Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

"What should we do then?" Zhao Jia Huan became increasingly anxious.

Even the milk that had stopped flowing was almost squeezed out.

"What to do? Just let it be!" Lu Weiguo kicked his feet a few times.

They hurried to the county government compound.

The office that was converted was squeezed out from other departments.

The head of the office is Zhao Jiahuan, Director Zhao.

He only had Lu Weiguo and a young girl who had been assigned to him from a vocational school.

The little girl wore glasses and looked like a good student.

She wore a simple ponytail and wasn't particularly outstanding in appearance, but she was very pleasing to the eye.

As soon as Zhao Jia Huan entered the room, he stood awkwardly by the table with a rag in his hand.

Three people share one office.

It was a disastrous start.

"Director Zhao."

"Xiao Kong, Kong Lihua, graduated from vocational school, recommended by the school. She's a good student, hardworking, and comes from an average family. Please take good care of Xiao Kong." Zhao Jiahuan said as he walked back to his desk.

"Lu Weiguo, this is another colleague in our office. If you need anything, just ask him. The other colleague at the other desk is still forging steel at the rolling mill and won't be able to come over for a while."

After Zhao Jiahuan finished his introduction, he began to look through the materials for the communes below.

Kong Lihua was too shy to look up. She wanted to greet Lu Weiguo, but she raised her hand and then lowered it again.

Finally, he managed to squeeze out, "Brother Lu, look, where's it not clean enough? Let me clean it for you again."

"Kong, we're both just clerks, you don't need to tidy up the office. When we have time, we can take turns tidying it up."

After saying this, Lu Weiguo stopped looking up, took the documents from Zhao Jiahuan's hand, and began to look at them one by one.

Based on this alone, Kong Lihua could clearly see Lu Weiguo's status.

She's been here for almost three months.

All I do every day is clean the house; I don't do anything else.

On his very first day there, Lu Weiguo was able to look at the documents in Director Zhao's hands.

As she thought about it, she found herself walking in that direction without realizing it.

"Perfect timing. Don't just sit around doing nothing. I've finished looking through these documents. Take a look and separate the communes with roughly the same problems."

For example, those with land contracting issues, those involved in disturbances in the production brigade, and those preparing for or already having small workshops—those that seemed similar were separated.

Lu Weiguo was unaware of Kong Lihua's abilities, so he said a few more words.

If it were Meng Fanjiao standing here, she would probably understand what he meant once the information was given to her.

"Let's go to these communes first; the problems there are relatively simple."

Lu Weiguo glanced through the materials and handed the few sheets of paper he had kept in his hand to Zhao Jiahuan.

"These few? You say they're easy to handle?"

Zhao Jia Huan glanced at it and saw that it was the elderly people from those villages who were leading the opposition to the reforms.

Other villages are making progress to varying degrees, but those few villages are perhaps the few in Northeast China that begin with a surname.

Most people in the village share the same surname.

Therefore, their attitude towards the commune was not as good as their attitude towards the elderly in the village.

"Yes, this problem is easy to solve. We just need to communicate well with those old men, and there won't be any obstacles to the implementation of future policies."

This can serve as a benchmark for other communes.

Zhao Jia Huan looked incredulous, after all, he had seen those old men before.

Forget about communication, they simply won't listen to a single word.

There was even an old man who was not only hard of hearing but also illiterate.

But Kong Lihua took notes in her notebook as if she were listening to a teacher's lecture.

"It's good to be eager to learn," Lu Weiguo patted Kong Lihua on the shoulder. "However, when the boss isn't asking you to take notes, and when they're discussing internal work behind closed doors, it's best not to take notes."

After Lu Weiguo finished speaking, he grabbed Zhao Jiahuan by the back of the neck and walked out of the office.

This little girl, even at this hour, is still planning to make some tea before going.

This is definitely because they've gotten used to a life of happiness.

Kong Lihua was completely shocked.

"Let's buy two steamed buns to eat on the way. We'll go to my house to pick up the tractor, and we'll take it with us. Also... I'll change my clothes now; the more stylish we look, the better."

"No... they've always hated capitalists..."

"Listen to me, try to finish the race in the next two days."

. . . . .

Zhao Family Village, as the name suggests, is almost entirely populated by people with the surname Zhao.

In Northeast China, especially Heilongjiang, it was the most difficult place during the War of Resistance against Japan, when the country was attacked from both sides.

It is rare to find a village that can maintain a complete surname and genealogy.

After all, most families have lost their young men to the virus.

Women and children, too, suffered greatly while fleeing.

There are only three places like Zhaojiatun in the entire Danjiangkou County.

Upon arriving at the village entrance, Lu Weiguo looked at the three characters "Zhao Family Village" written in a bold and elegant style.

He jokingly said, "Isn't this your family? Don't you know anyone you can claim to be related to?"

"Stop joking. The Zhao family is a very common surname. In our area, there are several versions of the Zhao family genealogy. They were a prominent family in ancient times." Zhao Jiahuan stuffed a bun into his mouth.

He said, his mouth bulging.

"Hurry up and wipe your mouth. No wonder the village chief of Zhao's family doesn't want to talk to you. With your mindset, you're just acting like a capitalist."

"You're dressed like a capitalist!"

Before the two could finish speaking, several old men who were enjoying the cool air at the village entrance looked over.

Upon seeing the tractor, they all stood up, leaning on their crutches.

They came to inquire about the identities of the two individuals.

Although there are inspection and duty personnel at the entrance of Fendou Village.

They can come and go freely, and have never been asked such a question before.

"This is from the County Party Committee Office..."

"I've come to see your village chief about something," Lu Weiguo interrupted Zhao Jiahuan, adjusting his collar.

I also showed off the watch on my wrist.

"Then who are you...?"

"Look at our outfits, do we really need to report to you?"

Lu Weiguo, arrogant and haughty, raised his head and looked down at the old men.

The more arrogant the appearance, the more arrogant it should be.

Even if you've never eaten pork, you've at least seen a pig run.

The sons of officials he crippled a while ago all behaved this way.

These old men were experiencing this situation for the first time. After pointing in a direction, they used their canes to walk home.

Lu Weiguo didn't even say thank you, and pulled Zhao Jiahuan into the car.

I pressed the accelerator hard a few times.

Every household that passed by knew that a car was going to find the village chief.

He even deliberately wandered around the village.

We arrived at the village branch.

Almost the entire village knew about it.

A young man, dressed in a very stylish car, went to talk to the village chief.

Lu Weiguo looked with satisfaction at the villagers watching the commotion behind the tractor.

He took fresh fruits and vegetables from the back of the container and swaggered into the village branch office.

"My God, is this the village chief's relative?"

"No way, my uncle doesn't have any relatives that are that rich."

"What does he do? He's so rich. Our village doesn't even have a bicycle, but he has a tractor."

"Grandpa Village Chief is showing off his connections! How come he knows a capitalist?!"
