Chapter 619 Is your old man at home?

People who are familiar with history may know that the Empire on which the sun never sets before World War I was truly powerful.

What about before World War II?

Likewise, the influence of the British Isles has even influenced most important negotiations in Europe.

Remember that joke Chamberlain told?

"For only the second time in our country's history, a glorious peace has been brought back from Germany to Downing Street."

Think about it, a mustache even has to compromise and compromise.

Any force must listen to Mishima's opinions during the communication and negotiation process.

Just like America in later generations, the world policeman's hat is worn very crooked... Crooked's.

The influence of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets in the world is enough for it to straighten its back and point fingers at any country.

However, after two wars, the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets finally...

The sun sets over the west mountain - it becomes dark -

The ruling power of the colonial areas declined one after another. After the withdrawal of troops from Türkiye, it became the trigger for the establishment of independent flags in various places, and also marked the darkening of the sky in the British Isles.

Looking at the world influence map of the Empire before the First World War and comparing it with the recession process along the way, it is not difficult to find that this is a timeline of economic shrinkage.

What are the direct manifestations of declining influence?

Previously, the pound, a very strong currency in the world trade market, was completely wiped out.

The decline in national strength has caused the pound's international credit to also decline, and it continues to decline.

This decline is also called the pound crisis.

Note that this is the pound crisis, not the world economic crisis.

In fact, speaking of the pound crisis, since Britain abandoned the gold standard in September 1931, its status as an international currency has begun to waver.

Someone once said, "The sun never sets on the Empire. Isn't it idle? Why do you want to make pounds if you don't have anything to do?"

In fact, we cannot simply blame Ying Ji. Starting from 1926 and becoming more serious in 1929, the economic crisis that swept through capitalist countries did not spare the Great Empire.

The Great Depression from 1929 to 1931 led to an outflow of gold and a balance of payments deficit.

The specific reason will not be discussed here. I will only talk about what Yingji did in response to this situation.

That's right, abandoning the gold standard.

The exchange rate fluctuates, the market is liberalized, capital flows, and the money printing machine is turned on to print money.

The cost of paper and ink is so low. When printed together, it becomes pounds, so it is valuable, and you can buy it.

Especially during wars, people all over the world are looking for ways to protect their property from devaluation.

With the credit support of the old capitalist countries, everyone has chosen the pound as foreign exchange reserve funds.

The result is that Yingji does not respect martial ethics.

Here they are constantly stocking up on pounds, and over there Yingji is constantly turning on the money printing press.

The result was that the war was over, and the Empire's influence on the world economy was also over.

The economic strength continues to decline, inflation worsens, the balance of payments is in long-term deficit, capital outflows are serious, and foreign exchange reserves plummet, causing the credit of the pound to deteriorate.

Ying Ji was forced to announce on September 18, 1949 that the pound devalued by 30.5%, and the exchange rate against the U.S. dollar dropped from 1 pound to 4.03 U.S. dollars to 2.80 U.S. dollars.

In other words, the big guys who were holding pounds almost jumped off the building on this day, and it was dark all day.

That's right, Ying Ji made people all over the world call her a mother.

The total assets have shrunk by nearly one-third, which makes everyone want to curse.

Do you know what currency devaluation means?

Imported goods have decreased, commodity prices have increased, capital has fled, corporate competitiveness has declined, consumer purchasing power has declined, and residents' quality of life has declined...

(Don’t mess up, I’m talking about the UK)

By coincidence, what happened in 1949 happened again in 1967, and the pound devalued for the second time.

The two devaluations have similar aspects, and both mean that Britain's position in international trade and finance is further weakened.

Someone asked, after so many years, why has this problem not occurred with the U.S. dollar?

Because America is more vicious and vicious, they have transferred the credit of the US dollar to the oil system.

I won’t go into too much detail on this, let’s just talk about the pound.

The decline of the pound's influence has both objective and subjective reasons.

Sterling is as arrogant as Mr. Yingji.

It is more of a regional currency than an international currency, and the relevant regions are the Commonwealth and the British Empire.

They are those newly independent former colonies that have continued the pound peg system and inherited pound reserves, as well as countries where Britain has stationed troops and oil companies there.

(For example, Iran* is not convinced* Lang and Ke* are both convinced* Witte)

To put it more narrowly, in the vast majority of international transactions conducted using pounds sterling, one of the buyers or sellers is a resident of the pound area.

What an arrogant currency, it deserves to be slaughtered.

Li Xuewu remembers clearly that this year, Ying Ji once again announced a 14.3% devaluation on November 18, and the exchange rate against the US dollar dropped to 1 pound equal to 2.40 US dollars.

He remembers how history described the pound at this time: recognized as one of the most unstable and weakest currencies in the West.

Hong Kong City, as a pound trading area, if Li Xuewu had not collected the colonial tax for so many years, could he be worthy of Yingji's decline and the gift package for newbies?

------------------

Yu Li went to the club after teasing Li Shu for a while and finishing discussing work with Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu was lazy and lay on the kang unwilling to move. After finishing what he had to explain, he did not follow.

The whole morning passed between him and Gu Ning chatting about daily life, and they also went to the reverse room for lunch.

In the afternoon, he drove by himself and went to the homes of several teachers. Firstly, he handed in his homework, and secondly, he asked about the situation.

The school has resumed classes, and the professors at the Iron and Steel Institute who taught him will also resume their normal teaching lives.

He alone would not be able to influence the teaching arrangements of the professors, so he took the initiative and asked for permission to study with his classmates.

The professors have just received the notice from the school and have not yet figured out the specific arrangements.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After giving him a lecture and leaving corresponding homework, ask him to continue waiting for notification.

When you can no longer attend class, you have to return to class, and you will be informed when the time comes.

These professors were also entrusted by Pei Dayu, the president of the Iron and Steel Institute, to open a small stove for Li Xuewu under special circumstances.

Even if he returns to class, Li Xuewu will have to skip two grades. After all, he has not missed studying in the past two years.

After leaving the professor's house, Li Xuewu thought about his study career and felt happy.

Inexplicably, he became a college student, and made rapid progress, becoming the sole heirloom of the professors.

From the beginning of 1966 to the present, he has been blessed with the privilege of not stopping his studies and the professors' education.

Compared to those classmates whose names he couldn't name, he couldn't say that he was lucky.

I drove to visit the teacher and walked to Teacher Ran's home.

What? Teacher Ran is no longer a teacher?

Even if he is now the principal of Hongxing Primary School, can he not be called Teacher Ran?

------------------

"Why are you here?"

Ran Qiuye looked at Li Xuewu standing at the door in surprise, with excitement and joy on his face.

Li Xuewu stood at the door with his hands in his pockets, teasing her and asking: "What's wrong? You don't welcome me. Is your old man at home?"

"screw you--"

Ran Qiuye couldn't suppress the smile on her lips, her eyebrows were affectionate, and she glared at him angrily.

With an almost eager mood and deliberate reserve, she walked to the door and opened it for him.

"I went to the teacher's house to hand in my homework," Li Xuewu explained as he walked into the courtyard: "I thought about it later and it seems that Teacher Ran hasn't come here yet."

"That's nonsense, why are you so out of character? You——"

Ran Qiuye looked ashamed and pushed him, and the two of them stepped up the steps together.

The room was very warm. As the principal of a primary school, she had nothing to say about her salary or benefits. Besides, she still lived alone.

"Tea or water?"

Ran Qiuye started working as soon as he entered the house. There was hot water sitting on the stove and he could make tea at any time.

She was wearing a tight white sweater. The coat she had just left was hanging at the door, and she looked even more beautiful now.

Li Xuewu looked at the books in the bookcase on the wall and responded: "Whatever, guests are welcome."

"I'm not here to drink tea anyway."

"Quickly stop your childish jokes."

Ran Qiuye knew that it would be too shameful for him to say that he was here to hand in his homework.

I made a cup of hot tea and put it on the coffee table, and quickly picked up the books scattered randomly on the sofa.

"It's a bit messy at home, don't mind, just sit down wherever you want."

"It doesn't matter, my study is also very messy," Li Xuewu took out an English book from the bookshelf, flipped through a few pages, and responded: "Are these books left?"

"It's my father's treasure, he is very reluctant to part with it."

Ran Qiuye walked to Li Xuewu's side, looked at the old books in his hands, and introduced: "At that time, we really wanted to burn these books to avoid getting burned."

"But my parents couldn't bear to part with it. They shed tears while watching it."

She said a few words in a somewhat bleak tone, turned to look at Li Xuewu, smiled slightly and said, "I want to thank you too."

"Thank me for what?" Li Xuewu closed the book in his hand, stuffed it back to its original position, and asked casually.

"Everything you gave me -"

Ran Qiuye took the initiative to open her hands and hugged him who suddenly came to the door. It was a bit unexpected and a bit pleasant surprise.

Li Xuewu stood in front of the bookshelf, looking at the bookshelves in the room and the elegant woman under the bookshelves.

"I believe that everything is an arrangement of fate," she said, raising her head slightly and looking into his eyes: "For me, it is the best arrangement."

"It's not okay to numb yourself like this."

Li Xuewu hugged her body and said with a smile: "You have to think, I am who I am today, and I am not who I am tomorrow."

"Everyone deserves a better life, rather than confining themselves to a certain period of time."

"Do you think I'm "The Man in the Box"?"

Ran Qiuye held his body and shook it, and said with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "I am an independent self."

"Of course, of course I believe that."

Li Xuewu held her oval face in his hands, kissed her, and said with a smile: "A new era woman with independent thoughts and a foundation in literature and art."

"Did you define me so hastily?"

Ran Qiuye tightened her arms with some dissatisfaction, lay on his chest and asked: "In addition to being a new era woman with independent thoughts and a foundation in literature and art, I can't have any other label? What about you?"

"My teacher?" Li Xuewu asked with a smile.

This answer made Ran Qiuye very dissatisfied, and said coquettishly: "I am your teacher? Are you so disobedient?"

She swayed Li Xuewu's body and asked with affection in her eyes: "Do you like me to be your teacher? Can't I be your lover?"

"Of course, like white roses in winter."

Li Xuewu smiled and stroked her gradually letting go of friendship, with that handsome face.

He lowered his head and said softly: "Teacher, it's time to hand in your homework——"

------------------

Do the residents of Sijiucheng prefer to sleep on beds or on kangs?

Who the hell says they like sleeping? Stand up!

If we start from the time when the Manchus entered the customs, Manchu uncles actually preferred to sleep on the kang.

I say Man Man because in the past three hundred years, the last dynasty has had the greatest influence on the Four-Nine Cities, right?

If you think about the Ming Dynasty, that happened in a lifetime. It is no longer enough to study the sleeping conditions of people in the Ming Dynasty.

In the next thirty or forty years, various forces came in and out of the Forty-Nine Cities, and people from all over the country came here.

Some people like to set up a stove in the house, keep it warm, and then sleep on the bed.

Some people in their hometowns in the north hate the smell of soot, so they set up the stove and stove in the outhouse and sleep on the kang.

You can't tell whether a bed is better or a kang is more comfortable. The two strongest ones are the most comfortable.

"Don't think about it, I'll just change to that house later."

Ran Qiuye had already changed her clothes and came in from the door of the inner room. Seeing him still taking pictures of the collapsed bed, she said with some humor: "I'll find someone to repair it later."

"How do you explain it to others?"

Li Xuewu stood up slowly, sighed and asked, "Are you jumping on the bed with nothing to do?"

"screw you--"

Ran Qiuye blushed and said casually: "What else do you need to explain? What's the point of just saying it's bad?"

"I'm not serious. What if someone asks?"

Li Xuewu went to the outer room to wash his face, took the towel she handed him and said, "You just said there was a child at home and he was naughty and broke it."

"You squatted there for a long time just thinking about this, right?"

Ran Qiuye was really convinced. She raised her hand and patted him, saying: "Okay, okay, there is a child at home, naughty..."

As soon as I said this, I felt a little embarrassed and annoyed, thinking about what the two of them were doing just now...

That solid wood bed was bought for her by her father when she was a child. It was a particularly thick wooden bed. It was even thicker than Li Xuewu's face. What was the result?

He insisted...that movement, with a click, almost startled them.

"I'll find someone to help you lay the kang," Li Xuewu finished cleaning himself up and said with a smile, "use red brick cement boards, which are definitely stronger than wooden beds."

"I'll let you sleep on the floor next time you come back!"

Ran Qiuye was so embarrassed that she was fortunately at home. She glared at him and said, "Let's go quickly -"

"I don't have many postures on the ground, so I really need to ask Teacher Ran to teach me."

Li Xuewu smiled and put on his leather jacket with her help. He was beaten by her before leaving the room.

"Didn't the old man and the old lady say that they would come back to teach?"

"Asked, I don't want to come back," Ran Qiuye walked him to the door, folding his arms and said, "I said I like the nature and tranquility in the mountains."

"You can make up your own mind. The situation has eased. It doesn't matter if you come back."

Li Xuewu nodded, looked at her and said, "I heard that you are very serious and responsible at work. Take care of yourself."

"If you don't leave, I will keep you for dinner——"

Ran Qiuye liked his concern and listened to his instructions even more, but this love must be cherished.

Enough is enough, and too much is never enough.

She doesn't long for him, but also understands that he doesn't belong to her. She only makes sure that she can guarantee that she is his confidant.

Ran Qiuye doesn't want to be a stumbling block for him, embarrass him or embarrass herself, but is more willing to be his stepping stone to help him and himself.

When he came, he said not to paralyze himself. What Ran Qiuye recognized was not fate, but him.

Because of him, this period of life is possible.

If the nothingness in front of her was like a dream, she would rather be immersed in the life he gave her.

At least she is happy now.

------------------

"Look what the newspaper says!"

Li Xuecai sat on a chair, holding the newspaper in his hand and reading toward the light: "Instructions on Educational Reform..."

"The school is still a mess, just like before."

Zhao Yafang opened the oranges in her hand, removed the skin on the leaves, and fed them to Li Tang and Li Ning separately.

Although the two little guys have grown teeth, they still cannot eat oranges with soft skins.

Li Tang was a bit naive. He stretched out his little hands to eat the orange peel. For some reason, he liked this bite.

The oranges were brought back by Li Xuewu. In previous years, eating these oranges was as good as daydreaming.

However, with the establishment of local offices of Hongxing Factory and the completion of the trade relationship network, the first batch of dividends has been realized.

Specialties and cash crops from all over the country were sent to the capital on special trains from the Hongxing Factory and dispersed throughout the country.

Employees of the Red Star Factory and joint units can also eat fruits and dried fruits from thousands of miles away.

Zhao Yafang was reluctant to eat this precious thing, and even ate the oranges carefully.

Even if Li Xuewu takes boxes of them home, he still has to take care of the old and the young.

The Great Demon King Li Shu didn't need anyone's help. He held the oranges and stuffed them into his mouth one by one.

The two younger brothers are still young, one is in the arms of the aunt and the other is in the arms of the mother.

By this time in the afternoon, everyone in the family had returned and were gathering around to talk.

She likes this time the most, because she likes to talk, and everyone also likes to listen to her.

A big devil with a strong desire to express himself.

"What did the school say?"

Liu Yin came over and stood behind Li Shu, preventing her from falling off the chair.

She didn't understand much about the work and studies of her son and daughter-in-law, and she could only care so much.

Zhao Yafang did not look down on her mother-in-law, and explained patiently: "It is still in the stage of restoring order. I am helping in the Academic Affairs Office, and Xuewen is helping in the Student Affairs Office."

"The situation in our school is similar."

Li Xuecai saw that no one was listening to the newspaper he was reading, so he simply put it away and sighed: "There are more than 10 million people, what are we going to do?"

The more than 10 million people he mentioned refer to the backlog of students from the three classes of 66, 67 and 68.

Without distribution, more than 10 million people will stay in school to study, which has become a problem.

"I'll go back to school and have a look, okay~"

He shook his head and said helplessly: "There are more people in the whole school, but there are fewer people in our class."

"Some people are still on their way home, but there are also people who are old and young and can't come back. Alas -"

"Good things come in hard work. Learning is better than not learning at all."

Li Xuewu boiled a cup of hot tea and brought it to the old lady and mother, emphasizing: "Your affairs will wait."

He looked at his elder brother who had been silent and asked: "Brother, what do you think?"

"What else can you think about?" Li Xuewen said with a hint of regret in his tone, "I'll do whatever I want."

"Those people in the school haven't caused you any more trouble, have they?" Liu Yin asked with concern: "If it doesn't work, just..."

She couldn't tell what, so she couldn't ruin her son's career by not letting him go to work, right?

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Xuewu nodded and said: "If you are impatient with the things in school, just report to the research institute of Hongxing Factory. Anyway, we are cooperating with your school.

."

"If you want to transfer from a staff position to a researcher, you really can't bear to be a teacher, so you'll go on secondment. If you want to teach, you can go back."

He gestured in the direction of Zhao Yafang and said: "Sister-in-law's side is more suitable for working in the school than you."

Li Xuewen had no objections or objections to his brother's words. He also knew that he was too lazy to deal with those people and things. If asked, he would say that No. 1 Prison is the best.

It's just that the prison and the school no longer cooperated, so he had no choice but to stay there and not report back to school.

However, there is still a discount on going to the Hongxing Factory Research Institute. It is always a bit inappropriate for my brother to be there.

This is a psychological burden on him. It is not worth it to ask others to gossip and cause trouble to Xue Wu.

"Let's check with the school."

Li Xuewen thought for a while, but declined his brother's opinion and replied: "The school will not let him go at this time."

"It's okay, you can make your own decision."

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Our factory has set up an aircraft research institute. If you are interested, come and have a look. I will ask Jingrong to handle the procedures for you at the school."

He has said it all, and there is no need for more words.

Whether I go or not, actually, it doesn’t matter what my elder brother says, this mushroom is a bit of a phobia of choice.

Isn't that right? My sister-in-law is here. As long as she understands, we can chat more tonight.

------------------

After Li Xuewu came back, two years passed quietly.

Time passed so fast, it went by in a blink of an eye.

As the Li family's population increased, the person presiding over the meeting also changed, and the younger generation began to cause trouble.

Li Shunjiu was busy with Chinese herbal medicine cultivation and development projects in the mountains, and the people in charge of the family were Li Xuewu and Zhao Yafang.

The matters discussed by the uncle and sister-in-law are basically settled, and others cannot see the full picture or say it is not comprehensive.

Li Xuewen also knew that he was just an attendee and had no right to speak, so he simply acted as a hands-off shopkeeper.

After talking about school for a while, the family talked about their jobs and children.

It was Li Xuewu who started the conversation when his sister-in-law had to go to work and discussed whether the mother should come back to help take care of the children.

"How do you remember that the first one came out?"

Zhao Yafang glanced at him and then said to her mother-in-law: "Let's wait until school is settled. The dormitory over there is tidied up. It will be convenient for the old lady to go to school with me."

Liu Yin actually didn't know what her son was thinking, and she was confused at the moment. She looked at Li Xuewu and didn't understand what he meant.

"It's too much trouble. The old lady can't take care of it alone," Li Xuewu explained: "It's better to let mom come back. After all, she is old."

"There's nothing I can't stand," the old lady said, sitting on the kang. "In winter, it's just a bit of effort to go upstairs, nothing else."

"Mom will be taken care of when she comes home."

Gu Ning wanted to explain, but she was clumsy and could only look at Li Xuewu and say.

Li Xuewu explained to his mother in a gentle voice: "You go home and take care of Li Tang with my grandma. You can also help look after Li Shu during the day. I will just pick her up and drop her off and back from get off work."

"Jingru is watching Li Ning at home. If you do this, you can walk away, and you won't have to worry about the family."

It was difficult for Zhao Yafang to talk at this time, so the discussion was about helping her take care of the child.

My grandma is over sixty, and my mother-in-law is over forty. It is when the children are crawling and naughty that they have to be looked after by one person, which makes them very tired.

Li Shu is a little older and only plays in the house. There are no people in the front and backyard, so she is easy to take care of.

"I told Xuewu this morning," Gu Ning said while everyone was pondering, "I was thinking about my sister-in-law going to work, and my mother must be thinking about her family."

"Don't I miss you when you go to work?"

Liu Yin sighed, looked at the three grandchildren at hand, and asked with a helpless smile: "Is this called the trouble of happiness?"

"Hehehe——" Li Xuecai chuckled a little heartlessly: "If we wait another two years, we will..."

He only said half of what he said before he was pushed back by Ji Yuxiu, whose face was red with embarrassment and standing behind him.

Everyone looked at the young couple and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Listening to the meaning in their mother's words, they already agreed, and Li Xuewu and Gu Ning also felt settled.

I am really afraid that my mother will be too worried, but I am also afraid that she will miss her children, so this is a solution to both problems.

We didn't have dinner at home in the evening. After the family meeting, before it got dark, the family drove back in the car.

In the winter months, darkness equals cooling, and sunlight is synonymous with temperature to the earth.

Compared with later generations, the temperature in Beijing was very low, with temperatures reaching minus 11 or 12 degrees Celsius.

If there is a very cold weather, it can reach more than 20 degrees below zero, which is rare to see in the Northeast in later generations.

The cold weather is not necessarily a bad thing, at least there are fewer young people wandering around on the streets.

Li Xuewu looked out of the car window and saw that these young people could dance around for another year at most, at most.

This coming year...

------------------

"This is made of peanuts, this is made of melon seeds, this is made of sesame chips..."

In the conference room, the officials from the economic office distributed snacks to the factory leaders.

At the same time, the person in charge of the food factory was making introductions.

"Zheng Xudong, okay -"

Cheng Kaiyuan fiddled with the table of snacks in front of him, smiled and praised him: "What an idea!"

"It's the leaders' suggestion," Zheng Xudong, the person in charge of the food factory, replied with a smile: "I just did some management work."

Jing Yunong glanced at him without saying a word. He looked at the snacks in front of him but didn't do anything.

She brought this person up, but she didn't expect that he also had a pair of white eyes.

What is good advice from leaders?

As far as she knew, the types and development of these snacks were mostly planned and suggested by Li Xuewu.

I mentioned earlier that reports from food factories must carry Li Xuewu’s name to ensure that the application materials can be approved by the leadership.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now there is news from the factory that some key positions in the factory will be adjusted at the end of the year.

Among them were those from the security team. No specific details were mentioned, but it was self-evident as to who they were.

Despite the fact that on the surface she treats Li Xuewu openly, and sometimes there are even rumors that the two have conflicts, she is very concerned about Li Xuewu.

Some gossips say they have noses and eyes. Who would believe it if no one is behind it?

"Okay, the food factory has finally started production," Cheng Kaiyuan, who is now in charge of the tertiary industry, smiled like a fat man and praised with a smile: "It has lived up to expectations. Congratulations."

"I came here today mainly to ask the leaders to criticize and give more opinions to our food factory."

With a reserved smile on his face, Zheng Xudong took the initiative and said: "This batch of snacks will be supplied to the supply and marketing system for the time being, and adjustments will be made after waiting for feedback."

He couldn't help but glance at Deputy Director Jing, coughed slightly and continued: "The ultimate goal is to supply export orders, and the main destination is the port city."

"Small snacks, big business -"

Li Huaide walked in from the door with Li Xuewu and said this after hearing Zheng Xudong's introduction.

Li Xuewu glanced at the conference table as he passed by.

Of course, he also received the glance from Deputy Director Jing. Is there a password?

"What the hell is this?"

After Li Huaide sat down, he let Li Haiyang put away the notebook and tea cup in front of him, picked up a tube of snacks, looked at them, and said with a smile: "It turns out to be hawthorn slices."

“The packaging is a bit bad, but the taste is pretty good.”

Li Xuewu took it and opened it, gave half of it to Lao Li, and stuffed a few pieces into his mouth to taste.

Li Huaide looked at the half-tube of hawthorn slices in his hand and smiled helplessly, thinking that no one would treat me like a child except you. I really appreciate you sharing the snack with me.

"Paper packaging is conducive to the preservation of hawthorn slices." Zheng Xudong was afraid that Li Xuewu would come and make suggestions, so he quickly explained: "We are also helpless."

"It's not that paper packaging can't be used."

Li Xuewu raised the hawthorn slice in his hand and said, "Look, what kind of paper is this?"

"The paper I burned at the grave earlier is better than this, right?"

He put down the snacks in his hand, drooped his eyelids and said, "Let's change the packaging. This paper will definitely not work."

"Ask more and experiment more."

Cheng Kaiyuan smiled and smoothed things over: "Zheng Xudong, you should go to a tea shop or a steamed bun shop."

He turned to Li Huaide and said: "This wrapping paper is indeed a problem. Kraft paper is stronger and more beautiful."

"Well, it's a small problem. I still didn't pay attention to the details."

Li Huaide looked at the wrapping paper in his hand carefully and said nonchalantly: "Come down and coordinate with the packaging factory."

"I understand, I'll do it when I get down, leader."

Seeing that the leaders did not pursue the matter, Zheng Xudong nodded quickly and expressed his stance.

Li Xuewu rummaged through the snacks on the table, picked up a few questions and asked them.

Trademark, packaging, taste, shelf life...

He didn't save face for Zheng Xudong, but he wasn't deliberately trying to embarrass him.

Of course, he doesn't know what the other person thinks, but this is work, who has the time to joke with him.

No matter who he stands behind, the work that needs to be done must be done completely, otherwise the Red Star Factory's face and money will be lost.

Cheng Kaiyuan defended him, and Li Xuewu could naturally see that he didn't want to stand up for her despite Jing Yunong's eyes.

If it was in private, Li Xuewu really wouldn't say so bluntly. In the conference room, the other party took the initiative to ask for their opinions, so they could say whatever they should.

Li Xuewu's uprightness never required him to explain or emphasize anything to anyone.

Finally, when Zheng Xudong went out, his face was covered with sweat, because Li Xuewu knocked him back to his original shape with just one sentence.

"Leave professional matters to professional people. This is true for management and technology. Don't give blind orders."

Who knows who he is scolding, but there is more than one cold-faced person in the meeting.

------------------

"Leader, I..."

In Cheng Kaiyuan's office, Zheng Xudong complained a little aggrievedly: "I didn't offend him."

"What's the word?"

Cheng Kaiyuan glanced at him and waved his hand impatiently, motioning for him to sit down and talk.

"What does it mean to offend? Didn't Deputy Director Li talk about the actual situation? Isn't it good for you?"

He threw a cigarette and emphasized again: "Your subjective consciousness is not good, it is very dangerous."

It’s not the case for Zheng Xudong to smoke the cigarette that the leader just threw over, it’s also not the case if he doesn’t smoke.

He really couldn't understand what the leader meant by this scolding and coaxing.

It was Deputy Director Jing who transferred him from the Finance Department to the food factory as deputy director.

Of course he was grateful for Deputy Director Jing's support, but things had changed and now Deputy Director Cheng was in charge of the tertiary industry.

We can't let him ignore the olive branch of his supervisor and miss the old leader's old friendship, right?

Besides, he consciously works for Red Star Factory and the organization, and he is very magnanimous.

So in the conference room today, when faced with Deputy Director Jing's attitude and eyes, he dodged and resisted.

What I didn't expect was that the factory leaders' initial compliments changed their tone after Deputy Director Li came in, and he became the target of verbal and written criticism.

More importantly, the opinions given by Deputy Director Li are all practical and useful.

Everyone knows that he is not deliberately looking for trouble.

However, can’t these opinions be expressed in advance?

When the food industry development plan was first formulated, Deputy Director Li was directly involved.

The snacks that are placed in front of the leaders today are still projects that Deputy Director Li participated in the design and formulation of.

When we first did this, why didn’t we make corresponding requirements?

Now that the design has been devised and exposed in front of the leaders, it seems that they are incompetent.

Zheng Xudong felt a little aggrieved, and his face looked ugly when he came out. When Deputy Director Cheng called him over, he only complained and got so many reprimands.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In fact, Cheng Kaiyuan really had no intention of reprimanding him, or was too lazy to say anything to him.

It's just that he has just mastered the tertiary industry and when it comes to formal employment, he doesn't like people like Zheng Xudong.

But, everyone understands the principle of buying horse bones with a thousand pieces of gold, so he cannot be without direct influence.

I just didn't expect the other party to be so unbearable, but he just couldn't bear it after I made some more comments or suggestions.

"Don't complain, don't complain, you are a cadre of a food factory——"

Cheng Kaiyuan patiently taught him: "How dare you say that the products produced in your factory have no shortcomings?"

"Then tell me, are the things Deputy Director Li said true?"

When he saw Zheng Xudong lowering his head and saying nothing, he glanced at him and said, "Deputy Director Li is very capable in economic work. It is rare for him to really give you advice."

"So many departments are begging him for advice, and even if they want to queue up, they can't even get a number."

"Yes, I thought wrong, leader."

Zheng Xudong also knows that people have to bow their heads when they are under the eaves.

If he offends Deputy Director Jing, and then offends Deputy Director Cheng, he will no longer have to work in the food factory.

At this time, Deputy Director Cheng even admitted that he was bullshit, not to mention that he could not refute the leader's words.

"Don't take your job as a joke."

Cheng Kaiyuan lit the cigarette in his hand, threw the fireworks to the other side, and said, "It was originally a good thing."

"As a result, if you look in the conference room, Director Li is also listening to what Deputy Director Li said."

He knocked on the table and reminded: "Your attitude is all seen by the boss. How can I say you are good?"

"Are you stupid? Are you a young man who just started working?"

After saying that, without waiting for the other party to explain further, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, if there are any problems, change them, if not, encourage them, and cultivate your mind more."

He looked through the documents in his hand, took a puff of cigarette and said, "I don't care what your opinions are. Just go back and make corrections according to what Deputy Director Li said."

"As you reported, we will first test the waters in the supply and marketing system, and then open up the foreign trade market."

Cheng Kaiyuan looked at him seriously and explained: "Let me make it clear to you, domestic trade and foreign trade are completely different things. You must pay attention to food safety."

He pointed his finger at the other party and said: "If something happens, it will be you, the management, who are responsible."

"And I will also bear joint and several management responsibilities."

"Understood, I will be serious and responsible."

Regarding responsibility, the Hongxing Factory’s agency and office management system has been implemented for more than a year.

The relevant division of responsibilities is very clear, especially for food safety. If something goes wrong in the area that is responsible for it, whoever is responsible will be contacted.

Moreover, the leaders in charge must bear management responsibilities, and the management committee will also hold them accountable.

After seeing off Zheng Xudong, Cheng Kaiyuan talked for a while, muttered something rubbish in his heart, called his secretary in, and asked about the situation of the Foreign Affairs Office.

The main reason is that on the 15th of this month, a trade fair will be held in Yangcheng. At the earliest by the end of the month, and at the latest by next month, there will be a trade tour group coming to Yangcheng.

Some foreign businessmen came last year, but most came here this year.

The production scale of the Red Star Factory this year is significantly different from last year, including a trade management center that can accommodate more foreign businessmen's purchasing needs.

To truly integrate with international businessmen, through the port city Oriental Trading as a bridge, Red Star Factory has really gone international.

Jing Yunong stared at this matter, and he was also staring at these foreign businessmen.

From this month to next, there will be an investigation team from above to investigate the performance of the Red Star Factory’s leadership team.

Those who have been able to get it recently are also a bonus, and it must be these foreign businessmen.

If he can really win a few big projects, no matter how the situation changes in the future, his position in the Red Star Factory will become more and more stable.

Once he had gained a firm footing, he also had to shake.
