Chapter 88 Three Updates in One (Catching Bugs)

On the second day after being arrested, He Zhigang was escorted to the Phnom Penh Public Security Bureau by the 119 Food Factory. This was the factory's report to the police, hoping that the investigation by the public security comrades would make this guy, who refused to admit that he was an insider, tell the truth.

When the people from the security department escorted He Zhigang away, many workers in the shrimp sauce workshop looked at him with puzzled expressions, and some even sighed with regret.

"How can Team Leader He be such a person!"

"Team Leader He? Bah! A traitor like He Zhigang! A traitor! From now on, he is no longer a member of our 119! Not a member of the Shrimp Sauce Workshop!"

The workers were filled with righteous indignation, but Liu Qingshan, who was now acting as the director of the Shrimp Sauce Workshop, was much calmer. He comforted everyone, saying, "Comrades, now that the traitor has been caught, everyone should cheer up. We in the Shrimp Sauce Workshop are united as one and must not be defeated!"

"Deputy Director Liu, you are right! We must unite!"

"What Deputy Director Liu? It's Director Liu! Director Liu is leading us to defeat the food smell!"

......

Lin Xiang could hear Liu Qingshan being praised by everyone at Factory 1 even from Factory 2.

When the shrimp sauce workshop was in crisis and the factory was facing its greatest difficulty, Qin Yangbo abandoned his stall and left. It was Liu Qingshan who stepped forward to shoulder the heavy responsibility, caught the traitor, stabilized the morale of the workers, and led the shrimp sauce workshop workers to unite, resume production step by step, work hard to restore sales, and finally stop the arrogance of Shiwei.

Zhao Jianjun is familiar with the people at the Phnom Penh Grain and Oil Company. He just heard the news: "Shiwei has been quiet recently and has not been against our 119. I don't know if he has a change of heart."

With less food cravings, 119 was able to gradually resume normal production and supply order, but the previous impact was still there, and it still caused considerable losses.

It is not easy to see the situation gradually improving now. Everyone at 119 can only hope that things will slowly recover in the future.

After all, the quality of 119 Shrimp Sauce is well-known here. It is an old brand with a good reputation. With the passage of time, it will surely regain its lost ground.

Lin Xiang was checking the coconut juice supply of the second factory and was not surprised when she heard this: "As soon as Deputy Director Liu Qingshan took over the shrimp sauce workshop, the food cravings disappeared. It's really a coincidence."

"Liu Qingshan is really capable. The traitor has been caught and the shrimp sauce supply has been restored." Kong Zhenzhen has never liked Qin Yangbo's strange temper, and couldn't help but say, "Let Liu Qingshan be the director of the shrimp sauce workshop from now on."

Kong Zhenzhen's remarks are not an isolated case. There are many such remarks in the factory now.

The news spread from the Shrimp Sauce Workshop to other workshop departments. Many people thought that Qin Yangbo could leave if he wanted to and simply not come back. It seems that the Shrimp Sauce Workshop cannot do without him.

On the contrary, Liu Qingshan, the acting director, did a great job in every aspect and was very popular.

Even the factory leaders were optimistic about Liu Qingshan.

At a new meeting of the leadership team of the first plant, Director Huang affirmed the work done by Liu Qingshan after he took over the position of director of the shrimp sauce workshop. Finally, he asked for everyone's opinions: "What do you think of the position of director of the shrimp sauce workshop?"

Song Ming, the director of the second canned fish workshop, was the first to speak up: "Director, if Director Qin doesn't want to do this anymore, then forget it. I think it's a good idea to appoint Deputy Director Liu as the new director. He's also capable."

As soon as this was said, other workshop directors echoed it. Liu Qingshan was now very popular. Even Secretary Tang nodded affirmatively: "Qin Yangbo is not responsible! He should just not come back! Let Liu Qingshan lead the shrimp sauce workshop!"

Factory Director Huang looked at Liu Qingshan who was sitting at the table. In the past, the deputy director was not qualified to attend such leadership team meetings, and Liu Qingshan was only able to join after becoming the acting director.

But seeing everyone suggesting this, Liu Qingshan waved his hands and said, "Director Huang, Secretary Tang, I am not qualified to take on this important task. We still have to invite Director Qin back. He built and led the shrimp sauce workshop. I don't have the qualifications."

Secretary Tang was even more angry when he heard this: "He built this company himself, so how can he give up at the critical moment? He has no sense of responsibility at all! Liu Qingshan, what are you afraid of! Everyone says you can handle this position, so you can handle it!"

Secretary Tang spoke again, and the other workshop directors followed suit. Finally, Director Huang made the final decision: "Liu Qingshan, everyone is optimistic about you, and the workers also recognize you. Qin Yangbo is also old. If he doesn't want to work anymore, just retire. From now on, the director of the shrimp sauce workshop will be you, Liu Qingshan."

Seeing this, Liu Qingshan could no longer refuse and said with a firm face: "Director Huang, Secretary Tang, since this is the case, I will definitely work hard in the future and lead the shrimp sauce workshop to greater glory!"

The shrimp sauce workshop changed hands. Qin Yangbo, who was thought to be the least likely to be replaced as the workshop director by everyone in 119, actually would not come back. Liu Qingshan took over. When this day really came, the workers were still surprised.

"Everyone said that the heads of other workshops might be replaced, but the one in the Shrimp Sauce Workshop was least likely to be replaced. I didn't expect that the Shrimp Sauce Workshop would be replaced first."

"Qin Yangbo single-handedly built up the shrimp sauce workshop. He has supervised and contributed to every seafood sauce in our factory. Is he really retiring now?"

"The director of the shrimp sauce workshop has really changed! Liu Qingshan has become very successful in the future!"

With the new official taking office, the shrimp sauce workshop was filled with joy. Even the directors of other workshops came to congratulate him. Liu Qingshan was in high spirits and gave cigarettes to several directors and team leaders of the shrimp sauce workshop.

Zhao Jianjun brought Lin Xiang, Kong Zhenzhen and Ma Defa to congratulate and join in the fun.

"Hey, Director Zhao, Director Lin, Director Kong, Director Ma, thank you for taking the trouble to come here." Liu Qingshan was polite and handed out cigarettes. He handed two Daqianmen cigarettes to Zhao Jianjun and Ma Defa, "Do you two female comrades not smoke?"

Lin Xiang and Kong Zhenzhen shook their heads at him.

After a lively time at Factory 1, several people from Factory 2 were on their way back. Ma Defa puffed on the cigarette in his hand and said fondly: "It's still Daqianmen! Director Liu spent a lot of money to buy this."

Zhao Jianjun himself was only able to buy high-end cigarettes after he was promoted to the second factory director. Before that, he could only buy cheaper and lower-end cigarettes: "Before, I couldn't buy Daqianmen, so I went to the factory director Huang to trick him into giving me half a pack. Daqianmen is a good product. If you are not a factory director or a secretary, you can't buy it."

Lin Xiang thought again of the questions she and her husband had asked He Zhigang that night.

——

That night, Lin Xiang asked He Zhigang a question that surprised him: "On the day when the factory caught Wang Qifa, you and Deputy Director Liu were having dinner outside. How come you suddenly went back to the workshop in the middle of the night to get a pack of cigarettes, and happened to find Wang Qifa stealing things?"

Just a few words brought He Zhigang back to that night three years ago. He remembered that day Liu Qingshan said he would treat him to a meal to thank him for covering for him. Not only that, he also gave him a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes.

Daqianmen is a good thing, but he can't buy it. Only a true brother like Liu Qingshan can be so generous and willing to give such an expensive gift.

But for some reason, the Daqianmen cigarette was left in the workshop. He was about to finish his meal at the state-owned hotel when Liu Qingshan reminded him that he had not taken the Daqianmen. He was hesitant about whether to go back to get it, but it was Liu Qingshan who took the initiative to offer to accompany him back to the workshop to get the cigarettes.

He Zhigang recalled the situation that day until the last moment: "Later, we took the Daqianmen out from the workshop. It was Liu Qingshan who had sharp eyes and said he noticed some movement over there. As a result, when he went over to take a look, he saw Wang Qifa trying to steal something."

It was from He Zhigang's answer that Lin Xiang confirmed the answer in her heart.

——

Liu Qingshan, feeling triumphant, looked around the shrimp sauce workshop, and slowly raised the corners of his lips as he looked at the workshop director's office which was always occupied by Qin Yangbo.

After he sat down comfortably, his hands slowly stroked the seat, and he was trembling slightly.

This day, I have finally waited for!

Listening to the workers' calls for help, Director Liu Qingshan became even more amiable, asking about the workers' well-being and responding to the workers' wishes.

Liu Qingshan had waited too long to be the director of the shrimp sauce workshop, to be able to attend the highest-level leadership meetings in the factory, and to become the head of the most prestigious shrimp sauce workshop in Factory 119.

After chatting a few friendly words with the last worker who was leaving the night shift, Liu Qingshan walked home under the moonlight, humming a little tune in a happy mood and feeling leisurely.

He took out a cigarette box from his pocket, and the aroma of Daqianmen wafted in the air amidst the flashes of sparks; it was the smell of power and money.

"Liu Qingshan!"

The path near the factory was dark and quiet, with few people around. It was nearly nine o'clock in the evening, and the factory workers had already gone home. Only some of those on night shift were left in the factory. In the long corridor, the only sounds were the rustling of the wind and a sudden roar.

In the darkness of the night, Liu Qingshan saw clearly the person coming. It was He Zhigang who had already been escorted to the Public Security Bureau.

"You...He Zhigang? How did you get out?" He Zhigang has been identified as a traitor by the whole world. With both human and material evidence, no one would believe him.

"You definitely don't want me to come out!" He Zhigang approached step by step, his face rising with anger, "Liu Qingshan, I really didn't expect that you would frame me!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Qingshan's eyes flashed, but he tried hard to calm down.

"When Wang Qifa was arrested, you deliberately led me there, right? I thought you were really generous to your brothers and gave me the Daqianmen! Pah! Now that I think about it, if you didn't work for Shiwei, how could you have been smoking the Daqianmen all the time!" He Zhigang could only sigh that he was so stupid and was used for nothing. Three years ago, he was plotted to arrest Wang Qifa, and three years later, he was designed to be a scapegoat. "You are even more abominable this time!" "When the shrimp paste was fermenting, I was on duty at night. You were kind enough to help me and asked me to go out for a smoke. As soon as I lit the cigarette and took two puffs, you said you had to go to the toilet. While I was smoking outside, you went back and did something, right? And...you brought Fang Yuan and Chen Ying to my house, and when they were questioning me, you stuffed a letter in my house to deliberately frame me, right?"

He Zhigang glared at him, his eyes almost popping out, and every word he said was filled with anger: "It's you, you are the traitor in the factory, you f*cking want me to be the scapegoat!"

When Liu Qingshan heard He Zhigang's first sentence, his heart was startled and started beating wildly, but the more he listened, the calmer he became.

He has been hiding for many years and is not a fool. Seeing He Zhigang's anger, he raised the corner of his lips calmly: "Comrade He Zhigang, you are good at making up stories, but do you think anyone will believe you? Now the whole world thinks you are a traitor. No matter what you want to say, everyone will think you want to frame me. If you don't believe it, go and try it. Say that I framed you and see if anyone will believe it."

It was the first time that He Zhigang saw such a sinister sneer on the face of Liu Qingshan, whom he had worked with for many years. It was like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which was chilling.

He had indeed chosen the wrong person and had been taken advantage of.

At this moment, Liu Qingshan was still able to mock himself calmly. He Zhigang was so angry that he almost wanted to rush up and die with this man.

But in his mind, Lin Xiang's words were still echoing.

He tried to calm down, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Yes, you planned it well, it was really good! The witnesses and evidence are all clearly laid out. Now everyone thinks that I deliberately tampered with the shrimp paste fermentation. I want to kill the shrimp paste workshop. You also framed me in my house under the noses of the other two team leaders. If I say that I am not a traitor and was framed by you, no one will believe me anymore."

Liu Qingshan's heart became calmer. Seeing He Zhigang's sarcastic expression with a hint of despair, he was finally touched: "Zhigang, you should admit your mistakes. The factory will not be too harsh on you because they remember your many years of work. Don't worry, when you get out in the future, come to me if you have any difficulties. We are brothers, and I will not fail to help you."

"Ha." He Zhigang was almost laughing at this shameless man. He had been hurt so badly by him. If he was really identified as the insider who sold the factory secrets, he would be sent to jail and his life would be ruined! He still wanted to pretend to be a brother and keep saying that he would help him?

"Liu Qingshan, what do you think if I admit that I am the traitor?"

Liu Qingshan had a smile on his face, knowing that this man was completely desperate. When people are in despair, they will give up struggling and throw everything into the air. He just needed to add fuel to the fire: "Zhigang, just admit it. If you continue to struggle, it will be bad for everyone. If you admit it, I can still speak up for you and plead for mercy."

"I don't need your help to speak." He Zhigang turned from defense to offense and told Liu Qingshan what Lin Xiang had taught him. "Tomorrow I will admit that I am the traitor, and then tell Director Huang and Secretary Tang, and tell the public security comrades that there is more than one traitor in Factory 119! I have help!"

Liu Qingshan's face changed and he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"That helper is you - Liu Qingshan!" He Zhigang laughed loudly, "So? You set up a trap to make me a traitor and take the blame for you. Well, I, the traitor, confessed that I had a helper and said that you were also a traitor. Do you think others will believe it?"

"You——!" Liu Qingshan never expected that He Zhigang would actually say such a thing and use this trick to cut off the source of the problem!

He had planned everything in order to let He Zhigang take the blame for him. After that, he would have the generous reward from Shiwei, no worries about food and clothing, and he could also get rid of Qin Yangbo, the old Deng who was firmly occupying the position of director of the shrimp sauce workshop, and take a high position himself.

Gaining both fame and fortune is clearly a complete victory.

But He Zhigang, this madman, would rather admit the name of the traitor and drag himself into the water!

"Are you crazy?" Liu Qingshan gritted his teeth, his face suddenly changed, "I didn't hurt you, why do you have to hurt me!"

It was the first time that He Zhigang saw such a frightened look on the face of Liu Qingshan, who always pretended to be a good guy. He felt relieved and laughed loudly: "Liu Qingshan, you are scared too? You hurt me like this, and you think I will let you go? I escaped from the Public Security Bureau just to die with you. You want me to be the traitor? Fine, I will! But don't even think about getting away! Let's be the traitor together! Let's die together!"

Liu Qingshan stared blankly at the man in front of him who seemed to have gone mad. He panicked for a moment but quickly calmed down.

He had clearly won a great victory, with fame and fortune in his hands, and he must not let this man ruin it.

He Zhigang escaped from the Public Security Bureau. No one knew his whereabouts. Now he was on a deserted road at night...

A plan quickly took shape in Liu Qingshan's mind. His eyes gradually turned cold and he slowly approached the mad man. He put his right hand behind his body and took out a folding knife from his trouser pocket.

The blade was unsheathed, flashing a cold light. Now that there was no one around, it was the right time to solve this problem.

After today, He Zhigang, the traitor of Factory 119, escaped from the Public Security Bureau and his whereabouts are unknown. In fact, no one has seen him alive or dead.

Everyone would just think that the traitor was scared and ran away.

With the sharp blade revealed, Liu Qingshan stabbed straight at He Zhigang, but He Zhigang reacted quickly and blocked the sneak attack with both hands, which made him even more furious.

"Liu Qingshan, not only do you want me to be your spy, you even want to kill me! I have been blind for so many years!"

Liu Qingshan held the man down, pressing the sharp blade down inch by inch, and said fiercely: "You blame yourself for being stupid, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen you to take the blame. I blame you for not staying in jail for a year or two and asking me for help later. I would definitely not sit idly by, but you insisted on escaping and even wanted to drag me down with you. Zhigang, we are brothers, so don't blame me."

As soon as the words fell, Liu Qingshan suddenly suppressed He Zhigang, who was at a disadvantage after being ambushed, and stabbed him with a knife...

Amidst the cold light, a sharp shout was heard.

"Liu Qingshan! You're a traitor! Traitor!" Chief Yang of the Security Department rushed out, rushed over in a few steps, and grabbed Liu Qingshan. "Hurry up and catch him! The real traitor of 119 has been caught!"

Liu Qingshan stood there in a daze, listening to the crisp sound of the blade hitting the ground, and staring at several people who walked out of the corner in the darkness - Factory Director Huang, Secretary Tang, Qin Yangbo, Zhao Jianjun and Lin Xiang from the second factory, and a tall man.

Lin Xiang stepped forward, holding an envelope in her hand: "Liu Qingshan, Yang Yun, the resident of Room 302, Building 71, East District, Phnom Penh, is your distant relative. You and Shiwei's secret letters were all sent to her, and you picked them up in person. After you replied, you also asked her to post them, right? You thought you could do it without anyone noticing..."

Lin Xiang loosened her grip on the cold envelope, and it landed right on his face. "Have you ever heard of this saying? If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself."

Liu Qingshan's eyes suddenly widened and he collapsed to the ground in an instant, as if he had lost all his strength.

++++

When the workers of 119 Food Factory came to work early in the morning, they saw chaos at the door of the shrimp sauce workshop. Qin Yangbo, who had already retired, had returned, and the people around him still called him Director Qin.

The other workshop workers were confused. Was it because their memory was confused?

Wasn’t Liu Qingshan the new director of the shrimp sauce workshop?

And the traitor He Zhigang actually came back safely and was standing next to Qin Yangbo talking.

After further inquiries, everyone was shocked to find out that the real traitor of 119 was Liu Qingshan!!!

Liu Qingshan knew that the situation was hopeless and he could no longer hide anything. All his years of painstaking planning had been in vain, so he confessed everything in despair.

Four years ago, he was approached by the secretary of Shiwei Factory Director Qiu. He fell under the financial attack and gradually provided Shiwei with some information about the 119 Food Factory. At first, the information was harmless and he could get a generous reward. Why not do it?

Gradually, Food asked him to do more and more things, and provided information that involved more and more core secrets. He struggled at first, but after being coerced and tempted by Food, he finally compromised.

Once you start selling out your factory, there's no turning back.

The temptation of money is one thing, and the fear of being betrayed is another.

Three years ago, he stole the canned fish formula from Factory 119 at the request of Shiwei, but because of the big move, the insiders in the factory became suspicious and worried for a while. Fortunately, Zhou Hongfei soon received information that Wang Qifa had stolen Factory 119. He and Factory Director Qiu worked together and decided to take advantage of the situation and let Wang Qifa be arrested, so that he could take all the blame and be completely safe.

Things went as planned, but after two years of stability, Shiwei asked him to take advantage of the separation of Factory 1 and Factory 2 to deal a heavy blow to the shrimp sauce workshop.

Liu Qingshan was ruthless. He wanted to make money by working for Shiwei, and also wanted to take the opportunity to bring down Qin Yangbo. He had been under Qin Yangbo's command for too long, and the biggest contributor to 119 had always been overshadowed by him.

Other workshops may have a chance to succeed, but he, the deputy director of the shrimp sauce workshop, will never be able to surpass Qin Yangbo.

Everything was going smoothly. He Zhigang was framed and could not protest. Qin Yangbo even resigned, which accelerated his plan. This opportunity was rare, and Liu Qingshan was unwilling to wait any longer. However, something unexpected happened in the end...

"Liu Qingshan confessed everything!"

In a factory conference room, all participants were smiling happily, and the gloom of the past few days finally dissipated.

Director Huang obtained Liu Qingshan's confession, which included the details of his conspiracy and communication with the secretary of Director Qiu of the Food Factory.

"Now we can go to the police station to report the case and get rid of the food smell!"

How can we not be excited about the betrayal plan that has been carefully planned and ambushed by Shiwei and Liu Qingshan for several years and has finally been broken!

Secretary Tang seemed to be still in shock, and angrily slammed the conference table: "I never thought that Liu Qingshan, who looks quite decent, could be so evil! I am also blind!"

Turning his head, he looked at everyone: "So Lao Qin resigned on purpose? Just to make the shrimp sauce workshop more chaotic, so that Liu Qingshan could be in charge of the workshop and become complacent, which would expose his true colors?"

Qin Yangbo nodded: "Yes."

Secretary Tang looked at his old partner in surprise again: "Old Huang, have you always known about this?"

Director Huang nodded: "Of course I know, otherwise how could I agree to Lao Qin quitting his job at that time?"

Secretary Tang felt a little pain in his heart, and slowly looked at Zhao Jianjun from Factory 2: "You also knew the whole thing?"

Zhao Jianjun looked very proud: "That's nonsense! This is our Chang Xiaolin's idea, I definitely know it!"

Secretary Tang covered his chest and said, "I'm the only one who doesn't know about feelings!"

These people are all acting. What am I, the secretary of a factory and a high-ranking leader, in your eyes?

Finally, he looked at Lin Xiang: "Comrade Lin Xiang, why didn't you tell me!"

Lin Xiang looked innocent: "Secretary Tang, you always loved to oppose, opposing this and that. I'm worried that you will oppose this time too."

Secretary Tang: "..."

I want to vomit blood.

In any case, the turmoil at Factory 1 was finally settled.

Liu Qingshan is under investigation at the Public Security Bureau. Because he stole factory secrets, accepted bribes, and attempted murder, he will be severely punished by law.

The Shiwei Food Factory could not escape the connection with Liu Qingshan's confession. Director Qiu and his secretary were arrested, and even the factory's most capable core members Qiu Xiuping and Zhou Hongfei were taken away for investigation and questioning.

When Lin Xiang heard that Zhou Hongfei was also taken away, she could almost imagine Zhou Shengqiang being furious.

"It's over. Zhou Hongfei's father is really going to be so angry about his son that he has a headache." Lin Xiang sat in her own yard, feeling the rare sunny day in January, the warm sunshine gently caressing her body.

He Hongyuan handed his wife a bottle of coconut juice and said with a smile, "You deserve it."

"You're not so happy that you can't sleep, are you?" Lin Xiang tilted her head to look at the man, "You're a grudge-bearer."

He Hongyuan admitted generously: "I am very happy, but not so happy that I can't sleep. Zhou Shengqiang will definitely kick his son out."

"That's right." Lin Xiang knew that Zhou Hongfei's problem was not the most serious. In addition, because of the relationship with Chief Zhou, it was impossible for Zhou Shengqiang to watch his only son being imprisoned.

However, by using this relationship to recruit people, Zhou Shengqiang was really dragged into the quagmire by Zhou Hongfei, and he can no longer do things cleanly.

The news that Shiwei Food Factory framed 119 Food Factory spread quickly, shocking the people of Phnom Penh and even Hai Ninh Province.

The fact that these two famous food factories had such a connection became big news everywhere.

"I heard that he has a terrible taste for food. He bribed the deputy director of 119 and almost ruined 119!"

"I heard that my uncle who runs a steamed bun shop next to the Public Security Bureau saw the director of the food and taste factory being arrested. He will probably go to jail!"

"I told you so. A while ago, there was a rumor that there was something wrong with the 119 shrimp sauce. If you ate it, you'd get into trouble. It must be because the food was dry!"

"Yes, the shrimp sauce from 119 is the best. The taste is far inferior to it. It only makes these evil things! If I eat shrimp sauce with bad taste, I'm worried that my liver will rot."

The wind direction suddenly changed, and the 119 Food Factory suddenly became a little pitiful in the hearts of ordinary people. In addition, its taste is as good as ever, the canned seafood sauce is delicious, and the soda is also delicious. Who can not like it!

Lin Xiang was deeply suspicious that our 119 was now extremely beautiful and powerful, attracting many fans and being the best match!

Not only did the supply that had been snatched away by the food enthusiasts through various underhanded means return, but counter sales also hit a new high. The business was booming, with sales at both Factory 1 and Factory 2 increasing steadily.

Director Huang and Secretary Tang solemnly convened a factory-wide meeting, in which they spoke in depth about the major crises that the 119 factory had encountered over the years. They denounced traitors like Liu Qingshan for selling out the factory for money, and used his impending imprisonment as a warning to everyone. Finally, they did not forget to encourage all employees in the factory to unite.

Director Huang's voice resounded throughout the auditorium and throughout Factory 119 along with the loudspeakers: "Comrades, this crisis has given us a profound warning. All employees of Factory 119, no matter which workshop or department they are from, whether they are in Factory 1 or Factory 2, are one family and should all work together. We do not allow traitors and should unite. Factory 2 played an indispensable role in catching the real traitor this time, especially Comrade Lin Xiang, the director of the Product Department of Factory 2, who actively offered advice and suggestions, and Factory Director Zhao Jianjun of Factory 2 also took the initiative to cooperate. Otherwise, we would still be deceived by Liu Qingshan. Please allow me to thank them for their help on behalf of all employees of Factory 119."

There was thunderous applause from the audience, and Secretary Tang also clapped his hands with a moved look on his face.

He Zhigang was framed and it was ultimately his carelessness that gave Liu Qingshan the opportunity to ruin a batch of shrimp paste. He took the initiative to request a fine of half a year's salary, but he was so relieved after being cleared of the grievances that his hands turned red from clapping in the audience.

"Factory 1 will present a bonus to Comrade Lin Xiang and Director Zhao Jianjun as a token of our gratitude." Director Huang stood up, and Secretary Tang beside him also stood up. The two leaders bowed together, "At the same time, we also thank all employees for their united response to this crisis. Without all of you, the 119 Food Factory would not be able to revive."

After the meeting, Lin Xiang walked out of the auditorium and met the workers from Factory 119 who were crowded together along the way. Everyone looked at her with sparkling eyes, and kept greeting her and expressing their gratitude.

"Director Lin, you are still smart."

"Director Lin, luckily you have a solution this time!"

......

Lin Xiang returned to Factory 2 from Factory 1 and couldn't help but sigh with Factory Director Zhao: "119 has finally been overcome."

Zhao Jianjun's eyes wandered from Factory 2 to Factory 1: "It's not easy!"

Factory 119 resumed its normal production order, and the shrimp sauce workshop led by Qin Yangbo continued to prosper. During this period, with the special approval of Factory Director Huang and Secretary Tang, thousands of canned shrimp sauce were specially produced and sent to Factory 2.

"This is a gift from our factory one to factory two. Thank you for the help from our brother factory." Qin Yangbo recalled the shock he felt when Lin Xiang asked him to resign as the director of the shrimp sauce workshop that day, stirring the water even more turbulently and inducing Liu Qingshan to act more radically.

I didn't expect that this young comrade had such a broad vision and a sharp mind that he could really find Liu Qingshan.

Lin Xiang looked at the cans of shrimp paste that were almost filling up the empty space and smiled, "Director Qin, I will accept them on behalf of the workers of Factory 2."

"Director Lin." Director Qin looked at Lin Xiang, his eyes full of admiration, "It is said that the waves behind push the waves ahead, and this is true. It is really gratifying that the Second Factory has talents like you."

Lin Xiang was chewing on a can of shrimp sauce. "Director Qin, you are too kind. If there is a chance, I would like to ask you to take a closer look at our Spanish mackerel sauce and ask if there are any improvements to the formula and other issues. You are an expert in this field."

Qin Yangbo smiled and said, "If you think highly of my ability, I will definitely come."

Thousands of cans of shrimp sauce were distributed to every employee in the second factory. Everyone ate the shrimp sauce happily, looking very happy.

Lin Xiang took her own can, no, the first factory gave her a box of canned shrimp sauce and a bonus of 200 yuan, and she took them all home.

He Guifang looked at the cans and exclaimed, "How can we finish all this?"

Lin Xiang was not in a hurry: "Send it to Yuezhu, Minmin, Qingya's family, and other neighbors in the courtyard, and let everyone eat together."

Little Coconut stuck out his tongue and said, "Mom, I want noodles with shrimp sauce!"

"Okay." Lin Xiang didn't know who the lady inherited her genes from. She was such a greedy girl.

He Hongyuan, on the other hand, didn't care about these things until his wife gave him half of the 200 yuan bonus.

"Captain He, you don't even want a hundred yuan?" Lin Xiang shook the ten big group cards in his hand, "This time, I was able to catch the traitor thanks to your expert analysis. I am fair and will never let you suffer a loss."

He Hongyuan pushed the money back and said, "You keep it. I just want to ask why the acceptance letter hasn't arrived yet."

Lin Xiang: "..."

After the Chinese New Year at the end of the month, He Hongyuan will leave for the capital. Now he only cares about whether his wife can be admitted to the capital university. However, everyone else in the factory has received admission letters, but there is no news from the capital.

"Let's wait a little longer. The capital is so far away, maybe it will be a little slower." Lin Xiang was still full of confidence.

In late January, just over a week before the Chinese New Year, the postman arrived at Factory 119.

The postman came several times recently, bringing very few acceptance letters.

There are many applicants for the college entrance examination, but the admission rate is low, and only a few can be admitted to university.

Therefore, every time they saw the green-dressed postman coming, the workers would get excited and gather around him curiously: "Comrade, where did you get this notice from?"

The postman held two envelopes in his hand: "From the capital! There is something special about your factory. Two people have been admitted to the university in the capital!"

hiss!

The workers took a deep breath. Someone actually got into a university in the capital! How amazing!

The workers from Factory 1 and Factory 2 gathered at the gate where the two factories met, talking excitedly.

"Did Director Lin apply for the capital's volunteer service?"

"Yes, yes, yes, she must have passed the exam. I'll go call her!"

"Secretary Tang's son also applied to the capital, and he applied to Peking University! He said the address he left was the one in the factory, and the other one must be his!"

When Secretary Tang received the news, he rushed over in a hurry, knowing that his son had been infected!

However, the postman was surrounded by many onlookers and was in the middle of the crowd. He couldn't squeeze in for a while.

"Secretary Tang, you're here. Congratulations! Your son must have passed the exam!" After the workers from Factory 1 congratulated him, they hurriedly said, "There's also an admission letter from the capital. It must be from Director Lin from Factory 2."

"Secretary Tang, your son did well in the exam. Don't be too proud of yourself. You might hurt Director Lin's feelings."

"That's right, Secretary Tang, you usually like to show off too much. Now that your son has been admitted to Peking University, you can't be sarcastic and criticize Director Lin."

Secretary Tang: "...Am I that kind of person?"

All the workers in the factory said in unison: "Yes! That's absolutely true!"

Secretary Tang: "..."

Secretary Tang, who was very angry, pushed everyone aside and walked up to the postman, explaining: "How petty are you all? Comrade Xiaolin is the one who made plans for our factory, how can I smear her? Besides, it's already good to be admitted to a university in the capital, there's no need to focus on Kyoto University."

Lin Xiangshanshan arrived late, and just as she approached the crowd, she heard Secretary Tang giving an important and long speech.

In the crowd, someone shouted "Director Lin", which instantly attracted everyone's attention. Everyone spontaneously made room for Lin Xiang to approach.

"Xiao Lin is here, just in time! Congratulations on getting into the capital's university." Secretary Tang hurriedly greeted her, "This is something worth celebrating. Everyone should learn from Comrade Xiao Lin. He graduated from high school a few years ago and never touched a textbook since then. He studied for such a short time and got into the capital's university. He's amazing! My son Ji Ye only taught a few more years than others, and he was able to get into Beijing University even though he had to read high school textbooks every day. He was just lucky!"

Lin Xiang: “…?”

Is this Secretary Tang?

Before she could say anything, Secretary Tang consoled her: "If Xiaolin had taught for a few years, he would have been admitted to Beijing University."

Secretary Tang said a few words, and finally prepared to take his son's admission letter to Peking University and take it home. Before that, he was prepared to show off and hand out candies everywhere to celebrate. He even had banners ready to be hung everywhere in the factory - warmly congratulating 119 Food Factory Secretary Tang Qiankun's son Tang Jiye for being admitted to Peking University.

It's over. I can't hang up now. Forget it. Considering Comrade Lin Xiang's feelings, I'll just go home quietly to celebrate.

"Comrade postman, please give me the admission letter from Kyoto University. My child has been admitted."

The postman was distracted by the chattering noises. Upon hearing this, he hurriedly handed over the admission letter from Peking University.

Secretary Tang took it with a smile on his face, ready to appreciate it carefully. However, when his eyes touched the words on the envelope, the smile disappeared instantly.
