Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

Shi Guijun was just a liaison officer. His current position was only a staff officer in the headquarters. He had neither administrative power nor military command power, so after receiving the news, he just reported.

After listening to the report, Commander Ma Daohao also reported to his superiors. The leaders in charge said that they could investigate the deduction of money, but they could not allow a large number of people to leave, so they did not fully agree with Zhang Dabao's words.

Zhang Dabao laughed when he heard Shi Guijun's feedback. He immediately made several phone calls and stopped all domestic scientific research, cultural, import and export trade businesses except for the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill and Red Star Embroidery.

"What? The grain import has been suspended? The ship has returned to Hong Kong. What's the reason? No grain? Bullshit. Without food, what are they sending the ship out for?" A director of the Ministry of Trade cursed upon hearing his subordinate's explanation.

The country exported a large amount of materials through Hong Kong in exchange for foreign exchange. Now that all business has stopped, many units are at a loss. The explanation given by Hong Kong is that there are special reasons, but no one knows why it is special.

All these things fermented within a day, and Minister Zheng of the Ministry of Trade was overwhelmed. Why did the trade that was originally going well fail? Find out the reason.

The cause is naturally unknown, and all explanations are special reasons.

If it is so special, why didn't the orders from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill and the Embroidery Factory stop? Some people found the problem.

Minister Zheng and Li Huaide were not familiar with each other, so he asked Qiao Baozhong, the former second-in-command of the Ministry of Trade and now the top leader of the Ministry of Transport, to help ask. He and Qiao Baozhong were from the same corps during the war years, so they had some friendship.

"Li Huaide was the only one who didn't stop?" Qiao Baozhong also felt that something was wrong.

So he didn't make a phone call, but went directly to the Red Star Steel Mill. Of course, Shi Guijun had already come. He felt that this matter was related to the call he made to Hong Kong, so after hearing the news, he went directly to the Red Star Steel Mill.

"Old Shi, what does this have to do with me? Can I control it?" Li Huaide said dissatisfiedly to Shi Guijun.

"I didn't ask you to worry about it. I just asked you to make a phone call and ask," said Shi Guijun.

"What am I asking? How should I ask? Lao Shi, I feel like there's something wrong with you guys? If the comrades want their wives and children to go over, you just let them go, why don't you let them go? Do we need people to farm the land? Or do you want to keep them as hostages?" Li Huaide was no longer polite to Shi Guijun. It wasn't a big deal in the first place, but it has become like this. Even if the orders are restored, can the relationship go back to what it was before?

They say a broken mirror can be mended, but how can it be mended? Is there no crack left inside? Once there is the first crack in the heart, there will be a second and a third one. This is the beginning of a qualitative change.

"Huaide, is this something I can decide on?" Shi Guijun said.

"If you can't be the boss, let the one who is in charge ask. Why are you making a fuss? Is this within your job scope? You are only responsible for communication. Just make it clear what your superiors ask you to say," Li Huaide said dissatisfiedly.

"But it has a great impact on us," said Shi Guijun.

"That's not your fault. Some people always think they are the sun and everyone revolves around them, but what's the truth?" Li Huaide was now being reserved and didn't feel comfortable cursing.

"Li Huaide, I heard you talking nonsense from far away." Qiao Baozhong came.

"Minister Qiao is here? Is there something?" Li Huaide stood up to show his respect for his leader, and Shi Guijun also stood up.

"Huide, do you think this matter has anything to do with Da Biao?" asked Qiao Baozhong.

"Minister Qiao, you asked the wrong person. I don't know. Zhang Dabao is no longer the director of our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill's Hong Kong Office. He has also resigned from his current position in writing. He has no time to return to the factory to work. We have also reported to the Metallurgical Bureau, and the leaders have approved it," said Li Huaide.

"Huaide, you are a senior official of the Yin family. You should know how important foreign exchange is to us." Qiao Baozhong was very dissatisfied with Li Huaide's attitude.

"Minister Qiao, I'm just the director of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. Our unit is still earning foreign exchange for the country without any delay. In addition, our embroidery factory received the payment for the goods this morning." Li Huaide said.

Qiao Baozhong was a little angry. He didn't like his wife's cousin very much. He always felt that Li Huaide was an opportunist.

"Huaide, can you ask over there about the status of the orders from other units here?" Qiao Baozhong asked Li Huaide while holding his breath.

"Minister Qiao, I have no way to ask. Our unit's orders are fine now. This should be the responsibility of the Ministry of Foreign Trade. I am the director of a steel mill, and it is not good for me to stretch my hands too far." Li Huaide rejected Qiao Baozhong without any hesitation.

Qiao Baozhong was furious. He didn't expect that Li Huaide didn't give him any face today. He didn't say anything else, walked out of Li Huaide's office and returned to the Ministry of Transport.

"Huaide, aren't you and Minister Qiao a relative?" Shi Guijun asked Li Huaide after Qiao Baozhong left.

"Yes, his wife is my cousin. But that doesn't mean I have to listen to him in everything, right? I will only listen to him if he is right. Would I embarrass myself with him when something doesn't make sense? Besides, he is a high-ranking official now. How could he look down on such a poor relative?" Li Huaide was also dissatisfied with Qiao Baozhong.

Qiao Baozhong returned to the office and thought about it. He definitely had to call Zhang Dabiao. However, because of Li Huaide's incident last time, there was a rift between him and him. After making this call, he was also worried that the rift would deepen. Zhang Dabiao was a person with his own ideas and a strong sense of independence. He would not listen to other people's advice and it would be useless to call him.

Qiao Baozhong was thinking about it, but the pressure from the Ministry of Trade has been very high. Now the top management has already known that orders from Hong Kong have been suspended.

This matter is neither big nor small. The leaders have survived many difficult times and did not take this matter to heart. But now that we know about it, we have to ask why. Besides, who doesn’t want to live a good life? Who doesn’t want to have more spare money?

So Shi Guijun and Li Huaide were called to the leader, who found out the reason behind the incident.

"It's just a trivial matter. Why can't you put yourself in the right position? Zhang Dabao is no longer the vice chairman of the labor union of the steel rolling mill. Why do you always treat him like a child?" The leader was also a little unhappy.

Li Huaide and Shi Guijun didn't dare to speak in such occasions, so they could only listen.

"Comrade Shi Guijun, you are the liaison officer. You are responsible for arranging the affairs of these family members. Don't leave out anyone on the list. If you cannot go, you must write down the reasons clearly. In everything, look for your own problems first, and correct yourself before correcting others." The leader's words were powerful and served as a warning to the leaders in charge. This is a manifestation of immaturity.
