Chapter 1117 Condolences
As if he had figured out which method was more in line with his expectations, Director Wu did not even bother to drink his tea. He stood up from his chair and said:
"Director Lu, I'm sorry to bother you this time. I know what to do next."

Lu Miao nodded slightly, smiled indifferently, and watched Director Wu leave the office.

As the door was closed with a "click", Yu Hong in the room also moved.

Yu Hong quietly put away the cups on the coffee table and was about to leave the office with the tray in her hand. But when she reached the door, she turned around in confusion:
"Senior, I don't understand."

Lu Miao opened the file bag and looked at it slowly.

She was not surprised to hear Yu Hong speak. She continued browsing the information page without raising her head and said:

"I don't understand why I didn't kick him out when he made such an unreasonable request just now?"

Yu Hong said nothing, obviously her thoughts were guessed.

Based on her understanding of her senior's temper, her attitude towards the over-exploiting Director Wu was indeed a little too friendly.

She was almost mad with anger, but her senior was able to remain calm. Besides being puzzled, Yu Hong was also somewhat shocked.

"You say what you want to say to the person you are facing. If he doesn't want to do this or that, then he can't communicate or reason with you. Choosing a rough method can solve today's problem, but he wants to make this happen, so he will definitely stick to you again later..."

After all, Director Wu and they are not in a superior-subordinate relationship, so it is useless to use coercive measures.

Lu Miao smiled gently, took a breath, looked at Yu Hong and continued:
"Instead of waiting until then, it is better to provide him with a direction and let him go back and decide for himself."

Yu Hong nodded slowly, as if she understood, but when she thought about it carefully, she was still a little confused:
"But senior, does it mean that he will never come back after he leaves this time? What if he still comes this way?"

Lu Miao smiled and said, "Didn't I just say that? I'm young and my abilities are limited. If it still doesn't work, I won't be able to do anything even if he comes again. And if he really comes, you don't know what to do?"

At this point, Yu Hong also understood.

What the senior meant was that there would be no possibility of having any plans to meet with Director Wu in person like this time.

Come to think of it, the words of their predecessors do carry some weight.

If everyone helps her, won't she be exhausted to death?
Besides, if you encounter a cooperative company like the garment factory, it would be fine to just help out a little.

Like a cotton mill? Forget it!
Why bother spending so much time and effort when you may not get any good results in the end?
Yu Hong clenched the tray in her hand and said angrily:
"If he comes again, no matter whether the senior is here or not, I will say he is not here!"

Lu Miao smiled slightly, gave her a look of approval, then looked away and continued with his own business:

"Okay, let's get to work."

"Ok!"

……

The weather is getting colder day by day, and the publicity plan mentioned in the previous meeting is also imminent.

Lu Miao had to put on hold the affairs of the factories he was handling and focus on the present.

After finishing work documents in the morning, I convened a meeting of the photography and text teams in the afternoon to discuss ideas for the plan and missing materials.

When Lu Miao holds a meeting, he is not like other ministers who bring all the team members to the meeting room.

She was relatively casual. She just called people over to her side, and they sat down together to drink tea, chat, and discuss things at the same time.

The atmosphere was not so rigorous and everyone was very enthusiastic about participating in the discussion.

After one afternoon, the publicity plan basically took shape.

When the meeting was about to end, as soon as the team members left, Minister Zhan knocked on the door and walked in:

"Busy working?"

"Almost done, please sit down."

Lu Miao smiled and nodded, then quickly stood up from the table and asked Minister Zhan to sit down.

Minister Zhan waved his hand jokingly and said:
"I won't sit down. I'm old! I'm not like you young people who like to work overtime. I'm here to say a few words. I'm going home quickly." Lu Miao looked embarrassed.

I was just teasing her by saying this!
If time wasn't really tight, who would be willing to work overtime?

Joking aside, Lu Miao still poured tea himself and asked Minister Zhan to sit down and talk.

People who work in offices always have some personal collections of food and drinks.

For example, Minister Zhan himself has his own office that specially prepares tea for entertaining important officials.

Lu Miao is like this.

She always kept Hui orchid tea in her drawer, which she herself enjoyed.

Minister Zhan drank the tea, smelled the faint tea and orchid fragrance, praised it a few words, then put down the teacup and handed the bag to Lu Miao.

Lu Miao took it over.

I originally thought it was some work material, but when I opened the bag I realized it wasn't.

These are some clothes for the children.

There were shirts for little boys, red and white doll-collared skirts for little girls, as well as malted milk, milk powder and other things.

After Lu Miao finished reading, he looked up at Minister Zhan:
"Minister, this is..."

Minister Zhan smiled and said:
"You are a good comrade of the revolution. I know your situation. You usually focus on work and have limited energy, so it is inevitable that you will neglect your family and children. Taking these things back for the children can be regarded as a little comfort and allowance compensation from the organization to you."

"Minister, I can't accept it. Although I don't have any lofty ambitions, I don't join the work for these things."

Lu Miao felt clear in her heart.

If it was a subsidy from the commune, it would have been delivered long ago.

Not only was it almost time to get off work, but it was also brought by Minister Zhan himself.

Isn't it obvious that Minister Zhan bought these things with his own money?

Minister Zhan smiled kindly. Knowing that she was smart, he didn't beat around the bush and said directly:
"The youngest of my family is in junior high school now. It's not appropriate for you to ask me to take it back, right? Or, Xiao Lu, you are not happy with me bringing it to you, and want me, with my old arms and legs, to deliver it to your home?"

"No, that's definitely not possible..."

Lu Miao opened her mouth to speak, but Minister Zhan waved his hand to interrupt her:
"Okay, since you can't, then take it! I didn't buy these things for no reason. Isn't it because the child is sick? Work is work, and you can't reject my concern and condolences for the child."

"This...that's okay."

Having said that, Lu Miao couldn't continue to refuse, so he accepted the gift and thanked him:
"Thank you, Minister, for your expense."

Minister Zhan smiled and blinked, with a weird and playful look like an old child:

"This is not a waste of money. If someone is running ahead to contribute to the country, then naturally someone will follow behind to build walls and stairs. Isn't this the most normal thing?"

Lu Miao was slightly startled, then smiled and said:

"That's what you said."

Minister Zhan also laughed.

Patting her shoulder gently, Minister Zhan smiled and stood up:
"Okay, go back early."

"Yes."

Lu Miao also stood up:
"You walk slowly."

After Minister Zhan disappeared, Lu Miao lowered his head to look at the bulging bag.

With a melancholy smile, Lu Miao tidied up his desk and followed him home from get off work.
