Chapter 92 Don't be the first bird to stick its head out
Liang Sanping had already forgotten how many consecutive nights he had been up, and every time he felt tired, it was always dawn. At this time, he would go to the cafeteria to find something to eat, eat casually, and then fall asleep.
When he opened the door, however, he saw Li Feng standing at his doorstep with a slightly flushed face.
"Ah Feng, why didn't you knock on the door?!" Liang Sanping looked at Li Feng in surprise and asked. Li Feng's face turned red as she stammered: "I... I was afraid of disturbing your work, those things I don't quite understand..."
"Just knock on the door, what's the big deal?!" Liang Sanping smiled and said to Li Feng: "Come in, come in... sit down, I'll go make you a cup of tea."
But Li Feng shook her head with a red face and said to Liang Sanping, "No, I still have to go back to the construction site to work. This is noodles, I think you must be hungry after working all night. Hurry up and eat..."
As she spoke, she stuffed an aluminum lunch box into Liang Sanping's hand. Then, with a red face, she ran away. Looking at the back of Li Feng, Liang Sanping smiled. Opening the lunch box, he saw that there were still warm noodles with a poached egg on top and some chopped scallions sprinkled on it.
He put down his lunchbox in his room and then went to wash up with his basin and toothbrush.
"Hey, kiddo! It seems like we've lost quite a few eggs from our house over the past few days..." Li Tingbang said with a smile as he watched his daughter Li Feng run back from the dormitory to visit him and his old comrade Liang Daping at the construction site.
"Hmm... yeah! Dad, I don't know what's wrong with the old hen lately. She's laying fewer eggs, shouldn't we raise a few more hens?" Li Tingbang asked. Li Feng's face turned even redder at this.
"Hmm... looks like we'll have to ask your mom to slaughter that old hen, anyway it won't lay eggs anymore. What's the point of keeping it?!" Li Tingbang continued with a smile. Li Feng's face turned even redder and she couldn't utter a word.
This girl is just someone who can't tell lies, ask a few more questions and she doesn't know what to say. Li Tingbang looked at his daughter and thought to himself with emotion, "A big girl doesn't listen to her mother!" But how about listening to father?! What can this old father do at this time?!
Li Tingbang didn't expect that Liang Daping's younger brother would make his own daughter infatuated in such a short time. Now it's even better, the chicken head at home was secretly given to Liang Sanping by her, and she couldn't bear to eat it herself!
"Daughter, if you like Sanping, that's good. This little rascal dares to bully you, come back and tell your father." Li Tingbang looked at his daughter and sighed: "A girl has grown up, indeed not controlled by her parents..."
"Father..." Li Feng's face turned red again, but she didn't say anything and ran away. It was reasonable that Liang Sanping could coax Li Feng, as they had lived together for decades in their past lives.
To put it bluntly, Li Feng's body has more moles than he himself is aware of. So, coaxing Li Feng into submission is only reasonable. Although Li Feng finds it strange, interacting with Liang Sanping, whom she hasn't been in contact with much, feels like they've known each other for countless years.
But she attributed it to fate and didn't think much of anything else.
Liang Sanping did not sleep in until noon as he usually did, but instead got up after a short nap. After carefully reviewing the two reports he had completed last night, Liang Sanping washed his face and hurried out the door.
Among these reports, one of them is Liang Sanping's report in response to Ye Jianwen. After careful consideration, Liang Sanping still decided to bring forward a profession for future generations.
And this profession also absorbed a large number of retired soldiers in later generations. Thinking about the impending storm, Liang Sanping believed that this profession was necessary to appear ahead of time. At least they appeared ahead of time and would prevent potential tragedies from happening.
Even if it's just one case, Liang Sanping thinks it's worth it. Another report was submitted to a group of people including Ge Tai, Yang Zao and Professor Liu Lao.
This is the overall equity division plan for Vegetable Company and the overall idea of dividing it among the ordinary people. This is a report file formed after Liang Sanping and Xia Zhendong discussed it for many nights in a row and revised it countless times.
To be honest, although Liang Sanping himself is the initiator of this report. But even if he himself, it is certain that this report will still have omissions. If implemented, there will undoubtedly be many problems encountered.
But Liang Sanping is not afraid of these problems, there are problems to deal with them. It's no big deal. Liang Sanping, who has been familiar with the position of "Fire Chief" since his previous life, does not worry about these things.
In the early 90s, I was thrown into the worst, most chaotic and most troublesome working area of the entire farm. But in just one year, wasn't it enough to make these jumping and kicking turtle sons obedient?!
The dismissal was dismissed, and the rogue was cleaned up. The fake cowhide was directly knocked down. In the end, no one dared to be crooked in front of Liang Sanping again, and even the leaders of the scene were amazed at Liang Sanping's handling ability.
Unfortunately, Liang Sanping was not willing to give in to others. Otherwise, even if he had humbly greeted the leaders during the New Year's festival, he wouldn't have ended up squatting in the district director's position until almost retirement.
What's the use of having abilities? If you can't "run ahead", then just stay where you are and wait for retirement. Liang Sanping wouldn't have been able to advance if he hadn't met a leader who appreciated him later on, otherwise he might have retired directly from his position as trade union chairman.
"Teacher, this is the preliminary plan book that I and Lao Xia have come up with. Please help us revise it..." Holding the plan book, Liang Sanping directly found Liu Laoshi who was inspecting the rubber forest.
Professor Liu took the plan book and didn't open it directly to take a look, but instead brought Liang Sanping back to his own office. He placed the plan book on his desk, pondered for a moment, and then said to Liang Sanping.
"Sanping! I know you and Xiaoxia have put in a lot of effort for this plan. But I still want to tell you one thing, be prepared. Human strength is limited after all, some things can only be done with utmost effort..."
Li Sanping was startled upon hearing this! Professor Liu would never say such things without reason, and he had said them. So there must be a reason for it.
"Teacher, what do you mean by that?" Liang Sanping asked cautiously to Professor Liu, who sighed and smiled bitterly in response.
"Sanping, I know you promised to help Xiaoye with his plan. But what I can tell you is that this plan won't be of much use." However, Professor Liu said to Liang Sanping, "If we let them return to the city, how many young people will be left unemployed?!"
"These unemployed youths don't need to be resettled?! Now the countryside is also gradually reforming, and the farm reclamation is also gradually reforming. Undoubtedly, these soldiers who have retired from the army will be accepted by localities and farm reclamation, but only to this extent."
When Liu Lao said that, Liang Sanping couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He thought there would be another problem with the vegetable planting industry. It turned out to be Old Ye's problem after all!
But listening to Professor Liu's words, Liang Sanping still had some dissatisfaction: "Teacher, how can this matter be handled like this?! I think their training and discipline have a lot of room for improvement in the resettlement work!"
Liang Sanping is very confident about this, as the country has entered a period of rapid development. A large number of urban unemployed youth returning to the city will lead to a period of great chaos and madness.
Then, the top leaders will hold a special meeting for this. The fierce battle began. Countless "strong men" who thought they were individuals were wiped out in this sweep.
Those who were lucky were sent to the Great Northwest, squatting for seven or eight years, or even over a decade before returning to society. The unlucky ones, from being swept away to being directly dragged out to feed on peanuts, wouldn't last two weeks.
"I think they are quite promising, but it still needs some time." Liang Sanping muttered to Professor Liu: "Besides, many of them have devoted half their lives to the country. Doesn't this count for anything?"
Professor Liu didn't say a word, and in fact, he himself didn't know what to do about this matter. Although he was advising Liang Sanping, he actually had some hidden hopes that Liang Sanping could achieve something.
"Sanping, you don't think about it either. If you settle the retired soldiers, what about those who return to the city and know the truth?! How will they be arranged?!" Professor Liu's face sank as he spoke to Liang Sanping: "At that time, the pressure on the arrangement of knowing the truth will definitely come to you! What will you do then?"
This Xiaoliang Sanping was really blinded, he didn't expect this. But when Professor Liu mentioned it, it's indeed true! If they solved the problem of demobilized soldiers themselves, what would that be?!
High-level leaders have unresolved issues, and you go solve them yourself?! Your sharp edges are too exposed, and sooner or later someone will find fault with you. Who knows, there might even be people who will find ways to take you down.
"Sanping, listen to the teacher's words. Honestly do your vegetables and help the common people on Qiong Island become rich. This is what you should do, shooting the bird that sticks its head out! If you're too outstanding, you'll be the target of public criticism!"
Liu Lao's words made Liang Sanping hesitate. In his previous life, he had suffered a loss because of his sharp edges, and when he was the team leader, Qu Director had severely dealt with him.
That time even forced Liang Sanping to swear to heaven in front of his wife that he would never help anyone who had bullied him with District Director again. This matter, left a deep impression...
"Leave the plan book here, I'll look at it and then find you." Professor Liu patted Liang Sanping's shoulder and said: "You go back and think about it..."
