Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Chapter 188 Personnel Department

The two of them walked to the office building talking and laughing. Sha Zhu took Lin Geng to the Personnel Department on the first floor. After knocking on the door and entering, they found the section chief of the Personnel Department.

The director of the personnel department frowned when he saw Sha Zhu, and then asked him coldly, "He Yuzhu, what are you doing here?"

The news that Sha Zhu and others were detained by the police has now spread throughout the steel mill. As the section chief of the personnel department, he has of course also heard about it. The factory is now studying how to further punish them. After all, this incident was very serious and has greatly affected the reputation of the steel mill.

Director Yang's attitude towards how to continue punishing Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu is rather ambiguous, and he has been unwilling to make a decision to further punish them.

However, Li Huaide, the current deputy director of the steel rolling mill, was very determined and insisted on further punishment because their behavior was too bad. The fact that Yi Zhonghai embezzled the 200 yuan consolation money given to Lin Geng by the steel rolling mill was enough to expel Yi Zhonghai.

Director Yang was obviously interested because of his relationship with the deaf old lady. In addition, Yi Zhonghai was indeed an eighth-level worker, a senior technician that was currently in short supply in the steel mill. The lack of one would have a great impact on the steel mill's manufacturing of some special high-precision parts.

Therefore, Director Yang seemed rather ambiguous about how to further punish Yi Zhonghai and the other four. This matter had been kept on the back burner. At the factory leadership office meeting, some middle-level cadres from his faction, led by Deputy Director Li, brought up this matter many times, but Director Yang always kept the matter on the back burner and did not make a final decision on punishment.

The factory is now divided into two factions. One faction is some middle-level cadres in the factory headed by Director Yang. They believe that since Yi Zhonghai has already compensated Lin Geng and returned the 200 yuan consolation money that the steel rolling mill had embezzled and given to Lin Geng, and the public security has already detained Yi Zhonghai and others for seven days, then the steel rolling mill does not need to give these four people severe punishment.

However, another faction, led by Deputy Director Li, some middle-level cadres in the factory, firmly demanded that the factory severely punish Yi Zhonghai and others. In view of the different degrees of bad behavior of Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu, Liu Haizhong and Sha Zhu, they suggested that Yi Zhonghai be expelled from the factory and kept on probation, and be demoted to a temporary worker. After a year of probation, if he does not make any more mistakes, his status as a regular worker will be restored, but he will also be demoted.

Jia Dongxu should be expelled, and Liu Haizhong should be given a serious warning and demoted.

As for Sha Zhu, he was demoted to an apprentice and kept in the factory for half a year. He was responsible for cleaning toilets for half a year. After that, depending on his performance, his status as a regular worker was restored and he was allowed to return to the kitchen as a chef. However, his position as the second canteen monitor was cancelled and he was demoted to a ninth-level chef.

And now the matter is stuck here because of the disagreement between the two factions and Director Yang's delay in making a decision. However, the Chief of the Personnel Department can see that Director Yang may not be able to stand it for much longer. After all, the impact of this matter is too bad. Not only is it spreading widely in the steel rolling mill, but even the relevant departments that manage the martyrs' families have heard about it.

Although Lin Geng has now issued a letter of understanding to these people, the police station has detained them, and the street office has made subsequent punishment decisions on them, if the steel mill does not further punish them, once the military or the martyrs' family management department hears about it, they may intervene in the matter and question why the steel mill did not follow up on the matter further.

If that happens, Director Yang will probably be in trouble. Deputy Director Li will definitely not miss this God-given opportunity and will take the opportunity to attack Director Yang.

So if things go as expected, the head of the personnel department has already guessed that Director Yang will compromise on this matter in the next two days. He can't possibly sacrifice his own future for Yi Zhonghai and the others.

Today, Sha Zhu came over with a young man in a playful manner, but the head of the personnel department didn't treat him well, so he frowned and asked Sha Zhu coldly, "Sha Zhu, you've been absent from work for more than ten days without reason, right? Don't you want to do this anymore? Why did you come to see me today?"

Sha Zhu was very embarrassed by the attitude of the Personnel Director, so his overly mature face suddenly fell and showed anger, and his reckless temper was about to break out again.

Lin Geng immediately saw that Sha Zhu was about to do something stupid again, so he immediately pulled him back and whispered, "Brother Zhu, don't do anything stupid, let's talk it over nicely!"

After being pulled by Lin Geng and pointed at by him, Sha Zhu immediately calmed down and said with a smile: "Director Zhang, I made some mistakes a few days ago and was punished by the police, so I can't come to work. It's not that I was absent from work on purpose! But since I made a mistake, the factory should deduct my salary. I accept the punishment!

Now that everything is fine, I'm back to work! I brought Brother Lin Geng from our hospital to take over Aunt Yu's shift! I came to you to handle the paperwork!"

After hearing this, Director Zhang of the Personnel Department was stunned for a moment, then he turned his gaze to Lin Geng who was following Sha Zhu, and began to look Lin Geng up and down. Then, he suddenly remembered something and immediately asked Lin Geng, "Are you Lin Geng, the son of Comrade Yu Xiuying?"

As soon as Lin Geng heard this, he knew that Director Zhang already knew about his situation, so he immediately smiled and walked over to take out a pack of cigarettes, politely handed a cigarette to Director Zhang, and said:

"Hello, Director Zhang. My mother is Yu Xiuying. After my mother passed away some time ago, I was too sad and sick, so I couldn't come to the factory to handle the succession procedures as soon as possible. Now that I am finally well and have dealt with my family affairs, I quickly asked Brother Zhuzi to bring me to handle the succession procedures!

Sorry to trouble you, can Director Zhang help me with the formalities?"

The director of the personnel department saw that Lin Geng was a handsome young man, tall, strong and with an upright posture. Moreover, although he was smiling when he spoke, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and he spoke very politely, which made people inevitably feel good about him.

In addition, he had learned about Lin Geng's story and knew that Yu Xiuying and Lin Geng, mother and son, were relatives of martyrs. Lin Geng's father fought for the country and shed his blood on the battlefield. People of that era had great respect for martyrs and often looked at the relatives of martyrs differently. All factories, mines and departments would give certain preferential treatment to the relatives of martyrs.

Under normal circumstances, if an ordinary worker in a factory dies of illness, the factory generally does not give any condolence money. It is only out of humanitarian concern that the factory will provide some help in private, leaving the work position to the family and allowing one person in the family to take over.

However, after the factory learned that Yu Xiuying was a martyr's relative and heard that Yu Xiuying was seriously ill, they sent someone to the hospital to visit Yu Xiuying. After Yu Xiuying passed away, they also held a special meeting and gave Yu Xiuying's child Lin Geng 200 yuan in consolation money according to the factory's previous standards.

But no one expected that Yi Zhonghai, who worked in the same workshop, claimed that he was from the same courtyard as Yu Xiuying and was also a big shot in the courtyard. He said that Yu Xiuying's son Lin Geng was very sad and bedridden after his mother passed away, so he entrusted him to help come to the factory to handle some matters for his mother after her death. The factory leaders did not suspect anything and let Yi Zhonghai collect the condolence money for Lin Geng.

But no one expected that Yi Zhonghai, this hypocritical guy, would actually embezzle the 200 yuan consolation money given to Lin Geng by the factory, and took out part of the money to hold a banquet in the yard without authorization, inviting the residents in the yard to eat and drink for free, using other people's money to gain a good reputation for himself.

This matter is extremely bad to talk about. Everyone who heard about it cursed Yi Zhonghai as a beast and wished they could beat him to death to vent their hatred. As an eighth-level worker in a steel rolling mill, he looked honest and decent in normal times, and always had a sanctimonious look. Everyone thought he was a good person. Who knew that this guy could do such a wicked thing as giving birth to a child without an anus.

Therefore, Yi Zhonghai’s reputation is now not only notorious in Nanluoguxiang, but also completely notorious in the steel mill.
