Chapter 178 Contest
The night was dark and the moon was bright. Xu Qing and his brothers and sisters finished dinner together, washed the pots and pans, and then sat alone at the door of the house, smoking silently.
The three little ones were playing around in the house, but Xu Qing didn't care. He was a little confused. For five hundred yuan, Deputy Director Li asked Liu Lan to lend him Si Zhu's hand.
In these days, for Xu Qing, who is only a first-level fitter, this is a lot of money.
It’s more than his salary for one year and two months.
Of course, for an old worker like Mr. Yi, it is only half a year’s salary.
Xu Qing knows the purpose of Deputy Director Li.
With just this little money, he wanted to take away his quota and at the same time keep the scandal between him and Liu Lan.
Xu Qing felt that Deputy Director Li’s calculations were too loud.
Isn’t this just fooling a stupid boy?
Not to mention anything else, just a promotion quota is not something that can be measured by five hundred yuan.
It is not an easy task for workers to be promoted. Without luck and opportunity, it cannot be easily obtained.
How many veteran workers have worked diligently in the factory for more than ten years without getting a chance.
If five hundred yuan can be exchanged for a promotion quota, the second uncle who lives in the compound would have already taken the money to do it.
Why feel depressed?
Xu Qing took a puff of cigarette, looked up in the direction of the second uncle's house, and secretly made up his mind to talk to Deputy Director Li tomorrow.
It was impossible to give in. Deputy Factory Director Li looked down upon others, and Xu Qing felt that he needed to give him a warning.
Otherwise, if we just keep silent, maybe in the end Deputy Director Li will think that he can get it done for just five hundred dollars.
And Xu Qing didn't want to return the five hundred yuan.
Because I can’t withdraw.
If I return it tomorrow, firstly, I will show my cowardice; secondly, given the human nature of Deputy Director Li, I don’t know how he will push the envelope further.
If it was something else, if it was not Deputy Director Li, but a person with a good heart, Xu Qing would naturally return the money without any change.
But there is no room for negotiation on this matter.
Because the truth can only be explained by people who are reasonable. When you meet people like Deputy Factory Director Li, you have to be strong when you need to be strong.
Otherwise, giving in will only make him feel that you can be manipulated by him.
After making up his mind, Xu Qing stubbed out the burned cigarette butts on the ground, then got up and headed back into the house.
Early the next morning.
Not long after Xu Qing started working in the factory, he said hello to the workshop director, left the workshop, and headed towards Deputy Director Li's office.
Deputy Director Li, who was sitting in the office, was a little surprised when he saw Xu Qing. He did not expect that Xu Qing would come to see him today.
According to his idea, Xu Qing would definitely accept the money honestly and never mention it again.
But at this time Xu Qing came, and Deputy Director Li had a look of confusion in his eyes. At the same time, he quickly thought about the purpose of Xu Qing's coming.
After seeing from the corner of his eye that Xu Qing had nothing in his hand, Deputy Director Li sneered in his heart, stood up, and said straight to the point:
"Comrade Xu Qing, what do you want from me?"
"I will still fight for anything I propose!"
"Xu Qing?!" Deputy Director Li gritted his teeth and glared, "Since you have collected the things, why do you still..."
Xu Qing raised his hand to interrupt Deputy Director Li, "Why should I give up my promotion quota to your nephew?"
"Don't make a toast and you'll have to drink a fine wine!" Deputy Director Li's face instantly turned livid, and his eyes were filled with anger.
Xu Qing smiled coldly, glanced at Deputy Director Li coldly, turned around, opened the door and walked out.
What needs to be said has already been said, and Xu Qing is too lazy to talk nonsense to him.
Now the initiative is in his own hands. He, Deputy Factory Li, has the guts to go his own way and see who has the last laugh!
As soon as Xu Qing left, Deputy Director Li was the only one left in the office.
Deputy Director Li never expected that Xu Qing would do this. He immediately grabbed the tea cup angrily and slammed it on the desk.
Even after the money was given, Xu Qing didn't give up, which was completely beyond his expectation.
I thought it was a soft persimmon, but I never thought it was a prick.
Sitting slumped on the chair, Deputy Director Li grabbed the cigarette at hand, shook out a cigarette, held it in the corner of his mouth, crumpled the empty cigarette case into a ball, and threw it on the ground.
Naturally, he had a way to deal with Xu Qing, but Xu Qing had a handle in his hand that made him dare not act rashly.
But Deputy Factory Director Li completely hated Xu Qing in his heart.
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of another good way to make Xu Qing retreat.
Immediately after he finished puffing on the cigarette in his hand, he asked someone to fetch his nephew Li Hu from the workshop.
After all, he did this mainly because of Li Hu's promotion.
When Li Hu walked into the office, he saw Deputy Director Li's face looking ugly. He hurriedly reached for a cigarette from his pocket, quickly handed one over, and asked:
"Uncle Third, what's wrong?"
Deputy Director Li had a dark face and did not take the cigarette, but continued to smoke the cigarette between his fingers:
"Xu Qing from the third workshop of fitters disagrees. The things you proposed will probably have to be postponed."
"Third uncle, didn't we all agree before? You've been helping me with this for a long time, so why..."
Deputy Director Li looked at Li Hu coldly, puffed on his cigarette, and was speechless for a while.
Naturally, he wanted to get things done, but the problem was, he couldn't get it done.
He couldn't let Xu Qing report what happened between him and Liu Lan to the factory.
If that's the case, in the end, what Li Huti did was a waste of time, and he himself will be ruined.
Li Hu, who was standing aside, said in a low voice:
"Third uncle, how about I find someone to take care of that boy Xu Qing."
Upon hearing this, Deputy Director Li looked sideways at his nephew, who had a pretty good mind, and suddenly felt that he was simply an idiot today.
If finding someone to deal with it could solve the problem, wouldn't he, the deputy director of the factory, have thought of it?
It’s not because Xu Qing can’t be touched.
Xu Qing is fixated on the matter between him and Liu Lan, and taking action hastily will only make the situation get out of control.
Deputy Director Li doesn’t want to stumble like this.
Li Hu, who didn't understand the reason, saw Deputy Director Li's expression solemn.
Knowing that what he just said was wrong, he quickly lowered his head and said nothing.
Deputy Director Li bit his cigarette butt hard, waved to Li Hu and said: "Go out, I will help you arrange it when the quota becomes available next year."
Reluctantly, Li Hu looked up at his third uncle, furious in his heart. The tigan he was about to receive was so yellow. He was very unwilling to do so. He secretly clenched his fists and turned around and walked toward the office door without saying a word.<
/p>
"By the way, you boy, don't go behind my back, and boy Xu Qing, don't mess with me!"
Deputy Director Li warned, then sat on the chair and said no more.
Li Hu was startled and stood at the door of the office, stunned for a moment before walking away.
