Yang Jianguo said with a wry smile, "I'm helpless too, we're just short of manpower."

Li Yaoguo glanced at Zhang Chao and smiled, "Then you should give priority to Chao'er, he is your eldest disciple."

Yang Jianguo glanced at him, knowing that Li Yaoguo was worried that Zhang Chao would have objections.

Following him, my future will definitely be better than staying here.

But instead of taking care of his apprentice, the master found an outsider to train him.

Those who are petty will definitely remember this.

The further Fang Guohua goes in the future, the more he spreads his business, and the bigger the knot in this matter will become.

Who knows, in the end, the master and disciple might become enemies because of this.

Yang Jianguo also bluntly stated, "Chao'er, I really want to take you with me. But the workshop can't do without you, and no one else can shoulder this responsibility."

Li Yaoguo didn't feel awkward at all. Instead, he shook his head self-deprecatingly and said, "My apprentice is more valuable than me as a master."

"Get lost."

Yang Jianguo cursed in annoyance, saying, "You're so invincible, even satellites have to rely on you to get into space."

"What, you want to replace the satellite yourself? Or should we launch you up there and hang you there?"

"No, it's too high, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand steadily," Li Yaoguo said with a grin.

After watching the two masters bicker like children, Zhang Chao finally spoke up: "Hua Zi can do it, he'll be fine."

"It's possible, but I'm afraid he's not a very stable person."

Li Yaoguo wasn't worried about his apprentice's skills not keeping up; it was just that mischievous kid's personality.

Once you get to a higher-level organization, there will definitely be more rules and regulations than here.

With his personality, what if he offends someone?

"There's no need for so much trouble. Just focus on your technical work and don't worry about anything else."

Yang Jianguo glared at him and said with a smile, "Besides, I'm still here!"

He said this with complete confidence, without the slightest hint of guilt.

So what if he's a bit of a wild child? Of course, he's no pushover either.

Young people should have the carefree spirit of youth. If you're not wild when you're young, when will you be?

If he hadn't lived two lives and had experiences beyond those of ordinary people...

Based on his achievements, Yang Jianguo is probably more arrogant than anyone else.

Even with past life experiences, knowing that some things are impossible, one can still find a way to benefit oneself.

In the end, he still stood up.

We must stand firm under immense pressure and refuse to yield an inch.

Even though I know it won't do me any good, there are some things I just have to do despite knowing they're wrong.

Human nature is unpredictable precisely because of its contradictions!

"Yaoguo, I'm really taking your apprentice with me now, so don't be reluctant to part with him."

Hearing him say that, Li Yaoguo said with disdain, "Take him away quickly, that brat is infuriating me all day long."

"Once you get rid of him, I'll find a good apprentice to train properly. I'm not seventy or eighty years old anymore."

At the prime of his life, taking on another apprentice wouldn't be difficult for Li Yaoguo.

Yang Jianguo is taking Hua Zi away now, but isn't he going to start over with him all over again?

However, I have a foundation built in the workshop.

Yang Jianguo is definitely much less troublesome than him, so he got the better deal.

Chapter 457 Everyone Has Their Own Arrangements, The Unexpected Incident at Courtyard No. 2

They look disgusted when they talk about it, but when it comes to actually leaving...

Li Yaoguo, as the master, repeatedly warned Fang Guohua, fearing that he might cause trouble due to his own indiscretion.

Even though he's in his thirties, he still acts the same as before in front of his master.

Listen obediently with your head down, but if you piss me off, I'll hit you.

"Don't cause any trouble for Jianguo over there, and make sure you have the right attitude."

"Work hard, do any work that comes your way, and even if there's no work, be the first to volunteer."

"They'll fight for any job that's available."

Fang Guohua echoed in unison, laughing, "Master, don't worry, I promise I won't let you down."

Li Yaoguo raised an eyebrow and said, "You think I'm afraid you'll embarrass yourself? Don't say you're my disciple if you embarrass yourself."

"No, you'll always be my master."

Fang Guohua spoke with righteous indignation, his smile revealing his seriousness.

These are my heartfelt words; a teacher for a day is a father for life.

Li Yaoguo treated him no worse than a biological son, and even in his old age, he remained his mentor.

"Get lost, all you do is try to make me happy."

Li Yaoguo grinned and cursed, his face full of wrinkles that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Don't rush to say goodbye. Come back in a couple of days. Finish up your work first."

Yang Jianguo wasn't in a hurry; he wanted to finish his work and hand it over properly before leaving.

Even leaders cannot completely disregard the feelings of their subordinates; such leaders will not last long.

"Master Yang."

Before he could even open his mouth, Hua Zi was kicked in the leg. He immediately understood: "Don't worry, Director, I've definitely arranged everything properly."

"Hmm." Yang Jianguo didn't let him call him 'Master Yang' again.

Every place has its own rules, and once you get to the Ministry of Works, you definitely can't keep calling him "Master Yang" anymore.

Yang Jianguo had high expectations for him, and he wasn't just training him as a technician.

So, until a more suitable candidate is found.

Hua Zi is his only potential successor, unless some exceptionally outstanding candidate emerges.

Or perhaps he's hopeless, or maybe he's made some serious mistake.

Then he can just wait to take over!

Yang Jianguo wouldn't do that kind of thing—leaving someone behind and not taking care of them.

Finally, it's a despicable thing that ruins a person's entire life.

He may not be afraid of his son, but he still has his grandson!

Every fart is important.

"Xiao Han."

"Leader, I'm here."

Han Xi ran over and nodded and smiled at the masters.

"This is my new secretary, Xiao Han. Please remember Master Fang, Fang Guohua."

"He'll be reporting to work the day after tomorrow; you'll be in charge of receiving him."

Han Xi nodded immediately and said politely, "Master Fang, you can just call me Xiao Han, just like the leaders do."

"When you arrive the day after tomorrow, tell the security guard you are looking for Secretary Han and ask him to give you your name. I will meet you at the gate."

The constant use of "you" made Hua Zi feel extremely uncomfortable.

Especially since it was such a beautiful girl, Hua Zi scratched his head shyly.

"Secretary Han, I'm just a rough guy, you can just call me Hua Zi, no need for formalities."

Fang Guohua glanced at his master, Yang Jianguo, and Zhang Chao, and said with a simple smile, "I feel very awkward listening to this. Everyone here is my master's generation. How dare I address you as such?"

Han Xi smiled, showing no intention of changing her mind.

“That’s different. You are dealing with the leaders, and how I address you is just proper etiquette and courtesy.”

"You're used to hearing that," Han Xi said before stepping down, leaving the room for the masters to catch up.

Seeing her walk to the side, Li Yaoguo winked at him and said, "Jianguo, you have good taste!"

"This really wasn't my choice; it was recommended by the office."

Seeing his sleazy look, Yang Jianguo reached into his pocket, pulled out a pack of cigarettes, and threw it at him.

"Hey~ swimming, this is great stuff."

Li Yaoguo reached out and caught it, then happily opened it and asked, "Is there more? Why don't you hit me a few more times!"

"That's all." Yang Jianguo said, both amused and exasperated, "I'll have someone send you one next time."

"No need, you can keep it for yourself!"

Li Yaoguo opened the cigarette and put it in his mouth, saying, "If people find out this, they'll think I have a lot of influence over you, and a lot of people will bother me."

He wasn't trying to take credit or show off.

On the contrary, it was a reminder to Yang Jianguo not to let anyone 'misunderstanding' him.

We may have a good relationship, but that's just the old working friendship we had. We can't trouble our boss, can we?

If this work-related friendship were a personal relationship, who knows how many people would come knocking on his door wanting to follow in his footsteps.

When faced with those who are difficult to refuse, do you think Li Yaoguo should talk to them or remain silent and offend them for no reason?

"Fine, you're the one with the most ideas."

Yang Jianguo said with a smile, "Here's what we'll do, Chao'er, go back and get two of these from me, and then give some to Master Li in your name."

"That's good." Li Yaoguo nodded happily.

"You, you." Yang Jianguo smiled and stood up, pointing lightly with his finger.

He's lingered here long enough; it's time for him to leave.

"Master, let me take you there."

Zhang Chao followed him outside, and Yang Jianguo took the opportunity to talk to him.

In addition, we should also give him a heads-up about what the future of the workshop is like.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the workshop will be completely separated and established as a brand new organization."

"At that time, your rank and benefits will be improved, person in charge..."

"You need to be mentally prepared beforehand, okay!"

He patted him on the shoulder; those words were more effective than any guarantee to Zhang Chao.

His master told him to be prepared, which meant, "Barring any unforeseen circumstances, you're the one."

Zhang Chao would never allow this accident to happen.

As long as he doesn't cause any problems, given his master's style, he certainly won't let him down.

"Master, please slow down."

He personally saw him off to his car, and Zhang Chao stood beside him saying, "I'll visit you and your teacher's wife another day."

"Ah."

Yang Jianguo nodded and reminded her, "Just bring a roast duck; your teacher's wife likes that."

"it is good."

Zhang Chao nodded in agreement and decided to buy a duck and go over for a free meal this week.

His master's wife's cooking skills are getting better and better, and he has to find his master's good wine to have a few more drinks.
