The Great Era of Siheyuan

Coming to Beimo Factory again, Li Wenqiang took yesterday's payment and counted it casually.

"No problem, Director Liu. I have something I would like to ask you for help. I wonder if you can help me ask if anyone can get some large animals like piglets, lambs and calves. If there are any, I will pay for them. The price will definitely not disappoint him."

"Really? I'll ask for you later!"

Director Liu said casually.

"Then thank you first. It's ok, I'll leave first!"

Li Wenqiang said with a smile.

Looking at Li Wenqiang's departing back, Liu Qinghua's eyes flashed a gleam. Li Wenqiang actually wanted livestock cubs, what does this mean? This means that he must have more food in his hands.

He originally wanted to find someone to investigate him, but in the end he gave up. He couldn't get any food from his higher-ups, and reporting him would do him no good.

Li Wenqiang didn't expect that a mere word from him that came to mind would make Liu Qinghua have so many thoughts about him.

Li Wenqiang said the same thing to Li Huaide again when he arrived at the steel rolling mill.

"You want to raise pigs?"

After hearing this, Li Huaide looked at him with interest.

"That's right. I think our workers are working too hard. How can they always eat vegetarian food? We must give them more meat. Otherwise, they won't have the strength to work. Don't you agree? It doesn't matter if it's pigs, cows, or sheep, as long as it's large livestock! I wonder if the leaders have any connections?"

Li Wenqiang smiled. He believed that Li Huaide definitely had a way and that he also knew what he meant.

"Well, I'm going to call Director Cui of the meat processing plant to ask for you, but I don't think there's much hope, so you have to be mentally prepared."

Li Huaide did not reject his ideas and requests, but was very supportive. In his opinion, these animals would be used as supplies for him in the future, and the money he would keep would be money.

When I walked out of Li Huaide's office, I met a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit. He had a mature and steady appearance, three-dimensional facial features, and clear contours. He looked calm, composed, and approachable. He walked slowly towards the factory director's office.

Seeing each other, the two smiled at each other and nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.

This person is Director Yang of the steel mill. He probably thinks he is an outsider! Actually, it is not a big deal if he thinks so. He is just holding a temporary position.

At this point, Li Wenqiang realized that apart from starting work, he had never really visited the steel mill. Today was a good opportunity for him to take a look around.

I was thinking about something and just as I turned the corner at the bottom of the building, I ran into a familiar figure.

"Ouch! Damn it!"

Xu Damao staggered after being knocked down by him and was about to fall down. Li Wenqiang reacted and grabbed him by the collar.

"Xu Damao, are you okay?"

Li Wenqiang looked at him curiously.

"Damn it! How come you walk without making any sound? I almost fell down just now. I was so scared!"

Xu Damao patted his chest in shock. It would be terrible if he fell down the stairs. He might end up lying here.

"What have you been up to these past few days? Didn't you agree to take me around the countryside?"

This guy has been missing since he went to work a few days ago, and I don’t know where he went. He didn’t even ask me for the medicinal wine he promised to give to Li Huaide.

"Don't mention it. You can never guess what I'm doing! This matter must be kept secret. The leader said that I must not tell anyone casually. Forget it, it's useless to tell you. I'm leaving first!"

Xu Damao was about to leave as he said this, but after taking only two steps he came to his senses.

"That's not right. Why are you here? Did Director Li come to you to buy goods?"

Xu Damao looked at him suspiciously.

"What do you mean by that look? He hasn't asked me for the goods yet, but if you don't pay him, I'm not sure what will happen."

Li Wenqiang looked at him with a suspicious look and said speechlessly.

"Then why are you here?"

Hearing that he was not trying to steal his performance, Xu Damao breathed a sigh of relief. He earned three yuan in commission from a bottle of wine, and it couldn't be lost for no reason.

"I'm a buyer for a steel mill now. Do you think I can be here?"

Li Wenqiang said with a smile.

"You? A buyer?"

When Xu Damao heard this, his eyes almost popped out. A purchasing agent makes much more money than a projectionist, and it is also easier and more free than his job. He doesn't have to carry dozens of kilograms of projection equipment around. It is a really good job!

"What? Not like?"

Seeing his suspicious look, Li Wenqiang rolled his eyes. He only earned a few thousand yuan a day, so what was there to be demanded by a purchasing agent?

"That's not the case, but how did you become a buyer out of nowhere? Don't we sell that wine?"

Xu Damao asked in a low voice.

"Who said we won't sell anymore? Not only will we sell, we will sell more!"

Li Wenqiang emphasized.

"Then why do you work as a buyer? A bottle of wine costs dozens of dollars. No matter how well you do as a buyer, you can only earn the salary of two bottles of wine. Is it necessary?"

Xu Damao asked doubtfully.

"You know nothing. If you have something to do, just leave immediately and don't block my way!"

Li Wenqiang pushed him aside impatiently. This guy hasn't completed two sales in such a long time, but he is quite gossipy.

"Hey, let's go to the cafeteria to eat together later and have a good chat!"

Xu Damao shouted loudly in the direction where Li Wenqiang left.

"No time, eat it yourself!"

Li Wenqiang's voice came from downstairs.

After leaving Xu Damao, Li Wenqiang continued to wander around the steel mill. Looking at the huge factory area, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this steel mill is indeed a large factory in this area, and its scale is really amazing.

However, the environment was rather disappointing. The loud noise of metal collision and the pungent smell of smoke made him want to go home before he even got close. Near the door of the workshop, a heat wave of 30 to 40 degrees came directly towards him, as if there was a furnace inside.

As he walked, Li Wenqiang came to the door of a workshop. Inside, machines were roaring and workers were busy working.

He stood at the door and watched for a while. He found that all the workers had yellow complexions and looked listless. He immediately gave up the idea of ​​going in.

It is really hard to work in such a working environment. Li Wenqiang originally wanted to go in and see Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, but now he thinks better of it.

Looking at the time, Li Wenqiang realized that it was just the right time to have lunch at the tavern, so he was about to leave.

"Hey! The one in front, that's Li Wenqiang, right? Stop right there!"

Just as he was about to leave, a familiar voice came from the side. Li Wenqiang turned around and saw that it was Wang Dawei.

"Is something wrong?"

Hearing his unfriendly tone, Li Wenqiang raised his eyebrows.

"Are you okay? You're my subordinate, so why don't you come to me every day to report in? Don't you know you have to clock in every day? I think you don't want to do this anymore?"

Wang Dawei said aggressively.

Ever since something was lost in the warehouse last time he was employed, he was given a serious warning and fined two months' salary, which was enough to buy half a pork.

Unable to find any clues, he could only blame the matter on others. It just so happened that Li Wenqiang was the first person to discover it, so naturally he hated him.

"Didn't Director Li tell you?"

Li Wenqiang asked back.

"say what?"

Wang Dawei asked in confusion.

"If you don't know, go ask him!"

Li Wenqiang left after he finished speaking. He had basically confirmed that this guy was the scapegoat that Li Huaide was going to throw out when the time came. He was totally stupid.

"Come back here, don't do this after you leave today!"

Behind him, Wang Dawei's angry voice was still ringing.
