Chapter 345: Deputy Director Li who eats Coptis chinensis

He would not carry a small table to the door to eat in such a cold weather. Xu Damao, who was showing off, was also jealous and was not as arrogant as before.

The opportunity that Wang Gensheng had been waiting for in the steel rolling mill finally came.

It was the twice-monthly time for the canteen managers to go to the small warehouse to get meat, but the supply was seriously insufficient.

For this meal for more than 1 workers, at least kilograms of pork are needed, and taels of pork should be given equally to each worker to increase nutrition and improve their lives.

But this time something went wrong.

Ever since Wang Gensheng stepped down as purchasing chief, the factory’s own meat purchases, which used to be a small improvement in meat supply once a week, have been almost gone due to the purchasing department’s ineffectiveness and failure to complete meat purchasing tasks.

These major improvements twice a month are hard targets set by the state. All plans have been signed and confirmed by the factory director, and the menu is there.

But there was no meat in the small warehouse, and their lives could not be improved. They could not give a convincing reason, so the workers went on strike and made trouble, which was a big deal.

If someone else, out of emotion, smashes the cafeteria, it will be even more difficult to deal with.

Wang Gensheng immediately informed Deputy Director Zhao of the news. Deputy Director Zhao also realized the seriousness of the matter, and then went to Director Yang to find a solution.

When he heard that there was no meat in the small warehouse, Deputy Director Li did not come to report or make a statement in advance, so he was left out for a while. Director Yang was so angry that his face turned blue and he slammed the table on the spot.

"Notify everyone to hold an emergency meeting. Invite the deputy factory directors in the factory. In particular, Deputy Factory Director Li must be present, as well as the newly appointed Chief Yao of the Purchasing Department and Deputy Director Liu of the Logistics Department."

This was an emergency meeting, chaired by Director Yang. Six of the seven deputy directors of the steel rolling mill attended. Deputy Director Li, the director in charge of logistics, Deputy Director Liu Ge, and Director Da Yao of the Purchasing Department became public enemies.

Director Yang had a blank expression on his face. He raised his hand and knocked on the table with his teacup.

"We held an emergency meeting today because something particularly serious has happened. Some comrades have made serious mistakes in their work, which will lead to unexpected serious accidents. We need to hold a meeting to discuss solutions and punishment plans. Next, Director Wang from the cafeteria will come and tell everyone what happened."

When Wang Gensheng heard his name being called, he stood up, looked up and nodded to the deputy factory directors present as a greeting.

Then he started from the beginning: "Today is a ministry regulation. In our large steel plant, we have two life improvement days every month. The predetermined menu is boiled pork slices. We need to provide meals for all the employees in the factory. We need 2 catties of cabbage and 2400 catties of pork..."

"This morning, I went to the small warehouse to collect supplies. There were only 60 kilograms of old bacon left in the small warehouse, and there was no fresh pork at all. A good cook cannot cook without rice. What should I do for this meal? Please give me some advice from the purchasing department of our factory."

According to the predetermined script, Deputy Director Zhao first pretended to frown and asked the question.

"Director Wang, the factory doesn't have enough pork in stock. As the canteen director, didn't you notice this in advance?"

Wang Gensheng nodded to Director Yang and Deputy Director Zhao and said apologetically:

"I had discovered it before, and I also made a written report and handed it to my immediate superior, Deputy Factory Director Li, who was in charge of logistics. The reply I got was: wait a moment, the purchasing department is working on it. To this day, the pork I need has not arrived yet."

Deputy Director Li was so angry that he gritted his teeth when he saw Wang Gensheng and Deputy Director Zhao asking and answering each other.

In this way, Wang Gensheng pushed most of his responsibilities away and put Deputy Director Li and his three subordinates under the spotlight.

Director Yang slammed the table, turned around and asked, "Deputy Director Li, when will our factory's quota of 2400 kilograms of pork arrive? Many workers in the factory are waiting to be cooked."

Deputy Director Li raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his temples and looked at Deputy Director Brother Liu who was sitting opposite him.

Brother Liu raised his head and answered for Deputy Director Li:

"Director Yang, the meat processing plant said that there was a cold snap a while ago. Because the weather was too cold, a large number of piglets in the pig farm were frozen to death. It was also before the Chinese New Year, and a batch of adult pigs were slaughtered in a rush to ensure the New Year's holiday. At the moment, there were not so many pigs to sell, and the pork supply was seriously insufficient. The approval for our factory to reduce the amount by half, and we need to purchase the remaining allocation ourselves."

"Give me half? That can be used as an emergency measure and explained to the workers. What about the meat?"

"Meat, still in line, it's not our turn at the steel mill yet."

Director Yang knows a little bit about this and there are some reasons for this, but what is the inside story... ?

Things have come to this point, it is impossible to just let it go. Since there was a mistake in the work, Deputy Director Li must pay something for it.

"Deputy Director Li, since the public-private partnership in 55, it has been eleven years now, and this is not the first time that such a thing has happened. This has never happened in our steel plant before."

"At most, we will halve the meat supply for everyone and replenish it later. Why is there no reserve in the small warehouse today?"

"Yes, even if we couldn't give two taels in previous years, we could give each person one tael on the day when the food was improved. Then, in the next two weeks, if there were small improvements every week, we could evenly make up the one tael."

"That's right. When Director Wang was in office, plus the purchase department had some income, each worker could make three taels of meat this month. But now there is no meat. What the hell is going on?"

After Deputy Factory Director Liu exchanged glances with Wang Gensheng, he also stood up and said:

"It's been nearly two months since we started working after the Chinese New Year, and the quality of our food has been getting worse and worse. Where did the meat go? Even so, there is still a shortage of meat. I really don't know what your purchasing department is doing?"

"Now, the Logistics and Procurement Department can't even procure the basic quotas given by the state? Deputy Director Li has a lot of responsibility."

"This, this."

Deputy Director Li got angry when he talked about this. After the Chinese New Year, he received a notice from the meat processing plant saying that the supply target would be reduced by half. Of course, Deputy Director Li was also active in treating everyone.

Invite the person in charge of the meat processing plant to visit the steel rolling mill to discuss how to solve this problem.

Unfortunately, without Chef He at the steel rolling mill, the food of the leaders of the meat processing plant was tasteless. They thought that Deputy Director Li did not value them and did not arrange a proper chef to entertain them, so they overturned the table on the spot.
