Chapter 38: Blind Date

~11 min read 2,035 words

After Lu Fan and Wang Yewei went out, the director and his wife whispered.

"Old Guo, I feel that Xiao Fan is a good child, tall and energetic, looking very honest."

"He has a good understanding. He will definitely not be bad in the future. Otherwise, could I agree to introduce him to Xiao Wei?"

"It's just that work is at the grassroots level, which is a trouble in the future."

"Hair is long and knowledge is short. I tell you, look at men with a long-term vision. What's wrong with the grassroots? Maybe he will be deputy section level in two years. Is the forest farm director not as good as an ordinary cadre in the county? I also worked in the forest farm, didn't I become a director?"

"Also, but I heard you say that his family situation is poor? Parents are gone? And a sister in school?"

"This should be viewed dialectically, with advantages and disadvantages. At least don't worry about the mother-in-law relationship. Still the same sentence, men look at the future. Let them get in touch first. Marriage depends on fate. Maybe they will be yellow if they don't look right."

"Okay, let it be!"

After Lu Fan and Wang Yewei went downstairs, they walked aimlessly by the river opposite.

Not knowing how to speak, and afraid of being bumped into, Lu Fan looked cautious, which made Wang Yewei a little funny.

"Lu Fan, do you have a girlfriend?"

"Ah? No."

Then the two rookies had nothing to say again, and they could feel the embarrassment between each other.

What a wooden head! Wang Yewei really couldn't stand it and took the initiative to say: "Lu Fan, do you know? You are very famous among the people assigned last year."

"Famous? I don't seem to know anyone, and I was assigned to the most remote corner."

"Yes, it's because only you went to the township, so everyone talked about you, and I knew your name. I didn't expect you to suddenly have a big reversal and preside over the work of Baishu Bay Forest Farm. For everyone, it is simply a fantasy, so you are even more famous, and many classmates are discussing you."

After the conversation opened, the two were not so embarrassed.

"Actually, I was forced to the shelves, I don't know anything, I don't understand anything, I cross the river by feeling the stones, I am trembling every day, afraid of doing something wrong, maybe one day I will be beaten back to my original shape, Director Guo criticized me this morning."

"I heard from Auntie that County Chief Yang praised you and wanted to build your forest farm into an observation point for the whole county. Oh, also, how can you call Auntie 'sister-in-law'? Taking advantage of me."

Lu Fan laughed and said: "Each discusses each other, I can't call people old! I'm really sorry today, I don't know why Director Guo called me here."

"Lu Fan, have you ever talked about an object?"

"How to say it? I won't hide it from you. I had a doll marriage since I was a child, but it was returned last year. My family conditions are very poor."

Wang Yewei asked curiously: "You still have a doll marriage? What is she doing now? Do you still have contact?"

"In the third year of high school, the marriage was returned, what else to contact? I still want face!"

"Then there is nothing, Lu Fan, how old are you?"

"April of the lunar calendar in 89, how about you?"

"Ah? I am September of 88, I went to school early enough, you are still younger than me!"

"Sigh, my situation is special, I dropped out of high school, I envy you for going to college, I have no fate with college in this life!"

"Actually, it's not interesting. Most people sleep, play games, skip classes, watch dramas, and fall in love. It's very degenerate. I guess those 985 and 211 are different from us. Lu Fan, I haven't talked about love!"

"Oh, Wang Yewei, let's go eat, this is the task assigned by Director Guo."

Wang Yewei's star eyes were slightly angry: "If Director Guo didn't give an order, you wouldn't want to eat with me? Am I very ugly?"

Lu Fan quickly said: "That's not what I meant, just said it casually. However, since we met, I think we should be honest. Just said it, my family situation is very poor, it can be said that I have nothing, my parents are gone, my sister is in the second year of middle school, I have to manage it to the end, the burden is very heavy, I don't want to delay others."

"Auntie basically told me what you said. Lu Fan, reality is cruel, but you are very strong, I admire you very much. I think two people can be together, regardless of other things, only whether they are willing or not. I am an ordinary girl, what I seek is warmth and good people, peace and health. You are a good person, can we be friends?"

This is the legendary "good person card." Lu Fan felt relieved instead. The two exchanged contact information generously and had a simple meal.

Returning to Baishu Bay, Lu Fan continued his "afforestation" cause. Du Wenlong, in addition to reviewing, was very keen on practicing driving. He is now a "temporary worker" at the forest farm, but is determined to be Lu Fan's driver.

Li Yongji, who was recuperating at home, called to ask for long leave. The director was dismissed, and such a shameful thing happened, he really didn't have the face to go to work.

Lu Fan comforted him well, let him recuperate well, and approved the leave happily, but asked him to send medical records and leave notes to the unit.

On March 6th, the Ningyang County Government held a standing meeting. Deputy County Chief Yang Chuanbei specially reported on the progress of the "forest creation" work, notified the situation of this centralized inspection, and put forward existing problems, expressing great dissatisfaction with the work of the forestry system.

But only Lu Fan was praised, and it was proposed to build Baishu Bay Forest Farm into an observation point for afforestation in the whole county.

Le Xueyi was very shocked, sighing that this kid is an immortal cockroach, and he could make waves in a place where birds don't shit. Also, when did he preside over the work of the forest farm? It's too fucking incredible, no, this is absolutely impossible! If you don't curb it, what will happen in the future?

After Yang Chuanbei finished reporting, Le Xueyi spoke: "I have no opinion on building an observation point, but I remember that this Lu Fan participated in work last year, how can he preside over the work? Does this comply with organizational procedures? Furthermore, can a young man who has worked for a few months carry this burden? Is there no one in the forestry system? It's a bit too childish! I suggest that the director of Baishu Bay Forest Farm be equipped as soon as possible, and let more suitable cadres undertake this task."

Yang Chuanbei was very unhappy, and even a little angry. Whoever is in charge of the field is responsible, which is a rule that everyone knows. The County Chief didn't express his position, what are you forcing? If you dare to point fingers today, will you reach into my territory tomorrow? If you can bear it, what can't you bear!

So, Yang Chuanbei said unpleasantly: "There is no right to speak without the right to investigate. Le County Chief doesn't know that I have run all over the county, and only the work of Baishu Bay Forest Farm makes me satisfied, and it was under the condition of a dark visit.

What's the problem with participating in work? I think using people is to break the rules and drop talents, those who can go up, those who are mediocre go down, select talents by ability, discuss talents by performance, break the identity boundary and qualifications, can't you do more or less the same? Besides, Lu Fan is only presiding over the work, which organizational principle does it violate?"

Hearing this name, Deputy County Chief Bian Jide came to his spirit. After Yang Chuanbei finished complaining, he said directly: "Forestry is the field that Chuanbei is in charge of, and forest creation work is Chuanbei's responsibility. He knows the situation better, so I won't 'point fingers'. Forest creation work is the top priority of the county party committee and county government this year, and I will definitely fully support it where I need to cooperate."

After speaking, only Yang Chuanbei cast a friendly look, and the two looked at each other and smiled, all in silence.

In fact, Le Xueyi was also dizzy. His approach made the deputy county chiefs very disgusted. Everyone has their own territory. Whether things work or not, the Secretary and County Chief can say it. Is it your turn to point fingers? Well-intentioned opinions are understandable, but you are denying it, which is taboo. Can others still get used to you?

Executive Deputy County Chief Liu Changwei was old and steady, saying: "In October, the country will come for the preliminary review. Time is urgent, don't dwell on these trifles, whoever can do the work will use whoever, but please decide, County Chief." It seems ambiguous, but actually expressed his attitude.

The wind vane is very obvious. County Chief Li Guoquan set the tone directly: "It is very necessary and important to build an observation point. Since the point is selected, go and build it. Finance will prioritize the guarantee of funds. Specific work is responsible by Chuanbei. In addition, I emphasize one point, the progress of forest creation work should be reported to me once a week, problems should be solved at any time, and no one or any department can drag their feet! Meeting adjourned!"

After the meeting, Yang Chuanbei and Bian Jide went out talking and laughing. Le Xueyi returned to the office with a gloomy face, specially instructing the secretary to learn about the situation of Baishu Bay Forest Farm in detail.

Lu Fan didn't know that even his small acting director was being watched.

The arrow is on the string, and it has to be sent. Yang Chuanbei immediately called Guo Tongyu, personally deployed, personally checked the creation plan, and gave a death order that the Baishu Bay Forest Farm observation point must be done well.

On March 8th, Women's Day, Lu Fan received a call from Guo Tongyu, asking him to come to Ningyang immediately. County Chief Yang wanted to personally arrange the creation of the observation point.

Now that he has a car, Lu Fan drove the Cheetah and rushed to the county town. This off-road vehicle and sedan cannot be compared. Small pits and small depressions don't need to be considered at all. The only drawback is that it consumes fuel. Chouchou has added two tanks of oil just for practicing driving.

On the way, Lu Fan was thinking about how to get along with County Chief Yang, thinking about what to say and what not to say. If he could make the deputy county chief in charge look at him differently, the benefits would be self-evident.

Officialdom, if no one supports it, it must be difficult to move.

Lu Fan already understood that if he wants to reach the deputy section level, at least he must have county leaders speaking. The director only has the right to recommend, and the opinions of the leaders in charge are also very important. He may not be able to promote you, but he must be able to block you.

Now that he has occupied the right time, the right place, and the harmony of people, he can't even forgive himself if he doesn't take the director's position.

The opportunity is given to you, you are not useful, who can you blame?
