"He's back in the second canteen, and I'll definitely be the first one he targets."

As a disciple of Sha Zhu, Ma Hua opposed him, which naturally provoked Sha Zhu's retaliation.

"Don't worry, this silly Zhu won't amount to anything."

Throughout history, those who have achieved great things have always been people with calm and patient personalities.

Someone like Sha Zhu, who doesn't even consider the consequences of his words, would be like a grasshopper in autumn, unable to hop for long even if he returned to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

"That's fine, that's fine."

With Li Jianjun's confidence as a foundation, MCA has exceptional confidence.

"Section Chief Li, if you need any help in the future, just let me know, and I will do my best to cooperate."

MCA said with great confidence.

...

Li Jianjun's judgment of Sha Zhu was correct, but that was the Sha Zhu of the past.

After talking with Yi Zhonghai, Sha Zhu cherished this job opportunity.

That day, on my way back from the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, as I walked into the courtyard, I inevitably heard people whispering and discussing their own affairs.

Sha Zhu kept Yi Zhonghai's teachings in mind and avoided conflicts with others.

To avoid giving anyone a handle to use against him, he didn't even bring back the leftovers from the cafeteria.

"Hey, Shazhu, you're back working at the steel mill. That's great news!"

As soon as I got home, Yan Bugui followed me from behind. Could the seeker of ink possibly benefit from this?

In the past, Sha Zhu would have certainly talked a lot of nonsense and made grandiose claims.

The lesson learned last time is still fresh; we can't be reckless again this time.

"Yes, Uncle. I've been working all day and I'm tired. Why don't you go home first?"

Sha Zhu gave them the order to leave.

Seeing that there was no way to gain anything, Yan Bugui slunk away.

...

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Sha Zhu behaved himself in the factory, speaking politely to everyone, truly becoming a coward.

This made Li Jianjun look at him with new respect.

This foolish Zhu learned his lesson and focused on his work, which allowed Li Jianjun to enjoy a rare period of leisure.

In his spare time, he would go fishing. Because of his superb fishing skills, he won the envy of Yan Bu, who would follow him fishing every day.

Li Jianjun is not the kind of person who stirs up trouble.

He lives a peaceful life, and if others don't bother him, he won't go looking for trouble.

In mid-November, the weather turned cool.

Finally, another Sunday arrived, and Yan Bugui and Li Jianjun went fishing together again.

However, unlike before, he brought along a little follower, Yu Haitang, today.

Yu Haitang has intensified her offensive on Li Jianjun these past few days, successfully becoming his fishing buddy.

"Jianjun, besides the fish bucket and fish food, what else do you need?"

This was Yu Haitang's first time going fishing with Li Jianjun, and she had absolutely no experience.

"Get two more small stools; they're so comfortable to sit on while fishing."

"By the way, wear something warmer, it's getting chilly now."

"Boil another kettle of water and pour it into the cup."

Li Jianjun sat in his rocking chair at home, giving Yu Haitang instructions over and over again.

The famous beauty of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, dressed in a stylish Western-style dress, was busy running around Li Jianjun's house.

Those young men who admired her never imagined that their goddess would be willing to be Li Jianjun's servant.

"Jianjun, are you ready?"

Yan Bugui, holding a fishing rod, started shouting even before entering the door.

"Alright, alright, what's the rush?"

Li Jianjun slowly stood up, got on his bicycle, and Yu Haitang sat behind him.

Yu Haitang was carrying a bucket of fish in her hand, and a small stool was tied to the cart frame.

In this day and age, bicycles are used to transport people and goods.

Back then, a bicycle could solve the whole family's transportation problem.

Next to the back seat of the bicycle, a metal cage with a hollow top can be welded on, so that children can sit inside.

Looking at the horizontal bar, there's enough room for another child, and an adult can sit in the back seat.

This is the standard setup for a family of four traveling together.

Soon we arrived at the outer moat, where many anglers had already set up their fishing gear.

As Li Jianjun arrived, those people greeted him warmly.

There was even a man in his thirties who handed Li Jianjun a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes.

"Brother Li, here to fish again?"

"Who is this? Your sister-in-law, right?"

The middle-aged man's address of "sister-in-law" left Yu Haitang completely bewildered, and she assumed he was Li Jianjun's wife.

Li Jianjun neither denied nor confirmed, and accepted the Daqianmen cigarette.

"Brother Shang, you're here really early today."

Shang Yunzhi is a 35-year-old middle-aged man with a woman in her fifties by his side, parents who need care, and two young children to feed.

His salary alone was not enough to support his family, so he often went out fishing to supplement their income.

Unfortunately, his fishing skills were not impressive; he either returned empty-handed or caught very few and small fish.

He naturally admired Li Jianjun's fishing skills very much.

"Yeah, it's a rare Sunday, I want to catch more fish."

The two chatted for a while and then started to lower their fishing rods.

Li Jianjun sat on a small stool, a cigarette dangling from his lips, chatting with Shang Yunzhi.

As they were talking, the float sank, and Li Jianjun realized that a big fish had taken the bait.

He quickly grabbed the fishing rod and started casting it upwards. A large grass carp weighing five or six pounds was pulled directly out of the water.

"What a huge grass carp!"

"Jianjun, you're really lucky."

Yan Bugui was puzzled. Every time he went fishing in the same place as Li Jianjun, Li Jianjun would catch a lot of fish, while he could only catch a few.

As he spoke, he came over and helped Li Jianjun take the grass carp off the table.

Seeing that Yan Bugui's family was indeed in dire straits, and that Yan Bugui had always taken good care of him in the yard, Li Jianjun had an idea.

"Uncle, you can have this grass carp."

"That should be enough for your whole family to have two meals."

Yan Bugui was overjoyed.

“Jianjun, I’ve never caught one this big since I started fishing.”

"Thank you so much."

Yan Bugui carried the fat fish with a happy smile, his heart filled with gratitude towards Li Jianjun.

Yu Haitang pouted, looking very unhappy, and quietly tugged at Li Jianjun's sleeve.

"Brother Jianjun, please give our family the next fish you catch."

Li Jianjun nodded.

"Of course. I brought a lot of bait today, enough to feed you three fish."

Yu Haitang was overjoyed and just wanted to kiss Li Jianjun.

Unfortunately, there were so many people fishing, and she felt embarrassed.

"Brother Jianjun, where did you buy this bait?"

Shang Yunzhi looked at Li Jianjun's bait, which was clearly different from theirs. "It's just earthworms dug up from the ground and kept in a box. There's nothing special about it."

The bait that Li Jianjun showed was indeed earthworms, but...

Chapter 189 Twins

These baits were system rewards; they were earthworms coated with the fish's favorite scent. "That's strange then. Why is it that even when we use earthworms, we still catch fewer fish than you?"

Li Jianjun smiled and shook his head.

This wasn't the first time Shang Yunzhi and Li Jianjun had gone fishing together; they had gotten to know each other over time.

Shang Yunzhi then inquired about Li Jianjun's family situation from Yan Bugui.

You wouldn't know unless you asked, and what you found out was quite shocking.

"Old Yan, you're saying this Li Jianjun is the head of the security department at Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill?"

No wonder Shang Yunzhi was so surprised.

Judging by his age, Li Jianjun is only in his early twenties.

The head of the security department earns a salary of 110 yuan, which is 20 yuan higher than the salary of an eighth-grade fitter.

Even within the entire Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, you could count on your fingers and toes the number of people who earned more than Li Jianjun.
