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

Chapter 344: Hospitality
The moment Wang Shuqing saw Lin Zhe, he froze in place again.

To be honest, the identities of the two people are very different now. If we have to find a common point, it is probably that they are both strangers in Shima Town.

Now Lin Zhe is a boss with a huge fortune and a guest of honor everywhere, while he is just a retired old man in his hometown. He cannot be said to have made much contribution to Zhetong, but he has lived up to his work and the salary given to him by Lin Zhe.

Now that I'm retired under such circumstances, let alone the chance to see Lin Zhe again, I would be satisfied if the new Zhetong people who come to the Zhetong Museum could greet me and say a few words to me cheerfully.

Who would have thought that Lin Zhe would still be the same as he was back then, without any airs at all. He greeted her enthusiastically as always, and then he took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to her.

"Come, Wang Gonghuoer."

As he said this, Lin Zhe even added fuel to the fire for Mr. Wang.

Wow, there are probably not many people in the country who have the privilege of having Lin Zhe light their cigarettes personally. This is enough to prove everything.

Lowering his head and stretching out his hands to block the wind, Mr. Wang lit a cigarette and took a few puffs.

"Wow~ This cigarette is different."

Seeing Mr. Wang's emotional expression, Lin Zhe continued to speak with a smile.

"I know you like this, so I put a few cartons of cigarettes and liquor in the trunk of my car. When I go back later, I can go to your house for a meal, okay?"

This sentence made Wang Shuqing overjoyed. What Lin Zhe had done just now had completely proved something. Now Lin Zhe took the initiative to visit him, which further proved his position in Lin Zhe's mind.

"Okay! Of course I am willing! How can I not be willing? This is your wife, right? Wow, she is so pretty and has such a good temperament."

Although Yan Xi had never met Mr. Wang before, he had heard about him just now and knew that Wang Shuqing was the number one employee of Zhetong Electric Power Group. When Lin Zhe founded Zhetong Electric Power Group, Wang Shuqing was the first employee.

Moreover, Lin Zhe's words were full of respect for the old man who had helped him in the past and was also the earliest member of Zhetong, so Yan Xi also regarded himself as a junior in front of Wang Shuqing.

When he heard Wang Shuqing asking Lin Zhe, he took the initiative to step forward and greeted him with a smile.

"Yes, Mr. Wang, I often hear Lin Zhe mention you. You seem to be in good spirits. Thank you for your hard work for Lin Zhe."

"Hehe, what's so hard about this? You two are a perfect match, it's a blessing for both of you to be together, haha."

……

The three of them stood here and chatted for a while. When they saw that it was Lin Zhe, fellow villagers from other towns around came forward. Many of them took out their mobile phones to take pictures, but Lin Zhe did not stop them.

Their idea was very simple, because Lin Zhe was a big shot in the local area, so if they shot a video of him and posted it on a video website, it would become a small hit.

Moreover, the local area is just such a small town. Although a giant enterprise like Zhetong Electric Power has emerged from here, it is still essentially the same small town. The return of a figure like Lin Zhe to his hometown is definitely a big deal for the local area.

So everyone called their friends to spread the news, and posted videos of themselves shaking their heads.

The caption is quite plain and simple.

"Lin Zhe is back!"

"Look who this is! Our Shima Town's big shot is back home!"

"I can still meet Lin Zhe while playing cards in the village. What big day is today?"

……

In Shima Town Police Station.

Compared with before, most of the official units in Shima Town have been renovated now, thanks to Zhetong Electric Power, because Lin Zhe left a factory in the local area.

The electricity generated by the entire factory is supplied to the entire Lincheng County. The electricity bill generated each year is not a small amount. Because the old factory is located in Shima Town, the electricity bill received by Lincheng for the generated electricity can be regarded as tax revenue for Shima Town.

Not to mention the more than 100 employees at the old factory of Zhetong Electric Power in the local area. In addition, there are more than 200 people in the museum and the forest farm’s local factory area. All the five insurances and one fund are paid here every month.

Including the personal income tax of these employees, all of which are paid locally.

All of a sudden, the town was not very wealthy, but at least it was not as poor as before. Therefore, the locals of Shima Town, from the upper and lower classes, were basically very grateful to Zhetong Electric Power.

Especially since Lin Zhe is a native of Shima Town, this makes them feel close to each other naturally.

The staff here were on duty as usual, but soon someone noticed the videos posted by many people at the same time, which all contained news about Lin Zhe appearing in Shima Town. Lin Zhe was now outside the Zhetong Museum.

After seeing this news, the director couldn't sit still anymore.

My goodness, that's Lin Zhe, a figure that even the city's top leader has to accompany. And now he suddenly appears in his hometown, Shima Town. If a crowd gathers and pushes him and something happens, it seems that even ten hats will not be enough for him to take off.

So he immediately stood up and shouted towards the duty room.

"Hurry up, brothers! Call everyone you can, and get them all to the town. The key is to go to the Zhetong Museum to maintain order!"

After saying that, he put on his belt, then put on the red and blue flashing light strip on his shoulder, and personally led the team to rush to the Zhetong Museum.

There are only a dozen people in this town's station, but it is enough. Except for two on duty, the rest are all dispersed.

If this was before Zhetong Electric Power appeared, there would only be seven or eight people in total, which would be considered an expansion.

……

On the other side, Lin Zhe and Engineer Wang chatted for a while before taking Yan Xi to the museum. Not to mention Yan Xi was curious, even Lin Zhe himself was quite curious. After all, he had been here once before the construction started, but he had only seen what it looked like in photos after it was repaired.

Apart from anything else, the layout outside and the lack of tall buildings are really comfortable, and the weather is good today, so I might as well just treat it as taking my wife on a trip.

On the other side, Wang Shuqing excitedly returned to the small stone table and picked up his kettle.

"Old Wang, what are you doing? Don't you want to play cards?"

"What the hell, Lin Zhe is coming to my house for dinner later, I have to go back and ask my wife to prepare a few more dishes."

Just now Wang Shuqing still called Lin Zhe "General Lin", but at Lin Zhe's repeated request, he changed back to Lin Zhe's name and removed this title.

According to Lin Zhe, when he was in the group before, it didn't matter if Wang called him that because of the work relationship, but now Wang has retired, it feels weird to be called by him, so he just calls him by his own name. Wang was naturally willing to do so, after all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the relationship between the two was not ordinary, and he was probably the only one in Zhetong Power Group who could call him "Lin Zhe".

After saying that, Wang Shuqing rushed home with a kettle and a proud look on his face. He would not prepare any additional meals for his son when he came back. At most, he would add one or two more dishes when his grandson came.

But since Lin Zhe is here, we have to go back and get it ready quickly.

By the way, thinking of this, Wang Shuqing quickly took out his mobile phone and called his son.

"Work? Hurry up, take a leave and go to the seafood market or vegetable market in the city to buy some fresh seafood. Buy whatever is expensive. I'll reimburse you. Then drive back quickly. I'm waiting for you at home and need it urgently."

Wang Shuqing's son was confused when he heard his father say this. He only realized that there were guests coming to his house, but he couldn't do this when there were guests? He was still at work and he asked for leave to buy groceries and send them home?
"Dad, you can't treat me like this no matter what kind of guest you are. How can I tell my boss about this? I said I have guests at home and I have to go buy groceries? You must be joking."

After hearing his son's words, Wang Shuqing spoke directly.

"I told you to go quickly and stop talking nonsense. The customer is Lin Zhe! Mr. Lin from Zhetong Electric Power! Do you understand?"

When this name appeared on the phone, Wang Shuqing's son was stunned for two seconds and then spoke directly.

"Okay dad, I'll go right away."

After hanging up the phone, he walked out of the office quickly, said hello, and hurried to the vegetable market in Lincheng.

Putting aside other things, Mr. Lin is my great benefactor. The car I am driving now was given to my father by him, and now it has been given to me.

The whole family has to thank Lin Zhe. Moreover, with his status, he can have dinner at their home. Not to mention being absent from work for a while, he would do it even if he quit his job.

……

Although he was the boss, Lin Zhe and Yan Xi still let the people in the queue in front go in first, and then he went in himself.

In a short while, many residents of the town had gathered outside the Zhetong Museum. Even people from nearby villages and neighboring Liangshui Town heard the news and drove over.

All the people from the Shima Town police station were in place and began to maintain order. At the very least, they wanted to prevent any trouble from happening simply because there were too many people.

On the other side, Lin Zhe and Yan Xi finally walked in.

I have to say, this place was indeed built according to his own ideas. It has some industrial style but is also very comfortable. Many of the things inside are things that Lin Zhe himself has rarely seen before.

I don't know where the electrician team got the wrenches and other tools from.

"Haha, these kids~"

But it doesn't matter. After all, this is indeed a witness to the work of the first power team of the year. And Zhetong Power has only been established for a few years? I asked my people to come out of the whole museum. How can there be no exhibits?
It really gave them a lot of trouble, as they got these things from various places.

Here, Yan Xi also found the record of Lin Zhe's first appearance in a newspaper, which was the original Lincheng Daily. Old Lin at home still has several copies of it.

"Hubby, you looked quite immature at that time."

Hearing Yan Xi's voice, Lin Zhe also leaned closer to take a look. It was true.

I was just a rookie at that time, but fortunately I met a noble man, Huang Yuanwei, who not only provided me with large business orders, but also gave me a push in Lincheng.

However, he also repaid the favor. Before, Liangshuijing Building Materials Group was in great risk, and Huang Yuanwei himself could not hold on to his position as boss.

At that time, they still couldn't find him, so Lin Zhe didn't waste any time and directly injected a large amount of funds through the group. While helping Huang Yuanwei solve the problem, he also gave him some orders.

Now, Liangshui Building Materials Group has not only not declined, but has reached a new level.

Of course, Huang Yuanwei did not disappoint Lin Zhe. He returned all the money he had supported him with interest. Moreover, if their Liangshui Building Materials Group now takes on the work of Zhetong Electric Power, they will only charge the cost price.

I have to say, this is a decent person and everything he does is decent.

……

In addition, there are pictures of the group appearing at the forefront of various natural disasters, as well as pictures of the group providing electricity to those remote mountain villages. I have to say that this museum is really good.

At least Lin Zhe himself was slowly remembering what he saw, which basically summarized Zhetong's appearance and journey from the beginning to now.

This may be a bit boring for other ordinary tourists, but it is very meaningful to every Zhetong person, so Lin Zhe thinks it is very good.

Moreover, a large open space has been reserved next to the museum, including a corridor and several rooms.

These will still be recorded and displayed in the future as Zhetong continues to develop.

After watching it for a while, Lin Zhe was quite satisfied.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Zhe planned to leave with Yan Xi.

However, when Lin Zhe arrived at the door, he was also shocked. There were so many people.

When we came, there were about a dozen people who came in to visit the museum, and there were also seven or eight old men playing chess and cards with Mr. Wang at the door. Now, there are so many people that you can't see the end of the crowd at a glance.

If you don’t know, you might think there’s a temple fair here or something.

……

After noticing the appearance of Lin Zhe and Yan Xi, the crowd also caused a commotion.

The people in the station were also very capable. They immediately organized order upon seeing the situation. In addition to the people in their station, the Shima Town officials also sent a lot of people to help, which managed to maintain order.

Fortunately, there were these people. Lin Zhe brought Yan Xi and greeted everyone with a smile. Then he stayed to take pictures of everyone for a while before coming to the parking lot and driving out under the protection of the people in the station.

This is a museum. Although it is the home of Zhetong Electric Power, it also has public attributes, so it doesn’t matter if other people come here.

But it should be better when we get to my old house and Mr. Wang’s house. After all, they are private places and there are not as many local people in the town as outsiders.

On the other side, Mr. Wang’s son also drove home in a hurry with a large box full of seafood. These were the best he could buy in the county.
