Year: I planted trees in Saihanba

"Director Yu, don't rush!"

"The seedling cultivation work will not be able to proceed smoothly until at least next spring."

"why?"

Yu Zhenglai was very puzzled by Xia Tian's words.

All eyes in the conference room turned to Xia Tian.

“Seedling cultivation is not something that can be accomplished overnight.”

"First and foremost, the seed!"

Everyone knows about the "Wind-Suppressing Sacred Tree" on the dam!

"Who doesn't know that tree?"

"The seeds, I plan to use the pine nuts from that tree!"

"Secondly, I must establish a laboratory on the dam."

"Some experimental equipment is something that our bureau, and even the region, doesn't have!"

"Therefore, it must be transported from Beiping City!"

"We also need to establish a nursery on the dam, and the preparation work for the nursery is also very complicated."

"So we have to take it one step at a time!"

"Alright, Xia, it seems I was too impatient!"

After listening to Xia Tian's words, Yu Zheng nodded.

"Alright, that's all for now, everyone can go home!"

……

"Engineer Chen, I wonder about the promising talents you brought up this year?"

"The seedlings have all been planted, there's no problem."

"But I reckon it'll be like this: one year young, two years old yellow, and three years dead."

"But now we have Xia!"

"Everything will be alright, won't it?"

"Yes!"

Yu Zheng nodded.

"I didn't know what excuse to use to promote Xia to deputy head of the technical department!"

"Now look what's happened, they've come looking for us!"

Yu Zheng looked at Engineer Chen with deep emotion.

……

three days later.

It’s the same conference room.

"The following is a personnel appointment!"

"Approved by the higher authorities!"

"Comrade Xia Tian, ​​a fourth-level clerk of the Weichang County Forestry Bureau, is hereby appointed!"

"Starting today, I am to serve as the deputy head of the Technical Section of the Forestry Bureau of Weichang County!"

"He also serves as a member of the Party Leadership Group of the Weichang County Forestry Bureau."

"Forestry Bureau of Chengde Prefecture, Rehe Province; Weichang County Government!"

"November 1956, 9!"

"Let's give a round of applause to welcome Comrade Xia Tian as the deputy head of the Technical Section of the Weichang County Forestry Bureau!"

Yu Zhenglai led the applause.

Xia Tian never imagined that he would become an official.

Although it's a minor, insignificant official position, it's still a good thing!

He had been at the Weichang County Forestry Bureau for less than a month.

He unexpectedly rose to become a real cadre.

"Everyone, please welcome Comrade Xia to speak!"

Yu Zhenglai led the applause once again.

"First of all, please allow me to express my deepest gratitude!"

"I sincerely thank the organization for this weighty trust placed in me."

"It is because of the organization's recognition and trust that I have this valuable opportunity!"

"To be able to stand here and express my deepest gratitude."

"At the same time, I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to the Forestry Bureau for its careful cultivation and patient guidance over the years."

"Secondly, I would like to express my special thanks to Director Yu for his unwavering support and to all the leaders for their consistent help and understanding."

"It is fair to say that without the support, care and tolerance of all the leaders, I would not be where I am today, making continuous progress."

"Hereby, I solemnly promise this summer."

"We will certainly live up to the organization's high expectations and the Forestry Bureau's hard work!"

"Starting today, I will go all out and do everything in my power to ensure the trees on the dam survive!"

"Even if the road ahead is rugged and bumpy, even if I encounter many difficulties and obstacles, I will never back down and will forge ahead!"

"I believe that as long as we work together and persevere."

"We will surely be able to revitalize this land and make lush greenery the most beautiful scenery here!"

That's all for now, thank you everyone!

Summer delivered a passionate speech and then bowed deeply to the crowd.

"it is good!"

"Comrade Xia's speech was excellent!"

Yu Zheng nodded in satisfaction.

The leaders present were also very satisfied.

"Look at Xia, she really is a college student!"

"That's a very eloquent statement!"

Although they didn't offer Xia any real help.

But Xia's words warmed their hearts.

Summer also felt somewhat unbelievable.

Could he really have said those words?

It seems like he's unlocked some incredible talent!

"Hey, let Old Chen make the first move!"

"No, I have to talk to Lao Yu about this. Xia Xia is definitely got the makings of a political worker!"

Qu He looked at Xia Tian, ​​his expression shifting between light and shadow.

"Such excellent political work material, but he's a techie!"

"He's such a jack-of-all-trades!"

"Comrade Xia is too well-rounded!"

"No way, I'll regret missing out on such a great political worker."

Qu He looked at Xia Tian and secretly made up her mind.

"Alright, everyone, meeting adjourned!"

……

evening.

Yu Zheng came to the office.

"Old Yu, Old Yu!"

Qu He, carrying his enamel mug, found Yu Zheng.

"What's wrong, Lao Qu?"

Yu Zhenglai looked at Qu He standing at the door and smiled.

"I've come here because there are some things I'd like to discuss with you."

Qu He looked at Yu Zhenglai and suddenly became a little awkward.

"What's going on here?"

Yu Zheng looked at Qu He and his eyes widened.

"Why are you acting all coy, Lao Qu?"

"It's about Xia!"

"What's wrong with Xia?"

When Yu Zheng heard Qu He mention summer, he immediately felt nervous.

"Xia is fine, it's..."

"No, Lao Qu, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Yu Zhenglai looked at the hesitant and awkward Qu He and became somewhat anxious.

"I want Xia Xia to be the deputy head of the Political Work Section!"

"what?"

"Old Qu, what did you say? Say it again!"

Yu Zhenglai thought he had misheard.

"I said I wanted Xia Xia to be the deputy head of the Political Work Section!"

Qu He repeated what he had just said.

"No, Lao Qu, are you serious?"

"Of course I'm serious, more serious than real gold!"

Qu nodded.

"Old Qu, no offense, but Xia is a key technical member, what are you doing here?"

"No, Lao Yu, listen to me, Xia is indeed a key technical member!"

"But he's also a talented political worker!"

"Didn't his speech resonate deeply with everyone?"

"Think about it carefully!"

"Xia has both intellectual and moral qualities!"

"You need ability, you need ability!"

"You tell me, isn't someone like this a natural-born political worker?"

Yu Zheng nodded after listening to Qu He's words.

Although he was less sensitive to political matters than Qu He.

But no matter what, he did rise to the position of bureau chief.

"I'm fine on my end!"

"It's Xia's side. He's now the deputy head of the technical department!"

"I'm afraid he'll be overwhelmed and that it will further delay his technical work!"

"Hey, I've already thought of that!"

"Xia is a natural talent; calling him that is just a formality!"

"I'll just offer a few pointers now and then, that'll be enough!"

"It won't interfere with his technical work!"

Qu He also knew the importance of tree planting and seedling cultivation.

However, he had already considered a solution before bringing it up with Yu Zheng.
