On Monday, September 2nd, Feng Qifan officially started school.
Feng Haidong dropped his son off at the school gate in the morning and watched him enter the school.
Then he rode his bicycle to the factory.
He hasn't been seen at the factory for a month.
When Feng Haidong rode his bicycle into the factory gate, his coworkers who entered with him were all stunned.
"My God, it's Feng Haidong."
"Feng Haidong, you've finally shown up."
"Haidong, I heard you resigned?"
"Haidong, how much money have you made? Are you really not planning to keep your job?"
"Brother Haidong, you didn't really come back to resign this time, did you?"
"That's not right. Last time I went to your restaurant to eat shrimp, I heard you weren't there. People said you went out of town?"
"You went out of town? Haidong, did you just get back from out of town?"
"What did you go out of town for?"
Hearing his coworkers bombard him with questions, Feng Haidong was momentarily stumped and didn't know how to answer them.
Finally, surrounded by his fellow workers, Feng Haidong could only give a vague answer.
"I did ask the factory manager for a month's leave, and I did go out of town. But today my leave is over, so I'm back. Okay, everyone stop crowding around me. I'm not the factory manager. Everyone, clock in and get ready to work."
After hearing Feng Haidong's words, the workers all suddenly realized what he meant.
However, everyone was immediately dejected again.
"Work? There's no work to be done!"
"Yes, there's absolutely no work at the factory right now."
"Haidong, you don't know, I heard that we haven't received any work this month."
"I've also heard that someone else stole the order."
"Yes, I heard that too. Apparently, their quote was higher than ours, but they said our quote was too low and they were worried about the quality, so they gave the order to the factory that quoted the higher price."
These words immediately became the topic of discussion among all the workers.
Feng Haidong knew about this.
This matter was quite mysterious in the factory at the time, and many versions of it circulated.
Feng Haidong only learned the true version later from Factory Director Nian in his previous life.
At the time, the factory was eager to receive orders, so it tried to lower the price as much as possible.
Unexpectedly, the company we contacted had conducted a series of investigations into the factory beforehand.
The other party also conducted a cost calculation and ultimately felt that the factory's quote was unreasonably low.
Therefore, the company ultimately chose another factory with a slightly higher price.
The aftermath of this incident is that those who drafted the price list may soon leave the factory.
Feng Haidong had previously considered whether he should remind the factory manager.
On the one hand, he was troubled by some family matters, and on the other hand, Feng Haidong discovered that although he had been reborn, he had made a good start in his business.
But in the factory, he remained just an ordinary worker.
Now that the factory is not doing well, his artistic talents are no longer needed by the factory.
So even if he tries to remind the factory manager and other leaders, no one will listen to him in the end.
Without discussing it with his coworkers, Feng Haidong walked out of the shed and into the workshop.
After changing into his work clothes, he went to cancel his leave.
Then go find Tang Anguo.
Tang Anguo saw Feng Haidong coming to find him and walked out of the workshop with him.
"Haidong, you're finally back. Did your trip go smoothly? I wanted to ask you something. Your brother-in-law has contacted me a few times, saying he wants me to bring a team to make billboards and storefronts for his advertising company. Do you think this is a good job? The price he quoted is quite high."
Feng Haidong actually came to see Tang Anguo for this very reason.
Now, hearing Tang Anguo speak, we know that his brother-in-law, Lu Yaobin, has already contacted Tang Anguo.
Feng Haidong didn't waste any more words and said directly, "Senior Brother, given our brotherly relationship, I won't hide anything from you. You should know about the factory's efforts to snatch orders from outside, right? I think the factory might really be in trouble, so everyone needs to make plans as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Tang Anguo looked at Feng Haidong and asked, "So you mean I should take some men to do things for your brother-in-law?"
Feng Haidong shook his head and said, "No, Senior Brother, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that you should organize a group of reliable people, and then you should start preparing to do it yourself."
Tang Anguo was somewhat surprised: "Do it yourself?"
Feng Haidong nodded and said, "Yes, senior brother, your welding skills are top-notch, so if you organize a group of trustworthy apprentices to do it yourself, you will definitely be able to get jobs."
Seeing Tang Anguo's hesitant expression, Feng Haidong continued, "Moreover, even if you don't get any work for the time being, you can cooperate with my brother-in-law's company to make billboards and storefronts for him. We will definitely treat you well, and you will surely be able to get things going eventually."
After listening to Feng Haidong's words, Tang Anguo fell into deep thought, then nodded and said, "Hmm, Haidong, what you said should be right."
Feng Haidong said, "Senior Brother, don't rush to leave the factory with your men. You should stay here and take on some outside jobs. Take on the jobs from my brother-in-law's side first. If you need to go to work, just ask the factory for leave. Anyway, there's no work in the factory, so it's easy to ask for leave."
Tang Anguo said, "That's the same idea of mine, but I don't know how many people are willing to work with me."
Feng Haidong said, "Senior Brother, you must find trustworthy and hardworking people. You can't find some slackers."
