Chapter 162: The Situation Suddenly Changed

Hearing Shazhu's words, Qin Huairu laughed:

"That's right, I don't treat you as an outsider."

"So, you should be happy that I'm stealing from you."

Shazhu pretended to be glum and said: "No, that means I'm being treated as an outsider, right?"

Qin Huairu: "What do you say then?"

Shazhu: "What am I saying, I can't argue with you."

"But getting back to the topic, you three kids."

"Their education is indeed quite good."

"I quite like them."

"If one day I can't get a wife, just give Huaihua to me, let her be my maid, ah."

Qin Huairu thought for a moment and said:

"Since you insist, it might as well let Bang Geng be your adopted son."

Shazhu exclaimed excitedly: "Great, great!"

Qin Huairu glanced around Shazhu's room, smiled, stood up, and said:

"Alright, take your time drinking."

She wanted Bang Geng to be Shazhu's adopted son, and she had a motive.

She was after Shazhu's house.

One week later.

When Factory Director Yang Changzhang was about to fire Shazhu, the situation suddenly changed, and he was demoted to the workshop for labor reform.

The Factory Director of Hongxing Rolling Steel Factory was Li Huaide.

Moreover, Li Huaide was also responsible for all the factories in the entire Hongxing Community.

Even Lin Shengli's Hongxing Machinery Equipment Factory came under Li Huaide's management.

This was also within Lin Shengli's expectations.

Li Huaide also respected Lin Shengli greatly.

No one under him was allowed to disturb him.

This was all because Lin Shengli had always been polite to him.

Moreover, Li Huaide's superiors had also specifically instructed him that he must never move against Lin Shengli.

This is high-tech talent, after all.

However, the Hongxing Machinery Equipment Factory had temporarily ceased production.

Lin Shengli was also happy to take it easy.

The wind picked up, and he only wanted to protect himself, protect the people he loved and those who loved him.

He couldn't manage anything else.

As long as he got through this period safely, that would be fine.

There were some things he wanted to manage, but he was willing yet unable.

Now Zheng Juan and Lou Xiao'e were both more than three months pregnant.

He didn't want to cause any more trouble.

That day.

Lin Shengli and Zheng Juan were having tea at home when Li Huaide came in with several people.

"Yo, Director Li, long time no see."

"Come, come, please have a seat."

Lin Shengli stood up.

Although Li Huaide's character wasn't great, he had already given himself face.

The key is that he now holds great power.

Of course.

As a high-end, systematic transmigrator.

He thought dealing with Li Huaide was as easy as stepping on an ant.

But without Li Huaide, there would still be Sun Huaide, Wang Huaide,...

If Sun Huaide and Wang Huaide and those people came up, he might not be able to live a leisurely life.

So, as long as Li Huaide doesn't provoke him, he doesn't need to deal with Li Huaide.

"Shengli, I came today with no other intention, just want to catch up."

Li Huaide smiled and sat down.

Exactly, just to catch up.

Since Lin Shengli left Hongxing Rolling Steel Factory and became the director of Hongxing Machinery Equipment Factory, he and Lin Shengli haven't met.

He still admired Lin Shengli and truly wanted to befriend him.

Lin Shengli not only had talent, but his martial arts were also good.

Moreover, his superiors had especially mentioned Lin Shengli, telling him he must never move against Lin Shengli.

"Director Li, have some tea."

Zheng Juan poured Li Huaide a cup of tea.

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Li Huaide said, gesturing for his subordinates to retreat; they bowed their heads respectfully and withdrew.

Li Huaide then said:

"Time really flies; you two have been married for over half a year, right?"

Lin Shengli nodded and said:

"Seven months."

Li Huaide: "Great, seeing you happy makes me feel relieved as well."

Lin Shengli: "By the way, Director Li..."

Li Huaide interrupted: "No outsiders, no need to be so formal."

"I'm older than you; you can call me Brother Li, or Huaide."

Lin Shengli laughed: "Then I'll call you Brother Li."

Li Huaide happily said: "That's better."

Lin Shengli: "Brother Li, the gift you gave us for our wedding is truly precious; I haven't yet thanked you in person."

"Today I will sincerely say thank you to you."

Li Huaide: "Haha, younger brother, you're being polite."

"It's only right."

About half an hour later.

Li Huaide said there were still some matters at the factory, and they could meet again when they had time.

Lin Shengli: "Okay, I'll see you off."

They had just stepped out when they ran into Shazhu walking in.

Shazhu glanced at them and walked away without a word.

Li Huaide frowned and asked:

"Shengli, it seems Shazhu doesn't get along with you?"

Lin Shengli laughed and said:

"He's just an idiot; I don't bother with him."

Li Huaide: "Shengli, if that's the case, then I, as your elder brother, will definitely get revenge for you."

"I'll find a chance to deal with him."

Lin Shengli smiled and said nothing.

Although Shazhu didn't openly provoke him, Shazhu's life or death was none of his concern.

The next day.

Li Huaide was sitting in his office.

Liu Haizhong came to see him.

"Um, I, I am from the machine tool workshop of our factory; my name is Liu Haizhong."

"I want to report some issues to you."

Li Huaide: "Which aspect?"

Liu Haizhong: "It's about our factory director Yang; he, he hasn't properly reformed through labor, but rather..."

Upon hearing this, Li Huaide couldn't help but frown.

After thinking, Li Huaide looked at Liu Haizhong and said:

"Comrade Liu Haizhong, the issue you raised is very important."

"It seems you, an old comrade, have high ideological awareness."

"You also have strong leadership abilities."

Liu Haizhong said with a proud face: "Um, Director Li, I won't, I won't hide it from you."

"In our courtyard, there are, there are over twenty households."

"Seven of those households work in our factory."

"The courtyard has over a hundred people in total."

"All of them are under my leadership."

"Um, Xu Damao, you know him, right?"

"He's the projectionist at our factory."

"He usually shows me great respect."

"And there's our factory's Level 8 pipe worker, Yi Zhonghai..."

Upon hearing this, Li Huaide frowned and asked:

"Are you in the same courtyard as Lin Shengli?"

Liu Haizhong nodded and said:

"Yes, yes, Lin Shengli also respects me a lot."

Li Huaide: "Shengli respecting you is only proper."

"After all, you're an old comrade; he respects everyone."

"What matters is whether you respect him; he's a scientific talent that the state values greatly."

Liu Haizhong hesitated: "Respect, respect, of course I respect him too."

Li Huaide: "Good, please continue."

Liu Haizhong: "Our courtyard also has Shazhu, that is, the factory's canteen cook, called He Yuzhu."

"I, I want to deal with him however I want."

Li Huaide laughed.

Just wondering what reason to use to deal with Shazhu.

"Master Liu, how old are you?"

Liu Haizhong: "I'm fifty-three."

"But my health is still fine."

"Although I'm about to reach retirement age, but, but..."

Li Huaide interrupted: "Comrade Liu Haizhong, I'm preparing to promote you."

Upon hearing that, Liu Haizhong became extremely excited.
