Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars

Time went by and another month passed. God did not disappoint the weather station and there was still no rain.

The farm had another bumper harvest not long ago, which attracted leaders from other departments to come and watch it in person.

The leaders did not disappoint. All the harvested grain was moved out again, leaving the farm workers feeling disappointed for a while.

Qi Wei no longer had time to worry about it at this time, because a major change had occurred in the ministry and Deputy Minister Xiao had already left for the local area to perform his duties.

This is nothing new. As early as 57, thousands of cadres went to the countryside, and this has continued in the past two years. What surprised him was that Vice Minister Xiao had made great contributions this time, so why would he go to the countryside? What would he do if he left?

In an office filled with smoke, a group of bigwigs were having a meeting.

Qi Wei was trembling in the corner. He couldn't afford to offend anyone here, so why should he come to sit in?

"I don't agree. Since Lao Xiao took office, his work achievements have been obvious to all. Not only have the subordinate factories exceeded their targets, but he also single-handedly managed Chaoyang Farm and solved the major problem of food for so many people!" A big shot slammed the table.

"That's right. If it weren't for Chaoyang Farm, we wouldn't have it so easy this year! Not to mention the food supply, just the vegetable supply, the Guard Corps Supply Department, the Education Bureau, the Ministry of Heavy Industry, the Academy of Sciences, etc., all of them are benefiting from us!" said another big shot.

"I understand your feelings, comrades, but the situation now is critical and precarious. The most important thing at the moment is food. Lao Xiao is so capable, he should take the initiative to shoulder the burden and solve the difficulties for the country and the people!" Deputy Squad Leader Huang glanced at everyone, stood up and said seriously.

"Besides, Lao Xiao is the top leader in the Northeast this time. If we can achieve results, we will definitely make further progress when we come back. This is not a bad thing!"

Everyone was silent. How could they refute now that things had come to this?

"Now that Lao Xiao is gone, what will happen to the work he was responsible for?" asked the leader, slamming the table.

"Well, the work of each factory will continue to be led by the department, and Comrade Qi Wei can be responsible for the work on the farm!" Deputy Squad Leader Huang looked at Qi Wei in the corner and said with a smile.

His target this time is actually the farm. Whoever controls the food at this time has the right to speak.

"I heard from Lao Xiao that the farm is managed by a young comrade named Li Guohua. Lao Xiao also said that he is an expert in agriculture and the good harvests in the past two years have a lot to do with him!" a big shot asked curiously.

Because Li Guohua didn't want to be too involved with the senior leaders, he seldom came to the department and no one knew him well.

"This Li Guohua is young, but he has done a lot of things! I have no less than ten letters of complaint about him. They include beating up worker comrade Xu Jiang, arbitrarily firing and recruiting workers, and even keeping a bunch of children who are related to him. His problems are very serious!" Deputy Squad Leader Huang said earnestly.

He had already made sufficient preparations for this day. It's not that he didn't look for Li Guohua, but the other party was unmoved and acted like he wouldn't do it if he talked too much, which made Deputy Squad Leader Huang very angry.

Okay, it’s irrelevant, right? Then I’ll help you and see how you support your sister-in-law in the future.

Everyone was shocked to hear so many crimes committed by Li Guohua. This is a new era. Anyone who does this would be seeking death, right?

"Comrade Qi Wei, you have been on the farm all the time, so tell us what you have to say!" the leader slammed the table and said to Qi Wei.

He has a good relationship with Deputy Minister Xiao and doesn't believe he would use such a person.

“Leader Long, I…I…” Qi Wei had a sad face and said “I” twice without uttering a word.

The main reason is that he doesn't dare to slander Li Guohua. If something happens to him, he will definitely drag himself into it with his vengeful character.

"Comrade Qi Wei, just speak boldly. We all support you!" Deputy Squad Leader Huang gave Qi Wei an encouraging look and said.

He had heard that Qi Wei was bullied by Li Guohua on the farm. No one listened to him and he was almost becoming a mascot.

"It's not that serious actually! Xu Jiang was lazy and didn't want to work. He even stole vegetables and fruits from the farm. Li Guohua was kind-hearted and didn't want to send him to labor camp, so he beat him up and drove him away."

"As for raising kids, except for his sister and sister-in-law, the others had nothing to do with him. One of the families had four kids, and their father had passed away. Their mother alone couldn't support them, so he helped raise them.

As for the other two children, I heard that their parents were professors at Peking University and had gone missing. Their grandfather was an old postman who had just passed away. No one in the welfare home or on the street was willing to raise them, so he took them in. "

"As for recruiting workers to plant trees, I can't say much about it, because I never understand how he works, but the results every time prove that he did nothing wrong!"

Qi Wei thought for a long time and decided that he didn't want to be a field manager, so why offend anyone? In the end, he answered honestly.

When everyone heard this, they were immediately in awe. What a good comrade he is. He has been silently contributing and never complaining.

"Well, no matter what he says, he is only 20 years old today, and he graduated with a degree in textiles. How much experience can he have? This shows that the land on the farm is a treasure, but no one has discovered it before. I believe that under the leadership of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, with scientific planting, the farm will definitely get better and better!"

Deputy squad leader Huang glanced at Qi Wei and was very angry. No wonder they said Qi Wei was unpopular in the department. This piece of rotten wood is useless.

"Well, a technical secondary school student's unruly way can make the farm harvest good, so if the experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences come in, the farm will definitely reach new heights!"

"Yes, this summer's harvest will be several thousand tons again. We can't neglect this farm!"

"That makes sense!"

When everyone present heard what Deputy Monitor Huang said, they all agreed very much.

Qi Wei looked at the excited crowd and had a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start.

Since going to the farm, he has become increasingly skeptical about his previous knowledge.

The big ponds in the fields often gurgled with water right in front of him. You know, the river has almost dried up!

He has already started secretly asking his fellow villagers about the story of the Dragon King and studying theology, otherwise the logic would not make sense.

"Then what arrangements should be made for Comrade Li Guohua?" asked Leader Long.

He also thought that what Deputy Squad Leader Huang said was a wise and prudent statement, but Li Guohua's matter had to be handled properly, and the meritorious officials should not be allowed to shed blood and tears. Otherwise, how would the people below view them, and how would they work wholeheartedly in the future?

Seeing that everyone else agreed, Deputy Squad Leader Huang had no choice but to say, "Since it's all fabricated, let's not pursue it. Just go back to where you came from. The textile factory is still short of a few deputy factory directors, so I think we should let Zheng Aimin be the deputy factory director and he can go to the textile factory to be the logistics director."

"Well, I know Lao Zheng. He is an old comrade with a strong will. I have no objection to him being the deputy director of the textile factory!"

"I agree!"
