Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

Zhang Renkang asked Tang Yan to call Xu Damao, Lu Yong and Yan Jiecheng, then he looked at the three of them and said

"Da Mao's recent work has been quite effective. I heard from Director Wang that the stubborn elements you reformed are now very active."

Xu Damao thought Zhang Renkang had called him here because of Yi Zhonghai's matter, but when he saw him praising himself, he said happily

"Thanks to the president's good leadership, these stubborn elements also know that our people's iron fist is powerful, and now they are all very active."

Zhang Renkang smiled and changed the subject.

"Da Mao, you have to be careful with this method. Although they are stubborn and backward, we should focus on reforming them instead of sending them to the hospital."

“Many people have reported some problems to me.”

Xu Damao nodded and said unhappily

"Yes, yes, I will definitely pay attention, but some people are stubborn and will not know what is good for them if you don't teach them a lesson."

Xu Damao cursed in his heart, thinking that Yi Zhonghai must have said something when he got back to the courtyard. This old man has no sense at all. Look at how sensible Wang Hua was in sending me two bottles of good wine and a stack of black paper. Yi Zhonghai is in my hands but he still thinks of himself as a shitty boss. What an ungrateful guy. I will teach him a lesson when he comes back.

Zhang Renkang turned to Lu Yong and Yan Jiecheng and said

"Lu Yong, you can arrange this later. Let me go to the Transportation Department to see if I can learn some skills. As for the patrol team, I will be a team leader under you to train myself."

"So, I plan to separate the backward and stubborn elements who were sent down to reform in the factory. Since their situations are different, they should be educated separately. Didn't the great man say that we should make as many friends as possible?"

Then he said to Tang Yan

"Xiao Tang, remember this: Xu Damao has set up a labor reform team, and Xu Damao will be the team leader. He will be appointed at the level of a deputy section chief. You will take his materials to the Personnel Department for filing and issuance of the appointment letter."

When Xu Damao heard that Zhang Renkang had promoted him to the rank of section chief, he was so happy that his mouth opened wide. He quickly expressed his loyalty and said:

"President, rest assured, I, Xu Damao, will work with you from now on. I will definitely perform well and complete the tasks assigned by you."

Zhang Renkang waved his hand to signal Xu Damao not to get excited and then said to Tang Yan

"Xu Damao's labor reform team has 15 people. I'll compile the list for you later."

Then he smiled and said to Xu Damao

"Da Mao, I see how hard you work. If you work hard, the factory will not treat you unfairly."

"I heard that Wang Minghua's family came to see you? And a few old technicians who were sent to labor camps?"

Xu Damao broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, thinking that Zhang Renkang knew something and was so nervous.

"Yes, they came to me to ask for mercy, but I refused."

Zhang Renkang looked at him meaningfully and said

"Your work is crucial. It is a model for our steel mill to reform stubborn elements. You must stick to the bottom line."

Seeing Xu Damao's panic, Zhang Renkang nodded with satisfaction. He still had use for Xu Damao, this mad dog, but he had to keep the chain tight, otherwise this kid wouldn't know who was the boss and would always try to break free from control.

Zhang Renkang continued

"Lu Yong, you have to take responsibility for the classification of backward elements. I asked you to go to the patrol team, not to take care of your retirement. You have to classify them as backward or stubborn according to the severity of their behavior and their ideological transformation."

"Don't treat them all as stubborn elements in a one-size-fits-all manner. I think we should start with their ideological cognition and learning progress. You should take responsibility."

Lu Yong nodded and agreed.

"Okay, Director, I'll divide it up when I get back."

Zhang Renkang nodded and said

"I've prepared the list for Xiao Tang. Xiao Tang, you should also learn more from it and review it for me later."

"There will be no problem after the separation. The stubborn ones will be given to Xu Damao for reform. We should give the backward ones a chance to learn. We should try to make them good comrades and let them serve the factory in the cleaning team."

Then he looked at Yan Jiecheng and said

"Jie Cheng, don't say I didn't give you a chance. I'm giving you two choices now. You can go to the Transportation Science Driving School and learn driving skills. After you pass Chen Wei's assessment, I'll make you a regular employee. The second option is to follow Lu Yong in the patrol team to supervise the transformation of backward elements."

Yan Jiecheng thought for a while, looked at Zhang Renkang and said in a low voice

"President, I will go to the patrol team to supervise the backward elements."

Zhang Renkang sighed inwardly, looked at Yan Jiecheng and said

"Okay, now that you've made your choice, follow Lu Yong and work hard. I hope there won't be a second time, otherwise don't blame me for punishing you."

Yan Jiecheng knew what Zhang Renkang meant. He actually wanted to join the car team. There were few cars these days and few people who could drive. This skill was very valuable, but Yan Jiecheng didn't want to suffer because the transportation department often had to travel long distances to transport goods and help unload them. It was not as comfortable as managing people in the patrol team. He saw how those old technical workers who were sent down tried to please Xu Damao, giving them cigarettes and treating them to meals. It was so impressive and there were benefits to be gained.

Zhang Renkang looked at the three of them and said

"Okay, now that everything is clear, let's do it this way. Xu Damao stays, and you two can go back."

After saying that, he asked Tang Yan to send them out and close the door. Xu Damao looked at Zhang Renkang nervously. Ever since Zhang Renkang beat Sha Zhu half to death last year, Xu Damao was actually a little afraid of him. In addition, Zhang Renkang was now his immediate superior, the de facto second in command in the factory.

Although Yang Weiguo and several factory leaders were of higher rank than him, Zhang Renkang controlled the picket team of the Ideological and Political Committee and the logistics department of the factory. Most importantly, he had the material channels in hand. Who else but Li Huaide dared to lead Zhang Renkang? Xu Damao was not stupid. He knew who had the final say in the factory.

After Lu Yong and Yan Jiecheng left, Tang Yan poured hot water for Zhang Renkang and sat down at the desk opposite to sort out the materials. Zhang Renkang stared at Xu Damao for two or three minutes and suddenly said

"Da Mao, I am quite optimistic about you now, so I let you be the captain of this labor reform team, and even adjusted your rank. You can say that your previous section chief is only half a level higher than you."

"You have to cherish this opportunity, right?"

Xu Damao replied nervously

"President, I, Xu Damao, know that you promoted me, so I will definitely follow your instructions and fight wherever you say."

Zhang Renkang said with a smile

"Da Mao, we are neighbors and childhood friends. Although you don't live in the compound now, I have to remind you that there are some things you can't do. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xu Damao explained in a panic

"President, I, I, I rejected Wang Minghua and the others when I returned."

"I'll hand those things over to the public. I'll hand them over to the public."

Zhang Renkang smiled and said

"Submit the stuff to the Finance Department and ask Tang Yan to write a list. I don't understand how they got so much property when they are all workers. Do you think this is reasonable?"

Xu Damao seemed to understand something when he heard it, and nodded and said

"Yes, President, are they plundering the people's property?"

Zhang Renkang nodded seriously and said

"You need to figure out where they got all those gifts for you, right? Are they exploiting their co-workers or something?"

"We cannot allow some bad guys who are against the people and want to sabotage the revolution to hide in our ranks. This is an important task for your labor camp. Do you understand?"
