Training the Heavens

Chapter 31 Thank You Letter

Zhang Lifeng first took the article encouraging learning and started reading it. After finishing it, he couldn't help but applaud. The language was plain and simple, and the emotions contained were sincere and touching. The image of the poor student who studied hard was vividly portrayed on the paper.

"What a great article! It can be published directly without much revision! You are born to do this!" Zhang Lifeng praised sincerely. Many people believe that only articles with beautiful writing style are good articles, but this is not the case.

For a senior writer like him, gorgeous writing is just a basic level. Most of the articles written by excellent writers are simple and plain, and they can use the simplest words to describe the most touching pictures, such as Wang Zengqi.

Gao Jialin's current level is certainly far from that of Wang Zengqi, but he has already surpassed the stage of showing off vocabulary and touched the true meaning of literature. Such talent really makes him envious.

Hearing his praise, Gao Jialin was also somewhat happy, because if he only relied on his own abilities, he would not be able to write such an article. This showed that Gao Jialin himself had a high literary talent. In this way, even if the world ended and he did not win anything good in the lottery, he would not get nothing.

"You just said you wrote something else? What article is it? Let me see it?" Zhang Lifeng asked impatiently. Since the first article was so good, the rest must be of good quality as well.

Gao Jialin picked up the article and handed it over. "These are two thank-you letters. The successful resolution of this matter is inseparable from the help of Section Chief Liu of the Regional Education Bureau, Section Chief Xie of the Post Office, and others. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to obtain solid evidence to prove Gao Shuangxing was an imposter."

These two thank-you letters were also the result of Gao Jialin's careful consideration. On the one hand, by exposing the matter to the world, although it helped him get back the opportunity to go to college and made the participants receive the punishment they deserved, it would also make the province and the region feel uncomfortable.

After all, such a big case happened in their jurisdiction, and anyone would feel embarrassed, so it is best to make up for it at this time, and these two thank-you letters are the best choice.

The thank-you letter proves that the problem lies with a small group of people like Qin Baosheng and Ma Zhansheng. The majority of comrades are still good! It is precisely because of comrades like Section Chief Liu and Section Chief Xie who stick to principles and care about college entrance examination candidates that Gao Minglou's conspiracy was not successful.

In this way, the responsibility of the province and region will be greatly reduced, and they can breathe a sigh of relief. Even the parties involved are grateful to us, so our superiors should not punish us too much, right?

Finding bright spots in bad things is an old tradition. Gao Jialin, who has many years of experience working in central government agencies, is naturally aware of this. So when Ma Yue brought leaders from the provincial and regional administrative offices over, he thought of writing these two letters.

As for the thank-you letter to the department where Ma Yue and Zheng Zhihua work, it has been prepared, but it has not been written yet because the matter has not been completely resolved. Moreover, the thank-you letter is just icing on the cake for them, so there is no need to be too anxious.

A thank-you letter to the regional education bureau and post office is a timely help and must be written before the decision is made.

Secondly, Gao Jialin was also using these two letters to establish his own image. These two units helped him, so he used thank-you letters to repay them. In this way, other people would think that this young man knew how to be grateful, and if they encountered any problems in the future, they would be willing to help Gao Jialin.

Zhang Lifeng finished reading the letters, feeling a mixture of emotions. The style of these two thank-you letters was vastly different from the exhortation to study. They clearly felt like they were written by a seasoned writer with years of experience within the system. The wording was meticulously chosen, each sentence hitting the mark. The endings were even more elevating, portraying the officials who had helped Gao Jialin as role models of dedication and concern for college entrance exam candidates. He was well aware of the significance of these two letters at this time. The Kuanzhou County Education Bureau and Post Office were subordinate to the regional education bureau and post office. Since impersonation had occurred in Kuanzhou, the regional education bureau and post office would also bear joint liability. At the very least, they couldn't escape the charge of lax management of their subordinate units.

Now, with these two letters from Gao Jialin, their responsibilities can be greatly reduced. Even Section Chief Liu, Section Chief Xie and others may be commended and promoted, because it was them who prevented the tragedy from happening. Such good comrades must be rewarded!

"Why did you think of writing these two letters?" Zhang Lifeng couldn't help but suspect that there was a master behind Gao Jialin, but the working group's investigation did not find this person.

Among the people Gao Jialin could contact, only his uncle Gao Yuzhi worked within the system. However, Gao Yuzhi worked in the army and was not familiar with the local situation, so he could not come up with such an idea. Moreover, Gao Yuzhi and Gao Jialin had no correspondence during this period.

"Someone helped me, shouldn't I write a thank you letter?" Gao Jialin looked at Zhang Lifeng blankly, as if the question he asked was incredible.

"Yes, we should be grateful for the help we receive. This is indeed the most basic moral requirement!" Zhang Lifeng was speechless. He could only think that this was written by Gao Jialin from his heart. He only wanted to thank those benefactors and didn't think about anything else.

"Then why are the styles of these two letters completely different from the first article? Where did you learn that?" he asked again.

"Did you learn it from the newspaper? I thought this was a letter to the unit, so the wording must be formal and serious, so I recalled the articles in the People's Daily and Guangming Daily while writing. What's wrong? Is my writing not good?" Gao Jialin asked.

"No, it's not that it's badly written, it's that it's too good!" Zhang Lifeng glanced at the two thank-you letters again and indeed saw some traces of newspaper articles. He could only conclude that Gao Jialin's literary talent was indeed outstanding and it was too easy for him to imitate the writing style.

"Well, can you write calligraphy? No? Well, do you have red paper and a brush at home?" Zhang Lifeng had a new idea.

"No, but I can borrow it! What do you want to do?" Gao Jialin stood up.

"Since you have written a thank-you letter, it should be formal. It is best to write it on a big red paper, and then you can deliver it to their unit in person! If you can't write calligraphy, I can copy it for you! Go and borrow paper and pen quickly, and let's write it quickly!" Zhang Lifeng felt that this was also a good promotional material.

Gao Jialin quickly borrowed paper and pen, and Zhang Lifeng picked up the pen and started copying quickly. Before long, two thank-you letters written on big red paper were completed.

After the ink dried, he took Gao Jialin to the region to deliver the letter.
