Chapter 295 Director Li said patiently: "You can't solve the problem this way!" Ning Weidong said with a smile: "Director Li, you are highly respected and you have to weigh the county's affairs." Director Li narrowed his eyes slightly. Of course he understood the hidden meaning, but as he was an old veteran, he was able to bend and stretch. Now that Ning Weidong has seized the opportunity to mobilize the masses, he has already taken the initiative. If he wants to solve the problem, he must discuss it together. "Comrade Xiao Ning, please don't speak in secret in front of others." Director Li asked, "If you have any ideas, just speak up." Ning Weidong said: "Look at what you said, don't you know what I am thinking? It's nothing more than building the factory smoothly." Director Li frowned and remained silent. Ning Weidong continued, "Director Li, it's just a matter of raising your hand for you. The provincial machinery bureau has already issued a document. As a branch of the provincial 'Chonghua Machinery Factory', there is no problem with the procedures. According to normal procedures, you can't stop it, and the superiors can't blame you for this matter. Why bother~" Director Li sneered, "As expected, he is from Beijing. He has connections everywhere!" Ning Weidong retorted, "I can't compare to you, a lord of a hundred miles, a parent of one side."

Director Li's expression became even gloomier. Ning Weidong said that he was a county magistrate in ancient times, which was equivalent to an insult. Director Li said in a deep voice: "Young man, do you really think that you can force me to give in with just those few hundred people?" Ning Weidong was not polite either: "Of course not. A few hundred people are nothing. You must have a way to solve it. But even if you solve these few hundred people, there will still be thousands or tens of thousands of people. There will always be people who want to be workers." Director Li's face was about to burst into tears, and he simply stood up and said, "When you meet a bosom friend, a thousand cups are not enough, and when you are not on the same page, a word is too much. Please~" Ning Weidong also stood up and nodded politely. Zhao Lichun didn't say much. In fact, they had already anticipated that it would be difficult for Director Li to surrender under this level of pressure at the moment. If they really wanted to decide the winner, they would have to continue planning. "Director Li, I'll go back first." Zhao Lichun smiled. Ning Weidong could get angry and angry, but he had to maintain the unity of the team. In particular, Director Li is not only his superior, but also an old comrade. Zhao Lichun must be given due respect. Director Li nodded with a complicated expression, feeling somewhat helpless. …… Return to Zhao Lichun's office. The two sat down and lit another cigarette. Zhao Lichun said, "You are really stubborn~" Ning Weidong said: "It's not that easy. Old comrades who have been to the battlefield will not admit defeat so easily, let alone against young people like us." Zhao Lichun curled his lips: "What are you going to do next?" Ning Weidong said: "Let's see Director Li's reaction first and see how high his prestige in the county is." …… More than an hour later.

Director Li's office was filled with smoke. There were about ten men sitting or standing there, some smoking cigarettes and some smoking pipes. It was winter and the windows were not open, so it looked like there was a fire. Director Li sat behind his desk with a gloomy face, glancing at everyone in the room. These people were the heads of various production teams in the county. Those who contributed more labor to Ning Weidong were all called over. The atmosphere in the room was depressing and no one spoke. Director Li has just said what he meant. He hopes that they can take everyone from their respective villages back home, whether male or female, and not cause trouble. Under normal circumstances, these people would definitely rush to take action with just one word from Director Li. But today no one was willing to agree. It wasn't that they had any objections to Director Li, but because money was involved, and if they really expressed their opinions casually, they would be spitted to death when they returned to the production team. In the past two years, the coastal villages in the county have all benefited from the trade war and are now living a prosperous life. The villages not near the sea can only watch helplessly, and they have long felt unbalanced. Now that I finally have the chance to make money, Ning Weidong has raised his salary to one yuan a day, which is almost as much as that of a regular state-owned enterprise worker. If you can work for three months, you can earn nearly 100 yuan. As the old saying goes, destroying someone's financial resources is like killing his parents. Although the leaders of these production teams usually have the final say, they also know that it is difficult to offend the public. "What? Is my words no longer effective?" Director Li raised his voice. Everyone in the room still lowered their heads, but someone couldn't wait and said, "Old Director, you...how are we going to tell our fellow villagers when we go back?" Director Li slammed the table and said, "Why can't you tell me? Did I ask you to do something illegal?" The man shrank his neck and dared not say any more. But if someone says one thing, someone else will inevitably say another: "Old Director, you know the situation in our county best in recent years. The villages near the sea have been enjoying good food and good drinks, and many people have been jealous of them for a long time. Now, there is finally a way to make money, but you insist on cutting it off... How can I explain it when I go back?" Director Li frowned, glanced at the others, and felt helpless: "You guys mean the same thing~" No one responded, but silence was the best answer. "One dollar a day!" Director Li underestimated the power of money. He had transferred from the army to the local area and had been working there for more than ten years. This was the first time he encountered such a situation. But things have to be done. Especially today, calling so many people here, if things don't work out, it will be a blow to his prestige. Director Li gritted his teeth and said, "Don't emphasize this to me. I won't stop ordinary people from making money. But there are some things that we should not be vague about!" Everyone lowered their heads and no one responded. Director Li snorted and said, "Besides, the province has issued a document to implement the household contract responsibility system soon. Those who want to be workers and only care about the money, go and ask if they still want this land!" Everyone was stunned. People at their level didn't know the correct policy, so Director Li simply made it clear. This changed the minds of many people.

But at this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Director Li frowned and shouted, "Come in." The liaison officer immediately pushed the door open and said, "Director, there are a lot of people outside who want to ask you for an explanation as to why you don't let them be workers." Director Li's mind raced, guessing that this was Ning Weidong's trick, and sneered, "What a cunning trick. How many people are here? Ask them to send a few representatives in." The contact person responded immediately. Director Li turned to look at the people in the room again, raised his hand and pointed a few times: "Come here, take those people back to me if they belong to someone else." After saying that, he leaned back in his chair and waved his hand to signal them to go out. These people came in a large crowd and hurried out. They were not afraid of Director Li's temper just now, but when they heard that someone had arrived at the county government office, they really panicked. This is of too serious a nature. Fortunately, Director Li didn't want to make a fuss about it. He asked them to take the person back and didn't intend to investigate further. (End of this chapter)
