You need to raise your pet using a system [Era]

Chapter 32 Seeking Zhao Zhongcai

After finishing work, Lu Yuanqing went to Lu Guobin's house.

Lu Guobin and the brigade leader Zhao Zhongcai were childhood friends who grew up together and had a very good relationship.

Lu Yuanqing didn't keep them in suspense and directly stated his purpose.

"You want to compete for the position of village accountant?" Lu Guobin was a little surprised.

Clearly, he knew a little about it, but he didn't say anything, nor did he have any intention of competing. Like most people, he didn't care who was the accountant; it didn't matter.

“Yes!” Lu Yuanqing nodded. “Uncle, I went to junior high school, so my education level is not bad.” In the village, many people only have literacy education. In fact, when literacy classes were held in the past, many people did not realize the importance of knowledge and even thought it was a waste of time and would delay their work.

"Besides, I'm pretty good at accounting!"

He wasn't bragging; he majored in accounting and finance and had already obtained his junior accounting certificate by his junior year. He even had a job certificate, but he wasn't short of money. Apart from internships, he hadn't officially worked after graduation.

But the theoretical knowledge is solid.

"Uncle, you know our family's situation. If there's an opportunity, of course we should seize it." He's not a second-generation rich kid anymore. Now that he's an accountant and has a salary, he can afford to send Lu Yuanhuan and the others to school. He won't even have to rack his brains for excuses when he needs money in the future.

“I really didn’t expect you to have this idea, but since you’ve decided to, I support you!” Lu Guobin said, still a little excited.

Neither he nor his three sons had ever thought about this issue.

Their ingrained thought is to work every day, earn more work points, and support their family.

Lu Yuanqing's desire to become an accountant has completely changed his mindset.

"Let's go!" Lu Guobin excitedly patted Lu Yuanqing on the shoulder, gesturing for him to come with him. "Uncle will take you to the brigade leader now to find out what's going on!"

"Thank you, Uncle!" Lu Yuanqing said gratefully.

Lu Guobin is a typical honest farmer who has worked hard for his family all his life. His thoughts are simple: he just wants to work hard, earn work points, and get more grain after the autumn harvest.

He was unfamiliar with the intricacies of interpersonal relationships, and his living conditions did not allow him to learn more about them.

But having eaten for decades, I still have some common sense.

After learning of his nephew's idea, he immediately decided to take him to the brigade leader to curry favor.

Since we've known each other since we were toddlers, we'll take advantage of any opportunity that comes our way.

When Zhao Zhongcai learned of the two men's intentions, he glanced at Lu Yuanqing in surprise.

To be honest, his relationship with Lu Guobin wasn't as deep as everyone thought. Even though they grew up together, in this village, who didn't grow up together?

Lu Guobin is a relatively honest person, and such people are more willing to compromise when getting along with others.

Therefore, Zhao Zhongcai, who has always been quick-witted, prefers to associate with such people, as he doesn't have to worry about them scheming against him.

Even if we go out to find wild fruits together, we don't have to worry about being robbed, or about each other hiding things from each other just to take a little more.

But Lu Guobin is a straightforward person! He would never do something like that.

This is the main reason why Zhao Zhongcai preferred to play with others when he was a child.

Compared to their peers who simply grew up together in the village, and even fought and fought over food, the two had a slightly better relationship.

Moreover, Lu Guobin is too honest and has no potential to be a cadre. Like most villagers, he is conscientious and his mind is full of work in the fields, so there is no possibility of competition between them.

Now that he's quite old and has grandchildren, he still brings his nephew over to say these things.

Zhao Zhongcai was certainly willing to give him this opportunity.

"Yuanqing has finally figured it out!" Zhao Zhongcai teased Lu Yuanqing.

Now, this handsome young man stands tall and upright. Who would have thought that just a few months ago, he was lying in bed, half-dead, with no sense of responsibility at all!

"I was thinking of doing this for our village! I'm willing to contribute my modest efforts!" Lu Yuanqing said with a shy yet determined expression.

Zhao Zhongcai was truly amazed and looked at him with great interest several times.

"Captain, I, Lu Yuanqing, also grew up in this village. My father and the others helped the village a lot back then. I will never forget this kindness. When the village needs talent, I will definitely step forward to contribute without hesitation!" Lu Yuanqing said passionately.

He's a talented person; we mustn't let him go.

Lu Guobin's eyes widened: "..." He had the illusion of seeing another Zhao Zhongcai.

Zhao Zhongcai's lips twitched: "..." That sounds really nice.

Who taught you to speak Mandarin? You speak it much better than him.

"Hahaha... Good, well said, dedicating yourself to the people, good awareness!" Zhao Zhongcai nodded in satisfaction. The Lu family was a group of honest people, but he never expected to find such a slippery character.

I really misjudged him before; Lu Yuanqing is completely different from what people usually see.

Lu Yuanqing smiled innocently. As a junior, he was always the most honest and dutiful in front of his elders!

"Well..." Lu Guobin was clearly more anxious. He could praise him as much as he wanted, and his nephew was indeed very good, but at least he should express his opinion!

Zhao Zhongcai glared at him with a smile and said, "What's your hurry! You've come all this way, do you think I'd let you go back empty-handed?"

After saying that, he looked at Lu Yuanqing and said, "Yuanqing, I will write down your name. After you go back, write an application and bring it to me. Time is a bit tight, so hand it in to me no later than the day after tomorrow."

"The selection of accountants this time is different from before. After several cadres from our brigade reviewed the applications, they determined the candidates. Those who pass the selection will need to go to the commune for an interview."

Previously, the brigade cadres could select a few people, submit the quota to the commune, and the commune would approve it.

However, due to something that happened today, the rules have been changed.

"Okay, Captain, thank you!" Lu Yuanqing said with a smile.

Zhao Zhongcai was a little worried: "Isn't the time a bit rushed? The main problem is that you arrived a little late. It would have been better if you had come earlier!"

The brigade accountant will be the one he works with the longest. So far, among those who signed up, Lu Yuanqing is a smart person.

It's easier to get along with smart people.

"Don't worry, Captain, I can do it!" Lu Yuanqing said firmly.

He had applied to join the Party while in university, and although he was unsuccessful, writing the application was not a difficult task for him.

Zhao Zhongcai glanced at Lu Guobin, and as they were leaving, he patted Lu Yuanqing on the shoulder and said, "This time the confirmation of cadres is different from before. The higher-ups found out about Zhang's actions, so you just need to write your application honestly!"

Lu Yuanqing gave Zhao Zhongcai a deep look, sensing his goodwill, his smile deepened, and he said gratefully, "Thank you, Uncle Zhao!"

Zhao Zhongcai chuckled. This brat who always tries to climb the ladder has really been misjudged before!
