Chapter 761 Unannounced visit to the steel plant
The steel factory has two hours off for lunch. Usually, old workers in the factory who have had lunch will gather together to chat and fuck, and tell some stories that factories like to watch.
In the past few days, various topics about open and secret struggles between factory directors and deputy factory directors have spread from them. The deputy factory director wants to retaliate against the factory director, and the factory director has an affair with a certain woman has become their topic of conversation after dinner.
"Old Chen, have you seen that you haven't seen the factory director these days. If you want me to see, he and the deputy factory director will definitely fight to the death." A middle-aged man in blue work clothes smiled at the man who was slightly older than him and said, "If the senior management fights, they don't know if it will affect us."
The old worker named Lao Chen shook his head and said, "No, they fight them. We pay monthly wages and go to check out every month when it's time to get up. We can't do anything about it. Also, we can just talk about this here. Don't go out and talk nonsense. If the superiors pursue it, you will have to take care of it."
Another old foreman nodded and said, "Old Chen is right. I don't know what the news came from. It's better to say less without any basis, so as not to cause trouble."
The man smiled angrily and said, "Are we a good relationship? We're just chatting. Don't sell me."
Old Chen smiled and shook his head, smoking a cigarette hard in his mouth. He looked very addicted to smoking. He couldn't smoke during working hours, so he could only wait for a few more to take a break. "However, the atmosphere in the factory has been a little wrong in recent days. The more we are like this, the more we should perform well, otherwise the leader might chase someone out of trouble."
"Then let's not chat here. It's too conspicuous. Let's go back to the dormitory for lunch." One of them stood up, patted the dust on his butt, and said with a smile.
Several people stood up and made an appointment to walk towards the dormitory. Only the middle-aged man named Lao Chen did not follow them and turned his head to Yao Ze not far away and said, "I just listened to him for a long time. What do you want to ask?"
Yao Ze walked over to Lao Chen happily, took out a cigarette and handed it to Lao Chen, but Lao Chen didn't answer and continued to ask, "You are not an employee in our factory, right? You look very good."
Yao Ze took back his cigarette and said with a smile: "I just came here. I've only been a few days ago. I'm a college intern."
"Oh, no wonder, you belong to that factory?" Old Chen asked Yao Ze with a smile.
Yao Ze didn't know which school factory there was, so he casually pointed to a factory directly opposite him and smiled and said, "That factory."
"Oh." Old Chen nodded, and then smiled, "I saw you listening very well just now. Young people should not be so gossipy, otherwise it would not be a good thing. You just don't understand a lot of things in society, especially in such places, you can only be low-key."
Yao Ze smiled and nodded and said yes.
Lao Chen instructed: "Don't say anything casually when I heard just now. Everyone is just talking and playing, don't take it seriously, do you know?"
Seeing that Old Chen was sniffing, Yao Ze seemed to be about to get smoking again, so he handed Old Chen a cigarette again. This time he was willing to take the cigarette. He looked at the Huanghe Tower in his hand, looked at Yao Ze curiously, and said, "At such a high-level, a rich second generation, right?"
Yao Ze smiled bitterly and said, "The family is still wealthy."
"No wonder." Old Chen nodded, then lit a cigarette and started smoking.
Yao Ze asked with a smile: "Master, what's your surname?"
Old Chen said: "My name is Chen Dafu, just call me Old Chen."
Yao Ze waved his hand and said, "That's not true. It's so rude. I'd better call you Master Chen. By the way, Master Chen, I've just been to the factory for a few days and I'm not very clear about the matter here. Can you introduce me to the situation of this steel plant?"
Old Chen said confidently: "You are asking the right person. I have been here for almost ten years. It can be said that no one knows this place better than me. But what do you want to know?"
Yao Ze smiled angrily and said, "If you want to stay here, of course you have to understand the leader. Tell me what the leaders here are, what are the taboos they have."
Seeing that Yao Ze looked like a student, although he was dressed well, he had a pretty face and was not wary of Yao Ze. After looking around, he said to Yao Ze: "It is not convenient to chat here. Come with me to the dormitory. Let's chat slowly there."
Yao Ze quickly smiled and nodded and followed Lao Chen to his dormitory. Only then did Old Chen notice Xiang Chengdong who was following Yao Ze not far or near, and pointed at Xiang Chengdong and asked, "Who is he?"
Yao Ze smiled and said, "This is my college classmate, who is in the same factory as me, and we came in together."
Old Chen opened the door of the dormitory, and Yao Ze and Xiang Chengdong followed in.
The dormitory is very simple, with only two upper and lower beds like a university dormitory, as well as a few chairs. Four people lived in one dormitory. When Yao Ze saw that the other three were not there, he asked where these people went.
Old Chen smiled and explained that those guys like to play mahjong and would play cards for two hours every day while they were taking a break at noon.
Yao Ze nodded, sat on the bed, then handed Lao Chen a cigarette, and said, "I heard about the factory manager just now. Is this matter highly credible?"
Old Chen lit the cigarette and said angrily: "You guys just took it. Why do you do this kind of thing? Are you looking for trouble? Don't ask around."
Yao Ze smiled and said, "I'm just curious. Of course, I'm asking about this kind of thing to have a clue in my heart. After all, I'm here. If I don't understand anything, it's easy to suffer. Master Chen, just tell me. I'll invite you to drink when I have time."
Old Chen thought Yao Ze had a good temperament and respected him very much. He thought this young man was a good person, so it would be okay to talk about it. He turned his head and looked at the door, and then smiled at Xiang Chengdong beside Yao Ze, saying, "Please close the door tightly."
Nodded to Chengdong, got up and locked the door of the house from inside.
Old Chen then sighed and said, "Actually, you don't know that the factory director and the deputy factory director have already accumulated deep resentment and dislike each other. If our current factory director had not used some tricks to criticize the current deputy factory director, maybe the current deputy factory director would be the factory director, so the two have always had this irrelevant conflict. As for some recent rumors, there is no real evidence. The words were indeed spread from the deputy factory director's mouth, but who knows whether he was deliberately spreading rumors?"
Yao Ze nodded and said, "Even if the factory manager wants to find a mistress, it should not be discovered by the factory manager so easily. I think this matter should be the angry words of the deputy factory manager."
"Not necessarily." Old Chen waved his hand, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, twisted it with his toes, and then said: "If the deputy factory director does not have a handle in his hands, he dares to be so arrogant? Moreover, the most strange thing is that the deputy factory director Xu Dagui said that the factory director had a mistress, but the factory director chose to remain silent. And he has been deliberately avoiding Xu Dagui these days. Is it strange that you said this is strange? It must be that the factory director is a little guilty."
"I heard that the factory director's mistress is the wife of the factory director's wife?" Yao Ze asked tentatively.
Old Chen nodded and said, "It's just a rumor, but it's really possible. The wife of the workshop director Wei Mingda is indeed quite beautiful. It's not impossible to hook up with the factory director. Moreover, Wei Mingda is honest and not good at expressing himself. It was strange that everyone was able to become the workshop director at that time. Judging from the current rumors, it might be Wei Mingda who used his wife's beauty to hook up with the factory director Li Daye and asked his wife to help him find the position of director."
Seeing Yao Ze smile without saying a word, Old Chen grinned, revealing Huang Cancan's teeth, and squinted his eyes and said, "Have you ever seen Wei Mingda's wife?"
Yao Ze shook his head in confusion and said, "I haven't seen it before, why?"
Old Chen said with an inappropriate expression: "He is pretty and every time he dresses up, why do you think he is so beautiful when he works in the factory? Now it seems that it must be to please Director Li Daye. That woman has a clever way of seducing men. The young man in our factory many years ago was fascinated by her. Don't follow their footsteps."
Yao Ze smiled and shook his head and said: No, I have a girlfriend."
Old Chen said angrily: "How can you know that you haven't seen her yet? This woman is born to look tempting men. You have thoughts about her when you see her."
"..." Yao Ze smiled helplessly, then changed the topic and continued to inquire: "Does the factory leaders have any corruption and bribery?"
Old Chen said angrily: "Do you think that leader will be corrupt? It's just a little."
Yao Ze said seriously: "Master Chen said this very absolutely. No matter what the matter or the person is, there is no absolute good or bad. Leading cadres are not all corrupt in their thoughts. Many leading cadres are still dedicated to finding the people. It is normal for a small number of bad apples to count."
"You kid's skills in speaking official language are all the same, and you have the potential to be an official." He smiled jokingly, and Old Chen continued: "The annual income of the steel mill is extremely high. We, the lower-level workers, must not know whether the senior management embezzles whether the senior management embezzles or not. Even if it is necessary to embezzle some, it is difficult to get out of it. The steel mill is so intimidating that there are too many accounts in every step. Who can find out if it is deducted at that link? It is absolutely impossible for those senior management to be corruption. Let's talk about the factory director. His daughter was sent to study abroad by him a few years ago. Think about it, just his little salary can support her daughter to go to a country like the United States with high consumption? He publicized to the outside world that his daughter went abroad to get paid for their relatives. Such things are all nonsense when thinking about it."
I chatted with Lao Chen for two hours in the afternoon. Yao Ze also knew about the general situation of the steel plant. When Lao Chen was about to start construction, Yao Ze stood up and said goodbye.
Old Chen asked Yao Ze: "Who is the worker who took you to internship? I'll say hello to you and let him teach you more."
Yao Ze quickly waved his hand and smiled, "No need to bother you. I've asked for leave in the afternoon. There are still some things that need to be dealt with, so let's leave first." Without waiting for Old Chen to speak, he winked at Cheng Dong. The two of them quickly walked out of Old Chen's dormitory, leaving Old Chen with a puzzled look on his face.
