Siheyuan Shangpeng

Chapter 140: The Quiet Steel Mill

Shang Peng looked at the two stupid brothers, sighed and said, "Big brother's girlfriend is coming. If our future sister-in-law comes back, will big brother have to get married? If he gets married, how can we live in this small courtyard? Wouldn't that delay big brother from getting you a niece or nephew? So we have to move! Do you understand?"

Both of them shook their heads. Shang Peng covered his face, shook his head and said, "You won't understand even if I tell you. Just do as I say. You don't have to move for the time being. But, isn't it time for you to go home?

Mr. Jun will not come tomorrow. He will come after the Chinese New Year. Why are you hanging around here instead of going home? I will inform your dad tomorrow and ask him to take you back home in the evening."

Li Tie shouted directly: "No, I don't want to go back. It's so boring to go back."

Shang Peng rejected it directly and said, "No, the New Year is coming soon. If your mother knew that there are no classes, she would come and beat me up if you don't go home. You must leave tomorrow!"

Li Tie whispered, "I'm not dealing with you, I'm not dealing with me!"

"What did you say?" Shang Peng asked suddenly.

Li Tie shuddered, raised his head and said flatteringly: "Nothing, I said I will definitely leave tomorrow."

Shang Liang interrupted at this time: "Third brother, he said that Auntie came to deal with you but not him."

Li Tie looked at Shang Liang in shock. How could a person be like this? While Li Tie was shocked, Shang Peng said sinisterly, "Really? Then I will deal with you now."

"No, ah... Brother, Brother Peng... I was wrong, I was really wrong, it hurts! It hurts! It hurts! Shang Liang, just wait for me..."

Shang Peng suppressed Li Tie with one hand and pulled Shang Liang over with the other hand and said, "Good brothers should be neat and tidy, haha..."

Shang Liang also shouted loudly: "Third brother, I didn't say anything about you, ah..."

Shang Peng played with the two boys for a while. Then the three of them looked back and found Shang Liang still grinning foolishly. They immediately felt bored, so they washed up and went to bed.

The next morning, Shang Peng and Shang Qi finished their boxing practice and found Shang Qi still sitting there grinning. He couldn't help but walk up to him, patted Shang Qi on the shoulder and said, "No way, big brother, you've been grinning here all night?"

Shang Qi slapped Shang Peng's hand away in annoyance and said, "What do you mean I just got up in the middle of the night? Come on, tell those two kids to go out for dinner." After saying that, he took the lead and walked out.

Shang Peng shook his head and muttered softly, "People in love are so scary!" and quickly followed.

After breakfast, Shang Qi sent the two children home and drove to work. Shang Peng still walked to work. According to Shang Peng, taking a walk after dinner will make you live to be ninety-nine. He would never say that Shang Qi's car was too broken and he was afraid it would explode.

Arriving at the steel mill, it was still a day of guiding the workshop to rectify and improve. After yesterday's chaos, there have been great improvements today. Shang Peng believed that the transformation would be basically completed after the New Year, and the plan could be implemented at that time.

It was still a quiet day. Shang Peng was a little confused. Shouldn't the employees of the steel mill have complaints? Why was it so quiet? There was no movement at all. Something was wrong.

The steel mill had been very quiet for four days in a row. The salary would be cut tomorrow, so Shang Peng wandered around the steel mill. When passing by a small warehouse, Shang Peng, who was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, heard people whispering in the warehouse, and there were several people in the warehouse. Shang Peng couldn't help but become interested and secretly stopped at the door.

Then I heard the voices of several workers coming from inside.

"What do you think the factory leaders are doing? Standardized management, I think they are just looking for trouble."

"Dog, don't talk nonsense. Don't you feel it? I also felt uncomfortable on the first day, but after a few days, I found something. Now I can find things much faster than before, and didn't you notice that the hygiene of the workshop has improved a lot in the past few days? Anyway, I like working in this environment. Do you want to go back to the dirty and messy environment before?"

"No, Jun, I was just complaining. I didn't cause any trouble."

"It's better not to go. I feel these regulations are very good for us. I can't explain why they are good, but I feel that they are much better than before. Besides, it's not a big deal if you tidy up more and put things in order.

Okay, we've had enough rest, let's go back, the director will be looking for us again soon."

When Shang Peng heard that they were about to come out, he didn't hide, but waited at the door for them to come out.

After a few people came out of the warehouse, they found Shang Peng looking at them with a smile, and they were all stunned.

One of them said, "Shang... Engineer Shang, what are you doing?"

Shang Peng replied: "It's okay, I was just eavesdropping on your conversation."

Several people had black lines on their faces. No, brother, you just eavesdropped, but why do you say it out loud so blatantly? Is this really okay?

Shang Peng waved his hand and said to them, "Don't worry, just send someone, um, you, don't look at it, just you, go back to the workshop and inform your director, and tell him that I have something to talk to you about. Come back after you're done, I'll be waiting for you in the warehouse." After that, he took the lead and walked into the small warehouse.

The person who was pointed out went to the workshop to report to the director dejectedly, and the remaining few people followed Shang Peng back to the small warehouse.

Shang Peng pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one for himself, and handed the rest to one of them, saying, "Light them up, and let's talk while we smoke."

The remaining few people also lit cigarettes and smoked with Shang Peng. After a while, the tension dissipated a lot.

Shang Peng saw that it was almost time, and after the person who reported the news came back and lit a cigarette, he asked, "I didn't call you here for anything else, I just wanted to know your views on the new regulations. I heard everything outside just now. Some people agree, and some have some minor objections. Tell me, so that I can understand the opinions of the workers here."

No one said anything. Shang Peng looked at them and said, "It's okay. I just want to know your opinions on the new regulations. There won't be any consequences. Besides, I can't control you, right? Um, who among you is Jun Ge? Okay, you're the one!"

The one called Jun Ge, with a bitter face, asked, "Engineer Shang, are you really okay?"

Shang Peng smiled and replied, "Don't worry, speak boldly. What can I do to you? We are about the same age. I am just a little better at studying. But if we talk about hands-on operation, I really can't compare with you."

The guy called Jun Ge started talking as if he had made up his mind.
