When the villagers who came to farm together arrived, Old Man An was pinned down in the field and drank a few sips of muddy water. Fortunately, there was no fertilizer in the field, but who could have imagined that the villagers gathered to stop this?
But these people were not afraid at all. Several of them took out their IDs, pointed at them and said, "What do you want to do? What do you want to do? We are from the Ministry of Agriculture. If you illegally plant crops, you will be sentenced."
There were only a dozen or so people from the neighborhood who came, originally crowding around to save Old Man An, but when they saw that the other party was using the Ministry of Agriculture sign, they suddenly felt a little less confident.
"If you put the person down first, it won't be illegal to hit him?" a company technician said quickly.
"Hitting someone? We are enforcing the law to prevent him from planting illegal crops, but he is openly resisting the law. You should stop everyone and pull out all the seedlings in the field, otherwise I will arrest you all."
The man with glasses said coldly.
But the villagers did not take any action. Oriental International contracted the land, and they would plant whatever they were asked to do. Now that Oriental International pays them wages, they must complete the task, let alone pull out the seedlings and plant them.
"The company asked us to grow this. If you have any problem, go to the company. If you come to us, you are bullying people. You are bullying people." Old Man An was pressed into the paddy field to regain his breath, and he immediately roared.
"Is it reasonable for you, an old guy, to openly resist the law?" As he said that, the fat man with glasses kicked him down again and held Old An down in the paddy field for ten seconds.
Old man An was old and his health was not in good condition. After being pressed down for ten seconds, he passed out immediately and lost all energy. When other villagers saw this scene, they were frightened.
, even the investigators from the Ministry of Agriculture frowned, but had no intention of rescuing him.
Seeing this, the company's technician hurriedly walked over and squatted on the ground to prepare for rescue, but was kicked to the ground by the fat man with glasses and said: "Who asked you to save him? Let them stop working quickly. Why?"
If you can't pull out the seedlings, I'll arrest you all."
The villagers were very angry, but they dared not speak out, but they did not move, and no one knew who shouted: "People are dead, government officials have beaten people to death, government officials have beaten people to death."
The man yelled and went further away, so people a few miles away heard it. Whether it was the company's agricultural technicians or the farmers who were planting rice, they all rushed here. Before they understood the situation,
, actually came to see the fun, but when they learned about the situation, they all glared at the investigators.
In an instant, hundreds of people gathered, some holding hoes and some holding sickles, with the momentum of a peasant uprising in a feudal society.
Several local investigators looked ugly, and the fat man with glasses was also frightened. After all, there were hundreds of people. They came here to conduct a secret investigation. They didn't expect that the people here were so tough, but he thought of himself.
It was an investigator sent by the Ministry of Agriculture, and I immediately became more confident.
"You unscrupulous people, do you want to rebel?" the man with glasses shouted.
He originally thought that these words could scare these villagers, but he did not expect that the villagers became more and more excited, and he did not know who shouted: "Beat him to death and let him pay for it with his life."
Then the situation got out of hand. On the day when the rice harvesting gate was opened, a bloody conflict broke out in the paddy fields that shocked farmers in Jiangnan Province and investigators from the Ministry of Agriculture. Eight investigators from the Ministry of Agriculture secretly came to Dongning City to investigate the planting of new crops.
Seven people were seriously injured and were still being treated in the hospital. Before they were out of danger, one was directly hit on the head with a hoe and died on the spot.
When Ye Menglong learned about this, her expression changed drastically. She didn't know when people from the Ministry of Agriculture ran into her fields, and she didn't know why they had conflicts with farmers, but she knew very well that this was a big deal.
It may jeopardize the entire Jiangnan Province plan of Oriental International Phase II.
"According to reports from subordinates, investigators from the Ministry of Agriculture visited in secret and had a conflict with villager An Jiashun in the paddy fields. The investigators from the Ministry of Agriculture were the first to take action. They asked An Jiashun to stop what he was doing, but An Jiashun did not
Stopped, eventually there was a conflict, what happened next,” Manager Niu reported.
Hearing this, Ye Menglong suddenly thought of something: "An Jiashun? This person doesn't have anything to do with Canglong, right?"
Manager Niu nodded: "It does matter. He has a granddaughter named An Qiuyue. She was the top scorer in the college entrance examination last year and is also a student in the pilot class. She is now studying at Peking University."
"She is Canglong's student!" Ye Menglong had black lines on his forehead. She was worried that if Canglong knew about this matter, it might not be a simple criminal case, and the one who was injured and killed was an investigator from the Ministry of Agriculture.
"By the way, didn't the planting of Zaodao No. 1 be reported to the Provincial Department of Agriculture?"
"No." Manager Niu shook his head, "And there is no need to report it at all, because Zaodao No. 1 belongs to the category of rice and can be grown in basic farmland protection areas. Unless it is a genetically modified crop, it needs to be reported to the Department of Agriculture for approval.
, but Zaodao No. 1 is not a genetically modified plant, so there is no need to report it, not to mention that during the research process, the institute should have coordinated with the relevant departments of Dongning City."
"Damn it, the Ministry of Agriculture must have thought Zaodao No. 1 was a genetically modified plant before sending people down to investigate, but why is there no news? The Provincial Department of Agriculture was not notified even!" Ye Menglong looked very bad, and she realized that there might be someone behind it.
Who is deliberately spreading rumors?
Just when she was about to go and deal with the matter, Secretary Yu came. She looked very unhappy. She sat down and said, "How could you cause such a big trouble at such a critical moment?"
"This is a villain." Ye Menglong said simply.
But at this moment, Secretary Yu said very seriously: "This matter cannot be covered up. It has become big news now. It is spread everywhere that Oriental International is arrogant and domineering and beats officials sent by the central government. This
The matter has spread all over the Internet. The Reform Office and the Ministry of Public Security will soon set up an investigation team. The Ministry of Agriculture will also send commissioners to investigate Early Rice No. 1. The Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee has received a notice asking you to stop planting early rice immediately.
No. 1, it is illegal to plant it without obtaining relevant approval."
"So serious!" Ye Menglong didn't expect that the matter would develop to such a serious place in an instant. It was like the sun was shining brightly one moment, and the sky was gloomy as if it was about to collapse yiyang the next moment.
"Where is Canglong? If such a big thing happened, where did the others go?" Secretary Yu asked, obviously she felt that Ye Menglong might not be able to handle this matter alone.
"He has been in the research institute recently. It is said that he has not left the house, and he doesn't know what he is doing. Logically speaking, the incident happened in Jiangkou Township, so he should be the first to know." Ye Menglong felt that something was a little weird.
If all the seedlings are not opened during the transplanting time, it will have a great impact on future growth. Moreover, the investigation now will take who knows how long. If they really get through all the relationships and solve this matter, it will probably be too long.
It will take a year and a half.
But in the past year and a half, Oriental International has not been cultivating anything, and how can it make profits to maintain profits? By then, no matter how rich the company is, it will collapse if it contracts so much land, and it may also bear a bad reputation.
, the most frightening thing is that all cultivated land in Jiangnan Province has been suspended, and we don’t know how huge the impact will be.
"It's still too late for ordinary seedlings to grow. Stop all planting of Zaodao No. 1 and replace all planting with ordinary seedlings immediately." Ye Menglong immediately thought of an idea and said to himself, if you don't let me plant Zaodao No. 1, then I can plant ordinary seedlings.
.
But Secretary Yu shook his head: "The meaning of the provincial party committee is very simple. All planting must be stopped until the incident is investigated. Who knows how damaging the emergence of Zaodao No. 1 will be to the environment? And according to the investigation, the ordinary rice of Zaodao No. 1
There is no difference, and who knows what exactly you are growing?"
Ye Menglong's face turned pale immediately. This whole thing was a trap. From the occurrence of the incident to the intensity of the publicity, there seemed to be a hand behind it. By the time Ye Menglong realized it, he had been restrained in every way. Now they are justified.
Can't tell.
"I went to Beijing to find Director Xu. I'm afraid he is the only one who can talk to me now." Ye Menglong said anxiously.
But Secretary Yu stopped him and said: "Do you think if you go to Director Xu now, he will help you? At least you are still working in the Reform Office. Although you are the president of Oriental International, you should be clear about your position. If you pass
If you speak too much for Canglong, Director Xu will only lower your trust in his eyes."
Hearing this, Ye Menglong sat back, like a deflated rubber ball. Even Manager Niu said: "Yes, Mr. Ye, coming forward to support Canglong now will only put Director Xu in a dilemma. Dongning City is related to the economy.
Reform, I think the central government may want to teach Canglong a lesson so that he can hand over more power for better control."
"I think it's more than that." Ye Menglong sneered, "There must be some interests involved here. Their purpose is to divide Oriental International. What's ridiculous is that Canglong thinks he can control everything, but in fact he gives it to others.
Make a wedding dress."
Both Secretary Yu and Manager Niu understood the meaning of Ye Menglong's words. The current resistance is not at all on the side of the central government, but on the side of the interest groups. The central government wants to reform state-owned enterprises, and the interest groups that control state-owned enterprises are naturally unwilling to give in. And in the reform, Oriental International
Inexplicably, he became the core of the reformists.
But in fact, the central government knows best that Canglong's Oriental International is not a reformist at all, and may become an uncontrollable interest group when it grows up.
As a result, there was a conflict between the existing interest faction and Cang Long, a reformist who was labeled for no reason. Under the impact of the two major forces, it was a contest of various means. No matter who succeeded in the end, it was the central government that benefited, because both parties would
If it is weakened, then there will naturally be no resistance to reform.
So now it is useless even if Ye Menglong goes to the Reform Office to find Director Xu. Perhaps Director Xu has seen everything clearly now, but he will never interfere. If Ye Menglong goes, it will only break her original balanced identity.
"I told Canglong a long time ago that to do big things, you have to give up something. Unfortunately, he didn't listen and insisted on controlling such a large company independently. Now everyone feels Weixie. Can Oriental International survive the crisis?
Then it depends on whether Lin Wanrou is willing to help." Secretary Yu suddenly said.
"Yes, Lin Wanrou!" Ye Menglong suddenly thought of the Iron Lady
