Chapter 252 The New Steward
Xu Damao knew that Director Wang wanted to promote him to be the manager, but it was not clear whether he would be the third uncle or the first uncle.
Yi Zhonghai felt that Director Wang must be trying to restore his position as the boss. Even though Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were having a great time, one of them was bound to be in trouble today.
The two seemed to have telepathic connection and looked at each other inexplicably.
Xu Damao's eyes were meaningful, and Yi Zhonghai's eyes were complacent.
The residents gathered quickly, and within a few minutes, even the deaf old lady was helped out and sat in the corner.
Familiar scene, familiar round table.
Director Wang cleared his throat, asked everyone to be quiet, and then bowed to everyone.
"First of all, on behalf of the subdistrict office, I would like to wish you all a happy new year. I wish you all a harmonious and happy family, a prosperous career, and good health and longevity."
There was a warm applause at the scene.
"We also wish Director Wang a happy new year."
"Yes, yes. I wish Director Wang continued success."
Director Wang smiled and waved his hand, interrupting everyone's New Year greetings.
"It's the same old problem. During the Chinese New Year, we can't avoid making fires to cook, setting off firecrackers, and especially going to the market to buy New Year's goods, etc., so everyone must be vigilant and raise their safety awareness.
Arrange the firewood and briquettes well, keep a close eye on your children and don't let them set off firecrackers on the firewood pile. Also, when you go out, cover your pockets and keep an eye on your children.
You want to celebrate the New Year, and so do thieves and pickpockets. So everyone must be on guard against fire and theft. Don't let bad luck happen to you during the New Year, and let your family and your yard have a safe New Year."
Hearing this, the residents nodded to each other. Director Wang was right. There had indeed been a lot of pickpockets stealing money recently.
But Yi Zhonghai heard something different in the words.
In the past, we would first appoint the uncles in charge and let the three of them lead everyone in preparing for the New Year, and they would announce the specific matters at the meeting.
This year it was implemented directly and the style was changed.
Suddenly, a feeling of uneasiness came over me.
Then, Director Wang’s next words made him feel the crisis was even worse.
"This courtyard has performed very poorly this year, especially in the past six months. Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu, Bang Geng, He Yuzhu, and Yi Zhonghai have committed crimes one after another, and there is also..."
At this point, Director Wang glanced at the deaf old lady and didn't dare to mention it, so as to save her face.
"They beat people, hit children, stole things, and covered things up. It can be said that the three uncles in charge bear a great responsibility for all the problems in the courtyard! And they never change despite repeated warnings."
Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and Yi Zhonghai all lowered their heads, feeling very panicked.
Listening to this, something seems to be wrong.
Sure enough, Director Wang took a look around, took an appointment document from the clerk, and read: "According to the decision of the Party Committee of the Subdistrict Office, Courtyard 95 will adopt a management method that combines the old, middle-aged and young generations. The positions of Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui as managers are now revoked, and Wang Erni, Lin Haichang and Xu Damao are appointed as the new managers of the front, middle and back courtyards, effective immediately.
I am here, hoping that the new manager can lead Courtyard No. 95 to become an excellent courtyard again."
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Xu Damao was the first to raise his hand, with pride written all over his face.
Aunt Ma touched her husband Lin Haichang who was still in a daze, and the latter reacted at that time.
"Thank you Director Wang and the leaders of the subdistrict office for promoting me. I will definitely work hard to serve the residents in the courtyard well."
Director Wang nodded and looked at Yan Bugui, who had tears in his eyes.
"Yan Bugui, since Mr. Wang Erni is not here, I now appoint you as the temporary steward. I hope you can help Lin Haichang and Xu Damao to do a good job in the hospital."
Yan Bugui dared not refuse and nodded quickly.
"Yes, Director Wang, rest assured, I will definitely cooperate with them."
"Well, very good, then you guys go ahead and get busy, I still have to go to other departments for meetings."
After Director Wang finished speaking, he stood up and left, completely ignoring the pleading looks from the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai.
Lin Haichang and Xu Damao took a few quick steps and walked him to the gate of the courtyard.
Everyone watched Director Wang and the new manager leave the Intermediate Court, and immediately began to discuss the matter impatiently.
"I didn't expect that Lao Lin could be the manager."
"Yeah, yeah, Xu Damao was also lucky. Tell me, why did it become his turn?"
"Have you forgotten the last time Director Wang came to see Xu Damao?"
"Yes, didn't Director Wang say that we should adopt a management method that combines the old, middle-aged and young generations? There are only a few young people in our hospital, and after counting them, it can only be Xu Damao."
"That's right, unless Liu Guangqi comes back."
"It's true."
Liu Haizhong became even more dejected as he listened to everyone's discussions. He was confused as to why he lost his position as manager just like that.
This will not allow you to have a good new year.
Xu Damao became the manager of the backyard. He was so old but was managed by a young man. Where would his face be? How could he show off his power in the future? How could he face the residents who had been taught a lesson by him?
The more Liu Haizhong thought about it, the more heartbroken he felt, and the more he wanted to find someone to vent his anger to.
But when he thought about the two bad boys Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu who hadn't been home for two days, he got even more angry.
On the other side, Yan Bugui also stood there in a daze, his face hot and his eyes unfocused.
Losing his position as manager was a big blow to him.
Being a role model for others and having the character of a scholar are all acquired through the position of a manager. It doesn't matter if you lose the position, but where can you put the shame of being dismissed?
How will he be able to stand at the door and take advantage of others in the future, and how will he be able to preach to the residents and younger generations in the courtyard in the future?
Yan Bugui had always felt that Ni Ye would seize the position of the manager. For a while, he even thought about abdicating and making way for someone more virtuous to take over, thus creating a good story. However, he did not expect that things would happen so unexpectedly.
In a word, two words: shameful!
Of course, the most panicked person was Yi Zhonghai. The agreed thing was changed, and the favor of the deaf old lady was wasted.
He wanted to find the deaf old lady and ask her again, but she shook her head helplessly.
The subdistrict office has already issued the document. Do you think you can change it just by saying so?
The deaf old lady immediately understood the reason. It must be that Yi Zhonghai's hooliganism was reported to the street office.
Although the matter was suppressed, the fact exists.
No matter how bold the subdistrict office is, it will not allow a hooligan to be the person in charge.
If people find out, they will be laughed at by their peers.
"Sufen, I'm tired, help me go back."
The deaf old lady stood up and walked slowly to the backyard with the help of an old lady.
She could be heard mumbling to herself in the corridor.
"Oh, things are changing. They are really going to change."
Yi Zhonghai was not stupid and quickly figured out the reason. Fortunately, he had been dismissed from his position before, so he was not as hard hit as Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, although he still felt a little disappointed.
He thought clearly that Director Wang must be under pressure, otherwise he would not have ignored the favor of the deaf old lady.
As for what to do, it’s very simple. As long as someone fails to be a good manager, he will naturally have a chance.
Just as he was thinking about it, the new manager Lin Haichang and Xu Damao walked in chatting and laughing.
