Comfortable life in Siheyuan

On the first day of work after the New Year, Liu Qingshan came to the office early, filled a basin with hot water, and cleaned the office carefully.

Several people from the technical department came over to chat from time to time. Today's work was relatively easy and there were not many tasks.

Just when Liu Qingshan thought that today would pass uneventfully, several people suddenly walked into the office, and the one walking in front was Director Yang.

"Xiao Liu, it looks like you have to go out again. I remember you gave me a report about top-blown oxygen converters a few years ago. I have submitted it to the department, and your superiors have decided to send you to participate in the research and development of this technology. You should go home quickly and pack your luggage!" Director Yang said with some emotion in his tone.

Liu Qingshan was shocked: "Are we leaving now? Why are we in such a hurry?"

"That's right, Comrade Liu Qingshan. Actually, we originally planned to transfer you there before the New Year, but considering the Spring Festival holiday and the fact that you were unable to go home for the New Year last year, it has been delayed until now. We rushed here to inform you early this morning. Hurry up and go back to pack your luggage!" A dark-skinned middle-aged man interrupted with a smile.

Liu Qingshan smiled and continued to ask: "So where exactly should I go? How long will I need to stay this time?"

"I can't tell you the exact location at the moment, but you'll know once you arrive at your destination." The other party's answer was flawless.

Seeing this scene, Liu Qingshan knew he couldn't delay any longer. He hurried downstairs, got on his bicycle, pedaled hard, and sped towards home.

After returning home, he hurried into the room, opened the closet, picked out a few simple clothes and stuffed them into his backpack. Then, he went to the living room to find his eldest brother, briefly explained the family affairs to him, and told his eldest brother that he was going on a business trip and asked him to help tell his parents and Xiaoyu.

After saying goodbye to his elder brother, Liu Qingshan packed his bag without hesitation, got on his bicycle again, and drove out of the house. His figure gradually went farther and farther, disappearing at the end of the road in the distance...

After getting in the car, they drove straight out of the steel mill. Liu Qingshan didn't notice that when he was leaving the factory, someone just happened to enter the steel mill.

After speeding along the road for more than an hour, the vehicle finally arrived at the destination. When Liu Qingshan got off the car, he realized that he had arrived at the Shijingshan Steel Plant.

As soon as he entered the factory, Liu Qingshan was attracted by the scene in front of him. He saw a group of technicians gathered around a huge iron furnace, discussing something enthusiastically. They looked focused, and seemed to be full of expectations and curiosity about the big iron furnace.

Liu Qingshan was deeply attracted by this scene and could not help but walk closer to observe. Just as he was watching intently, he suddenly heard someone shouting, "Hello, you must be Comrade Liu Qingshan! I am the person in charge of this project. My last name is Cai, you can call me Engineer Cai."

Liu Qingshan turned around and saw a middle-aged man walking towards him. The two men smiled and greeted each other and shook hands in a friendly manner.

Liu Qingshan said excitedly: "Hello, Engineer Cai! I didn't expect that you have already started research in this field. I feel very honored to have the opportunity to participate in it."

Engineer Cai responded enthusiastically: "Yes, in recent years, with the rapid development of the national economy, the demand for steel has been growing. We borrowed some advanced concepts from the authoritative foreign journal "Metallurgy Magazine" and began to try related experiments independently.

We have also carefully studied the report you submitted earlier and found that the ideas in it have indeed given us a lot of inspiration. Therefore, I specifically asked my superiors to transfer you here, hoping that we can work together to promote greater breakthroughs in this research. "

After hearing what Engineer Cai said, Liu Qingshan felt a warm current in his heart. He knew that this transfer was not only a recognition of his personal ability, but also a precious opportunity for him to contribute to the development of the country's industry. He secretly made up his mind to live up to everyone's expectations and devote himself to the work with all his strength.

"It was only after in-depth investigation and analysis that I realized that today's steel production has become a bottleneck restricting the speed of our economic development! Therefore, I specially wrote this report, hoping to attract everyone's attention." Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

"Well, now that we are here, we will definitely not be idle. Xiao Li, take Engineer Liu to settle down first, and then take him to the meeting room. Later, we will all go to the meeting room to hold a meeting and discuss this issue together." Engineer Cai smiled slightly and instructed Xiao Li in a casual tone.

"I got it, Engineer Cai! I will ensure that the task is completed!" Xiao Li answered promptly and neatly.

……

The office of Deputy Director Liu of the steel rolling mill was quiet.

"Boom! Boom!"

A knock on the door broke the silence.

"Please come in!"

With a response, Cui Dake pushed open the door with a bright smile on his face and walked in with big strides.

"Director Liu, I specially brought you some game from the countryside for you to try, and I also wanted to ask you about my job." Cui Dake smiled flatteringly, and the smile on his face seemed to be able to squeeze water out.

Liu Feng looked up and was not surprised to see the person coming. The corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Wow! You came quite early today. Are you worried that I won't arrange work for you?"

"Nothing like that. I was just bored at home, so I came to see you early." Cui Dake quickly waved his hands to explain, and at the same time moved forward with a playful smile.

"Okay, in that case, I have two options for you to consider. The first is a temporary worker position in the forging workshop of the steel rolling mill. If you perform well in your future work, you can be transferred to a regular employee. The second is that you will need to wait for a while. In about a month, there will be an apprentice vacancy in the new factory, which can be assigned to you. What do you think?" Liu Feng stated his plan in a steady tone and slowly.

After listening to Director Liu's words, Cui Dake couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He was secretly calculating in his mind. On the one hand, he was afraid that something might happen if he delayed for too long. On the other hand, he was worried that he would not be able to get a permanent job as a blacksmith. At this moment, he was in a dilemma. For a moment, he was a little hesitant and in a dilemma.

After some careful consideration, Cui Dake thought to himself: "Forget it, let's get a job first! After all, the position in the new factory behind is not yet determined, and the factory has not been built yet! The most important thing now is to find a job and settle down."

So he raised his head, looked at Director Liu firmly, and said sincerely: "Director Liu, I think it would be better for me to go to the forging workshop. This way, you don't have to wait for me to make a decision, and you can arrange a job for me earlier."

Hearing Cui Dake say this, Director Liu nodded, but at the same time he also did not forget to give him a shot of prevention: "Okay, since you have chosen to go to the forging workshop, then I will start to make arrangements. But I have to say this in advance, you must not come to me to regret it when the time comes!"

He knew that this person was a bit thick-skinned. If he went back on his word and came to bother me again, it would be difficult to deal with! Thinking of this, Director Liu deliberately glanced at Cui Dake, as if he wanted to see some clues from his face.
