Chapter 877 The Child Is Important, but Yan Yue Is More Important

In terms of job level, the director of the Housing and Construction Bureau is much higher than the director of a planting center under the Planting Management Department. Cao Ming's explanation to Xia Qing in person means to tell her: I have already decided on this matter, and it is useless for you to find the base commander. Explaining to you in person is just to give you a way out, so don't be ungrateful.

You have to do your job when you are in your position. Xia Qing doesn't like to deal with such things, but she has to deal with them.

Not liking it doesn't mean she can't do it.

When she was a construction team leader in the safe zone, Xia Qing had dealt with people from the Housing and Construction Bureau a lot, but she was a low-level staff member at that time. She was not afraid of high-level personnel, because she had negotiated with the captain of the Qinglong team many times and had already understood the ways of these "big guys".

Explain? Come on! Let's see who can talk better!

Xia Qing entered the director's office in the inner room with a blank expression, opened the window to let in the wind, and called Director Cao, "Hello Director Cao, I'm Xia Qing from the Ninth Planting Center."

Cao Ming's voice was very enthusiastic, "Xiao Xia, I heard that you were hit by backwash rain? I've been wanting to call you to ask, but I'm afraid to disturb you at work..."

Xia Qing responded neither servilely nor arrogantly, "Thank you Director Cao for your concern. I was indeed hit by strong winds, hail and backwash rain, and I'm busy building greenhouses and relocating employees..."

Listening to Xia Qing's complaints, Cao Ming, who was in the air conditioner, flicked the cigarette in his hand with his index finger, watched the silver-white ash fall into the emerald ashtray, and then sighed and interrupted her, "Yes, it's not easy for everyone to work hard these days. You guard the grain fields and at least have something to eat, but I can only eat dirt here..."

In principle, the planting center needs to build a solid wall and pull up barbed wire to protect the center's farmland and assets.

However, the Huisan Safety Zone and the Northern District 2 suffered from explosive attacks in the middle of last month, and the Northern Districts 1 and 2 suffered from strong winds and hail in the second half of the month. This has led to an even greater shortage of construction materials in Huisan, which were already limited. Therefore, Cao Ming hopes that Xia Qing can understand the difficulties of the base and build the wall of the Ninth Planting Center in March next year. After all, the Northern District 1 territory has been surrounded by a circle of barbed wire.

Is it more urgent to build in the safety zone protected by a reinforced concrete wall more than ten meters high than here? Xia Qing chuckled. The Housing and Construction Bureau is holding back the materials of the Ninth Planting Center. It must be Ding Xingye who is secretly making trouble.

However, Cao Ming has spoken up, so it is impossible to pull the materials over within these two months. Want to delay it until next year? No way!

After listening to Cao Ming's complaints, Xia Qing expressed her full understanding of the difficulties of the Housing and Construction Bureau, and expressed her full support for the reconstruction of the disaster-stricken areas of Huisan, while once again explaining to the other party that she is also in a difficult situation here.

After more than half an hour of extreme tug-of-war, Xia Qing agreed to postpone the delivery of materials for building the wall for two months, and the other party also agreed to add some equipment to the Ninth Center to "support" Xia Qing's work.

This amount of materials is nothing to the Housing and Construction Bureau, but it can substantially improve the working and living conditions of the employees of the Ninth Planting Center.

Xia Qing hung up the phone, let out a long breath, and walked to the outer room and said to Yan Yue, "Tomorrow morning, the Housing and Construction Bureau will send a car to deliver two freezers, two refrigerators, six air conditioners and 60 solar panels. One air conditioner will be installed in this office, and you can discuss and arrange the other materials."

Yan Yue asked, "Director, can the air conditioner in this office be installed in the classroom? Our resistance is stronger than that of the children."

The total number of employees and family members of the Ninth Planting Center is 369, and there are 26 children under the age of 12.

After obtaining Xia Qing's consent, Yue Haiying asked Yan Yue to apply to the Huisan Education Bureau in the name of the Ninth Center to establish a school in the Ninth Planting Center.

The Ninth Center can solve the problem of teachers and teaching hardware by itself. It only needs the Huisan Education Bureau to determine that the teachers here are qualified to teach and the school conditions meet the requirements, and then issue a formal approval document to recognize the qualifications of this school.

Disaster prevention, food, medical care and education are the four major issues that the country is focusing on at this stage. The Huisan Education Bureau quickly sent people to check the school conditions, and reported to the Huicheng Education Department after returning, allowing a basic education school to be opened in the Huisan Ninth Planting Center, and officially named it the Northern District Basic Education School.

This school was confirmed as a public school, and the expenses such as student textbooks and teacher salaries were allocated by the Huisan Finance Bureau.

The students enrolled in the school are not limited to the Ninth Planting Center. Children who meet the admission requirements in the various territories in the Northern District can enter the school to study.

Therefore, 10-year-old Tan Qi and 11 other territories who meet the admission requirements were also enrolled in the school, and the number of students reached 38. Xia Qing just learned that in addition to Tan Qi, there were 10 children under the age of 12 in this territory.

According to their educational level, students entering the school are divided into three classes: elementary, intermediate and advanced, and study compulsory courses such as Chinese, mathematics, law, disaster prevention and mitigation, evolutionary biology and physical fitness.

The principal and teachers of the school, except Zhao's mother, are all selected from the employees of the Ninth Planting Center.

Although the teachers of the Northern District School, like most of the employees of the Ninth Center, have physical defects of one kind or another, their teaching ability is absolutely no problem.

Every time Yan Yue passes by the school building on his way to and from get off work, he will stop to listen to the children's reading and laughter.

Yan Yue, who has no children, has proposed this, and He Hui, whose son is studying at school, is of course more in favor, "Yes, when we are hot, we can just fan ourselves with a fan and drink some water, and we don't need air conditioning."

Xia Qing directly rejected the proposal of the two people, "This is the hub of our implant center, and you are important employees of our center. I want to bring six air conditioners, and one must be installed here."

The office of the ninth implant center bears heavy and important work responsibilities.

Externally, the office is responsible for contacting the relevant departments of Huisan; upward, the office must regularly report to Xia Qing on the work progress of the entire center and assist Xia Qing in handling daily affairs; internally, the office must coordinate the work of various departments to ensure the smooth operation of the implant center as a whole.

In addition, the office also bears the responsibilities of document and paperwork management, meeting management, and administrative management.

According to the job establishment, the office should have a director and three staff members. However, Yue Haiying is very cautious in recruiting people based on the principle of "better to have less than too much".

So before He Hui joined the job, these burdens were all on Yan Yue. If Yan Yue fell ill, the operation of the ninth implant center would fall into chaos.

As the full agent of the ninth center, Xia Qing's first consideration is of course the working conditions of core employees. Children are important, they are the future and hope of the country, but for Xia Qing, Yan Yue is more important.

Feeling Xia Qing's attention to her, an irresistible feeling surged from her heart, flushing Yan Yue's eyes. She straightened her back and responded loudly, "Yes!" (End of this chapter)
