"So that's how it is." Deputy Director Li's brain was working quickly, and he said, "How about this, I'll transfer you to the steel rolling mill so that you can be together every day. It just so happens that our factory is in need of a doctor."
Li Qinghe quickly waved his hand and refused, "No, my girlfriend is going to college after the new year, let's talk about it after she graduates."
"I didn't expect that your sister-in-law is a highly educated person. Brother Li is so lucky. I have heard of Ding Qiunan. She is the belle of the machine repair factory. I didn't expect that you would marry her. It is her blessing to marry you." Deputy Director Li laughed.
Then he said, "Okay, leave your trip to Hong Kong City to me, and I'll reimburse you for the airfare."
Knowing that Li Qinghe would not run away, he agreed very readily. Moreover, since it was an official business, he didn't have to spend any money, so he naturally didn't feel bad about it.
Li Qinghe naturally understood the situation and did not refuse. He thanked him immediately, "Thank you so much, Director Li. You have helped me a lot. You don't know that I am still worried about the letter of introduction. There is really nothing I can do."
I sighed in my heart that Director Yang's courage and breadth of mind were far inferior to those of Deputy Director Li.
Following Director Yang, there are small favors, but it is difficult to get any benefits from him. You can't take what he doesn't give. Li Qinghe also mentioned to him that he wanted to go to Gangcheng, but he rejected it outright. He even tried to brainwash Li Qinghe, putting all kinds of justice on the table. Anyway, you have to do it even if there is no benefit.
But Deputy Director Li knew that his subordinates also needed to be won over with benefits, so he was willing to give them. Of course, he also knew that he could not win over Li Qinghe without his consent.
Li Qinghe was not thoughtful enough about this matter. Not everyone can take a plane these days. In addition to a letter of introduction, one also needs to check one's identity and so on.
But now with the help of Deputy Director Li, things are much simpler. It will be even more convenient when he becomes the director.
Deputy Director Li smiled and said, "Come on, come on, brother Li, have another drink. Visit me often in the future. If you have any problems, just come to me. If I can handle it, I will definitely not refuse. If anyone doesn't give you face, then they are not giving me face."
"Director Li, I toast to you."
Li Qinghe raised his glass and clinked it with his.
Now both of them understood each other tacitly, without saying anything about agreement or disagreement. Li Qinghe took the glass of wine, which represented his opinion.
"Director Li, we have 4,000 kilograms of pork, 2,000 kilograms of venison, 1,000 white-striped chickens, and eggs and offal these two days. Are you interested? If you want, I'll ask for you. It will be ready by tomorrow night."
Li Qinghe usually doesn't sell venison to others. He keeps it for himself or gives it as gifts. After all, it is a very nutritious and good thing. The two women in his family like it very much and eat it almost every day.
Coupled with the spring water in the space, they are now radiant and have smooth skin, which is envied by countless young girls and wives in the factory.
The reason why they brought out venison this time is because the Chinese New Year is approaching and Deputy Director Li will definitely have to work together to build relationships and get some good things. The venison is just right and it also shows their own strength.
"This little brother has a keen eye."
Deputy Director Li sighed inwardly. He had wanted to order some Li Qinghe, but before he even opened his mouth, someone brought it to him.
"What's the price? Don't worry, just tell me. I won't make it difficult for you."
Everything else is fine, but this venison is a real good thing that is rarely seen in normal times.
Deer only give birth to one baby at each birth. They have many natural enemies and their numbers are already scarce. The forests around the imperial capital have even been cleared by hunters.
Li Qinghe smiled and said, "Of course I believe Director Li. I know the prices. Pork is 2.5 yuan per catty. Deer meat is more expensive, 5 yuan. White-striped chicken is 3 yuan each, and eggs are 1 yuan per catty. You see..."
"No problem, I'll take them all. Brother, you have to help me and get this done quickly."
Deputy Director Li did not think it was expensive at all; instead, he thought it was cheap.
It’s New Year’s Day and everything is in short supply and expensive. Other things are okay and you can still find them at the pigeon market, but venison is really hard to find. Sometimes you don’t even see it for two or three years.
"Okay, if you think it's suitable, I'll find a way to get it for you. Don't worry, I'll do it for you." Li Qinghe downed a glass of wine and promised loudly.
"Okay, okay, I was right about you." Deputy Director Li smiled so hard that his eyes almost disappeared. He personally poured wine for Li Qinghe and even picked up a piece of meat. "Come on, come on, drink two more glasses with your brother."
Li Qinghe felt a little disgusted. Forget about pouring wine, but why are you, a grown man, picking up any dish?
But he didn't show it. After all, it was a different era and the way to express closeness was also different.
In ancient times, people walked hand in hand and slept with their feet touching. Two grown men holding hands and sleeping together may seem disgusting to modern people, but it was the highest courtesy at that time.
Similarly, in the eyes of Li Qinghe who came from later generations, Deputy Director Li’s actions were disgusting, but in this era, subordinates still accepted this.
So, Li Qinghe smiled and picked up the dish, but as soon as he put it in his mouth, it was taken back into the space and fed directly to the pigs.
After the drinking party, Deputy Director Li sent him back to the dormitory, and then went home. Sitting in the car, he sighed that the trip was worthwhile and the past few days were not wasted.
After Deputy Director Li left, Li Qinghe immediately sobered up and the drunkenness in his eyes disappeared immediately.
"Haha, after so many days of acting with him, it finally paid off."
He laughed a few times and went forward to knock on the door.
After a few seconds, Liang Ladi opened the door and scolded: "Look at you, why do you drink every day these days? Don't you know that it is bad for your health?"
Although he said that, he still supported Li Qinghe considerately, pouring water for him and wiping his face.
Ding Qiunan looked at the busy Liang Ladi, covered her mouth and smiled, "Sister Liang, you can be stubborn, but Qinghe, you really should drink less. Don't hurt your body if you do this every day."
"Okay, I get it. I won't do it again. I can't help it. A deputy factory director comes to drink with me every day. I have to give him some face."
Now is a critical period. Li Qinghe needs to keep a low profile and protect the people he cares about from the coming storm. He needs some help.
He originally wanted to use Director Yang as a bridge, but he had no moral principles and only wanted to keep Li Qinghe in his hands and use him as a shady tool, forcing Li Qinghe to abandon him and make new plans.
Deputy Director Li is the new helper he is looking for.
Ding Qiunan held Li Qinghe's head in her arms with some distress, and said softly: "Okay, I know everything. Go and take a shower. The water is ready."
Li Qinghe's eyes lit up, "Can you rub my back?"
"What are you thinking about every day? It's not serious at all." Ding Qiunan blushed. Even though they had been married for so long, she still felt a little embarrassed.
In the end, he couldn't resist Li Qinghe and had to agree.
The next day, Li Qinghe went out for a walk for half a day, then said something to Deputy Director Li and returned to the courtyard.
