Siheyuan: Pushing Huairu, the Prime Minister admits defeat

Chapter 245: The Calm after the Storm, the Dark Waves

"Ji Xiaotao? Crazy girl, why do I feel this name sounds familiar?"

When Zhang Yunzhen suddenly heard the name Ji Xiaotao, he suddenly remembered that when he followed the old leader in battles, the old leader seemed to have a daughter, whose name seemed to be Ji Xiaotao, Ji Xiaoguo, or Ji Xiaogua?

At that time, he was still a new recruit, serving as a guard for the old leader, folding quilts and washing clothes. Later, because of his skilled shooting skills and some merits, he was recommended by the old leader to attend military school, so he was specially selected to come to the capital.

In the blink of an eye, more than 10 years have passed.

With a skeptical attitude, Zhang Yunzhen cleared his throat and was about to push the door to meet Li Weijun.

Who would have thought that before I could finish my words, I would hear a roar from behind me: "Li Weijun, you are disloyal. I was lying in bed and unable to move, but you sneaked back to the capital without saying hello. Are you worthy of the fact that I went upstream with you along the Huangpu River under the scorching sun that day?"

what?

Ji Xiaotao's shout stunned Director Yang, Zhang Yunzhen and others who were watching the show nearby. What was going on?

Can't move at all?

Hiss! Is it really that powerful?

Ji Xiaotao seemed to realize that something was wrong. Her pretty face turned red, and she quickly added loudly, "I caught a cold and had a fever. I was lying on a hospital bed, unable to move. You didn't even say hello and just ran away. You are a Chen Shimei, a heartless man."

The girl's panting way of speaking made Director Yang, Zhang Yunzhen and others very disappointed.

However, with these fragmentary pieces of information, people have pieced together some of the truth about the matter, and the content worth pondering is.

Ji Xiaotao was able to go up the river with Li Weijun, even risking catching a cold. The relationship between them seems to be complicated.

Especially Director Yang, who knew Ji Xiaotao's identity, didn't even dare to breathe at this moment. Although he was the top boss in the steel rolling mill, as the helmsman, he always had the final say.

But compared with someone of Ji Xiaotao's level, it is still not enough.

Li Weijun is Li Huaide's confidant. Director Yang has never been interested in him before. In fact, Li Huaide has become very arrogant these days in order to keep this position.

Director Yang has already started to think of a way to take him down and give Li Huaide a good beating.

Now it’s good that Li Weijun is the real person who doesn’t show his face, and when he shows his face he’s not the real person, and Ji Xiaotao suddenly appears.

How can this be considered as a hammer to scare the tiger?

Even if Director Yang was extremely bold, he could only smile, nod and lower his head at this moment.

There is nothing embarrassing about this matter. If nothing else, at least the factory managers who tried every means to curry favor with Ji Xiaotao could be lined up from the city gate tower all the way to the Forbidden City.

His father, Ji Guochun, just opened his mouth and took out a big order, which was enough to make the steel mill's performance soar, and even double the employees' benefits.

Although unified purchase and sales are implemented these days, major steel mills are still responsible for their own profits and losses. After paying their due workload, the issue of employee welfare benefits is entirely up to the mills themselves.

This has led to many large factories scrambling to win orders, with the aim of exceeding targets and generating more revenue, so that everyone from factory managers to apprentices can receive better welfare benefits.

Instead of the traditional misunderstanding among the public, which is a one-size-fits-all approach, with guaranteed income regardless of drought or flood, everyone's welfare benefits and wage standards are the same regardless of how much profit each factory makes.

"Oh no, this person seems to be the old chief's daughter. The temper and tone of her voice, as well as the heroic spirit between her eyebrows, she is definitely the old chief's daughter."

Zhang Yunzhen swallowed with great difficulty and felt his throat dry.

The reason why Zhang Yunzhen did not have close contacts with Ji Guochun over the years and only sent a letter to express his consolation when he remembered him was certainly because of his special status. On the other hand, Ji Guochun's hot temper as an old leader was really deeply rooted in people's hearts.

It got to the point that Zhang Yunzhen's legs couldn't stop shaking whenever he thought of Ji Guochun.

Zhang Yunzhen felt mixed emotions as he recalled the days when he was strictly disciplined by his old leader Ji Guochun. Looking back now, those tough years have become the most precious wealth in his military career.

Ji Guochun, a well-known name in the army, was a source of both awe and gratitude to Zhang Yunzhen. The old commander's strictness towards him made him grow from a green recruit to an outstanding soldier. Every hard training and every life-and-death test forged his indomitable will.

"Brother Zhen, what are you thinking about?" Yi Lei's voice interrupted Zhang Yunzhen's thoughts.

Zhang Yunzhen came back to his senses and smiled slightly: "Nothing, I was just thinking that Miss Ji Xiaotao is really an interesting person."

Yi Lei nodded and quietly observed Director Yang and his group.

At this moment, Director Yang was accompanying Ji Xiaotao. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and carefully observed the subtle changes in Ji Xiaotao's expression, fearing that he would offend this old lady.

In his heart, he was secretly calculating. The appearance of Ji Xiaotao undoubtedly added a lot of variables to this originally simple gathering. He knew that he had to re-evaluate the value of Li Weijun and how to maintain his position and interests in this new situation.

"Director Yang, I heard that Li Weijun is just an ordinary projectionist in your factory."

Hearing this, Director Yang was embarrassed. He didn't expect Ji Xiaotao to show up at this time, and he didn't expect her to say such words in front of so many people. He felt a little embarrassed. After all, Li Weijun was very low-key at the beginning, so who would think of taking care of him?

"Comrade Ji, please listen to my explanation. I have my reasons for doing this..."

Director Yang tried to speak, but Ji Xiaotao waved her hand and interrupted him: "No need to explain, I know everything, it's a test."

Director Yang sighed helplessly. He knew that this matter might not be so easy to resolve.

Zhang Yunzhen was watching all this quietly. He knew that this small steel mill would probably cause a big disturbance because of Ji Xiaotao's appearance.
