Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

After all, Qin Huairu didn't want Jia Zhangshi to go to the neighborhood office to quit taking painkillers again!

Seeing that Qin Huairu wouldn't buy her painkillers, Jia Zhangshi came up with a new trick.

That means asking the doctor to prescribe painkillers for her.

Once the doctor prescribed it for her, Qin Huairu couldn't stop her.

But how can a doctor prescribe painkillers for her?

Jia Zhangshi's solution was to go to the hospital more often.

If she goes to the doctor frequently, seeing that she often has headaches and fevers, the doctor will definitely prescribe painkillers for her.

Qin Huairu was actually aware of Jia Zhangshi's little tricks.

However, in order to maintain her image as a filial daughter, she couldn't say that she wouldn't take Jia Zhangshi for a checkup.

Therefore, she could only secretly tell the doctor when taking Jia Zhangshi for a check-up not to prescribe painkillers for Jia Zhangshi, because Jia Zhangshi was allergic to painkillers.

All I can say is that the power struggle between this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is just as exciting as a palace drama!

In the blink of an eye, several days have passed.

Today is the day the propaganda department will show a movie and give a moral education class to all the factory workers.

For this matter, the steel rolling mill gave the entire plant an afternoon off.

So after lunch, the workers gathered in the steel rolling mill's large open space to watch a movie.

Since Xu Damao was punished by being made to sweep the streets, the task of showing movies naturally fell to other projectionists from the propaganda department.

Factory leaders, including Li Huaide, arrived early and studied the ideas in the movie with the workers.

Once the crowd had arrived, the projectionist began showing the movie.

However, less than ten minutes into the movie, the screen suddenly went blank, and the characters' voices disappeared.

Faced with this unexpected situation, Li Huaide immediately looked at the projectionist: "What happened? Can it be fixed?"

At that moment, the projectionist's mind went blank; he hadn't expected such a malfunction to occur.

After hearing Li Huaide's question, the projectionist came to his senses and slowly said, "Don't worry, Director, it will be fixed soon!"

After saying that, the projectionist quickly began to organize the bag and the projector.

When he saw the ribbon twisted into a pretzel, his heart sank!

But given the current situation, he can only make do with what he has to do and start repairing it.

The repair took about twenty minutes, and the workers below started to jeer.

"Is this okay? If not, let's change the movie!"

"That's right, we can't show movies about ideological education anymore, so we can show a war movie instead!"

"That's right, tunnel warfare and landmine warfare are both fine. Even though we've seen them before, it's okay to watch them again!"

……

Li Huaide's expression turned somewhat unpleasant as the workers began to jeer.

Looking at the projectionist repairing the tape, Li Huaide asked in a low voice, "Can it be fixed or not? Tell the truth! If not, replace him."

The projectionist had no choice but to look at Li Huaide and say, "Director, the tape is badly wound; we might have to cut a section off."

A deputy factory director glared at the projectionist and said, "I think we should cut you out! Who in your propaganda department has the best projection skills? Call him over here!"

"Deputy Factory Director Zhao, the veteran projectionists who were good at projection have all retired. Now, the best projectionist is Xu Damao!" The projectionist was somewhat pleased, but still honestly said, "However, Xu Damao was punished by being sent to sweep the streets for the Ministry of Health. Now, I am the best projectionist in the propaganda department!"

Hearing that the other party dared to talk back, the deputy factory director Zhao said with a somewhat ugly expression, "Without Xu Damao, can't your propaganda department even show a movie properly? Section Chief Feng, write a self-criticism and hand it in later."

Head of the Publicity Department, Feng, immediately stood up and nodded in agreement.

Deputy Factory Director Zhao then looked at Li Huaide and said, "Factory Director, do you think we should call Xu Damao over and have him repair the tape? Otherwise, today's ideological education class can't continue!"

At this moment, in order to save face for the propaganda department, Section Chief Feng also whispered in agreement: "Factory Director, there are so many workers on site. If we change the tape, it will have a bad influence if word gets out! If someone makes a fuss about this, it will put our steel rolling mill in a very passive position."

Li Huaide nodded in agreement with what Section Chief Feng said.

He may seem successful now, but who knows how many eyes are watching him secretly!

So if possible, he will try his best to prevent others from finding fault with him.

"How has Xu Damao performed these past two days?" Li Huaide asked the leader from the Ministry of Health.

Upon hearing Li Huaide's inquiry, the leader from the Ministry of Health quickly stood up and said, "According to the supervisors, Xu Damao has been quite proactive these past few days. Many workers even say that Xu Damao has changed completely after his labor reform, and they all say that the factory leaders' decision to put Xu Damao through labor reform was brilliant."

Hearing this, Li Huaide smiled with satisfaction: "So, Xu Damao is truly repentant. Let's give him a chance this time to atone for his sins. If he can fix the tape and allow today's movie to be shown normally, he can return to the propaganda department to work as a projectionist!"

No one objected to Li Huaide's words.

Since Xu Damao has genuinely repented, they, as his leaders, should naturally give him a chance to reform!

After Li Huaide unified the leaders' thinking, he sent someone to summon Xu Damao.

Xu Damao, dressed in the special uniform of a member of the Ministry of Health, ran over, covered in sweat.

It looks like they were just cleaning!

On the large playground, Xiao Shan, who was standing with Ding Qiunan, looked at Xu Damao walking in front of the leaders and smiled slightly.

Xiaoshan is certain that Xu Damao is involved in this movie screening accident!

The movie tapes shown today were brand new ones delivered from above; how could they suddenly break?

Xu Damao approached Li Huaide and greeted the group of leaders with a smile, saying, "Factory Director, esteemed leaders, what instructions do you have for me?"

Li Huaide looked at Xu Damao and said calmly, "Xu Damao, go and see if the tapes from this screening can be repaired. It's okay if they can't be repaired. But if they can be repaired, I'll give you a reward."

Li Huaide had originally planned to give up on Xu Damao, but he didn't expect Xu Damao to have a special skill.

If Xu Damao performs well in the next two months, Li Huaide has decided to consider promoting him.

Liu Haizhong is good at charging into battle, but he's really not good at anything else.

Therefore, Li Huaide still wanted to find someone to share his burdens.

Xu Damao quickly replied, "Don't worry, Factory Director, I will do my best to fix the tape!"

Seeing Xu Damao walk up to the projector, the projectionist who had just been showing the movie left dejectedly, despite his reluctance.

He's not as skilled as Xu Damao, so it's a disgrace for him to stay here.

As Xu Damao began to manipulate the screen, the image reappeared on the screen after only three minutes.

Looking at the movie playing again, Li Huaide nodded in satisfaction: "Xu Damao, considering that you have recently shown genuine remorse, we have decided to give you a chance. You will undergo three months of labor reform in the propaganda department!"

As he spoke, Li Huaide looked at Section Chief Feng and said, "Section Chief Feng, you need to do a good job of supervising Xu Damao."

"Don't worry, Factory Director, I will definitely do my job of supervision," Section Chief Feng said, standing up.

Xu Damao, looking excited, said to Li Huaide, "Don't worry, Factory Director, I will definitely work hard and never make the same mistake again!"

Li Huaide nodded slightly and turned his gaze back to the curtain.

After the two films ended, the leaders left the room.

After the leaders left, the workers also left the playground in twos and threes to go home after get off work.

That evening, an excited Xu Damao found Xiao Shan and invited him to his home for drinks.

Xiaoshan naturally did not refuse.

Upon arriving at Xu Damao's house, the two sat down and began drinking.

After a few drinks, Xu Damao said happily to Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, I'm finally out of that lousy place, the Ministry of Health!"

"Brother Mao, it's all thanks to your skill. Otherwise, even if you had such a great opportunity, you wouldn't have been able to seize it!" Xiao Shan gently praised Xu Damao.

Xu Damao said smugly, "That's right, I'm the best projectionist in the steel mill! Given what happened this afternoon, none of the other projectionists in the factory could do it!"

After boasting about himself, Xu Damao looked at Xiao Shan and asked, "Xiao Shan, when do you think Director Li will promote me?"

"You'll have to complete at least three months of labor reform!" Xiao Shan put down his cup and looked at Xu Damao. "After all, the initial announcement that you would undergo three months of labor reform is final! Director Li has only transferred you from the Health Department to the Propaganda Department; the labor reform punishment is still in effect!"

"So if Director Li wants to promote you, it will have to wait until after this time!"

Xu Damao nodded, agreeing with Xiao Shan's point.

He then sighed and said, "Xiaoshan, why is it so hard for me to become an official? That Ma Hua kid, I will never let him get away with it!"

"Brother Mao, if you want to be a leader, you have to be tolerant of others, otherwise you'll be forced to step down sooner or later!" Xiao Shan advised Xu Damao.

Xu Damao poured Xiao Shan a drink: "Alright, buddy, I'll listen to you! As long as I can become a leader, I won't stoop to Ma Hua's level!"

Seeing that Xu Damao seemed to have become like Liu Haizhong, a power-hungry official, Xiao Shan couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.

The two drank until after 9 p.m. before Xiao Shan finally left Xu Damao's house.

Back home, Xiao Shan washed up and then went to play games with Ding Qiunan.

After finishing the game, Xiao Shan looked at Ding Qiunan, who was fast asleep, and lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed) to begin his cultivation.

Since marrying Ding Qiunan, Xiao Shan has been practicing his cultivation on the kang (a heated brick bed) while lying down.

After all, Ding Qiunan might not be able to stand sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) to sleep every day.

While cultivating, Xiao Shan also kept an eye on the chat in the chat group.

Liu Bei: "The strategist just sent word that he has borrowed three commanderies from Liu Jiyu: Ba Commandery, Badong Commandery, and Baxi Commandery, to serve as our forward base for the Northern Expedition!"

Zhang Chulan: "Holy crap, amazing! No wonder he's Zhuge Liang! He actually managed to borrow such a large territory from Liu Zhang with just words!"

Liu Bei: "It wasn't just empty talk! Liu Jiyu did put forward some conditions!"

Ying Zheng: "What conditions? I'd like to hear what conditions would make Liu Zhang lend out such a large territory!"

Huang Rong: "I'm also curious, what conditions did Liu Zhang propose!"

It wasn't just Ying Zheng and Huang Rong; everyone else in the chat group was curious.

Liu Bei: "First of all, I must admit that these lands all belong to Liu Jiyu, and are only temporarily borrowed; they shall not be occupied."

Liu Bei: "Secondly, I need to send Liu Feng to Chengdu as a hostage."

Liu Bei: "Finally, the loan period is ten years. After ten years, regardless of whether the Northern Expedition succeeds or not, I must return the land."

Ying Zheng: "He actually knew to ask you to send a hostage. It seems that although Liu Zhang lacks the courage and strategy to do great things, he is not stupid."

Huang Rong: "I have to say, Liu Zhang just wants to maintain his isolated position and has you shield him from the pressure from Zhang Lu and Cao Cao!"

Liu Bei: "Yes, my brother Ji Yu has absolutely no intention of restoring the Han dynasty!"

Yue Buqun: "But this is good too. As long as we can defeat Cao Cao and Sun Quan, Liu Zhang will naturally recognize the opportunity and become a hero! Moreover, with Liu Zhang and you, my imperial uncle, as comparisons, any talented people in Yizhou with a bit of ambition will come to your side!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "Given Zhuge Liang's personality, if Liu Zhang had made three conditions, he wouldn't have remained silent!"

Liu Bei: "Laughing emoji! Of course, the strategist has also put forward three conditions!"

Liu Bei: "First of all, the land of Sanba will be entirely handed over to us for garrison and governance for the next ten years. Liu Jiyu must cooperate, at least nominally."

Liu Bei: "Secondly, Liu Jiyu should also send one of his sons to Jingzhou for further study!"

Liu Bei: "Finally, our side has just experienced a great battle, and Liu Jiyu needs to provide some money and provisions for our advance."

Han Li: "Judging from Liu Huangshu's future video, Zhuge Liang's three conditions are really tailor-made for Liu Zhang. There's no way Liu Zhang could refuse them!"

Liu Bei: "Yes, strategist, Liu Zhang did not refuse any of these three conditions! However, I am now worried about my son Liu Feng. What if he encounters some danger in Chengdu? How can I face Liu Bi?"

Liu Bi was Liu Feng's maternal uncle. When Liu Bei adopted Liu Feng as his adopted son, he had obtained Liu Bi's consent!

Zhang Chulan: "I don't think you need to worry about that, Imperial Uncle! Although Liu Zhang is somewhat incompetent and lacks ambition, he is a kind and benevolent person. Liu Feng's safety is guaranteed!"

Ying Zheng: "Although Liu Zhang lent you these three counties, you still need to think carefully about whether you want to control them!"

Looking at Ying Zheng's words, Liu Bei showed an expression of agreement.

Liu Zhang was so generous in giving up these territories precisely because he couldn't control the local governors.

If Liu Zhang could persuade them to relinquish power with a single word, he wouldn't need to ask for help from Liu Zhang when Zhang Lu attacked.
