At six o'clock the next morning, Liu Ai and a group of people from Yili went to the Wuye Temple together.

On the way, Liu Ai felt that the atmosphere was not right, Yili's group of people was obviously divided into two factions, five or six people surrounded Chairman Zheng Junhuai, and the remaining seventeen or eighteen people mingled with Niu Gensheng.

It is obvious that among the grassroots cadres, Niu Gensheng's prestige is higher.

Liu Ai noticed a hint of jealousy flashing in Zheng Junhuai's eyes.

Yili found a local person to be a tour guide, and told everyone about the history and traditions of the Wuye Temple, mainly to talk about how the Wuye responded to their needs.

The temple of the Five Masters is dedicated to the Dragon King, which is actually a folk god, but later it was also rumored to be the incarnation of Manjushri Bodhisattva, and I don't know if it's true or not.

A big stage was set up in the temple, according to the tour guide, after the winter, basically every day in the singing of Jin opera, because the five masters love to watch the play, so the people who wish to burn incense and wear dragon robes for the five masters, will also invite the opera troupe to sing in the temple.

According to the guidance of the tour guide, Liu Ai silently made a wish in front of the fifth master, looked up and got up, but found that Niu Gensheng was arguing with a high-level Yili with a red face, and he could vaguely hear words such as "10,000 yuan" and "face".

Seeing Liu Ai coming, both of them lowered their voices, and Yili's high-level officials brushed their sleeves away, leaving Niu Gensheng alone to stand in place.

"Brother Niu, what's wrong?" Liu Ai said with concern.

Niu Gensheng was silent for a long time, and then smiled casually, "It's okay, trouble at work." ”

Liu Ai and Niu Gensheng are not familiar with each other after all, so it is not easy to ask too much.

As soon as they walked out of the temple gate, the two of them saw the Pajero that Niu Gensheng and Liu Ai were sitting in when they came, Niu Gensheng was stunned for a moment, with a painful expression on his face, and then pretended to be natural: "Let's go, let's take the middle bus." ”

Niu Gensheng took Liu Ai to the minibus where Yili was sitting in the middle floor, and his face sank like water.

Liu Ai didn't dare to ask more, but everyone could see that something very unpleasant had happened between Zheng Junhuai and Niu Gensheng, but he didn't know if this was the beginning of the unpleasant or the continuation of the unpleasantness.

When he arrived at the foot of Dailuoding Mountain, Niu Gensheng excused himself to have a bad waist and did not climb up, bought a pack of cigarettes in a nearby store, and sat alone on the stone bench at the bottom of the mountain and smoked one cigarette after another.

Liu Ai is an outsider, so naturally it is impossible to follow Yili's people to climb the top of the conch. Liu Ai walked up to Niu Gensheng and sat down, "Brother Niu, I just knew that you also smoke." ”

Niu Gensheng was stunned for a moment, and smiled dumbly, "Smoke occasionally, I used to smoke fiercely, but then I set a rule for the factory, no one is allowed to smoke in the factory, so I quit." ”

Liu Ai smiled: "Then why is it smoked again now?"

Niu Gensheng smiled lonely and didn't speak.

Liu Ai looked at Niu Gensheng: "Actually, I can also see that there is a contradiction between your chairman and you." But since you've been brothers for many years, wouldn't it be nice to make something clear to your face?"

Niu Gensheng cheered up: "Oh, how do you see it?"

Liu Ai pouted: "Fools can see it, and the quarrel between you and that man just now was very loud, 10,000 yuan or something." ”

Niu Gensheng paused for a moment and sighed: "We didn't quarrel just now, it was Chen Yongqing, the chairman of our company's labor union, and we were talking about donating money to the brother who had cancer." ”

Liu Ai said curiously: "Donate? Could it be that they forced you to donate 10,000 yuan, is it too much?"

Niu Gensheng smiled bitterly: "I took the initiative to donate 10,000 yuan, but I got into trouble." ”

Liu Ai's brain turned, and he immediately understood: "You donate more than the chairman!? Then you are miserable." ”

Niu Gensheng looked at Liu Ai and laughed at himself: "No wonder Lao Chen said that I am not wronged, even you understand the truth, I still can't see through it." ”

Niu Gensheng also held back for too long, and it was impossible to talk to the person next to him, and the girl in front of him may never meet again after saying goodbye today.

"I was a nurse bottle washing worker at the beginning, Brother Zheng came to the factory as a secretary, the factory was very small at that time, only a dozen people, he saw me work hard, step by step promoted me to today's position, is my benefactor, I am grateful to him. ”

"Back then, our brothers were working together, he was responsible for setting strategies and dealing with upper-level relations, and I was responsible for production and business. There was a big battle in the factory, and we moved the bunk to sleep in his office and didn't go home for a month. Later, the factory was divided, he lived downstairs in my house, and the two families ate together every day. ”

"At that time, the two of us had only one wish, that is, to make Yili the largest food factory in the whole autonomous region, and even in China, and then we got bigger and bigger, carried out the joint-stock reform, and went to the market, and today, our original wish can be regarded as a fulfillment. ”

"But I don't know when he started to be suspicious of me, maybe I thought it was too simple, and there were a lot of villains around him, who repeatedly sowed discord. The factory rewarded me with 180,000 yuan and asked me to buy a Santana, I felt that the workers in the factory went to work too far every day, so I used the 180,000 yuan to buy four other cars for the employees. ”

"Take Bai Yin's cancer this time as an example, Bai Yin is an old worker in the factory, he has been working with us since 83 years, and he has cancer, it is not that he can't be treated, but he has to pay for treatment, I took 10,000 yuan out, to be honest, I really don't care how much other people donate, I just think this is my brother, I can't watch him die. ”

"But I didn't expect that this would also become a crime, Xiao Yang, who lived with me last night, was also my old subordinate, and secretly told me last night to let me not be so public, and now many people around Lao Zheng are saying bad things about me. ”

"I said at the time, I don't understand, I've always been like this, and it has never changed. When you Yang Wenjun got married in 90, I lent you all my savings of 2,000 yuan to buy a house. Now that everyone is rich, can I just watch Bai Yin die?"

"If Lao Zheng has an opinion about me, you can point it out to your face or tell me directly, why do you want to listen to those villains talking in your ear? I just want to do something, I just want these old brothers who fight the world with us to live a good life, this is also wrong?"

"Some people have told me that it is easy to share hardships and hardships, but I didn't believe it before, but now... Alas... ”

Liu Ai listened to Niu Gensheng's words, both admired and speechless, admired that there are still people like Niu Gensheng who are righteous and squandered money, speechless, this person also doesn't know how to get along with the leader.

After listening to Niu Gensheng's words, Liu Ai felt that Zheng Junhuai was jealous of Niu Gensheng, and Niu Gensheng himself was at least half responsible.

Maybe the truth is as Niu Gensheng said, he has no objection, but what he did made the people below only know Niu Gensheng and not Zheng Junhuai.

It's good to say when you fight the world, but at that time, there were internal and external troubles, and it was natural to need Niu Gensheng, a fierce general, to charge into battle. But now that the world is unified, the cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooking, Niu Gensheng still doesn't know how to cultivate obscurity at this time, how can Zheng Junhuai not doubt him?
