The Great Era of Siheyuan

"Someone will replenish the food in the warehouse tonight. There will be no stock for the next few days, but it should be enough for you. I will transfer the goods to you when I come back in a few days! Do you have any other tickets? Leader, I am going to the countryside for the steel mill. Can't you support me a little?"

Li Wenqiang said jokingly, picking up a cloth bag on the ground and throwing it on his back. The cash of more than 20,000 yuan weighed several kilograms. It was not very heavy, but it felt really good to hold a large amount of cash.

I don’t know if the food and villa in the space will explode when I die one day. It would be fun then.

"You really are, haha! Okay, this is the reward for outstanding employees in the factory next month. They are all industrial coupons and cloth coupons. You can see for yourself what they are. There are also some food coupons, not much, only about 100 kilograms, but I don't think you can use them!"

Li Huaide didn't mind after hearing his rogue words. The daily shipment volume increased several times in the past two days, which was enough for him to worship Li Wenqiang like the God of Wealth.

The God of Wealth wants to ask you for something, do you have any objections? I took out a stack of bills from the drawer and threw them to him.

Li Wenqiang took it casually and put it into his pocket, expressing his "loyalty" hypocritically on his face!

"Who said it can't be used? It will definitely be useful in the countryside. I know that our Director Li is very open-minded. I'll leave now! If I don't leave now, I will miss the lunch over there and will be hungry on the way. Oh, this job of a buyer is not easy!"

Li Wenqiang complained with a click of the tongue.

Including some bills that he took from him last time, he should have nearly two or three hundred bills of various kinds in his hands, of which various industrial coupons accounted for a considerable portion.

"Being afraid of being hungry is not a big deal. Why don't you go down to the cafeteria and ask Sha Zhu to make you some rice balls to eat on the way? How can you starve? I think you are asking for it. It's not good for us to run a stable business here, but you have to go to the countryside. What's fun in those poor and remote places? Really!"

Li Huaide was very dissatisfied with Li Wenqiang running away to the countryside, fearing that something might happen to him and affect their deal.

"Hey, don't say anything, boss, this is a good idea! I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to the cafeteria to find Sha Zhu first, otherwise it will be too late and the sun will be too strong. Let's go!"

Li Wenqiang's eyes lit up. It's true that Li Huaide's idea was very good.

He walked leisurely to the cafeteria carrying the bag and looking at the people busy inside. He immediately saw Sha Zhu, a disabled person sitting in the kitchen like an old man.

I saw Shazhu sitting leisurely on a bench, his upper body slightly leaning back, his back lazily pressed against the wall, one of his lame legs casually resting on the other leg, gently swaying. One hand rested on his knee, the other hand holding a cup of steaming hot tea, from time to time he would bring it to his mouth, take a sip, close his eyes, and savor the tea fragrance spreading in his mouth.

With a comfortable smile on his face and half-closed eyes, he watched others busy working, his eyes showing a bit of leisure and satisfaction, occasionally opening his mouth to randomly name a poor guy. The whole person exudes a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, and his life is very comfortable.

Until I met him, if I hadn't met him, I believe Sha Zhu would have been so happy forever.

"Hey, Shazhu! Come over here and make me twenty rice balls with some meat filling."

A voice that was deeply engraved in his memory reached his ears from outside.

Sha Zhu suddenly turned his head and looked outside. Who else could this be but Li Wenqiang?

"Humph!"

Sha Zhu turned his head away, not even bothering to look at him. He was called Sha Zhu but he was not really stupid, otherwise he would not be able to thrive in the compound.

After suffering several losses at the hands of Li Wenqiang, his wisdom suddenly returned without Qin Huairu by his side. If you can't beat me, can't you just hide from me?

"Hey, idiot! Did someone hit you and made you deaf? Can't you hear me when I call you?"

Li Wenqiang found Sha Zhu's childish behavior a little funny. Did he think he could avoid him like this? He was really overthinking it. He walked up to him and patted him on the head!

With a bang, everyone in the cafeteria's kitchen stared blankly at this uninvited handsome guy, waiting to see how he got into trouble.

Sha Zhu is so tall and strong, and no one knows how many slaps this handsome young man can take. Everyone is guessing!

The result was beyond everyone's expectations. After being hit, Sha Zhu just glared at the young man in front of him and didn't even dare to vent his anger.

"What are you doing? The kitchen is a restricted area and outsiders are not welcome. Please get out!"

Sha Zhu looked at him for a few seconds, then uttered these words.

Everyone couldn't believe their ears. This idiot was used to being bossy in the kitchen. When had he ever been so cowardly?

"Can't you hear me talking to you? Make me twenty rice balls and I want to take them away!"

Li Wenqiang stood in front of him and said lightly.

"Who are you? You just do what you say. Do you think this steel mill belongs to you?"

He Yuzhu said angrily.

"Of course the steel mill is not mine, it belongs to the state! But I am now going to the countryside to purchase materials under the instructions of my superiors. If you delay my purchase work, will you be responsible? It is the superiors' order that I asked you to make a few rice balls for me. What? Do you want to disobey orders and undermine socialist construction?"

Li Wenqiang looked at him with a smile.

"You're talking nonsense. Stop praising me. Which lousy leader criticized you? Let him come out and let me see if he dares to say it in front of me!"

Sha Zhu said loudly with his neck stiffened.

"I said it, Shazhu, do you want to be punished again for insulting your leader behind his back?"

At this time, Li Huaide's voice came from outside.

Everyone in the kitchen was shocked.

Sha Zhu hurriedly put on a smiling face and said in a flattering manner: "Hey, Director Li is here! Hello, Director Li! Look at my mouth, I'm talking nonsense again without any control, I really deserve to be beaten!"

After saying this, Sha Zhu smiled and slapped his mouth lightly a few times.

Having found a way out, Li Huaide didn't pursue the matter of swearing any further. He still had to rely on him for the May Day dinner next month!

"In the future, stop making trouble for the leaders. Without the leaders fighting for your welfare, where would you get the work clothes and labor protection? I ordered you to work. Comrade Li Wenqiang has made great contributions to our steel rolling mill. You must treat him well. In the future, you will do whatever he says. Do you understand?"

Li Huaide scolded Sha Zhu.

"Got it! Got it! Leader, I'll do it right away!"

After saying this, Sha Zhu ran off to cook dejectedly.

Li Wenqiang looked at Li Huaide coming over with some confusion, not knowing what he meant. He caught up with him just after he left.

"Boss, you can't bear to see me go and chase me again, right? I'd be too embarrassed if I did that!"

Li Wenshi said sarcastically.

"So what if I'm reluctant? You're still going to leave! I'm here to give you money. This is the full payment for the toilet project outside. Please check it. If there's no problem, I'll leave first!"

Li Huaide said as he took out a cloth bag from behind, which contained several stacks of banknotes.

Li Wenqiang took it casually and shook hands with Li Huaide.

"Thank you then!"

Looking at Li Huaide's departing back, Li Wenqiang smiled.
