Siheyuan works as a nanny for Shazhu

Jiang Feng nodded and didn't say anything, just said he would go back to drink in the evening. After entering the factory, he went directly to Director Li's office. He knocked on the door first. After hearing Director Li say "Come in", Jiang Feng pushed the door and walked in.

As soon as he opened the door, he said, "Director, I'm finally back. I was on a business trip this time and I almost couldn't come back. The food there was really not to my taste. Nothing I ate tasted good."

Li Huaide sat behind his desk and saw that Jiang Feng was indeed much more haggard and not as energetic as before. He quickly stood up and said, "Deputy Director Jiang, it's good to be back. It's good to be back. You've been away for a few months and I don't know who to discuss things with.

I want to call you, but I know that your two newly built factories are very busy, so I have to put aside my thoughts and sit down quickly. Let's talk about what's going on over there."

Li Huaide poured a cup of tea himself, and Jiang Feng hurriedly handed him a cigarette, saying, "You don't know, there are no steamed buns to eat over there, they all eat rice, and the mosquitoes there are so big. The local people said that the mosquitoes here can survive the winter, and these big ones are the mosquitoes that survive the winter."

Li Huaide was surprised to hear this. He had never been to the south either. He lit up the cigarette in his hand and motioned Jiang Feng to continue. Jiang Feng raised the bag in his hand and said, "Director, there is nothing to bring. I looked around and found that the supplies there are far worse than ours.

But this candy is pretty good. I heard it’s made from local coconuts, so I brought two kilograms and the director took it back to sweeten his mouth.”

Li Huaide took it curiously and took a look. It said "Coconut Candy" on it. He said a few words of thanks and asked Jiang Feng to continue talking about why Yangcheng was the provincial capital over there and what the conditions were.

Jiang Feng also lit his cigarette, drank a sip of tea, and told Li Huaide about some of the situations over there. In fact, the situation is only slightly better in the city, but in the rural areas, some are even worse than in the inland areas. Jiang Feng also went to Chaofu, where some villages were even worse off.

It is said that many people fled from the sea to the port city during this period. Now two new factories have been opened, which has provided a way of survival for people nearby. When there are more factories in the future, people will not have to run away.

Li Huaide also sighed after listening to this. Life is hard everywhere now, and it is not just like this in the coastal areas. Families without jobs can only rely on finding food in the fields. It is not so bad over there. At least there are abundant aquatic products, and at least there is something to eat.

Jiang Feng also nodded, sighed, and asked about the current situation of the factory. He also said that he would go to the personnel department to handle the formalities later. Li Huaide also came back to his senses and said, "Go ahead, you are still the same as before when you come back. Just help me take care of the technical department."

Jiang Feng nodded quickly, drank two sips of water, stood up and said goodbye. He still had to go around the factory in the afternoon, at least to let everyone know that the section chief was back.

When they arrived at the Personnel Department, there was another bustle. He Yushui took the half pound of sugar from Jiang Feng's hand, collected the information, and pushed Jiang Feng into the Personnel Department Director's office. Then he brought water to him. Jiang Feng sat there and drank half a glass of water. After all the formalities were completed, the Personnel Department Director said, "Your salary has been taken back by He Yuzhu. Go back and check with him."

"Thank you, Director. I know everything. I give it to my wife every month. No problem, this is for you. Take it back and feed it to your children." Jiang Feng said as he took out another bag, which contained another half pound of sugar.

Director Liu couldn't stop smiling. Section Chief Jiang was really good at dealing with people. No one in the factory said anything bad about him. Director Liu sent Jiang Feng out with a smile on his face. When he came back, He Yushui was presiding over the distribution of sugar. Director Liu shook his head and went into the office without saying anything.

After leaving the Personnel Department, Jiang Feng returned to the Technical Department. As soon as he entered, someone shouted, "The Section Chief is back."

Jiang Feng nodded and walked towards his office. When Engineer Li saw Jiang Feng coming back, he followed him. Jiang Feng first asked if there was anything going on recently. It was the same as usual, everyone was busy with work earlier in the morning and was tired from working overtime.

Jiang Feng nodded. At that time, he was not only busy here, but also there. He took out a pound of candy from his bag and handed it to Li Gong: "Some local specialties, take it out and share it with everyone. It's candy. Take it back and give it to the children."

Engineer Li took it in his hand and took it out. There was a cheer outside. When Jiang Feng came out, everyone was sitting at their desks working. Jiang Feng nodded with satisfaction and walked out.

He wandered around to the machinery factory again. There were a lot fewer people in the technical department here. At least half of the staff had been transferred to the south. Jiang Feng also knew about it. There was also a pound of sugar here, and this time it was given to Liu Jianguo to distribute.

Jiang Feng walked around the factory and found that he didn't recognize many people. The people transferred there this time were mainly from the machinery factory. However, these people would not stay for long and would have to be transferred elsewhere within half a year at most.

Seeing that nothing was wrong, Jiang Feng returned to his office. In the past, he would have definitely gone home. He was still a little afraid to face Zhao Xuelin. It was okay before, as they had just had an affair. But now that they had a child, he definitely couldn't hide it. It would take five or six years at most, and maybe she would find him back.

Jiang Feng was sitting in the office drinking tea and smoking, not wanting to read any information. According to his plan, this batch of machines can be gradually phased out in three years, but he can still make some money. Can the old machines in the factory be sold at a discount? There are always some places where you can't afford brand new ones, so second-hand ones will do.

However, Minister Wang is not here now. I don't know whether the higher-ups will support the proposal to research CNC technology now. I still have to ask Minister Wang about this matter. Logically, he should have someone on his side.

Jiang Feng shook his head and thought about it. He hadn't seen Yi Zhonghai since he came back. It has been almost half a year now. He decided to go take a look and see how he was doing.

Jiang Feng did it as soon as he thought of it. He stood up and left the technical department, walked through several workshops, and when he arrived at a workshop, Jiang Feng released the space to see what Yi Zhonghai's condition was like and whether there was a chance for him to be promoted again.

You won’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked. Although he was an old man before, at least he had a ruddy complexion and bright eyes. In just a few months, Yi Zhonghai’s hair turned completely white, the wrinkles on his face were big enough to pinch a fly to death, and his eye bags were as big as Teacher Ni’s.

In Jiang Feng's space, nothing can be hidden. Yi Zhonghai is now working on a workpiece, and his arms are shaking unconsciously. Jiang Feng shook his head and looked at Qin Huairu again. Her face was ruddy and her eyes were pink. It seemed that the comfortable life recently made Qin Huairu full of energy.

Recently, Jia Zhangshi has not caused any trouble, so Qin Huairu has lived a good life. Without Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng's burden, she can still live a good life. This is not acceptable. Although Yi Zhonghai has gained a great advantage, Qin Huairu has gained a greater advantage. No matter what, the people of the Jia family are only suitable to stay in those two small houses.

Jiang Feng shook his head and walked towards the technical department. He sat down in the office and thought about Yi Zhonghai's two rooms. He had to go back and ask more. It seemed like Banggeng had been gone for a long time, and he didn't know how he was doing over there.

When it was time to get off work, Jiang Feng followed the group and walked out of the factory. When he reached the factory gate, he got on his bike and rode away. Naturally, Jiang Feng's back was also seen by Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu pulled Yi Zhonghai and asked, "Zhonghai, is that Jiang Feng? He looks a bit like him."

Yi Zhonghai squinted his eyes and looked at him for a few more times, then nodded and said, "It's him. He must be back from a business trip."

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes and said to Yi Zhonghai, "Zhonghai, if we go and beg him, can he think of a way to get Banggeng back earlier?"

Yi Zhonghai widened his eyes, looked at Qin Huairu and said, "You are confused, what kind of relationship does he have with your family? Why would he help you? Our two families have offended a dead family. It's good enough that he doesn't add insult to injury. You still want him to help you."

Qin Huairu's face turned pale, and he said, "That was all caused by Jia Zhang. I have never offended him. Think about it, do you think it's okay for me to beg him?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said, "It's probably difficult. Don't even mention whether he, a deputy director, has the ability to do so. Even if he does, why would he help you? There's more than just Banggeng trying to cut in line in the yard. What if several other families also ask for help?"

"I don't care. I went there first to beg for help. Banggeng wrote back saying that he was having a miserable time over there, with only two steamed buns a day. He must have been bullied. There has been no letter from him for several months, and I don't know how he is doing now."

As she was talking, Qin Huairu started to cry. Yi Zhonghai shook his head and could only persuade her: "If you want to go, go and ask. It's best not to hold out any hope."

Qin Huairu nodded, wiped her tears, and felt bad. Since she received the letter last time, she also went to find Li Huaide, but what kind of person is Li Huaide? Last time, he said that he didn't want to see her again. This time, he didn't even meet her and directly said that he couldn't do anything about it.

Qin Huairu also knew that Li Huaide didn't want to help, but there was nothing she could do. She could only secretly hate herself for taking the initiative to rush over at that time, otherwise she would not be able to talk to him now.

Even if he relied on Yi Zhonghai, it would be useless. He is not an eighth-level fitter now. He said he had signed up for the exam in the middle of the last year, but he failed. He came back and said that he was too old and would definitely pass by the end of the year, but it seems unlikely. Qin Huairu, as his bedside companion, naturally noticed his hand tremors. If this continues, it will be difficult for him to maintain his sixth-level status.

But Yi Zhonghai is about to retire, so as long as he can keep his job, it will be fine. I have to have a good talk with him when I go back, and I also need to control myself every day.

The two of them walked slowly towards the courtyard. The white hair and the black hair looked so incongruous yet they seemed to be a good match. Now everyone is used to it and doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.

When the two arrived at the courtyard, they couldn't help but look at Yan Fugui's house. The old man in charge of the courtyard said that the family was now in name only. The only one who was still employed was hiding and dared not see anyone. Although the school did not clarify his problem, the fact that he was notified to be unemployed at home was already a problem.
