Liu Shoucheng has never been to Zhou's house since Liu Dongmei and Tie Min got married.

He regretted the promise he made to his daughter, mainly because he didn't expect to receive so much gift money. If Liu Dongmei insists on letting him fulfill his promise, although he is very reluctant, he can still meet his daughter's request.

If nothing else, just for his baby son Liu Dongqing, if he can get Tiemin's care in the future, he will have to spend this money.

Fortunately, his daughter was not so difficult, although she was unhappy and never returned to her parents' house after getting married, she still did not force him to take out the money.

Liu Shoucheng has a very good face, he knows that he has broken his promise, and he is embarrassed to come to Zhou's house to eat again.

He finished making breakfast for his son early in the morning, sent his son to school, stayed at home to feed the chickens, cleaned up the yard, and lived a retired life early.

"I said in-laws, why didn't you go to work?" Zhou Zhiqiang opened the door of the hospital and pushed his bicycle into the hospital.

"Why are you here?" Liu Shoucheng greeted him, let Zhou Zhiqiang into the house and said, "What's wrong." ”

"Miss you, come and see you." Zhou Zhiqiang sat down with a smile, took out a box of big front doors, and wanted to give Liu Shoucheng cigarettes.

"Come to my house, why are you embarrassed to smoke your cigarettes." Liu Shoucheng opened the cabinet door and took out a box of Dazhongjiu cigarettes.

Liu Shoucheng applied for retirement due to illness, and before the application was approved, he took sick leave at home.

"What class are you doing today?" Liu Shoucheng wanted to make tea for Zhou Zhiqiang.

"Off duty." Zhou Zhiqiang said: "I'll ask you to go out of the mountain and take care of that unlucky son for me." ”

Zhou Zhiqiang got straight to the point and learned what Dong Zhensheng said early in the morning to Liu Shoucheng.

"This kid doesn't want to rush to the good." Liu Shoucheng became angry when he heard it.

He didn't know where he got the news, saying that Dong Zhensheng had applied to the main leaders of the station to promote Tie Min to be the director of the workshop.

According to the normal cadre appointment procedure, the leaders did not approve Dong Zhensheng's application, and sent Hou Ping to the operation workshop in order to replace Dong Zhensheng as director.

Dong Zhensheng would rather not be the deputy stationmaster, but also stay in the operation workshop, just to cultivate iron people.

Zhou Zhiqiang heard Liu Shoucheng's words, and tears of emotion swirled in his eyes.

He said: "Our old Zhou family has accumulated virtue in all their lives, in exchange for Lao Dong treating Tiemin like this." ”

"I have to say that our children have this ability." Although Liu Shoucheng did not know Dong Zhensheng very well, he only knew that Dong Zhensheng was an upright person based on his understanding of Dong Zhensheng's reputation, and he really wanted to cultivate a trustworthy and good cadre for the unit.

"What should I do now?" Zhou Zhiqiang rubbed his hands anxiously.

None of their old Zhou family generations have been officials, and it just so happened that such a good thing made Tiemin stand up, but unfortunately the iron people couldn't support the wall, Zhou Zhiqiang was in a hurry, and he couldn't think of a way.

Liu Shoucheng walked around the room, thinking about how to make Tiemin change his attitude.

"Does Dongmei know about this?" Liu Shoucheng asked Zhou Zhiqiang.

"I haven't had time to tell her yet." Zhou Zhiqiang said: "It's all in vain, Dongmei listens to Tiemin in everything." ”

"Isn't that confused?" Liu Shoucheng stomped his feet and said, "Let's go, let's go to your house, I'll talk to Dongmei about this." ”

Liu Shoucheng deliberately went to the yard to catch a little rooster and came to Zhou's house with Zhou Zhiqiang.

Tie Min went to work and left, and Liu Dongmei was cleaning the room.

When she saw Liu Shoucheng and Zhou Zhiqiang walking into the house, she was surprised: "Dad, what's wrong." ”

Tie Min deliberately came to the office half an hour early, he cleaned the office, wiped the floor of the organ corridor again, and then went to the shunting group locker room, changed into work clothes, and prepared to follow the team to the scene.

"Zhou Tiemin, what do you mean?" Hou Ping appeared at the door of the shunting group's lounge, glared at Tie Min and said, "I can't see your figure early in the morning, what are you doing here." ”

"What's the matter, tell me." Iron Min unconsciously clenched his fists again.

He and people like Hou Ping don't want to say a word, and they have to do it if they are in a hurry.

"Follow me." Hou Ping turned around and left. Seeing that Tie Min was standing there and didn't move, Hou Ping was unhappy again, and he said, "What's the matter, I can't instruct you." ”

Tie Min followed behind Hou Ping, and the two returned to the workshop director's office one after the other.

Hou Ping deliberately opened the door, sat in Dong Zhensheng's place, motioned for Tie Min to sit in his place, and said, "I don't want to say anything more to you about the past." From today onwards, you sit in my place and I hope you will cherish this opportunity. ”

Dong Zhensheng yesterday because Hou Ping bullied Tiemin, and he exchanged views with Hou Ping from a private perspective.

It shows that Tie Min is a hard-working person with rich work experience, and has the ability to assist Hou Ping in managing the operation workshop in the future, and hopes that Hou Ping can treat Tie Min correctly.

Unexpectedly, Hou Ping exploded when he heard it. He claimed to be a cadre appointed by station D, hated nepotism the most, and threatened to report the matter to station D.

The quarrel between the two people got an ideal effect in Hou Ping's view.

Dong Zhensheng was urgently promoted to the deputy station chief in charge of the operation work, and Hou Ping acted as the director of the operation workshop.

Hou Ping didn't know the premise that Dong Zhensheng agreed to leave the operation workshop, thinking that he had won a big victory, and finally drove Dong Zhensheng away and grasped the administrative power of the operation workshop.

Early this morning, at the handover meeting of the middle-level cadres at the station, a new appointment was announced: Zhou Tiemin was appointed as the deputy director of the operation workshop.

Hou Ping was dumbfounded at that time.

Without the leader's explanation, he knew that all this was arranged by Dong Zhensheng.

One is the deputy station manager in charge of the operation work, and the other is the deputy director of the workshop who works for work, and he is caught in the middle, and the taste can be imagined.

Dong Zhensheng specially appointed Hou Ping to announce the appointment to Tiemin on behalf of the station leaders at the shift meeting.

Tiemin sat there with his head bowed, not saying a word.

"Zhou Tiemin, I'm waiting for your reply." Hou Ping's face tightened, and he wanted to take the lead in momentum.

"What do you want me to say?" Tiemin spoke, and he was full of vigilance.

"You can accept it or you can reject it." Hou Ping knew it was nonsense, but he had to say it.

He was even contemplating, choosing some irritating words to anger the Iron Folk and make him refuse to accept the appointment.

"You don't know what you said about it." Tie Min smiled and said a sentence that was about equivalent to the words of Hou Ping's eighth generation ancestor.

Hou Ping hesitated a few times, speechless.

Tie Min was right, it was the station D committee that appointed him as the deputy director of the workshop, and Hou Ping could only obey.

"I want to listen to your attitude." Hou Ping made the right choice.

As the director, he wants to find an opportunity to defeat Tiemin from Tiemin's words.

"I accept this appointment." Tie Min said something that Hou Ping least wanted to hear.

"Let's talk about your next steps." Although Hou Ping was 100% disappointed, in the face of the helpless reality, he could only maintain his dignity as a director in form.

"I haven't figured it out yet." After Tetsumin finished speaking, he got up and left.

"What are you doing?" Hou Ping was very dissatisfied with Tiemin's performance.

Tie Min smiled at Hou Ping and walked straight out.

Hey, that's a cruel guy who doesn't talk much.

Hou Ping was a little afraid of Tiemin, and he suddenly had a sense of crisis, knowing that sooner or later he would be replaced by Tiemin.

Tie Min left the director's office and returned to Zhao Miao's office, where Zhao Miao smiled mysteriously at him.

Tiemin smiled, sat down and began to pack his things.

"Don't forget to treat me to dinner." Zhao Miao said in a low voice.

"Anytime." Tetsumin replied briskly.

"Why don't you ask me why you invite me to dinner?" Zhao Miao didn't expect Tie Min to answer so simply.

"Do you need a reason to invite you to dinner?" Tiemin said very seriously.

Zhao Miao's face flushed, and she was silent for a few seconds and said, "Yesterday, Director Dong looked for me and asked me in front of Hou Ping, did you see Tie Min beating Xiao Hou, guess what I said." ”

"I don't see it." Tetsumin laughed.

"I really didn't see it." Zhao Miao said very seriously.

"You're not afraid of monkey retaliation." Tie Min was really worried about Zhao Miao.

"I'm afraid of him!" Zhao Miao raised her voice, and suddenly felt out of shape, she stuck out her tongue and said, "He doesn't dare to do anything to me." ”

Tie Min smiled unnaturally, and had a sense of urgency to make contact with Wang Li for the first time.

"Team up with him, even if you let go of your hands and feet, forgive him and don't dare to do anything to you." Zhao Miao said with confidence.

"How do you know that?" As soon as Tie Min's words came out, he couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Miao was puzzled.

Tetsumin smiled but didn't answer.

That night, Tiemin came home from work and didn't see Liu Dongmei. He threw himself headlong onto the kang, pondering his next step.

The door opened, and Liu Shoucheng walked in drunk and said, "It's time to get off work, why don't you go to the house to eat." ”

When Tie Min saw Liu Shoucheng, he was forced to sit up and said, "I'm tired and want to sleep for a while." ”

Liu Shoucheng sat down uninvited, opened the conversation box and said, "I have officially submitted an application for sick retirement." ”

Tiemin sat there and listened silently.

"When the application is approved, the next step is up to you." Liu Shoucheng told Tie Min that he had already inquired about it, exchanging the old for the young, in line with the principle of where to come and go, in which workshop Lao Tzu retired, and the new workers were arranged to that workshop, he said: "The work arrangement of Holly depends on what you say to Feng Guozhang." ”

Tiemin nodded silently.

"No problem." Liu Shoucheng asked.

"I don't know which position is better." Tie Min asked Liu Shoucheng to inquire first, and then go to plead with Feng Guozhang.

"I've already inquired and will go to the steel mill to stay." Liu Shoucheng whispered: "It would be better if Dongqing could be arranged in the planning group." ”

"What does the planning team do?" Tiemin asked.

"The person in charge of the wagon plan is not small." Liu Shoucheng deliberately emphasized personal benefits.

Tie Min didn't speak, he made up his mind to pay attention, no matter what, he couldn't let Liu Dongqing go to work in the planning team.

At a young age and without any social experience, he was afraid that Liu Dongqing would not be able to grasp himself and make mistakes.

"Alright, it's time to talk about you." This is the main purpose of Liu Shoucheng to meet Tiemin. He said: "Your father said, none of your ancestors of the old Zhou family are officials, you are his hope, don't miss this good opportunity." ”

"I don't have the crooked belly to swallow this sickle head." Tetsumin made his attitude clear.

"Lao Dong is kind, pulling the collar and dragging you up, you can't be ignorant." Liu Shoucheng took advantage of the strength of wine, rolled up his arms and sleeves, and used his own personal experience as an example to illustrate the importance of having a cadre order in a railway enterprise for his future development.

Tiemin listened silently and secretly made up his mind.

Liu Shoucheng talked exaggeratedly, saying that he had worked in the railway all his life, and he did not dare to say everything about the affairs of various units, but at least he could know that being a cadre was definitely the dream of every on-site worker.

The mystery of managing people and being managed can only be truly appreciated by experiencing it personally.

Liu Shoucheng's mouth was full of foam, and he was not interrupted until Liu Dongmei came in with a pot of tea.

"Dad, it's not early, drink some tea, relieve hangover, and go home quickly." Liu Dongmei poured her father a cup of tea and said, "It's too late to go back, I should think about you." ”

Liu Shoucheng is also really obedient, to be precise, he is afraid that Liu Dongmei will mention that money again in front of Tiemin.

He got up to say goodbye, and Tie Min and Liu Dongmei were sent outside the hospital.

Zhou Zhiqiang waited in the cave of the building early, but he didn't have the courage to come to the lower house, and together with Liu Shoucheng, he persuaded Tiemin to cherish the opportunity.

Liu Shoucheng got on his bicycle and left.

Tiemin didn't even look at his father, he turned around and went back to his cabin.

After a short time, Liu Dongmei came back with the food and said to Tiemin: "You can't go to the house to eat for the rest of your life." ”

"I'll talk to you about something." Tiemin repeated yesterday's topic, and this time he explained the situation: "I don't want to go to work anymore. ”

"If you don't go to work, what will we eat and drink?" Liu Dongmei knew that in order for Tiemin to refuse to be an improper leader, her father was invited by her father-in-law to come to the house to do Tiemin's ideological work.

"I want to make a lot of money doing business." Tie Min's words aroused Liu Dongmei's strong interest.

She has long had this thought, she doesn't want to stay at home and eat idle food, but she doesn't know what to do to make money.

"I'm going to open a deli stand." Tie Min mentioned Wang Li. At the beginning, he helped process cooked food at Wang Li's house every day, and he learned this craft. He said: "It's just that the money we have is not enough to do business." ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll figure it out." Liu Dongmei didn't care about the origin of Tiemin's craft, she said very happily: "Ask my father to borrow money." ”

"How much can he lend us?" Tiemin asked.

"At least ten thousand." Liu Dongmei finally found an excuse to let her father write the preface.
