Siheyuan: Breaking up with Shazhu at the beginning

39

Compared with his personal prospects, Yi Zhonghai is like dust. He will not offend this heavyweight figure because of Yi Zhonghai's trivial matter, and he will have the opportunity to discipline Yi Zhonghai in the future.

"In order to ensure that the steel plant's production targets are fully met, I personally support Deputy Director Li's opinion and am willing to issue a letter of understanding, but..."

Yang Jun paused for a moment, glanced at the crowd and said, "Although Yi Zhonghai is an eighth-level fitter in our factory and is our technical signature, he has now brought shame to our factory. Even if the police do not pursue the matter, our factory still needs to punish him for his behavior."

After hearing this point of view, everyone agreed with it and echoed it in unison.

Factory Director Yang slapped the table and said, "Stealing a bicycle is an extremely serious violation. I think Yi Zhonghai should be fired."

Deputy Factory Manager Li then expressed a different opinion: "Old Yang, this punishment is too severe. Once he is expelled, who will complete this batch of orders?"

“Then let him complete the order first, and then make any punishment.” The factory manager replied, unmoved.

Seeing that the factory director was firm in his stance, Deputy Factory Director Li turned to Yang Jun, expecting him to speak.

Yang Jun pretended to be in deep thought, then looked up and said to the factory director:

"Since ancient times, our factory has adhered to the principle of 'curing illness and saving lives, preventing problems from happening'. Although Yi Zhonghai made a mistake, we should give him space to correct it.

If we punish them too harshly, it will go against the spirit of humanistic care and reduce the vigilance of potential wrongdoers. "

"My personal opinion is to downgrade him, which will save Yi Zhonghai and not affect the factory's orders.

What do you think? "

After speaking, Yang Jun looked at everyone.

This plan suddenly appeared in his mind. He felt that it would be lenient to make Yi Zhonghai disappear. It would be satisfying if he had to make him suffer for the rest of his life.

Deputy Director Li appreciated Yang Jun's attitude and showed great interest in this opinion.

"I think Director Yang's idea is quite constructive. What do you think, Lao Yang?" The deputy director asked the director for his consent.

The factory director leaned back in his chair, thought deeply, and then turned back to ask Yang Jun: "How can we implement the decision to downgrade?"

Yang Jun smiled slightly: "Since we are talking about demotion, the punishment must be more severe, because stealing bicycles is a serious crime."

"I propose that Yi Zhonghai be given a serious warning and all employees be informed, and that he be paid the same salary as a first-level worker, while still having to bear the work responsibilities of an eighth-level worker."

"This is a very good idea," the factory manager agreed. "Let's do it this way."

Deputy Director Cao echoed: "This is a wise choice, which reflects our philosophy of curing diseases and saving lives."

Chairman Wang expressed his approval: "Let's do it this way. It's not easy to train an eighth-level worker."

Everyone agreed and nodded frequently.

At first, Deputy Director Li felt that Yi Zhonghai's approach was a bit harsh, but after realizing that everyone agreed with the suggestion, objecting might backfire.

"Then do it this way."

Li Huaide glanced at everyone and focused his eyes on Yang Jun.

“Not letting one person worry twice about something is not only Director Yang’s core role in the management, but also related to the handling of this case.

How about... you represent the steel mill and talk to the person in charge of the relevant department?"

Yang Jun accepted the invitation without hesitation.

"Okay, no problem, I'll take action now."

Then, the factory director once again emphasized the precautions regarding safe production and the meeting ended.

Returning to the office, Yang Jun made a cup of hot tea to keep warm.

Then I called the street office.

After more than an hour of hesitation, Yang Jun finally got on the road. He even slowed down the car on purpose. It took him nearly 40 minutes to complete the distance of more than ten kilometers.

It seems that you miss me, and you are probably thinking about how to take advantage of me and get some spare ribs.

"Huai Ru, you are really thoughtful. Thanks to you for accompanying Auntie these days, otherwise I wouldn't be able to show up so early."

Qin Huairu quickly replied: "Uncle, you are too polite. We are from the same courtyard..."

Before she could finish, the three of them looked up and saw Director Wang from the Street Office and five or six people blocking them.

"Comrade Yi Zhonghai, since your bicycle behavior has damaged the reputation of our street office, we have made the following decision after careful consideration.

"Director Wang spoke briefly and directly read out the punishment for Yi Zhonghai.

"Your title as the 'Fourth Uncle' will be revoked. From 6pm to 9pm every day, you will need to go to the street office for training every day for up to one month.

At the same time, you will be responsible for cleaning all the public toilets on the street for the next six months.

"

Looking at this seemingly simple Yi Zhonghai, Director Wang was filled with annoyance. It was just a stupid move that he chose him to be the "Fourth Uncle".

"Comrade, what do you think of this result?"

When he first met Director Wang, Yi Zhonghai felt that the matter was serious. Given his relationship with Yang Jun, he didn't believe that Yang Jun would forgive him so easily.

Before, he wondered why he was released so easily, but now after meeting Director Wang, he had the answer in his mind.

The aunt became very anxious when she saw this scene.

"Director Wang, Junzi has forgiven Lao Yi and said he will not hold us accountable anymore..."

Before she could finish her words, Director Wang waved his hand to interrupt her.

"Yi Wangshi, you are wrong. Although the police station has given up on pursuing responsibility, our street is not that simple.

The bicycle issue is of extremely serious nature and has caused great damage to our image.

Don’t you think this should be investigated?”

After saying this, the aunt had to remain silent.

Yes, the act of car theft is serious enough to be dealt with severely. Even if the police let bygones be bygones, the street office will not let Lao Yi off easily.

At this time, Qin Huairu also defended Yi Zhonghai: "Director Wang, first... Uncle Yi is busy with work during the day and has to study at night. How can he have time to clean the toilet? Look..."

Before she could finish, Director Wang interrupted again: "We have already thought of these. Yi Zhonghai works in the factory in the afternoon, then goes to clean the toilet, and studies in the evening, so there will be no conflict in time.

We have already negotiated with the steel mills.”

Qin Huairu was speechless after hearing this.

Auntie too...

"Uncle Si" was also speechless. All the reasons he had prepared were now revealed one by one.

Yi Zhonghai closed his eyes in silence, full of regret and heartache.

If you know today, why should you be in the beginning.

If he had known the consequences would be like this, he would not have been greedy and stolen Yang Jun's bicycle, and his attitude towards the Yang family would have been completely different.

What's the point of regretting now?

I'm afraid Yi Zhonghai doesn't know yet that he will face even more severe punishment at the steel mill.

Being demoted to a low-level position, one has to bear the burden of high-level work, that is, receiving salary according to the standards of a first-level worker but doing the work of an eighth-level worker.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai remained silent, as if he was helpless against his fate, Director Wang did not say much. She just gestured to the person behind her.

Afterwards, someone took out a hemp rope as thick as a thumb from the jeep, and several people surrounded Yi Zhonghai and tied his hands tightly.

Then another person showed a sign that had been prepared long ago and hung around his neck, with the word "sin" clearly engraved on it.

This is usually made of iron, painted white, and written with a brush.

This sign is about one and a half centimeters thick and weighs eight to ten kilograms. It is tied with a thin rope, which causes muscle pain and is enough to erode bones over time.

It is easier to get up than to get down from such a position.

I don't have the energy to deal with trivial matters every day, nor do I want to hold meetings frequently for trivial matters.

If he had enough time and energy, he might as well think more about how to strive for the position of director of the steel plant.

Reluctantly standing up, Yang Jun raised his hands and motioned the slightly agitated audience to be quiet, and explained with a smile:

"Brothers, thank you for your support, thank you very much!"

Yang Jun bowed deeply, and then continued: "As you know, I have a new position..."

Everybody laughed.

"What does promotion mean? The greater the responsibility, the less time you have left for the compound.

Therefore... let the position of the eldest master be vacant for a while, but the affairs of the yard will still be taken over by the second and third masters.

I will do my best to benefit everyone within my ability, what do you think? "

"agree!"

"Yes!"

Everyone agreed and clapped their hands to show their support.

Having said this, he had nothing more to say and left the follow-up to the second and third uncles to handle.

Upon learning that it was decided at the meeting that he and the Third Master would take over the management of the yard, the Second Master felt relieved and excited.

He immediately began to flatter and promised to improve the overall situation of the community under the guidance of the uncle.

Afterwards, he occupied the meeting time with a long speech like an old lady's foot binding, and the meeting came to an end only when the Third Master reminded him at the right time.

Returning to the backyard, he first entered the new house, where the decoration work had been completed and the bathroom was already in use.

Yang Jun turned on the faucet, flushing the water while whispering:

"Shh, be quiet.

"

The bathroom is clean and tidy, making people feel comfortable and pleasant, and people can feel energetic in it.

Let me review the decoration details of the house for you again.

Both houses are split-level in design.

Above the large room is the master bedroom, and above the small room is the junior bedroom.

While washing up, Yang Jun found a mouthwash basin on the washbasin. He was a little surprised, and then he quickly climbed upstairs and saw that the big bed was simply covered with a quilt, with clothes scattered around it.

Faced with this scene, Yang Jun smiled bitterly, shook his head, and went downstairs.

When they returned to the old house, the family gathered around the table and the daughters were all excited to discuss the topic of him becoming the new uncle.

Wang Yuying was the only one who was relatively calm about all this, as if she was indifferent.

Yang Liu rushed to say, "Old Four, remember to clean up the room for you two sisters after dinner.

"

Yang Yu, who was enjoying the joy of his new home, frowned and twisted his mouth when he heard the words. He was so full of resentment that he almost wanted to go up and argue.

"Why? You don't keep your word. I want to tell mom..."

Before she could finish her words, Yang knocked his chopsticks on the rice bowl, squinted at her and scolded her: "Girl, eat as much as you want. You have to do what you said before. You want less pocket money, right? Just say it.

"

Seeing Yang Hua's dissatisfaction but not daring to resist, Boss Yang gently stroked her forehead and comforted her:

"Think it through first, don't be impatient.

"

This action angered Yang Liu. Her eyes almost popped out. She was indignant at the second wife of the Yang family for going back on her word, but she could do nothing about it. She was counting on her eldest brother Yang Laosi for protection.

Yang Laosi sneered, endured the grievance, put down his chopsticks, stood up, let out a low "oh" and rushed towards his brother.

Facing the little sister who was rushing towards him, Yang Jun stretched out his hand and easily suppressed her. Yang Yu was unable to move at all and could only struggle in panic, shouting continuously.

"It will cost extra..."

Yang Jun supported her with one hand and held the dishes with the other, and agreed casually: "No problem!"

When Yang Laosi heard that Yang Laoda agreed to increase the fee, he immediately stopped his mischief and returned to his seat dejectedly.

“What extra money do you want?”

Wang Yuying was used to the fights between the siblings, but when Yang Yu mentioned money, she immediately asked seriously:

"Yu'er, don't I give you 10 cents pocket money every week? Why are you asking your brother for money again? You should tell me when you need it, okay?"

Recently, Yang Jun has bought a lot of things for his home. He not only helped his sister decorate the house and buy a car, but also gave her a lot of personal money.

Now that the wedding is approaching and expenses are increasing, she naturally doesn't want her family to spend any more of his savings.

Yang Yu looked at Wang Yuying and lowered his head silently.

The only person she was fearless of was Wang Yuying.

She had a secret in her heart that she couldn't tell, so she had to lower her head and drink her porridge in silence.

"I promised to buy her fireworks for the New Year. Since I didn't let her live in the new house, it's considered a breach of contract. I should give her double compensation."

Seeing the awkward situation, Yang Jun hurried to ease the atmosphere.

"Yes, brother, your words are not true. I could have bought fireworks for the New Year."

Yang Yu rolled his eyes cunningly, and immediately followed up with another sentence, making a provocative face at Yang Jun.

She thought to herself, even if this is not what you promised, since you generously gave it to me, I will gladly accept it.

Yang Jun looked at Yang Yu helplessly, then turned back to Yang Mei and Yang Liu and instructed:
