Siheyuan: Pushing Huairu, the Prime Minister admits defeat

Ma Xuewu regarded Li Weijun as a cash cow, so he naturally did not dare to neglect him. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Brother Weijun, don't worry about this. We will definitely let you vent your anger. It just so happens that Ma Xueli's production team will go to Beijing to collect manure in the next two days. With this address, we will make sure he is well disciplined."

As he spoke, he asked the accountant to call the production team leader Ma Xueli and make sure that this matter was implemented.

"Okay, I feel relieved after hearing what Secretary Ma said. Also, remember that we are all civilized people. Just make sure we don't cause any trouble. If we really cause trouble, try to be clean and deal with it properly."

"Don't worry about this. Let alone the slightest clue, we can definitely trace it perfectly. No matter what happens, it has nothing to do with you."

Li Weijun was very satisfied to see that Ma Xuewu agreed so promptly. After hanging up the phone, he went to find Xu Damao to instruct him on some screening tasks.

The business trip to Shanghai to purchase internal reference films would take at least half a month at the fastest, and at least 20 to 30 days at the latest. If the steel mill had a screening task during this period, no one would be left without responsibility.

Propaganda Department, in the utility room.

Xu Damao was packing up tools such as a shovel and a broom, preparing to go and unclog the toilet, while complaining loudly.

After he failed in the election for the projectionist position, it was only after Xu Wanjun interceded for him in front of Li Huaide that Xu Damao was reluctantly allowed to continue staying in the Propaganda Department to do odd jobs.

Normally, I have to sweep and mop the floor, serve tea and water, or even run errands to buy some things. In short, I am here when I am asked to and go when I am called.

If he hadn't been thinking about the fact that the steel rolling mill would be distributing housing soon, his father Xu Fugui would have a good chance of getting a quota due to his seniority.

Xu Damao had forced his father to retire early so that he could take over. He was exhausted and tired every day. It was not as comfortable as before when he sat in the office serving tea, drinking water and reading newspapers.

"That toilet is not even unblocked. Standing in it for a while makes me dizzy and dazed. There's a lot of stuff bubbling out. It's hard to unblock it in the middle of summer. I don't know why their butts are so big."

Xu Damao took out a wooden shovel from the utility room with great effort, gestured for a while, and then prepared to go and unclog the toilet with a worried look on his face.

"Xu Damao, I just discussed with Director Li that you will be in charge of the movie screenings for the next period of time."

Just at this moment, Li Weijun's voice came from behind.

Xu Damao was so frightened that he shuddered instantly. After he reacted, his ecstasy was beyond words.

"What? Director Li agreed to let me show movies, and I'm the projectionist. I told you, Director Li is a good man, how could he bear to see me suffer?"

Seeing Xu Damao's extremely excited look, Li Weijun couldn't bear to expose him for a moment.

After sighing, he said softly, "I'm just the projectionist for this period of time. I have to go on a business trip to Shanghai, so I may not be able to show movies for a while. If there is anything in the publicity department, I will need your help."

"Ah? You mean it's just an acting position, for just this period of time? It's just a waste of time."

When Xu Damao heard this, his heart instantly turned cold. He even thought of Yang Naiwu and Xiao Baicai whom he had just heard about a few days ago. He was just about to snort in rejection.

But suddenly I thought that this might be a good opportunity.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Li Weijun was too busy to take care of him, I took the initiative to strike back, move around more and make Director Li realize my usefulness.

Not to mention that his father is a cinema projectionist. With his qualifications, if he builds up his connections, he might be able to firmly grasp the position of projectionist.

Xu Damao instantly felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he nodded hurriedly.

"It's okay. Shanghai is a big city. It's not easy to get a chance to go to Shanghai and see the world. It's always good to walk around more and broaden your horizons. Don't worry about the steel mill. I'll take care of it here."

He was quite attentive in explaining to Li Weijun the things he should pay attention to when visiting a big city like Shanghai, so that he wouldn't end up like Granny Liu when she visited the Grand View Garden, which was both embarrassing and awkward.

"Forget it, Xu Damao. You should save your energy so that you won't have to work so hard when you clean the toilet later."

Li Weijun rolled his eyes, thinking back to his previous life, he had been to all the megacities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and was accustomed to the steel and concrete, bright lights, debauchery and extravagant life.

Xu Damao's own experiences and observations of Shanghai came from his father Xu Fugui. He heard the information from others and even boasted about it to himself.

Xu Damao was not happy about the cold reception, but he still smiled and complimented her: "You are right, you are right. What time is the train ticket for the factory? Do you want me to take a few colleagues from the Propaganda Department to go there?"

I have to say that in terms of his cunning, thick-skinned, black-hearted, and adaptable nature, Xu Damao can really be ranked among the best in the Siheyuan.

Li Weijun knew his character well and was too lazy to waste time. After explaining some work matters that needed attention, he went straight to the Personnel Department to get paper procedures. In addition to these, he also had to go to the logistics director to ask for train tickets and some national food coupons.

If you were going on a long journey these days, you either had to carry your own food or exchange the national food coupons in advance to avoid having trouble finding a place to eat.

"Comrade Li Weijun, here are the train tickets and food coupons you need. Deputy Director Li has said that there is no limit on the amount of the invoice. Don't put yourself in a difficult position. The train will be the early train carrying steel at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning. You can take another train to Shanghai then. You have worked hard during this period."

Sun Debao, who was in charge of logistics, stuffed these things into Li Weijun's hands with a smile, and at the same time did not forget to stuff a few bills into Li Weijun's sleeves.

Li Weijun took a closer look and found that it was a Shanghai brand big steel watch and chocolate with liquor filling. These things were in great demand in Beijing, especially the Shanghai brand big steel watch. The department store was crowded every day and people were scrambling to get a rare item. Unless you were lucky, there was no place to get a watch even with a ticket.

"Comrade Weijun, my son is getting old now. We are talking about marriage, but the girl insists on having a steel watch and a bicycle. I have an idea for a bicycle, a big steel watch with a Shanghai brand. Please bear with it and take good care of it. When you return triumphantly, you will definitely have to give him a welcome and a feast."

Seeing that the logistics director wanted to ask him for help, and considering that he would have to deal with the canteen's logistics frequently in the future and would be able to do things more smoothly, Li Weijun readily agreed.

As for train tickets, the steel mill itself has railroad tracks and even its own railway system to facilitate the transportation of industrial products.

It can directly connect to important transportation hubs such as Beijing Railway Station, so there is no need to worry about crowds and noisy situations. The only disadvantage may be that it is a bit troublesome to reverse back and forth.
