Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

It was decided that the meeting would begin at 9:30, so at 9:20 the leaders entered the room one after another. There was a pattern in the order of entering according to the size of their official positions and the importance of their departments.

This formalism has not changed from ancient times to the present day. Even if there is no explicit regulation, everyone has tacitly accepted this order.

At 9:40, the county leaders entered the venue in order. At 9:50, basically all the leaders who were supposed to come had arrived.

At ten o'clock sharp, Li Gongping walked into the meeting place on time, accompanied by Liu Wen, director of the county office.

This is the style of a leader. How can a leader wait for you?

The meeting was notified at 9:30, but the main leader was half an hour late. He still thought he was early and should have been 10 or 8 minutes late.

At five minutes past ten, Liu Wen, director of the county office, announced the start of the meeting. Then, the leaders began to speak, and everyone had to say a few words.

This is not bad, five minutes per person, the leaders set their own time, and they are basically on time.

By the time all eleven leaders had finished speaking, it was already around eleven o'clock.

The common people in the audience, those who sat close to the conference platform, secretly complained that they couldn't even take a nap under the eyes of the leaders. Those who sat far away were fine.

This is more than an hour, I can take a nap.

Liu Wen came to the front, holding the microphone, and shouted in an excited tone,

"The east wind blows, the drums of war beat. Who in this world is afraid of whom? Now, we invite our county magistrate, Comrade Li Gongping, to speak. Please applaud..."

When the staff leading the applause heard this, they clapped their hands vigorously. At this moment, the whole venue was filled with thunderous applause.

Li Gongping stood up and nodded with satisfaction. The atmosphere was quite good. Like a big leader, he raised his right arm high, spread his five fingers, and gently shook it with his palm facing the people.

This is what he learned from the big leaders when he went to Beijing to attend the meeting. This is the style.

Liu Wen quickly handed the microphone over, and Li Gongping finally sat down. He coughed twice, and the staff who were leading the applause quickly pressed down their hands.

Those who saw it in front stopped clapping, but those who didn't see it in the back continued to clap, and the louder they clapped, the more the leaders liked this tune.

Li Gongping's face darkened. He was so uncultured. The leader was about to speak, but he didn't know when to applaud and when not to?

Liu Wen saw that things were not going well and his leader's face turned dark. He ran over with a big smile on his face.

"County Governor, the people love you so much. When they heard you were going to speak, they were so excited that they couldn't express it. They could only applaud to welcome you."

Being a leader is a technical job. It is said that knowing how to do something is not as good as knowing how to talk. The staff who led the applause clapped their hands so hard that sparks flew off their cheeks, but it was still not as good as Director Liu's gentle words.

Li Gongping immediately showed his expression, grinning and showing his eight big teeth.

Liu Wen secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. This leader was really hard to serve. He picked up the microphone and shouted,

"Comrades, your enthusiasm is truly like the storm on Mount Zhongshan, a million strong troops crossing the Yangtze River. Your love for County Magistrate Li is as fierce as a storm.

Now, please be quiet for a moment. Our good county magistrate, Comrade Li Gongping, will speak to you."

The common people all looked at the applause leader. The staff member who was applauding was sweating and cursing in his heart, wondering whether he should applaud or not at this time?

Are you not clapping? Why are you picking up the ending notes so high? Are you clapping? I can't stop again. This is too embarrassing.

Fortunately, Li Gongping started to speak at this time.

"Comrades, thank you for your hard work..."

According to convention, there should be applause and cheers, and some people should praise the leaders for their hard work.

But the leader was still confused and forgot to applaud.

Li Gongping was so angry that he yelled, "You bastard, I'll deal with you when I get home! Applause! It's time to applaud!"

The common people could no longer hold back and burst into laughter. This meeting finally had some flavor.

Li Gongping's face darkened and he continued to roar,

"A bunch of poor bastards, today we hold this public trial to tell you, don't jump, the higher you jump, the harder you fall. I know that many people have been gossiping recently.

You are saying this and that about me, and this and that about my son. I tell you, shut up and don't let me hear you gossiping about me anymore.

If I hear it again, at the very least I'll send you to a study class, at the worst I'll send you to jail.

"Fuck you, you're beating me like a cricket (local dialect, meaning to beat you until you're as flat as a pancake)..."

At this time, someone in the audience was shouting,

"What the hell! Your son is thirty-two years old, and you insist on marrying a fourteen-year-old. What a beastly thing you did, don't you dare to say it?"

Li Gongping's face was so gloomy that it looked like water was about to drip out. He slammed the table and stood up with the microphone in his hand.

"Who's talking? Do you dare to stand up?"

The people in the audience laughed out loud. It was worth coming to this meeting. This laughing stock can be talked about for half a year when they return to the village.

The man shouted again,

"Of course I don't dare to stand up. What if you retaliate?"

Li Gong was panting heavily. He held the microphone in one hand and pointed in the direction of the sound with the other hand.

"The police! Where are the police? They're right there. Arrest everyone and find the troublemakers!"

When the public security was mentioned, everyone realized that there was not a single public security officer in the entire venue. Even the director of the county public security bureau who was supposed to attend the meeting did not come. This was very strange.

The people who came to maintain the security at the venue turned out to be office staff, which caused a lot of discussion among the people.

At this time, a voice came from far away.

"Tyrannical and tyrannical! Bullying others with your power! Exploiting the people! Taking human lives lightly! Li Gongping, these sixteen words are for you!"

Li Gongping turned his head suddenly and saw countless police officers and fully armed soldiers running into the meeting room and surrounding the conference table tightly.

The dozen or so leaders on the stage were terrified, their faces pale, not knowing what was going on.

Li Gongping saw the director of the county public security bureau, Wang Peng, who was also wearing a military belt and gathered around the conference table with the other police officers. If he hadn't known him, he wouldn't have been able to tell the difference between the director and the ordinary police officers.

Li Gongping said angrily,

"Wang Peng, what are you doing? Are you planning a rebellion?"

Wang Peng grinned, looking miserable.

"County Magistrate Li, I have no choice. The County Public Security Bureau is no longer under my jurisdiction. I am just an ordinary police officer."

Li Gongping was horrified. The Public Security Bureau Director was a high-ranking official in the county. How could he say he was no longer in charge? Was he dismissed? That couldn't be possible. The county hadn't been notified...

"What happened? You were dismissed? How come the county didn't know about it?"

Wang Peng almost cried. "You ask me, who should I ask?" The entire county public security bureau, one director and two deputy directors, three directors were arrested, three police officers from the legal department were arrested, the director and deputy director of the detention center, and two correctional police officers were all arrested.

I was dismissed from my post, which was all due to the good deeds done by my ancestors.

In fact, he is also in a confused state now...
