Siheyuan: Xu Damao wakes up in the world

Before long, Director Li arrived at the hotel in a green jeep. Xu Damao understood that Director Li came here by car specifically to save face for himself.

This had to make Xu Damao sigh, Director Li really knows how to behave. Human society is like this.

Just like those bosses with high emotional intelligence in later generations, no matter how hypocritical they are, they will still say that the company belongs to everyone and needs everyone to work together.

Only a stupid boss like that would say: If you don't want to do it, get out of here. Such people may be proud of themselves for a while, and they may be proud of themselves in the future, but there is no way around it, this is the reality.

A good person will not pay for his life, and the harm will last for thousands of years, but no matter what, his stupid nature cannot be changed.

It’s not that we don’t want to repay, the time has not come yet, in many cases, it’s just the good wishes in people’s hearts.

After a while, Director Zhu, Deputy Director Ma, and Instructor Niu from the next jurisdiction came straight to Quanjude with about twenty people. After seeing Xu Damao and Liu Lan standing at the door from a distance, they Walking quickly and hastily.

Those who knew it were going to a banquet, but those who didn't know thought they were going to hunt wolves.

At this time, Liu Lan's role became apparent. Liu Lan enthusiastically greeted the non-leadership staff and arranged for them to sit down. Xu Damao took Director Zhu, Deputy Director Ma, and Instructor Niu to the designated private room.

Naturally, a leader like Director Li cannot go out to greet him. Letting him wait proactively is already giving Director Zhu and the others face. No matter what, Director Li is also a deputy department-level cadre, and Director Zhu is a department-level cadre. There is a huge difference. .

This is simply unimaginable in later generations.

Director Li is a veteran at dinner parties, so he can handle this kind of situation with ease. At this time, another advantage of Director Li was shown. He could take the initiative to lower his status and get along with Director Zhu and others easily.

"Da Mao, today is your home court, you should express your gratitude first." After the simple greetings passed, Director Li suggested.

Xu Damao didn't play the old one, three small, two, five, ten. Although that would enhance the atmosphere of the wine bureau, it would be a bit self-indulgent.

Xu Damao changed the set of toasts and came up with a set of toasts from one to ten. At this time, people had never seen such a toast full of good words. Their eyes lit up and they cheered.

"What's wrong with this? If you see the banquet companions from all over the world in the future, the toasts they say will be nothing short of ridiculous. If you don't drink yourself down, you will be sorry for your own conscience." Xu Damao thought to himself. .

It's easy to say that the atmosphere was heightened. For a while, they were chatting with each other, and soon they started calling each other brothers.

Xu Damao was really secretly glad that he had met a leader like Director Li who was willing to give up his status and call these people brothers. If it were Factory Director Yang, it would be strange for him to ignore you.

While the wine was in full swing, Xu Damao once again keenly sensed that these people did not blame him for Silly Zhu's incident. Moreover, Xu Damao faintly felt that they seemed to have something to demand of him, and their words were mostly in pursuit of him.

Xu Damao glanced at Director Li without leaving any trace. With just one glance, Xu Damao confirmed what he was thinking.

Although these people are experienced and experienced in the wine shop, they are far inferior to Director Li. Director Li has reached the state of returning to his original nature and can tell what they are thinking at a glance.

Director Li then gave Xu Damao a wink. Then, after the guys had a few more drinks, Director Li said: "I can't do it anymore. I can't do it anymore. I'm old and my body can't bear it anymore. From now on, it belongs to you young people. You young people People need to communicate more.”

After some courtesy and humility, Director Li Shi Shiran left.

During this trip, Director Li first asked Xu Damao to find out what they were thinking. After all, their behavior was a bit weird; second, he asked Xu Damao to quickly stuff the money and settle the matter.

Pushing money is also a technical job. No matter how arrogant Xu Damao is, he can't push money to Director Niu and others in front of Director Li, unless Director Niu and others are Director Li's confidants.

As soon as Director Li left, the atmosphere was not dull, but became more relaxed. After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Xu Damao hadn't found a chance to talk about the topic, so Director Zhu took the initiative to speak.

"Brother Damao, we all understand your situation, we also understand what you mean, and we feel your sincerity. Brother Damao spent a lot of money today. Come on, let me toast Brother Damao." Director Zhu said When he was done, he picked up the glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.

"Director Zhu is being polite. This is what you should do. You will have to trouble Director Zhu in the future." Xu Damao said.

"Da Mao, you are out of town, call me brother." Director Zhu said.

"We are all our own. Damao, you are out of touch. Why don't you punish yourself with three cups of wine and apologize to your brother Zhu." Deputy Director Ma said with a smile.

"Brother Zhu, it was my fault. I will punish myself with three drinks." Xu Damao said quickly and drank three drinks in a row.

"Good drinker! Come on, brother Damao, let's have a drink too." After Deputy Director Ma finished speaking, he also picked up the wine in the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Xu Damao could only accompany him. After Deputy Director Ma finished, he was followed by Instructor Niu. After Instructor Niu finished, I don’t know how they greeted their subordinates. Their subordinates came to toast Xu Damao one by one.

Euphemistically saying thank you to Xu Damao for the treat and so on.

Xu Damao understood that this was obviously an attempt to get him drunk. Although his physique was different from before, he couldn't withstand so many people getting drunk.

"Brother Zhu, Brother Ma and Brother Niu, there are no outsiders now. If you have anything to say, just say it. Brother, I will do whatever I can." Xu Damao said quickly.

In Xu Damao's view, the only thing he can use is his identity as a movie projectionist. Do they want him to show movies to them?

This is wrong. If they really want to show a movie, they can just say hello to the steel rolling mill.

"Brother Damao, it's shameless to talk about this. It's my brother who is incompetent and can't take care of his brothers. He's not afraid of Brother Damao's jokes. It's been a year, a full year. Only then can he be happy without any psychology. Eat a full meal full of oil and water under pressure." Director Zhu said with a sad look on his face.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Brother Zhu, I don't have enough education. Don't lie to me. Hasn't the famine passed? Even if it hasn't passed, your company has so much extra money, how could it be short of oil and water?" Xu Damao said in disbelief.

"Brother Damao, you don't know something. We are just a small street police station. We are naturally incomparable with your big steel rolling mill."

"Besides, times have changed. It's a new world, a new atmosphere. The old way of playing cards and getting cards won't work anymore. If you still dare to play the old way, you're just looking for death." Director Zhu said.

Xu Damao nodded. This time period is no better than before or in the future. No matter whether it was thirty years before or thirty years in the future, if you say that an organization like theirs is short of oil and water, you are simply not awake.

At this time, workers are the big brothers. People want to go to the factory. They are stuck at the most difficult time;

In the future, people will go to work units like theirs instead of factories. This is the characteristic of the times.

"Then it's not so miserable, right? Everyone has a ration, how can we still be hungry?" Xu Damao was puzzled.

"Brother Damao, you are on to the point. We all have rations and we are not hungry. Even if we bring the whole family with us, we can barely make ends meet."

"But in our industry, except for a few civilian workers, most of them have to do manual labor. Although our physical labor is different from the physical labor in your steel rolling mill, the risk is different." Deputy Director Ma continued.

"Indeed, your work is too dangerous." Xu Damao nodded.

At this time, society was not very stable. Even Xu Damao himself had to bring a gun when he went to the countryside to show movies, let alone them?

"So, it's not enough for us to just have enough food and clothing. We need to have oil and water in our stomachs. This physical labor consumes too much. Without oil and water in our stomachs, we can't hold on. Civilians who sit in the office can't hold on, and some of us who work in the field can't hold on. Can not be done."

"Brother Damao, let me tell you the truth. Don't think that we are very glamorous outside. In fact, we are just gold and jade. We say we have a lot of extra money. In fact, our extra money can only come from the black market, but the rest of the money we get from the black market few."

"Leave aside the fact that if you want to take advantage of the black market, you need joint action, and most of the profits will go out. Just talking about the black market, everyone is aware of it, and the higher-ups turn a blind eye. This kind of action cannot happen every day."

"So, the three of us discussed and wanted to ask Brother Damao for a favor. Brother Damao has to go to the countryside to show movies every month. Can you help us purchase some plans while going to the countryside to show movies? Something outside." Director Zhu finally said what he wanted.

"Can I alone meet your requirements with this amount of purchasing? Why don't you purchase it yourself?" Xu Damao asked strangely.
