Siheyuan: I am the seventh uncle of Banggen - Page 168
"Chief, they refuse to explain and say they were wrongly accused," a team member came out and said.
"Will you admit to killing someone? Now we have both witnesses and material evidence. Why wouldn't they admit it? Let's use some means," Xing Baoguo said.
Wang Peng is still naked, but he has been tied to the wooden frame of the security department. After being whipped ten times, Wang Peng burst into tears and demanded to explain the problem. The other two people were not much better off.
Then they were released and made to write down their crimes. Wang Peng was tied up again because he could not write well, and was beaten again. Under the guidance of others, he wrote two copies of the confession.
The leadership meeting of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill was still going on. “What’s the matter with this Zhang Dabiao? He is a deputy division-level cadre at such a young age, and the cousin of Deputy Director Li. How can he be so blatant?” Li Feiyue slammed the table and stood up.
"Director Li, just change the non-compliant things. My personal suggestion is to dismiss him. At his age, it's good for him to be a clerk," Deputy Minister Wang advised.
"I agree with Minister Wang's statement," Li Feiyue said, and then the first deputy factory director Shi Xincai also agreed. Liu Le and Xu Sinian disagreed, but the first two factory leaders agreed and forced the resolution through.
"Next is the issue of our factory's foreign sales, which I will be personally responsible for in the future. I can handle the contact with Huabang Trading myself. I will do my job well and strive to get more orders. Director Xu, you don't have to take on office work. I will arrange the person. Don't you know Zhang Dabiao? Doesn't he have some connections in Hong Kong? Go and talk to him and ask him to make amends for his crime and get more orders for the factory," said Li Feiyue.
"Director Li, I don't know Zhang Dabao," said Xu Sinian.
"You don't know him? Are you kidding?" Li Feiyue said.
"I have face blindness and can't tell who is who. Let someone else do this job," Xu Sinian rejected Li Feiyue.
"Xu Sinian, I find that there is something wrong with your work attitude," Deputy Minister Wang said.
"Deputy Minister Wang, if you feel there is something wrong with me, you can remove me," Xu Sinian said bluntly.
It was rare for Vice Minister Wang to be confronted in person like this, and it really made him angry.
The door of the conference room rang. It was Ji Zhengyi, the office manager brought by Li Feiyue, who knocked on the door.
"What's the matter? Didn't you see the meeting?" Li Feiyue said.
"Director, I have two things to say. The first is that Hong Kong Huabang Trading wants to talk to you on the phone. The second is that a gangster was caught in the factory, and the security department wants to know how you are going to deal with him?" Ji Zhengyi asked.
"Just hand the gangsters over to the police station. Minister Wang, can I go and answer the call from Hong Kong?" Li Feiyue asked.
"Let's end the meeting here, Feiyue, you have to control the thoughts of cadres and employees," said Deputy Minister Wang unhappily.
The meeting only passed one thing, which was to remove Zhang Dabao from his position. Of course, Li Feiyue also issued an order to hand Liu Mang over to the police station.
After Xing Baoguo received the order from the factory director, he personally led the team to escort the three gangsters to the Red Star Police Station. Wang Peng had not put on his clothes yet, but he was wrapped in a coat to prevent him from freezing to death. A wooden sign with three big characters "gangster" was hung on his chest. The three were taken to a truck with a gong on it. A security guard was responsible for beating the gong. Then the truck slowly left the factory and drove towards the Red Star Police Station.
"Minister, the man in the coat in the truck looks like Xiaopeng," the driver said to Vice Minister Wang. After the meeting, Vice Minister Wang also refused Li Feiyue's offer of dinner, and then left the factory, where he happened to meet Xing Baoguo and others who were sending someone to the police station.
"Stop, what's going on?" Deputy Minister Wang saw his little son wearing a coat naked and shivering with cold, and the three big words on the sign were particularly eye-catching.
"Reporting to the chief, the factory has caught three hooligans. After consulting the factory's main leaders, they are now being sent to the Red Star Police Station." Xing Baoguo saluted and then reported the situation.
"Let him go," Deputy Minister Wang said through gritted teeth.
"No. You are a big leader, but you cannot command us directly. Our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill Security Department only accepts orders from the factory director and the deputy director in charge." Xing Baoguo rejected Deputy Minister Wang, saluted again, got in the car, and the car started.
If Deputy Minister Wang's eyes could kill, Xing Baoguo would have been turned into meat paste, but there is no if, and Wang Peng was still dragged away.
"Go back to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill," said Deputy Minister Wang gritting his teeth. His face was rubbed on the ground today and he felt so embarrassed. The person he suspected the most now was Li Huaide. If Li Huaide appeared in front of him now, he would want to kick Li Huaide to death.
"Minister Wang, you are back. Li Huaide is such a bastard. He is causing trouble. Hong Kong called and said that our products have serious quality problems. The balance will not be paid, and all new orders will be cancelled. They are also suing us and asking us to pay compensation." Li Feiyue was originally very happy to answer the phone, but the content of the call was like being struck by lightning. Now that he saw the leader, of course he had to push the responsibility away first.
"Li Huaide is a beast!" Deputy Minister Wang flew into a rage after hearing this.
"Li Feiyue called the ministry and asked Li Huaide to come to the Red Star Steel Mill. I want to hear his explanation." Deputy Minister Wang scolded Li Huaide, but the problem still had to be solved. He had spent so much effort and asked the old leader to take action, hoping to show his face. Unexpectedly, on the first day Li Feiyue took over, his face was not exposed, but his buttocks were exposed, and he even asked someone to take off his underwear.
Chapter 380: The New Factory Director Loses Face
Deputy Minister Wang was waiting for Li Huaide in the factory director's office angrily. At this time, the phone on the table rang. Li Feiyue answered the phone, "What? Li Huaide hasn't taken office yet. I know, and Minister Wang also knows. Li Huaide is the deputy director of your Metallurgical Bureau, right? Let him come to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill now." This was a call from Yang Weihua.
"Li Feiyue, who the hell do you think you are? Let me tell you again, Li Huaide hasn't been appointed yet. Don't you the hell understand what I'm saying? He's not our man yet. The organization department hasn't sent him here yet. Where can I find someone? You fucking thing..." Yang Weihua was swearing at Li Feiyue on the other end of the phone, scolding him so much that he almost became autistic.
"Leader, Li Huaide has not yet taken office and has not gone to the ministry. I have sent someone to his home to look for him," Li Feiyue said after putting down the phone.
"Call the Security Department first and ask about Wang Peng." Of course, Deputy Minister Wang heard Yang Weihua's cursing, and he also knew that Li Huaide was definitely not at home; he should get his son out first.
"What's wrong with Wang Peng?" Li Feiyue didn't understand.
"He was sent to the police station by the security department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, and it was you who gave the order," Deputy Minister Wang got angry and scolded Li Feiyue.
"Security Department? This is Li Feiyue." Li Feiyue dialed the number of the Security Department office.
"Who are you?" asked the person on the other end of the phone.
"I'm Li Feiyue," said Director Li.
"What are you flying for? Where are you flying to?" the person on the other end of the phone asked.
"I am Li Feiyue." Li Feiyue also got angry.
"What do you want?" the other side asked again.
"I am the factory director," Li Feiyue said loudly.
"Are you the factory director? Go to hell. You want the factory director? I'm the factory director's father. I saw the factory director leave a long time ago. Who the hell are you? How dare you pretend to be the factory director? Get out!" The security officer hung up the phone after cursing.
"***" Li Feiyue was stunned. He was already in his forties and was the top leader in other units, but he had never encountered such a situation.
"I'm going to the security department," Li Feiyue said angrily.
"Don't embarrass yourself. Do they know you? Do you have any foundation in the Security Department?" Deputy Minister Wang stopped Li Feiyue.
"What should we do then?" Li Feiyue asked.
"You are the factory director now, you have to use your own people. Now you have only brought Shi Xincai and Ji Zhengyi to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. Who else will listen to you except them? Who will take you as the factory director? You have to gain your foothold first. Get the orders done first. This is your capital for gaining a foothold here. Without foreign trade orders, what are you doing here? Are you here to embarrass yourself? Li Huaide is capable, but you are not, which shows that you lack the ability." Deputy Minister Wang was still very patient with his former servants and secretaries.
After giving instructions to Li Feiyue, Vice Minister Wang left. He knew that waiting here would be fruitless.
"Ji Zhengyi, come here for a moment," Li Feiyue called the office manager in.
"Director, you called me?" Ji Zhengyi heard Li Feiyue calling him and ran to the director's office.
"Go find that guy named Zhang Dabao. He has some connections in Hong Kong. Ask him to think of a way to get the order as soon as possible. Tell him that if he gets the order, I won't hold him responsible for not going to work every day, and I can also let him be a deputy section chief," Li Feiyue offered.
"Okay, Factory Director." Ji Zhengyi was brought by Li Feiyue, so of course he obeyed the order. After receiving the order, he came to the Supply and Marketing Section 2 and found Niu Kewu.
"Deputy Section Chief Niu, come with me to find Zhang Dabao. He has committed a crime. I will go and give him a notice," said Ji Zhengyi.
"Who are you?" Niu Kewu stood up after hearing Ji Zhengyi's words.
"Who am I? I am the person in charge of the office. I heard that you have a good relationship with Zhang Dabao. If you perform well, I will say a few good words for you in front of Director Li," said Ji Zhengyi.
"F**k you!" After hearing Ji Zhengyi's words, Niu Kewu rushed up and punched him twice, followed by a kick, and directly knocked Ji Zhengyi out of the Supply and Marketing Section 2. "F**k you, if you say another word, I will beat you to death today."
"If you dare to hit the leader, I will fire you," said Ji Zhengyi.
"What kind of leader are you? You bastard!" Niu Kewu came up and slapped Ji Zhengyi several times, causing his mouth and nose to bleed. "Brother Niu, forget it, don't be like him, he's a dog, we are not worth it." Several colleagues came out to mediate and stopped Niu Kewu.
When Ji Zhengyi heard everyone's words of persuasion, he became even angrier. Without saying a word, he got up from the ground and went to the Personnel Department alone. He checked Zhang Dabao's home address and then rode his bicycle to the compound of No. 95 Hongxing Street.
"Comrade, who are you looking for?" Yang Ruihua stopped Ji Zhengyi at the door.
"I'm looking for Zhang Dabao. Does he live here?" Ji Zhengyi said.
"He is out and not in the yard, and his car is not there either," said Yang Ruihua.
"Gone out? When will you be back?" Ji Zhengyi asked.
"I'm just a neighbor, how could I know where he went? Don't go in, I will call the police if you dare to come in. I don't know you. The streets are very chaotic now. Director Wang from the Street Office told us to be wary of strangers." Yang Ruihua saw Ji Zhengyi trying to enter the yard and stopped him directly.
Ji Zhengyi had no choice but to wait at the gate of the courtyard. He had followed Li Feiyue for several years, and he had never met the real master. If he went back like this, he would definitely be scolded. As for the difficulties he had encountered and the grievances he had suffered, Li Feiyue would not care.
They waited from noon to afternoon, and then until the children got out of school and the workers got off work, but Zhang Dabao still didn't come back. It was already evening, and after two meals without eating, Ji Zhengyi, who had been standing in the wind, couldn't stand it anymore and left.
Zhang Dabao was really not in the hospital. In the morning, he went to the Hongxing Sub-district Office to visit his aunt Wang Xiuqin. He had not been in public for such a long time, and it would be inappropriate for him to come back and not visit his aunt.
"Dabia, Li Huaide is no longer the factory director. We don't want to do your job anymore. How can we stay outside every day?" Wang Xiuqin made a request as soon as she saw Zhang Dabia.
"Aunt, my cousin has left the steel rolling mill. I can't do this job even if I want to. People will definitely use it against me since I am Li Huaide's nephew. I won't do this job anymore, no matter what," Zhang Dabao agreed quickly.
"That's right. Take a rest at home first. Where do you want to work? How about working in the Ministry of Foreign Trade?" Wang Xiuqin suggested.
"I'll take a rest for a while. The New Year is coming soon. I'll go back to work after the New Year," said Zhang Dabao.
"Let's go to my house for lunch at noon. Lao Qiao said he has something to talk to you about," said Wang Xiuqin.
"I'll go to your house for dinner tonight. You still have time to prepare. I have to visit some friends at noon today." After talking to Wang Xiuqin for a few words, Zhang Dabao left the Hongxing Sub-district Office.
Chapter 381 Dissatisfaction
Zhang Dabao came out of the Hongxing Street Office, went to Lei Huanian's house, had lunch at his home, went to Dongcheng Post Office to give Lin Hua a gift, went to the Mining Machinery Factory to see Yu Sinian, and went to the police station to see his good brothers Cao Lianbiao and Liang Fei.
"Da Biao, Sister Cuihua caught another gangster today. Section Chief Xing brought him here personally and he even had lunch with us," said Cao Lianbiao.
"Another gangster. Are there so many gangsters now? Zhang Dabiao said with a smile."
"Who said it wasn't? He's just a kid, wearing a coat with his body bent over. I don't know what Chief Xing was thinking. He caught a cold after he came here, and we have to spend money to treat him," said Liang Fei.
"It seems that the child's family is not simple. They called me several times, and their words were full of threats. Fuck it. I said, either let the Dongcheng District Branch give us an order, or get out. Can the child of a leader do whatever he wants?" said Cao Lianbiao.
"Good brother, that's very nice of you. I will treat the brothers in the institute to a good meal tonight. I got a lot of military coats from outside. Can you give one to each of you?" Zhang Dabao said.
"Da Biao, from today on, you are the real brother of Lian Biao and me. There is nothing more to say." Liang Fei hugged Zhang Da Biao.
"Are fifty pieces enough? I'll come early tomorrow afternoon and bring some meat. I don't know what kind of meat it is, but there will be meat." After saying goodbye to the two, Zhang Dabao went straight to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.
He was going to hide Meng Wutong now. If she returned home from get off work, Wang Peng's parents would definitely put pressure on her through various channels.
He went to the security department to find Xing Baoguo, and after a few words, Xing Baoguo sent someone to call Meng Wutong out. Zhang Dabao settled her in a small courtyard in Ma Si Hutong, prepared food, drinks and daily necessities for her, and heated the kang before Zhang Dabao left.
Because it was getting dark, and we had to go to the Ministry of Foreign Trade’s staff quarters for dinner, we couldn’t keep our elders waiting.
After arriving at the Ministry of Foreign Trade, he brought some frozen hairtail and two packs of foreign cigarettes and went to Qiao Baozhong's house.
"Da Biao" Li Huaide came out of the study.
"Cousin, you seem to be in a good mood," Zhang Dabao said with a smile.
"Of course I'm in a good mood. That bastard Wang Jian got himself killed today. His son Wang Peng was chopped up in the factory and then sent to the police station. Orders from Hong Kong have also stopped. Li Feiyue is jumping up and down now. How can I not be happy?" Li Huaide said.
"You have no sense of the overall situation," Qiao Baozhong came in from outside and criticized Li Huaide as soon as he entered the door.
Li Huaide and Zhang Dabao greeted each other as "uncle" and "brother-in-law".
"Huaide, we are really short of foreign exchange now and we can't act on impulse," said Qiao Baozhong.
