Chapter 181: 181 Tongue Battle

"The second point is that we have already established a research department, specially selecting talents, led by our Vice Factory Director Yao, with the remaining funds dedicated to research and development."

The implication is that you don’t want a one-time deal, right?

There are no fools here. Initially, they also thought it was unreasonable, but some tried to take advantage, so they followed suit.

Now it’s all out in the open, and there’s no need for threats or inducements to make things ugly.

Zhu Peishan sat at the top, smiling, "Since that’s the case, let’s vote by a show of hands. All in favor, raise your hand."

Wei Kaiyun was the first to raise his hand. This was a slap in the face to Tian Mingyan.

Ultimately, it was unanimously approved. They were full of joy with the results.

"Alright, since everyone agreed, the model worker candidates for this year will be the six workers from the T City Textile Factory."

After waiting for a while, no one spoke up against it, and Jiang Xinyu was very pleased.

"I propose that in this year’s nationwide model worker selection, we include Mr. Qian and Director Jiang." Wei Kaiyun spoke calmly.

His words immediately drew attention from others. Zhu Peishan paused for a moment, "What’s everyone’s opinion?"

"Mr. Qian has gone to Russia twice to get raw materials, but what about Director Jiang?" Tian Mingyan asked loudly.

Jiang Xinyu lowered her head and smirked. Really?

Yao Shimin stood up, "Both times the raw material successfully crossed the border were thanks to Director Jiang negotiating with the guards over there. I’ve heard Mr. Qian say, at that time, they had hundreds of guns aimed at them, and Mr. Qian was even beaten. It was Director Jiang who managed to settle things with no losses at all.

Vice Factory Director Tian, do you now understand why? Can she qualify as a model worker or not?"

Everyone suddenly realized how adept Director Jiang was at handling foreign matters.

"Then let’s vote and approve it, too. Those in favor, raise your hands."

Once again, Wei Kaiyun was the first to raise his hand. Yao Shimin followed suit closely. All six leaders seated above also raised their hands, and finally, only Tian Mingyan hesitated before raising his hand, making it unanimous.

It was now eleven o’clock, and Zhu Peishan announced with a smile, "Alright, everyone coordinate privately on when to proceed with learning. Today’s meeting is successfully concluded, and we rarely get such opportunities, let’s head to the cafeteria to eat together."

Only after the leaders left did everyone gradually follow behind to leave.

Pan Xiulan, full of smiles, helped Jiang Xinyu tidy up the materials.

"Director Jiang, I’m so excited."

"Haha, what’s so exciting about this? Let’s go, you’ll have to follow Vice Factory Director Yao to study later."

"Haha, I really don’t want to go, but the leadership wants me to, so I can’t oppose."

"Yes, just go study honestly. Maybe you won’t need to be a secretary anymore, but can become a researcher."

"Really? But wouldn’t that be too exhausting?"

Jiang Xinyu left with a smile, followed by Pan Xiulan, giving the impression that she was Jiang Xinyu’s secretary, not Yao Shimin’s.

The cafeteria was ready long ago; having meat signifies a good meal.

Lu Weiqi approached Jiang Xinyu, "Director Jiang, you’re incredible."

"Secretary Lu, if Vice Factory Director Tian hears this, it wouldn’t be good."

"Haha, I’m just expressing my true feelings. Besides, that was work just now, now it’s personal time."

"Yes, we should separate public from private."

Yao Shimin ate with a few factory directors; he didn’t drink alcohol.

"Xiao Yao, your Director Jiang is truly impressive."

"Yes, she’s very impressive. I didn’t mention earlier, but last time Mr. Qian got pressed on the ground when coming back, and Director Jiang was speaking nicely in her broken Russian, nearly kneeling. She’s just a young girl. Your kids at home must be of the same age, right?

The first time coming back, Mr. Qian said Director Jiang had a fever on the train, discovered only the next day, completely unconscious due to being scared. Can we imagine the feeling of having hundreds of guns pointed at us?"

"Indeed, she’s very capable, especially with her words. I wonder what Director Jiang would say if Vice Factory Director Tian hadn’t said those things?"

Yao Shimin laughed, "I don’t know, but privately, I’m no match for Director Jiang."

Tian Mingyan sat beside Wei Kaiyun, "Director Wei, why?"

"Your performance today was very poor. Go back and reflect on it."

"What’s bad about it? I was just speaking the truth."

Wei Kaiyun lowered his head to eat and didn’t look up regardless of what Tian Mingyan said.

Yao Shimin finished eating and immediately came over, "Director Wei, I’ll go back to the textile factory with you. I need to call our Mr. Qian. I want to study here for a month. Is that okay, Director Wei?"

"No problem. I’ll give instructions once I’m back."

Yao Shimin then approached Pan Xiulan, "Secretary Pan, hurry up, we’re leaving with Director Wei.

Director Jiang, I’ll leave the follow-ups here to you. I’ll be here for a month."

"Sure, I’ll head back once things here are settled."

"Director Jiang, why are you in such a hurry?" Pan Xiulan asked.

"Going back to work, I’m a good comrade."

After the two finished eating, the three of them briefly informed the leaders and left. The two went to check out, while Lu Weiqi was already waiting in the car.

"Where’s Director Wei?"

"He rode back, let’s set off first."

Jiang Xinyu lay on the bed, thinking she should call Qian Jun. She went out to find a phone.

"Mr. Qian, this is Jiang Xinyu. Today’s meeting approved our request. Yes, Mr. Qian and I were proposed as candidates for nationwide model workers. Suggested by Director Wei. Yes, I understand. Vice Factory Director Yao will call you later; he wants to study for a month. I’ll return after things here are done. Alright, I’ll be careful."

After finishing the call, Jiang Xinyu felt relieved. Shortly after returning to the room, Wei Kaiyun came looking for her.

"Why didn’t you go back?"

"The vice factory director is here, and I’m staying with my wife."

"It’ll be awkward if someone comes later. By the way, why did you propose me and Mr. Qian as model workers?"

"It’s something you both deserve."

"Haha, even if I’m not selected, I’m satisfied. Thank you."

"Just a simple thank you? Honey, let’s go home."

Jiang Xinyu thought for a moment, "Alright, let’s go back. You return first and wait for me; I’ll come over later."

"Together."

"No, that wouldn’t be good."

Wei Kaiyun had no choice but to check out and leave. He went home to clean and heat the bed. The house hadn’t been heated for a long time and was surely cold. Fortunately, Jiang Xinyu could return two hours later.

Jiang Xinyu packed some food, put it in her bag, and took a hot shower. When her hair dried, she changed clothes and went out, informing the front desk she wouldn’t return tonight.
