Chapter 177: Still have a reputation? (Edited)

"We really didn't read the book, but that's not an excuse for the Five-Star Team to cheat." Some people still refused to give up and wanted to drag the Five-Star Team into the water.

What they can't get, no one else can get.

Director Luo raised his eyebrows when he saw this: "I finally understand why you were eliminated."

He pointed at the group of people who were causing trouble and said slowly, "If the Public Security Bureau recruits people like you who don't understand what others are saying, that would be their problem."

"I've said before that all the test questions were set by the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Not to mention Zhou Chengye, even I don't know." Director Luo walked up to the person who had just loudly accused the Five-Star Team of cheating and said, "Do you understand what I said?"

"Do you understand?"

He was an educated youth in his twenties who had gone to the countryside with great enthusiasm. Now he regretted it and wanted to find an opportunity to return to the city.

But reality tells him that it is easy to go to the countryside but difficult to return to the city, so he should stop daydreaming.

Now that he finally had a chance to escape from the miserable life in the countryside, he tried hard to pass the examination to join the Public Security Bureau, but he was eliminated in the written test.

He gritted his teeth: "You said there is no, so there is no?"

He now has no way to escape and can only go down this path until the end.

Director Luo smiled faintly: "In that case, you can go to the city to sue me and Zhou Chengye. If you feel that the city is not enough, go to Guangdong or Beijing. I will accompany you anytime."

He didn't like Zhou Chengye, but he knew that Zhou Chengye would never do such a thing.

I'm not afraid of them causing trouble.

Director Luo looked at the angry and frightened man and asked with a smile, "Do you know where this place is?"

Someone whispered, "Yes, this is the Cabinet Committee."

"Since you know this is the Cabinet Committee, you should understand that I can have you locked up at any time." Director Luo sneered. One or two of them really came here to cause trouble out of enthusiasm, without caring about the consequences.

"If you think there is something wrong with this exam, go ahead and file a complaint. I'm always here to serve you." He stared at the people present with a half-smile, "But you came to the cabinet committee today to cause trouble, which has violated the regulations. Please register. Someone will go to your brigade later and tell your secretary and brigade leader everything you did today."

"Those who deserve punishment should still be punished. This will also tell you that the Cabinet Committee is not a place where you can cause trouble whenever you want."

By the time Zhou Chengye got the news and rushed over, those people had already left.

Director Luo's secretary told Zhou Chengye everything that had just happened: "Director Zhou, Director Luo still cares about you very much. He made those people speechless today."

"Of course, Director Luo is a good leader." Zhou Chengye smiled and said to the secretary, "Thank you for this time."

Secretary Lin chuckled and said, "Director Zhou, this concerns the reputation of the Cabinet Committee. I naturally cannot stand idly by."

Zhou Chengye chuckled in his heart. What kind of reputation does the Cabinet have?

"Director Zhou, Director Luo is in the office. Please go in quickly."

Director Luo looked at Zhou Chengye who came in and said calmly, "The matter has been resolved. Isn't it too late for you to show up now?"

Zhou Chengye smiled and said, "By the way, I also want to thank Director Luo for his help today and thank you for trusting me."

"No, no, no, I just can't stand those who don't want to give but want to gain." Director Luo curled his lips: "Also, I don't like being suspected. I will not allow anything to happen that affects the Nanfu County government."

Zhou Chengye nodded: "Director Luo is a leader with a high level of ideological awareness. We should learn from him."

Regarding this point, Zhou Chengye still recognized Director Luo. In the past, those who were sent to work in Nanfu County would be tortured, and most of them were done by the former Deputy Director Chen.

"Okay, stop flattering me. I admit that I have selfish motives. I hope my son can pass the exam and return to the county." At this point, Director Luo cursed, "That brat doesn't want to come back, and he doesn't allow his family to visit him. He's always thinking about going against his family. It's really infuriating."

Thinking about the letter my son wrote back to me made me angry and I wanted to tie him up and beat him up.

Something about keeping an eye on grandpa and grandma and not letting them cause trouble in the Five-Star Brigade, otherwise they would make mistakes and be sent to a farther place for reform.

Or sign up to join the army.

When he saw these words, he was so angry that he almost cried. His grandparents had given so much for him, but that boy rejected them. He wanted to call them ungrateful.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chengye really wanted to say that your son is just here for formalities.

But Zhou Chengye didn't dare to say that, for fear that it would upset the old father who was longing for his son to return.

He said: "Luo Hui is a very smart kid, but there are many excellent candidates taking the exam this time, so whether Luo Hui can pass the exam and return to the county seat as you wish depends on his ability."

Director Luo nodded: "Don't worry, I understand. I said it was a fair exam and I will never interfere with me behind my back."

Although he wanted his son to come back soon, he would not do anything beyond his bottom line. He treated his five daughters in the same way. He said he was arranging jobs for his daughters, but in fact he just told his daughters in advance which unit was recruiting so that they could prepare for the exams.

I will never use my power to find a job for my daughter.

On the second day of the physical fitness test, the educated youth and the high school students in the Five-Star Team had a great advantage. Those who believed the rumors and thought that the Five-Star Team cheated saw that Lu Guohua and his team left everyone behind in both running and strength tests. Only then did they realize that the people in the Five-Star Team might have really achieved such good results based on their own strength.

Someone couldn't help but whisper to Luo Hui: "Why are you so amazing?"

Luo Hui said: "We started waking up early every morning to run last year, and also do some training in the evening."

"Why? Or did you already know that we would be hiring?"

"It's just that every day after work, I'm almost exhausted, but I still have to go to training." They must have known that the Public Security Bureau would be recruiting people a long time ago, otherwise they wouldn't work so hard.

Li Guodong said calmly, "We chose to exercise because we are all educated youth. We are not as strong as the local members and work slower than them. If we don't find the reason from ourselves, don't exercise well, and work harder, what will happen to us?"

"Or do you think it is an honor for us to be healthy and have good hands and feet but still need the help of the team to survive?"

Luo Hui nodded: "Yu Zhiqing from our educated youth camp said that since we have gone to the countryside, we should choose to adapt to the local life and integrate into the local community, rather than waiting for others to accommodate us."

"If you can't do it yourself, you will be narrow-minded and think that others can't do it either." Ou Jianguo chuckled: "People who want to get something for nothing will often not move an inch."

After the final duel test, only a few people were left, and there were only three candidates for the Five-Star Team.

They are Lu Guohua, Li Wenzhou and another high school student.

This high school student has loved running around in the mountains since he was a child, and everyone in the team calls him Monkey.

He runs very fast and is very agile.

Secretary Zhou glanced at Chu Ming and said, "You didn't try your best."

Chu Ming smiled and said, "Secretary, I am not interested in this. I am just here to accompany them in the exam."

Luo Hui nodded repeatedly: "Me too, Chu Ming and I both want to join the army."

Zhou Pingan was silent for a moment: "I will help you keep an eye out for conscription news."

Seeing the other young people in the team looking depressed, Zhou Pingan patted them on the shoulders and said, "Don't think too much. Go back and continue to train hard and wait for the next opportunity."

“Only when you are prepared can you seize the opportunity when it comes.”

Several young people nodded.

They were waiting for the final sparring test in the county town.

It was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that we received the final news.

In the end, Li Wenzhou, Monkey, and members from another commune were admitted.

Huo Lanci glanced at Lu Guohua and said slowly: "It's okay, there is still a chance."

On the first day he arrived in the county, he went to find his friend Chen Heping to ask if there was any job openings in the county.

He looked at the people present and said, "The Security Department of the Nanfu County Brick and Tile Factory wants to recruit someone and needs to take an exam."

After he finished speaking, he stuffed a piece of paper into Lu Guohua's hand and said, "This is a letter of recommendation. Take it to the brick factory to register for the exam."

Everyone looked at Lu Guohua when they heard this, and the person involved was also confused: "This, this, is for me?"

Huo Lanci nodded: "It's for you. You have a calm personality and are more suitable than any of them."

After finishing speaking, Huo Lanci looked at the others and said, "As Secretary Zhou said, as long as we are well prepared, there will always be a chance."

"Whether you want to join the army or find a job, as long as you prepare early, you will have a much better chance of winning than others."

Ji Qing nodded: "Ah Ci, we all understand."

"We will work hard to train when we return, and we will also read more high school textbooks. We will not fall behind in our studies just because we are in the countryside." Zhong Yuliang said with a smile: "We are still young, and there will always be opportunities."

Zhang Tiesheng laughed and bumped Lu Guohua's shoulder: "That's right, the Five-Star Brigade is so good. Even if I don't pass the exam, I'm happy to go back and farm with everyone."

Several other young people in the team also laughed: "We are locals, so we are not afraid. If there is an opportunity, we will take it. If there is no opportunity, we will wait."

"We lie in wait. As long as there is a chance, we will jump on it." In addition, correct it quickly.

He felt that ambush was the most suitable method for the current situation.

Zhou Ping'an heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that they really did not lose heart but were instead motivated to fight.

I am most afraid that they will complain.

Especially the young people in his own team, he was afraid that they would think that the educated youth had snatched their opportunities, and then feel resentful towards them, thus ignoring the factor of their own strength.

The Nanfu County Brick and Tile Factory is not located in the county seat, but on a roadside three miles away from Ningshan Commune. The area is large, with relatively few people living there. It is close to the road and is a good place to build a factory.

So on their way back, they also stopped by the brick factory.

Because of Chen Heping's letter of recommendation, the leaders of the brick factory chose to conduct the assessment on the spot even though it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

There is no doubt that Lu Guohua became a member of the brick factory's security department.

It was nearly nine o'clock when they left the brick factory, but Zhou Ping'an and others felt very happy. This time, their Five-Star Brigade sent out two police officers and one worker.

It is a great honor.

To prove that his and the team leader's original decision was correct, they should allow the young people in the village to have more contact with the young educated youth.

As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." Birds of a feather flock together. This is really true.

When we returned to the Five Star Brigade, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening and everyone had gone to bed.

Huo Lanci stood outside his door for a while, but finally did not disturb Yu Xiaowu and chose to go back to his room to rest.

Ye Shulan was sleeping soundly. When she heard a knock on the door, she quickly got up and opened it.

When she saw that it was her husband, she suddenly came to her senses: "Wenzhou, you're back."

Li Wenzhou hugged Ye Shulan's shoulders, closed the door, and took her back to the room: "It's cold outside, lie back under the quilt."

Ye Shulan shook her head: "I'm wearing thick clothes."

She didn't ask Li Wenzhou whether he passed the exam or not. Instead, she looked at him and asked with a smile, "Are you hungry? I'll go cook something for you."

After saying this, she turned around and was about to leave the room.

Li Wenzhou took her hand and brought her into his arms: "Shulan, I succeeded."

"You won't have to live a hard life with me in the future." The desperate training during this period and the hard study under the candlelight every night finally brought gratifying results.

Ye Shulan was stunned for a long time before she slowly raised her head with an expression of disbelief: "Really?"

"Wenzhou, you became a police officer?"

Li Wenzhou looked at her dazed expression and nodded: "Yes, I will become a public security comrade and report to the county town in three days."

He reached out and gently stroked Ye Shulan's face: "But from now on, I'll have to ask you to take care of the family. I'm in the county town and can't come back often."

"I will wait for you at home. There are many educated youths around here. If I have any problems, I can ask them for help. At worst, I can go back to ask my family for help. Don't worry about me." Ye Shulan smiled and looked at her husband: "Wenzhou, you are really amazing. I am happy for you."

She had always felt that a smart person like Wenzhou should not be trapped in this small mountain village.

Now, he finally walked out.

The next morning, the members of the Five-Star Brigade learned that Li Wenzhou and Monkey became police officers, and Lu Guohua became a security guard in the security department of the brick factory.

For a while, everyone was talking about it, and it also made everyone realize that studying and training now are not useless. As long as there is an opportunity, you can still become a worker.

Everyone was secretly thinking about sending their children to the educated youth sites to study and train with them.

When they were walking back to the educated youth camp after work, Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci whispered, "Today, the aunts and uncles in the brigade looked at us like monsters looking at Tang Monk."

I can't wait to pounce on it and take a bite.

Huo Lanci smiled faintly: "It seems that seeing Monkey become a public security officer also moved him."

"Does this mean that we will have to train more people in the future?" A feeling of uneasiness surged in her heart.
