Zhao Zhongshen came here to blackmail, so naturally he had to have a legitimate reason.
Anyway, it's a one-time deal, he will definitely not come again in the future.
In this case, he doesn't care how Wang Ergou and Sun He behave, he only cares about achieving his goal!
Although Zhao Zhongshen was alone, he specially wore a red armband and a red hat, which were the symbols of the Revolutionary Committee.
According to Zhao Zhongshen’s past experience, the “people” are afraid of the “officials”.
Therefore, Zhao Zhongshen believed that as long as he scared the other party a little, the other party would definitely be willing to spend money to avoid disaster.
If it were in the past, Mai Lao San would definitely have been scared.
But things are different now. Mai Lao San is now a man who has seen the "big world" in Beijing!
Mai Laosan had been to the Beijing Armed Forces Department and the Beijing Revolutionary Committee to drink tea.
In the end, nothing happened.
Therefore, Mai Lao San was not afraid of a mere county revolutionary committee.
What's more, he has gone through all the formalities and it is a legal business.
When Zhao Zhongshen was about to close the factory, Mai Laosan pushed him away and said domineeringly: "Let's see who dares to close my factory!"
Zhao Zhongshen continued to stiffen his neck, bluffing: "What? You still want to create a fan! I advise you to be honest, otherwise this matter will not end well!"
At this time, people who understand the situation would take advantage of the situation and ask Zhao Zhongshen how to "resolve the matter", and Zhao Zhongshen could take the opportunity to ask for money.
But Mai Lao San didn't play by the rules and shouted, "My daughter is a division commander in the army! She's also a first-class combat hero! All the big leaders in Beijing want to invite my daughter to dinner! You dare to touch me!"
Zhao Zhongshen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then glared at Wang Ergou and Sun He beside him with dissatisfaction.
It seemed as if he was blaming them for not telling him such important information.
Wang Ergou and Sun He stood in the crowd, shrinking their necks and trying to reduce their presence as much as possible.
When the villagers found out that they were the ones who reported it, the look in their eyes made them feel a little uneasy.
They were still blaming Zhao Zhongshen in their hearts for betraying them!
You know, during the years when the crackdown was most severe, there was not a single report at the Lotus Factory under the management of Mai Xiangdong.
Even if there are some conflicts between villagers, they can be properly resolved under the mediation of the village committee, and the overall atmosphere in the village is still relatively harmonious.
Wang Ergou and Sun He's actions were an act of "destroying unity and being disloyal", so naturally everyone looked down on them.
Not to mention that Mai Xiangdong was making things difficult for them, even the villagers who worked at the Lotus Factory, as well as their relatives and friends, would definitely not let them off.
At this moment, Wang Ergou and his companion stood together timidly, like two rats crossing the street.
As for why they didn't tell Zhao Zhongshen about Mai Sui's situation, it was of course because they were afraid that the other party would be scared and not come.
It seems that Wang Ergou and his companions still have some brains, although not much.
Just as Zhao Zhongshen didn't take them seriously, they didn't take Zhao Zhongshen seriously either, and their main goal was to set traps for each other.
As a result, Zhao Zhongshen is now in a state of being neither up nor down, not knowing how the situation will end.
Zhao Zhongshen did not suspect that Mai Laosan was lying, because such lies were easy to expose.
Since the other party dared to say it so openly, he must really have a daughter who is a teacher.
That's the division commander! His rank is much higher than their captains!
Zhao Zhongshen instantly lost his confidence.
So, he pulled Mai Lao San aside and played the sympathy card:
"Brother, I have no choice. It is my duty. If you want to blame someone, blame Wang Ergou and his gang. Our Revolutionary Committee received reports from the masses, and this is the only thing we can do.
How about this, I'll put the seal on it first, and when I leave, you can tear it off yourself, and I'll pretend I didn't know, and we'll be done with this, okay?"
Zhao Zhongshen said this lightly, but it would send a wrong message to the outside world, that is, Mai Laosan is operating in violation of regulations.
If someone causes trouble and uses this as a raft, Mai Lao San will get into trouble even if he has nothing to do.
Therefore, he naturally would not agree to Zhao Zhongshen’s "unreasonable request".
Mai Laosan also took out the business license that had just been issued by the government and said that he would go to the leaders of the Revolutionary Committee to seek justice.
Zhao Zhongshen's trip was a personal act, so how could he let Mai Laosan go to find his leader?
So he could only publicly admit that it was their Revolutionary Committee that made a mistake and there was no problem with the Lotus Factory!
In order to shut Mai Laosan up, he even paid the other party ten yuan in mental damages out of his own pocket.
This may be called "stealing a chicken but losing the rice".
Zhao Zhongshen came with high hopes but left in disappointment.
In the end, he could only vent his anger on Wang Ergou and Sun He, and scolded them both.
If he hadn't taken his status into consideration, he would have beaten them both up.
Just because it is inconvenient for Zhao Zhongshen to take action doesn’t mean it is inconvenient for the villagers.
For example, Wang Meng, who works in the security department of Lotus Factory.
He is Wang Ergou's cousin.
Upon learning that Wang Ergou had reported the factory for operating in violation of regulations, he rushed over and beat Wang Ergou up in front of the villagers.
Once Wang Meng took action, the other people in the security department of the Lotus Factory naturally could not just stand by and watch.
So they rushed forward and beat up Wang Ergou and Sun He together.
You know, the factory is now busy with production, and Mai Laosan specially raised everyone's salary.
If the factory is closed, where can they find a job that pays well, has little work and is close to home?
Wang Ergou and Sun He incurred the wrath of the public and were only beaten up, which was considered light.
For a long time to come, it will be difficult for the two of them to hold their heads up high in the village.
With the precedent of Wang Ergou and Sun He as a precedent, those people in the village who were jealous of Mai Laosan and wanted to do something behind his back simply gave up.
They don't want to become the rats crossing the street, being chased by everyone.
Mai Laosan continued to work at full capacity to expand production.
And at Song Hewei's suggestion, he went to southern coastal cities to recruit agents.
Song Hewei also jumped from the position of logistics director to the special assistant of Mai Laosan, and her salary tripled.
Mai Sui never worried much about the affairs of the factory; all she cared about was that she was satisfied with the final result.
All her attention is now focused on the creation of the latest weapons.
To this end, Mai Sui specially researched a new material, which is much stronger than previous ones in terms of toughness and strength.
She finally had a weapon that was reasonably useful!
Not only that, this material can also be used on the "Ghost Fighter".
It is of great help in improving the performance of the aircraft, and we no longer have to worry about the aircraft falling apart while flying.
In the process of research and development of new materials, not only the latest machine tools are used, but also many other high-precision equipment.
Sheng Huainan finally understood why Mai Sui had been slacking off before. It turned out that he was waiting for the work in the capital to be finished first.
As the saying goes, if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools.
Sometimes wheat ears are helpless.
Fortunately, Zhang Chaojin and his team were quite helpful and did not make Mai Sui wait too long.
