Chapter 1106 Fortune changes every year
After his second son got married, Old Chen made a tough decision and divided the family property. He gave the old house that had been allocated to him from the heavy machinery factory to his second son, while he, his wife, and daughter moved in with his eldest son.
The second son was also dissatisfied, feeling that the old man had given him too little when dividing the family property, and in a fit of anger, he stopped all contact with him, and three years passed in the blink of an eye.
This is the old man's pain. He doesn't blame the factory director for forcing him to retire, but rather he blames the director for using underhanded tactics to cause discord in his family.
The long-faced man sneered.
“Dad, as the saying goes, fortunes change every ten years. Back then, Han Shuangming had his brother-in-law stir up trouble in our family in order to force you to retire. I can’t swallow this insult.”
Old Chen lowered his head and sighed heavily.
"So what if you can't swallow it? Boss, they're high-ranking officials with a lot of power, we can't compete with them."
The father and son seemed to have gone off-topic, and Wang Qiuju's mother grew impatient, glaring at the cow with her eyes wide open.
"We're talking about your promotions, why are you bringing up the heavy machinery factory? Tell me what happened?"
The long-faced man glared at her, inwardly cursing the old hag for ruining the atmosphere.
“Dad, now’s your chance to vent your anger. Do you know why the central working group contacted me? They wanted me to choose a company to lead, and I chose the heavy machinery factory…”
Upon hearing this, Old Chen was speechless.
"What did you say? You want to be a leader at the heavy machinery factory? Oh dear, that won't do. Let me tell you the truth, son, this heavy machinery factory is a murky place. Although it's a joint public-private enterprise now, in reality, Zhong Qingfa still holds the real power."
The machinery and steel from the heavy machinery factory were hauled out every month and sold to the other side of the sea; all the money went into Zhong Qingfa's pocket…
The man with the long face was taken aback. He grabbed his father's hand and asked anxiously.
"Dad, are you telling the truth? Then none of these leaders care?"
Old Chen gave a bitter smile.
"Manage? Manage my ass! They've already been taken down by Zhong Qingfa. Take Han Shuangming, for example. Do you know why he went to such lengths to get rid of me? It's because I saw his mistress."
It's true that city leaders came to inspect that day, but even if I were stupid, I wouldn't say such a thing in front of them. Your Uncle Wang's medical expenses should be reimbursed; it was a work injury. I only went to find Han Shuangming after the city leaders left.
"It's also my fault for not following the rules; I just pushed the door open and walked in, only to find Han Shuangming and that woman embracing. That's the real reason I'm retiring."
"Dad, why didn't you say so?"
Old Chen looked at his eldest son.
“What could I possibly say? Would I dare to say it? That day, before I even got home from get off work, Zhong Qingfa’s housekeeper stopped me. He gave me 500 yuan and warned me not to go out and talk about it, or he would wipe out my whole family. Do you think I would dare to say it?”
That's why I'm telling you this today, since you're going to be a leader in that den of wolves at the heavy machinery factory. Boss, there are only two possible outcomes if you go there: either you'll end up colluding with them.
Another option is for me, an old man with white hair, to bury my black-haired child, and then I'll have to collect your body..."
After Old Chen said that, even the tiger-woman and her daughter didn't dare to utter a sound.
The man with the long face thought for a moment, then said through gritted teeth.
"Dad, crisis, crisis, danger and opportunity go hand in hand. This is also a good opportunity. Heaven is helping us get revenge. Dad, it's just that it's a bit too much for me to be the leader."
Old Chen was a little confused.
"A bit big, what do you mean?"
"The central working group and the provincial organization department have already signed the appointment letter. I will take office as the director of Mindu Heavy Machinery Factory. Comrade Wang Qiuju will cooperate with my work and take office as the director of the office."
When Wang Qiuju's mother heard this, she almost went crazy with joy. She clapped her hands and shouted.
"What? My daughter is a director? That's impressive, so impressive."
The Chen family was stunned. His wife, who had a long face, tugged at his sleeve and whispered something.
"Honey, you're saying you're the factory manager now?"
The man with the long face nodded heavily.
"Yes! The leader asked me to choose a company, so I chose the heavy machinery factory. Firstly, I'm very familiar with the heavy machinery factory, and secondly, it's to avenge our father."
Everyone was excited. They never expected that their son or husband would rise to become the factory manager of a 5,000-person factory. It must be a blessing from their ancestors.
Old Chen was happy, but he knew the situation at the heavy machinery factory best, he said to the long-faced man.
"Alright, stop talking outside. Come inside with me. Since the leader has appointed Qiuju as your assistant, come along too. I'll explain the situation at the heavy machinery factory to you in more detail."
The man with the long face grabbed Old Chen's head and shook his head.
“Dad, you want to explain the situation, but not here. Come with me to the work group and explain the situation to the leaders.”
Old Chen hesitated immediately. He had spent his whole life dealing with iron blocks and had no idea how to be flexible.
"Alright, I'll tell you again, go tell your boss, I don't want to see him."
Seeing that the old man refused, he became anxious, his long face covered in sweat, and he grabbed Old Chen and said.
"Oh, Dad, please come with me. Consider it supporting my work. Besides, the team leader is a very nice person."
Wang Qiuju remained silent for a while before finally interjecting in a daze.
"Yeah, that leader is really handsome."
After much pleading and cajoling, Old Chen finally agreed to go to the work group with Long Face. Wang Qiuju and her mother went home. Wang Qiuju was still in a daze; what kind of mess had she gotten herself into? She was the group leader in the afternoon and promoted to director in the evening!
She was so focused on getting promoted that she didn't consider whether she was capable of the position. As for what the office director did, she had no idea.
Half an hour later, Da Bao Jin Hai and the members of the work group met Da Chang Lian and his father in the small conference room of the guesthouse.
When Old Chen saw that Da Bao and the others were all smiling and seemed easy to approach, he gradually put his worries aside.
The long-faced man gave a brief introduction to the situation at the heavy machinery factory. Da Bao and Jin Hai's expressions grew increasingly serious; they hadn't expected the situation at the heavy machinery factory to be so complicated.
Da Bao took out a special cigarette and gave one to Old Chen. He then asked Song Yu to pour some tea before speaking gently.
"Grandpa, don't be nervous. Tell us in detail what you know. We're not doing this for anything else, but so that our new country can have fewer parasites."
Old Chen lit a cigarette, and his wildly beating heart finally calmed down.
"Distinguished leaders, since you think so highly of my son, I'll tell you everything I know. Let me state beforehand that what I say may lack factual basis, but I can guarantee it's absolutely true."
