1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 46 Caught in the act
The middle-aged man who ran out to cause trouble was the assistant manager of the supply and marketing cooperative.

The assistant manager who is in charge of hygiene and cleanliness of the counter in the supply and marketing cooperative has some power over the people in the cooperative. After all, if there is garbage in the corner of your counter or the shelf is dirty, he can take care of it.

But if you ask me how much power I have, of course I don't have any. I don't care about personnel or wages, and sometimes I have to help clean up the place. To put it bluntly, I'm just a handyman, just a formal employee.

But even if you are just doing odd jobs, working in a place like the supply and marketing cooperative is a good position that everyone envies.

The man had been used to being admired and flattered by others during the years he had worked at the supply and marketing cooperative. He had never been humiliated like this before. After Shen Chengyuan finished speaking, he was stunned for several seconds and couldn't react.

When I regained my composure, my hands were shaking with anger.

What the hell, how dare you talk to him like that.

The man felt like he was about to have a heart attack. He pointed at Shen Chengyuan and muttered after a while, "Who said I can't manage the market outside? Let me tell you, not only am I in charge of everything in the supply and marketing cooperative, but I, Zhu An, can also manage all the big and small things in Baota Town."

Yes, if there is anything that cannot be taken care of, I will take care of it!

After Zhu An finished speaking, he put his hands on his hips, and finally felt a little relieved.

But before he could feel proud for two seconds, someone tapped his shoulder.

Zhu An twisted his body impatiently, saying with disdain, "Don't interrupt." Can't you see that he is teaching someone a lesson?
But the people behind him did not give up. Seeing that he ignored them, they continued to order.

Zhu An was already in a bad mood, and now he was furious. He turned around and cursed, "Who is so blind? Do you want to be scolded too?"

Zhu An looked very ferocious, as if he wanted to eat someone.

But when he saw who was standing behind him, he was stunned. His heart skipped a beat and his voice began to tremble. "Master, Director."

The visitor was Director Tang from the town office.

He is not the director of the supply and marketing cooperative office, but the director of the town office, so his jurisdiction is wider and more far-reaching.

Director Tang is in his early fifties and wears a pair of black-framed glasses. He usually looks very amiable, but those who know him know that this is just an appearance.

Director Tang is well-known in the town office for his uprightness and strict self-discipline. He hates those evildoers within the system who take advantage of their status to abuse their power and oppress the people for no reason.

In the offices in the town, everyone had to behave properly when they saw him, for fear of being caught and getting into unnecessary trouble.

At this time, Zhu An was caught on the spot and his legs were shaking with fear.

"Director Tang, he didn't listen to my advice and ignored the rules. I just said it casually to scare him."

It was winter, and Zhu An's forehead was almost sweating.

Although he didn't do anything harmful, the worst that could happen was that he would be criticized and asked to write a self-criticism.

But it is also embarrassing for a man in his forties to read a self-criticism at a meeting!
Director Tang looked at Zhu An with a wooden face, "Are you saying it's scary?"

Zhu An nodded quickly. "Yes, yes, I was just saying it casually. I definitely don't really mean it. I'm just assisting in the work of the supply and marketing cooperative. How can I be so capable of managing the entire Baota Town? Hehe, just saying it casually."

Zhu An smiled and explained seriously.

Isn't that what he thought at the beginning? Just scare them a few times and they will definitely pack up and leave.

After all, the market has not been officially opened yet, and there are no rules and regulations from above. Although the town has held a meeting and appropriately allowed some free market operations within a feasible scope, these things are only known to them, and the peasants in the village know nothing about them.

But today, he ran into a tough opponent. First, there was a disobedient young wife, and then there was a troublemaker who challenged him.

Not only was he very angry, but he was also caught red-handed by Director Tang.

Zhu An wanted to die and just wanted to say something to get over the matter.

But Director Tang wasn't someone you could fool around with. Zhu An explained, but he didn't get to the point. He was still smiling and didn't seem serious or rigorous at all. If someone like this wasn't educated seriously, he'd be a disaster in the future. Sooner or later, he'd become a nuisance.

"Juan!"

Director Tang roared, and his already serious face began to become scary.

Zhu An was about to cry, and tremblingly said, "Director Tang, do you have any instructions?"

Director Tang: "Apologize sincerely to the people, write a self-criticism, and submit it to my office."

This……

It’s over, it’s over, there’s no escaping the fate of those named at the conference.

Zhu An had a sad face and said, "Yes, Director Tang, I accept the inspection from my superiors."

woo woo woo...

Zhu An moved his steps and first went in front of Shen Chengyuan, lowered his head and said things like I shouldn't act arrogantly in front of the public, bluff, and use chicken feathers as a token of authority. But in his heart he hated this young man to death.

He felt that it was all this kid's fault that he was in such bad luck today.

He remembered this grudge and would go and find out later which class this kid was in in the town's high school.

Shen Chengyuan remained silent the entire time. He waited until Zhu An finished speaking before saying calmly, "I advise you not to bear this grudge, otherwise you will die an ugly death."

How dare you, such a coward, hold a grudge?

Shen Chengyuan felt that Zhu An didn't have the courage to do this, but since Brother Song had just instructed him, he still had to say something.

Zhu An was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "How is that possible? You're overthinking it."

Shen Chengyuan: "That's fine. Otherwise, if I have any problems in the future, the first person I think of is you."

Zhu An: "..." He felt like he was being held captive.

After talking to Shen Chengyuan, Zhu An went to Meng Changli and He Jinqiu and said a few polite words, saying that he was overmanaging or something like that.

The person who was just shouting that he wanted to arrest them now acted like a defeated puppy.

Meng Changli was a little proud and almost hummed, but fortunately He Jinqiu pulled her back and suppressed it in time.

He Jinqiu said to Zhu An, "If one can admit his mistakes and correct them, he is still a good public servant of the people. You were just too impatient and didn't know how to handle the situation, so you said the wrong thing. We all understand."

Thinking that his family would have to do business in the town in the future, He Jinqiu certainly didn't want to offend these people.

It is easy to see the King of Hell, but it is difficult to deal with the little ghosts. Who knows if these people will hold a grudge and do something to you secretly.

Just now, when this man threatened Shen Chengyuan and said he would find the school, He Jinqiu was really a little scared.

She didn't know whether doing business at the moment would cause trouble, but if it affected her daughter's studies, it would definitely not be okay.

So just now when Shen Chengyuan was delaying time in front, He Jinqiu pushed Meng Shulan into the crowd and ordered her not to show up.

If something really happened, Meng Shulan would definitely not ignore it.

But now that the matter has been resolved, she has nothing to worry about. She looks at the nonchalant Shen Chengyuan, and then looks at Gu Hansong with admiration.

So, when Gu Hansong felt that everything was fine and was about to leave, he turned around and saw the girl in the crowd who was giving him a thumbs up and smiling like a flower.
