Chapter 1549 The greater the ability, the more enemies one has.
The fact that Li Ye had done something "real" for Shan Shengwen quickly spread throughout the Jingnan Group.
Then Shan Shengwen was called over by Shang Bin.
As soon as Shan Shengwen entered Shang Bin's office, he saw that the other party had a dark face, clearly in a bad mood.
However, Shan Shengwen was already mentally prepared when he accepted Li Ye's kindness, so he wasn't nervous at all at this moment. He was even looking forward to seeing what Shang Bin's opinion would be on this matter.
Shang Bin was even angrier when he saw that Shan Shengwen acted as if nothing had happened.
[You, Shan Shengwen, are from Southwest Heavy Truck. Shouldn't you be following my lead after coming to Beijing? How can such a major matter as the transfer of family members be handled without my permission?]
So Shang Bin spoke with a fierce tone: "Director Shan, I heard you're transferring your wife and children to work in Beijing? You've got quite the ability, haven't you?"
"Among the brothers who came to Beijing from the Southwest, there are at least eighty or a hundred, and not one of them has managed to transfer their wives and children to Beijing. What kind of magic tricks did you, Director Shan, pull?"
Are you feigning ignorance? If we don't follow Li Ye's path, are we supposed to follow yours?
Dan Shengwen felt contempt in his heart, but on his face he said with trepidation, "Secretary Shang, I didn't go through anyone's channels!"
That was the day you asked me to go see Deputy General Manager Li to discuss the office building project. He asked about my family situation and then said there were a few openings available, asking if my wife and children would be willing to come to Beijing.
"Of course I'd say yes! I'd be all alone in Beijing. Being with my wife and kids would make it easier for me to focus on my work."
Shang Bin smiled.
"Focus on your work? Director Shan, you never know what will happen with work. You were in the Southwest just a few days ago, and now you're in Beijing. Who knows, you might be working somewhere else in a few days."
[You think you can stay in Beijing for long? You've offended me and you still want to stay? I'll find an excuse to send you all the way back to the southwest.]
However, after hearing Shang Bin's words, Shan Shengwen's feigned fear and trepidation vanished.
"Secretary Shang, I don't know if what I did was right or wrong, but I think anyone would have agreed to this, right?"
"My family and children come to Beijing to work and live. This doesn't affect other people's interests, and it certainly doesn't affect my work!"
Even if I'm transferred back to the southwest tomorrow, my son and grandson can still stay in Beijing, right? At worst, I can come and reunite with them after I retire.
Shang Bin could no longer laugh.
He wasn't stupid; of course he could see that Shan Shengwen was determined to have his family settle down in Beijing. Even if Shan Shengwen were transferred to another city tomorrow, he wouldn't be scared into giving up his plan.
Come to think of it, who would refuse a job opportunity in Beijing these days? If this opportunity were given to Shang Bin, would he refuse it?
Shang Bin's wife has gone abroad, but he still has sisters, brothers, and a sister-in-law. If he could be assigned to the No. 1 factory and get a Beijing hukou (household registration), wouldn't he agree to it?
So Shang Bin is angry right now for two reasons. First, Shan Shengwen has accepted Li Ye's kindness in private and may be at risk of "betraying" him. Second, even Shang Bin himself has not had such a good thing happen to him, so why should it be Shan Shengwen's turn?
Shouldn't Shang Bin be the first to receive good news from his workplace?
Shang Bin took a few deep breaths, suppressing his jealousy and hatred, and then advised Shan Shengwen: "Old Shan, you've just arrived in the capital and don't understand many things, so don't easily accept other people's kindness."
Li Ye is no saint. If you don't believe me, you can go to the light automobile company and ask around. He's done a lot of things over the years; he's sent more than a dozen people to prison.
"You're beholden to someone who gives you money, and you're dependent on them for food. If you put your wife and children under their control today, won't you be at their mercy in the future?"
Shan Shengwen was stunned.
He was stunned not because he was afraid he might be controlled by others, but because he was completely taken aback by Shang Bin's shamelessness.
"He who eats another's food is bound to him; he who takes another's money is bound to him. How much have you, Shang Bin, eaten and taken over the years? Why haven't you become any less demanding? Why haven't you developed rickets?"
Shan Shengwen sighed and said, "Secretary Shang, do you mean I shouldn't have let Li Ye help me with my wife and children's residency and employment?"
Shang Bin said calmly, "I've already explained the pros and cons to you. Do I need to say more about whether you should accept it or not?"
Shan Shengwen nodded and said, "I understand. Well then, I'll decline Li Ye's offer, and I'll leave the matter of my wife and child's job transfer to you, Secretary Shang."
Shang Bin: "."
Now it was Shang Bin's turn to be dumbfounded. Was Shan Shengwen trying to pin this on him?
"I told you not to accept Li Ye's offer, and you want me to transfer your wife and kids to jobs? If I had that kind of ability, all my relatives would have been transferred to Beijing long ago, okay?"
Shang Bin stared into Shan Shengwen's eyes, as if he could see the mockery deep in the other's eyes.
[Blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing their parents; blocking someone's future is like cutting off their limbs. You don't even have the ability yourself, so how dare you block my wife and children's future?]
"Alright, then go back and wait for news!"
Shang Bin didn't want to waste any more time talking to Shan Shengwen. Shan Shengwen was a notorious and stubborn guy in the Southwest, and arguing with him now would be a waste of time.
After Shan Shengwen left, Shang Bin immediately called the human resources department of Southwest Heavy Truck: "Hello, this is Shang Bin, I'm looking for Lao Zheng."
"Hey, it's me, Lao Zheng. Secretary Shang, what are your instructions?"
"I'll tell you what to do, and you'll remember it," Shang Bin said sternly. "None of Shan Shengwen's family members and children are allowed to be transferred out of Southwest Heavy Truck. Do you understand?"
After a long silence on the other end of the phone, Old Zheng said with a sour tone, "Secretary Shang, this matter isn't up to me!"
Shang Bin said angrily, "You're the department head, how can your word not count?"
Old Zheng said aggrievedly, "Dong Shan held a meeting yesterday and removed me from my position. Now it's the people from Beijing who call the shots."
【Holy crap~】
Shang Bin almost smashed the phone.
He never expected Dong Shan to be so fast and so ruthless.
Shang Bin gritted his teeth in anger, paced around the office twice, and then revealed a sly smile.
"Since you enjoy giving people benefits so much, then give them more!"
Shang Bin then called Weng Keming and some other people who had been transferred from Southwest Heavy Truck to work at the headquarters of Jingnan Group, and secretly gave them confidential information.
After thinking for a moment, he dialed Dong Shan's number again.
"Hello, Mr. Dong. Hehe, it's nothing, nothing at all. I just wanted to ask about Shan Shengwen's family and children."
Yes, yes, Li Ye should handle the transfer for him. I don't think it's appropriate to transfer so many people at once. It can't be that when one person achieves success, all their relatives and friends benefit.
Hehe, the more capable you are, the more enemies you'll make. Enjoy your time!
