Chapter 297: Flattery never wears out
Commune Lu Jiaxuan was recording documents. When he heard footsteps, he turned his head and looked at them. He quickly lowered his head and pretended to be busy. He didn't want to say hello to Shen Meng at all. In the past six months, he was almost like a transparent person in the commune. He no longer had the high spirits he had before. No matter what he did, he felt that he was not valued by Feng Si.
His daughter Jiaojiao now worked in a textile factory and it was also very hard. That Wu Xianglan would always find trouble with her. As the second sister-in-law, she didn't help take care of her sister-in-law and always made trouble. The couple had been living a good life and didn't provoke anyone. Why did it seem that everyone was against them?
Shen Meng looked at the trembling back, raised her eyebrows, and walked towards Feng Si's office as if she didn't see anything. When Xiao Zhang saw her coming, her face was as bright as a chrysanthemum.
"Oh, Sister Shen is here. Did you come from home or from the county? Are you tired? Please sit in the director's office first. I'll pour you a glass of water. Sister Shen, you haven't been here for a long time. I have some questions about my work that I want to ask you!"
"I haven't seen Xiao Zhang for a long time. You're getting sweeter and sweeter."
"Hehehehe, it's all because of our Director Feng's good teaching. But I really want Sister Shen to guide my work. You are always so passionate and energetic. You love to contribute to the members and the masses. Who of us doesn't admire you when we see you! We all want to learn from you. I would also like to suggest to Director Feng that when you organize a study session in the commune, you can take the time to explain your ideas to us!"
Shen Meng smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Flattery never wears out, no wonder so many eloquent people in the previous life could show up in front of leaders and bosses, look at what they said, it really makes people happy physically and mentally!
Outside, Lu Jiaxuan listened to the laughter of two people talking in the office, and his hand holding the pen slightly exerted force.
His elder brother worked hard in the army outside to defend the country, but his sister-in-law was here chatting and laughing with someone, not caring about her reputation at all, which was really a disgrace to their Lu family.
Secretary Zhang was the person Director Feng trusted the most. No matter what he thought in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, and he also remembered what Secretary Zhang said in his heart.
He was very disdainful of such flatterers, but it was also obvious that people with a little power liked to hear nice words. He was too honest. He
had worked hard for the members, but he didn't speak out clearly, so he was ignored. Lu Jiaxuan felt that he should practice his eloquence, and Jiaojiao, they both needed to think about how to change the current situation.
When Feng Si came back, Shen Meng had already drunk two glasses of water. Xiao Zhang was too talkative. Shen Meng felt that if it was another 20 years later, this guy would definitely be the head of a pyramid scheme. She was fooled several times.
"Sister-in-law, you are here. What brings you here? Haha, how long have you been waiting, sister-in-law?"
"Not long ago, I have something to discuss with the director. I took a leave this afternoon and came here to have a good chat about this matter."
When Feng Si heard Shen Meng say this, his mind was spinning fast, thinking about what happened in the food workshop and the flower factory, and whether there were any problems in the villages and Shen Meng's in-laws and her parents' home. He
thought quickly for a while and didn't realize what happened, so he smiled at Shen Meng quickly.
"It seems like you want to chat for a while. Xiao Zhang, go make another pot of tea for my sister-in-law. Use the tea leaves my wife brought back from Haicheng. It's so fragrant, with the scent of jasmine!"
"Okay, I'll be there right away. Sister Shen, please sit down for a moment. I'll make you some tea and bring it over."
Shen Meng: "........"
Forget it. I've drunk a bellyful of water and I'm in a hurry to go to the restroom!!!
After Xiao Zhang left, Shen Meng didn't wait for Feng Si to say anything. She waved to him and asked him to wait a moment. She turned around and walked out. She went to the restroom in the public restroom and then returned to Feng Si's office with ease.
"I'm sorry, sister-in-law. Xiao Zhang is a chatterbox. I'm sorry to bother you."
"It's okay. I came here this time to ask Director Feng to talk to Director Kong of the brick factory about setting up a brick and tile workshop in our commune."
"What, another workshop?"
Feng Si stood up from his seat and looked at Shen Meng with shining eyes. Since the day he established the hair flower workshop, he has been praised by various leaders in the county. Leaders in the provincial capital all know that Director Feng Si of Xiangyang Commune in Ning County is a good director who leads well and is serious and responsible.
His father-in-law and mother-in-law now call him home for dinner every day. Even his wife has become much more affectionate to him and has wanted him to invite Shen Meng to dinner at home many times.
But he rejected them all. Shen Meng is now his most powerful general, fighting for his career in the front. He feels that any delay is a waste.
"Director Feng means that he doesn't want to do it anymore. It's not me who says that, Director, our commune took the lead before. Now there are countless communes in our county who want to cooperate with the factories, supply and marketing cooperatives, and state-owned hotels in the county. Only the brick factory is not touched, because there is no trick here, and it's all about dealing with mud. For a while, everyone doesn't know how to cooperate with the brick factory, but once someone reacts, the brick factory may not give priority to our commune."
"No, no, no, it's not that I don't want to do it, but how can our commune cooperate with the brick factory? The brick factory is labor-intensive, and there is no shortage of workers, nor is there any expansion, so there is no need for our help. Moreover, our commune does not have a village chief who has red mud. I really don't know what's good about cooperation here."
Shen Meng smiled and said, "Director, isn't there a Lujiazhuang between the neighboring Hongqi Commune and our Xiangyang Commune? That village is the poorest and has the most bachelors in the area. The specific division of this village is a bit vague. Hongqi Commune has wanted to assign this village to our Xiangyang Commune many times, just to avoid holding them back. "When you have time, send Xiao Zhang to go there and tell the leaders of Hongqi Commune that our commune is now prosperous, and we want to lead the members of Lujiazhuang to live a better life. At least they should be able to afford food."
Feng Si was a little reluctant. Lujiazhuang was an existence that was despised by both communes. Every household was anxious to find a wife and a supporter, and the land they were allocated was not fertile at all. Many families still relied on the state's relief grain. Xiangyang Commune had finally gotten better, and he didn't want such a backward village. However, Shen Meng spoke up and mentioned the brick factory. He felt that it must be very complicated.
"Sister-in-law, you want me to take back Lujiazhuang, is it because there is some cat litter?"
Shen Meng smiled mysteriously and said to him, "I asked someone to check it out. There is a lot of red mud on the river near Lujiazhuang."
"What, red mud? Oh, really, sister-in-law, I'll let Xiao Zhang go. The director of Hongqi Commune is really short-sighted and not as far-sighted as me. How can Lujiazhuang be a hindrance? It's obviously a big treasure!"
Shen Meng: "......"
