Chapter 1456: Haven't Been a Big Brother for Many Years

~34 min read 6,679 words

"Why is it Yingcheng!"

Bang Geng looked at the train ticket in his hand, looking as lost as a husky.

"Didn't you say we were going to Fengcheng?"

He chased after Li Xuewu and reminded him, "Didn't you say you were arranging for me to go to the big city of Fengcheng?"

"Who told you it must be Fengcheng?"

Li Xuewu put on his coat, turned his head and looked at him, saying, "Besides, Yingcheng is also a big city."

"Liar—" Bang Geng complained aggrievedly with a mournful face, "Yingcheng isn't even as big as Steel City."

"You go see it first before saying that."

Li Xuewu twitched the corners of his mouth, looked at the half-grown boy standing at the entrance, and said, "If you can't even reach Yingcheng, don't even think about Fengcheng."

"I can go anywhere by myself!"

Bang Geng lifted his spirits, raised his head and looked at him, emphasizing, "You just watch; I'll be eating breakfast in Yingcheng tomorrow."

"It's not as far as you think."

Li Xuewu turned and went out; the car was already waiting at the entrance.

Zhou Wang Yamei chased down from upstairs, gestured to the package in her hand and reminded, "You forgot this."

"It's just a trip for a few days."

Li Xuewu deliberately didn't bring the luggage she had prepared, smiled and explained, "I might be back the day after tomorrow."

"You still have to be prepared."

Zhou Wang Yamei insisted on stuffing the bag containing simple clothes and personal items to him.

"If you really need it and don't have it, you'll be blind; it's not that heavy."

"Bang Geng, go do your own things."

She didn't want Bang Geng to pester Li Xuewu anymore, turned her head and instructed her student, "Are your luggage and money/tickets for going out prepared?"

"I want to go to Fengcheng—"

Bang Geng looked at Li Xuewu helplessly and pleadingly across her, expecting Wu Shu to take back his order before leaving and send him to the big city to develop.

"Why don't you want to go to heaven!"

Zhou Wang Yamei glared at Bang Geng, her tone serious, "Your Wu Shu has important work to do today; if you pester him again, he'll be late."

"But..." Bang Geng still argued, "Wu Shu is going to Fengcheng; isn't it just on the way if I follow him? I can also save on travel expenses."

"If you want to go, go to Yingcheng; if not, forget it." Zhou Wang Yamei had done too much administrative management work, and gradually lost the patience of a psychologist.

"What do you want to go to Fengcheng for?" Li Xuewu stood outside the door and reminded him, "The person handling Fengcheng's affairs is in Yingcheng; if you go now, you can still learn some experience."

"Then I'll go to Yingcheng!"

Bang Geng's attitude changed abruptly; he nodded seriously and said, "Wu Shu, don't worry about returning to Beijing; I'll handle Fengcheng's affairs."

"Having you, it really is my luck."

Li Xuewu sighed amusedly, turned and walked out of the courtyard and got into the waiting car.

Zhang Enyuan helped him close the car door and trotted into the passenger seat.

"Secretary-General, the plane is already waiting for us at Fengcheng Airport."

The Volga M24, with its polished paint, started steadily and drove out of the Guanshan street area.

The residents on this street had long been accustomed to the fact that No. 48 had changed its male owner, and didn't even dare to publicly inquire or explore what happened in that house.

The house next door still had a seal, but half of it was falling off, and the handwriting had long been blurred.

I don't know if it was the naughtiness of children or the evil of people, but that house, which was already silent in the past, was now riddled with holes, and the glass was incomplete.

A house with no one living in it is like an old man who has left his children, weak and powerless, miserable and unbearable.

After being eroded by wind and rain and damaged by people, it seemed that it was only a matter of time before it collapsed.

Li Xuewu reminded Zhou Wang Yamei once when he first arrived in Steel City, asking her to pay attention to the house next door.

It wasn't that he was afraid of the house next door collapsing and affecting them; the house wasn't that fragile.

It was just that a house left unoccupied for a long time would attract some "parasites."

Almost everyone knew that everyone in that family had disappeared, leaving only the house.

And since no one had moved in, people with nowhere to live would treat this place as a temporary residence.

What kind of moral bottom line could people with no fixed abode have? Zhou Wang Yamei and her daughter had no ability to resist this kind of risk.

But it's better now; Li Xuewu lived here, and the house next door became Nie Liansheng's "office."

Do you think he really grew clairvoyant eyes and ears like Bang Geng guessed, able to explore all his actions and things he said?

I'm afraid only Bang Geng would think so, because he couldn't figure out how Wu Shu knew these things while being busy all day; it couldn't be that Aunt Zhou was following him.

He still had this bit of awareness; in Aunt Zhou's heart, he wasn't that important yet.

Look, both Wu Shu and he were going on a long trip, but Aunt Zhou only prepared luggage for Wu Shu.

And him?

He didn't dare to remind Aunt Zhou to help him pack his luggage; that wouldn't be "reversing the heavens."

Li Xuewu pondered the idea of arranging Bang Geng's "study tour" for a whole night, and decided to try this kid despite Zhou Wang Yamei's worry.

If it works, it works; if it doesn't, it doesn't.

Since he took the initiative to ask for progress, send him to the most dangerous place to learn and exercise.

Seeing Gelin was in Yingcheng, so Bang Geng naturally didn't need to go to Fengcheng to stroll; just let him have his wish.

However, Li Xuewu didn't intend to spoil him; if he wanted to go out to exercise, he could, but he had to go by himself.

Li Xuewu didn't have time to send him, and Zhou Wang Yamei had even less time.

Besides, since he considered himself an adult, he should do things an adult should do.

From Steel City to Yingcheng, if Bang Geng had the courage to take the train there by himself, he would have passed Li Xuewu's first test.

Of course, Bang Geng was in the light, and Nie Liansheng, who was going to Yingcheng, was in the dark.

If Bang Geng performed well, Nie Liansheng would have completed his phased mission and wouldn't need to appear in front of Bang Geng, going directly to Hong Kong by boat.

Li Xuewu had already given him the order; after finishing this matter, go to Hong Kong to operate.

The situation in Hong Kong was becoming more and more bizarre; Li Xuewu absolutely didn't believe that Lou Xiaoe and Ji Weidong didn't know about such a big problem.

Since there was no reason for the two of them not to know, why did they let the matter develop, letting Wen Saner suffer such a big blow.

If it was an internal contradiction, he still had an attitude to handle it; if it was really eating inside and out, he had enough reasons and ability to clean up the sect.

Ji Weidong was also not easy to deal with; standing from the standpoint of official business, he needed to give Li Xuewu an explanation.

As for Nie Liansheng, he never thought of sacrificing the other party, but this trip to Hong Kong was definitely extremely dangerous; it depended on his personal good fortune.

Having him accompany Bang Geng to Yingcheng could also help Seeing Gelin analyze the situation during this period.

Li Xuewu didn't care about Xi Yongzhong's disappearance, but he cared more about whether anyone would be bold enough to recklessly target other kids.

Instead of waiting for the other party to come to the door, it was better to put down bait and lure the fish to take the bait.

What? You ask where the bait is?

Isn't the half-grown boy who is solemnly clutching the train ticket and boarding the train to Yingcheng with his luggage bag the bait?

"Sorry, Director Zhou, for keeping you waiting."

As soon as Li Xuewu arrived at the airport, he received a reminder from the Foreign Affairs Office; Shenfei's head of delegation Zhou Zicheng and Deputy Factory Director Wang Xin had already arrived.

It was really a coincidence; clearly, it was scheduled for 9:30 in the morning, but the other party arrived at the airport at 8:30, making Li Xuewu unable to handle it.

Li Xuewu was also too simple; he never expected that Shenfei's people would have such a cunning side; who would believe that this wasn't intentional?

"It's rare to have the opportunity to take a luxury passenger plane; we were too excited and arrived early."

Zhou Zicheng was very open and took the initiative to step forward to shake hands with him.

"I have long heard that the Red Star Steel Group possesses a high-end business jet, but I have never had the opportunity to visit; today I have finally broadened my horizons."

"If someone else said this, I would believe it."

Li Xuewu smiled and let go of his hand, and shook hands with Wang Xin who stepped forward. At the same time, he teased Zhou Zicheng, "If you, the head of Shenfei, envy us, it wouldn't make sense, right, Deputy Factory Director Wang?"

"I am here with my eyes and ears today, only responsible for visiting and learning."

Wang Xin was even better at making things happen; after letting go of Li Xuewu's hand, he raised his eyebrows and emphasized his attitude.

"Look, I said the three-person negotiation team couldn't leave me alone in Liaodong."

Seeing his answer, Li Xuewu spread his hands helplessly and said, "They joined forces to bully me, and I had no power to parry."

"Hmm, if you say so, I really have to return that sentence to you, Secretary-General Li."

Zhou Zicheng raised his hand to invite him to sit on the sofa in the lounge, and joked, "I would believe this if you said it to others, but it doesn't make sense to tell us."

"Hahaha—"

A burst of laughter erupted in the airport lounge, making the service staff look over frequently.

Fengcheng Airport was naturally not as big as Beijing Airport, but the industrialization process here was earlier and more perfect; the Feng clique in the past had more money, and the airport was built more and more conveniently.

If you say the airport lounge is the most comfortable, Li Xuewu, who has experienced four cities by plane, has a comparison in his heart.

Beijing Airport's lounge is more modern, but also more serious and rigid.

Jin Ling Airport's lounge has better service, especially the internal management order of the airport.

Steel City Airport doesn't need to be mentioned; it's a temporary airport, only maintained for necessary use.

Finally, there is Fengcheng Airport; the equipment and facilities here are more luxurious and have more of a Republic of China style.

Li Xuewu thanked the waiter for the tea and looked at Zhou Zicheng, saying, "On the way here, I was still thinking about how to invite you to have lunch on the plane in a clever way without losing etiquette."

"Now that I see your interest in Red Star No. 1, I have dispelled this worry."

He moved the teacup aside and introduced with a smile, "Although I have only had a few experiences of dining on a plane, I can still determine that the novel feeling is more than the dining experience."

"That depends on the specific situation."

Zhou Zicheng looked at Wang Xin beside him with a smile, and then said to Li Xuewu, "If I were taking Red Star No. 1, then eating steamed buns would be happy and joyful."

"If you say so, then I can understand why our Director Li is so resistant to traveling by plane."

Li Xuewu smiled and said casually, "To tell you the truth, Director Li hasn't used this plane yet, including coming to Liaodong."

"Really or fake?" Zhou Zicheng looked at him in surprise and asked, "Why is this?"

"He said that taking a plane is not safe."

Li Xuewu smiled and said very casually, "The more responsible you are to the organization, the more cautious you should be in your behavior."

"This—" Wang Xin found it a bit funny, but couldn't laugh out loud, and could only endure it and say, "The probability of a plane crash is lower than a train, right?"

"Don't know." Li Xuewu shook his head and said with a smile, "Director Li might care more about the accident fatality rate."

"Still have to be full of confidence in aircraft." Zhou Zicheng seemed to understand the meaning behind Li Xuewu's words; he frowned slightly and thought, "Our aviation construction has already fallen behind the world's advanced level."

"This is the mission of our generation."

He tapped the sofa armrest with his finger, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Is Steel Flight's current research focus still only helicopters? Or the drones you introduced last time?"

"These are two projects, and also two units responsible."

Li Xuewu nodded slightly and explained, "Since Steel Flight received the KH-4 helicopter production line, it has been organizing relevant research activities."

"Including the subsequently launched Alouette 3 and Jaguar projects; these are three research groups."

He gestured with both hands and indicated, "And the three groups executing relevant research activities have formed a helicopter technology research working group with relevant research institutes of the Red Star Research Institute; this is a system."

"The drone project is not the responsibility of Steel Flight, and even the production work in the future will not be completed by Steel Flight; this is the task of the Electronics Factory."

Li Xuewu placed both hands on his folded right leg and explained simply, "The Red Star Research Institute has an independent aircraft research institute, and drone research is only one of the projects of the aircraft research institute."

"Red Star Research Institute—" Zhou Zicheng nodded seriously, and said with a thoughtful expression, "You have recruited quite a few scientific research personnel in the past few years; have you already formed the scale of a research institute?"

"Just built the framework."

Li Xuewu smiled modestly and introduced, "Currently, the Red Star Technology Research Institute only has eight research institutes and six research centers."

Only?

That's all?

What a niche word; Zhou Zicheng looked at Li Xuewu, who was making the introduction, seriously, wanting to determine if he was serious.

This sounded like bragging!

"With the support of Huaqing University and the Steel Institute, we have established these eight institutions: Physics Research Institute, Chemistry Research Institute, Manufacturing Engineering Research Institute, Fluid Mechanics Research Institute, Solid Mechanics Research Institute, Geological Science Research Institute, Metallurgical Engineering Research Institute, and Process Engineering Research Institute."

"The six research centers built additionally with practical needs are only six."

Li Xuewu smiled and introduced, "Vehicle Engineering Research Center, Shipbuilding Engineering Research Center, Food Engineering Research Center, Electronic Engineering Research Center, Aircraft Research Center, and Numerical Control Engineering Research Center."

"Doesn't the Red Star Steel Group also have its own United School?"

Wang Xin expressed his inner desire to explore, "I remember it has scientific research capabilities, right?"

Zhou Zicheng glanced at him speechlessly, muttering in his heart: You are really good at feeding him lines.

"After all, it's not professional."

Li Xuewu smiled reservedly and said, "Our United School's ability and level of running a school are very average; there are only 170-plus professors teaching, and the students' foundation is also very ordinary."

He pretended to sigh and said, "No way, it's all for industrial development."

Wang Xin:...

Zhou Zicheng glanced at him again, the corners of his mouth twitching helplessly.

Deserved! Who told you to lick his stinky feet!

Only 170-plus professors!

Look around the whole country; I'm afraid the industry authorities who are the only ones left are all in this "insignificant" United School mentioned by Li Xuewu.

"The full name of the United School is Red Star Steel Group Vocational Technical College."

Li Xuewu didn't care about the weird expressions of the two and continued to output the group's corporate culture.

Whether they listen or not is their business; whether he says it or not is his business.

When you go out, if you don't even dare to brag about your own group, how can you be called a group leader?

"Doesn't seem to have anything to do with 'United', right?"

Wang Xin spoke again; he also reacted under Zhou Zicheng's gaze, feeling that he had built a stage for the other side.

This kid Li Xuewu was addicted to singing, and had been bragging to them.

He wanted to find his place back, so naturally he had to block it at the key position.

It's just that Wang Xin thought he found a loophole in Li Xuewu's bragging, but the name of this loophole was "Bragging."

"United refers to the Red Star Steel Group Vocational Technical College being run with the support of Huaqing University, the Steel Institute, and other universities."

Li Xuewu explained actively, "Furthermore, United also refers to the Red Star Steel Group providing all educational channels from nursery to junior college for the group's employees' children and excellent social students."

"Thirdly, United also refers to the group's independent education system being able to provide excellent graduates for related units, especially joint construction units."

He finally circled the bend and pointed it at the two people's foreheads.

Do you understand?

As long as you cooperate with us, you won't have to cry and shout about lacking technical talent in the future.

It's just that this roundabout emphasis made Zhou Zicheng and Wang Xin feel a bit weird.

Lu Xun once said a sentence: a gentleman does not eat food given in contempt; this kind of welfare with routines, dogs... dogs don't want it, we want it!

Isn't this just sharing welfare!

As long as you join the joint construction enterprise club with the Red Star Steel Group as the core, you can enjoy the excellent technical talent continuously provided by the independent education system.

"You might not know much about our Vocational Technical College." Li Xuewu said with a smile, "It's rare to be a guest at our group this time; after the signing matters are handled, I will accompany you to look around more."

"Frankly speaking, I have heard that your group runs education and medical care well."

Zhou Zicheng nodded and had to admit, "In this regard, our Shenfei should learn more from the Red Star Steel Group."

When saying the latter sentence, he also looked at Wang Xin beside him, as if he were confirming and seeking his opinion.

Wang Xin nodded and agreed with his point of view.

"We are also still in the stage of summarizing experience, taking one step at a time."

Li Xuewu grasped the rhythm of the conversation very well, pulling and dragging, very skilled.

Fishing, he is an amateur.

Fishing for people, he is a professional.

"This year is the third year of the Vocational Technical College organizing the school; next year will be a harvest year; the fruit depends on the coming year."

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "Currently, the Vocational Technical College is divided into three parts: Junior College Department, Secondary Specialized Department, and Training Station."

"The Junior College Department possesses 20 higher professional technical colleges such as Metallurgical Engineering College, Shipbuilding Engineering College, Food Engineering College, etc."

"The Secondary Specialized Department possesses 20 primary and intermediate technical professional classes such as mechanical control major, financial management major, fire emergency major, etc."

He raised his head slightly and looked at the two, saying, "The group integrated resources and attributed all business related to training and education of various units to the training station of the Vocational Technical College, such as security training, etc., possessing 10 regular training classes."

"We also run professional universities."

Wang Xin sat up straight and introduced seriously, "It was in response to the superior's call, mobilizing some professors to form the 7-2-1 College."

He wanted to get back a bit of face, so as not to be defeated on the negotiating table at Shenfei.

Before the cooperation framework agreement was signed, all contacts and exchanges between the two sides were negotiations.

Although there was no negotiating table here, and both sides didn't have a tense atmosphere, the negotiating table was invisible, and the negotiation was tangible.

Wang Xin's unwillingness was all seen by Li Xuewu; what does this count as?

The enemy not only didn't surrender but dared to counterattack us? If the machine gun doesn't satisfy you, you force me to use cannons to bombard you!

"The construction of the 7-2-1 College is indeed very necessary; we have also done corresponding work."

Li Xuewu stepped on the face Wang Xin had just picked up and introduced, "However, our group focuses more on the training and learning of employees in terms of relevant curriculum setting and personnel training."

"For example, training and learning of technologies such as mechanism technology and equipment, electronic automation, etc."

He emphasized, "The training and education of newcomers are important, but the training and re-learning of old employees are also very necessary."

The two, who had already been shocked by the Red Star Steel Group's 20 professional colleges, 20 technical majors, and multiple training classes, were silent in unison.

No matter how Li Xuewu pulled and introduced, they didn't take the bait anymore.

Really boring, really can't be beaten.

Li Xuewu couldn't wait for the two people's answer, so he could only helplessly sound the retreat and end this topic hastily.

The three were silent for a long time; Zhou Zicheng, who had been looking at the direction of the machine tool parking apron for a long time, suddenly turned around, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "You have your own passenger plane; are you planning to engage in civil aviation?"

"This is just a test."

Li Xuewu didn't deny it, nor did he confirm it, just said frankly, "Our Director Li is very optimistic about the future of aircraft."

Hmm??

A row of question marks flashed on Wang Xin's forehead; Director Li, who is very optimistic about the future of aircraft, doesn't like taking planes.

"That is to say, you don't exclude forming a civil aviation system, right?"

Zhou Zicheng seemed very interested in this topic, chased Li Xuewu and asked, "Does expanding the aircraft manufacturing industry also have a relationship with this goal?"

"But you are engaged in helicopter manufacturing; isn't that off-track?"

"Hehe, you think too highly of us." Li Xuewu laughed lightly, "If there is food to eat, eat it; it's better than losing the watermelon and picking up sesame seeds."

"At the beginning, only the helicopter manufacturing project was placed in front of us; where did we have a choice."

He said in a teasing tone, "Still have to be content; after all, we are tertiary industry."

Zhou Zicheng tilted his neck, looked at him and didn't want to speak; this kid is too bad at chatting.

"Tertiary industry is doing better than us." He also learned Li Xuewu's sarcasm, raised his eyebrows and said, "There was no choice before, but now Steel Flight is developing so well, why didn't you think about building big planes?"

"Haven't even studied helicopters clearly, and dare to think about big planes?"

Li Xuewu shook his head bitterly and said, "From starting the factory until now, we only have three models of helicopters in our hands; we are new recruits in this industry and still have to continue learning."

This can't be chatted anymore; three sentences don't leave bragging!

Zhou Zicheng had already tried his best to fight with him with bayonets, but still lost.

He is just too concerned about face, not as shameless as Li Xuewu, willing to go down.

After all, he is a head of delegation, so he must have restraint.

Then how does Wang Xin, as the deputy factory director, think? At this time, not going up seems a bit sorry for Shenfei's cultivation.

"That is to say, Steel Flight has a plan to build big planes in the future."

He followed the pit dug by Director Zhou and continued to rush forward, wanting to chase Li Xuewu into the pit.

But who is Li Xuewu? He is the kind of person who has to live broadcast even when peeing in the hutong.

Want to fight for the initiative of the topic with him?

Go dream—

"Who doesn't want to build big planes?"

Li Xuewu looked at him with a smile and asked back, "Shenfei wouldn't be thinking about building small planes, right?" 【

Some people said that once a department head possessed the power to directly influence the interests of department personnel, it would create soil for corruption.

It's not wrong to say this, but it needs to be viewed dialectically; is systematic distribution of bonuses fair and reasonable?

Where are there absolute problems?

Bonus distribution would have reporting channels, and there would also be follow-up investigations by the personnel department, and even more supervision by the supervisory department; who would jump in?

As long as the supervisory department took decisive action and did practical work, there would be no one who would jump down desperately in the face of such obvious loopholes.

Besides risks, did giving department heads the power to distribute bonuses have no advantages?

Of course there were; otherwise, the group wouldn't have set it up this way; it was to form a united working atmosphere and to improve employees' enthusiasm for work.

It was also to digest the profit space that the group could not fully use.

If it were the Red Star Plant period, income and expenditure were on two lines, and the factory had no financial initiative at all.

All expenditures depended on appropriations and budgets; if it exceeded, just wait to be cleaned up.

Since the Red Star Plant borrowed the university study activities and relevant policies to avoid financial collection conditions and carried out the construction of tertiary industry, accumulating a large amount of funds, it had the ability of groupization.

After groupization, it had a certain degree of control over the profits obtained from enterprise operations.

Including appropriations for coordination and handling, if it couldn't be used up for reasonable reasons, it was a pity to be taken back by the above.

Because once so many appropriations and policies couldn't be used up, the superior would cut off the unused part of this year when making the budget next year.

The superior would theoretically think that the enterprise didn't need so much budget, so it was allocated to other enterprises.

This set of theories basically applied to all enterprises at present, and even public institutions.

In addition to operating expenses, the Red Star Steel Group had bonus expenditures starting this year.

Because the industrial leadership group had a unique management structure and served Secretary-General Li Xuewu directly, the procedure for applying for bonuses was particularly convenient.

And Li Xuewu could see their hard work with his own eyes, so he signed the bonuses very quickly.

This year was the third year Zhou Peilan participated in work, and also the second year after completing her internship.

According to the position salary setting, because she was a university graduate, she was a first-level clerk when she started working, enjoying the 23rd-level position salary of the cadre post, which was 49 yuan 5 mao.

When she became a regular employee last year, the position rank was automatically promoted to the clerk level, enjoying the 22nd-level position salary, which was 56 yuan. This was also her current position salary, also called basic salary.

In addition to position salary, she could get a bonus subsidy floating up and down by 10% every month.

That is to say, she could get a salary treatment of more than 60 yuan every month, and at most could even get 64 yuan 4 mao 5 fen.

For a female comrade, being able to earn so much money at an unmarried age, should her life have been corrupted long ago?

Zhou Peilan really wanted to say that she also wanted to experience a bit of petty-bourgeois sentiment, but unfortunately, she didn't have time.

No rest on Saturday, depends on the situation on weekends.

It was impossible for the office to leave only one person on duty; the four of them had to support each other.

What kind of work intensity is only resting two days a month; it's really not too much to take a bonus.

It's just that being able to earn the living expenses of five or six people in an ordinary family in a month, this girl actually still cared about a meat bun.

Hmm, Li Xuewu took a bite of the zucchini meat bun she couldn't bear to eat, and didn't even eat a piece of meat diced even if he stuffed it all into his mouth.

This is also called a meat bun?

If it were in later generations, it would be criticized by hanging lamps.

But it was common in this era; being able to eat the taste of meat was considered meat, not to mention that white flour was not much cheaper than meat filling.

Let's just say the Red Star Steel Group, being able to provide meat buns in the cafeteria; go look at other industrial enterprises, it's not bad to be able to eat enough.

Working to solve the employees' food and clothing problem was the work Li Huai De cared about most since he served as the director of the Management Committee, and it was also the work Li Xuewu focused on implementing in every position he held.

Now it has to be said that the "Sea Carriage Driver" is really powerful; one ship after another of pork was sent in, which really enriched the meat food supply channels in the Northeast region.

The Red Star Steel Group Trade Management Center basically didn't face the outside, and the transaction method determined that only related enterprises could obtain corresponding commodity supply.

Li Xuewu could ask for five tons or ten tons of meat food with one phone call, which was also based on the huge meat food import channels.

Shipping a ship of pork in wouldn't have the "Prawn" ship chasing you relentlessly, and even intentionally ignoring it.

But if you want to ship a ship of electrical appliances in, then it's over, because the Red Star Steel Group Steel City Electronics Factory produces various electrical appliances, and even exports them.

Basically, this is the principle; as long as the Northeast region can produce it itself, and even guarantee basic supply, it won't be let in.

Even if the "Prawn" ship can't catch you, someone will announce your information.

Relatively safe are industrial parts, the kind that are particularly scarce domestically; they don't even fear the "Prawn" boarding the ship for inspection on the grounds of supporting industrial production.

Li Xuewu was already thinking about Fengcheng while eating a bun.

Xi Yongzhong's disappearance looked like an accident, but it was very likely inevitable.

When the project operates to a certain extent, there will be bottlenecks, and even backlash.

The occurrence of all problems has traces to follow, such as the tracing of clues.

Seeing Gelin and his people were no longer in Fengcheng; receiving news from Nie Liansheng, they were already at the Yingcheng Port wharf, unfolding targeted investigations.

According to Li Xuewu's request, see the person alive, see the corpse if dead.

"Leader, according to what you said, I have already sent the snacks over."

After Zhang Enyuan got in the car, he reported to the leader who was resting with his eyes closed in the back seat.

He didn't know what exactly happened; he only received instructions from the Secretary-General after returning from Steel Flight, and went to the service department to buy 20 yuan of snacks and sent them to Zhou Peilan.

The expression on Zhou Peilan's face when she received the snacks was still spinning in his mind.

The other party was just blushing, stammering and not wanting to accept it, but not so determined.

Zhang Enyuan didn't dare to guess wildly; the Secretary-General couldn't have any ideas about Zhou Peilan, because even if he had ideas and wanted to take care of the other party, he wouldn't let him come forward, and the gift sent shouldn't be snacks, and he wouldn't send so many snacks to the other party in front of so many people.

You have to know that the snacks in the service department were not cheap, and there were almost no channels to obtain these products; they were all sold abroad.

And the snacks in the service department were liked by almost all the girls in the organs.

Zhou Peilan had the ability to buy them, but she hadn't seen her eat them a few times.

This time the Secretary-General was so generous, 20 yuan at one shot, which really made the other party's chin drop.

Not to mention how the Secretary-General who sent the snacks felt, even he, the runner, felt surprised.

As for what the relationship was, Zhang Enyuan felt it didn't matter anymore.

Look at the expressions of other comrades in the office and you would know; does this count as a personal reward from the leader?

"Leader, we have arrived at your residence."

Zhang Enyuan's wording was very precise and had a sense of scale; he would absolutely not say that this was the leader's home.

Li Xuewu had never emphasized these, and followed his address.

"Hmm, a bit earlier tomorrow morning."

Li Xuewu seemed to have taken a nap, gave him an instruction after opening his eyes, and got out of the car from the door opened by the driver.

"Then I will come to pick you up at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning."

Zhang Enyuan also got out of the car, asked across the car, "I don't know if you need me to accompany you?"

"Forget it, you don't need to run this time."

Li Xuewu stood on the steps and thought for a while, looked back at him and said, "If there is a problem, contact me in time; there are only a few phone numbers."

"I understand, don't worry."

When responding to this sentence, Zhang Enyuan was already standing on this side of the car, at the position closest to Li Xuewu.

On the self-cultivation of a secretary.

Li Xuewu had never emphasized or required him, but he always had to understand some rules.

If the work is not done perfectly, and the service cannot satisfy the leader, then he should stop doing it.

"Wu Shu—"

Team Leader Jia got off work even later than Li Xuewu; Li Xuewu entered the courtyard and he also just came back.

"Didn't help do things at home?"

Li Xuewu looked back at him and continued to walk into the house.

Bang Geng looked at his back guiltily, but still followed with his steps.

"I went to say goodbye to friends."

He explained relaxedly, "After all, we met once; who knows when I'll be back."

"Are you so sure you will leave Steel City for Fengcheng?" Li Xuewu said amusedly, "I didn't promise you anything."

"Hey, it's the time when people are needed."

Bang Geng followed him like a tail and emphasized, "If I don't help you, who else can you trust."

"Don't worry, I won't lose face for you when I go to Fengcheng, and I won't add trouble to them."

He raised his hand to guarantee, "I will do my best to help them solve problems..."

"Hehe, solve what problems?"

Li Xuewu walked into the living room with a light laugh and nodded to Zhou Wang Yamei who came down from upstairs.

Zhou Wang Yamei also looked at Bang Geng's clumsy performance amusedly, shook her head slightly and went to the kitchen.

The reason she hadn't left yet was because Li Xuewu was about to return to Beijing, and she was a bit worried.

She was even more worried about Fu Zhidong being at home alone, but career and family couldn't be taken care of at the same time; she always had to make trade-offs.

So with Li Xuewu's help, she hired a nanny to take care of Fu Zhidong's life.

Fu Zhidong's most excellent point was being precocious, understanding the ways of the world early.

His mother was busy with work, rushing between Beijing and Steel City, just to provide him with a better learning environment; he could naturally understand all this.

Furthermore, Beijing was the place closest to his uncle, and the United School was even within his uncle's unit.

The more she felt sorry for her son's obedience and understanding, the more helpless she felt about Bang Geng's naughtiness.

How did Qin Huairu raise the child to be like this? Was it free-range?

"Didn't you say someone went missing?"

Bang Geng followed him to the sofa, leaned to his side and said softly, "I can still do a little thing; children have small targets."

"Stay at home and study with your Aunt Zhou; what help can you provide with your level."

Li Xuewu deliberately ignored him and reached out to turn on the radio.

Seeing that he really didn't look like he was going to take him to Fengcheng, Bang Geng emphasized anxiously, "Really, I have already prepared to sacrifice for the organization; I have the determination to do well..."

"Organization? What organization?"

Li Xuewu raised his head, his gaze playfully looking at him and asking, "Steel City Hero Guerrilla Team?"

"Ah? That..." Bang Geng panicked all of a sudden; he didn't have any preparation.

Wu Shu was so busy, how could he have time to pay attention to him? Even if he almost let it slip last night, it wouldn't be enough for Wu Shu to guess everything.

"You'd better think clearly before speaking."

Li Xuewu propped himself up on the sofa, stood up, and walked to the bathroom; he had to take a bath.

Bang Geng's face in the living room was red and white; he really wasn't sure how Wu Shu knew.

He passionately recognized the one-sided dialogue he heard from Wu Shu as his own career.

Fengcheng was in trouble, and he was naturally duty-bound in Steel City.

If it weren't for the fact that his team members needed to go to school, he would have dared to take his brothers and fight over there.

Kill gods if gods block, kill Buddhas if Buddhas block.

Let's put it this way, the current Bang Geng was extremely powerful, and even dared to take action against adults.

He, who was in puberty, urgently needed a success to prove his value.

And Fengcheng was his destination for showing off and bragging to his team members.

Not to mention that the few people he beat up miserably that day were looking for him, how should Team Leader Jia explain to his brothers if he couldn't go to Fengcheng?

Once dreamed of walking the world with a sword, but canceled the original plan because he was too fat?

"Wu Shu—"

Bang Geng stood at the door of the bathroom, hesitated across the door and said, "I didn't bully anyone; it was all the helpless result of my chivalry."

"Oh—helpless—"

Li Xuewu's voice was leisurely, coming from the bathroom.

"It seems you've been reading a lot lately, even the explanation is so logical."
