Scholars in the courtyard

In the afternoon, the west wind gradually picked up.

The grass clippings are blowing in the wind. On the flat land, the wind blows from far away, bringing the smell of sand and soil, and then buried on the water surface, swinging up circles of different sizes, eroding each other under the action of force , assimilate each other.

Everyone stayed here for a long time. Zhang Laodao came out just to breathe the outdoor air. As for Chen Chonghan, he wanted to come and experience it, which was the same everywhere.

Of course, it's okay if you're not hungry.

The other two soldiers were still vigilant about their surroundings. Their task was very arduous, which was to keep an eye on these people so that nothing could go wrong.

So now I spend most of my time waiting for Yang Xiaotao, the persistent fisherman by the puddle.

Sometimes, Zhang Laodao feels that all young people today are so leisurely?

Or is it that life in Sijiucheng is no longer stressful?

Shouldn't we be thinking about struggling, fighting hard, and dedicating our youth to the country?

I don’t understand. Regarding Yang Xiaotao, Zhang Laodao was confused.

All I can say is that there are too many contradictions in this man.

The contradiction between working hard and enjoying life, the contradiction between being lazy and having some big feelings, the contradiction between being young but occasionally being too mature.

The conflict between smart people and fools.

hehe

Zhang Laodao didn't know why he thought of these questions.

Perhaps the people who come here are themselves contradictory.

A few people leisurely enjoyed the comfort of the wind, gradually feeling cool, and gradually lost their patience.

However, just when Zhang Laodao and Chen Chonghan were about to ask Yang Xiaotao to leave, a miraculous scene happened.

Yang Xiaotao, who had been sitting quietly for most of the day, suddenly shouted, and then he saw Yang Xiaotao's fishing rod raised back, and a fish, a foot-long fish flew out of the water, still shaking its tail in mid-air.

Then it fell into the grass with a splat, and it jumped up and down, trying to escape into the water.

The next second, Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and pressed him, then raised his hand, "Old Taoist priest, there is a fish!"

"I go!"

The old man pulled off two strands of his beard, then stood up and ran down.

"Quick, catch him, don't kill him."

"Keep him alive and take him back."

After a while, Zhang Laodao and Chen Chonghan stood behind Yang Xiaotao and carefully looked at the fish in their hands.

This fish has a blue-gray back, a white belly, and a light red tail fin.

The fish head is tapered, the mouth is pointed and thin, the lips are underdeveloped, and there are whiskers more than 1 cm long on both sides.

None of the three people recognized what kind of fish it was, but as long as it was a fish, it would be fine as long as it was edible.

After catching the first fish, Yang Xiaotao also felt the news from Xiaowei that there were still fish below.

Originally, I came out this time just to try my luck, and asked Xiaowei to help me search under the water.

But it's November now, and even the plants in the water have only their roots left, which is still a bit difficult for Xiaowei.

So, after entering the water for a long time, the fish under the water were awakened and driven out one by one.

Next is the time for Yang Xiaotao to show off his fishing skills.

The fish that was disturbed by Xiaowei were hungry, so of course they would not let go of the bait when they saw it.

So, the fish just now was thrown up.

After putting the fish down, Yang Xiaotao stood next to the puddle again, hung the prepared steamed bun slices on the fishhook, threw them into the water, and then squatted aside to wait.

"Moved."

"Do not talk."

"Oh, hurry up, I'm coming."

"Go aside~~"

"Come out, this one is bigger, hurry up, hold it down."

"It's straw rope, hurry up and string it up"

49 cities

Steel rolling mill, gate.

Yang Youning and Chen Gong stood at the door. They had been waiting here for more than an hour. Seeing that the meal was over and no one came, they couldn't help it.

The chief section chiefs behind him all stood in the sun and waited.

No one spoke, and the scene was quiet.

The people in the security department around him stood up straight, not squinting.

"Lao Yang, Wang Fuhan is not easy to get along with!"

Chen Gong whispered, and Yang Youning nodded slightly.

This time a life was lost in the steel rolling mill, and it was their unshirkable responsibility as leaders.

As a result, both of them were punished with demerits.

Of course, this formal warning had an impact on the two of them, but there was nothing to be afraid of.

However, along with the punishment, there were also personnel changes in the steel rolling mill.

The most direct thing is to fill the gap left by Liu Huaimin's departure and bring in a new secretary.

This man's name is Wang Fuhan.

They all hang out in Sijiu City. After the order was given, Yang Youning learned about this person through the connections behind his back.

It was after knowing that Chen Gong said that this person was not easy to get along with.

Wang Fuhan was previously the deputy director of the Shanghai Machinery Manufacturing Bureau. Because of his outstanding performance, he was specially promoted to Sijiucheng this time.

Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with this kind of promotion.

But Wang Fuhan is not a simple person. He knows many people in Shanghai. However, Shanghai and Forty-Nine City are important cities in the north and south respectively. The economic situation of Forty-Nine City is not as good as that of Shanghai.

Wang Fuhan came to Sijiu City this time just to bring some people into Sijiu City.

"Let the water be blocked by the earth!"

Yang Youning replied, and then his eyes became sharp again, "We are not made of clay!"

Chen Gong nodded.

In the back, Sun Guo and Wang Guodong held cigarette butts.

"Old Sun, this new guy is clearly showing off his power."

Wang Guodong puffed out a puff of cigarette smoke, "It's been more than an hour since I got off the train, and it's time to walk over."

"Just say a few words. I didn't see the two people in front of me being upset."

Sun Guo said impatiently.

Suddenly, someone saw a jeep coming in front, and everyone became nervous.

"coming."

After saying that, he put the cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it into a puddle, "Old Wang, please watch your face carefully later."

"You don't need to tell me."

The two stood and waited with Yang Youning.

The jeep parked slowly at the gate of the steel rolling mill, and one person got on and off the co-pilot.

This man was only 1.65 meters tall, with a thin face. His face was already small, and his big nose took up one-third of his face, which made him look very funny.

This man got out of the car and stood in front of a group of big northern men who were generally over 1.7 to 8 meters tall. He looked even smaller.

Even so, the man still straightened his back, looked solemn, glanced at the people present, then quickly turned around and opened the car door at the back.

Not long after, a person stepped out, and then a middle-aged man wearing a gray tunic suit walked down.

This man has a square face, three wrinkles on his forehead, short hair and a black beard, big eyes, double eyelids, and a majestic look in his eyes.

Standing in front of the car, the two of them were about the same height, but they gave the impression that they were very different.

Seeing everyone in the steel rolling mill coming to welcome him, Wang Fuhan nodded involuntarily.

Yang Youning knew that this was the new secretary of the steel rolling mill, and immediately led everyone to greet him.

"Secretary Wang, it's been a hard journey."

Yang Youning showed a kind smile, Wang Fuhan just nodded slightly, glanced at Yang Youning and Chen Gong, and then glanced at the people behind him, before reaching out and shaking hands with Yang Youning.

Yang Youning frowned but didn't pay attention, "This is Chen Gong, Deputy Director Chen."

"Welcome, Secretary Wang."

Wang Fuhan nodded without saying anything, and the two simply shook hands.

Chen Gong stood aside and snorted in his heart.

The one who comes is not kind.

"This is Zhao Chuanjun from the Security Section. Section Chief Zhao."

Wang Fuhan looked up at Zhao Chuanjun, who was about 1.8 meters tall, and nodded lightly.

Zhao Chuanjun is not a good-tempered person to begin with. Besides, although their security department is under the name of the steel rolling mill, it is not only responsible for the security of the steel rolling mill. It can be said that they can manage all matters related to the steel rolling mill. They have great powers and are all real powers. .

So he didn't care at all about the changes in the rolling mill.

Seeing the new secretary's appearance, he didn't bother to show off. He shook hands and stood aside.

Yang Youning introduced them one by one, and everyone had met and got to know the new Secretary Wang.

A very dignified person.

When we meet and talk, we just say "hmm" or "hmm".

All thoughtful people looked at Yang Youning and Chen Gong. Their expressions were extraordinary.

After the introductions were completed, Yang Youning said with a smile, "Secretary Wang, it's been a hard journey, let's go have a meal first."

"Not urgent!"

Wang Fuhan said two words, then stood in front of the people, glanced around, and cleared his throat.

"Good afternoon everyone, I am Wang Fuhan, the secretary of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill."

"I was appointed here by my superiors this time to reverse some unhealthy trends in the factory and make the steel rolling mill the backbone of national construction."

At the gate of the steel rolling mill, the words of the newly appointed Secretary Wang shocked everyone present.

The faces of Yang Youning and others became increasingly ugly.

What do you mean by saying that the atmosphere of the steel rolling mill is unhealthy before you even enter the gate?

Evil tendencies? Or harboring dirt?

Not only Yang Youning and others frowned, but also the chief section chief below also turned cold.

They know best what a steel rolling mill has been like in recent years.

In particular, the development of new industries has benefited workers in steel rolling mills. Their lives have improved. With family harmony, they are more motivated to work.

Now that a new secretary has arrived, he starts by saying that the atmosphere in the steel rolling mill is unhealthy. Could it be that all these efforts have been in vain?

"I know some comrades who work diligently, but in life, leave the revolutionary spirit of hardship and simplicity behind and start enjoying material life..."

Wang Fuhan began to lecture in front of everyone, and Yang Youning almost exploded with anger.

However, as the top leader of the steel rolling mill, at this gate, no matter how hard it is to hear at this time, we must continue to listen.

Wang Fuhan talked at the gate for half an hour, and then saw everyone lowering their heads, feeling satisfied.

"It seems that comrades are all aware of the problem, and what I said has touched the hearts of some people."

"I won't say much more. I hope that in the future work, we will actively improve and make corrections if there are any mistakes. There is no blame for it!"

"In order for the steel rolling mill to better contribute to the country and benefit the people, let's work together."

"good."

The big-nosed man next to him immediately applauded and clapped after Wang Fuhan finished speaking.

bang bang bang

A monotonous voice sounded, but the surroundings were quiet.

Bang bang... bang...

The big-nosed face was embarrassed, and the strength in his hands gradually weakened, and then he was at a loss.

Not only him, but also Wang Fuhan also looked shocked. What is going on?

Didn't you make it clear just now? Didn’t you explain the problem of the steel rolling mill clearly? Shouldn’t it be filled with revolutionary passion?

What's going on?

It was quiet.

Anger stuck in his chest.

His eyes were full of disappointment.

Everyone in the steel rolling mill has not realized their mistake.

Sure enough, the revolutionary enthusiasm of this leadership has been tempered by prosperity and stability.

This steel rolling mill needs people full of revolutionary enthusiasm like him to bring order to the chaos.

Wang Fuhan regained his confidence and raised his head to face the people in the steel rolling mill.

bang bang

bang bang bang

The sound suddenly sounded.

Wang Fuhan looked over and saw that it was Yang Youning who was smiling and clapping his hands. The form looked like he was applauding, but he felt that the rhythm was not as passionate as when he applauded.

Kind of like making a beat.

bang bang bang

As Yang Youning's applause rang out, people around him applauded one after another.

Gradually, the entire steel rolling mill door burst into applause.

Big Nose was a little embarrassed and didn’t know whether he should applaud at this time.

Wang Fuhan looked at the sudden and neat applause, and looked at Yang Youning who was still lining up his hands, with a flash of sarcasm in his eyes.

After so many years of struggle experience, he still can't figure out this little trick?

Isn't this just a way to demonstrate to him?

Will he be afraid?

More than people, more workers or more officials?

snort.

childish.
