When my senior brother called me, I naturally didn't dare to take anything seriously. After all, he was not only my supporter, but also my close brother, so I immediately freshened up and drove there.
When we arrived at Nancheng No. 2, there was still the zombie-faced old lady who had replaced Uncle Zhang at the door. Of course, there was also an additional Zhao Zhonghua.
When he saw me coming, he pulled me and said that Mr. Chen arrived at eight o'clock and was convening the staff of the agency to give lectures. They were all high-sounding words. There was nothing for us non-staff personnel. Let's go and eat first.
breakfast.
The breakfast in the agency canteen is very good, with a combination of meat and vegetables, exquisite and compact, and has the feel of southern-style morning tea. However, I drank too much wine yesterday and felt a little uncomfortable, so I just ordered a bowl of white porridge and some pickles, and drank it slowly
Wait, ask the shopkeeper, Mr. Chen came to see me to catch up on old times and stand up, or is there really something going on?
Zhao Zhonghua shook his head and said he didn't know. What kind of reward do you expect? I guess you, the boss, wouldn't care if I raised your first-level salary. He had just arrived and was too lazy to come forward and engage in such nonsense.
The things are all owned by my old subordinates anyway, so Boss Chen won’t mind.
The two of us had breakfast in the cafeteria for about an hour and chatted about the current situation. The shopkeeper told me that it was indeed the shadow of the famous tree. There had been chaos in the past few months, and even he, a non-staff member, was tired.
I have leg cramps. Nanhai today, Maoming tomorrow, everything is busy. However, since the senior brother came to the southeast to take up his post, all the ghosts and demons have disappeared without a trace. Tell me, what is this rhythm?
I laughed and said that this is the rhythm of peace in the world.
The shopkeeper also told me that since Huang Pengfei came back from the training camp, his temper has become calmer and his strength seems to be much better. In June, he returned to Maoshan and it is said that he got a lot of benefits. Huang Pengfei has always hated Xiao Xiao.
, even you have been implicated, you have to be careful about that guy, and don’t try to trick you or stumble you when the time comes.
I shrugged and said that Huang Pengfei and his like are just reeds on the wall and bamboo shoots in the mountains. How much influence can they have? Besides, aren't you and Mr. Chen covering me? Are you afraid of me?
During the conversation, Cao Yanjun walked in, greeted us with a smile, and said that he was looking for you two everywhere, but unexpectedly you all came here to eat. Director Chen finished his work and said he wanted to see you two, let's go.
Come with me.
I stood up, patted Cao Yanjun on the shoulder, and said okay, Lao Cao, when Boss Chen comes back this time, you will be a confidant, and your future will be unlimited, right?
Cao Yanjun smiled and said that it was not the recommendation of you and the shopkeeper. With my ability, I am just an errand boy. Big things need to be handled by you. Zhao Zhonghua followed. It’s okay, we are all non-staff.
Temporary workers, if you want to be promoted and make a fortune, it must be those of you who work down-to-earth. Xiao Cao, don't be humble.
After chatting and laughing, we arrived at the small conference room. Cao Yanjun did not come in. Instead, he sent me and the shopkeeper into the room and closed the door.
Walking into the small conference room, the senior brother was sitting at the main seat, with Dong Zhongming next to him. The senior brother stood up, shook hands with me, and then cordially greeted us to sit down. He was still wearing the fitted Chinese tunic suit, with a calm temperament, but compared to
Tired at the beginning of the month, the senior brother was full of energy at this time, his eyes were as bright as lightning, and the smile on his face was calm and composed. He had obviously entered the role and seemed to have completed it well.
After a long separation, we exchanged pleasantries. When we talked about my physical injuries, my senior brother even took my pulse in person.
The result was not bad, but the senior brother told me that I still have some hidden diseases in my body, and I have to be careful not to work too hard, otherwise there is a risk of recurrence. The senior brother looks very majestic on the surface, but privately
He was very friendly down there, and he didn't hide anything from us. He talked to us about some of his recent actions. The shopkeeper had been working with senior brother for a long time, just like Dong Zhongming and others, so there was nothing to restrict him.
Yes, we chatted about everything, and there was no barrier between us.
Zhao Zhonghua has lived in the south for a long time, and there are many twists and turns here. He is very knowledgeable. I can see that when the senior brother arrives in the southeast, his contact with the shopkeeper is not once or twice. Judging from these remarks, I feel great
The senior brother seemed to want to reuse Zhao Zhonghua and promoted him to the position vacated by Zhang Weiguo.
However, when the eldest brother first arrived, what he needed most was stability and a peaceful takeover of the Southeast Division. It didn't seem appropriate to promote his old friends on a large scale, so he didn't promise anything, he just understood.
After talking for half an hour, my senior brother suddenly asked me if I knew a person named Wu Linyi?
I said I knew him, and he asked me if I knew him very well. I said it was okay. I had met Wu Linyi once when I was at home, and we talked on the phone several times later. But it was hard to say how familiar I was.
, the relationship is pretty normal, what’s wrong?
The senior brother didn't answer, but took a folder from Dong Zhongming and said you should take a look at this first.
I took it, opened the blue-encapsulated document, opened the first page, and saw two photos. The first one was of several tangerines hanging on a fruit tree, green, jerky and scattered, nothing unusual;
The second photo shows a ripe yellow citrus, neatly cut in half. However, the problem arises in the second photo. Inside the citrus pulp that has been cut in half, there are more than 20 pieces of citrus attached to it.
The tiny maggots are rolling around. At first sight, they are so densely packed that one immediately gets goosebumps and a sudden chill.
I continued to scroll down. This is an investigation report. It said that since the autumn of this year, large-scale citrus maggot incidents have broken out in Nangon, Yibing, Dazhou and Chongqing in Xichuan. Many farmers have picked citrus maggots.
After peeling open the fruit-bearing citrus, it was found that the pulp inside ranged from dozens to hundreds to as few as three to five. There were many semi-special parasitic fly maggots inside, which could not be eaten normally by humans.
Farmers and companies have been busy for a year, but what they harvested are these citrus fruits that have no economic value at all. Economically, they naturally suffer heavy losses. Although the protein content of the maggots is as high as 60% and can be used as high-protein feed, it is difficult to separate and collect them.
It’s not easy and it’s not effective at all.
When I saw it halfway, I frowned, raised my head, and said there was something wrong here.
The senior brother nodded and said yes, it is a big problem. This is because someone has tampered with it and spread a very special pest, causing the disease to spread over a large area. Of course, this is not the most important thing. We have already
We have received some cases of accidentally eating sick oranges. Some people who have eaten sick oranges have shown signs of memory loss and loss of consciousness. Some people have eaten too much and have become idiots. Statistics and research show that the onset of this disease is
The rate has reached 11.8%, which means that one out of every ten people will be affected by the disease.
I quickly turned to the back and saw the cases one after another. I was so frightened that I couldn't help but exclaimed: "Gene weapons?"
The senior brother said in a deep voice: "Yes, that's what I mean. Although there is no evidence to prove it, those who do our job must have professional sensitivity. The current problem is not about economic benefits, but about social public health safety. Although
Most of the diseased areas have been brought under control, but there is news that some farmers and companies have secretly sold these diseased oranges in order to make money..."
The shopkeeper was listening and was a little surprised, saying, why would anyone want these diseased oranges with worms?
Dong Zhongming explained that no one would eat sick oranges with their skins on, but if they were kneaded into juice and became turbid, there would be no need to worry too much. The shopkeeper nodded, and then asked his senior brother, Boss Chen,
This matter happened in Xichuan and Yucheng, so it was naturally the responsibility of the Southwest Bureau, which was full of talents. This matter is big or small, in front of the experts of the Southwest Bureau, is this a big deal?
The senior brother shook his head and said that you have forgotten that when Lu Zuo was training in Nujiang, the ghost-faced robe brother would go up to the big brother Zhang Dayong, the white paper fan Luo Qingyu, the big worshiper Liu Yu, and down to the key elites, clear out the nest and ambush me.
The Religious Affairs Bureau and the reserve talents from various places in the religious world have resulted in heavy casualties. The strongest of the Evil Spirit Cult, Honglu, is Zhang Dayong. People like Zhang Dayong who are determined to retaliate will inevitably not rise up to cause trouble and retaliate against society, and
The impact of this incident was extremely serious, and the superiors attached great importance to it, so a task force was formed to devote all efforts to deal with this incident.
I was a little confused. Senior brother, you came here specifically to see me today. Could this matter have anything to do with me?
The senior brother nodded and said that Wu Linyi is a relatively talkative person in the Southwest Bureau. He reported to the headquarters and wanted to second you to the task force. But you are only a peripheral member of our department, so I
I came here specifically to ask for your opinion.
Zhao Zhonghua was a little anxious and said to Boss Chen, the southwest is now Zhao Chengfeng's territory. They caused trouble themselves, so let them wipe their own asses. Why did they bring Lu Zuo, who was seriously injured and had not recovered, to add political achievements to others?
The elder brother narrowed his eyes and glared at the shopkeeper. He was silent for a while and said, Zhonghua, your vision is still a little narrow after all. No matter how we fight internally, we must compromise in the face of the interests of the people. This is
The principles and main tone of our work. In the past, Lu Zuo was doing it for the farmers who were harmed and the countless people who might be harmed. It was a great merit. How could he use internal differences as a reason to refuse?
The shopkeeper was criticized by the senior brother and lowered his head, convinced. The senior brother turned to look at me and said, Lu Zuo, your body has not recovered yet, so I need to ask for your opinion. What do you think? I don't
Without thinking too much, he nodded and said yes. I was thinking of going to Xichuan to eat spicy hotpot. When will I leave?
The senior brother laughed and said the sooner the better. If it happens the day after tomorrow, we will have a special plane to go there.
