The canteen in the mining area stocked some food according to Li Wenyong's instructions, but it was not that sufficient. By December, it had already been eaten.
Those employees who usually cooked their own meals saw that food prices had increased so much. They thought they might as well go to the canteen to eat, so they simply stopped cooking and went to the canteen to eat three meals a day.
After all, the price of food sold by the canteen to workers in the mining area cannot be increased, otherwise the workers in the mining area will cause trouble.
Then the mining area can only pay for subsidies.
Li Wenyong is currently short of funds and does not want or have any more money to spend on this.
After much thought, Li Wenyong could only "reach out" to Li Wenjun again.
It's really uncomfortable to have to ask for "support" from your brother every now and then.
Now they are directly "begging for food". Although it is to "beg for food" for everyone in the mining area.
Li Changming also came to tell Li Wenjun: They are all his old colleagues. Now they are in trouble, and Li Wenjun can help if he can.
Many people have accumulated a lot of jealousy towards Li Wenjun during this period, and are holding their breath, waiting for Li Wenjun to express his stance. If Li Wenjun sells grain to the mine, no matter how much it costs per pound or whether it is expensive or not, they will go to the higher authorities to sue Li Wenjun for hoarding and reselling grain.
If Li Wenjun refuses to pay, they will still file a complaint with the Mining Bureau. In name, "Wenjun Industrial" is still a branch factory in the mining area. The branch factory is full of fat and the brain is full, and the mine is always hungry. Is there fairness in this world?
But Li Wenjun confiscated the money and did not refuse. He directly asked Li Wenyong to pull a cart of grain away.
In his own words: "When I was a child, I often went to other people's houses to get food, and secretly picked tomatoes in other people's gardens. This little food is what I give back to everyone."
Many people in the mine felt a little ashamed after learning about this incident.
When there are no difficulties, he is jealous of Li Wenjun and often speaks ill of him behind his back; when there are difficulties, he looks forward to Li Wenjun's help. Sometimes I really feel like I am nothing.
The rice is solved, but the dishes are more troublesome.
It's a difficult problem for the mining area, but it's easy for Li Wenjun.
He has his own logistics company and ships to all parts of the country every day. Instead of picking up the goods when we come back, we can just bring back a cart of local vegetables.
Today it’s a cartload of Chinese cabbage and green onions from Shandong Province, and tomorrow it’s a cartload of cabbage and beans from Qiong Province.
Therefore, there is never any shortage of vegetables in the factory.
This dish is not suitable for mine workers.
He is not a Bodhisattva. He has given grain to Li Wenyong and Li Changming in the name of Li Wenyong, but he will not subsidize the mine without limit.
After a long meal of winter melons, pumpkins, radishes, etc., the mine employees inevitably complained. They all complained to the canteen and the logistics department: "Can't we find a way to get some vegetables?" In fact, it was a hint to them to ask Li Wenjun for food.
The canteen and logistics staff were already very annoyed. Seeing that these people were still picky after eating, they became even more angry. They directly replied: "If you don't like it, you can go home and make it yourself."
Li Wenyong heard these complaints, but pretended not to hear them.
Li Wenjun's ability to provide food for free is already the limit.
Besides, Li Wenjun was his biological brother, so he couldn't always steal Li Wenjun's flesh and give it to others.
In any case, it is not his responsibility to ensure that every family is well-fed. He has done his duty, and he has no regrets.
And human greed is endless. Even if he got the food, they would have something else to say.
Tang Zhaonian was quite amused. When Ji Qingyan said that there was a drought here, thanks to Li Wenjun sending vegetables to her every now and then, and the mine employees had received free grain from Li Wenjun and complained a lot, so he immediately had a cart of vegetables from Guangzhou Province pulled over. The fruits were sent directly to Li Wen Military Factory via the North-South Artery in the port city.
In the winter of this drought year, the car full of fragrant pineapples and bananas, sweet and juicy sugarcane grapefruits, and all kinds of green vegetables that are so tender that they drip with water is a naked display of wealth.
Tang Zhaonian also called Li Wenjun specifically to tell him: These fruits and vegetables are used to comfort the workers who help him build cars and pagers, and can only be eaten by factory employees and Li Wenjun's relatives and friends. No one else can touch it.
He obviously did this deliberately to take revenge on those who gossiped about Ji Qingyan in the mine before.
Even Tao Guangming sighed: "When it comes to stabbing people's hearts with a knife, no one can be as ruthless as Tang Zhaonian."
-----
When Tang Zhaonian called Li Wenjun to talk about the fruit, he actually gloated about another thing: "One of the twelve motorcycle factories that copied you was run by Ji Qingtao and Ji Qinghong."
In fact, Li Wenjun could roughly guess it without Tang Zhaonian's explanation. Not only the Ji family, but also the Tao family and the Kong family may have participated in the construction and production of one or two of the factories.
In their eyes, the shopping mall is either a friend or an enemy. If Li Wenjun does not cooperate and does not share profits, he is an enemy. Whether the three companies cooperate or go their own way, they must find a way to defeat him!
This behavior can be said to be strategic. After all, no one can get ahead unless Li Wenjun is defeated.
But it can also be said to be a bit angry and stupid: why must we compete with Li Wenjun in the field he is good at? Can't we use our brains to make money in other industries?
Doing this is like throwing a dart hard to hit Li Wenjun, but the dart will fly back every time and hit them accurately.
It’s happened so many times and I still don’t have a long memory.
Li Wenjun sighed for them.
Tang Zhaonian smiled happily and said: "You street boy, you have made things miserable for me this time. It is said that Ji Qingtao and the others sold ten cars at first. They thought it was worth doing, so they made two hundred cars at once, and then they It's stuck in the warehouse. Tens of thousands of dollars are gone again."
Li Wenjun said: "It's not impossible, it's still possible to sell slowly."
Tang Zhaonian: "Your second enlarged version of the motorcycle can be bought in Hong Kong City. If you don't want to sell it, you can also buy one for me to play with." Before that, he asked Li Wenjun to sell the first motorcycle When he got it to Gangcheng, Li Wenjun said there was no rush. This version was relatively crude and not suitable for the market of Gangcheng.
I heard that Li Wenjun and Liu Dongsheng have recently developed an enlarged version with more power and a more beautiful appearance.
Tang Zhaonian felt a little itchy.
Li Wenjun said: "The control performance of the enlarged version can basically meet the requirements. It should be no problem to sell it in Hong Kong City for 2,800 yuan."
Tang Zhaonian rubbed his hands: "Okay, okay, go through the formalities immediately. Try to put the motorcycle in the showroom before the year. What color is it?"
Li Wenjun laughed: "Motorcycles are mainly black and red, with blue, black and silver at the most. If you want to make brighter colors like yellow, green and orange, it will be a bit weird."
Tang Zhaonian: "Okay, let's sell it first and then talk about it."
Li Wenjun: "When will you come back to see Tailor Ji? She's very pregnant. She's about to give birth." He basically comes to the mining area twice a month, but he hasn't come in the past month.
Li Wenjun couldn't ask him what he was doing. After all, the environment in Hong Kong City is more complicated. Tang Zhaonian has a lot of grudges. He is always on guard against others stabbing him and thinking about how to stab him back.
Tang Zhaonian answered vaguely: "Come back, come back, soon. I'll be back as soon as possible."
Li Wenjun frowned secretly: This guy must be hiding something from them by being so pushy.
