Siheyuan: The legacy of Wei Wu, I can simplify everything

Chapter 233 Qin Huairu has a new backer?

Chapter 233 Qin Huairu has a new backer?
That’s right, fresh water!
Xiangjiang is backed by the mainland and surrounded by sea on three sides, although it is a good deep-water port.

But because of the lack of rivers and lakes, there is very little land.

For more than 100 years, drinking water there has basically depended on rain.

Mountain water and rainwater are the main sources of fresh water supply.

However, there are problems with uneven rainfall, including uneven droughts and floods, and uneven winter and summer. In years or seasons with scarce rainfall, water shortages often occur.

in history.

Serious water shortages occurred in Xiangjiang in 1902 and 1929, causing great losses.

Especially after World War II, there was an influx of immigrants from the interior.

Xiangjiang's population ushered in a period of rapid growth, from 1945 in 60 to 1963 million in 350.

Coupled with the booming processing and export trade in Xiangjiang, these have put great demands on water!
Plus from late 1962.

Xiangjiang experienced the worst drought since meteorological records began in 1884, and it lasted until 1963, with not a drop of rain falling for 9 consecutive months!

a time.

Mountain streams have stopped flowing, mountain ponds have dried up, and fields have cracked. The country has fallen into a state of extreme water shortage and the water supply is extremely tight.

And in this case.

Xiangjiang began to provide water within a specified time, four hours a day, and later changed to four hours every four days.

Some people may find it strange.

Since Hong Kong is surrounded by sea on three sides, why not directly purify the sea water?
But know.

Even in later generations, the cost of purifying seawater is not low.

What’s more, it was in the 60s?
So in this case.

Ye Ming used his personal space to transport fresh water from the Four Nine Cities to Xiangjiang. It was basically a money-making business.

of course.

In addition to fresh water, collecting antiques is also of great significance.

Besides making money.

The main reason is that many antiques during this period were artificially destroyed.

Some priceless paintings, calligraphy, and even ancient books were directly burned.

at this point.

Even Ye Ming felt very sorry, even heartbroken.

Rather than let these things be burned by those who do not know how to value them and do not understand their true value.

Rather.

Ye Ming collected these things himself.

I will keep the more precious and priceless antiques for my own collection, and wait until I have the opportunity to open a museum in the future.

But here comes the problem.

At present, Ye Ming's identity, every word and deed may be noticed by many people.

In addition, I have to travel frequently to and from Xiangjiang and Sijiucheng.

Naturally, it is not suitable to walk around the streets to find antiques. At this time, you need a few reliable tool people to help.

a time.

Ye Ming thought of a few names.

Master Niu, Master Pian'er, and... Uncle Guan, the Admiral of the Nine Sects!

Of course, among the three, Ye Ming is more inclined to the Nine Sect Admirals and Uncle Guan.

After all, this old man is definitely a well-known figure in the antique world, and he is also a person who loves antiques and regards antiques as his life.

As for character.

Mr. Guan's character is absolutely reliable.

But the only problem is.

Whether the other party is willing to accept this job, and Ye Ming doesn't know the specific location where Mr. Guan lives.

As for Mr. Niu and Mr. Pian'er.

I also have a certain amount of research on antiques.

Although it's not as professional as Mr. Guan's, but with Ye Ming's control, there won't be any mistakes.

In addition, antiques these days are basically at bargain prices, and you can buy a big basket with just some supplies.

Even if you accidentally make a mistake, you don’t have to worry about losing money!

thought here.

Ye Ming also hurriedly took care of the matters in the canteen, and took Ma Hua and Liu Guangtian to move the prepared meat back to the canteen.

have to say.

When they saw a large amount of meat being delivered to the kitchen of the canteen, the average workers also fell into excitement!
"Sure enough, it has to be Director Ye!"

"Look, Director Ye just took office and he immediately got us meat. This is a good director who only cares about us!"

"No, it's all Deputy Director Nie's fault!"

And hear this.

Deputy Director Nie, who happened to be passing by the canteen, also felt like he had been slapped hard, and he felt sulky in his heart.

It can be said.

This time he seemed to have nothing to lose.

But in fact, being beaten up by workers in public not only caused loss of face, but also greatly damaged his prestige.

And during this period of time.

I'm afraid it will also become the laughing stock of many workers!

Especially right now.

Hearing a group of workers praise Ye Ming so much, Deputy Director Nie seemed to be holding back an evil fire in his heart!
Precisely this time.

An uninvited guest also suddenly came to Deputy Director Nie's office and found him.

"you are?"

Looking at the fat man in front of me, he forced a smile and looked a little funny.

Even Deputy Director Nie couldn't help but sigh, how could the other party achieve such a size.

At the same time, he was recalling the person in front of him in his mind to see if there was anyone who matched his number.

But unfortunately.

Deputy Director Nie was a new arrival. At most, he could only remember the names of the director of the first workshop of the steel rolling mill, as well as the directors and deputy directors of various departments.

An ordinary seventh-level blacksmith like Liu Haizhong has no impression at all.

But fortunately, there is still some discernment in the bangs.

Seeing Deputy Director Nie looking at him with confusion, he quickly introduced him.

"Deputy Director Nie, I am Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level forger in the second workshop, and a veteran worker in the steel rolling mill."

Upon hearing this, Deputy Director Nie nodded indifferently.

"Comrade Liu Haizhong, why did you come to see me today?"

"Deputy Director Nie, maybe you don't know much yet,"

"In fact, I am not only a seventh-level blacksmith in the workshop, but I also live in the same courtyard as Ye Mi. Before that, I was the steward of the courtyard."

"There are more than 20 households and more than 100 people in the yard, all listening to my command!"

Afraid that Deputy Director Nie would not pay attention to him, Liu Haizhong also quickly tried to flatter himself by talking about the previous affairs of the courtyard manager.

It's not the boss's business to keep silent about himself.

Of course Deputy Director Nie didn't know this.

I heard that Liu Haizhong actually lived in the same courtyard as Ye Ming, and he was also the steward.

His eyes also lit up, and the eyes he looked at Liu Haizhong became a little more friendly.

"Comrade Liu Haizhong, right?"

"I didn't expect that the steel rolling mill would have a dedicated and dedicated veteran employee like you. It's our negligence that we didn't discover talents like you!"

Liu Haizhong was also stunned by what Deputy Director Nie said, and his face suddenly turned red.

It feels like a scholar would die for his confidant!
In this regard.

Deputy Director Nie felt more and more disdainful, but still smiled on the surface.

"Comrade Liu Haizhong, you said you and Ye Ming live in the same courtyard, then do you know his performance and reputation in the courtyard?"

Obviously after discovering Ye Ming's thorny side.

Deputy Director Nie planned to find another way to enjoy finding Ye Ming's loopholes from other places.

So as to avenge this arrow!
As for Liu Haizhong, when faced with Deputy Director Nie's questioning, he was just pouring beans out of a bamboo tube. He wanted to tell all the things about sesame seeds and millet.

certainly.It still contains some more important information.

For example, the grievances between Ye Ming and the Jia family, and the grievances with Yi Zhonghai, as well as eating and drinking in the yard every day, not only equipped with three bags, but also a gramophone and a radio at home!

After hearing this, Deputy Director Nie gradually became impatient.

After all, some things seemed serious to Liu Haizhong, but to Deputy Director Nie, they were nothing.

It's like a bicycle and a radio.

As the canteen director of the steel rolling mill, and now Ye Ming is also the deputy director of the committee, he is almost on an equal footing with him.

What's wrong with eating three bags of fish and eating meat every day?
Such a trivial matter is not worth using to attack the opponent!

In the somewhat expectant eyes of Liu Hai.

But I saw Deputy Director Nie also speaking.

"Comrade Liu Haizhong, like this..."

"Go to the workshop and call Comrade Qin Huairu over!"

According to Deputy Director Nie.

The grievances between Ye Ming and Qin Huairu's family are the biggest, so naturally we have to start from this point.

And heard Deputy Director Nie’s instructions.

Liu Haizhong immediately thought that Deputy Director Nie was a loser, so he ran to a workshop and called Qin Huairu.

"Are you Qin Huairu?
Looking at the pretty widow in her early thirties, Deputy Director Nie's eyes also lit up.

It can be said.

Qin Huairu's looks are quite impressive.

After all, when she was young, Aunt Thirteen’s appearance was...

Even now after giving birth.

The aura of a widow and the smell of ripe peaches.

For a middle-aged man like Deputy Director Nie who is less than 50 years old and has an old heart, it is also a great temptation!
In certain aspects.

Deputy Director Nie and Director Li both have the same problem...

That's lustful!
It's just that Deputy Director Nie has just arrived at the steel rolling mill and is busy fighting for power and profit.

Unlike Director Li, who already holds great power, he naturally has no intention to pay attention to those beautiful female workers in the steel rolling mill.

But now.

Looking at Qin Huairu in front of him.

Especially the figure that the other party revealed inadvertently made Deputy Director Nie's eyes go straight.

As for Qin Huairu,

I'm not surprised by this kind of thing.

After feeling Deputy Director Nie's piercing eyes, he looked at himself.

Not only did I not feel embarrassed, I even felt secretly happy!

After all this time.

Without the support of Sha Zhu, a blood bag, and the relationship with Yi Zhonghai becoming rigid, Qin Huairu's life was not easy.

Although her mother-in-law Jia Zhang was sent to the countryside, and Bangge was sent to a detention center.

Qin Huairu's salary is enough to support herself and her two daughters.

But without Yi Zhonghai's care, Qin Huairu naturally couldn't work openly and honestly in the workshop.

In the past, it was because of Yi Zhonghai's face that the workshop director turned a blind eye to his feelings.

And now.

After feeling that Yi Zhonghai seemed to no longer interfere in Qin Huairu's affairs.

Naturally, the workshop director no longer needed to care about Yi Zhonghai's face and severely criticized Qin Huairu's lazy behavior.

They often watch each other while they work.

Whenever he makes a mistake, he will be yelled at!
and so.

Qin Huairu also misses Si Zhu very much at this time, when she was still licking the dog.

At least there is help from the other party.

In the steel rolling mill and the courtyard, no one dared to bully him.

It can be said.

Now that Qin Huairu met Deputy Director Nie, it was like Pan Jinlian accidentally hitting Ximen Qing.

The two of them are also in love with each other...

Bah, they must be in cahoots together, they looked right!

but.

As a qualified green tea.

Even in this situation, Qin Huairu was not excited at all.

Instead, she was as weak as a little white flower and nodded towards Deputy Director Nie, her eyes full of confusion.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask you something."

have to say.

Qin Huairu's performance also made Deputy Director Nie think he had the other party under control.

Especially this shy and timid expression, but given it to Deputy Director Nie, Qin Huairu's illusion can be easily solved!

under these circumstances.

He is not busy taking advantage of the other party.

Instead, he pretended to be concerned about Qin Huairu, took the other person's palm and asked him to sit down, and then did not let go of Qin Huairu's hand, but continued to ask.

"I heard that you came to the steel rolling mill after your husband died?"

"Yes."

Qin Huairu couldn't help but nodded when she heard this, with a look of sadness on her face.

It also makes the aura of a widow in his body stronger.

"My Dongxu died in the line of duty at a young age. Unfortunately, I was still pregnant with a child at that time and my family had no financial support."

"Fortunately, the factory took pity on our family and allowed me to take up Dongxu's job in the steel rolling mill."

"Otherwise, I don't know how I will survive these years."

And heard about Qin Huairu's tragic experience.

Deputy Director Nie was not sympathetic, but thought it would be easier to manipulate Qin Huairu.

No longer covering up, he directly held Qin Huairu's two small hands.

At the same time, he pretended to comfort the other party.

"It's not easy for you as a woman to support a family. The work in this workshop is all manual labor. Have you never thought about remarrying?"

These words are no longer a hint.

Qin Huairu also struggled a little and said to Deputy Director Nie a little shyly.

"director,"

"Don't be seen like this. It will have a bad influence."

Different from Liu Haizhong.
Naturally, Qin Huairu would not call Deputy Director Nie stupidly, but directly address him as director.

And after hearing Qin Huairu's words.

Deputy Director Nie also made no secret of his aggressive eyes, as if he wanted to eat the pretty widow in front of him alive!
"Qin Huairu, I know you are a smart person, let's explain it directly."

"As long as you follow me, I will transfer you to the logistics department to look at the warehouse,"

"This way your salary will remain the same and your daily work will be much easier than in the workshop. How about that?"

Deputy Director Nie also looked convinced of Qin Huairu's situation and said with a smile.

"Really?"

Seeing that his goal was about to be achieved, Qin Huairu did not continue to pretend. Of course, he still hesitated symbolically.

"But what if someone knows?"

"If you don't tell me, no one will know. From now on, we will meet in the warehouse. Even if someone sees us, it can be said that we are counting supplies."

Speaking of this, Deputy Director Nie also took action directly.

As for Qin Huairu.

Anyway, she is a woman who has given birth to a child.

For a meal, a few steamed buns can give you an advantage.

Let alone now.

As long as you follow Deputy Director Nie, you can change your job, so naturally there will be no hesitation!
