Having achieved financial freedom, I reorganized my workplace.

Chapter 59 should be fine, right?

After finishing the meeting, Director Song picked up his water cup and slowly walked away.

Tan Huasheng specifically named Liang Xiaoyu, deputy director of the Safety Supervision Department; Tan Peixin, specialist of the Party and Mass Work Department; Wang Licheng, technician of Bailu Water Station; Liu Sheng, station manager of Linshan Water Plant; Wang Yang, professional of the Marketing Department; Liao Shihui, team member of the Production Technology Department; Chen Ya, specialist of the Office; and Lin Chen, who were to be retained.

These people have some things in common: they are mostly young, and they are generally active figures in the company. They are close to the leaders and are seen by others as the backbone and pillars of the company.

Moreover, several of them were promoted by Tan Huasheng, such as Wang Yang, Liang Xiaoyu, and Chen Ya can also be considered half of them.

Lin Chen felt he definitely didn't qualify; besides being handsome and tall, he had nothing else to offer.

However, Tan Huasheng had no choice but to keep him, because Director Song had just called his name.

Once everyone else had gone far away and disappeared from sight...

Tan Huasheng then spoke: "Liu Sheng, go close the door and lock it." Liu Sheng didn't understand, but he still obediently went to close the door.

No, not your mother.

Closing the door is understandable, but locking it is suspicious. What shady business are they planning to do?

Lin Chen would have wanted to run away immediately if he hadn't seen Chen Ya inside.

Everyone seemed to be under some pressure, and their eyes revealed tension.

After Liu Sheng closed the door, Tan Huasheng said with a smile, "Everyone, don't be nervous. We're all on the same side now. Locking the door is just to make it easier for us to talk."

Lin Chen didn't know when he had become his person, or if he was trying to force himself on him. In any case, Lin Chen never thought of himself as anyone's person, and he resolutely refused to take sides.

"You've all heard what Director Song said. The reason I kept you few here is to send you down to do some water quality testing."

Tan Huasheng paused for a moment, looked at everyone, and continued, "I want to emphasize that this is a serious mission. The quality of the water is related to the company's reputation, so I hope you will all take it seriously and make this mission a success."

Lin Chen sensed something was amiss.

It's more accurate to talk about Tan Huasheng's reputation than the company's. After all, he has been in charge of the company's water supply module for five years, and it's time for him to show results.

Wang Yang, as Tan's number one supporter, replied in a low voice: "Director Tan, I actually think Director Song is making a mountain out of a molehill. You are in charge of the company's business, how could there be any problem with the company's water quality?"

Tan Huasheng smiled and said, "You can say this here, but don't let anyone with ulterior motives spread it. Who can guarantee anything about this?"

Tan Huasheng is a descendant of Zeng Huihuang, and his connections on the front lines are unmatched by Director Song. Many people know that when Director Tan goes to the countryside, he is treated to the best food, drink, lodging, and prostitutes. However, no one dares to prepare prostitutes for Director Song because he has no taste for that.

"There's definitely no problem, I can guarantee it."

That's just Wang Yang's style of doing things. When his superiors give him instructions, regardless of whether it's feasible or not, he'll first pat his chest and say that it's definitely possible and that he can definitely do it, filling you with enthusiasm.

Tan Huasheng nodded approvingly: "Hmm, what about the others? Any questions?"

Liang Xiaoyu followed closely behind: "Director Tan, I heard from Director Song that this water quality report is to be shown to the old leader. Do you have any requirements regarding the data testing?"

That's a good question.

Tan Huasheng glanced at Liang Xiaoyu and criticized, "My requirements? What requirements do I have? I have no requirements. If you insist that I have any, then my requirements are to be realistic and not to engage in any deception. Face up to the problems and shortcomings, and do not exaggerate or exaggerate."

These words filled Lin Chen with awe and admiration for Tan Huasheng; he was truly an artist of words.

You've said everything, what are you going to say?

Liang Xiaoyu was a smart man and immediately understood: "Okay, Director Tan, I understand too."

The others weren't stupid either. After all, anyone who had risen to this position in the company was someone with extremely high emotional and intellectual intelligence. So they all nodded and said, "We understand, we definitely understand, we will definitely complete the task perfectly."

Everyone understood, but Lin Chen sat there quietly without saying anything. Tan Huasheng seemed worried and asked Lin Chen again, "Lin Chen, are you okay?"

Lin Chen: "What problem could I possibly have? Everyone else is fine, so I'm fine too."

After listening, Tan Huasheng said, "Then there are no problems. Liang Xiaoyu, you have experience in water quality monitoring, so please take on the responsibility of being in charge. Tomorrow, divide the people into four groups and set off to conduct water quality testing. After you have collected the data, summarize it and then give it to me. If I have no problems after reviewing it, I will give it to Director Song."

Liang Xiaoyu: "No problem, I guarantee I'll complete the mission."

Tan Huasheng smiled and said, "If we do a good job on this mission, I'll treat everyone to dinner."

Holy crap, that's so generous?

The meeting adjourned just like that.

Suixian County's water supply mainly comes from four water plants (Linshan, Bailu, Huoji, and Wenxiang) and one key water station (Wushan). The Wushan water station not only shoulders the responsibility of water supply, but also plays a crucial role in Suixian County's water source adjustment, water storage, and agricultural development.

The division of labor this time is two people per group, each person testing the water quality at two or more water stations (plants).

Then everyone shares the data together.

Lin Chen actually felt that testing at the user end would be more accurate, but Liang Xiaoyu disagreed, saying that water quality monitoring should start from the source, and that water from other sources of secondary pollution was not convincing and could not represent the quality of the company's water.

Damn, that makes some sense.

Lin Chen and Liang Xiaoyu were paired up to test the Wushan Water Station and the Huoji Water Plant. Before setting off, Lin Chen noticed that Liang Xiaoyu's hands were empty.

"Director Liang, we don't have the tools, how can we test it? Should we apply for some tools first? I remember the company has several water quality testing instruments."

Liang Xiaoyu frowned: "I don't think that's necessary. Just taking a look and smelling it is enough."

Lin Chen: "We're not dogs, how can our noses tell the difference? This is too inaccurate."

Liang Xiaoyu: "No, Lin Chen, why do you need such accurate data?"

These words left Lin Chen speechless.

Lin Chen: "We need some reference data, otherwise how can we determine whether there's a problem with the water quality?"

Liang Xiaoyu: "Generally there shouldn't be any problems. Even if the company's water is of a certain standard, it can only be considered as good as not having any issues."

Lin Chen: "If that's what you're saying, then there's no need to do the testing; the conclusion is already there."

Liang Xiaoyu: "Lin Chen, didn't you understand what Director Tan meant? He told me to make this matter look better."

Lin Chen: "Whether it looks good or not is another matter, but at least we need to know the actual situation. Otherwise, what will you say when Director Song asks?"

Liang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and said, "Then what do you suggest we do? The boss hasn't given me any tools."

Lin Chen: "Then go get some pH test strips and test the acidity or alkalinity, that should be enough."

Liang Xiaoyu: "Okay, my department happens to have some. I'll go get them."

And so, the two drove to the water plant.
