Chapter 110 A Special Dinner
When the man saw that Li Qin was able to withstand his pressure, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Old Wei, this is Li Qin, the one I was talking about. What do you think, isn't he great?"
Li Huaide said to the middle-aged man with a smile.
At this moment, Li Huaide had a faint look of smugness on his face.
The middle-aged man didn't speak, but nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Li Huaide turned his gaze to Li Qin:
"Xiao Qin, this is Wei Kai, the head of the security department. He is a war hero who retired from the battlefield. Remember to greet him when you see him in the future." Upon seeing the man, Li Qin sensed his extraordinary aura.
Unexpectedly, this person was the head of the security department, and a war hero who had retired from the battlefield.
This filled Li Qin with awe.
During this period, those who could be called combat heroes were not ordinary people; they had to have at least a second-class merit award.
Li Qin held this type of person in high esteem.
"Hello, Section Chief Wei! I'm Li Qin from the Purchasing Department."
Li Qin's eyes were full of respect.
Seeing this, Wei Kai's smile deepened. He could tell that Li Qin respected him not only for his position as head of the security department, but more importantly, for his status as a soldier and a combat hero.
This is what he really wants to see.
"Hello, Xiao Li."
Section Chief Wei Kai responded in a deep voice.
You could tell he had a military style just from his tone of voice:
Decisive and straightforward.
After the two greeted each other, Li Huaide smiled again and said:
"Section Chief Wei, didn't I just say that I found a batch of meat for the steel rolling mill? Actually, it was Xiao Qin who contacted us about this batch of meat."
Upon hearing this, Wei Kai glanced at Li Qin with some surprise.
Li Huaide had summoned him that afternoon specifically for this matter.
The transportation department alone definitely won't be enough to transport meat tonight.
Several thousand kilograms of meat could be a real problem if they were robbed.
Therefore, we need the assistance of the security department.
Although the security department is not under the leadership of the steel rolling mill, it is still part of the steel rolling mill.
When the meat was brought back, the security department naturally received their share.
Both publicly and privately, the security department had no reason not to help.
What Wei Kai didn't expect was that this batch of several thousand kilograms of meat was actually contacted by the young man in front of him.
A strange light flashed in Wei Kai's eyes:
"Little Li is really capable."
Li Qin, naturally not daring to be presumptuous, quickly and modestly replied:
"It's all luck, nothing to brag about."
Seeing his humility, Li Huaide's satisfaction became even more evident.
"Alright, it's about time. The cafeteria should be almost ready. Let's go now."
Li Huaide glanced at the time and then said.
Neither Wei Kai nor Li Qin spoke; they simply nodded.
The three of them then left the office and headed towards the cafeteria. Soon, they arrived at the cafeteria.
However, instead of going to the lobby on the first floor, they went straight up to a private room on the second floor.
Upon entering the room, I discovered that some people had already arrived.
Li Qin also knew some of them;
Liu Changqing, head of the purchasing department, and Wang Dawei, head of the third purchasing group.
As for the remaining few people, although Li Qin didn't recognize them, he could guess that they were not ordinary employees.
They were at least leaders of the steel rolling mill, or confidants of Li Huaide.
Upon seeing Li Huaide enter with Wei Kai and Li Qin, everyone in the room immediately put down what they were doing and stood up to greet them.
Li Huaide and Wei Kai responded to everyone in a very friendly manner.
Only after Li Huaide and Wei Kai sat down in the main seats did the rest of the group take their seats.
Li Qin didn't sit anywhere else either.
After thinking for a moment, he walked over and sat down next to Wang Dawei.
Upon seeing this, Wang Dawei and Liu Changqing immediately smiled at him.
Li Huaide, who had been keeping a close eye on Li Qin, also showed a look of satisfaction upon seeing this scene.
Li Huaide was already very satisfied with Li Qin's abilities, and through these few interactions, he had also gained a certain understanding of Li Qin's personality.
I gradually felt relieved.
"Boss, would you like to start serving the food now?"
Just then, a man who looked to have a large head suddenly asked Li Huaide a question.
Li Huaide glanced at everyone, then nodded;
"Everyone's here, let the kitchen start serving the food."
Upon hearing this, the big-headed man immediately got up and left the private room.
At this moment, a look of doubt flashed across Li Qin's face.
"The person who just went out was Zheng Wei, the head of the cafeteria."
Just then, Wang Dawei, who was standing next to him, suddenly whispered something.
Upon hearing this, Li Qin immediately looked at Wang Dawei, then smiled and nodded.
The cafeteria must have already started preparing the food.
The canteen manager, Zheng Wei, returned a few minutes later with several people carrying dishes.
However, most of the dishes served first were cold dishes, with only a few hot dishes.
As for the remaining hot dishes, they will definitely need to be stir-fried and prepared fresh.
Seeing that the dishes had been served, Li Huaide immediately stood up with his wine glass in hand.
He was the one who initiated this gathering, essentially playing the role of the host, so naturally he had to be the one to bring out the drinks on the first day.
"We're all family here, so I won't waste time with unnecessary pleasantries. Let's all drink to this, and hopefully things will go smoothly and beautifully tonight."
After saying this, Li Huaide drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
Seeing this, everyone in the room picked up their glasses and drank the wine as well.
Li Qin was no exception.
Although he wasn't good at drinking, he would have to drink even if he couldn't in this situation.
Otherwise, it wouldn't just be offending one or two people, but offending everyone present.
I originally thought the liquor would be hard to drink, but to my surprise, the aroma of grains, liquor, and lees was obvious, and the fragrance was pure and full.
Moreover, although it is somewhat spicy when it enters the mouth, it is not pungent;
It has a smooth taste and does not cause dry mouth, choking, headache, or discomfort after drinking.
This surprised Li Qin.
However, it soon became clear that the alcoholic beverages of this period were truly brewed from pure grains, unlike the blended alcoholic beverages of modern industry.
After the first glass of wine was downed, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a bit more lively.
While eating, Li Qin observed the people in the room.
Based on Li Huaide's words, he roughly understood the significance of this dinner party.
If he wasn't mistaken, everyone present was involved in delivering meat to the steel mill.
Li Huaide organized this meeting in the hope that everyone would work together to ensure the success of this employee welfare program.
Only in this way can Li Huaide use this as a springboard to get promoted.
Just then, Li Huaide stood up again, holding his wine glass.
"This second glass is for everyone. I appreciate all of you working so hard all night for this matter, and I will always remember your efforts."
Thank you everyone.
Li Huaide downed the drink in one gulp again.
Seeing this, everyone naturally followed suit.
I thought that after Li Huaide raised the second glass of wine, he would pause for a while before raising the last glass.
Unexpectedly, after finishing his drink, he immediately refilled his own glass.
"This third glass is to thank Xiao Qin," Li Huaide said, holding his glass and looking at Li Qin.
Li Qin was at a loss.
