Zhou Jingyun followed Secretary Chen, Director Zhou, and other high-ranking leaders to the county party committee office building for a meeting. Before leaving, he specifically instructed the Revolutionary Committee to help entertain the villagers of Jianshan Brigade.

Even though they knew the other party wanted them to arrange a meal for a group of people, they were still happy.

Zhou Jingyun, who can stand on equal footing with so many high-ranking leaders, is certainly not an ordinary person; at least, he is not someone they can afford to offend.

If you coldly reject someone's attempts to please you, then you should be worried about their retaliation.

Asking someone to help greet the villagers of Jianshan Brigade is clearly a way of giving them a chance to show off.

As long as we all behave well, the matter from this morning can be wiped clean.

Eager to clear up the misunderstanding with Zhou Jingyun, the group had barely left when the Revolutionary Committee members were already arm in arm with the Jianshan Brigade members:

"Hey bro, we've become friends after this little misunderstanding! Let's go eat out!"

"Yes, let's go out to eat. I heard that a batch of shrimp just arrived at the state-run restaurant yesterday. Let's all go and try some fresh shrimp."

...

The Revolutionary Committee members suddenly became approachable, and like good brothers, they linked arms with the people of Jianshan Brigade and walked towards the state-run restaurant.

The men of Jianshan Brigade dared not easily accept the challenge and all looked at Zhou Tiezhu, who was in charge.

After listening to the Revolutionary Committee's words, Zhou Tiezhu muttered to himself: Bicheng is inland within inland, with inconvenient transportation. Not only are seafood and similar items extremely expensive, but they are also not necessarily available.

The fact that the Revolutionary Committee was willing to treat these farmers from their own village to such rare food clearly showed their desire to make friends.

Seeing that the other party had adopted such a humble attitude, Zhou Tiezhu followed suit and invited the villagers of Jianshan Brigade to go to the state-run restaurant with the Revolutionary Committee members.

"Come on, we became friends after a misunderstanding, so we should celebrate!"

"Yes, yes, that makes sense. Brother Tiezhu is indeed worldly-wise; his words are always reasonable."

A man in a red armband was showing Zhou Tiezhu face. He had just carefully observed that this Zhou Tiezhu should be working with Zhou Jingyun.

If I befriend him, I'm sure I'll reap the benefits in the future.

The group chatted happily and headed toward the state-run restaurant.

The Revolutionary Committee adopted a very proper attitude, ordering all the best dishes from the state-run restaurant. Dozens of people filled the restaurant and enjoyed a delicious meal...

When Zhou Jingyun and the leaders returned from their meeting, everyone in Jianshan Brigade was full and burping.

Not only were they full, but each person also carried an aluminum lunchbox filled with braised pork, saying they were taking it back home for their elderly relatives to try.

In her other hand, she was carrying a pastry wrapped in oil paper, saying she was taking it home for the children to try.

Even Zhou Jingyun, who wasn't present, prepared a copy. Upon seeing this, Zhou Jingyun couldn't help but think to himself: No wonder they were able to sneak into the Revolutionary Committee when things were going well; they're all quite shrewd and know how to get things done.

He didn't use the leaders' influence to retaliate against the Revolutionary Committee today because he wanted to do them a favor, thinking that they might be useful in the future.

Besides, even if he doesn't retaliate, according to the higher-ups, this Revolutionary Committee probably won't last long.

When the Revolutionary Committee is dissolved, there will be plenty of people seeking revenge against it; one more won't make a difference.

He might as well keep these people around to deal with that old bastard Zhou Tiemin.

Sure enough, just as Zhou Jingyun led the Jianshan brigade into the village, the Revolutionary Committee began to devise a plan to deal with Zhou Tiemin...

"Wow, Brother Yun, you're amazing! You actually know Director Zhou from the Public Security Bureau and Secretary Chen from the County Party Committee."

"It's not that they know each other. Judging from the way Brother Yun was talking to them just now, they were obviously very familiar with each other. As soon as Brother Yun got into trouble, before he even entered the Revolutionary Committee, these high-ranking leaders came to help and support him!"

"Tsk tsk, Brother Yun, you're really something. Don't forget your brother when you're a kid. We used to pee and play in the mud together..."

"Go away, go away, get out of here..."

Hearing the surrounding people praising Zhou Jingyun, Zhou Tiezhu felt a little annoyed: it was bad enough that there was Gou Dan competing with him for favor, but now there were so many more people competing with him for Brother Yun!

Sigh, Brother Yun is just too outstanding, which has attracted so many people to his attention!

Ignoring Zhou Tiezhu's gloomy face, a group of people surrounded Zhou Jingyun, showering him with flattery, all hoping to make a good living by following Zhou Jingyun.

And so, the group of people walked on, chattering away. Halfway there, they happened to run into the brigade leader, Zhou Jianguo, who was leading a group of old men in their forties and fifties toward the county town.

The elders in these families became increasingly worried, fearing that their children might act impulsively and fight with the Revolutionary Committee members, and also that Zhou Jingyun might suffer at the hands of the Revolutionary Committee members. They couldn't sit still and followed behind.

Seeing their child walking back behind Zhou Jingyun from afar, everyone felt as if the sky had fallen:

Did these kids wipe out the Revolutionary Committee and snatch Zhou Jingyun back?

Good heavens, so young and impetuous!

How impetuous of youth!

These old folks were gone for just a short while, and these kids have caused such a huge mess.

Making a scene in the village is one thing, but how dare they take it all the way to the county town?

Oh well, oh well, the law doesn't punish everyone. If the whole village unites, the higher-ups will probably give a lenient sentence!

A group of older men were filled with mixed emotions, but the children opposite them seemed quite happy.

Upon seeing Zhou Jianguo and the others, they immediately greeted them:

"Oh, Captain, are you here to pick up Brother Yun too?"

"Dad, you have no idea how awesome I am today! I met the head of the Public Security Bureau and the county party secretary! Ahhhhh!!!"

"Dad, let me tell you, the county party secretary shook hands with me. When we get back, don't make me wash my hands. My hands have been shaken by the secretary and have been tainted with his official aura. I can't just wash them off easily."

"Dad, Director Zhang of the Public Security Bureau praised me for being strong and a good candidate to protect our country. You must help me find connections to get me into the army."

"Forget it, Dad, you're incompetent. I'll go ask Brother Yun for help."

...

A group of old men were completely bewildered by the children's words: Have these kids gone mad?

However, after they learned what had happened today from the children, they all couldn't help but shout along.

He looks like he's gone mad.

Zhou Jianguo's eyes were red, and he kept glancing at Zhou Jingyun, his heart choked with emotion: "Our ancestors have shown us their power! Our Jianshan Brigade has finally produced a capable young man."

Although he didn't know exactly what Zhou Jingyun did, judging from the attitude of those high-ranking leaders, he guessed that he must be someone extraordinary.

"What's wrong?

What's wrong?

Has something happened to Yunwazi?

...

Hearing their noisy sons and men return, the women waiting at the village entrance rushed forward and asked what was wrong.
