Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

Zhou Chi couldn't help but interrupt him: "Yang Chong, do you think anyone will believe you? You bought these things from illegal sources, and in such a large amount, how could they, as the leaders in charge, not know about it?"

Yes, the buyer bought such a large amount of supplies, and it was directly related to the stomachs of all the people in the factory. As the factory director and the supervisor, it is impossible for him not to know about it and not ask about it.

But Yang Chong smiled faintly: "Deputy Section Chief Zhou, I think you may have made a mistake."

Zhou Chi was stunned: "What did I get wrong? Didn't you just admit that you bought all these things? And everyone in the factory knows about it. Even everyone knows that Yang Zhihua has raised your salary by two levels because of this, and he is also going to promote you to deputy section chief of the purchasing department. Is this true?"

Yang Chong smiled and said, "I said that your mistake is not this, but the source of these grains and pork. You keep saying that these things are not from a legitimate source, which is a violation of discipline and national policy. Do you have any basis? What is the basis for saying that the source of my grain and pork is not legitimate?"

Zhou Chi was speechless for a moment, his face flushed: "This... this..."

At this time, Li Huaide said, "Xiao Yang, you are wrong. To prove whether these things come from legitimate sources, you should not ask him to produce evidence of illegitimate sources, but you should produce evidence of legitimate sources."

Zhou Chi said quickly: "Yes, yes, you should take out the documents. Can you take them out?"

Yang Chong smiled faintly: "You should have said it earlier, I have it."

Everyone was stunned, with surprise and doubt on their faces. They looked at each other, wondering if they had heard it wrong.

The big boss was also stunned: "Young man, what did you say? You said you can produce the documents?"

Zhou Chi blurted out: "He's talking nonsense! The department didn't even transfer anything to the factory, how could he have the necessary procedures to buy it!"

The big boss glared at him, then asked Yang Chong: "Young man, can you really produce the documents? Then why are you still standing there? Take them out and let us see them."

Yes, if you have it, take it out quickly.

Yang Chong readily took out a few pieces of paper from his pocket and handed them over with both hands.

The people in the department quickly took it and handed it over to the top leader.

The big boss took a few glances and a look of joy appeared on his face: "Good, good!"

Because he was shocked to see that the papers Yang Chong handed over were exactly the grain delivery orders specially approved by the state grain depot, and the bright red official seal on them was unquestionable.

When the other people saw the boss's expression, they all quickly gathered around.

After seeing the payroll receipt carefully, everyone's face was filled with shock.

Hou Liqiu and Director Yang's faces were filled with surprise.

Yang Chong continued, "Dear leaders, this is the grain delivery order from the National Grain Depot. Is there any problem with the procedure?"

The leader nodded repeatedly: "No problem, no problem! If anyone says that the source of this food is not legitimate, I will slap him in the face!"

As he said this, he glanced at Zhou Chi coldly.

Zhou Chi was stunned: "Is this impossible? How could he, a small purchaser, buy so much grain directly from the national grain depot? This is impossible."

But no one wanted to listen to him anymore. These days, being able to get food is a skill in itself. Everyone hopes that the ministry or their own factory can produce such a person. Who cares whether it is possible or not?

Yang Chong went on to say, "As for the pork, everyone in the factory knows that the pork I supplied to the factory was not bought from a state-owned butcher shop or a meat processing plant, but from wild boars I hunted in the mountains."

"Oh? Wild boar?" The leaders were shocked. Liu Feng quickly walked over, checked it, and nodded: "Big leader, he didn't lie. This pork is indeed not from domestic pigs, but wild boars. Wild boar meat is firmer than domestic pigs, and the color is darker red. I have seen it before, and it is exactly the same as this."

The big boss nodded, smiling even more: "Since it is a wild boar that we hunted in the mountains, what other procedures are needed? Young man, you are amazing. You can actually hunt wild boars for the factory. No wonder the workers in your factory are so full of food and so energetic." Then he turned to Liu Feng and several other factory managers and said: "If you can find a young man like this in the factory, why do you have to chase me and cry for food all day long?"

Hou Likui said without losing any time, "Boss, Yang Chong was not a worker in our factory at first. I met him in the car and knew that he had hunting skills and could kill wild boars in the mountains. So I reported it to our factory director Yang, who thought he was a talent and decided to recruit him into our factory. To be honest, he was not very willing to join the factory at that time. He felt that he had no freedom in the factory and it would be more comfortable for him to go hunting in the mountains."

"Oh? Then how did you convince them?" The big boss listened with great interest.

Director Yang himself went on to say, "Big boss, in order to convince them, I finally gritted my teeth and spent a lot of money to give them two quotas to work in the factory. I recruited both of them and only then did they agree."

Before the big boss even opened his mouth to speak, Liu Feng said, "Two places? You call that a loss? If nothing else, just because they gave you these big fat pigs, I'd be willing to give you four places, not to mention two places! So, if you think it's a loss, how about I give you five places in exchange for this treasure?"

Chapter 104 The Background is Big

Everyone present burst into good-natured laughter.

Yes, for talents who can provide flour, rice and pork to all the employees in the factory, let them eat pork, let alone two places, four, five, or even ten places, I guess they would exchange without hesitation.

Only Director Yang and Hou Liqiu knew that when they made this decision, they took a huge risk and made a gamble.

And now, the gamble has clearly paid off.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became full of spring, and everyone looked at Yang Chong with a smile on their faces, their eyes full of admiration and envy.

I kept thinking, why have I never met such a talented person?

Director Yang and Hou Liqiu's faces were filled with pride and honor, because they had become the mentor that everyone envied.

The big leader nodded and said, "You did the right thing. When you meet such a talent, you must find a way to keep him no matter what the cost. Because the price you pay is far from being comparable to the benefits he brings to you." He looked around and said, "Comrades, the country is now in a very difficult and special period. The difficult material conditions are far from guaranteeing our normal production. At this time, we need to do everything we can to guarantee production. Sometimes we should not be too rigid about those rules. In a word, everything is for production and revolution. As long as it can bring benefits to our factory, what's wrong with breaking some rules?"

The applause was thunderous, and the enthusiastic applause from the factory managers said it all.

Director Yang and Hou Liqiu looked at each other, and there was pride in each other's eyes.

After the big leader finished speaking, he turned and looked at Zhou Chi who was already standing there in a daze: "Comrade, do you have anything else to report?"

Zhou Chi didn't dare to say anything at this time. He instinctively looked towards Li Huaide's position, wanting to see what instructions his brother-in-law would give him.

But when he looked over, he found that Li Huaide had disappeared long ago.

My brother-in-law harmed me… Zhou Chi thought with a pale face.

After Yang Chong took out the grain delivery receipts just now, Li Huaide realized that the situation was no longer under his control, so he quietly left while no one was paying attention.

Back in his office, Li Huaide smashed a cup in frustration. He knew that Yang Zhihua had the last laugh again.

Fortunately, he had a backup plan and did not report it himself, but instead sent Zhou Chi as his vanguard.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to leave even if I wanted to.

But even so, Yang Zhihua must be very clear that he is the mastermind behind today's incident, and he must be on guard against himself in the future.

It is not easy to seize power and usurp the throne again.

Li Huaide smoked two cigarettes in silence and summed up the lessons of his failure today.

It’s not that I’m too impulsive, but that the enemy is too cunning.

Especially this Yang Chong, who deliberately left such a big "flaw" so that himself would think he had an opportunity to take advantage of, but it turned out to be a trap set by others to lure him into it.

It seems that I was too careless and underestimated Yang Chong.

This guy actually has connections with the national grain depot. Now that Yang Zhihua has him, it will be difficult for me to make a comeback.

How to do?

Li Huaide thought about it again and again.

When he got home from get off work in the evening, his wife Zhou Furong stopped him at the door as soon as he entered: "Li Huaide, tell me, why did you bully my Xiao Chi today?"

No need to ask, it must be that Zhou Chi made a fool of himself today and came home to complain.

Li Huaide quickly smiled and said, "Wife, how can you say that? Xiao Chi is your brother, he is my brother-in-law, how could I bully him?"

Zhou Furong glared at him: "Xiao Chi told me that you set a trap for him in the factory and caused him to offend the factory director. His life in the factory will definitely be difficult in the future."

Li Huaide said: "Misunderstanding, this is all misunderstanding! Wife, think about it, Xiao Chi is my brother-in-law, he is my closest direct descendant in the factory, I can harm anyone but him, right?"

Zhou Furong said, "Humph, if you have the guts, please tell me what happened today?"

Li Huaide shook his head helplessly and said, "Alas, wife, today was a mistake on my part. I underestimated the enemy. I thought it was a golden opportunity to bring down Yang Zhihua, but who knew this guy had a hidden trick up his sleeve and played a trick on me."

Then he recounted what happened today, and finally said: "I know Xiao Chi feels wronged, but there is nothing I can do. I didn't expect this kid to have such a powerful way. Fortunately, I didn't jump out, otherwise I would be the one who embarrassed the adults today, and maybe one day I will be squeezed out of the steel mill."

Zhou Furong glared and said, "Then you'll sacrifice Xiao Chi?"

Li Huaide said quickly, "My dear wife, isn't this just a temporary solution? As the saying goes, if you keep the green mountains, you won't have to worry about firewood. As long as you save me, why worry about Xiao Chi having no food to eat? If I am involved and Yang Zhihua squeezes me out, then even if Xiao Chi is saved today, with his little weight, can he still stand firm in the steel mill?"

Zhou Furong thought about it and it made sense: "But now Xiao Chi said that he lost his master today and offended the factory director. How can he go to work in the future?"

Li Huaide said, "What's the big deal? He should go to work. Xiao Chi's report is in line with organizational procedures, and Yang Zhihua doesn't dare to do anything to him openly. As long as I'm here, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Zhou Furong snorted, "How many times have you said this? What's the result? Last time you said it was a foregone conclusion that Xiao Chi would be the section chief, but what's the result? The section chief became that guy surnamed Hou, and our Xiao Chi is still standing still!"

Li Huaide said awkwardly: "Isn't this all because of this Yang Chong? If he hadn't gotten the pork for Hou Likui, the position of section chief would have been Xiao Chi's long ago."

Zhou Furong asked, "Who on earth is this Yang Chong? Why does he keep ruining our family's good fortunes?"

Li Huaide frowned and said, "I am a little confused about this person now. He seemed very inconspicuous before, just a young man in his early twenties with no background. But now I see something wrong. This guy actually has a connection with the national grain depot. He managed to get the grain that the ministry couldn't get."

Zhou Furong said, "Now that Yang Zhihua has this helper, won't it be even harder for you to get rid of him?"

Li Huaide said: "I have been thinking about this problem all day. This guy has a strong background. Who knows what big shot is hiding behind him. It may not be so easy for me to drive him away. It is better to..."

"Worse than what?" Zhou Furong asked curiously.

"It would be better to turn the enemy into a friend, establish a good relationship with him, dig him over from Yang Zhihua's side, and let me do things for him. Then wouldn't my chances of winning be greater?"

Chapter 105 Promoted to Section Chief

Yang Chong never imagined that today's confrontation would make Li Huaide change his mind and plan to recruit him.

As soon as the department leaders and leaders of other factories left, Yang Zhihua directly convened a meeting of middle-level cadres, and even specially invited Yang Chong to attend.

The meeting had only one theme, which was to commend and reward Yang Chong for his contribution to the steel mill.

Director Yang's original plan was to raise Yang Chong's salary by two levels and promote him to the position of deputy section chief.

But now he has changed his mind.

What? Raise two levels? Just raise it three levels!

Why do you need a deputy section chief? Just be the section chief of the purchasing section!

With his great abilities, it would be unjust not to let him be the section chief.

As for the former head of the purchasing department, Liu Laoben, he was directly promoted to be the head of the logistics department at the next level.

The former head of the logistics department, Hou Liqiu, was promoted to the director of the factory office and joined the leadership team of the factory party committee.

Director Yang's proposal was unanimously approved at the meeting, because Yang Chong's contribution to the factory was obvious to all. Although his steps as purchasing chief were a bit big, he was definitely the popular choice.

As for the promotion of Liu Laoben and Hou Liqiu, on the surface it was a chain reaction caused by Yang Chong's promotion.

But in fact, everyone can see that this is Director Yang expanding his own direct lineage, because Liu Laoben and Hou Liqiu are both his direct men.

Deputy Factory Director Li Huaide also broke with his usual attitude and did not express any objections.

Everyone knew the reason. Zhou Chi's attack not only failed to achieve any effect, but also put Li Huaide into a more passive position.

Faced with Director Yang's expansion, he could only choose to swallow his anger temporarily.

After all, it’s good enough to be able to save Zhou Chi now.

Of course, these three appointments still need to be submitted to the ministry and can only be announced and take effect after approval by the ministry.

But everyone knows that it is just a procedure, or it is just a matter of time.

It can be said that Yang Chong is the youngest and fastest promoted section-level cadre in the history of the steel rolling mill.

When he returned to the department, colleagues who had heard the news came to congratulate him. If someone else had been the department head, they might have felt unbalanced and jealous.

But Yang Chong's contribution is obvious to all, and everyone is convinced.

What's more, they also benefited from Yang Chong's performance, making their work a lot easier.

In the past, the purchasing department was criticized by leaders at meetings every day, but now it is on the praise list every day.

Not only the purchasing department, almost all the employees in the factory now know Yang Chong.

As soon as he reached the factory gate, the security staff came out and greeted him: "Chief Yang, are you going out?"

Yang Chong was a little embarrassed: "Don't make a fuss, what's the point of being a section chief? It's not a section chief yet."

Everyone laughed and said, "It's only a matter of time. Section Chief Yang has to be invited to be our guest!"

Yang Chong waved his hand: "Sure, sure."

As he said this, he walked out of the factory gate and prepared to go to Chen Xueru's cloth shop to see how the clothes were selling.

At this time, a jeep that had been parked at the factory gate suddenly opened its door and a man jumped out of the car: "Xiao Yang, you finally came out, I've been waiting for you for so long!"

Yang Chong was stunned for a moment and felt that this person looked familiar.

The other party quickly said: "Did you forget? We just met in the cafeteria warehouse."

Yang Chong then remembered that he seemed to have seen this person among the leaders who visited.
