Chapter 87
While the two were talking, the door was opened from the outside with a key, and a middle-aged woman with curly hair, tall figure and decent face walked in. This woman was Lian Yijian's second sister - Lian Pandi.
Lian Pandi was holding a big bag in her hand, which contained four food boxes of Zi Yan Baiwei Chicken's Fuqi Feipian, chicken feet, braised pig's trotters and chicken, all of which were Lian Yijian's favorites.
Lian Yijian and Huang Caihua, who were sitting on the sofa, turned around at the same time. After seeing the person coming in, Lian Yijian called out "Second Sister". He stood up and took the bag from Lian Pandi, who was changing shoes at the entrance. Seeing that the bag was filled with his favorite braised dishes, he smiled and said, "Thank you, Second Sister."
"What are you thanking me for? No matter how old you are, you will always be a child in your second sister's eyes, and children are meant to be spoiled."
Yes, his second sister has always doted on him since he was a child, and she knows his preferences very well.
Lian Yijian put the bag on the dining table with a happy look on his face. He walked to the sofa. Lian Pandidi, who had already changed her shoes at the entrance, also walked to the sofa. Lian Pandidi sat on the left of Huang Caihua, and Lian Yijian sat with Xia Zhongqin.
As soon as they sat down, Lian Pandi began to say, "Dabao, you're finally free to come back. Mom has been talking about you every day these days, and my ears are almost callused from hearing you. But hard work pays off, and I finally brought you back."
"This is Qinqin, welcome to our home."
Lian Pandi greeted Xia Zhongqin enthusiastically.
"Hello, second sister." Xia Zhongqin responded politely.
"I'm busy with the project." Lian Yijian answered truthfully. "Second sister, when will Yuanyuan and her husband return from Dunhuang, Gansu?"
Yuanyuan is his second nephew. He took the college entrance examination in June this year and scored 680 points. He applied to Northwestern Polytechnical University in the north.
"Your brother-in-law left this Monday. He and his father went to Lanzhou first to meet up with your eldest nephew, Nan Nan, who was studying at a university there. The three of them went to see all the famous scenic spots in Gansu together. Dabao, I heard from Mom that you also went to Dunhuang before the epidemic."
He stayed in Dunhuang for ten days during the 2019 cadre summer camp of Beijing Wisdom Co., Ltd. It was July, the hottest month of the year. He visited the Mogao Grottoes, the ancient city of Dunhuang, the Dunhuang Museum, the Leiyin Temple, the Crescent Moon Lake in Shaming Mountain, and the Yumen Pass.
They went there during summer vacation, there were people everywhere, and the weather was hot. The overall experience was not good. It took Lian Yijian a week to recover.
Lian Yijian talked about the scenic spots he visited in Dunhuang and his impressions of it. Finally, he took out the photos of Dunhuang he had taken in his mobile phone album and showed them to Xia Zhongqin, Lian Panddi and Huang Caihua.
Huang Caihua, looking at the photos of Crescent Lake at Shaming Mountain, was surprised to see a clear spring in the desert. She said, "It's incredible. There's only desert all around, but there's a lake in this small area. And the water looks so clear."
In response to Huang Caihua's doubts, Lian Yijian explained in detail the formation of the Crescent Lake at Shaming Mountain. He also looked up these things on Baidu Encyclopedia when he was at the Crescent Lake at Shaming Mountain that year. His memory has always been good and he has never forgotten anything over the years.
The four of them talked and looked at photos, and time unknowingly came to 5:30 in the afternoon. Lian Pandi got up and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook dinner. She had to cook more dishes tonight than usual.
Lian Yijian stood up and wanted to go over to help, but was stopped by Lian Pandidi.
"Dabao, I can count the number of times you go home in a year on my five fingers. This time, you finally came back, so please spend some time with your mother. The ones coming tonight are your eldest sister, her husband, your third sister, her husband, and Kaiqun and his family of three. Rongrong from your third sister's family told me this morning that she has a training class in the evening and can't come. There's food for less than ten people, and I've already prepared the dishes in advance. I just need to stir-fry them, and I, your second sister, can handle it all by myself."
As far as Lian Yijian could remember, before his second sister got married, the housework of cooking was hers.
Lian Pandi, who was busy in the kitchen, had already put the cooked dishes on the table one by one. When there were only three dishes left, she walked to the sofa, patted Lian Yijian's shoulders twice, and said, "Dabao, you can call your eldest sister, third sister, and Kaiqun and ask them to come over for dinner."
According to the order of people mentioned by Lian Panddi, Lian Yijian called everyone except Xia Kaiqun. His eldest sister and third sister were already on the way.
Before returning to Qingpu for the holiday, Lian Yijian and Xia Kaiqun had a meal together.
It was during that meal that Lian Yijian and Xia Zhongqin learned that Xia Kaiqun had completed the divorce procedures with Guan Yan. According to the divorce agreement, the Qingpu house, child custody and bank deposits were all given to Guan Yan, and Xia Kaiqun was essentially left with nothing.
The company was on holiday for the New Year, and Xia Kaiqun did not return to Shanghai. Instead, he stayed in Liangxi to spend the New Year with Zhao Panpan.
In early April, the Suzhou Metro project completed the full launch of its system one month ahead of schedule.
After the system had been running in parallel for a month, in early June, Suzhou Metro, led by its Information Office, held a press conference.
After all, Suzhou Metro is the first subway company in the country to successfully implement a large-scale office system. As the project manager of the Suzhou Metro project, Lian Yijian reported on the construction status of the entire project.
The press conference for the full launch of the Suzhou Metro project was very successful. After being broadcast by many provincial and above media, it greatly enhanced the industry status of Beijing Smart Internet Company in office software systems.
In early July, Beijing Zhihuihuilian Hefei Branch defeated Fanwei and Lanling and successfully won the bid for the Hefei subway office project.
At the end of July, the Suzhou Metro Project completed its initial inspection.
The day after the initial inspection report was stamped, Lian Yijian and Xia Zhongqin each submitted their resignation applications in the Beijing Smart Interconnected Office System.
As the PMO of Southern Jiangsu District, Xia Zhongqin's work responsibilities were handed over to the implementation supervisors of the four regions. Her resignation application was approved very quickly, and all the handover work was completed in just one week.
Half a month had passed, and Lian Yijian's resignation application had been stuck with Wang Dayu since the day it was submitted, with no movement at all.
During this period, Wang Dayu talked to Lian Yijian many times. From the initial kind words to the final blatant threats, Lian Yijian remained unmoved.
Wang Dayu delayed Lian Yijian for a month, and finally, with the intervention of Dong Dayu, the delivery manager of the headquarters, Wang Dayu agreed to Lian Yijian's resignation application.
With Lian Yijian's departure, a major earthquake occurred in the Sucheng Delivery Department. The backbones of the Sucheng Delivery Department, represented by Liu Jijun, submitted their resignation applications one after another. Although Wang Dayu offered salary increases and promotions as conditions, he still couldn't keep them.
After leaving the Suzhou branch of Beijing Smart Internet, they joined Lian Yijian's newly opened company. In the end, Pan Lulu was the only old employee left in the Suzhou delivery department.
When Lian Yijian was about to leave, Wang Dayu had already poached a delivery director from Fanwei. He originally thought that the new delivery director could boost the delivery performance of the entire southern Jiangsu region like Lian Yijian, but in less than two months, the new delivery director quit.
Previously, several old customers in Sucheng District had already signed contracts, but because the delivery force could not keep up, they directly changed the contracts and stopped signing with the original manufacturer and instead signed with Lian Yijian's company.
National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are connected, and the total amount of leave is 8 days. Shangguan Jinliang and Liu Jijun submitted their resignations together in early September, and Liu Jijun completed the entire resignation process in less than a week.
As the operation and maintenance manager for the entire southern Jiangsu region, Shangguan Jinliang's resignation application was not completed until late September. Wang Dayu originally refused to approve it, but later Shangguan Jinliang simply resigned and stopped caring about the project, so Wang Dayu was forced to agree.
As soon as the resignation procedures were completed, Shangguan Jinliang immediately joined Lian Yijian's company and continued to be responsible for operation and maintenance work.
In just less than half a year, Lian Yijian's newly established company already has about 30 people, almost all of whom are from Beijing Smart Internet Suzhou Branch.
In the past, Beijing Smart Internet Company would not give any gifts to employees during festivals and holidays, and Beijing Smart Internet Company could only watch other companies give out gifts.
In mid-September, Xia Zhongqin discussed the company's Mid-Autumn Festival welfare plan with Lian Yijian, which included a box of Daohuaxiang mooncakes, a box of Red Fuji apples, and a shopping card worth one thousand yuan for each employee.
Lian Yijian naturally agreed with Xia Zhongqin's Mid-Autumn Festival welfare plan. When the company was first established, Xia Kaiqun also invested money and owned a 1% stake.
When he first invested in the company, Xia Kaiqun had made it clear that as long as he wanted dividends, he would not get involved in any other company matters or decision-making, leaving Lian Yijian and Xia Zhongqin to make their own decisions.
Because Zhao Panpan's family is from Liangxi, Xia Kaiqun did not resign with Lian Yijian and remained in Beijing Smart Internet Company, but he was still in charge of Lian Yijian's customer development business.
Lian Yijian originally intended to recruit Zhang Xiaoshan to help in his new company, but was rejected by Zhang Xiaoshan. The fundamental reason was that Zhang Xiaoshan was worried that Lian Yijian's new company had no security, and that Beijing Smart Internet, a listed company, had more security.
Two days before the holiday, all the benefits purchased by the company arrived. Xia Zhongqin sent a notice to receive benefits and a notice of holiday in the company group.
The group instantly exploded with comments that were almost universally praised with three thumbs up.
Since they had already asked for leave to go back home due to something at home, Xia Zhongqin directly asked for their address and then sent the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts back to them via SF Express.
On September 30, Xia Zhongqin and Lian Yijian waited in the office until nine o'clock in the evening. Only after all the gifts that could be taken away at the front desk were taken away did the two leave.
By the end of the year, the company had achieved sales of 20 million, which is not easy for a startup company.
Lian Yijian gave two months' bonus to every employee in the delivery department. Originally, their salaries at Lian Yijian were higher than those at Beijing Smart Internet Company. In addition, Lian Yijian's company not only had the transportation subsidies, meal subsidies, and phone subsidies that Smart Internet Company previously had, but also higher than those at Beijing Smart Internet Company. The company's employees were very motivated.
The employee welfare package for the Chinese New Year is 14 days of vacation plus a shopping card worth 2,000 yuan per person.
For the new company's first year-end party, Lian Yijian chose the Water Paradise Hotel next to the company. According to the custom of Beijing Smart Internet Company's agents, it was necessary to invite the general manager of the Beijing Smart Internet branch in the region, that is, Wang Dayu, to attend.
Lian Yijian called in advance, but Wang Dayu declined on the grounds that he had something to deal with.
Without Lian Yijian as the delivery leader, the delivery performance of Beijing Smart Internet Suzhou Branch was a mess at the end of the year. Many projects could not be accepted and the project-related funds could not be recovered.
Wang Dayu, who originally had one year left in his term in the Southern Jiangsu District, was transferred directly back to the headquarters to be responsible for the distribution business because of the dismal performance of the Southern Jiangsu District at the end of the year. In fact, it was a promotion in name only and a demotion in reality. He could no longer live the life of being the regional general manager for three years and earning millions in silver as before.
