Director Xie also wanted to see what kind of person Li Qingyang, who was directly appointed by his superiors, really was.
Many people in Daobei Village recognized Director Xie and came forward to chat with him. Hearing that Director Xie was looking for Li Qingyang, some even went to Li Qingyang's house to call him.
Director Xie and his group walked towards Village Chief Li's house, and Village Chief Li, having heard the commotion, went out to greet them.
"Oh, Director Xie, what brings you here in person?"
Director Xie glared at him, annoyed. "Village Chief Li, a few days ago you went to the commune to request that you resign as the head of Daobei Village. After consultation, the commune has agreed to your request. Starting today, you will officially step down as the head of Daobei Village."
Upon hearing this, Village Chief Li's face turned completely pale. He forced a smile and said, "Okay, okay."
Village Chief Li's wife rushed out of the house and grabbed Director Xie's sleeve in disbelief. "Director Xie, what's going on? How can the village chief just quit like that?"
Director Xie forcefully pulled his sleeve back, "Let's get down to business. Why are you pulling my sleeve? Mind your image."
The village head's position was appointed by the commune. Since Village Head Li has already resigned, after some discussion, we also felt it was inappropriate for him to continue serving as the village head of Daobei Village, so we removed him. There's nothing to be surprised about.”
"But……"
"Alright, alright, there's no 'but' about it. Over the years, everyone knows the contributions Daobei Village has made to socialist construction. Let's leave it at that."
After finishing his speech, Director Xie did not linger at the entrance of Village Chief Li's house and continued walking forward.
Where does Li Qingyang live?
Li Qingyang had already received the news and was on his way here when he met Director Xie.
He stepped forward and shook hands with Director Xie. "Hello, Director Xie, I am Li Qingyang. May I ask what brings you here?"
Director Xie shook Li Qingyang's hand and looked him up and down. He was a spirited young man. He thought to himself, "How did he catch the eye of the higher-ups? He doesn't look that impressive."
Releasing Li Qingyang's hand and taking a step back, Director Xie said very solemnly to Li Qingyang,
"Comrade Li Qingyang, the organization hereby officially appoints you as the village head and production team leader of Daobei Village. We hope that you will always keep your responsibilities in mind and lead all comrades in Daobei Village to contribute to socialist construction."
After returning home, Li Qingyang and Miao Yujiao discussed the matter together. He was willing to take on the position of brigade leader, but he did not expect the appointment to come so quickly.
He didn't show any surprise, stood at attention, and said, "Yes. Please rest assured, Organization and Director Xie, I will do my best to lead the villagers of Daobei Village to work hard in production and strive to contribute our greatest strength to the construction of socialism."
"Good! Well said!"
A large number of villagers had already gathered around, including some gentlemen who had a good relationship with Li Qingyang, who were all applauding and cheering.
Afterwards, witnessed by Director Xie, the former village chief Li Da and Li Qingyang handed over all village affairs, and Li Qingyang was officially replaced as the head of Daobei Village.
After seeing Director Xie off, Li Qingyang was still standing at the village entrance, not yet home, when Old Li came over with Tang Yue in tow.
"Congratulations."
Li Qingyang turned around and saw that it was the two of them, a smile appearing on his face. He nodded to them, but some things were not suitable to be said in public, so he didn't speak.
Tang Yue made a direct request, "Captain, this morning my house was disturbed by people from the educated youth settlement. I'm going to the police station to report them. Please arrange for a few villagers to come with me to testify."
Li Qingyang didn't offer any explanation. "Yes, I was there at the time. I'll find a few people to go with you."
These past two days, Daobei Village hasn't been busy, and the educated youth at the settlement are all resting at home with nothing to do.
Lu Yong was lying in bed trying to figure out how to deal with the Tang family when his henchman, Yu Qian, rushed back from outside.
Seeing that Lü Yong was still lying on the bed, legs crossed, he hurriedly called out,
"Brother Yong, why are you still lying down? Did you know that the village has a new brigade leader?"
Lu Yong sat up abruptly. "What? When did this happen? I haven't heard about it!"
"Just now, it was Li Qingyang's turn. Brother Yong, Li Qingyang has always had a good relationship with the Tang family. What should we do now?"
Lu Yong scoffed dismissively, "What does it matter? If he dares to abuse his power, I'll report them to the police."
Yu Qian then hurriedly said, "Oh dear, Brother Yong. If we're going, we'd better hurry. Old Tang's daughter has already taken her grandfather to the police station."
"What?" Lü Yong jumped out of bed, gritting his teeth.
"That brat, I haven't even thought about dealing with her yet, and she's already starting to cause trouble for me. Humph, I won't let her succeed."
"Let's go to the police station too."
Yu Qian grabbed Lü Yong, "Brother Yong, without a letter of introduction, we can't even get into the county town."
Lu Yongqi slammed his fist on the table with a bang. "What do we do then? Are we just going to wait here?"
Yu Qian's eyes darted around, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Brother Yong, the best way now is to quickly unite all the educated youth in the settlement. As long as we work together, the Public Security Bureau can't possibly deal with so many of us at once, don't you think?"
Lu Yong thought it made sense, and with a wave of his hand and squinting eyes, he said, "Go to the courtyard and give all these people a lesson."
Tang Yue and her group went to the county in the afternoon and returned before dark, accompanied by officers from the Public Security Bureau.
They went directly to the educated youth settlement and arrested all those who had caused trouble that day. No matter how much Lü Yong and his group shouted, it didn't change that fact.
