Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

"What? 2000 people? Are you kidding me? Where can I get so many people for you?"

"I don't care. We have 500 people to be sent back to the countryside soon. Add to that the personnel needed for the new workshop, and these 2000 may not be enough."

Director Zhu shouted, "How can you need so many?"

He Yuzhu said: "You are really stingy. This is our first visit and you didn't even give us a cup of tea."

As He Yuzhu spoke, he opened the cabinet next to him. There were two tea cans in it. He opened them both and then put the untouched can of Tieguanyin into his briefcase.

Then I opened the box next to it and made three cups of tea.

Director Zhu shouted, "This is too much. I only have one pound of good tea leaves, and you are robbing me?"

When they first started dealing with each other, He Yuzhu was very respectful to the director, but as time went on he became more casual.

What's more, the other party asked him for help, so He Yuzhu would certainly not be polite.

Ordinary tea is easy to buy, but this kind of special tea is only available to leaders of higher levels.

He Yuzhu said: "I wonder why you are so stingy. Let me show you a document."

He Yuzhu took out the design drawings of the refrigerator and freezer from his briefcase and placed them on Director Zhu's desk.

Director Zhu picked up the document and took a look at it, then took off his reading glasses, wiped them, and looked at it carefully.

“Is this the new product you designed?”

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "The compressor of the air conditioner is already quite advanced, and can be used in refrigerators and freezers. It's just that some adjustments in the details don't require such a large current."

“That’s when I modified the air conditioning compressor accordingly, and then I could produce refrigerators and freezers.”

"You are too fast. The air conditioner hasn't even been produced yet, but you have a new product."

He Yuzhu still said proudly: "Now I'm giving you a pound of tea, you have nothing to say, right?"

Director Zhu immediately smiled and said, "It's okay. Just take this information and I'll give you 10 kilograms of tea as a reward."

"Then let's make a deal. You still owe me 10 kilograms of tea."

Director Zhu was just excited at the moment and made a metaphor casually, but he didn't expect He Yuzhu to take the initiative and settle the matter immediately.

He opened his mouth in surprise and said, "Without someone like you, where can I get 10 kilograms of tea for you?"

He Yuzhu said, "Old Zhu, you can't do this. I haven't received the reward for inventing the air conditioner yet."

"This"

He Yuzhu said: "Besides, I have a new freezer and refrigerator, and 10 kilograms of tea can only be one of the rewards."

Director Zhu sighed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll reward you with 10 kilograms of the best tea leaves."

He Yuzhu's request for tea was just a minor matter; he came here today to solve the labor problem.

He said, "The factory is short of qualified workers. You need to get me 2000 workers."

"Aren't you making things difficult for me? Where can I find so many people for you?"

He Yuzhu said: "Then what can I do? How can we produce without people?"

"It's definitely a problem."

He Yuzhu came here today to ask him to solve this problem, otherwise it would be hard to say when it would be solved.

But Director Zhu had not considered this issue before and just thought that the street would provide enough manpower.

"Don't you have a technical school?"

He Yuzhu said: "Before, they were all short-term students. We only started recruiting long-term students this fall. What we want now are qualified workers."

"But I have no other choice. Where can I find workers for you?"

He Yuzhu had thought about it before. Director Li wanted to merge his machinery factory and make it part of the steel rolling mill.

As the saying goes, "It is impolite not to reciprocate", this time He Yuzhu also set his sights on the steel rolling mill. Of course, He Yuzhu does not have the ability to take over the entire factory.

After all, it is a factory directly under the ministry.

He Yuzhu said: "The main business of the rolling mill is steelmaking. Their lathe workshops are dispensable. Why don't they hand over those workshops to our factory?"

Director Zhu immediately shook his head:

"What? That won't work. Are you kidding? The lathe workshop is not very important, but it also undertakes a lot of production tasks. Without them, many parts cannot be produced."

He Yuzhu said: "If you can't give me the workshop, can you take some of the workers out of there and give them to us?"

"this."

"Just don't give me one or two hundred more skilled workers."

"How can I give you so many people? This won't work."

He Yuzhu then stated his ultimate goal. He knew that the steel mill would not agree to his two requests, but they were just sky-high prices.

His real target was actually the machine repair shop affiliated with the steel rolling mill.

The machine repair factory is where the two Ladi, Liang Ladi, Nanyi and others work. It is also a subsidiary factory of the steel rolling mill and has thousands of employees.

"Since you are not willing to give us even skilled workers, why don't you give us the machine repair shop?"

“A machine shop?”

This time Director Zhu did not reject it immediately, but fell into deep thought.

The machinery factory’s current difficulty is indeed the lack of qualified workers. It is simply unable to recruit from the society in a short period of time, and it is too late to train them.

If you want to complete the production task smoothly, you can only find workers yourself.

Merging other units into the machinery factory is indeed a simple and convenient way.

"But there is a problem. Your machinery factory is a street collective enterprise, a machine repair factory, and it belongs to our ministry. We can't just give you a factory like this."

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment. He had never thought of this question before.

Only then did I remember that every factory has its own mother-in-law, and different supervisory units will result in different affiliations.

For example, the Ministry of Machinery and the Ministry of Railways each had their own set of factories and did not interact with each other.

The products produced by each factory are only supplied to their own systems.

To be precise, the machine repair shop and the machinery factory are two different systems and cannot be directly allocated in this way.

If this problem is not solved, this matter cannot be accomplished.

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said, "How about this? Our machinery factory and the machinery department will cooperate to set up a new factory, whose main business will be to produce compressors, air conditioners, refrigerators, and freezers."

"Your Machinery Department owns half of the shares, but the management rights belong to our Machinery Factory."

Shares are not a new thing that only appeared after the reform and opening up.

"this."

Director Zhu said: "I will report this to the leadership and see their opinions."

He Yuzhu said: "Otherwise, you can send me 2000 qualified workers, and I will return them to you after the summer is over."

He Yuzhu originally planned that the machinery factory would have 3000 workers to handle daily production and then gradually expand in scale.

However, he did not expect that he had developed the air-conditioning compressor and needed to build an additional workshop, which disrupted his plans.

Director Zhu said: "I will report your idea to the leader. Even if it doesn't work, we will transfer a group of workers to form a compressor workshop first."

He Yuzhu then talked about the repatriation of workers. They were all qualified workers who had been trained, and it would be a pity to send them back to farm.

Director Zhu said: "There is nothing we can do about this. This is a general trend."

He Yuzhu thought he could make some concessions here and keep some people here, but it seems he doesn't have that much power.

Director Zhu said, "Why don't you go find the senior leader?"

He Yuzhu nodded, this was the last resort.

After leaving the research institute, He Yuzhu took Lu Xiaomi to find Lao Mo.

When He Yuzhu spoke authentic Russian to the waiter, Lu Xiaomi was stunned.

After the waiter left, Lv Xiaomi asked, "You can speak Russian, why do you speak it so authentically?"

He Yuzhu said: "Nothing, I have been to Moscow several times, not only can I speak Russian, but also French, Spanish, etc."

Lu Xiaomi opened her mouth wide, and after a long while she asked, "Is this true?"

"Do I need to lie to you? You've already been deceived by me anyway."

Lu Xiaomi was so angry that she raised her foot and kicked him on the leg. This bastard, his words can choke people to death.

It was still early, so the two returned to the small western-style building and had a crazy afternoon before going home.

The next day, Director Zhu came to the door, sat down and said with a smile: "After the leaders' research, they decided to hand over the machine repair shop to you."

"Really?" He Yuzhu didn't expect it to be so smooth.

Director Zhu said: "How can I deceive you? I will also transfer a group of workers from other factories to make up 2500 people for you."

"Thank you so much. Now the air conditioner can be put into production soon."

"Get ready. We'll go to the machine repair shop this afternoon to handle the handover formalities."

After finishing this business, Director Zhu brought some gifts of comfort, including rewards for the machinery factory as a whole and commendations for He Yuzhu personally.

Personal awards were various bills. In addition to ordinary supply and marketing cooperatives, senior leaders also had a service cooperative.

Ordinary people cannot go in and buy various high-end goods, as they are only sold to specific groups of people.

He Yuzhu got these bills this time, and he can use them to buy various imported foods and goods.

In fact, He Yuzhu had bought too many things and stored them when he was in Moscow, and he didn't value these goods.

When I got back to the office, I gave some to Lu Xiaomi and asked her to find time to buy them.

The full name of a machine repair shop should be a machinery repair and manufacturing shop. Its main business is to repair machinery, and it also manufactures some instruments and equipment.

He Yuzhu was actually not unfamiliar with this place, having been here many times before.

With the help of He Yuzhu, Cai Quanwu married Liang Ladi, a welder at a machine repair factory.

There are also Nan Yi, Ding Qiunan, and other familiar figures here.

When Director Zhu, He Yuzhu and several other factory managers arrived at the machine repair factory, the sign at the gate had been covered with red cloth.

The employees were also organized to welcome them outside the gate, and then invited to sit on the podium.

Among these leaders, the young He Yuzhu stands out.

Liang Ladi was very surprised and asked Xu Zhaodi beside her: "Why did He Yuzhu come here with Director Zhu?"

Xu Zhaodi said, "Sister, you can't just keep your head down and work every day, don't you know? Our factory will soon become a machinery factory, and He Yuzhu will be the deputy director of the machinery factory."

Of course he knew that the machine repair factory would be transferred to the machinery factory, but he didn't know that He Yuzhu was the deputy director of the machinery factory.

"No, when did he become the deputy factory director?"

"It has been a long time ago." Xu Zhaodi said with some pride.

Compared to the two people's happiness, there were two people at the scene looking at He Yuzhu with resentment.

That is Yi Wen Ding.

Yi Zhonghai had previously used his connections to send the two brothers to a machine repair factory, where they became workers.

When he saw He Yuzhu on the rostrum, he was of course filled with resentment.

He became a disabled person and divorced Xu Xiaomei.

His younger brother Yi Wensheng also went to jail.

From what the leader on the stage said, it seems that the machine repair shop will belong to the machinery factory in the future. Doesn't that mean that I will also become a worker under He Yuzhu's management?

Although summer has arrived, Yi Wendi feels a chill spreading throughout his body, as if he were in a world of ice and snow.

The entire machine repair factory could only welcome the decision made by their superiors.

Director Zhu also introduced that the employees of the machine repair shop will gradually learn how to make new products and will gradually move into new positions and become qualified operators.

Of course, the original repair tasks will be retained and adjusted gradually and slowly, and the temporary leadership team will not change.

This will maintain the stability of the auto repair shop and ensure a smooth handover.

Director Li, who was sitting next to He Yuzhu, was furious. When the leaders of the steel rolling mill heard that the machine repair plant was going to be transferred to the machinery plant, they were all very angry.

I called my boss to complain, but it didn't help.

Director Yang and his colleagues did not attend today's handover ceremony under some pretext, and finally sent Li Huaide, the director of the logistics department, to attend.

Li Huaide happened to be sitting next to He Yuzhu and said, "Congratulations, Director He, now the machinery factory can be under your name."

Although he said congratulations, there was a sour taste in his words.

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "You're welcome, Director Li. We are still very young and need to learn more from the steel rolling mill."

Li Huaide was so angry that he didn't know what to say. The steel mill has now repatriated nearly 2000 people.

Fewer than 7000 workers remain.

But now they have to transfer their own machine repair shop to the machinery factory.

This will save 1000 jobs and create a mature branch factory.

He Yuzhu's machinery factory had 3000 employees before. Although 500 of them were laid off, Director Zhu had already promised to add 2500 employees.

The total population size of such a collective machinery factory has reached 5000 people.

What was a small factory with only 500 employees a year ago has expanded to a scale of 5000 employees in the blink of an eye.

Director Li was very jealous.

If a little more effort had been made to turn the machinery factory into a subsidiary factory of the steel rolling mill, wouldn't the steel rolling mill have more than 1 employees?

During the meeting in the morning, several leaders expressed deep regret, but the facts were already before them and they could only reluctantly give up.

Transfer the machine repair shop to the machinery factory and watch it grow and develop.

After the lively handover ceremony, Yi Wensheng hurriedly left the machine repair shop and found Yi Zhonghai who had just come out of the steel rolling mill after get off work, and said:

"This is terrible. He Yuzhu has become the director of the machine repair factory. What should we do next?"
