1968: Started from breeding

Chapter 15: Lao Deng is indeed not just a name
Gao Zhongwei thought about it again and again and felt that he could not oppose the chicken farm.

Now that kid has aroused the desires in everyone's hearts.

If he opposed the construction of a chicken farm at this time, he would probably anger the public, so he decided to make a fuss about the selection of the farm director.

"Well, I think it's imperative to build a chicken farm, but I think we should be cautious when choosing the farm manager!"

"Su Wenchen is too young and not very stable. Once the chicken farm is built, it will be an important asset of the brigade. How can a young boy manage it? Can he?"

"I think we should find an old comrade to help him pick up the pieces. I think Guo Dahua is a good one. She is good at raising chickens. I have personally observed her!"

"Pfft!"

Su Wenchen couldn't help laughing.

"Secretary Gao, you really are a man who promotes the best regardless of personal relationship!"

Gao Zhongwei looked at Su Wenchen with an unhappy expression, "Your father doesn't avoid relatives, so what's wrong with me recommending my wife? Who doesn't know how to raise chickens?"

"Don't bring me into this. I'm different from your wife. This chicken farm, from planning to experimentation, as well as the future development direction, was all planned by me alone. My father can only help me recommend the plan to everyone!"

"Whether it can be done or not still depends on the vote of all the uncles present, so I fought for all of this on my own!"

"So what if you made it up? If a kid like you who hasn't even grown all his hair is the boss, people will think our commune is deserted."

"How about this, from now on you will be responsible for treating the chickens in the chicken farm, and Aunt Dahua will take care of the rest for you!"

Hearing this, Su Wenchen was so angry that he laughed!

He said sarcastically, "Haha, Secretary Gao is really capable. The chicken farm hasn't even been built yet, but he's already started picking peaches!"

"I admire you, but if my Aunt Dahua becomes the farm manager, I definitely won't be able to work on the chicken farm anymore, because I have to go back to feed the pigs!"

Gao Zhongwei slammed the table after listening to Su Wenchen's sarcastic words.

"Su Wenchen, what's your attitude? Labor work doesn't allow you to procrastinate! As long as the team needs you, you should take the initiative to promote the spirit of dedication."

"Oh, Secretary Gao is good at moral blackmail. But according to what you said, many members' houses are leaking. Can we promote the spirit of dedication and let the members live in the secretary's house?"

"There are still many members who can't afford clothes. Several brothers share one set of clothes. Secretary, shouldn't you carry forward the spirit of dedication and donate your family's clothes?"

"Also, many members' families don't even have enough to eat. Secretary Gao, you shouldn't be so stingy as to watch them starve! Otherwise, you just don't have the spirit of dedication!"

After hearing what Su Wenchen said, Gao Zhongwei became furious.

“Why should my house, clothes and food be shared with others?”

Su Wenchen shrugged, "Look, Secretary Gao, you don't even want to promote the spirit of dedication, but you insist on me promoting it. How come my consciousness is higher than yours, right? So it seems that I should be the secretary of the branch. After all, my consciousness is higher than yours, right?"

When Gao Zhongwei heard the other party say that he had a low level of awareness, he immediately refuted it.

This is his bargaining chip to become the branch secretary.

"When did I say I don't want to promote the spirit of dedication? Don't talk nonsense!"

Su Wenchen nodded. "So the secretary wants to promote the spirit of dedication? When are you going to send clothes and food to those in need?"

"When did I say I would send clothes and food?"

"Just now, didn't you say that as long as the brigade needs it, we should make contributions? As the branch secretary, shouldn't you take the lead in making contributions? Otherwise, why should you be the branch secretary? And why shouldn't I be the branch secretary?"

Gao Zhongwei was a little confused at this time.

No, why should I be given clothes and food just because I am the Party Secretary? What does this have to do with me being the Party Secretary?
Why should I give my things to others for free?
Gao Zhongwei thought about it for a long time. Although he didn't know what the problem was, he knew that he couldn't give his own things away for free, otherwise even the wealth at home wouldn't be enough to give them away.

He would definitely continue to be the branch secretary. He slammed the table and said, "Su Wenchen, don't blame me. This is your problem now!"

Su Wenchen spread his hands.

"What's my problem? Besides, the arrangement of my work is the business of our second team! Our second team leader hasn't said anything yet! Right! Uncle Guodong."

As the captain of the militia, Li Guodong also served as the captain of the second production team. Because there was less work in the brigade, most of the brigade cadres also held some positions in their respective production teams.

He usually didn't get along with Gao Zhongwei, so naturally he was happy to see him get humiliated, so he just patted his chest.

"Don't worry, young man Chen. When it comes to the work arrangements for our second team, Gao Zhongwei has no say. Who doesn't know his little tricks?"

"boom!"

The table was slammed again!

"You're rebelling! The team doesn't have the final say. Li Guodong, are you planning to rebel?"

Su Wenchen stuck his head out and said, "Secretary Gao, what do you mean by that? The work arrangements for our Second Squad should have been arranged by our team leader. Why do you think everyone should listen to you unconditionally?"

"What's going on, Secretary? Are you going to be a local emperor of the brigade? You are acting like a dictator. I will report this to the commune! Let's see if the commune will allow this kind of dictatorship."

"You!" Gao Zhongwei pointed at Su Wenchen with trembling hands.

He is a dictator? He is a dictator even though no one below him takes him seriously.

He is the only one!
Facing Su Wenchen's relentless pressure, Gao Zhongwei thought of many ways in his mind, but he couldn't think of a way to deal with this kid!

What should I do?
If he didn't subdue the other party, would he still have any prestige? Although his prestige was not much to begin with.

As the nominal leader, he should not take the initiative to charge into battle in this kind of situation.

He should be like Su's father, sit back and watch others argue, and then make the final decision himself.

But who can blame him for having no one under him?

No one fought for him, no one spoke for him, faced with this situation, he could only go up shirtless on his own, and ended up being held up.

Now I am stuck in a dilemma. If I win, I will be bullying the weak and people will look down on me.

If you lose, you’re doomed and your authority is completely gone!
At this time, Su's father tapped the table with the pipe in his hand, interrupting the atmosphere and giving Gao Zhongwei a way out!
"Okay, what are you all arguing about?"

After hearing this, Gao Zhongwei took this opportunity to back down immediately, because if he continued talking, he would lose even more face.

He, the party secretary of a brigade, couldn't even win an argument with a child. He couldn't understand why!

"Humph, Su Jianye, take care of your son yourself!"

Father Su first suppressed Su Wenchen's momentum to prevent people from thinking that he was too aggressive.

"Su Wenchen, don't be sarcastic when talking to your elders. You should respect them. Even if you have an opinion, you should be careful with your tone!"

Then Su's father changed the subject and used Su Wenchen's matter to put pressure on Gao Zhongwei again.

"Old Gao, you too, why are you arguing with a child? He is ignorant, are you also ignorant?"

Hearing this, Su Wenchen rolled his eyes.

Lao Deng is really cunning. He first put pressure on me, and then said that I glanced at Gao Zhongwei. Doesn't this mean that the other party is as ignorant as him?
Then he, as the captain, became the most authoritative and fair referee on the scene.

It turns out that Lao Deng is not unworthy of his reputation for having been able to suppress Gao Zhongwei for so many years!
