Chapter 820 Qiao Zuwang's Last Shiver
As the saying goes, "A red flower becomes redder if you are close to a red flower; a black flower becomes blacker if you are close to a red flower..." Tong Zhi just watched Da Zhuang live a carefree life every day, and Zhuang's wife didn't dare to intervene at all...
But he was timid and was bullied by Fang Zhuoya everywhere... He just released his accumulated anger.
"Da Zhuang, do you think Fang Zhuoya will divorce me?"
Da Zhuang looked around the yard and saw that no one was coming, so he lowered his voice.
"Are you still a man? You are a skilled worker and you are afraid that you can't get married! There are so many young girls in the steel mill. Don't you know how many people envy your salary? Just get a divorce, what's there to be afraid of... I don't believe she dares to get a divorce. Anyway, you won't suffer any loss, you have been sleeping for so long..."
Tong Zhi thought about it and it made sense. With his high salary, he could marry anyone.
……
A noisy night passed like this in all parts of the city, with some people happy and some sad.
Early in the morning, Lin Chen looked at Lou Xiao'e and the others who were soundly asleep and left quietly...
The temperature in the city dropped sharply at the end of November...
The temperature in the morning was more than ten degrees below zero.
Tong Zhi didn't sleep well because of Fang Zhuoya's disturbance all night... When they went out in the morning, neither of them paid any attention to each other.
But it’s different with our neighbor Dazhuang. Mrs. Zhuang still gets up early to make breakfast for her husband.
Courtyard house
Everyone sets out to work in groups...
"Da Mao, you said that I have suppressed Jia Zhang now... What should I do next?"
Now Qiao Zuwang hangs out with Xu Damao all day long, and he asks the other about everything.
In order to win over the Qiao family, Xu Damao also told them everything he knew...
After all, an alliance with the He family is not a long-term solution. The He family father and son are too cunning... They always wait until I suffer a loss before taking action.
"Uncle Qiao, you still have one last step left... that is to set up a table and invite a few gentlemen. After they have fed and drunk your food, they will take you out to play..."
Qiao Zuwang felt that what Xu Damao said made sense, but his current living expenses... he still borrowed money from Qi Zhiqiang, so how could he have any surplus to treat guests. But he had already come through the nine-nine-fold pilgrimage, so this last shiver didn't matter. At most, the wool came from the sheep...
"Thank you Damao, Uncle Qiao understands! When I become the fifth uncle, I will not forget you. Uncle Qiao is not well off these days, I will definitely set up a table when I get paid..."
Xu Damao wanted to hear this sentence... The two of them walked to the steel mill arm in arm. After all, the salary would be paid in a few days, so there was no need to rush.
Jia Dongxu, who was standing behind the crowd, looked at the two people giggling and felt inexplicably disgusted.
After this guy returned home last night, Jia Zhang, in order to gain sympathy, held Bang Geng and cried to her son...how she was bullied by the Qiao family all day.
Jia Dongxu looked at the miserable appearance of his mother and son, and felt a certain resentment towards the Qiao family.
The Jia family was actually controlled by the new Qiao family! Isn't this a disgrace... Jia Dongxu was thinking about finding an opportunity to teach Qiao Zuwang a lesson.
"Big fool, do you think the Qiao family is relying on their large numbers to suppress my mother in order to establish their authority?"
The two brothers Yicheng and Erqiang, plus Qiao Zuwang...the three of them are indeed a fighting force in the courtyard, and Jia Dongxu is really no match for them.
Otherwise, Jia Dongxu wouldn't have said a word after finding out last night... If the Liu family didn't support me, I would have been going to the Qiao family to die!
"Brother Sanbang, you...you don't know what Aunt Jia said. Anyone would beat her up. My dad has already told her to go home and stop making trouble, but she won't listen...what else can I do?"
Liu Daleng recounted what happened last night...
As soon as Jia Dongxu heard what the other party meant... he knew that the Liu family did not support his counterattack.

Rolling mill
As soon as Lin Chen arrived at the office, An Jie notified him to go to the fourth floor conference room for a meeting...
"I'll go see what's going on. Why are you suddenly calling everyone for a meeting?"
Lin Chen has already seen the workshop directors rushing over here...
With a playful smile, Anjie began to act coquettishly and issued a challenge, and Schumann and Irina gave her the task.
"Brother Lin Chen, let's play mahjong in Xiyang Hutong tonight! I want to try my luck in the next two days... You can't just fool me."
Anjie was now learning a lot of witty remarks, and Lin Chen naturally agreed with them.
"Aunt Song informed me this morning that Miss Chang wants to treat me to dinner tonight... You guys shuffle the cards and wait for me..."
When Anjie heard the cards being shuffled, he burst out laughing.
"No problem! That's settled then!"
After teasing Anjie, Lin Chen went to the large conference room upstairs.
Secretary Wan went to the Ministry yesterday and called a meeting today. It seems that the Ministry has some new instructions...
Lin Chen looked at Kodlov and his four experts being called over, and guessed that it was related to technology and production.
At this time, Li Huaide came to the meeting room... When he saw Lin Chen, he went up to greet him directly. After being beaten, he thought that there must be remnants of the Lou family... He had originally looked down on Lin Chen, but now he began to take him seriously again.
"Morning, Director Lin!"
"Good morning, Director Li!"
Li Huaide is now in high spirits and greets everyone he meets happily.
Lin Chen thought you were still in a good mood to laugh. I can sell Feng Shigao to you... I can also sell you to Feng Shigao. He has his uncle to back him up. I just don't know who you can find to back you up...
This guy is supporting a young widow. Not to mention Feng Shigao knowing about it...even if the Xu family knew about it, they would not forgive him.
"Director Lin, when are you free... I'll treat you to a visit at Donglaishun."
"Any time is fine. Who would refuse meat now?"
The two looked at each other and laughed...
conference room
"Everyone, please be quiet. I will first read out the administrative level adjustments and corresponding benefits after the Chinese New Year. This department has already discussed and approved this yesterday..."
The entire conference room fell silent. This was exactly what everyone was most concerned about. The Chinese New Year was only a month away... Everyone wanted to know what benefits they would receive next year.
Secretary Wan read for half an hour before he finished reading out the list of salaries for those at the section level and above.
Lin Chen's administrative level was officially upgraded to department level.
Then he drank a sip of tea and began to announce new tasks.
"Director Lin, could you please translate the next meeting content for the experts later..."
Lin Chen nodded to indicate that there was no problem...
Secretary Wan then continued...
"Comrades, the ministry has issued a new task for next year. It is to develop new special steel... Our factory has the expert group of Big Brother and our own expert group, and I have also received this task. However, there are other factories that have received the task at the same time... This is also a kind of competition and test to see which company develops the best steel... The ministry will use that company's steel. Our steel rolling mill is a newly established large factory. Whether we can show our potential depends on this time..."
Lin Chen finally understood what it meant. After all this time, they were trying to make a new type of cannon barrel! This was so easy... The steel mill must take first place next year!
If I take the trouble to arrange four senior engineers of my own, wouldn't that mean they can work for me? In this way, I don't have to show up at all, and I can solve these problems.
