Chapter 88 Chapter 88 Xia Li just opened the door and entered the house...
As soon as Xia Li opened the door and walked into the house, Grandma Zhong and her granddaughter entered the alley.
She came back with some delicious food today, so as soon as she entered the yard, she shouted, "Jiang Zai, come out quickly, Mommy is back with some delicious food!"
Jiangzai was a good boy. When he heard his mother calling, he ran out quickly without knowing what he was doing.
Seeing his mother hold up something to show him, he exclaimed, "Wow!", his eyes filled with surprise. Charlie knew her son was a little angel, always showing off his demeanor. What mother wouldn't be delighted?
I'll bring it to him next time.
"Mom, is this Chinese sausage?" Jiangzai was no stranger to Chinese sausage, as his aunt often made it for him. He couldn't mistake the round, long shape of this one.
"It's different. Take it and eat it with me." Xia Li handed him the bag and then tapped his little nose lightly.
This caused Jiangzai to wrinkle his nose slightly.
Charlie smiled and went back into the house first.
She said hello to her aunt, packed her pajamas and went to wash up.
She took a quick shower and only found out her child was not at home when she came out.
It seemed that my aunt was not in the house either. I went out and found her standing at the door.
What is this about?
After a while, I found out that Jiang Zai took some food to deliver to Awan from the neighboring Zhong family. Grandma Zhong would sometimes bring Awan over to give Jiang Zai some delicious food. Now that Jiang Zai had eaten such delicious food brought back by his mother, he generously thought of sharing it with Sister Awan.
Charlie also thought it was quite fun.
The water problem in the factory has not been solved until now, and the dormitory workers even made a scene in front of Wen Ying's office.
Xia Li led Zhao Weixin and Wang Yiling to block the front of the office. They stretched out their hands to block those who wanted to break into the factory director's office.
"I said, the factory director is really not in the office now. It's useless even if you really go in." Xia Li shouted loudly. How could such a thing happen?
The whole building was a mess and noisy.
Men and women gathered together at this moment, as if they were not afraid of anything. They were all talking about water use, and they had all kinds of demands. Xia Li was really overwhelmed.
Some people, eager to see the excitement, insisted on entering the office to ask the factory director what to do. The first to barge in were some of the factory's troublemakers. Their actions weren't out of the ordinary, but they were certainly quite arrogant. Xia Li knew them; they were all well-known figures in the factory.
They were all strong men, and Xia Li and the others who sat in the office all day couldn't really stop them. However, Xia Li felt that these people probably didn't really want to do this, they were just shouting excitedly.
"Everyone, please go sit in the office next door and take a break. We'll pour some water for everyone. The factory director is really not here right now. If you don't believe me, just ask the security guard at the door and you'll know. In other words, even if he really is here, there's no point in forcing his way in! Everyone knows how Factory Director Wen behaves, and he's been trying to find a way to help everyone solve this problem lately."
"You say it's been resolved, but how long has it been going on? If you guys who work in offices have the guts, why don't you stay in the staff dormitory for a few days and see if it's any trouble!" Someone among the people pushing and shoving said this, and their tone was full of dissatisfaction.
Xia Li didn't know who led people here. If there was no one to guide her, her name would be read backwards from today on.
"Zhou Qiang, look at how well you perform at work. Based on your skills and craftsmanship, you're considered a leader. Director Wen has even asked about your situation privately several times. He thinks you're very important. You can't mess around!"
This guy was the most troublesome of the troublemakers in the factory. His personality was hard to describe, but he never made mistakes at work, and even performed better than the others. However, because he was so unruly, he was passed over for several promotions and salary increases. Zhou Qiang probably didn't care and continued to do his own thing outside of work.
Xia Li felt that this guy probably had someone behind him, otherwise he would have been fired long ago. He had a group of followers in the factory, and they treated each other like brothers. They would usually go out for dinner and drinks after work.
Zhou Qiang is a person who likes to watch the fun and no matter how big the event, it is not surprising that he appears here at this moment.
He had met the newly appointed factory director's secretary before. A beautiful woman would quickly become famous wherever she went. People had discussed her privately, wondering if she had a partner and how old she was.
He had never spoken to the director's secretary, having only met her a few times. He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow when he heard her know his name, and even made a gesture to stop the person next to him.
The people next to him were his brothers. They all had a tacit understanding that they were just here to join in the fun and cause trouble. Only a fool would break into the factory director's office!
"The factory director values me so much? He has asked about my situation several times?" There was suspicion in his eyes.
It's no wonder he doesn't believe it. Zhou Qiang himself feels that his personality is not liked by his superiors. Who would like a disobedient subordinate? If he is not satisfied with any of his superiors' words, he will stab them.
Will the new factory director take a liking to him now?
The factory director's secretary must be laughing at him!
The more Zhou Qiang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. He thought that the factory director's secretary was really cunning. The lies she told were even more terrible than his own, and she didn't even write down her lies.
He sneered and was about to say something to someone when he heard a commotion in the corridor.
"Everyone, move aside! Director Wen is back!"
When Wen Ying returned from outside and heard about what had happened, she immediately rushed back to the office building and then visited the dormitories herself. The employees were truly inconvenienced. They were already exhausted after a long day's work, and now they had to run up and down the halls, squeezing with other people to get water. After such a long time, it was inevitable that everyone would complain.
As Xia Li followed Wen Ying to check on the situation, the noise of everyone's reactions and complaints was so deafening that it hurt her ears. She almost lost her composure, but Wen Ying truly acted like a leader. She wasn't impatient at all, but instead listened attentively to everyone's words.
This sincerity was truly touching. Xia Li clearly felt that Director Wen truly cared about everyone and wanted to help solve the problem. Finally, Wen Ying promised to completely resolve everyone's water problem within two weeks, and the result was a warm cheer.
Charlie didn't know how happy the others were, she only knew that things were going to be difficult.
She followed Wen Ying down the stairs of the staff dormitory building. Before leaving, she turned her head to look back, her eyes full of heaviness, and then trotted to Wen Ying's side.
Wen Ying wasn't feeling relieved either. She heard Xia Li's footsteps approaching, but she didn't stop or look back. "Do you think I'm too impulsive to set such a hasty time?"
Xia Li did feel that time was a bit tight. If this problem was easy to solve, Director Cao from the logistics department would not have left it unresolved despite her urging him several times.
Of course, this does not rule out the possibility of different factions within the factory, but as far as the water use problem of the employee dormitory building itself is concerned, it is a historical problem and is difficult to solve.
It seems that there was a water problem in the dormitory building before Wen Ying came to this factory. Later, no one knew how the problem was solved, but it was obviously not completely fixed, so now the problem has appeared again.
She'd tried to solve the problem before but hadn't, and now Wen Ying said she'd completely resolve it within a month. Xia Li was worried about her. This promise was made in public, bearing so many eyes and expectations. If the problem wasn't resolved within the agreed timeframe, Xia Li was worried Wen Ying's position as factory director would be threatened.
"Director, I'm afraid it's really difficult to do it in such a short time! Do you have any rules in mind?" Xia Li asked directly.
Wen Ying smiled bitterly and shook her head. "There's no such thing as a rule. If we don't give everyone a deadline, I'm afraid this matter won't end so well. Time is very tight, so we have to work hard! Xia Li, I need you to work overtime with me."
What else could Charlie do? She had to sacrifice her life for the gentleman.
After returning to the office and closing the door, Xia Li and Wen Ying discussed what had happened in detail.
"Director, the incident that ended up in front of your office today was definitely instigated by someone. Those people don't want you to be well!" Many of the factory's leaders are men. Wen Ying, a woman, has taken the top job. Despite her advanced education and proven track record, many are unconvinced. They feel it's shameful to obey a woman and don't believe she can lead the factory forward. Especially now, the factory is plagued by internal problems. The workers may not be fully aware of them, but the leadership certainly knows. Orders are becoming increasingly difficult to fill. If a manufacturing factory produces goods but can't sell them, then all its efforts are in vain!
As the factory manager, Wen Ying is extremely busy and overwhelmed. She is also facing difficulties both internally and externally.
Wen Ying also knew what Xia Li said, and she nodded.
"I've always known that some people are dissatisfied with me. As long as they can think about the factory and work hard, that's fine. The most urgent task now is to solve the employees' water supply problem, otherwise I'm really worried about everyone."
Charlie nodded. This was indeed a top priority.
