To control subordinates, both sticks and red dates are needed.

Li Jianxun patted Xu Damao on the shoulder and said:

"Xu Damao, you have worked hard during this period. I feel it is necessary to increase your burden."

Li Jianxun said this and turned to ask Li Huaide:

"Deputy Director Li, is there a vacant position for a team leader in the labor dispute team?"

Li Huaide stood up quickly, without thinking, and spoke directly:

"Yes, we are missing one."

"Okay, Xu Damao, starting tomorrow you will be the leader of the labor dispute team. You will have real supervisory power. Don't let your leaders down."

The jujube given by Li Jianxun really worked. It made Xu Damao's breathing heavier due to excitement.

His efforts during this period have paid off.

Xu Damao guaranteed on the spot:

"Chief Engineer Li, from now on I will shoot wherever you point your gun, and I will absolutely obey your instructions."

Shen Xiu'e on the side was also very happy and excited. She held Xu Damao's arm and shook it.

Who still looks down on her now?

She could already imagine the envious expressions on the faces of the women when she returned to the village.

Liu Haizhong, who came here at some point, was very jealous when he saw Xu Damao got promoted so easily, because he, who was obsessed with power, had not even been promoted yet.

"Chief Engineer Li, I can listen to you. I will do whatever you ask me to do. You can make me a team leader."

Li Jianxun looked at Liu Haizhong, who was pregnant and looked jealous, and smiled.

It is true that I am short of people, but I will not accept all cats and dogs. What is the point of accepting those that only eat and do no work?

"Liu Haizhong, if you work hard and perform well, I will ask Director Yang to promote you to be the workshop team leader."

Li Jianxun gave some encouragement casually, but Liu Haizhong took it seriously.

He hurried home to share the good news with his wife and children. He, Liu Haizhong, had a bright future.

When Xu Damao saw Liu Haizhong's useless appearance, he simply sneered.

You can't even tell the difference between good and bad words and yet you want to follow Li Jianxun. He doesn't want you to follow him.

At this time, more and more people came to the yard, and Xu Damao was too busy to handle it all, so he quickly asked people in the yard to come out and help.

Because Li Jianxun asked Xu Damao to notify them in advance, many people working in the hospital took leave today.

These people wanted, firstly, to help Li Jianxun and get closer to him, and secondly, to have enough time to have a good meal.

They couldn't even remember how long it had been since they had eaten meat.

As soon as Xu Damao shouted, everyone in the yard rushed out.

There was a group of people, young and old, male and female. Xu Damao simply assigned them tasks and they immediately took action.

The masters were responsible for setting up tables and chairs, moving things, and doing some physical work.

The women are responsible for washing dishes, wiping tables, setting out melon seeds, peanuts and white wine, and doing other delicate work.

I have to say that these women who usually take care of the household are really amazing, and they all work quickly and well.

Chapter 200: The Gift Stunned Everyone in the Siheyuan

An hour later, everything needed was ready and most of the guests had arrived.

It is no exaggeration to say that all the middle and lower-level leaders of the steel rolling mill came, even those team leaders who Li Jianxun had only met once or twice on weekdays came uninvited.

Li Huaide turned a blind eye and pretended he didn't see it.

Are you kidding? If he makes Li Jianxun unhappy at this time, Li Jianxun will make him unhappy for the rest of his life.

Not only that, he also volunteered to move tables and chairs to collect the gift money for Li Jianxun.

Xu Damao was also a smart guy, and he quickly went over to help.

"Team Leader Sun Zhiyuan, ten yuan as a gift~"

"Technician Li Xiong, ten yuan as a gift~"

"Deputy Section Chief Zhao Yuanzhan, twenty yuan for the gift~"

"Ma Jiankang, ten yuan as a gift~"

Whenever Xu Damao received a gift from someone, he would shout loudly and then hand the money to Li Huaide. After Li Huaide checked and made sure it was correct, he asked the accountant to write it down.

Yan Bugui and the people in the courtyard were a little confused when they heard that the least these people gave was ten yuan.

what's the situation?

How can we follow you if you do this?

Nowadays, a dollar or two is not a small amount, so why do all these people start with ten dollars?

Are you bidding here?

Yan Bugui held three dollars in his hand, but he didn't dare to take it out.

This time he was very generous. If it were someone else, he would have paid only one dollar at most and would have taken his whole family out for a meal.

He gritted his teeth and paid two dollars for the principal's son's wedding. Three dollars was already a huge expense for him.

Just because Li Jianxun was the chief engineer of the factory, Yan Bugui thought that he would be more casual with him so that he could ask Li Jianxun to find a job for Yan Jiecheng in the future.

These people started with ten dollars and immediately made him unable to do it.

Liu Haizhong could be more generous and take five dollars, but five dollars is not enough, as it is half of the minimum.

"Old Yan, what should we do?"

Liu Haizhong poked Yan Bugui next to him and asked in a low voice.

Old Man Liu, Sun Fugui and others on the side also looked a little embarrassed. They really didn't have much money, and even if they wanted to give more, they couldn't.

Yan Bugui pretended to be calm and said:

"Chief Engineer Li is not short of money. We can give as much as we want. It's enough as long as the intention is there. I guess Chief Engineer Li doesn't care about that."

Yan Bugui himself believed this.

Liu Haizhong remembered Li Jianxun’s “trust” and “encouragement” to him just now, took out two big black ten from his pocket and walked forward.

"Liu Haizhong, twenty yuan for the gift~"

"Security Section Chief Liu Chuang, fifty yuan for the gift~"

"Transportation Section Chief Fang Daming, fifty yuan as a gift~"

"Zhu Yucai, deputy director of the Logistics Department of the Ministry of Industry, a gift of 60 yuan~"

"Leader Xu Damao of the Labor Dispute Team, a gift of 100 yuan~"

I have to say, these people are really investing a lot of money.

People like Liu Chuang, Fang Daming and Zhu Yucai directly took out half of their monthly salary as gifts.

Xu Damao was even more ruthless and took out nearly two months' salary.

They all knew that with Li Jianxun's status, he had nothing to lack, and the best opportunity to show himself was now.

The sound of gifts coming from outside continued, and Qin Huairu's hands were shaking with excitement in the room.

Her eyes were fixed on the large bamboo basket, which was filled with money. She had never seen so much money in her life.

If she could just grab a handful, all the suffering would be solved.

I can live in a new house, buy new clothes, and purchase furniture...

Thinking of this, Qin Huairu glanced at Jia Dongxu on the bed, her eyes full of disdain, annoyance, and disgust...

Following this man, not only did she not enjoy any happiness, but he also dragged her down to this point. Her life was so miserable.

"Dongxu, how much money do you think should we give?"

Jia Dongxu was lying on the bed, greedily looking at the thick stack of gift money. When he heard Qin Huairu's question, he said unhappily:

"What do you mean by giving? Li Jianxun has received so much gift money, and he still needs a little bit from us?"

"If you ask me, not only can he not accept gifts from our family, but he should also support our family and send us some money."

"Our family is in such a difficult situation right now, and he and Xu Damao are the only two bastards in the entire hospital who have never donated money. Such selfish people will die a miserable death sooner or later."

Jia Dongxu is indeed the son of Jia Zhang. They are really cut from the same mold.

Qin Huairu sighed and advised:

"Dongxu, what if we don't give a gift and they won't let us eat at the banquet? I think we should give a little, even fifty cents or one dollar will do."

Jia Dongxu sat up straight, his face frowned, and he said loudly:

"He dares? If Li Jianxun doesn't call our family, I will crawl over and make trouble. I want to see if Li Jianxun finds it embarrassing, hum~"

"Please don't do that. Li Jianxun is not an ordinary person. Besides, I see all the leaders of the factory are here. If you go over and cause trouble, how can I still enter the factory?"

When Qin Huairu saw Jia Dongxu's face was not right, she immediately realized that she had said something wrong, and quickly changed her words:

"Of course it doesn't matter whether I go in or not. The key is that Banggeng and Xiaodang are still waiting for the feast. I just pretended to pass by and found that there were braised pig face, braised pork elbow, fried ribs, smoked chicken, roast duck..."

Qin Huairu said a few simple words and Banggeng and Xiaodang were so greedy that they drooled to the ground.

After saying this, Qin Huairu was still worried that Jia Dongxu would not agree, so she deliberately seduced the two children.

"Banggeng Xiaodang, do you want to have a feast?"

"Think about it, Mom, I want to have a feast. I want to eat braised pig's face, roast duck, and pork elbow with sauce......"

"Mom, Xiaodang wants to eat too. Xiaodang wants to eat fried spare ribs and smoked chicken..."

In this day and age, where can you find such a sumptuous banquet?

When an ordinary family holds a big banquet, it is considered good to have two meat dishes: pork belly and pork offal, and the amount of meat per table is limited.

Li Jianxun knew that setting up a banquet in a courtyard house could not be the same as setting up a banquet in a large compound, as most of the people here had never seen the world and did not eat much meat.

So Li Jianxun specially arranged for all of it to be meat, since it came from the flat earth anyway and it didn’t cost any money.

He wanted these people to not only eat until they were full and nauseous, but also have something to take when they left.

"Okay then, you go and donate 50 cents, but you are not allowed to donate more."

"When we have dinner later, you can put the stalks aside and eat them first, then bring me four or five bowls of meat. When we are almost done, you can quickly bring back some more meat. It should be enough for our family to eat for at least ten days."

"Mom will be back in a few days. She must be hungry in there. Let her have a good meal when she comes back. Do you hear me?"

Jia Dongxu warned Qin Huairu, fearing that she might not take advantage of him enough.

"Oh, I'll do as you say."

After saying that, Qin Huairu took out fifty cents and went out.

"Qin Huairu, fifty cents for the gift~"

When Xu Damao saw that it was Qin Huairu who came to give a gift, and it was fifty cents, he shouted even louder and everyone in the hospital heard it.

"Who is this? Why is he just giving away fifty cents?"

"Who knows? Giving Chief Engineer Li fifty cents is like slapping him in the face, isn't it?"

"It doesn't look like this woman is from our factory. She must be a resident of the compound. If she is a poor family, then it's not unreasonable to give her 50 cents."

For a moment, everyone in the courtyard was talking about it, and some people were even pointing fingers.

In a short while, the discussions became louder and louder.

Qin Huairu stood there awkwardly, neither knowing whether to leave nor walk, her ears turning red.

Chapter 201 Li Jianxun, a potential leader

Just when Qin Huairu was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do, Li Huaide's old problem came back.

He stood up with a "righteous" attitude, waved his hand, and spoke to help Qin Huairu out of the siege:
