However, facing this benefactor, how could he dare to resist? He could only force a smile and agree.
In his heart, he thought, at worst, he would owe it for now. Could a worker be more difficult to deal with than Xu Ning?
Seeing that everything was settled, Xu Ning reached out and said, "Then let's have a pleasant cooperation."
"Haha, pleasant, very pleasant!"
Just as Kakanov was about to leave, Xu Ning suddenly remembered something and said,
"Right, Mr. Kakanov, that worker of mine doesn't accept credit. Please remember to pay the full amount first, otherwise the truck won't be able to leave."
"Oh, is that so... Understood, Mr. Xu."
After Kakanov finished speaking haltingly, his dissatisfaction with Xu Ning surged in his heart, but he still closed the door helplessly. He walked towards the parking lot and immediately saw the truck parked next to his BMW and Little Ivan tinkering with his car.
Little Ivan straightened up immediately when he saw him coming. Kakanov asked, "Are you sent by Mr. Xu to drive the truck?"
Little Ivan nodded. Kakanov reluctantly took out a few ruble bills from his wallet, counted them several times, and only handed them to Little Ivan after making sure the amount was correct.
"Hmph, you lucky kid, take your money and follow my car!"
Kakanov got into his car angrily, while Little Ivan was overjoyed, counting the money he received, thinking: "Mr. Xu is really smart, it turns out you don't need fists to make people suffer."
After seeing Kakanov off, Xu Ning called Zhao Zhide and gave him a sum of money. Ivanyafu's security team was unreliable, so Xu Ning had to quickly form a security team for the factory.
After paying wages, there was some money left from what Kakanov sent, which was just enough to use for this.
Zhao Zhide originally wanted to report on the progress of the tank project. After all, the progress has been very fast recently, and he didn't want to miss the opportunity to show his ability in front of the Shanhai Industry leaders.
Someone so young who became a workshop supervisor was definitely not an ordinary person, but Xu Ning didn't have time to listen to this. As soon as Zhao Zhide was about to speak, he hurried to the naval gun workshop.
When Xu Ning returned to the workshop in the afternoon, the roar of machines outside was deafening.
Upon entering the workshop, there was a busy scene inside, as if in a bustling market. Workers were busy moving back and forth, and parts were being sent to the naval gun assembly area at the end of the workshop. Everything was orderly, and everyone was efficiently completing the work at hand.
Under Security Guard Lie's command, all positions had enough personnel, and all components were being produced and assembled smoothly.
With Xu Ning's financial incentives, the workers were highly motivated and everyone was full of energy. Xu Ning himself was not idle either, standing in front of the CNC machine tool, processing new parts according to the design drawings, and kept busy until late at night.
When it got dark, Kadeyafu was so surprised he couldn't speak when he heard that Xu Ning had paid the workers in advance.
What shocked him even more was that this money was actually sent by the notorious businessman Kakanov. This news almost choked Kadeyafu, and the bread fell out of his mouth.
Kadeyafu, who was originally in a bad mood due to the slow progress, regained his confidence at this moment. He quickly ate some bread and then led Ivanyafu's security team out again.
In the car, looking at the starry sky, he made up his mind to strive to become the person in charge of Menskyuk Military Industry and protect the future of Malyshev Military Factory.
Late at night, when Xu Ning returned to his residence, he learned the news that Kadeyafu had gone out again. Although he was somewhat curious about Kadeyafu's actions, he was now only focused on completing the manufacturing of the naval gun as quickly as possible.
Today's progress was very smooth, and most of the main components of the naval gun have been completed. The night shift workers have also taken over.
If everything goes according to plan, it is expected that the assembly will be completed by tomorrow morning, and test firing can be carried out in the afternoon. The goal was achieved in just two days. Thinking of this, Xu Ning felt very relieved and soon fell asleep.
However, in the early morning hours, a drunken Tato appeared at the workshop entrance with a box of explosives. Even after showering several times at home, there was still a faint strange smell on him. After drinking four or five bottles of vodka, Tato lost control of his emotions and cried bitterly at home.
In his life, he had never suffered such humiliation. Burning with anger, and with a hot head, he found the explosives he used to use for fishing from his home.
He planned to use these explosives to destroy the naval gun and teach Xu Ning a lesson!
The workers along the way were all busy with their own work, and no one noticed him.
However, as he approached the naval gun step by step, the drunkenness gradually faded, and his consciousness began to clear. Standing in front of the huge naval gun, he suddenly felt a sense of fear.
After sobering up, he realized that if the explosives were really detonated, not only would he lose his job, but he would also implicate everyone in the small town.
The residents of the small town would never forgive the culprit who put the factory in crisis. Just as he was thinking of escaping the scene, a heavy hand fell on his shoulder.
"Hey, Tato, what are you doing here?"
Tato looked up and saw Gaussfu, speechless for a moment. Gaussfu was his neighbor and had just had a daughter recently named Natasha, a name as beautiful as a little angel.
If the naval gun was really blown up, Gaussfu would be the first to come to him to settle the score.
Thinking of this, Tato completely sobered up, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He tried to hide the explosives in his hand, but found there was nowhere to hide them. Facing Gaussfu's questioning gaze, he stammered, "N-nothing... I, I just came to work."
After saying this, Tato suddenly realized how illogical it was for him to be here at night, as he never worked the night shift or overtime.
Once his lie was exposed, the angry workers might beat him up badly. Gaussfu looked at him, his eyes filled with complex emotions, as if silently telling him how absurd his excuse was.
It's over.
Just as Tato closed his eyes in despair, he only saw Gaussfu rushing towards him.
Tato suddenly felt a sense of relief, as if the revenge he had been pursuing was not the real goal. Perhaps, deep down, he just wanted to end all this, but that didn't mean he was cowardly.
Realizing this, he felt a peace he had never experienced before, and faced the impending outcome calmly.
However, things developed beyond his expectations. What Tato was waiting for was punishment, but what greeted him was a hug from Gaussfu.
Gaussfu patted him hard on the back and praised him, "Tato, you're really something, you got back on your feet so quickly, and you're here to help Mr. Xu, help the factory."
"I'm proud of you, it's great to have a brother like you," Gaussfu added, also mentioning that he had applauded when he saw Tato accidentally fall into the toilet yesterday.
"I'm sorry, Tato, if you're angry, just hit me!"
