Ya Nei of Rebirth

Liao Qingkai's words inspired Yan Yucheng even more than Liu Jincai.

Liu Jincai changed from a technical cadre to an administrative cadre not long ago, and he still retains the good habit of reading books. Yan Yu's achievements are different. Although he has a higher education than his father, he has been a grassroots leader for many years. He is used to being in power.

Yes, during this suspension of reflection, I suddenly became idle and almost drove myself crazy.

But Liu Jun never imagined that Yan Yucheng could come up with such an idea - to go fishing in the cold weather!

Liu Jun almost fell down when he saw Yan Yucheng sitting quietly on the edge of the reservoir wearing a raincoat over his military coat, a bamboo hat on his head, and a fishing rod in his hand.

After Liu Jincai heard what his son conveyed to Liao Qingkai, his first reaction was to find Yan Yucheng.

If Liu Jincai and Yan Yucheng were more or less separate from each other before, then since the publication of "On Seeking Truth from Facts", there is no longer any obstacle and they are one and the same.

Liu Jun didn't know whether such a close relationship would have any adverse effects on their future careers. Liu Jun had no personal experience with officialdom. He only learned more or less about officialdom through novels and TV. They all seemed to talk about officialdom.

There are no eternal enemies and no eternal friends, only eternal interests. But Liu Jun really hopes that they can break this pattern.

No matter what a person does in this life, even if he is considered to be the most noble and rich in the world, if he does not have friends, it is really impossible to talk about happiness.

Yan Yucheng understands the overall situation and is very responsible. You can rest assured to be friends with such a person.

"Uncle Yan, do you know how to fish?"

Liu Jun couldn't help shouting.

Yan Yucheng turned his head and smiled slightly: "I don't understand, do you understand again?"

Liu Jincai was walking in front, but he didn't seem to see him.

With their relationship, there really is no need for any politeness.

Liu Jun looked into the small bucket next to him. As expected, half a bucket of water was clean. Not to mention fish, not even a shrimp could be seen.

"Alas..." Liu Jun sighed like a little adult and said: "If the temperature is too high or too low, the fish will not eat. It is very cold and hot, so it is better to be quiet and not to move. This kind of weather is really not a good day for fishing.

"

"Who said I was fishing? What I was fishing for was snow!"

Haha, "A man with a coir raincoat hat alone in a boat, fishing alone in the snow in the cold river."

It is really unexpected that Director Yan Da is so elegant.

Liu Jun said naturally: "Uncle's temperament is too strong, fishing is quite good at resolving impetuousness. In officialdom, sometimes you really can't be in a hurry."

I regret it after saying it.

Although they no longer regard themselves as ordinary young people, these few words are still too old-fashioned. Even old people who have been immersed in officialdom for decades may not be able to understand it.

"You, you, you..."

Yan Yucheng pointed at Liu Jun, with an expression as if he had seen a ghost. A sneak peek at Liu Jincai's face didn't look much better. Fortunately, after experiencing it a few more times, Liu Jun had gradually figured out a set of countermeasures. That was to distract.

, consider him right and left.

"Uncle Yan, Liao Qingkai wants me to bring you something."

"Liao Qingkai, which Liao Qingkai?"

It’s no wonder, who can connect the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Deputy Director of the Provincial Revolutionary Committee with a primary school student in Xiangyang County?

Liu Jun shook his head repeatedly and clucked his tongue: "Uncle Yan, you are not politically sensitive enough. Does our province N have a second deputy director of the Provincial Revolutionary Committee named Liao Qingkai?"

With a "click", the fishing rod fell to the ground, and Yan Yucheng stood up with a "hoo", looking strange.

"Liao Qing has come to Xiangyang County? What does he want to convey to me? Xiaojun, tell your uncle quickly..."

Liu Jun smiled and stepped aside.

It is more appropriate to let dad retell his "great achievements". Don't do too many things like "a mouse climbs on the scale and claims to praise himself".

Liu Jincai briefly and comprehensively recounted what his son did in the third mining area of ​​Qiyi Coal Mine. He only briefly touched on the matter of repairing the motor and focused on the content of the conversation with Liao Qingkai.

But Yan Yucheng showed the extremely curious side of his character at this time. He actually put Liao Qingkai aside and stared directly at Liu Jun: "Have you repaired the motor of Qiyi Coal Mine?"

Liu Jun didn't expect him to be so gossipy, so he had to answer simply: "It's just that the base is loose, and the bearings have been severely worn for a long time, and they will burn out over time. It's a very simple problem, and it doesn't take much to repair. It's quite profitable."

I bought some cigarettes, wine, and candies. As for the cigarettes, my dad brought you a few packs. The meat and biscuits have been eaten, and the wine is reserved for you and Uncle Zhou. It won’t be too late for you to go to Liujiashan to drink when you have time."

Yan Yucheng shook his head: "Look what you kid can do!"

Liu Jincai was proud of his son's ability, but he didn't stop Yan Yucheng from gossiping. He even added fuel to the flames: "Even I didn't expect that after teaching him the principles of electrical engineering for a few days, he would dare to repair a motor."

Yan Yucheng's eyes widened: "Where are the cigarettes? Bring them here."

With this attitude, it seems that the old Liu family owes him something. This man is quite thick-skinned.

Liu Jincai chuckled and handed over a few packages of "Flying Pigeons".

"Good guy, you are quite good at making money at such a young age. When you grow up, you will become a big capitalist, right?"

"Never mind the capitalists, let's first talk about what Liao Qingkai means?"

Liu Jincai was a little unsure whether Liao Qingkai was just talking for a moment or had other intentions. In terms of official experience, he was far behind Yan Yucheng.

Yan Yucheng narrowed his eyes: "Liao Qingkai's meaning is very simple. This matter has not been finalized yet."

"How to say?"

"The province didn't know about Wang Benqing's punishment of us. At least not all the big bosses in the province knew about it. I guess it was Wang Benqing who made the suggestion, regional Zhou Peiming expressed his support, and then privately asked a certain leader in the province for instructions, and then he made the decision

I have made the decision to suspend my duties and reflect.”

This analysis coincides with Liu Jun's analysis.

Yan Yucheng showed a pensive expression on his face and said slowly: "This suspension of duty for reflection is also very interesting. To put it nicely, it means that you can advance, attack, retreat and defend. To put it poorly, it means that you have the ability to adjust to the wind.

road."

When talking about these things, all his shrewdness and wisdom came back.

"Catch the wind?"

Liu Jincai was a little puzzled.

"That's right. Once the wind direction changes, they can just say to resume our work. Not to mention there will be no consequences, at least it will be no big deal. Even if the facts prove that our point of view is correct, at least one of the 'unorganized and undisciplined'

The crime is still worthy of being punished. It cannot be said that the punishment was wrong."

After hearing this analysis, not to mention Liu Jincai, even Liu Jun was deeply impressed. There are indeed many twists and turns in the officialdom.

"So, Jin Cai, don't worry. Just study and rest at home and have a good New Year. When we resume work will depend on when the wind direction changes."

…

Yan Yucheng's words were very supportive to Liu Jincai, and he felt much more at ease after returning home. In addition to reading, he often visited the homes of several brigade branch secretaries and brigade captains nearby. This would have been unimaginable in Liu Jun's previous life.

Liu Jincai really doesn't like to visit people. He is a technician, and he is not gossipy by nature. The job of visiting people is really not suitable for him. Now he has changed his career to administration, which has changed his temperament. Although he is currently suspended from work for self-reflection, he may be able to get the job one day.

Just a piece of paper, what happened again? Keeping in touch with the brigade cadres more will also help with future work. Liu Jincai used to have a very good reputation, and he was a celebrity from all over the country.

passion for him.

On the twenty-first day of the twelfth lunar month, an unexpected guest came to visit me.

The uninvited guest was mine director Zhang from the Qiyi Coal Mine. He came not alone, but also brought a small gas truck with him, which was full of coal.

Liu Jun is not a car enthusiast, but that GAZ 51 still made my heart move. It is a very cool car, and it is very similar to the "old Jiefang", but it is smaller. In fact, FAW's Jiefang brand medium-sized truck

, is the imitation GAZ 51. The GAZ car has sufficient horsepower and strong climbing performance, which is quite suitable for hilly areas like Xiangyang County. However, with the rise of domestically produced mid-sized trucks, in the late 1980s, it was difficult to see it again.

The presence of gas carts has been reduced. However, in 1978, gas carts could still be seen frequently.

Liu Jun stared at the Gas car with great interest. Mine manager Zhang just thought it was a country boy who was curious about cars, and felt some comfort in his heart - Liu Jincai's son, after all, still has the side of an ordinary child.

.Or he is too sophisticated. My own child is eleven or twelve years old. Compared with him, he is just like a baby.

Naturally, this was just Liu Jun's guess, but Mine Manager Zhang didn't show any of it, with a smile on his face and greeted Liu Jun as if he were an old acquaintance of the same age.

"Master Xiao Liu, is Teacher Liu at home?"

"Ah, mine manager Zhang, what a rare visitor..."

Liu Jun also smiled and greeted him and shook hands.

The gas truck driver was from the mine. When Liu Jun showed off his talents in the third mining area, he was probably not present. When he saw mine director Zhang bending down to shake hands with Liu Jun, he looked serious. He couldn't help but rub his eyes and suspected that he had seen it wrong.

Already.

Although Lao Zhang is just a newly promoted deputy mine director, he is still a serious deputy county and regiment-level leader after all. He is not comparable to the local deputy county-level leaders with real power. He will not stoop to fawn over a child, right? Look at this young man

In a brick-and-adobe house, there wouldn't be any big shots living there.

Liu Jin just heard the noise and strode out.

"Miner Zhang..."

"Teacher Liu..."

They really knew each other. Later, Liu Jun found out that mine manager Zhang was the head of the No. 3 Mining District and was an old acquaintance with his father.

When acquaintances met, they exchanged pleasantries. Mine manager Zhang actually praised Liu Jun and gave Liu Jincai a thumbs up. Liu Jincai has a problem. He is indifferent to money. He is just greedy for fame and loves to hear flattery.

Mine manager Zhang was so talkative that he almost fooled Liu Jincai into fainting. He laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He repeatedly called for mine manager Zhang and the driver to come inside and sit down.

"Teacher Liu, if Master Xiao Liu hadn't shown off his skills, I, Lao Zhang, would have been humiliated in front of Director Liao from the province that day, haha..."

"Children are just trying their luck. Mine Manager Zhang should stop praising him."

"Teacher Liu, the Chinese New Year is about to come, and we coal black people don't have much good stuff. We just have a lot of coal. I asked people to dig out some carbon from Qianshi Mountain. I hope Teacher Liu won't dislike it."

Liu Jincai was startled. How dare he think that this car of carbon was sent to him? A gas car has at least two tons of carbon, four to five thousand kilograms. It is a big favor. He and Mine Manager Zhang are only casual acquaintances, so how can he take it seriously?

Can you afford such a big favor?

Liu Jun was also stunned by Lao Zhang. What on earth was this guy planning? Just to repair a motor? If Liu Jun was really only eight years old, he might have believed it.

"Mr. Zhang, this is impossible."

In the past, Liu Jincai would definitely have jumped up. Now that he has experienced many storms, he will not make a fuss easily.

"Oh, Teacher Liu, the carbon taken out of Qianshi Mountain didn't cost the public a penny, so why not? Xiao Li... unload the carbon..."

Mine manager Zhang worked quickly, and the driver named Xiao Li was also not slow. Without waiting for Liu Jincai to say anything, he unloaded a load of carbon onto the Shaiguping outside the house.

Liu Jincai was an open-minded person. Seeing how enthusiastic Mine Manager Zhang was, he stopped trying to dissuade him and did not say any kind words such as offering money. Because he knew that Mine Manager Zhang would not accept it no matter what, and besides, he didn’t have that kind of personality at all.

Much money.

Liu Jun looked at the coal. It was black and shiny, and it didn't look like it had been pulled out of the rocky mountains. It was simply high-quality firewood (the name for anthracite coal in Liujiashan dialect). It was a big pile, enough for his family to use for a year.

Coal miners burn coal at home, so naturally they cannot buy it with money. Most of them pay for it in the Qianshi Mountain. However, only powerful leaders like Mine Manager Zhang can pull out the entire vehicle's new carbon and give it away.

At the beginning of 1978, the trend of giving gifts was not yet popular. Mine manager Zhang had this

He is indeed a bold and generous person. Liu Jun was just surprised why he gave such a big gift to his father. Liu Jincai did not make "mistakes" and was only the deputy director of the commune, and he, the deputy county regiment level

The mine manager is several levels behind, so there is no need for him to curry favor.

After unloading the coal, mine manager Zhang said a few more polite words and stood up to say goodbye.

Liu Jincai refused to let him go, no matter what, he wanted to let him have a meal.

Mine manager Zhang was not polite, he gave in a few words and then continued to sit down and chat with Liu Jincai. Listening to the meaning of his words, he was inquiring about the relationship between the Liu family and Liao Qingkai in a roundabout way.

Liu Jun couldn't help but feel surprised and a little funny. He didn't expect that Director Liao would make such a big fuss after saying a few more words to him. Maybe he was not the only one with this mentality.

Although what Director Liao said was quite high-sounding and there was no hint of any personal intention. However, the deputy director of the Provincial Revolutionary Committee was so concerned about the deputy director of Hongqi Commune, which inevitably led to some speculation.

In the officialdom, if you only understand the problems based on the superficial meaning of the leader's words, your achievements will probably be limited. Mine manager Zhang was able to reach the deputy county regiment level in his thirties. Liu Jun didn't know what the backing was, but he must have extraordinary understanding.

No matter whether Liu Jincai had a special relationship with Liao Qingkai or not, he would not suffer much loss by sending this cart of coal.

Liu Jincai just chatted with him, said some irrelevant words, and stayed away.

It has nothing to do with it in the first place, so what if we don't avoid it?

Seeing Liu Jincai's evasive remarks, mine director Zhang showed an understanding expression and wisely stopped dwelling on the matter.

Liu Jun was secretly amused. Sometimes pretending to be mysterious can produce unexpected results. I guess my father must have learned another trick?
