Since April, the atmosphere within the Laicheng Mining Bureau has become extremely depressing.

The cause was the issue of retirement.

Laicheng Mining Bureau has a long history, but the employees who retired before were all retired in a scattered and successive manner.

It was not until last year that a whole group of employees retired en masse.

This year, a second batch of more than 40 old employees need to retire collectively.

But this involves the question of whether one will be under provincial or municipal management after retirement.

Because there are differences in retirement wages and benefits between the two.

Within the restructuring group, Tang Jianan, the group leader, suggested that there was no need to rush into personnel-related issues surrounding the separation, and that the issue should be discussed in November this year.

His meaning was very clear, which was to allow these old subordinates to retire with the same treatment as provincial employees.

But Huang Jianmin didn't give in at all!

This was probably because the leaders of the department had repeatedly told him this before he came to Laicheng.

With the separation and restructuring of the Laicheng Mining Bureau, the independent gold company needs to be well prepared.

So how could he possibly take over these batches of luggage just because of Tang Jianan's opinion?

Huang Jianmin even suggested that he would only accept employees who had retired from gold mining-related positions.

Including some old employees who had retired before, as long as they were not related to gold mining positions, he handed them over to the provincial or municipal authorities to handle.

Letting the gold company go into battle lightly was the decision and policy from the top. As the specific executor, Huang Jianmin naturally did not dare to make any changes on this point.

In his opinion, although there are differences in treatment, the newly revised treatment standards at the municipal level can also allow everyone to live a good life after retirement.

But Tang Jianan thought this was too inhumane.

He stubbornly believed that Huang Jianmin wanted to destroy the harmonious atmosphere that had existed in the Mining Bureau for decades.

The two sides were at a stalemate for a while.

No one knows who leaked the news, which not only caused panic among those who were about to retire, but also made the old employees who had retired and enjoyed provincial benefits furious.

I'm retired, and you're just treating me like a burden?!

No way!

So during this period, the office director Li Xianghong was so anxious that he had several blisters on his mouth, and people came to talk to him every day to report the situation.

Xiong Min, who was in charge of the trade union, had a splitting headache. The union hall was full of old men and women all day long, insisting that Deputy Director Xiong give a clear explanation.

There were even rumors that several windows in Deputy Director Huang Jianmin's home were broken.

Deputy Director Tan, who is in charge of security, has sent people to patrol downstairs of Deputy Director Huang's building.

It was in this tense atmosphere that Zhang Hongcheng's reports came in.

In the past, such trivial matters and haphazard handling would probably have drawn a reprimand from Director Tang.

But Zhang Hongcheng asked Pang Zhiyuan to convey a message to Deputy Director Li Xianghong at the same time when submitting the report.

"I heard rumors about our mining bureau are circulating in the surrounding cities and towns..."

Although Old Tang and Old Huang don't get along, how can family disgrace be made public?

It's just a little oil and slag.

Neighboring friendly units and residents can obtain practical benefits, and the good reputation gained belongs to the entire Mining Bureau. The specific credit also goes to Li Xianghong and Xiong Min who are in charge of external liaison. It can also create an image of unity and progress within the Mining Bureau to the outside world.

Let’s do it!

As for the report on purchasing some commodities through the supply and marketing system to supply the internal economic market and purchasing small homemade commodities from employees and their families, it shows that Zhang Hongcheng is preparing to organize an on-site event with the Internal Economic Revitalization Office.

The Economic Revitalization Office took the initiative to pay for activities to help the factory divert the attention of employees and their families. Regardless of whether this matter can be successful or not, we must strongly support it!

After Li Xianghong's explanation, Tang Jianan figured it out and suddenly felt that Xiao Zhang was a smart and capable person with a broad perspective.

As for borrowing those retired employees to help out in the market for a day or two, Zhang Hongcheng obviously had the same purpose - to give Li Xianghong and Xiong Min a chance to catch their breath.

The two bosses are in agreement and fully support it!

He even ordered the engineering team to unconditionally cooperate with Investigator Zhang's work on that day.

Faced with such a quick approval and full support from the higher-ups, Pang Zhiyuan could hardly believe his eyes.

He knew the situation inside the Mining Bureau very well. It had become so tense, so how come these leaders still had the leisure to approve such irrelevant matters?

Zhang Hongcheng worked for more than a week with the people in the office and ten new temporary workers, and spent most of the 8,000 yuan.

During this week, Zhang Hongcheng fully demonstrated to his temporary subordinates what it means to do things in a haphazard manner.

His unreliable way of doing things makes his subordinates feel nervous when spending money.

Boss, you can just walk away easily in a few months, but what if the bureau causes trouble for us then?

But no one could get the truth out of Zhang Hongcheng.

In Laicheng area, most places hold markets on the first and sixth days of the month.

In the early years, the opening time of the market was based on the lunar calendar, but in recent years, when the fourth lunar month came, it was changed to the Gregorian calendar.

Sunday, April 11, 1982.

It happened to be the day when the two towns around the Mining Bureau held a market. At the same time, the Municipal Commercial Bureau and Market Office would also hold a large market in the urban-rural fringe area about one or two miles north of the Mining Bureau headquarters.

The Xu family, who lived in a village near Longwangzhuang, got up early in the morning and pushed their carts to the town.
