Chen Weiqiang was running out of breath, with a few people following him.
When he saw clearly who was the leader, Zhou Yi's sarcastic words got stuck in his throat.
"This, this, how is this possible......"
He murmured softly, and others might not have heard it clearly, but Director Gong who was sitting next to him heard it clearly.
Director Gong couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He straightened his clothes and strode towards the door.
"Oh, Comrade Xiao Lu, you've worked so hard on this mission..."
Lu Zhiye's face was full of fatigue, and he was not pretending. Even with the blessing of the spiritual spring water, he did not get enough sleep and his spirit was exhausted, which was visible to the naked eye.
"Director Gong, I have accomplished my mission!!"
Director Gong was ecstatic, but at the same time, he felt a bit of admiration for the young comrade in front of him.
Although he had already talked to the people in the fleet, these drivers were not so easy to control.
Lu Zhiye is quite capable as he was able to bring all these people back safely.
Director Gong pulled Lu Zhiye into the house and said to several county leaders with a smile: "This is Comrade Lu Zhiye, who works as a salesperson and driver in the factory."
Qiu Rui nodded and looked Lu Zhiye up and down.
He said in a deep voice: “Director Gong, since the person you understand has arrived, this temporary discussion can be officially put on the agenda.
Do you two have any opinions?"
Director Gong did not answer immediately, but looked at Zhou Yi silently.
Zhou Yi lowered his eyes and thought for a long time before he said, "Our meeting has been quite long. Why don't we take a break and discuss it again in half an hour."
Everyone understood what he meant. Qiu Rui slowly leaned back in his chair and put down the paper in his hand: "Okay, let's take a break. Regarding this matter, everyone can also actively express their opinions."
Zhou Yi walked out in a hurry. He didn't care about anything else at this moment. He just picked up the cannery's phone and dialed it.
Not long after, a steady male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello......!"
"Cousin, are you busy now? Is Comrade Zhou Hui in the office?"
The man raised his eyelids quietly, and Zhou Hui, who was not far away, signaled him to turn on the speakerphone.
"If you have anything to say, please tell me. I will pass it on to Comrade Zhou Hui later."
"Hey, brother, this matter is extremely urgent, please help me find it quickly."
The man rubbed his eyebrows helplessly. He used to think his cousin was quite smart, but why did he look so stupid now?
"I told you, just say whatever you want to say."
The man emphasized it deliberately and said a few words directly.
When Zhou Yi heard his cold voice, he suddenly became sober. He was also overwhelmed by anxiety before.
Understanding what his cousin meant, Zhou Yi quickly said, "Something went wrong at the cannery, and they brought back a lot of stuff.
Now the county leaders have proposed that we officially begin the competition between Director Gong and me.
What do you think we should do about this matter?"
The man looked at Zhou Hui with an inquiring look. Zhou Hui's fingers kept tapping on the table. The crisp sound was transmitted along the telephone line to Zhou Yi's ears.
It was like a series of small hammers hitting his uneasy heart.
After a long time, Zhou Hui nodded slightly.
The man understood and said in a deep voice: "Agree to it, this matter will be beneficial to us and will not cause any harm.
The purchase orders have been received. As for Director Gong, he has only received this batch of goods, and the canned goods have not been made yet, and the purchase orders are nowhere in sight."
Zhou Yi suddenly realized something and smiled: "Yes, why didn't I think of this!"
After hanging up the phone, he walked out in a very arrogant manner. Director Gong, who was smoking in the yard, saw him walking towards him in a swagger, snorted coldly and turned his head away.
Zhou Yi, who was about to step into the office, retracted his foot and said, "Director Gong, what's the point of bringing back so many goods?
If I ever become the director of a cannery, I will have to sell all these cans at a loss.
Instead of making canned pears, they have to make something strange.
Be careful or you may end up losing money. If this batch of canned food doesn’t sell well, your superiors may hold you responsible.
Alas, unlike my side, the canned goods have not yet arrived, but the purchase order has been firmly handed over to me, and I cannot let them down. "
At this moment, there were only two of them in the yard, or rather, Zhou Yi didn't take Lu Zhiye seriously at all.
So he became more reckless in his speech.
Director Gong was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He said angrily: "Just take care of yourself!"
Zhou Yi flicked off the non-existent dust on himself and said, "I wonder if Director Gong dares to compete with me today?"
"Humph, what am I afraid of?"
"Then let's compete later?"
Zhou Yi got a positive answer and grinned like a mouse that had stolen some fish.
Looking at his receding back, Director Gong also restrained his expression and spat in his direction: "Do you really think you are some powerful thing?"
Lu Zhiye took out some more purchase orders from his pocket and handed them over: "Director Gong, this is the cooperation I discussed on the way here."
Director Gong was overjoyed, and he patted Lu Zhiye's shoulders with his palm as big as a palm fan, making a rustling sound.
"well!"
Originally, the purchase orders in their hands were enough to suppress Zhou Yi by tens of thousands of kilograms, but with Lu Zhiye's purchase orders, they were sure to win.
"Thank you for your hard work along the way."
Lu Zhiye shook his head: “The drivers have been running for many days, the backyard is full, and there are still many cars parked outside.
What do you think we should do with these?”
Director Gong stroked his chin and thought for a while: "How about this, you go find a group of people to unload the goods into the cellar warehouse first.
Then I will take these drivers to have a good rest, and I will pay for their meals."
Lu Zhiye: “OK!”
It happened that someone in the room called out "Director Gong" at this moment, and he waved to Lu Zhiye and strode into the room.
In this impoverished era, although material things are scarce, the wisdom of the working people is limitless.
The weather was hot and the fruit was difficult to store, so Director Gong directed people to dig cellars to store ice.
The well-organized layout of a cellar and an ice cellar greatly extends the storage time of the fruit.
Lu Zhiye directly called Lu Yong over and arranged for him to find some men nearby.
"Two dollars per person for loading and unloading, and two meals. Just tell them this and it'll be fine."
Lu Yong was delighted: "Okay, it just so happens that many men in our village are free, I'll go look for them."
Having just finished a round of autumn harvest, the villagers have shed their skin and almost all the men are resting at home.
