Ignoring Director Li's gaze, Liu Xiangdong looked back at everyone, "Everyone, make the preparations first. Wait, we will conduct the experiment in two days!"

Everyone nodded silently after hearing this.

Without Team Leader Liu here, they had no choice but to do this.

"Team leader, I'll go with you!"

Jiang Ningning gritted his teeth and followed Liu Xiangdong to the workshop.

"Ning Ning, you weren't this bad-tempered before! What's going on today? Ahem, what's going on?"

On the way to the workshop, Liu Xiangdong looked at Jiang Ningning who lowered his head and said nothing and asked.

Jiang Ningning's heart trembled and she didn't know whether she should say it or not.

The last time she went back to Sijiu City, she told about the situation here, but she didn't expect that Yang Xiaotao from Sijiu City actually sent someone here, let alone that this matter actually reached the ears of Director Li.

As a result, she always felt that she had done something wrong.

If I hadn't told Yang Xiaotao, what happened today wouldn't have happened.

I hesitated in my heart, not knowing whether I should say it or not.

"Ning Ning, are you worried?"

When Liu Xiangdong saw Jiang Ningning who was different from usual, he became even more sure that something was wrong.

When Jiang Ningning heard the question, she simply gritted her teeth. The situation was already like this, and there was no point in hiding it.

"Team leader, this time, when I returned to Sijiu City, I told someone about the fact that I joined you and we were studying night vision devices."

"A person? Who?"

Liu Xiangdong stopped and his tone was serious.

After all, this research was reported to superiors. Although no results have been produced in the past few years, it does not mean that just anyone can know about it!

Jiang Ningning lowered his head, "That person is the chief designer of the machinery factory, Yang Xiaotao!"

Hearing this, Liu Xiangdong frowned.

He still knew about Yang Xiaotao.

Of course, most of them are from newspapers.

"Stop talking nonsense in the future!"

Liu Xiangdong glanced at Jiang Ningning, softened his tone, warned him, and then walked to the workshop.

Jiang Ningning gritted his teeth after hearing this and followed up, "Team leader, that Yang, Mr. Yang said that they need a night vision device installed on the tank!"

"He also told me that they really need help from such talents."

"Team leader, you have now seen that here, Li Cuntian is clearly trying to embarrass us and prevent us from doing research again and again."

"You went to the workshop today, and you don't know what is waiting for you after you finish your work."

"Also, more than half of the research funds given to us last time were directly deducted. Xiao Zhou and the others haven't received their wages yet. I..."

Jiang Ningning was still talking quickly, but she didn't realize that Liu Xiangdong paused when he mentioned the tank night vision device, and then quickly moved forward.

When talking about Xiao Zhou, Liu Xiangdong's eyes had a hint of excitement.

Jiang Ningning's voice faintly came to my ears, "Team leader, there are good equipment in Sijiu City. You can do research even if you go there, and..."

Entering the workshop, Liu Xiangdong walked to the workshop director.

"Team Leader Liu is here!"

The workshop director is an old worker in his fifties. He has worked here for half his life. He has a clear view of the people and things in the factory and understands in his heart.

It is precisely because of this clarity that I don’t want to get involved.

After all, whoever comes has to work and eat, right?

So much so that now he, the director, has become his deputy when it comes to matters in the workshop. Director Li's opinion is generally listened to on all matters big and small.

Especially when I was doing this kind of thing, I was not happy in my heart. A group of people who didn't know anything came here to help me, but it didn't show on my face.

Just seeing Liu Xiangdong like this and still coming to work made me feel guilty.

"Well! Here it comes!"

Liu Xiangdong replied listlessly and in a daze.

After saying that, he walked aside, picked up his usual hammer, and prepared to work.

Behind him, Jiang Ningning also put on her gloves and walked toward the crowd without saying a word.

The workshop director sighed and then came to Liu Xiangdong's side.

"Team Leader Liu!"

Liu Xiangdong looked up and saw the cigarette handed over by the workshop director. Liu Xiangdong shook his head to indicate that his throat was not good.

Seeing this, the director took back the cigarette and put it in his pocket.

"Team Leader Liu, don't be unhappy when I say this. I know you are capable, and we can't even find anyone else here."

"But in my opinion, you are really not as good as a 17 or 18-year-old boy driving screws here."

"Why, because this is not your job at all!"

Liu Xiangdong straightened up and was about to speak, but was interrupted by the director's hand.

"Don't talk about revolutionary principles. If I say it, I will definitely shout it louder than you!"

"As a person like me, I told you as a factory master that you can do as much work as you have the ability. If you are not good at it, don't be greedy. If you have the ability, make progress."

"In my eyes, you are a capable person. You have to do what you should do, so that you can be worthy of what you have learned."

"To put it mildly, this is your own responsibility!"

"But if you think about it in a big way, you can be worthy of the country's investment in you."

"Otherwise, if someone like you is just driving screws and holding a hammer here, what's not a waste?"

The director seemed to want to finish what he had to say, and did not give Liu Xiangdong a chance to speak.

But after listening for a while, Liu Xiangdong didn't know what to say.

He seemed to understand what the director said.

"I'm a nagging person as I get older, so it's best if you listen to me!"

"There is such a good thing in Sijiucheng, so don't hold it back."

"Listen to my advice. If someone gives you a road, you have to walk. If you don't walk, how will you know whether it is a big road or a small road?"

He turned around and left. He had said enough today. It would not be nice if Director Li found out.

Liu Xiangdong looked down at the hammer in his hand, and then looked up at the sky outside the window. The sky was blue and white clouds were flawless.

But it feels like being constrained by a small window.

The originally firm thoughts in my mind began to waver at this moment, "Leave? Or, stay?"

…

"Director, that Jiang Ningning is so ignorant of praise. He is just relying on the prestige of his relatives."

Wang Ming followed Director Li and walked out, talking as he walked.

Of course, I still have some intentions for Jiang Ningning in my heart.

Even though Jiang Ningning seems to be a little transparent on weekdays, her appearance and figure are not bad in this factory. In addition, her speech is soft and soft, which makes the man feel protective.

Snapped

Just as Wang Ming was thinking about how to rectify Jiang Ningning, and then provide care and comfort at the appropriate time, so...

A slap in the face directly knocked him down.

Before he could speak, he saw Director Li's wolf-like eyes.

"Lord, director!"

Director Li looked at Wang Ming, who was covering his face and looking aggrieved, and asked word for word, "Is what Jiang Ningning said true?"

Wang Ming naturally knew what Director Li was referring to, and his face immediately panicked.

Seeing this, Director Li snorted coldly.

"Letting you join the investigation committee is not for you to act as a boss, nor is it a reason for you to be picky!"

"But what about you? Not only did you not play a leading role in supervision, but you also ruined the reputation of the investigation committee!"

Wang Ming breathed quickly and hurriedly explained, "Director, don't listen to her nonsense. I just went to understand the situation with my comrades. I didn't act arrogant or picky..."

"okay!"

Director Li refused to listen to his howl and interrupted with a wave of his hand, "Starting today, Wang Ming is officially dismissed from the investigation meeting."

"no, do not want…"
