Chapter 284: Abdication
However, Wang Daxian, who had been about to give up his seat, blinked at Jingshu at this time. Jingshu wondered if Wang Daxian knew something in advance.
Knowing that the tobacco she grew would be in demand, he wanted to befriend her in advance? That's right, regardless of whether Wang Daxian wanted the position or not, he was already the designated vice president. This was purely a formality, so it wouldn't be a problem for him to teach her in advance... Jing Shu shook her head and put the matter behind her for the time being.
"Ahem, that's the message above. Looks like everyone's going to have to work overtime again from today onwards. I won't elaborate on the importance of this document. The headquarters competition happens once a year and determines the subsequent allocation of strategic supplies, as well as your treatment. If you pass the initial test, you'll get more resources and better treatment. If you fail the initial test, you'll have fewer resources, you know...
"Okay, let's get the vice-chairman's decision down first, and then we can talk about other things. Jingshu, go ahead and say a few words. Don't waste everyone's time. After all, we have a lot of work to do next. As usual, the more you complete, the greater your share. Whoever plants more will get the resources divided accordingly." Zhou Paopi said, showing his yellow teeth.
"Okay." Jingshu smiled. At this moment, she was confident of winning. She had never expected that God would help her so much. She thought it would take at least a month for the bugs to run rampant before she could show off. She didn't expect that the higher-ups would issue a document so early to prevent this from happening.
In her previous life, Wu Cheng probably did not complete the preliminary test. Will she change the course of history in this life?
"There are dozens of medicinal herbs here, but I don't have any seeds for a single one. It's over."
"Ever since the seed storage station was flooded, the seeds we salvaged have all been damp, and the germination rate is less than one in ten. Why not try your luck again?"
"But we don't have time to wait any longer. How about asking Jingshu for some seeds? Her seeds are really good. Not to mention she's really good at growing them. But Jingshu is really lucky. The tobacco on the plantation is already mature. I guess the first test depends on her."
"I have to admire her. With tobacco, it seems she has no choice but to be vice president."
The noise in the audience gradually died down.
Jing Shu cleared her throat and said, "Then let me just say a few words. I accidentally planted too much tobacco. You can see that the seeds are plump and have a very high germination rate. If you elect me as vice president, I can distribute tobacco seeds and help guide you if you have any problems. By the way, those who previously said that my tobacco planting was worthless will not be included in the distribution. That's all."
Pharmacist Liu's face turned pale. This man was really vindictive!
Excited shouts rang out from the audience. It didn't really make much difference to them who became the vice president, but if Jingshu could distribute seeds and provide guidance on difficult problems as the vice president, there would be nothing better than this.
Wang Daxian took the microphone and said with a smile: "President Zhou, I think we should not vote. It's a waste of time. Let's just elect Jingshu as vice president. She is really good at growing tobacco. If we all grow tobacco together and have her guidance, then we won't need to prepare other medicinal herbs. We can directly make insecticide. Then we may be able to pass the preliminary examination easily."
Zhou Paopi chuckled and said, "That depends on the opinions of the leaders who came to inspect today."
Dean Zhang, with his belly bulging, smiled like K's grandfather and said, "I agree that Jingshu should be the vice president. She's really good at planting. With her around, we'll definitely be able to secure a lot of resources for the Wucheng Medicinal Materials Association this time. This contribution will definitely be enough to make up for other shortcomings."
Pharmacist Liu had a gloomy face and forced a smile: "Then we have to ask if anyone disagrees."
Zhou Paopi was grinning from ear to ear, "Is there anyone down there who disagrees?"
Who would be so foolish as to disagree and not want the seeds?
"Me!" Jiaojiao stood up and walked onto the stage. The word "me" attracted everyone.
Zhou Paopi frowned, "Why don't you agree?"
"Presidents, what Jingshu grows belongs to the Medicinal Materials Association, so the tobacco she grows should be under the control of the Medicinal Materials Association. It should be collected directly and then distributed directly to everyone.
Isn't it the right thing to do to contribute to the Materials Association?
"If we don't vote for her, won't everyone get their share of tobacco seeds? It originally belonged to the Pharmacist Association, so why would we need her approval? In that case, the selection of a vice president has nothing to do with this matter. Elder Wang has more authority, and I think he's better suited to lead us." Jiaojiao spoke eloquently, a hint of pride in her words.
Everyone understood what Wang Jiaojiao said. Once the herbs from the Medicinal Materials Association were grown, they would have nothing to do with Jingshu, so she had no authority to distribute the herb seeds.
Wang Daxian stood up at this moment and said with a smile: "Little girl, how about you come to work and make contributions without getting paid?"
"Well, how can that be possible?"
Isn’t the purpose of work to get paid? Otherwise, who would go to work?
Jing Shu stepped forward and said with a smile, "The Herbal Medicine Association stipulates that if you use your own seeds, then the herbs you grow must be turned in according to your contribution points, but the seeds they grow still belong to the owner. Sorry, I brought these seeds with me. I can turn in the tobacco in exchange for contribution points, but the seeds are all mine. I have no obligation to contribute them."
Jiaojiao frowned and said, "Impossible, when did this rule come into being?"
Jingshu's lips curled up slightly. This was something she had specifically asked Zhou Paopi about two months ago. After all, she could accept that the things she planted were public property, but the seeds she brought with her would have to be returned to her after the things were grown.
Later, Zhou Paopi said that in order to increase the enthusiasm of employees, they were allowed to keep the seeds they brought with them, and this clause was added to the new regulations. However, the employees could not get more seeds, so not many people knew about this rule.
"I added this two months ago, and the three vice presidents all agreed." Zhou Paopi stood up and said.
Jiaojiao's face turned pale and she fell backwards. There were all kinds of complaints from people below, saying that Jiaojiao was meddling in other people's business and making Jingshu angry. If she didn't distribute the seeds, no one would be able to do anything to her.
"So is there anyone who still objects?...Well, that's great. Now President Tie has something to announce to everyone." Zhou Paopi grinned.
President Tie took a deep breath. "After today's assessment, we know Jingshu is capable of taking the helm as vice president, and Elder Wang is absolutely qualified to be vice president. However, Wucheng has limited vacancies, and I can't let the Wucheng Medicinal Materials Association decline. So, I've decided... to step down! I'll step down and work at a second-tier pharmaceutical factory, handing over the important responsibilities to more capable people."
