At this moment, Director Guo's face was not looking good. "Xiao Zhang, tell me what's going on?"
Director Xiao Zhang immediately recounted the story.
Only then did Lin Xiaoyue realize that it was completely different from what she had planned.
She clearly asked Guan Ping to identify Ning Xi, and the agreed mark was the burn on her buttocks, so how come it became her own black mole?
She suddenly thought of a possibility and pointed at Ning Xi and Guan Ping and said loudly, "Director, they are working together to frame me!"
Guan Ping complained bitterly, "Captain, I'm innocent. I don't even know this Ning Xi. I drank too much last night and only remembered her name. Isn't this a misunderstanding—"
Guo Changchang: "Alright, I already know what happened. I don't care what your purpose is in wanting to frame Comrade Ning Xi. As long as I'm here, I won't let you succeed.
We haven't even entertained you yet, but trouble has already come up. We don't have this kind of hospitality here!"
"Xiao Zhang, take someone and take them away."
"Besides! I don't want to hear this get out.
If anyone were to make me aware of this, it would be an attempt to undermine the friendly relationship between our farm and the expedition team, and to make me, the farm manager, disobey the instructions of my superiors. I would never let them off lightly."
After Guo Changchang finished speaking, everyone immediately understood what he meant. The top priority was to minimize the impact of this incident.
Because three people can make a tiger, rumors are the most hurtful. Even if the truth is obvious, after being spread by countless mouths, what is finally spread is often very different from the facts.
Everyone expressed their attitudes:
"Don't worry, Director, we'll pretend we didn't hear anything about this."
"Yes! If anyone talks nonsense outside, we will report it to you immediately--"
Guo Changchang watched this scene with satisfaction, then turned to the members of the expedition team and said, "Comrades, this happened because of our negligence. Please forgive us.
Comrade Ning Xi, on my own behalf, I express my sincerest apologies to you. I failed to properly control the staff on the field, and nearly brought you a negative impact."
Ning Xi stood up and said, "Director Guo, you're too serious. No one could have predicted something like this, but we all saw how efficient and decisive Director Guo was in resolving the issue.
With a good manager like you who is fair, just, and considerate of others, the farm will definitely get better and better!"
"Okay, okay, young comrade, you really praise me." Director Guo felt a little better.
Ruan Liping picked up the tea and said:
"Honestly, Director Guo, Xiaoxi is right. Under the leadership of a leader like you, the farm will definitely get better and better. Come on, let's use tea instead of wine to toast Director Guo!"
“And here’s to a bright future for the farm!”
"Dry!"
The lady working in the cafeteria was very perceptive and immediately handed a bowl of tea to Director Guo.
Everyone had some small emotions in their hearts due to the sudden incident, but now all of them disappeared in this cup of tea, leaving only laughter and joy.
In the evening, Comrade Xiao Zhang specifically explained to Ning Xi the results of the treatment of the two people. Guan Ping and Lin Xiaoyue would be sent to the branch study class for ideological education.
As for the fifty yuan, Guan Ping offered it as compensation to Comrade Ning Xi, hoping that she could forgive his rudeness.
"Comrade Ning Xi, don't worry, we will pay close attention to the subsequent performance of these two people."
"Okay, I believe you."
Ning Xi couldn't refuse and took the money.
The expedition team still made no progress in the next few days. Just when everyone was feeling discouraged, Xiao Zhang suddenly brought good news.
"Director Ruan, we're in a plateau area, and our agricultural resources aren't as good as yours. But I have something I'm wondering if you might be interested in."
Xiao Zhang said this out of selfish motives.
He has been accompanying the expedition team everywhere these days and admires these people from the bottom of his heart.
Although they are all leading cadres, they are not arrogant at all. They have also learned about every aspect of the farm in detail and seem to really want to help them.
It is different from those who just came to go through the motions, stayed in the headquarters every day to eat and drink, and only knew how to talk.
Ruan Liping became interested. "Hmm? Tell me about it."
"Actually, we started growing wolfberries a few years ago..."
Hu Guangrong was puzzled: "Goji berry? Isn't this a traditional Chinese medicine?"
He has looked much more haggard these days because he has been suffering from diarrhea due to the unfamiliar climate. He looks several years older, and his already small appearance has become even more unsightly.
Everyone looked at him, then silently looked away.
Xiao Zhang nodded. "Indeed, but this is a good thing. Whether you soak it in water or make soup, it's good for your health."
They are a place that produces a lot of wolfberries. I remember when I was a child, people would pick wild ones, dry them, and sell them to pharmacies in exchange for things.
Some people do this now, but they do it secretly.
Although these are all purchased and sold under unified management, the output has caught up, but the purchase amount has decreased, so they can only be distributed to each household. Now he still has a lot of them stored at home.
"If this doesn't work, we still have milk on our ranch. If the fresh milk can't be transported away, we can make dairy products."
"Goji berries? Dairy products?" Zhu Liangcai seemed to be thinking about something.
Both of these are things that their factory has never been involved in.
When it comes to dairy products, the only ones that everyone knows are milk powder and milk candy. He doesn't have the ability to make anything better than White Rabbit Milk Candy.
Wolfberry has even less to do with them.
"Brother Zhang, can you tell me what the wolfberry is good for?"
'When you reach 30, you have no control over yourself. You soak wolfberries in a thermos' is a sentence that Ning Xi remembers very clearly, because she also soaks wolfberries after staying up late.
It is euphemistically called staying up late and maintaining health at the same time.
She also knew that wolfberry has the effect of nourishing the liver and kidneys, improving essence and improving eyesight in traditional Chinese medicine. The young leaves of wolfberry can also be used to make tea and cook!
It can be said that he is full of treasures.
But she couldn't say that.
Xiao Zhang narrowed his eyes and said, "Comrades, you may not know this, but wolfberry is very beneficial to gay men. The older generation said it has the effect of nourishing the kidneys."
When it comes to kidney nourishment, all the men present are delighted.
Ning Xi saw this scene and thought to herself that as expected, anything related to "kidney nourishment" has an irresistible appeal to gay men.
She jokingly said, "It seems that this thing is really good. Uncle Zhu needs to think carefully about how to connect this soup-making and soaking thing with eating."
Zhu Liangcai, who was about to pull out all his hair, joked, "Xiaoxi, you have a quick mind, so why don't you help me think about it?"
"Hahaha, Brother Liangcai, aren't you embarrassing Comrade Xiaoxi? He's so young, and he's not from your factory, how could he have come up with that?"
"Don't laugh at him. I think Director Zhu came here with a mission. He must be very anxious because he can't finish it!"
Ning Xi had lived in modern society after all and had seen a lot. Seeing Zhu Liangcai in such a dilemma, she thought she might be able to provide him with some ideas, so she took the initiative to speak:
"Uncle Zhu, I do have a few ideas."
"Oh? Then tell me about it." Zhu Liangcai replied casually.
