The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

It was easy for Li Ming to find excuses to dismiss Lou Xiao'e's whims, as he had already pinned her to death.

He started to fool and said: "The researchers are all temporary personnel. The city is just a place for discussions and meetings. The experiments are all done in the cannery of Xiangyanghua."

"The members of Xiangyanghua Brigade have been eating instant noodles for so long and they are still not tired of it."

"Captain Gao and the others have said that other meals are tasteless now. They have developed a very tricky appetite."

"When I don't have instant noodles in the future, it will definitely take a long time for me to get used to it."

Tried and tested, Li Ming succeeded in changing the topic.

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "Are Gao Jianye and the others happy?"

Li Ming followed up the conversation and said: "The happiest people are those half-year-olds. According to Gao Jianye, they have gained two pounds eating instant noodles."

Lou Xiao'e chuckled and said: "Gao Jianye is bragging again. They just tried to eat some instant noodles, it's not so easy to get fat."

"The clothes they wear in winter are thick. I don't know whether they are fat or not. Their faces are indeed much rosier."

Lou Xiao'e, wearing only a shirt on her upper body, said with emotion: "It's really amazing. The highest temperature in Beijing is only over 10 degrees, and the lowest temperature in Hong Kong is over 20 degrees."

"There are many more wonderful things."

"What else is going on?"

"Why do you like me?"

"I just love it."

The next day, in the morning.

The steel rolling mill held a meeting to study the "Letter to Workers and Cadres of Factories and Mines in the City"

[-]. Be more energetic, strive to reach the top, and complete or exceed the national production plan and national construction plan.

It is necessary to carry forward the high sense of responsibility of the owner, and strive to ensure product quality. We must fight against some unhealthy phenomena that disregard quality and waste national resources. …

Agriculture is the foundation of the national economy, and the industry, transportation, finance and trade departments must actively support agriculture.

[-]. Establish and improve the front-line production headquarters.

Units that have not yet established temporary political institutions and whose teams are weak or disorganized must step forward to form a front-line production headquarters. In particular, a factory-level command organization must be established to uniformly dispatch manpower, material resources, and financial resources. Ensure the smooth progress of production.

Employees must actively provide support, obey leadership, follow instructions, and not hinder the work of the production team.

[-]. Consolidate labor discipline in the country. Adhere to the eight-hour work system and observe labor discipline as an example.

. No employee should use the excuse that they belong to different organizations, have different views or have different opinions to slack off in production and work, undermine production collaboration and destroy work. Anyone who insists on such mistakes and causes damage to production and work should be given necessary sanctions.

Late arrival, early leave, shortened working hours, shortened business hours, unexcused absenteeism and other adverse behaviors, otherwise, shall be subject to disciplinary action.

[-]. Save money and trouble, and run the enterprise diligently and frugally.

Do everything possible to save manpower, material resources, and financial resources, and minimize administrative expenses and all non-production expenses.

The living welfare and wages of employees shall be governed by current national regulations and shall not be changed without permission. .

Five, six, seven.

All in all, we should learn from the army, work hard in one place, work hard on production and technology, and don't hand out money randomly.

These requirements have little to do with Li Ming's security department.

Only Article [-], ‘Raise vigilance and strengthen safety and security work. ’ is what he is responsible for.

‘Elements (not referring to families) who sneak into factories and disrupt production and cause havoc must be severely punished in accordance with the law. ’

After the meeting in the factory, the 'security team' of the steel rolling mill held another meeting specifically focused on safety and security work.

One morning, Li Ming did nothing except make a few phone calls, and spent all his time in meetings.

noon.

Li Ming went to Lou Xiao'e's small courtyard in the west of the city to pick up the meals prepared by Fu Ma.

After many twists and turns, I arrived at the Institute of Innovation Technology.

Although they are both in the west of the city, the two places are still three or four kilometers away.

He held his briefcase under his arm and two food boxes in his hand, and just opened the door of the 'Spice Research Laboratory'.

Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun immediately came forward and each received a food box.

Luo Yun quickly opened the food box and said happily: "Wow! So many dishes! All of them are good!"

Li Ming smiled and asked, "Where are the others?"

Zhou Xiaobai said with a smile: "Some go back to their work canteen, some go home, and they all go to have lunch."

"If you hadn't called in advance, Luo Yun and I would have gone home for dinner."

Li Ming said softly: "I just have some free time, so I just wanted to have dinner with you."

Zhou Xiaobai opened the food box much more briskly, and the sweetness in his heart was beyond words.

Luo Yun said while placing the dishes: "It seems that I am another big light bulb today."

"I thought there would be a lot of light bulbs, but I didn't expect you were the only one left."

Li Ming retorted with a smile, took out the information brought back by Gangcheng from his briefcase, and placed two thick stacks on the table.

Zhou Xiaobai asked: "What are you holding?"

"Information on foreign construction errors. I have asked people to copy the traditional Chinese characters into simplified Chinese. You can help proofread it to see if there are any errors or omissions."

Li Ming got the information yesterday and made arrangements when he returned to the capital, each person copying a little bit.

Luo Yun admired: "You actually found so many!"

"It's a piece of cake. The main reason is that they made a lot of mistakes, and many of them were not written down."

Zhou Xiaobai persuaded: "Let's eat first. In this weather, the dishes will get cold very quickly."

"Yes, let's eat first."

The three of them were all young people, chatting while eating.

Li Ming asked first: "What have you been busy with this morning?"

Zhou Xiaobai replied calmly: "Luo Yun and I have nothing to do in the morning. We will read the borrowed textbooks."

"When Researcher Zhang and others are not busy, we will give them the questions they don't understand and ask them to help answer them."

"Then Aunt Xu from the public phone next door came to send a message, saying that you would bring food to eat together."

Luo Yun added with a smile: "Aunt Xu from the public phone greeted us with a smile. This month the institute contributed a lot of paging calls to her."

Li Ming gave Zhou Xiaobai her favorite braised pork, "The main thing is that it's close. If it's far away, Aunt Xu won't be happy either."

Zhou Xiaobai smiled sweetly and said, "Aunt Xu is very enthusiastic. What about you? Are you busy in the factory this morning?"

"I have a lot of free time. I had a meeting all morning."

Zhou Xiaobai asked doubtfully: "Aren't you very busy in meetings?"

"That's the one who takes the meeting seriously, and I'm the one who doesn't take it seriously."

Zhou Xiaobai said with concern: "Be careful if the leader finds trouble with you."

"The meeting was about production. I am in charge of the security department. The content of the meeting has little to do with me."

"Oh."

With a creak, the wooden door of the main hall was pushed open.

Zhang Haiyang poked his head into the room and said with a smile: "You are eating."

"Be sneaky and don't knock on the door. What do you want to do?" Luo Yun asked accusingly.

Zhang Haiyang said nonsense: "Qiao Yongkuan at the gate said that Consultant Li is here. I hurriedly came back to report on my work."

It's too fake, Luo Yun snorted coldly.

Li Ming didn't take it seriously and asked with a smile: "Have you eaten?" Zhang Haiyang replied: "You have eaten. You eat slowly. I will go to the yard behind to bask in the sun."

When the door closed again, Luo Yun said with a bad smile: "Zhang Haiyang must have thought that you two were the only ones here and wanted to scare you."

Zhou Xiaobai ate the food silently, her face a little red. If she and Li Ming were the only ones here, it would be a scene that would happen without even thinking about it.

Holding her and eating together quietly is considered honest, and the little game of you feeding me and I feeding you is definitely indispensable.

Li Ming smiled and said: "Xiaobai and I are the ones we are talking to. Even if we are seen by others, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Luo Yun chuckled and said, "You are so thick-skinned."

Li Ming said confidently: "You can't have a girlfriend if you are too thin-skinned."

A thick-skinned person is not afraid of being criticized, so Luo Yun gave up teasing, "You are awesome!"

"Isn't Zhang Haiyang here this morning?"

Luo Yun took the opportunity to complain: "He is not here. I don't know where he went to fool around."

Li Ming raised his eyebrows, "I'll ask him later what he's doing. Don't cause trouble for us."

The middle school students have a meeting today. A few days ago, the classes for colleges and universities, for farmers, and for workers were all completed, and this time only the classes for middle schools were left.

People like Zhang Haiyang are not eligible to participate.

He was worried that Zhang Haiyang would go somewhere to cause trouble.

Zhou Xiaobai agreed: "We need to ask more clearly. He has received a salary. His absence from work is not counted. If he asks for leave, he must also explain the matters."

"Xiaobai, you will be responsible for this matter. Ask him to write a note explaining the situation."

"Ah."

After eating, Li Ming was not in a hurry to leave, but went to the backyard to find Zhang Haiyang first.

"Zhang Haiyang, what have you been busy with recently?"

At the end of March, the sun at noon was already relatively warm on my body.

Zhang Haiyang, who was leaning against the wall and holding his hands, said lazily: "I'm not busy with anything!"

"How's your school going?"

Zhang Haiyang said casually: "It's still the same. Now it's the people who visit, they have the final say."

"We the people stand aside."

Li Ming chatted and commented: "Just move to the side."

"You are young, your words have low weight, and it is not interesting to play around like a family."

Standing up straight, Zhang Haiyang disagreed and said, "What we do is still very important."

Li Ming said: "I think it's not as important as what this innovative technology research institute is doing."

Zhang Haiyang retorted: "I admit that this matter is important, but the matter of 'who has the final say' is more important, right?"

Li Ming agreed: "For everyone, 'who has the final say' is more important and the most important thing."

"But for you, this matter is too big and you can't get involved. All you can do is do what you can."

"Like me. I felt that I couldn't afford to get involved, so I decided to do more things that are meaningful to ordinary people."

Zhang Haiyang said seriously: "Your ability, whether it is theoretical level or work ability, is nothing to say."

"There are few people in this capital that I can admire, and you are one of them."

"Actually, I think you could do more."

Li Ming smiled and said, "Thank you, but I know how much I can eat."

"Some people guard the border, some save lives and heal the wounded, and some grow grain and vegetables."

"I happen to have the advantage of improving food, and making good use of this advantage is my best contribution."

"The instant noodles that have been developed have military uses and disaster relief uses. You will understand even if I don't tell you."

Zhang Haiyang admitted: "Instant noodles are quite useful."

Li Ming started a new topic, "We are in the capital city, and eating meat is supplied by transportation from various places. It is actually not difficult, especially for people like your family."

"But how many people across the country don't eat meat more than a few times a year?"

"Even the few times the family eats meat, it can only be given to the strong laborers and children in the family. They can't eat it even once!"

Zhang Haiyang listened to his words silently, and the topic was a bit heavy.

Li Ming continued: "The starch ham sausage we are working on is also a very meaningful thing."

"If our ham sausage can be put on the dining tables of thousands of households, especially those in need, the whole family can eat a few slices."

"How gratifying is this? This contribution should not be small, right?"

People at this time may have wrong ideas and methods, but they have a strong spirit of serving the country and the people.

Zhang Haiyang’s ideals are obviously still there, “It is indeed something that makes people happy.”

"The problem we are encountering now is that the ham sausage tastes like batter, has no pork flavor, and does not have the elasticity you requested."

Li Ming encouraged: "It is normal to encounter difficulties in research. Nothing is smooth sailing."

"You see Researcher Zhang and the others are not discouraged."

"We can adjust the process, adjust the material proportions, and try it slowly."

Zhang Haiyang nodded, "This is the only way."

Li Ming opened another topic, "I asked you to help find foreign construction accident cases before. This is also important information for our construction workers to make less mistakes."

"Buildings collapsed and bridges collapsed. Not to mention the money and materials lost, the casualties alone are unacceptable."

"What we do can be considered as saving many lives, right?"

Zhang Haiyang agreed: "Yeah."

"But I searched really hard, and I really couldn't find a few cases of foreign construction accidents."

"Can we find some from China?"

Li Ming smiled and said: "I have found everything and found someone to copy it into simplified Chinese. You can help proofread it for errors this afternoon."

"The things are at Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun's place."

Zhang Haiyang said in surprise: "You have found everything! I will proofread it right away."

Li Ming stretched out his hand to stop him, "Don't worry, I have a very important task for you."

"You said it. Promise to complete the task."

Li Ming said in detail: "It is obviously not enough to have cases alone. These examples also need to be refined ideologically to raise the level of thinking."

"Someone needs to analyze why they made these mistakes. I don't have many contacts with theoretical people, and I don't have many contacts with Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun."

"You have contact with many people, so you ask some qualified people to write a summary of each case. The summary of comments must have quotations."

Zhang Haiyang quickly assured: "No problem. Don't worry."

"Give me the proofread materials first, and I will make a few copies. Then you can give them to others to write a summary."

The two walked back while chatting.

Li Ming finished Zhang Haiyang's ideological work and left first.

As for where Zhang Haiyang went to play in the morning, he left it to team leader Zhou Xiaobai to handle it.

He still has to go to Hong Kong City. The water tank matter is not finished yet. (End of chapter)
