“A level 5 clerk will do. Don't move around for now, our department head is about to retire early. After National Day, I might be able to move up.”
Hearing Lin's father, the few people at the table were taken aback.
“His dad, is this news reliable?” Lin's mother asked.
Lin's father nodded and said: “The chief called me for a talk today. My old platoon leader called ahead to the Ministry.”
Hearing his father’s words, Lin Yu knew this was a sure thing.
Lin's father's old platoon leader was the one who personally took Lin's father to the battlefield during the War of Resistance Against Japan.
Before transferring to the Armed Department, he served as the political commissar of a certain division and is now a big shot in the Armed Department.
It has to be said that Lin's father was indeed favored by many good leaders due to his bravery in combat.
If Lin's father hadn't been blinded by anger and committed the taboo of killing prisoners of war, he wouldn't be where he is now.
“Second son, I won't interfere with your affairs for a while. That Li Huai De has a good foundation, get along well with him, in the future the Rolling Mill will have a place for him.”
Hearing his father's words, Lin Yu almost laughed.
In the future, the Rolling Mill will not have a place for Li Huai De, in the future, the entire Rolling Mill will be his territory.
Old Yang, that good-for-nothing, is really no match for Old Li.
“This time, the Security Department will undergo a major change. A department head and a deputy department head will be moved.” Lin's father said after taking a sip of wine.
“Our department head will be transferred to the First Iron & Steel Factory. My old squad leader will come here to be the head of the Security Department.”
“The deputy director of the Dongcheng Branch will also be the deputy head of the Security Department. I'll go up to the Security Section. Additionally, twenty soldiers will be transferred from the troops to serve as internal security guards.”
After his father finished speaking, Lin Yu couldn't help but frown.
This is a big move. The eldest and the second have both been transferred.
The internal affairs are put in the hands of his father, a tough guy. This is obviously targeting the remaining forces of the Rolling Mill.
You have to know, the Rolling Mill is not exactly a place of chaos, but it's certainly a time of contending for power.
Just the Ministry of Industry has several factions in the Rolling Mill: Old Yang, Old Li, and Secretary Nie.
Not to mention the remaining forces left by the Lou family.
The current head of the Security Department of the Rolling Mill is a transfer from the army who came to the city.
Two of the three deputy department heads are old hands in the Rolling Mill, which obviously won't do.
Normally, the Security Department is directly managed by the Armed Department, co-managed by the Ministry of Public Security, and the factory administration is responsible for the expenses and logistics.
All food, clothing, housing, and transportation go through the factory administration department.
This is why the head of the Security Department must be a transferred regimental cadre.
One of the three deputy department heads is a deputy director of the district branch, responsible for coordinating work with the district branch and police stations.
One is selected by the factory administration and is responsible for the logistics and comprehensive affairs of the Security Department.
The last one is also transferred from the army, mainly responsible for internal investigations and anti-enemy work of the Political Security Section and Investigation Section.
After those twenty soldiers arrive, the section under his father's command will be strong.
“Dad, I understand. I'll take care of the Procurement Section myself. I got acquainted with the director of the Dongzhimen Supply and Marketing Cooperative today. I'll send him three wild boars the day after tomorrow.”
“In the future, if your Security Section needs any supplies, I can help.” Lin’s father nodded in satisfaction, his second son has grown up.
As for how he got the wild boars and where he put them, Lin's father didn’t ask.
Everyone has their secrets. Look at the wolf skin at home, it's gone.
The two girls were busy eating meat and soup. Lin's father and Lin Yu clinked their glasses.
Only Sha Zhu was looking at the Lin family in shock.
No wonder Little Yu is so successful, look at how they educate their children. I’m here looking at cookbooks, and the Lin family is already making connections with department heads.
“Brother Zhu, help me braise this set of wild boar offal later. I’ll need your help dealing with these things in the future.” Lin Yu said, clinking glasses with Sha Zhu.
“What are you talking about, brother? This chef is here to do this. Just let me know if you need anything.”
Lin Yu nodded and said: “Okay, Brother Zhu, you have to get me some spices for making sausage and cured sausage tomorrow. I’ll give you the money then.”
Seeing Sha Zhu about to speak, Lin Yu quickly said: “Brother Zhu, you have to take the money. I need a lot of spices, enough for at least thousands of pounds of meat.”
As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, even Lin's father looked at Lin Yu in surprise.
“Son, how much did you actually hunt this time?”
Lin Yu shook his head and smiled: “I kept a few wild boars and didn't turn them in to the factory, they're for making connections. I also found a herd of wild boars in the mountains, about twenty more. When it gets cooler, we'll go get them.”
“Brother, you're the best.” Sha Zhu gave Lin Yu a thumbs up in admiration.
Lin Yu smiled and夹了一块肉 for his shocked younger sister and Yu Shui, saying: “Little sister, Yu Shui, eat more meat. We won't be short of meat in the future.”
Lin's father smiled and nodded: “Since you are so capable, I'll take the remaining three wolf skins. Do you have anything else good to give away?”
“There are also deer and mountain goats. I’m planning to soak 50 jin of deer blood wine. It can be used for our own consumption or for gifts.”
Lin's father pondered for a while and said: “Tomorrow is Saturday, work one more day, and early the day after tomorrow, bring the wolf skin, deer meat, and mutton back to me. I need to go out and take care of some things.”
“Okay, I'll get them ready and bring them back.” Lin Yu nodded in agreement.
Then he turned to his mother and said: “Mom, after you finish eating, send some wild boar meat to Aunt Wang.”
Aunt Wang, as Lin Yu called her, is Lin's mother's boss, Director Wang of the Street Office.
“Okay, what’s up with you?” Lin's mother nodded.
Lin Yu pointed to the west courtyard and said: “I have my eyes on the west courtyard, I want to build a house there.”
“My dad's current position is high enough to be allocated three rooms for our family. I'll be promoted to a level 5 clerk, and you, a level 4 clerk, will be able to get four regular rooms.”
“The foundation of the three regular rooms and two side rooms in the west courtyard will be built by ourselves. It should be enough for our level. It would be best if we could turn the yard into a private one.”
Lin's mother pondered for a moment and said: “Building it ourselves and turning it into a private one should be possible. You just need to transfer your factory housing eligibility to the street office.”
“That’s good. I'll transfer the relationship next Tuesday, then we'll start construction.” Lin Yu nodded.
