Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 46 Don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face!
"Comrades! Who are you looking for?" At around six o'clock in the evening, Yan Bugui, who was watering the flowers in the courtyard, saw two middle-aged men walking into the courtyard from outside with a bag in their hands. Face asked the two of them curiously.

One of the middle-aged men, upon hearing Yan Bugui's inquiry, quickly introduced him to Yan Bugui: "Comrade! We are from the steel rolling mill, and this is our deputy director Guo! We are here on a special trip. Find Master Wu Pingshan."

When Yan Bugui heard the middle-aged man's introduction, a surprised expression appeared on his face, and he quickly shouted to the east wing: "Master Wu! Someone is looking for you."

Wu Pingshan, who was eating in the house, heard Yan Bugui's shout and quickly put down his chopsticks and walked out of the house. When he saw Deputy Director Guo standing in the courtyard, he asked in surprise: "Factory Guo?" Chief! Why are you here? Come inside quickly!"

At the invitation of Wu Pingshan, Director Guo walked into the East Wing, and happened to see a family sitting together for dinner.

Factory manager Guo and the accompanying logistics director put down the presents and introduced to Wu Pingshan with a smile: "Master Wu! I am here this time mainly to find your son, Comrade Wu Aiguo. I have something to ask." He helps."

When Wu Pingshan learned about Factory Director Guo's intention, a surprised expression appeared on his face again, and he quickly introduced Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! Let me introduce you to you. This is Deputy Director Guo who is in charge of logistics at our steel rolling mill! This is Director Lin of Logistics."

When Wu Aiguo learned that he was the person Director Guo was looking for, he immediately thought of the work that Director Guo was in charge of, and vaguely guessed the purpose of Director Guo's visit.

Hearing his father's introduction, Wu Aiguo quickly put down the chopsticks in his hand, and politely greeted the two of them: "Director Guo! Director Lin! Hello! You two come to see me, what can I do?"

Director Guo heard Wu Aiguo's inquiry and saw that the room was full of people. He said with some embarrassment: "Chief Wu! Can we talk somewhere else?"

When Wu Aiguo heard what Director Guo said, he nodded subconsciously, and said to Wu Pingshan and Chen Shuying, "Dad! Mom! Then I will go out with Director Guo."

After Wu Aiguo walked out of the courtyard with Director Guo and Director Lin, he curiously asked Director Guo: "Director Guo! I wonder why you came to see me this time?"

Director Guo heard Wu Aiguo's inquiry and thought of the purpose of his trip. He introduced Wu Aiguo: "Chief Wu! The situation is like this. Isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival coming soon?"

"As in previous years, every time the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, our factory will give some benefits to the workers. In the past, the benefits we paid were distributed to us by the superior department. This year, due to the lack of supplies, the superior directly reduced it by [-]%."

"I heard that not long ago, you just helped the supply and marketing agency get back 1 yuan of unplanned soap, so I wanted to ask you to see if you can help our factory also purchase 1 yuan of unplanned soap?"

When Wu Aiguo learned about the work that Director Guo was in charge of, he had already guessed the purpose of Director Guo's coming to find him. Now that Director Guo asked him to help purchase 1 yuan of soap, Wu Aiguo secretly calculated in his heart that this matter pros and cons.

After Wu Aiguo was silent for a few minutes, he replied with a serious face: "Director Guo! You have given me a big problem!"

When Director Guo explained his intention to Wu Aiguo, he had been worried that Wu Patriotic Association would refuse to help. Now that Director Guo was secretly relieved to see that Wu Aiguo only said it was difficult but had no intention of rejecting him.

In order to try to persuade Wu Aiguo to help, Director Guo quickly said to Wu Aiguo: "Chief Wu! Your father is the master of our steel rolling mill. Through your father's relationship, you are also a family member of our steel rolling mill. The right way is to look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face. You must help me with this matter?"

Let alone 1 yuan of soap, Wu Aiguo can still afford even 10 yuan of soap.

But this is a special era, and Wu Aiguo really doesn't want him to expose his secrets with some small benefits.

Facing Director Guo's plea, Wu Aiguo replied with a face full of embarrassment: "Director Guo! I was able to help our supply and marketing cooperative get the unplanned soap of 1 yuan mainly because I was the one who purchased it this time. My comrades will fully support me in my first procurement mission after taking office."

"Now if it's for something other than work, and you ask me to ask my comrades for help, I don't know how to talk to my comrades?"

When Director Guo heard Wu Aiguo's answer, he thought of the benefits that the factory would pay out during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and begged Wu Aiguo: "Chief Wu! I know this request makes you feel very embarrassed."

"Do you think it's okay? We don't want 1 yuan of soap, you just need to get us 6000 yuan, so I have an explanation for the workers in the factory."

Wu Aiguo heard that Director Guo took the initiative to reduce the purchase of 4000 yuan of soap. Thinking that his father was still a worker in the rolling mill, Wu Aiguo finally nodded and replied: "Director Guo! Since I belong to the rolling mill, I will call my comrade tomorrow and let him see if there is a solution, and then I will give you an answer."

Director Guo felt extremely happy when he saw Wu Aiguo finally relenting. He quickly reached out to hold Wu Aiguo's palm and thanked Wu Aiguo: "Chief Wu! Then on behalf of all the employees of our steel rolling mill, thank you. !”

Wu Aiguo heard the thanks from Director Guo, and considering the particularity of this era, he did not forget to tell Director Guo: "Director Guo! Although I don't know, where did you know that I can get soap? news, but I hope this matter can come to an end!"

Hearing Wu Aiguo's reminder, Factory Manager Guo couldn't understand the meaning of Wu Aiguo's words, and quickly assured Wu Aiguo: "Section Chief Wu! Don't worry! I will definitely not spread this matter outside. "

When Wu Aiguo heard the promise made by Director Guo, he didn't take it to heart at all, because he believed that since Director Guo could know the news, others could also know the news.

Wu Aiguo looked at Director Guo's happy expression, smiled and said to Director Guo: "Director Guo! Then I will contact you tomorrow."

When Director Guo heard Wu Aiguo's answer, he thought that Wu Aiguo had only eaten half of his dinner, so he stopped staying any longer, and said to Wu Aiguo with a smile: "Section Chief Wu! Then I will wait for your good news. "

"Deputy Director Guo! Director Lin! Why are you here?" Just as Director Guo was saying goodbye to Wu Aiguo, Liu Haizhong walked out of the courtyard. Director Lin greeted the two of them with a shocked look on his face.

Factory Director Guo, who was about to leave, heard Liu Haizhong's inquiry and asked with surprise: "Isn't this Master Liu? Do you also live in the same courtyard as Section Chief Wu?"
