Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things.

"Did you hear that?" Lin Shaowen shouted.

"Hear it."

Everyone trembled.

"In three minutes, tell me how long it will take to make the machine tool."

After saying this, Lin Shaowen sat down next to the recorder and flipped through the meeting minutes.

"quick……"

Wei Dajun shouted loudly, and everyone gathered together and began to look through the machine tool catalog.

Lin Shaowen rolled his eyes while reading the meeting minutes. These bastards actually spent two-thirds of their time in meetings, 0.5 thirds of their time making models, and the rest of their time doubting the correctness of his drawings.

Before he finished smoking a cigarette, he turned around and looked at Wei Dajun and others.

"time up."

"Director..."

"Just tell me how long it'll take."

Lin Shaowen stood up and stood in front of Wei Dajun.

That tall figure made many people subconsciously avoid his gaze.

"Five days." Wei Dajun gritted his teeth.

"Too long." Lin Shaowen shook his head and said, "I will give you three workshops to fully produce and research, and senior workers will be supplied to you first. Please give me some more time..."

Wei Dajun turned his head to discuss with Wu Shouyi and others, then turned back and said, "Three days."

"Okay, I want to see the machine tool in three days." Lin Shaowen pointed at him and looked at Wu Shouyi, "Engineer Wu, I'll give you six days. I want to see the engine of the feed machine..."

"Director."

Wu Shouyi had sweat on his forehead.

"If I can't see you, you can retire." Lin Shaowen said lightly, "I will try my best to get you a salary. It will be good for you to take care of the grandchildren at home."

"Lin Shaowen, you dare..."

Wu Shouyi flew into a rage and slammed the table.

"Li Xinmin is not the only one who dares to act recklessly in the steel mill."

Lin Shaowen's words made everyone take a step back in fear.

Li Xinmin had a bad reputation in the factory, and many people had reported it to the department, but the department turned a deaf ear to it and even told them not to cause trouble. This attitude made them all know that Li Xinmin had a powerful background.

So they could only hold back and dared not confront Li Xinmin head-on.

As for Lin Shaowen, that is another extreme.

He must have a powerful background, otherwise he would be a deputy director-level cadre at this age, unless his ancestors were very powerful. But Lin Shaowen was much easier to talk to than Li Xinmin. Although he seemed to be doing something reckless, he was actually doing serious things.

So no one was afraid of him.

But now that this sentence has been said, everyone understands.

This smiling guy in front of me can decide life and death with just one word.

Retirement is seen as a great thing in the future, but now... it is not a good thing. There is a pension, but it is definitely not as much as it is now, and senior intellectuals all have ideals and ambitions.

They also want to contribute to the construction of the motherland, so letting Wu Shouyi retire is tantamount to giving him a ruthless blow.

"Mr. Wu, if you don't have confidence, you can write a retirement report and I will sign it." Lin Shaowen said with a smile.

"I can do it." Wu Shouyi said word by word.

"Very good, if you can do it, I will apply for a reward for you."

Lin Shaowen left after saying this.

Wu Shouyi's eyes were slightly red. While gathering people, he said to Wei Dajun fiercely, "Director Wei, I want to see the machine tool within three days, otherwise...you should retire too."

"My day."

Wei Dajun was in a bad state.

You offended Director Lin, it has nothing to do with me. Are you going to drag me to death with you?

He is only in his early forties, and retiring at this time...it would be better for him to just die.

Chapter 358 Our Li family has good physical strength

New area of ​​steel rolling mill.

This was the name given by Lin Shaowen. He leaned against a big tree, ignoring the resentful looks of many workers, and smoked silently.

He was actually helpless too.

Each factory has a quota for engineers. It doesn't mean that you can get a salary just by recruiting them. After all, engineers are scarce talents now, and every factory wants them, so the department has set a quota for salaries.

For example, if a steel rolling mill only provides salary for fifteen engineers, then you can only recruit fifteen engineers.

You want to recruit more people, but the department won't approve their salaries. If you say you can squeeze out money from other places to pay your own salaries, it's not impossible, but... the department won't recognize the number of engineers you reported, and neither the salary nor the level are on record in the department.

Therefore, each engineer has his or her own position.

No engineer is willing to be an unsung hero for the factory. After all, without the salary and engineering work experience, if the steel mill is merged or collapses, they will not even have a place to cry.

Other factories won't accept your unconventional approach.

"Director..."

Guo Da came running over happily.

"What's the matter?" Lin Shaowen came back to his senses.

"Now many workers in the factory have complaints, saying that we cut down the grove..." Guo Da stammered, "Can I ask, what is our new area... for?"

"Raising livestock." Lin Shaowen said bluntly.

"Raising livestock?" Guo Da was confused.

They are a steel mill, not a livestock farm. Why raise livestock?

"Can you get meat from the farm?" Lin Shaowen asked with a squint.

"Director, stop joking. There are quotas for meat now." Guo Da said embarrassedly.

Now, not only wages are allocated centrally by the department, but also materials.

In addition to raw materials, everything else in the steel mill is limited, such as vegetables and meat... Of course, quotas are quotas, and whether there is enough left after it is distributed to you is another matter.

The Ministry is not so unkind, so you can buy it with your own money and then the Ministry will reimburse you, but... can you afford it?

As long as it is a big company, who doesn’t have a secret fund?

But they don’t want to sell it to you.

Let alone the whole country, even in the nine cities, there are countless factories of all sizes. You want to buy, he wants to buy... Then the quota will become an empty talk? It's not like breeding farms can be created out of thin air.

"Since you can't do it, just shut up." Lin Shaowen stretched.

"Yes, factory director."

Guo Da responded with lowered eyebrows, but he disagreed in his heart.

Raising livestock in a factory, isn’t that a fantasy?

In less than two days.

The new area of ​​the steel rolling mill was cleaned up, and Lin Shaowen asked Li Xinmin to invite the construction institute to come and do the construction.

"Lao Lin, tell me the truth...is this thing reliable?" Li Xinmin said while looking at the bustling construction site.

"I say, Lao Li, who am I doing this for?" Lin Shaowen frowned and said, "You just want to play with a woman and eat some good food... Is it necessary to make it so ugly?"

"Old Lin, please don't say such harsh words." Li Xinmin said embarrassedly, "My field trips... are very expensive, and I am also doing this for work."

"Tell me honestly, how many do you keep outside?" Lin Shaowen asked seriously.

"This……"

Li Xinmin looked around and took advantage of the fact that there was no one around before he stretched out his hands.

"Fuck, are you a breeding pig?" Lin Shaowen was horrified.

"Cough cough cough...We, the Li family, have good physical strength, good physical strength." Li Xinmin said with a red face.

In fact, he was being modest.

What he meant was that he couldn't count them with both hands.

"Okay, don't worry about the factory's affairs, I'll handle it... But don't mess with Liu Qiuju. She told me that if you do anything wrong again, she will stab you to death." Lin Shaowen said lightly.

"Stab...stab me to death?" Li Xinmin said in horror, "Old Lin, you must stop her. This woman is not easy to mess with. When she goes crazy...no one can stop her."

"What's going on?" Lin Shaowen suddenly became interested.

Logically speaking, Li Xinmin should not be afraid of Liu Qiuju.

"You came late, so you may not be very clear." Li Xinmin sighed, "When Liu Qiuju joined the factory, she was just an ordinary accountant. She found out that her boss, Lao Liu... was embezzling public funds."

"My goodness, she reported it to the Ministry, but the Ministry ignored her, so she went to the Procuratorate to make a scene... No one showed up at the Procuratorate either, so she took a bucket of gasoline and stood at the entrance of the Ministry of Industry, saying that no one was taking care of this matter, so she burned herself to death."

"Fuck."

Lin Shaowen was stunned when she heard this. She really didn't expect that Liu Qiuju would be so tough.

"Now you know, right?" Li Xinmin said with lingering fear.

"Then how dare you do this?" Lin Shaowen asked doubtfully.

"How am I kidding?" Li Xinmin said confidently, "The food in the factory is not good, that's the supplier's problem, right? She is in charge of finance, and logistics is not her responsibility."

"But……"

"Besides, are the workers' wages paid as usual?" Li Xinmin said disdainfully, "Although I am not a good person, I have never tampered with the wages of my fellow workers."

"No, how much can you make just from the cafeteria?" Lin Shaowen asked in surprise.

Everyone is poor now. Although the canteen provides meals for tens of thousands of people, there is actually not much oil and water... or in other words, it is not enough to sustain Li Xinmin's life.

After all, the food is not good, but the workers still have to be well fed, right?

Otherwise, they would start a fight and would tear Li Xinmin to pieces.

"Ahem... I reported a few more workers." Li Xinmin whispered, "If you want to send someone in, I'll take half of the money, and the rest is yours."

Good guy, openly reselling workers' places.

You dare to do such a thing? You are really not afraid of being shot.

"No, we agreed that you make your money and I do mine, and we won't interfere with each other." Lin Shaowen refused.

"That's right." Li Xinmin smiled bitterly, "I've heard before that you're very rich. It seems that your father, a senior engineer, didn't leave you anything, right?"

"A little bit."

Lin Shaowen smiled and didn't explain further.

His father had left him a full five thousand yuan, although he had no idea where the money came from.

"Okay, we are all in the same boat. You work hard and I'm leaving." Li Xinmin patted him on the shoulder and drove away.

Lin Shaowen looked at his car, smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He didn't even know why Li Xinmin trusted him so much.

Aren't you really afraid that you will stab him?

If Li Xinmin knew what he was thinking, he would just chuckle.

Lin Shaowen and Zhao Qingshan were close friends, and Li Xinmin's wife was Zhao Qingshan's sister. If things really got to that point, the Zhao family would definitely come forward to deal with Lin Shaowen, and...it might not even get that far.

Chapter 359 Sha Zhu Wants Divorce

Siheyuan.

Lin Shaowen had just dragged his tired body to the door when he heard a quarrel coming from the yard and was immediately shocked.
