Chapter 258 Chapter 257 Pay

After returning home, Tang Zhitong gave the seal stone to Wang Jingwen.

"Tian Huang? Where did it come from?" Wang Jingwen took a closer look at it and asked slightly surprised.

"You actually know him? I asked someone and found out it was Tian Huang." Tang Zhitong was equally surprised by Wang Jingwen's answer.

"There are many educated people in our unit, and there are quite a few people playing with this thing, so I took a look at it. You haven't said where it came from yet?" Wang Jingwen was hot on her heels. She won't be paid until tomorrow. She knew her husband didn't have much. money, for fear that he would do something wrong.

"I did a favor to a friend, so I gave him a thank you gift." Tang Zhitong briefly told Wang Jingwen what had happened.

"Okay, you have to be more careful about this kind of thing in the future." Wang Jingwen advised tactfully, and then handed the Tian Huang stone to Tang Zhitong: "You can take it and engrave a seal, it just happens that there is no seal."

"It's a waste if I use this thing. You don't have it either. It's just for you. I'll pick up the leftover wood from our furniture making and find some scraps to carve one." Tang Zhitong confiscated it. Beauty deserves beautiful jade. Since Many people in her unit are using it, so we can’t spare the face of classmate Xiao Wang, right?

"I don't need it either. This thing is not wear-resistant. I think they also need a wooden box or something, which makes it difficult to handle." Xiao Wang was a little disgusted, but then his eyes lit up and he said to Tang Zhitong with a little excitement: "One I’ll find a larger piece of leftover material. Let’s both use mahogany wood. How about using one piece of material?”

"Okay, then I'll go look for it. You put the seal stone away first, and then help me find two copybooks. I'll take them to the work tomorrow and practice calligraphy with Brother Yuan." Tang Zhitong agreed, and before starting to pull, he said to Wang Jingwen ordered.

As for couple seals, I don’t know if this method exists now. Anyway, similar things became popular for a while a few decades later - key chains and mobile phone chains.

The two pieces fit together perfectly, which is especially popular with young couples. It is sold at many attractions.

The next day, July 1959, 7, the 3th day of May in the year of Jihai, it was a good time to meet friends and the weather was fine.

Early in the morning, Tang Zhitong went to work with Wang Jingwen. They parted ways in the square. Wang Jingwen went north to Beitu via Fuyou Street, while Tang Zhitong went south to the Municipal Bureau.

The heads of various outlets in the city will come over early this morning to collect their wages and take them back for distribution.

The Finance Department of the Municipal Bureau sent the heads of each branch away, and then it was the turn of the colleagues working in Hubu Street.

Tang Zhitong has been to the Municipal Bureau many times, but this is the first time he has come to collect his salary.

The door to the Finance Department is easy to find, just look where the queue is.

Tang Zhitong met a long-lost acquaintance here, Zheng Jian.

"Hello Zheng, are you here to collect your salary?" The people from the branch arrived early because they needed to make deliveries in the morning. Tang Zhitong was about to go over and queue up when he saw Zheng Jian walking towards him and took the initiative to say hello.

"Hey, Xiao Tang, why are you here?" Zheng Jian was surprised to see Tang Zhitong.

"Section Chief Fang has left the job of collecting wages to me." Tang Zhitong raised the salary slip in his hand, explained to Zheng Jian, and took the initiative to disperse the cigarette.

"Oh, not bad, the progress is very fast!" Zheng Jian was very happy about Tang Zhitong's progress. After all, he was the one who brought it up.

"Thanks to your leadership and following you, I learned a lot." Tang Zhitong lit a cigarette for Zheng Jian, and the two of them came to the door to smoke.

"Don't put a high hat on me. It's your own fault. Work hard in the future and don't be like Zhang Yuan. Have you heard about him?" Zheng Jian was very happy to hear this, but he denied it with a grin. People in this age are simple and rarely take credit for themselves. "I heard that gambling is harmful to people." Zhang Yuan is the son of master Zheng Jian. Tang Zhitong originally did not intend to mention this matter to Zheng Jian, considering Zheng Jian's face, but he took the initiative to mention it, so he could not pretend not to know.

"Hey, take him as a warning. You have a great future, but don't touch that." Zheng Jian sighed and warned solemnly.

"Thank you Zheng Suo for reminding me. Don't worry, I won't touch it." Tang Zhitong shook his head like a rattle. After all, he has been educated for many years and is well aware of the dangers of gambling and drug addiction, which is different from those young people who grew up in the old society. , they were popular when I was a child, and I have been exposed to them frequently.

"Come and sit there often when you have time. I have some deliveries to do over there, so I'm leaving first." The two chatted for a few more words, and after smoking a cigarette, Zheng Jian raised his wrist to look at the time and said.

"Okay, Zheng Suo, let's go slowly." Tang Zhitong stood on the steps and watched Zheng Jian go away. He didn't mention that Qian Zhongping said he had been there. Maybe Qian Zhongping didn't tell him that he had been there two days ago?

Tang Zhitong picked up the cigarette butts on the ground, threw them into the trash can, and went to the Finance Department to line up.

Tang Zhitong originally planned to spend some snacks and get close to the people in the finance department. After all, he would have to deal with them in the future, but there were many people coming to collect their wages, and it was obviously not a good opportunity now, so he gave up.

The staff of the Finance Department looked at Tang Zhitong's face. After checking the certification letter and work permit, they began to count the money and deliver according to the total amount on the salary sheet.

There are two copies of the salary list, one is submitted to the city bureau, and the other is kept by the escort department. There will also be a follow-up audit to prevent anyone from playing tricks.

Since they were collecting wages from a department, the staff of the Finance Department gave them a lot of loose banknotes. After they counted them, Tang Zhitong counted them again and confirmed that the amount was accurate before putting the money away and signing his signature.

Also taken away with him was a stack of envelopes for everyone’s wages to be packed in when they went back.

When he was approaching the staff passage of the train station, Tang Zhitong stopped the car, took out the abacus and copybook from the space, checked again to make sure nothing was missing, and then rode his bicycle to the escort department.

Tang Zhitong opened the door, put away his things, and before his buttocks got hot, someone came to ask about getting his salary: "Chief Tang, can I get my salary now?"

"Yes, take it. What's your surname?" Tang Zhitong took out the salary list and put it on the table. It was the first time that he paid wages to the escort department alone. Many people didn't recognize it completely, and those who didn't know could only ask one by one.

As for the possible problem of false claims, Tang Zhitong is not worried. After the queue lines up, one after another, Tang Zhitong doesn't recognize them. How can other colleagues not recognize them? Of course someone will point it out.

After the person said his name, Tang Zhitong counted out the money according to the amount on the salary list, checked it again, and then handed it over together with an envelope.

After counting and confirming that the wages are correct, colleagues who receive wages will sign or stamp their name in the last column of the wage list.

The process is the same as that of the Municipal Bureau. It takes about two to three minutes to complete the process.

This post lasted all morning and has not been finished yet.

During lunch, Tang Zhitong finally took a breath and drank a glass of water.

Work continued in the afternoon, and when three o'clock came, all had been distributed and the amount was accurate.
