Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 513 The eldest brother and the second brother support you!

In the dark and quiet alley, Xu Qing, his second brother, and his third brother were walking side by side.

He has great confidence in his third brother.

Feng Ming has been naughty and mischievous since he was a child. It is difficult for him to obey the rules.

This kind of temperament is the least likely to follow the rules.

The old director of his factory asked him to start the factory. If he really stopped him, he would only make the third brother feel aggrieved.

Moreover, Xu Qing also knew that this was a good training opportunity for Feng Ming.

It can hone the mind and make his character calm.

As the eldest brother, Xu Qing is not worried at all about whether Feng Ming can take over the leadership role in his factory.

Because he relies on his third brother's intelligence and his slicker approach than Xu Damao.

Xu Qing could tell with his eyes closed that if Feng Ming became the director of the hardware factory, it would be difficult for the hardware factory to decline under the impact of the wave of reform.

As the eldest brother, he knows how high his temper is.

Although Aiguo is now in charge of the fifth factory of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, compared with Fengming, he may not be able to hold him back if he really wants to compete in the official career.

The patriotism is too calm, and he always thinks a lot when doing things, considers many aspects, and likes to strategize and take all aspects into consideration.

Although this is an essential condition or requirement for an official career.

But being too calm is not a good thing.

This is what Feng Ming lacks, and patriotism is too deeply influenced by his eldest brother.

There was no way around it. When Xu Qing was in charge of the family, his parents passed away, and he was only seventeen years old. He dragged his younger brothers and sisters, and they were constantly fighting overtly and covertly in the compound. How could he not pay attention to everything and be careful in every possible way.

Patriotism is the second among the four siblings. When Xu Qing is not at home, he, as the second brother, has to shoulder the heavy responsibility of taking care of the third brother Feng Ming and his sister.

Over time, in terms of personality, he gradually became closer to his elder brother.

Back in the compound, Xu Qing, Patriot Shang Fengming and Xiujuan sat for a while in the room they had just tidied up today.

After Jinghong and Aiqian helped Aunt Feng clean the pots and pans, they helped the two old people over and sat down to chat together.

When Liu Haizhong came with his second aunt and his wife, Feng Ming was happily introducing the old furniture he bought from the flea market.

The bangs are covered with a blue work clothes made of solid material. The wrinkles on his face are visible to the naked eye, which have increased a lot compared to more than ten years ago.

Seeing that Xu Qing's three brothers, three family members, and two elderly people were there, Liu Haizhong reached into his pocket with his hand behind his back, took out an economy cigarette, handed one to Grandpa Xu Qing, and then sat on the kang that Jinghong and Ai Qian had given up. Along the way, he smiled and said:

"Xiao Qing, I just came back two years ago, and today Feng Ming is also back. You three brothers are getting together in our compound again."

Xu Qing smiled and said: "Second uncle, your family Guangtian and Guangfu came back together at the beginning of the year."

Before Liu Haizhong could say anything, the second aunt rushed to say:

"Forget it, the two boys in our family had no choice but to move back because they had no place to live outside and were desperate. Unlike Aiguo and Fengming, both of your brothers have a bright future. Fengming came back today, but I’ll help you, the big brother.”

Xu Qing heard what the second aunt was saying and smiled without saying anything.

After all, Feng Ming returned to live in the courtyard. No one in the courtyard would think that Yan Jie became a couple because of the front yard.

Last month, Yan Jiecheng took Jiefang and Xie Kuang to the backyard to finish the trouble, and Xu Fengming will be back this month.

Anyone else would think so.

But Xu Qing didn't explain.

What the second aunt, the second uncle and the people in the courtyard think is their business.

Xu Qing doesn't care.

Live your own life well, that's the business.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, who lived together in the backyard, were standing in the middle of the pitch-black courtyard, smoking cigarettes and muttering quietly.

They both came from the house where Xu Fengming lived without a face.

A few years ago, Liu Guangtian stopped Xu Fengming from building a house in the courtyard.

It was very unpleasant.

Liu Guangfu has always been timid and timid, with a cowardly temperament and not having many independent opinions.

He has been following Liu Guangtian since he was a child. When he was a student, he fought with Aiguo and Fengming in an alley.

Feng Ming came back today, and the three Xu Qing brothers got together again.

Seeing that his second brother wasn't going, he naturally wouldn't go either.

What if he gets into trouble with someone in the courtyard in the future?

He also counted on Liu Guangtian to help him.

Even though Liu Guangfu has always been like this, he seems to have no ability at all.

But actually very smart.

He had no ability, so he let Liu Guangtian take the lead in everything, while he hid behind and enjoyed the benefits.

Whether it's asking for money for my parents or something else, there are almost no exceptions.

Even when he was beaten as a child, he only stood up after Liu Guangtian was dealt with.

And this created Liu Guangfu's current character.

It was good for him to take the lead. For the rest, let the second brother take action first. He would look at the situation first and then make a plan.

After the two of them talked quietly in the courtyard for a while, they finished smoking and then turned around and went back to their rooms.

It's early morning, and the autumn rain that fell in the middle of the night has gradually lightened up.

The courtyard was shrouded in the misty autumn rain, making it indescribably cold.

Under the morning light, the bicycles and motorcycles parked in the old yard, as well as the yellow rubber shoes hanging under the eaves, contrasting with the vicissitudes of the houses, make people feel indescribably stagnant.

Courtyards from the old era, objects from the new era.

It outlines the life of people in the courtyard under the combination of old and new.

Xu Qing and Jing Hong got up early and left the compound shortly after.

Aiguo and Fengming, together with Xiujuan and Aiqian, the four of them also dressed neatly and walked out of the cool courtyard.

Also accompanying them were Shazhu, Qin Huairu, Banggan, Xu Damao, the first uncle, the second uncle and others.

On Monday morning, those who work go to work, those who go to school go to school, and those who stay in the courtyard clean the house and make breakfast.

After Xu Fengming arrived at the hardware factory early in the morning, after the morning meeting, he went to the old factory director and informed him of his decision.

The old factory director was in the office and was very happy with Xu Fengming's answer.

"Fengming, I knew you would agree." Holding the teapot with freshly brewed tea, the old factory manager opened the window to let in the early morning air, and faced Xu Fengming and said, "You are young, capable, and very talented. Your ideas and mind are still flexible. I will hand over the factory to you before I retire. Don’t worry.

In the future, you can lead our factory to create greater glory. I know you can do it! "

Xu Fengming smiled and said: "Old factory director, I promise you, the deputy directors of our factory, they are over there."

The old factory manager put down the steaming teapot on his desk and said:

"Hey, the deputy directors of our factory are all veterans. They have been in the factory for decades and have lost their motivation. You should know what their thoughts are, Feng Ming." Xu Fengming didn't say anything. He took out a cigarette, handed one to the old factory manager, and took out a lighter to help light it.

The old factory director lowered his head and took a puff, then the cigarette was lit. He motioned Xu Fengming to sit on a chair nearby and said:

"I am retiring this year. Before the official announcement was issued, they began to move around secretly, thinking about my position. Tell me, they are obsessed with competing for my position. Can they lead the factory?

He was planning to climb up in his eyes and heart. What would happen if he climbed up?

You have to have real ability.

If a factory wants to develop well, its efficiency must be improved.

Now we are opening it again. Our small state-owned factory is not considered big even if it is said to be small.

Now the total number of people is more than 200.

If I let them lead, I am afraid that I will become a yellow man sooner or later, so I will rest assured if I leave it to you young people.

The state is about to give up on our factory. At the end of the year before last, it left our factory to fend for itself. If you hadn't been so full of ideas, you had been trying to get business for our factory from the year you entered the factory. I would have done everything in the factory. If not, it will close down.

Wait a minute, I will write a recommendation letter to the organization, and I will choose you as the candidate. I will not consider the others for the time being.

Feng Ming, you college student, don’t let me down. "

Xu Fengming smoked the cigarette and said: "Old factory director, look at it, I will definitely lead our factory to bloom more and more sesame seeds, and I will not let you down."

After speaking, Xu Fengming mentioned several deputy directors in the factory.

The old factory director had been involved in officialdom for many years and knew what it meant, so he waved his hand and said:

"It's okay. Those deputy factory directors are here. As for me, I am the one who is retiring. For the future of our factory, I am not afraid of offending them. Besides, the superiors asked me to recommend candidates. I will push you up. They have Go ahead and yell at the higher-ups. Once I leave, you will take my place and you will have to accept it even if they don't accept it."

Xu Fengming nodded, feeling that it made sense.

Although he was assigned to a hardware factory by the state as soon as he graduated from college.

I don't know anything about the personnel transfers in other factories.

In many state-owned factories, the heads of the factories are directly transferred from other places or departments.

Those who are deputy factory directors have nothing to say about the decisions made above.

Under state control, personnel transfer, that's it.

Whoever is asked to take over will take over. Whether they have the ability or not, the higher-ups have the final say.

But 90% of people are capable.

But there are also people who have little ability and still become factory directors.

But after all, they are in the minority, because they are incapable and have connections.

The old factory director intended to let him take over, so Xu Fengming naturally felt that there was no problem.

But that doesn’t mean things are set in stone.

The old factory director’s words don’t count, the final decision has to be made by the superiors.

Therefore, after Xu Fengming talked with the old factory director for a long time, he turned around and walked out to go about the work at hand.

As for whether he can successfully succeed the old factory director and manage the factory in the future.

Xu Fengming hoped that it would be possible, but no one dared to guarantee that it would not happen.

What if one comes from the air?

He couldn't think about this aspect.

However, with the current momentum of reform in the country, there are already signs that the country will let go of his factory.

Xu Fengming felt that the possibility of airborne landing was very slim.

More than half a month passed in a flash.

The weather is getting colder, autumn is coming to an end, and winter is coming.

Xu Qing put on a sweater and woolen trousers early in the morning, put a leather jacket on top of a brown sweater, and asked his third brother in the courtyard:

"Feng Ming, how is your situation?"

These days, he has almost never asked.

The grain station warehouse and the meat factory are inseparable from him. Er Mazi only goes to the countryside to collect pigs once a week. This weekend, Er Mazi went to the grain station warehouse to take care of them. This way he has free time and does not have to go to the countryside early in the morning.

Xu Fengming sighed and said: "Brother, the superiors have not given a reply to the retirement of my old factory director and are still delaying it. However, the superiors have discussed his recommendation for me to take over as the director of the factory. They have discussed it several times, but they have not finalized it. Whether to give in or not, but I heard from the old factory director that the higher-ups have not considered the deputy directors, and I’m afraid they won’t know what’s going on until next year.”

Xu Qing was smoking a cigarette, looking at the ice on the ground in the courtyard that had been frozen all night, and said:

"Feng Ming, this matter can't be rushed. Don't take it too seriously. I'm afraid if you don't get it right, the country will restructure your factory in the spring of next year. By then, the country will completely ignore it and your factory will be suspended. "

Xu Fengming rubbed his hands and said: "Brother, that's right. Starting from this month, our factory's business is maintained entirely by the relationships I made before. Many units that used to have frequent dealings with our factory have reduced their orders. The old factory director He is about to retire and our factory is in chaos."

Xu Qing smiled and said: "Feng Ming, have you ever thought about it, if after the New Year, the country will use your factory to carry out a pilot restructuring next year, and your factory will be converted from state-owned to private, will you take over as the director of the factory, or will you arrange for the state to Arrange to go to work in another factory again?"

Xu Fengming looked surprised, "Brother, does the country really want small factories like ours to be turned into personal ones in the future?"

Xu Qing exhaled the smoke in his mouth, looked up at the red sun that had just appeared in the eastern sky and said:

"It's uncertain, it has been reopened. It will be difficult for the country to continue to manage all factories by itself.

It is impossible for a large factory to just ignore it, as the stakes involved are huge, so at most it will just downsize its staff, but for a small factory, the possibility is very high. "

Xu Fengming remained silent, and he also felt some brows.

After the reopening, everything in the country has changed dramatically.

Every year is the same. From last year to this year, the domestic changes were as fast as the previous ten years.

And the attitude of the superiors towards his factory also showed signs.

He also heard privately that one or two of the deputy factory directors who had been secretly competing for the position of factory director had begun to move to become leaders in other factories.

Some even plan to resign and go into business.

The variables caused by the change can be said to be confusing to everyone.

The only thing that everyone is sure of is that the domestic economy is moving in a good direction.

Many individual factories have been opened across the country, and they are reported on in newspapers and on TV news every now and then.

There is even more publicity in the radio broadcasts.

Seeing that his third brother was silent, Xu Qing raised his hand and patted his shoulder and said:

"What are you thinking about? No matter whether your factory changes its structure next year or not, your eldest brother and your second brother will support you as the factory director. If it changes, you will take it. If it doesn't change and the old factory director recommends you, you will be a good director. Factory director, lead your factory to strive for development."

Xu Fengming lowered his head and hummed.

The next afternoon, Xu Fengming had just gotten off work and returned to the compound. He said excitedly to his eldest brother Xu Qing, who had not gone to the suburban meat factory in the afternoon because of something else:

"Brother, our old factory director said today that he will retire at the end of next month after receiving the approval from the higher authorities.

It has been decided that I will be the factory director. I will be temporarily managing the factory this year and will officially take office next year! "

　　Today is Christmas Eve, I wish everyone a happy Christmas Eve! ! !

　　Pray for Gansu, the earthquake is too annoying, and it is winter again. I hope readers in Gansu will pay more attention to safety.
