Chapter 2983 Let Me See Your Efforts
Education Bureau.
After arriving at the office, Ran Qiuye immediately began processing documents at her desk.
Feng Nan was reviewing the documents, while Cui Ping was still running errands outside.
However, Feng Nan glanced at Ran Qiuye and felt that the other party's expression was somewhat different today.
He looked better, and his face was rosier.
As a woman herself, Feng Nan naturally understood why.
Flowers always need watering.
But thinking about my own partner, I wish I could live in the office. Oh, right, I already live in the office now.
Their home is more like a hotel; they only go home to visit a few days a month.
Moreover, she also needs to be somewhat reserved.
Suddenly, I felt a little resentful towards my husband.
Achoo!
Inside the Ninth Department, Zhao Gang was reviewing the survey team's expense reports when he suddenly started sneezing uncontrollably.
Then he glanced at the family photo on the table, a smile appearing on his lips, before burying himself back in the documents.
Feng Nan was unaware that her husband was sneezing, but she herself was sneezing incessantly.
It might be a bit cold inside.
This office, which was originally a storeroom, has no heating and the windows are drafty. How can we work here in winter?
"Sister Nan, please take care of yourself and don't catch a cold."
Ran Qiuye, standing to the side, expressed her concern, saying that she herself did not feel cold.
Or rather, over the years, the Yang family members, both adults and children, have all been in good physical condition and have never caught a cold in winter.
Hearing Ran Qiuye's concern, Feng Nan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's just a sneeze."
"You still need to take care of your health. I heard the flu has started again a few days ago. I don't know why, but there have been so many flu cases in recent years."
Ran Qiuye expressed her concern, and Feng Nan nodded, "That's right, quite a few children at school have caught colds, and the teachers won't let them go."
"Yes, speaking of which, have the heating subsidies for rural schools been distributed yet?"
"It's almost November, and it's getting cold. We can't let the children get cold."
Feng Nan shook her head. "The finance department is still working on it; the process hasn't been completed yet."
"Furthermore, I've also heard..."
"What did you hear?"
Ran Qiuye asked curiously.
Feng Nan whispered, "I heard that our bureau doesn't seem to have that much money."
"No money?"
Ran Qiuye asked in surprise, and Feng Nan nodded, "I also heard it by chance from Director Huang."
"She's a big mouth; she can't keep anything to herself."
"It seems that the bureau has allocated some funds to renovate the office buildings for university teachers."
boom!
"Really?"
Ran Qiuye slammed her hand on the table with such force that it startled Feng Nan.
"That's what she said in private anyway."
"Oh, and I should mention that this matter was approved by higher authorities."
Ran Qiuye remained silent with a cold expression.
Seeing this, Feng Nan quickly stepped forward to advise, "Qiu Ye, now is not the time!"
"Once we separate, we'll just focus on managing our own businesses. Don't worry about the rest!"
Feng Nan tried to persuade her, and Ran Qiuye took a deep breath. After her chest heaved for a while, she calmed down and said, "I understand."
That's what they said, but in their hearts they were determined that rural education must not follow the old path.
"Qiuye, Nannan, hurry, look who's here."
Suddenly, Cuiping's voice came from the doorway, and then Cuiping ran in from outside.
"Hurry up, Qiuye, your man is here."
"Haha, the man surnamed Chen has led his men out to greet us."
"Qiuye, are you telling me there's going to be a good show?"
Feng Nan also looked at Ran Qiuye. They had just finished talking about it yesterday, and Yang Xiaotao came today. Thinking of Ran Qiuye's beautiful appearance, she immediately imagined what had happened last night.
Seeing the two of them looking at her like that, Ran Qiuye's ears turned red instantly, and her face became even hotter.
The two looked at Ran Qiuye again, which further solidified their judgment.
So, amidst their teasing smiles, Ran Qiuye stepped forward and tickled them.
Despite Cui Ping's considerable skills, Ran Qiuye is still stronger.
"Stop scratching, let's go take a look, maybe we'll see a good show."
Cuiping begged for mercy, and then made a suggestion.
Unexpectedly, Ran Qiuye stopped what she was doing, then tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, "You guys go ahead, I won't go."
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance, and in the end, Cuiping, who loved watching the excitement, went alone, leaving the two of them sitting in the office.
But at this point, I had no mind for work; I was already preoccupied with what was happening outside.
At the gate.
As Yang Xiaotao got out of the car, Secretary Chen immediately led several directors to greet him.
"Minister Yang, welcome to our office for guidance."
Secretary Chen spoke with a smile, appearing very friendly.
Yang Xiaotao also smiled and said with equal enthusiasm, "Secretary Chen, I have important business to attend to today, sorry to bother you."
"Haha, it's an honor to have you here. Please come in."
Secretary Chen quickly stepped aside to let Yang Xiaotao in.
But Yang Xiaotao waved his hand, showing no intention of going in.
He had someone inquire about this Secretary Chen in front of him.
In short, we're not on the same wavelength.
Besides, he knew all about his own wife's situation.
How could I possibly give them a friendly look?
Seeing that Yang Xiaotao did not enter the door, Secretary Chen's expression changed, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
The directors behind him also had cold faces.
But Yang Xiaotao wasn't having any of it. He said directly at the door, "Secretary Chen, everyone is busy, so I won't go in."
"I came here today just to ask one question: have all one thousand people who promised to come have arrived?"
After speaking, Yang Xiaotao stood aside with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent.
Secretary Chen gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Because I really don't know how to say it.
"What, Secretary Chen, is this how you do things?"
"Or are you saying you can't even handle this matter?"
Yang Xiaotao's voice suddenly turned icy, and his gaze swept over everyone present. "There are so many universities across the country, don't tell me you can't even recruit a thousand people."
"If that's the case, then you people are all utterly useless."
That's utterly useless.
waste.
Say who?
He was referring to everyone present.
Lou Xiao'e, standing behind Yang Xiaotao, was deeply moved, her beautiful eyes filled with admiration.
On the other hand, Secretary Chen and the others felt a burning pain on their faces.
This is a real slap in the face, especially since it happened right in front of my own home. I've truly lost all face and dignity.
"Minister Yang, it's not that we can't find people, it's just that we're selecting the right people, which is why it's taken so long."
"But rest assured, we have found a solution and it will not delay the progress of the project in any way."
Secretary Chen, after all, had seen many storms and many people. As the saying goes, old age makes one wise, and he could endure what ordinary people could not.
Even though Yang Xiaotao was proven wrong, he still put on a smiling face and spoke eloquently.
But Yang Xiaotao didn't come here this time to "mediately smooth things over".
If Sun Guodu understands something, how could he not understand it?
The so-called "playing it safe" is just a disguised form of compromise.
Compromise will only embolden the other party.
Therefore, Yang Xiaotao's best way to deal with these people is to use brute force. No matter how eloquently you speak or how powerful your arguments are, it won't work.
"is it?"
Yang Xiaotao suddenly laughed and said, "Then I'd like to hear what efforts you've made."
As soon as he finished speaking, Secretary Chen's face stiffened.
He was cursing Yang Xiaotao in his heart. These were just polite words, how could he have taken them seriously?
The atmosphere fell silent again, and those around dared not even breathe.
Lou Xiao'e stood aside. If she could, her biggest regret right now was not bringing a camera, otherwise she would definitely have recorded this scene.
However, even if Lou Xiao'e didn't bring a camera, the news would spread quickly.
You have to understand, this is right at the main gate; there's no way to cover it up!
"Secretary Chen!"
Seeing that the other party remained silent, Yang Xiaotao spoke again, "I'm not trying to make things difficult for you." "The natural gas project is urgent right now. Our surveyors have been in the desert for more than a month, walking a distance of 300 miles."
"The goal is to find a gas field as soon as possible so that the project can start as soon as possible."
"But now, because of the lack of personnel and the lack of enough surveyors, we cannot start construction."
"And our man, an old man who is almost seventy, is running around in the desert. They are working hard and struggling."
"You guys?"
"Secretary Chen Chang'an, please tell me, where has your effort gone?"
An awkward silence fell; a gust of wind blew, and everyone felt a chill run through them.
Chen Chang'an stared intently at Yang Xiaotao, his face turning pale and then red, and his body seemed to be about to collapse.
"Comrade Chen Chang'an, I hope you will complete the mission as soon as possible."
"We hope to see your efforts."
"Don't keep us waiting too long."
After saying that, Yang Xiaotao turned around, got into his car, and left.
"I hope to see your efforts."
As the car started, Yang Xiaotao uttered a sentence before disappearing into the intersection with a roar.
"Secretary, Secretary!"
The next moment, the crowd behind him rushed forward and surrounded Secretary Chen.
"Secretary, this is too, too outrageous."
"Secretary, let's sue him! Let's sue him!"
Snapped
As Huang Hua was speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his cheek, and then he saw Secretary Chen's bloodshot eyes, which looked as if he wanted to devour someone.
"Whom should we sue?"
Secretary Chen's cold voice rang out, and Huang Hua covered his face, not daring to speak.
The people around them, who had been making a ruckus, now dared not speak loudly at all.
Secretary Chen swallowed his anger and looked coldly at everyone.
"If you're not ambitious enough, don't blame others for not being respectful."
"We told you to find the person, have you found them?"
"What people are saying is true: where is your effort?"
Instantly, the group lowered their heads.
Secretary Chen strode towards the office building, and the people behind him exchanged glances before following him inside.
But the next second, Secretary Chen's cold voice came through.
"Tomorrow, I want to see the results of your hard work."
Instantly, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
The car drove down the street, and the driver's face was full of excitement.
Lou Xiao'e, sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but laugh.
Only Yang Xiaotao sat in the passenger seat with his eyes closed, resting.
I'm sure what just happened will soon be known by others, but it doesn't matter.
Since he's here, he's not afraid of offending anyone.
In the past, we had to consider this and that, and we tried to be fair in everything we did.
I do this in the hope that others will treat them equally when they are dealing with them.
But the truth is often that if you meet your own requirements, everyone will be happy and laughing.
When it comes to making demands of others, you can't be fair to everyone, and in the end, you're the one who gets hurt.
The other party, however, can feel at ease and even criticize, treating me like a fool.
Now, Yang Xiaotao doesn't want to compromise himself anymore.
If you are patient for a moment, they will take advantage of you and want more.
Take a step back and you will be in trouble.
Why can't you hold the water level when I'm the one pouring it?
Since we can't treat everyone equally, let's pour out the water and smash the bowl while we're at it.
Let's see who gives up first.
"Minister Yang, we've arrived."
Lou Xiao'e's voice came from inside the car, and Yang Xiaotao opened his eyes and got out of the car.
"Minister Yang."
Guan Zhiyong led the steel plant workers forward.
"Director Guan."
Yang Xiaotao came up and shook hands, and the steel plant leaders next to him followed suit.
After everyone met, Yang Xiaotao glanced at the blast furnace in the distance and the painting in the sky that looked like it had been painted with a brush.
"Director Guan, is everything ready?"
"Minister Yang, we'll dedicate two workshops specifically to producing steel."
"Wire rod? That's the name you came up with."
Yang Xiaotao walked forward and casually asked.
Guan Zhiyong smiled at the people around him, "This is used for natural gas pipelines, so we call it wire steel, it's easy to pronounce."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Okay, then let's call it wire rod."
"However, the research on wire rod must continue. We must strive to fully understand, develop, and improve the technology. In the future, our needs will only increase, and your tasks will become even more important."
Guan Zhiyong immediately nodded, "We have already cooperated with the research institute, and follow-up research will follow."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, then walked quickly through the workshop.
Guan Zhiyong approached Yang Xiaotao and introduced them as they walked.
When the workers on the surrounding production line saw Yang Xiaotao, many of them smiled and greeted him.
"Old Li, are you still pushing the cart?"
Yang Xiaotao recognized a worker who was passing by at a glance.
This man was a site worker when he was working on the oxygen top-blown converter at the steel plant, but he was already quite old.
Yang Xiaotao came many times, and naturally his face became familiar.
"Hey, Director Yang, you're here again."
Old Li stopped his car and greeted Yang Xiaotao, showing no nervousness whatsoever.
"I said, you're not young anymore, why are you still here?"
Yang Xiaotao laughed, and Lao Li laughed along, "I have nothing to do at home anyway."
"Both of my sons work at the steel mill."
"My grandson is going to school, but no one is with him."
"What am I supposed to do at home all by myself? I don't know how to play chess or cards."
"I can also help push things around here and do some chores."
"Anyway, I've made up my mind. As long as Xiao Guan doesn't kick me out, I'll take this job."
As Old Li spoke, Guan Zhiyong, who was standing next to him, quickly shook his head, "Master Li, please don't say that. I didn't say I was kicking you out."
Old Li shook his head, "You, you."
He said with a hint of disappointment, "You're just easily swayed. This factory is so big, how much bigger is it than before?"
"You have to be tough when you need to be."
He shook his head and sighed, then said to Yang Xiaotao, "Director Yang, you're busy, I'll get busy too."
"go Go."
"Please be careful."
Old Li waved his hand and pushed the cart forward.
Yang Xiaotao turned around and saw the embarrassed look on Guan Zhiyong's face, then smiled and walked forward.
"Director Yang, am I... not quite suitable to be the factory director?"
After a long while, Guan Zhiyong walked up to him and said sadly.
Yang Xiaotao stopped and stared at the oxygen top-blown converter in the distance for a long time.
"Old Guan, do you remember when we built this furnace?"
Guan Zhiyong stepped forward to look, then nodded, "I remember."
"What about the boiler explosion back then?"
Guan Zhiyong nodded again, "I remember, it was because of that time that I became the factory director."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, then turned to look at Guan Zhiyong, "I won't comment on what Lao Li says."
"When it comes to verbal battles with others, no one can remain calm when it comes to their own."
"For example, if you turn around and kick him out of the steel mill, do you see if he'll rush into the office?"
"Then you can discuss with him whether you're assertive or not."
Guan Zhiyong shook his head with a smile, "That won't do. He's a senior craftsman. He was already in the factory before I arrived. I can't do that."
Yang Xiaotao smiled and nodded, then looked at the busy workshop in the distance.
After a long pause, he said, "So, you don't need to care what others think of you or what they say about you."
"All you have to do is get your own job done."
"Just let others feel your efforts."
