Li Qinghe took two boxes of cigars and walked quickly to the office.
Boom boom boom~
"Come in."
Li Qinghe opened the door and said with a smile: "Director Li, I'm busy."
Deputy Director Li saw him and laughed, "Qinghe, it's you. You're finally back. I thought you were reluctant to come back."
Although I know that the other party is unlikely to stay in Hong Kong, anything can happen before everything is settled.
After all, the gap between the port city and the inland is indeed quite large. Not to mention Li Qinghe, if he couldn't let go of his status here, he might not be willing to come back after going there.
"How could that be? The factory has been very kind to me, and Director Li has been so good to me, so how could I not want to come back?" Li Qinghe complimented him and put two boxes of cigars on the table. "It's not easy for me to go there once, and I don't know what local specialties to bring back, so I just bought some at random."
Looking at the exquisite packaging, Deputy Director Li's smile deepened.
Although I don't know what it is, I can tell from its appearance that it is a good thing and definitely not some local specialty.
"Look, I've been on a business trip for half a month, it's hard enough, how can I let you spend money on it?" He pointed to the sofa, "Hurry and sit down."
Li Qinghe sat down and said with a smile, "It's just a matter of convenience. Director Li trusts me so much, I always remember it. This is what I should do."
"You, you."
Deputy Director Li smiled so hard that wrinkles appeared on his face. He stood up and sat opposite him. "I'm not saying anything bad about you, Qinghe, but you are just too ambitious. If you want, you can choose any position in the factory."
Li Qinghe curled his lips in his heart, I am not small-minded, but I just don't care about the good position in the factory.
There is not much power, but there are a lot of things to do. Moreover, during this period, who knows how long you can keep the position? You may be promoted today and kicked out as soon as you get to work tomorrow.
And what can you do with that little salary increase? If you have something to do, you can just go to Deputy Director Li to handle it. It really makes no difference whether you are a leader or not.
If you really want to go up, wait until the situation stabilizes. Then it will be easy and you can sit safely. Isn't it better than now?
You know, if he gets promoted now, even if he secures his position, he will be labeled as Deputy Director Li, and he will be doomed. Why should I get in?
It doesn't seem like he really wants to help himself up.
"Forget it, Director Li, you know that I have no ambitions. I would only feel troubled if you really gave me more burdens." Li Qinghe waved his hand with a wry smile.
Director Li looked helpless. "You, what can I say? Okay, everyone has their own aspirations. I can't force you to do something if you don't want to."
He was quite satisfied with Li Qinghe's answer. He would be worried if Li Qinghe really wanted to go up.
The resources in Li Qinghe's hands are too important and will inevitably affect his position.
Even though he is the deputy factory director and will soon become the factory director, Li Qinghe was able to obtain so many supplies, so the connections behind him must be complicated. If he really wants to climb up, he may not be able to stop him.
"I can't help it. I don't have any ambitions. I just want a wife and children. By the way, does our factory have any vacancies?"
"Why? Someone asked?" asked Deputy Director Li.
Li Qinghe scratched his head awkwardly. "The second uncle in our yard, Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level blacksmith in the factory, has a second son who is about to graduate and wants to find a job, so he asked me to ask around.
"Originally I didn't want to get involved, but after all we see each other every day, and he helped me a lot during the time I was not at home, so it was hard to refuse, so..."
"I see... How is your relationship? What are your educational backgrounds?"
"We only graduated from junior high school and we are not close friends. Just follow the rules and don't make an exception for me. Otherwise, I would be embarrassed to ask for help." Li Qinghe gestured quickly.
Deputy Director Li had an idea in mind and said with a smile, "Okay, since he is the son of a seventh-level section worker and has a junior high school education, our factory needs such talents, so let's give him the same job as his father. I'll write a note and you can give it to him and ask him to report in two days.
"But let's make it clear first. We have to start as interns and follow the rules. Is that ok?"
Li Qinghe nodded quickly, "No problem, no problem, I can explain it this way.
"Oh, my friend got some antlers and deer penises. I'm going to visit him these two days. There are too many things for me to finish. They will go bad if left for too long. Please help me share the burden. I'll bring you some soup. It's not a good thing, so please don't despise it."
Deputy Factory Director Li smiled brightly, "No problem, no problem. We are friends now, and it is my duty to help you share some of the burden."
After that, the two talked for a while. Before leaving, Li Qinghe turned around and said, "By the way, my friend told me that your subordinate wanted to make friends with him last night and asked me to apologize on his behalf. His identity is a bit sensitive and it is not suitable to make friends with him."
Deputy Director Li's expression froze for a moment, then he recovered immediately and laughed, "Your friend is very powerful. My subordinates tried to get close to me privately without permission. I'm really sorry. Please tell them that you must manage your subordinates well in the future."
"Okay, I'll find time to go and tell you. You go ahead and do your work. I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, Li Qinghe opened the door and left.
Here, the moment the door closed, the smile on Deputy Director Li’s face disappeared and turned ashen.
He really didn't know that his subordinates wanted to use connections when delivering the goods, and Li Qinghe would not talk nonsense about such things, after all, it was too easy to verify.
It is obvious that one of his subordinates has changed his mind and is about to get out of control, or has been won over by someone.
Either way, it's not a good thing for him.
Things like this are always assigned to the most trusted people, because they cannot be exposed to the public. If they are leaked, they will be in trouble.
"It seems that some people think they have grown wings!"
Deputy Director Li's eyes flashed with cold light.
As soon as I returned to the office and sat down, Yang Xiuhe came over with Master Sun.
"No, what are you two doing?"
Looking at the two people's excited expressions, Li Qinghe was confused.
"Haha, it's not during the time you were away that Lao Sun and I practiced very hard. Now our chess skills have improved a lot, and I wanted to verify it with you." Yang Xiuhe laughed and started to set up the chessboard.
Li Qinghe's face was filled with helplessness. He was playing chess again, and against two terrible chess players.
But he really had nothing to do, so he just went down with them.
It was not until the bell rang at noon that Li Qinghe got up tiredly. Playing chess with these two people was too brain-intensive. In order to save their face, he always had to think about how to make them lose without looking too bad. Every move had to be carefully considered. Even Li Qinghe's brain would feel tired.
"Haha, it seems that our chess skills have really improved. I beat your apprentice in five games, but you only won four."
"Humph, you're just lucky. Xiao Li made a mistake. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to show off like this!"
Unlike Li Qinghe, Yang Xiuhe and the others were energetic and even a little excited.
Li Qinghe's mouth twitched as he watched this. He regretted letting the opponent win on purpose. He should have won by making their scalps tingle and seeing how they would show off!
