Chapter 90 Done
The deputy director said so many good things, but seeing that Director Liu showed no sign of relenting, he said with determination, "Dayong, go home and reflect on yourself. You're getting even more outrageous!"
The guard looked up at the deputy director in disbelief: "Second Uncle."
The deputy director frowned and said, "Call me deputy director in the factory."
The guard didn't know how he ended up like this after just hesitating a few times with a country representative.
The guard saw that his uncle's face was dark and gloomy. Now he finally showed his attitude and thought that he would do it this way for now and talk about it when he got home.
The guard glared at Lu Xiang as he left.
Factory Director Liu saw this and angrily said to the deputy factory director, "How unreasonable!"
The deputy director frowned and said, "That's outrageous. I'll tell my eldest brother when I get home and give him a good beating. This brat has no idea how high the heavens are or how deep the earth is."
The deputy director sighed inwardly. This unpromising nephew had registered with the director, and it would be difficult for him to run the fertilizer factory in the future.
The deputy factory director then said to Lu Xiang, "Miss, I'm sorry you've been wronged. I'll definitely teach that bastard a lesson."
Director Liu brought Lu Xiang to his office. He was also filled with guilt. He saw that Lu Xiang was carrying a lunch box. She must have brought it because she saw that he liked it yesterday!
Such a thoughtful girl, now she had been out in the open for half a day and poured tea for Lu Xiang personally. Because it was a female comrade visiting him, Director Liu did not close the door.
Lu Xiang said, "I made some simple food at home and wanted to send some to you. It might be cold, so you can go to the cafeteria and heat it up."
Director Liu felt warm in his heart and felt more guilty towards Lu Xiang. He called his male secretary and said, "Send it to the cafeteria to heat it up." No matter whether it tasted good or not, it was Lu Xiang's thoughtful gesture.
Director Liu said, "Comrade Lu Xiang, today was indeed an accident. I will never rehire a security guard who is so arrogant. You helped me find the corrupt official in the company, and I am very grateful to you."
Director Liu had a soft spot for Lu Xiang. A clever girl like her wouldn't have had much opportunity to develop in the village, but she would have found a different life outside.
There are many good jobs in big companies like theirs, and you can get promoted there, which is better than working in the countryside.
Thinking of this, Director Liu's expression became even more gentle. He said, "Would you like to come work here? What I said to you yesterday still stands."
Lu Xiang said, "No, it's fine in the countryside." The city's vegetables, rice, flour, grain, and oil all come from the countryside, and now that private business is prohibited, life isn't as comfortable as in the countryside. "Besides, I'm married."
When Director Liu heard this, he stopped trying to persuade him.
Looking at Lu Xiang's age, even if they are married, they are newlyweds. If he interferes, wouldn't it cause the couple to separate?
Lu Xiang continued, "I came here this time to talk about fertilizer. Our village has plans to build a new countryside. We need your support." It won't work if there is not enough fertilizer.
Director Liu said, "I told you last time that there really isn't enough fertilizer. It's not that I won't give you any." The autumn harvest is about to begin, and after this crop of grain is harvested, preparations must be made for next year's spring plowing.
Now, the people who call him for social events are all from companies that want to buy fertilizers.
Lu Xiang said, "Our village doesn't need much. Just two tons will do. Consider it your support for us."
Director Liu laughed and said, "You little girl." The two-ton figure was a good estimate. A director of his rank wouldn't be so incompetent.
It's up to you or not! But Director Liu really admired Lu Xiang, and since Lu Xiang had just been wronged, he felt a bit compensatory and said, "Just this once, and it won't happen again." He really didn't have enough fertilizer to go around.
Director Liu wrote me a note with the official seal on it. Just bring this with you when you pick it up.
To be honest, this note can be sold for at least a thousand yuan.
Lu Xiang was very happy to see the note and said a lot of nice things, which made Director Liu very happy. Lu Xiang completed the task and went back!
The secretary quickly heated up large steamed dumplings and braised beef. As they were brought over, the aroma filled the corridor.
Many people who were working in the office came out to look around.
"Secretary Wang, what are you holding?" It smells so good.
Secretary Wang said, "It's the factory director's meal." He was closest to the table and was also very greedy.
Director Liu was also lured out by such delicious food. He stood at the office door and looked around. Secretary Wang didn't dare to hesitate and quickly took it!
Director Liu took a look and was surprised to see large steamed dumplings filled with beef and radish, and chunks of braised beef.
He'd heard beef was expensive, but when he smelled it today, he suddenly felt it made sense.
I picked up a piece of braised beef and put it in my mouth. It was stewed to be extremely soft, and the beef tendons on it were chewy and sticky. The meat was very fragrant, and the more I chewed, the more fragrant it became.
The big dumplings were almost as big as my palm. I picked up one and took a bite. The beef and radish were well combined together. It was so delicious that it was even better without dipping it in anything else.
If you add some vinegar to it, it would be absolutely amazing! After finishing one, I quickly had a second one, and after eating two, I still had eight left.
Director Liu found these dumplings and beef stew even more authentic than those in state-owned restaurants. He said, "Pack them all up and take them home."
Director Liu has been to the big restaurants and canteens many times, but the food he ate this time was the most delicious and satisfying.
Secretary Wang was ravenous, so he reluctantly gave him a large steamed dumpling. He refused to give him the braised beef. He was planning to pour himself a glass of white wine that evening to go with it!
Secretary Wang praised the meal highly: "It's delicious." He even started planning to buy two pounds of beef today and take it home to make some dumplings. As the factory director's secretary, his salary was not low, so he didn't think much about food on weekdays.
But this dumpling can’t tempt him!
Director Liu said the food was sent by Lu Xiang. He even joked to Secretary Wang, "You agreed to the fertilizer thing too early. Otherwise, I could have gotten a few more meals."
…
Lu Xiang returned to the village and immediately went to the village chief. She showed him the note. The village chief was shocked and held it like a treasure. He rubbed it against his body several times to prevent his hands from getting sweaty and dirty.
"You're really amazing!" The village chief was impressed. He hadn't heard of any village being able to buy fertilizer from the fertilizer factory in all these years.
The village chief now looks at Lu Xiang more affectionately than his own daughter.
Lu Xiang said, "The factory manager said this is the only time we can sell it!"
The village chief said, "That's good."
Lu Xiang said to the village chief: "Then... the pig-raising procedures are left to you." The reason why Lu Xiang was so active was that she was working hard on the pig-raising matter.
The village chief said, "Since I promised you, I will definitely do it! But let me be frank. If there is a loss, or if the pigs are not raised well, you will have to bear the loss yourself."
Lu Xiang said, "The pig farm is willing to provide technical support."
When the village chief heard this, he was overjoyed and felt that Lu Xiang was even more extraordinary. She had already arranged everything before the whole thing was even started.
