Liu Lijuan stood in front of Zhou Andong's office door and knocked lightly. After hearing the response from inside, she slowly pushed the door and walked in. Then she saw Zhou Andong full of smiles, which made her very curious.

"Leader, what happy event have you encountered? Seeing you smile so happily."

"Comrade Lijuan, come over and sit!" Zhou Andong stood up, greeted Liu Lijuan enthusiastically, then personally poured her a cup of water, placed it on the coffee table in front of Liu Lijuan, and then continued: "It is indeed a good thing!"

"What good thing?" Liu Lijuan said very curiously: "Can you let me listen too, so I can be happy too."

Zhou Andong couldn't help laughing: "Our school is going to build teaching buildings and staff dormitories. Originally, my plan was to take out a loan, but I didn't expect someone who is willing to advance funds to come to the door!"

"Ah?" Liu Lijuan was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, her face full of disbelief, "There is such a good thing? Someone is actually willing to help us advance funds?"

Zhou Andong nodded and said with great emotion: "Yes, I have lived so long, and I have really never heard that there are such kind-hearted people in this world. Jingcheng is worthy of being the place of first goodness, it is different from other places, whether it is the pattern or the thinking, it is a big chunk higher than other places, which really makes me admire."

Liu Lijuan nodded in agreement and asked curiously again: "Who is this person?"

"This is temporarily confidential." Zhou Andong waved his hand with a smile: "If it is negotiated, then tell everyone, so everyone can be happy. If it is not negotiated, just treat it as if I haven't said anything."

Since the leader said so, Liu Lijuan understood that she should stop when it is appropriate, no matter how curious she was in her heart. It would not be very appropriate to ask again, so she naturally changed the topic.

"In the morning, I went around the primary school, junior high school, and technical secondary school, as well as the staff family area, and understood the specific situation. Then I held a short meeting with the three principals, asking them to submit an application for rebuilding the teaching buildings and staff dormitories to the factory in written form."

Zhou Andong nodded: "This application is indeed necessary to be submitted. After they send it over, the secretary and I will sign it, and then send it to the Municipal SASAC office for Shi Guoqiang to approve."

Liu Lijuan was stunned upon hearing this and said somewhat hesitantly: "I don't think it is necessary to send it to Director Shi. After all, this is a matter of our factory-affiliated school. As long as you and the secretary approve it, it should be fine. Moreover, if it is sent to Director Shi, the application will be suppressed."

"Whether it is suppressed or not, we must report it to the superior competent department." Zhou Andong smiled slightly, looked at Liu Lijuan and said: "No matter what you do, you must leave traces and have traces to follow."

Liu Lijuan's heart moved, and she instantly understood the key point. The factory-affiliated school is going to build teaching buildings and staff dormitories. According to common sense, as long as the factory director and secretary nod, this matter can be pushed forward logically.

However, the current situation of the Woolen Mill is extremely complicated. If it were really done like this, I am afraid it would trigger a series of unpredictable consequences. Because, in this situation, if the superior competent leader wants to find fault, it is really one find one accurate.

You privately misappropriated factory funds to build schools and staff dormitory buildings without reporting to the competent department. Is there any unspeakable catty (trick) in this?

By that time, the investigation team will come down, and you will have to suffer whatever grievances you have. Who told you to operate in violation of regulations and leave handles for your opponents to attack you? By then, even the city and the Central Committee won't be able to say anything.

"I understand!" Liu Lijuan nodded thoughtfully and said solemnly, "Some necessary steps must never be omitted. We must strictly follow the regulations to avoid leaving handles for others. Especially in such a sensitive period, any negligence may lead to serious consequences."

"This is just one of them!" Zhou Andong leaned against the sofa, lit a cigarette leisurely, and continued to say while puffing clouds and mist, "Why don't you think about it, if we report this matter to Shi Guoqiang, what will he do?"

Liu Lijuan answered with an unusually firm tone: "He will definitely choose to suppress this matter and not deal with it."

She knew Shi Guoqiang's style of doing things too well. Given Shi Guoqiang's personality and stance, he would likely adopt this method.

Zhou Andong started to laugh: "If he dares to suppress this matter and not deal with it, all the school staff will definitely not let it go. They will definitely swarm to the Municipal SASAC to ask for an explanation and make the matter completely big. By then, what will be Shi Guoqiang's end?"

A shocked look appeared on Liu Lijuan's face. In her mind, such a scene appeared: a group of angry staff protesting noisily at the gate of the Municipal SASAC, demanding Shi Guoqiang to give an explanation.

In this way, Shi Guoqiang will definitely be made embarrassed, and in the end, that guy definitely won't have a good time. Dismissal is impossible, but a warning talk is inevitable, and it might even give him an intra-party warning.

Zhou Andong looked at Liu Lijuan and continued: "I specifically checked the weather forecast this morning. It is very likely to rain in the next few days. If Shi Guoqiang really explicitly rejects the application for building the school and staff dormitories, when it rains, the staff dormitory might collapse due to disrepair.

Even if there are no casualties, but Shi Guoqiang rejected the application for building the staff dormitory building, a hat of disregarding the life and property safety of the staff will be firmly buckled on his head, and he won't be able to take it off even if he wants to."

Liu Lijuan suddenly felt like being blown by a cold wind, and shivered violently. In Liu Lijuan's impression, Zhou Andong has always been a very strong person, not only with superior wisdom but also with clever means, always able to handle various complex situations with ease.

However, at this moment, Liu Lijuan discovered that Zhou Andong still had such a sinister side. As long as the application is sent to Shi Guoqiang, no matter what he does, he won't have a good time in the end.

She couldn't help but feel a burst of lingering fear, secretly rejoicing in her heart that she had wisely chosen to stand on the factory director's side. If she had been blindly following Shi Guoqiang and Hu Dajun all the way to the dark, she would never have seen the dawn.

Liu Lijuan took a deep breath, looked at Zhou Andong and said: "Even if Shi Guoqiang approves the application, I guess he will be disgusted and won't be able to sleep well for a few days."

"Hahaha..." Zhou Andong laughed out loud: "Yes, no matter what he does, he won't feel good. But by comparison, honestly approving it will cause the least damage to him, at most it will just be disgusting for a period of time."

Liu Lijuan also laughed along: "Not necessarily, spiritual trauma is the most difficult to endure. When the teaching buildings and staff dormitories are built, as long as he sees them, I guess he won't feel very happy in his heart."

The two chatted for a while, and Zhou Andong asked: "When you went back last night, you didn't hit the child, did you?"

Liu Lijuan gave a bitter smile: "That dead girl, halfway through she ran to her grandmother's house to live. I couldn't pull her back, and I almost fell down."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "The child is grown up, especially girls, you can't hit or scold them. You reason with her, and she can still listen."

"I hope so!" Liu Lijuan sighed, stood up and said: "I'm going back, call the three principals, and let them send the application over as soon as possible."

"Good!"

Zhou Andong stood up to send Liu Lijuan out of the office, turned back, sat down on the sofa again, and continued to smoke. As for the important matter he mentioned in his mouth, he didn't even know what it was himself.

But he wasn't idle either. After smoking, he started to ponder the matter of reform, then took out paper and pen from the drawer, and wrote on it: Opinions and Implementation Plan for Deepening Reform of the Woolen Mill!

Time passed unconsciously, Zhou Andong had been writing with his head down, only occasionally lighting a cigarette or drinking water.

I don't know when it was, the office door was knocked. Zhou Andong raised his head, glanced at the quartz clock hanging on the wall, it was already 4:30.

"Come in!" Zhou Andong put the paper and pen into the drawer.

The door was pushed open gently, and Dong Wenjuan walked in: "Factory Director, General Manager Wu Xiangqun of Daguang Group is here, he said he has an appointment with you."

"I forgot to tell you, he did call me before." Zhou Andong pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray: "Let him in!"
