The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

Qin Huairu said with a smile: "I don't have time to do this. I will just come in and stay for a while. I will have to go to the courtyard to wash his sheets later."

Lou Xiao'e encouraged: "Sister Qin, what do you want? I have time, I will help you build it first, and then you can change it yourself during the final decoration. It won't take much time."

Qin Huairu's eyes brightened a little, and she was quite moved. A house alone was more suitable for storing her personal belongings, if nothing else.

Li Ming persuaded him at the right time: "You don't have to build here. There are seas of flowers, bamboo forests, peach orchards, hot pools, and there are many other places where you can build. Or you can build a small house on the living platform."

Qin Huairu smiled and agreed, "Then I will build one too."

"Is mine built over there in Taoyuan? I can still visit Xiao'e and visit each other in the future."

Lou Xiao'e said with a smile: "Sitting in the peach blossom forest and admiring the peach blossoms is also a beautiful thing."

Li Ming added: "Then I have to get you bicycles. With bicycles, you two don't have to walk for more than half an hour."

Lou Xiao'e has more ideas, "I'll also give Sister Qin the record player."

"No problem. You two make a list and I'll go find someone to get those tickets."

Speaking of this matter, Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu were very interested, and they went to discuss it as if they were decorating their own new house.

Li Ming did not participate in the discussion between the two of them, and he was asking for trouble by taking too much care.

In the morning, he and Lou Xiaoe drew a sketch of the cabin. He had to cut the wood before he could start construction.

Although it is a small wooden house, the amount of work is actually not small at all. Whether it is mortise and tenon joints or nails, it is a troublesome thing. This is because he has a lot of good wood.

This morning, he regretted agreeing to build a cabin. He felt it was more troublesome than laying bricks to build a house.

Lou Xiao'e really wanted to build a log cabin with her own hands. He certainly couldn't beat her. At worst, he would build it slowly.

Qin Huairu is still simple. She plans to build a small southern villa like Li Ming.

He will not be short of steel bars, cement, and red bricks, it is very easy.

He estimated that Qin Huairu's Taoyuan villa had been built, but Lou Xiao'e's oasis cabin might not have been built yet.

Qin Huairu came in and out, and a busy Sunday for Li Ming and the others passed like this.

Nowadays.

It's also a wonderful day in the outside world.

The symposium that started on September 9th will continue today and will continue until the 17th.

If a symposium is held for several days in a row, it must be something big.

From September 9 to September 23, it was a turning point.

Many temporary organizing committees that were 'basically like this' can no longer be carried out and are constantly changing their names.

The group of Zhang Haiyang and Brother Luo Yun who are 'basically like this' have begun to show signs of decline.

Correspondingly, Yan Jiefang's group of people who "should be like this" began to grow stronger and stronger.

During this more than a week.

The changes at the staff building site of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill are also not small.

Li Ming resigned as leader of the engineering construction team.

Deputy Team Leader Qiu knew the news early and was successfully promoted to team leader. He even went to Courtyard No. 95 to find Li Ming to express his gratitude.

Xiao Wei from the staff building construction site was transferred to the security department and was still responsible for publicity work.

Thursday, November 9.

Security department downstairs.

A group of security personnel gathered around to watch Xiao Wei post a blackboard report.

Recently, the whole country is learning from the advanced deeds of the '32111 Drilling Team'.

Naturally, the publicity work of the Security Section cannot be left behind.

"Xiao Wei, your painting is really good. You have captured the fearless spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice."

"It's much better than what the people from the publicity department in the factory painted."

"The people in the Propaganda Department don't have this kind of momentum."

"If there are people fighting today, let them come here for examination and have their brains cleaned."

The deeds of the 32111 drilling team are very touching.

When Li Ming saw advanced deeds the day before yesterday, his eyes were wet and he was deeply touched.

Before, he felt that he had done a lot for everyone, and he felt a little proud.

After seeing other people's choices, he felt ashamed.

Three months ago, at 3 a.m. on June 6, the junction of Hejiang and Jiangjin.

The 32111 drilling team was doing the last work before putting into production. When the well was closed for pressure measurement and preparing for the blowout test, due to the sudden rise in gas well pressure, a seamless steel pipe for the gas outlet from the wellhead suddenly burst and exploded with a "bang".

The natural gas flow with a pressure of more than 170 atmospheres rolled up rocks and soil, destroying everything in its path. It also broke through the explosion-proof light bulb under the drill floor. A raging fire suddenly rose into the sky, forming a sea of ​​​​fire more than 50 meters wide and 30 meters high. .

The wellhead and diesel engine room were instantly engulfed in flames. The 40-meter-high steel derrick was burned down within 5 minutes. The diesel engine was melted into iron weights. The rocks on the hillside dozens of meters away were burned red. The surrounding trees were turned into charcoal. For 20 miles, Explosions can be heard outside, and blazing fire can be seen 40 miles away. The entire natural gas field is in danger of being destroyed.

Employees at the scene rushed into the sea of ​​​​fire one by one and ran towards the mouth of the fire.

If you rush into a fire scene in this situation, you will at least be severely burned, but you just rush in without hesitation.

Six people including Zhang Yongqing, Wang Ping, Luo Huatai, Wu Zhongqi, Wang Zumin, and Deng Muquan died, and 6 others suffered burns.

Not one or two people, but a large group of people doing this.

The 32111 drilling team made reports successively at the Beijing Stadium and other places, and tens of thousands of people listened to the report.

In the past two days, Li Ming has been very active at work.

With such an environment, it is not surprising that role models continue to emerge.

He had a small blackboard set up next to the small building of the Security Department, and arranged for Xiao Wei to imitate famous works and draw some propaganda pictures to make the propaganda text more vivid.

Judging from the reactions of the security officers who were watching, the effect was pretty good.

Li Ming himself is not here in the security department. As a buyer, he is watching people making dumplings in the third cafeteria.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Because the National Day is coming soon, in addition to vegetables, the supply of various materials in the capital is more abundant than in early September. Materials mobilized from various provinces are being continuously transported by train.

However, it is still difficult for factories in the capital to distribute extra supplies to their employees for a happy holiday.

With more than 10 new visitors coming from other places every day, chickens, ducks, fish and meat can only guarantee a tight supply, with no possibility of surplus.

Chicken, duck, fish and meat, the second and third departments of the steel rolling mill procurement department tried their best to do this, but failed to do so.

It would be inappropriate not to hand out something during the holidays. The new Director Li already attaches great importance to logistics work.

Finally, Li Ming made a suggestion, just make dumplings. If you divide the meat, you won't be able to divide much, but if you divide the dumplings, you can divide a lot.

The factory agreed to the plan.

Because materials such as flour are easy to assemble, there is no shortage of staple foods such as flour in the capital.

Moreover, in Beijing at this time, the waste of staple food was very common and serious.

At the food supply point for foreign visitors, there are large buckets full of steamed buns and steamed buns thrown away every day.

For example, on November 11, the Municipal Grain Bureau reported that a building in Chaoyang collected more than 2 kilograms of dried steamed buns that could not be eaten and were thrown away.

A snack bar in Chengxi District suffered a loss of more than 8000 kilograms of grain.Subjective not cherishing is one thing;

It is also objectively true that the workmanship is rough and the food produced is of poor quality, and most people from the south do not like to eat it.

(=.=!! This is not my opinion, that’s what is written in the report)
Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill organized a group of female employees to make dumplings in several canteens. This process is definitely no problem.

When I get off work in the afternoon, each person carries a basket of dumplings home, which still looks a bit festive.

The entrance to the third canteen.

The director of the cafeteria smiled and said, "Section Chief Li has a lot of ideas. During this holiday, when everyone was helpless, you just solved it casually."

Li Ming laughed and said modestly: "We didn't do a good job in procurement, so we can only use this flexible method to deal with it first."

"Our factory has taken over the task of supplying staple food. Director, you are extremely busy, otherwise you would have come up with such a simple solution long ago."

Flower sedan chairs carry people.

The canteen director took Li Ming's cigarette and said, "I've been really busy this month. You quit working in the staff building and don't have to build a mat tent anymore. You are freed from this trouble."

Li Ming complained: "I am too busy with the security department. We have arrested more than one or two groups of people who want to climb over the wall and enter our factory in the past two days."

The director of the cafeteria didn't even light a cigarette, and said in surprise: "Have they not been blocking the door all the time? Why are they starting to climb over the wall now?"

If you climb over the wall, no one can stop you.

However, Li Ming was an exception. He could find out where someone was gathering outside the wall in which direction.

He arranged for security personnel to carry several loudspeakers and ride bicycles to shout a few times, using the empty city strategy to scare the people outside.

Li Ming did not explain directly to the canteen director, but instead talked about other things, "I guess you have also heard that a group of people were beaten outside the west gate of our factory a few days ago, and they were beaten quite badly."

"I heard about this."

"I checked and found that it was someone from the steel factory next door who did it. Everyone originally submitted the complaint, but it was because of the chaos in their steel factory. Now it has become unruly."

The director of the cafeteria lit up a cigarette and said, "The shit basin is on our factory's head. We need to talk to the people from their steel factory and talk it through."

"The people who were beaten know the whole story, but people outside don't know the truth. But if we vigorously refute the rumors, it will appear as if we are afraid."

"Just admit it like this? That's not a problem, and your security department will also have a headache."

"I can't stop it anymore. I'm going to write a report and give it to Director Li. Our factory takes the initiative to invite some people to visit, communicate and provide guidance."

The director of the cafeteria stopped smoking and said, "Let those people enter our factory, and the factory will be in chaos!"

Li Ming spread his hands and said, "What can we do? The walls of our factory are so long that we can't even see them. Let them take a look at our activities, learning, and production."

"Especially for parts processing involving confidentiality, let those people know that we have an important mission."

“Treat them well with good food and drinks, and then send them out with gifts.”

The canteen director reminded: "Will this affect the confidentiality work? Someone will cause trouble for you."

"Other messy units have no longer kept secrets, and all the confidential information has been leaked."

"It seems so. Our superiors, the Metallurgical Department, even the building has been entered."

"So it shouldn't be a big problem to invite some people into the factory. There are actually no secrets that need to be kept secret now."

Li Ming then pointed to the wall of the cafeteria, "It's best to clean the walls of your cafeteria and leave big letters on them."

The director of the cafeteria smiled and thanked: "I asked you to tell me this proposal, so that I can prepare in advance. I will remember this favor."

"If Director Li agrees, you are indeed preparing in advance. If you don't agree, just treat it as cleaning."

"I understand."

The Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill is a relatively remote area compared to the entire capital at this time.

Li Ming's security department settled some people in the factory in advance, which allowed the entire factory to operate stably until now.

For example, other factories have been in chaos since the last time they issued a "notice to promote production."

The factory's production has not been affected and there is no need to issue a notice to stabilize production.

However, the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill is also increasingly affected by outside influences.

It seems that we can't stop it, so we can only change from passive to active and invite some people in.

Since you plan to invite others to visit, you must first do a good job in appearance.

If you don't even do your best on the surface, that's disrespectful to others and has a bad attitude.

Similarly, in order to welcome the National Day, both inside and outside the factory are making final preparations.

Starting today, you can stop for three or four days.

Rolling mills have had time to make adjustments.

Because of this, Li Ming does not have to sit in the security department today. He can go to the canteen to pay attention to the procurement work.

After all, he still retains his position as a buyer.

He deliberately did not transfer the relationship to the security department, and no one cared about it at this time.

Section Chief Chen Guodong helped conceal it, otherwise Lou Xiao'e's identity would cause him a lot of trouble.

After the exposure, if Li Ming admitted it, he would not be able to sit in the position of Security Section Chief.

Of course, he could let Lou Xiaoe hide for a while and deny it to the outside world or say that the two had already broken up.

After chatting with the canteen director, Li Ming returned to the security department.

He wrote a proactive invitation report and submitted it to Director Li.

I really can’t stop it.

As for how to deal with certain hidden dangers, he deliberately did not write it down in the report.

Let someone else do this evil thing.

He is more reasonable and cannot do those things. He also cherishes his feathers.

For example, he strengthened the discipline of the security department and tried to prevent security personnel from beating people in the factory.

Same this morning.

Xu Damao, who had sought medical advice but could not cure his own problems, had recently started to think twice.

Xu Damao came into contact with many people and saw that there were many little people outside who took advantage of the situation and became influential figures.

Moreover, Liu Haizhong, the neighbor across the door, was first the workshop team leader, then a part-time inspection team member, and recently promoted to deputy director of the workshop, which made Xu Damao very jealous.

Xu Damao thought about it for a long time but had no good solution, and finally decided to try his luck at the small villa of Lou Xiao'e's parents.

There is nothing to do at work now. The dumplings have to wait until the afternoon. No one is watching at this time, so Xu Damao takes action immediately.

The floor of Lou's small villa was covered with dust and spider webs. It was obvious that no one had been there for a long time.

Xu Damao went to the homes of several close relatives of the Lou family, and there were also signs that they had not been touched for a long time.

This is very disappointing.

Not wanting to give up, Xu Damao went to inquire about Sister Lou Xiao'e's family again.

Sister Lou Xiaoe has also been divorced for more than half a year. She seems to have gone to the countryside to farm, and she has become a somewhat tanned rural woman.

Finally, in the small courtyard in the east of the city where Uncle Fu once lived, Xu Damao saw two signs hanging at the door. (End of chapter)
