Siheyuan Shangpeng

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but clench his fists as he looked at the group of factory leaders in front of him who were trying to hold back their laughter. What he was thinking in his heart was not how ridiculous what he said was, but that if he was an eighth-level worker, these people would definitely not laugh at him like this. It was all the merchants' fault. If they had not returned to Siheyuan and they still had the final say, the steel rolling mill itself would not have stopped at the sixth-level fitter. It was obvious that they had the skills but were not allowed to take the exam.

Yi Zhonghai was also blinding his mind. It was just that the wind had not yet started to blow, and he could still work as a level six worker. When the wind started to blow, Yi Zhonghai would probably regret it to death.

Just when Yi Zhonghai was getting extremely angry, Yang Weimin spoke up: "What are you all thinking? Isn't this a reflection of the inner thoughts of a reformed person? You are mocking a reformed working class person. I..."

"Okay, Deputy Director Yang, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know? Would that worker who secretly processed parts and got injured admit it himself? If it were you, would you admit it? And don't tell me that the workers have high ideological consciousness. How can they have high consciousness if they dare to secretly process parts themselves?

How about this, Yi Zhonghai, after get off work today, you and the security department will go and inform Jia Dongxu, saying that because he was injured because of processing parts without permission, the factory will not want him to pay for the damage to the machine, and he will lose his job. The factory director has decided to fire him. Also, the security department will convey what you said today. Okay, the problem has been solved, let's adjourn!" After saying this, Li Huaide was the first to walk out of the office.

Yi Zhonghai was dumbfounded. No, why didn't this go according to my idea? Shouldn't the factory leaders keep things quiet and become the beneficiaries? How did it become like this? If the security department came to report this after get off work, how could I control the Jia family? I hope the Jia family didn't kill me.

When Yi Zhonghai reacted, Yang Weimin was the only one looking at him in the meeting room. Yi Zhonghai saw the word "stupid" in Yang Weimin's eyes.

Yang Weimin patted Yi Zhonghai's shoulder without saying anything and said, "Okay, I've done it. I'll visit the old lady in person later and talk things out. You don't have to come to me anymore in the future!" After that, he left without caring about Yi Zhonghai's reaction.

Yi Zhonghai was completely at a loss. He didn't mention Yang Weimin, that was just a pretense on his part. The deaf old lady didn't know anything at all. If Yang Weimin went there at night, he would be finished. It was okay to provoke Yang Weimin, but if the old lady knew about this, he would be finished. When Yi Zhonghai thought of the deaf old lady's methods, he was frightened. Although the deaf old lady was very quiet now, the deaf old lady had people killed more than just the Shang family back then. It's just that she had an accident at Shang family's place, and that person was shot dead on the spot without giving the deaf old lady away.

Yi Zhonghai returned to the workshop in a daze, without even having lunch, and just processed parts numbly until the end of the day.

Not to mention Yi Zhonghai, after leaving the meeting room, Yang Weimin did not return to his office but came to Li Huaide. He pushed the door open without knocking. Li Huaide was waiting for him in the office.

The two sat on the sofa in silence. After a long while, Yang Weimin spoke up: "Old Li, thank you for this time. If you hadn't given me advice this time, I still wouldn't be able to repay the old lady's favor. I really feel uneasy!"

Li Huaide smiled and replied, "Old Yang, you are being polite. We are competitors, but we are still comrades. And I admire your management of production. Let's not talk about other things. I will see you off in the canteen tomorrow night!"

Yang Weimin looked at his biggest rival in the steel mill with mixed feelings. If that incident hadn't happened, would he still be the factory director? Thinking about it, it was probably impossible. The current steel mill was under the control of Li Huaide on the surface, but in fact it was under the control of the Shang family brothers. If nothing had happened to him, the Shang family brothers would have let him give up his position because he was not on the same side as them.

He shook his head to get rid of the thoughts in his mind, and then said to Li Huaide: "Old Li, the steel mill will depend on you in the future. I hope that when I come back, I can see that the steel mill has become bigger and stronger. After all, this is also where I have worked hard."

Li Huaide patted Yang Weimin on the shoulder and said in an affirmative tone: "Don't worry, Old Yang, you will see that the steel mill will get better and better in the future!"

Yang Weimin looked at the confident Li Huaide and let go of the last bit of unwillingness in his heart. Even if it were him, he would not be able to do as well as Li Huaide.

He stood up and said to Li Huaide: "Okay, Lao Li, I'm going to check on the workshop. I have to do my last shift!"

Li Huaide stretched out his hand and shook hands with Yang Weimin, and the two said goodbye.

On Li Huaide's desk was a red-headed document regarding Yang Weimin's transfer. Yang Weimin would leave the day after tomorrow morning. The Ministry of Industry transferred Yang Weimin to the southwest to support the third-line construction.

Today is Yang Weimin’s last day at the steel rolling mill. He doesn’t need to come tomorrow. He can pack up at home and leave the day after tomorrow.

In fact, there was no big conflict between Yang Weimin and Li Huaide. It was just that you were blocking my way and you wanted to kick me out to get to the top. In fact, in the original novel, if Li Huaide had worked hard to help Yang Weimin run the steel mill, Yang Weimin would not have been unable to get promoted for more than ten years. In the end, Li Huaide used some means to get rid of Yang Weimin but did not kill him. Later, when Yang Weimin made a comeback, he did not cause trouble for Li Huaide.

Yi Zhonghai was completely at a loss. As soon as the bell rang, Yi Zhonghai had packed up and wanted to run away. He had no better idea. He thought that if he ran away, the security department would not be able to find him, so he would go alone. However, Shang Peng was waiting for him at the workshop door. He said, "Master Yi, you are so enthusiastic. Let's go. Get in the car. The security department is already in the car."

When Yi Zhonghai saw the people from the Security Department sitting in the car and looking at him, he had no choice but to get in the car. However, Yi Zhonghai never expected that after he got in the car, he would be arranged to sit in the middle of the back seat, and all the people sitting there were soldiers from the Security Department. They stared at Yi Zhonghai with two pairs of eyes as if they were holding down a prisoner. Yi Zhonghai was completely numb.

Yi Zhonghai now just wanted Shang Peng to drive slower so that they would never get to the hospital. However, that was just wishful thinking. They arrived at the hospital in a short while. The security soldiers were still following Yi Zhonghai on both sides, like they were carrying a prisoner. Everyone in the hospital was looking at them. Yi Zhonghai felt like he was going to die. He could also see that the patients, doctors and nurses in the hospital were all looking at him, and some were even pointing and talking.
