Labor Day Tree Planting

In a blink of an eye, the eventful April came to an end, and Labor Day ushered in.

When it was time to go to work, Lao Fang led Dabao’s mother to the office.

Xu Dong stood up and said concernedly: “Old Fang, looking at your flushed face, you should be fine, right?”

“Good morning.” Lao Fang approached Xu Dong and thanked softly: “Thanks to your fish and milk powder, and by the way, shrimp.”

“It’s not free, didn’t you spend money!” Xu Dong said modestly.

Lao Fang waved his hand, “What is that little money, even if you double it ten times, you can’t buy so many good things. I will remember your kindness.”

“See you outside, don’t you!”

“Okay, I brought Dabao’s mother here, let’s arrange it!”

“Don’t worry, leave it to me!” Xu Dong nodded.

===Section 125===

Lao Fang went to work, Xu Dong brought Dabao’s mother to Section Chief Li’s office, and he needed to talk to Section Chief Li about this matter.

“Uncle Li, this is the Xiao Xiao I told you about. She came to work today. Xiao Xiao, this is our section chief. Uncle Li is in charge of our entire security department.”

Dabao’s mother hurriedly greeted: “Hello, section chief!”

“Xiao Xiao, don’t be nervous, just go back and work hard, don’t worry about other things.” Section Chief Li casually comforted.

“Thanks, I see.”

After leaving the section chief’s office, Xu Dong asked Dabao’s mother to fill in a resume, and the other party’s job would be attached to the security company.

The only difference is that the security company will not take a commission.

“Brother Xu, I’ve filled it out.”

“Well, the bank card number must be filled in correctly. The security company will call you on time every month for your salary. You don’t have to worry about that.”

“ThanksThanks. ”

After receiving the security uniform, Dabao’s mother immediately changed into it.

“Okay, let me take you to the place where you work. Actually, we have nothing to do at the north gate, and we are free most of the time.” Xu Dong introduced with a smile.

Dabao’s mother nodded and said in agreement: “Uncle Fang told me that, in fact, as long as I can get to and from get off work on time, I will be very satisfied.”

“I told the people below that if you are not assigned to work the night shift, it will definitely be fine to take care of Dabao.”

“Thank you Brother Xu.”

“Just call me boss, that’s what everyone calls me.”

The dispatch workers were generally younger, and with Xiang Xin taking the lead, his subordinates now called him “boss”, and he was used to it.

“Ok!”

When they came to the North Gate, when Xu Dong was not around, the North Gate was usually in charge of the North Gate. Since Xiao Wang passed away, the Big Tou had been with him for the longest time.

The big head was lucky. After Xiao Wang passed away, Chen Yang was taken away. Now at the North Gate, apart from Xu Dong and Xiang Xin, they can be regarded as the third in command.

“Boss, you are here.”

Datou was about to take people to patrol, and when he saw Captain Xu coming, he hurried over to say hello.

“Well, I brought a new employee here. This is Xiao Xiao. She is older than you. You can call her Sister Xiao from now on!”

“Hello, Miss Xiao!”

“Xiao Xiao, this is Xiaohe, you can also call him Datou.” Xu Dong introduced.

“Xiaohe, hello.”

“Okay, big head, go on patrol, and take Xiao Xiao with you by the way, so that she can experience the working atmosphere.”

“Yes, boss.”

…

Back in the office, Xu Dong was not idle. Today is May Day. Although the company did not arrange a holiday, it still prepared celebrations.

At about ten o’clock, the big leader will take some employees to Nanmen Street to participate in the tree planting activity.

Since the outbreak of the drought, Yanjing’s green vegetation has suffered unprecedented damage.

In just over a year, most of the green belts in the urban area, including major parks, have withered and died, and less than one percent survived.

In addition, the original green vegetation consumes a lot of water and is no longer suitable for the current environment.

This time, the higher authorities finally made up their minds and prepared to replace them with a batch of new green plants that are resistant to cold, heat and drought.

The reason for planting trees at this time is mainly because the temperature difference between day and night in May is relatively small, which is conducive to improving the survival rate of seedlings.

Just after nine o’clock, Xu Dong commanded more than a dozen dispatch workers to transport the shovels, buckets, a pile of beverage bottles, and dozens of bundles of young saplings used for tree planting to Nanmen Street.

The small sapling was just sent over by the garden department in the morning. It was one meter high and thick as a finger. The specific species was unknown, and Xu Dong didn’t ask.

The beverage bottles were specially bought from the waste recycling station, and they were all large one-to-two-liter bottles. These things are in short supply recently, and the company spent a lot of money.

Not surprisingly, in desert areas, using beverage bottles to plant trees has a high survival rate, which is nothing new.

At ten o’clock, surrounded by everyone, Mr. Liao finally appeared. Almost two-thirds of the company’s employees participated in the tree planting activity.

According to the principle of keeping everything simple.

Mr. Liao stood in the middle of the crowd and gave a ten-minute speech. The content was about protecting the environment and everyone is responsible, which are commonplace things.

“Papa…”

After the applause, the tree planting activity officially began.

It was different from Xu Dong’s imagination. The leaders worked very hard. Mr. Liao dug the first hole in ten minutes, with a diameter of 30 centimeters and a depth of 50 centimeters.

It took another five minutes, and the first sapling was finally planted, and there were thunderous cheers at the scene.

Xu Dong touched Section Chief Li with his arm: “Uncle Li, I didn’t remember here, why are Mr. Liao and the others working so hard?”

“Who said there are no reporters? Look at the sky.”

Xu Dong looked up and saw that he was free to shoot the camera, no wonder he kept hearing the buzzing sound.

“What’s the matter, why didn’t you see the camera?”

“The above teamed up with Xiaopozhan to organize a live broadcast of tree planting for the whole people, and netizens all over the country are watching!” Section Chief Li helped the young sapling.

Xu Dong filled the soil unhurriedly, “I see, when will this live broadcast end?”

“Live all day, wait until you get off work, don’t try to be lazy today.” Section Chief Li teased.

“It’s okay, the camera must be on the leader’s side, let’s be lazy, no one will notice.”

“You, you, everyone is trying their best to perform, but you want to be lazy, work hard, maybe you can be on the news at night.” Chief Li shook his head.

“I’m going to make it so big?” Xu Dong said in surprise, it would be awesome to be on the evening news.

“What do you think, the Zhongshan Park to the north of us, you know?”

Xu Dong nodded. Of course he knew that Zhongshan Park was less than two kilometers away from the company.

Section Chief Li whispered: “The big leader is planting trees there, and the reporters have all gone there.”

“Uncle Li, do you think the big leader will come to our place for comfort later?ask. “Xu Dong suddenly thought, anyway, the distance between the two places is not far.

“Don’t think about it, I haven’t received a notice here, and the big leader probably won’t come.” Section Chief Li shook his head.
