Gu Zhanyan pursed his lips and said after a while: "Why don't we reduce the number by half, streamline staff, save expenses, and at the same time recruit students from outside the school? The tuition fees for external students will be higher. If we recruit enough people, we should be able to basically even it out."
Li Wenjun nodded: "I think it will work."
Gu Zhanyan lowered his eyes and clenched his fists, suppressing the surging anger in his chest.
This bastard definitely did it on purpose.
She always thought that she was an independent and strong modern woman. It was only after she got divorced that she realized what true independence meant. Only then did she realize how dependent she had always been on Li Wenjun.
He makes the decision on everything in the family, even when Li Wenjun is the most asshole.
Now I suddenly have to rely on myself for everything, which is really uncomfortable.
Moreover, originally she was waiting for Li Wenjun to force her to do things like downsizing her staff, but now Li Wenjun calmly asked her to do so.
Li Wenjun smiled: "Are you still worried about downsizing? It doesn't matter. Just go ahead and do it. If the comrades who have been downsized are willing to work in the factory, I will accept it. They will not have any objections."
If he is still too lazy to work after entering the factory, he will fire him and the other party will have nothing to say.
Gu Zhanyan nodded slightly: "Okay."
She didn't say anything more, got up and left.
When he returned to his study, Gu Zhanyan was still angry and walked around the room.
Someone outside shouted: "It's snowing."
Gu Zhanyan breathed out suddenly: What is she angry about? Isn't this just what she hoped?
"Ah, it's so snowy." It was Aunt Tang who was talking.
Gu Zhanyan walked to the window and opened the curtains.
In the dark blue night sky, there was indeed heavy snowflakes floating in the sky, and there was a rustling sound, as if someone was whispering in my ear.
The scene of Li Wenjun taking her children and building a snowman with her outside seemed like just yesterday, but now they were as unfamiliar as ordinary superiors and subordinates.
Was she wrong?
If you regret it, can you still go back?
Perhaps, this is just the pain that she must go through on her way to freedom, and she should grit her teeth and go on.
-----
Before the end of the year holiday, Li Wenjun received good news from Yang Shouzhuo, saying that the bridge repair procedures had been basically completed and Li Wenjun could start construction at any time. However, in terms of funding, Li Wenjun had to find a way on his own.
Li Wenjun naturally understood that even if the county had money, it would not build the bridge for him even if it had money, so he did not have any doubts and just expressed his gratitude to Yang Shouzhuo.
The Mining Area Hospital recently successfully performed a cesarean section, which is a big step forward.
Dean Hao was so happy that he called Li Wenjun himself: "Thank you so much, Comrade Li Wenjun, for your support."
Li Wenjun said with a smile: "President Hao, don't be too excited. In the future, all kinds of difficult surgeries can be performed in the mining area, and the hospital will become stronger and stronger. When the hospital is completely integrated into 'Wenjun Industrial', I will build a new one for you."
building."
This cake is quite big, but Director Hao is still cheerful. After all, with the help of Li Wenjun, the reputation of the Mining Area Hospital has become greater than that of the County People's Hospital, and there is an endless stream of people coming here to see the doctor.
Li Wenyong finally made up his mind this year and streamlined part of the staff, so there were even fewer people. If Li Wenyong's house hadn't been blocked by a wall, these people would have definitely rushed in and poured shit.
Some people went to their leaders to cry, make trouble, and hang themselves, but it was all to no avail.
After all, it was a normal procedure, and compensation was given in accordance with regulations. It was legal and reasonable, and no one could control it.
Besides, it is already very difficult for the pyrite mine to maintain its operations. Those who have been streamlined are usually idle, lazy people, and the leaders do not want to get involved.
Li Wenyong relied on selling stones to Li Wenjun to pay some bonuses to those who stayed.
At the end-of-year summary meeting, Li Wenyong sat alone, facing the scattered employees below who were dying, and it felt like a memorial service.
The year-end meeting at "Wenjun Industrial" was even more lively. There were many more people than last year. In addition to the leaders' speeches, each factory also performed a program.
Whether it looks good or not is secondary. The main thing is that the beating of gongs and drums makes it so festive.
Li Wenjun looked at the schedule and found that the major tasks that should be completed this year were basically completed.
Except that he is single again, which is not part of the plan.
And is this a good thing or a bad thing?
After the annual meeting ended, Zhang Aihua talked to Li Wenjun privately and said that he had thought about it and was willing to go to Hong Kong City as soon as the New Year started.
Li Wenjun also breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, someone over there was watching for him.
Tao Guangming got the shares of Gangcheng Port, and was told by Mr. Tao to go back and sit on the throne during the New Year. In the Tao family, this is a scorpion daddy, a unique (poisonous) person, and very powerful. So he no longer has to make any excuses, and takes it with him
Ji Rushifeng's scenery has returned.
Because Ji Qingtao and Tang Zhaonian reconciled, Ji Qingyan could finally take Tang Zhaonian back to her parents' home. At least they didn't have to worry about a fight between the two of them while eating.
Tao Guanghui went to Sioux City to celebrate the New Year. After all, Kong Yuzhen is now based in Sioux City.
So Li Wenjun is the only one left in the whole villa community.
The New Year's Eve dinner at Li Wenjun's family was also much richer than in previous years. There were king crab and foreign wine brought by Tang Zhaonian from the port city, Jinhua ham brought by Tao Guangming, Peking duck and Shaoxing rice wine, and Suicheng roasted by Yang Shouzhuo.
Goose, roasted pig and jade ice soju.
Liu Dongmei had never tasted any of these wines before, so she was very curious and wanted to try them all, even dragging Gu Zhanyan along to try them.
Originally, if you drink these drinks alone, you will be fine as long as you don't drink too much. However, if you drink too many drinks in one sip, you will get drunk very easily.
Liu Dongmei's face turned red and she started talking nonsense, but Gu Zhanyan held her head and remained silent.
Li Wenjun and Li Wenyong were also a little dizzy.
"Let the three children sleep with us tonight. You two can each support your wife and go back." After Liu Cuihong told Li Wenjun and the others, she said to the children, "How about we set off the fireworks, watch TV, and then sleep in the Datong bunkhouse."
"
The children screamed with excitement: "Okay, okay."
Li Changming also wished he could take his grandchildren with him, and waved to Li Wenjun and the others: "Go, go, go back quickly, don't let us watch here and get upset."
Li Wenjun and Li Wenyong really wanted to lie down, so they each helped one back.
Gu Zhanyan was completely at the mercy of others. Li Wenjun put her on the bed in the master bedroom and was about to leave, but Gu Zhanyan grabbed her by the corner of her clothes.
Li Wenjun turned around and asked, "Do you want some water?"
Gu Zhanyan remained silent.
Li Wenjun poured water over, supported her and gave her a sip.
Li Wenjun put the cup on the bedside table and simply sat down.
Firstly, I really didn’t have the energy to leave, and secondly, I was afraid that Gu Zhanyan would want something in the middle of the night.
Thinking about the fact that he used to be drunk often, Gu Zhanyan would serve him, and it was rare for him to serve a drunk Gu Zhanyan.
It was just that the alcohol was slowly coming over him, making his eyes dazzled and his temples twitching. He closed his eyes and folded his arms, leaning on the bedside and fell asleep.
Feeling cold in the middle of the night, someone covered him with a quilt, and he lay down along the source of warmth in a daze, and then someone crawled into his arms.
