Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 899 It's quite sudden
"If you drink with him again, I'll be your grandson!"

"Your grandson!"

“…No…that’s not right…”

Director Sun was carried out by his secretary and driver, muttering nonsense, and vomited again when he got to the car.

Now he won't help anyone except the car!
“Ah~!”

"If I... drink with him again... I'll be his grandson..."

Director Sun was already confused and couldn't even open his eyes, but he still seemed unconvinced and indignant.

What else can they do if they are not convinced? They sent a chief, two deputies and a deputy director of the office to fight against Li Xuewu and Ao Yuhua.

Yes, since Ao Yuhua didn't drink much, the four of them were defeated one-on-one by Li Xuewu.

Director Sun was really not convinced. At the beginning he said that we should stop drinking when we are done.

Later, that bad boy kept on verbally attacking them. How could they tolerate this?

Just drink, and then you can’t control yourself and drink too much.

It is better to lose the battle than the fight. What Li Xuewu said at the dinner table today, "I would rather die than fight for a gentleman", should be said by him.

It was because I couldn't beat the other party at the dinner table, so I felt a little unconfident in today's negotiations.

After today's drinking party, the glass factory was completely destroyed.

The four men were carried into the car, and their resentment made them drunk.

"啕~"

As the three jeeps left the guesthouse compound, the sound of "pouring wine" could still be heard through the open glass windows.

"Are you really okay?"

Zhang Songying looked at the mess on the ground and frowned in disgust.

Then I turned around and looked at Li Xuewu. He was standing on the steps with a smirk on his face.

The waiter and security guard on duty were looking for shovels to shovel the dirt and clean up the yard. The scene was a mess.

This scene formed a sharp contrast with Li Xuewu, who was living a peaceful life with his hands in his pockets, lamenting the loneliness of the world.

“How can they be my opponent?”

Li Xuewu looked at everyone with a disdainful look, raised his eyebrows and said with a sly smile: "They are all garbage~"

"Be a good person!"

Zhang Songying couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth and said unhappily: "Not only did you get yourself drunk, but who would dare to drink with you in the future?"

"Well, you don't know this."

Li Xuewu walked down the steps with a smile, watched Han Jiankun park the car, and whispered to Zhang Songying: "There may be one last time for that, but there will never be a last time for drinking."

"Go to hell!"

Zhang Songying said something to him in anger, glanced across the hall, and saw Deputy Director Ao coming out, so she took the initiative to go up the stairs to greet her.

"I'm fine, I didn't drink much"

Ao Yuhua had just gone to the toilet. When he came downstairs, he saw Li Xuewu standing in the yard. He greeted Zhang Songying and said, "Xuewu drinks a lot."

"Him? He is the drunkard~"

Zhang Songying glanced at Li Xuewu over there, and said a few words to Ao Yuhua with a sweet smile.

Li Xuewu took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it for himself, then threw the rest to the security guard on duty.

"Thank you, leader"

The security guard is young and very sweet-spoken, especially when facing Li Xuewu, he never forgets to smile while working.

The Security Department was used to Li Xuewu's appreciation of cigarettes.

But not many people really got the cigarettes. After all, Li Xuewu didn't just hang around doing nothing all day.

He would only throw his cigarette on occasions like tonight or in more casual situations.

Most of them are from Daqianmen. Everyone in the security department knows that the leaders love to smoke this.

Sometimes you can also meet Zhonghua. Anyway, the leaders are generous and give away whatever they take out.

Those who get the cigarettes naturally don’t want to smoke them. They have to show off for several days and wish everyone in the department knew about it.

It happened tonight as the leader was hosting a dinner at the guesthouse. The visitor had an accident at the door, so how could they not try their best to perform.

Of course, they won’t get any recognition for doing these things, but if the leaders give them cigarettes, it means that their actions are noticed by the leaders.

These jobs were originally the job of the waiters, why are they taking the initiative to do them?

One is that the Security Department collaborates with all the key departments in the factory, especially locations like the guesthouse, which require 24-hour duty.

When you are on someone else's territory, you naturally have to build good relationships.

When there is some work, everyone helps each other. They take the initiative to lend a hand, and the waiters are also polite in return.

The security guards are big guys and the waiters are all pretty girls. You can judge for yourself.

Another thing is that if the leader of your department is really there, it would be a way to show your face if you take the initiative to help.

It is better to show your face than to disgrace yourself. Look, the leader of the glass factory has disgraced himself today!

"Where did you drink all this wine?"

Ao Yuhua said she didn't drink much, but today at the table, there were only her and Li Xuewu from the steel mill side.

Even if you drink less, it would be at least 8 ounces, if not a pound.

Her face was rosy, especially when the evening breeze blew in late October, her face looked even redder.

I was fine when I came out of the hall, but when the cool breeze blew, I felt dizzy.

She looked at Li Xuewu, wanting to see whether the wine he had just drunk had entered his stomach or gone somewhere else.

It’s no wonder she was surprised, it was just that Li Xuewu drank too much today.

One set of knocks can finish a whole round of drinking, which made the talkative deputy director of the glass factory very angry.

"Where are you looking?"

Of course Li Xuewu really drank a little, otherwise there would be no smell of alcohol in his mouth, which would have been a big giveaway.

Seeing Ao Yuhua laughing and making noises, he deliberately twisted his body to prevent him from looking at his lower body.

“I see you’ve all left from the bottom lane! Hahahaha!”

Women who come out of this agency dare to joke, especially in private. After drinking a little, they dare to say anything.

Li Xuewu was not afraid of this. He pointed at the jeep lane and said, "You already know everything. Why don't you take me back to your house to change pants?"

"Go to hell~ We don't have any pants for you in our house!"

Ao Yuhua was teased by Li Xuewu and said with a smile: "Why don't you ask Director Zhang if she has pants."

"I won't give him any clothes if I have them~"

Zhang Songying didn't care about Ao Yuhua's joke at all, and said jokingly with a smile: "Let him go home with you."

"If you want to go back, I'll take you back with me!"

Ao Yuhua is a few years older than Zhang Songying, and he dares to joke with such a relaxed colleague.

Besides, she is not blind or deaf. Who would believe that she can be the deputy director of the guesthouse without Li Xuewu's relationship?

She didn't say that Zhang Songying and Li Xuewu had that kind of relationship, but no one knew what she was thinking.

If I hadn't thought about it, how could I have deliberately made that joke?

"Okay~ You two sisters should sleep together tonight."

Li Xuewu pinched out the cigarette butt with his fingers, waved his hand with a smile and said: "It's almost time, I have to go home to be with my wife."

"Hey, don't go."

Ao Yuhua said with a smile: "Call Songying and let's have a drink."

"I wouldn't dare!"

Li Xuewu opened the door and jumped into the jeep, saying to her, "Don't think I don't know what my brother-in-law does. If you really want to embarrass me, do you want me to do it?"

He patted Han Jiankun's seat, signaling that he could drive, and waved to the two of them again from the window, "I'm leaving first, you guys should come back early too!"

"Really caring for the family~"

Ao Yuhua smiled as he watched the jeep leave, said something to Zhang Songying, and then asked, "How are you going back? How about taking the same car with me and I'll take you first?"

"Why go back and make trouble? Just live here."

Zhang Songying smiled and sent her to the car, saying caring words, and recommended her honey water for after-drinking and dumpling soup for getting up early.

Ao Yuhua didn’t have much contact with Zhang Songying before, and they became really familiar with each other only after he arrived at the Management Committee Office.

Speaking of which, the former factory office, now the management committee office, is the main management unit of the guesthouse.

However, neither Xu Sinian in the past nor Ding Zigui in the present asked about the affairs of the guesthouse.

Everyone knows that this is Li Xuewu's private land. He can handle business impartially here, but he cannot make decisions here.

Even Director Li would not easily give his opinions here, and would take Li Xuewu's face and emotions into consideration in every aspect.

She and Li Xuewu are now working together in the Management Committee Office. Qin Huairu and Zhang Songying from the guesthouse are both capable people, so of course she has to appreciate this favor.

After getting in the car, Ao Yuhua held Zhang Songying's hand and whispered: "The leaders of the Six Nations Hotel attach great importance to it. This is also an opportunity for you. You must seize it."

"Yes, I will."

Zhang Songying nodded and agreed very seriously. She didn't need anyone to remind her, as she was certainly very confident about it.

The two talked for a few more words before parting.

Zhang Songying saw Ao Yuhua off, took a look at the Tuanjie Lake covered with white mist, and walked back.

The weather was cool, but the water in Tuanjie Lake was still warm, so naturally it formed into masses of white mist, which looked very beautiful under the lights at night.

With the help of the guys from the security department, the entrance has been cleaned up.

Zhang Songying signaled everyone to go back to the house quickly and not wear much to avoid catching a cold.

Feng Juan trotted out of the hall and saw that the event had ended at the entrance of the building. She then asked regretfully, "Are all the leaders gone?"

"Just left for a while~"

Zhang Songying glanced at her and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"It's okay~"

Feng Juan smiled and said, "That's right, the leader left and I didn't come out to see him off. It didn't look good."

"Don't worry, everyone was drunk, no one paid attention to this."

Zhang Songying patted her arm, motioned for them to go inside together, and said as they walked: "Don't be too deliberate. You still need to be flexible when providing service."

“Yes, I will learn more from you.”

Feng Juan has not been here for long, just over half a month, and it was Li Xuewu who instructed her to do so.

She originally worked in finance, so Qin Huairu assigned her to be in charge of the internal affairs when she was dividing the work.

Including the finance and logistics of the guesthouse, and also familiarity with the service business.

Zhang Songying was not very familiar with her before, and they only met when she received her salary every month.

She didn't expect that someone working in finance could be so polite.

In her impression, the ugliest look in the world was given by the financial staff, even uglier than her mother-in-law's! ——
"why are not you sleeping?"

When Li Xuewu got home, he found that the light was still on in the window on the second floor.

The old lady was naturally asleep, so he didn't dare to make any noise and went upstairs quietly.

On the second floor, Gu Ning was sitting behind the desk practicing calligraphy. Her belly was getting bigger and her waist felt tired after standing for a long time.

She had written little before, and Li Xuewu didn't know why she suddenly felt like practicing calligraphy.

He put the bag in his hand on the tea table, took off his clothes, and walked to the desk to look at the calligraphy written by his wife.

"It's well written. What's the style?"

"you've been drinking?"

Gu Ning ignored his nonsense and put down the pen when he saw him coming over with a smell of alcohol on his breath.

"The leader of the glass factory came to discuss cooperation and invited us to stay tonight."

Li Xuewu unbuttoned his shirt and explained to Gu Ning: "I didn't drink much. If you don't believe me, smell it."

As he spoke, he was about to breathe towards Gu Ning, causing Gu Ning to rub her eyelids in disgust.

"Mom called today"

"Yeah~"

Without Gu Ning emphasizing it, Li Xuewu knew that the "mom" she was referring to was her mother-in-law.

"What do you mean, are both old people doing well?"

"Well, it means that my sister-in-law is pregnant."

Gu Ning calmly talked about today's phone call and stood up by holding the armrest of the chair.

"That's good~"

When Li Xuewu saw her standing up, he quickly reached out to support her. Seeing that her legs were a little stiff, he just gave her a princess hug.

Gu Ning did not struggle, but her face turned red. She still could not accept this form of intimacy.

It doesn’t mean that a couple can’t be close to each other even if they are about to have children.

This is not shyness, but an accident of love.

Gu Ning was accustomed to the traditional way of intimacy, but Li Xuewu would give her this kind of "trick" from time to time.

She had seen this kind of princess hug in novels and had fantasized that one day she would be able to have such love.

It's just that love came suddenly, and I was a little excited. I'm not used to it~
"Did you say how many months it has been?"

Li Xuewu put Gu Ning on the bed, and while pulling the curtains, he asked about the situation at his eldest brother-in-law's side.

Gu Ning pulled the quilt to cover himself, let his hair down, and said in a calm tone: "It's been three months, mom said it's fine."

"Haha, did mom talk about you?"

Li Xuewu turned around and glanced at Gu Ning. It looked like he had been scolded by his mother-in-law again.

Gu Ning didn't say anything. He curled up and lay in the quilt. His eyes fell on Li Xuewu's expression and he just looked at him.

"It's okay. It's everyone's first time being a wife or a mother~"

Li Xuewu sat beside the bed, patted her back gently, and comforted her: "Just listen with a learning attitude. Mom is too far away and is anxious."

"Um"

Gu Ning agreed softly, pursed his lips, and seemed to be somewhat concerned.

If she didn't say anything, Li Xuewu wouldn't know what his mother-in-law said, but he could probably guess it.

It's nothing more than telling her to take care of the pregnancy, exercise more, read less, talk more, or asking her why she doesn't write or call her parents.

Gu Ning was really able to bear it. As long as Li Xuewu called her or told her about the situation with his parents, she would not write letters or call him.

It’s not that I don’t care, nor am I unfilial. I just want to think simply and live a simple life. I don’t want even a little bit of pretense or exaggeration.

Li Xuewu understood her, so he tried his best to tolerate and take care of her.

Gu Ning didn't want to make long-distance calls or say meaningless words of concern, so he just did it and said it.

When he was in Guangzhou, he called his mother-in-law. He didn't just talk about his third aunt, but also expressed his concern for the two elders.

After he came back, he was busy with work and before he had time to talk on the phone, his mother-in-law called him today.

A mother worries about her son even when he is far away. Even though they are so far apart, Gu Ning is pregnant again. As a mother, how can she not worry?

If Gu Ning doesn't take the initiative, she has to take the initiative. If she can't hear her daughter's concern for her, she can't help but say a few more words.

When the mother and daughter were together, they didn't fight like this, but now both of them are in a bad mood.

In fact, Li Xuewu didn't know that when his mother-in-law called him today, she also disliked him.

It’s not anything else. This son-in-law is naturally good in every way, but he has no requirements when it comes to Gu Ning and spoils her too much.

If a daughter-in-law stays at home basking in the sun every day and doesn't go out for a walk, she can be said to not visit relatives. But she must visit relatives.

How could a couple keep making concessions like this in their life? Ding Fengxia was worried about them.

She was not afraid of anything else, she was just afraid that her daughter would be lonely for the rest of her life. What would she do if her son-in-law lost his patience and got tired of her one day?
At that time, will she and Gu Haitao be able to make the decision or persuade the couple to reconcile?

At that time, it was unclear whether the two were there or not. Who would live their life like a romance novel?

When Ding Fengxia was scolding Li Xuewu on the phone, she was actually teaching her daughter a lesson, just in a roundabout way.

Gu Ning obviously heard it, but not much was retained, and the rest came out of the other ear.

She only remembered her mother's words now: "Will he still be so accommodating to you when he's old? For the rest of his life?"

Gu Ning had been thinking about this question since dinner. Now that Li Xuewu was back, she was still thinking about it.

"you say"

Gu Ning twisted his body and lay flat on the pillow. He looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "If two people stay together for a lifetime, will they get tired of each other?"

"What do you mean?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, looked at Gu Ning and asked, "Are you annoyed with me?"

Gu Ning was so angry that she pursed her lips. What the hell was going on?

"I just asked"

"Why do you ask this?"

Li Xuewu pretended to be concerned and asked, "Are you still annoyed with me?"

Seeing him making trouble, Gu Ning turned away and stopped looking at him.

"What did you hear?"

Seeing that she was not taking the bait, Li Xuewu leaned forward, looked into her eyes and asked, "If it's not you, then it must be mom?"

Gu Ning turned his head and glared at Li Xuewu: "Go wash your face and brush your teeth!"

"Who is that?"

Li Xuewu stood up and said confidently: "No matter who it is, don't worry, we will never be like them. I haven't had enough of you yet."

Gu Ning pouted and signaled him with her eyes to hurry up and talk less.

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and teased her deliberately, "Do you want a kiss?"

"..."

Gu Ning imitated Li Xuewu's squinting eyes and said in a deliberately gloomy tone: "There is a vacant room downstairs."

"Okay, no kiss, no kiss"

Li Xuewu walked into the bathroom with amusement, still muttering to himself: "Wait until I wash my face and brush my teeth before kissing you."

Gu Ning couldn't help but smile when he heard his shameless words, as if the question about his mother in his heart had been answered.

This person is different. Maybe everyone is different. She just hasn't met one before.

But she dared to believe that the person she met would not be tired of her.

She is not a heartless person like an ice cube without emotions. She is very aware of how good Li Xuewu is to her, and she also takes the initiative to express her kindness to Li Xuewu.

But sometimes, love is not the template in the books, nor is it the trivial matters that parents talk about, but the little warmth between two people.

She would still be annoyed if Li Xuewu kissed her with a breath of alcohol or cigarette smoke on his mouth.

She was unwilling to socialize, and even less willing to visit relatives, but Li Xuewu still advised her to walk around and move more.

Both of them can see each other's shortcomings, but this will not be a reason to get tired of each other.

She understood the life philosophy her mother taught her, but she still believed that love was needed in life.

Life without love is boring and unremarkable.

But now she lives a fulfilling life, enjoying the little surprises Li Xuewu gives her and expressing her surprise at the right time.

Isn't this the love and life she wants?

At night, she lit a lamp for Li Xuewu, waiting for his return.

At dawn, Li Xuewu gave her a kiss that encouraged her to sleep a little longer.

Li Xuewu gets up early. He used to get milk for Li Shu, but now that Qin Jingru is coming from home, he will bring it along.

Although he has developed the habit of getting up early, Li Xuewu likes to sleep in. Even if he can't sleep, he still likes to lie in bed.

But apart from his daughter's affairs, he also had a lot of things to do.

I've been in Yangcheng for half a month. There's so much work to do at the factory that I can't handle it, and I also have a lot of things to do at home.

Shen Guodong knew that he was back, so he sent the financial statements made by his sister-in-law and the business statements given by Yu Li to his home.

Li Xuewu had no time to watch it during the day, and he had to spend time with his family at night, so he could only get up early to watch it.

Qin Jingru prepared breakfast and stood on the stairs calling for dinner while Li Xuewu went through the documents.

Including the situation in Jicheng and the situation in Gangcheng after Wen Saner left.

He was not worried about the capital. Although Shen Guodong had just taken over, he had been working as Biaozi's assistant for some time.

With the support of other relationships and connections, what could go wrong?

However, whether Xilin of Jicheng can stand up this time, or settle the turmoil after he left, is crucial to the future layout of Jicheng.

Relatively speaking, it was much easier for Biaozi. He was able to move freely and aggressively. With the foundation laid by Wen Saner and without the constraints of Zhang Wanhe, he could do whatever he wanted.

There was a Dongfeng No. 1 Club in Beijing, and he set up a Gangcheng Youth Club on the site of the youth club that Yu Min had originally managed.

The fun was quite serious now, without all the extravagances of the past. The three-story building was fully utilized and became an exchange for Steel City trade.

This guy has grasped the essence of the operation of Dongfeng-1. He never gets involved in any trouble and actually implements the elite system and membership system.

The club is not open to the public, which ensures its safety, and most of its members are outstanding young people from Gangcheng.

This also includes heads of some related cooperative units. They get together in the evening to have dinner and chat, which is quite relaxing.

Compared with Da Qiangzi's previous business strategy, Lao Biaozi seems to be more smooth and good at dealing with key figures.

Ever since Li Xuewu introduced him to Director Ma of the supply and marketing cooperative, Lao Biaozi no longer considered himself a street thug.

He was the manager and the person in charge of the recycling station. When he arrived in Steel City, he was still the person in charge. His interactions with those key figures were not low-key.

These people now look at Lao Biaozi much more favorably. The old man used to have a bandit-like air about him, and he was petty in his daily actions.

The transition to Gangcheng was smooth, without the twists and turns that Li Xuewu had worried about. This was also related to Lao Biaozi's quick decision-making and his making friends with these key figures.

No one from above is investigating, and no one below dares to cause trouble, so the world is peaceful, isn't it?

If Gangcheng is stable, Jicheng will be stable, and the trade line starting from Gangcheng can be opened.

Winter is coming soon, and Jicheng's timber, dry goods and other resources will continue to flow out of the mountains, into the train station, and be transported to distant places.

In the past, these things had to be done secretly, but now under the guise of a steel rolling mill, the people at the recycling station have transformed themselves into managers and directors, and everything is done in an orderly manner.

"take!"

Seeing that Baba was watching seriously, Li Shu became curious about what interesting thing he was holding in his hand.

She stretched out her little hand and stared with her big eyes, meaning: Let me see what you have in your hand!

"What to take?"

Li Xuewu put down her folded legs, picked up a peanut from the coffee table, peeled it open, and put the peanut kernel in her hand to tease her.

Li Shu looked at the nut in her little hand and wanted to say that this was not what she wanted, but she couldn't help wanting to eat it.

She pursed her lips, unable to hold back her saliva, and while Baba wasn't paying attention, she stuffed the food into her mouth.

"want!"

This time Li Shu’s goal was very clear, she wanted to eat.

As for the thing in Baba's hand, it must be inedible, otherwise why would Baba just look at it but not eat it?

"Don't give her food, she'll choke again."

The old lady came over, bent down, and looked at Li Shu's little mouth, which was still chewing.

Peanut kernels are too hard for her, and her baby teeth cannot completely overcome this kind of food.

"What a joke! Let's go eat quickly."

The old lady picked out the unchewed peanuts from Li Shu's mouth and complained to her grandson.

Li Shu saw Baba was about to leave, and her wife wouldn't let her eat, so she became angry.

"Ah!~"

She shouted loudly, trying to get her nuts back from the lady, but was picked up from behind by Baba.

"Let's go~ Let's go eat~"

"ah!"

Li Shu was carried on Baba's shoulders, her big eyes still staring at the lady's hand.

The old lady wiped it clean with a tissue, and when she saw Gu Ning coming downstairs, she urged, "Eat quickly, or it will get cold."

"Okay, grandma, have you eaten?"

Gu Ning was wearing pajamas with a thin vest on the outside, which was made by her mother-in-law and brought back by Guodong when he came a few days ago.

When the old lady spoke to her, she had to talk back. She couldn't let the old lady's words fall on the ground, as that was impolite.

The old lady nodded, pointed to the restaurant and said, "We've eaten. We're waiting for you."

As she explained, she looked at Han Jiankun who was cleaning the car at the door and muttered, "The car is clean, why are you always cleaning it?"

Gu Ning also took a look but didn't pay much attention to it. When he was at home, the driver also had to clean the car every morning. This might be his job or a habit.

Li Xuewu held Li Shu and sat at the dining table, eating a bite himself and feeding his daughter a bite.

Li Shu was not honest when eating. She always had something to play with in her hands while chewing.

When Gu Ning entered the restaurant, she had a sharp eye and put down the chopsticks she was gesturing with without waiting for her mother to say anything.

"Put her on the chair and feed her."

Gu Ning said something to Li Xuewu, reminding him not to cultivate bad eating habits for the children.

Li Xuewu kissed his daughter and said, "I haven't been to my daughter's side for a long time. I feel very sad today."

The old father wanted to appear loving, but Li Shu was not very interested.

The little hand scratched his face, not wanting to come closer.

"I want~"

Seeing Baba looking at her with a sad expression, Li Shu pointed at the bowl with her little hand and reminded him to pay attention to his identity in a very rude manner.

You are serving your children meals, can you please concentrate a little?
Why do you always want to take advantage of me!
-
"Don't always think about taking advantage, show real sincerity"

The first meeting on Friday morning was chaired by Li Xuewu, which was about the renovation of the Six Nations Hotel.

Participants in the meeting included construction unit representative Dou Yaozu, operations manager Zhang Songying, engineering manager Lang Zhennan, and heads of other relevant departments.

Li Xuewu and Lang Zhennan have met and held meetings many times in the past two days. No matter what project it is, it cannot be separated from the support of the Engineering Department.

The commencement of all projects requires the Engineering Agency to take the lead in organizing and reviewing the groundbreaking operations.

It is mainly about the review of engineering design and construction plan, and the construction should be handed over to a professional team.

The steel rolling mill also has its own engineering team, but it is mainly responsible for maintenance and upkeep. After all, it is not a construction unit, so there is no need to operate on such a large scale.

That is to say, the amount of project work has increased sharply this year, including the residential projects under construction. There was never so much workload before.

So today Lang Zhennan came to the meeting to look at the plan brought by the construction party from the capacity and perspective of an auditor.

Dou Yaozu had been reminded by Li Xuewu a long time ago and had obtained the basic data of the Six Nations Hotel during the last renovation.

So what he came up with this time was a plan he came up with by organizing the teachers and students of Huaqing Architecture Department in Dongfeng Architecture, combined with the design requirements he learned from Li Xuewu.

It was an open-book exam and with such strong off-field support, it would be difficult for Dou Yaozu not to get full marks.

This meeting was certainly not a formality. Several people including Li Xuewu, Lang Zhennan and Zhang Songying put forward their opinions on revisions and additional suggestions.

Dou Yaozu brought the designers to look at the drawings spread out on the table and gave modification plans on the spot based on everyone's opinions and requests. This really made Lang Zhennan take a new look at Dongfeng Construction, a seemingly makeshift unit.

Finally, when the budget was being approved, the person in charge of finance wanted to put a stop to it. After all, Dongfeng Construction had already undertaken too many steel rolling mill projects, so it was a sure win.

But Li Xuewu specifically mentioned this situation when he was speaking.

The project cost, including budget assessment, has certain construction standards and predictions. Special factors such as personal relationships cannot be taken into account.

Li Xuewu also mentioned the equal relationship between budget and quality. If Party A wants to gain an advantage in terms of budget, Party B will want to gain the advantage back in terms of project quality.

You take mine, I take yours, who loses out in the end?

It cannot be said absolutely that money is not saved, but sometimes money should not be saved.

Of course, Li Xuewu didn't say this just because Dongfeng Construction was sitting here. He would say this to anyone who was sitting here today.

From the very beginning, he did not want to let the cadres of the steel mill develop the idea of ​​exchanging fame and achievements for budget cuts or excessive savings.

If you really want to save money, there are places where you can't save. Go and tell Li Huaide to stop organizing receptions. How much money can you save?

He is very particular about efficiency when holding meetings. If anyone says something wrong, he will point it out immediately.

Questions are asked one after another, and whoever raises a question will have that problem solved immediately.

Just now, Dou Yaozu was facing the review and questioning from the steel rolling mill, but now both sides are talking about money without hurting feelings.

The door of the conference room on the third floor was tightly closed. Business negotiations, especially those involving money and budgets, must not be leaked out.

At this time, including secretaries and service staff, had to stand outside the door.

Today, Peng Xiaoli from the First Department of the Management Committee Office was in charge of organizing and coordinating the meeting, so naturally he had to stand at the door and listen.

There was no news that the meeting was over, but there was news that the leader wanted to talk to him.

Lao Jin from the department came to call him and said that Deputy Director Wang wanted to talk to him and asked him to come over immediately.

Peng Xiaoli was also stunned for a moment and looked at Lao Jin with some surprise.

Old Jin understood what was going on. He patted his arm and urged him to hurry over as it was his turn to be on duty.

Peng Xiaoli agreed, still wondering why his leader wanted to talk to him.

Being approached by a leader and having a conversation with him are two different things.

He is a clerk in a department of the Management Committee Office, and Deputy Director Wang is the deputy director of the Management Committee Office. It is common for the leader to ask him to make work arrangements.

But if we talk about it, that's not what I mean.

Feeling uneasy, wondering if he had done something wrong, he nervously knocked on Deputy Director Wang's office door.

"Come on, Xiaoli"

Wang Zongli was sitting on the sofa and waved when she saw him knocking on the door.

On the sofa, Peng Xiaoli also saw Sha, deputy director of the Security Group’s General Office.

Isn't this Li Xuewu's secretary? Why is she here?

"Hello, Leader, Hello, Director Sha"

Peng Xiaoli took the initiative to greet him. With a lot of thoughts in his mind, he walked to the sofa calmly and said, "What work do you want me to do?"

"Sit down, sit down first."

Wang Zongli always kept a smile on her face. Seeing that he was a little nervous, she waved her hand to signal him to sit down first.

It would be fine if she didn't do this. The more she did this, the more uncertain Peng Xiaoli felt.

Deputy Director Wang was not so friendly before.

No, it’s not that there isn’t one, but he doesn’t have one, and I haven’t seen any for the secretaries of other management committees either.

However, when it comes to leaders, especially senior leaders who come down to inspect, Deputy Director Wang still has a smile that is even warmer than today.

But even this kind of smile today made him feel a little uncomfortable.

In the Management Committee Office, Deputy Director Wang is in charge of organizational work. If she came to talk to me, there could only be two possible results.

Either progress or adjustment.

The progress seemed... He was not sure. After all, there was nothing outstanding about his work during this period.

But as for adjustments, this is very likely.

The predecessor of the Management Committee Office was the Factory Office. The main responsibility of the Factory Office was to provide services, to serve the leaders, and to serve the work flow within the factory.

Colleagues in the service, as secretaries, also need to be mobile.

Not only the leaders' secretaries will take up the post, but everyone else, including them, will face this choice after working for a certain number of years.

The factory's personnel department or the leader in charge of organizational work will fully consider the issue of young people in various departments going to the grassroots for training.

Everyone focuses on the leader's secretary because although they are both secretaries, the treatment varies greatly.

The young people in the office are in their prime, and it is a good time to work. After a few years of office training, they can become the backbone of the department.

This kind of talent flow is normal and necessary for factories, but it is very uncomfortable for individuals.

Working in the management committee office, you are a secretary at least, and people have to call you director when you go down to the office.

But once they really go down to the grassroots level, who will care about them? If they are not in leadership positions, they will basically waste their whole lives there.

Peng Xiaoli had had opportunities to work as a secretary for his superiors before, but he always missed them for one reason or another.

Director Xu also took good care of him and trained him, which is why he is so versatile and well-mannered today.

Maybe he was pursuing this goal too much, and he still hasn't waited for any leader to choose him as a secretary.

Today, facing Deputy Director Wang's unusual attitude in the conversation, he broke out in a cold sweat.

He sat on the sofa with a hoarse voice and a resigned expression.

Wang Zongli may have seen through his thoughts, and asked with a smile: "Is it me who is scary, or is it Deputy Director Sha who is scary? Why are you like this?"

"Where is your former cleverness and ability?"

"lead……"

Peng Xiaoli didn't hear Deputy Director Wang's reminder and was still wondering where he would be assigned.

Wang Zongli also realized that this kid was getting stuck in a dead end.

Afraid of really scaring him, Wang Zongli stopped teasing him and went straight to the point: "Deputy Director Sha will be in charge of the work of the Foreign Trade Office, and Deputy Director Li is now short of a clerk."

"Ah, ah?"

Peng Xiaoli didn't react. He knew that Deputy Director Sha was in charge of the Foreign Trade Office, so what did Deputy Director Li's lack of a secretary have to do with him... That's not right!
Looking at Peng Xiaoli who was still in a daze, Wang Zongli coughed. She couldn't bear to watch him like that because he seemed to be quite smart.

She turned her head and gestured to Sha Qizhi who was sitting next to her, and explained to Peng Xiaoli: "Deputy Director Sha is here to talk to you today on behalf of Deputy Director Li."

"Deputy Director Li..."

Peng Xiaoli seemed to have reacted, but the disbelief deep in his heart made his expression even more confused than before.

Sha Qizhi smiled understandingly and said, "We are already very familiar with each other. The leader is busy today, so he asked me to talk to you."

“Ah… yes.”

Peng Xiaoli squeezed his hands hard, forced himself to calm down, looked at Sha Qizhi and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Deputy Director Sha, this... this news is a bit sudden."

"Haha~ it was quite sudden."

Sha Qizhi chuckled, glanced at Wang Zongli beside him, and then said to him: "So what do you think, tell me."

"me……"

Peng Xiaoli was so nervous that he wanted to jump from the third floor, and so excited that he wanted to jump from the downstairs to the third floor.

"It's okay, you can tell me anything you think."

Sha Qizhi is an experienced person, and his former self is also the Peng Xiaoli of today.

He took the initiative to comfort the other person and wanted to hear what the young man thought.

Peng Xiaoli's forehead and palms were covered in sweat, and he didn't know whether it was because of the fear just now or the excitement now.

After hearing Deputy Director Sha's consolation, he spoke out what was in his heart: "I... I'm not nervous..."
