Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

"Can you just write a report directly? He has only been here for a short time. Wouldn't this make it seem like our factory leadership team is exclusive?" Zhang Dabao said.

"What should we do? Who has time to communicate with him over and over again? He is affecting our next work," said Li Huaide.

"Brother Xu, do you have this person's information?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"Da Biao, we are here for work and we can't do anything rash," said Li Huaide.

"It's all for work, otherwise who would care about him? Don't worry, he won't do anything rash. I'll get someone to check him out. If he's clean, nothing's wrong, but if he's full of shit, I'm sorry, if you want to transfer him, you can't do it directly, you have to go inside," said Zhang Dabao.

"That's a solution," Li Huaide agreed.

Xu Sinian nodded without saying anything.

"As for the ship issue, my cousin's husband is trying to find a way, and it should be resolved. Now we just have to wait for the equipment to arrive at the warehouse. How much is the price for the big bid? Our foreign currency reserves may not be enough, so I will apply to the higher authorities if it doesn't work," Li Huaide continued.

"That's great. I was worried about the transportation. I'll ask them to pay them in foreign currency and settle with our money. We'll talk about the price then. I haven't asked for some specifics yet, but it will be at least 20% lower than the market price, and the channels are different," said Zhang Dabao.

"Da Biao, don't be too hard on yourself," Li Huaide said with concern.

"It's not difficult. This is all for the Red Star Factory. If the Red Star Factory is doing well, we will all be well too," said Zhang Dabao.

"That makes sense. Dabiao, this year the factory's counterpart support village has been decided to be Zhangjia Village. Fifty people from the village have come to the factory to do odd jobs. Now we are building a workshop and there are many places to hire people. If you go back, you can find more people," said Li Huaide.

"Really? That's great. The harvest this year is not good and everyone in the village is having a hard time. I'll go back and ask my uncle in a day or two," said Zhang Dabia with a smile.

The three of them chatted for a few more sentences. Li Huaide insisted on staying for dinner and asked Xu Sinian to prepare it. Zhang Dabao had no choice but to agree.

"Da Biao, Yuan Hua is the chief engineer and has connections above him. We must not act rashly without solid evidence," Li Huaide said after seeing Xu Sinian leave.

"No, he must have evidence of illegal activities. Even if he doesn't have any, he will have it. Whoever stands in our way must die," said Zhang Dabao.

Li Huaide should have understood what Zhang Dabiao said, and he didn't say anything else, just sighed. In fact, it is like this in the workplace. If you block someone's way, it is like killing their parents, which is an irreconcilable feud.

"Is Da Biao back?" Wang Cheng pushed open the door of Li Huaide's office and came in.

"Uncle Wang, I just came back today, and I heard your good news as soon as I entered the factory." Zhang Dabao stood up.

"What good thing? Ask Lao Li, is it better to be a factory director or a deputy factory director? I think it's better to stick to my old profession, the things there are simple and easy to handle. Unlike now, there are a lot of messes every day, which is so annoying," said Wang Cheng.

"I know you don't smoke, so I brought you a small radio. I brought cigarettes to smokers." Zhang Dabao took out the gifts from the bag and gave Li Huaide two packs of cigarettes and a small radio, and Wang Cheng a radio; Xu Sinian and Liu Lehe left their gifts in Li Huaide's office.

Zhang Dabao said something to the two of them, then went downstairs with a small bag. He gave a pack of cigarettes to Zhiyong, Niu Kewu, and Hu Kexue, said a few words to everyone, and then returned to the factory director's office.

"Uncle Liu" Liu Le also came. Except for the new chief engineer Yuan Hua, the entire team of the steel rolling mill was present. After exchanging a few words, everyone went to the small canteen together.

"Brother Zhu" Zhang Dabao greeted He Yuzhu, who turned around, smiled and continued with his work.

In the office building, Tian Qiming and Zhao Lan now rely on the new chief engineer Yuan Hua, because when Zhao Lan worked in the department, Yuan Hua was her superior department leader.

"Brother Tian, ​​are the factory directors going to have a meeting?" Zhao Lan saw Li Huaide and others leaving the office building. She saw them from the first floor.

"Why hold a meeting when it's almost time to get off work? What do they mean without Director Yuan?" Tian Qiming said.

"What's the point? Just exclude him. It seems these people have something to hide," said Zhao Lan.

"Should we tell Director Yuan?" Tian Qiming asked Zhao Lan.

"It's better to tell us so that Director Yuan can be prepared in advance," said Zhao Lan.

So Tian Qiming ran out of the office, went to Yuan Hua's office, and explained the situation to him.

"Old Tian, ​​we have a long way to go. Look at what a good factory has been ruined by these people. Is it still the people's factory? Any product with the slightest defect has to be remelted. This is disrespectful to the production results and a waste," said Yuan Hua.

"Old Tian, ​​do you know what they are going to do?" Yuan Hua asked again.

"I went to the canteen and saw Li Huaide's cousin Zhang Dabao among the group of people," said Tian Qiming.

"Going to eat, eating public meals, and doing personal business, isn't this a waste? I understand, I will definitely report this to Minister Wang in the department," said Yuan Hua.

Tian Qiming went out, and Yuan Hua took out a small notebook from the drawer, on which was written "On such-and-such a day and time in such-and-such a year, Li Huaide went to do something, and Wang Cheng went to do something else...." As long as they were members of the factory leadership team, he had a record of them, and he made another entry today.

Zhang Dabao and the factory leaders had a simple meal in the small canteen, discussed matters concerning overseas orders, and provided prospects for the next steps of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

He Yuzhu waited until everyone left and returned to Yard 95 with Zhang Dabao.

At the gate of the courtyard, they saw Liu Haizhong, who was drunk again. He walked with a staggering gait and it seemed that he had drunk quite a lot.

"Is this Liu Haizhong?" Zhang Dabao asked He Yuzhu.

"Isn't it? Liu Haizhong has been going out drinking frequently in recent times. Could it be that he is celebrating the end of summer and the reduction in the smell in the toilet?" He Yuzhu said disdainfully.

"Did someone invite him to dinner, or did he go drinking alone?" Zhang Dabao asked again.

"Who knows? No one talks to him now. Not to mention the bad smell on his body, he also has a bad temper and curses at people at every turn," said He Yuzhu.

"Your temper has also increased?" Zhang Dabao felt that something was wrong, so he contacted a crow he had placed at the gate of the yard and asked it to monitor Liu Haizhong to see who he had been dealing with more recently.

"Seventh uncle, you're back. I missed you so much." Banggeng heard the voices of Zhang Dabao and He Yuzhu and ran over from the backyard.

"I'm going to the factory to eat. Banggeng, I feel that you have grown a lot taller. It seems that you really listen to your grandma," said Zhang Dabao, touching Banggeng's fat face.

"I eat well, sleep well, listen to my teacher and my grandma, exercise regularly at school, and work regularly at home. Of course, I grow fast," Banggeng said proudly.

"I didn't notice that you were tall, but I really felt that you were fat. Why do you, a child, eat so much? Do you look good being so fat?" Jia Dongxu said.
