Chapter 84: The Last Day of 1920 (1)
There were twelve people sitting at a table, and Hu Wenkai meant that if there was a dinner party in the evening, he would drink a little red at noon. Hu Wenkai introduced Wang Changrong to everyone before the banquet: "This Wang Changrong must be known to some people here, and some people don't. Let me formally introduce that Wang Changrong is about to take up the post of deputy governor of Su Changdao and governor of Nantong County, and he also has the position of deputy general manager of Xingye Industrial Tianfen Industrial Base. Everyone applauded and raised a glass in welcome. ”
Wang Changrong stood up and said: "Everyone, I, Wang Changrong, am willing to follow the boss and create the glory of Xingye Industry with you, cheers!" ”
After drinking the wine in the glass, he wiped his mouth, took out a small wooden box from his briefcase, and handed it to Carrotta and said, "Boss, although Wang Changrong is new to the city, he still knows the rules, this is my gift for rice." ”
A table of people laughed crazy, this Corotta gift habit has been spread to Nanjing, Carrotta did not hesitate, directly opened the box, inside is a jade bracelet of excellent color, too valuable, although she can't put it down, she still pushed it to Wang Changrong and said that it is too precious to accept, as for the matter of eating and asking for gifts, it is a joke, don't take it seriously.
Wang Changrong saw that Carrotta refused to accept the gift, and his face was a little unbearable, Hu Wenkai asked Carrotta to accept it, took out an M1911 pistol from his pocket and asked Carotta to give it back to Wang Changrong and said: "You will be indispensable in the future with me, and this gun will be used for your self-defense." ”
Only Lao Yi and Wang Xihai knew about Hu Wenkai's efforts to suppress Huang Jinrong, and the rest of the people just thought that he was a business wizard and industrialist. When he said this, he froze, and James raised his glass and took the lead to welcome Wang Changrong to join.
Wang Xihai, Li Congshan and Wang Changrong talked after being familiar with each other for a while, and Carrotta, an American silly girl, liked the bracelet very much, and directly wore the jade bracelet on her left hand.
After eating, a few people wanted to go to Lao Yi's house to play, and Lao Yi took the guitar in the living room to the car when he left. Carrotta and Liu's mother were busy cleaning up the restaurant, lying on the sofa drinking Longjing tea, looking at the bracelet that Carrotta took off to clean up the restaurant in front of him, this Wang Changrong was going to follow him.
This bracelet is at least 500 oceans or more, the texture is warm and delicate, the whole is a rich green, the color is very uniform and pure, and the shape is full and round. In any case, he cannot be placed in an important post without being tempered at the grassroots level.
Liu Dapao's group of bandits stepped into the territory of Tianfen in the evening, and more than 40 people were discovered by peasants who had left their jobs when they bypassed the main road and walked on a remote field road, and immediately reported it to the village committee.
While sending two peasant households to the headquarters and the township government to inform them, they asked the villagers to follow the group from a distance. Jiang Qiuming received the news from the farmers and realized that the bandits had touched it, and while sending people to gather the team, he asked Xu Fusheng, the deputy captain of the militia group, to drive a truck to the warehouse to pick up machine guns and *. Large tracked tractors with machine guns were parked in front of the factory area, gunboats lit fires offshore to protect the harbor, and trains lit fires on the way to the factory area.
After a while, Xu Fusheng returned with the truck, and more than 100 civilian team members and employees received pistols and*. Each person was armed with a spear and two pistols*, and thirty men guarded the factory area, while the rest were divided into seven trucks and went down to outflank the bandits under the guidance of the head of the village committee. Jiang Qiuming was very nervous, if there were bandits breaking into the factory area and the factory was damaged, he would not be able to escape punishment, and even if he did not punish himself, he would regret it for life.
At noon, Carrota was very smelly and boiled water for a bath for the evening dinner, and the sun warmed the bedroom on the second floor on a winter afternoon. Next to the bed are two large suitcases and luggage that Carrota has sorted out, and Hu Wenkai thinks these two suitcases are in the way.
After dragging the suitcase to the study, clapping his hands and sitting back on the recliner in the bedroom to bask in the sun. The lazy sun shines on his face, and the clocks at the bedside make a ticking sound. Carrotta meowed like a kitten and went upstairs lightly, he had already heard the sound of her footsteps going upstairs and the scent of her body and deliberately pretended to be asleep.
A small hand blindfolded his eyes and a giggling laugh came from it, and his lips were imprinted on his mouth. When he began to cater to her, she lightly stepped out of the way, jumped on the bed and shouted: "It's cold, Wen Kai, you are still going to be lascivious in the daytime." Laughing and getting into the bed.
When he began to close his eyes and recuperate, a very tempting voice came: Little brother Wenkai, lie down with me for a while. Jumping on the bed and getting into the bed, I heard a sentence: today is not a safe period.
Straightening her shoulders to rest her damp head on it, she let out a long sigh and said, "Little pig, you see your man like this?" The happiest thing for me is to hold you and quietly feel the passage of time. ”
Carrotta writhed contentedly in his arms, trying to find a comfortable place to lie down and fall asleep for a while. The serene face unfolded before his eyes, and he gazed lovingly. The sun shone on the corner of the quilt, and the room was warm.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the factory on Yatian South Road gradually became more and more crowded, Hu Wenkai drove a car to stop in front of the office building, got out of the car to help Carrotta open the car door and hugged her to the conference room. Pushing open the door of the conference room, he asked, "Have Yang Siliang and Wu Hongxia arrived?" ”
These two people and Jiang Qiuming are managers that Hu Wenkai is particularly concerned about, and Yang Siliang's overall planning ability and Jiang Qiuming's organizational ability, and Wu Hongxia's propaganda ability are all praised by him.
"Boss, we're here." Yang Siliang stood up and said.
"Okay, then let's have a short meeting, I'll leave for the United States on the 3rd." Hu Wenkai sat down at the chair of the conference table.
After introducing Wang Changrong, Yang Siliang was responsible for the operation of the company during the period when Hu Wenkai went to the United States. Yang Siliang was in Shanghai three days a week and four days in Tianfen, where Tianfen was managed by Wang Changrong.
Jiang Qiuming became deputy governor of Haimen County a week later, and the head of Tianfen Township was taken over by Wu Hongxia. Tianfen Industrial Base should fully support the construction of the railway from Nantong County to the Tianyong Line, and the construction of steel slag and coal ash cement plants will be put into operation within two months. Give a bundle of drawings to Yang Siliang.
Yang Siliang simply reported the situation of Tianfen Industrial Base to you, which is basically operating normally, and the products are in short supply. In particular, stainless steel and electrolytic copper ships are waiting for cargo in port, and the ironworks are expected to ignite and test the operation next month.
The first phase of the worker training has been completed and more than 500 workers have been trained, and the second phase of the training has already begun, and 1,300 workers will be trained. Yang Siliang's report is recognized, and it is not possible for anyone to build a factory from a land with nothing in just a few months.
The dinner party started at six o'clock sharp, and the arrival of more than 500 people caught Lao Yi off guard, but fortunately, the factory people borrowed a few tables from nearby restaurants to solve the problem. Hu Wenkai led a group of managers to greet the guests in front of the auditorium, and Dewey, Adele, Edmund, and the directors of the Board of Directors welcomed them into the auditorium one by one. The auditorium is heated, streamers float on the roof, and the three-meter-high gate is pasted with large golden characters for the 1921 welcome party of Xingye Industries.
Hu Wenkai and Carotta accompanied Dewey and Adele at the table, and Lao Yi took the stage to announce that tonight's party would be divided into three parts, dinner, performance and lottery, and dance. In the applause, Lao Yi happily jumped off the stage.
Dewey smiled and said to Hu Wenkai: "You are now a big family, and you have hundreds of employees in just a few months. ”
Hu Wenkai said modestly: "It is thanks to Mr. Dewey's care that Xingye Industry is what it is today. ”
Dewey waved his hand and said, "Brother Wenkai, let's have a drink and wish you success in your career."
Dewey is now tightly tied to Hu Wenkai's chariot, and Lao Yi sends gifts on time every month. Several of the patrol heads are receiving monthly offerings from Xingye Industries, and the company has replaced the influence of Paisa in the French Concession.
Edmund put his arm around Hu Wenkai to make sure to toast, and Adele turned her head to talk to Carrotta. Hu Wenkai was a little embarrassed and pulled Edmund to Lao Yi's table. Hu Wenkai is also proud in his heart, he must drink at every table, the heating is turned on very much, the auditorium is noisy, the smell of smoke and wine is mixed together, the faces of the employees who go to the banquet are sweating, and Li Congshan asks people to open the floor-to-ceiling windows.
