Chapter 714

"This matter is still my work error."

Feng Feng Daozong said with great regret, "The moment we received the report, we launched this operation without conducting a preliminary investigation."

"This caused work disturbances and trouble for the Security Division and the comrades of the Security Division. I will review this."

Li Li Xuewu put down the teacup in his hand and listened carefully to Feng Feng Daozong's words, as if he were willing to listen and wanted him to say more.

Feng Feng Daozong had come specifically to say this; since Li Li Xuewu was willing to listen, he had to say it.

The two of them were quite polite, with none of the tension that outsiders had speculated about.

Before getting off work, Li Li Xuewu saw Feng Feng Daozong off to the downstairs of the Security Building, and the image of the two of them shaking hands in front of the building entrance was directly imprinted in the minds of those who were watching the excitement.

An impulsive young man is not scary; a mature young man is scary, especially one who is politically mature.

Everyone standing in the office building watching this scene now had a consensus in their hearts: Li Li Xuewu's political thinking had already matured.

The storm of the working group's inspection passed very quickly, as if it had passed without anyone paying much attention, and people in the agency rarely mentioned this matter regarding the Security Division again.

Their not mentioning it did not mean that the matter had just passed; a letter of inquiry jointly signed by the Factory Party Committee and the Factory Office was sent to the working group's Feng Feng Daozong.

Feng Feng Daozong also formally received this letter of inquiry and gave his most sincere attitude as well as his most humble explanation. Although there were no words of apology in the explanation, he had already made the necessary arrangements regarding this matter.

Although there was the precedent of the Security Division, the working group's inspections of other division-level units in the Rolling Mill did not stop and were carried out very resolutely.

Compared to the time they investigated the Security Division, the working group's actions were more restrained in the following two days; they no longer launched surprise attacks, nor did they mobilize large numbers of people to conduct audits by borrowing staff.

Although Feng Feng Daozong had already communicated with Li Li Xuewu about this matter and had replied to the Rolling Mill, the storm of the matter continued.

Xue Xue Zhifu, who had not expressed his position, went directly to the higher-level Discipline Inspection leaders and severely criticized the working group's overstepping of authority.

Supervision and auditing of cadres and departments are powers exercised by the Party Committee and the Discipline Inspection Commission. The working group's current behavior was not only an interference with the overall work order of the Rolling Mill but also a destruction of discipline inspection work.

The leaders in the discipline inspection line naturally attached great importance to the opinions put forward by Xue Xue Zhifu, and after understanding the situation, they also severely criticized this behavior at the meeting.

Feng Feng Daozong also made an explanation and self-criticism to the higher authorities regarding this matter, admitting his mistakes and actively correcting them.

This was also the reason why other division-level departments in the Rolling Mill did not have auditing and separate review content when they were inspected.

It was also on this Saturday that Li Li Xuewu, after arriving at the Rolling Mill's Security Building, told Han Han Jiankun to be careful on the road.

Han Han Jiankun rarely did not immediately agree to Li Li Xuewu, which caused Sha Sha Qizhi, who got out of the car with him, to laugh and tease him.

When they came out, Li Li Xuewu introduced Han Han Jiankun to Qin Qin Jingru and also said that he would let Han Han Jiankun drive her home in a while.

Qin Qin Jingru wanted to refuse at the time, saying that it was convenient to take a bus home.

Li Li Xuewu didn't say much to her, just saying that it would be faster this way and more convenient to carry things.

Qin Qin Jingru had bought quite a few practical things for her family, such as a new comb to replace the broken one her mother had been using, floral cloth for her family, tea leaves, white sugar, brown sugar...

She had spent five of the ten yuan Li Li Xuewu gave her, and she wanted to give the rest to her mother for household expenses.

How much could five yuan buy?

At this time, if one bought only practical things, it would indeed be a big pile of items.

Seeing that Li Li Xuewu really wanted to arrange for a driver to take her, Qin Qin Jingru was also happy in her heart.

Who doesn't want to return home in glory? Who doesn't want to have a car and a driver? Being a server for a leader's family and being sent home by the leader's car is also a kind of honor.

In their village, one couldn't see a car even once a year; if she were really picked up and dropped off by a car, it would truly be giving her face.

Qin Qin Jingru didn't know how to thank Li Li Xuewu, so she could only keep thanking him, but Li Li Xuewu didn't respond to her, just urging her to relax well when she got home.

Li Li Xuewu understood the mentality of young people best; sometimes, being in the limelight is more important than anything else.

It's just face; if it could facilitate a good outcome, Li Li Xuewu felt that her hard work in taking care of his family was worth it.

After going upstairs, Li Li Xuewu urged Sha Sha Qizhi to call Han Han Yating and several other heads to his office for a small meeting to discuss the recent inspection group issues.

This inspection group was not the working group targeting various departments, but the one organized by the Factory Office targeting various workshops and grassroots units.

There were many inspection groups in the factory recently; the factory was rectifying discipline for workers and agency clerks, the working group was inspecting various departments, and later there would be an inspection of grassroots cadres in accordance with the spirit of the document issued this week.

Looking at it this way, this time it was really a cleanup and rectification for everyone up and down the Rolling Mill.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that it had a positive side, and it was also correct to say that it alleviated the contradictions between grassroots cadres and frontline personnel.

Everything has two sides and is targeted; being in the game, all one can do is face it actively.

After holding a small meeting with Han Han Yating and others and listening to how these departments were responding to and participating in the inspections, Li Li Xuewu gave instructions and arrangements.

Establish a correct attitude toward welcoming and participating in inspections, uphold correct service and work concepts, keep work responsibilities and missions in mind, and persist in dedication and discipline execution.

A new era must have a new situation, a new mission, and new requirements.

Li Li Xuewu was not shouting slogans, nor was he singing high-sounding tunes; those who could understand the meaning of his words could naturally understand his caution and focus.

The Security Division was of one mind, fully facing the inspection activities during this period, and also fully facing the hidden arrows shot over from time to time.

After the meeting ended, Sha Sha Qizhi sent off the heads of various departments, turned back into the office, and reported to Li Li Xuewu: "When you were in the meeting, the Factory Party Committee and the Factory Office, under the suggestion of the working group, dismissed more than a dozen division-level and section-level comrades, including the Director of the Logistics Management Division."

"This is the notice that was just sent over."

As Sha Sha Qizhi spoke, he opened the folder in his hand and handed a notice document to Li Li Xuewu.

Li Li Xuewu glanced at Sha Sha Qizhi and asked, "Was it the Party Committee meeting held this morning?"

"It was the Secretary's Office meeting."

Sha Sha Qizhi answered Li Li Xuewu's question seriously, stood on the side of the desk, and continued to report: "Deputy Director Feng attended the meeting as a representative of the working group, and Division Chief Peng Peng Yonghong attended the meeting as a non-voting delegate."

Li Li Xuewu nodded and took the document to read it carefully.

This time, quite a few people were handled, and the highest-ranking one was Zhang Zhang Guoqi, the Director of the Logistics Management Division, who had been handled once before and was now directly dismissed.

Of course, dismissal and removal from office are different; Li Li Xuewu could see the caution and urgency of the working group from this notice, which clearly carried an urgent nature.

One full division-level, two deputy division-level, five full section-level, and eight deputy section-level—good heavens, this was really because the mid-year meeting was coming up, so they started clearing positions.

Dismissal sounds very serious, but in fact, it is just a kind of administrative punishment. Their own ranks and the individuals themselves were not subjected to disciplinary action, and they could still hold relevant leadership positions in the future.

So one must look carefully at those notices from later generations; not all handling is very serious, and there is also some shadowboxing.

This time, so many people were handled; to say that there was no support from the Factory Party Committee and the Factory Office would be completely impossible.

And this list looks like a large number of people; perhaps not all of them had problems found by the working group, but some might have been found by the Rolling Mill itself recently, or were situations where the supervising leader suggested adjustments.

It's just that now that the working group is stirring up trouble, the Factory Party Committee and the Factory Office are also hitching a ride and hanging all the problems under the working group.

Judging from the current dismissal notice, it is definitely not the last one; before the mid-year meeting is held, there will definitely be relevant notices issued.

This is also the reason why Li Li Xuewu had long ago insight into the purpose of these people arranging so many inspection groups, and warned the Security Division to take it seriously.

Who to adjust, who to move—Li Li Xuewu had plans for all of them. If someone was adjusted because of certain things, it meant he didn't have sufficient preparation to arrange for someone to take the position, which would mean the loss of a position.

What it means for a nail to be inserted into a department is self-evident.

The Security Division is the most united team in the Rolling Mill and the team with the most discipline. In the face of iron-like will, all tests are paper tigers.

However, compared to the Security Division's smooth landing, the loss of the Logistics Management Division cannot be considered anything but a huge blow to Li Huai.

From now until the mid-year meeting is held, the position of the Logistics Management Division will definitely be a fierce contest.

Li Huai will not allow the largest department in his hands to lose control, and Yang Yang Fengshan will not allow Li Huai to continue to grow, so they will inevitably have to do something in this adjustment.

Every mid-year meeting and year-end meeting is a test for cadres of various departments and also a test for supervising leaders.

This kind of test is not all the negative side of fighting; on the contrary, it proves the advanced nature of the organization.

If you want to progress, you have to make achievements before the relevant meetings; it's like sailing against the current—if you don't advance, you retreat.

As long as the integrity and execution of this system are guaranteed, the cadres within the organization will form a competitive state, and the political ecology will also show a positive side.

However, for those in the game, the pressure of this kind of test is still very great. The Security Division doesn't worry about any mistakes in this mid-year meeting, but it can't have problems before the meeting, letting others get a handle on them.

This kind of time is a bit like the game of musical chairs; before the whistle blows, one must protect the balloon behind one's back, and after the whistle blows, one must have a seat while protecting the balloon.

In addition to sending this cadre handling document to Li Li Xuewu, Sha Sha Qizhi also brought a piece of news.

"I heard that Division Chief Wang of the Service Division was interviewed by Factory Director Yang and Secretary Yang. Some people guess it should be about his recent performance and related to the mid-year meeting."

"Hmm."

Li Li Xuewu nodded with some understanding, looked out the window, and asked, "Is there any news from the Party Committee Building? When are they moving?"

"It should be soon."

Sha Sha Qizhi replied: "I saw people from the Service Division cleaning up when I passed by there today. They said the smell of paint was a bit strong and it needed to be aired for a few days, but the furniture and such are already being moved, and the main office building is also undergoing office adjustments."

Li Li Xuewu nodded without speaking, his gaze looking out the window.

Since last year, the Rolling Mill has built two office buildings in total, one is the office building currently used by the Security Division, and the other is the Party Committee Building diagonally opposite.

Because there are not many organizational departments in the Party Committee, the office building is not as large as the main office building.

In the future, the units headed by Secretary Yang Yang Yuansong, Executive Deputy Secretary Gu Gu Weijie, and Discipline Inspection Secretary Xue Xue Zhifu will all move to the Party Committee Building.

And some offices of the Factory Trade Union will also move there, but they won't take up much space, as their main activity venues are in the club, the auditorium, and other locations.

If it is really as Sha Sha Qizhi said, then the Party Committee and the Factory Office will be separated before the mid-year meeting.

The Factory Office, which has always been taking care of the Party Committee Office's responsibilities, will also be separated, which will produce a new Office Director.

Agency work is like this; a slight change in the overall situation means earth-shaking changes for those below.

Li Li Xuewu was not surprised that the Factory Director and the Secretary interviewed Wang Wang Jingzhang separately, as Sha Sha Qizhi just said.

Because in the past few days, the working group has been smooth sailing in investigating so many units and individuals, which cannot be separated from Wang Wang Jingzhang's cooperation.

Li Li Xuewu even suspected that the inspection of the Security Division was caused by him; perhaps there is no need to suspect, it just was.

Regardless of whether it was or not, Li Li Xuewu remembered this "favor" of Wang Wang Jingzhang, but he didn't want to take action against him, lest he interfere with someone else's ongoing actions and disrupt the rhythm of the layout, which is a very annoying behavior.

Faced with such a tense situation, after this dismissal notice, the factory leaders must have felt annoyed by Wang Wang Jingzhang's "obsession."

Being interviewed by the two top leaders already indicated that he would be the object of adjustment in the upcoming mid-year meeting.

What he should do now is to turn back to the shore, try to eliminate the current influence, not do things that damage the overall order of the Rolling Mill, and also warn him to restrain himself in the next few days.

Will Wang Wang Jingzhang listen?

This is unknown, but whether it is the working group or the factory leaders, they actually didn't take him seriously at all, just watching him like a clown.

It would be fine if he had something in his hands; he could still stand firm in the upcoming adjustments.

If not, then wait to be cleared out; those who don't follow the rules of the game are not welcome.

When eating at noon, Li Li Xuewu met Wang Wang Jingzhang. Judging by the look of it, the conversation with the two leaders was not very relaxed, and his complexion was very bad.

Li Li Xuewu was not concerned about him, but about Zhang Zhang Guoqi; this brother did not appear in the cafeteria.

He was only dismissed, not given a long vacation. He still has to go to work, but Li Li Xuewu didn't hear what position he was assigned to; he should still be in the Logistics Division for the time being.

Of course, he is a full division-level cadre after all; now no one will step on him. The matter of rising from the ashes has appeared countless times in history, and it will appear again this time.

Because Li Huai hasn't fallen, Zhang Zhang Guoqi will definitely be reused.

Especially since his personal ability is not weak; he walked to this step today entirely because he was a scapegoat for Li Huai.

Li Huai naturally cannot let him be a scapegoat in vain. This adjustment is necessary; anyone knows that he won't sit in the Logistics Division for long, but no one expected that such a thing would happen before the mid-year meeting, and Zhang Zhang Guoqi would be pulled off his horse.

He didn't wait for Zhang Zhang Guoqi, but waited for Xu Sinian and Kuang Kuang Yusheng and others, who invited Li Li Xuewu to sit in the tea hall at noon.

Li Li Xuewu knew that these guys had no good intentions. After sitting down, he heard Xu Sinian open his mouth and say: "We made an appointment with Old Zhang tonight, planning to give him a farewell banquet. Are you coming?"

"What the hell?"

Li Li Xuewu looked at Xu Sinian amusedly, then looked at Xia Xia Zhongquan and the others, and said: "You guys are really good comrades, old comrades-in-arms. The action of sprinkling salt on the wound is really practiced to perfection."

"Hey~~~ How can you say that?"

Wei Zai explained with a smile: "Our main purpose is to care about our comrades, encourage him not to give up on himself, to be strong, and to pick up his fighting spirit again to continue learning and working hard."

"Heh~ You really are the material for the Party Group."

Li Li Xuewu chuckled, pointed at Wei Zai, looked at Xu Sinian, and asked: "With this bad idea of you guys, will Old Zhang come?"

"Why wouldn't he?"

Propaganda Division's Bu Bu Fangqing smiled and said: "This is called breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly, nirvana and rebirth. Leaving the Logistics Division, he can be considered to have jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements, starting a new life. Why can't we celebrate?"

"Good!"

Li Li Xuewu looked at these old guys who didn't think it was a big deal, nodded, and asked: "Then who is hosting this banquet tonight?"

"Of course it's Old Zhang!"

Xu Sinian said as a matter of course: "He is the protagonist today. If he doesn't host, who will? He will have to host again when the appointment notice comes down, celebrating his return to his post."

"Oh ho~"

Li Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and said: "Then this dish of 'Old Zhang Two-Way Eat' has really been figured out by you guys. Eat once when he goes down, and eat once when he comes up."

After speaking, he glanced at Wei Zai and said: "If Division Chief Wei works hard for more than a year, wouldn't we have gatherings every month?"

"Hahahaha~"

Seeing Li Li Xuewu teasing Wei Zai, everyone laughed, as if they were happy and celebrating Zhang Zhang Guoqi's dismissal.

Those who didn't know would think that Zhang Zhang Guoqi had how much hatred for these people.

Xiao Jin sent tea and water over here, and hearing the laughter of these department heads, she really couldn't tell that the leaders' jokes were also just so-so~

Li Li Xuewu waved to Xiao Jin and asked with a smile: "Who is on duty today?"

"It's Division Chief Fu."

Xiao Jin replied with a smile and explained: "Because Division Chief Fu's surname is Fu, we discussed it, and we will call her that from now on."

"Then you guys have to watch out for the day Fu Linfang becomes the full Division Chief!"

Li Li Xuewu made a joke with her, then signaled her to call Fu Linfang over.

After they talked for a while, Fu Linfang ran over and said: "Sorry, leader, I was in the warehouse just now."

"It's okay."

Li Li Xuewu smiled and waved his hand, signaled to the guest house restaurant, and asked: "Is the private room booked tonight?"

"Not yet."

Fu Linfang was the Division Chief on duty today and was naturally familiar with the overall business. Li Li Xuewu asked, and she answered.

"Then help us book it, for ten people. Tell Chef Master Qian, just say I'm hosting comrades from our factory."

Li Li Xuewu said, and added: "Help me prepare good wine, just use the ones I have stored here."

"Okay."

Fu Linfang agreed with a smile, and seeing that Li Li Xuewu had no more instructions, she nodded and went out.

Although Li Li Xuewu hadn't hosted guests here since she worked here, Qin Qin Huairu had done the handover. These two, Deputy Factory Director Li and Deputy Division Chief Li, only needed to tell Chef Master Qian in the cafeteria when booking a table here; there was no need to ask what dishes to order.

And there was the issue of wine and drinks; no need to ask, prepare two types for Deputy Factory Director Li's banquet, both red and white, while only white is needed for Deputy Division Chief Li's banquet.

This Chef Master Qian in the cafeteria is a master chef. His cooking of cafeteria meals is very exquisite, but she had heard that this old master's cooking of banquet dishes is a unique skill.

On weekdays, the work in the kitchen is done by his two apprentices, and he rarely does it himself.

It is only when Deputy Factory Director Li is hosting guests here that the old master will reach out, and the dishes he makes are also unique in color, fragrance, and taste.

The topics discussed by Li Li Xuewu and these division chiefs just now, she only heard a little bit, but she suspected she had heard wrong.

She seemed to have heard that tonight's banquet was to celebrate Division Chief Zhang...?

Wasn't Division Chief Zhang dismissed? Why celebrate?

This is as surprising as hearing about a banquet for a divorce in later generations.

Then is this dismissal or promotion!

She naturally didn't understand the thoughts and minds of Li Li Xuewu and these people. Holding a banquet for Zhang Zhang Guoqi was mainly to alleviate Zhang Zhang Guoqi's disappointment.

Old Zhang, this person, might have been a bit ruthless and arrogant, but he was still very open-minded.

He could let go when playing with everyone, and he was also a fierce general in the wine field.

It's not that Li Li Xuewu and Xu Sinian and others have deep feelings for Zhang Zhang Guoqi, but they are all comrades. In the agency, one can not praise others, but one must never step on them.

Everyone has times of disappointment, and everyone has times when they face life adjustments. At this time, using a banquet to liven things up shows that everyone hasn't forgotten him and hasn't looked down on him, so it will be easy to meet again when he rises again.

How much is a banquet worth? Li Li Xuewu asked just now who was hosting.

Xu Sinian joked that Zhang Zhang Guoqi was hosting, but that was just a joke; in the end, it had to be paid for by the people among them.

Since they decided to eat at the guest house, it must be Li Li Xuewu hosting; this is fulfilling the friendship of the host.

To have this face, one must support this substance.

To let others respect your rights to the guest house, you must pay the corresponding obligations and show the proper demeanor.

Working in an agency, maintaining good relationships, and opening up the path to progress is definitely a money-burning behavior.

Unless you are waiting to die below, don't think about taking your salary home.

The unit earns money, the unit spends it; don't think about taking a penny home.

Of course, these are standards from later generations; it doesn't need that much now.

After all, it's at the guest house. Some people dared to use the unit's budget to hang accounts. Many were found out this time, and the recovery was very strict.

At this time, the control over such matters was still very strict, unless it reached Li Huai's level, and the guests were other factory leaders or related important guests, then it could be charged to the public account.

But within the factory, everyone is a comrade, and Li Li Xuewu didn't dare to hang accounts like that.

Inviting guests to dinner is a normal social interaction, but today's time was not a coincidence; it happened to be Saturday.

Li Li Xuewu also called Gu Ning after returning from the guest house, saying that there was a social engagement tonight, and asked her to drive the old lady and Li Shu to the Sihe Academy herself, and he would go back later.

After talking to Gu Ning, Li Li Xuewu thought of Old Lao Biaozi, so he had to call Red Star Village again, asking someone to pass a message, telling Old Lao Biaozi to drive the car home directly tonight.

Zhang Zhang Guoqi was notified by Xu Sinian that there was a banquet tonight. The secretary reported back that Division Chief Zhang was with Deputy Factory Director Li, and he was also amused when he heard the news, but there were more smiles.

And since Zhang Zhang Guoqi was invited, Li Huai must be invited. It was Li Li Xuewu who called the Deputy Factory Director.

It should be that after the secretary went to find Zhang Zhang Guoqi, Li Huai had already received the news.

Li Huai had an expression of laughing to death when he heard the news, and after receiving Li Li Xuewu's call, he scolded Li Li Xuewu for not being a human son.

But he gladly accepted the invitation to the "Celebration Banquet for Division Chief Zhang's Dismissal" tonight and indicated that he would definitely give a speech at the banquet.

Counting Li Huai and Zhang Zhang Guoqi, there were ten people. These ten people were at least Deputy Division Chiefs like Li Li Xuewu. What did this represent?

Li Huai could not ignore this force gathered around Li Li Xuewu, and even more could not ignore the support and encouragement for Zhang Zhang Guoqi this time, mainly led by Li Li Xuewu and Xu Sinian.

Even if this force was very loose and had no cohesion or organization.

But it was precisely because these people gathered together without cohesion that he trusted Li Li Xuewu and trusted Li Li Xuewu.

Even if it were him, how many supporters could he have in the Rolling Mill? If Li Li Xuewu really had seven or eight full or deputy division-level cadre supporters, he would soon be replaced.

And when Li Huai came to the guest house at night, from the glance after entering the door, he could discover the state of these people.

Rather than saying they came to attend Zhang Zhang Guoqi's dismissal banquet, it was better to say they came to invest.

Who said green stocks aren't suitable for investment?

What if it rebounds from the bottom!

What's more, behind this green stock stood a strong concept stock.

"I said you guys are really good at sarcasm, holding some dismissal banquet~"

Li Huai stood at the door, smiled, pointed at several people, and said: "You guys must not show mercy when Zhang Guoqi comes later!"

"Hahahaha! ~"

Everyone stood up to welcome Li Huai and was also amused by Li Huai's joke.

Li Huai was invited by Xu Sinian to sit in the main seat. He had just sat down when Zhang Zhang Guoqi's voice came from the door.

"Who is inside?! I want to see who are the ones who are not acting like humans and are making fun of me, Old Zhang!"

"Hahahaha~"

He joked with the waiter at the door, and was also joking with the people in the room.

Pushing open the door and seeing Li Huai sitting in the room, he first nodded with a smile, then went straight to Li Li Xuewu and Xu Sinian.

"It must be you two!"

"Come, come out and fight one-on-one!"

"If I don't cause you intentional injury today, I've lived forty years in vain!"

"Hahaha!"

Li Li Xuewu saw Zhang Zhang Guoqi acting shamelessly, so he quickly clasped his fists and admitted defeat, after all, intentional injury means going to jail, and he didn't dare to play with Zhang Zhang Guoqi's old arms and legs!

Xu Sinian was good at diverting trouble. Seeing Zhang Zhang Guoqi pulling him, he pointed his hand at Wei Zai and said: "Division Chief Wei proposed it, we just seconded it, he is the mastermind."

"You all deserve a beating!"

Zhang Zhang Guoqi was also just pretending to be angry. He was persuaded by Xu Sinian and others to sit next to Li Huai, which was considered the protagonist today.

It's just that this protagonist was a bit sad and a bit amused.

"Today, we gathered together not for anything else, mainly to celebrate Comrade Zhang Guoqi's dismissal. Come, let's touch one~"

"Hahaha, touch one!"

With Li Huai taking the lead, everyone at the table laughed and touched their glasses together.

Zhang Zhang Guoqi had long thought that today would come. He was investigated together with Li Huai, and although they came out later, there would eventually be a result.

Li Huai went to surrender, so he couldn't have no responsibility at all. Now Li Huai didn't want to bear the responsibility, so if it wasn't him bearing it, who else could it be?

Carrying such a big punishment for the first time, staying in the Logistics Management Division was meaningless.

Without achievements, he would never be promoted, and that punishment would always follow him.

So instead of struggling, it's better to put down the burden and start over.

He knew about the dismissal content after receiving the dismissal notice today, so he wasn't surprised.

But he was still a bit sad; after all, he had worked in the Logistics Division for nearly ten years, and ending in this posture was really not decent.

Just when he was sad, just when he was talking to Li Huai, he suddenly received an invitation to this banquet held specifically for him, which really made his mood mixed.

Geese leave a sound, people leave a name. Regardless of what conclusion the working group and the Rolling Mill made for his Logistics Management Division career, being missed by so many people today made his heart warm.

Although he knew this was the workplace, a kind of social engagement in the agency, maybe everyone knew he would rise again, so so many people came.

But having such a group of people accompany him in laughter and cursing, in sound and color, during this low point in life, using another form of comfort to encourage him and support him.

Must say, Old Zhang was moved.

One could tell from the fact that his hand holding the wine glass never let go that he was really sad today, and the wine passed through his sorrowful intestines, making him even more sorrowful.

But he was also really happy today. Who said there are no bosom friends on the road ahead? Who in the world doesn't know you?

In an agency unit, one must be prepared to be a dragon in shallow water, and also have the determination to rise again. Whose life is smooth sailing?

"Come, Li Xuewu, let's go one, I've remembered your favor, old brother!"

Zhang Zhang Guoqi took the initiative to touch a glass of wine with Li Li Xuewu. He had asked the waiter at the door just now and knew that Li Li Xuewu was hosting the banquet to support his scene, so he was naturally grateful to Li Li Xuewu in his heart.

And Li Li Xuewu held his wine glass and joked: "I don't think there's any need for this 'favor'~"

"Hahahaha!"

"No!"

Zhang Zhang Guoqi held his wine glass and joked: "Gold is easy to get, but a bosom friend is hard to find. This... ah!"

As he spoke, he gestured with his right hand at the scene in the room, and continued: "Such a big favor, I will definitely retaliate against you in the future!"

"Hahaha~"

Everyone saw Zhang Zhang Guoqi deliberately being funny and laughed along.

And Zhang Zhang Guoqi looked at Li Li Xuewu and laughed, then corrected: "Retaliate... revenge... report... beat you up... repay you!"

"I meant repay you!"

Zhang Zhang Guoqi held his wine glass and joked: "I will never forget today, I'll remember you for eight generations!"

"Hahaha~"

Li Li Xuewu touched his wine glass with Zhang Zhang Guoqi again, and said amidst everyone's laughter: "Then I wish that I can drink your dismissal celebration wine for generations to come!"

"Go to hell~ Hahaha!"

Zhang Zhang Guoqi laughed and drank the wine in his glass, exceptionally heroic.

Li Li Xuewu also smiled and drank this cup for Li Huai.

Not to mention, the wine Li Huai drank today wasn't his "good wine." "Good wine" is generally used for hosting outside guests alone. Li Li Xuewu told him that the wine was better, after all, things were added to it.

Li Huai was also happy watching Li Li Xuewu and the two of them joking. Today, the wine was in full swing, and he chatted happily with several other people at the table, so he drank every cup.

Today, Chef Master Qian put in effort. The ten-person banquet had eight dishes, stir-fried, deep-fried, and braised, which was considered bringing out the housekeeping skills of a mansion chef.

It was also a good season now, with all kinds of materials, so it was convenient for him to put together a banquet.

Fu Linfang and Liu Lan arranged for waiters to serve dishes into the room, and also had to take care of the late-night snack stall outside the door.

At this time, guests who deliberately waited for grilled fish or other wine dishes were seated, and the waiters had to be busy, and also had to pay attention to service attitude.

"What's the situation today?"

Liu Lan took advantage of the waiter serving dishes to glance into the room and asked Fu Linfang: "Looking at it, they are all leaders from our factory."

Fu Linfang pursed her lips and said softly: "They are just leaders from our factory."

After speaking, she signaled the waiter to pay attention to the tray in their hands, walk steadily, and don't be in a hurry.

Liu Lan looked back, then turned around and said to Fu Linfang: "Why is Zhang Zhang Guoqi there too? Is he drunk?"

She saw Li Huai, walked over to take a look, and didn't expect to see Zhang Zhang Guoqi holding a wine glass and shouting there.

Fu Linfang wouldn't tell Liu Lan about this, shook her head slightly and said: "I don't know, the leader arranged it, so we just do it."

After speaking, she was about to go outside. Liu Lan was here, so she wasn't afraid of the private room suddenly calling.

Liu Lan asked another question when Fu Linfang was about to leave: "Who organized the gathering?"

Fu Linfang could still answer this. Even if she didn't answer, Liu Lan would know in a while.

"It was Deputy Division Chief Li, booked this afternoon."

After saying just that, Fu Linfang went outside, where someone was waving to order food.

Liu Lan curled her lips and glanced into the private room again, then returned to the kitchen.

She wanted to talk to Fu Linfang for a while longer, but this new Deputy Division Chief was a university student, and she herself had some arrogance, and there was a generation gap between them.

Speaking of this Deputy Division Chief, Liu Lan was also clear in her heart. Don't look down on anyone, and don't make things difficult for anyone.

There are no secrets in this Rolling Mill. Even the smallest thing can spread.

The things about Fu Linfang when she was an intern at the Service Division spread because of her position as Deputy Division Chief.

It is said that she is a university student, and no one is jealous of her being a Deputy Division Chief, but in fact, people who don't know their own strength always exist.

Liu Lan followed Li Huai to survive, and Fu Linfang relied on Wang Wang Jingzhang to progress; it's all the same.

And looking at it now, she, Liu Lan, relied on someone more reliable and capable.

The person Fu Linfang relied on was not only unreliable but also about to fall. Wasn't her being assigned to the guest house a joke?

It's just Li Li Xuewu, who is too kind, and was able to extend a helping hand after being treated like that by Fu Linfang, which shows that Deputy Division Chief Li is not as ruthless as the rumors say.

Anyway, Liu Lan had never seen Deputy Division Chief Li's bad side. Her coming to the guest house to be a section chief was because Deputy Division Chief Li opened his mouth.

If it were Li Huai, she would be more suitable in the cafeteria, after all, it's not showing off, which is more convenient.

Li Huai wouldn't consider her personal development. The worse she lived, the closer she relied on him. These people are not fools.

Managing the cafeteria here, not to mention anything else, at least she didn't have to share those leftovers with people in the cafeteria like before.

Thinking of her past life, she had to remember Li Li Xuewu's kindness.

It was Fu Linfang, and some people said she might have hooked up with Deputy Division Chief Li again, but most didn't believe it.

The reason why it was said that Fu Linfang hooked up with Deputy Division Chief Li had some basis. After all, the guest house is Li Li Xuewu's territory. Making a living here, one can't bypass Li Li Xuewu.

Now Li Li Xuewu helped her arrange the position of Deputy Division Chief again; it's impossible for there to be no relationship.

And there was someone who saw Fu Linfang having dealings with the female university student from the Security Division; there might be other things here.

But those who didn't believe it also said, Deputy Division Chief Li is such an upright person, even paying for fruit and tea here, would he need to arrange for his own people to engage in those little tricks?

Furthermore, Deputy Division Chief Li arranged for Fu Linfang in front of everyone, not behind the scenes, which is much stronger than some people.

This "some people" represents quite a few people, and might also represent a certain person.

The words on the surface are pleasant, but the words behind the back are uncertain.

The gathering at night broke up quite late, and Li Huai pulled a few people to play mahjong again.

There were those playing, those watching the excitement, and those sitting on the sofa chatting.

Those playing mahjong were chatting, and those watching the excitement were also chatting, and those chatting were all speaking with hidden meanings.

At this point, they were all exchanging their own thoughts with the help of the wine.

Li Li Xuewu played a few rounds, and took the opportunity of going to the bathroom to give his seat to Zhang Zhang Guoqi, who had just returned from the bathroom.

By the time he came back, Zhang Zhang Guoqi had already started winning money.

It is said that one is frustrated in the workplace but successful in the card game; Xu Sinian even suspected that he had really gone to dig a grave.

Li Li Xuewu sat next to Bi Bi Yuding and handed him a cigarette.

Bi Bi Yuding took the initiative to light Li Li Xuewu's cigarette with a match, and this mutual respect between the two had a sense of a gentleman's friendship being as light as water.

"Was the trip to the frontier smooth last time?"

"Trade matters?"

Bi Bi Yuding raised his eyebrows, took a puff of his cigarette, and said: "The road is open, but the indicators are not easy to arrange."
