A week later, as Zhang Danian expected, although the proposal to run a canteen for external contracting was opposed by many people at the factory party committee meeting, the majority of those who agreed to it were finally passed smoothly. Among them, Xiang Zhonghai, the secretary of the factory party committee, also raised his hand to vote for it!

At the meeting, Xiang Zhonghai handed over the work related to the canteen's external contracting to the Reform Office. After the meeting, Liu Weiguang, chairman of the factory union, found Xiang Zhonghai and suggested to him that the factory union also hoped to participate and be responsible for the related work related to the canteen's external contracting together with the Reform Office.

At the meeting, Liu Weiguang tried his best to oppose the ban on the factory and canteen and contract it out to the outside world. At this moment, he suddenly asked to participate. This request seemed abrupt and contradictory, but Xiang Zhonghai quickly felt relieved.

He understood that Liu Weiguang was second-best. Since the factory could not stop the canteen from banning the welfare of the canteen, he would seek more benefits for the factory employees in the canteen contract.

He did this, of course, for the better development of their factory union's work. But it also shows that Liu Weiguang, the chairman of the factory union, seeks benefits for the majority of employees and is competent and qualified!

Afterwards, Xiang Zhonghai agreed to his request and called Guan Liangyi and Qin Weiming to his office with an inside phone to explain the matter.

After some discussion, the tone was set for the canteen's external contracting work. The reform office was led by the factory union and assisted by the factory trade union. Qin Weiming, the executive deputy director of the reform office, was specifically responsible for the entire canteen's external contracting work.

Finally, Xiang Zhonghai hopes that they can speed up the progress. Now it is only about twenty days before the Spring Festival. He hopes to determine the candidate for the canteen contractor before the holiday. As soon as the Spring Festival holiday is over, the factory will start working, and the canteen in the factory will be operated by the contractor, which will be a new year and a new atmosphere!

This time is a bit tight.

Qin Weiming was a little troubled. He promoted Xiang Zhonghai to one hand. He understood Xiang Zhonghai's character, said hope and tried his best. It seemed to be in a negotiated tone, but in fact this is an order, and it must be done!

Then, he nodded, guaranteed to complete the task, and agreed.

There is no way, the next work can only be done by letting colleagues from the Reform Office work overtime.

After returning to the Reform Office, he immediately called Zhang Danian to the office...

...

...

Two days later, Thursday.

Lu Yuan got home from get off work early. Before his father came back, he got into the kitchen as soon as possible, and transformed a stack of bound a4 paper from his bag and handed it to Wu Xiuqin.

This is the final draft of the contract plan he had promised Wu Xiuqin and Wang Danaodai to draft for them, in triplicate. In addition to the quotation, this contract plan also talks about the advantages of their contracting canteens and provides a detailed explanation of the future canteen operations, so that the factory can have a detailed understanding of the future canteen operations.

Lu Yuan combined the above ideas with Wu Xiuqin, Wang Danao and his own ideas.

Not only that, he also added some preferential measures for the meals of employees in the factory in the plan. He believed that these are what the factory is willing to see and what the factory hopes to see.

Before getting off work today, he printed out the contract plan in the sales department and took it home directly.

In the kitchen.

Wu Xiuqin wiped her wet hands on her apron several times, then took over a thick stack of plans and said happily: "Good son, mom hasn't loved you in vain!"

"Mom, when I go to work tomorrow, you and Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang will take this contract plan to the reform office and find Director Qin Weiming and Qin. He is now in charge of external contracting of the canteen. Zhang Dainian told me that Wu Na and the others will hand over the canteen contracting plan at noon today." Lu Yuan reminded.

"Are they so fast?" Wu Xiuqin was anxious when she heard this, "Then I, your uncle and aunt Wang, have to hold on tight too."

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "If you hold on, you have to go to work tomorrow. Mom, put away the plan first and let my dad see it. You two are going to have a quarrel again."

"Just make a fuss, he has only a little chance!"

Although Wu Xiuqin said this, she carefully hid the thick stack of plans on tiptoe in the cabinet.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan laughed in silence.

Wu Xiuqin drove Lu Yuan out of the kitchen and asked him to go back to the house to play with the computer. She cooked two more dishes and then she could start the meal.

Soon, the food was ready, and Wu Xiuqin called Lu Yuan out for dinner.

However, Lu Yuan found that his father Lu Qingshan had not come back yet.

As usual, my dad would get home after get off work ten minutes earlier than me. Because the factory has been reducing production this year, the work in the production workshop has been much more idle than before, and there is no overtime work.

Today, Lu Qingshan was not only more than half an hour late, but also hadn't arrived home.

Lu Yuan looked at Wu Xiuqin coming out of the kitchen with soup in both hands and asked, "Mom, why is my dad so late today?"

"Um?"

Wu Xiuqin put the soup on the table, looked back at the wall clock, and said suspiciously: "It's really haha. It's almost half past six, why haven't you been home yet?"

Lu Yuan felt sorry for his father silently. He really had no presence at home. He was almost eating, but his mother realized that you had not come back.

No matter how suspicious it was, Wu Xiuqin still gave Lu Yuan a meal and said, "I guess I'm going to drink with the drinkers in his workshop after work. Don't worry about your father, let's eat by myself."

Lu Yuan thought about it and it was possible. However, in the past, my dad would call home if he didn't come back for dinner.

Then I thought about it that he and his mother have been fighting in an "internal battle" recently, so it's normal not to call.

"Okay, let's have a meal, don't wait." Wu Xiuqin said.

...

When Lu Qingshan returned home, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

At this moment, Wu Xiuqin had already fallen asleep, after all, she had to get up at three or four in the morning.

Lu Yuan had just finished taking a shower and was still watching TV in the living room.

"Dad, you are back." Lu Yuan stood up.

Lu Qingshan did not answer, his face flushed and he sat on the sofa. He leaned hard, and the smell of alcohol in his body dissipated.

Lu Qingshan leaned his head on the sofa, squinted his eyes, said nothing, and gasped.

Lu Yuan was secretly shocked. He drank a lot of wine tonight! It took a long time since I saw my dad drink it like this!

He silently poured a cup of hot tea for Lu Qingshan and gently placed it on the tea table so that his father could get up and drink tea and relieve wine later.

Just as he was about to go back to the house, he saw Lu Qingshan slightly open his eyes, rub his face with both hands a few times, and exclaimed: "Son, let's talk to dad for a few words."

"Um."

Lu Yuan nodded, sat down slowly, and said, "Dad, I know you have had a quarrel with my mother recently and feel unhappy. But you can't drink so much alcohol, it's not good for your health!"

"laugh……"

Lu Qingshan chuckled and said, "Who has drunk the wine? Your father, I feel happy today, and I drink this wine happily!"

hold head high?

Lu Yuan was stunned. Didn’t my dad drink outside because he was so angry with his mother?

Lu Qingshan sat upright slightly, looked at Lu Yuan, and smiled and said, "You kid is the same as your mother. I don't want to afford it, right? I think I have been a worker in San Cotton Factory for the rest of my life and have no big prospects, right?"

"Dad, how can my son look down on me?"

Lu Yuan waved his hands repeatedly and quickly explained: "What's wrong with being a worker? Didn't I also go to work in a cotton mill? I have eaten the rice of a worker's children since I was a child, and I don't feel embarrassed. Dad, if you drink too much, let's not speak anger."

"I didn't drink too much! Didn't your mother look down on me? Didn't she say that I, Lu Qingshan, have no future?"

Lu Qingshan showed a smug smile on his face and said proudly: "Hmph, I did something awesome today. From now on, seeing her Wu Xiuqin, do you dare to open your mouth and shut up and say that I am useless and incompetent!"
