Li Wenyong felt mixed in his heart: In fact, most of the credit was due to Li Wenjun. Li Changming just said this because he didn't want to make him sad.
Li Wenjun grinned: "Hey, dad, what are you talking about? You never cried when I was naughty, so why are you crying? It's me who should thank you. Thank you for raising me. Thank you, my brother, for always helping me.
"
After Li Wenyong became the mine manager, he spoke less and less to Li Wenjun, and he was actually a bit resentful. Hearing Li Wenjun say this, he suddenly felt a little stupid.
Being a mine manager is just a job. Is it necessary to alienate and resent your family for work? Thinking about it again, to put it bluntly, 80% of the time he was jealous of Li Wenjun's ability, and only 20% of it was because of things in the mine.
It's really a bit ridiculous.
Li Changming said to Liu Cuihong again: "Comrade Liu Cuihong, you have worked hard recently."
Liu Cuihong cried and laughed and cursed: "You damn old man, why would a family say such things?"

Sure enough, as Li Wenjun expected, the Municipal Mining Bureau did not raise any objections to the separation of the technical school from Pyrite and merged into "Wenjun Education" and directly approved it.
As a result, the technical school officially became another important component of the "Civil and Military Education" in early March and was renamed the "Civil and Military Technical School".
Tao Guangming and Zhong Zhenhua took full advantage of their broad network of friends and helped Li Wenjun recruit more than a dozen teachers from different majors and recent graduates from the university.
In fact, Tao Guangming and Zhong Zhenhua knew very well that without Li Wenjun's fame and financial resources, these teachers and college students would not come to this poor ravine just because of their few words.
The teachers were disappointed with the simple and small campus of the technical school, but they were very satisfied with the dormitory and three meals provided by Li Wenjun.
Moreover, the campus under construction behind the technical school looks very good. It is foreseeable that with the expansion of "Wenjun Industrial", the technical school will also expand exponentially in the near future.
Recruitment is going on here, and enrollment is going on there.
The Education Bureau helped distribute flyers to middle schools in various towns and counties.
Because of Li Wenjun's generous funding to various primary and secondary schools, almost all principals know him.
In addition to what Li Wenjun said, it is too tempting to study well and enter "Wenjun Industrial" to work. It means that you will have a formal job in two or three years. Such a good thing cannot be found anywhere now.
The "Civil and Military Technical School" provides food and accommodation. Children of this age are in a rebellious stage. They can eat and make things, but they can't do much farm work. Keeping them at home is a waste of food. If they are locked up in a technical school, they will not get into trouble and they can learn something.
The craftsmanship couldn't be better.
Therefore, there is an endless stream of parents who come to register their children. Some of them bring their children here directly, eager to put their children into technical schools immediately. As long as they have a junior high school diploma, no matter they are an eighteen-year-old lazier or a fifteen-year-old who is jumping up and down.
Li Wenjun accepted all of his children.

Li Wenyong is meeting with several section chiefs of the finance and sales departments today to solve the problem of tight funds.
This month’s salary has not been collected yet.
Because the city's steel plant is now slowly reducing the amount of pyrite ore it purchases.
The reason is that pyrite ore is poor ore.
Everyone discussed and discussed, but there was no good solution.
The so-called clever woman cannot make a meal without rice.
If the steel mill does not collect ore, it will have no money, and without money, it will have no way to pay workers.
Li Wenyong proposed that his own salary could not be paid for the time being.
That's because he has money, and nothing will happen if he doesn't get a month's salary.
The same cannot be said for others. If only his salary is not paid, it will be a drop in the bucket and of no use.
What's more, even if this month's payment is issued, what about next month's payment? Li Wenyong still doesn't want salary?
And in addition to wages, the daily operation of such a large enterprise in a mining area also requires money.
So this is not a long-term solution.
"Otherwise, ask the military commander if there is anything you can do." The head of the supply and marketing department timidly reminded Li Wenyong.
When the mining area was in the most difficult situation last time, it was Li Wenjun who helped. Now that there is no better way, I can only ask him to help again.
No one has this face, only Li Wenyong does.
Of course Li Wenyong knew this, but he didn't want to ask Li Wenjun because he felt too frustrated.
He is a dignified mine manager, and when he has something to do, he has to go to the factory director of his subordinate company, which makes him unhappy no matter how he thinks about it.
The phone rang on the table.
Li Wenyong stood up and picked it up, and Li Wenjun's voice came from inside: "Mine Manager Li, are you free? I have something to talk to you about."
It’s really like “Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will come.”
Li Wenyong snorted: "Do you have anything important to do, and you have to come to the office specifically to talk about it?"
Li Wenjun didn't care at all about the dissatisfaction in his tone: "There is something very important."
Li Wenyong: "Okay, come here, I can't stop you anyway."
Li Wenjun: "Okay, I'll be here right now."
Then Li Wenyong immediately left the meeting.
He didn't want his subordinates to see him begging Li Wenjun.
It's already embarrassing enough, and if he has to be embarrassed in front of his subordinates, he won't be able to hold his head up anymore.
-----
Li Wenjun arrived very quickly. After all, it only took five minutes to drive from the factory area as soon as he stepped on the accelerator.
When the people in the agency saw Li Wenjun, they nodded and said hello.
Li Wenjun responded one by one with a smile.
In the past, some people still had illusions about mining areas, thinking that if they discovered new mineral veins, they would be able to survive until they retired, so they were a bit unethical.
It’s only since last year that everyone has clearly felt the distress in the mining area.
Unlike in the past, when enough ore was mined to fill a train, it would be hauled away. Now the ore is dug out and piled in the open air, where it remains untouched for many days.
The underground workers who should be busy mining are also on vacation.
What does this mean?
No one wants the ore!
It’s no use having mines!
Everyone has returned to the original understanding: we still have to hug Li Wenjun’s lap.
Even the mine manager wanted to hug Li Wenjun's lap, let alone ordinary people like them.
So now, no one in the mining area dares to gossip behind his back.
Anyone who sees Li Wenjun is in a friendly mood.
Li Wenjun knew it well and saw through it without saying anything.
He walked straight to the door of the mine director's office.
Thinking about it, after Li Wenyong became the mine manager, it seemed like this was his first time here. He paused at the door before pushing it open and entering.
Li Wenyong saw him lift his chin towards the sofa, motioning for Li Wenjun to sit down, and then he walked over, sat back, and waited silently for Li Wenjun to speak.
Li Wenjun said: "I have an important thing to do today. The land leased to me by the mining area has been used up. I want to rent some more land from the mining area."
Li Wenyong's face darkened: "The mining area was calculated by you at that time, so I rented such a large piece of land to you so cheaply. Now that I am the mine director, how can I do such a good thing?"
