Chapter Forty-Eight
After an hour and a half, the plates on each table were bottomed out, leaving only the remaining juices. The cups and plates are messy, the gangsters are talking and tying knots, with big tongues, what seven times a night, ten women and one husband abound, everyone has become a veteran in the love field, and all of them are cadres in the Fengyue field. What I am Zhao Zilong, a spear is invincible, what is Yi Zhiping, who did an indescribable event with a certain goddess on a certain day and night, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, Li Duoan's eyebrows fluttered when he heard it, and Guan Ke's face turned a little red when he heard it.
Some people thought that his ruddy face was drinking, but Li Duoan knew that he listened to jokes.
The guest drank one by one, and although the contents of the cup were the same color as the others, they were two different substances.
Li Duoan teased: "You can make the taste of drinking wine when you drink water, it's amazing!" he gave a thumbs up.
Guan Ke was annoyed and ashamed, pushed his fingers away, poured a large mouthful of boiled water, and said, "You are an old and disrespectful guy, I am ashamed to be with you." ”
"Pull it down, don't tell me you're not fascinated. ”
The passer was annoyed again and wanted to leave the table.
Li Duoan hurriedly grabbed him, "I'm talking nonsense, why are you angry? Just kidding, just kidding!"
The passer put his ass back on his seat, glared at Li Duoan, and then pretended not to hear anything, and took another sip of boiled water.
The gang staggered, and some even lay on the ground, but no one left early. With Fang Yuan's support, Li Yi leisurely paced in from outside the door again. He stood in front of him, slapped his face twice, and the gang fell completely silent.
"It's rare for everyone to be here today, and there is a coincidence that it happened to be completed the day before yesterday, so let's talk about it. Li Yi said solemnly.
Wang Xiaoye stared at the guest from the crack in the crowd, and when he heard this, he thought to himself, if you hadn't arranged today's party, how could it be so coincidental?
"Just the day before yesterday, the new Guan Ke who joined our Honggang family made those who owed us money crazy, and they had no choice but to return the money owed to us with profits. The amount of money recovered is small, but significant. I don't know when it came to Honggang, it was not as awe-inspiring as in the early years. Of course, there is a reason why we are deliberately low-key, but I think it is more that we have not shown great power. The customs guest recovered some arrears outside, and although the money was small, it kept Honggang's prestige from falling so quickly. It's not easy for a new young member to do this, shouldn't we reward him?"
Li Yi smiled and looked around, hoping to hear everyone's loud voices of approval.
The crowd began to talk among themselves, and the small sound of approval was not as loud as the sound of mosquitoes buzzing.
Li Yi always had a smile on his face, turning a blind eye to the almost unresponsive gangs, and opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Since everyone agrees, then naturally we have to consider the reward......
Before he could finish his words, Wang Xiaoye stood up and interrupted what he was about to say. "Old man, since he has made meritorious contributions, it is better to reward him with a position, let him be a department manager under Liu Shaoran, and if he has a good experience, he will definitely become a rare pillar in the future. ”
How many people have broken their heads in order to compete for the position of a manager, and Wang Xiaoye's gentle words gave up this position to others, which naturally aroused the jealousy of many people. No matter how you think about it, from an unemployed vagrant to a manager who manages dozens of people, it is also the carp in the sea that has jumped into the dragon gate. Many of the gang looked at the table with jealous eyes.
Li Yi paced again. In the eyes of a lover, although he and Guan Ke are not lovers, the more Li Yi looks at it, the more he likes it, and the more he looks at it, the more he wants to hand over the entire Honggang to him. He has struggled in the bloody wind and rain all his life, and his nerves have to be tense every moment, and at the same time, his head has been wondering from time to time whether this plan is flawed and whether that plan is flawed. Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, never relaxed. He'd been holding up the edifice for decades, he couldn't remember. People are going to grow old after all, and there will always be a day when they can't hold up the building.
He was tired and tired, and even if he wanted to continue to hold on, he was powerless. After working rigorously for most of his life, he wanted to be willful and give Honggang to that young man like a child.
He wanted to give him the devastated Honggang as a gift, hoping that after he opened the wrapper, his face would not be full of disappointment.
"The manager of a department is really good at training people. There are a lot of people and things to interact with, and you can learn a lot. But I thought that after two or three years, there would not be much to learn from this position. Guan Ke is a talented person, as you said, he is definitely the future pillar of Honggang. I see in him the courage, the wisdom, the heart, and he is definitely the best choice for my successor, and I want to ......"
Li Yi's words were interrupted again. Yang Dawei stood up again, "Big brother, I didn't mean to interrupt you on purpose, I just wanted to be honest and say my opinion." ”
The gang thought that Li Yi would be angry, furious, and trained Yang Dawei to the point of blood, but they didn't expect that the old man still maintained a warm smile, and he didn't think it was angry at all, as if he didn't think that Yang Dawei's behavior was disrespectful to him.
If it is said that Li Duoan is admired in reverse, then Guan Ke really admires the leader of Honggang. His bearing is not pretended to be calm, but really calm, from the inside out, infecting everyone. His smile wasn't fake, but he really didn't care.
However, the gateway is not too interested in sitting in the first place, and compared to such an ambitious goal, what he wants is really simple and simple.
Li Yi smiled and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”
Yang Dawei slightly restrained his somewhat aggressive posture and said: "Since the establishment of Honggang, there are not 1,000 brothers who have made meritorious contributions, but 800, who has not licked blood on the knife edge? Is the eldest brother going to throw the entire Honggang to such a young man because of such an insignificant achievement?"
"It's not the same time it used to be. Times change, some things are naturally differently defined, and you can't always look at things with the same old eyes. Maybe in the past, it was not something to show off to get back a little bit of money, but now, even if it is just to earn a little bit of glory for Honggang, it should be praised. ”
"If you do that, will it feel a little unfair to those brothers who died?"
"The past is the past, the present is the present, how can we compare the two? It doesn't hurt to talk about it verbally, because there is no online platform, but if we take it seriously, the past should be compared with the past, and the present should be compared with the present. What's the point of confusing the past with the present, like comparing our universe with another universe we don't know?"
"You don't understand what your brothers say. In fact, he has heard it very clearly, but if you want to mingle with everyone, you must not understand, "My brothers and I only know that blood and sweat cannot be shed in vain, and there must be a minimum of fairness." ”
Yang Dawei's words already have a sense of confrontation, and everyone can hear it. Some people who followed Li Yi in the early years couldn't help frowning.
Seeing that the words were about to compete with each other, and in the end it became a scene of stiffness with each other, and cold sweat broke out on everyone's heads. If the two of them tear their faces, will Pingle City, which has been calm for more than ten years, become a slaughtering ground?
Facing the thorny words, Li Yi directly ignored the past and continued to talk to the other party about his big truth, but it seemed to be a little off-topic: "Life has been in a hurry for decades, and it is really hard, so you need a reason to chase it to forget those pains." There are many different names for this head, some people call it a hobby, playing ball, listening to songs, and soothing the busy mood. If you zoom it out a little more, it can be a life goal. A person has been working hard all his life, and the bumpy road he has walked has been ignored in the continuous running forward. If you zoom it up a little more, you can also call it hope. It always makes people feel like they see hope, but the reality is often cruel, and a bright future usually exists only in people's dreams. ”
"Hope is hope because it is unrealizable. But you can't deny its significance. Its significance often lies in the fact that it is the greatest driving force for many people to move forward bravely. ”
"That's the good side, but there's also the opposite side to the definition of life. Hobbies can also be vulgar habits, and life goals can also be called obsessions. If you are blinded by greed and stubbornness, the hope you see is no longer hope, but the darkest thing. ”
In fact, in the final analysis, it is the individual. ”
"Power, money, if you think they're important, they're going to make up a big part of your life. Of course, they do matter, but we can't take them too seriously. You always think that everything is based on these two things, and that's also an obsession. If you are obsessed too much, your mind will be clouded. You think you're smart, and I think you're smart, but the cleverness used for power and money is just a little cleverness. ”
Yang Dawei listened to his admonition and didn't speak, then he asked, "What kind of smart does the old man think?"
