Chapter 121, Little Steward
Ricky was surprised.
"What...are you doing now?"
He is not blind, he can see that Oceana's status here is not low.
"Uh... I'm just a small steward." That's all Ossena could say.
The clerk who was about to go out to deliver the materials accidentally laughed out loud.
The ‘little’ one is in charge.
Your eldest lady is now the head of the Production Department directly appointed by the Governor. Without any other civil affairs departments being established or actually serving, you can be regarded as the de facto top civil affairs manager of the entire Fuxing City.
Is this also called a ‘little’ person in charge?
Hearing the laughter, Oceana glared fiercely at the clerk.
The clerk smiled at her, rubbed oil on her soles and quickly yo-yoed.
Looking away, she smiled awkwardly at Ricky: "My colleague is not very sensible..."
“There’s no need to explain too much.”
Even if Ricky is not a human spirit, he has at least been hanging around in the wasteland for a long time. If he can't see something, he would be too stupid.
His attitude became a little reserved.
The two were acquaintances in the past.
On the way to Fuxing City, Oceana was actually traveling with Ricky's team. During her escape and during her time in Fuxing City, she received a lot of help from Ricky.
Ricky was not helping her specifically, but he was a rare person who was fair and loyal. On the way to escape, including settling in a small neighborhood in Fuxing City, having this was already of great help to Oceana, a little girl who was raising a younger brother to survive.
Of course, if you are not a relative or a friend, the help can only go so far. Later, it was Oceana leaving Fuxing City with her younger brother.
Ricky said: "Before, someone said that they heard your speech and that you became a clerk under the Governor. I was happy for you. But I didn't expect that it turned out to be more than just a clerk."
"I heard at that time that you and your brother drank a bowl of porridge and were taken to the governor's camp. I thought you were deceived. After all, where can such good things happen in this world? But, I didn't expect it. It’s just that I’m short-sighted. You’re doing well now, so that’s fine.”
Oceana smiled: "It's not a very good life. I haven't slept for almost two days. Besides, I came to Uncle Ricky this time for business."
"What's the serious thing you're talking about?" Ricky looked very cautious, and he was a little afraid of falling into a pit.
But Oceana had already furiously pulled out a rough plan from the pile of paper under the table.
"Look at this."
"This is..." Ricky took a second look. Although he couldn't quite understand many of the detailed parameters on the plan, he quickly got the impression just by looking at the plan: "This is our A block? But..."
What a big change!
But how much would it cost to do this?
"Farewell comes and goes." Oceana said, "Uncle Ricky is not the kind of indecisive person that I remember. I'll tell you what I have to say. I'm not just bringing you here just to reminisce about old times. You've also seen it. , I have a lot of work now and am very busy. I came to you because I hope you can help me.”
"How can I help you..." Ricky instinctively wanted to refuse. Everything was too unknown. He didn't want to be confused about everything, so he just stepped in.
But Oceana waved her hand.
She is no longer the little girl who was tough inside and soft outside, or in other words, her inner toughness has not changed, but she has understood that sometimes she needs to express this toughness if she wants to achieve her goals. outside.
She said with some certainty: "Uncle Ricky, don't refuse me. Your prestige in the neighborhood and your good reputation will be of great help to me. I am too short of people to handle things now." I need helpers who are reliable enough in terms of character and ability to help me accelerate my work.”
"This matter is not only my matter, not just the governor's order, but also for the benefit of the people of the entire city. Even if you don't look at other aspects, just look at the neighborhood where we were originally, do you want to Go back to your old life, or do you want to live in the house in my drawing? ”
Ricky said helplessly: "Then I definitely want to live in the house you painted..."
"Then come and help me. I guarantee that you can live in the house. Just working for me and working in the new government will be enough for you to live in the house. And your work will also help more people Live in and I guarantee that you will become a more respectable person in the future.”
"I seem to have no choice."
"Yes, you have no choice." Oceana smiled, stretched out her hand, and continued to the man in front of her, "But I promise you will not regret it, never."
"Okay." Ricky sighed and continued: "What exactly do you want me to do?"
"Find more reliable manpower, organize the team, and do things more efficiently according to our plan. We must let everyone understand and let everyone believe that what we are doing now is for our own tomorrow. A better life. In this regard, our political commissars, those red hats, will help you. But our people don’t know enough about the situation in Fuxing City. We need locals like you to organize the team, distribute food, and supervise the progress of the work... ”
She began to tell Ricky about specific matters in detail.
Ricky was also listening very carefully.
……
In fact, Ricky was not the only person Oceana found.
In the process of clearing the ruins and rebuilding the city, Oceana encountered too many problems.
She has already counted the manpower needed by factories and businesses in the city that need to resume operations. She hopes that the corresponding workers and employees will go back to work when they need to.
And a large number of people who had no jobs, or whose jobs were ruined due to this disaster, temporarily changed their jobs to construction workers. Through the work-for-relief method, urban infrastructure was also built.
But when it came time for more refined management, Oceana found that her control was simply not enough.
She did not have enough manpower to observe every construction team and every area with her ideas and plans. When she was making a series of plans, she also lacked manpower to help her.
Now, this issue is not particularly salient. During the rescue and disaster relief process, the army, which still maintained its organization, was helping her. But this situation obviously cannot last long.
She had to build an administrative team.
Among the poor people in the outer city, there are people with good reputations, people with reputation, people with professional abilities...Osena works hard to fish out these people and fill them into her own administrative structure.
But this is not enough.
Among the poor people in the outer city, there are really only a few people like me who have a relatively good educational background, but there are many more people in the inner city.
In this regard, she has already gone to Lambert.
