Men and women eating in the courtyard

The journey is both under the stars and at night, and the boat and horse never rest.

That's the thing about business travel, you work when the work needs you.

Li Xuewu fell asleep after getting in the car and was really sleepy.

He didn't sleep well at all last night, and he was afraid that something unexpected would happen.

Those people are so anxious that they might do something terrible.

So he never let go of the gun in his hand. The bullets were loaded and ready to fire at any time.

My eyes were always closed. It was dark and the wind was high. I didn’t need to see with my eyes. I just needed to stay calm and feel with my heart.

This level of vigilance was often used in the south, but it was also the most nerve-wracking.

Thoughts in sleep are like the scenery passing by outside the window, fast and messy.

The moment he fell asleep, he knew that it wasn't just Zhou Yamei who was waiting for him when he returned to Steel City.

The train arrived at the station on time. A group of people from the steel rolling mill adjusted their clothes, each carried their briefcases and stepped out of the carriage.

The jeep that had been waiting at the station took everyone back to the steel mill.

There was food left for them in the cafeteria. After a brief meal, Li Xuewu stood in the hall with Dong Wenxue and said a few words. Without further delay, he went upstairs to see Li Huaide.

He ran hard for two days, and Li Huaide soaked for two days.

Dong Wenxue likes to write and write, but he is not a nerd. He knows how to receive leaders and how to enjoy life.

The last time he took Li Xuewu to the hot spring, he naturally wouldn't be stingy with Li Huaide. He coordinated the hot spring guest house and took a good health care.

When Li Xuewu entered the room, he saw Li Huaide lying on the bed and humming. When they were downstairs just now, Dong Wenxue said that they had just returned from the mountain.

Of course, Li Huaide was not there to play, let alone to corrupt, but to inspect the project.

Li Xuewu once suggested to him that the steel rolling mill could also build a sanatorium in the steel city in the future.

First of all, the land is cheap and can be coordinated with the local area. Nowadays, the hot springs on the mountain are still the kind that no one cares about.

The second is the territory. This place belongs to the sphere of influence of the steelmaking plant and is convenient for management.

The last thing is service. It can be played in all seasons, and there is something to play in all seasons, which is convenient for leisure experience.

Of course, don't think of this kind of sanatorium as too high-end or too mysterious. The sanatorium at this time is not the same as the one in later generations.

Domestic industries now all learn from Mao Zi, including workers' management and welfare systems.

Among worker benefits, there are not only apples and hairtails, but also a sanatorium system.

Regular workers with enough service years can enjoy this kind of benefits and get paid leave from work.

When evaluating the quality of a factory, welfare benefits occupy the most critical link.

You heard the old people say that the welfare benefits of such-and-such unit are good, and this is what they mean.

Of course, the steel rolling mill also has such benefits, but in the past, they went to Beidaihe, and the steel rolling mill workers also enjoyed the sanatorium unified by the Ministry of Steel.

This type of sanatorium accepts workers from steel rolling mills and has to make internal arrangements with the Ministry of Steel.

In other words, the steel rolling mill has to pay for workers' recuperation.

So, where to recuperate is not just for fun. Building your own sanatorium is the ultimate goal of a big company.

Nowadays, all large units in China have their own nursing homes.

Just count the ones along the Beidaihe River, there are so many.

Li Xuewu looked at Li Huaide's flushed face and asked with a smile: "Is the scenery on the mountain okay?"

Li Huaide was waiting for him, otherwise he would have been lying down long ago.

"just came back?"

As he spoke, he got out of bed and invited Li Xuewu to sit down at the desk.

"I've been thinking a lot about the project you mentioned today."

Li Huaide nodded and smiled, and then asked: "How is it? Is it going well in Jicheng?"

"It went very smoothly. My second uncle was there to make connections and met the Ma Bureau, who is in charge of logistics work in the forestry department."

Li Xuewu's return was concise and efficient, with key information in his words: "The trade relationship has been finalized, and the next step is to wait for them to take the initiative to contact us."

"I will hand over the maintenance of the relationship to the local distribution unit. When the time comes, they will contact Steel City and all trade will be on the same line."

Finally, with Li Huaide's satisfied expression, Li Xuewu nodded and said: "You can rest assured that the procedures are compliant and reasonable, and they also care about this."

Li Xuewu explained the situation in Jicheng and the next plan.

Li Huaide nodded to express his understanding and affirmed Li Xuewu's work.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Li Huaide said with a smile: "Jicheng is the first step for steel mills to break out of the steel city, and it is also the first step for our steel rolling mill to deploy in the Northeast."

"It doesn't matter if you walk slowly, the important thing is to walk steadily."

He sat behind his desk and said with a smile: "I have communicated your opinions on the steel plant and Jicheng with Comrade Yunong and others."

"They have the same opinion as me, and they all ask comrades to go ahead and do it without any baggage or burden."

"Comrade Yunong is already working with the factory, and the human resources and financial support will be increased."

Li Huaide nodded to Li Xuewu and said, "We have to be strong when we are forging iron. You must master the trade projects well. This is the key."

"How to connect shipyards, steel mills, and other local offices will test your ability in the future."

"The next three years are a year of construction and development, and they should be a year of harvest."

Li Huaide made his request to Li Xuewu very seriously. He gave Li Xuewu such great support. He asked people to give people and gave money to people. Naturally, he was not imitating Lei Feng and doing good deeds.

Li Xuewu knows very well that leaders don't have much patience. Even though they say they want to be prudent and safe, in fact they really want you to give him a report card right away.

Of course he wouldn't let Li Huaide get used to him. He didn't talk about the difficulties or the situation, but just talked about what he was doing.

Explain clearly to the leader what you have done, and he will know what to expect. This is called tacit understanding.

Don't say anything he absolutely doesn't want to hear. You're not in charge of your son. It's useless to say anything your son doesn't want to hear, let alone a leader.

After coming out of Li Huaide's side, Li Xuewu sat with Jing Yunong and Xu Sinian again.

Of course, you can't go to the female leader's room alone, so it's necessary to bring Xu Sinian with you.

Li Xuewu reported to Jing Yunong about the situation of the Jicheng office, and discussed the financial issues in the trading work, as well as the next step of personnel arrangements.

At the same time, I also chatted with Xu Sinian about the dock operations at Yingcheng Shipyard.

In the future, Yingcheng Shipyard will not only be responsible for alleviating the pressure of overflowing industrial capacity in steel rolling mills, but also serve as a link in trade to supply the transfer of goods.

The inland river wharf in Steel City has a tonnage limit, but the Yingcheng Shipyard wharf does not.

There is another important reason for asking Xu Sinian to talk to Jing Yunong, and that is to actually form a chain of relationships.

Xu Sinian couldn't lean on Li Huaide, let alone anyone else. It was best to stand with Jing Yunong.

Li Xuewu's political situation for the future layout of the steel rolling mill should be dominated by Li Huaide, but Li Huaide cannot make the decision alone.

Gu Weijie’s Publicity and Organization Department, Dong Wenxue’s Steelmaking and Safety Department, Xue Zhifu’s Discipline and Supervision Department, and Jing Yunong’s Personnel and Finance Department.

There is also Cheng Kaiyuan, who has only been here for half a year and cannot be transferred, but has outstanding abilities and great ambitions. This is Li Huaide's "healing system".

Multiple parties unite, work together, have outstanding opinions, and have checks and balances. This is the situation Li Xuewu laid out for Li Huaide.

At least when he has the ability to participate in the decision-making game of the steel rolling mill, Li Huaide cannot be allowed to fall, nor can he be allowed to drift.

Why Li Huaide values ​​Li Xuewu so much? Just look at how "careful" Li Xuewu is towards him.

You have to put a lot of effort into educating your children. You are afraid that they will make mistakes, you are afraid that they will be corrected, and you have to guard against their pride and complacency.

Li Xuewu understood Jing Yunong's petty thoughts, which were nothing more than a woman's pettiness and the face that came from above.

She will never be attached to Li Huaide for a long time. As long as she is given a chance and she is given a firm foothold, she will definitely give Li Huaide a good look.

But these girls are a bit short-sighted and don't know the importance of the relationship between cadres and groups. They failed in the early stage and were very hurt in the later stage.

Therefore, we have to find some support for her so that she will not become frustrated all of a sudden, and will not completely lose her confidence and fall to Li Huaide.

Xu Sinian, who was alone in the outside world, had a hand-made shipyard, had an absolute geographical advantage, and needed support within the rolling mill, became Li Xuewu's first choice.

Of course Li Xuewu will support his good brother, but he is only a member of the management committee now. It is hard to say whether he can join the management committee for three to five years in the next step. He has to contact someone "reliable" for him.

Jing Yunong happened to have it, and he just needed it, so Li Xuewu acted as the "matchmaker" to match them up and form a union.

Xu Sinian didn't need to be reminded. He had been working in the office for so many years, and he was still a monkey even if he had nothing to do with it.

When Li Xuewu asked to go with him to meet Deputy Director Jing, he knew what was going on.

During the process of acquiring the shipyard, the two cooperated very well and the work went smoothly.

Now that Li Xuewu wants to "play matchmaker", he will naturally not be shy and will happily do so.

Jing Yunong didn't react at first, but when Li Xuewu finished reporting his work to her, he still didn't leave and started talking to Xu Sinian.

Especially when it comes to the Yingcheng Shipyard as a dock connecting the sea, connecting Gangcheng, Jinmen, Yuezhou, and the top port city on the Sino-Polish trade line.

The position of the steel rolling mill trade map with Tianjin as the center for trade scheduling and management is particularly prominent and important.

Li Xuewu talked to her about personnel and finance, as well as trade and shipping, dragging Xu Sinian here to talk. If she couldn't understand or understand, then she would be a stick.

So Li Xuewu handed over the message, she thought about it briefly, and then communicated with Xu Sinian.

They are all top-notch people who cannot speak very thoroughly at all, and they must only talk about work content. They can clearly explain their respective attitudes and goals in a few sentences.

Xu Sinian was in the same situation as Dong Wenxue. Division-level cadres were sent to other places, and the level of the shipyard was deputy factory.

Then, he will return to the decision-making team of the steel rolling mill as a deputy factory level in half a year.

In the next six months, what he has to do is to stabilize and build the shipyard internally, and to contact the steel rolling mill to deal with the leaders who have objections to him.

The last thing is to guard against villains, don't let people steal your home, seize power, and usurp your position.

Xu Sixian's shipyard was unwilling at first, but later it was decided, and Zhang Guoqi was doomed.

At this time, when he thought about it, he understood that as long as Li Huaide took office, his seat in the office would never be secure.

Now stepping out of the situation in the steel rolling mill and looking back from the shipyard, he is really grateful to his good brother Li Xuewu.

This move saved his old life and gave him a second spring in his life.

Li Xuewu is now showing him the second path, so he will naturally take the path.

No matter who you lick, you don't need to worry about choosing.

What's more, Jing Yunong has a very profound background. As long as he doesn't seek death, he is absolutely reliable.

Both of them put aside their disguises and masks, and completed the first step of communication with Li Xuewu's help.

When Xu Sinian came out of Deputy Director Jing's room, he looked like he had been licked. Li Xuewu looked at his excitement and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

"receive!"

"What?"

Xu Sinian was still smiling, but he saw Li Xuewu making gestures to him.

Before he could understand what was going on, Li Xuewu glared at him and said: "Relax, your expression will make people think that we have done something bad in the leadership room."

"If you are willing, go back and communicate by yourself. Don't implicate me. I'm still young..."

Listening to Li Xuewu's thoughts, Xu Sinian felt bad.

The expression on his face changed from picking up a hundred dollars to looking like he found dog shit on the money.

"I wanted to thank you just now, but now I just want to kill you."

Xu Sinian couldn't help but look back at Deputy Director Jing's room, feeling that this was not a bad thing.

That's right, Deputy Director Jing is younger than him, but he is more knowledgeable and has a higher starting point, so he is ahead of him.

Li Xuewu watched him stop talking after finishing a sentence, and the expression on his face gradually turned obscene, so he couldn't help but move to the side.

"What are you doing?!"

Xu Sinian was thinking about asking Li Xuewu to go sit in his room with him, but just as he turned around, he went downstairs.

"I'm going out to do some errands. You can rest first."

Li Xuewu's voice came from the stairs. He wouldn't go back to the room. Biaozi's wife was here, so what's the point of going back at this time.

Downstairs, as soon as he arrived in the lobby, he saw Dong Wenxue sitting in the rest area and waved when he saw him.

"Have you been waiting for me?"

Li Xuewu said with some embarrassment: "I just talked to Deputy Director Jing and the others for a while."

"It's okay, I just came down too"

Dong Wenxue motioned to Li Xuewu to sit on the sofa next to him.

Li Xuewu looked at Dong Wenxue's face, sat down, and asked, "Deputy Director Yang is looking for you?"

"No"

Dong Wenxue shook his head slightly, sighed and said, "Let him go."

"It seems that he is trying to find a way to the dark side."

Li Xuewu narrowed his left eye slightly and said, "Then give up on him. Do you have any other ideas?"

"Yang Shuxing, this person can be discussed."

Dong Wenxue raised his head tiredly, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "His current situation is also very delicate. Director Li intends to open up the situation in the steelmaking plant and wants to start with him."

Li Xuewu frowned. The reform of the management committee of the steel rolling mill was almost complete.

Li Huaide wanted to extend the reach of the management committee to the steelmaking plant, which was understandable.

But for Dong Wenxue to carry out this matter, I am afraid there is a deeper meaning in it.

Li Huaide has many ideas and is very cunning. This man is an out-and-out businessman and speculator.

"Things can be viewed from both sides. Yang Fengshan's current situation seems very dangerous, but in fact it has passed the most dangerous stage."

"Yang Shuxing should know this very well, so he is not worried about being implicated."

"If you draw the fire to him, he may start fires everywhere and disrupt the situation in the steelmaking plant."

Li Xuewu looked at Dong Wexue with some worry. He wanted Dong Wexue to be tougher and take the initiative to take on the role of restraining Li Huaide.

There is no need to stand on the opposite side, as long as you raise more opinions and reserve your opinions on relevant issues, Li Huaide will naturally have some scruples.

What he fears most is that Li Huaide will think that he is easy to talk to and willing to do anything, and then the situation will really deteriorate.

Dong Wenxu and Gu Weijie standing together are definitely the party Li Huaide is afraid of. His words must be better than his own.

Li Xuewu tactfully reminded the teacher not to coddle Li Huaide, but to beat what should be beaten.

You may have to be cautious in the situation of a steel rolling mill, but the teacher is in a steel mill and people are outside the Three Realms and not in the Five Elements. There is nothing to be afraid of.

Just do it!

Now Yang Zongfang is holding his neck and not participating in the situation. Others, Li Xuewu, have not yet taken any measures, and Dong Wenxue is also very uncomfortable.

If the steelmaking plant was unstable, he would not have the confidence to be tough, let alone speak loudly to Li Huaide.

So it seemed like it was a vicious cycle, and he was very worried.

"Then let's talk to Yang Shuxing first. If we can't reach an agreement, let him do the surgery and get his materials first."

Li Xuewu frowned. This matter is really troublesome. He and Li Huaide will return to Beijing tomorrow, and the teacher has not yet settled the matter.

The arrival of Li Huaide put pressure on Dong Wenxue, and even more pressure on others.

It is in this situation that we need to change the ecology and situation of the steelmaking plant so that the work can proceed more smoothly.

Maybe there were too many people coming, and Dong Wenxu spent too much energy on the reception, which delayed the business.

The top leader is sometimes so helpless and unable to do anything at all.

Moreover, reception work is more difficult to do than organizational work, which directly affects the senses above.

Li Xuewu understood Dong Wenxue very well. Since he chose Yang Shuxing, he had to admit it.

After all, it was already night now, and he didn't have time to check on the other people's situations.

Yang Zongfang is shameless. This person's surname is also Yang, and he and Yang Fengshan are from the same ancestor. It's very difficult to deal with.

Dong Wenxue rubbed his sad face vigorously, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I made an appointment with him for tea. Let's go and sit together."

This is called rushing to put the duck on the shelves, so I had to go.

The tea date that Dong Wenxue mentioned was either going to a teahouse, or a club, or in the concierge at the gate of the steelmaking plant.

When the two arrived, Yang Shuxing was already waiting. Seeing Dong Wenxue coming with Li Xuewu, he was surprised, and he was also surprised.

The stove has been turned on in the room, it is not very hot, and the tea is not cold.

When the gate guard saw several leaders from the factory arriving, they all went out to stand guard.

The three of them didn't say a word until they sat down. The scene was a bit silent and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Maybe Yang Shuxing thought that Dong Wexue had asked him to talk alone, so bringing Li Xuewu with him would mean something else.

Li Xuewu intuitively felt Yang Shuxing's dissatisfaction and doubts, but he did not give up talking to him.

Dong Wenxue spoke first, without going around in circles, and directly explained his purpose.

At the same time, he could also see Yang Shuxing's doubts about Li Xuewu's arrival, and he also pointed out Li Xuewu's importance to the present and future of the steelmaking plant.

Li Xuewu took up Dong Wenxu's words and said that he was not here to express his merits, let alone praise his virtues, but to drink tea and meet friends.

His speech is much more artistic than Dong Wenxue's.

First, he talked about the future governance situation of steel mills from his personal point of view, as well as the current direction of changes in the governance ecology of steel rolling mills.

We are all in the same bowl, and no one can jump out of the pit until a certain height.

He patiently talked about the tremendous changes in the steel rolling mill at this stage, and the details were beyond what Yang Shuxing could feel standing in the steel city.

But Yang Shuxing never spoke, and there was no expression of emotion on his face.

Now it seems that Dong Wenxu is begging him to do things.

Li Xuewu knew that he was putting on airs, and was also struggling with his attitude at the meeting a few days ago.

But work is work, and the situation is the situation. The work that should be done will not affect Li Xuewu's choice and judgment. Whether this person can be used depends on Dong Wenxue.

He is sitting here and saying all this to pave the way and endorse Dong Wenxue.

Of course, during the conversation, Li Xuewu also affirmed Yang Shuxing's work achievements in the steelmaking plant, with the purpose of talking about how he would cooperate with Dong Wenxue as production department personnel in the subsequent changes to the management committee.

Yang Shuxing and Yang Fengshan are clan relatives. Now when talking about the management committee and major study activities, the topic of Yang Fengshan cannot be avoided.

Li Xuewu specifically mentioned Yang Fengshan's current situation during the conversation, and also talked about Yang Yuansong's recent series of arrangements.

In particular, Yang Yuansong took advantage of Yang Fengshan's personal influence in his layout. He expressed his concerns about Yang Fengshan's current situation very straightforwardly.

Yang Shuxing's gaze towards Li Xuewu gradually changed his attitude. He had every reason to suspect that Li Xuewu was threatening him.

Now when we talk about Yang Fengshan and Yang Yuansong, aren't we just comparing the two people with the form of steel mills.

Could it be that the two people in front of them wanted to put themselves in the same situation as Yang Fengshan?

He suddenly thought of Li Huaide's purpose of coming here and the work layout that Dong Wenxue needed to carry out.

He is really likely to be selected as a target like "Yang Fengshan".

Li Xuewu saw his emotional changes and clearly told Yang Shuxing that although Yang Fengshan's current situation was not good, as the factory director, his work achievements were obvious to all.

No matter how the situation changes, one day the facts will speak for themselves.

Li Xuewu hoped that Yang Shuxing could understand the current situation and make the right choice.

At the same time, he also hoped that Yang Shuxing could inherit Yang Fengshan's influence and use this to promote peaceful changes in the steel plant management committee.

At work, he certainly hopes that the steelmaking plant will get better and better, and he also hopes that he and Dong Wenxue will work together to make innovations and breakthroughs in the new development and new stage.

The words have been made very clear, and the meaning that should be revealed to him is also very clear. Now it is up to Yang Shuxing to express his position.

However, Yang Shuxing's attitude was not optimistic. He did not seem to buy it and had reservations about Li Xuewu's proposal.

“I don’t know what the leaders want to do, and I don’t know if they have any objections to me or my work.”

Yang Shuxing looked at Li Xuewu, blew a puff of cigarette, and said: "If the steel rolling mill feels that my ability is not enough and my level is not good enough, then let someone replace me."

"I am not greedy for power, nor am I keen on fighting. If I can help it, I don't want to participate in these things."

"You have no choice"

Li Xuewu understood clearly. He didn't want to be tainted by Karma, and he didn't want to give up his position.

I want to eat shit!

You have the word "Yang" on your forehead, you are still the Yang of Yang Fengshan, you are in danger, and yet you still pretend to be aloof like me!

You don’t even know how to die!

Regional differences will infinitely reduce people's political sensitivity. This is natural and objective.

If the head of a branch factory has no connections in the main factory, or has no support, then he is just a piece of bread, and anyone who wants to take advantage of him can get away with it.

But even this piece of material is a last resort in the pond of the steelmaking plant.

If Yang Zongfang doesn't cooperate, he has to find someone who is not involved to do things.

Yin Zhongyao is Li Huaide's person, Mei Housheng is the secretary's person, Dou Changfang has been marginalized, and these three are not allowed to be used.

Li Xuewu knew very well that this was a battle of soft and hard tactics.

He must make Yang Shuxing understand that he sincerely hopes that he can play a role in his position instead of simply being used.

"I don't want to say any more. You all know that if you have any ideas, the leaders are upstairs in the guest house. You can try it."

Li Xuewu straightened up, looked at Yang Shuxing and said, "Everyone who sweeps toilets in the factory knows about the relationship between you and Factory Director Yang. He is cleaning toilets now, and he is not inferior to you."

"I dare to come to see you today not because I value Factory Director Yang, but because I value your ability and contribution to work."

"I hope you can understand that what I am telling you now is not just an opportunity, or a guide."

Li Xuewu said that he had lost his patience and his tone became stronger: "What I am telling you now is a platform to realize and display your personal abilities."

"As I said before, I've told you the situation. If you have ideas and abilities, you can try it yourself."

"Secretary Dong and I don't want to cause trouble in the steelmaking plant. Peaceful change is the only way out for stable development."

Li Xuewu's tone was firm, and his eyes revealed unquestionable belief.

After hearing this, Yang Shuxing's eyes showed complicated emotions.

He was silent for a moment, and then said to Li Xuewu: "Deputy Secretary Li, I understand what you mean. If you don't go to Liangshan, then go to Daoshan, right?"

"How do you understand that it's your business? I'm not in Liangshan, and Secretary Dong doesn't want you to go to Liangshan."

"but"

Li Xuewu looked at Yang Shuxing with raised eyes and said: "The situation is exciting. The current situation is not something you and I can control."

"Someone chooses you to be the fuse. I'm just giving you an idea on how to light a fire without exploding. It's up to you how to choose."

Yang Shuxing looked solemn. This multiple-choice question was not easy to answer, and he had to bet his future on it.

What Li Xuewu said about the future of the steelmaking plant and the broad space for development are all what he said was an ideal state.

To achieve this, or even accomplish peaceful change, someone has to make sacrifices.

Naturally, Dong Wenxue would not end up fighting. He had a transcendent status and advantage. No one in the steel mill would die first, but he would not die first.

Li Xuewu's frankness and affirmation had shaken his mind. Having reached this point, he certainly had no illusions.

Calmness is just his disguise and mask. Did he know that he was going to be pushed out and used as a fuse to explode on the spot?

Yang Shuxing's hands were shaking a little, and from the way he couldn't hide the shaking movements while holding the tea cup, it could be seen that deep down in his heart, there was a battle between heaven and man.

Li Xuewu was satisfied with this. He believed that it would not be difficult for the other party to make the right choice as long as he calmed down and thought about it carefully.

He knows that Yang Shuxing has the ability and experience. As long as he is given enough trust and support, he will definitely be qualified for this important role.

Dong Wenxu drank tea leisurely, as if Li Xuewu had all the words to say and he listened.

Indeed, there were some things that Li Xuewu said that were much more convenient and appropriate than saying them from his mouth.

Especially with Li Xuewu's current position and influence, for Yang Shuxing, he doesn't need a platform.

"I will seriously consider it"

Yang Shuxing looked at Li Xuewu and said solemnly: "Deputy Secretary Li, thank you for what you said today."

Li Xuewu nodded, knowing that Yang Shuxing was giving him face.

But at the same time, he also realized that if Yang Shuxing changed his mind midway or was unable to perform his duties as scheduled, he would not be lenient.

In this era full of competition and change, there is no place for those who are shameless.

"Needless to say the polite words, Secretary Dong is here, the affairs of the steelmaking plant are my business."

Li Xuewu's words were implicit and serious: "The great pass and the long road are really like iron, but now we are crossing them all over again."

"Deputy Director Yang, please put the interests of the steelmaking plant first and the development of the steelmaking plant first."

Li Xuewu stood up and said, "I hope you will consider it carefully and have no regrets."

Yang Shuxing was silent for a few seconds, seeming to weigh the pros and cons.

In the end, he nodded, indicating that he understood what Li Xuewu said.

Li Xuewu knew that this was a difficult start, but he believed that as long as Yang Shuxing could truly intervene in Dong Wenxue's layout, the future of the Steel City Steelmaking Plant would not be chaotic.

Yang Shuxing stood up, shook hands with Li Xuewu, and expressed his gratitude again.

Dong Wexue also stood up and signaled Li Xuewu to explain to Yang Shuxing: "He still has some personal matters to deal with and has to go out at night."

While talking, the two of them sent Li Xuewu out together. Under the watchful eyes of the factory guards, they kept sending Li Xuewu into the jeep.

The car belonged to Dong Wenxue, who lived in the factory, so it was suitable for Li Xuewu to borrow it.

The driver knew where Li Xuewu was going, so he sent him directly to the villa area without asking any questions.

After getting off the car and seeing off the jeep, Li Xuewu entered the hospital.

From the entrance of the courtyard, I saw the lights on in the living room. At this time, it seemed that I was really waiting for my return.

Of course it was Sister Zhou who was waiting for him, but it was not just Sister Zhou, but also Wen San'er, and Zhang Wanhe, whose eyes were blood red.

Zhou Changli was still standing at the door, grinning and staring like a door god.

Zhou Yamei took Li Xuewu into the house and whispered in the hall that the three of them had been waiting here all night.

Li Xuewu patted Sister Zhou and motioned for her to take Fu Zhidong upstairs.

Fu Zhidong, who was sitting on the stairs waiting for his uncle, looked at him helplessly and wanted to continue waiting, but Zhou Yamei picked him up and coaxed him upstairs.

Li Xuewu patted Zhou Changli on the shoulder and walked into the living room. Wen Saner stood up, but Zhang Wanhe did not. He just sat on the sofa and stared at him.

"Where's Biaozi?"

Li Xuewu ignored him, made himself a cup of tea, and asked Wen San'er something.

Wen San'er glanced at Zhang Wanhe and then replied: "I'm at the dock. There are a lot of things today and I'm still dealing with them."

"Take your time, Jicheng has already taken care of it, no need to worry."

Li Xuewu sat on the sofa with a teacup in his hand, and said such straightforward words that made Zhang Wanhe's eyes split with tears.

Wen San'er didn't know how to answer this question. He looked at Li Xuewu and sat down.

"Xilin is injured. She was stabbed in the stomach and can't get off the kang."

Li Xuewu's voice was very cold, and he could not hide his tiredness when he said: "I will ask Qiangzi to provide support over there for a while, and I will come back after a while when the situation in Jicheng becomes stable."

"Oh, right"

In the quiet living room, the two silent people, and the depressing atmosphere, Li Xuewu seemed to be talking to himself.

As if he suddenly remembered something, he said to Wen San'er: "Uncle San has something you need to do quickly."

"Over there with the Hadron object, if you have time, please ask Third Aunt Shengsheng and Biaozi's wife to come over."

As he spoke, he gestured to the other party and said: "We are uncles and eldest brothers, so we have to help with this. After all, we are our own people."

It was these words that made Zhang Wanhe's face turn white and blue, red and green.

"You pick out a house from what we have and pack it up and give it to him."

These properties were all given to Li Xuewu by this old man from Guandong. They were nothing good, just private houses.

Li Xuewu gestured to the other side of the stairs and said: "I brought a pair of watches from the capital. They are at Sister Zhou's place. You can ask someone to pick them up later."

After saying that, he waved his hand and said: "When the time comes, I will send it as a gift, and it will be considered a part of my heart."

"Marriage is a big deal, don't be stingy, and don't let Qiangzi work hard with me in vain..."

"Master!"

Zhang Wanhe couldn't listen anymore. He looked at Li Xuewu with red eyes, his voice burst out from his throat, and he asked angrily: "You want my life, can't you? You want my life, can't you just say it!"

"Where do you start talking about this?!"

Li Xuewu looked at him with squinted eyes and asked: "When did I say I wanted to kill you? It belongs to my shopkeeper Zhang Da!"

"I still expect you to help me expand my territory. As for the Patriarch, we still have a lot of big things to do. How can we live and die?"

Li Xuewu just looked at him, and said to Zhang Wanhe in a mocking tone: "If you say so, what have I become? Didn't you trap me into injustice?"

"Isn't that right, third uncle?"

Zhang Wanhe's breathing became rapid, and his face turned frighteningly red, as if he was about to jump up and eat someone at any time.

Li Xuewu, however, was not afraid of this. He picked up the teacup and sipped the tea slowly.

Wen San'er was sitting between the two of them. He was extremely scared at the moment, don't expect him to get really fucked and bleed all over him again.

Biaozi came here last night when he was taking people to do things.

Maybe there was a kid who knew something was going to happen, so he took the money bag and hid without seeing the strong man.

Biaozi carried the account book and searched for him for most of the night, and it was not until about eleven o'clock at night that he was pulled out of the earthen kiln.

The temperature dropped significantly last night and the wind was strong. They were already freezing, but it was even colder when they returned to the dock.

The boiling water sitting on the stove was reserved for them to wash their faces and soak their feet. Unexpectedly, Biaozi used it to pour water on his "friend".

It made the man roar in the middle of the night, making Zhang Xinmin cry in fear, and he also made Fei Shanying complain.

Biaozi is still working tonight. He has not even finished elementary school. He is holding a book of accounts and acting as the king of hell to collect debts.

Take over the Steel City and start with collecting debts!

He couldn't afford to offend this bastard nephew, and he was afraid of Fei Shanying's complaints, so he could only follow Zhang Wanhe here.

He felt that both of them were cultural and social people, so they wouldn't do anything bloody!

But looking at the scene in front of me, it's not that there's blood, it's like there's going to be bang bang bang!

Li Xuewu asked him, but he didn't dare to answer a word, for fear that he would answer the wrong question and become the last force to pull the trigger.

Facing Li Xuewu and Zhang Wanhe, he just wanted to be a quiet background. Like Zhou Changli, it was best not to be stained with blood.

Zhang Wanhe gasped for a while, and then asked in a hoarse voice: "Why? I, Lao Zhang, haven't done enough. You have to kill them all to be satisfied?"

"No, it's not not enough, it's just wrong."

Li Xuewu put down his tea cup, shook his finger, looked at Zhang Wanhe and said seriously: "The construction of the Dongfeng fleet is obvious to all, and I will not deny your hard work."

"But Steel City is a Steel City, Jicheng is different."

"Those who work in Jicheng don't need to express their loyalty to me, and I don't need to either."

"It doesn't matter who they work under, but you can't play tricks with me, and you dare to threaten my people!"

"Use the knife with me, who gave you the courage!"

Li Xuewu looked at Zhang Wanhe with a gloomy expression and asked: "Is it the old, weak, sick and disabled people on the mountain, or the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the city?"

"Killing you is easy!"

"I didn't even need to do it myself to clear out the bandits on the mountain. Do you believe it or not?!"

Zhang Wanhe looked at Li Xuewu, his lips trembling. He finally knew how people standing in the sun did things.

Their mouths are the measuring stick. If they say you are a bandit, you will die. If they say you are a citizen, you will live.

Li Xuewu's meaning went straight to his heart, telling him that it was his fault whether he was a citizen or a bandit.

Those who dare to use the knife are bandits, and their families are also guilty.

Born into sin, sin is inherent in it.

Zhang Wanhe knew that the biggest incentive for Li Xuewu to choose to fight violence with violence, to destroy the stability of the steel city's trade, and to eliminate himself even if he smashed Jicheng's plates, was that knife.

He didn't have to explain, he couldn't say anything to defend himself. What he said at that time was to teach him a lesson, but he didn't expect that the people under him would habitually understand it as a lesson.

But at the beginning, he really didn't think about seeing blood, lighting the house on fire, and causing an accident, right?

It doesn’t matter if you get hit by a truck when you go out!

You can’t even pretend!
