Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Li Huaide's old face was full of smiles, mixed with a sense of relief. Today, he was really exhausted by the supplies. With these 100 kilograms of pork, he, the logistics director, could also report to the department. Li Huaide thought about it and subconsciously asked, "Zhu Zi, do you have any other channels to get food?"

He Yuzhu thought about it. There were quite a lot of things in his space farm, but although there were a lot of things in it, the source of the things was a very difficult problem to solve. Once someone with ulterior motives knew about it, it would be easy for him to deal with it, but what about his wife and sister? He Yuzhu was in a dilemma. He didn't know whether he should help or just stay in the factory quietly.

Li Huaide looked at He Yuzhu who was thinking, and after thinking for a while he said, "Zhuzi, if you are really capable, you have to help our Red Star Steel Mill. The work at our Red Star Steel Mill can be said to be very tiring. Although the comrades in the purchasing department work relatively hard, the city of Beijing is so small, and there are hundreds of factories in the city. Our Red Star Steel Mill can't get anything at all."

Wu Yulai sighed. As the canteen director, he had the most say. After thinking for a while, he said, "Alas, every time I see those workers who are so hungry and skinny, I feel very derelict in my duty as the canteen director, Zhuzi. I believe you have also heard from Director Xiao that I will be transferred from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill soon. The next canteen director will be you. If you don't make any achievements, even if Director Xiao promotes you to the position of canteen director, do you think you can keep it stable?"

He Yuzhu felt that being an official or not didn't matter, but he thought that if he was the canteen director, it would be easier for him to do anything in the future. This position was neither too big nor too small, so others would think twice before dealing with him in the future. He Yuzhu thought about it, and whispered to the two of them, "There are channels for this stuff, but where did it come from? Of course, these things of ours were not stolen or robbed, but secretly grown by farmers who couldn't make a living."

Seeing the two were very surprised, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Don't be too nervous, I have a brother who does this kind of business. This person's ability can be said to be very strong. He buys low prices and sells high prices. Isn't there a crime of speculation now? My friend can be said to be very scared, and he is very cautious in doing things. You see..."

Li Huaide thought for a while and said, "I didn't expect you to know such a person. Such a person is really a treasure now." He Yuzhu was a little puzzled. Shouldn't such a person be the target of attack in this era? Just now, he made up such a person out of nothing just to find a reasonable source for the supplies in his hands. But it was just reasonable because this excuse was illegal in this era.

Wu Yulai smiled and shook his head and said, "You kid, you usually look very smart, but now you are so stupid. Do you think the leaders of other factories don't have such channels? Are the materials of those people really legal and compliant? According to what you said, these materials of yours are grown by others with great effort, and your friend just wants to make a little profit from the price difference. This is actually nothing. I have seen the kind of food that really came from unknown sources before."

Li Huaide coughed and said, "Old Wu, you talk too much. Some things we just need to understand, Zhuzi, don't worry. These things are customary. As long as your friends can transport the grain to Sijiu City, oh no, as long as your friends can transport the grain even outside Sijiu City, the grain comes from our Red Star Steel Mill. Our Red Star Steel Mill has worked hard to purchase it from other places. Do you understand what I am saying?"

He Yuzhu nodded quickly. If he couldn't understand these words, he would have lived in vain. Li Huaide smiled and said, "Boy, I am ten years older than you, so I will tell you something from my heart. Old Wu is not an outsider. Leaders sometimes don't care where your things come from, even if you stole or robbed them. If you can transport the materials to the city, I will have a political achievement, and you will also benefit. This is a win-win outcome."

He Yuzhu nodded, not quite understanding, but in fact he knew it clearly in his heart. This was an era of extreme material scarcity, and 100 kilograms of pork could be exchanged for a job no matter where. He was just pretending to be stupid just now. If he pretended to be smart, Li Huaide would be wary of him.

Because no leader likes smart subordinates, He Yuzhu had to show the feeling of an ordinary person who was neither smart nor stupid. In this way, these leaders would use him with peace of mind. Having solved a major problem that bothered him, Li Huaide was in a very good mood. After chatting with the two, Li Huaide smiled and said to Wu Yu, "Congratulations, Old Wu, you have been promoted. Although the machine repair factory is not as good as our steel rolling mill, it is still a factory. Congratulations to the deputy director of the machine repair factory."

Wu Yulai was in a very good mood. He thought he could work in this canteen director position until retirement, but he didn't expect to be promoted at such an old age. Although it was just a small factory, he was still a deputy factory director. Although the deputy factory director was only one level lower than the director, the two were not the same. The deputy factory director had much more power than the director, and the deputy factory director was also an administrative cadre.

Wu Yulai's face also looked very good. He scratched his head and said with a smile, "It is thanks to the recommendation of the leaders, otherwise there would be no chance for me to be promoted. I really admire Zhuzi, a canteen director who is less than 20 years old. I am quite envious of him. I am almost old, I am so envious."

He Yuzhu smiled awkwardly and said, "I also benefited from the help of the two factory directors, otherwise I would not have such great ability. When the time comes, I would like to invite Director Wu and Director Li to have a good meal together and exchange feelings, right?" Li Huaide and Wu Yulai would naturally be more than happy to do so, especially Wu Yulai, who was about to leave the steel mill and wanted to establish a good relationship with He Yuzhu.
