"What? I was even on the People's Daily? How is that possible?"

Yu Donghai picked up the newspaper and looked through it, looking at the current affairs page, then the economic page, and then the cultural page, but after looking for a long time, he still couldn't find it.

“Here!”

Yang Songquan became impatient and turned to the "supplement" page, pointing at the article.

"Why does the road of life become narrower and narrower as we walk along it..."

After reading it, Yu Donghai felt a buzzing in his head, staggered, and almost fainted!

When he said "let's hold a meeting to study it", he was just trying to tempt Lin Zhengjun to surrender, and he didn't say he would not pay compensation.

You are just an ordinary citizen, and it is not embarrassing for you to come to me to report your difficulties.

You were crying, and I sympathized with the members and would scold my subordinates and collect the money, or directly use public funds to pay you back.

You recovered your losses and I saved face. Isn't this the best of both worlds?

Who would have known that Lin Zhengjun didn't play by the rules at all. He just overturned the table and didn't care about those jars and pots at all!

"Is that true?"

Seeing that he had finished reading and put down the newspaper in a daze, Yang Songquan asked in a cold voice.

“Basically… true.”

"What do you mean by basically true? If it is true, it is true. If it is not true, it is not true!"

"We launched a special operation to crack down on unlicensed inter-county transportation. The joint defense team took away their animal carts and also took some fish, but there was no way it was 1,000 kilograms. There were only about 100 kilograms in total. What he wrote... It's directly ten times more!"

At this moment, Yu Donghai felt like a resentful woman in the boudoir, extremely aggrieved, and even spoke with a crying tone!

The CPPCC leader and Yu Donghai are old friends, and he spoke for him, saying, "Old Yu's ideas are conservative, but his style is still strong, he won't tell lies!"

Yang Songquan was so angry that he turned around and scratched his head, then pointed at Yu Donghai's nose and cursed: "What's the point of what you said?"

"You were wrong from the moment you stopped the car and confiscated the money! You messed with the wrong person!"

"They are clearly framing you, trying to trick you, and blackmailing you, but what can you do?"

"Why don't you go to the provincial government or the People's Daily to complain? You said you only shared 100 kilograms of fish, not 1,000 kilograms. Who would pay attention to you? Who cares?"

"Besides, who would believe you if you just said that? You said you divided 100 kilograms, but where is the evidence? Who can testify for you?"

Yu Donghai was filled with grief and indignation, his eyes filled with tears, and he muttered in a low voice: "This is too much, too much, isn't this bullying an honest person?"

"Who told you to be so blind and bully others first?"

Yang Songquan cursed: "Look at you, you are already old and should retire, but you just eat and wait for death for a year, why do you still work!"

"Now you're famous all over the country, notorious. Not only you and that joint defense team member, but even I will be scolded!"

Yu Donghai was confused and asked, "County Governor, what do you think we should do?"

"What else can I do?"

Yang Songquan said viciously: "The bad influence has been caused, someone has to be held responsible. First, hold a review meeting, you review and criticize yourself, and submit a written report to the county and city. The higher-ups will definitely come to investigate soon!"

"And those few joint defense members, fire them all!"

Yu Donghai nodded repeatedly, immediately picked up a pen and paper and wrote a profound self-criticism.

Yang Songquan immediately convened a work meeting, criticized Yu Donghai and the joint defense team members for their actions, and announced on the spot

And several joint defense team members were relieved of their duties.

They were all stunned, as if they had lost their parents. They never expected that catching a few fish would lead to such consequences!

regret!

At this moment, their hearts were filled with regret, which could not be washed away even with all the water in the three rivers and five seas!

If they were given another chance, they would never do that again. They would even hold the horses' stirrups, escort them along the way, and become voluntary workers for the cooperative!

It’s a pity that it’s too late to say anything!

After the meeting, Yang Songquan sorted out the written materials and asked the clerk to send them to the city immediately to let the superiors know his attitude of actively making corrections!

In fact, he guessed that this matter had alarmed the provincial government, but there was nothing he could do. He was not qualified to admit his mistake to the province and could only report it step by step.

Yang Songquan squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then said, "This alone is not enough. The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Lin Zhengjun was the one who pushed for the publication of the article and caused the bad influence. Only he can eliminate the bad influence!"

Several leaders nodded.

"That's right! Let's make good changes and correct our mistakes!"

Yang Songquan raised his hand and pointed at Yu Donghai, saying, "Come on, you and I will go find Lin Zhengjun to apologize and admit our mistakes. You pay the money and give him 1,000 kilograms of fish as compensation!"

"Me? Everyone has eaten it!" Yu Donghai's heart was bleeding and the corners of his mouth twitched.

1,000 kilograms of fish would cost more than 300 yuan, which is equivalent to half a year's salary. It's too much!

"Haha, you can ask everyone to join together, but do you still have the nerve to work in Baligou Commune?" Yang Songquan sneered.

Yu Donghai's scalp tingled, and he said reluctantly: "But that's too much, it's increased tenfold, it was only about thirty yuan to begin with."

"I'm telling you, you better straighten your attitude!"

Yang Songquan got angry, put his hands on his waist and shouted: "If you don't handle this matter well, you will be fired from your public office and you won't even get your pension!"

Yu Donghai was so frightened that his whole body shuddered, and he said hurriedly: "I'll go! I'll go! Don't worry, I will definitely correct my attitude!"

…

Lin family, new house in the back mountain.

Lin Hongyu's face was covered with a fine layer of sweat, but she counted the bills in her hand over and over again with great interest.

Then, she patted a thick stack of banknotes and said with a smile: "In the past two days, I have collected more than 1,000 kilograms of dried chilies and various seasonings, and just handed them over to the factory. The total profit is more than 60 yuan, which is 30 yuan a day!"

Beside them, Lin Sanhuai and Zhang Shuqin were both shocked.

"Earning so much?" Lin Sanhuai couldn't believe it and confirmed again.

"Dried chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and star anise are all cheap, but the profit margins are huge, reaching 40 to 50 percent."

Lin Hongyu said: "Seasonings are not necessities. Ordinary people are too short of money. As long as you are willing to accept them, he will sell them all to you even if you don't eat them yourself!"

"This is a great business!" Zhang Shuqin said happily.

Lin Sanhuai said: "That's not bad. If you make thirty yuan a day, you can make thousands of yuan a month!"

Lin Zhengjun, who was sitting in the yard studying and basking in the sun, smiled and said, "You are really good. You can collect so much in just two days!"

"I have a way!"

Lin Hongyu smiled and said, "I went to the supply and marketing cooperatives in all the towns and villages in Luoshan County and asked them to put up signs and help me collect them!"

"Supply and marketing cooperatives generally don't accept this," Tang Xiaofu interrupted.

These seasonings are not unified purchase and sale materials. Whether the supply and marketing cooperatives accept them depends on market demand!

In the countryside, every household grows crops, and even if the commune’s supply and marketing cooperatives harvest them, they cannot sell them.

Generally, only the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county would collect some to sell to the residents of the county.

"No, but I give them benefits. If they help me collect 100 kilograms, I will give them 50 cents as a reward."

Lin Hongyu said: "I don't need to walk around the streets, I can just go to each commune every now and then!"

"Wow, you can do it! You can even build channels!" Lin Zhengjun laughed.

Lin Hongyu has this convenient condition.

Tao Yaowu was a truck driver for the county's state-owned transportation company, and Tao Hailong was the leader of a state-owned factory. They both had some face in front of the leaders of various communes in Luoshan County.

Lin Hongyu was not polite at all and made full use of her connections.

It can even be said that even if there was no such relationship, Lin Hongyu was good at scheming and could have accomplished this task with her clever words and money.
