Wu Dagang's words made the people in the Youth League Institute feel nervous. The consequences of being sent back to the Youth League Office were very serious.
In particular, comments that hinder autumn harvest work may even affect their lives.
Just based on that one comment, they will never be able to return to the city in their lifetime.
Wu Dagang's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of every educated youth hard.
Their originally excited emotions cooled down instantly as if they were poured with a bucket of cold water.
The educated youth looked at each other in bewilderment, and their initial protests gradually died down as they began to realize the serious consequences that their actions might bring.
Being sent back to the Youth League Office means that they will lose the opportunity to reform themselves and accumulate experience in the relatively mild environment of Dabazi Village.
They will be reassigned, possibly to places with even more difficult conditions, such as the remote northwest or remote frontier farms.
"If we were sent back, we might have to go to places that are even more difficult."
An educated youth whispered, with a hint of fear in his voice.
"I heard that some people were sent to farms on the edge of the desert. The conditions there were terrible and life was extremely difficult."
Another educated youth added, a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
"Others were sent to plateau areas, where the climate is cold and the oxygen is thin, which is a huge test for the body."
Another educated youth said that it was obvious that they had realized the seriousness of the problem.
The educated youth began to exchange stories they had heard with each other. The people in these stories were sent to places with harsh conditions for various reasons, and their lives were full of challenges and difficulties.
Some educated youth showed expressions of regret and fear on their faces. They had not expected that their protest would turn into such a situation.
Wu Dagang stood on the stage, his eyes sweeping across the young faces. Seeing the educated youth retreat, his expression became friendly again.
He knew that these young people needed not only stern warnings, but also corresponding care.
"You are all educated youth who went to the countryside to receive re-education from the middle peasants. You have just arrived in the countryside, so it is normal that you cannot adapt for a while."
Wu Dagang's voice sounded again, this time his tone became more friendly, and a good-natured expression appeared on his face again.
"We also understand that you face many challenges and difficulties coming here from the city. After discussion, the production team has decided to make some adjustments to your work arrangements."
When the educated youth heard this, they were delighted and the tense atmosphere eased a little.
"First, we will re-evaluate the workload to ensure that the tasks assigned to you are reasonable and will not exceed your physical endurance," Wu Dagang continued.
Zhou Weiguo also added: "Secondly, we will arrange more rest time to ensure that you have enough time to adapt to the environment and recover your strength."
"certainly."
Zhou Weiguo changed the subject, "Since the work is easier, everyone will get fewer work points. We should do the work according to our ability. We are a collective in Dabazicun. Those who perform well will get more work points, and those who perform poorly will get fewer. It's fair and just."
When Zhou Weiguo mentioned that work points would be allocated based on work performance, the expressions of the educated youth became complicated.
They knew that the number of work points they earned was directly related to how much food and money they could get after the autumn harvest.
If they don't have enough food and money, and their families can't provide support, they will have a hard time in the coming year.
Everyone knew that they had to work hard under the new arrangement to ensure that they could earn enough work points.
Wu Dagang noticed the concerns of the educated youth and added gently, "Please rest assured, we will ensure that the work arrangements are fair. As long as you do your best, you don't have to worry about the work points."
After listening to Wu Dagang's words, the educated youth's anxiety gradually subsided.
They began to realize that although the conditions were difficult, as long as they adapted and worked hard, they still had a chance to achieve good results.
Wu Dagang and Zhou Weiguo used both offensive and defensive tactics to eliminate the dissatisfaction of the educated youth in just one meeting.
It also eliminated the outburst of the educated youth in the bud.
Zhou Ziwen felt that this result was not unexpected.
He was very familiar with Wu Dagang and Zhou Weiguo, and knew their methods.
As the meeting ended, the educated youth began to disperse gradually.
"Is this the end?"
Zhou Chaoyang on the side was a little surprised.
"What else? Are we really going to send these troublemaking educated youth back to the Educated Youth Office?"
Zhou Ziwen asked back unhappily.
Zhou Chaoyang was speechless when Zhou Ziwen asked him this question. He scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "I thought there would be some big move."
Zhou Ziwen shook his head and explained, "A big move? No need. Wu Dagang and Captain Zhou are both experienced leaders. They know how to handle this situation. It's normal for the educated youth to feel uncomfortable when they first arrive. The key is to make them understand their responsibilities and position."
Chen Shiying also chimed in, "Yes, I think Wu Dagang and Captain Zhou handled the situation very well this time. They both gave the educated youth a warning and a chance to correct their mistakes. This way, they maintained order in the production team while also taking the educated youth's feelings into consideration."
Zhou Ziwen looked at the educated youth who were gradually dispersing, but shook his head in his heart.
Since you have come to the countryside, you must be prepared to endure hardships.
This is how he went when he first went to the countryside.
It's just that he was too outstanding and had strong physical fitness, so he didn't have to suffer much.
"Okay, let's go back and rest. We still have to work tomorrow." Zhou Ziwen invited the two sisters and Shen Zhaodi to go home.
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning, Zhou Ziwen got up as usual.
After getting up, he opened the auto-switch panel and took a look.
[Politics LV8] (8/800)
In the panel, political skills have reached level eight.
Before, Zhou Ziwen didn’t think political skills were useful, but after his political skills reached a higher level, he realized that his understanding was somewhat one-sided.
For individuals, studying politics can help them understand the rules governing social operations and how public affairs are managed.
In addition, you can also understand the country's political direction through information.
Level 8 political skills allow him to analyze the international political situation, follow policies, and find opportunities from them.
Of course, this skill can also help him pass the exam.
After a few years, when the college entrance examination is resumed, it will not be a problem to pass the exam, let alone get a full score.
Zhou Ziwen closed the idle panel and gained more insights into the further application of political skills.
After his skills reached level eight, he had a clearer understanding of the national situation and changes, and his sensitivity to politics became more acute.
At this time, the morning light had already shone into the house through the curtains. Zhou Ziwen got up and started his morning exercise for the new day.
He performed a set of Xingyiquan in the yard. His movements were smooth and his breathing was even. In the yard, he was like a unique landscape, unconsciously attracting people's attention.
Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi also got up and joined in the morning exercises.
The three of them formed a harmonious scene in the courtyard, the gentle movements of Tai Chi appearing particularly tranquil in the morning light. (End of this chapter)
