Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

When we arrived at the factory, the office building was still dead silent, and all the middle and upper-level managers had gloomy faces.

There was a problem with the production in the workshop. The machines stopped since yesterday. The people in the technical department did not go home last night and studied it all night but could not find the problem.

Even Chief Engineer Zhong, who was almost sixty years old, had not slept all night and his eyes were bloodshot.

Director Yang was even more annoyed and cursed in the office.

Yang Chong did not rush over, but stayed in his office to organize documents.

Although they managed to extract the technical information they needed from Robson, it would still take some time to sort it out so that it could be used by the steel mill.

The work in purchasing is now in order and has been assigned to subordinates to complete, so no one comes to disturb him, allowing him to digest the technical documents here in peace.

In the afternoon, there was finally a knock on the quiet office door.

"Come in." Yang Chong responded without even raising his head.

The door opened and the person who came in was the deputy factory director Li Huaide.

"Deputy Director Li? How come you are free today?" Yang Chong asked in surprise.

Li Huaide laughed: "Why, Section Chief Yang is enjoying himself here with Factory Director Yang, so I don't even dare to come here?"

Yang Chong said with a smile: "Deputy Director Li, you are joking. No matter how successful I am, I am still your subordinate. How dare I not let you come? I saw that everyone was busy with technical matters, so how come Deputy Director Li has time to come and sit with me now?"

Li Huaide said, "Speaking of this matter, I won't beat around the bush. As you can see, there is a big problem with the technology in the steel mill, and production has stopped. As the head of the factory, if he can't come up with a solution within three days, then Yang Zhihua will definitely be punished by the organization this time, and he will definitely lose his position as factory director."

Yang Chong still had a smile on his face, but he already knew in his heart why Li Huaide came today.

"Deputy Director Li means..."

Li Huaide closed the door with his hand, walked up to him and whispered, "The higher-ups have already received news. If he can't come up with a solution within three days, the ministry will let me take over as the director of the steel mill."

"It seems that Deputy Director Li has a solution to the problem?" Yang Chong said.

Li Huaide said confidently: "Of course, before the Russian experts withdrew, I realized the seriousness of the problem, so I tried to get along well with them and got what I needed from them. It can be said that if you want to solve the current predicament of the steel mill, there is no other candidate except me, Li Huaide."

Yang Chong's heart moved. He had to admit that Li Huaide was indeed a character. He was able to plan ahead, discover problems in advance, and grasp the core of the problem in his own hands.

In this regard, he is indeed much more clever than Director Yang.

If he were asked to choose a master, there is no doubt that Li Huaide is a more suitable candidate than Director Yang.

But the question is, does Yang Chong need to choose a master?

He doesn't need to rely on anyone's protection.

Now all he has to do is keep his feet on the ground, strike at the right time, and then reach the height he wants step by step.

Therefore, he would not pay attention to anyone's solicitation and would not be the kind of fence-sitter who changes with the wind.

I won't be anyone's dog.

He asked, "Congratulations to Deputy Director Li on his upcoming promotion. I just don't know why Deputy Director Li is telling me this today?"

Li Huaide said, "Now that I have come to this, I am not afraid to bring it up. When I take office, I will definitely make some adjustments to the middle-level personnel in the factory. I will definitely replace those of Yang Zhihua's direct line with my own people. Yang Chong, I value your ability very much, so I tell you this in advance because I want you to be smart and work hard for me. I, Li Huaide, will not treat you unfairly."

After saying that, Li Huaide stared at Yang Chong, waiting for his statement.

However, to his disappointment, Yang Chong just smiled and said, "I feel honored to be valued by Deputy Director Li. Unfortunately, I am not very knowledgeable and have no ability to flatter others. I am afraid that I cannot satisfy Deputy Director Li."

The smile on Li Huaide's face froze: "Yang Chong, do you mean you don't plan to follow me? Do you know the consequences of not following me?"

Yang Chong said, "Of course I know. Didn't Deputy Director Li make it very clear just now? But I, Yang Chong, don't like to take sides, nor do I like to be threatened by others. I just want to do my job well."

Li Huaide's expression became even uglier: "Okay, Yang Chong, since you've said this, I don't want to say more to you. Just take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he turned around, opened the door and left angrily.

Behind him, Yang Chong just snorted and continued to study his technical information.

In fact, Li Huaide was so proud of himself just now that he didn't even look down.

As long as he took a look at the pile of things on the table, he would realize where Yang Chong's confidence came from.

Unfortunately he didn't, because he could never have imagined that Yang Chong, who made his fortune by hunting and purchasing food, would devote himself to studying steel rolling technology.

Li Huaide didn't watch it, but someone else did.

Hou Liqiu has been having a headache these past two days. Although he is the office director and not a technical person, it is not his turn to have a headache.

But the problem is that he has heard news from the ministry that if the problems of the steel mill are not resolved, Director Yang will be transferred away from the position of director of the steel mill and replaced by Li Huaide, whom he had been suppressing before.

Hou Liqiu knew Li Huaide too well. He had already hated him to the core because he had taken away his brother-in-law Zhou Chi's position as the head of the logistics department.

If Li Huaide really came to power, he would be the first one to suffer.

So the technical department couldn't come up with any clues these past two days, and he was getting extremely anxious. As the deadline was getting closer, he felt like the end of the world had come to him.

Today, he felt more and more irritated the longer he stayed in the office. He went to the technical department and saw that he still had no clue. He became more depressed, so he simply went to the purchasing department and wanted to find Yang Chong to have a drink after get off work.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Yang Chong lying on the desk writing and drawing. Hou Likui said unhappily, "You are not from the technical department, why are you drawing here? Do you have any plans after get off work? If not, come and have a drink with me. I heard that there is a tavern on Qianmen Street. The wine there is good and the proprietress is pretty. Let's go over and have a drink to relieve our worries."

Yang Chong waved his hand: "I don't feel like drinking. It's already this late and you still feel like drinking."

Hou Likui said, "I want to drink because I'm upset. If Director Yang is really fired, I will definitely be the first to suffer. Li Huaide has long disliked me because of Zhou Chi's incident. If he really gets promoted, won't he be the first to attack me?"

Yang Chong said: "If you are afraid of bad luck, then quickly find a way to solve the problem. Can drinking solve the problem?"

Hou Likui said: "I am not a technician, so what problems can I solve? Solving the problems depends on the guys in the technical department, but those guys..."

Before he finished speaking, he stared at the things on the table and said, "What are you researching, little bastard?"
