Chapter 255 Attack
"This, this, this... maybe I remembered it wrongly, these numbers were reported to me by Xiao Wang...
I must have made a mistake. It's probably more than that. After all, how can you grow just a few carrots and sweet potatoes? Of course, you grow them in batches!"
Mr. Xiao was obviously a little panicked and at a loss.
"Boss Xiao, this is why you are not professional enough!
As the leader of the research department, he can't even figure out the specifics of the research results and is still led by his subordinates.
Could it be that he is too old and his power has been usurped by his subordinates?
I remember that Xiao Wang you mentioned, it seems~he is your wife's nephew!
It looks like Mr. Xiao should give up his position!" Mr. Ning said sarcastically.
“Even if I am old and confused and want to step down, President Ning cannot slander the people in our research department at will.
The base research department brings together outstanding agricultural researchers from across the province, and if they all can’t grow anything.
Humph~ Can a young man in his early twenties with no experience grow it?
Who would believe this if it were said out loud? "
Mr. Xiao started to talk about his experience and age again, trying to establish his authority with the elite persona that they have always been proud of.
"Does Mr. Xiao have any evidence of planting left here?
Like photos, or living plants, to prove that the research department has indeed grown these things?"
President Ning pointed the last sharp blade straight at President Xiao, leaving him with no way to retreat.
"Well...the research in the research department is top secret, how could there be any photos left! As for the living plants and the like..." President Xiao really couldn't find a reason this time.
President Ning laughed, "Then there is no evidence!
Mr. Xiao can say some things are confidential in front of outsiders, but how can he mention the word confidential in a meeting of our team members!
Is there any secret that even the base commander cannot tell you?"
This time, President Xiao was completely speechless. He looked at the base commander, not knowing how to respond.
Mr. Ning continued:
"Boss Xiao has no evidence to prove that the research department has ever grown these vegetables and fruits, but I have photos to prove that these materials in my hands are all produced by the young man named Le Yan!
Secretary Zhang, please send the printed photos to everyone so that they can see what kind of environment it takes to grow such beautiful vegetables and fruits!
Lest Mr. Xiao say that this is stealing the planting technology they developed!"
Secretary Zhang took the order and sent the n sets of photos that he had copied and printed from Yu Duoduo to all the leaders present for review.
There are four photos in this set.
The first one was a large group photo, capturing the entire dance floor of the bunker.
This includes five people except Yu Duoduo.
There was a big fire pot in the middle of the dance floor, wooden tables and chairs around the fire pot, and a worm-like planting shed surrounding the crowd's activity area!
The second photo is of Minan crawling in through the small door of the double-layer greenhouse to pick blueberries for everyone.
The blueberries in the back are already ripe and hanging on the branches, bending the short branches.
The third photo was when Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun helped plant sweet potatoes.
Le Yan directly planted the big sweet potatoes that Yu Duoduo brought back in coconut shell soil, saying that it would produce more delicious sweet potatoes like this!
The fourth picture was taken on the day when everyone was leaving. Le Yan reluctantly took down the double-layer greenhouse and picked various ripe fruits in the fertile coconut shell field.
Such clear pictures, such obvious planting process, and such harsh and strange planting environment.
The last photo of the harvest exactly corresponds to the supplies on the conference table in front of everyone, so no one can deny that these are the masterpieces of that young man.
As for Mr. Xiao's inconsistent and self-contradictory remarks, they can probably only fool fools.
Those of you who have climbed to your current position are all smart people, how could you not see it?
Then the head of the base spoke, "Old Xiao, you are the leader of the research department. I will give you one day. If you cannot give everyone a reasonable and satisfactory answer, I will consider replacing you.
Okay, everyone, go away, and stay in Ningbo.
Before noon tomorrow, everyone will come here for a small meeting to finish today's meeting."
The leaders left their seats and closed the door when they left.
The base commander took a sip of tea and then slowly looked towards Ningbo.
"Xiao Ning, before the meeting, Mr. Qian from the Guard Department came to see me.
It is said that you went to their dark room and showed off your might, using the power of the Logistics Department to force their captain Xiao Jin to release two prisoners. Is that true?"
Ningbo nodded, “Yes, but the person I want is the young man who grew vegetables and fruits and his girlfriend who was mentioned at the meeting today.
If I don't go and ask for the person, I'm afraid that person will be gone."
The base commander put down his teacup and frowned slightly. "Tell me, what's going on?"
President Ning told the base commander everything he had seen and heard today, causing the old man who was in charge of the base to frown even deeper.
"I thought that the future development of the base would rely on the achievements of the research department in order to survive in the long run, so I was particularly tolerant of their work. I didn't expect~ to get such a result.
How are the young man and his girlfriend doing now? Are their lives in danger?
"The Guard Department has sent a doctor to treat him, so I believe there will be nothing serious. As for your previous wish to meet these people... I'm afraid you'll have to postpone it for a while!" Ningbo said.
"It's good that everyone is okay. There are still many days to come and there will be plenty of opportunities to eat.
Didn’t you say that the brother and sister who delivered the supplies are talents worth training? We should just try to win them over.
Also, don’t be so ostentatious in your actions in the future, it will easily make people hate you!” The base commander said earnestly.
"I understand, uncle!" Ningbo said with a smile.
"By the way, come to my house for dinner tonight. Your aunt missed you and made your favorite braised pork trotter specially." said the base commander.
"Okay, I'll definitely come over tonight after I'm done with my work! I've gotten a lot of good cigarettes and good wine recently, and I was thinking of letting my uncle try some!"
"Hmph~ you kid!"
In Building 180, everyone felt a lot more relaxed with the care of the doctors from the medical team.
Le Yan and Min Nan were still not awake and couldn't eat on their own, but they were too weak to endure not eating for two days.
After applying for the doctor's request, the higher authorities granted special approval for them to receive very precious nutritional injections.
Even Tong Zi was surprised. What kind of powerful person did Yu Duoduo and the others get close to to have such great abilities!
Soon, there was a big noise on the 7th floor again.
Wang Wei's family in Room 0705 were taken away, including his elderly mother and daughter-in-law.
But the people who came were not from the base security department, but a group of guys in black uniforms.
The person was taken away and the house was turned upside down, just like Minan's house the day before.
If Yu Duoduo hadn't known that he was still at the base, he would have almost thought he was seeing a gang scene of looting and smashing.
But that has nothing to do with Yu Duoduo and the others. It is the consequences of one's own actions.
