"Okay, Brother Xu, I know what happened. You go back and tell your cousin that he should go there. He is a senior official of the country. How can he not obey the instructions? When will the new factory director come? Whose man will he be?" Zhang Dabao really doesn't like this kind of infighting. Now is a difficult time for the country. Wouldn't it be better for you to have some time to improve production and operation?

"If nothing unexpected happens, he will arrive tomorrow. There will be a meeting of all the middle-level cadres in the factory at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. The appointment of the new factory director should be announced at the meeting. The new factory director is Vice Minister Wang's man, and I heard that he is Vice Minister Wang's former secretary," said Xu Sinian.

"Brother Xu, I understand. We are all family, and I'll remember the favor." Zhang Dabao asked Xu Sinian to take him to Hongxing Street, and he returned to Compound No. 95 alone.

The house was very clean, and someone must have cleaned it every day. According to the date, Qin Huairu should have given birth. Zhang Dabao took some milk powder, pig's feet, spare ribs and other things to the Jia family next door.

"Seventh Uncle" Qin Jingru saw that it was Zhang Dabao who came in and quickly greeted him.

When Qin Huairu heard Qin Jingru's voice, she knew that Zhang Dabao had returned and her eyes turned red.

"It's a daughter? She's so beautiful," said Zhang Dabao, looking at Huaihua who was sleeping soundly.

Qin Jingru went out, and Qin Huairu's tears that she had been holding back flowed down, "You don't mind?"

"Of course I don't mind. Who doesn't like a daughter? Look how cute she is. Take good care of yourself during the confinement period and don't let your mind run wild," Zhang Dabao comforted Qin Huairu.

The two talked for a while, and then Zhang Dabao left.

Chapter 377 Arrangement

After leaving No. 95 Courtyard, Zhang Dabiao came to the Municipal Post Office and called Huabang Trading. "Xinsheng, it's me. Regarding the domestic steel, you will inform them at a.m. tomorrow that we don't want the goods. Find a reason, the quality doesn't meet the standards, we don't want any of them. New orders? No new orders. All old orders are in breach of contract. File a lawsuit against the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill for substandard quality. Protest to the domestic foreign affairs department. The reason is still substandard product quality. Demand compensation."

"Not today, but tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. You contact Hu Yongjia. He has professional lawyers who are very professional in doing these things. Yes, you must use harsh words and don't save face. Director Li? Why are you considering Director Li? Director Li has been transferred," said Zhang Dabao.

Huang Xinsheng in Hong Kong also understood that Director Li was Da Biao's cousin and he had been transferred. It seemed that Da Biao was unhappy, so he immediately contacted Hu Yongjia and asked the lawyer to start preparing for this matter.

People in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill are in a state of unrest right now, because no one understands this personnel change, and there was no transition. It was just an administrative order. The reason why the news spread throughout the factory should be that someone with ulterior motives leaked it in advance.

"Sister Hua, Director Li is gone, what should we do?" Qian Ying and Liu Mei and a few others also discussed the matter together.

"Director Li was promoted, not made any mistakes. What's there to be afraid of? Doesn't any director have to employ people to do work? If the new director doesn't need us, can he fire us? It shouldn't be a problem for Director Li to transfer us to other units. My brother Da Biao will be back soon, and he has more connections. You can rest assured." Zhang Cuihua's attitude was firm, which gave everyone reassurance.

"Sister Hua, a few young men just came to the factory, saying some indecent things." At this time, Meng Wutong also came in.

"What are you talking about?" Zhang Cuihua asked.

"He said that his brother would soon be the factory director, and asked me to work with him and transfer me to the office. If I didn't agree, he would fire me," said Meng Wutong.

"So arrogant? It seems that they are deliberately targeting us. It's not that easy to deal with us. Wutong, you hide here with us today. We will contact Lao Chen and the others later and think of a way to teach him a lesson tomorrow. If something goes wrong, you will blame me and say that I ordered them to do it. Director Li and I are relatives. No matter what I do, they will target me." Zhang Cuihua's position is very firm. She has great confidence in Li Huaide, especially her younger brother Zhang Dabao.

"Sinian, have you met Dabiao?" At this time, Xu Sinian had already arrived in Li Huaide's office.

"I saw him. He said that if someone asked you to go there, you should go. You are a senior cadre and you cannot disobey the organization's arrangements. He should also take some action," said Xu Sinian.

"Don't underestimate Dabiao because he is young. I have never seen through him. My cousin's husband, my father-in-law, Minister Tang, and Deputy Minister Shi, a minister and three deputy ministers, are all helpless in this matter. It's because he has a bigger backer, and I accept that, but I just can't accept it. The new equipment was brought by Zhang Dabiao, and now it has become their credit. It's outrageous," Li Huaide said angrily.

"Director, Dabiao's two nephews and one younger brother are still in the probation period. There are also many people from his hometown working in the factory," said Xu Sinian.

"Let Wang Cheng convert the three people in the probation period to regular employees, pay off the wages of all the people in Zhangjia Village, and let them go home first. I did all these things, but they wouldn't give me face when they came. Let them go today and send them back in the factory car. Give Da Biao enough face, send the aid food over together, explain to Zhang Zhiling, and say that I have stepped down," said Li Huaide.

"Okay," Xu Sinian responded and went out, then found Wang Cheng and Liu Le, completed the regularization procedures for Zhang Dazheng, Zhang Shouan and Zhang Shouying, settled the accounts with Zhang Daliu and others, and sent them back to Zhangjia Village together with the aid food by truck.

At noon, Zhang Dabao returned to the yard from outside. Besides not wanting to sleep, he was thinking about how to solve this problem. In fact, physical elimination is the best way, but this method cannot be used lightly. After using it, people will not want evidence. Now is the era of free conviction. Suspicion is enough. He is not afraid, but if he does this, how can he survive in the country?

This method cannot be used unless it is a last resort. If nothing works, we can use the old method, frame someone. No matter who the new factory manager is, there will definitely be no foreign trade orders; and he must be a spy, and there is a lot of evidence to prove that he is a spy.

Zhang Dabiao felt relieved after thinking of a solution. He had never thought that Li Huaide would be transferred. He had been the factory director until the reform and opening up. Now he was not yet the factory director. He wanted to push him up, but he took a big step and got hurt.

"Seventh Uncle, you're back?" Jia Dongxu pushed the door open.

"Why are you here so early today?" Zhang Dabao asked Jia Dongxu.

"Finish work early and come back early. What are you doing at the company? It's so cold. Uncle Qi, you bought so many pig's trotters. Shall we have braised pig's trotters tonight?" Jia Dongxu asked.

"Pig's trotters are for Huairu to produce milk. Can you produce milk?" Zhang Dabao didn't expect that his nephew's second sentence would be to arrange the dishes for dinner.

"There are so many, she can't finish them. People say that drinking pig's trotter soup is good for milk production during confinement, but they don't say to eat pig's trotters," Jia Dongxu said with a smile.

"You are the most greedy. I have a few more in the kitchen. Use these. Let Huairu eat the ones from your home. There are also some frozen fish and other things. You can deal with them," said Zhang Dabao.

"There's also frozen fish?" After hearing this, Jia Dongxu turned around and left Zhang Dabao's room and came to the kitchen. "This is hairtail, this is shrimp, what is this? How do I eat it?" Jia Dongxu ran back again.

"Dongxu, I really admire you. These are fish and eels. Let's stew them in sauce. Don't braise the pig's feet. Put some soybeans in to make soup. Make it early so you can eat it when your mother and others come back," said Zhang Dabao.

"Okay" Jia Dongxu now particularly likes cooking, because cooking makes him happy.

People who were leaving school came back earlier. When Jia Geng smelled the smell of fish in the yard, he said to Niu Xiaozheng and Yan Jiedi, "My seventh uncle is back. Do you believe it?"

"Of course we believe it. His motorcycle has been moved, and we are not blind. If Brother Da Biao didn't come back, could your father cook fish? Would your grandmother forgive him? You can tell by the smell that a lot of oil was used." Yan Jiedi said.

"Aunt Si Ni, you are so smart." Bang Geng admired Yan Jiedi's observation skills.

"I'm smart in many ways, but how much do you know? Go and feed the geese. It's getting cold and they can only eat but can't lay eggs. It's really annoying," Yan Jiedi said dissatisfiedly.

Chapter 3878: Setting a Trap

"Dabao, you're back." Zhang Cuihua returned to the yard. She didn't even go to see her favorite granddaughter, but came to Zhang Dabao's room first.

"What's wrong? Are you worried that others will treat you badly after your cousin leaves?" Zhang Dabao knew what Zhang Cuihua was thinking when she saw her expression.

"They must be treating me badly, there's no need to think about it. I wonder if I should change my unit?" said Zhang Cuihua.

"Are you scared? Zhang Cuihua, are you ever scared? You've been roaming around Hongxing Street for all these years, where's your courage?" Zhang Dabao laughed.

"Da Biao, the factory is different from the street." Zhang Cuihua felt a little embarrassed by what Zhang Da Biao said.

"Not for now. Those who come may not be able to continue working, and those who leave may not come back. Do you understand what I mean?" Zhang Dabao asked his elder sister.

"I knew you had a backup plan. Didn't I tell you? My cousin's father-in-law is a high-ranking official, and my uncle-in-law is also a high-ranking official. How could there be no solution?" Zhang Cuihua laughed after hearing what Zhang Dabao said.

"Don't tell anyone, we do have a backup plan. Just keep everything the same in the factory as before, we don't have to be afraid of anyone." When Zhang Dabao said this, his face darkened and he slammed the table heavily.

"I'm not afraid of anyone. What can they do to me? I have been a housewife all my life. Now Dongxu and Huairu both have jobs. I have grandchildren. I do nothing now and no one laughs at me." Zhang Cuihua is quite open-minded.

"Sister, you also have some sisters. None of us can retreat or give in. Sometimes, if you give in, others may think that you are afraid and you want to please them," said Zhang Dabao.

"Da Biao, the new factory director's younger brother, who is about sixteen or seventeen years old, is called Wang Peng. He harassed Meng Wutong today and threatened her, saying that Wutong should follow him. If Meng Wutong doesn't agree, he will fire her. He will go to the workshop to find her tomorrow morning," said Zhang Cuihua.

"Wang Peng?" Zhang Dabao thought of a person in his mind, the youngest son of Vice Minister Wang. He had a connection with him, but he didn't expect to meet him again today.

"Do you know him?" Zhang Cuihua asked.

"He should know him. Is his behavior like a hooligan? What's your plan? Set a trap for him tomorrow and make the matter bigger. The bigger the better. I'll go find Uncle Xing later," said Zhang Dabao.

"I understand." Zhang Cuihua is also a person with strong execution ability. Zhang Dabao gives her the confidence, so she can carry it out.

Today Zhang Dabao came back and set up two large tables in the backyard of No. 95 Courtyard. Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangfu, Xu Damao and He Yuzhu also came and had a drink together.

"Guangtian, are you really together with Chen Hong? Who introduced you to each other?" He Yuzhu asked.

"Aunt Jia introduced her to me, and I found Chen Hong is a nice girl. She doesn't mind that my family is poor," said Liu Guang.

"She doesn't mind that you are poor, so you don't mind that he is ugly. What kind of thinking is this? It's really hard to understand," said Jia Dongxu.

"Chen Hong? I really don't know her. Is she also from our factory? Let's meet her when we have time. Now that the matter has been settled, we should hurry up and get married. Is the other party of age enough?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"You're already 25, why haven't you arrived yet? Your daughter is five years older than you, and she looks like an old mother. Do you really want to find a mother for her in broad daylight? And you're ugly, uglier than that person." Jia Dongxu was about to say something, but then he thought of the beating he received a few days ago, and swallowed the words back.

"Can you fucking speak?" Zhang Dabao happened to be next to Jia Dongxu and slapped him twice on the shoulder.

"Beat this bastard hard, beat him to death," Zhang Cuihua said angrily.

Zhang Dabiao laughed angrily, "Big sister, I found that Dongxu has not learned even a little bit of Master Yi's speaking skills. Didn't you and Jia Youfu beat him when he was a child? He is easy to be beaten by others if he talks like this now, don't you know that?"

After Jia Dongxu finished speaking, Liu Guangtian felt a little embarrassed, "Brother Dongxu is telling the truth. Chen Hong is indeed not very beautiful, but I like her very much. She doesn't talk much either, but I'm used to it."

Jia Dongxu was not angry after being beaten, as if he deserved to be beaten. Zhang Dabao was helpless about his shameless behavior. He couldn't just beat him to death, right?

After dinner, Zhang Dabao divided the gifts he had brought, spent some time with Yu Shui, then went out to find Xing Baoguo’s home, said a few words, and returned to Yard 95.

The Red Star Steel Mill was particularly busy today. Deputy Minister Wang, who is in charge of personnel affairs of the Ministry of Machinery Industry, came to the steel mill. At nine o'clock in the morning, a meeting of middle-level cadres in the factory was held. At the meeting, Deputy Minister Wang highly praised Li Huaide's contribution to steel rolling, expressed his expectation for him to take up a new job, and hoped that he would continue to work hard and make new achievements.

Li Huaide reviewed his work at the steel rolling mill over the past ten years and his deep affection for the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. He expressed his firm obedience to the organization's arrangements and hoped that the cadres and employees of the factory would cooperate well with the work of the new director.

The new factory director Li Feiyue also gave a passionate speech, expressing his determination to make the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill bigger and stronger, create greater glories, earn foreign exchange for the country, and bring honor to the ministry.

After the meeting, Li Huaide declined the farewell banquet, saying that he would go home to rest for two days, wait for notification from the ministry, and then take up his post at the Metallurgical Bureau.

Li Huaide left, and Wang Cheng became the deputy organization leader. The new factory director Li Feiyue, the first deputy factory director Shi Xincai, deputy factory director Liu Le, and the chairman of the trade union Xu Sinian held the first team meeting, and Deputy Minister Wang attended the meeting.

Wang Peng came to the Red Star Steel Mill again today with his two younger brothers. He had checked Meng Wutong's background, so he was very confident in himself. The son of a vice-ministerial leader and the younger brother of the new factory director wanted to play with a piece of trash like you. What right do you have to refuse?

"What have you thought about it?" Wang Peng really likes women like Meng Wutong, who is tall and slim, with a fair face and double eyelids. Her big watery eyes seem to be able to speak.

"Wang Peng, right? This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the small warehouse and talk. There's no one there," said Meng Wutong.

"There's no one there? I just like secluded places." Wang Peng laughed, then followed Meng Wutong to the small warehouse in the workshop and asked his two younger brothers to wait at the factory gate.

Meng Wutong entered the small warehouse, turned around and smiled at Wang Peng, then took off his cotton jacket.

When Wang Peng saw that others were so proactive, he quickly turned around to close the door and took off his cotton jacket. When he was halfway through taking off his pants, Meng Wutong started shouting "Help, help!" while tearing his upper clothes.

"What the hell are you yelling about?" Wang Peng started cursing, thinking to himself, this bitch dared to play tricks on me, just wait and see how I'm going to deal with you.

"What's going on?" Five or six women came in. Meng Wutong hurried over and started talking in tears.

Chapter 379: Catching the Rogue

"How dare an outsider act like a hooligan in the factory and bully women? Watch this!" A fat woman gave an order, and several women threw Wang Peng to the ground and controlled his body. The fat woman took off all of Wang Peng's clothes.

"Turn it over to the security department," said another woman.

Then several women escorted Wang Peng out of the workshop warehouse. A thin woman took a gong and banged it as she walked, attracting workers from various workshops to come out and watch.

"This is the hooligan who came to our factory to bully women. Come and see at home," the thin woman explained to everyone as she walked.

Wang Peng was confused at this time. He had also been on the streets before, so he knew that he had been set up. Now he was naked, cold and embarrassed. He desperately hoped that his two younger brothers would show up.

The two younger brothers were waiting for their brother Peng to come back at the south gate of the Red Star Steel Mill, but they heard the sound of a gong and then saw Wang Peng, who was completely naked.

"Let go, do you know who he is?" said a younger brother.

"No matter who commits hooliganism, it is a crime. Are you an accomplice?" The security team members stopped him and then took the two men under control.

"Interrogate the hooligan," Xing Baoguo said to the security team members.
