Chapter 474: Strike first to avoid further punches!

Chapter 474: One punch is enough to prevent a hundred punches from coming!
Around five o'clock in the evening, Jia Dongming and Lin Yuemei rode their bicycles to the Sijiucheng Industrial Bureau.

Lin Jianjun, who had been waiting in the company compound, immediately came forward to greet Jia Dongming and Lin Yuemei when he saw them. He smiled and said, "Director Jia! Welcome to our Industrial Bureau."

When Jia Dongming heard Lin Jianjun's welcome, he quickly reached out his hand to shake Lin Jianjun's hand, and said to Lin Jianjun with a smile: "Director Lin! Please don't say that. This time I am lucky enough to have the chance to taste the cooking skills of the chef in your Industry Bureau cafeteria."

When Lin Jianjun heard Jia Dongming's polite words, he quickly introduced him to Jia Dongming: "Director Jia! Let me introduce you. This is Wei Chaoyang, the office director of our bureau, this is Zhang Shurui, the chief of the logistics department, and this is Zhong Peng, the deputy chief of the personnel department."

"Comrades, this is the security chief of the steel mill, Director Jia Dongming. We were able to purchase so much pork this time thanks to Director Jia's help. So tonight, on behalf of our bureau, you must thank Director Jia and toast him a few more glasses of wine."

After hearing what Lin Jianjun had said, Wei Chaoyang immediately reached out his hands and shook Jia Dongming's hands. He greeted Jia Dongming warmly, "Director Jia! Hello, I'm glad to meet you. Thanks to your help, we can finally have a good New Year."

When Jia Dongming heard Wei Chaoyang's thanks, he shook hands with Wei Chaoyang and replied modestly, "Director Wei! Look at what you said. I just happened to know a few friends, so I helped out a little bit."

"Director Jia! Maybe this matter is a trivial matter to you, but it is a huge matter for our logistics department. If it weren't for your help, I, the head of the logistics department, might not be able to celebrate this New Year." After Jia Dongming greeted Wei Chaoyang, Zhang Shurui quickly reached out and shook Jia Dongming's hand, and said to Jia Dongming with gratitude on his face.

When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Shurui's thanks, he first shook hands with him politely, and then replied modestly: "Chief Zhang! The person you should thank is not me, but your Director Lin."

After Jia Dongming had greeted several of his subordinates, Lin Jianjun smiled and said to Jia Dongming, "Director Jia! I have already arranged everything for the canteen. Let's go to the canteen together and taste the cooking skills of our canteen chef."

Led by Lin Jianjun, everyone quickly came to the small private room in the cafeteria. After Lin Jianjun and the kitchen helpers brought the dishes into the private room, he raised the wine glass in front of him and said enthusiastically: "Comrades, this first glass of wine is to toast Director Jia. Thank you for the help you provided us this time, so that all our comrades in the whole department can have a happy new year."

When everyone heard Lin Jianjun's words, they raised their glasses and toasted Jia Dongming.

Because Lin Jianjun was particularly good at creating an atmosphere, the small private room was filled with cheerful laughter, and Jia Dongming became the object of everyone's toasts. Fortunately, Jia Dongming was smart and he accepted all the enthusiasm from these people. In the end, the only people who could sit upright in the box were Jia Dongming and Lin Jianjun, brother and sister.

Seeing several of his subordinates lying drunk on the table, Lin Jianjun couldn't help but show admiration in his eyes when he looked at Jia Dongming. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said to Jia Dongming with emotion: "Director Jia! Zhang Shurui is known as the God of Wine in our bureau. Since I met him, I have never seen him drunk. I didn't expect that you would knock him down today." When Jia Dongming heard Lin Jianjun's praise and thought of the real reason why he knocked these people down, he felt his cheeks burning. He replied a little embarrassedly: "Director Lin! I am mainly happy today, so my alcohol tolerance is a little better. If it were a normal day, I would probably be drunk a long time ago."

"Dongming! Being overly modest is hypocrisy. Last time when we were having dinner in our factory's canteen, you used the same method to get several people drunk." Lin Yuemei, who was standing aside, heard Jia Dongming's answer and remembered the scene when she had dinner with Jia Dongming last time. She couldn't help but speak out to expose Jia Dongming.

When Jia Dongming heard Lin Yuemei's answer, he thought of the last time when Chen Weizhong arranged for someone to force him to drink, and he couldn't help laughing: "Director Lin! There is a saying from the old man, one punch is enough to prevent a hundred punches! Whether on the battlefield or at the wine table, we must move forward courageously. Only in this way can victory belong to us."

When Lin Jianjun heard Jia Dongming's answer, he suddenly felt his eyes light up. He smiled and praised: "Director Jia! What you said is simply very good."

Lin Jianjun reached out to pick up the wine glass in front of him, and said to Jia Dongming with a smile: "Director Jia! Thanks to your help, I finally got through this difficult time. If you have any problems in the future and need help from me, just tell me."

When Jia Dongming heard what Lin Jianjun said, he quickly picked up his glass and gently clinked it with the glass in Lin Jianjun's hand. He smiled and said to Lin Jianjun, "Director Lin! I still say that the person you really want to thank should be our Director Lin. If she hadn't come to me, I wouldn't have helped you. After all, there are some things that I don't need to tell you. I believe you should know them."

When Lin Jianjun heard Jia Dongming's answer, he naturally understood what Jia Dongming meant. He quickly drank the wine in the glass and replied with a smile: "Director Jia! I understand what you mean. Only a few of us know about this matter. I promise that I will never let anyone else hear about it."

After hearing Lin Jianjun's promise, Jia Dongming drank the wine in his glass and said to Lin Jianjun with a smile, "Director Lin! It's getting late. Why don't we stop here and have a chance to drink again after the New Year."

When Lin Jianjun heard Jia Dongming's proposal, he looked at the time on his watch and replied with a smile, "Okay! Director Jia, let's wait until after the New Year and find an opportunity to get together again."

After the dinner, Jia Dongming pushed his bicycle out of the gate of the Industrial Bureau and said goodbye to Lin Jianjun and his sister with a smile: "Director Li! Director Lin! Thank you for your hospitality today. It's getting late, so I'll go back first."

Lin Jianjun watched Jia Dongming riding his bicycle and disappearing into the night. He then put away the smile on his face and said to Lin Yuemei who was standing beside him: "Yuemei! Although Jia Dongming is only a deputy director, his background is not simple at all. If Chen Weizhong goes to cause trouble for him, it will be like an egg hitting a stone."
