That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 691: Rolling Knife Meat, Not Afraid of Him
On the morning of the third day after Li Ye issued the marriage introduction letter, Section Chief Wu Qingyi went out for a walk and came back with a gloomy face.

Then he arranged for Li Ye: "Xiao Li! You should go to the Fangshan Auto Parts Factory right away. The quality of the goods they supply us is always problematic. Tell them directly. If they still fail to meet the standards, we will directly change the manufacturer."

"Fangshan? What will I say when I get there? What specific aspects of their quality are problematic?"

Li Ye was a little confused after hearing this.

I have only been here for a few days and am not familiar with the situation. Besides, shouldn't the supplier be the one to come and explain this to the consignee?
Party A called and said, "The quality of your goods is not good." Shouldn't Party B have provided a one-stop service to Chief Wu that very evening to make him happy?
Could it be that the other party has a very difficult relationship and a bad temper?

"Oh, you'll know once you get there. Get familiar with the situation there, because their business will be yours from now on."

"."

Li Ye thought about it for a moment, said nothing, packed up and was ready to leave.

Lao Ding took a sip of tea, stood up and said, "Let me take Xiao Li to the technical department first! At least we need to know the specific problem. Otherwise, we won't know anything when we get there, and we will lose our people."

Section Chief Wu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lao Ding, saying indifferently, "That's fine, but if we delay for too long, we won't be able to have the lunch reception there!"

"Hey, who needs a meal these days?"

Old Ding led Li Ye out of the office, then smiled and asked in a low voice: "Did you get the letter of introduction?"

Li Ye was surprised and asked: "Master, how did you know?"

Old Ding curled his lips and smiled, "I saw it from his face."

"."

Li Ye understood that Lao Ding could tell from Section Chief Wu's expression.

"Okay, you did a good job on this matter. It's not his responsibility to begin with. But work matters are different."

Lao Ding led Li Ye to the technical department and said as they walked: "In a place like the company, unless it is a major violation of the regulations, you cannot report work problems directly to the higher-ups without going through the department leader, because that would break the rules."

"So even if you feel that the work assigned to you is unreasonable, you should try not to throw up on the spot, but learn to adapt."

"unreasonable?"

Li Ye grasped the key words and asked humbly: "Master, is there anything unreasonable in my work today?"

"Eh~"

Lao Ding sighed and said, "Whether it is reasonable or not depends on the person. You are a newcomer and you have to endure some hardships and fatigue. No one can say anything.

But if this job was assigned to me today, I would definitely not do it. It's almost ten o'clock and I'm not allowed to go. I have to change two buses on the way. What time will it be when I arrive at Fangshan?
Not only will I miss the dinner hosted by the parts factory, but I will also have a hard time making it back tonight, right? Unless the factory sends me a special car, whoever wants to go can go, but I won’t go anyway.”

"."

Li Ye looked at the old and unruly master and couldn't help but think of the famous saying in the workplace that he had learned from his previous life - if you don't want to do this job and he doesn't want to do it, why should I do it?

During the conversation, the two came to the technical department of the factory, and Lao Ding explained his purpose to the people in the technical department.

"Old Qiu, our section chief is going to send someone to the car lamp factory. Please explain to us clearly why their quality is so poor."

"It's the same old problem. The headlights they produce are based on old technology from 20 years ago. This time they changed from round lights to square lights. The brightness is insufficient and the focus is inaccurate. It doesn't meet our technical requirements at all.
Although we have had a decades-long relationship with that place, the new products from the south are much better than theirs. When we launch our new products, we can't use inferior ones instead of good ones, right?

Lao Ding, go and tell them directly this time! If it doesn’t work again, we’ll have to change manufacturers.”

Lao Qiu from the technical department gave Lao Ding a piece of testing information and expressed his disdain for Fangshan's products.

Lao Ding handed the information to Li Ye and said with a smile, "I'm not going this time. I'm sending this newly assigned college student."

Old Qiu was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously: "Just send him alone?"

Lao Ding smiled and nodded.

Old Qiu pursed his lips and smiled at Li Ye, with a somewhat strange smile.

After the two men came out, Li Ye said nothing.

It's not like he really knows nothing, so how could he not see that there's something fishy about today's business trip?
Lao Ding chose a deserted place and whispered to Li Ye: "When you get to Fangshan, leave the test data behind and go.
And you must convey Chief Wu’s words verbatim—if the products don’t meet the standards, replace them. Remember, these are what Chief Wu said himself.”

Li Ye looked up at Lao Ding and said with a half-smile: "Master, if we cut off the cooperation with Fangshan and they come to us, the section chief will not take the blame on me, right?"

"Pfft~"

Ding Zhiwen just laughed.

Then he stretched out his finger and tapped Li Ye in the air a few times.

"You're a smart kid, but you never asked me that, and I never heard it."

"Okay, I understand, Master. Thank you, otherwise I would have fallen into a trap."

Li Ye still didn't understand why Wu Qingyi wanted to hand over the business of Fangshan Parts Factory to him. Now the Light Automobile Company is trial-producing a new generation of Beijing 1041 cars. The headlights have been changed from the previous 130 round to square, and the technical indicators have also been greatly improved.

If the original parts factory does not update its equipment, it will not be able to meet the requirements at all, and then there will be a lot of trouble and disputes!
Just replace them directly?
That's easy to say.

How much debt does this factory, which has cooperated with Li Ye for many years, owe? How many favors does it owe? Wouldn't they come to Li Ye every day?

This is going to put him, a newbie, on the fire!
"Okay, okay, just remember what I said. In the end, the responsibility won't fall on a newcomer like you. You're leaving late today anyway, so why don't you stay at Fangshan for a day, come back and fill out a form, and claim a day's departure allowance."

Old Ding patted Li Ye on the shoulder and comforted him with a few words.

But Li Ye shook his head and said, "I'm busy with my wedding! I have to rush back today."

Lao Ding smiled and said, "That's perfect, isn't it? You can continue to work on your own things tomorrow. This is two days' work anyway, and you can get an extra day's subsidy, which is two yuan and ten cents!"

Li Ye wondered, "I'm back today, can I still claim the subsidy?"

Old Ding smiled mysteriously: "You need to be flexible and use your brain. If that doesn't work, ask your elders at home."

Oh my god, Master, are you telling me how to buy invoices?
What a good master.

Li Ye carried his bag and walked out of the factory gate. He drove his own car next door and headed towards Fangshan.

But after driving for a few minutes, he stepped on the accelerator and turned back home.

You want me to do something that you are embarrassed to do?

Fuck you!

Although teacher Ding Zhiwen advised Li Ye to try his best to clear himself without offending Section Chief Wu, Li Ye had a better idea.

He went straight home and slept for most of the day. Before leaving get off work, he went to pick up Wen Leyu to have dinner and go shopping together, and also bought two floral pillows.

When he returned to the office the next morning, before Wu Qingyi could even ask him any questions, Li Ye began to complain.

"Chief Wu, where is the parts factory you mentioned? I asked along the way yesterday, but people kept saying I took the wrong bus and got lost after going back and forth. It's hard for me, an outsider, to get help!"

"Puff, cough cough cough~"

Master Lao Ding had a mouthful of tea stuck in his throat and he coughed so hard that tears came out.

Well! I taught this little apprentice to act stupid, but he turned out to be really stupid!

I'm from another place and I'm lost. What do you think I should do?

If this was just an old-fashioned guy who didn't want to make progress, then Section Chief Wu really wouldn't be able to do anything to him. But you are a newcomer, so from now on, won't Section Chief Wu be hard on you?

Section Chief Wu glanced at Li Ye coldly, then lowered his head and began to draw a bus route map on paper.

"I was inconsiderate. Go again today and make sure you complete the mission. Everyone is watching your performance!"

"I'm sorry, Chief Wu, I can't go today."

Li Ye refused directly: "I need to take a leave this afternoon to get the marriage certificate."

"."

Section Chief Wu looked up at Li Ye and said in a deep voice, "It's okay, you can go tomorrow."

Li Ye continued to shake his head: "Tomorrow is not possible either. My family will come from my hometown tomorrow to prepare for my wedding with my wife's family."

Section Chief Wu gritted his teeth and said, "What about you the day after tomorrow? You won't get married the day after tomorrow, right?"

Li Ye nodded in shock and said, "Yes, Chief Wu, how did you know that? I was just about to ask you for wedding leave!"

"."

[I'm really good at fortune-telling, but why didn't I figure out that you have the potential to be a tough guy? ]

But Section Chief Wu laughed again.

If it's really a tough one, then there's nothing to worry about.

The position of the boss in Corey has been undecided for a long time, and suddenly a graduate from Peking University came, and people thought it was a move to "younger cadres"!

Although the possibility is small, it is still worrying, isn't it?

But Li Ye himself is not enterprising, who can he blame?

You are a piece of shit and you can't help it. You deserve it!
Wu Qingyi picked up the teacup and took a sip comfortably.

Well, it’s neither lukewarm nor hot, and the taste is just right.
