Lin Tian found that after Zhu Siyuan suffered two setbacks, he began to linger in the secret door, which made him feel more at ease.
Zhu Siyuan, who lingers in secret doors, is a good leader. At least Lin Tian and Li Wenhua think so.
………
There is also Xu Damao who lingers in front of the widow's door and tries his best to become a leader.
Lin Tian had just come back from get off work and Xu Damao was waiting for him at the door. He probably wanted to ask Lin Tian for advice again.
"Brother, let's go to my house for a drink. I've been waiting for you for a long time." Xu Damao said when he saw Lin Tian coming back.
"Okay, I'll go home and put things away." Lin Tian returned home, put things away, and prepared another meat dish as usual.
"Come on, let's have one." Xu Damao picked up the wine glass and said, then Xu Damao drank it in one gulp.
"Brother Damao, what's wrong? You seem unhappy. You even drank so much!" Lin Tian said. You can't act stupid when someone invites you to drink. Just chat.
"Hey, you said I...you said what's wrong with me..." As he spoke, he drank another one.
"I've been pissed off recently. I thought about what my brother said before, that we need to have a good relationship with the leader, so I went to give us some gifts, but this guy threw it out to me." Xu Damao was almost pissed off. He had something to give but couldn't give it away.
"You must have offended someone badly. He wouldn't dare to accept your gift without a reason." Lin Tian said after thinking for a while.
Xu Damao thought for a moment, then said, "Actually, I didn't really offend him. He just wanted me to hire a projectionist. I didn't agree. What nonsense! This is a craft passed down in my family. I have to pass it on to my son. How can I let him learn it casually?"
“That can’t be taught randomly.” Lin Tian nodded. In this era, people are still quite conservative about craftsmanship and believe that it is a stable job that can be passed down from generation to generation. However, Xu Damao’s wish may be destined to fail.
Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s just talk about the two apprentices that Sha Zhu took in, but in the end he never taught them anything.
"Then you offended him? Not really. This kind of thing is understandable." Lin Tian asked. He thought it was definitely not because of this matter.
"Hmph, he arranged people here, how could I indulge him? I was squeezed out after a few days, and later went to the logistics department." Xu Damao seemed to have suffered a great injustice.
Lin Tian: “………….”
Xu Damao was determined to offend people to death. No wonder he had no choice but to give gifts to Li Huaide for so many years, and he had to wait until the Lou family fell.
"Your section chief is a fool who doesn't know what's good. He won't accept gifts. You can find another leader." Lin Tian advised.
"I thought so too, so a while ago, while I was showing a movie for the leaders, I tried to build a relationship with Director Yang, but in the end I wasn't even allowed to eat." Xu Damao almost dropped his wine glass when he talked about this.
"Huh? Tell me in detail." Lin Tian was quite curious about what stupid thing Xu Damao had done again.
"A few days ago, several leaders from other places came to the factory, and Director Yang arranged for me to show a short movie for them, and then we went to have dinner after the show." Xu Damao said.
"Yeah!" Lin Tian nodded after listening. This was also very normal. The steel rolling mill was of a quite high level, so it was not surprising to get some internal films.
"Director Yang had seen this movie a long time ago, so I met Director Yang outside. Director Yang chatted with me out of concern, and then I said a few bad things about our section chief. As a result, Director Yang got angry and told me to get out as soon as the movie was shown," said Xu Damao.
It turned out that the bad-mouthing behind the leader started from this time. Although Lin Tian didn't know who Director Yang was, who would dare to employ someone like Xu Damao who spoke ill of the leader everywhere?
"Why are you saying bad things about your leader?" Lin Tian asked in confusion.
"I saw Director Yang spoke very kindly, so I wanted to give our section chief some advice. Who would have thought he was angry?" Xu Damao said as a matter of course.
Xu Damao still doesn't understand where he went wrong. He still thought that Director Yang and their section chief were in cahoots.
"Alas, your attempt to seek refuge with Director Yang was unsuccessful." Lin Tian said.
"Well, yes, I have offended two people this time. Do you think there is still hope for me as a leader?" Xu Damao asked unwillingly, hoping that Lin Tian would give him some comfort.
Lin Tian was too lazy to comfort him, so he asked, "Didn't you say you had a good idea last time? What was the result? I didn't hear you talking about it."
When Xu Damao heard Lin Tian say this, his face brightened up a little, and some hope emerged. He said, "Actually, I went to my father-in-law's house last time. He is still a shareholder of the steel plant. I wanted him to help say a word or introduce me to a leader."
"What's the result?"
"I'm still waiting for news. I don't think there's any problem." Xu Damao said confidently.
Then he continued, "Even Director Yang has to give face to the shareholders. He is half the boss anyway."
"Yeah, you're right." Lin Tian did not shatter Xu Damao's last hope, letting him figure it out slowly on his own.
"Come on, come on, have a drink. I tell you brother, I must become the leader. I can't stand watching Liu Haizhong being the only official in this compound. Also, I want to do better than that stinky cook Sha Zhu." Xu Damao was already a little drunk, and everything came out of his mouth.
"Brother Damao, come on!" Lin Tian could only cheer him up.
Lin Tian estimated that if he wanted to be an official, unless the Lou family was finished, even Li Huaide would not offend the Lou family for money. This was not 1966 yet.
"Damn it, I must be better than that stinky cook. He is a piece of rotten fish and shrimp. I am no good now. If I can't be a leader, what hope do I have?" Xu Damao was completely exhausted and probably had blacked out at this time.
Lin Tian: ??? You can’t do it anymore? I overheard some big news.
"Brother, you have to help me. You can also help me think of a way to let me meet Director Li. If Director Yang is not available, there is still Director Li. I tell you, brother is not short of money." Xu Damao's voice became lower and lower, and finally he just passed out drunk.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, Brother Damao is drunk." Lin Tian called out to Lou Xiao'e who was doing something in the inner room.
When Lou Xiao'e heard the voice, she looked disgusted, but she still took the initiative to support Xu Damao and wanted to help him to the inner room.
Lin Tian was supporting Xu Damao on the other side. Maybe because she was using too much force and she didn't wear much at home, Lou Xiao'e's clothes were deformed.
After helping Xu Damao onto the kang, Lin Tian quickly slipped away and went home to take a bath to cool down.
After thinking about it, it seems that the seniors all like to make trouble, but Lin Tian dare not.
Thinking about Xu Damao, I really... dare not!
