Just when Li Xu was transporting goods to other places, three outsiders came to Tang County.
As soon as the three men arrived, they asked someone where the county government was and then headed straight there.
Soon, the top leader Liu Wen met them in the office.
After they explained their purpose, Liu Wen's face turned green. "Teacher Ma, do you have the documents approved by the higher-ups for what you're talking about?"
The middle-aged man who was the leader of the three said "yes" without hesitation, and then reached for the briefcase he was carrying.
Seeing this, Liu Wen quickly added, "I'm not just talking about your approval documents, but also ours. Otherwise, I'll hand the person over to you, and if the higher-ups come to me for them, I'll be in trouble if I can't get them out."
Teacher Ma paused, then continued to reach into the bag.
He quickly pulled out a document bag and handed it over. "County Liu, the approval documents from both provinces are in there. Take a look. If everything is ok, please call the people over as soon as possible. I need to take them back quickly."
Liu Wen opened the file bag and took out the papers inside.
After looking at each picture, he fell into silence.
After a long time, I sighed in my heart and realized that it seemed that I couldn't keep the person.
Liu Wen forced a smile on his face. "Three of you, please sit inside for a while. I'll go make some arrangements."
After leaving the office, he asked someone to gather the county leaders.
When everyone arrived, he said with a bitter face, "Everyone, I have bad news for you. The county university teacher is leaving."
Everyone was stunned at first, then their expressions changed drastically. One of them quickly asked, "Where are they going? Did they issue any documents from above?"
"They are going back to school to be teachers. People from Wuhan University have come to pick them up, and the approval documents are very complete. We can't stop them." Liu Wen replied.
Upon hearing this, everyone knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion. However, some people were still unwilling to accept it and asked, "Is there really no way to keep them?"
"There's nothing we can do. The document was approved by the provincial government, and Hubei also approved a copy."
In recent years, in order to support the research of teachers majoring in engineering, Tang County has really sold everything it has, spending a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources.
The teachers did not disappoint Tang County. They not only produced a series of research results, but also cultivated a group of industrial talents.
Tang County really made a fortune from this investment.
For such talents, how can leaders be willing to let them go?
It can be said that Liu Wen will not let go as long as there is a slight possibility.
But there is really no way now.
The province has approved it, so how can the county refuse to listen?
The leaders sighed deeply and expressed their willingness to obey the arrangements.
After the meeting, some leaders went to arrange to pick up people and handle follow-up matters, while Li Mei went to his office with Liu Wen.
Liu Wen was in no mood to deal with Teacher Ma, so he wanted Li Mei, who graduated from Wuhan University, to chat with him for a while.
Liu Wen briefly introduced the two parties, then left for a while on the pretext of having official business to attend to.
At this time, only Li Mei and Teacher Ma were left in the room.
Li Mei was the first to ask, "Teacher Ma, were you a teacher at Wuhan University?"
Teacher Ma did not answer, but smiled and said, "Deputy County Li, there is no need to address me as you, just use your name."
"That won't do. I'm a graduate of Wuhan University, so when I meet a teacher from Wuhan University, I naturally have to address him as you."
Hearing this, Teacher Ma immediately became interested and asked, "Are you a graduate of Wuhan University?"
"Um."
"When did you enter school and what major did you study?"
"I was admitted to the Economics Department of Wuhan University in 1961 and graduated in 1965."
Teacher Ma pondered for a moment, his expression suddenly changing, and he said to the two people beside him, "I have something to say to Deputy County Magistrate Li, you two should leave for a moment."
The two of them didn't ask any more questions. They just responded and walked out, closing the door behind them.
At this time, Teacher Ma asked in a low voice, "Is it related to you that so many teachers in the school chose to be transferred to Tang County?"
Li Mei was shocked, but remained expressionless. "Teacher Ma, I don't understand what you said."
"When we investigated the files of teachers who were sent down to other counties, we discovered something very strange. In the years before the storm, more and more teachers chose to be sent down to Tang County. The more teachers gathered in one place, the more likely they were to attract attention from certain people and get into trouble again. They couldn't have failed to understand this.
I thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out why they did this, but when you introduced yourself just now, it suddenly dawned on me that they chose to be transferred here because they knew they would get your protection if they came to Tang County;
Deputy County Magistrate Li, I am correct, am I not?"
Although he was asking, his face showed a determined expression.
Li Meiqiang laughed and said, "Teacher Ma, what you said is too far-fetched. You can't put the blame on me just because I'm a student of Wuhan University. Besides, I had just been promoted to a full-time position when the storm started. How could I have the ability to protect them?"
Seeing her denial, Teacher Ma burst out laughing. "If I remember correctly, the first person to be sent down to Tang County was a professor in the Economics Department. Don't tell me this is a coincidence. You said you didn't have the ability to protect others back then. I want to know how you went from a recent graduate to your current position in just twelve years."
The implication is obvious. Li Mei has a background, so she was able to sit in her current position in such a short time. She could not provide protection at that time, but her backers could.
Although he had guessed everything, without knowing his background, Li Mei could only continue to be stubborn, "That's just a coincidence. I was able to sit in my current position in a short period of time entirely because of my ability. If you don't believe me, you can go ask someone outside.
