A healthy sibling relationship should involve both partners being able to be independent, rather than one partner being dependent on the other for an extended period. This formula was perfect for Zhao Chunhua, a female worker who had only been at the textile factory for a short time before being promoted.
Unable to bear seeing women crying in front of him, Zhao Youcai waved his hand.
"You should hurry back to town. If you take leave right after being promoted to the production line leader, it will inevitably attract criticism."
Zhao Chunhua was a very obedient person. Since her father had said so, she would definitely do as he said.
"Then I'll head back now and try to get this fabric made at the textile factory as soon as possible."
Zhao Chunhua put down the fabric in her hand. She knew that her father had only shown her the actual fabric so that she would have a better idea of what it was, but she wouldn't be foolish enough to actually take it back to the textile factory.
If I did that, I still wouldn't be able to advance further in the textile factory under the guise of developing new fabrics, and that would be letting down my father's good intentions.
Zhao Youcai watched Zhao Chunhua's departing figure and nodded slightly in satisfaction.
That's right. Although she used to be so afraid of domestic violence that she didn't even dare to run back to her parents' home, she has been growing up quite fast recently.
A brain is a good thing, and luckily she's grown one. Zhao Youcai felt much more at ease.
The more people who can become capable assistants in the future, the greater one's chance of effortless success.
Zhao Youcai was unaware that someone had already secretly prepared to target him.
...
In prison.
Former farm manager Zhu was taking a big bite of a slightly spoiled cornbread.
The force with which the head was nearly flung off demonstrated just how hard the cornbread in his hand was.
The prison guard, holding his baton, banged heavily on the prison's iron bars.
"Stop squatting there, you can come out now."
Factory Director Zhu… no, he's no longer the factory director. He's now just a troublesome commoner named Zhu Laoqi who's made a mistake.
That's right, Director Zhu's real name is Zhu Laoqi, a very rustic and unfashionable name.
"Don't keep me from getting off work, get out here right now!"
If Zhu Laoqi were still the same farm manager he used to be, the prison guards would never have treated him this way.
Zhu Laoqi walked out of the prison with his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, his face expressionless.
"Be a good person after you get out. If you commit another crime, it won't be as simple as just going to jail."
Originally, this was just a symbolic remark made to people who had just been released from prison, as a warning to prevent them from taking revenge on society after their release.
But Zhu Laoqi's eyes were still clearly somewhat fierce. Even though he tried his best to hide it, he still couldn't escape the eyes of the prison guards.
As a special group that deals with prisoners year after year, the prison guards may not have been staring directly at Zhu Laoqi, but their eyes never left his face.
Almost as soon as Zhu Laoqi went through the formalities, after the prison guard read the contents of the guarantee in a clear and resonant voice, he pressed his fingerprint and slowly walked out to see the sunlight. The moment afterward, the prison guard reported his abnormal situation.
If it were someone else, the police would be too lazy to deal with the aftermath and would usually just call in when something else happens.
After all, the police station has a lot to do every day, and its manpower is very limited.
However, among Zhu Laoqi's enemies was a man named Zhao Youcai. Whether it was the military region, higher-level leaders, or even the Revolutionary Committee, which usually kept to itself but would inevitably clash with Zhu Laoqi if he committed a crime, they all protected Zhao Youcai fiercely. The Public Security Bureau felt it was necessary to send someone to keep an eye on Zhu Laoqi 24 hours a day.
We must be on high alert for at least the next year, lest Zhao Youcai run into trouble and we can't explain it to our superiors, or lose our secure jobs.
Moreover, if this is done well, it will be a great achievement, and it might even help me get on good terms with those leaders.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the prison guard left.
Chen Tingting, on the other hand, didn't have the same good fortune as Zhu Laoqi in the women's prison.
There's nothing we can do about it; Chen Tingting has had too many scandals and has hooked up with quite a few men.
The female prison guard in charge of watching her was the ex-wife of one of the men Chen Tingting had previously hooked up with.
The female prison guard tortured her in various ways every day. Chen Tingting, who initially boasted that she would make the female prison guard pay after she was released, has now been taught a lesson and behaved herself.
There was nothing that could be done; Chen Tingting wasn't like Zhu Laoqi, who was framed by the Revolutionary Committee and could be released after only a few days in prison.
She was caught red-handed and made a scapegoat by Zhu Laoqi, who personally pinned the blame for the financial fraud on her.
It's safe to say that unless someone outside can find evidence to overturn the case, these dozen or so charges, big and small, are enough to keep her in prison for the rest of her life.
Zhu Laoqi was a man who had seen the world, and he wouldn't do something like Wang Guilan buying rat poison in the past.
Zhu Laoqi knew perfectly well that he had only raised more animals to earn more money that could be put into his own pocket without anyone noticing, and there was no truth to the claim that he had raised pigs with diseases.
Since the Revolutionary Committee was able to remove him from his position as the head of the breeding farm, what problem was there in him using the Revolutionary Committee to deal with Zhao Youcai?
Although Zhu Laoqi knew that on the surface, this matter could not be blamed on Zhao Youcai, but the root cause was still Zhao Youcai.
If Zhao Youcai's reputation hadn't grown so prominently, bringing them increasing benefits, those snobbish bastards in the Revolutionary Committee wouldn't have inexplicably come after him.
After all, he has given them a lot of kickbacks over the years; the total amount given to all his relatives and friends combined is less than what he has given them.
Zhu Laoqi was furious that he could clean himself up without even a word under such circumstances!
Dealing with that group of people from the Revolutionary Committee would be impossible for Zhu Laoqi, let alone the penniless Zhu Laoqi, even the once-glorious head of the breeding farm.
You just want to curry favor with Zhao Youcai for personal gain, right? Well, if I get rid of Zhao Youcai, your dreams of getting benefits will be shattered!
...
Having finally gotten rid of all the messes left by the previous managers of the farm, Zhao Youcai was sitting in the farm manager's office, sipping tea.
Looking at the office that has been completely renovated according to my own preferences, I felt incredibly happy.
Just as he was about to take out the precious radio that Factory Director Niu had given him to listen to the news, there was a sudden knock on the office door.
"Director Zhao, something terrible has happened! There's been an accident at the pigsty!"
Zhao Youcai's brow twitched violently, and his hand holding the large tea mug trembled involuntarily.
He cursed his bad luck inwardly, sighed deeply, stood up, and walked out.
He knew it! He wouldn't be able to hold onto that factory manager position so easily!
I originally thought it was just a minor argument between an old employee and a new employee who had been kept on for observation and hadn't been dealt with yet.
But the scene before him shocked Zhao Youcai so much that he couldn't recover for a long time.
