The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 50 Settlement
The upper echelons acted very quickly. Within two days, someone came to the steel mill to announce the organization's decision. Li Huaide was officially promoted to the director of the Red Star Steel Mill.

As for Director Yang, because his work performance was not outstanding and he had made some mistakes, such as firing someone, he was transferred to another machinery factory to be the director.

But this factory is in Baoding, the hometown of donkey firewood. Although it is called a lateral transfer, it is actually no different from a demotion. After all, one is in Beijing and the other is in the suburbs of Beijing. Everyone knows where there is more future.

Director Yang didn't waste any time. After the handover, he packed up and left. As a loser, he had to have the minimum pride and accept defeat.

Li Huaide went to visit his hero in person, and handed over the reward left by Director Yang to Liu Hua, including five hundred yuan and a lot of bills.

Liu Hua became rich suddenly, and he never dreamed that Li Huaide would even ask for benefits on his behalf.

"This is just part of it." Li Huaide said with a smile: "We agreed at the beginning that in addition to the monetary reward, we also said that we would give you two or three more levels, or give you a higher position, but that will have to wait until the oil extraction machine test is successful."

Liu Hua nodded: "Do I have to go on a business trip? When I go to Daqing, I have to see with my own eyes how the oil extraction machine works, otherwise I won't know how to modify it."

Li Huaide smiled and said, "No need. The people in the oil system are more professional than us in the design of oil production equipment. The rest of the improvements can be done by them. My most important task now is to strive for some parts to be produced by our factory."

Liu Hua went to the workshop to perform routine maintenance on the machine tools. At this time, the loudspeaker sounded, announcing the news that Li Huaide had officially taken office as factory director.

Yi Zhonghai was not far from Liu Hua at the time. When he heard the broadcast, he lost his mind.

He never expected that Li Huaide would rise to fame overnight.

Liu Hua happened to pass by him, so he called out to Liu Hua: "Director Li is the director now, but where is Director Yang?"

Liu Hua smiled and said, "He continues to be the factory director, but it seems he has been transferred to Baoding."

Yi Zhonghai was still somewhat shrewd. After being distracted for a moment, he immediately returned to normal. He was still confident. Although his so-called backer was gone, he was not afraid. After all, he was still an eighth-level fitter. How many eighth-level fitters were there in the whole country?

He is rare, and wherever he goes, he is the backbone of the factory production and the treasure protected by the factory leaders. Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai straightened his chest again, and he felt that he was fine again.

After dinner that night, Yi Zhonghai slowly walked into the deaf old lady's room. The old lady had just finished her meal and was in a daze doing nothing.

"Old lady." Yi Zhonghai called softly, "Are you going to sleep?"

The old lady slowly opened her eyes: "Zhong Hai, what's wrong?"

"Something big happened in the factory today." Yi Zhonghai said seriously, "Li Huaide has officially become the factory director."

"What about Xiao Yang?"

"I asked Liu Hua, and he said he was transferred to Baoding to be the factory director."

The deaf old lady sighed: "Ah, now there is one less person who can be used."

"Old lady, what is your relationship with Director Yang?"

Yi Zhonghai was very puzzled. The old lady had helped him several times before, and it was always Director Yang who stepped forward. It seemed that Director Yang would always grant the old lady's requests.

The old lady shook her head: "You don't need to know about this. Just go, I'll take whatever friendship we have into my coffin." Yi Zhonghai said nothing more and stood up: "I'm just telling you, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

The deaf old lady nodded and said, "Zhong Hai, your apprentice is dead, and Director Yang is gone too. Don't be too busy in the factory or in the yard. If anything goes wrong, I won't be able to help you."

Yi Zhonghai pretended to have forgotten about Jia Dongxu's matter these days, but when the old lady mentioned it, he suddenly felt heartbroken. That was the disciple he had supported with all his money, and he had been counting on him to take care of him in his old age and see him to the end of his life. He didn't expect that the old man would have to see his young son die. How painful it was.

"Old lady, you are poking my heart." Yi Zhonghai said sadly: "You have me to take care of you in your old age, who will I find to take care of me in the future?"

"Look for Silly Pillar."

Although Sha Zhu has always been Yi Zhonghai's backup elderly care provider, to be honest, Yi Zhonghai doesn't think highly of him, so he has never supported Sha Zhu.

He felt that Sha Zhu was an irritable, impulsive person with an inexplicable self-confidence, and was difficult to control. Most importantly, he still had a father in Baoding. Although he had been gone for many years, it did not mean that he would not come back in the future.

The deaf old lady saw Yi Zhonghai's concerns and said, "Oh, you think Sha Zhu is unreliable, but in fact, there is no one more reliable than him in this yard."

"I haven't helped him much so far. I'm not close to him."

The deaf old lady smiled and said, "Shazhu doesn't need your help. You just need to pay more attention to him and ask about his well-being. He lost his mother when he was young, and then his father ran away. He needs someone to care for him."

Yi Zhonghai said unwillingly: "But he can't even take care of himself, how can he provide for me in the future?"

"Then why don't you just find someone who can take care of you and make him your wife?"

Yi Zhonghai nodded: "Then I'll go back and think about it carefully."

After returning home, Yi Zhonghai frowned and said to his wife who was busy at work, "My dear, from now on, you should help Shazhu more and care about him. We can only rely on him in the future."

The aunt looked at the decadent Yi Zhonghai and nodded silently. She has always been the one who follows her husband's lead, and she has always been closer to Sha Zhu, feeling that this simple and honest child is like her own child.

Liu Hua went to the ghost market again that night and got two jars of tiger bone wine and a recipe for making the wine as he wished. He also gave two hundred yuan and a letter of introduction for a job.

I didn't see anything good at the stalls of those old folks, but I said hello anyway. There were no good things now, probably because they were reluctant to sell them, but in a few years, they would have to sell them even if they were reluctant, and they would be very cheap.

If you become familiar with them now, you may become their life-saving straw in the future.

Li Huaide, who officially became the factory director, began to make great efforts in the factory and worked hard to make his first move after taking office.

When talking with his father-in-law that night, his father-in-law emphasized one point to him, which was the safety production issue he was carrying out.

When launching this project, Li Huaide only regarded it as a small step for his promotion, but after some guidance from his father-in-law.

Li Huaide suddenly realized that this was not a small step, but a milestone. If it was done well, he, Li Huaide, would also be able to make a significant contribution to the history of the country's industrial development.
