Chapter 179 No one can play with you, father and son
Although Jin Guiyuan has been sidelined, he still retains the treatment of "deputy factory director" for the time being, such as having an independent office, retaining cars and drivers.
This was actually a deliberate arrangement made by Xu Zhiquan and Xu Chen after discussion.
"Vice Factory Manager Jin" still picks up cars and delivers them to and from get off work on time every day. Even when he occasionally goes to the seedling project, he rides in the factory's supplied car, a black Nissan Teana.
This invisibly reminded the employees in the factory that when the factory could not even pay wages, Director Jin still insisted on picking up and delivering workers and receiving his salary normally.
But Xu Zhiquan took this opportunity to mingle with hundreds of machine factory workers.
Whenever he didn't have social or official business, he would go to the construction site to work together. Every time, he would be soaked with sweat, without any pampering of a big boss.
Mr. Xu also ate the same lunch box and drank the same mung bean soup as the workers in the machinery factory.
Only then did these simple workers realize that what Xu Zhiquan said in the auditorium that he was "born as a farmer and worked as a workshop director in the Northeast" was definitely not empty talk or lies.
This kind of understanding and feeling still brought some shock to these honest and responsible old employees of state-owned factories.
After all, the previous leaders of the state-owned Guangming Factory were all high and mighty.
They wear leather shoes every day, sit in a clean and tidy complex, and are only responsible for holding meetings and receiving people from outside.
Occasionally entering the workshop is what is called condolences to the employees, saying a few nice words, taking a few photos and then leaving.
Even the old secretary Ji Yusheng, who seems to be "working hard" now, still had some leadership posture when he first gained power.
Not to mention Jin Guiyuan, who parachuted into the factory as a leader and looked domineering...
In contrast, these simple workers became more convinced of Mr. Xu.
What's more, in the past few days, the scenes of Mr. Xu chatting and laughing with many city and provincial leaders also made everyone admire him.
This Mr. Xu was not only able to work hard with the workers and lead the way, but he was also able to get in front of various big leaders and manage so many seedling projects...
In terms of character and ability, Mr. Xu is obviously much higher than the leaders of the original machinery factory.
It's no wonder that as a local private enterprise in Tiancheng, he was able to take over the state-owned Guangming Factory...
These hundreds of old employees of the machinery factory also began to sincerely feel that it was a good thing that the machinery factory went bankrupt and was restructured, and that it could be bought by Mr. Xu and Dongchen Shares.
……
……
One day at noon, Jin Guiyuan was drinking tea in the office when he suddenly received a phone call.
He glanced at the phone number, immediately showed a hint of nervousness, and stood up from his chair.
He didn't answer the phone in a hurry, but went to lock the office door first.
Jin Guiyuan walked to the window, took a breath, and then pressed the call button.
He lowered his head slightly, responded respectfully to the phone, and then whispered:
"There will be no problem. Those two security guards are very strict with their mouths, so don't worry..."
"Aren't they still in control of their children's schooling? They don't dare to talk nonsense..."
"Besides, they actually don't know anything, and you can't ask anything from them."
"There's no big problem with those account books. After all, the city didn't find anything."
"At first I was just afraid of anything unexpected, but in fact even if it gets into their hands, I can't see why..."
"Yes, the information in the account book is incomplete to begin with, let alone a few inconspicuous records. There is not even a payment or receipt, and not a penny has been transferred..."
……
……
That evening, Xu Chen took a taxi and came to Guangming Factory.
When I got off the car, I saw two vertical signs temporarily hung on the right side of the gate.
"Dongchen Co., Ltd.", "Morning Wind Technology Co., Ltd.".
The original signboard of "Tiancheng State-owned Guangming Machinery Factory" has been taken down.
Two young security guards at the door called "Brother Chen" when they saw Xu Chen.
This is naturally Zhao Feng's little brother.
Xu Chen took out his backpack, took out two packs of cigarettes, and stuffed them into their hands.
"Thank you, Brother Chen!"
……
There are not many people in the factory. Half of the workers are helping the high-speed seedling engineers, and the other half have been arranged by the fourth uncle to several planting areas in the west of the city.
There are several workers inspecting the mechanical equipment in several workshops of the machinery factory. These are all planned to be liquidated and sold in exchange for some funds.
Xu Zhiquan has already contacted the buyer and will be shipping them out in the near future...
Xu Chen walked through the factory area and walked all the way to the complex building.
When I got to the second floor, I saw Zhao Feng and several other brothers standing in the corridor.
"Brother Chen!"
When he saw Xu Chen approaching, Zhao Feng greeted him with a smile on his face.
Xu Chen took out two cigarettes from his bag and stuffed them into Zhao Feng's hand.
"You brothers, give me a share!"
Zhao Feng showed a hint of embarrassment:
"Mr. Xu just paid our wages, but Brother Chen spent money again!"
Xu Chen: "Where is Teacher Fang Jun?"
Zhao Feng: “It’s still inside!”
Xu Chen: "Has she had lunch?"
Zhao Feng: "I brought you food."...
Xu Chen walked to the door of the finance room and knocked gently.
After a while, the door was opened from the inside, and Fang Jun was standing in the door.
She didn't say anything, opened the door and let Xu Chen in.
Xu Chen closed the door and saw four large tables put together, with stacks of account books and documents spread on them.
Xu Chen said: "Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Fang Jun. I will treat you to dinner later!"
Fang Jun: "The things we have to do are almost finished!"
Xu Chen swayed beside the table, lowered his head and scanned the account books on the table.
Fang Jun showed a hint of nervousness:
"Don't move around! Each book has a fixed position, and you can't even touch the angle of placement!"
Xu Chen was so frightened that he did not dare to move and even raised his hands.
Fang Jun paused, showing a hint of embarrassment:
"You go and sit inside first, and wait here until I finish tidying up."
"Oh."
Xu Chen responded, turned around and walked inside.
He found a stool and sat down, then said:
"Are there any clues about those ledgers?"
Fang Jun frowned, naturally knowing which books he was talking about.
Before Fang Jun could answer, there was another knock on the door.
Fang Jun stood up and opened the door, and Xu Zhiquan walked in with a smile.
Xu Zhiquan looked up and saw Xu Chen, smiled and said:
"Xu Chen is already here? I thought you would be waiting for a while...
That's just right. I just asked Li Rui to bring a lot of meat and vegetables. Let's go to the conference room next to us to eat together later! ”
Xu Zhiquan said as he walked towards the table filled with ledgers.
Fang Jun frowned again and said sternly:
"Don't go there, don't touch a piece of paper, I'm still sorting it out!"
Xu Zhiquan was startled, but then smiled, turned around, walked inside, and sat down next to Xu Chen.
Fang Jun stopped talking, walked to the table again, and quickly sorted out the piles of documents on the table.
Her movements seemed random and messy, but each stack of books was in a specific order.
She worked without saying a word for about ten minutes before she almost finished gathering the documents on the table.
Fang Jun breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the mineral water on the table, took a big sip, and said:
"The accounts are basically finished. Mr. Xu, we can check them carefully tomorrow."
Xu Zhiquan then stood up:
"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Fang Jun. After you have been busy for a while, I will give you a long vacation to rest."
Fang Jun flipped through several account books on the table and said again: "I still haven't found any problems with these hidden accounts."
Xu Chen has also walked over:
"What is the content in these books?"
Fang Jun: “They are all trivial and unimportant payments, including things like buying stationery for the logistics and buying food in the canteen...
There are also some transactions that did not actually happen, but there are no clues. ”
Xu Chen: “What does it mean that it didn’t actually happen?”
Fang Jun: “I was originally planning to withdraw the account, but withdrew it due to various reasons.
For example, in this case, the canteen originally wanted to buy a batch of beef for 2,000 yuan. I was originally prepared to pay, but maybe I didn't need to buy it for some reason, so the account was withdrawn.
The factory's financial rules were set by the old finance minister many years ago, and these are also recorded in the accounts. ”
She paused and then said:
"Or give me some more time.
These days I am mainly calculating the capital accounts, which involve liquidating the current assets of the factory and repaying debts, which I am quite anxious about.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Now that it's almost done, I can check these accounts carefully.
Check every income and expenditure carefully, and you should still be able to find some problems.
After all, they wouldn't hide these books for no reason. ”
Xu Chen flipped through the accounts and said:
"There are at least several thousand of them, right? Did you find out that the year of the monkey is the year of the horse?"
He looked up at his father, Xu Zhiquan, and said:
"Dad, Zhao Jihong should be done with it, it's time to come and have a chat."
Xu Zhiquan lit a cigarette and nodded slightly.
Fang Jun: "What do you mean?"
Xu Chen: "If Jin Guiyuan has hidden any secrets, the only person in the factory who might know is the chief engineer Zhao Jihong.
Judging from their previous state, they looked like they were tied together.
Now it is almost certain that Jin Guiyuan arranged for these accounts to be taken out.
Zhao Jihong may know something. ”
Fang Jun thought for a while and said:
"Jin Guiyuan and Chief Master Zhao Jihong were indeed on the same rope before.
At that time, several vice-presidents were fighting among themselves, and Jin Guiyuan and Zhao Jihong formed an alliance, which finally led to the fight between the other two. ”
Xu Zhiquan: "I have confirmed from many sources that Zhao Jihong has no background to rely on now.
When I took over Guangming Factory, I deliberately took down Zhao Jihong immediately, just to see if Jin Guiyuan could save him and whether he had the ability to save him.
It was obvious that Jin Guiyuan didn't care about him at all.
Now Zhao Jihong should also feel cold and resentful towards Jin Guiyuan.
Now ask Zhao Jihong and you should be able to pry something out. ”
Fang Jun frowned and said:
"I don't think anyone in the world can play with you father and son."
Xu Zhiquan smiled heartily:
"Let's go and eat!"
In the large conference room, Li Rui, Zhao Feng and others put two tables together and filled them with packed meals.
These dishes are packed from outside restaurants, not made in the canteen.
These days, the canteen in the factory is mainly responsible for cooking for the workers. After making lunch boxes every day, they stew large pots of mung bean soup and drive them directly to several construction sites...
Xu Zhiquan walked in with a smile, followed by Xu Chen and Fang Jun.
Li Rui, Zhao Feng and others quickly and politely called Mr. Xu, Brother Chen, Teacher Fang...
After Xu Zhiquan sat down, he found that Li Rui, Zhao Feng and others were huddled behind, with no intention of serving.
He glanced at Xu Chen and said:
"Hurry up and let your brothers sit down. You are too polite to me, the chairman..."
Xu Chen smiled, turned to Li Rui, Zhao Feng and others and said:
"Sit down and eat quickly, Mr. Xu has spoken!"
Li Rui, Zhao Feng and others responded and then sat down around them.
Xu Zhiquan took a pair of clean chopsticks and put two pieces of braised pork into Fang Jun's bowl:
"Teacher Fang Jun, thank you for your hard work, hurry up and make up for it!
This braised pork is specially ordered for you, Xu Chen said you like it. ”
Fang Jun was stunned and looked up at Xu Chen:
"How do you know I like to eat?"
Xu Chen smiled and said: "When you are on a business trip in Shanghai, you always love it!"
Fang Jun: "I love to eat, but I am losing weight recently."
As she spoke, she took a big mouthful with an expressionless expression.
……
……
The next morning.
In the west of the city, there is a planting base of Chenxin seedlings.
Former chief engineer Zhao Jihong is learning to graft flowers and trees with Zhang Yongqing.
He seemed to be meticulous and his work attitude was serious.
Xu Zhiquan came over smoking a cigarette and said:
"Teacher Zhao, I didn't expect you to be here!"
Zhao Jihong stood up, showing a trace of embarrassment:
"I don't have any other skills. I have no income now and I still have to support my family... I just signed up with Director Yang.
Director Yang still missed some old friendships and knew that I couldn't do heavy work, so he arranged for me to come here! ”
Xu Zhiquan handed Zhao Jihong a cigarette, put his arm around his shoulders and said:
"Let's go and have a chat!"
……
In the open-air shed, Xu Zhiquan and Zhao Jihong sat on bamboo chairs and smoked.
Xu Zhiquan was silent for a while and then said:
"Mr. Zhao, please understand that we are going to transform into electric vehicles next, and there is really no way for you to serve as the chief engineer."
Zhao Jihong: "Mr. Xu, I can totally understand. I really don't understand electric vehicles.
It was also because I didn’t understand that I rejected Director Yang’s electric tricycle plan...
I completely understand, and it’s no one else’s fault. ”
Xu Zhiquan took a few more puffs of cigarette and said:
"I also have two friends who run machinery parts factories. I can recommend them to Teacher Zhao. They are both local in Tiancheng.
In addition, there is a machinery factory in Zicheng next door, with several hundred employees, and it is also looking for engineers...
But a private factory is definitely harder than Guangming Factory, but the money is more..."
Zhao Jihong smoked silently. His expression changed, but he did not speak.
Xu Zhiquan continued:
"I know you just bought a house for your children in the south of the city, and you still have to pay the mortgage every month..."
"Young master, you want to join the company in Xicheng, right? It's just right, I know the leader there..."
Zhao Jihong lowered his head and was silent for a while, then said:
"Mr. Xu, what exactly do you want me to do?"
Xu Zhiquan threw the cigarette butt on the ground and exhaled white smoke:
"When I received the financial accounts of the factory that day, someone hid several ledgers...
I want to know, what's in those ledgers? ”
Zhao Jihong took a few puffs of cigarette in silence:
"Mr. Xu, I really don't know..."
Xu Zhiquan smiled, took out a whole pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and stuffed it into Zhao Jihong's hand:
"It's okay, I'm just chatting with Teacher Zhao.
If Teacher Zhao wants to chat with me later, just call me anytime! ”
With that said, Xu Zhiquan stood up and left with his hands behind his back.
