"You're all fools! You didn't even bother to prepare the medicine Dean Lin ordered. You even dared to secretly divide up and eat the tofu that Dean Lin had worked so hard to get. Aren't you afraid of Dean Lin's blame?"
Liang Ying was accused and felt quite dissatisfied:
"Blame? How to blame? He already sent us to Changping Countryside. How else can he blame us?"
"That's right. I was supposed to be getting a regular job and could move back to the city, but Lin Sanqi turned against us and destroyed us."
At this time, Fang Sanxiao was not convinced after hearing this. There were always some clear-headed employees:
"Lao Liang, you all should cut your mouth. Dean Lin is always trying to destroy everything he has done. Over the past year, Dean Lin has been the only one helping us. When have we ever helped him?"
Zhu Guangquan, the father of Zhu Xiaoxia who was bitten by the wolf, also said:
"Let's not talk about Dean Lin for now. As veteran practitioners of Chinese medicine, shouldn't we follow the old rules and make medicine that's genuine and worth the price? As the saying goes: The ancients treated with the heart, and with a righteous heart, the medicine was genuine. Today, people treat with the hands, and with indiscriminate hands, the medicine is useless. You're destroying the reputation of Chinese medicine!"
"I'm starving to death, why should I care about credibility?~~~"
"If we affect Dean Lin's plans, none of us will be happy!"
"Song Xingjian, get out of here! Overthrow the reactionary foreman!"
"Feng Baode, what right do you have to hit someone~~~"
"Oh no, stop it, the herbs are all spilled~~~"
Changping Farm was in complete chaos. The workers split into two factions again and started fighting with each other.
Pharmaceutical tools and Chinese medicinal materials were flying everywhere, and musk and bezoar, which would not be available for purchase even after decades, were just being trampled upon.
By the time Lin Sanqi got the news and rushed over, more than two hours had passed.
Lin Sanqi came with the security department, driving a large truck. The number of security guards who came together reached 10 people.
As soon as he arrived at the farm, Lin Sanqi jumped out of the car. The mountain road was already full of employees.
Some people lowered their heads guiltily, some shed tears of grievance, and some showed disdain on their faces, as if they hated the Japanese devils.
Lin Sanqi didn't say anything. He looked at these former colleagues, and the anger in his heart grew bigger and bigger.
When I walked into the former tuberculosis department's office, I saw Song Xingjian lying on the hospital bed in pain, and orthopedic doctor Fu Hongwei was performing manual reduction surgery on him.
Lin Sanqi quickly stepped forward and asked, "Old Fu, how is Old Song?"
Fu Hongwei cursed angrily, "Both bones in my right arm were broken. You were so cruel! What kind of hatred or grudge is this?"
Lin Sanqi suppressed his anger and asked:
"Old Song, who hit you?"
Song Xingjian struggled to get up, but was held down by Lin Sanqi:
"Lin, Dean Lin, forget it. We are all colleagues. They were just careless. I fell on my own."
Fang Sanxiao stood up at this time:
"Dean Lin, I saw it with my own eyes. It was Yang Jingfeng and Feng Baode who fought. Huang Taiyong, Li Wu, and Liang Ying also took action. Old Song was lying down at the time, and they were still recovering!"
Lin Sanqi looked outside the house and asked coldly:
"Why did you hit Lao Song? Even if there's a conflict between colleagues, you shouldn't be so brutal. If it's a comminuted fracture, you're going to cripple Lao Song. We've been colleagues for so many years, don't you know that Lao Song is an honest man?"
Everyone at the scene was silent. Those who had participated in the fight were speechless and felt guilty.
Lin Sanqi looked at Fang Sanxiao:
"Lao Fang, tell me what happened. Don't hide anything. I won't wrongly accuse a good person, but I won't let a bad person go either!"
As soon as these murderous words came out, everyone gasped.
Song Xingjian sighed and shook his head, muttering softly:
"You are confused, confused. Don't forget that you are temporary workers now and are being laid off."
Song Xingjian is a pushover, a kindhearted man who still wants to protect his colleagues, but Fang Sanxiao had already fallen out with some of them in Dongyue Temple, and this time he didn't care about their past friendship.
"Dean Lin, this is what happened. While testing the pills, Old Song discovered..."
Lin Sanqi nodded as he listened, and finally repeated it in front of everyone:
"So, instead of the seven-step water-blending method, you guys secretly changed it to three. And with the tofu steaming method, you ate the tofu and directly steamed the pearl powder, right?"
Feng Baode felt guilty at this time. He swallowed and quickly lowered his head.
Yang Jingfeng, however, looked unconvinced: "We are so busy at work every day, so what if we forget to wash four times less?"
Liang Ying rolled his eyes and explained:
"My wife is sick and very weak. I wanted to get some nutritional supplements for her, so I took a piece of tofu, just one piece."
Lin Sanqi looked at Qiu Yu, who was in charge of making tofu. "Old Qiu, I remember I asked you to make 30 blocks of tofu every day. How many blocks do you make a day?"
Qiu Yu quickly stood up and stated:
"Dean Lin, I only make 30 yuan a day, not a penny more or less. It's all recorded in the account book. Old Song also counts it every day. I didn't take a single penny for myself. At most, I ate some tofu dregs."
Lin Sanqi asked again, "In the past, those tofu lost their shape after being steamed several times. How do you usually deal with the tofu that has lost its shape?"
Qiu Yu explained, "I always distribute it to a few old employees and children, and keep accounts every day. But, that was in the past. Now..."
"There's no record keeping now, right? Because the tofu is gone before it even reaches the processing stage. Someone eats it, right?"
“Yes, yes…”
"Who ate it? Old Qiu, I won't make it difficult for you. If you don't tell me today, you'll be fired. If you point it out, the person who ate it will be fired."
Lin Sanqi said the word "dismissal" lightly, and it was like a bolt from the blue exploding over the heads of all the employees.
Old Qiu burst into tears when he heard this:
"I didn't steal any of it. It was Liang Ying, Zhao Jie, Cheng Jiaqian, You Huazhi, and a few others who ate it. I tried to persuade them not to eat it, but they didn't listen. Woo woo woo~~~"
At this time, there was another sound of car brakes at the foot of the mountain, and then Dean Shen's cursing voice was heard from far away.
Lin Sanqi quickly stood up and parted the crowd: "Uncle Shen!"
Dean Shen came in urgently after receiving a call from Lin Sanqi, but his work car was not as good as Lin Sanqi's, so he was a step behind.
Comrade Lao Shen walked into the room and saw Song Xingjian with a broken hand and a group of employees with bruised faces and noses. His face turned ashen.
Fu Hongwei immediately introduced:
"Dean Shen, everyone else only has superficial injuries, but Old Song's hand bones are broken. It's hard to say whether he will be left with a disability."
Dean Shen said nothing, but started walking towards the pharmaceutical workshop with his hands behind his back, and Lin Sanqi hurried to follow.
When I walked into the workshop, I saw that it was a mess. Tools and medicinal materials were scattered all over the floor. Many of them were damaged and could no longer be used, as if the Japanese had raided it.
Dean Shen smiled bitterly: "Finally, this day has come."
Lin Sanqi blinked: "Uncle Shen, did you know there would be a fight today?"
"Ever since they fought over staffing last time, I've known some of the older employees are getting restless. I can only describe them as 'pushing further and further'. But how do we handle this? It's a difficult matter, Xiaoqi."
Lin Sanqi said indifferently:
"When adults do things, they must take full responsibility for their mistakes. Uncle Shen, please don't blame me for being cruel. I have to cut the Gordian knot quickly, otherwise a lot of my precious time will be stuck in this endless wrangling."
(Lin Sanqi was thinking, I traveled through time and space to this era to make money from traffic, not to be a neighborhood committee lady)
"So your good intentions were to not let any of your employees suffer. Perhaps they were grateful last year. But this year, because of the staffing issue, they are resentful and are not even doing their jobs properly.
Look at the medicinal herbs on the ground. I got them with great difficulty, and now they are all wasted. They are all money, and they are non-renewable treasures.
So my opinion is that the employee who beat up Old Song and broke his bones should be sent to the police station and jailed according to the law! Anyone who participated in the brawl today should be fired and sent back to their hometowns in accordance with national policy.
There are still some honest employees left, employees who stand on my side, Lin Sanqi. Since they are loyal to me and I have a lot of positions, I will give them all regular positions and let them work in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department of the Infectious Disease Hospital."
Dean Shen thought to himself that the young man was indeed courageous, unlike him, who was reluctant to give up this or that and only caused trouble for himself.
"What about your plan for making Chinese patent medicine?"
Lin Sanqi actually already had a plan in mind: "Uncle Shen, how about I outsource the production of Chinese patent medicine to your Chinese medicine hospital?"
"Uh, what do you mean?"
"I need some Chinese patent medicine, I specify a quantity, and you guys produce it for me, and I'll use food or other supplies in exchange. This is actually a disguised benefit for the Chinese medicine hospital staff. You can't accuse me, Lin Sanqi, of being ungrateful, right?"
Dean Shen nodded slightly when he heard this:
"This is a good idea. It gives workers the opportunity to earn extra money, so everyone will have enough food to get through this year of natural disasters."
Lin Sanqi nodded. "It's decided then, Uncle Shen. I hope you don't blame me."
Dean Shen sighed again:
"I don't blame you. I understand. A leader must be decisive. Covering up conflicts will only intensify them. But what do you want to announce? Let's talk about it after I leave."
All day long, everyone at Changping Farm was in a state of anxiety. In the evening, a notice was posted in the family compound:
1. Changping Farm was disbanded.
2. Yang Jingfeng and Feng Baode were transferred to the police station for intentional injury.
3. 97 people are included in the clearance list and are required to return home within one week; (list attached)
4. Song Xingjian, Fang Sanxiao and 32 other employees have been converted to regular employees! (List attached)
After receiving this notice, some people beat their chests and stamped their feet, some cried and wiped tears, and some smiled happily. Changping Farm fell into complete madness.
Lin Sanqi did this to prevent honest people from suffering losses and to make speculators pay the price. It was also a warning to others. The staff of the infectious disease hospital should be careful.
Dean Lin's 40-meter-long sword is quite sharp. (End of this chapter)
