Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 285 Addressing your position at work is businesslike
Xu Ning said: "What do you think? There are also those who often sing the opposite. I don't know what's going on specifically, and I'm not from the forest farm. I just listen to my dad and my second uncle talking about these things, so I know a little bit about it."

Yang Yusheng turned around and asked, "When was Sandaohe Forest Farm rebuilt?"

Ma Li replied: "In 1975, Sandaohe Forestry Farm was next to Lanji Hydropower Station. At that time, Sandaohe Forestry Farm had a boiler room that self-supplied heat and power, and Lanji Hydropower Station supplied it to residents..."

There is nothing wrong with Yang Yusheng asking about these things, because the current forest farms are basic organizations. They also undertake the tasks of education, health, public security and social management. Some forest farms also take care of the countryside.

A large solitary pig weighing more than 600 kilograms stood on the left side of the entrance to the cafeteria, with two yellowed tusks pointing toward the sky. The presence of such a huge beast already made the people at the forest farm not surprised.

However, Yang Yusheng and Ma Li were a little surprised when they met for the first time. They walked up to the big solitary pig and looked at it carefully, staring intently at the bullet holes on the big solitary pig's head and body.

Guo Xingmin was already waiting at the door of the cafeteria. He walked over quickly and said with a smile: "Director Yang, this is the big pig that Erning and the others hunted. It weighs more than 600 kilograms!"

"It's quite big! Why is it standing here?"

Guo Xingmin said: "Such a heavy pig doesn't taste good. The meat is woody and has a fishy smell. It was harvested years ago. There is no good way to deal with it, so I just thought of leaving it here as a decoration."

Ma Ma smiled and said: "Director Guo, it's a good idea to use it as a decoration. I have seen many animal specimens in the provincial capital museum. There should be no pigs as big as this..."

Yang Yusheng nodded and said: "Let's leave it here for now and talk about it later."

"Hey! Director Yang, let's go inside and have dinner? There aren't many people eating in the forest farm today, so the master of the cafeteria simply prepared a few dishes."

Yang Yusheng said: "Just eat something simple. Isn't Deputy Secretary Zhang here?"

"I didn't inform him."

Yang Yusheng had said before that he didn't need too many people to know about his arrival, so Guo Xingmin didn't tell anyone else and just asked the canteen to prepare a few dishes.

Xu Ning smiled from behind and said, "I, Uncle Zhang, have gone to open a small stove somewhere nearby."

"Hey, why are you talking nonsense, kid?" Guo Xingmin cooed.

Yang Yusheng grinned, stepped forward and opened the quilt curtain and entered the large canteen. The interior was very empty because everyone from the forest farm had gone down to Lengchang.

Zhang Deyu stood at the door of the hut and said, "Bureau Yang, let's eat inside so we can calm down a bit."

"The guest does as the host does."

A few people sitting in the canteen looked up, then lowered their heads and continued to eat.

Xu Ning and Wang Hu followed them into the room, looked at the dishes on the table and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, are there just the six of us?"

"Well, what's wrong, you don't dare to move your chopsticks?"

"That's not possible."

Zhang Deyu said with a smile: "What I'm thinking about is, you went home a year ago and didn't stay for lunch at noon. Your aunt kept nagging me for two and a half days! Don't run away next time you go there."

"Hey, I know, I had something to do that day."

Guo Xingmin pushed a stool and asked Yang Yusheng to sit down, and then said, "Yes, I heard from your uncle that Taiping Xu Pao invited you to dinner. You have a lot of face."

"Then it must be necessary. Xu Pao lent me both the dog and the gun. He can't just let me take good care of the dog?"

"Haha, I'm out of breath again after praising you." Zhang Deyu said.

Yang Yusheng said with a smile: "This kid is not old, but he looks quite adventurous."

"Yes, Director Yang, most people don't know how to drive this Jeep 212." Ma Li answered.

Guo Xingmin glanced at Zhang Deyu and said, "Director Yang, you didn't bring a driver?"

Ma Li said with a smile: "Director Guo, that's what happened. Director Yang originally asked me to learn to drive, but I was a little confused while driving. Didn't I meet Brother Xu? I personally wanted to ask him to help me drive for two days. It just so happens that he is also familiar with the roads in the forest area.”

Zhang Deyu nodded: "Okay, Er Ning, if you have time, you can help Bureau Yang drive for two days."

Xu Ning lowered his head to pickle rice with pickled cabbage soup and sandwiched two fried peanuts without saying a word.

Guo Xingmin frowned and asked, "Er Ning?"

"Ah, Uncle Guo, I have something to do in the next few days..."

"What can happen to you?" Guo Xingmin was a little anxious, wondering why this child didn't put dirt on the wall.

Xu Ning swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "I'm thinking of going to the mountains to catch the bear that killed Li Shan."

"Hey! You, you are now..."

If Yang Yusheng was not at the table, Guo Xingmin would definitely bang the table.

At this time, Ma Li said: "Secretary Zhang, is there anyone available in the security department of our forest farm? Is there someone who can drive a Jeep 212?"

Zhang Deyu and Guo Xingmin were startled at the same time, and heard some meaning from his words.

"There are some who are free. They are on duty at the forest farm, but if we are looking for someone who can drive a jeep, there should be only one person left. He was a soldier in the army before and drove tanks and jeeps. He was the old Jiefang."

Is it possible that Guo Xingmin did what he did: "But this man and Er Ning are brothers. They are Xu Long, Accountant Xu's eldest son. Director Yang, do you think this man can do it?"

Yang Yusheng frowned and asked, "He is the only one in the entire forest farm who can drive a Jeep? He can drive it safely."

"Sure! Director Yang, I can't lie about this. He is the only one in the whole forest farm who can drive any car. It was last autumn, when Lao Yang, who drove the commuter train, was temporarily ill, and his apprentice sent him to the health center. After that, Xu Long leads the two-day shift in the security department."

Yang Yusheng was silent for a moment, and Zhang Deyu said with a smile: "Director Yang, let's eat more food, and we won't drink anymore today."

"Hey, don't drink. I have to go to Lengchang for a walk in the afternoon. That's it. I'll let Xu Long try driving a jeep later."

"Okay! Director Yang, try this pheasant stewed with hazel mushrooms. We picked the mushrooms ourselves at the forest farm. They have a decent taste."

Yang Yusheng nodded. During these days at Lao Xu's house, he ate nothing but pheasant and stewed mushrooms, basically not skipping a meal.

He asked Ma Li to eat more, and at four o'clock in the morning he drove from the city to Qing'an before dawn. The originally two-and-a-half-hour journey took four hours due to heavy snowfall and his nervousness. point.

Xu Ning raised his head and smiled: "Then we will go back later."

"Go back!... Director Yang, can you let them go home first?" Guo Xingmin asked.

Yang Yusheng nodded: "Okay, you go home and tell your family. Your eldest brother may have to go back to the city with me and wait until we find the driver in the city before letting him go back to Qing'an."

"it is good!"

Guo Xingmin seemed a little happy when he heard this. Although he had always thought about helping Xu Ning with work, it would be fine if he accidentally contributed to Xu Long's affairs, and it would not be considered as living up to the news sent by Lao Han.

As for whether Xu Long can make Yang Yusheng like him, he has no control over it. It depends on Xu Long's own performance.

No matter what, if you want to do something, you have to lean forward. Only when you lean closer will you have a chance.

Today's work is like a carrot and a pit. Only when carrots leave can there be carrots sitting in the pit.

After the meal, Xu Ning and Wang Hu looked at each other. When they were about to get up, Yang Yusheng got up first. He said bluntly to Zhang Deyu: "Secretary Zhang, you and Director Guo don't have to follow me when we go to Lengchang in the afternoon." , we can see it clearly by ourselves."

"Okay! I don't have to worry about Xu Long following me, but I have to equip him with a gun. There might be some animals popping up in our forest area, just in case."

Ma Ma smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Secretary Zhang."

"Don't be polite, I'm about to retire. I hope Director Yang can take more care of our Qing'an Forest Farm in the future." Yang Yusheng said with a smile: "Looking after us is out of the question, let's support each other and continue to develop."

"Haha, that's good, keep developing!"

Immediately, Guo Xingmin walked out of the cafeteria first and called Xiao Liu who was waiting at the door to go to the security department to summon Xu Long. When Yang Yusheng and others walked to Jeep 212, Xiao Liu and Xu Long ran over.

At first, Xu Long saw the taller Xu Ning at a glance. He was standing in a more conspicuous position. Wang Hu was behind him, with his back to Zhang Deyu and others, grinning at him.

Xu Long was a little puzzled. When he saw Yang Yusheng, he was slightly startled, but Xiao Liu next to him didn't move his lips and said, "That's the new Director Yang in our city."

"what…"

Xu Long suddenly understood. Following Xiao Liu, he ran up to a few people and heard Zhang Deyu say: "Dalong, this is our Bureau Yang. I have arranged a good thing for you today. You will be our driver for Bureau Yang."

Guo Xingmin came over and patted Xu Long's arm, "Don't you know how to drive a Jeep 212?"

"Yes! Hello, Director Yang."

Xu Long nodded hurriedly, stepped forward and stretched out his hand.

Yang Yusheng shook hands with him and said with a smile, "I'll trouble you then."

"No trouble……"

Ma Li said: "Squad Leader Xu, I am Ma Li, the secretary of Bureau Yang."

"Secretary Ma."

Yang Yusheng said: "Secretary Zhang and Field Director Guo, the three of us will leave first."

"Eh!"

Xu Long turned sideways and asked Xu Ning through lip language: "What's going on?"

Xu Ning shook his head and smiled, then turned around and said, "Then we will go directly to the transportation team to find a car and go down the mountain."

Zhang Deyu patted him on the shoulder, as if addressing his junior, and said, "Okay, you two go home directly. Why are you running up the mountain after it just snowed?"

Immediately, Yang Yusheng, Ma Li, and Xu Long boarded the jeep. Xu Long skillfully put the gear into gear and stepped on the accelerator. He quickly backed up the jeep and drove towards the forest farm gate.

Zhang Deyu and Guo Xingmin put down their shaking hands, looked at Xu Ning and asked, "Er Ning, what's going on?"

Xu Ning said with a smile: "Master Zhang, Director Yang didn't point it out, so I can't say anything. Anyway, if you have anything to do, just tell Director Yang. Even if you are wrong, it doesn't matter."

Guo Xingmin frowned and said, "Your father also knows?"

"He and my brother just found out."

"Ah, okay, I understand what you mean. There are people in the market now."

Xu Ning laughed twice: "Uncle Guo, we can't be too troublesome, we just have to do business."

"I know, okay, you two go down the mountain."

The two of them said hello to Zhang Deyu and Guo Xingmin, and then went to the transportation team to find a car. The two forest farm leaders returned to the office to chat about daily life and pondered the relationship between Yang Yusheng and the old Xu family.

Although Guo Xingmin wanted to ask Xu Chunlin about the specific relationship, Zhang Deyu persuaded him. Since Yang Yusheng didn't reveal it, they should do it honestly. There must be eyes that can see and notice them.

In fact, Yang Yusheng didn't want to hide it at all. He couldn't hide this kind of relationship thing even if he wanted to. People who are interested will know it sooner or later, but the taste and nature of what he said changed.

Besides, it was his first time dealing with Zhang Deyu and Guo Xingmin. Talking too much would be of no use, but would have the opposite effect...

Jeep 212 was driving on the winding mountain road. Xu Long drove the car seriously. Yang Yusheng, the co-driver, was rolling old dry cigarettes and writing vigorously to record and summarize the conversation between Yang Yusheng, Zhang Deyu and Guo Xingmin.

Yang Yusheng struck a match and lit a cigarette, exhaled the smoke, spit out the cigarette residue, looked at Xu Long and said: "Dalong, you can go back to the city with us tonight, and we will go to Sandaohe Forest Farm tomorrow."

"Ah, okay! Third Uncle Yang, I was shocked when I saw you just now. My heart is still pounding even now."

Yang Yusheng smiled and said: "Hahaha...what's the tutu? You can kiss and shout when there's no one around, but when there's someone around, just say your job title."

"Okay, Third Uncle. Did Erning and Huzi bring it to you this morning?"

"Well! Xiaoma is not very good at driving, and I can't use the city's driver..."

Xu Long understood something. To be a driver, you have to be close to someone. Yang Yusheng came from the provincial capital, so people in the city naturally didn't dare to use it.

"Uncle Third, do my dad and the others know?"

Yang Yusheng said: "I just arrived in Qing'an and had lunch when Erning noticed it. He mentioned it to your father. Your second uncle and Qiangzi didn't know yet."

"Ah, I understand."

The three of them walked around four campsites in the Qing'an forest area. When they got off the farm, Yang Yusheng didn't let Xu Long and Ma Li move, and only asked them to wait at the foot of the mountain. Yang Yusheng was hunched over, like a little old man. Sneaked into Lengchang.

He looked at the regular Lengchang, chatted with a few workers, and then walked around the large sheds where the workers lived. Basically, each greenhouse had two or three stoves, and the kang was boiling hot. , although the conditions are very difficult, they are much better than before.

At about four o'clock, Xu Long drove a jeep and took Yang Yusheng and Ma Li to the city. He was not worried that his family would miss them, because Xu Ning would definitely tell his mother and his sister-in-law when he got home.

In Lao Xu's house, only Liu Lizhen and Wang Shujuan were in the house. Because several families spent the Chinese New Year at Lao Xu's house, the family had accumulated a lot of work. After Xu Laowen and others went to work in the forest farm, they had to work at home.

Xu Ning briefly explained what happened at the forest farm. Liu Lizhen and Wang Shujuan were slightly stunned and looked at each other for a few seconds.

"Your third uncle is the new second-in-command in our city? Oh my god, no wonder he is so educated!"

Although my mother was secretly surprised, she didn't get too entangled in the matter. Her idea was that the visitor was a guest and as long as the family was harmonious.

"Then your eldest brother can't come back tonight?"

Xu Ning nodded: "I will definitely not come back. My third uncle said that I have to go to another forest area for a wander. Then Brother Ma can't drive..."

"Well, what about the future? Your brother will drive for your third uncle and not go back to the forest farm?"

Xu Ning said with a smile: "Who knows? Wouldn't it be better if my brother could be transferred to the city? Mom, don't think about it then. The city is also very close to our home. Don't think about going to the city." Won’t come back.”

Liu Lizhen waved her hand: "I don't care, what about your sister-in-law?"

"Don't think so much now. You will say whatever you want when the time comes."

Wang Shujuan asked: "Does Brother Qiang and Sister-in-law also know?"

"They don't know yet. Let's talk about it when they come back in the evening. Third uncle also knows that he can't hide this matter. He didn't tell me first because of discipline. Didn't third uncle tell mom about it?"

Liu Lizhen nodded: "You told me. I was confused at the time, but I figured it out now."

Xu Ning turned around and went to the west room and asked, "What did Feng'er do?"

Wang Shujuan said: "I went to play with Jin Yu. What do you want to eat tonight?"

"For something light, just steam a chicken cake."

Liu Lizhen curled her lips and said, "I look at you like a chicken cake."
