~10 min read 1,882 words

Next, Yin Mingsheng went to the resettlement point to check the resettlement situation, as well as food and drink. He originally wanted to find some trouble. But after looking, the idea of wanting to find trouble was immediately extinguished.

In the morning, it was instant noodles and ham sausages, and at noon and night, it was six stir-fried dishes and two soups, four of which were meat dishes and two were green vegetables.

Especially the braised pork and beef stewed with potatoes, which were oily, and he was greedy when he saw them.

Not to mention these villagers, even their provincial party committee's small cafeteria couldn't eat so well every day.

"Old man!" Yin Mingsheng came to an old man with a full smile: "Are you used to the food provided by the government?"

The old man glanced at Yin Mingsheng: "This is provided by Yugong Group, Boss Zhou, not provided by the government."

Yin Mingsheng was a bit embarrassed by the old man, and the young man beside him immediately said.

"Old man, you are wrong. Zhou Andong is also under the leadership of our party. Isn't the food he provides equal to that provided by the government?"

"You officials speak, really one is more shameless than the other." The old man spat, and a mouthful of phlegm spat on the ground: "Young man, don't think that I, an old man, have farmed for a lifetime and don't know how to be deceived.

What kind of difference is there between you saying this kind of thing and those treacherous officials in ancient times who killed the good and claimed credit? You compete with the people for profit, compete with the people for credit, and treat the common people as fools to deceive. The country has officials like you, it's not good."

The faces of the people from the province changed again. This old thing was too unappreciative, even more hateful than Zhou Andong.

Yin Mingsheng smiled awkwardly: "It's my lack of understanding of the situation, sorry, old man."

The old man sneered, took out a plastic bag from his pocket, which contained dry tobacco leaves.

Then he started to roll cigarettes and no longer paid attention to Yin Mingsheng and the others.

Chen Wenqi and the leaders from the city, including Lian Zhongyu who had been accompanying him and didn't dare to interrupt, had very wonderful expressions on their faces.

Yin Mingsheng was in no mood to stay here, and gave his secretary a look.

The secretary immediately understood: "Secretary, the General Office just called a pager, there is something important that needs you to go back and deal with."

"Is that so?" Yin Mingsheng's face immediately became serious: "We will go to Jinli County immediately. Call and ask what the situation is. If I need to go back and deal with it immediately, I can only wait for the next opportunity to see Comrade Zhou Andong."

As a frontier official, if he really went to the Jinli County Guesthouse to see Zhou Andong at night, he would invisibly raise Zhou Andong's prestige, and conversely, his prestige would be lowered. How could he do such a thing?

Therefore, he spoke beautifully, saying he was going to the Jinli County Guesthouse to see Zhou Andong, but he had already thought of an excuse, thinking about returning to the province after eating dinner at the resettlement point.

As for the unappreciative Zhou Andong, he would clean him up after he stood firm.

Yin Mingsheng left. Chen Wenqi watched the motorcade disappear from his sight and suddenly laughed.

"Too interesting."

Lian Zhongyu also followed with a smile: "Especially the old man's words, they were really powerful. At that time, I almost laughed out loud, fortunately I held it back."

In the evening, Zhou Andong ate at the resettlement point. Chen Wenqi told him about the matter, and he laughed so happily that it took a long time to stop.

For the next two days, Zhou Andong was on the front line of flood control, until noon on the third day, a thunderous cheer came from the front line of flood control, the breach was blocked, and they won.

Zhou Andong and Yao Jun jumped with the crowd, shouting and laughing, but their eyes were moist.

In this era, there was no mechanization. Blocking the breach was all up to people. Four days and three nights were really not easy.

July 19, 1994, the eleventh day of the sixth lunar month, Tuesday!

Zhou Andong and the others returned to the city. From afar, they saw that the group's gate was full of people, one by one, holding colorful flags in their hands, and there was a banner hanging on the gate, which read: Welcome the flood control heroes home!

When their car arrived at the gate, suona, drums, and cheers sounded at the same time. It was really red flags fluttering, gongs and drums, even a thick-skinned person like Zhou Andong felt a little hot.

Wu Huilin and the group's directors and all leaders stood at the gate to welcome them. Zhou Andong looked at them and said with a wry smile.

"It's too much, it's too much, look at the onlookers, they don't necessarily know how to laugh at us."

Old Man Man said seriously: "Chairman, you personally carried sandbags to fight the flood on the front line, we all saw it in the news, who dares to laugh at you?"

"No!"

Gu Bing finally recovered a bit these days, but the muscles on his body were still a little painful. Now that he heard that Zhou Andong was on the news, and he also carried sandbags to fight the flood on the front line, there wasn't a single shot in the news? Wasn't that carrying for nothing?

"The Chairman carried sandbags to fight the flood and was on the news, did I carry sandbags and not get on?"

"You got on!"

The one who spoke was Wu Huilin. The night before last, she saw the footage of Gu Bing carrying sandbags to fight the flood in the group TV station's news.

She was so excited at the time. She really didn't expect that Gu Bing had such a masculine side. She was so proud in her heart, and then she called the TV station and asked for the tape of Gu Bing fighting the flood, and watched it several times in a row.

Just last night, something that surprised her happened again. The news of Zhou Andong, Gu Bing, and Yao Jun fighting the flood on the front line appeared not only on the city TV station but also on the provincial TV station.

And the provincial station gave a full three minutes, specifically reporting on Zhou Andong, Gu Bing, and Yao Jun fighting the flood on the front line, and the contributions made by the entire Yugong Group.

"Go, go, go, the cafeteria has already prepared food, just waiting to hold a reception for you."

Qian Zhen greeted everyone and entered the gate together. At this time, the song came from the group's broadcast loudspeaker.

Mud covers the trouser legs, sweat soaks the back of the clothes.

I don't know who you are, but I know who you are for.

For whom, for the harvest of autumn, for the return of the wild geese in spring.

Full of hot blood singing youth without regrets, looking at the end of the world not knowing when the comrades will return...

Hearing the song, Zhou Andong asked: "When did this song come out?"

"The day before yesterday, CCTV broadcasted it. In just one day, the whole street in Jiangzhou was playing this song."

Wu Huilin said, and then looked at Zhou Andong, asking curiously.

"This song, was it really written by you on the front line of flood control in less than ten minutes?"

Zhou Andong was also strange: "How do you know?"

"How do I know." Wu Huilin said with a smile: "Before this song came out, our group's news broadcasted the footage of you creating this song at the flood control site, and the lyrics were very clear.

It's just that everyone didn't pay special attention at first, but after this song came out, everyone realized that the chairman wrote such a good song, plus the MV of soldiers fighting the flood and disaster relief, it was really touching, and I was moved to tears.

Let's put it this way, not only our group, I guess more than half of the people in Jiangzhou know that this song was written by you, the chairman, and it was written in less than ten minutes at the flood control site."

Du Chunlai said with a smile: "Our chairman's talent is known to the whole country, and now another item has been exposed, he can even write songs."

Just when they were discussing this matter, Cheng Zhanjun was in Qiao Zheng'an's office, holding a teacup in his hand.

"I didn't expect that Zhou Andong could even write songs, and it was written in less than ten minutes on the front line of flood control."

Qiao Zheng'an leaned against the back of the chair and smoked: "This time Jiangzhou flooded, Yugong Group and Zhou Andong made huge contributions, and a series of reports should be made on Yugong Group and Zhou Andong."

"Okay!" Cheng Zhanjun said with a smile: "Brush the gold powder on Zhou Andong and Yugong Group thicker, so that when Yin Mingsheng wants to move, he has to think carefully."

Qiao Zheng'an stood up and came to the window to look at the scenery outside: "He Yin Mingsheng went to Jiangzhou to brush a wave of favor, the Lingchuan River breach has been blocked, and then it is reconstruction, you can go down and walk around.

After all, you walked up from Jiangzhou and are the old secretary of Jiangzhou. You should have gone down at the first time when the flood broke out. But your appointment has come, so you can only take office first.

But I didn't expect that this gave Yin Mingsheng a loophole to drill. Now, reconstruction work is about to start, it's not too late for you to go down and see, and compared to Yugong Yin Mingsheng, the common people of Jiangzhou will welcome you more."

Cheng Zhanjun nodded: "Since I came to Fengjing, I have never gone back. Even if Jiangzhou didn't flood, I would find time to go back and see."

Qiao Zheng'an gritted his teeth and said: "When you see Zhou Andong, ask him for me!"

Cheng Zhanjun laughed: "He doesn't know the relationship between you and me. If he knew, it would be impossible to calculate on your head."

"Humph!" Qiao Zheng'an snorted: "That guy's courage is very big. Even if he knew our relationship, this time he didn't calculate on me, I don't know when he will dig a hole for me again.

Haven't you heard? Yin Mingsheng went down and wanted to see him but was snubbed."

"I heard!" Cheng Zhanjun couldn't help but laugh again: "It is said that Yin Mingsheng not only was snubbed by Zhou Andong, but at the resettlement point, he wanted to erase Zhou Andong's credit, but was scolded by an old farmer." ===== CHAPTER 2168 =====
