After Luo Yu was officially hired, she received the salary of a level 6 clerk, which is grade 24. Logically, she shouldn't have received so much, but because of the special nature of her work, she was under the leadership of the Municipal Women's Federation and was assigned to work at Wulong Mine, so she received a higher salary.

Director Xu is a deputy division chief, which is equivalent to level 16 in the work grade system. The difference between these levels is significant. Even if he were promoted one level per year, it would still take eight years to reach Director Xu's position.

The current situation is that both Wulong Mine and the Women's Federation need her to be appointed as deputy director. They want to promote her to director the year after next. If they wait another eight years, that will be too long. Not only can Wulong Mine not wait, but Director Xu and the Women's Federation also cannot wait. Therefore, the promotion must be implemented.

Luo Yu wiped the sweat from his palms onto his pants, feeling both nervous and excited, all of which was observed by Director Xu.

"Xiao Luo, don't be nervous. It's just a promotion. We can't promote it too much this time. Let's start with level 21 and get the salary of a level 3 clerk, which is one level higher than Secretary Ding upstairs. What do you think?"

Ding Weimin is a college graduate. After being officially hired, his rank is level 22, and he receives the salary of a level 4 clerk, which is 56 yuan a month.

The salary of a level 3 clerk used to be 62 yuan a month, but now it's much more.

Luo Yu's eyes lit up upon hearing this. "Really? I can really reach level 21? Will people say anything?"

Director Xu waved his hand, "Our Women's Federation's affairs are not for others to interfere with."

"Besides, you're the lowest-ranking person in the whole department. Don't underestimate these older ladies just because they're older; they're only getting the salary of a level three clerk, which is 62 yuan a month."

Luo Yu nearly vomited blood upon hearing this.

Well, after all that, it turns out she's the one who pays the least in the whole department, and she's been happily chatting with those older women all day long, while they actually earn twenty yuan more a month than her.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Director. Anyway, I'm your subordinate, I'll follow you wherever you tell me to go. I'll stick with you from now on. But Director, don't leave me behind when you go to the city, otherwise I won't be able to work."

A gentle compliment pleased Director Xu, who smiled and nodded, "Okay, don't worry, I definitely won't abandon you."

That's what she said, but Luo Yu was still a little worried and planned to go back and discuss with Xi Beizhan whether to give Director Xu a gift.

She can't accept anything too expensive, but surely some meat and food would be fine?

I heard that Director Xu's wife is a heavy smoker and also likes to drink. She could buy some good cigarettes and alcohol!

She has alcohol in her space, but she's missing cigarettes.

Oh right, I haven't checked in today yet. Why don't I give it a try? What if I get selected?

Director Xu went to answer the phone again. Luo Yu sat back down in her chair, head down, pretending to be very busy, but actually she was signing in.

【Sign in】

[Successful check-in, the reward is as follows:]

1. Ten cartons of Zhonghua cigarettes

2. Ten yuan in cash

The reward has been deposited into the host's space. Please check it yourself.

Seeing the ten extra packs of cigarettes in the space, Luo Yu felt relieved.

Now that I have both cigarettes and alcohol, I'll find a chance to deliver them to Director Xu later.

But this wine...

Luo Yu was a little reluctant to part with it. Even though she didn't know much about wine, she knew that the system gave her only good wine, and that in thirty or forty years, each bottle would fetch an astronomical price.

She should try to find a suitable bar in the department store; she couldn't bear to part with the alcohol in the store, nor was it worth it.

After handing the report of the fellowship association to Director Xu, Director Xu went to the city for a meeting in the afternoon. Luo Yu had nothing to do, and just then someone asked the Women's Federation to make a decision. Luo Yu asked Aunt Liu to take her out on a field trip on her bicycle.

"Aunt Liu, what happened today? Tell me about it."

Aunt Liu glanced at Aunt Zhang and said, "You should ask Aunt Zhang. The person who came to our door today is your neighbor. She knows much more about this than I do."

Looking at Aunt Zhang's gloomy face, Luo Yu shrank back and whispered, "What's wrong with Aunt Zhang? She doesn't look well."

Aunt Liu whispered, "Your Aunt Zhang is angry."

Aunt Zhang chimed in, "I'm so angry! I've never seen a family like this before. They're even worse than Mingzhu's mother. It's really bad luck to be neighbors with them."

Luo Yu was taken aback upon hearing this, and then her eyes suddenly lit up as she looked at Aunt Zhang.

"Aunt Zhang, please elaborate."

Seeing Luo Yu's gossipy expression, Aunt Zhang suddenly laughed.

"You, at such a young age, are so gossipy. If you hadn't gotten married so early, you might never have a chance to get married."

Luo Yu smiled sheepishly, "No, I'm just curious, yes, just curious."

Aunt Zhang smiled and shook her head. "Telling you won't hurt. This can't be kept a secret anyway. You might get dragged out and made to eat peanuts."

Luo Yu's smile vanished, and her brows furrowed slightly. "Is it that serious?"

Aunt Zhang nodded, and Aunt Liu whispered, "Pretty much. At worst, they'll be paraded through the streets and then sent to a farm for reform."

Aunt Zhang then recounted the story, leaving Luo Yu utterly shocked, her mouth agape.

Holy crap! This has completely shattered her worldview; even novels wouldn't dare to write something like this.

It turned out that the neighbors living next door to Aunt Zhang were an elderly couple. The old man's surname was Lin. The couple had been injured in the war years ago and had never had children until their later years when his wife suddenly became pregnant.

The couple was overjoyed. Even though it was a girl, they didn't mind at all and held her all day long.

This girl was spoiled from a young age, and her personality became more and more arrogant. In her eyes, no one was as good as her. Even if other families had money, they had to spend it on her because she was beautiful.

No one knows who instilled this idea in her. At first, the elderly couple didn't notice, but by the time they realized it, it was too late to change her mind, so they had no choice but to let it be.

Fortunately, the elderly couple had sound values ​​and kept talking to the little girl. The little girl didn't do anything outrageous. But the problem was that the elderly couple were old and had always been in poor health. When they reached a certain age, they couldn't hold on any longer and passed away one after the other three years ago, leaving the little girl to live alone.

The girl had just graduated from high school, and the elderly couple spent all their money to buy her a job so that she could at least have something to eat. Therefore, after the couple passed away, they left the girl nothing except the house.

The young girl was used to spending money lavishly, and the meager earnings she made were far from enough for her. Therefore, she set her sights on her boyfriend.

The young woman thought she was pretty and that her boyfriend's family was well-off. Just when she was thinking about getting married, both of her parents passed away. Her boyfriend's parents, who already disliked her, were even more opposed to the marriage.

The young girl wouldn't let go of her boyfriend and even gave him her body, thinking that one day she would get pregnant and force him to marry her.

But before she could get pregnant, her boyfriend got married, and the bride wasn't her.

This infuriated her. Not only did she disrupt her boyfriend's wedding, but she also beat up his parents.

She made a huge scene this time; her reputation is completely ruined, and she's lost her job as well.

She lost her job and her family had little money, so she couldn't even afford to eat. Last year, the neighborhood committee wanted her to go to the countryside.
