Counterattack in the chronology

Walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to 99.

After Gu Lichun walked five hundred steps, he felt that he could live for a long time.Finally, I couldn't help but take the initiative to break the silence, "Director Deng, I feel great pressure from you, I want to ask, what's wrong with me doing this?"

Director Deng looked at the field in the distance, and said casually: "It doesn't matter right or wrong, I just want to tell you that you can just do things with your heart, and you don't need to wrong yourself to please others, and I don't need you to do so."

Gu Lichun understood that Director Deng had some opinions on the submission incident. Thinking of this, he smiled frankly: "Who I praise depends entirely on my mood, and I have never been wronged. Besides, does Deng Chang think that I am a person who seeks perfection?"

Director Deng glanced at Gu Lichun and shook his head: "It's not like that."

The two fell silent again and continued to walk a hundred steps.Gu Lichun could only report on his work. After all, if he didn't report on his work, the other party would probe into his thoughts.

"Deng Chang, look, our first batch of alfalfa has been harvested, and the buyer hasn't come yet..." Gu Lichun meant to let Deng Chang find a way out, but he couldn't say it too bluntly.

Director Deng said: "Don't worry about this, as long as you grow alfalfa, you won't have to worry about selling it. The milk factory in the city has already called. After your two articles were published, more people called. In a few days, Someone should come to investigate." Gu Lichun breathed a sigh of relief.

After talking about work, Director Deng went back to Gu Lichun's thoughts. He said meaningfully: "Xiao Gu, I think you are a talent who can realize your ideals and ambitions only by ability. There are some things that others can do. , but you don't have to."

Gu Lichun was silent for a moment, and said: "Deng Zhang, I can tell that you are very distracted, and I will also tell you my thoughts from the bottom of my heart."

Director Deng nodded: "You say."

"I know that you are a person with high moral standards and strong principles. You are only used to walking the bright and right way in your life. However, I am different from you. My growth experience has taught me a truth: If you want to be a good person, you must You have to be smarter and more capable than the bad guys, and sometimes you have to be 'bad'."

Gu Lichun said: "When I was young, I read books and listened to dramas. One thing I was very upset about was, why a good person has to go through many hardships, and a bad person can always be proud until the end? Why do good people always have nothing to do with bad people? Of course, at the last moment, the bad guys are punished, and the justice of the good guys is upheld. But what about those processes? What about those long life processes? When justice comes too late, its meaning is reduced by half, in case someone cannot support In the end?

Deng Chang, I want to be a good person with strength and sharpness. As long as I stay above the bottom line and within the law, there is nothing I can't do. "

Director Deng was thoughtful, and Gu Lichun smiled slightly, "Look, when you were almost persuaded by me, I was actually very happy in my heart, and I felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment. I also have a sense of accomplishment if I can use language and a little bit of means to win over. Deng Chang, knowledge is power, and language is also power. The means of struggle are diverse, and we must be eclectic and use tactics flexibly.”

Director Deng: "..."

Gu Lichun felt that Director Deng needed to digest and think for a while, so he took the initiative to say: "Deng Chang, we have already walked [-] steps. I think my report today is too much. You need to think about it, so I won't bother you. "

Gu Lichun turned and left.

After leaving Deng Chang's sight, Gu Lichun let out a long sigh of relief. He had already noticed that Deng Chang had objections to his actions, and he felt that he didn't need to treat Secretary Zhu like that.

But what Gu Lichun thought was, do you think I'm flattering?No, you are wrong.I was playing with patting, just like patting a rubber ball. I will pat you a few times first, and I will continue to pat if you can bounce; if you can’t pat?The ball deflated, deflated and deflated.If the ball becomes a football, then you can only kick it with your feet, as far as you can, and you must be flexible in your behavior.

After Gu Lichun's two manuscripts were published, his popularity increased several notches. After all, he was someone who had appeared in the Beijing News.

After Gu Lichun went to the Beijing News, the broadcaster in the broadcasting room of the headquarter dug out the broadcast draft he had handed in from the pile of papers, and read it emotionally.The brotherhood of the three games and the five games is well known.It is said that the party committee of the headquarters highly affirmed Sanji's behavior, and Sanji sent another [-] bags of fertilizer to Wuchang.In the past few days, Sister Bai and Qi Ke were laughing from ear to ear, and the employees of the five games were also very happy, and Gu Lichun's popularity among the employees also increased accordingly.

Secretary Zhu has been full of spring breeze recently, and the smile on his face has never been broken. The people in the five field offices can feel a gust of wind blowing over their cheeks from time to time, and their work efficiency has improved a lot.As for Director Deng, he was still the same. Some people privately said that Deng Chang was "the spring breeze does not pass through the Yumen Pass".

Some people are happy and others are worried. Not to mention that the four games did not take advantage, but they were also discussed in private by full-time employees, saying that the leaders and employees of the four games were too low in ideological awareness and only wanted to take advantage of it. Occupy, it's just insane.

Recently, more and more people called the market office to inquire about alfalfa, both in the city and the province.Gu Lichun also received a letter from his uncle and something from his aunt.

In the letter, Yang Aiguo praised Gu Lichun severely, saying that his colleagues in the system read the article he published in the Beijing News and said it was good, and even his superior asked a few questions after reading it.

Gu Lichun didn't expect his uncle, who had a serious and reserved personality, to have such a passionate and unrestrained side.Yang Aiguo also said that he will help publicize their farm in the agricultural reclamation system.Of course, he also vaguely mentioned in the letter the matter of Wang Xiao's uncle Wang Youcai, saying that he has been in a bad mood recently.Wang Youcai stared at him. It was far away from Honghe Farm, so don't worry too much.Yang Aiguo told Gu Lichun to be careful of Wang Youcheng beside him, and he must pay attention to the way he speaks and acts, so as not to be caught by others.

After reading the letter, Gu Lichun silently thought about what his uncle said.

After several rounds of fighting, Gu Lichun has almost understood Wang Youcheng's routines.Because of his identity, it was impossible for Wang Youcheng to use Wang Xiao's inferior means to deal with him.He generally creates obstacles for himself with language and misinterpretation of policies.In terms of language, Gu Lichun has the confidence to deal with him; in terms of policy, as long as he pays more attention, it will be fine for the time being.What's more, although Wang Youcheng came with Secretary Zhu, Secretary Zhu didn't think much of him, especially recently, with his help, Secretary Zhu's dissatisfaction with Wang Youcheng became more and more obvious.

Gu Lichun decided to take it one step at a time, let Secretary Zhu accumulate his dissatisfaction with Wang Youcheng over time, and then find another opportunity to kick him out of the party committee five times.As for where he can kick, it depends on how strong his kick is.

Now, Gu Lichun's only worry is that he doesn't know what kind of person this new deputy secretary of the party committee is.If he was like Secretary Zhu again, Gu Lichun would not have to worry.Gu Lichun asked Mrs. Bai and staff member Liang about it, but they didn't know about it.He asked Deng Chang tactfully, and Deng Chang only said that he should do his job well, and don't worry about the rest.

A few days later, the farm office sent a notice saying that people from the Dongfeng Dairy Farm in the provincial capital were coming for an inspection, and people from the Department of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry were asked to prepare for the reception.

This was a major event in five games. Director Deng and Secretary Zhu not only asked people from the whole department to help, but also dispatched more than a dozen people from the production team below.In order to support the scene, Gu Lichun persuaded Secretary Zhu to bring in the five tractors and two large trucks from the production team, park them on the edge of the alfalfa field, and pretend to be ready to go. They don't ask, they just want to buy There are many alfalfa fields, and they have to be ready to ship at any time.

On this day, everyone put on neat and clean work clothes, cleaned the pig farm, several paths leading to the alfalfa field, and rearranged the dried alfalfa outside and in the warehouse.

Everything is ready, just waiting for someone to come.

Secretary Zhu told Gu Lichun: "Little Gu, you will introduce the situation of Alfalfa later. Don't be nervous and don't be stage fright. As long as you perform normally, you will be fine."

Gu Lichun said: "At first, I was a little nervous, but when I think of having seniors like you who have experience and seen the world at the front, I have confidence in my heart and I am not nervous at all."

Secretary Zhu smiled with satisfaction, and told Gu Lichun some precautions.

Director Deng also reminded Gu Lichun a few words: "Comrades from the provincial capital feel that they are from a big place, so it is inevitable that they are a little arrogant. As for you, adapt to the situation and be neither arrogant nor humble."

Gu Lichun hurriedly said: "Deng Chang, don't worry, I seldom have low self-esteem, and I won't embarrass Wu Ji."

Deng Chang glanced at him, and said softly: "I'm not afraid of your low self-esteem, I'm afraid of your arrogance, I remind you that enough is enough."

Gu Lichun: "..."

Secretary Zhu smoothed things over with a smile: "Old Deng, it's okay for young people to show off their confidence a little bit, don't be too strict. Xiao Gu, it's okay, keep a normal mind."

Gu Lichun nodded with a smile.

They were here to discuss reception matters, and the group of people from the production team were also whispering about today's affairs, especially the several production leaders, who talked most vigorously.

Ye Ainong grumbled in a low voice: "It's spring plowing, you called us all here just for an inspection? Is there really anyone willing to buy these weeds?"

Hu Dahua corrected: "It's not a weed, it's called alfalfa, it's grass."

Ye Ainong said: "I don't care what it's called, it's all grass anyway."

……

While they were discussing, Juniper came over with a dark face, took Ye Ainong's words, and said firmly: "If someone buys this thing, I will twist the head off and give you a kick."

Hu Dahua sneered twice: "Old Du, with your big broken head, it hurts me to kick the ball. If you want to bet, you should bet something real. For example, if you lose, you can buy us a cigarette or something."

Originally, everyone just laughed it off, but when they heard that there was a bet, they also booed together.

"That's right, Lao Du is here to bet something real, we don't care about your broken head."

"Old Du, do you dare to bet?"

……

Juniper said harshly: "Just bet, who is afraid of you? That's it. If the people in the provincial capital are willing to buy alfalfa, I'll buy a pack of winter cigars and distribute them to you; on the contrary, if they don't buy, you people Give me a pack of cigarettes. How about this, okay?"

"I can see it."

"Just do it."

The bet is simply set, and the result is waiting.

The production team was afraid that the leader would notice them, so they didn't dare to speak too loudly. After the bet, everyone would wink and communicate with their eyes and expressions.

After a while, an army green Jiefang truck drove in slowly. After the car stopped, two young men in white shirts and black leather shoes jumped out of it.Immediately afterwards, the driver and a middle-aged man in gray military casual clothes and a black briefcase got out of the cab.Officer Liang introduced to Gu Lichun in a low voice that the middle-aged man in gray clothes was surnamed Zheng, and he was the section chief of the Supply and Marketing Section of Dongfeng Dairy Farm.The other two were members of the supply and marketing department, the fat one was surnamed Zhang, and the tall one was surnamed Yu.

Director Deng and Secretary Zhu Qi Ke came forward to shake hands with the three of them. According to the level of Section Chief Zheng, Qi Ke of the same level can receive the reception.Today, Secretary Zhu and Deng Chang greeted him together, which was regarded as a high-standard reception.

While Zheng Ke was satisfied with the five receptions, he also felt a bit of arrogance in his heart. Such a warm reception must be tricky. It is estimated that the quality of the forage is not much better.He didn't want to come here at first, but his superior happened to read the article in the "Agricultural Daily", and the comrades of Director Deng tried his best to recommend the leaders of the lobby to come and have a look, so Section Chief Zheng and his party had to be ordered to come. .

Section Chief Zheng looked at the desolate surroundings with critical eyes. The roads were not well built, and the surrounding infrastructure was only a simple pig farm, and there was even a row of thatched sheds beside it.It is said that Wuchang is the first time to plant alfalfa. The situation is really not optimistic.

Even though the three of them hid it well, everyone still felt their disgust.

Director Deng said politely: "This is a pig farm, the place is simple, and the hospitality is not good. I will entertain you on the second floor of the cafeteria later. Let's go and see Clover first."

Section Chief Zheng said with a dry smile, "That's right, let's get down to business first and go see Clover."

Secretary Zhu quickly pushed Gu Lichun out: "Little Gu, you lead the way."

Chief Zheng looked at Gu Lichun, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, right?How short is the five-point field?

Gu Lichun walked in front and said as he walked: "We have planted more than 200 acres of alfalfa in total, and harvested 10 catties of hay in the first stubble, some of which are stored outside and some are in the warehouse. One batch."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fat man next to Section Chief Zheng questioned: "200 catties of hay have been harvested on more than 10 mu of land? Your hay has enough moisture."

Both Secretary Zhu and Director Deng looked unhappy, but Wang Youcheng felt much happier.

Gu Lichun smiled, not in a hurry or annoyed: "Comrade Zhang, the leader said, 'If you don't investigate, you don't have the right to speak'. You can take a look at Alfalfa before drawing conclusions."

Chief Zheng smoothed things over and said, "That's right, let's have a look first before talking about it."

Section member Zhang didn't speak, but he looked disapproving.

While they were talking, they had already walked in front of the thatched hut. Gu Lichun asked Zhao Gao and Xiaokang to remove the tarpaulin and rain cloth on the haystack, and a square alfalfa haystack appeared in front of them.

Gu Lichun asked the two of them to move down a few bundles of alfalfa on the pedestal, so that the three of Section Chief Zheng could check nearby.

Chief Zheng first leaned over to observe for a while, smelled the smell, and there was a faint scent of grass and trees at the end of his nose; he turned it over a few times with his own hands, and crushed the leaves and stalks with his fingers. The alfalfa was very dry. , the color of the leaves of the alfalfa is still green, there is no mold or spot on it, and the stalks are crushed. This is obviously to facilitate the dehydration and drying of the stalks.

Section Chief Zheng nodded. As the section chief of the supply and marketing department, he naturally knows the quality level of grass and the like.The alfalfa from the five farms can be rated as superior forage.

Section Chief Zheng put away his contempt just now, and said sincerely: "The alfalfa in your farm grows really well, the harvesting method is correct, the time is just right, not too early or too late, and the drying method is also very particular. The rain is not mixed with other weeds, and the leaves of the alfalfa are rarely shed, and the nutrients are not lost much."

Staff member Zhang was not convinced, and wanted to find fault, but he couldn't find anything wrong after searching for a long time.

At this time, Officer Yu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked, "Excuse me, which technician handled this alfalfa?"

Section Chief Zheng also looked at Director Deng and Secretary Zhu, and he also wanted to know who this person was.

Secretary Zhu pointed at Gu Lichun: "It's this little Comrade Gu, who planted the alfalfa with everyone. That's why I asked him to lead you the way."

"Him?" All three were a little surprised.

Section Chief Zheng was the first to return to normal, and asked with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Gu, if I'm not mistaken, you shouldn't exceed this year, right?"

Gu Lichun nodded: "Well, I am 15 years old this year. However, I am the eldest son, my family is poor, I was the head of the family early, and my mental age is 25 years old."

Everyone: "..." Can age be counted like this?

Section Chief Zheng nodded with a smile, and asked, "Where did you learn how to dry alfalfa?"

Gu Lichun looked at Deng Chang and Secretary Zhu, and said: "Director Deng brought me a box of study materials from Xinjiang Province, and Secretary Zhu gave me theoretical and ideological guidance. In addition, I have experience in growing crops. Learn from one instance and figure it out slowly.”

Section Chief Zheng nodded again: "With only a box of materials, the first time I planted alfalfa so well, it is commendable, and it is really a formidable future."

Clerk Yu also came forward to shake hands with Gu Lichun and asked him some professional questions.

Officer Zhang was dissatisfied, so he called Officer Yu, and the two climbed up to check the condition of the haystack to see if they were cheating. They checked around and found that the quality of the whole stack of grass was exactly the same.

Officer Zhang didn't speak any more along the way.

Gu Lichun then led them to the warehouse of the pig farm. The quality of the alfalfa inside was the same as outside. No, it should be said that the quality inside the warehouse was better than outside.

After the alfalfa was planted, Gu Lichun mixed some water from the space farm into it when watering, but because the area was too large, he couldn't take care of all of it. In some places, more water was poured, and the quality of the alfalfa was higher. If it is not taken care of, it is normal quality.The dozen stacks outside are of normal quality.The alfalfa plants in the warehouse are larger and more fragrant.Of course, the most critical difference is not the appearance, which can only be seen after the cows have eaten pasture for a period of time.

The more section chief Zheng looked, the more satisfied he was, and he made a decision immediately: "We have all the grass for this batch, and the price will be based on the market price, 15 yuan per thousand catties, and 10 yuan for 1500 catties. If you agree, we will draw up a contract .As for the next round, I will call the venue to ask for instructions. If the superior agrees, we can also sign the contract in advance."

Director Deng and Secretary Zhu looked at each other, discussed with Qi Ke, and agreed.It's about the same price as other places.

Section Chief Zheng and the others went back to the venue to sign the contract first, and then went to the cafeteria to entertain them for dinner.

Before leaving, Director Deng said: "Little Gu, you can sign the contract as long as Qi Ke is here, and you can tell the comrades in the production team that they will load the alfalfa on tractors and large trucks, neatly, and cover them with tarpaulin and rain cloth. , when the contract is signed, it will be delivered to the train station." Gu Lichun nodded in agreement.

At this moment, the group of people in the production team were still looking at each other, especially Juniper, whose dark face was flushed and looked embarrassed.

Everyone winked, and someone patted Juniper on the shoulder again, reminding him not to forget to buy cigarettes.

Jun Jun said angrily: "Buy, buy, my old Du is a man who keeps his word."

Only then did everyone go to work contentedly.

Ye Ainong smiled shyly at Gu Lichun, "Comrade Gu, I never thought that alfalfa could be sold for money."

Gu Lichun didn't expect to beat the dog in the water, but had a gentle attitude towards it: "I said at the meeting that alfalfa is the king of forage, and the quality of alfalfa in our farm is especially high. You see, even the provincial dairy farm has recognized it. Brother Ye , you have never been in contact with it before, and it is normal not to accept it. Now that it has been proved that growing alfalfa can make money, I hope you can cooperate with us more in the future. There are only a few people in our agriculture and animal husbandry department. When planting alfalfa, all go to the ground It's not easy to work."

Ye Ainong nodded again and again: "That's right, it's not easy for you."

Hu Dahua also said coolly that he would definitely help next time.

Gu Lichun knew that the employees of these production teams were generally not well-educated and rough-tempered.Like the last time he planted alfalfa, in fact, he could also suggest that Secretary Deng Changzhu and the others take orders to suppress it, but that would be difficult to convince the public.Deng Chang probably also had this concern at the time.

Half an hour later, Chen Jie came over and told them that the contract had been signed and asked them to load the car.Gu Lichun gave an order, and everyone started to load the car together.

These people no longer have any resistance to work, and they work very hard one by one.Many family members also heard the news and came to help.

Gu Lichun smiled and said to them: "Everyone, our first crop of alfalfa has been sold for a total of 1500 yuan. After the bill is settled, you can receive your wages." Everyone cheered, and everyone smiled.

The first crop is sold for 1500 yuan, and the alfalfa can be harvested four times a year, which adds up to 6000 yuan.If there are more varieties next year, how much will it cost?You know, there is nothing else in the five games, but there is wasteland.

Everyone looked at Gu Lichun, just like looking at RMB, with bright eyes.

Director Deng and Secretary Zhu entertained Section Chief Zheng and the others in the cafeteria on the second floor. Originally, Gu Lichun could also go, but, thinking about Section Chief Qi's face in the morning, he thought it was all right.

Gu Lichun deliberately went to find Qi Ke, and said with a embarrassed face: "Qi Ke, I heard that entertaining guests requires drinking, I'm young, and I can't hold alcohol well, and I feel uncomfortable when I drink, and I don't say anything about it, it's nonsense. You said, if I go, I will not drink if other people drink it. I am afraid that Zheng Ke and the others will misunderstand and embarrass me if I drink it. gone."

Qi Ke asked about Gu Lichun's physical condition with concern, and readily agreed.

Gu Lichun ran away as if he had received an amnesty, fearing that someone would overtake him.Chico couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, he was still a young man after all.Who said you have to drink when entertaining guests.

When Gu Lichun returned to the pig farm, Chen Jie saw him surprised and asked, "Did you not go to accompany the guests?"

Gu Lichun shook his head: "Enough of the limelight in the morning, leave it to others in the evening."

Section Chief Zheng and the others stayed at the farm guest house for one night. The next day, Field Chief Deng and Secretary Zhu signed a reservation contract with them.Section Chief Zheng said that after he went back, he would ask the accountant to pay the money, including the next batch of advance payments.

A few days later, Dongfeng Dairy remitted the money as scheduled, including the advance payment, a total of 2 yuan.Although it wasn't a big deal for other games, it was a relief for the poor five games.

After receiving the money, the finance department immediately notified the employees' family members to collect their wages.

Those family members crowded at the door of the finance department, waiting for their names to be called inside.Wages are paid on a daily basis, 18 yuan a day, and temporary workers are paid [-] yuan a month.Some people work so much that half a month can make up for the previous month's money.Everyone had satisfied smiles on their faces.

When Gu Lichun passed by, everyone greeted him with a smile, especially Aunt Tao and Sister Hu who were most familiar with Gu Lichun.

"Xiao Gu, the alfalfa has been planted, is there any work for your agriculture and animal husbandry department?"

"Yeah, yeah, Xiao Gu, remember to let us know if you have any work next time."

……

Gu Lichun thought for a while and said, "I do have a plan, but I haven't finished it yet. I'll tell you when Deng Chang and Secretary Zhu agree."

Everyone's appetite was whetted by Gu Lichun, looking for news from various aspects.

"Xiao Gu, are you going to do a side job, like black beans and melon seeds?"

"Not necessarily, that thing is not very profitable. It may be something else."

In order to keep a secret, Gu Lichun turned around and went into the office of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department without saying anything.He also came to collect the money, and the money that the big guys advanced together should be sent to them.

After receiving the money, Gu Lichun calculated the time, and it was time to go home. Originally, he had a three-day vacation at the end of March, but he was busy harvesting alfalfa at that time, so he didn't take a break.This time the work is over, you can rest.Gu Lichun greeted Qi Ke and Sister Bai, saying that he wanted to take a three-day vacation, and the two naturally agreed.

The salary was received, the advance payment was also recovered, and there were three days of vacation, Gu Lichun's mood was like the weather in April, the sun was shining brightly.Humming a song, he got on his bicycle and was about to go back to the pig farm when he happened to meet Wang Youcheng with a gloomy face at the door of the office.

Wang Youcheng looked at Gu Lichun with a fake smile, and said, "Little Gu, are you going home again? You are such a dutiful son."

Gu Lichun hummed coldly as a response.

Wang Youcheng had no intention of leaving. He looked around and asked mysteriously, "Xiao Gu, aren't you curious about your own life experience? Don't you want to know who your biological parents are?"
