"Brother Xiucheng, you are so awesome! Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing earlier?"

Su Xiaomeng was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. Managing the machinery factory meant that Li Xiucheng would have a higher status than the factory director in the future. This was something she could not even dream of before.

At that time, Li Xiucheng wanted to join the machinery factory as an ordinary worker, but it was Su Dongguo who Su Xiaomeng went to beg for help, and it took a lot of effort to get him in.

"This matter is relatively hidden. Mayor Li and the person in charge of the Zhao Group came to talk to me specifically. The process has not been approved yet, so it is difficult to talk about it outside, for fear of causing trouble."

"Well, that seems right. If the people in the factory knew that you were in charge, they would probably bother you every day."

"Yes, and although it has been agreed upon now, it will not be settled until the documents are issued. If anything happens, the faces of those people will be different again."

"Yeah, brother Xiucheng, you are very thoughtful. Don't worry, I will never say a word."

"So Xiaomeng, don't worry, I will develop the machinery factory well and make it more efficient than it is now."

"As for layoffs, there may be some. This will have to be arranged after I take office."

"Are we really going to lay off people?"

Su Xiaomeng was frightened when she heard about the layoffs.

"Of course, you also know that there are some people in the factory who just take money and do nothing. After I take over the factory, I will not keep such people. And those who are cheating, I will lay off all of them."

"Well, okay. Brother Xiucheng, I believe you will make the machine factory better."

Su Xiaomeng felt much more at ease after knowing this. No matter how the rumors spread outside, she remained unusually calm.

So many people were talking behind their backs that Su Xiaomeng relied on Li Xiucheng to be rich and didn't care about the salary.

Su Xiaomeng has such worries, and so does the Su family.

Su Dongguo is an old master in the factory. He is already old, and now he basically doesn’t do any work anymore and lets his apprentices do the work.

If the layoffs were really changed, people like Su Dongguo would be the first to bear the brunt.

This made Su Dongguo so anxious that he couldn't eat or sleep every day, and kept a straight face all day long.

Xu Qiaoling has been turning a deaf ear to Zhou Huiqin.

He said that Su Jiaqiang's current position is low, his salary is not high and he is tired. If Su Dongguo also loses his job, it will be difficult for his family.

It was said that Zhou Huiqin was asked to invite Su Xiaomeng and Li Xiucheng back and said that either Su Jiaqiang would be promoted and his salary increased, or Xu Qiaoling would be arranged to work as well.

Zhou Huiqin also felt that what Xu Qiaoling said was reasonable. Su Jiaqiang's current salary alone could not support the family of five.

So Zhou Huiqin went to Su Xiaomeng and asked her to take Duoduo and Li Xiucheng back to Su's house for dinner, saying that she missed Duoduo.

Su Xiaomeng didn't think too much, so she took her family back to Su's house.

At the dinner table, while eating, Zhou Huiqin began to complain.

"Xiucheng, aren't you the big boss of the billiards center? Look at the job you arranged for Jiaqiang. He is so tired every day and can't make much money."

"Mom, our billiards factory has a piece-rate pay system. I told my elder brother about the system early in the morning. He said it was okay, so I let him go to the factory."

"Actually, that job is still simple. It's just that my eldest brother is not very good at it now. He will get better in the future."

"The quickest masters in our factory can make hundreds of dollars a month."

Li Xiucheng explained that Su Jiaqiang was also embarrassed and lowered his head.

Su Jiaqiang actually knew that it was his own problem. The masters in the factory had taught him step by step, but he was still slow.

Moreover, because he is Li Xiucheng's uncle, the workers in the factory often help him with some work. Su Jiaqiang's job in the factory is actually quite easy.

"But Jiaqiang is your brother, how can he be the same as an ordinary worker!"

Zhou Huiqin looked unhappy, and she felt that Li Xiucheng had not made arrangements for Su Jiaqiang.

In Zhou Huiqin's view, it would be best for Su Jiaqiang to be like Li Xiucheng, who doesn't have to go to work every day and can still make a lot of money and drive a Mercedes-Benz.

"Although the eldest brother is my brother, he doesn't know anything about the current situation in the factory, and he can't just come up and become the management. This won't convince the public either!"

"Jia Qiang used to be the team leader of the production team of a food factory. Why can't he control people? Doesn't your billiards factory have more people than the food factory?"

The more Zhou Huiqin talked, the angrier she became, and she started to get angry without listening to Li Xiucheng's explanation.

Su Xiaomeng was also angry and shouted angrily: "That's enough! Mom, I didn't say anything. What are you fooling around with? Brother Xiucheng has already explained it so clearly. What else do you want, easy and profitable? You might as well let me Just stay at home and ask Brother Xiucheng to give him the money!"

Zhou Huiqin was shocked by Su Xiaomeng's sudden anger. Xu Qiaoling, who had been silent all night, spoke at this time.

"Xiaomeng, mom doesn't mean that either. You must have heard that the machinery factory will be restructured next year. The new boss will not be sure when he comes. Dad may not be able to keep his job by then. There are still so many people in the family. People are waiting to eat! Just relying on Jia Qiang’s current salary is not enough!”

Xu Qiaoling's strange words brought out the theme of the evening.

"As far as you can tell, our Su family still lacks your food, right?"

Su Dongguo's foot hurt when he was stepped on, so he threw away the bowl and chopsticks, yelled angrily, and went back to the room.

Zhou Huiqin also started to cry and scolded Xiaomeng for being heartless and neglecting her mother's family even though she was living a good life.

Su Xiaomeng was a little at a loss and didn't know how to persuade Zhou Huiqin.

The cries like a resentful woman made Li Xiucheng feel his head hurt.

"Mom, please stop crying now. I'll think about my brother's affairs and then consider changing my position."

In desperation, Li Xiucheng decided to make room for Su Jiaqiang, otherwise his mother-in-law would cause more trouble. "

When Zhou Huiqin heard this, she stopped crying and said, "That's what you said! Jia Qiang, did you hear that? Please speak quickly."

"Oh oh oh, I heard it, I heard it...Thank you Xiucheng."

Su Jiaqiang knows how much he is capable of. Now in the factory, he can be said to be the most useless.

Apart from his identity as Li Xiucheng's uncle, he is nothing. Everyone is better than him.

Moreover, these people are all convinced of Li Xiucheng, and they all praise Li Xiucheng when they mention him.

So now Su Jiaqiang naturally has a kind of reverence for Li Xiucheng.

"Actually, you can also let me go to work. Lei Lei still has his mother to take care of him. If my father is really laid off when I go to work, the family will still have two incomes and I won't be sad."

Seeing that Li Xiucheng agreed to change Su Jiaqiang's job, Xu Qiaoling took advantage of the situation and put forward her own ideas.

"It's okay, sister-in-law, you should stay at home with Lei Lei. I will find a way to improve my brother's salary. Even if dad is really laid off, I won't make your life difficult."
