He was given a major reprimand and had three months' salary deducted.
Qiao Wanyue's lips unconsciously curled up.
Serves them right.
Qiao Sheng's head was practically buried in the ground.
Wei Kangjian saw the corners of Qiao Wanyue's mouth unconsciously curving upwards and smiled as well.
This little girl is quite vengeful.
Each team leader stood up to give their quarterly summary, and then waited for the leaders' criticism and praise.
After the first few captains stood up, all of them except Qiao Sheng received verbal praise.
Yang Dongliang stood up confidently and recounted their village's development plan over the past three months. He specifically mentioned a name: Qiao Wanyue. From dried vegetables to pastries, paper-cut window decorations, and greenhouses, it all originated from one person—Qiao Wanyue.
Yang Dongliang didn't mind at all that they said he relied on women. These people had been brigade leaders for decades, and they all thought they could just avoid making mistakes and wait until retirement, but that idea was wrong.
If they don't change, their descendants will have to change too.
Grain alone cannot make them rich. Only by changing the minds of these old folks and taking action can we lead the villagers to prosperity and a better life.
Xiahou Xing: "Easier said than done. You'll be the one to take the blame when the hat comes off?"
Yang Dongliang wasn't angry. He used his own village as an example, saying, "The ingredients we use for dried vegetables are just green beans and cabbage, which every household has. Our village cadres connect with the channels to exchange these things for money and distribute the money to the villagers. This is clearly making the best use of resources. How is it a violation of policy?"
"You call this a capitalist, it's all about the black market, Yang Dongliang. It's one thing for you to make a mistake, but to lead everyone else to make mistakes at the meeting, what are you up to?" Xiahou Xing raged.
Yang Dongliang wasn't angry. He knew that to make changes, he had to change conservatives like Xiahou Xing first. He said calmly, "Captain Xia, I take from the people and use for the people. May I ask if a single penny has ended up in my pocket?"
Our village collective's profits reached three thousand yuan in three months. Every household had clothes that didn't need patching, and everyone was eating white flour steamed buns. Our children started primary school. Tell me, what mistake did I, Yang Dongliang, make?
“Dongliang is right,” Wei Kangjian said at the opportune moment.
Xiahou Xing frowned. "Boss, you might make a mistake if you're not careful."
Wei Kangjian understood what Xiahou Xing meant.
"Always worried about making mistakes, when will we ever get rich? Worried about this, worried about that, I think you should be replaced as the brigade leader with someone braver. And you even said that the young girl was scared out of her wits."
I think you're not even as brave as that young girl.
Xiahou Xing's face turned pale.
This is to avenge Qiao Wanyue.
Wei Kangjian turned to Qiao Wanyue and said, "Dongliang, please sit down."
"Wanyue, what are your thoughts?"
Qiao Wanyue got up, but Wei Kangjian stopped her.
"Let's sit and chat. Everyone has finished speaking. I'd like to hear what you have to say."
Qiao Wanyue thought for a moment, "Dahe Commune is not as advantageous as other communes. We have brigades with the worst land and brigades with the best land. Everyone is doing very well, making the most of their own advantages."
But some of the battalion commanders are too narrow-minded. She glanced at Xiahou Xing silently, the answer to whom was obvious.
Xiahou Xing was full of resentment.
I dare not post it.
"But we can't blame him. Everyone is scared and would rather play it safe than take risks. But in this era, we can't move forward if we don't take risks. The disadvantages are already in front of us, and we can only turn our disadvantages into advantages."
"Oh, what advantages?"
Qiao Wanyue took out her own paper from her pocket; the paper was covered with dense writing.
Yang Dongliang was completely dumbfounded.
When did she prepare it?
Wei Kangjian took the paper, his eyes shining even brighter.
The paper listed all ten brigades of the commune, along with the advantages and disadvantages of each brigade. For example, the Gengjia brigade had steep terrain, making the land unsuitable for growing grain.
But it is suitable for growing fruit trees.
