Su Xiaotian was visiting Licheng for the first time, and having been to Licheng twice before, especially having lived in Licheng for a year, Su Ciliang took it upon himself to be the guide.
In reality, Licheng's development was rapid, it could be described as changing with each passing day.
Even though Su Ciliang had visited a year ago, he found it quite unfamiliar now.
Su Xiaotian watched with great interest, commenting on some of the landmark buildings.
The two did not take a car, but chose bicycles.
Su Manxiu and Chen Zi'an each had a bicycle, which was commandeered by the siblings today.
Riding their bicycles, the siblings watched the changes in Licheng as they headed towards the Licheng Luxiangxiang Branch Factory.
Soon, the siblings arrived at the factory gate in Licheng.
The factory in Licheng looked much more imposing than the one in Beijing, or rather, it had a stronger modern feel.
Most of the management and middle-level cadres in the factory were recommended by Chen Zi'an.
Some were locals, and some were soldiers who had retired a few years ago.
Su Ciliang had met all these people during his year in Licheng and had a good understanding of them.
In Su Ciliang's impression, these people were all trustworthy.
In the past few years, only Li Mumu had visited occasionally, and the factory continued to operate smoothly, which further indicated that these people were indeed trustworthy.
But no matter how much trust there was, Su Xiaotian did not understand these people. This time, she had to at least know herself and her enemy.
She planned to use these ten days to conduct a comprehensive understanding of the factory.
Only by understanding the factory and the people in it could she make further decisions.
Of course, the reason Su Xiaotian was so confident about the factory here was also because Chen Zi'an, a great Buddha, was holding the fort.
As long as Chen Zi'an was still in Licheng, it could be said that the factory here would definitely be normal.
Even if some people had ulterior motives during this period, they would only be minor skirmishes that were harmless.
No one would risk offending the top leader of Licheng to embezzle a little money, leading to their own eventual downfall in Licheng.
But Su Xiaotian believed that there would still be some people who harbored selfish intentions.
However, this time, Su Xiaotian also came with the intention of cleaning up the "small蛀虫" (small蛀虫 -蛀虫 means woodworm, here referring to corrupt or troublesome individuals) in the factory.
As for the method, Su Xiaotian's trump card was to use the "Heart of Plants and Trees" to inquire with the surrounding flowers and trees for preliminary understanding.
After the preliminary understanding, it would be to conduct an in-depth understanding through account information and find evidence.
Although Su Xiaotian had never been here, the factory director reported the factory's situation to Su Xiaotian twice a month.
Su Xiaotian still had a general understanding of the factory.
The factory here mainly processed aquatic products.
After all, a place that produced abundant aquatic products did not need to build a special farm to supply them.
A few months ago, it was reported that the second production line had been launched.
Moreover, the factory director excitedly said that they had recently developed several new flavored products, which sold very well. Su Dan Novel Network
At that time, Su Xiaotian had conveyed Beijing Luxiangxiang's series of incentive measures to the person in charge here, Yu Guanghui.
Yu Guanghui expressed his intention to promote such incentive methods in Licheng.
She didn't know how the promotion was going now.
It was already half-past nine in the morning.
There were not many people at the factory gate, indicating that the morning rush hour for work had passed.
There were no people moving back and forth in the entire factory.
Su Xiaotian and Su Ciliang parked their bicycles by the side and then went to the gatehouse to find someone.
In the gatehouse, two people were sitting and talking.
The two were not very old, which surprised Su Xiaotian.
Generally speaking, people who worked in the gatehouse were usually older.
These two, who looked only thirty or forty years old, why were they working in the gatehouse?
Su Xiaotian couldn't help but frown.
However, when the two came out to ask them what they wanted, Su Xiaotian finally understood why two such young people were at the gatehouse.
One of them was missing his left arm, and the other was lame.
Su Xiaotian looked at the heroic spirit in their brows and their upright posture despite their disabilities, and guessed that these two must have retired from the front lines.
At this moment, Su Xiaotian felt a greater sense of respect for the two.
"Hello, excuse me, is the factory director here?" Su Xiaotian asked very politely.
"May I ask what you need the factory director for?" one of them asked.
"Please tell the factory director that Su Xiaotian is here!"
When the person heard Su Xiaotian's words, he was stunned for a moment, not understanding what she meant.
However, anyone who could announce their name to the factory director was definitely not an ordinary person.
The person who had lost his left arm went inside to find the factory director, while the other person invited the two to sit in the gatehouse and wait for news.
"The factory director might have other matters, please sit inside the room first, it's more comfortable than standing outside."
After thanking him with a smile, Su Xiaotian entered the gatehouse.
Su Xiaotian was a very good conversationalist. Once inside the gatehouse, she quickly learned that the person in front of her was Gan Wenshan, who had been a soldier under Chen Zi'an in the early years.
Later, after being injured and discharged, his family faced financial difficulties. When Chen Zi'an learned of this, he settled him here.
Gan Wenshan was very satisfied with his current life. Earning enough money each month to support his family was his greatest satisfaction.
The one with the missing arm was called Miao Xin. The two of them were injured in the same battle and were also settled in the factory's gatehouse in the same batch.
Su Xiaotian said, "You are so young, are you going to spend your whole life in the gatehouse?"
Gan Wenshan said sadly, "What else can we do if not in the gatehouse? People like us can only be a burden if we work in the factory."
Su Xiaotian felt very distressed but didn't know how to comfort them.
Their injuries were serious, and it was indeed difficult to find other suitable jobs.
However, the salary for working in the gatehouse was indeed lower, and the salary increases were also slower than others.
For these people who had shed blood and sacrificed for the country, Su Xiaotian hoped that their future could be better.
Su Xiaotian did not dwell on this and subtly inquired about matters concerning the factory.
It had to be said that Gan Wenshan, being from a military background, was very cautious in answering these questions, and some more sensitive ones, he simply did not answer.
However, through chatting with Gan Wenshan, Su Xiaotian learned a lot about the factory.
Just then, Miao Xin came out, followed by a young man in a hurry.
Su Xiaotian guessed that this must be Yu Guanghui.
"Little boss, when did you arrive? Why didn't you inform us in advance?"
After Yu Guanghui arrived at the gatehouse, he immediately said very respectfully to Su Xiaotian.
Why didn't he doubt if the person in front of him was fake?
Su Ciliang was present.
Others might not recognize Su Ciliang, but Yu Guanghui, as the factory director, had interacted with this shrewd young man quite a bit before and naturally recognized him.
Gan Wenshan and Miao Xin were startled when they heard Yu Guanghui's address.
This young girl, who looked underage, was actually the real boss of their factory?
"Hello, Factory Director Yu, I just came on a whim to take a look." Su Xiaotian smiled and extended her hand to shake hands with Yu Guanghui.
