Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 188 Strike
The news from the Metallurgical Ministry quickly reached the steel rolling mill. Director Nie was slightly depressed after learning about it. Unexpectedly, his words turned out to be true. Although Director Yang did not serve as secretary, this was his most critical step. Didn't go up either!
I have been the deputy director for several years, and this is the best opportunity to be promoted to the main director.If you miss this opportunity, you still don’t know when the next time will be? You are almost 40 years old, how many more years do you have left?
After learning the news, Secretary Huang took the initiative to come to Director Nie's office to talk to him. Although Director Nie quickly adjusted his situation, Secretary Huang still discovered the clues from the subtleties and enlightened with a smile, "Director Nie, it's... Don’t you still feel uncomfortable? Or are you not convinced? Come on, I’ll take you around!”

After that, Secretary Huang took Director Nie to the room where the diesel engine's operating test and fatigue test were conducted, and pointed at the students who were taking records, "Director Nie, what do you think of them?"

"All good work!" Director Nie nodded and had to admit that these students were meticulous in their research, and this fatigue test required 24-hour continuous observation. These students never complained about being tired!
Secretary Huang turned around and asked the students who were taking notes loudly, how is the condition of the engine?
The student replied: "Secretary, the engine has been running very stable now, but we have to continue to observe, and we have also recorded many areas that need modification! The next modification will be better!"

Secretary Huang continued to ask: "How long will it continue to operate stably?"

"At least a month!"

"Okay! Very good! I'm waiting for your report, and I will ask Professor Wu for credit!" Then Secretary Huang turned to Director Nie and said loudly: "Do you still feel that your current job is not important? Then Secretary Huang walked out of the laboratory and said to Factory Director Nie beside him: "Why do we want to develop this single-cylinder diesel engine?" "Why does the Beijing Agricultural Machinery Factory keep saying that production is not saturated?"

"They are too rigid. They think it's great to imitate the combine harvester made by the Soviet Union! But have they considered our country's national conditions? Have they ever actually worked in the countryside? Just slap their foreheads and say that production is not saturated?"

"Who can buy it except state-owned farms when it is so expensive? How much money does the people's commune have to buy such large agricultural machinery?"

"Do you really think that just because Gu Weijun suggested it, we just started doing it without investigating? It's not that simple!"

"The teacher said that without investigation, there is no right to speak! At the same time, the teacher also said that the future of agriculture lies in machinery."

"But, are only tractors like large combine harvesters mechanized? Has anyone researched miniaturized agricultural machinery? No! After Gu Weijun suggested it, Lao Zhou and I traveled around the countryside around Shijingshan."

"Talk to the commune cadres and farmer brothers. If nothing else, as long as this single-cylinder diesel tractor is developed, how many communes in Guangjing City want to buy it? Is it easier to raise cattle and horses or is it easier to raise a single-cylinder diesel tractor? Diesel easy! Visible!"

"You are like this because you have less labor! You can't be filled with bureaucratic thoughts! Follow me to the machine repair shop and just sweat it out!" After being criticized by Secretary Huang, Factory Director Nie quickly adjusted his mentality.

Guo Dabizi is a little confused today. I don’t know if it’s because of the news from the Ministry of Metallurgy, or what he’s thinking?He actually asked the fat old man Qian Weichang to carry the billets by himself, and also arranged the two apprentices previously arranged to work on other machine tools.

As soon as Secretary Huang and Director Nie entered the machine repair shop, they saw the fat old man moving steel billets loudly. Fortunately, although Yi Zhonghai did not object to Guo Dapizi's arrangement, he was also helping to move.
Director Nie's expression changed, and he was about to curse, but was stopped by Secretary Huang. Secretary Huang smiled slightly, and without saying anything else, he rolled up his sleeves and helped the fat old man carry the billet!

Guo Dayi's expression immediately changed. Why did they come to the workshop today?Don’t you need to go to the Metallurgical Department to get connections?Although Secretary Huang has been confirmed to be transferred, he is still the secretary of the steel rolling mill!Didn't this catch him off guard?

Guo Dabozi quickly called over the two apprentices from before, and shouted to Secretary Huang and Factory Director Nie at the same time: "Secretary, Director Nie, what should you two leaders do if they are exhausted from doing such heavy work? Xiao Guo , you two come over quickly and help move it!"

Secretary Huang didn't talk at all. After moving a piece of steel billet, he directly ordered Director Nie, "Director Nie, you can call Dr. Gu at the factory hospital later and ask him to come in the evening and show it to Scientist Qian." , so as not to cause any damage to the body! After all, he has never done heavy work before!"

After placing the billet, Director Nie replied: "Okay, Secretary, I understand!" Guo Dapi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and immediately explained: "Secretary, the tasks in the workshop today are a bit heavy, so I arranged for the small Guo and the others went to help another master, but it was Master Qian who took the initiative to move the billets!"

Secretary Huang looked at Mr. Guo up and down, and said with a smile: "Xiao Guo, you are the workshop director, so your work arrangements are reasonable! No need to explain!"

"Secretary, me!" Guo Da Paizi wanted to defend himself again.

Secretary Huang waved his hand to interrupt, and continued to tell Director Nie, "By the way, Director Nie, when you make the call, also call the people from the working team in the factory! What can you learn about the situation just by sitting in the office? "

When Guo Dabozi heard the word "working group", his legs went weak and his voice was filled with tears, "Secretary, factory director, don't! Don't!"

Secretary Huang suddenly straightened his face and shouted angrily: "Xiao Guo, what are you doing? The purpose of inviting the work team here is to let them go deep into the masses. What's going on with your attitude? Did you hide something during the previous clean-up in the factory?"

Then he ordered Director Nie, "Go and call Hao Chuan over here!"

Guo Dapizi was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground.

Secretary Huang glanced at him contemptuously, "What are you doing with me with this kind of mentality?"You fell down before I even exerted my strength!
Does the workshop director have to be clean?If you are clean at work, will you be clean in life?If you are clean in life, will you be clean in mind?You dare to defy me as a secretary in charge of ideological affairs. Even if I want to be transferred, I am still here!
There are always people who cannot see clearly the situation and take sides randomly!Don’t even take a pee and look in the mirror!
Soon Director Yang followed the working group and Hao Chuan to the maintenance workshop, pretending to be confused and asked: "Secretary Huang, what's going on?"

Secretary Huang looked serious and frowned, as if there was some big problem, "It's nothing originally, I just want the working group to go to the workshop more, participate in labor, and also have a deep understanding of the ideological trends of the worker comrades!" Then he said to the resident The cadres of the factory working group said: "Does what I said make sense?"

Everyone in the working group nodded!
Then Secretary Huang pointed at Mr. Guo, "But Xiao Guo was so frightened when he heard that people from the working group were coming? This is because he is secretly guilty! As a factory secretary, I feel very ashamed! I did not discover the comrades in time. Problems should be corrected in a timely manner!”

Then he turned around and told Hao Chuan, "Chief Hao, you are in charge of the security department and a member of the factory committee. You must cooperate well with the work of the working group! You must especially protect the comrades who report the situation!"

"We must let the comrades who reported the situation have no worries!"

Director Yang looked at Guo Dabozi who was sitting slumped on the ground, and he was having a fierce struggle in his heart. Is this person safe?Can it be saved?It seems that this old boy has done bad things without hiding it from him before!But after all, he had always supported his work before. Director Yang gritted his teeth and begged, "Director Guo's achievements and contributions in previous work are obvious to all!"

"Achievements?" Secretary Huang continued with a serious face, "Can achievements replace mistakes? Who in our workshop has no achievements?" Suddenly pointed to Yi Zhonghai, "Master Yi, you are also an old man in the factory. I believe you are very important to our steel rolling mill. If you have feelings, then you have nothing to react to?"

Yi Zhonghai's expression kept changing, but he still didn't dare to speak out, and finally did not stand up. Secretary Huang didn't take it seriously when he saw this, "It doesn't matter, the factory-based working group will always be in our factory! Comrades, we We must have the courage to fight against bad styles!”

Director Yang thought to himself, Guo Da is finished.
　After checking the information, the author was very puzzled that a workshop director in that era dared to take advantage of female workers?How dare a workshop director?
