Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things.

That night.

Many people in the courtyard tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

The three uncles were all caught in one go. This yard... is going to change.

Chapter 165 Minister Lin

Steel rolling mill.

Factory director's office.

"Minister Lin, what are you thinking? They framed you so much, and you just let them go?" Li Xinmin said in disbelief.

If it were him, he would either send them to target practice or make them spend the rest of their lives in jail.

"Xiao Lin, don't worry." Yang Weiguo also said in a deep voice.

"Director, this is what I think." Lin Shaowen sat upright on the sofa and said seriously, "Although Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong are hateful, they are both the backbone of the workers, especially Yi Zhonghai. It is very rare to be an eighth-level fitter..."

"This is not the same thing." Yang Weiguo said coldly, "Bad elements like this should be arrested and sent to labor camps."

"Yes, send him to labor camp." Li Xinmin also echoed.

"Director, how many level eight fitters are there in our factory?" Lin Shaowen asked softly.

"There are a total of sixteen level eight fitters." Yang Weiguo reported the data accurately.

"There are only 16 eighth-level fitters in a factory with tens of thousands of people. You can imagine how difficult it is to train them." Lin Shaowen said seriously, "I can't lose the backbone of the factory because of personal grudges. It doesn't matter if I suffer a little personal grievance."

"Okay, good point."

Suddenly there was a burst of cheers from outside the door, and Yang Weiguo and Li Xinmin stood up immediately.

"Minister, why are you here?"

"I heard that Comrade Lin Shaowen was falsely accused. I came to see how the factory handled it." Bi Yanjun laughed heartily. "What I didn't expect was that Comrade Lin Shaowen, at such a young age, was so wise and righteous."

Yang Weiguo and Li Xinmin were shocked and looked at Lin Shaowen who was standing beside them with a smile on his face, and they suddenly realized what was going on.

No wonder this kid is so confident. With the department looking after him, even if this matter is implemented, it will not have any impact on Lin Shaowen, right?

"Comrade Lin Shaowen, I have to learn from you." Gu Yanbing sighed, "Although I am a few years older than you, I am still not as good as you in terms of party spirit. Oh, right... you haven't joined the party yet, right?"

"I joined the party when I was in college. My recommender was Dean Qin Zhong." Lin Shaowen chuckled.

"Okay, okay, okay."

The more Bi Yanjun looked at Lin Shaowen, the more he liked him.

In the past, it was the elders’ love for the younger generation, but now it is the superiors’ love for their subordinates. It is good to take revenge, but subordinates who can consider the overall situation and the organization are more loved by leaders.

"Minister, what brings you here for?" Yang Weiguo said with a smile.

"We held a meeting yesterday to discuss the qualifications of young cadres..." Bi Yanjun said seriously, "Times are different now, and there is a lot to be done. We cannot judge whether a cadre is capable based on his or her qualifications, so we plan to promote young cadres."

"The young cadres promoted this time will be selected from among the advanced individuals who have won the annual 'Youth Model' title, so that they can take on heavier responsibilities."

After saying this, Yang Weiguo and Li Xinmin were dumbfounded.

A deputy director-level cadre in his twenties? This is too ridiculous.

Although Lin Shaowen, the deputy director, has a nice title, he is actually no different from a section chief, and is still at the section level. But it is different when he becomes a director. Although the deputy director level is not considered a senior cadre, he still has a lot of say in the factory.

In other words, if Lin Shaowen became a ministerial-level cadre, Yang Weiguo would give up all his rights in the medical department.

"I think I still need some exercise." Lin Shaowen said hurriedly.

"Before you came, I was still considering whether you could be the head of a department. But after hearing what you said just now, I think you can manage a department independently." Bi Yanjun said seriously, "This is also in line with our factory's requirements for the training of young cadres."

"I agree." Li Xinmin said hurriedly.

"I agree too." Yang Weiguo said unwillingly, "It's almost the end of the year, and we're about to hold a general meeting. Why not get things done before the New Year?"

"It depends on your factory's arrangements." Bi Yanjun said calmly.

"It's almost noon, let's have lunch together, Minister," Yang Weiguo invited.

"Next time." Bi Yanjun declined with a smile.

"The minister still has to inspect other factories." Gu Yanbing said softly.

"Okay, then next time." Yang Weiguo said happily.

After a few people sent Bi Yanjun to the car, they returned to the office.

"Old Li, draft a punishment notice for Yi Zhonghai and fine him half a year's salary." Yang Weiguo said with a smile, "Of course, we can't let our Minister Lin suffer any injustice, so give him some bonus."

"I'll do it right away." Li Xinmin agreed and turned away.

Yang Weiguo looked at Lin Shaowen with complicated eyes and sighed, "You have only been in the factory for less than a year, and you have already joined the factory committee."

"I will always support you, at any time." Lin Shaowen said softly.

Yang Weiguo was slightly startled, glanced at Li Xinmin who had just left the office, and couldn't help grinning.

Steel rolling mill.

"The following is a notice: Yi Zhonghai, a fitter in Workshop 1, and Liu Haizhong, a forger in Workshop 7, made groundless accusations against their superiors and should have been fired. However, Minister Lin understood the greater good and interceded for them. Now the factory has given them a lighter sentence."

"I hereby punish Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong by deducting their salary for half a year and making them clean public toilets for half a month. I hope all comrades will take this as a warning."

When this notice was issued, the entire steel mill was in an uproar.

"Is Yi Zhonghai getting old and confused? How dare he falsely accuse Minister Lin?"

"Who says it's not true? Minister Lin is such a good person."

"I'm going to scold these two old fools to death next time I see them."

Everyone was talking about it.

"Next, we will play another notice, which is about the policy of 'vigorously promoting young cadres' that is being publicized by the superiors. We hope that outstanding comrades will take on heavier responsibilities. Since Comrade Lin Shaowen joined the factory, he has been deeply loved and supported by the workers. He is conscientious in his work and is deeply loved by the masses."

"Hereby, the factory committee decides to promote Comrade Lin Shaowen to the position of Director of the Medical Department, who will be in charge of all matters of the Medical Department..."

Infirmary.

"Minister Lin, you got promoted again?" Li Chunhua looked shocked.

"Yeah." Lin Shaowen nodded with a wry smile.

"Deputy division level, this really makes him a leading cadre." Someone sighed.

"Your promotion is like riding a rocket, it's too fast." Li Chunhua looked at Lin Shaowen with complicated eyes and said, "My dead man is over 40 years old and is only at the same level as you."

"Sister, stop laughing at me." Lin Shaowen begged for mercy.

canteen.

Sha Zhu was cooking absentmindedly. When he heard that Lin Shaowen had been promoted again, he couldn't help feeling upset.

Why does this guy get all the good things?

Propaganda Department.

Xu Damao was also gritting his teeth in hatred. If this continued, he would not be surprised if Lin Shaowen became the factory director one day.

workshop.

Jia Dongxu also seemed to have lost his soul. He couldn't understand why Lin Shaowen, who had done so many bad things, was still so favored by the leaders.

Is it possible that only bad people have a way out these days?

Chapter 166 Hello, Minister Lin

Siheyuan.

As soon as Lin Shaowen entered the door, he saw a group of people standing at the door, comforting three crying aunts.

When they saw Lin Shaowen coming, they immediately left them and went to meet him.

"Hello, Minister Lin."

"Minister Lin, are you still short of people in your infirmary? My daughter might be employed by you. Can she be a temporary worker?"

"Minister Lin, do you think I can be your assistant?"

……

Everyone was either trying to please or flatter him.

"Stop it." Lin Shaowen said with a wry smile, "Although I've been promoted, the infirmary is still managed by the factory director. If he doesn't ask, how can I dare to recruit people?"

"Aren't you in charge of all matters of the Medical Department?" Xu Damao asked puzzledly.

"Old Xu, just listen to what I have to say." Lin Shaowen said earnestly, "How old am I? If the factory director really hands over the medical department to me, will he be at ease?"

"That's true." Xu Damao nodded.

A film that is so long that only takes twenty years to complete, this is too much.

"Then isn't it the same as if you didn't get a promotion?" Sha Zhu pouted.

"That's right." Lin Shaowen shrugged.

"That's not right. Then your salary should be adjusted, right?" Xu Damao asked in surprise.

Lin Shaowen did not answer directly, but just smiled bitterly and shook his head.

His current salary has been adjusted to level 12, which is 172.5 yuan a month. If they were to tell others about it, they would be scared to death.

"How much does the deputy director earn?" someone asked curiously.

"Generally speaking, it's level 13, one hundred and fifty-five dollars and fifty-five cents." Xu Damao said in a deep voice.

"hiss!"

Everyone looked at Lin Shaowen, their eyes filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.

How can a couple of people spend all this money?

"Minister Lin, my husband..." an old lady came forward.

"Everyone must testify to this. I went to the factory director and said something good to them." Lin Shaowen said loudly, "And I also let the factory director know about the elementary school. Don't accuse me of being unfair when the time comes."

"I can testify to this. Lin Shaowen did have the factory speak up for him." Xu Damao patted his chest and said, "Otherwise, for what these three uncles did, they would have to go to jail."

In fact, this statement is a bit exaggerated.

You will definitely lose your job, but as for going to jail, that's unlikely. You will probably be released after one or two months of reeducation through labor.

Of course, if Liu Haizhong had been a little more restrained and not called the joint defense office and the security department of the steel rolling mill, it would have been enough to just sweep the streets for a few days in accordance with the nature of the street office.

"Minister Lin, thank you." The aunt said gratefully.

"No need to thank me. Just tell Lao Yi to be careful next time. The factory leaders are not as easy to talk to as me." Lin Shaowen said with a smile.

"I bother!"

The three aunts spat in their hearts at the same time, but smiled on their faces.

This guy is a ruthless person.

Everyone is chatting.

Suddenly, Lou Xiao'e came out with Qin Kan and Qin Jingru.

"Brother, I've been waiting for you for a long time. It seems you are chatting here." Qin Kan said with a smile.

"Look at my memory." Lin Shaowen held his forehead and said, "Jingru, can you go back today? I forgot about this."

"It's okay. You're busy with work." Qin Kan pointed at Qin Jingru and said with a wry smile, "Why did you buy her such a dress? She's a country girl. How can she be so lucky as to wear such a dress?"

After hearing what Qin Kan said, everyone looked at Qin Jingru.

The whole yard was suddenly filled with gasps of shock, and several young men were eager to get closer to take a look.

How can she still be that country girl? Even the eldest daughter of a capitalist family can’t compare to her, right?

Qin Jingru looked at everyone's envious eyes and lowered her head shyly.

"Brother, you are wronging me." Lin Shaowen waved his hand and said, "This was bought by her sister-in-law. I work every day, so I don't have the time."

"But this..." Qin Kan hesitated to speak.
