Early in the morning, in the finance department's office, the cashier said to Li Chuchu with a troubled look, "Comrade Li, we've called you here to discuss something. Although the factory director has allocated funds for this event, we've used up all our vouchers to prepare the Mid - Autumn Festival benefits for the employees. It's really difficult to prepare the prizes for this program now."
The accountant was also in the office. Frowning and scowling, he insinuated, "How can they handle things like this? Suddenly adding a new program. Don't the prizes need time to prepare? Now we have money but no vouchers. We can't even buy pens or notebooks. If something goes wrong later, they'll surely blame the finance department. If you don't have the skills, don't take on difficult tasks!"
These people just dumped the matter on the finance department without considering the consequences and then walked away carefree. And once something was missing, they would complain. Did they think the things would just appear out of thin air? It was really hard for the finance department!
The cashier was a bit headache - stricken. "This is a bit of a trouble. Comrade Li, do you have any good ideas?"
The factory director had already paid out of his own pocket, and over a hundred contestants and all the employees were watching this program. If they couldn't come up with decent prizes, the finance department would surely be drowned in their complaints. It was like putting them on the fire.
This program was proposed by Li Chuchu. Anyway, she should contribute. She was the organizer. If this thing went wrong, she would lose face too!
Thinking of this, the cashier's tone was filled with a bit of resentment. "Comrade Li, this matter is of great importance. All the leaders in the factory are watching. We can't afford any mistakes. But the finance department has exhausted all our efforts..."
The cashier's eyes were so resentful that they could kill. It was almost as if the words "You caused this, so you clean up the mess" were written on his face.
There had been no such program in previous years. It suddenly appeared this year. Maybe this young girl just wanted to show off through this program.
Never mess with workers in the early morning. Their resentment was comparable to that of an evil sword immortal.
Li Chuchu helplessly rubbed her temples. She had been called here so early in the morning for this matter.
She actually had a way to get things without vouchers. But if she really did that, wouldn't they question where the things came from?
Li Chuchu stood still as if lost in deep thought for a long time. Finally, she sighed. "Since I'm the organizer, I should be responsible for this matter. Well, give me the procurement task and the funds. I'll solve it."
The cashier looked at Li Chuchu in confusion. "How can you solve it?"
Look, even the cashier knew this was an impossible task. Calling her here was just to find someone else to share the responsibility, wasn't it?
Li Chuchu knew exactly what these people were thinking. But adhering to the good virtue of not making things difficult for fellow workers, she sighed and said regretfully, "I have some industrial vouchers. I originally planned to save them for house decoration. I'll use them to cover this for now. After all, I've caused trouble for everyone. As long as I can contribute to the factory, it doesn't matter if I make a personal sacrifice."
At this moment, the cashier felt as if a strong light flashed before his eyes. It seemed that a few dazzling holy lights suddenly shone from Comrade Li. She was actually sacrificing her own interests for the factory!
The cashier was greatly shocked and extremely ashamed. "Comrade Li, I didn't call you here to let you make up for this shortfall. And..." And it didn't make sense to pay for work when you were just earning a hard - earned salary. He couldn't say the rest of the words. But Li Chuchu said firmly, "As long as I can solve the factory's urgent problem, I'm willing to make a contribution."
Her expression and posture were full of perseverance and unyieldingness, with a firm and pure look on her face. She was simply a good young person with correct values in the new era.
It was previously heard that Li Chuchu's mother died while saving the factory from a fire. No wonder her daughter was so outstanding.
And he had actually had the idea of making things difficult for Comrade Li just now. He would surely slap himself if he thought about it before going to bed at night.
The cashier was speechless. The accountant beside him also shut up.
If Li Chuchu had just donated the industrial vouchers voluntarily, people might say she was just seeking fame. But now she was clearly taking on the finance department's problem. This left no room for anyone to say a single word.
The cashier handed the funds to Li Chuchu while being extremely touched. "Comrade Li, don't worry. The factory will surely not let you contribute in vain. Next month, the industrial vouchers you subsidized will be returned to you along with your salary."
Li Chuchu took the money wrapped in an envelope. Before leaving, she politely said to the cashier and the accountant, "Thank you for your trouble."
This thank - you really flattered these two old hands in the finance department. Not only did she solve the problem, but she was also so polite.
After Li Chuchu left, the cashier sat at his workstation, deeply doubting himself. In all his years as a cashier, he had never seen such a dedicated young comrade. He had judged the noble with a petty mind. Should he reflect on his calculating way of thinking?
The accountant was silently writing in the ledger. Suddenly, he said, "Comrade Li is really dedicated to the factory. It's normal to add a new item to the Mid - Autumn Festival party."
The cashier immediately said, "Yes, and actually this should be our job. We just called her here to discuss. Our tone should have been nicer."
After saying that, they glanced at each other and fell into even deeper silence. They really deserved to die for making things difficult for that young girl.
...
After Li Chuchu walked out of the door, the firm and pure expression on her face immediately became calm. Without saying a word, she opened the "Admirer Mall".
The metal - shell thermos cost six yuan each, the enamel washbasin cost three yuan and fifty cents each, and the pen cost two yuan each. She bought four of each kind as prizes for the first, second, and third - place winners. In addition, Li Chuchu also bought some certificates.
These things cost a little over forty yuan in total. There was still some money left after using the sixty - yuan allocated by the factory director. The next day, Li Chuchu returned all the remaining money to the finance department.
The cashier looked at the pile of things behind her and was speechless for a long time. Finally, he patted Li Chuchu on the shoulder. "Comrade Li, you're really amazing! Having a dedicated talent like you in our factory is really the pride of our factory. I'll report this to the leaders."
Li Chuchu was already used to hearing such empty praise every day. She still politely said, "Thank you for your recognition. I still have work to do. I'll go first."
The cashier quickly said, "Go ahead, go ahead."
...
On the night of the Mid - Autumn Festival party, Li Chuchu was standing on the stage in a white belted dress. The belt outlined her extremely slender waist. She was wearing leather shoes, and her exposed lower legs were thin and straight.
The dress on her fit perfectly. It wasn't too showy and was very suitable for such an occasion. She was full of energy.
Many people had only heard of Li Chuchu's name but had never seen her. When they saw her in person this time, they were greatly amazed by her beauty.
"Wow! I didn't expect Li Chuchu to be so beautiful!"
