1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

Fang Zhiyong came with joy, and left with a belly full of worries and a head full of question marks.

It must be said that the pie that Chen Tiezhu painted for Fang Zhiyong and Han Zhenwen today was indeed a bit too big, so big that both of them could not bear it.

Especially Han Zhenwen, after suffering a blow from Chen Tiezhu today, he began to doubt himself.

I always think I am quite capable and the protagonist in life. What about the reality? It's really not that good.

Chen Tiezhu didn't care what he thought. He processed the roe deer and soaked the meat in space water. He took Doudou, Goushengzi and Xiao Mihudan to the town.

He couldn't just sit there like nothing happened. He also had an important mission. No matter what He Chengmin thought, he had to help him for the sake of Uncle Jianguo.

And seeing his jeep driving into the yard through the window, Doudou led Goushengzi and Xiao Mihudan to jump down, Han Xiuying was suddenly very nervous.

This guy is the best at doing things. What if he touches me here?

Can I defend myself?

"Why are you so serious?"

Chen Tiezhu asked in confusion as he walked into the office.

"What are you doing here? I warn you, this is a workplace." Han Xiuying stared at him and said.

"I'm here to see Mayor Ma. Doudou, play with Sister Yingzi first. When we get off work, we'll go home together." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Yeah."

The little guy nodded obediently, and then moved closer to Han Xiuying.

Han Xiuying felt a little relieved, but then a little depressed. What was she afraid of?

Chen Tiezhu didn't think much about it, and went straight to the door of Ma Zhanhua's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in"

Ma Zhanhua's loud voice came over.

"Mayor Ma, I came uninvited. I hope I didn't disturb your work." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile as he opened the door.

"Hahaha, Xiao Chen, you're just in time. I heard from Deputy Mayor Han that mushrooms are growing very well now? Is the company in good shape?" Ma Zhanhua waved his hand happily.

"We have to thank Mayor Ma for his support, otherwise how could these procedures be handled so quickly." Chen Tiezhu said.

"The mushrooms are growing very well indeed. Professor Xu spends a lot of time in the mushroom house every day. Professionals are different, and I save a lot of worry."

"That's good, that's good. Do you want to smoke? Let's have a good chat." Ma Zhanhua took out a cigarette and asked.

"Thank you, Mayor Ma. I really can't smoke, but I can drink a little. I don't know what the town thinks of my contracting land in the forest farm? I asked Yingzi, but he didn't tell me. He wanted to distinguish between public and private matters." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Hahahaha..., that's right. Although Deputy Mayor Han is young, he is very motivated and responsible in his work." Ma Zhanhua laughed again.

"To be honest, I was very emotional when the leader arranged for Deputy Mayor Han to come here. But the contact over the past few days has also given me a new understanding."

"He is not the kind of person who wants to get some achievements and leave, but someone who really does things. Our grassroots units are short of such comrades."

"In principle, I agree with your contracting plan, and it has also been discussed and passed at the town committee. If those wastelands can be utilized, it can also generate income for the forest farm."

"And to be more specific, you are also taking another path. If you can still do it, it will also point the way for the farmers in our town. If you can't figure it out yourself, can't you just follow and learn?"

"Mayor Ma, you can rest assured about this. I dare not say that I have the idea of ​​serving the people wholeheartedly, but if I can make money, I really don't mind everyone learning from me." Chen Tiezhu said seriously.

Hearing his words, Ma Zhanhua was stunned for a moment, and exhaled a puff of smoke, "You are honest, just say what you think."

If it were someone else, they would always say some high-sounding words to gain their favor. But this Chen Tiezhu just spoke out his true thoughts directly.

Interesting.

"Mayor Ma, I am not lying in front of the real person." Chen Tiezhu said.

"If I don't want to make money and live a better life, why would I do all these things? I don't have any money in my pocket, so I can't help others even if I want to."

"If I can make some money while helping others, then my efforts will not be in vain. Helping others is not just empty talk, you have to do it within your ability."

Ma Zhanhua nodded, "What you said makes sense, so I have always been very cautious about the poverty alleviation projects in the county."

"I am afraid that some comrades will get excited and do everything. In the end, they will create new holes. It will make the originally not very prosperous life even worse.. "

"Farmers' lives are not easy, and they cannot withstand too much wind and waves. I would rather see that everyone's life can be long-lasting and stable. "

Chen Tiezhu gave a thumbs up, "Should I say it or not, you also make me look at you with new eyes. Others are waiting for results and don't care about anything, but you can think so much. "

"Hahahaha..., you are the first person to praise me like this." Ma Zhanhua was amused by him.

"You should praise me, because what you said is very real." Chen Tiezhu said.

"There is another thing I need to trouble you..."

"Is it He Chengmin's work arrangement?" Ma Zhanhua interrupted him with a smile on his face.

"I really don't know what to say." Chen Tiezhu said with emotion.

"Deputy Mayor Han asked me about the situation once, and I asked a little bit, and then I knew that he was the son of your village chief Jianguo." Ma Zhanhua said.

"This matter is actually not a big deal. But I have a requirement. He must be competent in his new job. "

"When he came back, I planned to use him. After all, he is educated, unlike me who is a rough man. But he is not a good person and his work is not good enough. "

"Can these tasks be handled by one person? Without the help of comrades, can you do it? By the time you finish your work, it will be too late. "

"Don't worry, leader, I have also told Uncle Jianguo about this. In fact, I think your arrangement is very good. It will help his future growth if you put pressure on him." Chen Tiezhu said.

"But you have to help watch him and train him to be a good comrade who can do things, know how to do things, and do practical things. Including Yingzi, she is very young. No matter how capable she is, how much experience does she have? "

"By the way, there is one more thing. My mushrooms have achieved great success in the first stage. You said earlier that you would treat me to a drink. Why not choose a day? You can get two bottles of wine and come to my house to drink today?"

"What? Hahahaha..., OK, OK, I'll buy some wine."

Ma Zhanhua was stunned for a moment, and was amused by his words again.

He felt that Chen Tiezhu was just to his liking, and he didn't talk in so many roundabout ways, so it was comfortable to listen to.

And the hearty laughter that broke out from time to time in this office also scared everyone working here.

This situation has never happened before.

What happened?

Han Xiuying could guess a little, it must be that guy who was treating people differently.

Otherwise, how could Mayor Ma laugh so happily?
