The person who took over from Lin Dong was named Liu.

He was not a resident of Shiling Village, but lived in Banshi Village, which was closer to the foundry.

Although it was not on his way, Zhou Qi still offered to give him a ride.

"Uncle Liu, who has the final say in our foundry now?" Zhou Qi asked curiously.

Uncle Liu has been guarding the foundry for more than a year, almost since the day it was abandoned, and knows much more than Lin Dong.

"The land occupied by this factory belongs to Banshi Village, so it should be managed by the village. But as you've heard, the investor ran away, and this factory is like a hot potato, no one wants to take it over, so now the county has to take temporary control."

It seems that if I want to take over this factory, I have to deal with the county.

It's easy in town.

But when it comes to the county, Zhou Qi thought about it and found that he had no connections.

This is a bit tricky.

After sending Uncle Liu to the village entrance, Zhou Qi's mind began to revolve around this matter on his way back.

Who to call?

Suddenly, a candidate popped into his mind—Ma Yuancai’s father!

Lin Dong mentioned before that when choosing the location for the foundry, he specifically considered that it should be close to the steel plant.

That's quite straightforward.

As for the foundry, it must have some close ties with the steel plant. Maybe the steel plant even holds shares in it.

In any case, it feels like the right approach to start with Ma Yuancai's father.

After returning home, Zhou Qi looked for Lin Ruixue.

"How did I perform today?" Zhou Qi asked jokingly.

Lin Ruixue's eyes flickered, and she nodded gently: "Yeah, you too!"

"Well, what does it mean?" Zhou Qi pretended to be confused.

Lin Ruixue whispered shyly: "You are great too!"

Zhou Qi came closer and asked with a smile: "What's so good about it?"

Lin Ruixue's face turned red, like a shy little rabbit, and she gently put her hand on Zhou Qi's chest and said coquettishly, "What are you doing?"

"Give me your hand." Zhou Qi ordered softly.

Lin Ruixue was stunned for a moment. Although she didn't understand what was going on, she still reached out her hand obediently.

Zhou Qi grinned and held Lin Ruixue's hand with his left hand.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Ruixue felt something cool creeping up her ring finger.

She understood it in her heart.

Zhou Qi looked at her deeply, and slowly opened his hand that was covering her. Lin Ruixue's white fingers and the sparkling diamond ring on them came into view.

Tears welled up in his eyes, instantly lighting up his eyes.

"This is the most beautiful hand I have ever seen." Zhou Qi's thumb gently stroked her fingertips, raised his eyes to look at the surprised and happy Lin Ruixue, and asked softly: "Do you like it?"

Which woman doesn't dream of a diamond ring? Lin Ruixue is no exception, but her past life made her dare not even think about it.

And at this moment, the ring she had always dreamed of was actually on her hand.

The diamonds sparkled under the light, illuminating the fingers and backs of the hands, beautiful as a dream.

Zhou Qi smiled and tapped his cheek, saying coquettishly: "Come on, give me a kiss to thank me!"

Lin Ruixue pursed her lips, and although a little shy, she still moved closer.

After Zhou Qi coaxed him into submission, seeing that it was getting dark, he said he wanted to go back.

Riding a motorcycle after dark is indeed unsafe.

As soon as I got home and parked the car, I heard a voice.

"Xiao Qi, it's Aunt Zhang!" The voice of neighbor Aunt Zhang came from outside the door.

Zhou Qi's eyes twitched suddenly, and he knew why she came without having to guess.

This girl really had a good sense of timing. As soon as I stepped into the house, she followed me in. It was obvious that she was trying to block me!

In fact, Aunt Zhang witnessed Zhou Qi's abilities with her own eyes today.

At the opening ceremony, people from all walks of life showed up, some were directors and some were leaders. Zhou Qi handled the situation well and had a wide network of contacts. Moreover, the scene was very lively, with guests thronging the factory...

This company seems to have a bright future!

Aunt Zhang was so anxious that she wanted to send her daughter to work in Zhou Qi's company right away.

As long as Zhou Qi nods, he can let his daughter report tomorrow.

After waiting for a long time but seeing no sign of anyone, she thought there was no hope for today, but when she heard the sound of a motorcycle, she quickly packed up and rushed over with the gift she had prepared long ago.

Zhou Qi didn't even think about opening the door. He said through the door, "What's the matter? If it's not urgent, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Anyone with common sense can understand the meaning behind these words.

Unfortunately, Zhou Qi obviously overestimated Aunt Zhang's "understanding".

Having said that, anyone with a quick mind wouldn't come here to disturb others so late at night, right?

"It's so urgent, Brother Zhou Qi, please open the door quickly!" Aunt Zhang shouted.

Zhou Qi felt helpless inside, but he still opened the door out of consideration for the relationship.

As soon as the door opened, Aunt Zhang rushed in carrying her things, followed by a girl, her daughter.

"Aunt Zhang." Zhou Qi blocked her way and said, "If you have anything to say, just talk at the door. We are tired after a whole day and the whole family is asleep. It's not convenient!"

Aunt Zhang glanced into the room and smiled awkwardly: "Hey, this is the mooncake I made myself. I wanted to give it to you to try. Take it quickly."

"Thank you." Zhou Qi thanked him but didn't answer. He then asked, "Aunt Zhang, if you have any questions, please tell me directly. I will definitely help if I can."

"Look, what did I say? Brother Zhou Qi is promising and loyal. We have been neighbors for so many years. We are like family." Aunt Zhang said, pushing her daughter, "Girl, Brother Zhou Qi has said so much, why are you still standing there? Call him. Yes, call Mr. Zhou!"

"Mr. Zhou!" Aunt Zhang's daughter called out.

"Brother Zhou Qi, you've been busy all day, go to bed early, we won't disturb you, I'll have my daughter Li Mei report directly to your company tomorrow." Aunt Zhang waved her hand and said anxiously, "Go home, no need to see me off."

Zhou Qi almost laughed at her frankness.

"Wait." Zhou Qi stopped them, "Aunt Zhang, did you misunderstand something? I didn't say I wanted your daughter to work in my company."

Aunt Zhang's face changed slightly, and then she smiled and said, "Needless to say, I visited your company today and met those employees. None of them can compare to my daughter. Besides, we have been friends for many years. How can you not agree to such a small thing?"

"I know you're worried that my daughter can't bear the hardship. Don't worry, there's absolutely no problem."

"Okay, Aunt Zhang understands what you mean."

"Just let her work there for half a month. It won't take much for you to promote her to a leader."

How shameless, invincible!

Today I have deeply understood the meaning of this sentence.

Not to mention anything else, just based on his shamelessness, if he really got into the company, he would cause a lot of trouble.

Zhou Qi didn't bother beating around the bush and said directly: "Aunt Zhang, I made it very clear before that the company is currently fully staffed and is not hiring for the time being."

"Besides, even if we recruit someone, your daughter is not suitable."

Aunt Zhang's face darkened immediately when she heard this: "Brother Zhou Qi, what do you mean by that? Are you determined not to want my daughter?"
