Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95

Today is the first Monday of October, so all the people in the purchasing department are present. As soon as Zhao Shanhe entered the office, he was grabbed by Wang Gang and kept asking questions.

"Shanhe, I heard that you took a photo with the leader? Is that true? Is the gold medal pure gold? Why didn't you bring it to the factory for everyone to see?"

Zhao Shanhe was really impressed by this chatterbox. He didn't know whether the gold medal was made of pure gold, but could he show it off? As for taking a photo with the "leader", it was true, but it was a family heirloom, and it was even more impossible to take it out in private.

Before he could reply, he was bullied by other people in the purchasing department. For example, Wang Tiecheng knew that he had applied for marriage and was going to get the marriage certificate on November 1, so he asked him for wedding candy. Zhao Chunjiang and Zhang Li started to urge him to treat them to a meal. In the end, it was Sister Chen who helped him out, but he was confused by just one sentence.

"Shanhe, Wang Yong ran away with the money. Did you know about this?"

"Sister Chen, are you talking about Wang Yong, the deputy director of our purchasing department? Did he run away with the money?"

Chen Lijuan fiddled with the ends of her hair and nodded in response.

"Yes, I heard that he ran away on October 1st and took away a lot of money from the purchasing department. The police are looking for him now. If you have any clues, please report them in time."

On the National Day, Zhao Shanhe was watching the parade and performance with Chen Xueru. How could he have the mind to think about anything else? However, after listening to Chen Lijuan's words, he still didn't quite understand. Wang Yong's work ability was usually okay. Although his interpersonal relationships were very bad because of the Lou family, he shouldn't abscond with the money, right?

However, he didn't dare to ask about the matter. After all, the other party was an old man from the Lou family. Who knew what troubles had happened? Maybe he had run away to Hong Kong Island?

He had heard from the naive Lou Xiao'e that her brother had disappeared just after the liberation. When Zhao Shanhe heard the news, he knew that the Lou family must have played both sides. Lou Bancheng's son disappeared in Sijiucheng, just like Li Gangcheng's son disappeared in Hong Kong. Do you believe this? Only naive people can believe it.

If he runs away, Uncle Yao and Li Lianjie will be in big trouble. One of them is his direct superior and the other is his colleague. Li Huaide has a strong backing and a high position, so it is estimated that the fire will not fall on this person, and these two will have to take the blame.

Sure enough, after a while Li Lianjie came over and told everyone to go to the meeting, and everyone stood up and went to the meeting room.

In the Logistics Department's conference room, Li Huaide sat in the main seat, looking at the people below with a sullen face and spoke.

"This meeting is urgently held today because we have something to inform you. Wang Yong, deputy chief of the Purchasing Section of the Logistics Department, ran away with the money that was to be used to purchase work clothes, gloves and shoes for the employees on October 1, National Day.

I don't need to say much about the seriousness and badness of the situation. The public security system has already issued a wanted order. The purpose of this meeting is to inform our comrades. Whoever finds any clues will report them immediately and the factory will commend him heavily.

Comrades, you must learn from this incident and take what you shouldn't. You must know that the net of justice is vast and will catch anyone who tries to take something. Wang Yong is getting old and confused. Even if he can run, where can he escape to without a letter of introduction?

Lian Jie, Lao Yao, do you two have anything else to add?"

How could Li Lianjie and Yao Decai still have the mood to talk at this time? They wanted to catch Wang Yong and stab him. In half a month, the secretary would retire. They had a chance to make further progress. Now that such a big mess had happened, it was good enough that they were not punished.

After the meeting, Li Huaide called Zhao Shanhe to his office, and his attitude was very different from that in the previous meeting.

"Shanhe, yesterday there were too many people at your wedding so I couldn't give it to you. You really made our First Machinery Industry Ministry and the Steel Rolling Mill proud this time."

As he spoke, he took out three envelopes from the drawer and handed them to Zhao Shanhe.

"This is a reward from the First Ministry of Machine Building, the Propaganda Department and the factory. In addition, because of these two contributions, your promotion to deputy section chief has been finalized. If I hadn't blocked it, your file would have been in the First Ministry of Machine Building by now. You won't blame me for delaying your advancement, right?"

Zhao Shanhe took the three envelopes, and when he heard Li Huaide's words, he waved his hands and replied with a smile on his face.

"How can that be possible? If I go to the department at my level, I probably won't even be able to get a number for fetching water or sweeping the floor. It's better to be in the factory. Working with Director Li, the work is much easier."

"Haha, I love listening to you talk."

Seeing that Li Huaide had no intention of seeing him off, Zhao Shanhe knew that the other party still had something to talk to him about, so he stood up, picked up the thermos and poured a glass of water for Li Huaide and himself respectively, and then waited for the other party to continue talking.

Li Huaide took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhao Shanhe, then lit one for himself before speaking.

"Brother Zhao, I'm a few years older than you. Is it okay to call you brother?"

Of course Zhao Shanhe would not refuse. This was the leader trying to show goodwill to him. He was eager to get closer to Li Huaide. After all, he was the weather vane of the factory when the wind started.

"Director Li, I am grateful for your care over the past six months. Otherwise, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Li Huaide was very satisfied with Zhao Shanhe's attitude. This kid was not only capable in procurement, sports, and literature and art, but he also made much faster progress than others in social skills.

"After you were promoted to deputy section chief this time, have you considered which department you should go to? We have quite a few logistics departments. If you have any ideas, I can still help you with them."

Zhao Shanhe guessed that this was another test by Li Huaide, because no leader likes subordinates who like to act on their own, especially the logistics department which basically belongs to this person's back garden. It is just a matter of a word for him to decide who to send to which department.

After thinking it through, Zhao Shanhe quickly expressed his opinion.

"Director, I can go to any department. I'm part of the logistics department wherever I go. As long as I can continue to work under you, I won't be picky even if I have to sit on the bench."

Li Huaide was even more satisfied with Zhao Shanhe after seeing his statement. He thought that it was a good opportunity that Wang Yong ran away this time, leaving a vacant position. The Logistics Department should also adjust the positions of various departments before he becomes the deputy factory director. They should give him some rewards and rewards, and don't wait until he leaves to create his own factions, otherwise a good thing would turn into a bad thing.

"Well, Brother Zhao, you should be more diligent in the factory during this period, so that we can find you when the time comes. As for your position, I and other leaders will study it again. After all, it will be decided by vote in the end."

Zhao Shanhe left Li Huaide's office and returned to the purchasing department. He saw that everyone had left. He didn't know whether to say that these people had low political awareness or were just here to get by, but the bottom line was that they had no sense at all.

I went to Uncle Yao's office and comforted him, telling him that even if he was punished, it was because he took the blame for Li Huaide. As long as Director Li was there, he would be able to get it back sooner or later.

Yao Decai was also confused by the situation. After listening to Zhao Shanhe's detailed explanation of the matter, he finally calmed down a little. The matter was a foregone conclusion, and he could only think optimistically.

Since Li Huaide had spoken, Zhao Shanhe would definitely not leave early like he did before. He read newspapers and drank a lot of tea in the purchasing department's large conference room all day. Finally, he heard the bell for the end of get off work, and then he leisurely took his bike and returned to the courtyard.

When they got home, Chen Xueru had already picked up Hou Kui. Zhao Shanhe also told them what he had asked the third uncle to do in the morning. Hou Kui was a little depressed when he heard that he had to transfer to another school, but the child was very sensible and knew that the school was indeed too far from Nanluoguxiang and would delay his parents' work, so he didn't say anything.
