Chapter 1019 Pass
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire conference room fell silent.
Although there are relevant regulations, they deviate from conventional ideas and have therefore not been highly regarded in the past.
Soon after Minister Zhan finished speaking, someone immediately retorted:
"I object! We are a socialist country led by workers and peasants. If we really let people like this in, what will happen? How will it be different from those capitalist countries abroad?"
When Minister Zhan first discovered this regulation, he thought that some people might have such concerns.
Minister Zhan had already prepared a plan in his mind and said immediately:
"You all adhere to the nature of our country and traditional concepts, and your original aspirations are valuable. However, the current international situation is complex, and traditional models are unable to cope with challenges. Comrade Lu has outstanding innovative thinking and resource integration capabilities, and is a talent that is urgently needed to tackle new challenges."
Minister Zhan looked around at everyone and continued to express his opinion:
"Capitalism honors capital and exploits the people, but we are a communist country led by workers and peasants, with institutional foundations and ideological guidance! Moreover, the regulations just mentioned use 'businessmen' as an example. Comrade Lu's actual situation is far from reaching that level!"
Minister Zhan spoke loudly, closed his eyes and calmed down for a moment, then said in a deep voice:
"I firmly believe that Comrade Lu will take responsibility and move forward courageously within the framework of communist society, strictly abide by the Party's discipline and the laws of the country, put the interests of the people and the country first, and serve the people wholeheartedly!"
There is no point in just arguing below, the final decision must be made through voting.
After Minister Zhan finished speaking, he looked directly at the leader at one end of the long table.
The others followed his gaze and looked over there as well.
The square-faced leader pondered for a moment and said calmly:
"Vote, raise your hands if you agree."
As soon as the words were spoken, Minister Zhan was the first to raise his hand.
There was a murmur in the conference room, and others followed suit and expressed their opinions.
One, two, three, four... eighty, ninety...
Minister Zhan looked around and counted nervously.
Others are like him.
But after counting, everyone's eyes turned to the position of the chief leader again.
Seventeen to seventeen, the votes are tied!
Now, just waiting for the watch to respond!
Everyone is silently waiting for this crucial vote!
The top leader opened the lid of the enamel cup with the red star badge, took a sip of water from the cup, and watched everyone's reactions calmly.
There is an even higher level above the upper level.
Since this regulation was approved in the first place, it means that the leaders above them had already considered this aspect...
After considering the feasibility and thinking it over, the leader put down the enamel pot and raised his hand slowly but straightly:
"I agree."
The sound was not loud, but it was enough to make the whole audience burst into an uproar.
Eighteen more votes than seventeen, passed!
Everyone was shocked and surprised, but at this point, the matter was already a done deal.
As expected, the chief monk put down his pen, closed the notebook in front of him and said:
"If there is nothing else to point out, today's meeting ends here."
The others didn't say anything, but followed suit and began to put away the things in front of them.
At this moment, Minister Zhan, who was in the middle, knocked on the table and waited for everyone's attention to gather around him before speaking again:
"Here is a data report from the Canton Fair collected by the British Press. I hope everyone can sit down and listen to me for a few more minutes. There is another matter that needs your help..."
…
In the southern province of H, after summarizing his first experience, Lu Miao's second attempt at making a silk fan went much more smoothly.
However, although it was done, I was still new to this, so there were still some problems with the finished product.
Lu Miao always goes by his feeling. Only when he has almost finished wrapping an area will he adjust the silk thread and continue wrapping it slowly upwards or downwards.
Because I don’t quite understand when is the best time to adjust the silk thread.
As a result, the fan frame of the final product is still a little twisted and deformed.
Fortunately, it was not serious. Lu Miao put it under the bed for one night, and it returned to its original state when he took it out the next day.
Lu Miao fanned himself with a silk fan while chewing a pink, pleasingly colored peach. He couldn't help but sigh:
“It works pretty well!”
Chen Guifen looked at her with a smile, then lowered her head to cut the peach into small pieces. She handed one to Bai Chuan before saying,
"What's so good about it? It's only a little prettier than a palm-leaf fan. I just tried it, and it didn't really blow any air. It's hard to believe you've been struggling for several days."
Lu Miao's mouth was stuffed with a peach, and he spoke incoherently:
"As long as it looks good, it's not hot staying indoors anyway. I just like things that look good!"
Chen Guifen laughed at her unconventional ideas, but since she had known her for a while, she didn't think it was a big deal.
After resting for a while after lunch, Tian Guihua also went out to work in the afternoon, but not to the fields, but to the orchard.
Starting from the end of June, the peaches and plums in the village orchards began to turn red.
The sunshine gets stronger day by day, and the sweetness of the fruit increases.
Hu Zhiyuan had already informed the agricultural and sideline products station, and these days every afternoon there are special people riding bicycles to the village to pick up a few loads of fruit.
It is not yet the peak season for fruit ripening, and a few loads of fruit are sold slowly every day, so there is no need to worry about sales for the time being.
It’s just that things in the countryside can’t be sold at a good price.
Last year, Lu Miao bought local Pinggu peaches in northern Beijing for 22 cents per pound.
The village gardens are now picking particularly juicy peaches, but the agricultural and sideline products station only gives them three and a half cents per pound when they come to buy them.
Some that are a little smaller or have been cracked while being picked should not be kept.
What Lu Miao has been eating recently are the ones that have been eliminated.
But we can’t blame the agricultural and sideline food station for lowering the price, because they really don’t have it.
People came to pick up the peaches themselves, and only raised the price by five cents when they took them back.
All I can say is that the purchasing power of the rural population is just like that, and no one will buy it even if the price is too high.
Even now at the price of three and a half cents or four cents, most people are reluctant to eat it.
...It would be great if we could cooperate to ship it out and sell it.
Lu Miao exhaled, sighing in his heart, and put on the wide-brimmed straw hat on his head:
"Second sister-in-law, I'll go with you."
The child's father and two elders had just gone to the fields, so it was boring for her to stay at home.
"What are you going to do? It's scorching hot outside and the kids need someone to look after them!"
"The garden is full of trees, and the breeze feels so nice. Besides, he doesn't seem to be taking a nap right now."
Lu Miao raised his chin.
Baichuan was squatting on the steps, full of energy, pinching a small piece of peach pulp to feed the ants.
Tian Guihua had no choice but to give in and handed Lu Miao a pair of sleeves.
"Take some of this with you, so you don't get itchy when the hair gets on you."
Lu Miao nodded, put the sleeves on his arms, and put a bottle of herbal tea in a can on his back.
Then he called Baichuan over, put a small straw hat on Baichuan, and then took him out.
