Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 286 Steel Rolling Mill Employees’ Congress

What do you think of the work of the Security Section? When I'm free, I really have nothing to do, but when I have something, it's basically something urgent.

Hearing the sound on the phone, He Yuanchao did not dare to neglect, and walked to the desk in a few steps and picked up the phone.

"Hey, Steel Rolling Mill Security Department..."

"Excuse me, may I ask who is Section Chief He?"

Before He Yuanchao could finish his words, a polite voice on the phone interrupted him.

Hearing the anxiety in the other party's tone, He Yuanchao subconsciously clenched the phone and said solemnly: "I'm He Yuanchao, what can I say to you?"

After receiving He Yuanchao's affirmation, the other party stopped talking nonsense and said in a polite tone: "Hello, Section Chief He, Secretary Liang asked me to inform you that the factory workers' congress will be held in the factory auditorium at 8:30 this morning."

Seeing that the trouble was not within his scope of work, He Yuanchao's tense nerves immediately relaxed.

The upgrade documents for the steel rolling mill will not be released until they are released, and this is still an urgent matter.

He Yuanchao, who guessed the reason for the meeting, muttered in his heart, and asked knowingly: "Do you know the content of the meeting?"

As soon as He Yuanchao finished speaking, the person on the other end of the phone smiled as if he had prepared in advance: "Chief He, it's a little difficult for me to ask this. Secretary Liang only asked me to inform you of the meeting, and he didn't say anything else. Didn’t say it.”

"That's it! Okay, I get it."

The person on the other side of the phone saw that He Yuanchao was no longer stalking him, and said in a relaxed tone: "If there's nothing else, Section Chief He, I'll hang up the phone. There are still many people who haven't been notified!"

"Okay, hang up!"

After putting the phone on the desk, He Yuanchao raised his hand and looked at his watch. Seeing that there was still some time, he picked up the teapot from the table and walked to the door where the thermos bottle was placed to pour a glass of water.

After traveling through time for more than half a year, He Yuanchao has basically adapted to his current life. He has even gotten a good understanding of some of the officialdom's unspoken rules.

Sometimes He Yuanchao also wonders, if he had not passed through, the original owner would have been able to do better than he did now if he stayed in the army.

Although the army was hard and tiring, he didn't have to worry about daily life.

With Chen Gang taking care of him, as long as he leads the troops well, he doesn't have to deal with this and maintenance all day long, and there are all the benefits he should have. Thinking about it, he will be much more comfortable than now.

He Yuanchao had a beautiful idea, but one thing he didn't understand was that if it hadn't been for this time travel, the grass on the grave of the original owner would have been three feet high by now, let alone a comfortable life.

Then again, even if the original owner stayed alive in the army.

With his dull and taciturn temperament, even if Chen Gang takes care of him, he will have no worries in life, but it will be difficult to say when it comes to work. After all, no one person can have the final say in the army.

Misfortune comes with blessings, and blessings come with misfortunes.

So when it comes to things in this world, before we get the exact results, we really can’t tell which choices are right and which ones are wrong.

After drinking a glass of water, He Yuanchao also stopped his boring fantasies.

After looking at the time, he estimated that it was time for cadres of his level to enter the venue, so he got up and left the office and walked to the auditorium behind the office building of the steel rolling mill.

It is said to be an auditorium, but in fact it used to be a large conference room with a red brick structure. The reason why the name was changed was simply to adapt to the current environment and reflect the new society and new trends.

He Yuanchao was tall and had long legs, so he arrived in front of the auditorium in a short while. Hearing the noisy laughter in the auditorium, He Yuanchao knew that the factory leadership team had not arrived yet, otherwise even if someone dared to speak, the noise would not be so loud, and no one would tell half-offensive jokes.

Stepping into the auditorium, it was as expected. Except for the empty podium, the place under the stage that could accommodate almost a hundred people was almost full.

The dark group of people were whispering to each other and chatting among themselves. At first glance, it looked a bit chaotic, but if you look closely, you will find that the group of people sitting under the stage are actually very distinct.

Most of the people sitting in the first few rows are cadres with level 24 or above, and behind them are the team leaders and worker representatives from each workshop.

Although the steel rolling mill has not yet put names on the chairs, everyone still tacitly searches for their own position according to their position.

Lamenting the inertia of traditional culture in his heart, He Yuanchao raised his feet and was about to walk towards an empty seat in the front row when he suddenly heard someone calling him.

"Section Chief He."

He Yuanchao turned his head and glanced in the direction of the sound, and saw Director Liu from the first workshop smiling and waving to him: "Here."

Seeing Director Liu shouting this voice, many people in the auditorium looked over. He Yuanchao walked up to Director Liu without any ink.

"Come on, Yuan Chao, you sit here and we two brothers can chat while there is no meeting."

With that said, Director Liu moved to the edge of the bench and made room for He Yuanchao.

He Yuanchao was not polite when he saw this. He sat down on the bench with a smile and said jokingly:
"I just discovered that in our factory, Brother Liu is the biggest thief. You can even choose a seat like this."

Director Liu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a complacent look on his face: "Well, why don't you choose a seat by the window? When the meeting ends, the smell of smoke all over your body will stun you.

After you hold this kind of factory-wide meeting a few more times, you will know the rules here. "

After speaking, Director Liu seemed to have not shown off enough and pretended to be old-fashioned. After patting He Yuanchao on the shoulder, he happily talked about various fishing experiences during the conference.

The two chatted for a while. Seeing that it was almost time for the meeting, Director Liu put away the smile on his face, walked up to He Yuanchao and whispered:
"Yuan Chao, tell me the truth. Do you think you can mention it to the boss this time?"

Seeing Director Liu chatting for a long time and finally asking about this matter, He Yuanchao felt a little dumbfounded.

"Brother Liu, it hasn't been long since I changed my job and came back. I guess this time it will be a bit difficult."

Seeing that the expression of regret on He Yuanchao's face didn't seem to be fake, Director Liu felt a little regretful and quickly comforted him:

"Don't think so if you are aiding Korea. The Security Department is different from other departments in the factory, and it is not impossible to make special promotions.

Besides, since you have been a soldier for so many years, your military experience will be taken into consideration by the organization. "

"Oh, I hope!"

As soon as He Yuanchao finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps outside the auditorium.

As the footsteps got closer and closer, He Yuanchao, like everyone in the auditorium, involuntarily closed his mouth and looked up at the door of the auditorium.

For a moment, no movement could be heard in the auditorium except the sound of breathing.
