Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, ten years have passed by like a white horse passing by.

Ever since the day Li Guoyuan and his son left.

It may be that other people on the farm saw that Chen Feng’s background was very powerful, so the instructions issued by Chen Feng on the farm were executed more efficiently and smoothly.

That day, Minister Wei Zhibo, who was cordially invited by Chairman Zhang to inspect the farm, received an important promotion and transfer in his career shortly after the farm successfully held a grand celebration banquet for the summer harvest.

Later one day, when Hou Debang led the newly appointed farm logistics director sent by the steel plant to Chen Feng, he mentioned Wei Zhibo's recent situation in passing.

It is said that Minister Wei has been transferred to a remote northwest farm to serve as deputy director because of his outstanding work ability and remarkable work performance.

When Chen Feng heard the news for the first time, he was dumbfounded for a moment and didn't know what to say.

I thought to myself, "Is this transfer really the generous treatment that should be given to those with strong working abilities?"

If anyone said that Wei Zhibo was not deliberately being made difficult by someone, Chen Feng would not believe a single word of it from the bottom of his heart.

After all, everyone knows that how can the farm environment in the remote northwest be comparable to that of the prosperous and bustling New Beijing?

However, Chen Feng did not pay too much attention to this matter. After all, it was none of his business, so he just kept out of it. It was not him who was going to be exiled to the bitter cold land of the northwest to suffer.

There is no doubt that Hou Debang's visit to the farm this time was not just to escort the newly appointed logistics minister to his office.

In fact, there was another important reason why he came here - to complain to Chen Feng!

Hou Debang said to Chen Feng with a depressed look on his face: "Xiao Chen, you are really not nice! How come when you encounter a problem, the first person you think of is not me, the local boss of the steel plant? Instead, you go to Uncle Li for help?"

After saying this, he glared at Chen Feng angrily, looking like a child who had been wronged.

Facing Hou Debang's questioning, Chen Feng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He quickly smiled and explained kindly: "Hey, Brother Hou, please don't be angry first!"

"The situation was urgent at the time, and I was desperate to find a cure. Of course, I thought that Grandpa Li had a high rank and many connections..."

After the explanation, Chen Feng racked his brains and said a lot of nice things to try to calm Hou Debang's dissatisfaction.

However, Hou Debang was not someone who could be easily dismissed. He continued to ask for various details, leaving Chen Feng overwhelmed.

After a long and arduous verbal battle, Chen Feng finally explained the whole cause and effect of the matter. At the same time, he gradually put out the anger of the big boss and finally calmed him down.

Chen Feng was already dry-mouthed at this time, but when he saw that Hou Debang no longer insisted on this matter, Chen Feng finally put his heart back in his stomach.

During these long ten years, the farm has undergone many changes. In addition to welcoming a new logistics director, many unfamiliar faces have also gradually poured in.

Among these newcomers, some entered the farm through the succession system, but what are more eye-catching are those groups with more special identities.

Those special people were all intellectuals who were sent to farms for labor reform.

They come from different fields and backgrounds, and some of them were once hard-working gardeners in junior and senior high schools - teachers.

Some people are active in the cultural world, using their pens and ink to write about everything in the world.

Others are educators in institutions of higher learning.

At first, only a few people were sent to this farm. Chen Feng felt pity for these ill-fated intellectuals, so he accepted them without hesitation.

However, what Chen Feng did not expect was that more and more intellectuals were sent here continuously.

Faced with such a situation, Chen Feng thought: Anyway, if I have to drive away one sheep, I have to drive away a flock of sheep as well. Since I have already taken in the first few people, I might as well keep all the people who come here.

In this way, a special team composed of intellectuals gradually gathered from the farm, which was originally composed mostly of farmers.

As time went by, more people who needed to undergo ideological and labor reform were sent to the farm, making the team grow like a snowball.

Chen Feng did not put too much effort into disciplining these highly educated people. On weekdays, he just let them do some work together with the regular employees of the farm.

Apart from that, as long as they stayed still and didn't try to escape, Chen Feng would let them do whatever they wanted.

Seeing how lenient Chen Feng's management of these people was, other leading cadres on the farm gradually followed suit and no longer imposed strict requirements and supervision as they did at the beginning.

Therefore, in such a relatively free and relaxed environment, this group of scholars and literati, who were originally of noble status and full of knowledge, began to slowly release their nature and let themselves go in the vast world of the farm.

They gradually forgot their identities as objects of transformation and seemed to have integrated into this new collective.

At first, they all behaved normally. After get off work every day, these like-minded friends would gather together to talk about literature and share their views and thoughts on various academic issues.

Sometimes they argued fiercely and expressed their own opinions; sometimes they listened quietly and accepted others' opinions with an open mind. The scene was so lively!

However, the peaceful days did not last forever.

Suddenly one day, I don’t know which “genius” in the team came up with an amazing idea - to build a biogas digester on the farm.

His original intention was quite good. He wanted to use the generated biogas to provide fuel for the farm canteen for making fires and cooking, which would be both environmentally friendly and economical.

When this proposal was made, everyone was stunned at first, but soon responded one after another and expressed their willingness to give it a try.

I have to say that the action power of these people is beyond imagination! Not only do they have ideas, but they also have strong hands-on ability.

So, without any professional guidance or permission, they quietly started the construction of the biogas digester.

After a period of hard work, the biogas digester was finally completed. Looking at the result of their own efforts, everyone was filled with joy and looked forward to it playing a huge role.

But who would have thought that during the first ignition experiment, an accident occurred. With a loud bang, the entire farm was shaken.

Because the biogas tank was built next to the pigpen, the sudden explosion also affected two innocent pigs nearby, sending them to death.

The next morning, when Chen Feng came to the farm to work as usual, he heard his colleagues telling him what happened last night. He was completely stunned, and his head felt blank and buzzing.

When Chen Feng rushed to the pigpen and saw the biogas tank that had been blown beyond recognition and the two poor dead pigs, he was so speechless that he didn't know what to say.

Chen Feng had finally taken care of the affairs at the pigpen. Looking at the group of so-called "highly intellectuals" in front of him, he couldn't help feeling annoyed.

With a stern face, he announced sternly: "From now on, no one is allowed to conduct such dangerous experiments! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying that, he glared at everyone fiercely and turned away.

However, since Chen Feng issued the ban, the mood of those highly educated people became extremely depressed in the following days.

They are usually full of confidence and energy, but now they all look listless like eggplants hit by frost.

Not only that, there were several times when Chen Feng even overheard them hiding in the corner, quietly discussing the cause of the last biogas tank explosion in low voices.

Whenever Chen Feng thought of this, he would break out in a cold sweat. These guys were still discussing this, were they really planning to try again?

What if there is another explosion and he gets hurt? Thinking of this, Chen Feng felt that he couldn't just sit back and do nothing.

After careful consideration, Chen Feng decided to find something else to distract these people. So he came to the pile of debris in the space and began to search.

Finally, his hard work paid off and he found a damaged solar garden light.

Chen Feng picked up the worn-out garden lamp, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and thought: Just use this to get rid of them.

Then, he strode up to the group of intellectuals, threw the garden lamp in his hand to the ground, and said, "Well, you like to do research, so then think about how to fix this thing."

After saying that, Chen Feng left without looking back.

When the group first saw the garden lights, they did not notice anything unusual. However, as the repair work progressed, an indescribable sense of weirdness gradually came over them.

They began to exchange puzzled glances with each other, as if they could find the answer from each other's eyes, but in the end they could only shake their heads to express their confusion.

Time passed quickly, and in less than two days, one of them could no longer suppress his curiosity and anxiety, and decided to go find Chen Feng in person to get to the bottom of the matter.

When he finally saw Chen Feng, he couldn't wait to ask, "Where did this garden light come from?"

Faced with this question, Chen Feng seemed nonchalant and answered casually: "This lamp is something I saw for sale on the black market."

After saying this, Chen Feng no longer looked at the man, as if he had no interest in this topic.

Although everyone was full of doubts about the explanation given by Chen Feng and did not believe that things could be so simple, they were helpless.

After all, Chen Feng has already made his attitude clear and is unwilling to dwell on the matter any further. Even if they still have questions, they cannot continue to ask.

So, with a heart full of confusion and unwillingness, the man silently left where Chen Feng was.
