Dismissal and Promotion

After arranging the bed for Mao Hainiang, Fang Fei helped to contact the nurse. After all, Li Jianguo was a man, so it was inconvenient to take care of him, and the fur boy was young, so he hired an aunt from the hospital housekeeping company. The price was not expensive, six hundred a month.

When Mao Hainiang found out, she jumped out of the bed in fright: "I can't stop, I can't stop, six hundred a month, my heavenly grandpa, catch up with the country's harvest for a year."

The urban people in the same ward showed disdainful eyes, and Li Jianguo said: "Sister-in-law, it is important to see a doctor. If you want to save money, you should recover and leave the hospital as soon as possible. This is the right way to save money."

The sister-in-law had no choice but to compromise, her eyes were red: "Jianguo, thank you for your hard work." " Sister-in-law, I will definitely do what I promised my elder brother. My elder brother sacrificed himself to protect me. I will take care of you." You two are forever." Li Jianguo shouted loudly, his sister-in-law wept secretly, and the hairy boy wiped his tears with his dirty sleeve.

There was a pleasant sound of spring water, and Fang Fei took out her mobile phone and pressed the answer button: "What, a severely burned patient came up ahead, okay, I'll go back right away."

After hanging up the phone, Fang Fei said to Liu Ziguang: "I'm going back to the emergency room first, remember your words, treat me to dinner."

Liu Ziguang replied with a smile: "Just tonight, see you soon!"

"Okay, see you there!" Fang Fei smiled all the way into the elevator.

...

"Brother, come and talk." Li Jianguo and Liu Ziguang came to the corridor next to the window one after the other. Smoking is strictly prohibited in the hospital, and neither of them took out their cigarettes.

"I heard that the stall was smashed by someone. Don't worry about it. Give me a week and I will definitely give you an explanation." Li Jianguo vowed, with angry flames in his eyes.

"Don't make a move. Don't argue with me about this matter. You just need to find out who did it." Liu Ziguang said with a sinister smile.

"Okay, wait for my call."

...

After the hospital affairs were over, Liu Ziguang asked Ma Chao to drive him back to Zhicheng Garden first. The doggy senior manager actually fired those brothers who were close to him while he was away. It would be no wonder if he didn't beat him to death this time.

At the gate of the community, Liu Ziguang got out of the car and slammed the door: "Ma Chao, you go back first, and I will call you if there is anything to do."

Ya Ge screamed strangely, turned a corner and ran away, Liu Ziguang walked to the gate, and saw that the gate post had indeed changed, and a few old colleagues in their 40s and 50s who were originally assigned to the garage replaced the original brothers.

Liu Ziguang frowned secretly, the door post was an important position, and it had to be equipped with elite troops, this senior manager was really confused, and there was Captain Bai, an idiot, who didn't care about anything in order to eradicate dissidents.

The two uncles on the doorpost were Lao Zhang and Lao Wang who sent Dad to the hospital. When they saw Liu Ziguang coming, they greeted, "Xiao Liu is here."

"Well, Uncle Zhang, Uncle Wang, they are on duty." Liu Ziguang politely agreed, and took out Zhonghua to smoke for them.

During the shift, the two dared not smoke and held cigarettes to their ears. Lao Zhang said mysteriously, "Xiao Liu, your father just came and was talking to Mr. Gao in the manager's office."

"What is my dad doing here?" Liu Ziguang wondered.

"Don't you know, you were also fired, saying that you have a criminal record, and the head office has regulations, such people cannot be hired."

Liu Ziguang understood as soon as he heard it, he was furious, he thought to himself that you are a naughty senior manager, you have a lot of courage, you have bullied me, if the tiger doesn't show his power, you really think I am hello kitty!

Rushing to the corridor of the property office building, I heard my father's humble and polite voice in the manager's office: "Mr. Gao, Captain Bai, this is a misunderstanding. My son is innocent. This job is really important to our family. Please, Mr. Gao, please raise your hand and help, come on, Mr. Gao, Captain Bai, smoke."

Then I heard Manager Gao's haughty voice: "Old Liu, you have worked in our company for several years, ah, the rules and regulations are also very clear, the system at the head office is very stuck, you also know it, ah, Well, you also know Mr. Li's temper, ah, do you think she will allow a person with a criminal record to stay in our company? Right, let's talk about the facts and make sense."

Then there was Captain Bai's teasing voice: "Old Liu, as for your son, don't you know yourself? He is angry, fights, steals chickens and dogs, let alone our company, even if he goes outside to sweep the street, he dare not take it." ah."

The door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Liu Ziguang walked in with a calm expression. He saw his father standing awkwardly holding a box of fifteen yuan mid-range cigarettes in his hand . The manager was half lying in the spacious boss chair, while Captain Bai sat on the sofa next to him, crossing his legs triumphantly.

Seeing Liu Ziguang coming in, Manager Gao immediately sat up straight, Captain Bai stopped shaking his toes, and his father turned his face, his face full of anger: "Xiao Guang, come quickly and compensate Mr. Gao!"

Liu Ziguang said: "Dad, calm down and don't worry, I will have a serious talk with Mr. Gao. By the way, when I first came in, Uncle Zhang at the door said he had something to do with you."

Dad sighed: "Talk to the leader if you have something to do. Mr. Gao and Captain Bai are nice people who take good care of our family. You guys talk first, and I'll go out."

After saying that, he apologized to the two leaders, and went out, and carefully helped to close the door before leaving.

The atmosphere in the office was dignified, and there was no sound. When the footsteps in the corridor disappeared, Liu Ziguang turned around and pressed the door latch. He lifted his coat expressionlessly, pulled out an ax from his back belt, and walked towards Mr. Gao step by step.

"You, you, what are you going to do?" Mr. Gao was terrified, and he shrank back, but there was a wall behind him, and there was no way to retreat. Captain Bai's little face was pale with fright, and he quietly wanted to slip away.

Liu Ziguang turned his head and yelled, "Stop!" Captain Bai's legs went limp in fright, and he sat on the ground on the spot.

"If I don't beat you out of green shit today, it's even if you haven't eaten leeks!" Liu Ziguang swung his ax viciously, and the sharp hatchet slashed deeply into Manager Gao's boss's desk, causing him to slip away. The chair slides down.

Just as Liu Ziguang walked over with murderous intent, suddenly there was a knock on the door of the office, and it was his father's voice: "Why is the door locked, Xiaoguang, are you inside, Mr. Gao, Team Bai, there is mail."

At this moment, Mr. Gao and Captain Bai were already kneeling in front of Liu Ziguang. Hearing Uncle Liu's voice, it was as if they had grabbed straws for life, but they didn't dare to speak nonsense . Looking at Liu Ziguang with pleading eyes.

"Bah, you're lucky!" Liu Ziguang turned around viciously, and sat down on the sofa next to him. Only then did Captain Bai dare to get up and walk to the door, and opened the door of the office.

Dad and Lao Zhang came in together, and Lao Zhang still held a courier in his hand: "Mr. Gao, the courier from the head office." The property company of Zhicheng Garden belongs to a large group, and the property is just one of them. It's just a part, the group company is very old-fashioned, and important documents are sent through a combination of physical mail and email, so this courier is a formal document issued by the above.

Generally speaking, this kind of formal official document involves the appointment and dismissal of personnel. Just yesterday, Mr. Gao sent an email to the human resources department of the head office, saying that an employee in the headquarters has been detained by the public security organ for suspected crimes, and the labor contract needs to be terminated because Liu Ziguang was a foreman anyway, and the Human Resources Department of the headquarters had a registration, so Manager Gao had to go through this procedure.

I didn't expect the human resources department to be so efficient, and I replied today, and it was in the form of a formal official document, the company's red-headed document, which made Manager Gao happy.

As for Liu Ziguang, the God of Plague, he wished he could send him away immediately, even if he was beaten, it doesn't matter. Now is the right time to show him the official documents from the headquarters, and he can prove that it is none of his business. If he has the ability, he can go to the human resources department of the headquarters Bar.

Manager Gao took the express envelope, sighed, and said, "Old Liu, Xiao Liu, it's not that I don't want to help you. In fact, this matter has gone to the sky. It is said that even President Li of the group knows about it. I can't protect you even if I want to." Stop, I'm really sorry, Xiao Liu, if hitting me can relieve your anger, you can hit me twice."

As soon as he heard this, his father got angry at Liu Ziguang: "Why are you like this, kid! You can't stop fighting and killing, what are you doing!"

Liu Ziguang shrugged his shoulders, looking very indifferent.

"Little Bai, open it for them to read." Manager Gao sighed regretfully, and handed the courier envelope to Captain Bai.

Captain Bai understood, took the envelope and tore open the seal, took out a piece of crisp white hard paper, coughed and read: "The job appointment letter, appointing Liu Ziguang, the foreman of the security department of the Phase I Branch of Zhicheng Property Company, as...for... Captain Bai was tongue-tied and couldn't read any more.

When Manager Gao heard something was wrong, he grabbed the piece of paper and took a look. It was impressively written on it that Liu Ziguang was appointed as the head of the security department! The department seal of the human resources department, the official seal of the property company, and the autographs of the minister and the boss are stamped on the back.

For a while, the senior manager felt dizzy, was he dreaming, the head of the security department, he was only half a level lower than himself, and if he entered this level, he was a full-time employee of the company, with a full set of pension insurance, medical insurance, housing The provident fund and so on, the monthly salary of ordinary security guards has also risen directly from 800 to 1200 to 2000, plus various subsidies, overtime pay, bonuses, etc., there are more than 3000 yuan, which is equivalent to a chicken dog ascending to heaven!

In fact, Captain Bai was the one who broke down even more. He has coveted the position of minister for two full years, but he has not been righted, so he can only temporarily assume the responsibility of the department as the captain . , little rascal, Liu Ziguang who had only been on the job for a few days turned into his immediate boss, and for a while, Captain Bai wanted to die.

It's useless to say anything, this is a regular company red-headed document, there is absolutely no possibility of fraud, Manager Gao is a manager after all, he has a strong ability to adapt to changes, he handed the official document to Liu Ziguang, and then grabbed his right hand with enthusiasm Shaking up: "Congratulations, Xiao Liu!"

Liu Ziguang was also a little stunned, holding the official document and examining it carefully. Manager Gao over there went to shake hands with his father again: "Old Liu, you have raised a good son. In fact, I had a phone call with the headquarters last night to try to protect your son. At that time they did not agree. I They dropped the phone, I didn't expect them to finally turn this corner today, alas, no matter what, do it well, and you must be worthy of the leadership's trust."

Dad was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes, he grabbed Manager Gao's hand and said, "Thank you, Manager Gao."

"It's easy to say, easy to say." Manager Gao smiled reservedly, and took King Furong from his desk: " Old Liu, take one!"

Here, Liu Ziguang has read the official documents and made clear his salary and responsibilities. He grinned grinningly, and said to Captain Bai, "Old Bai, Feng Shui turns, you have to listen to me from now on."

Captain Bai smiled uglier than crying: "Minister Liu, please take care of me in the future."

...

Coming out of the office, Liu Ziguang complained: "Dad, you still don't know who Gao is, he is responsible for this matter."

My dad sighed and said, "Your dad and I have been working in the factory for decades, and I haven't seen anyone, so you can't see the tricks, but people, sometimes you have to pretend to be stupid to survive. "

Liu Ziguang was speechless, and his father said again: "Maybe the head office knew about your deeds, and that's why they promoted you. This is a good thing, and I have to have a drink tonight."

Liu Ziguang said: "Dad, I have an appointment tonight."

"Which one? Is it Nurse Fang?"

"Um."

"Okay, okay, this is even better. Your mother and I will celebrate by ourselves. You play slowly. Remember not to be too late. When you send people home, you have to deliver them to your doorstep."
