Rebirth in the 60s: A Path to Counterattack-Chapter 303 - 300~. Ruthless Move, Compromise, Resentment
However, in this obvious state of oversupply, Liu Shouren was still disappointed to find that the position he most wanted to recruit for, the director of women’s affairs, was completely vacant, with not even half a candidate applying.
After searching repeatedly to no avail, the miserable Liu Shouren had no choice but to temporarily take on this role himself.
No wonder they say that great rewards attract courage!
Offering a salary of two hundred yuan a month, in less than a day thirty-something letters of intent were received.
In the end, Jiangg Yun, Director Jiangg, took office, far more impartial and assertive than the rumors suggested.
Damn, damn, damn!
Isn’t this a plan to eliminate us all?
Isn’t it?
Isn’t it?
Liu Shouren glared, no wonder he managed to make a name for himself in family planning; he was indeed ruthless and fierce!
Jiangg Yun, hearing this, became serious: "Comrade Liu Shouren, we are now contributing to the country’s family planning work. As the head of the village, you have the responsibility to cooperate with me to the greatest extent. If even you have such a perfunctory attitude, when can Liu family’s village seriously get a grip on family planning work?
Such excellence in all aspects, once nationally renowned, you and our Liu family’s village, are you truly content to stumble year after year over mere family planning issues?"
"Of course not, but..."
"There are no buts, supporting the family planning department in managing this vital task, preventing even a single extra birth in Liu family’s village brigade is an unshirkable responsibility for me as the women’s director.
And Captain Liu, you must unconditionally cooperate with me.
Otherwise, I have reason to suspect that the reason Liu family’s village brigade has a high birthrate of extra births in recent years is due to your deliberate connivance!" Jiangg Yun frowned, cutting off Liu Shouren’s unfinished words with a cold voice.
"So, our formidable Captain Liu was defeated in bitterness?" Shuzhen teased, her voice full of mockery.
"Getting monitored every month, how can I have the audacity to mock me? I’m quite amazed at that!" Having had his sore spot pressed, even a doting brother like Liu Shouren couldn’t help but retort.
Shuzhen remained silent, she didn’t want this either.
Yet the nagging prowess of Comrade Jiangg Yun was too potent!
With a cold face, repeating over and over about how birth planning benefits the nation and the people, if you don’t cooperate, it’s as if you are letting down the party and the country.
What else could she do?
Of course, she would actively cooperate, just for some peace![roe nose throat palindrome explanation, meaning seek peace of mind] After all her son was several years away from adulthood.
Ultimately, Liu Shuzhen, who made positive contributions to national development, is not just any soft pushover for others to step on!
"With Jiangg carrying the banner of national policy, openly proclaiming his intention to give his all to the country’s family planning cause. Your older brother, he had no choice. Our village’s family planning work is already difficult, after all, if Jiangg Yun really reported this as you conniving, it would definitely stick. Even her own sisters-in-law and cousins could be denounced without any qualms, filing a report or whatever would probably not cause a shadow of stress for her." Thinking that her sister-in-law had been teased to the breaking point by her husband, Wu Yinghong quickly played her role of peacemaker.
Her hurried explanation amused Shuzhen, who chuckled: "Saozi, I’m not angry, you don’t have to cover for my brother that eagerly. I know you care for him, even if I took it to heart, I would never act against him in front of you. After all, two fists can’t fight four hands, however tough I am, I’m still afraid of being ganged up on."
Wu Yinghong blushed at the teasing, gave Shuzhen an irritated glance: "Who cares about him? I care for you! After all, you’re the one determined to have more kids, yet you’re running into such a serious and uncompromising women’s director."
Of course, her words were more satire than concern.
After all, no matter how formidable Jiangg Yun is, she still can’t twist broader powers can’t she?
With such people in power behind, whether her sister-in-law wanted to have more kids or even eight or ten more, who could possibly stop her?
The notion of policy fairness is nice but in reality, Wu Yinghong could only chuckle.
"Why worry, she has policy and I have a brother. In any case, my brother is always the one protecting his sister in any situation." Shuzhen smiled, not at all rattled by the taunting or intimidation.
Liu Shouren was helpless: "To drag the illustrious and self-sacrificing Captain Liu who actively supports family planning into this mess, are you really going to undermine me like this, little sister?"
Shuzhen laughed: "If that day comes, would you really want me to, brother?"
Liu Shouren surrendered, a sister he doted on himself, even if being outdone, he would keep pampering with a smile on his face!
Just as Jiangg Yun envisioned, once the penalty for extra births was tied to employment, the team members of Liu family’s village brigade, who previously didn’t mind penalties or were financially unafflicted, finally became somewhat alert.
After all, the salaries in the Number One Scholar Village series were not low, formal employees earned nearly a hundred yuan monthly with dividends, and revenue from home farming, breeding, and so on.
Although a fine of three times the amount isn’t trivial, in the eyes of the well-funded members, it’s really not that big of a deal.
Paying a fine of two to three thousand to have a son capable of carrying on the family name and business, many felt that was worth it.
Fines and work, these two things are like cash versus cash cows.
With many avenues of income and deep-seated beliefs in having many children as bringing many blessings, even being publicly shamed or fined massively couldn’t dim their enthusiasm for having more children.
But losing a job meant cutting down their cash cow considerably!
Still clamoring about repeated warnings and severe instances considering withdrawal of their shares and such.
This, this is practically life-threatening.
When the news first broke, the members were practically dumbfounded, weren’t they?
Just kidding, their captain always prioritized economic development, then education, and healthcare, working hard to raise their cultural qualities, fiercely cracking down on gambling and debauchery.
As for family planning, that was always taken lightly.
In everyone’s eyes, it all showed through steadily increasing fines, there was never talk of reports or enforcement in his book.
So now, even though in the village those two words "family planning" stirred tensions and anxiety, everyone firmly believed their good captain was innocent.
It was all that Jiangg woman’s trickery!
Through gossip, Jiangg Yun’s previously mixed reputation was finally just ruined.
The two families previously enforced were especially bitter, casually throwing rotten vegetables or eggs was basically routine!
