Chapter 677: Dongfeng Construction

~36 min read 7,030 words

"Thank you for your understanding, and I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."

Yu Yao's mother thanked Li Xue and looked at Zuo Yan Jie, saying, "Xiao Yan Jie, this time it's Auntie and Uncle Yu who owe you a favor; we will definitely repay it."

"No need, Auntie Zheng."

Zuo Yan Jie twitched his mouth, wanting to give a smiling expression but couldn't.

Yu Yao's mother patted Zuo Yan Jie's hand with understanding and said, "No need to say anything, Auntie understands, understands. Let's get along more in the future."

After finishing, she looked at Li Xue and asked politely, "Director Li, I wonder if you have time tonight? I would like to invite you and Xiao Yan Jie to a meal. What do you think?"

"There's no need."

Li Xue glanced at Zuo Yan Jie and said, "This matter is just a case when placed with me. If you parents could all handle it actively in time, there wouldn't be so many things."

After finishing, he placed his hand on the pile of materials and said, "I also advise you, no matter how busy work is, you must take care of the family. You can't delay work because of the child, and end up not taking care of either."

"Yes, that's how it is."

Yu Yao's mother nodded and said, "When I go back, I'll discuss it with his father. The child is grown up and can't keep wandering like this; we have to find him some proper work."

After finishing, she looked at Zuo Yan Jie and asked, "How did your parents tell you? Is there a destination yet?"

"Not yet."

Zuo Yan Jie smiled helplessly and said, "My dad told me to listen to the arrangements; wherever I'm assigned, I'll go."

"Your dad is also busy."

Yu Yao's mother looked at Zuo Yan Jie again, had a plan in her heart, and when looking at Li Xue, she didn't chat about this topic anymore.

"Actually, Yu Yao's father was an old subordinate of Gu Can; they were all from the same base area."

Yu Yao's mother only mentioned the relationship to Li Xue after the matter was settled, but she mentioned it with restraint, not saying everything.

"I heard it from the Wang family's child, so I remembered it, but I was too embarrassed to call Sister Ding."

Speaking of this, she asked Li Xue, "Sister Ding is doing well in Yangcheng, right?"

"It's okay, mainly to take care of my father-in-law; his health isn't very good."

Li Xue also heard the meaning in her words. Being able to know that his mother-in-law went to Yangcheng meant the relationship wasn't far.

And since she wasn't there for his wedding, it meant the relationship wasn't very close either.

So now that something happened, she didn't dare to call easily, fearing that calling wouldn't be of any use.

The Gu family's son-in-law was rumored to be quite a figure in their ears; they knew the young man they found was a character.

They all knew Li Xue's situation before the wedding, and they saw the scene of the Gu family's wedding even more clearly.

Now that a month had passed, there were still people mentioning that wedding from time to time, and the envy in their eyes could still be seen.

For those marrying off daughters, they would all compare the Gu family's son-in-law in their hearts.

They were also quite capable, having inquired about Li Xue's situation clearly, even his temper and character, just to avoid saying the wrong thing when talking.

"Sigh~ His father is the same. In '53, he followed Gu Can's arrangement and went to H Division, and now he's busy with the Third Front on the front line. His health is also very tired."

Yu Yao's mother said some emotional words and asked about the situation of Zuo Yan Jie's father, not neglecting him.

The three of them chatted about family life for a while, and Yu Yao was brought back.

This time when he came back, his clothes were complete, and his shoes were put back on, only the bullet on his neck was gone.

"Director Li, thank you so much, and I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."

Yu Yao's mother stood up to say goodbye to Li Xue, saying polite words, and also pulled Zuo Yan Jie to stand up.

Li Xue stood up slowly, glanced at Yu Yao, and said, "I just told your mother, if you feel uncomfortable staying at home, you can come back."

"No... won't anymore."

Yu Yao had washed his face, but the slaps he received yesterday still hurt, so the muscles on his face twitched when he spoke.

"If you cause trouble again, no one will come to pick you up."

Yu Yao's mother said, then looked at Zuo Yan Jie and said, "He's just tight-skinned. If he provokes you again, give him a slap."

Zuo Yan Jie followed Auntie Zheng's hand and stretched forward, but didn't really hit Yu Yao; instead, he stretched out his hand and signaled to Yu Yao.

Yu Yao licked his lips, shook hands with Zuo Yan Jie awkwardly, and said, "I'm really sorry, brother, I was really a bastard."

Zuo Yan Jie shook his hand and didn't speak, trying his best to learn Li Xue's appearance, looking like an adult.

Li Xue stood on the side and nodded, saying, "Alright, your mother has said what she needed to say, and Zuo Yan Jie has forgiven you. This case will be kept with me for now."

"If I see you learning from others to be a leader again, I'll catch you back to eat bullets."

"Won't anymore~ won't anymore~"

Yu Yao no longer had the arrogance and stubbornness he had with Li Xue yesterday, so it could be seen that he was someone who could be reasoned with.

He sent the mother and son out, and Li Xue turned back, signaling Zuo Yan Jie to sit down and talk.

"Thank you, Wu Ge."

Zuo Yan Jie sat down and thanked Li Xue.

If Li Xue hadn't stood up for him yesterday, and if Li Xue hadn't helped him vent his anger today, this trouble would never have stopped.

As long as he stayed away from that circle, he would be targeted by that circle.

It was like crabs in a bucket; if one wanted to climb up, everyone would be dragged down.

"Don't mention it."

Li Xue picked up the materials on the sofa armrest, walked out the door, signaled to Xiao Hu to file them, then walked into the room to refill his teacup with hot water, and asked at the same time: "Are you satisfied? Do you want me to call someone to help you get your face back?"

"Forget it, no need. I don't want to hang out with them anymore; face and such are useless."

Zuo Yan Jie spread his hands, looked at Li Xue, and asked, "Last time you said you would arrange something for me to do. Can I help you?"

"There is something."

Li Xue took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup, and said, "There's a friend who has an engineering team and wants to use some professional talent."

"Oh, are you building a house? Or..."

After finishing, he remembered the construction site to the east and asked, "Is it a renovation team?"

"No, it's not."

Li Xue took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup, and said, "There's a friend who has an engineering team and wants to use some professional talent."

"Oh, I have to ask my dad about this; there should be some."

Zuo Yan Jie scratched his chin, looked at Li Xue, and asked, "Is it urgent? My dad doesn't let me make calls; if there's something, I can only write letters."

"Hehe, not urgent."

Li Xue looked at Zuo Yan Jie's upbringing, which was actually quite good, laughed, and then said, "Tell your dad, if there are retired or transferred soldiers, they can be considered. The unit is in Beijing, and they can arrange household registration, but they don't provide housing."

"Got it."

Zuo Yan Jie nodded, remembered Li Xue's words clearly, and then asked, "Do you want me to go to that engineering team to work too?"

"Not necessarily, it depends on you."

Li Xue lit a cigarette, signaled to Zuo Yan Jie, and seeing he didn't want it, threw it on the tea table.

"I want you to go to the club; that side needs someone in charge, but you have to start learning from scratch."

"Club? For playing?"

Zuo Yan Jie seemed very interested in this, his eyes jumping as he asked, "Is it a place for singing and dancing? We have that in our compound; there are these programs on holidays."

"Hehe, maybe. There should be in the future."

Li Xue scratched his side face with the hand holding the cigarette and said, "But now it's a sports club, mainly for people in our system to gather together to exercise professional skills."

"Exercise? Where is it? Can I go see it?"

Zuo Yan Jie was young after all, and hearing this made him curious, thinking that the club must have many fun things.

If he could work and play, this life would be beautiful.

Li Xue stood up, walked back to the desk, wrote a note, and then handed it to Zuo Yan Jie, who walked over.

"Go to this location, just say I asked you to go, find Following Lou Jie, and she will arrange for you."

"Oh, okay, Wu Ge."

Zuo Yan Jie looked at the address on the note and the text on the note, smiled, and nodded.

"Go, work hard, don't jump or make trouble, be steady."

Li Xue didn't stand up either, gave instructions to Zuo Yan Jie, and then lowered his head to start working.

Zuo Yan Jie moved the teacup Li Xue left on the tea table to Li Xue's hand, and then walked out quietly.

Xiao Hu glanced at Zuo Yan Jie, secretly envious in his heart, thinking that this might be another child from some family.

The remarks about leaders having backgrounds and connections weren't fresh topics in the Public Security Brigade, but it was only confirmed today.

When making the statement for Yu Yao, he asked about Yu Yao's family relationship, which gave him a shock.

Yu Yao's mother was just average, but Yu Yao's father was a cadre with a high rank.

But here at the director's place, cadres of this rank were received casually, and the children who made mistakes were beaten as soon as they were beaten, and the key was that the parents didn't dare to speak or manage them.

Actually, he didn't know that after walking out of the gate of the Public Security Brigade, Yu Yao followed his mother to push the bicycle out, and after passing the alley entrance, he was asked by his mother.

"Was it that Li Xue who beat you?"

"Mom~"

Yu Yao glanced at the surroundings and said with his head down, "Don't mention it."

"You still know it's shameful!"

Yu Yao's mother scolded him, then warned, "Go back and reflect well; don't leave the house until you find a job."

After finishing, she looked at her son's side face with some heartache and asked, "Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"No... no need."

Yu Yao reached out and touched his face, saying, "The beating he gave me only hurt at the time; it was the beating last night that was severe."

"They beat you? Where did they beat you? Is it serious?"

Yu Yao's mother didn't know what kind of attitude the powerful departments at this time had toward these little troublemakers.

She wasn't heartbroken for her son, but afraid that he had been beaten badly.

Yu Yao dodged his mother's gaze and said, "No, it's fine, it just hurt at the time."

After finishing, he twitched his mouth and reached out to touch his inner thigh.

Yu Yao's mother glanced at him and said, "Deserved! See if you learn your lesson. Falling into his hands, being able to walk out properly, you have to borrow Zuo Yan Jie's light."

Yu Yao didn't dare to refute his mother's words, pouted, and said, "It's all Fork's fault for being bad, the guy set me up, see if I don't beat the shit out of him."

"Still dare to cause trouble."

Yu Yao's mother scared him, "If you fall into his hands again, you'll really eat bullets, and even your dad won't be able to help."

"I'll hide far away from him!"

Yu Yao looked back at the gate with the guard with some fear, his heart beating fast.

When he came last night, he was pushed, so he couldn't see the surrounding environment. Now that he saw it clearly, this unit looked very awesome at first glance.

The only one who could be the head here could only be Li Li Erbala.

He had really only heard of Li Li Erbala's name before and hadn't seen Li Li Erbala's person. He really didn't notice the scar on his face yesterday, and didn't take it seriously.

Now he knew how powerful he was, and his legs were shaking a bit.

Never coming to this place again!

Li Xue was also busy. Wang Wang Xiaoqin wasn't there, busy with recruiting people, and he had to manage the work of the Public Security Brigade again.

Plus the work of the steel mill Security Division, the club's affairs, and family affairs, he had been running around for more than ten days.

June 14th, which was Saturday, nearly ten days had passed since the last meeting to discuss the division of labor, and the work of the steel mill was proceeding in a tense and orderly manner.

Yu Min took over the Engineering Division and also officially started managing the residential area project.

This Monday, with the propaganda of the factory broadcasting station, and the cooperation of the factory newspaper, bulletin boards, and propaganda columns, a notice was issued regarding the residential area project in the factory.

Compared to the extreme and targeted nature of what Li Xue said, the labor and allocation plan for the residential area project formulated by Yu Min after coordinating with Factory Director Yang Yang Fengshan and several other leaders was released.

Li Xue read the briefing. It could be said to be very gentle, very policy-oriented, and considered very comprehensively.

It wasn't much different from the plan locked in his drawer. There might be some discrepancies in the details, but the overall direction was consistent. After all, it was an idea he gave Yu Min.

The recruitment for compulsory labor for the residential area project limited several conditions: young and strong, non-formal workers, non-temporary workers, and only children of workers whose family information belonged to the top 20% of the severity of housing problems could apply.

When engaged in compulsory labor, it was no longer like the loose sand of the past; after the recruitment ended, they would be managed in the form of labor teams and labor groups.

Labor work points would be calculated according to the daily labor intensity and labor time, managed uniformly, and ranked uniformly.

Regarding the housing area of the three buildings in the first phase of the residential area, as well as the relevant design changes, the workers were also informed.

At the same time, the allocation plan issued, combined with labor points, total number of family members, degree of disaster difficulty, and special donation points, formulated a fair and reasonable percentage coefficient calculation formula, which was fair and reasonable, and clear at a glance.

The most controversial part of this plan might be the special donation point system.

Special donations were divided into several segments according to the quota system and the ranking table of disaster difficulty, divided by percentage. How many people could donate in each segment, and how much each household could donate at most.

It guaranteed the housing needs of the most difficult workers to the greatest extent, and could also raise funds for the second phase of residential buildings within a slow space.

On the evening the plan was announced, people went to the homes of those workers who ranked high to buy that quota.

Selling that quota, their ranking points were still there, but it was hard to say if those behind would surpass them. Theoretically, the ones at the very front wouldn't have the problem of not being allocated housing, and every stage was like this.

But at the same time, they also lost a chance for their children to enter the factory. Now that work was so hard to find, everyone was very hesitant.

They were hesitant, but the people collecting the quotas didn't dare to hesitate. The top 1% was a grade, 65 households, and only 12 quotas were given.

3% was a grade, and there were only 26 quotas.

And so on, until the three buildings were fully allocated, there were a total of 101 formal worker quotas.

Each grade segment only had one quota per household. 65 households, the first 12 households to pay were the deadline, and the 13th household wouldn't work.

And those in the first grade couldn't go to the second grade to pay, so those collecting quotas also brought the money and had to pay it on the same day they bought the quota.

This allocation mode was already very fair. Those without money and those who needed housing most urgently weren't affected.

And the remaining 101 households could wait for the second phase to be completed. By then, they would be the most advanced, and their housing would definitely be guaranteed by then.

Three buildings, 504 households, three buildings in the first phase, the first phase could provide over 200,000 yuan in funds for the second phase.

Yu Min took the Engineering Division people to find designers to change the plan overnight, change the delivery standards, and calculate the manpower of the compulsory labor team into it, reducing the cost per square meter to 25 yuan.

That is to say, the cost of building a residential building was compressed to 94,500 yuan.

This amount was already the lowest. Yu Min had the 202,000 yuan raised for the first phase, and the gap for the second phase was only 81,500 yuan.

Yu Min also thought about this 80,000 yuan. There was less than three months left for the first phase to be completed. How could the projects on Li Huai De's side not generate profits in these three months?

80,000 yuan, three months—if they couldn't even raise this, then Li Huai De shouldn't run any projects, and should just close the stall early.

Each phase could raise 200,000 for the next phase, and each phase had a gap of over 80,000. Yu Min's pressure was instantly reduced.

Including the workers, there were discussions about this donation plan, but the end of each phase was the front end of the next phase, so their opposition wasn't strong.

If they weren't at the front, and their demand for housing wasn't high, the opposition was also not strong.

The Engineering Division's announcement also said that the houses currently being built were only security-type houses, and the area was just a bit small. If the financial pressure decreased in the future and the ability to raise funds increased, the area would increase accordingly.

The current situation was that whoever was anxious would live in them, and if they lived in them now, they wouldn't have them later.

Housing donations were also the same: spend more money, live in a house first, and get a factory entry quota for free. Spending money naturally had the reason for spending money.

So as soon as the plan came out, there were many who supported it and few who opposed it.

As for the reason why there were many who supported it, Li Xue and the others also talked about it as a joke in private, saying that Deputy Factory Director Yu Min had to go to the Discipline Inspection Commission to thank Deputy Factory Director Deng.

If it weren't for Deputy Factory Director Deng trying his best to ruin the residential area project, the workers in the factory wouldn't have raised their expectations for this project so high, but their tolerance would have dropped so low.

Now everyone was looking forward to housing allocation; whoever dared to make trouble in this would probably be beaten.

The voices of opposition were quickly suppressed by the voices of approval and support, and the residential area project was able to quickly resume construction, and all construction workers were concentrated on the construction site of the three buildings in the first phase, and the construction speed naturally improved.

According to everyone's estimation, it was said to be a three-month construction period, but working like this, it probably wouldn't even take more than a month.

The Third Construction Team of the Beijing Steel Mill was cleared out of the site, and the construction fees were deducted by Yu Min, asking the Beijing Steel Mill to give an explanation for the small actions of their construction team, otherwise, they wouldn't get the money.

Give an explanation for a fart; clearly people had been caught, what explanation was there? It was just shamelessly refusing to give money.

On this point, the woman's advantage was brought into play, and the other party really didn't dare to bare their teeth at Yu Min.

Including Yang Yang Yuansong and Yang Yang Fengshan, they all gave high evaluations to the changes that occurred after the Engineering Division and the residential area project were handed over to Yu Min.

Feng Daocong didn't even rest on the weekend. Seeing Yu Min open up the situation here, he also returned to the ministry. The notice came on Wednesday, and the three-month construction funds were down.

The factory was really lively this time. Yu Min was in charge of the Propaganda Division, so you tell me what to propagate this week.

Li Xue stood in front of the office window, looking at the construction site of the residential area, and could even hear the "dang dang" sound of construction from the construction site in his ears.

With order, funds, and workers, this construction site was naturally booming.

Li Xue turned his head and glanced at Dou Dou Yaozu sitting on the sofa, asking with a smile, "Aren't you going to the construction site to watch?"

"Hehe, someone is watching. I don't stare at one place all the time now; there's a lot of work."

Dou Dou Yaozu still had that honest and simple face, and his dark face, tanned by daily outdoor labor, was full of the imprints of time—wrinkles.

Sitting in Li Xue's office, he always felt a bit of pressure. Perhaps it was because Li Xue's desk was relatively high and the sofa was relatively low, so he had to lift his head slightly when looking over there.

It could also be the painting hanging on the wall behind Li Xue's desk, which made Li Xue's desk position look very solemn and majestic.

A painting of the Great Wall in late autumn, with a red background setting off the magnificence and grandeur of the Great Wall.

The pass of the Great Wall and the steps, as well as the magnificent scenery around, didn't that represent continuous progress?

Li Xue was also happy to see Dou Dou Yaozu's progress; at least he could slowly adapt from the identity of a laborer to the identity of a manager.

When he saw him last time, he was still equipped with a small assistant. When he saw him this time, Dou Dou Yaozu's construction team had already won the construction contract for the steel mill's residential area project.

Li Xue didn't speak for him in front of Yu Min, and he didn't beg Li Xue here; he just honestly did things and honestly behaved.

When checking the construction units for the residential area project, Yu Min discovered this family, which wasn't considered very capable, and even the time of establishment wasn't long, among them.

She carefully looked at the relevant materials and actually inspected the construction situation of the project, and talked to Dou Dou Yaozu through the project manager.

The time it was scheduled was after eight o'clock in the evening, but by the time it was his turn to talk, it was almost midnight.

There were several units talking together, and Dou Dou Yaozu's Dongfeng Construction was the last one.

For the convenience of management and to speed up the construction progress, Yu Min talked to the units used in the past, asking about their ideas for saving costs and rationally allocating the compulsory labor team.

The people who went in to talk earlier were already very dissatisfied with being called to talk late at night, and then hearing that the steel mill's requirements were so many and that they had to compress the cost of construction workers, they were unwilling as soon as they heard it.

They were all proper units with formal workers; if they didn't work, they still had to pay so much money. How could they use the steel mill's people instead of their own, reducing construction funds?

So when Dou Dou Yaozu watched the person in charge of one unit after another leave with a gloomy face, he was still a bit timid and nervous when he was called in to talk.

But after hearing Yu Min's requirements, Dou Dou Yaozu didn't care too much, because his construction team was very flexible: work, have money; don't work, no money.

And even for those old workers who were particularly core, the treatment was the same: no work, no money.

At this time, counting the whole of the four nine cities, the big construction teams that could take on work were Dou Dou Yaozu's here.

His situation was too special; all the work was arranged by Li Xue. As long as he looked at the design drawings well and arranged the workers well, it would be fine.

Even the unit name was given by Li Xue. If it weren't for the convenience of accounting, such a unit wouldn't have been created.

It was still a small unit in the street; I'm afraid Director Wang over there didn't even know that this small construction team had taken on so many big projects.

Yu Min's requirements for compressing costs and using the steel mill's compulsory labor team as basic labor were all answered very satisfactorily on Dou Dou Yaozu's side.

The only difficulty was whether Dou Dou Yaozu had professional personnel to guarantee the construction quality of the residential buildings.

This problem was still solved by Li Xue for him. Although he had old workers in his hand, they were all engaged in garden ancient architecture in the past, but the construction of current buildings was still very complex.

When Yu Min asked him for relevant materials, Dou Dou Yaozu directly gave her more than ten personal profiles, all of whom were retired or transferred engineering soldiers.

In recent years, the placement of retired and transferred personnel had become increasingly severe, especially those with rural household registration, who had a great possibility of being unable to get urban household registration and could only return to the countryside to farm.

Because Li Xue arranged work for Zuo Yan Jie, Zuo Yan Jie, who said he could only write letters, still called his father that night after seeing the club and talking to Following Lou Jie.

His father didn't blame him for calling, but asked in detail about Li Xue's situation, asked about the nature of the club, and the situation of his specific work.

Which father doesn't care about his son? He was also helpless. He hadn't been in Beijing for many years, his human feelings had faded, and his wife couldn't get away, so he could only let his son allocate it himself.

Although he wasn't in Beijing, how could he not know the work allocation situation in Beijing?

There were middle school students who graduated three years ago who were still waiting for work, let alone him, who graduated this year.

Hearing that his son had found a job and stayed in Beijing, and could receive a salary every month, he was also happy in his heart.

It was just that for this job, especially the person who arranged the work for him, he still asked carefully.

After listening to his son's explanation, especially the matter a few days ago, he only told his son to work hard and work steadily, and didn't say anything else.

It was Zuo Yan Jie who asked if there were excellent construction talents, saying it was needed by Li Xue. Zuo Yan Jie's father broke the precedent and promised his son to help with this favor.

He was very principled and disciplined, otherwise he wouldn't have let his son be embarrassed to this extent, but this time he had to break the precedent.

Not only to thank Li Xue, but also to help his old comrades and old comrades-in-arms.

Having the opportunity to enter the city, who wouldn't be willing? They were all people with skills; don't say building big buildings, even building bunkers wouldn't be a problem.

So when Yu Min saw the personal profiles provided by Dou Dou Yaozu, she directly made the decision that the residential area project would only keep Dongfeng Construction as a unit.

Actually, these materials were all found by Zuo Yan Jie. The people hadn't come yet, and specific mobilization and moving, etc., were still needed.

Fortunately, Yu Min didn't think about seeing these professional personnel when they talked that day.

Today Dou Dou Yaozu came to find Li Xue, also to report this problem. The household registration placement of these dozen people needed Li Xue's help.

Although he could run it himself, with the relationship on Li Xue's side, it was just a matter of one sentence over at Jiaodaokou.

It was just that the household registration was hung at Jiaodaokou, but the accommodation of the personnel was a problem. Fortunately, these people were all from construction backgrounds, and living at the construction site was a common thing.

These problems could be arranged slowly.

Li Xue stood with his back to the window and said to Dou Dou Yaozu, "The residential area project, although I asked you to compress costs, you cannot compress quality. That's for people to live in; if something happens, no one can protect you."

"Don't worry about this."

Dou Dou Yaozu put down the teacup in his hand, sat in a posture, and reported to Li Xue, "Compressing costs is also in management, not in the use of materials."

After finishing, he explained to Li Xue, "Our construction method is safer than that set of the Russians. They are all rough styles; it's fine if it doesn't collapse."

"Our family used to work for that kind of person, most afraid of quality problems; if something happens, we really lose our heads."

Dou Dou Yaozu said with a smile, "So don't worry, as long as our factory doesn't cut corners, we will definitely have no problems. They are all technical workers managing the construction site, and many of the laborers are workers from the steel mill."

Li Xue nodded and looked at the construction site again. One of his suggestions to Yu Min was adopted, which was the placement of workers.

Because the steel mill would have large-scale construction tasks to undertake in the next few years, and lacked professional engineering worker posts, this time the "sold" quotas were mostly to fill this content.

In the future, the number of

Li Li Xuewu nodded and looked toward the construction site again. One of the suggestions he had given to Gu Gu Weijie had been adopted: the issue of worker placement.

Because the Rolling Mill would have large-scale construction tasks to undertake in the next few years and lacked professional engineering worker positions, the quota for "selling out" this time was mostly to fill this gap.

Later, as the number of voluntary labor positions gradually decreased, professional engineering worker positions would be filled.

Moreover, this kind of position filling was formed slowly; one hundred people per construction phase posed very little pressure on the Rolling Mill.

Even if the people who paid to get in were not suitable for construction worker positions, weren't there still positions in the factory that could be adjusted between each other?

Besides, these construction worker positions would gradually generate economic benefits. No longer relying on the Rolling Mill for survival, wasn't this also easing the burden on the employment issues of workers' children?

The perfect resolution of the residential area project not only allowed Dou Dou Yaozu to reap the benefits and let Gu Gu Weijie show her face, but also allowed the workers' increasingly tense emotions to be relieved and relaxed.

Although there were still workers at the joint enterprise opposing and questioning it—especially since the factory director said at the meeting last Thursday that they would study the employment issue, and there was still no result—the relevant worker representatives were already submitting questions to the factory.

But the construction at the joint enterprise site was still being carried out in full swing, as if Jing Jing Yunong was afraid of further delays and wanted to complete the construction work of the joint enterprise factory in one go.

This was a very severe and thorny problem. With such strong opposition from the workers, Jing Jing Yunong was acting arbitrarily, wanting to start construction quickly, generate benefits quickly, and increase employment positions quickly to resolve these opinions.

Li Li Xuewu knew that Jing Jing Yunong had no other choice but to take this path.

If it were in the past, when there was no wind blowing, when no one was making trouble, and when the Rolling Mill didn't have so many things and people to compare with, what she was doing would be feasible.

Because there was always a reason when the factory arranged projects, and workers ultimately considered problems from the perspective of laborers.

If you didn't listen to the factory leaders, weren't you looking for trouble?

Sigh! The problem now is that some young people want to stir up trouble even when there is nothing going on; if you have something going on, aren't you just asking for trouble?

Especially when there are people silently supporting them behind the scenes, these young people feel as if they have grass growing in their hearts.

Coupled with the comparison of this project in the early stages when Li Li Xuewu was involved versus when he wasn't, and the comparison with the fruit train incident that Li Li Xuewu brought about.

Now that there is Gu Gu Weijie from the residential area project to compare with, Jing Jing Yunong really wants to shout: Damn it, doing some work is too hard!

What makes it difficult for her is not the work, but the people. When some people make things difficult for her, this work becomes hard to handle.

Looking at the joint enterprise construction site in full swing, it is actually full of crises and hidden dangers.

How much simpler is the residential area project than the joint enterprise project?

Not necessarily. Both projects have very difficult operating environments and both pose severe tests for managers and executors.

The only difference might be that the credit and achievements of the residential area project are fixed; once built, it's over.

But the profits of the joint enterprise are long-term, and the relevant personnel and work positions are long-term, which means there is a big cake to divide.

Li Li Huai De allows Gu Gu Weijie to eat the cake from the residential area, but he will absolutely not allow Jing Jing Yunong to eat the cake from the joint enterprise.

The residential area project costs money and will not generate benefits or follow-up personnel influence, but the joint enterprise will.

Therefore, Li Li Huai De is determined to fight for the joint enterprise; even if the working group comes, it won't be of any use. Li Li Xuewu said so!

Seeing Li Li Xuewu looking at the joint enterprise construction site, Dou Dou Yaozu said softly: "They also came to us, but I was afraid of follow-up problems, so I didn't agree."

"Hehe, what are you afraid of? Could they be short of your money?"

Li Li Xuewu turned his head to look at Dou Dou Yaozu and asked with a smile.

Dou Dou Yaozu also followed with a smile and said: "I'm not afraid of money; what I'm afraid of is getting beaten. It's not worth it to get beaten for doing a little work."

"You certainly think a lot."

Li Li Xuewu smiled and turned his gaze to the auxiliary building that was being renovated.

The building being renovated here is prepared for the Party Committee organs; in the future, the Secretary and Deputy Secretary and the others will all move there to work.

This includes the subordinate organs of the Party Committee, to make room for the business units in the main office building.

This is also something that can't be helped; the several mergers of the Rolling Mill have brought in too many organ personnel.

The surplus of organ personnel is serious; saying they are idle is an exaggeration, but there is definitely no shortage of people to handle things.

Furthermore, the current business volume of the Rolling Mill does not require so many organ personnel, but this is a burden that must be carried.

Because they are all formal workers and formal cadre positions, there is no place to adjust them, so they can only be piled up here.

You can't let organ personnel in cadre positions go to the workshop to work; this is impossible, it's impossible even if you beat them to death.

Organ personnel only go to the workshop if they are punished; this is a very shameful behavior.

If the factory arranges for these people to go to the workshop, it would definitely cause a scene.

However, there will still be help; for example, the help activities recently organized by the factory office are exactly to go to the residential area construction site to work.

Because they were afraid of accidents and afraid that they wouldn't be able to help, they were assigned the job of leveling the land by the construction team personnel.

This job is simple, but tiring, so Li Li Xuewu could hear the people who returned from helping cursing on the street while standing upstairs.

Dou Dou Yaozu stood by the window with Li Li Xuewu and said helplessly: "I still don't suggest holding this kind of activity again; it's too dangerous."

"Hehe, keep dreaming."

Li Li Xuewu chuckled and said: "If we don't toss the people in the organs around, this matter won't be over."

After finishing, he turned to Dou Dou Yaozu beside him and asked: "How is the situation at the club?"

"The project progress is very stable and proceeding according to plan; you don't need to worry about this."

Dou Dou Yaozu said with a smile and added: "My second uncle is watching over there. Don't look at him being over seventy; he is very skilled in Ming and Qing architecture."

"You should take it easy; he's over seventy, don't let him climb high to do heavy work."

Li Li Xuewu glanced at Dou Dou Yaozu and reminded him with a smile: "Don't send someone away because of doing some work."

Dou Dou Yaozu, however, said carelessly: "Hey! You'll know once you see that old man; he walks like the wind, his legs and feet are flexible, and his body is tougher than mine. Even if he sends me away, I might not be able to send him away, hehehe~"

"Hehe, as long as you know what you're doing."

Li Li Xuewu saw the people who had returned from voluntary labor downstairs standing in the courtyard cleaning up, so he turned back and sat down at his desk.

"How is the progress of the Security Brigade's dormitory building?"

"It will definitely be finished in half a month."

Dou Dou Yaozu stood beside Li Li Xuewu's desk and reported: "Actually, it only took some time to change the water and electricity. The remaining windows, beds, and office furniture installation are all ready-made. Finally, painting it white and then painting the wall skirt will be no problem."

"Still the same saying."

Li Li Xuewu pointed at Dou Dou Yaozu and said: "Safety first, quality first."

"Understood!"

Dou Dou Yaozu nodded, watching Li Li Xuewu write a note.

The note Li Li Xuewu wrote was for Ji Ji Yuxiu, and also for the neighborhood office to see, to make it convenient for Dou Dou Yaozu to arrange for people to enter the household registration.

This is relatively difficult now; it's only possible for city people to go down, how could rural people go up, unless they are recruited into the city.

But the current recruitment environment is so severe, city people are all coming over, how could they use rural people.

So it still requires Li Li Xuewu's help for the procedures to be processed faster.

He has connections in the neighborhood office and the police station, which Dou Dou Yaozu knows. It's just such a small matter, and he deliberately came to Li Li Xuewu for it.

Otherwise, how would he have the time and opportunity to contact Li Li Xuewu and report on his work.

The current Dongfeng Construction Team is growing bigger and stronger, so big that he is panicked, and so strong that his brain is jumping.

He is really afraid, afraid that money will bite his hands.

So after taking the note from Li Li Xuewu's hand, he asked softly: "Director Li, the issue of the construction team's profit... what do you think..."

"It's profitable?"
