"That's right. I was also worried about the hardship faced by everyone in the village. It was Comrade Li Miaomiao who came up with this idea. She's a very dedicated female comrade."
Zhang Degen’s principle is that if the leader praises someone, he will also praise him. It is always right to follow the leader’s footsteps.
Moreover, today's events were really thanks to Li Miaomiao, who was able to turn the situation around. Zhang Degen was grateful in his heart and admired her even more.
County Magistrate Liang was satisfied to see that Zhang Degen was not only diligent and capable in his work, but also did not compete with other female comrades for credit.
This is a good cadre who can get things done.
"Captain Zhang, you're very good. I heard some bad rumors about you before, but now it seems that they are not credible. You are still a very down-to-earth and capable cadre, and you are also considerate."
Zhang Degen broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this. He knew without even thinking that this was done by Accountant Wu in collusion with others, which gave the leaders a bad impression of him. In this case, he was not sure how long he could remain the team leader, and Accountant Wu might succeed.
He had underestimated Accountant Wu before, thinking that he had the ability to pass on the message to the county magistrate.
"Thank you, County Magistrate Liang, for the compliment. The rumors are because I didn't do a good enough job. When I went to check on the rice seedlings, I accidentally fell into a deep ditch and was seriously injured. I was hospitalized for a while. Although I arranged the work for the village, I didn't satisfy everyone in the village."
Zhang Degen didn't mention Accountant Wu at all, but only talked about his injury, which actually gave him a good impression in front of his superiors.
County Magistrate Liang nodded, and indeed he was more satisfied: "You were also injured because of the village's affairs. When working for the people, it is difficult to satisfy everyone, and some negative voices are inevitable."
"Leader, you are right. I will try my best to do better in the future. But regarding the soap workshop, do you think you can approve it?"
What Zhang Degen cares most about is the soap workshop, which is the key to his future position in the brigade.
"I think it's feasible, but it's not a small matter. I still need to discuss it with Lao Ying and go to the village to investigate and meet Comrade Li Miaomiao from your village. But you can start the preparations now."
County Magistrate Liang did not agree immediately out of caution, but as long as nothing goes wrong, there is a high probability that it will be successful.
"Hey, leaders, welcome to our village for an inspection. I'll go back and prepare and wait for the leaders to arrive."
Zhang Degen was extremely happy, but Zhang Hui outside was waiting anxiously.
What Zhang Degen said about his impatience was indeed true. Even though he was careful, Zhang Hui still couldn't help but worry, especially since Zhang Degen had been in there for so long and the person he met was County Magistrate Liang instead of Secretary Ying, who was more familiar and easier to talk to. This made him even more uneasy.
"Dad, you finally came out. How did things go? What did the leader say?" Zhang Hui asked impatiently when he saw Zhang Degen coming out.
This is not only the expectation of everyone in the village, but also concerns the future of the village.
Zhang Degen sighed when he saw Zhang Hui like this. To be honest, if Pei Guoan were still alive, his son would not even be one-tenth as good as him. It was a pity that he had a bad fate and died early.
"What did I tell you before? No matter what you do, you must be calm. Don't be so impatient. How can you do big things in the future?" Zhang Degen's words were full of helplessness, and he also had expectations for his son.
"Dad, this soap workshop is too important for our village. I can't help it. Please tell me now and don't keep me in suspense."
Zhang Hui couldn't tell anything from Zhang Degen's face.
Zhang Degen sighed
"It's done!"
After saying this, Zhang Degen's face showed some joy, and his face also had a little look.
"Dad, is it really done? Why do I feel like I'm dreaming?"
"Otherwise, we came here well prepared. There is no reason why we can't succeed. Everything went smoothly today." Zhang Degen looked at his son's admiring eyes and couldn't help but show off a little.
"Dad, you are really amazing. I have to admire you. You got it done this time."
Zhang Hui really admires him. How worried he was before is how happy he is now.
Zhang Degen was proud for a while, but finally told the truth: "In fact, the fact that things went so smoothly today is thanks to Guoan's wife. At several critical moments, I almost couldn't get a word in, and it was only because of Guoan's wife that I was able to pick up the conversation and convince the leaders. The soap that Guoan's wife gave us when we left the village really came in handy. Otherwise, County Magistrate Liang would not believe that we had a soap-making recipe at all, and would have thought that your father was boastful and impractical. Especially that bad guy Wu Liangping, he actually spread all the bad words to County Magistrate Liang. If it weren't for this time, your father might not have been able to sit in the position of team leader for long."
Zhang Hui felt so lucky after hearing what Zhang Degen said. If this was true, it would have had a bad impact on the leaders. And this matter would have been judged by the leaders. It would be very difficult to accomplish this in the future. Even if it could be accomplished, who knows how many twists and turns it would take.
"That's really all thanks to my sister-in-law. I didn't expect the Pei family's sister-in-law to be so powerful."
Zhang Hui actually felt a little sad. Li Miaomiao was like that before, making mistakes every now and then. Who would have thought that she would be like this today?
"So we can't be too one-sided when we look at people. Guoan's wife was still young and naive back then, but after going through things, she became mature and steady, and she's also read a lot. Isn't she better than the average person? Who in our village has her ability? I wasn't optimistic when Guoan married her, but now it seems Guoan has seen her strengths. Let's not talk about Guoan's wife, just look at Xiaofan, how well he's been taught."
"Then Dad, let's go back to the village and let everyone in the village know the good news."
"Don't be impatient, and don't speak too quickly. Although County Magistrate Liang has basically agreed to this matter, the documents have not been issued yet, and he still has to inspect our village. County Magistrate Liang probably still has some doubts in his heart and wants to meet Guoan's wife."
"Don't be afraid of that. We really do have a recipe for soap. Besides, with Sister Miaomiao's ability, she can handle the leader."
Zhang Hui now admires Li Miaomiao even more and trusts her more, and is not worried at all.
"Not necessarily. After all, he's a big boss. Guoan's wife is smart, but she's never met such a big boss before. He's our county magistrate and secretary. I'm afraid she'll be nervous."
Zhang Degen had a reason to say this. Even now, he was very nervous when he saw Secretary Ying and County Magistrate Liang, but at least he was able to say what he had thought of. However, Li Miaomiao had never seen such a scene before, so it was hard to say whether she could handle it when the time came.
Not to mention anything else, even the team leader of the village next door was so nervous when he met the county governor that he couldn't even utter a few complete sentences.
