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

Chapter 269 Chapter 268 Encountering an emergency mission with the operator

It is not an exaggeration to say that Lin Zhe is Lao Wang's benefactor, although Lin Zhe has always believed that it is nothing and that he paid Lao Wang to look after the factory, it was just an equal relationship.

But it’s different for Old Wang. In his world, if it weren’t for Lin Zhe, he really wouldn’t be able to change his life.

His life was very simple. He felt that if he could drink a bottle of liquor worth dozens of yuan every now and then and have a meal of pork head, he was having a good life.

But before Lin Zhe returned to his hometown to establish Zhetong Electric Power Group, Lao Wang's conditions were really limited. This life, which might seem easy to most people, was just a "luxury" that could only be enjoyed during festivals.

Although I have a minimum living allowance, I still have to buy some necessary rice, flour, grain and oil first after receiving a few hundred yuan every month.

Occasionally I have to buy medicine or other things. Although Liberation shoes are durable, I have to spend more than ten yuan to replace them with a new pair after wearing them for a long time. These are necessary expenses.

My wife passed away early, and my child has no future in this educational environment. He can only work outside to barely make ends meet.

Therefore, Mr. Wang never causes trouble to his children. In his opinion, it’s OK that he can’t help his children like other parents, but he must not cause any trouble to them at all.

Anyway, I can continue to live even if I am financially strapped.

This kind of life will continue unless something unexpected happens.

But then Lin Zhe appeared, the child of the old Lin family.

As a local, Old Wang knew Lin Zhe. He knew that the promising Lin family had a child who was admitted to university.

After he came back, he started tinkering with generating electricity in the old tile factory opposite his house.

In the beginning, Old Wang was actually like most people in the town. He believed that the boy from the Lin family would not be able to accomplish anything. Not to mention that most of the newly opened power companies could not succeed.

At least the investment is there, even if it is just to install a generator set or something.

But the kid from the Lin family didn't do anything. He just built a pond in such a shabby place and said he was going to generate electricity through biomass. This doesn't sound very reliable.

Of course, as the neighbor across the street, he doesn’t look very reliable.

Originally, Old Wang thought that this kid from the Lin family was wealthy and could support Lin Zhe's business venture, which seemed "nonsense" and was estimated to be bankrupt in a few months.

But who knew that one day Lin Zhe would come to the door directly.

Old Wang remembers that time very clearly, because his house was not bare but it looked really dilapidated, just like the old houses in the village. Although the exterior was made of cement and red bricks, there was a fire pit in the main room as soon as you entered the house.

Although liquefied gas has become popular, Lao Wang still feels that it is worthwhile to take time to collect some firewood in the back mountain.

Anyway, for people like me, time is the least valuable, and energy can be sold as much as possible.

This also caused the house to look black and smoke-filled, not to mention that I was a five-guarantee household.

No one cares about being poor even in a busy city, not to mention that Shima Town is a small town. Apart from a few five-guarantee households similar to Lao Wang who occasionally come to the town, no one usually comes to visit.

So when Old Wang, who was lighting a fire, saw Lin Zhe walk into his house that day, he was still very surprised.

There was really nothing good at home, and he was afraid that people would not like the tea he made, so Old Wang searched for a while and found a box of yogurt and handed it over.

This is a box of yogurt that a relative brought to me a few months ago. I couldn't bear to drink it. Although it is very cheap, it is the best thing Lao Wang can offer.

"It's a bit inferior, please don't despise it."

In response to this, Lin Zhe smiled, inserted the straw and started drinking without hesitation. Then he told Lao Wang that he wanted to invite him to take a look at the factory opposite.

Especially online, let him take care of it. After all, the equipment inside is valuable, especially the pool of "Volt Ants" is Lin Zhe's most precious thing. Someone has to be found to look after it when Lin Zhe is not around at night.

When he heard this, he realized that it was just about being a security guard for someone, so Lao Wang agreed immediately.

For this job, Lao Wang is willing to do it. He would be willing to do it even if he is paid 1,800 yuan a month, which is already a lot for him.

But when Lin Zhe saw that he agreed, he offered him a salary and directly offered him two thousand yuan a month.

This amount of money may not mean much to people in cities and most rural areas, but it is a huge sum of money for five-guarantee households like Lao Wang.

The cash he could get in a year was only a few thousand yuan for basic living allowance. Now Lin Zhe hired him and all he had to do was look after the factory. He could earn his annual salary in a month and a half. How could he not be willing?

So with Lao Wang's thanks, the matter was settled.

……

What happened next was that Lao Wang never thought that he would actually be able to experience what it was like to go to work in his lifetime.

In the past, when he met acquaintances on the road, the questions they would ask would either be "Have you eaten?" or "Where are you doing?" In such situations, Lao Wang could only answer "Taking a walk" or "Gathering firewood."

Now, when he meets an acquaintance on the way to the opposite side after dinner, Lao Wang can confidently reply, "I'm going to work."

This is a happy time for Old Wang. Although he lives opposite the factory, Old Wang has been watching the factory since Lin Zhe and others left the factory at around five o'clock. Then he has to come over from time to time to inspect it in the evening. He definitely does his job well.

In this way, Lao Wang changed from being a person who believed that Zhetong Electric Power would not exist for a few months to a person who hoped that Zhetong Electric Power would get better and better. And it was not only a hope, but Lao Wang also firmly believed it.

The reason is simple, that is, Old Wang thinks Lin Zhe is a good person, and good people deserve to succeed!

……

In this way, as time passed, Zhetong Power slowly began to take over all the users in Shima Town, and then moved out of Shima and began to supply electricity to the nearby Liangshui Town.

The next step was to completely take over Qingchuan Electric Power, and most of its employees were also recruited by Zhetong.

Seeing Zhetong Electric Power getting better day by day, Old Wang is really happy.

In the past, I just needed to look after the factory, but now, in addition to the factory, there are also a lot of power supply trucks parked outside.

Although there is a little more work to do during the inspection, Old Wang is still very happy. The more cars there are, the happier he is as it proves that the group is getting bigger.

Later, the group began to build new factories in Lincheng and started to move towards the city.

After the new factory building was built and put into use, the old factory building naturally became empty. All the equipment and "Volt Ants" inside were moved over, and the old factory building was locked with an iron lock.

Old Wang was also transferred from the opposite side of his home to the new factory building, and officially became a member of the security department of Zhetong Electric Power.

The security department is basically full of strong retired men. Old Wang is a special case. He is older and naturally not that strong.

So the group also takes good care of him, and the other people in the security department are responsible for work such as patrolling and guarding outside.

But Lao Wang was directly assigned to the gatehouse. His salary was the same but the work was much easier. He was only responsible for entry and exit registration in the air-conditioned gatehouse.

For this reason, Old Wang has always been concerned about Lin Zhe and the group.

What's more, his salary has increased dramatically since he officially started working, doubling from 2,000 yuan. Occasionally, with some holiday benefits, he can get nearly 5,000 yuan.

On weekdays, the salary is more than 4,000 yuan, and during the Chinese New Year, there is even a year-end bonus of 10,000 yuan, which is not a small amount.

Old Wang had never imagined that a day like this would come true before, but it actually came true at this moment.

Although his five-guarantee household status has been cancelled, Mr. Wang's life is much better now than before.

As for the pork head and bottled wine at the beginning, now he can have some every day as long as he wants. Old Wang is thinking, if this is not a good life, what is a good life? And as the salary increases, Old Wang, who has never been able to help his son, can also help out, thinking that most of the salary can be saved and left to his son.

Such a change is earth-shaking for Old Wang, and Lin Zhe is his benefactor.

……

This time, Old Wang was naturally very happy to see Lin Zhe again.

"Mr. Lin."

Lin Zhe would naturally not forget Lao Wang. Strictly speaking, Lao Wang was also one of the first employees of the group, but he did not go through the recruitment process at the beginning, so his employee number was naturally put at the back of the list.

This can be considered as unlucky. After all, Lin Zhe did not plan to hire Lao Wang for a long time. He just wanted to find someone to help look after the factory at night.

Later, when Lin Zhe was distributing rewards to the first batch of old employees of the group, he was unable to include Old Wang. It was not because Lin Zhe was reluctant to pay extra money, but because Lin Zhe did not want to set a precedent within the group.

Old Wang didn't have any complaints about this matter. He was already very satisfied with it.

Now I am very happy to see old Wang Linzhe again. After all, he is one of the earliest employees to accompany me.

"Uncle Wang, how are you feeling lately? Is everything alright?"

As for Wang Shuqing, Lin Zhe either called him Engineer Wang or Uncle Wang. The same went for Old Wang. Lin Zhe called him Uncle Wang from the very beginning.

Seeing it now won't change anything.

Hearing Lin Zhe calling him Uncle Wang, Old Wang was shocked and felt very happy. This was probably the only one in the entire group, not only in the old factory in Shima Town, but also in him and Wang Shuqing, who were called Uncle Wang.

"No problem, I'm fine! You're a rare visitor this time. You haven't been back for a long time."

After nodding with a smile, Lin Zhe took out the cigarette box, took out a cigarette and handed it to Lao Wang, and then lit it for Lao Wang himself.

"Xiao Zhang, go get something."

"Hey, Mr. Lin, I'll go right away."

As he said that, Zhang Chen trotted to the car to get something.

This time when he came back, Lin Zhe had naturally prepared early to go back to the old factory and brought a lot of things with him.

……

They just stood there and didn't rush to go in. Lin Zhe, Lao Wang and Wang Shuqing, the three "old employees", started chatting here. They all laughed heartily when they talked about some interesting things when the group was first established.

After a few minutes, Zhang Chen ran back panting with something in his hand.

"Boss Lin, everything is here."

Lin Zhe had separate arrangements for several people, and the gifts he sent were different from those for others.

This naturally includes Lao Wang, the original doorman.

"Old Wang, just take these things. Don't be disgusted and don't refuse them."

As he spoke, Lin Zhe put all the things that Zhang Chen brought into the guard room, including several boxes of supplements, all of which were of relatively high quality.

There was also a gift bag, which contained two bottles of Wuliangye, a pack of Huazi and an envelope. This one was for Lao Wang.

He opened his mouth subconsciously but nothing came out because Lin Zhe told him not to be shy. He gave the gift sincerely and there was no need for any immediate return.

"Thank...thank you, Mr. Lin."

"We are old friends now."

After saying that, Lin Zhe patted Old Wang on the shoulder and walked in.

The total amount of things inside is not as much as what was given to the top ten employees of the group last time, but it is more than that given to other employees of the old factory one. It can be regarded as a little compensation given by Lin Zhe to Old Wang out of selfishness.

……

Back in the guard room, Old Wang was moved when he looked at the boxes of supplements. As for the cigarettes and alcohol, they were high-end goods that could be seen at a glance. However, he also guessed what the envelope under the gift bag was after taking a look.

This is consistent with Mr. Lin's character. He is always very practical and never pretentious.

I reached out and took out the envelope, which was heavy.

When I opened it and took a look, I saw a stack of red bills, with two neatly arranged stacks inside. Needless to say, there were 20,000 yuan.

This was a huge sum of money for Old Wang, but he sighed after feeling happy.

To be honest, he was only grateful to Lin Zhe, but Lao Wang also knew his own abilities. He felt that he would never be able to repay Lin Zhe's kindness in this lifetime, so he could only helplessly hope for the next life.

"Boss Lin, I don't have much education and I don't know what to say. I also know that you don't need me to do anything and I can't do anything. In the next life, I, Old Wang, will continue to show you the factory."

……

On the other side, as soon as Lin Zhe entered the door, he saw several power workers carrying equipment and walking quickly towards the power supply vehicle.

The squad leader in charge confirmed the location through the walkie-talkie as he walked.

"The chicken farm in Wangjiazhuang Village, Liangshui Town, right? The circuit is burnt out and needs to be replaced, right? OK."

After saying that, the squad leader asked people to put the things in, and then planned to get on the car together.

Because the factory building in Shima Town is relatively small, although it is the oldest factory, it is indeed the smallest one, and there is a parking lot right at the entrance.

At this time, Lin Zhe also encountered the time to go on a mission.

It was at this moment that the staff on this shift saw Lin Zhe when they were all in the car and were about to close the door.

"Damn it, Mr. Lin?"

"It's really Mr. Lin."

Normally they would come to say hello at this time, but now they have a mission to accomplish, and according to the group's work requirements, the task of emergency power repair is the top priority.

So after a moment of silence, the squad leader came back to his senses.

The brothers in the class were also stunned for a moment before they reacted. No matter who it was, Lin Zhe had to carry out the mission first.

The car door was closed, the car started, and the staff from the electrical operation team lowered the window as they passed by to greet Lin Zhe.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, but now we have to go out and carry out the mission first."

This scene made Lin Zhe laugh and cry, and he waved his hands repeatedly to signal his brothers to go first.
