The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 505 The chicken is lost!
"Uncle, why are you here so late at night?" Tian Xiaozao looked at Liu Haizhong who suddenly appeared and asked curiously, "What are you holding in your hand..."

Lieutenant General Liu Hai transferred Chen Tiantian's things from his left hand to his right hand, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face: "Well, it's almost the New Year, let's walk around..."

As he said this, he raised his foot and prepared to step inside.

Tian Xiaozao quickly turned sideways and said, "Please come in."

"Uncle Liu, please sit down first. I'll go get you a cup of tea..."

"No, no, no... Director Tian, ​​please stop busying yourself. I'll just sit for a while..."

As Liu Haizhong spoke, he placed the things in his hand on the table in Zhang Shenfei's house.

Zhang Shenfei didn't even look at anything, he just told Tian Xiaozao to go to the inner room to accompany the child to sleep.

"Okay, then you guys chat." Tian Xiaozao walked into the inner room and considerately closed the door between the two rooms.

As soon as she left, Liu Haizhong's face changed immediately and he looked at Zhang Shenfei: "Director, I heard that you and Xu Damao... I promise... I have rich work experience and many apprentices..."

Liu Haizhong began to recommend himself.

……

When Liu Haizhong walked into the Zhang family’s gate, he immediately attracted the attention of the Yan family opposite.

"Hey, old man... I just saw his second uncle carrying things to Dafei's house in the backyard..." Yang Ruihua turned his head to look at Yan Bugui who was writing, and said.

"Why did he think of giving a gift to Zhang Shenfei for no reason?" Aunt Yan was puzzled.

Yan Bugui continued writing calligraphy as he said calmly, "Don't you know yet? Zhang Shenfei has returned to the steel mill from today... and he is the director of the steel mill."

Hiss! ! Aunt Yan's pupils suddenly shrank: "He is no longer in the peeling and grating machine factory?"

"He's gone. Didn't the former Director Yang of the steel mill get promoted? Originally, everyone thought that the new director would be chosen from among the current Director Nie and Director Li.

Unexpectedly, the Ministry of Metallurgy directly sent Zhang Shenfei to the Ministry of Metallurgy. I heard that this time, the deputy factory directors and others were caught off guard...

Although Da Fei is now the factory director, it is not easy for him to stay stable in the steel mill with fierce tigers in front and pursuers behind...

I have already analyzed it for him. After Dafei arrives at the steel mill, he will have a tough battle to fight..."

Yan Bugui had already finished writing a character, put down his brush, picked up the teacup, prepared to moisten his throat, and analyzed Zhang Shenfei's situation with his wife.

Aunt Yan was shocked: "But no matter what, since Dafei can become the factory director, he must have his own abilities.

It is said that steel is the lifeblood of a country, and the steel mill is a key project in our city. Dafei is only in his thirties, right? How can he be the factory director?"

Although on the surface the director of a peeling and grating machine factory and the director of a steel rolling mill are at the same level, in fact, the director of a steel rolling mill is equivalent to the deputy mayor.

Even among all the factories under the Ministry of Metallurgy, it ranks among the best.

"Deputy Director Nie and Director Li are no pushovers... Da Fei is able to suppress them now, which is really amazing... But, you just said that he has a tough battle to fight? Can he win? If he can't win, will his fate be miserable?"

"What do you know?" Yan Bugui glanced at his wife and pointed upwards, "Da Fei also has someone in the Ministry of Metallurgy."

"Who?" Aunt Yan asked curiously.

"Minister Wen of the Ministry of Metallurgy admires Dafei very much."

"Minister Wen?"

"Yes, when he was the director, he went to the steel mill to preside over the work of the eighth-level division of labor. At that time, Dafei invented the peeling and grating machine. He reported and established the peeling and grating machine factory, which later earned a lot of foreign exchange for the country...

Thanks to this, he was able to rise to prominence in the Ministry of Metallurgy. In a sense, he and Da Fei have achieved mutual success..."

With Minister Wen's support, Yan Bugui felt that although Zhang Shenfei had a tough battle to fight, his chances of winning were still very high.

Aunt Yan listened with great interest, and finally asked curiously: "My dear, how do you know so much? You even know who Dafei's backer is?"

"It was Jiefang who told me all this. He told me the situation, and those analyses were all my own based on the actual situation..." Yan Bugui said, "I guess Lao Liu went to see Zhang Shenfei in the middle of the night, probably to give him a gift and get a small official position."

Liu Haizhong is now the team leader of the workshop, but a team leader is not an official. Liu Haizhong is just doing his job as a worker.

This guy is obsessed with power, and he wants to be a real official. It is obvious that he is no longer satisfied with just working as a worker, and wants to become a real cadre.

"Now is the time when Zhang Shenfei is in need of people. Liu Haizhong took the initiative to come to him and pledge his allegiance. Once Zhang Shenfei settles down in the Cha Steel Plant, he will be a founding hero."

Aunt Yan was shocked. She was amazed at Liu Haizhong's cleverness, but she asked, "Do you want to give us some money so that our Jiefang can give Dafei a gift?"

Their family member Jiefang also works in the steel rolling mill, and is an executive. Most importantly, he used to work under Zhang Shenfei.

If I give him some gifts now and try to build on our previous relationship, maybe the second brother can grow from a clerk to a cadre? ?
Aunt Yan was very thoughtful, but Yan Bugui shook his head after listening to her: "No, no. It's not that I don't need to...

Let’s wait for the second brother to ask us for help first, and then we can take the money.”

Aunt Yan had been married to him for many years, and she was immediately moved when she heard this: "You mean we can't just give the second brother money for free, but we have to lend it to him?"

Yan Bugui nodded with a smile: "If we rush to give the money, the second brother will just have to pay back as much as he borrows.

However, if we wait for the second brother to ask us to borrow money for a gift, we can take the opportunity to ask him to pay interest..."

It is said that brothers should settle accounts clearly, but in Yan Bugui's case, even if father and son borrow money, they have to pay interest!!!
Aunt Yan hesitated: "Last time, because of the rent issue, I had a falling out with the eldest, second, and third sons...

They also said that even if they went out to rent a house and let others earn money, they would not earn money for us.

If they ask the second child for interest again, will the child's heart become more and more distant from them?"

After all, she still relies on her three sons to support her in her old age, so Aunt Yan doesn't want to do anything too extreme.

Yan Bugui's eyes revealed a trace of contempt when he heard this: "Not counting interest? Do you think that without counting interest, the second brother will appreciate our kindness?
My dear, you are too naive. I tell you, money is the most important thing at any time.

Haven't you seen how many parents devote themselves to their children until their death?

But when they gave all their money to their children and their children were no longer of any use to them, they were forgotten about by their children and even abandoned.

Even if the parents are not good to their children, because they have enough savings, the children have to put on a smile and serve them wholeheartedly for the money.

What is it for? Isn't it just to get their inheritance after a hundred years? ? "

Ultimately, whether children are filial or not has nothing to do with whether their parents are good to them.

"If you want your children to be filial, you must have enough money. Only with money can you have capital, and only with capital can you have everything."

Yan Bugui had already thought about it. He had three sons, and as long as he had enough money, his three sons would compete for the money and rush to be filial to him.

Aunt Yan pondered for a while, thinking about the bloody examples she had seen over the years, and finally nodded in agreement with what her husband said.

The couple then gathered together to discuss how much interest they should charge Yan Jiefang. In the end, they decided on 1%, but at least not less than 8%.

……

the other side,
After Liu Haizhong left Zhang Shenfei's house, he walked with his hands behind his back, smugly walking towards the backyard.

When passing by the Intermediate Court, he met Yi Zhonghai who was helping Yi Weihong wipe his face.

He rarely took the initiative to greet the other party or call him "uncle". Instead, he looked up at the sky, snorted coldly, and walked away.

Soon he will be transformed from a worker-in-lieu-of-worker to a real cadre!!
Yi Zhonghai? He was just a street-level official who had no official position at all, and he didn't even take him seriously.

"Hey, this Old Liu... why is he still looking at the sky with his nose through his nose?" An older lady was unhappy.

"Didn't you see that he just came out of Zhang Shenfei's house? I guess this guy might get a promotion..." Yi Zhonghai smacked his lips.

The auntie already knew that Zhang Shenfei had become the director of the steel mill. Upon hearing this, she said, "My dear, Lao Liu is not as good as you in terms of qualifications and skills. Haven't you ever thought about getting a job as an official?"

"Well, I don't have that thought... Now, I just want my family to live a good life..."

Ever since he had Yi Weihong, Yi Zhonghai has always been content with having a daughter.

The auntie didn't care about these things and just said it casually.

The topic turned back to Zhang Shenfei: "Speaking of which, this is the first time such a high-ranking official has emerged from our Siheyuan over the years, right?"

"Who said it wasn't?" Aunt Chen suddenly left and came over to say, "By the way, have you seen the chickens we raise in the backyard?"

Chicken? What chicken?

Yi Zhonghai and his wife shook their heads.

Aunt Chen suddenly became anxious: "You forgot, this is the chicken my mother brought me when I went back to my parents' home some time ago!!!
It was an old hen that laid eggs. I couldn't bear to eat it, so I kept it in the backyard...

But just now when I went to the backyard to feed the chickens, I found that there was nothing in the chicken coop..."

Aunt Chen became more and more anxious as she spoke. These days, an old hen that lays eggs is a very valuable asset.

In rural areas, there has always been a saying that chicken butt banks. When brothers divide up their property, old hens are very important assets, and some even fight over uneven distribution.

The chicken was lost, and Aunt Chen became very anxious. She grabbed Yi Zhonghai's hand and asked him to call a meeting of the whole hospital.

Yi Zhonghai didn’t want to hold a meeting for the whole hospital because of this matter. After all, the last time they held a meeting, it was because of the atomic bomb explosion! !
But he couldn't ignore Aunt Chen's request, so he had no choice but to ask Aunt Chen and Aunt Yi to notify every household door to door.

Soon, the residents of the courtyard came over one after another.

The familiar tattered round table was placed back in the middle courtyard, and Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Zhang Shenfei and the other two sat on the sides of the table in a "Product" shape.

"Why did you want to have a meeting so late at night?"

"Yes, I'm ready for bed..."

"What's going on? Do you have to call us out now?"

The residents were talking about it one by one.

Aunt Chen stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Shenfei's hand: "Director Zhang, you have to help me get justice...

The chicken we kept in the backyard was lost. It was an old hen that was laying eggs!!!"

"Such a big thing happened in our courtyard. As the director of the steel factory, you can't just ignore it!!!"

Hearing this, Jia Zhang's eyes widened: "No, I said that living in this slum is not as good as living in our collective housing, right? Look, we have never lost a chicken..."

She seldom goes back to Siheyuan, but she came back today specifically to congratulate Dafei on becoming the factory director.

Who would have thought that just after entering the door, I would encounter the incident of Aunt Chen losing her chicken, so I followed the meeting and commented on it.

Of course, the main purpose is to diss those who live in slums and highlight the happy life of the working class who live in collective housing.

Aunt Liu had long since ignored her behavior, and upon hearing this, she immediately retorted: "It is not allowed to raise chickens in the collective housing, so what are you going to do without chickens?"

Bah, you show off every day that you live in a collective housing building, as if no one can afford to live there?
Just wait, our family will also live in a building soon!!

Jia Zhang was not angry even though she failed to act cool. She turned around and started to lick Zhang Shenfei again: "Director Zhang, you must help Aunt Chen get justice...

You also know that, apart from you, who else can ordinary residents of our courtyard rely on? ? "

"Isn't it? You are the head of the factory, you must handle today's matter..."

"I didn't expect that I, Mao Lao San, would live in the same yard with the factory director..."

"If a small matter like the lost chicken falls into the hands of Director Zhang, wouldn't it be easy for him to take it?"

"Stop talking. Wait and see what Director Zhang has to say..."

Aunt Chen and the residents only spoke to Zhang Shenfei and never looked at Yi Zhonghai or Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong is fine. After all, he is now under Zhang Shenfei's command.

Zhang Shenfei was valued by the masses, and he, as a follower, also felt proud of it.

But Yi Zhonghai, who was standing by, saw that Aunt Chen didn't even look at him and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

It's true that he doesn't want to go any further, but he doesn't want to go back either!

After all, he is the boss of this courtyard.

Although Zhang Shenfei is the factory director outside the courtyard, he is just a worker. He does not argue when others ignore him.

But back in the courtyard, is he, the first uncle, older than Zhang Shenfei, the third uncle? ? ?

Now the residents of the Siheyuan only care about the Third Uncle and not the First Uncle. How can he not be angry? ?

Yi Zhonghai was very unhappy and felt that his authority was challenged.

Seeing that Zhang Shenfei had already started asking Aunt Chen for details and helping her with the reasoning, he felt extremely indignant.

The masses don't understand, and you, the factory manager, don't understand either, right? ? Shouldn't you at least ask for my opinion?

No, I have to make Zhang Shenfei fall and let him know who has the final say in this courtyard...
