Chapter 195 Only You Can

"Secretary Sun, Accountant Sun, you two came at the right time. I was just criticizing Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang for not being active in their work!"

"Because they were not active in their work, we were ultimately unable to complete the production task on time. I suggest that we directly confiscate their work points for today to serve as a warning to others."

"We must not let them hold us back!"

Having said that, Shao Ruian waved his hand vigorously with a righteous look on his face, as if he was making some important speech.

People who don’t know him would think he is some national leader!
When Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang saw that Shao Ruian was going to use them as scapegoats, their eyes instantly turned red. They wanted to kick Shao Ruian to the ground and beat him up.

Unfortunately, they had not completely lost their minds yet. They knew they could not do this in front of Sun Maocai and Sun Zhongping, so they could only defend themselves with indignation:

"Secretary Sun, don't listen to his nonsense. He is the one who is not active in his work!"

"That's right, Secretary Sun, you must not be deceived by such a despicable and shameless villain! If you don't believe it, you can ask them, they can prove that we are not lazy!"

Hearing this, Shao Ruian's face changed slightly, and then he hurriedly cast threatening looks at Wen Jianguo, Wang Zhiyong, Zhao Dabao, and Liu Jianjun.

Sun Maocai's face suddenly darkened, and he glanced at Shao Ruian with some dissatisfaction, then turned his head to look at Wen Jianguo, Wang Zhiyong, Zhao Dabao, Liu Jianjun and others, and asked in a deep voice:
"What do you say?"

Hearing this, Wen Jianguo, Wang Zhiyong, Zhao Dabao, Liu Jianjun and others unconsciously avoided Sun Maocai's gaze, then lowered their heads and remained silent.

In fact, they were not unaware that Shao Ruian was deliberately retaliating against Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang, and even had the intention of killing the chicken to scare the monkey.

However, they also knew that Shao Ruian was promoted to the position of team leader by Sun Maocai, so if they chose to go against Shao Ruian, it would be equivalent to going against Sun Maocai.

In this case, can they still have any good results?

Therefore, faced with a dilemma, they could only choose to remain silent.

When Shao Ruian saw that Wen Jianguo, Wang Zhiyong, Zhao Dabao, and Liu Jianjun did not stand on the side of Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang, he instantly felt relieved, then turned his head to look at Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang with some disdain.

Seeing this, Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang felt angry and a little chilled.

In fact, they knew that Shao Ruian was a selfish hypocrite, and they also knew that Shao Ruian's backer was Sun Maocai, but they were ultimately just hot-blooded young men who had not experienced much of the world. When they were treated unfairly, it was difficult for them to swallow their anger, which led to conflicts between them and Shao Ruian.

Before this, they still held out hope, thinking that Sun Maocai might not let Shao Ruian do whatever he wanted, and that the other four team members would support them.

Unexpectedly, this was just wishful thinking on their part.

When it came to their own interests, Wen Jianguo, Wang Zhiyong, Zhao Dabao, and Liu Jianjun all chose to protect themselves without hesitation, without caring about the life or death of the two of them at all.

Just when they were hesitating whether to risk it all and fight Shao Ruian to the death, they suddenly heard Sun Maocai say calmly: "Since you don't want to say it, I don't want to force you."

"Here, I want to emphasize again that as a group, you are a whole. No matter who you are, you should focus on completing the production task and must not sabotage it in private."

"If any of you have any opinions, you can come and tell me, and I will definitely handle it in a fair and just manner."

"Considering that this is your first official work day, and you may not be used to it yet, I will not deduct your work points this time. You will all be registered according to the basic work points."

"I hope you can work harder starting from tomorrow and complete the production task on time."

"Otherwise, deducting work points is a small matter. If you are asked to make a self-criticism in front of everyone, it will be a real disgrace."

After saying this, he looked at Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang's surprised expressions, as well as Shao Ruian's dazed expression, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In his opinion, Shao Ruian's operation was too low-level and too crude.

In order to let Shao Ruian learn a lesson and become more cautious, and also to win the hearts of other male educated youth, he had to show Shao Ruian on the spot what the art of controlling people is.

Soon, Sun Zhongping, who was standing aside, quickly registered the work points of the male educated youth group, and then waved his hand to signal Shao Ruian and others that they could finish their work and go home.

After Sun Maocai took Sun Zhongping away, Shao Ruian was still unable to react.

He was obviously the person promoted by Sun Maocai, so why was he the one who got hurt?
Is it because Li Guoqiang did not stay in the male educated youth group and could not bring any benefits to Sun Maocai, so Sun Maocai was disappointed in him?
Thinking of this possibility, his heart suddenly tightened, and then he didn't bother to argue with Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang, and hurriedly took a step forward to catch up.

When Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang saw Shao Ruian's actions, they couldn't help but reveal a look of contempt.

Then, they glanced at Wen Jianguo, Wang Zhiyong, Zhao Dabao and Liu Jianjun with some disgust, and then left without looking back.

When Wen Jianguo, Wang Zhiyong, Zhao Dabao, and Liu Jianjun saw this situation, they couldn't help feeling a little regretful for a moment.

If they had known this would happen, they should have stood with Luo Weixiong and Deng Hualiang.

Now, they are the bad guys in vain.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting it. I should think carefully about what to do in the future!

Judging from Shao Ruian’s actions just now, this matter is probably not over yet.

Thinking that a lot of bad things might happen in the future, they couldn't help but feel even more envious and jealous of Li Guoqiang who was living a carefree life.

Just as they were walking back, thinking about what to do next, Shao Ruian also met with a rebuff from Sun Maocai, and ran back to the educated youth point in shame.

Then, he happened to meet Shang Xiuzhen, who had a gloomy look on her face, at the door, and his mood instantly improved.

"Hey, Team Leader Shang, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

"none of your business!"

Upon hearing this, Shang Xiuzhen immediately retorted impatiently.

Although her mind was a bit straightforward, it didn't mean she was stupid, and she could easily see Shao Ruian's ill intentions.

In addition, she was worried about how to complete the production task on time, so she naturally didn't have the mood to be so hypocritical with Shao Ruian.

"cough"

When Shao Ruian saw that Shang Xiuzhen was so disrespectful to him, he was immediately choked. Then, just as he was about to retort, he suddenly thought of Sun Maocai's cold attitude, so when the words came to his lips, he quickly swallowed them back.

He knew that his most urgent task now was to think of a way to regain Sun Maocai's attention and support, rather than getting into conflict with others here.

Otherwise, if the matter gets out of hand, he might be replaced as the team leader.

By then, he will suffer a great loss.

"Bah, you wimp!" Shang Xiuzhen couldn't help but spit in disgust when she saw Shao Ruian, a grown man, just walked away with his tail between his legs after being confronted by her.

Then, she couldn't help but think of Li Guoqiang, who had outstanding abilities and conditions in all aspects, and she also felt emotional.

[It is true that if you compare yourself to others, you will die; if you compare goods to others, you will throw them away! ]

Once upon a time, she was still complaining that Li Guoqiang was not capable of being a good team leader. Who would have thought that Li Guoqiang would suddenly transform himself and become a middle-level cadre under the production team!

In fact, if the apiary can be successfully established, then Li Guoqiang will really be a big shot. To exaggerate a little, he will be like a provincial governor in ancient times, and will not be restricted by the production brigade, let alone the production team.

After some calculations, she realized that if she wanted to reach Li Guoqiang's level in the future, she would have to become a team leader, otherwise she would not even be qualified to speak loudly in front of Li Guoqiang.

Ugh!
As she thought about it, she shook her head, sighed softly, then turned back to the house and suggested softly, "How about we go to Li Guoqiang's house and take a hot bath first! This way we can feel more comfortable."

Hearing this, Xu Wanling, Zhang Chunyan, Pan Qiaoyan, Shen Fengxia and Wu Zhaodi, who were lying in a mess on the fire pit, all brightened up their eyes and quickly spoke up to express their agreement.

"Yeah!"

"Then let's go over there quickly!"

"Fengxia, help me get some clothes. I'll go get some firewood."

"."

Soon, the six of them left the educated youth site, each carrying clothes and firewood, and headed towards Li Guoqiang's home.

This scene happened to be seen by Shao Ruian.

He had a gloomy face and stared at the youthful and delicate figures of Shang Xiuzhen and others. Then he suddenly turned his head and spat on the ground with a look of jealousy.

At the beginning, in his opinion, Li Guoqiang was just a sickly person who posed no threat, and he did not take Li Guoqiang seriously at all.

Who could have thought that Li Guoqiang not only bullied him, but also snatched away all those female educated youth!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt, and he wished he could replace Li Guoqiang immediately.

However, this was just a thought. In fact, he had no way to deal with Li Guoqiang.

At this time, Li Guoqiang had no idea that even though he was not present, Shao Ruian was still jealous of him.

He had just returned home from the apiary and was enjoying Xu Yuping's attentive care when he saw Shang Xiuzhen and others suddenly running to his door.

He was not surprised by this. He just walked forward and said hello, then let them do as they pleased.

Although his mentality has changed a little now, it doesn't mean that he can do whatever he wants.

Especially for those little girls like Shang Xiuzhen, he didn't want to take the initiative to provoke them, so as to avoid any unnecessary trouble.

Unless someone can take the initiative to bring the meat to his mouth, forget it.

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of the soft and fragrant Ma Shufen. He hadn't seen her since the last time they dug a canal together.

I don't know if it was because he was too rough and frightened her, or if she had given up on the idea of ​​borrowing chickens to lay eggs?

Just when he was wondering whether he should take some time to visit Ma Shufen's parents' home to inquire about the situation, Shang Xiuzhen, who had finished her shower first, suddenly opened the door and walked in with a gust of fragrance.

Looking at Shang Xiuzhen's rosy cheeks and her solemn expression, he raised his eyebrows slightly, then laughed and asked, "What's wrong? Looking at you, have you encountered any difficulties?"

"Ok!"

Shang Xiuzhen glanced at Li Guoqiang, and then without any intention of concealing it, she nodded and replied: "I did encounter a little problem, I hope you can give me some advice!"

"Yo!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted, and then he joked mischievously, "Team Leader Shang, when did you become so modest? With your abilities, you shouldn't need to come here to ask for my advice, right?"

"piss off!"

Shang Xiuzhen rolled her eyes, and then said unhappily, "I'm serious with you now, don't joke with me here, I'm not in as good a mood as you!"

"Row!"

Li Guoqiang saw Shang Xiuzhen getting angry, and nodded quickly and asked, "Then tell me what problem you encountered? I'll see if I can give you some useful suggestions."

"Here's the thing."

Soon, Shang Xiuzhen told the story of how the female educated youth group had been working so hard but still failed to complete the production task. Then she asked expectantly, "What do you think I should do next to make them more motivated to work and complete the production task on time?"

"This is it!"

After listening to this, Li Guoqiang hesitated for a moment, then quietly suggested, "I think you can go to Uncle Fu and ask him to temporarily arrange for you guys to be assigned to other production teams under the pretext of being familiar with the work."

"This way, you can avoid not being able to complete the production tasks on time, and you can also avoid getting together and pulling each other down."

"When you have adapted to the work, then let Uncle Fu transfer you back."

"oops!"

Upon hearing this suggestion, Shang Xiuzhen's eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't help but slap her thigh in annoyance and said, "Really, such a simple method, why didn't I think of it before!"

"Ah!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted when he saw this, and then he laughed and said, "Actually, the main reason is that you care too much about your position as team leader. You always want to lead the team with your own abilities, so you don't think about this aspect."

"If you ask me, you don't have to be too anxious. As long as you take it step by step, you will be able to become an excellent production team leader sooner or later."

"It's just like when you practiced your marksmanship before. Once you get impatient, it will be useless."

"Humph!"

Shang Xiuzhen heard Li Guoqiang's straightforward words and snorted with embarrassment. She retorted, "You are the only one who can do it. That's enough!"

However, what she didn't realize was that there seemed to be something more in the look she gave Li Guoqiang.
