The next morning, Xu Xiangyang came to the garment factory after breakfast.

There was a man sitting in the small pavilion at the door. He was the factory guard.

He glanced away and headed straight for the office.

Although he didn't know what the gatekeeper had done last night and why he hadn't come back for so long, he didn't plan to go up and question him.

On the way here just now, he didn't see anyone in the snow, and even the snow pit where the person fell had been cleaned up.

With a snowfall in the middle of the night, there was no trace left.

I don't know if that person cleaned it after waking up, or if someone else cleaned it for him...

Xu Xiangyang collected his thoughts and called the clerical office.

"Hello? Factory director's office, ask Secretary Liang to come over." He said in a flat tone and hung up the phone.

In less than a minute, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in."

Liang Wenfang walked in, glanced at Xu Xiangyang, and said, "Director Xu."

She didn't ask what was the matter. The leader would naturally give instructions if there was anything.

Xu Xiangyang nodded, explained the situation, and asked her to go to the security guard.

It would be more appropriate for her to go than to ask myself.

More than twenty minutes later, Liang Wenfang came back again.

"Director Xu, Lao Lin from the security office had diarrhea last night and stayed in the toilet for more than two hours." Liang Wenfang said, feeling somewhat puzzled.

In theory, everyone has eaten the food in the factory, and the security guard always prepares an extra portion at noon, so everyone knows whether there is any problem or not.

Why did I suddenly have diarrhea?

She didn't know what was going on, so she looked at Xu Xiangyang in confusion.

Did something happen after get off work? Did something go missing from the factory?

Xu Xiangyang glanced at her, ignoring her curious look, and said, "Okay, I understand. You can go back and get busy."

Curiosity killed the cat. The fewer people who know about his affairs, the better.

When Liang Wenfang saw that he stopped talking, she felt a little disappointed, but she still went back obediently.

After all, she was not qualified to ask about the factory director's affairs, and she would get annoyed if she asked too much.

Xu Xiangyang watched her leave, feeling a little confused. Diarrhea lasting two hours? That was obviously impossible.

Who has diarrhea for more than two hours, their intestines must have come out, right?

But this is not impossible, he sighed, feeling uneasy.

After thinking about it, he asked the guard to add two more people to patrol.

Normally, there are two security guards working in shifts, and two more patrolling the factory.

But now it seems that two people a day are obviously not enough.

Two more people would also be helpful, at least there would be more people moving around.

In the afternoon, Xu Xiangyang went to the municipal government for another meeting, and this time he met Director Liao.

This man was still as serious and rigorous as ever, with a solemn expression on his face.

"Xiao Xu." Seeing Xu Xiangyang, his expression relaxed a lot.

The garment factory has recently started operations, and he hasn't had time to go there, but he has heard that everything is going well.

Xu Xiangyang smiled and nodded, "Captain Liao, everything has been going well lately, haven't you?"

Let’s talk about work later. You can’t just talk about work when you meet someone, right?

No matter what kind of leader it is, he can't stand this.

Liao Cechang hummed softly, then said, "Stay after the meeting. I want to talk to you."

Although he didn't know what to say specifically, Xu Xiangyang still responded positively.

The meeting started soon. Several people entered the conference room. Director Liao sat at the top seat, and the others sat down.

Xu Xiangyang glanced around and didn't recognize anyone except Xiao Zhenyu from the Grain Bureau.

It seems that my circle still needs to be developed. At least I need to get to know as many people as possible in this job.

Several people looked at each other and then said nothing.

Director Liao said everything simply and clearly, and then came the most important thing.

"Last year, the targets for each factory were similar, so we're raising the target this year. As for the target, we'll send you a document with the exact targets in a moment."

"And there are new instructions from above..."

The meeting lasted for two hours and everyone was a little tired after it ended.

After all, this meeting is the first meeting of the year, and there are still a lot of things to discuss.

The secretaries had been taking down the key points, so at the end of the meeting they all relaxed their fingers.

Xu Xiangyang glanced at the time. It was already past four o'clock. Just before the meeting, Director Liao had said he wanted to talk to him about something, and he hadn't forgotten it.

"Secretary Liang, please go back to the factory first. Just put the meeting minutes on my desk." He sent the secretary back first. Anyway, the two of them came here by bicycle.

The factory hasn't allocated any cars yet, so we are all waiting. This takes time.

When he has a car, it will be more convenient for Xu Xiangyang to go out. He won’t even need a driver because he can drive himself.

Of course, I don’t know whether others will do it.

The factory will also recruit drivers at that time. I heard that they have already started recruiting.

Thinking of this, he felt a lot more relaxed. If he was asked to ride a bicycle out to meetings frequently, that would really be the end of him.

Liang Wenfang didn't ask any more questions. She nodded to indicate that she understood and left with the others.

Xu Xiangyang looked back at Director Liao. He was still talking to others who had come for the meeting.

After thinking about it, he walked over calmly and stood beside.

"Director Liao, I won't bother you anymore. I'll visit you again when I have time." Xiao Zhenyu smiled gently.

Director Liao Ce was also smiling, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Xu Xiangyang stood not far away and saw this, and he had an idea in his mind, thinking that the two people probably had a deep friendship.

Although Xiao Zhenyu is only the deputy director of the Food Bureau now, he has connections in Peiping and was transferred from Peiping.

If nothing unexpected happens, this person will be transferred back to Peking in two or three years.

By then, you will not be a factory director or a bureau director, but a leader in a substantive position, holding real power.

After everyone left, Xu Xiangyang walked to the opposite side of Director Liao.

"Xiao Xu, come with me." Director Liao took him to the empty office next door.

Secretary Zheng glanced at Xu Xiangyang, then stood outside waiting unwillingly.

In fact, he had disliked Xu Xiangyang for a long time, but he had just started working with Director Liao and could not do much, so he had no time to do anything.

Looking at it today, Xu Xiangyang is getting better and better, which makes people jealous.

But he has nothing to brag about...

A gleam of light flashed in Secretary Zheng's eyes, and then a cunning smile appeared on his face.

"Captain Liao, is there any other work?" Xu Xiangyang asked.

He also received a work assignment during a previous meeting. He took a quick look at it and it seemed that the requirements were quite high.

Liao Ce sighed and said, "The project team has recently finished its work. If you have any questions, you can come to the municipal government to find me. Also, I have something else to tell you."

As he spoke, his expression became serious.
