Chapter 220 Drinking in Exchange for Supplies

Jingyi worked as a discipline inspector for more than a month, and Director Chen gave her a new task. After Jingyi handed over the work of discipline inspector to her colleagues, the new job made her relax.

On weekdays, she just planned production and economic management, contacted various departments, prepared reports and arranged meetings. After she took over these tasks, she often had to communicate with the factory management.

After a few visits, she became very familiar with the senior leaders of the factory. Especially Deputy Director Li, who was in charge of the logistics department. Whenever Jingyi went to his office to discuss work, Li Huaide was so enthusiastic! He was simply concerned about her well-being. But at least in terms of actions and words, he had not done anything out of line yet.

"Xiao Xu! We're hosting a banquet for several leaders from sister units in the cafeteria at noon today. You can come and attend as well." After the two men finished discussing work, Li Huaide invited them.

"Deputy Director Li, you are all leaders, so how can there be a seat for a clerk like me? Besides, I can't drink." Jingyi politely refused.

"The guest of honor at today's banquet is Director Wei from the coal company. Our steel mill is a major coal user, and we often have to use their company's unplanned coal. This time we've come to them for help again, hoping to get Director Wei to give in over the dinner table. Xiao Xu, we don't need you to drink with us, you just need to pour tea and wine on the side." Li Huaide began to introduce.

"Okay then! I'll come over at noon."

Jingyi hesitated at first, but drinking culture is a unique characteristic of the Chinese people, and it is also a way to enhance interpersonal relationships in the workplace, so she agreed.

When it was time for the cafeteria to open for lunch at noon, Jingyi went to the small restaurant in the first cafeteria.

This was her first time here. The small restaurant was founded by Lou Zhenhua at that time, and the furnishings inside were antique.

Jingyi knocked on the door and entered the private room. When Li Huaide saw her coming, he began to greet her: "Xiao Xu, come and sit down. You sit next to Director Wei and make sure to entertain him well to show your hospitality."

She looked around to see who was at the table. Li Huaide brought the director of logistics and two section chiefs, and there were two guests here.

Jingyi sat down in the only empty seat, and next to her was a strange middle-aged man. Li Huaide called him Director Wei, who should be the director of the municipal coal company.

"Director Wei, this is Comrade Xiao Xu from our factory office. She is a student from a prestigious university and usually never shows up in public. I was able to invite her because Director Wei is here today." Li Huaide introduced Director Wei.

"Hello, Director Wei! Welcome to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill for guidance. I just graduated from school and I can't drink yet, so I will toast Director Wei with tea instead of wine." Jingyi raised the teacup and prepared to drink it first as a toast.

"Hey! That won't do. Since we're all at the table, there should be no distinction between position and age. Xiao Xu, if you don't hold the wine glass, you won't be able to drink the wine today." Director Wei was not willing to give in! If Jing Huai beside him didn't change the wine glass, he wouldn't drink.

"Old Wei, you are wrong! The girl is already giving you face by sitting with you. Do you still want to persuade her to drink? Come on! Let's go first." Li Huaide stood up with the wine glass in his hand, wanting Director Wei to give up the idea of ​​letting Xiao Xu drink.

"Aren't you, the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, going to purchase coal that we don't plan to use? How about this, if Xiao Xu drinks a glass of wine, I'll give you ten tons of coal. This deal isn't a bad deal, right?" Director Wei suggested with a smile.

"Director Wei! Although I have never drunk alcohol in my life. But with your words, I will risk my life to accompany Director Wei today." Jingyi was willing to give it all for the production development of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill!

"Xiao Xu, can you do this?"

Li Huaide was still worried about her. Jingyi waved her hand! Although she had never drunk alcohol in this body, she had become a heavy drinker when she sang in a bar before.

After three lifetimes, her mental strength has greatly increased. Her physical quality, strength and agility have doubled. Her tolerance to alcohol should not be bad either.

Jingyi picked up the Maotai liquor on the table and drank three cups in a row. Each cup of liquor was one liang, and three cups were three liang of liquor in a row.

"Good! Good! Good!" Everyone present applauded.

"Director Wei, you must remember this number. If you miss one cup, that means ten tons of unplanned coal."

Jingyi drank three cups and had a rough idea in her mind. Her current alcohol tolerance was about one pound of white wine.

"Haha! I, Old Wei, keep my word! Eat some food first and drink the wine slowly, there's no rush." ​​Director Wei said generously.

Jingyi then toasted the two guests, one cup each, and then Deputy Director Li. This was another three cups of wine. Sixty tons of industrial coal were obtained!

At this time, Director Yang's full-throated voice came from the isolation room. Just then, a young woman in a cook's uniform came in with a tray. Li Huaide called her over!

"Liu Lan, which unit is the guest Director Yang invited today from?"

Liu Lan shook her head and said, "There are no outside guests over there. It's Director Yang and Director Nie from the Production Department."

Director Yang is a glutton! Although he doesn't have any bad habits, he just likes to lead the way in eating and drinking. Therefore, Sha Zhu is highly regarded by Director Yang for his cooking skills.

At the lunch party, Jingyi bought 100 tons of unplanned coal at the cost of 10 cups of wine. This was a great help to Li Huaide!

Director Wei was also very satisfied with the wine! Li Huaide was afraid that Xu Yueling would not be able to handle the alcohol, so he was about to ask his driver to drive her back.

Jingyi was just pretending! If she continued to drink, Director Wei would have a bitter face. He would have to spend some time to raise the extra 100 tons of coal when he returned.

She rode her small-wheeled bicycle out of the steel mill gate and was able to leave early and go home with impunity today.

When I turned into Nanluoguxiang from Dongzhimennei Street, I saw Yu Shui sitting on the back frame of a bicycle at the entrance of the alley in front of me. A figure in a police uniform was riding with her towards the No. 95 courtyard.

What's going on? I thought Yu Shui would never meet her husband in her previous life, but there must be a destiny. Yu Shui's marriage in her previous life was very happy, and I am happy to see these two people meet again.

Jingyi quickened her pace and caught up with them. When Yu Shui looked up and saw the little sister catching up with her from behind, her face immediately turned red!

"Xiaoling! I fell on the road when I was coming back at noon and sprained my foot. Fortunately, this policeman helped me and sent me to the hospital for examination." Yu Shui explained for himself.

"How are you now? Can you walk on the ground? Thank you so much, police officer!" Jingyi looked down and saw that her ankle was a little swollen, so she asked her. She also did not forget to thank the police officer.

"Hi! I just happened to pass by and would like to lend a hand. There is no serious problem with this female comrade's ankle. She just got some medicated wine prescribed in the hospital. She will be able to get out of bed tomorrow after applying it." The police officer smiled at Jingyi, revealing a row of big white teeth.

In their previous lives, the two met at about the same time. When Yu Shui was returning home from her mid-shift at the textile factory, she encountered two bad boys molesting her on the road. It was this policeman who happened to pass by and chased the bad boys away. The two fell in love with each other from then on!

Soon they arrived at the gate of No. 95 Siheyuan. Jingyi called the policeman and supported Yushui, who was on one leg, to the west wing of her backyard. The policeman was responsible for pushing the two bicycles in.

"Why did you drink at noon? You smell like alcohol, it's so smelly!" Yu Shui still disliked her.

"That's fine! Let the policeman help you in."

Jingyi handed the man over to the police and took out her key to open the door. Xiao Huaihua, who was playing in the middle courtyard just now, had already reached out and grabbed her clothes.

"Comrade Zhao, I'm sorry to have taken up too much of your time today." Seeing Zhao Gang coming over to support her again, Yu Shui began to feel embarrassed again.

"It's okay! I happen to be free today."

Zhao Gang helped Yu Shui into the house and let her sit on the sofa, then he took out a small bottle of medicinal wine for bruises and sprains from his bag.

"When rubbing this medicinal wine, you must rub it hard and don't be afraid of the pain. You need to let the medicinal wine be fully absorbed so that you will heal quickly." Zhao Gang introduced the use of the medicinal wine to the two.

"None of us know how to do it! Why don't we be good police officers and help Yu Shui wipe off the medicinal wine as well?" Jingyi took Xiao Huaihua away and assisted them.

After hearing this, Yu Shui shrank back into the sofa, her face so red that it looked like blood was about to drip out.

"Hurry up and don't waste time. You are still in the internship period and asking for leave may have an impact on you. After applying this medicinal wine, you will be able to walk tomorrow." Jingyi threatened her.

Yushui is now interning at the Third Post and Telecommunications Bureau. She is at the 26th level of administrative rank, and an 8th level clerk. Her monthly salary is 33 yuan. Like Jingyi, she will get a raise in rank after the six-month internship.
