Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Li Huaide suddenly stopped smiling and said seriously, "Zhu Zi, enough small talk, let's get down to business!"

Seeing Li Huaide's serious expression, He Yuzhu immediately sat up straight and said seriously:

"Brother Li, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

Li Huaide said in a serious tone, "Next month, a group of students will arrive in Beijing. However, due to the large number of students, each unit will be responsible for arranging food and accommodation for some of the students. Our steel rolling mill is a large plant, and the higher-ups require us to accept more than 600 students."

"This is a political task that must be completed unconditionally, without compromise, and with guaranteed quality and quantity."

He Yuzhu frowned, he knew that this should be the Hong guards coming to Beijing to receive an audience with the instructor.

During this campaign, train rides for students from other places to Beijing were free, and the transportation, food and accommodation expenses were covered by the state treasury. After arriving in Beijing, the food and accommodation were arranged by the Beijing government.

However, he vaguely remembered that in his previous life, all the students in the country went to Beijing in 1966, but in this life, the timeline was postponed for several years. Could it be the butterfly effect caused by his rebirth?

He Yuzhu knew the importance of this mission and that if he didn't do it well, he would easily suffer the consequences. He wanted to refuse, but he was the director of the logistics department and this was within his job scope, so he had no way of refusing.

He Yuzhu took a deep breath and said firmly:

"Brother Li, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter beautifully."

Li Huaide nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. "I trust you to do the job. Go and get busy!"

"Brother Li, the safety of our classmates..."

"I'll tell Wei Dayong from the Security Department about the safety issues."

"Then I'm relieved. I'll go down and get busy first."

As soon as He Yuzhu left the office, he called a meeting with the heads of various departments of the logistics department.

In the second meeting room, He Yuzhu saw that the heads of various departments had arrived. He coughed lightly and said seriously:

"We're officially in the meeting now. Director Li just gave our logistics department a political assignment. Next month, students from all provinces across the country will be coming to Beijing, and our steel mill will be responsible for providing food and accommodation for 600 of them."

"This mission concerns the reputation of our steel mill. We must fight this battle with all our might. If any mistakes are made, everyone here will be severely punished. I hope you can put aside your prejudices, work together sincerely, and get this done."

When He Yuzhu said this, leaders of various departments all looked solemn.

Feng Zhuangfei, as He Yuzhu's confidant, quickly spoke in support:

"Don't worry, Director. Our canteen department will definitely take good care of the students' meals."

As soon as Feng Zhuangfei finished speaking, leaders from other departments also expressed their determination.

He Yuzhu saw this and smiled with satisfaction, saying seriously:

"Since everyone has no objection, I will assign the tasks:

Dormitory Management Department, immediately count the number of vacant dormitories under the name of the steel mill, gather all factory employees in the same building or on the same floor, and allocate the remaining rooms to students."

The head of the dormitory management department frowned and said, "Director, there are very few vacant rooms in the staff dormitory, far from enough to accommodate 600 students."

He Yuzhu said in a deep voice: "Of course I know this, so you still have other tasks."

"Environmental Management Department, you are responsible for cleaning up all the vacant warehouses in the factory and building some simple wooden beds for me..."

"Purchasing Department, you are responsible for purchasing the necessary planks, lumber, wooden frames and other supplies."

"Vehicle Management Section, send a few vehicles to follow the comrades from the Purchasing Section to haul and move things."

"The Plumbing and Electrical Management Department is responsible for the supply of water, heating, and electricity. We can't let the students get cold or thirsty."

"The canteen management department is responsible for providing three meals a day for the students. It would be best if we could stagger the meal times with those of the factory workers to avoid stampedes due to overcrowding."

"The Property Management Department is responsible for finding a carpenter to make a simple wooden bed."

"I emphasize again, this is a very important political task, and it's also the most important task for our steel mill right now. All other tasks must give way to it. If that department dares to slack off, even if I can let you go, Director Li won't let you go."

"Of course, if you encounter any difficulties in your work, you can always come to me for coordination. If I can't solve it, I will go to Director Li to solve it."

"In short, in short, we must do everything we can to ensure that this matter is done with quality and quantity."

"That's all I have to say. Do you have anything to add?"

After a while, Feng Zhuangfei was the first to speak: "Director, what about the safety issue?"

He Yuzhu said calmly, "Security issues are under the jurisdiction of the Security Department. Director Li will naturally instruct Wei Dayong. We just need to do our part well!"

Immediately afterwards, the heads of each department raised some questions, and He Yuzhu responded to them one by one.

After the meeting, all the departments of the Logistics Department became busy, only He Yuzhu returned to his office to continue drinking tea and reading the newspaper.

This is the advantage of being a leader. You can delegate everything to your subordinates and you only need to grasp the general direction.

……

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

That morning, He Yuzhu, Wei Dayong and others stood at the factory gate to welcome the out-of-town students who came to stay temporarily at the steel rolling mill.

"The east is red, the sun is rising, something happened in China..."

The loud singing was getting closer and closer, and a moment later, He Yuzhu saw a group of energetic students marching towards him.

This group of students wore green military uniforms, green military caps, military belts around their waists, and military Liberation shoes. They were all in high spirits, just like a group of battle-hardened soldiers.

He Yuzhu sighed, "These children are so full of energy! In them, I seem to see a bright future for our motherland!"

Wei Dayong echoed, "Indeed, their current mental state is no worse than when I joined the army—excited, high-spirited, resilient, brave, and confident."

"It's great to be young!"

"Director He, you seem to be just over thirty years old, right?"

"No, I'm already thirty-four."

"That's very young too!"

"Young? Compared to them, I feel old."

"If you say so, then I am older."

While He Yuzhu and Wei Dayong were chatting, the student team had already arrived at the entrance of the steel rolling mill.

A middle-aged man at the front of the team walked quickly to He Yuzhu and Wei Dayong and said enthusiastically:

"Director He, Section Chief Wei, I'm sorry to trouble you with these children."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Director Wang, you are too polite. This is what we should do."

This person is the director of the street office in the steel rolling mill area and has contacted He Yuzhu before.
