People in the Siheyuan: I am a Buddhist who is in a mess

Xu Zhenghao scolded Zhang Hualing and went to wash up.

Xu Zhenghao was exhausted at the moment and wanted to go to bed early.

He didn't care about Zhang Hualing who didn't believe the news.

Xu Zhenghao no longer expects Zhang Hualing to help him

Steel rolling mill, factory office, factory director's office.

"Lin Yi is here. Take a seat first. I'll finish processing this document."

Yang Aiguo was writing on a document behind his desk. When he saw that it was Lin Yi who came in, he said.

"Uncle Yang, you go ahead."

Lin Yi agreed, found the water bottle, refilled Yang Aiguo's cup with water, then found another cup, poured some tea leaves, and brewed it.

Yang Aiguo kept writing on the documents. Lin Yi did not make any noise to disturb him. He just sat quietly on the chair and drank his tea slowly.

It took Yang Aiguo a while to screw the pen cap back on, then he closed the document and put it aside.

Holding the teacup, he walked from the desk to the coffee table and sat down casually.

"How's the progress between you and the Hulukou Brigade down there?"

Yang Aiguo asked Lin Yi about the Hulukou Brigade.

Although he was curious, Lin Yi still answered: "The progress of Hulukou Brigade is quite smooth. The members of the entire brigade are very enthusiastic about production and construction. I went there yesterday. The strong laborers there were building the dam of the small reservoir, and many elderly women were also helping."

After listening to this, Yang Aiguo nodded and said, "The last time their captain came over, I remember he said that they would supply 10,000 eggs to the steel mill every month, right?"

Lin Yi nodded and said, "These eggs were delivered to our steel mill half a month ago. I personally went to get them."

Yang Aiguo said, "It seems that their team still has some strength. Since they can provide 10,000 eggs, you can talk to their team leader and ask if they can supply some other vegetables to the factory. If there is meat, it will be even better."

Lin Yi didn't expect that Yang Aiguo actually wanted more vegetables and meat.

"Uncle Yang, they only have one brigade, so they can't supply a steel mill as big as ours, right?"

Yang Aiguo sighed and said, "We don't need them to supply us often. Just help us supply them this time."

Seeing Lin Yi's doubts, Yang Aiguo explained, "There was a mistake in the logistics department. Li Xinnian was new and unfamiliar with the business. The canteen supply could not keep up for a while, and the canteen director Hu Danian did not make a response plan. Yesterday, Hu Danian came to me to complain."

"There is still more than a week before the next planned allocation. We need to find a way to solve the missing quota ourselves."

The canteen supply issue is a big deal, but it’s not a big deal either.

If we really want to put in the effort and get some resources from other factories, it will only take a week or so and it won't be difficult.

It’s just that Yang Aiguo doesn’t want to talk to those brother manufacturers for the time being.

Especially among the brother factories under the Iron and Steel Plant, they usually compare with each other, so asking for help is somewhat embarrassing.

These were not the most difficult three years. At that time, everyone was short of food and it was not shameful to complain.

But now, production and supply have eased a lot, and if he goes to borrow vegetables again, it will seem that he is incompetent as a factory director.

Therefore, the first thing Yang Aiguo thought of was the Hulukou Brigade, which had just delivered 10,000 eggs to the steel rolling mill.

As for the affairs of Hulukou Brigade, Lin Yi was still in charge of them alone.

"Okay, I'll go to Hulukou Brigade right away. But, Uncle Yang, I think their brigade really can't supply them. We can only ask them to introduce us to the nearby brigade commune. That way, if each family can pool some together, it should be enough."

Lin Yi was naturally well aware of the level of the Hulukou Brigade. Those 10,000 eggs were all taken out by Lin Yi. With the combined strength of the entire brigade, they could supply the steel rolling mill with a day's supply of vegetables, but it would be difficult to get the supply for a week.

Even if Ning Dawei was sold out, he couldn't do it.

Although it is available in Lin Yi’s portable farm, Lin Yi doesn’t want to make it appear that easy.

"What you said makes sense. I'll call an emergency factory meeting later, and you can take on the position of deputy chief of the purchasing department. Then, when you go out to purchase these ingredients, it will be in compliance with the regulations."

Yang Aiguo made the decision directly.

"I'll write you a letter of introduction. You can go to Hulukou to make purchases first. If you encounter any difficulties or if the other party has any requests, you can ask them when you come back. I'll finalize the position when you come back."

Since Yang Aiguo said so, Lin Yi agreed.

After Lin Yi left, Yang Aiguo fell into deep thought.

Li Xinnian has been working for almost two months, but the work in the logistics department has not improved at all. Instead, it is much more chaotic than before he came...

This guy is good at using his power to flatter and curry favor. When higher-ups come over, he does a good job of entertaining them, but when it comes to specific matters, he is very poor.

This time, there was a problem with the canteen’s supply.

Yang Aiguo hasn't encountered this kind of thing for a long time.

A lot of the meat and vegetables in the cold storage have gone bad.

Yang Aiguo has received many letters of complaint about canteens using rotten meat and bad vegetables to feed workers.

This investigation revealed that on the one hand, the cold storage had poor preservation, and on the other hand, there was a lack of quality control during procurement.

The quality of meat and vegetables from the meat processing plant and supply and marketing cooperatives has declined significantly in the past two months.

Originally, when He Yuzhu was a chef in the canteen, he had a way to deal with it and the workers couldn't tell the difference.

But recently He Yuzhu was injured and took a long vacation, and the other chefs in the cafeteria did not have this ability, so the matter was exposed.

So, the cafeteria eliminated all the bad ones, but this left a gap in supply.

“Should we separate the purchasing department?”

Since Li Xinnian was unable to shoulder the burden of the logistics department, Yang Aiguo was thinking about whether to reduce the burden on Li Xinnian.

Yang Aiguo has the power to appoint department-level cadres in the steel rolling mill. His factory is so large that when necessary, he can make decisions directly without going through a factory meeting.

However, the appointment of department-level cadres needs to be reported to the Steel General Plant. Department-level officials are already senior leaders of the steel rolling mill.

Yang Aiguo was not satisfied with the parachuted director of the logistics department. Although he could not send him away for the time being, he could sideline Li Xinnian.

But if this happens, Li Xinnian will definitely hate Yang Aiguo.

After all, Li Xinnian is not without followers. Although his father-in-law is about to retire, he has not retired completely after all.

For a moment, Yang Aiguo couldn't make up his mind.
