Chapter 123: The appreciation of the big boss, Yi Zhonghai lost his apprentice and lost his soldiers

As the director of the steel rolling mill, Director Zheng still has the power to deal with Jia Dongxu. As Chief Chen said just now, there is no need to ask him for instructions on such a small matter.

But after all, Chief Chen was present at the scene, and as a subordinate he had to follow this process, otherwise it would be an overstepping of authority and ignoring the presence of his leader.

It can also be seen that no one, whether the factory leaders or the superiors including Chief Chen, opposed the punishment of Jia Dongxu, which is enough to show that everyone dislikes him.

As those in a higher position, they certainly would not intentionally make things difficult for a small figure like Jia Dongxu, because doing so would not only appear to be intolerant, but also very lacking in magnanimity.

But Jia Dongxu’s performance just now was really unbearable.

The previous behavior is understandable, but the subsequent constant troublemaking against Wang Weiguo is completely different.

Almost no workers present sympathized with Jia Dongxu about his experience. Instead, they felt happy and at the same time relieved.

If it weren't for Jia Dongxu, maybe some of them would have done the same.

After all, if they can get more meat by making a fuss, many people are willing to risk their face.

Jia Dongxu was taking the risk for them.

The person who could not accept it the most was naturally Jia Dongxu himself.

Just when he was about to question the factory leaders and superiors, Yi Zhonghai, who obviously sensed something was wrong, stepped forward and slammed a big shovel on Jia Dongxu's face.

"master……"

Jia Dongxu turned his head in shock, looking at the somewhat unfamiliar Yi Zhonghai in front of him, his face full of disbelief.

"Jia Dongxu, wake up!"

"If you make a mistake, admit it and don't be stubborn about it."

"Director Zheng said that as long as you reform yourself and recognize your mistakes, you can return to your original position."

"This is already the leaders' tolerance towards you. What else do you want?"

"Dongxu, you should thank your leaders for giving you a chance to make amends!"

"..."

Even though he was not in the officialdom, the experienced Yi Zhonghai had been the "big boss" in the courtyard for many years. Naturally, he could see that the current situation was not favorable to Jia Dongxu.

The factory leaders have publicly made and announced the punishment for Jia Dongxu, and none of the superiors have objected. It is clear that there is no room for maneuver in this matter. Begging for sympathy is no longer effective. If Jia Dongxu continues to make trouble, it will not be as simple as cleaning the toilets and renovating them.

Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to step in and beat and scold Jia Dongxu to wake him up and prevent him from doing stupid things again.

It was not known whether it was because of Yi Zhonghai's action or because he was frightened, but Jia Dongxu calmed down and stopped making trouble.

Next.

Yi Zhonghai led Jia Dongxu to bow to apologize and review before all the leaders, and assured them: "Director Zheng, Chief Chen, and all the leaders, I am very sorry. It was my failure to discipline my apprentice, which led him to make a mistake in a moment of impulse.

We obey the factory's penalties and decisions unconditionally.

Thanks to the leaders for giving me the opportunity, Jia Dongxu will definitely reform himself, seriously reflect on and correct his own problems, and return to his original position as soon as possible.

As his master, I will supervise and educate him well, so please rest assured, leaders!"

Yi Zhonghai's action and Jia Dongxu's cessation of mischief made the factory leaders look much better.

Although there was some suspicion of avoiding the main issue, and regardless of whether Yi Zhonghai's beating of his apprentice was right or wrong, their unanimous idea at the moment was to get Jia Dongxu and Yi Zhonghai, the master and apprentice, to get out of here as soon as possible so that they would not continue to be an eyesore to their superiors.

Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai was tactful. When he saw that the leaders did not express any opinion, he quickly took Jia Dongxu and left.

He couldn't bear to stay here any longer!
It was supposed to be a great day for the assessment, but today is such bad luck!
soon.

Under the organization and maintenance of order by the factory leaders, the canteen quickly returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

However, the little incident just now made all the factory leaders feel very embarrassed and awkward.

It was a great opportunity for a superior leader to show off his abilities when he came to inspect, but it was ruined because of a common worker causing trouble.

No matter how well they performed today, it was all wiped out because of this incident.

They no longer ask for any praise from their leaders, they just hope that nothing unexpected will happen in the future.

But if there is an exception, it is only Li Huaide.

When other factory leaders felt unlucky and unlucky, Li Huaide, the logistics director, showed off his talents in front of his superiors and made his presence felt.

The trouble Jia Dongxu caused just now actually highlights his good management and thoughtful thinking.

Only Li Huaide himself knew that all this was thanks to his younger brother!
This little brother Wang Weiguo is simply a blessing that has come to my doorstep!

When they were queuing up for food, Chief Chen saw Wang Weiguo, who was still helping out at the cafeteria window and serving the steel mill workers, and couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Xiao Wang, have you had lunch yet?"

"Not yet. I'm not hungry yet. I plan to eat later."

When Chief Chen asked this, Wang Weiguo obviously guessed something. He had already eaten, but he was lying with his eyes open.

Upon hearing this, Chief Chen said, "How can that be possible? Why don't you stop working and hand over the work at hand to others, and come out and have dinner with us."

"Isn't this bad?"

Faced with Chief Chen's invitation, Wang Weiguo did not agree hastily, but pretended to hesitate for a moment.

"What's wrong?"

After hearing Wang Weiguo's words, Chief Chen apologized and said, "You were invited by Xiao Li to come to our steel mill to help and rescue us.

Logically speaking, you are the guest and we are the hosts. It is not right for the guests to be busy while the hosts eat first.

What’s more, what happened just now almost made you suffer. This is our problem, and I haven’t even apologized to you properly!

If you don't mind, please give me, an old man, some face and let me take advantage of my age for once. I can't let others laugh at me when I go out and say that I'm not hospitable and not as good as a young comrade, right?"

Things had come to this point. If Wang Weiguo continued to pretend to be reserved, he would be offending Chief Chen. Besides, a group of factory leaders also began to persuade him, so Wang Weiguo had no choice but to agree.

soon.

Under the envious gazes of many workers and even factory leaders, Wang Weiguo came out, prepared his meal, and sat down with Chief Chen and others.

While eating, Chief Chen and Wang Weiguo chatted about family matters, and other leaders also praised the dishes cooked by Wang Weiguo.

On the one hand, the big pot of food Wang Weiguo cooked was so delicious that it surprised them.

Although everyone knew that Wang Weiguo was a level five cook at Fengze Garden and that he had learned his trade from a famous chef, no one would have thought that Wang Weiguo's big pot dishes would be so outstanding.

Especially when compared with the dishes made by other chefs in the cafeteria, his level of cooking was immediately more evident.

It was Chief Chen's admiring attitude towards Wang Weiguo that made them dare not be careless.

Halfway through the canteen dinner, when the atmosphere was just right, Director Zheng, who had been laughing and agreeing, suddenly spoke to Wang Weiguo with concern: "Comrade Weiguo, are your parents doing well over there recently?"

Being asked this question suddenly, Wang Weiguo was a little stunned when he saw Director Zheng in front of him showing concern like an elder. He then replied, "Director Zheng, thank you for your concern. They are doing well."

"Why? You also know Comrade Xiao Wang's parents?"

It was obvious that Wang Weiguo and Director Zheng were not very familiar with each other, so Chief Chen asked with some curiosity.

Upon hearing this, the other leaders also cast their glances over.

Factory Director Zheng replied a little embarrassedly, "Chief Chen, I just suddenly remembered that Wang Weiguo's parents were originally skilled workers in our steel mill. However, two years ago, when the country called for support for the construction of the Northwest, the couple responded positively and took the initiative to sign up to go to places with difficult conditions. They can be said to be activists who contribute to the country's construction..."

It’s not that Director Zheng thought of this, but his secretary just found out about it and told him.

Otherwise, how could he remember all the workers in the steel mill, let alone their families.

However, he did have an impression of Wang Weiguo's parents. After all, they were advanced workers in the factory who responded to the call to go to the Northwest to provide aid in construction.

As for saying that he knew Wang Weiguo, that was purely a way of currying favor and building a relationship.

"Oh? In that case, we are still a family!"

When Chief Chen heard Director Zheng’s explanation, he was immediately happy.

Although Wang Weiguo's parents went to the Northwest to provide aid in construction, it could not change the fact that they were once workers in a steel mill. In a sense, Wang Weiguo could be considered a child of a steel mill, and Chief Chen was the top leader of this system, so it was reasonable to say so.

After Chief Chen gave the conclusion that they were one family, the eyes of the leaders present looked at Wang Weiguo with a little more gentleness and kindness.

……

the other side.

Just when Wang Weiguo was appreciated by Chief Chen and treated with courtesy by other leaders, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu, who left here in shame, had already arrived at another cafeteria.

Just looking at the delicious meat, vegetables and steamed buns in front of them, neither Yi Zhonghai nor Jia Dongxu had any appetite at all.

"Master, I was tricked by that bastard Wang Weiguo."

After a long silence, Jia Dongxu finally couldn't help it and complained to Yi Zhonghai with a look of resentment: "You didn't see at that time how hateful Wang Weiguo was. When I asked him to serve me food, he shook off most of the full spoonful of meat and put it all into my lunch box. He even took away the fattest piece of meat..."

The more Jia Dongxu spoke, the more hateful he became, but Yi Zhonghai just kept a sullen face and did not express any opinion.

Jia Dongxu, who didn't seem to care about this and just wanted to vent his anger, continued: "Wang Weiguo clearly wanted to trick me. If he had told me earlier that those regulations were issued by the factory leaders, I wouldn't have bothered him. I'm not..."

Hearing Jia Dongxu's regretful voice, Yi Zhonghai sighed helplessly.

I'm afraid even Jia Dongxu himself doesn't believe these words.

If he was so easy to talk to and sensible, things wouldn't have gotten to this point.

But what can Yi Zhonghai say?

"The most hateful thing is that Wang Weiguo has already become a level 5 cook, but he has been deliberately hiding it from us. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have misunderstood him, let alone reported him to the factory leaders for lying..."

Level 5 cook!

Jia Dongxu didn’t know how Wang Weiguo did it.

Hasn't he always been unable to become a master?
How come he suddenly became a level five cook?
Even now, Jia Dongxu still couldn't believe it.

Speaking of this matter, it’s not Jia Dongxu’s fault. Even Yi Zhonghai found it outrageous.

Not to mention Jia Dongxu, even Yi Zhonghai didn’t know how Wang Weiguo did it.

It overturned their previous cognition in an instant.

"Dongxu, don't think too much about it. Perform well next time and try to get back to the workshop as soon as possible."

At this point, Yi Zhonghai didn't know what he could do except comfort Jia Dongxu.

"Master, I feel bad! How come I became a toilet cleaner out of nowhere?"

Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu felt an urge to cry.

He was feeling very proud of himself today, thinking that he could pass the assessment and get a salary increase. However, he was demoted before the assessment even started.

The key is that sweeping the toilet is a humiliation for Jia Dongxu.

How could a young man in his prime be associated with sweeping toilets?

Not long after.

As the master and disciple were complaining and comforting each other, they suddenly felt that there were more discussions around them, and many eyes were on them.

There are no impervious walls in the world.

Obviously, before the meal was over, what happened in the cafeteria had already spread here, and someone recognized Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu.

Finding himself the object of gossip and ridicule, Jia Dongxu naturally didn't have the face to stay here any longer. He didn't even want to eat, and simply threw his lunch box and left.

Seeing that he had not even taken two bites of the vegetables and meat, Jia Dongxu suddenly threw them to the ground. Yi Zhonghai, who had suffered an unexpected disaster, looked at Jia Dongxu who left here angrily, with a depressed face.

There was no way to eat such delicious food, so Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to pick up the buns on the ground, take the lunch box and leave.

Although the steamed bun was covered in dust, the inside was still edible.

Jia Dongxu has no chance, but he still has to take an exam in the afternoon, so he has to eat well.

What was frustrating was that while others were eating meat with big mouthfuls, Yi Zhonghai could only hide alone and secretly eat the dusty steamed buns.

Yi Zhonghai finally made it to the afternoon and thought he had a chance to catch his breath, but he found that because of what happened at noon with Jia Dongxu, he was still the "focus" in everyone else's eyes.

He didn't know if he was too sensitive, but Yi Zhonghai always felt that the way people looked at him was not right, and they were always pointing fingers at him behind his back.

From noon till now, Yi Zhonghai has been in a state of tension. When it was his turn for the assessment, Yi Zhonghai, who had originally been confident, was ultimately stuck on time and could barely finish processing the parts on hand.

Just as Yi Zhonghai was secretly rejoicing, the examiner loudly announced after checking and measuring the parts he had processed:

"Workshop 1, Yi Zhonghai, failed the seventh-level fitter assessment!"
