Since being punished, Liu Jin, who was already ranked last among the deputy directors, has become more and more idle.

Mr. Zhou advised him to take this opportunity to read more books to enrich his theoretical knowledge. Although Liu Jincai graduated from middle school, his education level is not low. However, what he learned was mainly technical knowledge, and his foundation in political theory was a little weaker. As an administrative cadre, the theoretical foundation is very important.

Liu Jincai has always listened to Mr. Zhou's words.

So Mr. Zhou hugged him a stack of tomes, such as "Capital", "Political Economy", "Dialectical Materialism and Historical Materialism", "History of the Development of the World Proletarian Movement", and so on.

Liu Jincai was stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

In the blink of an eye, in October, Liu Jun had learned the whole book of "Hamlet", and he didn't dare to say that he had memorized it backwards, and there was no problem in reading it through. To be honest, the little English foundation in the previous life, that is, it could help a little at the beginning, didn't work at all after ten days. It is equivalent to starting from scratch, and even Liu Jun himself did not expect such rapid progress. Originally, it was expected that it would take at least two years to barely finish "Hamlet", but I didn't expect it to take only one year. In particular, if you don't worry about being too shocking, you can speak in English.

"Learning English starts from a child".

Hehe, that seems to make sense.

Liu Junzheng was secretly proud, and without being wary, Mr. Liu took out an English book thicker than "Hamlet" and stuffed it into his hand.

maygod！

It turned out to be Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.

Yoo Jun was dizzy for a while.

Who knew that the matter was far from over, and the next book that Mr. brought out was a veritable tome - the Russian version of the original "War and Peace".

"Uncle, I'...... I don't speak as good Russian as I do in English...... This...... What's the ...... of this "War and Peace"? Too...... That's too profound, isn't it? ”

Yoo Joon stammered his defense.

Mr. Zhou smiled narrowly.

"It's because of your poor Russian language skills that I have to give you an extra weight. It's called whipping a fast cow! ”

Even drop god! Is there such an unfortunate reborn person in this world as me?

Yoo Joon is completely dizzy!

"Xiaojun, ask your father to make an appointment with Yucheng to see when they have time, come to Uncle for a visit, Uncle has something to discuss with them."

"Ah...... Oh oh, okay. ”

Liu Junwu was so frustrated that he almost didn't hear what his husband said.

……

"This is an article I wrote, you two take a look, is it appropriate?"

Mr. Zhou took out a few pages of manuscript paper and gently handed them to Yan Yucheng.

This afternoon, Yan Yucheng was notified by Liu Jincai by phone, and rushed over the next day. Mr. Zhou had never taken the initiative to invite them to discuss matters before, and this time he was so cautious, it must be a big deal.

Liu Jun stretched his neck and glanced at it, and saw that what was written on the manuscript paper was "On Seeking Truth from Facts", which was Mr. 's beautiful thin gold Xiaoka.

Why did you suddenly start writing a review article?

Liu Jun scratched his head, a little puzzled.

Liu Jincai leaned over and watched with Yan Yucheng.

Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai nodded while watching, glancing at each other from time to time, revealing a look of admiration. To be honest, although Liu Jun is a human being in two lifetimes, he still doesn't know much about this kind of purely theoretical article. Peeking at the side, I just think that the font is beautiful, the words are smooth, and the content is clear, but I don't know much. Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai appreciated it so much, and it was expected that they must have done an excellent job.

The article is neither long nor short, a total of seven pages, about 2,000 words.

Yan Yucheng turned to the last page, couldn't help but be stunned, and looked up at Mr. with Liu Jincai, very puzzled.

But it turned out that the signature was the names of Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai.

"Teacher, ...... are you?"

"The punishment you carried should have been three months, right? Jin Cai's words basically stood aside. ”

Mr. Zhou said slowly.

Yan Yucheng couldn't help but smile bitterly. Dad stepped aside, why wasn't he? From the number one leader of the commune to the seventh leader in the district, the person who was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground suddenly became an idle shopkeeper, and the loneliness and helplessness in his heart can be imagined.

"During this time, I read newspapers every day, "People's Daily" and "N Province Daily", which are all must-read. Through this period of observation, I feel that the wind direction may be changing......"

Mr. Zhou continued to speak without hurrying, and his tone was as smooth as usual.

Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai were very excited.

"Teacher, tell us how the wind will change?"

He asked "how will the wind direction change" rather than "will the wind direction really change", which shows that Yan Yucheng is still full of confidence in his teacher.

"The patriarch is back at work."

Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai both nodded. They know that.

On 17 July 1977, the Third Plenary Session of the 10 th CPC Central Committee adopted a resolution to restore the chief designer to an important post held by the Central Committee.

Such a major event has been reported in the newspapers.

"He is opposed to the current theoretical approach."

"Well, we know that."

Yan Yucheng's excited expression faded a little.

"The letters written by this veteran to the party Central Committee on October 10 last year and April 10 this year have been printed and distributed to county-level units."

"That's different."

Mr. Zhou said firmly.

Yan Yucheng was a little excited: "What's the difference?" ”

"At the time of writing these two letters, he had not yet been reinstated, and now that he has been reinstated, it is telling. Looking at the newspapers recently, there seem to be some different voices, although it is not yet the mainstream, after all, it is a change. ”

Liu Jun nodded secretly.

In the end, Mr. Zhou is a theoretical worker engaged in the study of party history, and he is very keen in this regard. You must know that the commentators' articles of the party newspaper are sometimes equivalent to political weather vanes.

"That's why I'm writing this on behalf of the two of you."

Liu Jincai asked, "Mr. Zhou, why are you in the name of the two of us?" ”

Yan Yucheng glared at Liu Jincai, blaming him for not asking.

Mr. Zhou is a "reactionary academic authority" who has not taken off his hat, and he is not asking for trouble by writing such an article?

Mr. Zhou smiled: "If you think it is feasible, I will send it out." ”

Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai looked at each other, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

Liu Jun stood up and said, "Uncle Zhou, which newspaper do you want to vote for?" I'll send it for you. ”

"Jun-chan!"

Liu Jincai shouted loudly.

The two of them hadn't made up their minds yet, and the little boy had come to make trouble again.

In fact, Liu Jun has long had this meaning, and he wants to write something. However, his theoretical foundation is insufficient, and he does not dare to write for fear of making people laugh. Besides, I feel that this time is a bit difficult to grasp.

In Liu Jun's memory, it seemed that it would not be until the second half of 1978 that the "People's Daily" would publish the famous commentator's article -- "Practice is the Only Criterion for Testing Truth."

At this time, I don't know what the consequences will be.

Liu Jincai inadvertently transferred to the official career, this small change is just that, after all, it is a very local thing, and the impact will not be great. The "Great Debate on the Standard of Truth" is a super event that will affect the direction of China's history in the next few decades, and it would be a little chilling to think about it if it was triggered in advance by myself, an inexplicable reborn person who was a grassroots child in the present life.

In essence, Yoo Jun is the kind of cautious civilian surname.

Now that Mr. Zhou believes that the time is ripe, Yoo Jun believes in his vision.

"Mr. Zhou, are you going to wait a little longer?"

Liu Jincai hesitated.

"Why?"

Mr. Zhou asked quietly rhetorically.

"This ...... Wouldn't it be safer to wait for the situation to become clearer? ”

Mr. Zhou nodded, turned to Yan Yucheng, and his tone was still light: "Yucheng, what is your opinion?" ”

Yan Yucheng groaned and said very carefully: "I don't think it's impossible to wait any longer......

"Well, that's fine. I'm just going to help you with ideas, and you'll have to take the ideas yourself. ”

Mr. Zhou was calm as usual, but there was a slight look of disappointment in his eyes.

Liu Jun lifted the teapot, refilled each of them with some tea, and said, "Uncle Zhou, I read "History of the Five Dynasties" today and saw the story of Li Cunqiao...... After the Battle of Jiahe, the Later Tang Dynasty obviously had an advantage, and it can be said that the situation was very good, why did Zhuang Zong take the risk of leading a light cavalry assault on the beams? ”

Liu Junlao likes to talk about Li Cunqing, but he is not particularly partial to him. But there is indeed a lot to learn from this person.

"When it is in its heyday, the heroes of the world will not compete with it; and its decline, dozens of people are trapped, and the country is destroyed, laughing for the world. ”

This is Ouyang Xiu's summary of Li Cunmiao.

An emperor who must face the enemy in every battle, an emperor who almost wins every battle, an emperor who is lucky enough to be invincible in the world and dies in the middle of the arrow, can there be no story to tell?

"Wealth and danger are begging."

Mr. Zhou smiled faintly and glanced at Director Yan and Liu Jincai.

"Everything must be done until you are very sure, and good things belong to others."

The faces of the two directors suddenly turned red, and they were so cute!

Mr. Zhou was still unsatisfied, touched Liu Jun's head, and said with a smile: "If you can apply what you have learned, you can really teach your children." ”

Yoo Jun only had a wry smile in his heart. That is, Uncle Yan and his father want to be replaced by someone else, which is hateful. Even if you are young and can't afford to hate, at least it's not a good thing. After all, Liu Jun's psychological age is forty years old, and he can deceive others, but he can't deceive himself.

In the future, we have to keep a low profile.

Xu was ridiculed by the old and young master and apprentice, Director Yan was unconvinced, and couldn't help asking: "Teacher, do you dare to publish this article in the newspaper?" ”

Mr. Zhou narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "If there is a newspaper that dares to send it, you must always try." I have an old colleague who is now an editor of the provincial newspaper, and he is also a ...... who is not afraid of things";
