"Factory Manager, Mr. Li, let me make you both some tea!"
Deputy Section Chief Jin hurriedly made tea for Li Junsheng and Zheng Rong, while glaring at Tang Dongliang, telling this clueless guy to quickly make room for Li Junsheng.
Tang Dongliang stood up awkwardly. As soon as he moved aside, Qin Yong immediately sat down in the chair he had just been sitting in!
In just a few minutes, the status of the group underwent a tremendous change.
This time it was Qin Yong's turn to sit and leisurely stare at Tang Dongliang, who had nowhere to wait!
"Brother Li, have a smoke!"
Li Junsheng took the cigarette offered by Factory Director Zheng and reminisced with him, "Factory Director Zheng, how's business at the factory lately?"
This is also what Zheng Rong wanted to tell Li Junsheng. Whenever the topic of the factory's business came up, Zheng Rong's eyes would light up.
"Brother Li, thanks to you, the factory's business is booming, it's like the sun is rising!"
The phrase "at the height of one's power" made Li Junsheng laugh. Was it really that exaggerated?
Zheng Rong's words piqued Jin's curiosity. How could the factory's improved business be thanks to Li Junsheng?
"Director Zheng, does Boss Li have any connection with our factory? I have no idea!"
Zheng Rong nodded to Deputy Section Chief Jin and said without any hesitation, "Of course, we have a deep history. Brother Li used to be a long-time employee of our machinery factory, but unfortunately, our factory is too small to keep someone as capable as Brother Li!"
“Brother Li is a big boss now, but he still has old feelings for our machinery factory. When the factory faced layoffs and the crisis of closing down, it was Brother Li who gave us the advice.”
"He told me how the factory should transform and reform, including developing a countermeasure plan against German mechanical technology. He taught me this for free and without reservation. You could say that without him, there would be no machine factory today."
"I'd like to ask Brother Li for advice on how to proceed with the factory next!"
Zheng Rong's words were full of appreciation and respect for Li Junsheng.
Deputy Section Chief Jin was inwardly shocked, never expecting to offend such a powerful figure.
He even had a significant impact on major projects like the factory's transformation and reform. Deputy Section Chief Jin had no doubt that if Li Junsheng said a bad word about him to Director Zheng, he would have no chance of being promoted in the future!
Therefore, Deputy Section Chief Jin realized that he absolutely could not offend Li Junsheng.
"Oh, I see. Then I must offer Mr. Li a cup of tea. If it weren't for your selfless dedication, I and so many other workers in the factory would be unemployed."
Deputy Section Chief Jin dared not offend Li Junsheng again, so he brought over tea and fawned over Li Junsheng.
Li Junsheng reached out and took the tea offered by him, but paid little attention to him, only catching up with Director Zheng!
Tang Dongliang was still standing to the side when he saw Li Junsheng being able to act like a brother to the factory director of the machinery factory, showing how powerful his connections were. He was dumbfounded.
I thought Deputy Section Chief Jin was already very capable and could easily control Li Junsheng, but I never expected that he would have such a powerful backer as Director Zheng.
Now Tang Dongliang didn't dare to say anything out of line, and he completely kept a low profile.
Tang Dongliang and Deputy Section Chief Jin backed down, and Li Junsheng chatted with Zheng Rong for a while before taking Qin Yong to pick up the goods!
Although it wasted some time, Li Junsheng still managed to haul away several truckloads of scrap.
After exchanging pleasantries with Li Junsheng, Zheng Rong had other matters to attend to and was unable to personally supervise Li Junsheng's hauling of goods.
But when it was time to leave, Deputy Section Chief Jin shamelessly saw Li Junsheng off, opening the car door for him with great obsequiousness and watching him get into the car and leave!
While driving, Qin Yong couldn't help but discuss this Deputy Section Chief Jin with Li Junsheng.
"This guy really changes his tune faster than he can turn over. Look how polite Director Zheng is to you, Dad, that's why he's so attentive to you. Otherwise, he would have been so arrogant with us before!"
Li Junsheng said to Qin Yong with emotion, "People are all like this, fawning on the powerful and stepping on the weak, so we have to work hard to make money and be capable."
Qin Yong nodded emphatically; he truly felt that his father-in-law made sense.
Regardless, Li Junsheng still managed to get the scrap. As usual, Li Junsheng followed Qin Yong to the agricultural machinery factory to unload the goods!
Meanwhile, Tang Dongliang returned to his son's shop in shock and anger.
Upon seeing his father return, Tang Jie asked, "How did it go, Dad? Did Section Chief Jin agree to help us?"
"Don't even mention it. That Li Junsheng actually knows Director Zheng of the machinery factory. The two are like brothers. Deputy Section Chief Jin doesn't dare to utter a word in front of him."
"Before leaving, he even criticized me, saying that if I hadn't suspected Li Junsheng of being a scrap dealer, I wouldn't have offended him in the first place!"
In short, this incident made Deputy Section Chief Jin very unhappy.
Despite Tang Dongliang's apologies and explanations, Deputy Section Chief Jin, who was still furious, wouldn't listen.
I reckon they won't be patronizing their son's business anymore!
Upon hearing that Deputy Section Chief Jin was angry, Tang Jie immediately became nervous.
"Dad, will Deputy Section Chief Jin stop buying clothes from me from now on? That would be a huge loss for me!"
Tang Jie looked pained, and Tang Dongliang could only say perfunctorily, "Deputy Section Chief Jin is still angry. It's hard to say whether he will come again. We can only wait and see in a couple of days!"
"But this Li Junsheng is really annoying me. Does he really have no weaknesses?"
Tang Dongliang was unwilling to accept this. In order to deal with Li Junsheng, he even cut off his connection with Deputy Section Chief Jin.
At this point, Tang Dongliang was even more determined to make things difficult for Li Junsheng.
Don't bring up the idea of stopping now. Since things have already come to this, let's make Li Junsheng suffer a bit too.
Then wouldn't all the criticism I received have been for nothing?
Seeing that Tang Dongliang couldn't do anything to Li Junsheng, Tang Jie changed his approach.
"Dad, to be honest, we just don't want Tang Liang to end up with such a good family. We just want to stop Tang Liang from marrying Li Xiaoyu. There's no need to go against Li Xiaoyu's father, is there?"
"Why don't you try targeting Tang Liang? There's a girl named Cuihua in the village who's always liked him and wants to marry him. We can trick Cuihua into coming here and have her cause trouble with that Li Xiaoyu!"
After a moment's thought, Tang Jie felt that his son's suggestion was not without merit.
only……
"Cuihua is the village chief's daughter, she's not easy to fool. I'd better think of a way to find the problem with Li Xiaoyu!"
"If you ask me, there's definitely something wrong with her, otherwise why would she marry down to that guy Tang Liang?"
Tang Jie took it to heart and let his father find fault with Li Xiaoyu.
Li Junsheng was unaware that Tang Dongliang was secretly plotting something!
A few days later, he and Qin Yong helped bring back the furniture from Li Xiaoyu's new home.
With the furniture in place, all that's left is to arrange the home textiles.
Originally, it should have been handled by Li Xiaoyu's mother and Tang Liang's mother, but Li Junsheng had already divorced Ma Yulian!
Therefore, Li Chunya, Ji Xiaocui, and Lu Ping came together to help with the home textile arrangement.
