Chapter 580 Incognito Visit
Outside the boundary marker, two high-level Domain Venerables were getting impatient.

"How long has the heir apparent been inside?"

"Will canine teeth actually work?"

Should we go in and take a look?

"The boundary marker is locked, so we can't get in."

The black stone tablet slowly rotated in the void, and a barely perceptible silver rune lit up rapidly, only to return to thick darkness within a fraction of a second.

This glimmer of light did not escape the eyes of the two high-level Domain Lords.

Two orbs of light suddenly lit up, attempting to rush into the node world, but abruptly stopped when they approached the boundary marker's critical point.

The message conveyed in the vacuum carried a hint of tension and solemnity.

"It's the key! The key is loose!"

"We must report to the Kingdom of God!"

……

The entire Liaoyang province was watching Lin Xiaohe. What would this new leader do?

Is he using his own money to win people over? Or is he just going along with the corrupt practices? Or is it just a new broom sweeping clean?
To everyone's surprise, she did nothing but focus on the Changhong factory, as if her temporary posting was just that—a temporary posting.

"Reports are just a string of numbers; they can reflect problems, but only a part of them. To see the real situation, we need to go and see for ourselves."

Lin Xiaohe rented a taxi and spent a week visiting several key companies.

Chen Guang sat in the passenger seat, looking down at the log sheet. There were several hundred enterprises under the district's jurisdiction; if he were to visit every single one, it would take a year.

Lin Xiaohe noticed a black Honda following behind, her eyes darkening slightly as she reminded the security guard, "Shake it off."

"it is good!"

The taxi suddenly accelerated, weaving left and right through the traffic, finally shaking off that little tagalong.

Chen Guang's head was throbbing from looking at the reports, and this sudden acceleration almost made him throw up his breakfast. It took him a while to calm down and suppress the nausea.

He glanced at Lin Xiaohe in the back seat and couldn't help but gasp. They had both stayed up for several nights in a row, but Lin Xiaohe's cheeks were rosy and her complexion was incredibly good.

It seemed that all the hard work and toil she had endured during this period was insignificant to her.

That's right, power is a great tonic!

Chen Guang snapped out of his thoughts and reported: "Leader, as you instructed, we first eliminated the profitable district-owned enterprises, then eliminated those that were beyond saving, and categorized the remaining enterprises according to their asset size, number of employees, and industry. Here is the enterprise list."

After this screening, there are actually several hundred companies left, all of which are half-dead, wanting to die but not quite dead, still clinging to life, as if they can be saved.

Based on a complex scoring and weighting system, 37 companies were selected as the top performers and deserve close attention.

Lin Xiaohe quickly flipped through the documents: "Let's go to the picture tube factory in the provincial capital."

If the reports are not falsified, the factory's problems are very easy to solve. The equipment in the factory is still 70% intact, and the technical backbone team is basically complete. It's just that production has stopped because there are no orders and no funds.

These two difficulties are nothing to Changhong Factory.

The taxi turned around and headed towards the cathode ray tube factory.

The factory is located about 300 meters east of the intersection of North Second Road and Baogong Street. The factory is adjacent to a transformer factory on the north side, a railway siding on the south side, a rubber factory on the west side, and a workers' dormitory area on the east side.

The taxi turned a corner on North Second Road, and Lin Xiaohe could see the two iconic water tower pillars at the factory gate in the distance.

"arrive."

This street should have been bustling with activity, but there were few pedestrians, and even the warm sun couldn't warm the desolation of the area. A taxi was parked near the bus stop, the starting point for bus route 15.

The bus driver, who was waiting for passengers, was bored. He rolled down the window of the driver's cab, stuck his head out, and saw several young people with good looks getting out of taxis.

The young girl in the very center, in particular, had a very impressive air about her.

The bus driver shouted, "Hey girls, what are you doing in this dump? Looking for someone?"

Lin Xiaohe glanced at Chen Guang, who immediately understood. He walked over to the bus with a grin, took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, pulled out two cigarettes and handed them to the driver, then took out a lighter to help light them.

“Master, I’m here to see a classmate. After graduating from university, he was assigned here, and we haven’t been in touch for several years. He happened to be in the provincial capital on business, so I thought I’d like to meet him.”

"Oh, what's your classmate's name?"

Chen Guang deliberately asked, "There are over 4000 people here. Do you know my classmate?"

Why does this young man speak so unpleasantly?
The driver took a deep drag on his cigarette: "Tsk, that's good. I haven't had such a good cigarette in ages. I used to work at that factory, fifteen years of service, now I drive a bus. Your classmate is about your age, right? I used to mentor new recruits back then."

"Wow! That's impressive. The fact that you can mentor newcomers proves your skills are top-notch," Chen Guang flattered. "How did you end up driving a taxi?"

The driver snorted, "The factory has no orders and can't pay wages. If I don't drive the bus, my family will starve!"

Chen Guang looked shocked: "How could this be? When we graduated, my classmate was assigned to a picture tube factory, and everyone was so envious. How could things have turned out like this in just a few years?"

"You bet," the driver said dejectedly. "Back in the day, we were all glorious."

Chen Guang: "Is it because the factory's technology is no longer up to par?"

"Nonsense! Our production line was imported from Japan in 1984."

Chen Guang glanced at the silent Lin Xiaohe and continued, "What happened?"

"What else could it be? It's the same as other factories in the Tienan District. Outsiders are managing insiders. The workshop directors don't know anything, all they know is how to flatter. Capable technicians who don't know how to get things done can't get promoted."

The bus driver had a lot to say about this, and he chatted with Chen Guang for a long time until it was time to leave, at which point he reluctantly let go of Chen Guang.

"Old Zhou, stop showing off and hurry up and drive. A hero doesn't dwell on past glories. Our factory is just down on its luck, there's nothing to say about it." Several workers came out of the dormitory, boarded the bus, and urged him on.

Old Zhou clicked his tongue regretfully and stepped on the gas: "What are you guys doing not going to work?"

“Where are we supposed to go to work? Yesterday, the workshop foreman told us that we were being suspended without pay.”

Old Zhou's heart clenched: "There are only 800 people left on duty, and they're still withdrawing them?!"

"I think our factory is doomed to fail sooner or later."

Old Zhou touched the cigarette behind his ear, resisting the urge to smoke: "Didn't they say a new district head was coming? The new district head is the factory manager of Changhong Factory, maybe he can help?"

“Oh, Lao Zhou, how can you be so naive? There are seven or eight hundred factories in our district. Do you think our picture tubes are any good? By the time the new leaders see us, we’ll have already starved to death.”

Well, that's just how things are.

Old Zhou is at least a skilled worker. His wife works in the railway department, and they only have one daughter who works in an oil company. They don't have many burdens, and they have some connections, which is why they were able to get a job driving a bus.

The situation was dire for dual-income families and young workers in the factory.

Damn it, when will this awful life ever end?
As if he had just thought of something, Lao Zhou suddenly slammed on the brakes, nearly throwing several passengers out of the car.

"Old Zhou, what are you doing?!"

Old Zhou's pupils dilated, and his voice trembled: "Quickly, quickly inform Factory Director Liu that the new district head has come to our factory for an unannounced visit!"

I knew it… the first two chapters got rewritten again. Read them while you can and cherish them. This will accelerate the development of this node world, then I'll write about the little bug and my vast universe!

I'll never write about this kind of scene again!!!
