Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 218 Chapter 217 A mother is honored by her son? A father can be honored too!

Lin Zhe can remain calm and indifferent when facing people like Deng Yanmin, but Lao Lin is different.

The huge changes in the family because of Lin Zhe have only happened in the past two years. The attitude has not changed much in the past few years. What's more, Old Lin is still a member of the unit, so he is naturally a little scared when facing someone of Deng Yanmin's level.

For a moment, Lao Lin stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.

However, Deng Yanmin was very easy-going, and he was naturally very polite when facing Lin Zhe's father.

"Mr. Lin's father, right? You really cultivated a talent for our Quanhe."

As he spoke, Deng Yanmin stood up and walked forward to shake hands with Lao Lin.

At this time, Lao Lin also hurriedly said hello.

"Hey, boss, I was just complaining just now, please don't take it to heart."

Upon hearing this, Deng Yanmin shook his head seriously.

"Don't take it to heart? You can't do that. You have to take it to heart!"

After saying this, Lao Lin's heart began to beat fast. For a moment he didn't know what this was for. Even if someone was trying to make things difficult for him, there was no need to do it so "blatantly" in his own home, right?

But even if he really had to embarrass himself because of his two complaints, Lao Lin was not afraid.

After all, he is just an ordinary clerk, and he doesn't think about any promotion before retirement. Besides, at worst, he can retire early and go home to enjoy his retirement. Having Lin Zhe as his son is his greatest confidence.

In the blink of an eye, many thoughts emerged in Lao Lin's mind, but then Deng Yanmin spoke next.

"I have to apologize to grassroots cadres like you, Lao Lin. There are indeed some people in our city who make decisions on the spur of the moment, which is very troublesome. This must be corrected!"

After saying that, Deng Yanmin didn't play any tricks. He took out his mobile phone, searched for a number and dialed it.

He has a table on his phone, which contains the contact information of all the leaders of various units in Quanhe.

Lao Lin works in a unit of Lincheng Water Conservancy Department, and he knows this.

The person making the call was not the person in charge of Lincheng Water Conservancy, but the head of Quanhe City Water Conservancy Bureau.

……

At this time, the person in charge of the Quanhe City Water Conservancy Department was relaxing at home watching TV.

He frowned when the phone rang. It couldn't be that someone was calling him at this time and wanted him to do something for him, right?
When I saw that the phone number had no remarks, I just took a look and chose to ignore it.

There are no remarks, so you can't be sure who the person is. If you don't see it, you won't be bothered. Just don't answer it. If you have something to say, you have to wait until working hours to talk about it.

The call automatically hung up after he didn't answer it, but it soon started vibrating again, which made him a little annoyed.

After thinking about it, I just clicked the connect button.

"Who are you? If you have anything to say, come to work tomorrow and talk about it."

“I am Deng Yanmin”

……

After hearing the name, the person in charge of Quanhe Water Conservancy also lost his grip and the fruit in his other hand fell to the ground.

No one knows the value of these three words better than him.

After answering the phone, he changed his attitude and even sat up straight on the sofa, as if he was in a meeting, and then kept nodding in agreement.

……

"Don't keep thinking about those messy things. Isn't it the greatest benefit to do your job well? Right? Don't think about tormenting our grassroots staff..."

Deng Yanmin was talking on the phone while the person on the other end could only nod continuously.

After the phone call ended, Lao Lin who was listening next to him was also stunned.

My goodness, where was this call made from?
……

Since Lao Lin was back, he naturally sat at the table. In the middle of the meal, Jiang Lan came and added another dish.

The four of them drank more than a box of beer, and when the driver arranged by Lin Zhe arrived, Deng Yanmin said goodbye with his son.

As soon as Deng Yanmin left, Lin Zhe and Lao Lin cleaned up the "remnants" on the table together, and then returned to their rooms.

At this time, Jiang Lan was already doing her skin care before going to bed.

She kept patting her face with the high-end skin care products that Lin Zhe gave her, and when Old Lin came in, she spoke with some curiosity.

"Why are you so timid when dealing with Xiaozhe's father? Why did you even toast him several times?"

Hearing this, Lao Lin also smiled.

"Xiaozhe's father? That's Deng Yanmin! Haven't you heard of this name in the news?"

She had already felt vaguely familiar with the man, and now that Lao Lin mentioned him, Jiang Lan also remembered him. This name was often mentioned in the Quanhe News, and she immediately knew who Deng Yanmin was.

Now Jiang Lan couldn't sit still anymore.

"Ah? Deng Yanmin? I was wondering why he looked familiar. It turned out to be him who was sitting in our house drinking!"

"I was wondering if Xiaozhe's father had some business matters to ask Xiaozhe, and it turns out to be him!"

"Tsk tsk, our Xiaozhe is really promising. He is such a person that can come to our house and bring gifts to visit us on his own initiative."

After taking a sip of water, Lin Zhengdong smiled and nodded.

"That's right. Our Xiaozhe has really made it. I don't know who Deng Yanmin called today, and I don't know if it worked."

……

The next morning, Lin Zhe would naturally sleep in if he had nothing special to do, not to mention that he had drunk a few beers last night.

After Deng Yanmin and others left, he returned to his room alone, sat in front of the computer, watched a movie and drank a few bottles.

But Lao Lin still got up on time, washed up, had breakfast, and went to the office with his briefcase.

The old residential area where Lin lived was not far from his workplace. Old Lin was "showing off" for a few days after Lin Zhe gave him a car, but later he resumed taking Route 11 to go to work, which was not far to walk to.

Just think of it as getting up early and exercising.

It’s the same now after moving here, and the distance to my workplace is even closer.

Coming out of his villa and walking along the roadside towards his workplace, Lao Lin met several people who took the initiative to greet him.

Ever since Lin Zhe became successful, everyone in Lincheng naturally knows him, and it also makes him proud as his father. Even though he doesn't recognize people on the street, they know him.

After responding with a smile and a nod, Lao Lin also quickened his pace.

There is still a lot of work to do today. I have to go early, finish early, and leave early, otherwise I will have to work overtime until late at night like yesterday.

As for Deng Yanmin's words, Lao Lin didn't really take it to heart.

After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current manager, so I don’t have much hope.

……

In this way, Lao Lin also came all the way to the unit.

It was the same as usual. I first took out a teacup and made a pot of hot tea, then took a few sips while it was still hot before starting to prepare for work.

Under the glass plate on the table was a photo of Lin Zhe when he first appeared in the Lincheng Evening News. Not long after, colleagues from the unit gradually arrived, and Lao Lin also got ready to continue the registration.

But when I asked for the watch, I received a piece of news.

"Register? What registration? The higher-ups just sent out a notice this morning, and the previous requirements are invalid! We don't have to fill out that crappy form day and night."

After saying this, my colleague's face was full of joy.

Their unit has been "tortured" by this requirement recently, and now that they suddenly don't have to do this work, everyone is naturally refreshed.

"Yeah, I don't know what's going on, they suddenly said we don't need to do it anymore, or it was a notice issued by the city."

"Hehe, anyway, finally I don't have to do this anymore."

When Lao Lin heard the discussions among his colleagues in the office, he immediately thought of the reason.

What other reason could there be? It must be because of the phone call Deng Yanmin made at home last night.

Thinking of this, Lao Lin also laughed out loud.

As a person who is naturally "boastful", Lao Lin naturally couldn't hold back on this matter.

What's more, this is a good thing in itself and there is no need to keep it secret.

Looking at the colleagues around him who were all smiling, Lao Lin also smiled, took another sip of hot tea, and then continued speaking.

"Ahem, do you guys know who I drank with last night?"

When he said this out of the blue, several colleagues in other offices looked over curiously.

Then Lao Lin said Deng Yanmin's name.

If someone else said this, I'm afraid few people would believe it, but the person who said this was Lin Zhengdong. Who is Lin Zhengdong? He is their old colleague and also the father of the boss of Zhetong Electric Power Group, the largest enterprise in Quanquanhe City.

Considering Lin Zhe's status, it's normal for Deng Yanmin to drink at their house.

"Wow~ Is Lao Lin real? That's Deng Yanmin. People like us don't even get to meet him during inspections. At most, we can only see him in newspapers and on TV."

"Oh my god, Deng Yanmin came to your house for a drink? I'm so envious. Let alone Deng Yanmin, even if the head of our unit came to my house for a drink, I'd be so happy for a long time."

"How are you people?"

After hearing this, Lao Lin smiled and responded in a pretentious manner.

"He's quite nice, and not too arrogant. When I toasted him, I even lowered my glass very low."

"By the way, I reported this issue when I got home last night, and someone called me right away. I don't know who was on the phone, but I got scolded by Deng Yanmin. I guess the change in the notice was related to this phone call."

……

Although they were all junior clerks, what Lao Lin said made sense. Otherwise, they would not understand why the agreed matter was suddenly changed.

Then someone with a colleague in the city also spread the news.

It was said that the head of their city's water conservancy department was scolded by Deng Yanmin over a phone call late at night, so he asked his secretary to redraft the notice that night and sent it out early this morning.

This also confirms what Lao Lin said.

For a while, Lao Lin became popular again in the unit.

Last year, Lao Lin became popular when he drove a brand new Mercedes Benz into the company, but after a while everyone got used to it and it wasn’t anything new anymore.

But this time, Lao Lin brought up the matter again in front of Deng Yanmin, and a phone call from him relieved them of their heavy work.

What is this? In their unit, apart from Lao Lin, even their leaders would have a hard time reporting this, but Lao Lin was drinking and chatting happily with a person like Deng Yanmin at home last night.

Just a few words during the banquet were enough for him to make a phone call directly to their boss's boss in the city.

Everyone has been very busy these days because of that matter. Now that he is freed, Lao Lin naturally becomes a "hero" in the unit.

Everyone who meets Lao Lin has to praise him a few words.

Even Director Zhang from their unit specially invited Lao Lin to his office to sit for a while and personally made tea for Lao Lin.

"Lao Lin, you've done a great thing for us."

To be honest, even if Lao Zhang wanted to react, he didn't have the qualifications for fear of offending someone, but Lao Lin could really do it.

"Next time you talk to our superiors, you must say something nice about our company. It will be a great achievement~"

……

Lao Lin was very tired at work yesterday, but after today's shift he felt refreshed from head to toe.

It is said that a mother is honored by her son, and Lin Zhengdong has also experienced the saying that a father is honored by his son.

On the other side, after Lin Zhe woke up at home, he had dinner and went to his own small supermarket.

Lin Zhe has been very busy recently and has been outside all the time. This time he came back, he planned to stay for a few more days. Today, he happened to be free, so he went to the supermarket to check out the situation.

I have heard that the "Hutu Wine" that I collaborated with my uncle on is in great demand.

As I walked along, I met many strangers who greeted me on the road, and some even asked me to take photos with them.

Although Lin Zhe has a big business outside, he does not have such treatment at present.

But in Lincheng, Lin Zhe really felt like a "star".

Among those who wanted to take photos with him, there were elderly men and women. After seeing him, they wanted to take a photo with such a big shot as Lin Cheng.

There were also middle-aged working people and young men shouting that Lin Zhe would definitely become the next big thing.

Of course, the young girls from Lincheng are also there. They look a little shy and timid, which is really endearing.

He welcomed everyone on the road and it took Lin Zhe more than 20 minutes to walk a distance that took less than ten minutes.

I'm finally at my own store, and my mother is also in the store at this time.

Currently, Zhetong Electric Power has several major plant areas, including the newly opened Shancheng Andan plant area and the relatively smaller Shima Town plant area and Mingpu plant area.

The factory supermarkets in the other three factory areas, Fengxiang Factory, Shouli Factory and Binhai Factory, are all open, but Jiang Lan has someone to look after them and she doesn't have to go there on weekdays.

It's like sitting around doing nothing anyway. Jiang Lan has gotten used to running this small supermarket for decades.

So now I often come to the store to take over shifts and check on the store.

When Lin Zhe came in, she took a look and then pointed to something on the cabinet inside.

"I just bought some roujiamo. Go and eat it. It's from Lao Li's restaurant."

Lin Zhe didn't hesitate, he took it and started eating, while eating, he started looking for the wine storage area in his own supermarket.

There was no trace of Hutu wine in the area where white wine was kept, nor in the area where red wine was kept.

He looked at the row of shelves selling beer but couldn't find it either. Finally, Lin Zhe looked for it at the place where the beverage boxes were placed in front of the cash register, but still couldn't find it.

Lin Zhe was naturally very familiar with his own shop. After looking around and not finding anything, he spoke up.

"Mom, where's the Hutu wine? Did you forget to stock our store? I looked around and why isn't it there?"
