Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 811: Apply eye drops!
Liu Lifang was feeling happy about receiving the good tea, but when she heard Wu Aiguo asking about her purpose, she immediately put away her smile and reported to Wu Aiguo: "Director! The situation is like this. Just before I called you, You Changzheng called me and said that he would report to our unit next Monday and asked me to cooperate with him in the future."

When Wu Aiguo heard what Liu Lifang introduced, his eyes narrowed into a line!

When he learned that You Changzheng was going to be transferred to the Trade Department to serve as the Director of the G Committee and concurrently the Deputy Director of the Trade Department, Wu Aiguo realized that this young You Changzheng, who was as young as him, was not a good person! After talking to Mr. Kou on the phone, Wu Aiguo was completely sure of his guess.

Seeing Wu Aiguo's reaction and thinking of You Changzheng's background, Liu Lifang said to Wu Aiguo, "Director! You Changzheng is no ordinary person. His father is You Guokai from the State Council. He was suddenly transferred to our Trade Department at this time. Obviously, he has bad intentions."

Wu Aiguo came out of his deep thoughts after hearing Liu Lifang's reminder. Thinking of what Liu Lifang did today, Wu Aiguo smiled and thanked Liu Lifang: "Sister Liu! Thank you for telling me this, but our Trade Department is not the Cadre Department of the Organization Department. Even if You Changzheng has a strong background, it is not easy for him to gain a foothold in our Trade Department."

"What's more, our Trade Department is responsible for purchasing various advanced equipment and technologies. It is the most important department of the State Council. If the work of our Trade Department cannot be carried out smoothly because of someone, the State Council will definitely not ignore it."

The reason why Liu Lifang came to find Wu Aiguo first was not only because she was very unhappy with You Changzheng's attitude when they talked on the phone, but the main reason was You Changzheng's background.

When Liu Lifang heard Wu Aiguo's answer and thought about the nature of the work of the Trade Department, she realized where Wu Aiguo's confidence came from because he saw that Wu Aiguo didn't take You Changzheng's background seriously at all.

Feeling the confidence in Wu Aiguo's words, Liu Lifang smiled and said to Wu Aiguo: "Director! I am also confused because of my concern. You are right. Although You Changzheng has a strong background, it is not easy for him to gain a foothold in our Trade Department."

After hearing what Liu Lifang said, Wu Aiguo, considering the purpose of the You family transferring You Changzheng to the Trade Department, reminded Liu Lifang: "Sister Liu! Although our Trade Department is not the Second Department of Cadres, You Changzheng's background is there after all. As long as he does not affect the work and unity of our Trade Department, we should still give him the respect he deserves."

When Liu Lifang heard Wu Aiguo's words, she knew what he meant. She immediately promised him, "Director! Don't worry! We will fully cooperate with you."

When Wu Aiguo heard Liu Lifang's promise, he smiled and replied, "Sister Liu! If enemies come, we will stop them. If floods come, we will block them with earth! As long as the whole company can unite as one, no matter how big the difficulties are, they will not be a problem for us."

Liu Lifang heard Wu Aiguo's words and felt the confidence in his words. She picked up the teacup on the table and drank all the tea in the cup. Then she took the tea leaves that Wu Aiguo gave her and said to him with a smile, "Director! I will be honored to accept this tea!"

When Wu Aiguo heard what Liu Lifang said, he smiled and said to her, "Sister Liu! I don't have anything else here, but tea is the most abundant. If you don't have tea to drink in the future, just come to me and get some."

Wu Aiguo watched Liu Lifang disappear in the corridor. Thinking of what You Changzheng had done, the smile on his face quickly disappeared without a trace.

The Trade Department was established specifically because of the equipment and technology in Wu Aiguo's small world. Once Wu Aiguo was transferred from the Trade Department, the work of the Trade Department would not be able to proceed smoothly. That's why Wu Aiguo was so confident and did not take You Changzheng, the second generation, seriously.

However, it is easier to avoid an open attack than to guard against a hidden one. Considering the layout that the You family has carried out behind the scenes, even if Wu Aiguo has enough confidence, he has to pay attention to the You family's plan and secretly ponder in his heart how to deal with You Changzheng's arrival.

Zhou Xiaosong was busy for the whole morning before he packed up his things. He looked at the office where he had worked for two years, his heart filled with reluctance and unwillingness.

Zhou Xiaosong sat quietly at his desk with a cigarette in his hand, thinking about what his old boss had told him last night. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He muttered to himself with resentment, "You family! Depriving someone of their money is like killing their parents. Since you won't let me live well, I won't let you live well either."

After Zhou Xiaosong said this, he immediately put the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray and walked out of the office.

"Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta!"

Just as Wu Aiguo was thinking about how to deal with what would happen next, there was a sudden knock on the office door.

Wu Aiguo heard a knock on the door and instinctively looked up. When he saw Zhou Xiaosong standing at the door of the office, he quickly stood up from his desk and greeted him with a smile: "Old Zhou! Why are you here? Have you packed your things?"

When Zhou Xiaosong heard what Wu Aiguo said, he immediately walked into Wu Aiguo's office and said to him with a fake smile: "Director! Everything has been packed. I came here to say goodbye to you." When Wu Aiguo heard what Zhou Xiaosong said, he smiled and said to Zhou Xiaosong: "Old Zhou! Let me make you a cup of tea first. Please come over here!"

Wu Aiguo quickly made tea for Zhou Xiaosong, then sat down in front of him and said to him with regret: "Old Zhou! We have worked together for almost three years. To be honest, I really don't want you to leave."

"But we are cadres of D. We have no choice but to move there, because that place needs our contribution. So I am here to wish you smooth work and all the best in your new position!"

"Of course! The Trade Department will be your mother's home from now on. If you encounter any difficulties in Jingu City and need our help, don't be polite to us."

When Zhou Xiaosong heard Wu Aiguo's words, he thought about how he was demoted in name only because of the You family, and said to Wu Aiguo unwillingly, "Director! You are right. We are cadres of D. If they need us, we must make unconditional contributions."

"But my transfer this time is not a normal job transfer in the organization, but someone is targeting our Trade Department and trying to use the power in their hands for personal gain!"

Wu Aiguo was naturally well aware of the truth behind Zhou Xiaosong's transfer. Facing Zhou Xiaosong's reminder, Wu Aiguo pretended to be surprised and asked, "Old Zhou! From what you said, is there any unknown story behind your transfer to Jingu City?"

When Zhou Xiaosong heard Wu Aiguo's question and saw Wu Aiguo's surprised expression, he instinctively thought that Wu Aiguo was not aware that his transfer to Jingu City was a secret arrangement by the You family.

With this thought in mind, Zhou Xiaosong, who was intent on showing off his power to the You family, immediately said to Wu Aiguo, "Director! Here's the situation. Yesterday, after I learned that I was being transferred, I specifically asked someone about the real reason for my transfer. I didn't know until I asked, and I was shocked when I found out."

"You Changzheng is about the same age as you, but his work ability is not even worth mentioning compared to yours. After all, you have been able to reach your current position because of your ability, while You Changzheng relied on his family."

Zhou Xiaosong paused for a moment and then introduced: "Director! Zhou Xiaosong is the youngest son of Zhou Guokai of the State Council. Before the Trade Department was established, the You family was almost entirely in charge of import and export trade. At that time, You Changzheng's second brother-in-law, Li Jianshe, was the deputy general manager of the Import and Export Trade Corporation."

"After the establishment of the Trade Department, the import and export trading company was abolished. The establishment of our Trade Department is equivalent to touching the big pie of the You family in disguise."

"According to what I know, You Changzheng's second brother-in-law, Li Jianshe, has already gone to Hong Kong some time ago to serve as the general manager of Red Star Trading Company. You Changzheng was transferred to our Trade Department at this time, obviously because of you. After all, it was because of you that the Import and Export Trading Company was closed down."

Wu Aiguo knew the relationship between Li Jianshe and You Changzheng, but he could never have imagined that Li Jianshe was the deputy general manager of the import and export trading company, let alone that the You family once controlled the import and export trading company.

The information revealed by Zhou Xiaosong was very important to Wu Aiguo, but Wu Aiguo knew clearly that the reason why Zhou Xiaosong told him all this was not because Zhou Xiaosong wanted to warn him, but because he wanted to seduce the You family in front of him, so that he would fight against the You family and take revenge on the You family for transferring him away.

Wu Aiguo, who knew Zhou Xiaosong's intention very well, did not directly expose Zhou Xiaosong's idea, but pretended to be confused and said, "Old Zhou! I originally thought that You Changzheng was transferred to our Trade Department to gain experience in our Trade Department. Now it seems that You Changzheng has bad intentions!"

When Zhou Xiaosong heard Wu Aiguo's answer, he instinctively thought that his goal had been half achieved. In order to achieve his real goal, Zhou Xiaosong did not forget to remind Wu Aiguo: "Director! As the saying goes, people have no intention of harming tigers, but tigers hurt people! You Changzheng was transferred to our unit. In addition to serving as deputy director, he will no longer serve as the director of the G Committee. This question is obviously directed at you."

Although Zhou Xiaosong revealed so many inside stories to him in order to please the You family, the information Zhou Xiaosong revealed made Wu Aiguo put aside his contempt for You Changzheng.

In response to Zhou Xiaosong's reminder, in order to make Zhou Xiaosong happy, Wu Aiguo smiled and thanked Zhou Xiaosong: "Old Zhou! Thank you for telling me such important news. As for You Changzheng, although he has a family to rely on, I am not made of clay."

When Zhou Xiaosong heard Wu Aiguo's answer, he immediately realized that his goal had been achieved. He stood up from his chair and said to Wu Aiguo happily, "Director! You founded the Trade Department. I believe that in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are paper tigers!"
