Chapter 549 Deputy Director Xia’s request!
Around five o'clock in the evening, Jia Dongming first went to the logistics warehouse office, said hello to Qin Huairu who was about to get off work, and then walked towards the small canteen of the steel rolling mill.

When Jia Dongming walked to the door of the canteen, he saw Deputy Director Xia and Li Huaide standing there chatting.

When Li Huaide saw Jia Dongming coming, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically, "Director Jia! You are here."

When Deputy Factory Director Xia saw Jia Dongming coming, he immediately reached out and shook Jia Dongming's hand, and enthusiastically congratulated Jia Dongming: "Director Jia! Congratulations on your Security Section being officially upgraded to the Security Department!"

When Jia Dongming heard what the deputy factory director said, he smiled and shook hands with him, and said in a leisurely tone: "Thank you, factory leaders, for your support for the work of our security department."

Li Huaide was a little surprised when he saw Deputy Director Xia's attitude towards Jia Dongming, but when he thought of Jia Dongming's background, he attributed Deputy Director Xia's enthusiasm to Jia Dongming's background.

After seeing Jia Dongming exchanging greetings with Deputy Director Xia, Li Huaide immediately and enthusiastically said to Jia Dongming, "Director Jia! Dinner is ready and we are waiting for you. Please come in."

Jia Dongming followed Li Huaide and Deputy Director Xia and quickly walked into the canteen.

When the cadres of the steel rolling mill who were sitting in the box saw Jia Dongming coming, they all greeted him enthusiastically.

When Jia Dongming saw the people greeting him, he also greeted them politely, "Comrades, I was late because the Security Department had some urgent matters to deal with. I am sorry to have kept you waiting."

"Director Jia! I heard from Deputy Director Li that your alcohol tolerance is second to none in our steel mill. No one dares to say you are the best. Let's have a few more drinks tonight." When Deputy Director Xia heard Jia Dongming's words, he thought of his purpose of mobilizing the management of the steel mill to invite Jia Dongming, and immediately praised Jia Dongming.

When Jia Dongming heard what Deputy Director Xia said, he was immediately flattered and said to him, "Deputy Director Xia! You must not listen to what Deputy Director Li said. My drinking capacity is nothing compared to the seniors present here."

Soon the dishes were brought into the private room by the kitchen helpers. After everyone's glasses were full, Li Huaide was the first to raise his own glass and said to everyone present with a smile: "Deputy Director Lin! Deputy Director Xia! Comrades, let's toast to Director Jia with this first glass of wine. I wish Director Jia good luck in his work and a bright future!"

When everyone heard Li Huaide's words, they raised the glasses in front of them and expressed their blessings to Jia Dongming.

Jia Dongming heard the blessings from everyone. Although he didn't know how much of it was genuine and how much was fake, he thanked everyone with a happy face: "Dear leaders and comrades, first of all, on behalf of all the comrades in our Security Department, thank you for your blessings. I'll drink this glass of wine. Please help yourself."

After everyone finished their drinks, Li Huaide immediately asked his secretary to pour wine for everyone. When Deputy Director Xia saw that Jia Dongming's glass was full, he raised his glass and said to Jia Dongming in a friendly manner, "Director Jia! Although you have not been transferred to the steel rolling mill for a long time, this is the first time we sit together and drink."

"The reason why our steel mill can produce safely is because of the protection of your security department. I will offer this glass of wine on behalf of our steel mill to thank you for your contribution to our steel mill." After hearing what Deputy Director Xia said, Jia Dongming raised the glass in front of him and replied modestly: "Deputy Director Xia! I dare not admit what you said. The safety of our steel mill cannot be achieved by me alone. After all, personal strength is limited. It mainly depends on all the comrades in our security department."

When Deputy Factory Director Xia heard Jia Dongming's answer, he immediately pretended to be willing to learn and said to Jia Dongming with a smile: "Director Jia! You are right. I will drink a glass of wine as a punishment."

Deputy Director Xia drank the wine in the glass, then filled his own glass. He smiled and said to Jia Dongming, "Director Jia! The last glass of wine was my punishment. This glass of wine is for you."

When Jia Dongming heard what Deputy Director Xia said, he gently touched the wine glass in his hand with the other person's, and then drank the wine in the glass.

After seeing Deputy Director Xia drinking with Jia Dongming, several middle-level cadres from the steel rolling mill raised their glasses and began to toast Jia Dongming.

Because Jia Dongming had the space to cheat, he only drank the first few cups, and poured the rest into the space.

Soon the evening's drinking party was halfway through, and Deputy Director Xia, who was slightly drunk, smiled and asked Jia Dongming: "Director Jia! After your security department was upgraded, how will the staff deployment be arranged?"

Before coming to dinner, Jia Dongming had already learned from Lin Yuemei that Deputy Director Xia invited him to dinner because he was planning to place someone in their security department.

When Li Huaide heard Deputy Director Xia suddenly ask about the deployment of the Security Department, he was obviously stunned. He quickly said to Deputy Director Xia: "Old Xia! The staff of the Security Department is naturally under the responsibility of the Public Security Department. Why do you care about this matter?"

When Deputy Factory Director Xia heard Li Huaide's question, he thought of the real reason why he came to see Jia Dongming today, and he explained to Li Huaide and Jia Dongming: "Old Li! Director Jia! To be honest, my brother-in-law is a retired deputy company commander and is now waiting for a job. It just so happens that our factory's security department is going to recruit more people, so I was thinking about whether I could get him to the steel rolling mill so that we can take care of each other."

Jia Dongming originally thought that Deputy Director Xia wanted to place a deputy section chief in their security department. Now, after hearing what Deputy Director Xia said, he realized that Lin Yuemei had misunderstood Deputy Director Xia's intentions. However, one must be on guard against others. Jia Dongming smiled and said to Deputy Director Xia, "Deputy Director Xia! This time, the superiors will send an additional 100 people to our security department. As long as there is no problem on your side, I will definitely accept it."

Deputy Director Xia knew very well that although the higher-ups were responsible for the personnel dispatch, if Jia Dongming was unwilling to accept them, the higher-ups would have no choice but to take them back. With Jia Dongming's promise, Deputy Director Xia finally put down his worries. He quickly raised his glass and thanked Jia Dongming: "Director Jia! This glass of wine is for my brother-in-law to thank you."

After hearing what Deputy Director Xia said, Jia Dongming watched him finish the wine in one breath. Then he raised his glass and said to everyone with a smile: "Dear leaders! It's getting late, and there is still a lot of work to be done tomorrow morning. Why don't we just stop here first!"
