Chapter 2293 The Nine Departments’ Stabilizing Force

January 6, 1968, the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Xiaohan.

Hongxing Machinery Factory, Yang Xiaotao's office.

On the table, two large piles of information reports were arranged on the left and right. The person in the middle read the report in his hand, then made corrections, and then put it aside.

Then he casually took one off the pile and continued correcting.

Not far away, Lou Xiao'e was sorting out the information submitted by the local government, and Liu Lixue was helping to sort out the files.

Now, Lou Xiao'e and Liu Lixue have become Yang Xiaotao's secretaries. They are also very busy, and it is said that they have even declined the opportunity to watch movies.

Of course, Yang Xiaotao was still very curious about Liu Lixue becoming Yang Xiaotao's secretary.

Because this was assigned to him by Mr. Chen.

At this time, Yang Xiaotao realized how big Liu Lixue's backing was.

Don't look at Yang Xiaotao who recognized his uncle by relying on his thick skin.

But I was born with a biological uncle.

At the same time, I also understand why the superiors knew so quickly when there was some movement in the Red Star Machinery Factory.

Now that they were arranged to be by his side, Yang Xiaotao didn't think it was surveillance.

On the contrary, I think this is an opportunity.

A chance to take a stand.

At this time, there were sudden sounds of chaotic footsteps in the corridor, and then the door was opened and three figures walked in.

"Buy Yang, Director Hong and Factory Director Li are here."

Wang Hao's voice came, and Yang Xiaotao, who was buried in documents at his desk, suddenly looked up.

"Lao Hong, Lao Li, you are here!"

"I'll be waiting for you these two days!"

The two of them were Lao Hong who came back from the northwest.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao step forward, Li Chengjun smiled and said, "Mr. Yang, no, it should be Department Yang. We heard about it on the way here. This is a huge event!"

Yang Xiaotao waved his hands after hearing this, "Big things happen one after another. I'm so busy that I can't even get out of the office!"

"Lao Hong, now that you are here, our team will be complete, and I will be relieved!"

"Stop coming!"

Lao Hong looked frightened when he heard this, "Why do you need to worry about it? I'm not here to be a bully or a horse for you!"

"No, no, no, you don't need to be responsible for the cows and horses. You just need to take care of the logistics!"

Yang Xiaotao said quickly, then took out the appointment letter from the drawer and stuffed it directly into Lao Hong's hand, "Keep this thing yourself!"

Lao Hong glanced at the appointment letter. Although his expression remained calm, he was inexplicably excited.

Finally, no more wasting time!

Yang Xiaotao felt his shoulders relax.

Since the establishment of Jiubu, a heavy burden has been weighing on his shoulders, and there is endless work to do every day.

What about the expansion of the branch factory, what about the scheduling of personnel, what about the coordination in the workshop, and the arrangements of various research institutes...

During this period, if it weren't for the help of Li Hongfeng, Liu Huaimin and the others, as well as the efforts of the various directors below, it would have been extremely difficult for everyone to get it running.

That's it, his job now is to sign in the office every day.

It’s still the kind that requires understanding and writing opinions on how to deal with it.

That's not all.

The new first secretary Li Hongfeng gave him the feeling of being 'rude'.

On the first day of employment, Yang Xiaotao was asked to establish a hard and simple style of work in Jiubu. Yang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment.

Their Hongxing Machinery Factory has always been like this, okay?

There is also the issue of waste, which has been discussed several times in meetings over the past few days.

If it were someone else, Yang Xiaotao might fight back.

However, this first secretary leads by example. The newly issued cotton-padded clothes were said to be donated, the arranged car was rejected, and the food was always made from steamed buns and vegetarian dishes.

So much so that every time they ate together, they would feel ashamed when they looked at the food on each other's plates and then on their own rice bowls.

Yang Xiaotao has no temper at all when dealing with people who lead by example.

But, Yang Xiaotao thinks that he can obviously have a good life, so he won't be asking for trouble.

But he didn't dare to say these words, because Yang Xiaotao knew that the other party's heart was still in the mountains to the south.

This feeling is like the bearing connection is missing lubricant, and the friction is uncomfortable.

This feeling is not only felt by Yang Xiaotao, but also by Liu Huaimin, Yang Youning and others.

In addition, there are workers in the workshop.

In their words, they have earned a good life through hard work, so why do they have to endure hardship?

Isn't that a big fool?

Perhaps Li Hongfeng was aware of this feeling, or perhaps not.

But Yang Xiaotao knew that sooner or later this would cause estrangement, but he couldn't bring it up yet.

Now that Lao Hong is here, Yang Xiaotao finally breathes a sigh of relief.

Because this Lao Hong is the lubricant he chooses.

"Come on, sit in the room!"

"Xiao'e, go and call Secretary Li, Secretary Liu, Director Yang and others!"

Lou Xiao'e ran out with a smile, and Yang Xiaotao asked the two of them to sit down, then began to pour water and get cigarettes.

"How are they, sister-in-law? I told Qiuye that you were coming back, and she is still thinking about Teacher Zhang!"

"The boy at home is still thinking about his Brother Hu Zi!"

Lao Hong put the appointment certificate carefully and then smiled heartily, "I asked her to come back, but she said she couldn't let go of the students over there, so she didn't come back!"

"Let's wait until it's safe here!"

"As for Hu Zi, he is in the special forces team at the moment. By the way, when he came back, Mr. He said that he asked Lao Liang to have a conversation and talk about the two special forces teams!"

Yang Xiaotao slapped his thigh after hearing this, "What a coincidence, Lao Liang also mentioned this yesterday."

"It's said that there are nine departments, so it's best to coordinate them in a unified way!"

Li Chengjun nodded after hearing this, "That's right, it was easy to say before, but now it's nine departments, it's a bit inappropriate for us to have two more teams!"

Yang Xiaotao hummed, then looked at Li Chengjun, "Uncle Li, my dad heard that you are coming back, but he missed you. If he wasn't busy there, he would come over no matter what!"

Yang Xiaotao said to Li Chengjun again, and Li Chengjun also missed his colleagues in the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building, "That's easy, wait for me to find him!"

While the three were talking, Li Hongfeng and Liu Huaimin walked in.

Lao Hong and the other two stood up immediately, but Li Hongfeng stepped forward first, came to Lao Hong and raised his hand.

"Hello, Chief!"

Everyone was stunned, but Lao Hong stepped forward and gently put down Li Hongfeng's hand.

"Comrade Hongfeng, long time no see!"

The two hands were tightly clasped together.

"Chief."

Li Hongfeng was about to speak, but Lao Hong waved his hand, "There is no chief here, that's all in the past."

"Now, we only have Lao Hong here, Lao Hong who is working for the revolution."

Li Hongfeng nodded, "Okay!"

"I am satisfied to be able to continue fighting with you."

"You should be relieved."

Yang Xiaotao suddenly interrupted, "Lao Hong, you don't know that our first secretary is always thinking about the front line and has insufficient confidence in our nine departments."

Hearing Yang Xiaotao say this, Li Hongfeng didn't care and said generously Fang admitted, "That was before, I didn't know much about our Nine Departments."

"Now I know one thing, that is to make the Nine Departments run faster and more steadily."

Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)

"And with you joining, I am even more confident."

Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "Look, Lao Hong, you are quite popular."

"I think you can find a few more people to help, after all, we are now a big family."

At this point, Li Hongfeng also nodded.

Because the Nine Departments are really big families.

"Don't think of me, I come to work for you, and you still want to buy one get more, how can such a good thing happen."

"Buy one get one free is also fine!"

"I'll go to you."

Everyone laughed, and then Lao Hong looked at Liu Huaimin.

"Secretary Liu!"

"Old Hong, no, just call me Old Liu!"

"Okay, Old Liu, we will work together from now on. If you have anything to say, just say it. The only advantage of me is that I am thick-skinned and not afraid of what people say."

Old Hong said generously, and Liu Huaimin admired him very much. At the same time, he also knew that his ability was far inferior to that of Li Hongfeng, not to mention the one in front of him.

During this period, Li Hongfeng handled the affairs of the organization with ease.

He is worthy of being a leader who coordinates more than 100,000 people.

The one in front of him has done logistics work for hundreds of thousands of people.

This, this is really incomparable.

"Old Hong, we will be a family from now on."

Old Hong nodded vigorously, shook his hand, and his expression was grateful.

"Yes, yes, yes, we should not be polite to our own people, except calling him!"

Yang Youning smiled on the side. After all, the ages of several people were about the same, and only Yang Xiaotao was the same age as their children.

But Yang Xiaotao is the oldest, so it is really difficult to address him.

Yang Xiaotao rolled his eyes, "You can call me whatever you want, anyway, my old people call me by my nickname!"

Lao Hong laughed, "Xiao Tao!"

He lived in Yangjiazhuang for a while, so he naturally knew Yang Xiaotao's nickname.

Thinking of this, Lao Hong thought of the villagers in Yangjiazhuang. Those years were the most difficult time for him.

Fortunately, there are Yang Xiaotao and Mr. Yang.

"I'll go back to Yangjiazhuang when I have time!"

Yang Xiaotao nodded immediately, "That's easy."

"I'll go back with you after this busy period!"

Lao Hong laughed again.

When everyone met, the office was bustling.

Yang Youning clapped his hands, "Well, I suggest that we get together at noon today!"

"Let Comrade Yang Xiaotao be the host, and we can have a good time first, which can also be regarded as a welcome for the comrades, how about it?"

"Hey, Lao Yang, you proposed it, shouldn't you be the host?"

Yang Xiaotao shouted immediately, but Yang Youning spread his hands, "No way, who made you a big family!"

"How about everyone raise their hands to vote?"

"Okay, I agree, our Yangbu has been a big family for a long time."

Old Hong immediately spoke up and stood on the side of Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning.

Li Hongfeng also raised his hand, "I agree, I heard from the comrades that the chili sauce made by Yangbu is delicious, it's a good time to try it."

Liu Huaimin laughed, "Not only chili sauce, but also fermented bean curd, which is even better with rice."

Li Chengjun beside him also raised his hand silently, with a smug smile on his face, as if he didn't say anything, he would take care of the food.

Yang Xiaotao rolled his eyes, "You have all discussed it, why are you raising your hands? It's unnecessary!"

Everyone laughed immediately after hearing this.

"Let's go, let's eat and talk."

After saying that, Yang Youning led everyone away.

Yang Xiaotao looked back at Lou Xiao'e and the two of them, "Divide the documents on the table and send all logistical matters to Director Hong's office."

Lao Hong, who was walking in front, said to Li Hongfeng next to him, "Look, you still have to work to eat his meal."

Li Hongfeng nodded immediately, "It's good. Yesterday, I went to the Seventh Machinery Department to hide for a day. Today, it was easy to get stuck."

"Hey, this is laziness, please order more meat dishes."

"It's necessary."

A few people in front were laughing loudly, but Yang Xiaotao was indifferent behind him with his hands behind his back.

As long as there are fewer documents on the table, a meal is nothing.

Soon, several people came to the living room. After a while, Chen Gong and Wang Guodong came in after hearing the news, and Yang Xiaotao introduced them again.

Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning also added on the side. They also knew Lao Hong's future position in the Ninth Department. As comrades in the same trench, trust is the most important.

Of course, after just a short period of contact, they discovered the unique charm of Lao Hong.

I also understand why Yang Xiaotao invited this person to come out.

To put it bluntly, Lao Hong is the Dinghai Shenzhen of Jiubu.
