Chapter 164 I won't go no matter what.
The news that Li Zhengtian and his brother had failed to kill Hei Xiazi Cang but were instead injured by Hei Xiazi had spread throughout the entire mountain camp by evening.
When everyone was eating in the cafeteria after get off work that evening, they were all talking about this.
"Hey? Xiping, aren't you pretty good at hunting? Why don't you go into the mountains and kill that black bear?"
Otherwise, we wouldn't feel at ease working here."
As these people chatted, someone noticed Sheng Xiping.
“What’s unsettling? There are chainsaws, tractors, and winches in the logging area.”
"With such a commotion, do you think the black bear is stupid? It wouldn't go into the logging area for no reason; it'd be courting death!"
Sheng Xiping was eating when he heard this and snorted.
Most animals are actually afraid of people, especially the noise of machines. Wild animals in the mountains are even more afraid of them, so why would they deliberately approach them?
This time, Li Zhengtian brought it upon himself. If he had just stayed at the logging site and worked properly, nothing would have happened.
“Winter production is a major event. If production is delayed, how can we explain it to the farm?”
"You think I'm so bored I have nothing better to do? Going off to fight black bears?"
Sheng Xiping enjoys hunting, but he can distinguish between primary and secondary activities.
The most important thing right now is logging, is increasing timber production. While everyone else is working hard, why is he, the team leader, going hunting?
Regardless of whether he can actually hit the target, what will people think of him if word gets out?
Li Zhengtian sneaked out to hunt during work hours, causing serious consequences. It's still unknown how the field and the bureau will handle this.
At this point, if Sheng Xiping were to go hunting again, wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?
If he really wants to play, he'll have to wait until the holidays.
There are huge forests all over the mountains, what can't we hunt? Why do we have to fight that black bear to the death?
This autumn and winter, Sheng Xiping has already been in the spotlight enough, so this situation is actually not good.
Others may not necessarily have bad intentions or want to harm anyone, but they are definitely envious and jealous.
Sheng Xiping understood this principle well, so he wouldn't deliberately show off at this time. He would just honestly work on the mountain.
When others heard Sheng Xiping say this, they didn't know whether they were disappointed or had other feelings, but they all felt disheartened.
After chatting for a while, they all went back to rest.
Just as Sheng Xiping returned to his dormitory and was about to rest, Sheng Liancheng, who was watching the generator, came looking for his son.
"Hey, no matter who tells you they want you to go fight the black bear, don't just agree on a whim."
You're leading a team to work right now. Regardless of whether your educated youth team are formal employees or not, logging is the most important thing right now.
Your performance will be recorded in your personnel files, and it will affect your future recruitment and other employment opportunities.
Sheng Liancheng had obviously also heard about the incident of Hei Xiazi injuring people.
He was afraid that his eldest son, being young and impetuous, and fond of adventure and excitement, would abandon his work and go hunting as soon as he heard about black bears.
"We don't know how the venue will determine the outcome of Li Zhengtian's case; there's a good chance it will lead to further disputes."
Let's not show off at a time like this.
Sheng Liancheng meant that if Li Zhengtian got injured while hunting during work hours, his employer might not recognize it as a work-related injury.
The family will definitely disagree, and there will be a lot of trouble afterwards.
This year has been a year of many misfortunes for Qianchuan Forest Farm, with a series of injuries and deaths. The leaders must be in a state of utter chaos and confusion.
If Sheng Xiping were to abandon his work to go hunting at this point, it would only be adding fuel to the fire.
If things go wrong, the boss might get angry and give you a disciplinary action.
"Dad, I know, don't worry, I definitely won't go."
Sheng Xiping laughed when he heard this. Was he such a clueless person?
Although he didn't think much of the work at the forest farm, he had to do his best for his parents' sake.
He had caused his parents heartache in his past life, even jeopardizing his mother's life, so of course he had to learn from his mistakes and not let his parents worry.
Sheng Liancheng knew that his eldest son was reliable, but he was still a little worried, so he came over to give him some advice.
Since his son made it clear that he wouldn't fight the black bear, Sheng Liancheng was relieved.
As Sheng Liancheng had predicted, early the next morning, several key leaders from the farm came up the mountain and held an impromptu meeting with the workers stationed there.
The meeting repeatedly emphasized that no one is allowed to leave their post during working hours, and anyone found doing so will be severely punished.
After the meeting, Zhou Qinglan picked up Sheng Xiping at the airport and repeatedly told him not to go.
"Yes, I know what's important, so don't worry."
You're measuring independently now, right? How's it going? Is the work going smoothly?
Sheng Xiping hadn't seen Zhou Qinglan for a while, mainly because Zhou Qinglan didn't have to live on the mountain and commute every day.
When Zhou Qinglan arrived on the commuter bus in the morning, Sheng Xiping had already gone up the mountain with the construction team.
When Zhou Qinglan got off work in the evening, Sheng Xiping and the others had not yet arrived at the camp.
If it weren't for the meeting today, Zhou Qinglan wouldn't have seen Sheng Xiping.
"It's great, everyone takes good care of me." Zhou Qinglan smiled when she talked about work.
She's highly educated and quick-witted; the simple task of measuring a ruler is no challenge for her.
After two months of training, the master said that Zhou Qinglan was ready to graduate and that he could test her own abilities.
The people working at the workshop all knew that Zhou Qinglan was Sheng Xiping's girlfriend, and besides, she was still a young, unmarried woman.
Those rough men didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of Zhou Qinglan; everyone was quite civilized.
"Okay, that's good. If anything happens, or if anyone bullies you, just tell me and I'll help you get revenge."
