Chapter 1135: The duck knows first when the spring river water warms

"Which one is Li Huai De?"

Zhang Guoqi looked at the sea of people ahead; standing on tiptoe was no longer effective.

With Li Xue's help, he stood on the rear rack of a bicycle.

"Damn it, where did all these people come from!"

Today is Saturday, and the Iron and Steel Academy is rarely open to the public.

All students who registered for the Red Star School, relying on their admission tickets and identification, headed to their corresponding exam rooms according to the notification requirements.

University students from the Iron and Steel Academy were jointly recruited by the Red Star Education Management Office and the Iron and Steel Academy Education Management Office to serve as staff for this exam.

They were more familiar with the campus, so whether at intersections or reception desks, their figures could be seen.

Not only did they have to help examinees find their corresponding exam rooms, but they also had to help students who encountered temporary difficulties solve their problems.

After the three-day theoretical exam ends, there will be an interview exam next month.

It can be said that on the first day of the exam, the Iron and Steel Academy ushered in its most bustling moment.

University campuses at this time were not like those in later generations, with tens of thousands of people at every turn.

One or two thousand people was considered a lot; otherwise, why would university students at this time be considered so precious?

A single class only recruited ten or twenty people, and an entire academic year only had three or four hundred.

However, the examinees flooding into the campus today completely overwhelmed the Iron and Steel Academy.

With over thirty thousand people squeezed in, the entire campus was full of people everywhere one looked.

The Red Star Factory's Security Office was here, and the Security Offices of the Iron and Steel Academy and Huaqing had also been seconded.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Li Xuewu even called the Third Guard Regiment.

Fortunately, the scene was maintained. As the 8:45 AM preparatory exam bell rang, except for the examinees' parents, all examinees had entered the exam rooms.

Meanwhile, a group of factory leaders, as well as leaders from the Iron and Steel Academy, were still standing under a large tree chatting.

Li Huai De, Gu Weijie, and Xue Zhifu represented the Red Star Factory to inspect the exam site.

Iron and Steel Academy President Pei Dayu brought a few people to accompany them. Both sides did not head to the conference room but exchanged views right at the exam site.

It was mainly about the construction of the education system, as well as student management and cultivation.

Actually, these people were easy to find: white shirts, black trousers—they could be seen no matter how many people were at the scene.

It was just that Zhang Guoqi and the others had just arrived and were dazzled.

It was Nie Xiaoguang who said there was excitement at the Iron and Steel Academy today, and that the Red Star Factory's Director—that is, Wei Guo's uncle—would definitely come.

Wei Guo's age might be enough, or it might not, but with his uncle there, perhaps he would come to take the exam.

After all, the temptation of attending school was still great for some people, especially for commissioned university programs.

As long as one kept studying down the Red Star Factory's education system, one could reach university.

And without having to pass the college entrance exam, how many people flocked to it.

Nie Xiaoguang had a certain level of skill in bluffing, but that was about it.

Zhang Guoqi, a street urchin, didn't understand any of this; he just felt that what Nie Xiaoguang said was right, so he followed along.

His feud with Wei Guo was considered settled; he had to cripple the other party.

Although this feud was settled in a somewhat inexplicable way, he had also suspected that Nie Xiaoguang was lying to him.

However, after Nie Xiaoguang was beaten so badly last week and his home was smashed, he had to believe it even if he didn't want to.

Wei Guo was beaten in the morning, and the other party retaliated against Nie Xiaoguang in the afternoon, and even said they found the wrong person?

Even if they found the wrong person, he still had to help Nie Xiaoguang avenge this grudge.

If you don't accompany me when the sun sets behind the western hills, who are you when I rise again?

When one is in the world of rivers and lakes, one is not the master of one's own actions.

Nie Xiaoguang was now in trouble; otherwise, he would also be a proper big tough guy.

After all, his father had ability and the capital for this.

Now that everyone is hanging out together, they have to help him hold up this scene. After all, there is a saying in the world of rivers and lakes: don't set up a Hongmen Banquet when making friends; society is about face.

He brought Li Xue and Yan Jie along, preparing to establish authority as soon as Nie Xiaoguang found the person.

You see, others are afraid of the Red Star Factory's top leader, but he is not afraid.

Yes, the Red Star Factory has a Security Office, but he didn't go to the Red Star Factory to establish authority.

This is a conflict between them and Wei Guo's uncle; it has nothing to do with the Red Star Factory.

These few people today all brought weapons, meaning that if there was an opportunity, they would take action.

Whether Zhang Guoqi dared to or not, I don't know, but Nie Xiaoguang couldn't wait; he felt that Li Huai De was getting further and further away from him.

The Red Star Factory was thriving and its career was taking off, but it was achieved in Li Huai De's hands.

And his father?

The current development of the Red Star Factory just proves that there was a problem with the previous Red Star Factory team, right?

If there was no problem, why wasn't the Red Star Factory this good before?

The better the Red Star Factory develops, the more successful Li Huai De becomes, and the more of a big shot he is that he cannot afford to provoke.

He tried hard to find helpers, even going so far as to frame others, divert the disaster, and invite the wolf into the house, but in the end, the power was still stronger than the person.

Nie Xiaoguang only felt that if this continued, Li Huai De would almost have the treatment of being assigned guards.

Therefore, when it rains in the sky and the ground is slippery, you have to climb up yourself if you fall. Li Huai De provoking him is like stepping on stinking dog shit; even if he gets flattened, he has to disgust him a little.

There were quite a lot of parents sending their children to the exam today, although it wasn't popular to send children to exams in these years.

However, the attention and sensation caused by the Red Star School's enrollment in the whole city were remarkable.

Just look at the examinees' parents who were cleared out by security and university students on campus, and you would know.

These people were quite cooperative with the work, no longer squeezing into the school, and exited the school in an orderly manner under the guidance of security.

As people walked out, standing under the large tree, the group of leaders who had just finished visiting the examinee reception area stood out.

"I see him, right there!"

Nie Xiaoguang pointed, reminding the few people who were looking at the young women and wives: "The one wearing the white shirt—"

"Bullshit—"

Zhang Guoqi stretched his neck to look into the distance and cursed: "A bunch of people wearing white shirts!"

"It's the one wearing black trousers!"

Nie Xiaoguang was so anxious; in his eyes, there was only Li Huai De, and he couldn't accommodate anyone else.

Yan Jie laughed and scolded: "Bullshit—they are all wearing black trousers!"

"Hahaha—"

Zhang Guoqi and Li Xue laughed loudly; when silly boys are together, happiness is just that simple.

"I'll be damned—"

Nie Xiaoguang scanned to one side and only then realized he was being silly.

Isn't that right? The cadres of the Red Star Factory now can really be described as a cow sitting on an airplane—the cow is up in the sky.

He didn't know about the others, but just looking at those people standing under the large tree, everyone was in white and black.

He had heard of these clothes and had seen them, right at the special operation store outside the Third Guard Regiment's station.

Damn it, a shirt is fifteen yuan, a pair of trousers is twenty, a pair of matching cowhide shoes is also seventeen yuan, and even a cowhide belt is twelve.

The shop assistant in the store calls this an administrative suit.

Do you know what an administrative suit is?

It's the clothes worn by cadres; it highlights how neat and stylish they are.

A set of clothes and shoes costs sixty-four yuan, plus the cowhide briefcase, notebook, etc., in hand; no wonder this thing is called a suit.

You don't say, when people designed it, it was a whole set; wearing them separately is just awkward.

So even if the Red Star Factory cadres are tight, they have to get such an outfit; even if it's just for show, they have to have this substance.

This is just for summer; the special operation store has spring, summer, autumn, and winter styles, as well as transition styles and sports styles.

He actually likes the white sneakers in the sports style the most; I heard they were customized with the Warrior factory.

How should I put it, if his father were still in his post and still a deputy factory director, he would have all of these.

However... it's all Li Huai De's fault!

"Look carefully—Li Erbala... the one standing next to Li Xuewu, looking like a smiling tiger."

Nie Xiaoguang described to the few people: "The one whose head is a bit bald and is talking."

"I heard it, you don't have to be so loud!"

Zhang Guoqi was startled by his excitement and looked left and right; there was no one here at the moment.

They were leaning against the wall, right at the bicycle storage area.

Security and university students were only busy asking examinees' parents to walk out and didn't pay attention to these few boys.

"Look around you, I'm really convinced by you!"

Zhang Guoqi saw a team of guards passing by outside the bicycle storage area and was so scared that he jumped off the bicycle.

Not only were there guards, but there were also soldiers in uniform from the Third Guard Regiment.

He really wanted to say that Nie Xiaoguang was reckless, as if he was afraid he wouldn't attract people.

He waved his hand to signal Li Xue and the others to get down and also pulled Nie Xiaoguang down.

"I don't care what feud you have with that Li Huai De, now you have to listen to me!"

He grabbed Nie Xiaoguang by the collar and warned: "We are here to do things, not to seek death."

"Don't be excited, Xiaoguang—"

Yan Jie advised: "There are too many people around the target now, it's not easy to take action."

"If you get excited, it's easy to ruin things and waste this opportunity."

"Hmm—"

Although Nie Xiaoguang was unwilling in every way, he still nodded.

Actually, it was truly not easy for him to see Li Huai De once.

The two people's circles did not intersect, and he didn't know what activities Li Huai De was going to participate in, or when he would go out, so where could he meet him?

Tail him?

Stop messing around; Li Huai De goes in and out by car. Should he tail him by bicycle?

If he tails him too closely, he's easily discovered; if he tails him too loosely, he loses him in the blink of an eye.

You say there aren't many cars in the capital at this time, but Li Huai De didn't go to places with few cars.

The guy is either at his unit or at the ministry, or at other units.

Today is one of the few outdoor activities the other party is participating in, and Nie Xiaoguang is also taking a gamble.

He didn't know Li Huai De was coming to the Iron and Steel Academy, but he knew the Red Star Factory valued education.

In such a big scene, how could Li Huai De, as the top leader, not come to take a look?

He really guessed right; Li Huai De was at the Iron and Steel Academy, and still had that dog-like behavior.

"There is an impact, but we can't give up eating for fear of choking, right?"

Li Huai De glanced at Li Xuewu beside him, smiled confidently, and said: "The Red Star Factory's emphasis on education is an emphasis on the future."

"A ten-thousand-foot building rises from the ground; if you don't lay the foundation well, no matter how high the building is, it's a dangerous building."

"There is a certain risk—"

Li Xuewu nodded in recognition and said: "Currently, there is no latest instruction from above regarding education and enrollment."

"But primary and secondary schools have already organized the resumption of classes, and I believe the university department will also take this step."

He looked at Pei Dayu and said: "The Red Star Factory's school-run school complies with the spirit of the instructions."

"Our goal is to cultivate a batch of professional talents to cope with future development and changes."

"At the same time, it is also to consolidate the foundation and make key preparations for the reform of the Red Star Factory's personnel system."

Li Xuewu crossed his hands in front of his chest, confidently signaled to Li Huai De, and said: "Ten years to grow trees, a hundred years to cultivate people—"

"Director Li can be called a leader and pathfinder in the education industry—"

Pei Dayu smiled and nodded in agreement: "In this regard, the Iron and Steel Academy needs to learn from the Red Star Factory."

"Hey—why are we talking about this again!"

Li Huai De smiled and waved his hand: "Didn't we agree just now not to be so polite."

"Hahaha—"

Everyone echoed and laughed; the main thing was that the atmosphere at the scene was good.

The examinees in the building behind them are the cornerstone of the Red Star Factory's education system and also the cornerstone of the future Iron and Steel Academy.

Although Li Xuewu said that the university department would also restore teaching order, there was still some time.

How long this time would be, he didn't know, and he didn't even know when enrollment would happen.

Now he only hopes to introduce fresh water from the Red Star Factory to revitalize the education of the Iron and Steel Academy and get it flowing.

Currently, two graduating classes of the Iron and Steel Academy are still stranded at the school.

Fortunately, he was prepared and had already communicated well with Li Xuewu's side.

Just after he was appointed president, he cut the Gordian knot and sent the graduates to the Red Star Factory for internships and training.

They had to train and study in the factory and integrate with the working class.

You see, these graduates were unruly and troublesome when they were at school, but when they arrived at the Red Star Factory, everyone was a good baby.

It must be said that the big brother's iron fist is solid enough; even tigers have to pretend to be cats when they go there.

Those who are naughty go to the workshop, and those who are interested in learning and further studies go to the research institute.

Divided by major and ambition, these university students began their labor and study life.

There are even excellent graduates who have passed internal assessments and entered the Red Star Factory through special operations.

In other words, the cooperation between the Red Star Factory and the Iron and Steel Academy not only allowed students to flow but also stabilized the campus environment.

This also allowed Pei Dayu, who had just taken office, to receive praise and encouragement from relevant leaders.

Cooperation between schools and factories is something many colleges are doing, but few do it as well as this.

Pei Dayu was certainly worried that the Red Star Factory's enrollment and such a grand occasion would cause some impact.

Currently, the cooperation and foundation between the two sides are solid; if they go off track temporarily, it would be a loss that neither he nor the Iron and Steel Academy could afford.

Fortunately, Li Huai De's confidence and Li Xuewu's attitude gave him some confidence.

Both sides launched further discussions on this issue at the scene, which could be considered letting the cadres of the Red Star Factory and the Iron and Steel Academy listen.

Among them were cadres from the Red Star Factory's Education Management Office, and Jing Rong was also at the scene.

Gu Weijie represented the Red Star Factory and explained the extension of the personnel system reform, which is the significance and foundation of education system construction.

When describing the purpose and goals, she was considering and looking at education issues from the perspective of the Red Star Factory, that is, the factory.

Discussing and researching the document instructions issued on May 7th last year, factories should build small factories and small schools to meet their own needs and engage in large-scale construction and large-scale learning.

Who says factories can't build universities?

The purpose of the Red Star Factory building schools is to cultivate workers' children into qualified workers.

Starting from this point, no one can shake the Red Star Factory's determination and goal to create an education system.

As for recruiting age-appropriate students from outside the factory, that is to absorb fresh blood and provide the Red Star Factory with sufficient development nutrients.

In the final analysis, the goal is industry, construction, and large-scale learning.

What does Gu Weijie do at the Red Star Factory?

Before the establishment of the Red Star Factory Management Committee, she was the Executive Deputy Secretary, in charge of ideology and organizational education.

Now she still firmly holds the right to interpret the Red Star Factory's ideological education and document spirit.

In other words, the large-scale learning currently being carried out by the Red Star Factory, as well as various activities, are all led and guided by Gu Weijie.

Li Huai De is doing things, and she has to cooperate with Li Huai De to label the projects the Red Star Factory is doing as qualified and make them justified.

Why tell the cadres at the scene?

Because what Li Huai De is doing has already succeeded; the school is being built, the students have entered the exam room, and the Red Star Factory's future education system is formed.

And the ideological system that Gu Weijie summarizes and manages has also matured; the Red Star Factory has its own understanding of work and guiding ideology.

Now is the time to tell the comrades this understanding and goal so they can understand and execute it.

This is why Li Xuewu emphasizes to his subordinates that one must be both idealistic and pragmatic.

Everyone walked out from under the large tree; behind them is the foundation of the Red Star Factory for the next thirty or fifty years.

Li Huai De felt that he was not there when the Red Star Factory was founded; he came together when the Rolling Mill No. 2 was merged in 1960.

But the Red Star Factory developed and grew in his hands; in the future history of the factory, he will definitely leave a heavy stroke.

Everyone will remember his contribution to the Red Star Factory; for a long time to come, the history of the Red Star Factory is being written by him.

He led the Red Star Factory to brilliance, and the Red Star Factory set off his brilliance, pushing him forward and to victory.

Out of this confidence, Li Huai De became even more humble and cautious.

A few days ago, Li Xuewu got an aircraft production line, and he couldn't help but brag when reporting to the leaders, but he didn't expect to brag too much.

The 701 Project coming to the factory was the best response to his bragging.

Otherwise, why would Li Xuewu remind him to keep good things to himself?

Initially, the Red Star Factory signed a contract with foreign merchants, achieving a breakthrough in foreign trade.

What was the result? The Municipal Industry arranged a pile of junk for them to receive.

Fortunately, the motorcycle industry had the investment from the Dongcheng Credit Union to fall back on—five million yuan—which directly transformed a sunset industry into a sunrise industry.

The Red Star Factory had never felt such confidence and fulfillment in running a motorcycle plant.

They had never fought such a wealthy war before.

The Motorcycle Research Institute received sufficient project research funding, and its progress had already caught up with the automobile project.

After all, in the automobile project, only the sedan had received an investment of the same 5 million yuan.

"Vocational Technical College is just the name of the school."

Li Huai De walked over from the examination hall and arrived at the school's small square, which was the parking area.

As he walked with Pei Dayu, he said, "We will integrate all of the Red Star Factory's educational resources into it."

"For example, the temporary training classes, long-term training classes, and night schools run by various units and departments, and so on."

Li Huai De glanced at the car, stopped in his tracks, and said, "Our determination regarding education is unshakable, and we will keep the support and help of our brother units in our hearts."

"Regarding training, student enrollment, and employment, the future must definitely lean toward joint industry. By then, more factory workers will receive this welfare..."

"You damn well better be Li Huai De!"

Just as they were talking, a group of young people not far away pointed at Li Huai De and shouted, "Listen up! Don't be too arrogant, I've got my eye on you!"

A bit foolish and a bit rebellious, Li Xuewu watched with some strangeness as Zhang Guoqi threw a tantrum at Li Huai De.

Is this grandson crazy, biting whoever he catches?

And what did Li Huai De ever do to him?

Needless to say, Li Xuewu didn't understand this question, and neither did Li Huai De.

He frowned slightly as he looked at the other party, racking his brain but not recognizing this young man.

But it didn't matter; he would recognize him soon, because Nie Xiaoguang had snuck up from not far away.

Perhaps the kid's eyes were red with rage, or perhaps he was blind, truly thinking that with Zhang Guoqi and the others attracting fire, he could sneak an attack on Li Huai De's backside.

There were three security departments that came here today, plus the professional Wei Third Regiment.

But as soon as he got close, plainclothes security guards blocked the space between him and Li Huai De.

They wore the same white shirts and black trousers; even their belts and leather shoes were cadre-style.

However, these men with crew cuts and sharp gazes were definitely not people who sat in offices.

"Xiaoguang, why are you here? I was just looking for you."

Before Nie Xiaoguang could even pull out his weapon, his path was blocked. These people didn't appear to be carrying weapons, but some were carrying leather bags.

In just an instant, they could distribute weapons to their hands, and by then, his body would be riddled with holes.

He had long heard his father say that the Red Star Factory's security department was very special and that Li Xuewu was very capable.

Not only did he lead his team well, but he also conducted training well.

It was much stronger than when Fu Bin was there; whether it was the guard team or the security guards, they were all very capable fighters.

Last year, he heard news that the Red Star Factory cooperated with the Wei Third Regiment to hold a security confrontation.

The Red Star Factory's security guards and the Wei Third Regiment's soldiers practiced confrontation, one attacking and one defending.

They not only trained the soldiers in the diversity of attacks but also trained the security guards in all-around capabilities.

The current section chief of the security section was from that batch of special training, and it was said they were incredibly capable fighters.

He really didn't know where these people were before, but now he knew.

Damn it, how is this still security? These are sword-wielding guards; are these bodyguards from the thirties?

I'm just going to stab someone, do I need such professional people to guard against me?

Being grabbed by the arm by Li Heping, he was also scared into a cold sweat.

Fortunately, the knife wasn't pulled out, otherwise...

"Let's go, everyone is waiting for you."

Li Heping glanced at the crew-cut man opposite and whispered a reminder in Nie Xiaoguang's ear: "Guoqi said that everyone around here is from the Red Star Factory."

"Don't be impulsive. Let's leave it at this for today; anyway, you've already cursed the other party, and there will be plenty of time in the future."

"Let's go—"

Seeing Nie Xiaoguang not moving his feet just now, Li Heping thought he was being stubborn and still wanted to take action.

So he explained a few words to him and at the same time reminded him that those security guards were not to be trifled with.

Nie Xiaoguang listened to his words and understood in his heart; he also knew he should leave.

But... but couldn't you just support me a little? My damn feet are numb!

It wasn't anything else; the gazes of those crew-cut men were too sharp, staring at him like beasts ready to pounce at any moment, and he was the food in the beasts' mouths.

If he really dared to have a hint of reckless movement or an irrational impulse, he would be finished.

Perhaps seeing the evasion in his eyes, Li Heping felt both amused and disdainful as he supported him and walked away.

But he didn't expect someone to come up from behind.

"What are you doing here?"

Li Xuewu could see Li Huai De's embarrassment and waved his finger toward Zhang Guoqi's direction; security guards had already gone to chase, but those few brats ran fast.

And hearing voices from behind, he turned his head and saw Nie Xiaoguang.

Nie Xiaoguang didn't want to see Li Xuewu at all right now; he felt humiliated.

"I... I'm not doing anything."

Nie Xiaoguang felt ashamed, but in front of Li Xuewu, he still had to stand up straight to speak.

He stiffened his neck and said, "Nothing, I'm just strolling—"

"Strolling here?"

Li Xuewu directly called out his purpose and asked, "Are those few brats just now with you?"

Of course, he knew who was cursing just now, but he shouldn't know at this time.

Otherwise, Li Huai De would overthink, and other cadres would overthink.

Therefore, through Nie Xiaoguang, he had to make it clear and help Li Huai De smooth things over.

"We... we..."

Li Heping was already nervous; he wasn't afraid of those security guards, but he was afraid of Li Xuewu.

Security guards wouldn't kill people, but Li Xuewu would.

A person's name is like a tree's shadow; who in Dongcheng doesn't know Li Erbala?

Although Li Xuewu's tone wasn't serious right now, and was even somewhat amiable.

But he was still afraid, standing on Nie Xiaoguang's side, cursing this grandson in his heart for ruining things.

Clearly knowing that there were many security guards today, he still had to play it tough.

If Zhang Guoqi hadn't seen him about to make a blind move, he would have really been implicated by this kid.

What Li Xuewu just saw, Zhang Guoqi cursing Li Huai De, wasn't helping Nie Xiaoguang, but rather helping Li Huai De with a reminder.

Because whether Li Huai De was assassinated or not, as long as Nie Xiaoguang pulled out a knife, this matter would be huge.

He didn't dare guarantee that Nie Xiaoguang's mouth wouldn't leak him out; by then, he would be an accomplice.

So, the wind is tight—run!

"The child of our factory's former deputy director."

Li Xuewu didn't bother with him anymore, but nodded toward the frowning Pei Dayu, which counted as an explanation.

On one hand, he didn't let this matter escalate; after all, they were at the Iron and Steel Institute, and Pei Dayu had also lost face.

If he were to pursue it, Nie Xiaoguang would be caught and talk about factory matters, which would also be a disgrace to the Red Star Factory.

By then, Li Xuewu would still have to arrange for someone to pick him up, because Nie Nie Chenglin was still a person of the Red Star Factory.

On the other hand, it was an explanation for Li Huai De; it was a factory conflict, and it had to be taken back to the factory to be handled, not losing his temper here.

Li Huai De understood; he glanced at Nie Xiaoguang, who was stiffening his neck and "waiting for death," and only felt irritable.

This child had no sense of judgment; he made him lose face, so would his father be any better?

"His father is undergoing labor education, so he counts the grudge against me."

Li Huai De shook his head slightly, said nothing more, sighed, and got into the car after his secretary opened the door.

Pei Dayu shook hands with Li Xuewu and said, "Every family has its own difficult scriptures to read; a few days ago, someone smashed my office window and wrote on the blackboard to curse me, but I just seek a clear conscience."

"You are right—"

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and said nothing more. Seeing Xue Zhifu and Gu Weijie get into the car, he also got into Li Huai De's car.

Both sides said goodbye under not very pleasant circumstances, and the motorcade left the small square and drove toward the main gate.

Nie Xiaoguang saw that the other party didn't pay any attention to him from beginning to end, and didn't even look at him directly.

He only felt aggrieved and angry in his heart, standing there like a clown.

Even those people from the Iron and Steel Institute and the people from the Red Star Factory's Education Management Office treated him like stinking dog shit, not worth a glance.

"What did I do wrong—!"

"Still have to manage it; if they can come at me today, they'll be reaching for the sky tomorrow."

As soon as they left the school gate, they saw the few people who had just been cursing on the street.

Li Huai De's ability to endure was very good, but he was just in a bad mood and depressed.

He never thought he would be cursed by irrelevant people.

"I haven't heard that there's anything going on with Comrade Nie Nie Chenglin's side?"

Li Xuewu frowned slightly and said, "This kid is really ignorant."

"The problem of education," Li Huai De sighed and said, "Family education is very important."

"Our Xiaoyang, when he was six, didn't know where he learned to curse."

He gestured with his hand and said, "I beat him until I broke a tree stick this thick, and after that, he never dared to curse again."

"Children's education is a big matter, especially given our status, which has given them a comfortable life and material foundation."

Li Huai De said with great emotion, "This life is dedicated to the organization; if the child doesn't live up to expectations, it's as if this life was lived in vain."

"If you don't sweep a room—"

Li Xuewu nodded, very much agreeing with Li Huai De's point of view.

He now had two children, Li Shu and Li Ning.

He didn't know about the younger one, but the older one, Li Shu, was spoiled and was almost reaching for the sky.

If it continued like this, she would definitely be crowned the title of little bully at school.

How many cadres clearly made contributions to the organization and to the people, but ended up failing to teach their children and failing to discipline them strictly.

Especially toward family members, including the discipline and indulgence of their wives, allowing them to corrupt the family style.

Of course, Li Shu was still young, and she was still ignorant when you tried to reason with her.

Li Xuewu didn't know if he would have enough time to spend with his children in the future.

He hoped his children would all be good; he didn't ask for great achievements, but they had to be good people.

"Tighten it up; the wind outside isn't quite right."

Li Huai De opened the car window, and the depression in his heart dissipated.

"You must grasp the line of thought well and communicate more with Comrade Weijie."

"Especially the ideological education of workers, which is the top priority."

He pounded his knees and said, "The security department is the last high wall of the Red Star Factory, the final bottom line; we absolutely cannot let bad winds affect the worker ranks."

"The security department must strictly enforce discipline and prevent the expansion and spread of bad winds."

Li Huai De looked at Li Xuewu and instructed, "Greet the propaganda department well; you must do a good job of appeasement and propaganda work, and absolutely do not allow Red Star Factory workers to participate in the chaos outside."

It wasn't that Li Huai De was making a fuss, and it wasn't that he was uncomfortable and looking for someone to vent to after being cursed at the Iron and Steel Institute.

It was that he learned through connections that while the Red Star Factory was relatively calm in May and June, it was very lively outside.

Why was there that notice on June 6th? It was because the situation wasn't right.

The activities of the big study in the past were still literary, but now they were directly taking action.

Li Xuewu also admired Nie Xiaoguang, this kid; he could catch up with anything.

Just take this matter; it actually had nothing to do with him.

He hadn't heard that Nie Xiaoguang was close to any team; he was purely looking for trouble with Li Huai De.

But, he just happened to catch up, and Li Huai De was convinced that he was organized and had a goal.

Even the cursing and sneak attack on Li Huai De were over-interpreted.

Li Xuewu was more willing to believe that Old Li was now a frightened bird.

Only those who lived in this era and experienced these things could understand what it meant to be precarious and what it meant to walk on thin ice.

Sitting in the mentor's seat and watching a few fresh meat actors perform awkwardly is like walking on thin ice and sitting on pins and needles?

Then Li Huai De must be sitting on a powder keg now.

Old Li now looked at everyone as if they were enemies of his class, and he didn't know what he was calculating in his heart.

It was just that Li Xuewu was also confused; what did Nie Xiaoguang want to do with this performance?

Li Huai De only arranged for Nie Nie Chenglin to go to labor, and didn't kill him.

On this point, you have to say that Old Li is a mature politician; he would absolutely not force Nie Nie Chenglin to death.

Yang Fengshan and Yang Yuansong were overestimating their capabilities and asking for trouble.

Yang Fengshan finally understood that Li Huai De was deliberately trying to humiliate him.

He just let him stay in the factory properly and see how Old Li led the team.

And Yang Yuansong, this one was even more confused, actually dreaming of inviting a wolf into the house.

Originally, there were cadres and masses in the factory who were thinking of him, feeling it was a pity that he went down.

But after this, no one thought of his good; everyone knew he came to destroy the stability of the Red Star Factory and came to smash the pot.

Just think about it; he didn't come back, but if he did, he would be covered in spit.

Now Li Huai De didn't take action against Nie Nie Chenglin, but his son Nie Xiaoguang took action against his father.

Messing with Li Huai De like this, although there was no substantial harm, didn't Li Huai De need face?

Wasn't this forcing Li Huai De to retaliate?

Not to mention anything else, the deputy director of the management committee office, Shi Ruoweng, was still representing the organ at the Yingcheng Shipyard, leading the comrades who went down to exercise to do work.

This old guy was no ordinary person; he did that kind of stupid thing and committed such a big matter, and Li Huai De didn't even remove him. What if he over-interpreted it?

Even if it was an active performance, or a set of bullshit performances about a subject dying for his lord, taking Nie Nie Chenglin to get promoted and striving for a chance to return to Beijing, then Nie Nie Chenglin would be in danger.

Li Huai De wouldn't be petty enough to take it out on Nie Nie Chenglin and fight with a child.

But he couldn't stop the people around him from helping him vent this anger.

Now Nie Xiaoguang wasn't putting eye drops on his father, but a knife.

The duck knows the warmth of the spring river first; those who stand high know the wind is wrong first.

Li Huai De's reminder to Li Xuewu wasn't groundless, and Li Xuewu made arrangements as soon as he arrived at the factory that day.

However, when he came to the club on Sunday and heard Zuo Jie mention the situation outside while playing tennis, he felt that things were a bit troublesome.

He wasn't sure about the memory of this period, or rather, it was blurred.

It was too chaotic, chaotic everywhere; no one knew when the so-called taking action started.

Just hearing Li Huai De talk about the many fights in May and June, and then thinking about the branch's notification, as well as the arrogance of Nie Xiaoguang, Zhang Guoqi, and others.

"I told them that the Youth Society is a positive organization, an organization for learning and progress."

Zuo Jie took the towel from Luo Yun's hand and handed it to Li Xuewu, then took another one to wipe his sweat, and explained: "The Youth Society absolutely does not support, and even more so does not allow, them to go out and fight."

"Hmm, we must be vigilant against the ideological fluctuations brought about by this situation."

After Li Xuewu wiped his sweat, he carried his racket and sat on a chair in the shade.

Luo Yun had brewed tea for them; Zhou Xiaobai wasn't there, and she was just busy herself.

Zhou Xiaobai hadn't returned this week; she was busy with her career in Jinmen.

Yes, you heard that right; she was told by Li Xuewu last week and taught by Yu Li, and she also knew that her bucket of water was not full and was shaking.

It was quite rare that she had the motivation to improve.

"Force cannot solve problems; fighting is breaking the law!"

Zuo Jie sat on the chair, panting, and said: "I am already organizing learning activities, called Youth Big Study."

"Foreign languages, politics, literature, finance, geography, etc., as long as we can invite teachers, we will listen to lectures and seminars."

He gestured toward the small auditorium and said: "Several sessions have already been organized, and the effect is very good."

"Hehe, it's quite good for training—"

Li Xuewu smiled and nodded, saying: "You still have to do business; it's just tempering people."

As he said this, he picked up his teacup, took a sip, and asked: "I heard you helped them borrow a car?"

The Red Star Factory Automobile Manufacturing Plant's production line trial production produced some Hongxing Lingyang jeeps, and Li Xuewu left five for the club to use as official vehicles.

This thing looked conspicuous now, but it wouldn't look conspicuous in a few days.

There were already more than 3,000 orders accumulated, and some units ordered dozens, just to update their official vehicles.

After all, they were all old cars from ten or twenty years ago, and they were almost repaired to pieces.

Red Star Hongxing Lingyang cars were cheap and had preferential prices, 6,000 yuan each, and ten were only 60,000 yuan.

60,000 yuan was only enough to buy one sedan, so it was very practical relatively speaking.

The five Hongxing Lingyang jeeps purchased by the club cost less than 30,000 yuan in total.

It was considered a service for club members and also a service for official business.

The Youth Society also had the right to use the cars, but every time they used them, they needed to rent them, and they needed Zuo Jie to apply.

But I didn't expect that as soon as the cars were driven back, the eyes of the boys in the Youth Society were fixed on them.

They insisted on applying to Zuo Jie to drive them out to show off to those old soldiers.

Zuo Jie said that Li Yuanchao was the most active; this kid loved excitement the most.

"They are not of one mind; the old batch doesn't get along with the new batch."

Zuo Jie took a sip of hot tea, still somewhat unaccustomed to it; he preferred drinking cold water.

The kind that was just drawn from the well, icy cold.

"Where there are rivers and lakes, there are disputes; sometimes the old batch will drive 212s out to show off," Zuo Jie explained: "He drives a new car to vent his anger, just to steal the limelight."

"However, the Hongxing Lingyang car is indeed prettier than the 212 and easier to drive, at least I think so."

Li Xuewu smiled and looked at him, asking: "Do you have a driver's license?"

"My judgment is sound, does that count? Hehe—"

Zuo Jie laughed and said: "I just try it in the courtyard; Li Yuanchao has a license."

"He is much wilder than me; he learned to drive from the car class a long time ago and got his license."

"If you want to drive, go learn."

Li Xuewu stood up, moved his shoulders, and said: "I'll write you a note, and you go learn in the Red Star Factory's car class."

"Thank you, Brother Wu—"

Zuo Jie was naturally willing; otherwise, why would he say this?

After getting the benefit, he had to sell it, picked up his racket, and continued to be a sparring partner.

"Oh, by the way, Li Yuanchao gave me a samurai sword, inlaid with gold; it's with Old Four."

He raised his eyebrows at Li Xuewu and said: "This kid is so shrewd; he was embarrassed to say it was a gift for you, so he entrusted me to transfer it."
