Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

With the reassurance given by He Yuzhu, Lu Qiufu regained his former composure and confidence, and acted decisively.

It didn't take long for him to gather all the necessary materials and personnel outside the kitchen.

"Brother, what do you think we should do? We will all follow your command." Lu Qiufu said as he patted He Yuzhu's shoulder hard, his eyes full of trust.

He Yuzhu looked around, thought about the structure of the house, and decided on the location of the stone kiln.

He slowly walked to an open space on the right and pointed, "Brother, build a stone kiln here. You can fence it off later and break through the back kitchen wall. You don't have to worry about anyone doing bad things."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qiufu's face froze and he nodded to him. He was very grateful and directly helped him eliminate a risk point.

"Brother, come and tell them how big a building they should build." Lu Qiufu said as he led He Yuzhu towards the workers on standby nearby.

Hearing this, He Yuzhu came up to the workers and looked them over: "Wait a moment."

After he finished speaking, he took out a pen and paper from his bag, drew a simple diagram in a few seconds, adjusted the dimensions, and handed it to the worker.

The older master in the lead took it and glanced at the paper. He raised his eyebrows and was a little surprised: "No problem, it won't take much time."

He turned around and quickly organized the staff and assigned tasks, and the scene suddenly became busy and orderly.

Lu Qifu was watching from the side, and he was also very curious. He gave him a thumbs up and said, "Brother, you really know everything!"

He Yuzhu smiled modestly and waved his hand: "I know a thing or two!"

Seeing that there was no need to intervene too much, Lu Qifu warmly invited He Yuzhu to take a rest in his office: "Brother, let's go to my place to drink tea and chat."

The two walked into the office building of the logistics department, walked through the corridor, and came to Lu Qifu's office. After sitting down, the aroma of tea wafted in the air, and the two began to chat while sipping tea.

"Brother Lu, have you started building a building recently? I see quite a few construction sites are underway." He Yuzhu took a sip of tea and asked casually.

Lu Qifu smiled and explained, "Yes, our factory is expanding, and we are recruiting more people, so we can't arrange accommodation."

When He Yuzhu heard Lu Qiufu mention the expansion of staff, he thought of what Hong De had asked him to do in the morning.

He looked at Lu Qifu and changed the subject: "Brother, before I came here this morning, the restaurant manager Gong Fang wanted me to do him a favor."

"Tell me more details." Lu Qiufu saw from his expression that it didn't seem like a big deal.

"He should also know that you are expanding your enrollment, and he has a nephew who wants to come in. I'm just saying, if the conditions are not met, then forget it." He Yuzhu said sincerely.

"If this guy is barely okay, it's not a big deal. Brother, when you go back, ask him to contact me and I'll talk to him." Lu Qiufu pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

He Yuzhu heard this and raised his glass to thank Lu Qifu: "Thank you, brother! If it really doesn't work, don't force it. I'm just giving you a message for the sake of my colleagues."

"Okay, I understand what you mean." Lu Qiufu responded with a smile. The two looked at each other and smiled, and everything was said without words.

After waiting in the office for someone to notify them, the two returned to the cafeteria.

He Yuzhu walked around the stone kiln, his eyes revealing a bit of approval.

He then turned around and said to the worker next to him with a smile: "I'll leave the remaining insulation layer and furnace to you. I want them to be done quickly and well. You are an expert in this area."

Upon hearing this, the master couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, and responded confidently: "No problem, it's just a simple small stove."

"Okay, this furnace will be handed over to this master in the next few days. I will say hello to your workshop director and second you." Lu Qiufu quickly arranged for someone to communicate.

He looked at He Yuzhu standing beside him and chuckled, "Brother, this may delay you for two days. How about you show off your skills at noon today?"

He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows and looked at him with some doubt: "Brother, just speak frankly, do you want me to help you?"

"Brother, I really can't hide it from you!" Lu Qiufu pulled him aside and whispered about recent events.

Originally, with the expansion of Shijingshan Iron and Steel Plant, the logistics department increased its staff and expanded its organizational structure.

Lu Qiufu originally thought that he would be promoted to become the director of logistics, but he did not expect that a new director would be transferred in suddenly not long ago.

He can only hold a deputy position. Although his authority and management responsibilities have increased, his chances of promotion next time are uncertain.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he still obeyed the organization's arrangements and was responsible for the work at hand.

But he didn't expect that the newcomer Wan Youcai had his own ideas and recently started to use tricks on him in order to take power from him.

This time he wanted to push the responsibility to him temporarily. He had no choice but to ask He Yuzhu for help.

After listening to Lu Qifu's explanation, He Yuzhu handed him a cigarette and said, "Brother, I'm here. There's absolutely no problem with the food."

Lu Qifu looked at the stone kiln not far away, with a satisfied expression on his face: "Brother, you are giving me a surprise!"

"But do you have any trusted staff here? I'll stay here for a few days and help you train the staff. Then they can learn how to bake bread and cook dishes." He Yuzhu thought for a moment and suggested.

When Lu Qifu heard this, surprise flashed in his eyes, and he patted his shoulder excitedly: "Brother, you are really helping me in my time of need! Don't worry, I will tell them not to spread it."

He Yuzhu waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's not that serious, but I have a suggestion for you."

Lu Qifu looked at him with some confusion, and asked, "Brother, just tell me directly, we don't have to be so polite."

"I think this kind of thing will happen more and more in the future. Brother, you should pay more attention to training a few chefs you trust. When the need arises, you can provide good personnel, and that will be of great help to those in need." He Yuzhu said, smiling as he looked at him.

Lu Qifu understood immediately, and his smile became even brighter. He gave him a thumbs up and said, "Okay, brother, you are really quick-witted. I'll take you to find Lao Guo and the others."

"Haha, that's fine. I haven't been here for a long time. The last time I was here was when Brother Cheng got married." He Yuzhu smiled heartily and agreed with Lu Qiufu's proposal.

The two of them strolled to the small building belonging to the Security Department. He Yuzhu's eyes swept across the red brick wall. There were eye-catching slogans painted on the wall, and the sense of time was overwhelming.

Lu Qiufu walked forward with ease and walked into the gate with He Yuzhu.

He stood at the door and called out to the security personnel passing by: "Hello, comrade. Is your Section Chief Zhao in the office now?"

The passerby looked up and saw that it was Lu Qifu from the logistics department. He smiled and said, "Hello, Director Lu! Section Chief Zhao is in the office right now."

Hearing this, Lu Qifu's face was filled with a satisfied smile, and he nodded and thanked him quickly: "Okay, thank you very much."

He turned sideways, raised his chin slightly, motioned He Yuzhu to follow, and the two walked in side by side.
