Chapter 209 Taking over the new job Ning Weidong left home, rode his bicycle straight to the department. He was not unfamiliar with this place, as both Father Wang and Father Zhao worked here. Park your bike and go to the mail room first. "Hello, comrade. I'm looking for Director Wang from the Personnel Department." Ning Weidong came to the mail room with a smile. The person in the mailroom took a look, then picked up the phone and dialed, then asked, "Comrade, what's your name?" Ning Weidong gave his name, and a middle-aged man came down from upstairs a few meters away and stretched out his hand: "Comrade Ning Weidong!" Ning Weidong immediately went up to him, shook his hand and said, "Hello, leader~" Director Wang shook Ning Weidong's hand and said, "You're welcome. Just call me Old Wang." Ning Weidong smiled but didn't take it seriously. It was their first meeting and they were far from being that familiar with each other. Director Wang asked, "Comrade Weidong, have you and Ruyi set a date for your wedding?"

Ning Weidong was stunned for a moment, then he understood what the other party meant. This person was Zhao's father's man, at least from the same faction, so he should be one of them. But there is no guarantee that the other party is not just pretending to be close, or not close but just pretending to be close. Ning Weidong responded carefully and followed the other party upstairs. When they arrived at the office upstairs, Director Wang had already prepared some of the corresponding things. All he needed was Ning Weidong to come over, sign and stamp, and complete the procedures. After about ten minutes, Ning Weidong's personnel relationship was officially transferred from the Red Star Factory to the ministry, and his administrative level was officially changed to section level. After finishing the work, Ning Weidong thanked Director Wang again. After coming out of the Cadre Department, I went upstairs again. Go to the secretariat first and knock on the door. "Comrade, who are you looking for?" A young woman sitting at the door looked up and asked. I was stunned when I saw Ning Weidong. With his tall stature, handsome appearance, smiling face and sincere tone, it is hard not to notice him. Ning Weidong said politely: "Hello, comrade, I'm looking for Section Chief Sun." The other party looked at Ning Weidong, turned around and looked inside the big office and said, "Wait a moment~ Sun Ke just went out." Ning Weidong nodded, said thank you: "Then I'll wait in the corridor." Then he stepped out the door. After a few minutes, a man in his thirties, wearing a long-sleeved white shirt and black-framed glasses, came back from outside. He saw Ning Weidong, took a quick look and immediately smiled: "Ning Weidong~" Ning Weidong reacted: "You are Brother Sun!" He immediately went up to him and shook his hand. This Section Chief Sun was the secretary of Wang's father. Ning Weidong had never met him before, but Section Chief Sun should have seen Ning Weidong's photo. Coupled with Ning Weidong's body shape and appearance, he recognized him at a glance. Secretary Sun smiled and said, "I've heard a lot about you from Weiguo and Yuzhen. Today I see that you are indeed handsome and extraordinary."

Ning Weidong knew that Secretary Sun, as the chief secretary of the king's father, was almost like his father's son, so he said modestly: "Brother Sun, I feel embarrassed for you to be like this. But you..." After some business exchanging between the two, Ning Weidong and Secretary Sun entered the office again. He poured Ning Weidong a cup of tea and looked at his watch: "The leader is meeting with guests, please wait a few minutes." Ning Weidong had no objection. He had met Wang's father once before, but they didn't talk much. Today I will mainly explain the ideas of opening up the speed connection channel. Ning Weidong had only talked to Zhao's father in person before, and had not formally reported it to this side. At present, the Wang and Zhao families are closely related. At the latest in the first half of next year, Wang's father will step down and probably go to the Advisory Committee. Zhao's father will take over. By then, Secretary Sun should be transferred to another position. Ning Weidong chatted with Secretary Sun for a while, and the phone on the desk rang. Secretary Sun picked up the phone and immediately took Ning Weidong out to Wang's father's office. Ning Weidong was not nervous as it was his first time here. Today's visit was just a formality. Wang's father was still the same, with his gray hair combed back, and his complexion did not look good due to his poor spleen and stomach. In fact, strictly speaking, Wang’s father is not too old, but his health has deteriorated in the past few years and he can no longer withstand the high-intensity work. "Xiao Ning~" Father Wang looked Ning Weidong up and down with a smile. Ning Weidong stood at attention and said, "Leader, Ning Weidong reports to you." The king's father came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be shy, sit down~" Ning Weidong responded, but this was not his home, so he remained well-behaved and only sat halfway on the sofa. Wang's father went straight to the point and said, "I heard about your idea from Lao Zhao. It's a very good idea..." Ning Weidong listened carefully and could tell that the other party was not opposed to this. He then asked some more detailed questions and talked for about half an hour before letting Ning Weidong leave. After coming out of Wang's father's office and meeting Secretary Sun again, Ning Weidong could feel that the other party was obviously more enthusiastic than before. Although Secretary Sun was also very enthusiastic just now, that was because of the relationship between Ning Weiguo and Wang Yuzhen. But the fact that Ning Weidong stayed in Wang's father's office for half an hour is more telling. Ning Weidong doesn't just rely on nepotism, but he really has something in his head, otherwise someone at Wang's father's level would never waste so much time on him. Ning Weidong then went to see another Director Zhang. Dongyi Company was transferred from the Machinery Bureau to the Ministry and became a directly managed unit. At present, it is assigned to Director Zhang.

Director Zhang is in his forties, of medium build, thin, and gives people the impression of being very serious. He wasn't too enthusiastic when he saw Ning Weidong, but he wasn't cold to him either. In fact, just now, Director Zhang already knew that Ning Weidong had been in Wang's father's office for half an hour. Anyone who can hold this position in the government must be a smart person. Finally, after coming out from Director Zhang's place, Ning Weidong breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at his watch and it was already eleven o'clock. Before I knew it, the morning had passed. Ning Weidong took his bicycle and went straight back to the courtyard of Dongyi Company. At the front yard gate, Uncle Zheng saw Ning Weidong and called out "Manager Ning". Although Zhao Ruyu left, Uncle Zheng still stays here and can be considered one of our own. Ning Weidong responded politely. Walking further inside, just as he reached the hanging flower gate, he saw Qin Huairu coming out of the kitchen and calling Ning Weidong nervously. "Manager Ning, Manager Zhao has been transferred. Our cafeteria..." Ning Weidong knew what she was worried about, and said with a smile: "Aunt Qin, don't worry, the cafeteria will be normal for now, and I will contact you later if there are any arrangements." Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from Ning Weidong's tone, he knew that the cafeteria would not be cancelled. She had been feeling very uneasy these past two days. No one had expected that Zhao Ruyu would pass away like that. Although Ning Weidong is an acquaintance now, it is hard to say what the rules will be after Ning Weidong comes. Qin Huairu is now in charge of cooking here. She earns more than 20 yuan a month, plus money to buy groceries and grains. Although she doesn't get any cash, she can at least bring some food and drinks home. Secondly, she has decided to let her two children take over her job at the factory. If Ning Weidong came and directly cancelled the canteen or replaced it with someone else, she would be in trouble. The only good news now is that the relationship between my youngest daughter and Ning Wei is probably settled. I secretly decided to ask Huaihua to ask Ning Wei when I go back tonight. Ning Weidong didn't have those thoughts. This small canteen would definitely be kept in the future. He would have to recruit people in the next step. There would be at least dozens of people working here in the future. They needed a place to eat, and he might even have to recruit two more people. Qin Huairu alone was not enough. Arriving at the courtyard, Ning Weidong went in through the hanging flower gate and stood there for a few seconds. I've been here many times before, but today is different. At this time, Ning Wei came out of the side room, took a few quick steps to Ning Weidong, and called out "Third Brother". He had been watching in the room just now, and came out immediately when he saw Ning Weidong appear. Ning Wei was very happy when he knew that Ning Weidong was going to replace Zhao Ruyu. Although Zhao Ruyu treated him well, he was not as comfortable with Ning Weidong as he was with him. He had to be careful about everything. Especially although others don’t know, Ning Wei knows in his heart that Ning Weidong bought a house for Shi Xiaonan outside. If Zhao Ruyu knew about this, he might not know how Ning Weidong would react, and he, as the one who handled it, would definitely be in trouble.

Now that Zhao Ruyu is gone and Ning Weidong is here, all problems have been solved. Behind Ning Wei, Wang Xuewen, Zhao Chunming and Liu Dong also came out. Ning Weidong greeted them, and Wang Kaixuan also came out from the opposite room, laughing and saying, "Manager Ning, my brother Ning..." Ning Weidong's coming is also good news for Wang Kaixuan. Although gender equality is emphasized nowadays, Wang Kaixuan always felt uncomfortable under Zhao Ruyu's control. He would feel much more comfortable if it were Ning Weidong, because Ning Weidong was better than him in many aspects. He is taller, more handsome, and more beautiful than him. He is also stronger and better at fighting than him. Wang Kaixuan really can't be jealous of such a person. And there was another person following behind Wang Kaixuan. This man has a dignified appearance, is about meters tall, has bronze skin, sharp eyes, and an awe-inspiring demeanor. At first glance, he is a tough guy from the army. After saying hello, Wang Kaixuan introduced: "Brother Ning, it's a coincidence today. Let me introduce you to someone. This is my good friend Hu Bayi..." Ning Weidong had guessed the identity of the man in front of him just now, and he smiled and stretched out his hand: "Mr. Hu, I have heard Fatty Wang talk about your past many times." Hu Bayi was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hands and shook hands with Ning Weidong, and said with a wry smile: "Manager Ning, please forgive me, I was ignorant when I was a child." Ning Weidong said: "What's the matter with manager or not..." The two sides exchanged some pleasantries, and then Ning Wei took the people around him back. Ning Wei and his men are different from Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi. They are Ning Weidong's subordinates. Wang Kaixuan seemed to be more obedient to orders than to announcements. After all, he came from a different background, and the last time he returned to Fujian Province, Wang Kaixuan regained some connections, so he had some resources of his own. Ning Weidong was not surprised that Hu Bayi appeared here. Compared to Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi's situation is actually better, after all, his father is still alive~ This can also be seen from the two people's experiences. Although both of them went to the countryside in Northeast China, Hu Bayi joined the army very early, while Wang Kaixuan had to endure the hardships for several years. The only bad thing is Hu Bayi's character. He is too loyal and too impulsive. Otherwise, with his conditions, he would definitely be able to get a star in the future. Ning Weidong brought Hu and Wang to the upper room, brewed a pot of tea himself, and poured it for them: "Old Hu, I heard from Fatty that you were in the army, how did you recover so well?" Hu Bayi sighed and said, "Oh, don't mention it..." He talked a lot, and told about how he shot and killed prisoners in a rage on the battlefield. Ning Weidong frowned and said, "No, this isn't a big deal. It shouldn't be hard to cover it up. Why are you making a big deal out of it?" Hu Bayi's face turned ugly. He lowered his head to drink tea without responding. Ning Weidong understood instantly that this might involve the grudges of Hu Bayi's father's generation. But then again, what happened to Hu Bayi is real, and people have found out about his weakness, so they can only accept it. As for returning to his hometown, he went to Beijing to find Wang Kaixuan. Speaking of which, it is related to Ning Weidong.

Hu Bayi joined the army and later lost contact with Wang Kaixuan. If Wang Kaixuan hadn't gone back last time and reconnected with Ren Jiefang, Hu Bayi wouldn't have come directly to Beijing this time. After explaining the basic situation, Wang Kaixuan said, "Brother Ning, you also know about Lao Hu's situation. Why don't you let him come to our company..." Ning Weidong was waiting for this sentence, and laughed: "That's great! In fact, I wanted to say it a long time ago, but I was afraid that my temple was too small, so I didn't dare to open my mouth." Ning Weidong was not being polite. In fact, Hu Bayi's value was far higher than Wang Kaixuan's. As I said, Hu Bayi's father is still alive, and this is something Wang Kaixuan can't compare to. With Hu Bayi, we can definitely leverage more resources. Ning Weidong immediately said, "Old Hu, now that we've come to this, you should come to my place and be a deputy manager. All the treatment will be the same as Fatty's." Hu Bayi breathed a sigh of relief. He actually had no idea what was going on this time. One is with Wang Kaixuan. After all, we haven’t been in touch for several years. Even if we were good friends when we were young, it’s hard to say whether we are still in touch now. The second is what Zhao Ruyu's attitude towards him would be. After all, he was expelled with a stain on his face. I didn't expect that after meeting Wang Kaixuan yesterday and Ning Weidong today, the matter was settled. It went more smoothly than I could have imagined. Moreover, during their contact and conversation, he had a feeling that Ning Weidong seemed inexplicably familiar with him, even though they had never met before. At this time, Ning Weidong asked again: "By the way, Lao Hu, where is your personnel relationship now?" Speaking of this, Hu Bayi said awkwardly, "I'm staying in my hometown for the time being." Ning Weidong said: "I'll contact them later and transfer the personnel relationship. Our company is now under the direct management of the ministry and is temporarily a department-level unit..." Wang Kaixuan's eyes lit up: "Fuck, when did this happen? How come I didn't know about it?" Ning Weidong glanced at him and said, "You shouldn't go to the supply and marketing cooperative at the street corner to flirt with the salesperson. You don't have to know anything." Wang Kaixuan didn't even blush, and laughed: "I was there to cultivate friendship with Ge Ming~ Hey, it's a department-level unit, I'm the deputy manager, that means I'm a deputy department head! Brother Ning, you are really my brother." (End of this chapter)
