Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Chapter 44 Li Huaide's Speculation

In a steel rolling mill, it is very easy for a deputy director to find out who asked his superior to stop the car and talk. He just needs to ask the security department.

Yes, this is a big deal. For some people, the leader’s preferences, personal connections, etc. are all big deals.

Li Huaide received the report from his secretary and murmured, "Zeng Wangcai? He's new here. What's his relationship with the leader that made the leader go against his previous style and openly stop to talk to him?"

To be honest, not only Li Huaide couldn't figure it out, but even the person involved, Old Man Liu, probably didn't expect that he would do something that was not in line with his style under the circumstances at the time.

As a person of Liu Laotou's level, it is impossible for him not to understand the impact of stopping the car and asking questions at that time.

When Old Man Liu went home that day, he couldn't sleep. He couldn't understand how someone could be so lucky. It was like the Dragon King had been reincarnated and he could cast the hook like a god.

So when he saw Zeng Wangcai again, Old Man Liu asked the driver to stop the car for some reason and confirmed whether Zeng Wangcai would go fishing again on Sunday. He wanted to see if Zeng Wangcai would still be as lucky.

Li Huaide naturally couldn't guess that Zeng Wangcai and Old Man Liu had this kind of relationship. He instructed his secretary: "Xiao Yan, go to the second floor personnel department and hand over Section Chief Yu. Um... ask him to bring Zeng Wangcai's materials."

"Okay, Director!" Secretary Yan quickly agreed and went downstairs.

When Section Chief Yu learned that Li Huaide had indeed asked him to question him and also asked him to bring Zeng Wangcai's materials, he was sure in his heart that what Director Zhang said was true.

After getting Zeng Wangcai's materials, Section Chief Yu followed Secretary Yan up the stairs to the second floor. The offices of the three factories were on the left side of the corridor, and the office of the director-level cadre was on the right side of the corridor.

Section Chief Yu came to the door of the second office, knocked and went in.

"Director Li, you're looking for me?" Section Chief Yu put on a smile. She didn't dare to offend this cadre. In private occasions, she didn't dare to call him "deputy".

This is the dregs that everyone dislikes, and it is also considered "sensible" in the eyes of some people. As for whether this culture is dregs or sensible, that is a matter of opinion.

"Xiao Yu is here, please sit down!" Li Huaide pointed to the chair opposite his desk with a smile.

Section Chief Yu shuddered inwardly and was a little afraid of Li Huaide's smile.

It's not just her. In fact, all the women in the steel mill who have no feelings towards Li Huaide are afraid of Li Huaide's smile.

The reason is simple. Li Huaide is the number one thief in the steel rolling mill and a pervert.

"Director Li, here are the materials you requested!" Section Chief Yu gently handed Zeng Wangcai's materials, and at the same time, he quickly took them back without leaving any trace, and began to introduce them considerately, "Zeng Wangcai graduated from high school, and is a special talent recruited by the factory. He is going to work in the Propaganda Department. He came here to report today. The formalities for organizational relations and other procedures have been completed. The only thing left is salary grading. Take a look at his grading..."

She didn't mention Zeng Wangcai's connections. One reason was that such things couldn't be said openly. Second, Section Chief Yu knew what Li Huaide was going to ask. She thought that no matter what connections Zeng Wangcai had, they were nothing at this level. There was no need to introduce him at all. Just let things take their course.

"This calligraphy... is really beautiful." Li Huaide praised Zeng Wangcai's calligraphy sincerely, "This kind of calligraphy is perfect for writing materials."

He just said this briefly and didn't say much more, but an idea already existed in his mind.

As a leading cadre, it is necessary to write materials to report work on a regular basis. If the materials submitted to superiors are written in such good handwriting, it will undoubtedly add points.

However, Section Chief Yu understood. With her status as a person, she naturally had the ability to observe people's expressions and listen to the hidden meaning behind their words.

In a steel rolling mill, there are generally two types of people who can copy materials for the factory director. The first type is the secretary, and the second type is the factory office staff.

Of course, the chaotic times of wind and rain in the future do not count.

Section Chief Yu didn't say much and pretended not to understand what Li Huaide said. She knew which words to respond to and which not to respond to.

"Xiao Yu, how much do you know about Zeng Wangcai?" Li Huaide spoke again.

"Well, I know a little bit." As the head of the personnel department, he couldn't say that he didn't know about this issue. "Zeng Wangcai reported for duty accompanied by their street director. Their director had a very good impression of Zeng Wangcai. The materials also proved that Zeng Wangcai was a very good young man. He usually had a very good reputation in the street and among the neighbors..."

This is the main job of the Personnel Department and also a reflection of the role of the street. It can be regarded as a characteristic of the times, a bit like background check.

Of course, this was not what Li Huaide wanted to know. He asked directly, "Xiao Yu, you know that the leader came to inspect the factory today. It was very sudden, but when the leader came into the factory, he stopped and chatted with Zeng Wangcai for a few words. You should understand what I mean, right?"

"I understand!" Chief Yu replied, "I really don't know about this matter, and Zeng Wangcai didn't say anything either, but Director Zhang from the street should know about it. How about this, I'll go ask him after get off work today?"

"Don't leave work, go now. Let's put Zeng Wangcai's salary level aside for now. Let's understand it clearly first." Li Huaide changed his tone and said earnestly, "Leaders are very busy and can't take care of everything. Some leaders will even... in order to avoid suspicion, forget it. In short, we can't let talents be buried."

Although there is no conclusion yet, Li Huaide guessed that Zeng Wangcai must have a relationship with the leader, and the leader is a principled person who will not do anything that violates the principles. In this case, it is always good for you to do more.

Section Chief Yu wanted to understand the spirit this time, and hurriedly said: "Director Li is right. We all need to learn from you. Then I will go and understand... uh, care about the lives of the factory workers."

"Yes, Xiaoyu, you are right, go quickly."

"Okay, Director Li, you go ahead and do your work."

Section Chief Yu took a few steps back with a smile on his face, slowly turned around and walked out, gently closing the door.

"Tsk, old pervert!" As soon as he walked out of the door, Section Chief Yu's smile disappeared immediately, and he spat and cursed in a voice that he could hear himself.

She backed away just now, not because she respected Li Huaide, but because she knew that as long as she turned around, the old pervert would stare at her waist and hips, which was too disgusting.

After returning to the office, Section Chief Yu gave a few instructions to his subordinates, prepared the materials, packed them into his bag, and left work early.

"Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, you are right..." As soon as Section Chief Yue entered the office of Director Zhang of the street office, he started talking loudly.

At the same time, the Zeng family in Siheyuan.

Chen Yumei prepared the meal and the family ate together, except Zeng Wangcai was not at home.

"Here, your boss bought you some wine. He said it's good." Chen Yumei took out Zeng Wangcai's military canteen filled with Wuliangye and placed it on the table, muttering, "I don't know where the boss is. He went to report to the steel mill today. He didn't even come back to tell me the result of such a big thing. After dinner, go ask his father what level the boss's salary will be assigned."

"Whatever level you change to, it's what level you change to. Where can I ask? I don't understand this." Zeng Youqian said unhappily.

He felt that he had found all the connections he needed, and it was already good enough for his son to go to the publicity department of the steel rolling mill. The lower the level, the better. There was nowhere else to put his energy anyway, so asking was unnecessary.

"Then don't drink anymore. You don't care about your son's affairs at all. His love for you is in vain." Chen Yumei was furious and put away the wine jug.

Zeng Youqian had a headache. Drinking after get off work was one of his few hobbies. No matter how difficult his family was, he would only reduce the quality and quantity of the wine but could not stop drinking.

I would rather die than not drink.

"Alright, alright, I'm scared of you. I'll go ask. Give me the wine!"

"Ask and come back to drink."

"You old woman, you don't have a knockout ticket, where can I go to ask with nothing? Among those people in the middle and back yards, which one is the easy one?"

He said that it would be whatever happened, but in fact, how could he not care? However, he really didn't understand these things, so he could only take the wine and plan to go to the middle and back yard to ask Yi Zhonghai or Liu Haizhong.
