After Chu Heng and Wen Yuan left, Liu Yiping looked at Qiao Liang eagerly: "Go back to your hometown to see your parents. Are you going back to the county town at night?"
"No, go back to Jiangzhou directly." Qiao Liang said simply.
"It's a big weekend, why are you in such a hurry to go back?" Liu Yiping was unwilling to give in.
Qiao Liangpi smiled and said, "If I don't give you a hard time, you won't give up, right?"
"Huh, damn you, don't you think so?" Liu Yiping gave him a wink.
"It doesn't matter whether I think about it or not, but as a county leader, your reputation is the most important. I am doing this for your own good. I have to be responsible for the high image of the leader."
Liu Yiping curled her lips and said, "Huh, making excuses, are you being fed by that person at home?"
When Qiao Liang heard Liu Yiping mention Zhang Mei, she felt nauseated, but she still smiled and said, "Whatever you think."
"Bah——" Liu Yiping spat, and then walked away disappointed.
Watching Liu Yiping leave the guest house, Qiao Liang then went to the opposite hotel, met Li Youwei, and went straight to the living base in Dashanli.
Fang Xiaoya didn't go and stayed at the hotel waiting for news about them.
"Liang Zi, have you informed Shen Tao?" Li Youwei asked Qiao Liang on the way.
Qiao Liang nodded: "I told him last night. He was very excited when he heard that you were going."
Li Youwei smiled: "Where are the others at the base?"
"I asked Shen Tao to give them a holiday. It's just the three of them."
Li Youwei nodded with satisfaction and continued: "What's the reason why you don't go back to Jiangzhou with Chu Heng today?"
"I said I would go back to my hometown to see my parents."
"Do you think Chu Heng will believe it?"
"Boss, what do you mean..."
"When I came out to exercise this morning, I happened to see Chu Heng coming out of the guest house for morning exercise. When he saw me, he immediately ducked away, thinking that I didn't see him."
"Oh, so Chu Heng knows that you stayed in Sanjiang last night."
"Yes." Li Youwei nodded, "If you don't go back to Jiangzhou with him, he might suspect that you are with me today."
Qiao Liang thought about what happened last night and thought for a while: "It's okay even if he is suspicious. At most, he will think that I don't want him to know because I am worried that it will affect your relationship. It's like he already knew that he was my matchmaker. , it’s like I’ve been hiding it from you.”
"Does Chu Heng think you have always trusted him?"
"Yes, so far, he has no doubts about it."
Li Youwei nodded and fell into deep thought.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, the car arrived at the living base. When we were still more than 100 meters away from the gate, we saw three people standing at the door, looking forward to it.
It was Shen Tao and the others.
Li Youwei asked the driver to stop the car and said to Qiao Liang: "Let's walk over."
Qiao Liang nodded and got out of the car with Li Youwei. Li Youwei strode towards Shen Tao and the others.
Qiao Liang walked behind Li Youwei. His back was steady but his steps were a little hasty. It was obvious that Li Youwei was excited at this time.
Seeing Li Youwei approaching, Shen Tao and others rushed to greet him.
Li Youwei stretched out his hand from far away——
"Secretary Li..." Shen Tao and the others rushed up to shake hands with Li Youwei. They all looked excited and their voices were choked with sobs.
Seeing his former subordinates trapped in this desolate mountain, Li Youwei had mixed feelings and his eyes became moist.
After sighing for a while, everyone calmed down and looked at Li Youwei and the old leader with bright eyes.
Li Youwei tried his best to stay calm and smiled at everyone: "Let's go in and take a look."
Everyone entered the living base. Li Youwei was very familiar with the place. He didn't need their guidance and just walked on his own. Everyone followed him.
After a long time, Li Youwei walked to the pig farm, stood and stared for a long time, then turned to look at Qiao Liang: "You were working here back then, right?"
Qiao Liang nodded.
Li Youwei looked into the distance with a heavy gaze, was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "I didn't expect that the living base and pig farm I founded myself would become a place for you to be sent to labor camps. Isn't this very sad and ridiculous? It's very What about funny?”
Everyone was silent.
Li Youwei added: "Maybe this is reincarnation. Before you, Si Shengjie and the others were sent here by me, weren't they? It was Si Shengjie before, and now it's your turn. Is this the retribution I left for you?" Woolen cloth?"
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Li Youwei sighed: "Let's go to the office and have a chat."
"Secretary Li, the office is too cold, so you should go to our dormitory. I made the kang very hot early in the morning," Shen Tao said.
"Okay, let's sit on the hot kang, drink tea and chat."
Everyone went to the dormitory, and felt the warm air as soon as they entered the door. There was a large kang that was clean and tidy, with a square table on top and tea sets on the table.
Everyone sat cross-legged on the hot kang. Although it was freezing outside, it was warm inside.
"Secretary Li, let's have some tea, and we'll have a whole sheep for lunch." Shen Tao said, "We were so excited when we heard that you were coming. We got up early in the morning and killed a sheep. We were waiting for you to eat it. Woolen cloth."
Li Youwei smiled: "Those of you who are good at business management can now grow vegetables, raise pigs and kill sheep. You have become a generalist."
Shen Tao and the others laughed, a little bitterly.
Li Youwei took a few sips of tea, put down the cup and said: "I was in Sanjiang last night and heard Qiao Liang tell you about your situation. I came to see you today. I know that you are suffering here because of my involvement. ah."
As he spoke, Li Youwei sighed with deep guilt in his expression.
Shen Tao and the others looked at each other, and then Shen Tao said: "Secretary Li, don't say that. Just like Director Qiao, we were cultivated by you. Today we have reached this stage, and we may not necessarily have suffered. Your involvement is voluntary on our part."
"How do you say this?" Li Youwei looked at them.
Shen Tao said: "After your accident, Mr. Wen took charge of the newspaper office and talked to the old subordinates you cultivated one by one. He said that as long as we repented and showed loyalty to him, he could forget the past and we could continue to work in our original positions. Keep doing it.
Under Mr. Wen's hard and soft tactics, some people compromised, such as Guo Qiang, director of the Finance Center, who has now surrendered to Mr. Wen wholeheartedly. But the three of us refused to give up our bottom line and principles, neither repenting nor repenting. Show your loyalty to Mr. Wen. Mr. Wen eventually became popular, so we were assigned here."
Qiao Liang secretly appreciated that Li Youwei did not train them in vain, it was interesting.
Li Youwei nodded: "I'm touched by your actions. Thank you for your sincerity towards me, Li Youwei. However, Guo Qiang's actions are understandable. Knowing that his arms can't resist his thighs, he did the most harmful thing to himself. It was a favorable choice, but it was also a conscious move, and I have no intention of blaming him. I came here today for another reason besides seeing you..."
Having said this, Li Youwei stopped and picked up his tea cup to drink water.
Shen Tao and the others looked at Li Youwei.
Li Youwei put down the tea cup and continued: "You must know that I am now the president of Chint Group. I can start a new life in Chint Group. First, I want to thank Qiao Liang for the matchmaking. Second, I want to thank Chairman Fang of Chint Group for his favor. And Fang The chairman and Qiao Liang are college classmates."
