Li Wenjun called Liu Hu's production team.
When Liu Hu heard that there was another project to be done, he was very happy: "I will come tomorrow."
Li Wenjun said: "It's still one yuan for an ordinary plasterer, and two yuan a day for you. Then you will live in a guest house and eat in the mining area canteen. You have to bring your own lunch boxes. Go and help me contact the plasterer who worked in the county No. 1 Middle School last time. Come here. No newcomers."
Liu Hu said: "Okay, okay."
Li Wenjun hung up the phone and saw Zhao Lin coming back dejected.
Li Wenjun's mouth twitched and asked: "What? The welding team refuses to take over the job?"
Zhao Lin nodded: "Yes, everyone else seemed to want to do it, but Master Zhao said he didn't have time. That's all if Master Zhao doesn't do it, and no one else is allowed to agree. Then, the others can only say no. It’s time.”
The welding class has very little work, just helping to repair the machine casing and so on. Where can I run out of time?
Zhao Xueliang must have thought that without him, Li Wenjun would not be able to find anyone who could weld, so he deliberately went against Li Wenjun like this.
"If you give him a chance, he won't take it. There's nothing you can do about it." Li Wenjun shook his head slightly, picked up the phone and dialed Director Lu of the auto repair shop, "Director Lu."
He now drives over from time to time to refuel and chat with Factory Manager Lu about cars.
Factory Director Lu saw that he knew so much about cars and liked chatting with him.
The two of them felt like they had met each other too late.
Factory Director Lu asked: "Hey, Comrade Li Wenjun comes less often recently. Do you want to come today?"
Li Wenjun said: "I've been a little busy lately. Come in a few days. I want to ask you today if you have any senior welders there."
Director Lu said: "Yes. There are four or five of them."
Li Wenjun said: "I want to borrow a master for a few days. It's best if he doesn't have a family yet and can live here with me for a few days. I will give him two yuan a day including food and accommodation. Starting today, I will give the welding master a day's salary." "
Factory Director Lu: "I am definitely willing to pay such a high salary. I only earn more than 40 yuan a month."
Li Wenjun said: "I borrowed people from you and delayed your work. I will also give you one yuan a day. Please help me distribute it to the comrades who have increased their tasks because of me."
Even if it's three yuan a day, Li Wenjun is still a good deal. A senior welder can weld one and a half boxes and pipes a day.
Director Lu: "Okay, I'll help you choose someone who is quick and agile. I'll have him come over later."
Li Wenjun said: "Don't be so anxious. I will pick him up at your place at around two o'clock in the afternoon. You will need to bring tools such as arc welding machines and electrodes. You will also need to pack a few changes of clothes, toothbrushes, towels, lunch boxes, etc. You will be done by then. , I will send him and the machine back."
Director Lu: "Okay, you are so thoughtful."

After Li Wenjun hung up the phone, Zhao Lin asked: "Found it?"
Li Wenjun smiled: "Welders are not a scarce job in the first place. As long as you are willing to pay, you can find anything."
Zhao Lin: "Master Qian has already started cutting according to the drawings."
Li Wenjun nodded: "Well, they are all the same size anyway, so just follow my drawing."
-----
After Li Wenjun made arrangements, he drove to find Tao Guangming.
Tao Guangming said that he was going to the city to prepare for the wedding in two days, and asked Li Wenjun to come over when he had time. He had something to say to Li Wenjun.
Li Wenjun knew that it must be a big deal, so he left everything to Zhao Lin, and he wanted to go there too.
Tao Guangming asked Li Wenjun to go to the office so that he could take a look at what Old Man Sun had been carving in the past few days.
It's autumn now, and the weather is getting cooler day by day.
The sun at ten o'clock in the morning is not as scorching as before.
The river water is much clearer and shallower, and the river beaches are exposed. The wind in the mountains is cool and very comfortable.
Now even without air conditioning, this Jeep is not uncomfortable to drive.
As expected, Tao Guangming was waiting for Li Wenjun in the office.
As soon as Li Wenjun sat down, he took out a few jade pendants, safety buckles, bracelets, etc. from the safe on a velvet tray and showed them to Li Wenjun.
Li Wenjun focused on the mutton-fat jade magnolia flower.
The color of this piece of mutton-fat jade is really beautiful. The authentic mutton-fat color is the same as the color of the magnolia flower, so the carving into the magnolia flower is so lifelike that you can smell the fragrance even if you get close.
"This is good." Li Wenjun nodded, "Give it to Leader Xie. Leader Xie will definitely like it." From what Tao Guangming said, Xie Chuyao should be a cold and arrogant person. This mutton-fat jade white magnolia pendant should suit her personality very well.
That violet bracelet and so on all depend on the jade material.
Unfortunately, this piece of jade has no flaws or cracks at all, so the finished product cannot be perfect.
Li Wenjun lamented that if this were done forty years later, this set would sell for at least one million.
I'm afraid it will be rare to find such a perfect piece of material in my life. If it wasn't to celebrate the life-long event of his best brother, he would definitely not be willing to give it to anyone else.
Li Wenjun solemnly said to Tao Guangming: "I am willing to give you this jade material so that you can give it to your most important person."
Tao Guangming grinned: "I know."
Li Wenjun added: "You should regard it as a family heirloom and never give it to others. Otherwise, it will be a pity for this piece of material."
Tao Guangming said: "I understand. Don't worry. As a layman, I can see how good he is. Old man Sun cut the piece of material and was surprised and didn't say anything for a long time. Then he said that he could handle the color and purity of water heads in his life. Such perfect material is gone without regrets. He said so, how could I give it to others. I plan to give the bracelet to my mother-in-law. Then give the Guanyin pendant and earrings to Ji Rushi."
Li Wenjun nodded: "Very good."
Tao Guangming carefully put away these jade articles, sat back, and turned back to his solemn face.
Li Wenjun knew that he was going to get down to business and became solemn.
Tao Guangming said: "Yesterday the province held a meeting to discuss the establishment of a base station pilot. Director Cai of the Municipal Electronic Components Factory attended as an expert and recommended you to be the person in charge of this base station pilot."
Li Wenjun nodded: "Well, what next." These were all what he expected.
Tao Guangming said: "Leader Tao voted for it, and with him, a total of three people voted for it. Then someone nominated Yuan Deshi, and he also got three votes for it. Yuan Deshi actually made a temporary company name in order to fight against you. 'Deshi Industrial' has the qualifications in the name of the county party committee, and the factory address is the plastic products factory in the county."
Li Wenjun nodded: "Okay."
Tao Guangming looked at him with squinted eyes: "You don't seem surprised at all. Did you have a plan already?"
Li Wenjun smiled: "That's right." Director Cai said that he would take the walkie-talkie to an expert from the province for him to take a look at. Maybe in the end that expert also voted for him.
Tao Guangming said: "Then why don't you ask who nominated Yuan Deshi?"
Li Wenjun's curiosity was aroused and he asked: "Who?"
