Siheyuan: Start with a big car

Things turned out just as Li Weidong expected.

After learning about Wang Juan's situation, comrades from the special department immediately led people to the steel mill and took Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaoshan away.

By noon, the security department of the steel rolling mill received a commendation letter from a special department.

In the commendation letter, the leader praised the steel rolling mill security department for its special contribution to defending the country and the people.

The superior leader also said that after the whole matter is fully investigated, he will commend the steel rolling mill’s security department.

Section Chief Li of the steel mill said excitedly: "This time it is really thanks to Weidong. Otherwise, how could we have achieved such a great success?"

The security officer said, "Chief, they have helped us so much this time, shouldn't we thank them?"

Section Chief Li frowned.

"What kind of person is Comrade Weidong? You know that. Do you want him to make a mistake? Or do you want me to make a mistake?"

The security officer waved his hand and said:

"You misunderstood. How could I ask you to deliver something to Director Li?

What does Director Li like the most? He likes playing with guns! However, according to regulations, only 20 bullets can be issued to leaders of Director Li's level every six months.

This amount of bullets is not enough. The last thing we lack in our arsenal is bullets. Especially since some bullets have already passed their expiration date. "

As soon as these words were spoken, Section Chief Li's eyes lit up instantly.

Those bullets, if they are past their scrap period, will have to be destroyed in the future, so it’s better to do them a favor.

He patted the security officer on the shoulder and said:

"Qin Erhu, I didn't expect you to be getting smarter and smarter."

Qin Erhu joined the steel rolling mill’s security department just this year.

But unlike other security officers, he has a very flexible mind. He has helped to formulate many rules and regulations in the security department of the steel mill, so he is deeply trusted by Chief Li.

Qin Erhu gave Chief Li a thumbs up and said, "Chief Li, this is all because of your good education. It is only under your guidance that I can perform to my full potential."

"That's enough, kid. You're good in everything except that you're a little slick. Remember, our security department speaks based on real ability. Your tricks are useless."

After saying this, Section Chief Li left the office in a hurry.

Qin Erhu looked at his departing back and smiled awkwardly.

The reason why Qin Erhu applied to be transferred to the security department of the steel rolling mill was because his style of doing things was not liked by the leaders of the security department of the timber mill.

"This is really strange. My father always taught me to be tactful and learn to curry favor with leaders. What happened?"

Qin Erhu returned to the office in a bad mood. Just as he sat down, the phone rang.

He picked up the phone and heard a cold voice: "Qin Erhu, when will you pay me back the money you owe me?"

When Qin Erhu heard the voice on the phone, he felt his head buzzing.

"Why are you calling here? Didn't I tell you that I will definitely pay you back when the paycheck comes in a few days?"

"Look at what you said. You've said it countless times. I'm telling you, if you don't pay me back, I'm going to find the security department of your steel mill."

Qin Erhu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly assured:
"Brother Zhou, don't worry. As soon as I get my salary, I will definitely pay you back first."

"Since you said so, I will trust you once again. But if you dare to play tricks on me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The other party hung up the phone. Qin Erhu wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed deeply.

Qin Erhu was born into a working-class family. Both his parents were workers and their living conditions had always been very difficult. However, this kid had a problem: he liked to play cards.

Nine times out of ten he loses in gambling, and he has accumulated a lot of gambling debts over the years.

But Qin Erhu was not in a hurry. Now he was a security officer in the security department of the steel mill, and there were plenty of opportunities to make money.

On the other side, Li Weidong was arranging the recruitment of TV assemblers in his office.

So far, more than 1000 eligible workers in the steel mill have signed up to join the steel mill laboratory.

Considering that these workers may become the grassroots force of the steel mill laboratory in the future, Li Weidong decided to carefully screen them and select those workers with relatively high ideological awareness and strong abilities.

While I was busy, Section Chief Li pushed open the door and walked in.

"Director Li, come on, stop busying yourself, and follow me to a good place."

Seeing this, Li Weidong stood up with a smile.

"how?"

"Don't ask. You'll know when you get there."

Li Weidong has almost completed his work today.

Seeing that Section Chief Li was so anxious, he didn't think much about it. He handed the materials to the comrades in the Personnel Department of the steel rolling mill, and hurriedly followed Section Chief Li to the shooting range.

When he arrived at the shooting range and saw more than a dozen boxes of bullets outside, Li Weidong immediately understood.

"Chief Li, thank you so much."

"That's true. Without you, we wouldn't have been able to accomplish such a great feat. Besides, these bullets would be wasted."

Hearing this, Li Weidong was speechless.

Section Chief Li has been the head of the Security Department for so many years and has made many contributions, but he has not been promoted yet. It seems there is a reason for this.

But these things had little to do with Li Weidong. He loaded the bullet into the pistol and fired a shot.

The target reporter outside shouted:
"Ten rings!"

Section Chief Li couldn't believe it. He picked up the telescope and looked through it, then gave Li Weidong a thumbs up.

"Alright, Director Li, your shooting skills are much better than mine."

Li Weidong laughed out loud twice.

Of course, I am different from Section Chief Li. Section Chief Li has mastered his marksmanship through hard work and practice, but I am a little bit cheating.

But this kind of thing must never be spoken out.

While Li Weidong was having a lot of fun in the shooting range, on the other side, Deputy Director Wang stopped Liu Haidong.

This matter started a few days ago. A few days ago, Liu Haidong took some money from Deputy Director Wang and promised to help Deputy Director Wang get rid of Li Weidong.

Deputy Director Wang was full of hope, but Liu Haidong was reluctant to take action.

"Liu Haidong, are you kidding me? Let me tell you, the person who can kid me hasn't been born yet."

Liu Haidong smiled awkwardly.

"Deputy Director Wang, look at what you said. Even if I, Liu Haidong, dare to play with others, I dare not play with you. You are the deputy director. I am making plans now. You also know that Li Weidong is particularly difficult to deal with."

Liu Haidong was not wrong in saying this.

He knew very well that this was a great opportunity to bring down Li Weidong. If he was not careful, all his efforts would be wasted.

So during the past two days, while he was taking action himself, he also reminded Yi Zhonghai to act quickly.

Deputy Director Wang can't take care of so many things.

He just received news from the Personnel Department that the workers for the TV factory have been selected.

If they wait until all the workers are on duty, they will be very passive in taking action.
After all, those workers have already occupied their workstations, and they will stick together. It would be inappropriate to drive anyone away, and they will definitely stand on Li Weidong's side.

"Two days, Liu Haidong, I'll give you another two days. If you don't take action, don't blame me for being rude." After saying this, Deputy Director Wang saw that Liu Haidong was a little disapproving, and snorted coldly and said:
"Liu Haidong, don't think I can do nothing to you just because you are a senior worker. Have you ever heard of Master Chen?"

When Liu Haidong heard the name Master Chen, his expression changed slightly.

Master Chen works in the same workshop as Liu Haidong and is also an eighth-level master chef.

A while ago, I offended Deputy Director Wang at work.

Everyone would think that Deputy Director Wang has no way to deal with Master Chen.

But to everyone's surprise, within two days, Master Chen was transferred to raise pigs.

Master Chen and the workers all expressed their opposition at the time, but Deputy Director Wang gave very sufficient reasons.

The current economic difficulties have caused all processing plants to try to find ways to save themselves.

Pig farming is a very important job. It can provide meat for workers and it is also a contribution to the factory.

The workers all knew that Deputy Director Wang was taking the opportunity to retaliate, but they had no way to stop them.

After all, if they objected again, Deputy Director Wang would accuse them of disobeying organizational arrangements.

At that time, both promotion and various welfare benefits will be affected.

Liu Haidong had to take it seriously.

"Deputy Director Wang, please rest assured. I promise to bring down Li Weidong in the shortest possible time."

After being threatened by Deputy Director Wang, Liu Haidong perked up and walked into the fitter workshop with his hands behind his back.

He walked around the workshop but didn't see Yi Zhonghai.

"Where is Master Yi Zhonghai?" Liu Haidong asked, pulling a worker aside.

The worker pointed to the warehouse next to him with disdain.

"Needless to say, he must be hiding in the warehouse and lazing around."

"This Yi Zhonghai, he always says that the workers don't respect him. With his behavior, who would respect him?"

You know, although Yi Zhonghai is only a temporary worker now, the relationship between the workers is still very deep.
As long as he continues to perform well in the workshop, the workers may forgive him for what he did in the past.

These things have nothing to do with Liu Haidong.

He wandered into the warehouse and saw Yi Zhonghai lying there sleeping soundly.

"Old Yi, why are you sleeping in the middle of the day?"

When Yi Zhonghai saw that it was Liu Haidong, he immediately frowned.

"Liu Haidong, why are you here?"

Liu Haidong pointed at Yi Zhonghai's nose and cursed:

"You old man, don't forget that you still took so much money from me."

After these words were spoken, Yi Zhonghai's face turned embarrassed.

"Liu Haidong, seeing what you said, how could I forget?"

Having said this, Yi Zhonghai stood up.

"Let me tell you, I have done a lot for you these past two days, but Li Weidong's prestige is too high now.

Especially the workers in the workshop, they all felt that Li Weidong had done so many good things.”

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense to me. Don't I know? As long as you show up, there won't be many people you can't find."

This is not wrong. Although Li Weidong has made so many contributions to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, where some people gain benefits, others suffer losses.

Over the years, the interests of some old masters in the steel rolling mill have been affected because of Li Weidong's new model.

As long as Yi Zhonghai comes forward sincerely, he can definitely win over a large number of people.

Yi Zhonghai realized that his little trick had been seen through and could only smile awkwardly.

"Haidong, don't worry, I will help you with this matter now."

"Then I'll wait for you. You must find a group of people before tonight. We'll take action tomorrow."

Liu Haidong knew that if he didn't keep a close eye on people like Yi Zhonghai, he would definitely cause more trouble.

Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to leave the warehouse. He first found Master Zhou in the workshop.

Master Zhou’s situation is similar to Yi Zhonghai’s. He is a level seven master chef.

He used to have more than a dozen apprentices, and his daily job was to move a chair and sit there, drinking tea, while the apprentices helped him with work.

However, with the vocational education promoted by Li Weidong, all the young apprentices went to receive training and no longer needed him as a master.

In this situation, he could only return to his workstation obediently.

When Master Zhou heard that Yi Zhonghai was going to deal with Li Weidong, his first reaction was to take several steps back.

"Yi Zhonghai, are you crazy? What kind of person is Li Weidong?

In our steel mill, even Director Yang has to give him some respect. If you want to deal with him, you are courting death."

Yi Zhonghai took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Master Zhou.

"Old Zhou, you are considered an old master, how can you be so timid?"

"This is not a question of courage. It's that we can't beat Li Weidong at all." Master Zhou took the cigarette, lit it, took a puff and said.

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly and said, "You should also be aware of what Li Weidong did.

Now most of the young people in our factory have entered vocational training classes, and all of us old masters have become useless old stuff.

If this continues, who will still respectfully call us Master?"

These words touched Master Zhou's heart directly.

As a worker, there was nothing wrong with him doing more work. The most important thing was that he felt he was extremely despised.

You have to know that before liberation, the little apprentices were very excited when they saw the master masters, and some apprentices even had to empty the urine pots for them.

Now, when these little disciples saw him, their eyes widened.

"Yi Zhonghai, you've said so much, what can you do?

If you can really kill Li Weidong, I can help you with that."

Yi Zhonghai was overjoyed, he leaned close to his ear and whispered something.

After listening to this, Master Zhou’s eyes widened immediately and he gave Yi Zhonghai a thumbs up.

"Yi Zhonghai, I really didn't expect you to be so vicious."

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly and said:
"What can I do? It was Li Weidong who forced me to do it."

"Alright, alright, I know who you are. We are on the same side now, so there is no need to talk about this anymore."

"Let's make it a deal. We'll meet at the factory gate tomorrow morning."

Yi Zhonghai was still thinking about persuading other workers, so he didn't say much and turned around and walked towards another worker.
