Chapter 1307 This damn charm
"Xiaoling? Why are you here?"
Wang Lu had just come out of the office when she saw Zhou Xiaoling from the dance team coming upstairs.
She is a well-known optimist. She has friends everywhere, especially in dance teams.
These girls are rich and have free time, pretty and love beauty, and they always have endless things to talk about when they get together.
Zhou Xiaoling was slightly startled when she saw Wang Lu, then she smiled and said, "I came to see you."
“Liar—” Wang Lu curled her lips and said with a smile: “If you come to see me, do you need to go upstairs?”
"Tell me, what are you doing here?" She stood at the stairs and waited for Zhou Xiaoling to come upstairs. She smiled softly and said, "Are you here to see Secretary Liu?"
"I can only come to see him?"
Zhou Xiaoling rolled her eyes and said angrily, "I declare again that I have nothing to do with him. Please do not make rumors or else you will be severely punished."
Xiao Liu is called Liu Zhen, she is Xue Zhifu’s secretary and is pursuing Zhou Xiaoling.
“Oh my—and you’re still being tortured.” Wang Lu looked at her and asked with a smile, “You’re done so soon? This shouldn’t be—”
"What are you bragging about? It's never been accomplished." Zhou Xiaoling rolled her eyes, pointed in the direction of the office, and asked, "Is the Secretary General here?"
"Oh, I hadn't thought of that."
Wang Lu raised her eyebrows, looked at her and said, "Our leaders already have children. You have no chance."
"What are you thinking about all day long?" Zhou Xiaoling said angrily, "You are so bold that you even dare to make fun of your boss!"
"I'm very bold. At most, I just made fun of the leader." Wang Lu tapped her arm. "What about you? You're thinking about the leader."
"You've become a bad person since you got married—" Zhou Xiaoling slapped her hand away and turned to walk towards the office, "Do you want to come with me?"
"Of course, I have to protect the leader."
Wang Lu really wasn't there to watch the fun. Out of respect for her leader and protection for her friend, it was more appropriate and convenient for her to be there at this time.
"You are such a good comrade!"
Zhou Xiaoling shook her head in annoyance and amusement, walked to the door of Li Xuewu's office and knocked, "Secretary-General, I'm Zhou Xiaoling."
"Zhou Xiaoling? I don't know her." Li Xuewu said without raising his head.
"Leader..." Zhou Xiaoling saw that Li Xuewu was joking with her, and walked into the office with a coquettish look, "Even if you want to pretend not to see it, you have to be serious..."
"See, I told you you couldn't come."
Wang Lu followed behind and joked, "I'll give you one more chance to say one more word, and then I'll ask you to leave."
"Leader, Wang Lu bullies others, and you also bully others--" Zhou Xiaoling pouted and stood beside Li Xuewu's desk.
"Hey——" Li Xuewu raised his head, looked at her seriously, and said, "Is this Zhou Xiaoling? You've become prettier."
"Hehe——" Zhou Xiaoling, who had been pouting and pretending to be angry, couldn't hold back her laughter anymore. She looked back at Wang Lu triumphantly, but received a big eye roll in return.
"Since you told the truth, I forgive you." Zhou Xiaoling said happily and magnanimously when she saw Li Xuewu pointing to the opposite side and asking her to sit down.
"Yeah, you've become more beautiful indeed." Li Xuewu picked up the teacup and took a sip of warm tea, nodded and said, "Summer is the season for beautiful girls."
"I finally understand why Li Xue has improved so quickly." Zhou Xiaoling said with some jealousy: "It would be great if I had a good brother who could teach me these principles of speaking, doing things and being a person."
"Who secretly told Li Xue that we should call each other second brother?" Wang Lu brought her a cup of tea and teased, "Now you envy Li Xue for having a good brother?"
"Are you from the engineering team?" Zhou Xiaoling turned her head and looked at her angrily: "Why do you always ruin my show——"
She pretended to be serious and pointed in the direction of Li Xuewu, "I wanted to show off in front of my second brother, but you delayed me."
"I am helping you out of a serious and responsible attitude towards the organization." Wang Lu said with a smile, "So that the leaders can see your true colors."
"Comrade Wang Lu, please put away your kindness," Zhou Xiaoling said angrily, "When I met my second brother, he didn't even know you."
The two started "arguing" in the office. Li Xuewu was happy to see the liveliness and excitement of the young people, and he always had a smile on his face.
It was because of this that Zhou Xiaoling dared to act so unruly in front of him, fooling around with Wang Lu and calling him "second brother".
Most people wouldn't dare to mess around in the Secretary-General's office, so the two of them only dared to play around after seeing his expression.
There is only one purpose, to make him happy.
Only when he is happy, can I ask him to agree to what I am going to say next.
Wang Lu didn't know the purpose of Zhou Xiaoling's visit today, but as a friend, how could she not understand her demands at all.
She will help as much as she can, even if it's just a supporting role. The decision-making power is still in Li Xuewu's hands, and she will not express any attitude.
It seemed as if two sparrows suddenly flew into the office and kept chirping for a while.
"Second brother, why are you so cruel?"
Zhou Xiaoling suddenly turned her head and looked at him and complained, "Xiaoxue is only eighteen years old, and you really agreed to let her go to such a faraway place to study."
"Alas - can I stop her?" Li Xuewu sighed, and the smile on his face turned into helplessness, "You also said that she is eighteen years old."
Zhou Xiaoling had her eyes on Li Xue from Yangcheng. At the beginning, she had a purpose and Li Xue was wary of her.
Later, as time went by, the two girls got along very well.
What touches people most is sincerity.
It can't be said that they helped each other, but Zhou Xiaoling's current position as a cadre did require the help of Li Xue, who spoke on her behalf to Deputy Director Jing.
Although it was a coincidence, the Propaganda Department wanted to select several professional artists for promotion to be used in the management of performance teams and theater performances.
Zhou Xiaoling was one of the first dancers transferred to the Red Star Film Studio with the art troupe. She had both the qualifications and age, but she lacked the connections.
There were dozens of people who came together at the beginning, why was she chosen?
Thinking of Li Xue's friendship, she helped Li Xue prepare a lot of things for going out before leaving, and went to the dock to see Li Xue off.
So Li Xuewu went from being on guard against this cunning girl to accepting her playfulness now.
Lu Yao knows horsepower and sees people's hearts over time.
Being cunning does not mean being bad; it is simply a desire for a better life and future under the general environment.
It cannot even be called a desire. It is the young people of the era who are swept away by the torrent and have no choice but to pursue this kind of progress.
We are all in the same circle. Some people have been promoted and made progress, and everyone is moving in this direction.
Even the most pure-hearted people will be affected by this trend.
Xiaoxiao, the prettiest but least motivated girl in their dance team who likes reading and avoids the leader, is writing her application for membership.
No one can escape the track of history; this is objective inertia.
-
When the bell rang, Li Xuewu stood up and said to the two of them with a smile, "Let's go. I'll treat you to lunch. Order whatever you want."
"Shall we go to the guesthouse to eat? It's my treat."
Zhou Xiaoling was startled when she heard the bell ring. She had been talking too much nonsense and forgot about time. She hadn't even talked about the serious matters yet.
Li Xuewu knew the purpose of her visit, but some things were not convenient to say in the office, and even more inappropriate to say after she called him "Second Brother".
He is a person who responds to soft words and not hard ones. This is not only based on his relationship with Li Xue, but also on her growth and personality.
If it really is a good seedling, he doesn't mind helping and cultivating it.
"You spend all your salary on beautiful clothes, and you still have money to treat guests." Li Xuewu nodded at her with a smile and said, "You have to be frugal."
"I just took Li Xue shopping twice, and she finally remembered me—" Zhou Xiaoling pursed her nose and said, "I just like new clothes and new styles. I can't help it, but I still have the money to treat you."
She put on a happy smile again, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Second brother, what do you want to eat?"
"That depends on who's treating." Li Xuewu led the two of them downstairs and said with a smile, "If it's me treating, then we'll just eat noodles."
"What if I treat you?" Zhou Xiaoling asked, pretending to be worried, "You don't want to sell me there, do you?"
"Hahaha--"
The three men came down from the office building. Along the way, officials and clerks from the agency kept greeting them. The two men acted like they were bullying others.
"Hello, Secretary General, are you having lunch here?"
Qin Huairu was on duty. When she saw him coming in with Zhou Xiaoling and Wang Lu, she greeted them with a smile and nodded to them while saying hello.
"Please give me two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. Rice is the staple food." Li Xuewu ordered the dishes and looked back at the two of them. Seeing them nod in agreement, he continued, "And a bowl of vegetable soup. That's all."
As he spoke, he followed Qin Huairu's instruction and went to the restaurant.
It was dinner time, and the guests who lived here or the greedy officials would also come here to eat. When they saw him come in, many people raised their hands and greeted him.
"Just sit here, it's cooler by the window."
Li Xuewu chose a seat and ordered two bottles of soda for the two of them.
Qin Huairu wanted to book a private room for them, but he didn't agree.
On the one hand, it is not worth it and a waste of resources, on the other hand, it is inconvenient. There is nothing shameful about being with two young female comrades.
Talking behind closed doors may be more likely to cause misunderstandings, so it is more appropriate to talk openly.
I believe that what Zhou Xiaoling wants to say is not suitable to be said behind closed doors.
"Thank you, Qin Suo. I'll do it."
Zhou Xiaoling and Wang Lu took the initiative to take the bowls and food, and politely invited Qin Huairu to sit down and eat together.
Qin Huairu didn't mind this at all. She smiled and pointed in the direction of the office, saying that she had other things to do and had eaten early.
"In fact, I envy Chief Qin very much." Zhou Xiaoling invited Li Xuewu to start eating first, and then whispered: "From a worker to a cadre, this is my dream."
"Aren't you also a cadre now?" Wang Lu looked at her and said with a smile, "Why do you envy everyone you meet?"
"This is called being ambitious—"
Zhou Xiaoling looked at her and said, "If I had an uncle like you, I promise no one would envy me."
"Don't you have a second brother?" Wang Lu raised her eyes and pointed to the other side, "Don't envy me."
"Brother, I really want to improve."
Zhou Xiaoling blinked her big eyes, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "How about I call you uncle?"
"Haha - what are you talking about?" Li Xuewu was so angry that he laughed. He put down his chopsticks, looked at her and said, "If you want to improve your thinking, you can't just make connections."
"My thinking is improving, and I love to learn." Zhou Xiaoling helped him scoop up some vegetable soup, "How about you give me a chance to show my abilities?"
The delicate voice spoke with double meanings. Which cadre could withstand such a test?
Just tell me, does she want a job opportunity to demonstrate her ability, or does she want an opportunity to get close to others to demonstrate her skills? Smart girls are very strict with themselves.
If Li Xuewu showed a little understanding now, she would dare to come to the guesthouse room to report the technical work to him tonight.
Of course, she also understood the gentlemanly side of Li Xuewu, so this sentence was not without a provocative side.
What you can’t eat is the most tempting.
"Opportunity? I really can't think of any opportunity here that requires you to show your abilities." Li Xuewu looked at her and asked, "Why don't you boldly recommend yourself?"
Zhou Xiaoling has been eyeing him for a long time. There are so many capable old men, such as the leaders in the factory and the department heads in the office, but she didn't bet on him and instead targeted him, a young potential stock.
Two years ago it was called a potential stock, but now it can be said to be a blue chip stock.
She took a roundabout route, bypassing Li Xue, but her target was still Li Xuewu.
For an eighteen-year-old girl, money is only valuable once, and she must find a ticket to the future for herself.
Director Li is of course good, he is in a high position and has great power. Zhou Miaomiao's precedent is right in front of her, but she is not envious at all, and will not flock to Director Li.
Only someone as shameless as Han Lu would try to snatch someone away.
What she appreciates is not only the opportunity and the power, but also the desire and pursuit for outstanding men.
So even with Wang Lu by her side, she responded boldly to Li Xuewu's questions.
"Brother, I won't pretend in front of you." Zhou Xiaoling said seriously, "I heard that the service office is planning to set up a flight service team."
She looked at Li Xuewu's expression and asked, "Do you think I'm suitable for this service personnel selection activity?"
"Did you hear that? The service office is preparing?"
Li Xuewu took a bite of the dish and introduced: "You should know about the institutional reform of the agency. The service department has long been no longer responsible for the specific business execution."
"It was organized by the labor service company, right?" Wang Lu reminded her, "Did you read the wrong notice?"
"That's because I didn't look carefully, but there should be guidance from the service department." Zhou Xiaoling explained: "The notice was passed from the service department to the publicity department. After I heard the news, I wanted to ask you for advice."
The labor service company is very large and its scale is still in the process of further adjustment.
The reform of the government system is a major project. Many departments are facing splitting and reorganization, especially those with complex operations.
Now the full name of the labor service company is [Red Star Steel Group Labor and Safety Service Company]. This is in accordance with Li Huaide’s request, and part of the work of the security team has been merged.
The labor service company is mainly composed of several parts, including the administrative management center, comprehensive service center, comprehensive training center and shipping service center.
Each branch factory and subsidiary company has a dispatched team from the labor service company, all of which are managed and coordinated by the administrative center.
The service work of the group and the park is undertaken by the comprehensive service center, including reception, sanitation, landscaping, transportation, etc.
The Red Star Training Ground, which was previously managed by the Security Group, was divided into two parts in terms of operations, with the Labor Service Company responsible for external affairs and the Personnel Department responsible for internal affairs.
It includes security training, emergency training, driving training, etc., as well as the Red Star Factory’s original police dog training and equestrian training bases and other places.
The last and most special one is the shipping service center.
Hongxing Steel Group has opened a route from Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone to Dongfeng Wharf in Gangcheng. There is currently one passenger ship with a passenger capacity of 856 people.
In addition, the special train carriages previously maintained by the Red Star Factory and the flight service team that is about to be prepared both require support from professional service personnel.
The flight service team mainly consists of two types of personnel: pilots and attendants.
The pilot Li Xuewu has already recruited a suitable one from his brother-in-law, so naturally he has to use his own people as the waiters.
The labor service company means to select female comrades with excellent basic qualities, good conduct and graceful manners from the entire factory to perform this position.
The selected personnel will be entrusted to the civil aviation company for training and will be used for the service and security of the Falcon business jets that will be received soon.
In the future, more transport helicopters will join the group's direct shipping fleet, and we need to train a group of reliable talents from now on.
Old Li was naturally not interested in these tasks and only told Li Xuewu the requirements. After Li Xuewu made some plans, he handed the job over to the service department, which led to the selection notice that Zhou Xiaoling saw.
In fact, there have been flight attendants in China for a long time, but not many people have come into contact with them.
There are not many civil airliners, and even fewer companies that own business jets. How can ordinary people buy plane tickets? Even the company leaders have to look at their level.
For a company as powerful as Red Star Steel Group, it not only has strength but also opportunities.
How can an average unit afford to keep a passenger plane?
Of course, Red Star Steel Group is not rich, and taking over a passenger plane would just cost money.
Given Li Xuewu's personality, he even handed over Lao Li's special train carriage to the labor service company for operation, so how could he run away with this business jet?
In cooperation with Beijing Railway Station, the special train carriage was once again upgraded and renovated.
Similar to the customized upgrades of Hongyun No. 1, these carriages have become the trump card among the special trains operated by Beijing Railway Station.
Even if Mr. Li wants to use it, he has to give notice in advance, otherwise he will either be on the way or at another station.
The same goes for business jets. The service company operates independently, the pilots and attendants are their own people, and they only use airport resources.
It usually stops at Beijing SD Airport. The labor service company contacts customers and operates with the airport. The profits are used to cover the cost of the labor service company.
The flight attendant position that Zhou Xiaoling is targeting does have certain special treatment, just like the waiters in international hotels.
In addition to flight subsidies, there are many opportunities to encounter on the plane.
Passenger planes are already the top-level existence in this era. If you operate business jets, only certain people can afford to ride on them.
With her position as a cadre, being a waitress alone could not satisfy her, so she wanted to take a shortcut and become a manager.
This business has just begun to be prepared. If she participates in it, she will definitely be able to accumulate experience and move much faster than others.
At least you don’t have to wait in the propaganda team to compete for the few spots available in the Propaganda Department every year.
What Li Xuewu could tell her was not what she needed. What she needed was Li Xuewu's recognition and support.
-
"Did you agree to her offer?" Qin Huairu saw Wang Lu and Zhou Xiaoling leave, and then followed Li Xuewu to the tea bar. "This girl is very scheming."
"Haha, more than you?" Li Xuewu didn't look back. He walked into the tea room and found a cool place to sit. "No need to make tea. I'll leave after sitting for a while."
"Then drink some black tea and go take a nap upstairs." Qin Huairu ordered some black tea from the bar and brought it to the tea table. "You won't be able to rest well if you go back."
"Hmm..." Li Xuewu let out a long breath, sat up straight, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said, "This is my job. What about before?"
"Being a leader is busier than before, and you are working too hard."
Qin Huairu sat beside him and said with concern: "You are still young. You should put some things aside. You can't be the only one who is tired."
"There are so many things to do, and I have no idea how to sort them out." Li Xuewu summed up his current work status and shook his head slightly, saying, "Wait a minute."
"There are more and more people like this who are looking for you to use your connections, right?" Qin Huairu glanced at the door, referring to people like Zhou Xiaoling. "You used to be the one who couldn't stand these things, so why did you invite her to dinner?"
"Times have changed, so it's hard to be sure."
Li Xuewu put down his teacup, looked at her and said, "My previous position was too sensitive, and it was a business position, so I had to come into contact with so many people."
"Is it different now?" Qin Huairu looked at him and said, "We can't just accept everyone at once."
"Hehe, do you have any problem with her?"
Li Xuewu saw through it and asked with a smile: "Tell me, is there anything I don't know?"
"Is there anything about this factory that you don't know?" Qin Huairu asked back, "You can't tame a little fox like this."
"Who said I want to make her accustomed to him?" Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "Don't be too narrow-minded when employing people. Who can listen to you all their lives, right?"
"You always have something to say..." Qin Huairu still disagreed with his idea, but there was nothing she could do to persuade him. "When he grows up and bites you back, you'll know how painful it is."
"Bite? That depends on how strong you are." Li Xuewu said, "No matter how sharp her teeth are, I can still break a few of her teeth."
"You're just bragging, I don't even know if you're strong enough or not."
Qin Huairu has become bolder. She would not dare to say anything in such a place before, but now there are no customers in the tea bar and the waiter is far away, so she dares to say anything.
Li Xuewu looked at her amusedly and said, "Thank you for your concern. I heard that your blind date was successful?"
"I told you that there is no news in this factory that can be hidden from you." Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at him and said, "I won't invite you to the wedding and won't hold a banquet."
"Why? A second marriage isn't a marriage?"
Li Xuewu looked at her and asked, "Are you unwilling, or is it inconvenient for your partner?"
"I'm already over 30, how can I find a partner?" Qin Huairu touched her neck uncomfortably, "If you think it's suitable, just get together. It's just a piece of luggage, so why bother about marriage?"
"The attitude towards weddings determines the attitude towards married life to a certain extent. Your idea is very dangerous."
Li Xuewu nodded and advised: "No matter where the problem lies, you have to think carefully about how to deal with it properly."
"Otherwise, you will be the one who suffers after you get married."
He only mentioned it briefly and didn't go into further details. It was obvious that Qin Huairu felt a little embarrassed to talk about this topic in front of him.
But from the day she decided to go on a blind date, she knew that sooner or later she would have to face Li Xuewu.
The mother-in-law’s advice was more direct: go on a blind date but not get married, and wait for Li Xuewu.
Qin Huairu also considered her mother-in-law's opinion at first, but she was also a woman and could not afford to wait for Li Xuewu.
The family's conditions were good, with no shortage of food or clothing, but the three children were growing up, and she couldn't be alone all the time.
After Li Xuewu got married, the number of times he asked for her could be counted on one hand, and the intervals between them became longer and longer.
She knew very well that she had been the one who took the initiative from the beginning, and now it was her turn to take the initiative to withdraw from this ambiguous relationship.
He doesn't need me anymore, he doesn't need a woman in her thirties.
People are always selfish and will always think about themselves. Even if it is not for themselves, they have to think about the future of this family.
We are young and strong now, but what about when we get old?
There will always be times when she has a headache or a fever, and who can take care of her by her bedside?
Don’t say that children are unfilial. There will be no filial son by the bedside of a long-term patient. In the end, it is still the couple by each other’s side who support each other.
So, after so many blind dates, I finally found the right person.
Even if she wanted to keep hanging on, she couldn't. If she continued to choose, people would start gossiping.
This is how it is these days. People will say that you have high standards or that you have no sense of shame. All kinds of rumors will appear.
From blind dating to marriage, the most difficult thing is not the gossip of neighbors, nor the nagging and hatred of the mother-in-law, nor the worries and opposition of the children, but the man in front of her who gave her a new life.
Qin Huairu prepared herself mentally countless times before sitting here, wanting to explain the matter frankly and easily.
But she didn't expect that Li Xuewu would be more free and easy than she imagined.
Yes, he has no shortage of women.
For example, Zhou Xiaoling who just left, although young and beautiful, no matter how smart she was, could she defeat an old fox like him?
I don’t know why, seeing Li Xuewu’s attitude, Qin Huairu seemed a little unwilling, or maybe she felt a backlash of guilt?
"Ahem - let's talk about it later." She replied perfunctorily, and asked casually, "How long will Songying be able to come back?"
"Not sure, it depends on the itinerary."
Li Xuewu took a look at Qin Huairu sitting opposite him and knew what she was concerned about, which was Zhang Songying's transfer to the Pharmaceutical Corporation.
To be honest, Zhang Songying's current situation is thanks to Qin Huairu, which is why she is unwilling to suppress Qin Huairu.
The two of them had unknowingly developed a competitive momentum.
Even if Qin Huairu doesn't want to make any progress, she will still compare herself with Zhang Songying, have wild thoughts and feel lost.
She wondered if her indecision and constant blind dates had annoyed Li Xuewu and stopped giving her the chance to get close to him.
At the same time, he no longer had the intention to take care of her.
"Did you replace the house?"
Li Xuewu looked out the window and saw her nod, so he continued, "Okay, let's move to a bigger house so that the elderly and children can live more comfortably."
"Especially after getting married, you need to have your own room after all. With some distance between you, you can face your relationship properly."
"I didn't know there was so much to say about exchanging houses and moving to a building." Qin Huairu shook her head slightly and said, "I just don't want to live in a compound anymore, and I don't want to suffer in an old house anymore."
"Your front yard and your backyard are on the sunny side, so they are not visible. Living in our area, we don't see the sun all year round, and we've had enough of it."
She complained, "Now that I have the conditions and no longer have any burdens, the problem I want to solve most is housing."
"The three rooms can only be exchanged for 25 square meters. All the salary I have saved in the past two years is only enough to buy a 40-square-meter house."
"How much can a person who earns a salary to support a family and doesn't work or go to school save?" Li Xuewu nodded and asked, "Didn't I ask your partner to fill in a little? This opportunity is rare, and it won't be easy to get it again."
"I didn't think of letting him take it. He should live in a house as big as he can." Qin Huairu looked at the teacup in her hand and said, "Otherwise, one day things won't be clear."
After all, a couple who got married later in life are separated by a belly. She also has three children, so this reconstituted family must have many problems.
She has now used up all her savings to buy a house. There is no need to guess whose name is written as the owner, and it will definitely not involve property disputes.
Think about it again, the living expenses after getting married and how to raise money when encountering big things, sooner or later it will be a mess.
If you don't have the intention to start a family, you should plan ahead and do some calculations in your mind.
So as to avoid confusion when the family splits up.
"Now that the window is still open, move to a bigger house. Tell me how much money you need and I'll lend it to you."
Li Xuewu couldn't harden his heart after all and completely severed this relationship.
Qin Huairu glanced at her, shook her head slightly and said, "Forget it. It's not like you don't have to pay back the money I borrowed from you. If you really need a large sum, I can lend you the money."
"I came to you to ask you something." Since the matter had been settled, she was relieved and said, "Director Li mentioned it once at the dinner table last time. He wanted to cook in the city. Did you know that?"
"I don't know. When did it happen?"
Li Xuewu picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said, "Do you believe what he said at the table?"
"I have an idea..." Qin Huairu said helplessly, "We have discussed this with Master Yang and Master Qian. If the leader really wants to do this, we want to open the catering department of the guesthouse in the city."
"We still use the Red Star Factory Guesthouse sign, and the cooks and waiters are from the factory." Seeing Li Xuewu narrow his eyes, she quickly explained, "I also want to make more profits and provide some benefits for everyone."
"Well, that's a good idea." Li Xuewu didn't care about her utilitarianism and emphasized: "Have you ever thought about how to balance this distribution of interests?"
"If we really follow your idea, how will the profits of the off-site stores be calculated? How will the wages of the employees and the welfare subsidies you want be calculated?"
He pointed his finger at the coffee table and reminded her, "Now things haven't been done yet, everything can be discussed, and people will listen to you. What about in the future?"
"You know, money can move people's hearts."
Li Xuewu put down his teacup and said, "Think about this matter again, from the perspective of the workers' labor and benefits, and from the perspective of what convenience it can bring to the factory and the workers."
“Sometimes good things can turn into bad things, and bad things can turn into good things.”
-
Li Xuewu did not rest in the guesthouse at noon. Qin Huairu was about to get married, so it would be inappropriate to brush her teeth.
Li Xuewu is also a person with a bottom line. Although his bottom line is not much, he still has to take some situations into consideration.
He didn't ask about Qin Huairu's boyfriend. She was in her thirties and shouldn't be so heartless.
Besides, if he asked too many questions, Qin Huairu would become suspicious.
The relationship between the two is simply a "sister-brother relationship", and it is enough to make sure that the neighbor's sister-in-law can be obedient.
Don't be too serious. Zhang Songying's situation is a little different from hers. Li Xuewu has never seen Zhang Songying's man.
Not to mention him, even Zhang Songying hasn't seen her man for several years. He was said to have gone out to make a lot of money and never came back, with no trace of him.
There were a few times when someone brought news home, and he was here today and there tomorrow, no matter where he was.
In Zhang Songying's words, she has men all over the world.
In this era, being able to achieve such a success is a kind of ability. Regardless of whether you make a lot of money or not, your life has not been lived in vain.
He has traveled all over the mountains and rivers, and he no longer has to support his wife at home. His fate is like that of a wandering immortal.
When Zhang Songying was with Li Xuewu, she told him that if her man came back one day, she would never lose her temper or curse at anyone.
If this kind of guy can come back alive, it means he is lucky. Whoever competes with him will be in trouble.
Li Xuewu did not feel any pressure on Zhang Songying, but the same was true for Qin Huairu. It would be so embarrassing if they really met in the compound.
In fact, it's not just Qin Huairu. He is also giving the cold shoulder to some irrelevant people. He shouldn't waste their time just because he is young and playful.
There is no way around some special situations, he will be responsible after all.
For example, Zhou Yamei, Ran Qiuye, Tong Huimei, Jin Jiaojiao...
When you calculate it this way, it seems like it’s still a bit too much.
Li Xuewu sat down to reflect on himself and felt very upset. He wondered why he was such a modest gentleman and so handsome.
Alas - it’s all my damn charm’s fault!
Some relationships and some people may need time to cool down. When he goes to Steel City, they will have their own lives.
Li Xuewu does not have any domineering thoughts. He has used both Wi-Fi networks with and without passwords, and there is actually no difference.
Unless it is a machine that is used to activate traffic for the first time, but in fact, new machines may not be that easy to use. Those who understand will understand.
For a new machine, you have to set parameters and practice it to get familiar with it, it's very awkward.
They are together just for happiness. He has no interest in being a teacher, nor does he have the leisure to plant and grow flowers. He just waters them and appreciates them when he has free time.
There is no girl who is always eighteen years old, but there are always eighteen-year-old girls.
If you don't make room in your heart, how can you accept a new good girl?

On the 22nd, the weekend, Shen Guodong went to the club to report his work to Li Xuewu.
On the second floor of the billiard room, he saw Li Xuewu who was playing billiard and a group of girls applauding and cheering.
"It's so lively." Shen Guodong looked at the unfamiliar people, walked to the other side of the pool table and said, "Brother Wu, are you free?"
"Last shot, you sit first."
Li Xuewu aimed at the white ball, looked at the black eight, tried the feel of it, and with a snap, he hit the ball into the hole.
“That’s amazing—”
"awesome!"
……
If he hadn't been clear-headed, Li Xuewu would have almost lost himself in the admiration.
Who can stand this? Seven or eight girls in light-colored skirts applaud and cheer for you, their eyes full of hospitality.
"Where did you find it? Don't say you brought it." Shen Guodong lit a cigarette with a smile and gestured to the chattering girls gathered together and asked.
Li Xuewu glanced over there, shook his head slightly and explained: "Newly recruited employees, called by Li Bai and Pei Pei, do you know any of them?"
"I don't know him, and please don't tell me that I know him." Shen Guodong waved his hand and said, "Xiaoyan is very sensitive now, and I am always afraid that I will learn bad things. Please don't cheat me."
"You are so timid that you would get scared if you saw a cat on the street."
Li Xuewu looked at him with amusement, then asked, using the teacup, "What's the urgent matter that has you rushed over here in such a hurry?"
"It's nothing urgent. I just haven't reported my work to you for a long time. I feel uneasy and want to complain."
Shen Guodong was quite frank. He moved closer to Li Xuewu and started talking.
He talked about everything from south to north, from east to west, including all the branches of the recycling stations, as well as the recycling station in Beijing.
Li Xuewu listened patiently, even though he had said long ago that these matters were decided by him and Yu Li because he wanted to train them.
Shen Guodong is feeling very suffocated now. If he is not allowed to speak out, he will be vague about the next task.
After he finished speaking, Li Xuewu asked slowly, "How is the situation in Jiaodaokou Street?"
"Okay, it's fine. Notify me that I will join next month." Shen Guodong finally gained some confidence and said with a smile, "Xiaobai has made the Beijing Marketing business a success. I feel much more relaxed now."
"Have you ever asked if there are many children of our factory employees who are engaged in transportation and passenger transport?" Li Xuewu looked at him and asked, "They are buying tricycles."
"You've really asked the right question." Shen Guodong introduced seriously: "Go to the street now and stop a car at random and ask him who his relationship is."
"Don't be vague. Eight out of ten are children of employees in your factory."
He raised his eyebrows and said, "The transportation tasks at the Beijing Cargo Station are basically monopolized by these people. It can be seen that there are more tricycles on the streets."
“Loans, basically all loans.”
Shen Guodong knew that he attached great importance to the survival and life of his employees, and gave a detailed introduction: "They generally have insufficient capital, and loans are their only way to find a way to support themselves."
"It's a good time. The rickshaws in the city are no match for the modified three-wheeled motorcycles. Many people call for them."
"There are always people who have enough money." Shen Guodong shook his head slightly and said, "It's just that I can't spare any money. Otherwise, I would definitely use the remaining resources of the street to set up a passenger transport commune."
"Hasn't it been all your money that you've earned?"
Li Xuewu took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Manpower is limited, but thinking can be expanded. Have you ever thought of handing your ideas over to the streets?"
"Just because you don't have time to do it doesn't mean others don't have time to do it."
He glanced at his brother and warned him, "You'd better find a partner for yourself. You're too dazzling and will easily be hated."
