Chapter 278: The "Big Market" in the Mountains
When Gu Yuehuai arrived at the breeding office, he heard Cui Hejie arguing in the office.
"Secretary, those educated youth from Beijing have never suffered any hardship. Do you think it's appropriate for them to give up living in the educated youth camp and eat and live in the homes of members? How can living under someone else's roof be as comfortable as living on your own?"
"No matter how difficult the situation is, the team can always squeeze out some money to repair the house first, right?"
"Secretary, I am the guide of the educated youth. If you do not agree to allocate funds to repair the educated youth site, then I can only go back to the county to talk to the leaders. Then it will be embarrassing for us. You have to know that the higher-ups pay close attention to these educated youth from Beijing. Which one of them is not very famous? As the host, we really can't treat them unfairly!"
Gu Yuehuai sneered repeatedly. It seemed that Director Huang had already told the branch secretary about her idea, and the branch secretary agreed.
The only ones who disagreed were Cui Hejie and that group of second-generation educated youth.
Wang Fu's face turned red after hearing what Cui Hejie said, but he didn't know how to refute. This was the sadness of a small person. He kept saying that he would go to the county to file a complaint, but he was just a small brigade secretary, how could he win?
Wang Peisheng sighed and said, "Guide Cui, let's talk it over nicely. There's no need to make the situation so serious."
Cui Hejie's patience was obviously worn out: "I just want to ask one question, can you provide funds to repair the educated youth site?"
His purpose of coming here was to build good relationships with the educated youth, but if everyone lived in the members' homes, how could he, relying on the friendship of eating and living together with them, shamelessly ask them for help when the educated youth returned to the city?
With this kind of cognition, it doesn’t matter if you offend people. They are just a bunch of country people, so what can they do?
After hearing Cui Hejie's impolite words, Wang Fu and Wang Peisheng's faces darkened, and the two sides became somewhat tense.
At this time, the door of the breeding office was pushed open and Gu Yuehuai walked in.
Her expression was indifferent, but her tone was sharp: "Guide Cui is really so arrogant. He always talks about the educated youth from Beijing. What? Are the educated youth from Beijing superior? You must have forgotten that mobilizing urban educated youth to go to the countryside is a basic policy. The country's goal is to let them temper themselves in the storms and waves. It is revolutionary!"
"If you want to enjoy life, why go to the countryside?"
"Your behavior will make Song Zhiqing and his companions ashamed to face people when they return to the city. Our new society does not advocate using power to oppress others. If you have no money, you have no money. If you don't want to live in a member's home, then leave the Dalaozi Production Brigade!"
"Since you look down on us country folk and feel that you are superior and unworthy of living with us, then leave immediately."
As Gu Yuehuai spoke, he stared at Cui Hejie coldly, with a chill flowing in his indifferent voice.
The charges of despising farmers, abusing power to oppress others, etc., made Cui Hejie's face turn pale and his legs began to go weak.
He has never felt that there is anything wrong with the educated youth from Beijing being superior to others. They are the children of the group of people who are now at the top of power, so naturally they speak and act differently from ordinary people like them.
Even he had to humble himself in front of the educated youth from Beijing, let alone these ignorant country people.
But Gu Yuehuai's words made him terrified. With such a big hat on his head, if someone really investigated it carefully, even his father-in-law Zhu Feng would not be able to save him. What a Gu Yuehuai! He deserves to be killed!
If Cui Hejie was frightened, then Wang Fu and Wang Peisheng were very happy.
The two had just been bullied by Cui Hejie and almost couldn't bear it, so they agreed to invest. However, the account would be in deficit, and in this cold winter with food shortage, their team would only have a harder time.
Now, seeing that Gu Yuehuai's words made Cui Hejie's face change suddenly, he naturally felt very happy.
Cui Hejie said nothing in the end. He glanced at Gu Yuehuai coldly and turned to leave the breeding area.
He knew how good Gu Yuehuai was at talking, and he didn't want to really piss her off, otherwise, a lot of accusations would be put on her, and not only him, but even Song Jinan and Huang Sheng would probably be in trouble.
These days, the power of public opinion is extremely terrifying. It can kill people, or it can make people famous.
For example, the honor of being an outstanding member that Gu Yuehuai received this time, as long as it spreads from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred, within two days, the news that the Dalaozi Production Brigade has produced an outstanding female comrade with the official stamp of approval will spread.
Although this is just an empty title, Gu Yuehuai can get many substantial benefits with this empty title.
As soon as Cui Hejie left, the atmosphere in the office instantly eased.
"Xiao Gu, you have helped the team a lot again. Tell me, how should we thank you?"
Wang Fu looked at Gu Yuehuai with complicated eyes. He originally didn't believe in fate, but now he had to believe it. Gu Yuehuai was really the lucky star of their team. Whenever she was there, it seemed that all troubles could be solved.
Gu Yuehuai shook his head: "Why are you being so polite to me, Secretary? I am also a member of our team."
Speaking of which, this matter was caused by her taking the lead. Fortunately, it has been successfully resolved now, otherwise she would really feel embarrassed. Of course, there is no need to say this, otherwise it would be a waste of time to cause trouble for the branch secretary, right?
As for whether Cui Hejie will leave with Song Jinan and the others, that is even more nonsense.
The instructor has already signed and stamped the document, so they need to provide a legitimate reason for leaving. However, even if they really want to leave, no one will stop them. With such a group of "living ancestors", whoever wants to serve them can do so.
Wang Fu stood up and took a certificate from the desk, and handed it to Gu Yuehuai, his tone was quite proud, and he said: "Here, Xiao Gu, this is for you, keep it well, or should we hold a member meeting to commend you?"
Gu Yuehuai took the certificate, which had her name and the words "Outstanding Member" written on it, and was also stamped with the commune's official seal. Although the certificate was not valuable, it was an enviable honor in that era.
However, holding a commendation meeting just for this certificate?
Gu Yuehuai's eyelids jumped, and he said hurriedly: "No need for the branch secretary, it's not a big deal, there's no need to take up the team's resources, everyone is still waiting for the team to distribute food, the New Year is coming soon, the branch secretary should do the important things first."
Hearing this, Wang Fu sighed and nodded, "You are right, I didn't think it through."
Seeing that he had given up the idea of attending the commendation meeting, Gu Yuehuai breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't want to be in the spotlight.
Before leaving, Gu Yuehuai said, "Secretary, you should hold tight to the issue of the educated youth and let them live in the homes of the members. No matter how powerful their families are, they can't do anything about it. This is the territory of our Dalaozi Production Brigade."
Hearing these slightly childish words, both Wang Fu and Wang Peisheng laughed.
Gu Yuehuai also smiled, but when he left the breeding place, he received another good news: there was going to be a big fair in the mountains!
