Chapter 45 Li Huaide Arrives

Purchasing Department of the Steel Rolling Mill, today is Monday, and it is time for another meeting. Today, Section Chief Wu Wei Qiu has specially notified everyone that they must be present, as a new leader from the Logistics Department will be coming.

After a while, all the buyers arrived. Even those who were going to the countryside for purchasing came back for the meeting. No one asked for leave or was absent. No one was a fool. The arrival of the new leader of the Logistics Department was related to their own future, and no one would joke with themselves.

It was rare for everyone to get together, so they started smoking and chatting in groups of three or four. The whole conference room was filled with smoke and the voices of discussion gradually increased.

When Section Chief Wu brought his people to the conference room, as soon as the door was opened, the smoke immediately had a place to vent and all rushed to the door, choking Section Chief Wu. However, the people who came remained calm and looked very friendly.

"You bunch of bastards, why don't you open the door when you smoke? You make it look like there's a fire."

Section Chief Wu caught a few people and started scolding them.

Zhang Hai was very cunning. When the section chief came in, he quickly went up to him to make himself familiar with him, because this was his future leader.

Afterwards, Section Chief Wu began to introduce the newcomer to everyone. It was Li Huaide who had just been transferred here. With the help of his father-in-law, Li Huaide had just been parachuted into the steel rolling mill as the deputy director of logistics.

Yes, Li Huaide is not the deputy factory director Li in the original plot, but only a deputy director of the logistics department. However, there is no director in the logistics department now, and it is obvious that this position is reserved for him. He also manages the entire logistics department as the deputy director.

After Chief Wu finished his introduction, everyone started to come forward to build relationships, including Wang Jianfeng, of course. Wang Jianfeng was familiar with the future situation, and building a good relationship with Li Huaide would be of great benefit to him in the future.

And Wang Jianfeng knew that if he wanted to stay in the steel mill in the future, he would have to choose to take sides. There would be two major factions in the steel mill in the future, namely Deputy Director Yang who was in charge of production and Li Huaide who was in charge of logistics. That's right, Director Yang Weimin in the original plot has not yet taken office and is only a deputy director.

The key is that the Purchasing Department is originally under the jurisdiction of Li Huaide. In fact, Wang Jianfeng does not need to take sides. As long as he is still in the Purchasing Department, he is naturally a member of Li Huaide's faction.

And it's actually not bad to follow Li Huaide. You know, when the wind blows in the future, Li Huaide will be able to thrive like a fish in water, and he can also escape unscathed after the tide goes down. This is not easy.

The current leader of the steel rolling mill is Secretary Qi, who also serves as the factory director. He will probably be promoted and transferred in a year or two. After that, for a long period of time, the steel rolling mill will be the home ground of Yang Weimin and Li Huaide.

Now that Li Huaide has been transferred here, it means that the butterfly wings of Wang Jianfeng do not have that much impact, and the plot will always be corrected.

Li Huaide is really good at winning people's hearts. After Section Chief Wu introduced the people, he talked to all the buyers one by one. He could basically call out each one's name and resume. He is really good. No wonder he had the last laugh.

"This is Wang Jianfeng, a student who graduated from a technical secondary school. In the past few months since he came to the steel mill, he has exceeded the targets every month."

"Oh, Jianfeng, I know you. You are very good. Keep working hard in the future. The factory will not forget you guys."

"Yes, Jianfeng, Director Li always likes to promote you young people. Keep up the good work."

"Thank you, Director Li and Section Chief Wu, for your concern. I will try my best."

As for why Li Huaide was called Director instead of Deputy Director, everyone who knew would understand. Unless he was not smart, how could he make such a low-level mistake? Afterwards, Li Huaide patted Wang Jianfeng on the shoulder and began to encourage others. In short, after going through the whole process, everyone was already familiar with Li Huaide.

Through the just-met Wang Jianfeng had a preliminary understanding of Li Huaide, and he felt that Li Huaide should have a good impression of him.

Although I should naturally belong to his faction now, there is no need for me to place my bet so early. Otherwise, if Li Huaide and Yang Weimin fight each other, a small shrimp like me might become cannon fodder. What I need to do now is to improve myself and have more bargaining chips.

What I need to do now is to establish a good relationship with Li Huaide in advance, and observe the rest.

The morning passed like this, and in the afternoon, colleagues from the purchasing department started to go their separate ways.

Wang Jianfeng also found Zhang Hai in a timely manner to discuss the job quota.

Zhang Hai also directly quoted a price of 400 yuan. The canteen at the textile factory was expanding and several vacancies for kitchen helpers were released. Zhao Xingguo got one through the connection of an old comrade-in-arms. It was obviously not appropriate to give it directly to Wang Jianfeng, so he could only sell it to him at the lowest market price.

Wang Jianfeng agreed without hesitation. The price of a formal job position is actually between 400 and 700 yuan, which depends on the job market. A good job may not be available even if you have money, and there is no point in buying a worse job.

When you first start working as a kitchen helper, you are just an apprentice with a monthly salary of 14 yuan, and after becoming a regular employee, you will get 23 yuan. This job is a formal employee and you will be promoted to a regular employee after three months. Of course, you must not make any mistakes during this period, otherwise, it will be hard to say what will happen.

As for how much development he can have after becoming a regular employee, that all depends on himself. It is possible that he will be a kitchen helper for his whole life. Sha Zhu's apprentices Ma Hua and Fatty are examples. If he can learn the skills, he can become a chef like Sha Zhu.

In a word, how much you can achieve depends on your luck. Of course, this job also provides a stable income, which is much better than working as a temporary worker.

Zhang Hai seemed to know that Wang Jianfeng would agree, so he took the letter of introduction and handed it to Wang Jianfeng. Wang Jianfeng did not act pretentiously and accepted it directly. As for the money, Wang Jianfeng needed to go home and discuss it with Yu Li before giving it to Zhang Hai. Zhang Hai was not afraid that Wang Jianfeng would default on his debt.

Wang Jianfeng and Zhang Hai have been working together for so long, and they have both made a lot of money. Zhang Hai knows some of Wang Jianfeng's family assets, so he has nothing to worry about.

When he returned home in the afternoon, Wang Jianfeng took out the letter of introduction and told Yu Li about the situation. Yu Li was also very happy.

Then Yu Li thought for a while and said to Wang Jianfeng, "Brother Jianfeng, I will find a way to deal with the money. My parents will pay for it, but if they don't have enough money, can we lend them some?"

“Of course, what’s the problem?”

Afterwards, Yu Li went to Yu's house alone with the letter of introduction. Wang Jianfeng wanted to go with her, but was rejected by Yu Li.

In fact, Wang Jianfeng originally thought that he would have to pay for all this money himself, but he didn't expect that his wife was so sensible. His wife went to her parents' home to deal with money matters, and his little wife went with him, apparently not wanting to make things difficult for him.

After all, as a son-in-law, it was not easy for him to talk about money with his father-in-law. Not long after, Yu Li arrived at Yu's house.
