Siheyuan: I stand for Xu Damao because he is my brother

Xu Dacan scratched his head and said, "It's not a big deal. I just happen to have this ability. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so stubborn."

Liu Huangbai was furious when he heard this. This boy was quite straightforward.

From what he said, if he can't beat Yang Weimin and the others, he will just ignore his daughter's affairs?

After a while, Liu Yueru came in with two bowls of noodles.

Two drops of sesame oil were put into the noodles, and a poached egg was placed on top, sprinkled with a few green chopped green onions, which made people very appetizing at first sight.

Liu Yueru handed the chopsticks to Xu Dacan: "You just drank alcohol and didn't eat properly. Come on and eat."

Xu Dacan glanced at Liu Huangbai and stood up in anger.

It's over. My little cotton-padded jacket has started to go astray. Three people have to cook two bowls of noodles. You are really capable of doing that!

Seeing this, Xu Dacan lowered his head and ate his noodles. Liu Yueru looked at them and giggled, "Dad, it's not like you didn't eat."

What else could Liu Huangbai say? He simply went to the yard to deal with the coal and pretend that he didn't see it!

Xu Dacan finished his noodles in a few bites, then went to the yard to help Liu Huangbai stack the coal, and then said goodbye.

After he left, Liu Huangbai asked Liu Yueru unwillingly, "You're going to follow him? Don't you want to think about it again?"

Liu Yueru was a little embarrassed: "Oh, Dad, it's not what you think!"

"..."

On Monday afternoon, gongs and drums were beating and red flags were waving at the gate of the Red Star Factory. Director Yang personally led the team to welcome the leaders of Shougang.

How powerful was Shougang at that time? The first side-blown converter for steelmaking was born in 58, which ended our history of having iron but no ore and having steel but no materials.

It can be said that Shougang is the undisputed leader in the system now.

When the leaders of Shougang came to conduct an investigation, the Red Star Factory had to provide them with the highest standards of reception.

The deputy factory director of Shougang who led the team this time is named Nie, and he is also an old acquaintance of the Red Star Factory.

As soon as the two leaders met, Deputy Director Nie asked Director Yang a difficult question: "Old Yang, this year we will not watch a singing competition or listen to poetry recitation, then watch a movie and then have dinner, right?"

Director Yang was full of confidence: "How can that be possible? Today I will make sure you won't want to leave!"

There was no singing competition or movie. Director Yang invited the leaders of Shougang to the conference room, where they listened to the speeches of the big brothers and learned advanced production experience.

He led Deputy Director Nie and his entourage to the factory's workers' club.

Xu Dacan had been waiting here for a long time. These past two days, he and his brother Xu Damao set up a room specifically for playing mahjong.

There was a square table in the room, covered with a green table mat.

There were two brand new decks of poker on the table. In addition, Li Huaide also called in the factory's announcer, Yu Haitang, to explain the rules of throwing eggs to Deputy Director Nie and others.

Yu Haitang looked at Xu Dacan with curiosity: "Did you really come up with this idea?"

Xu Dacan said modestly: "There is already a similar style of play in my hometown of Harbin. I just combined the popular play styles of the two places."

Yu Haitang's voice is somewhat neutral, and her Mandarin is particularly standard, with a broadcasting accent.

In this era, anyone who can make it in a factory can be said to have unique skills.

Take these people in the courtyard for example. Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level fitter, can be said to be one of the first batch of senior technicians after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Liu Haizhong, who works in the factory's machine tool workshop, may be an unkind parent and an unfilial child, but he is quite capable in teaching apprentices.

Squinting smile

Xu Damao, a senior projectionist, never skips or interrupts the film, and has performed hundreds of shows without incident.

Sha Zhu, the authentic inheritor of Beijing-style Sichuan cuisine, has real skills.

Of course, there was also Jia Dongxu, who was injured on the job, and Qin Huairu, who was just eating and waiting to die in the factory all day long...

Yu Haitang was just like those insurance salesmen who came later. He was full of passion and energy every day.

She also knew Xu Damao and was wondering, "Xu Damao, why did you suddenly stop working in the Propaganda Department?"

Xu Damao's eyes were so small from laughing that they were invisible. His mustaches were curled up. "I've been transferred to the personnel department of our factory. Keep a low profile. Keep a low profile..."

It turned out that he was promoted! Yu Haitang looked at him with new eyes: "You are good at showing movies and you know a lot. It is true that gold will shine wherever it goes."

Looking at Xu Damao again, his appearance was really unbearable to look at, his tail was raised so high that it could almost serve as a flagpole!

When Director Yang and his team arrived, the tea had already been brewed.

Deputy Director Nie walked around the table several times, as if he was trying to turn a millstone, and asked, "Is this the surprise you mentioned?"

Director Yang smiled and said, "Yes, this is the surprise I prepared for you."

After that, he looked at Yu Haitang who was standing beside him and said, "Xiao Yu, explain the rules of throwing eggs to the leaders of Shougang."

Yu Haitang said in a clear voice: "Okay, let me explain to you leaders..."

"..."

Today, Director Yang and Deputy Director Li are teammates, and Deputy Director Nie also brought someone to form a team.

When Yu Haitang was explaining the rules earlier, they were still a little noncommittal. What's the big deal?

Poker cards, is there any way to play this thing in new ways?

But after actually playing two games, Deputy Director Nie's expression gradually became serious.

He began to communicate frequently with Xu Dacan, who was assigned to give him "advice", discussing how to assemble cards, how to protect teammates and so on.

The people who were most shocked today were Xu Damao and Yu Haitang.

The two of them watched their leaders play from around 3pm in the afternoon until after 7pm. They really couldn't understand how these two ordinary decks of cards could have such great charm?

When Liu Lan invited all the leaders to the cafeteria for dinner, they all looked as if they were still reluctant to leave.

We were still discussing it even on the way to the cafeteria.

After entering the private room, Xu Dacan, who had been giving advice to Deputy Director Nie and helping him to improve the fun of the game all afternoon, asked Deputy Director Nie to pull him directly to sit next to him.

It seems that I like this young man very much. He is neither humble nor arrogant, speaks with discretion, and has a very accurate judgment of the game. No wonder he can think of such an exciting way to play. He is a man who knows how to use his brain!

When Director Yang and Deputy Director Li saw each other, they smiled at each other.

Li Huaide found an excuse and went to the kitchen.

Today in the kitchen, it is still the combination of Sha Zhu, Pang Auntie and Lao Wang.

Li Huaide took a look at the prepared ingredients and warned them, "Shazhu, you should know how important today's reception is without me telling you. Prepare the dishes for me today, and I will forgive you for letting the big brother at the steel factory find fish scales in his food last time. Otherwise, I will settle both the old and new accounts, and you should know the consequences!"
