Chapter 90 Guishan Arrives at Two Shareholders' Houses
Yuan Guishan arrived outside Qianjin Paper Factory early in the morning. He touched his trouser pockets and found out that he didn’t bring the key. He thought that luckily he just came to have a look and didn’t go in to do business. The omens are not good.He walked along the highway, and when he arrived at the gate of Qianghua Paper Factory, he looked through the fence and iron gate. There was no one inside, and work probably hadn't started either.

Yuan Guishan continued to walk forward and arrived at the Qinxi Bridge in a while.This is the place where the Qinxi River and the Qingjiang River meet. Here, the Qingjiang River is not as exposed as the river bed in front of Zhangshuwan. The river is full of water flowing slowly eastward.He looked under the Qinxi Bridge. The water in the center of the river with flowing water was clearer, while the water on both sides of the river was turbid and darker.On the pier of the Qinxi Bridge, there is a section of gray-black stains of at least one meter long, indicating that the water level of the Qingjiang River has dropped by more than one meter in the past two months.

Yuan Guishan stood by the stream for a while, without crossing the bridge, turned and walked to the ecological wetland along the Qinxi River to the right.The wetland was about a hundred meters away from the bridge, and the terrain was relatively high. He reached the gentle slope of the wetland and climbed up.Most of the wetlands are covered with water, and there are also raised small areas without water. Some plants grow unevenly in the water and those raised areas. Most of these plants are still green, and some are already withered and yellow. Judging by their size, these plants should be very vigorous during the growing season.

Yuan Guishan walked along the wetland to the paper factory, and soon arrived at the pumping room of Qianghua Paper Factory. Two thick outlet pipes were laid from the pumping room to the ecological wetland. Judging from the traces of the water outlet, it was found years ago. A lot of waste water was pumped to the ecological wetland.He looked at the drainage channel that used to lead directly to Qinxi from Qianghua Paper Factory. The drainage channel was only forty meters away from his Qianjin Paper Factory, but this mere tens of meters was the distance from the ground to the sky.

Yuan Guishan sighed and shook his head.

After returning home, the family members had finished their meals and left. The dining table in the kitchen was cleaned up. Yuan Guishan yelled twice, and Liu Meihui came out of the room, bringing food out of the steamer on the stove. Put it on the table and mutter: "Old man Shan, don't you know that you want to eat? You will come back to eat when it's time for dinner! Only these dishes are left for you, you can eat slowly!"

After finishing speaking, he sat down and watched Yuan Guishan eat.

Yuan Guishan glared at her and said, "What's so interesting about my meal? Go do your business!"

Liu Meihui said: "Watch you eat? What a joke! I'm looking at the bowl in your hand! I'm going to wash the dishes for you after dinner, you know?"

Yuan Guishan buried his head in his meal and didn't speak.

Liu Meihui suddenly said: "Old man Shan, do you know? Yesterday Qingqing and Wuhua brought cigarettes and alcohol to Dongming and his aunt's house."

Yuan Guishan turned his head and asked, "Yesterday? What did you do?"

Liu Meihui nodded, "It was yesterday! The seventh day of the lunar new year! I don't know, and I won't tell Wuhua if I ask."

"How do you know?"

"They went out with cigarettes and alcohol in the morning, and gave Lele to me. I asked them where they were going. Wuhua said they were going to Uncle Dongming's house. They also went out with cigarettes and alcohol in the afternoon. They took Lele with them. Wuhua said he was going to his aunt's house."

Yuan Guishan didn't ask any more questions, he thought for a while, and after eating, he went out to Yuan Feng's house in Jiangwan.

The weather was fine and the temperature was much higher than normal. He Yihai, Yuan Feng and He Xuhui were basking in the sun outside.Seeing Yuan Guishan coming, the family of three hurriedly got up and greeted with smiles.

"Brother Shan, good morning!"

"uncle!"

"Brother, it's so early! Brother, this is the first time you have come to our house this year, and you will go back after eating here."

"Feng, I don't eat, I have something else to do." Yuan Guishan replied with a smile, then turned to look at He Yihai, "Yihai, let's go inside, I want to ask something."

He Yihai followed Yuan Guishan into the room, found a chair and sat down.Yuan Feng followed in, brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Yuan Guishan, and brought out some peanut non-staple food to entertain.

Yuan Guishan asked: "Wuhua and Qinglian came yesterday?"

He Yihai replied: "Here we are."

"What are they going to do?"

"Didn't do anything. Qinglian also talked about some things about the operation of Jinjin Paper Mill, and asked me what I think."

Yuan Feng took the words and said: "Brother, after Wuhua Qingqing and the others left, I have been thinking about a question."

Yuan Guishan asked, "Feng, what's the problem?"

"Qingqing said before Chinese New Year that she would no longer talk about the operation and management of Jinjin Paper Mill. She said it in front of her mother, Wuhua and me. Why did she talk about it yesterday? And yesterday Qingqing talked more More detailed, right?"

He Yihai nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Shan."

Yuan Feng continued: "Sister Qingqing was not like this before, and she won't change what she promised. So after they left yesterday, I thought, what happened? Sister Qingqing's behavior is wrong!"

Yuan Guishan's expression turned serious after hearing this.

Yuan Feng thought for a while, looked at Yuan Guishan, and said, "Could it be that this girl really wants to run a paper factory?"

He Yihai pushed Yuan Feng and said, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Yuan Feng said, "I'm guessing too."

He Yihai turned his head to look at Yuan Guishan, "Brother Shan, is Dongming home for Chinese New Year yet?"

Yuan Guishan looked up at He Yihai and said, "Yihai, you will follow me to Dongming's house and talk to him."

He Yihai was a little surprised, and asked, "You haven't talked about it this year? Dongming still has an opinion? This is too inappropriate!"

Yuan Guishan said: "He came to my house to pay New Year's greetings on the third day of junior high school, and I also went to his house to pay New Year's greetings. It's just that I didn't talk about the paper factory. Don't blame him, I had a lot of things that day."

He Yihai said: "Brother Shan, it's normal to have different opinions. Shall we go?"

Yuan Guishan stood up, nodded to Yuan Feng, and said, "Let's go, Yihai."

When the two came to Zuo Dongming's house, Zuo Dongming and his wife were sitting on the sofa in the main room watching TV. Seeing them coming, Zuo Dongming sat up and asked Ou Qiaoling to make tea, then got up and turned off the TV.Ou Qiaoling made tea and served it, closed the door and went out.

Zuo Dongming smiled and got up and took the fruit, peanuts and non-staple food on the coffee table for the two of them to eat, and then asked, "Secretary Yuan, brother Yihai, what's the matter?"

Yuan Guishan signaled to put it down, and said with a smile: "Dongming, we haven't discussed the paper mill this year. Yihai and I just want us to discuss together how the Qianjin Paper Mill should operate this year."

Zuo Dongming looked at He Yihai.He Yihai smiled and nodded, "Yes, Dongming."

Zuo Dongming smiled and said, "Actually, on the third day of junior high school, I went to your house to celebrate the New Year with Brother Guishan, so I wanted to talk to you. You had a lot of things to do that day, so I came out."

He Yihai said: "Today is only the eighth day of the lunar new year, it's still early!"

Yuan Guishan said with a smile: "Stop talking politely. Dongming, Yihai, talk to the two of you, what will the paper factory do?"

He Yihai said: "Oh, Brother Shan, didn't you embarrass me? I think it's still the same as last year."

Zuo Dongming didn't speak for a long time.

He Yihai said: "Dongming, just talk about it!"

Zuo Dongming looked at Yuan Guishan and said, "Brother Guishan, Brother Yihai, I just spoke some straight words for the benefit of the paper mill. Today you two are here and want to hear some truths. Well, I Just say it all, Brother Guishan, don’t make any comments after hearing it. In these paper mills in Wushan, we don’t compare with Mrs. Sun, and the boss of Qiang Hua doesn’t care about the paper mill now. Bi, other factories are similar to ours, can they be compared? How is it? Jinjin Paper Factory is the worst factory! I talked with the accountants of Xingxin and Huajun, and the dividends of their shareholders have been two times more than ours in recent years. [-] each. Like our Qianjin paper mill, we can’t produce in the dry season! Brother Guishan, you are the secretary of the village party committee, you have to listen to the government. The paper mill stopped! All these reasons are not the worst ones!"

He Yihai kept looking at Yuan Guishan while listening, and after Zuo Dongming finished speaking, He Yihai said: "Dongming, there is no way to change these things! You know, brother Shan wants to change too, and we do too. There is no way, there is no way to do these things!"

Yuan Guishan said: "Yihai, don't explain, these are facts. It's not me and you, Dongming won't say that, he is doing it for the betterment of the paper factory. Dongming, you continue to talk."

Zuo Dongming's expression improved a lot after hearing this, and he nodded, "It's Brother Guishan! If you want to say something, it's something you said before. You know, and Brother Yihai also knows, some thoughts and suggestions of your daughter-in-law Qinglian Very good! Can we try it in the production of our paper mill this year?"

Yuan Guishan asked, "Dongming, did Qinglian and Wuhua come to your house?"

"coming."

"What did they say?"

"Wuhua didn't say anything. Sister Qinglian said what she wrote in the report, but in more detail."

"Didn't you talk about anything else?"

"No."

Yuan Guishan smiled and said: "Qinglian Wuhua and the others are very concerned about the paper mill. After all, they are my son and daughter-in-law. There are indeed some problems in the operation of the paper mill. Especially Qinglian, I'm afraid I won't listen to her. Opinions, I’m looking for you to do work again. Today I’d like to tell you two, in the operation of our paper mill this year, Qinglian’s suggestions that are useful to us will definitely be taken into consideration.”

After hearing this, Zuo Dongming stood up from the sofa and said, "Brother Guishan, really? Ren Zhijian told me that if we go to the paper factory and listen to the advice of one or two green lotuses, the annual increase will be [-], [-], tens of thousands. There is no problem with Wan's profit!"

Yuan Guishan said with a smile: "Whether it is useful or not is still something on paper, and it will be judged after it is put into production. But no matter what, you have to try it. Dongming and Yihai, you two can rest assured."

At this moment, Ou Qiaoling came in. Seeing that the three of them were chatting happily, he said happily: "Secretary Yuan, brother Yihai, my family Dongming hasn't laughed like this for more than a month. Today is the eighth day of the first lunar month. Eat at my house!"

He Yihai didn't speak, and looked at Yuan Guishan with a smile.

Yuan Guishan smiled and said, "Qiaoling, I won't eat anymore. I've made an appointment with Mayor Jiang from the government to discuss some matters. It's almost eleven o'clock now, so I have to leave immediately."

He Yihai smiled and said, "I won't eat it either, next time, I have plenty of time."

After seeing off Yuan Guishan and He Yihai, Zuo Dongming turned on the TV and sat on the sofa to watch it.Ou Qiaoling started cooking, and the food was ready before twelve o'clock.At this time, the phone at home also rang, and it was Jiang Huaimin calling, asking him to go to the Lequn Building at three o'clock in the afternoon to drive forward to the shareholders' meeting of the paper factory.
