chen Huaiyong looked at everything in the courtyard, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Yes, kid, you stay here for two days first. Wait until your accommodation is arranged. Then you can move in if you want. If you don't want to move, just stay here. Your brother has a place here." Yang Zhenyu said with a smile.

"Brother, can I really go to work in the factory tomorrow?" Chen Huaiyong still found it a little unbelievable. Is it so easy to get into the factory?

"How could it be false? You will go to the factory to work directly tomorrow. You'd better learn well. If you embarrass me, I will throw you to the Great Northern Wilderness and let you open up the wasteland there." Yang Zhenyu said.

When Chen Huaiyong heard the words "Great Northern Wilderness", he couldn't help but shudder.

That place is not a good place. It will take more than a few years to reclaim it.

"No, I'll just study hard." Chen Huaiyong waved his hands repeatedly.

"It's good to know. Study hard and master the skills so that you can hold your head up high when you go home for the New Year. Otherwise, you won't even be able to pass the apprenticeship and will return to the village in disgrace, and it will be the old party secretary who will be embarrassed." Yang Zhenyu said, rubbing Chen Huaiyong's head.

"Hey, I promise to study hard and buy my dad a big pig's trotter during the Chinese New Year." Chen Huaiyong grinned.

"Let's go and meet your sister-in-law." Yang Zhenyu said as he pulled Chen Huaiyong into the house.

After a busy day, the workers had already gone off work, and people on the street had also gone home.

If it wasn't for helping Yang Zhenyu with the procedures, I would not have worked overtime.

"Xixi, this is Huaiyong from the old branch secretary's family. I told you before that he will stay in our house for two days and move out once his housing is allocated." Yang Zhenyu said to Zhou Xixi who was reading a book.

"What are you standing there for? Call me sister-in-law." Yang Zhenyu said as he kicked Chen Huaiyong lightly.

"Hello, sister-in-law, hehe." Chen Huaiyong smiled naively.

"Sit down quickly, don't stand." Zhou Qianqian pulled over a stool and said.

"Eh."

Chen Huaiyong responded, but did not dare to sit down. Instead, he looked at Yang Zhenyu. In this unfamiliar environment, acquaintances could still give him a sense of security.

"Just sit down when I tell you to. Why are you standing there?" Yang Zhenyu said.
