Chapter 154 Meeting 3



A middle-aged man in his 50s was embarrassed by what Wu Huimin said and retorted, "You little girl, don't speak so harshly. What do you mean by seizing power? The captain brought this matter up in public so that everyone can discuss it. Why can't we have other opinions? If that's the case, why bring it up? The captain and his team can just make a decision and then inform everyone."

"That's it. Discussion, discussion. Just talk together. If you don't allow people to talk, what's the point of discussing?"

"You are really a little girl. You are just standing there and jumping up and down."

"If you don't have any beard on your lips, you can't do things well..."

At this time, anyone who had some other thoughts in mind would come forward and say a few words.

"It sounds nice, but who doesn't know who? You just want to take advantage of Comrade Ruan because he's young." Chen Zhao was not a very tolerant person. Seeing his friend being bullied like this, he couldn't sit still. "If everyone is so capable, no one can accomplish this before. You only come out to talk nonsense after others have done it. I really learned a lot. You are really thick-skinned."

People just like to deceive themselves. They can do shameless things, but others cannot tell others about it. It's as if as long as others don't tell others about it, it won't be so shameless.

"Who are you talking about?!" There were more than one person who was stepped on by Chen Zhao, and now they all directed their anger at Chen Zhao.

"You are not even from our village, what qualifications do you have to speak here?!"

"That's right, you are just an educated youth, you have nothing to do with our village. Our village has a processing factory, what qualifications do you educated youth have to speak!"

"You young man, do you still know how to respect the elderly? You actually speak like this..."

For a moment, all the criticism was directed at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhaocai is not afraid. He can be friends with Qin Zheng, a real tiger, so why would he be afraid of these paper tigers?

He acted nonchalant and ignored those who verbally attacked him.

For a moment, the whole open space was filled with angry voices cursing Chen Zhao. For female lesbians, they might have to be a little bit cautious about the impact, but Chen Zhao was a man, so there was no need to be cautious at all. It was normal to get angry and take action.

"Enough!" Seeing that the words were getting more and more unpleasant, the team leader could not help it. He interrupted the people who were about to continue speaking with a sneer. "Look at you! You are getting older and older, and the words you say are getting more and more unpleasant. And who told you that the educated youth are not from our village? ! As long as the household registration is in the team, and the food supply is in the team. Then you are a member of our village! As long as you are from our village, you have the right to speak!"

Seeing the captain getting angry, everyone present immediately quieted down.

The captain usually doesn't get angry very often, but once he does, everyone gets a little scared.

He looked around, looked at everyone present, and asked, "Besides Comrade Lu Xiulan, who else opposes Ruan Mianmian as the factory director? Raise your hand."

A bunch of people were talking about this just now, but this time it was time to vote by raising hands, and many people were too timid to dare to do anything.

Only a few older people who felt they had some influence in the village and had the support of some relatives and clansmen raised their hands.

Seeing that there were seven or eight people supporting her, Lu Xiulan was happy.

Even though there are only seven or eight people on the surface, they also have relatives and friends behind them. If you connect them one after another, there are quite a few people.

The captain called out the names of these seven or eight people and then wrote them down in his work notebook.

Others couldn't figure out why he did this, but subconsciously they felt that having their name noted was not a good thing.

Someone immediately complained, "Hey, Captain, why are you memorizing names?"

"Nothing, I'm just old and my memory is not very good. I wrote it down because I'm afraid I'll forget it later." The team leader said as he wrote, "Wait for me to finish. Let's learn from the other communes and hold a voting election. All of you should participate. Whoever gets the most votes will be the factory director."

The person who asked the question thought that this was a good idea. If there was a vote, whoever got the most votes would go in. Then the little girl Ruan Mianmian would definitely not get as many votes as the old men in the village.

"Okay, Captain, you must remember it carefully. Don't write the name wrong."

The captain ignored him and wrote down the seven or eight names who raised their hands at his own pace.

Those who wanted to compete looked at each other, exchanged a look that showed they understood each other, and then whispered something to the people around them.

Then a few young people quietly left the square and ran towards the village.

After writing the name carefully, the captain put away the pen, then continued to speak with the broken loudspeaker, "Since everyone is arguing about the factory director's matter, we will talk about it later and finish the other things first."

This time no one in the audience had any objections.

Everyone listened quietly.

The processing plant site was requisitioned from Old Yang's dilapidated house and the two adjacent houses.

The three households connected together were all empty, and the houses had been vacant. The other two were smaller and more dilapidated, and were not even qualified to be used as firewood sheds.

But the processing plant needs space, and as for the house, it will be torn down and rebuilt anyway. It doesn't matter whether it is broken or not.

No one had any objection to this location. There were fewer people living there anyway, so it wouldn't cause any problems.

Now that there is no objection to the address, the next thing to discuss is the manpower and money for building the house.

All the workers were selected from the village, young and strong, with good character. Those street urchins and lazy people were not considered at all. Those who had a bad record of causing trouble were not accepted either. A total of 25 people were selected. The factory building was expected to be completed within seven days, including demolition and construction.

Each person selected will be given ten work points per day, plus an additional 20 cents in wages.

Work points are settled together at the end of the year, while wages are paid when the work is completed.

Those who used to recruit cats and dogs to fight in the village were not happy to hear this. How come they were not even qualified to be selected? !

But, they are only a minority after all.

There were 25 in total, and they couldn't take all the good ones, not to mention the crooked ones. So their protest didn't make any waves at all.
