After Li Wenyong became the mine manager, his official authority became more and more powerful day by day, and it was quite scary to see his face sinking.
Now that we have moved to the villa, the dining room is much more spacious. Once the large round table is placed, it will not be too crowded for the three children to sit on a chair each.
As soon as the place became spacious, Li Wenyong's cold face made everyone feel more and more like the hairs on their backs were standing on end.
After Aunt Tang put the dishes on the table, she hid in the kitchen and didn't dare to come out.
Only Li Wenjun was calm.
There were many times when he lost his temper and made dozens of people in the conference room tremble.
Li Wenyong can only scare a few people at home and workers in the mining area who have never seen the world, but it will have no effect on him.
He smiled and said, "Brother, if you have anything to do, tell me slowly after dinner. Don't affect your parents' mood during the meal."
Li Wenyong glanced at Li Changming and the others before softening his expression a little.
Liu Cuihong said weakly: "If you two brothers have something to do, please talk to us."
Although he often fought with other people's children when he was a child, the brothers never fought with each other.
Why do we always have disagreements when we are older?
Li Wenjun grinned: "Mom, don't worry. It's nothing serious."
When Li Wenjun said this, Liu Cuihong's face became better.
Li Wenjun glanced at Li Wenyong meaningfully.
Li Wenyong forced a smile on his face: "Yes, it's nothing. I just bit my tongue."
-----
After eating, Li Wenjun tilted his face towards his house, motioned Li Wenyong to go to his house, and then left.
He boiled water and made a pot of tea and waited silently in the study.
After a while, Li Wenyong's footsteps sounded on the stairs, a bit heavy and messy, completely different from his usual unhurried nature, which showed that his mood was also very tangled.
Li Wenjun twitched the corner of his mouth.
Li Wenyong pushed the door in, sat down with Li Wenjun, and stared at Li Wenjun with squinted eyes: "Are you going to rob me of all my people?" In fact, it was already difficult for him to accept the resignation of Guo Jianguang and Zhou Liguo last time.
Although it was their personal choice, they always felt as if he was not managing well and no one had confidence in him anymore, so they left.
Li Wenjun poured him a cup of tea: "Everyone is driven by profit, and no one can stop this trend. Not to mention them, even you will come to me for help in the future."
In order to take care of Li Wenyong's self-esteem, he said he was helping, but in fact he came to work for him. However, the reward he paid to Li Wenyong would be much more generous than others.
Li Wenyong snorted coldly: "That's not a bad tone. I won't come to work for you."
Li Wenjun held his chin: "Have you ever thought about a question, what will you do if the mining area closes down?"
Li Wenyong was stunned.
In fact, this problem has been lingering in his heart for the past year. He would wake up when he suddenly thought about it in the middle of the night, and it would be difficult to fall asleep again.
When Li Wenjun asked him this, wasn't he just poking his lungs?
He is different from Guo Jianguang. Guo Jianguang is a veteran technician. He applied to go to the underground and work on the front line. Now he helps Li Wenjun manage the workshop and is like a duck to water. But he has been mining since he started working and has never done anything else. He has a high school diploma and does not mine.
Are you going to help Li Wenjun build houses and build roads?
He gritted his teeth and swore, "Pyrite will not fall. I will not let pyrite fall."
Li Wenjun looked at Li Wenyong with pity. He knew the significance of pyrite to Li Wenyong, but such a struggle was in vain.
This time, the mining area was unable to dig out ore for several months, and the earthquake caused the old mine to collapse, which was actually a preview of what would happen on the eve of bankruptcy.
It's a pity that they don't have this awareness and are unwilling to see this fact clearly.
Poor iron ore such as pyrite is not strong enough to use with hoe or kitchen knife.
The city's steel plant will also need to transform in the future. It must produce high-precision steel to survive, and high-precision steel can only use rich iron ores as raw materials.
Now they are still willing to accept pyrite mines, but only because they have tasks and subsidies.
When everyone is responsible for their own profits and losses, the city's steel plant will not accept even a ton of pyrite ore.
To put it bluntly, if he had not kindly told Li Wenyong to dig in another direction, Li Wenyong would still be worried about whether the pyrite would be dismantled tomorrow.
Li Wenyong became angry and stood up: "Well, since I can't explain it to you, let's go across the sea and see who can keep him. You have been taking over Black Stone for the past six months to help the mining area maintain operations.
If you go, I will continue to let you use the school in the mining area. However, for the children of non-mining area workers, the mining area cannot provide education subsidies, so the tuition fees will naturally not be the same as those for children in the mining area. The same goes for kindergartens. I will notify the children's schools and kindergartens tomorrow."
Li Wenjun nodded: "Well, this is fair. As long as they are the children of my employees, I will bear all the tuition and fees."
Li Wenyong suddenly said: Damn, forget that the most important thing this guy needs now is money. In this way, the treatment of factory workers is better than that of workers in the mining area. After all, the workers in the mining area have to pay a symbolic fee for books.
The confusion on his face made Li Wenjun want to laugh.
In fact, the money he invested in the school was far more than what he took advantage of, and what he did for the workers in the mining area was far more than what he took advantage of in the mine.
What Li Wenyong said just now is a bit like children quarreling, and it is not of a high standard.
------
As expected, Li Wenyong called the principal of the children's school the next day.
When Principal Shen heard that he was going to charge tuition fees for the children of employees of "Wenjun Industrial", he subconsciously said, "This is not good."
Li Wenyong was a little annoyed and held back his anger and said, "What's wrong?"
Principal Shen didn't know what the two brothers were doing, so he could only say: "'Wenjun Industrial' sponsored us a lot of teaching equipment and books, and also helped us build a sports hall. They only have a few children in class here, and I still
I always feel a bit ungrateful to charge other people’s tuition fees.”
In fact, the relationship between Principal Shen and the mining area is very subtle. It is the same as the relationship between the hospital and the mining area.
Back then, Zidi School was a supporting service unit in the mining area, and I had always felt that it was this way.
The mining area is heaven, and they dare not violate it.
But this time during the summer vacation, Li Wenjun did the trusteeship and collected almost a thousand yuan in two months. After excluding the cost, he still made several hundred dollars.
Principal Shen's horizons were opened immediately.
There is a clue to this. You don’t have to buy clothes or go out to eat, but your children must go to school.
To put it bluntly, he has the staff, the place, and the facilities. As long as he builds his reputation, is he worried that he will not be able to recruit people when recruiting students from outside?
Compared with tuition fees, the annual salary and maintenance fees paid by the mining area are simply a drop in the bucket.
So when he spoke to Li Wenyong, he was much tougher.
The worst thing Li Wenyong can do is that he won't pay wages.
When the mining area was tense a while ago, Li Wenjun was responsible for paying the school's wages.
So, who is afraid of whom?
Moreover, Principal Shen’s words also reminded Li Wenyong not to be ungrateful. Without Li Wenjun, the mining area would not be able to survive now.
