Zhang Wen's name

Chen Yanshi felt like the whole world had abandoned him lately. Today, Chen Hai called to say he was currently planting trees on the front lines. Chen Yanshi felt like the sky had fallen. He immediately dialed Gao Yuliang's number, trying to use their past relationship to persuade him to let Chen Hai off the hook.

"Hey, Yuliang, this is Chen Yanshi. Can you let Chen Hai off the hook? He's an honest and hardworking kid. He's never suffered so much. He called me yesterday asking me to plead for him."

Gao Yuliang remained silent for two minutes after hearing the call before replying.

"Mr. Chen, now that you're retired, please stop interfering with our work arrangements. I didn't suppress Chen Hai; it was just a normal job transfer."

Chen Yanshi was very excited after hearing this.

"Yuliang, I've seen that appointment document too. Wasn't he supposed to be the team leader at the desertification control center? How come he's suddenly a frontline worker?"

Although Gao Yuliang was annoyed with Chen Yanshi, he still patiently explained.

"Old Chen, please don't get so agitated. We arranged for him to participate in afforestation to train him. If he doesn't even participate in the basic work, how can we make him a team leader? How can we expect the grassroots staff to respect him?"

Chen Yanshi was very annoyed by Gao Yuliang's nonsense.

"Yuliang, can we transfer Chen Hai back first? Hou Liangping isn't on the front line, so we can have Hou Liangping learn first and then teach my Chen Hai."

Gao Yuliang sneered, "Is your Chen Hai any more noble or something?"

"Old Chen, I don't agree with what you're saying. They were all assigned there at the same time, so how can you transfer Chen Hai back? What do you think the grassroots staff will think?"

Chen Yanshi was very annoyed to see that Gao Yuliang was unyielding.

"Gao Yuliang, don't forget how I treated you when you first started working. Do you think you've lived up to my kindness in recognizing your potential?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Yuliang stopped pretending with him.

"Chen Yanshi, over the years you've meddled in so many things in my name, and no one has targeted you yet. Do you think it's because you have powerful connections? It's just that I've turned a blind eye to your behavior because you used to treat me well. Otherwise, you would have been retaliated against long ago."

Chen Yanshi fell silent upon hearing this; of course he understood these things.

"Gao Yuliang, even if I'm using your name, I'm doing practical things for the people. I haven't taken a single penny for myself."

Gao Yuliang was speechless. How could this old man be so shameless?

"Chen Yanshi, although you didn't accept money, you can't deny that so many people gave you flowers and plants. You, a retired chief prosecutor, surely know the value of those things."

Chen Yanshi was a little nervous after hearing this. Of course he knew about these things. These things didn't have a fixed price, so there was nothing that could be done about them. But if someone took advantage of the situation, he would be breaking the rules.

"Yuliang, those are all worthless things, let's not talk about this anymore. What do you think of my suggestion?"

Hearing that the old man was still unwilling to give up, Gao Yuliang decided not to continue arguing with him.

"Chen Yanshi and Chen Hai are prepared to stay there for life. Unless I retire one day, they can forget about being transferred."

Chen Yanshi was shocked. Was it really worth it for a classmate?

"Gao Yuliang, you can't do this. Is it worth it for Wang Xiaoli? Besides, Chen Hai is your student too. How can you be so heartless? Furthermore, Wang Xiaoli only lost her life, but Chen Hai will have to stay there for the rest of his life. This is not fair."

"I know Chen Yanshi and Wang Xiaoli. She is a very outstanding person. She believed Chen Hai and provided him with evidence, yet Chen Hai failed to protect her. I think it is reasonable to send Chen Hai there to plant trees and create forests."

After saying this, Gao Yuliang slammed down the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yuliang called his secretary.

"Xiao Li, keep an eye on Chen Hai for me lately. If Hou Liangping gets some training for half a year, he can be assigned to a position at the Youth Palace."

"Okay, Secretary Gao, I'll arrange it right away."

"Also, don't give me Chen Yanshi's phone number anymore."

"OK."

Chen Yanshi held the phone that had just been hung up, his face filled with anger.

"Gao Yuliang, you ungrateful wretch! Would you be where you are today without my help back then?"

After saying this, Chen Yanshi swept everything off the table.

...................................................

Office of the Secretary of the Hantong Provincial Party Committee.

"Little Bai, do you remember what day it is today?"

Bai Jingwen was a little confused. What kind of day could today be? It wasn't anything special.

"Secretary Sha, I don't quite understand. Is today Wang Xiaohong's birthday?"

Sha Ruijin shook his head after hearing this.

Bai Jingwen was speechless. Why the hell do you always make me guess? Am I some kind of riddle?

"Secretary Sha, you know I'm rather slow-witted, so just tell me directly."

Sha Ruijin wasn't teasing Bai Jingwen; instead, he spoke with a hint of excitement.

"Today is the day that old fellow Chen Yanshi is going to the cadre sanatorium to give a self-criticism. Go and call him to inform him, don't forget."

Bai Jingwen was speechless. It seemed that Chen Yanshi really hated him to the core.

"Okay, Secretary Sha, I'll go and inform them right away."

After returning to his office, Bai Jingwen immediately dialed Chen Yanshi's number.

Chen Yanshi was very excited when he saw that it was Secretary Bai calling. Could it be that Sha Ruijin was finally willing to see him?

"Xiaobai, what's up with your call? Is Xiaojinzi here to see me? I'll be right there."

Bai Jingwen was speechless for a moment after hearing this. You old wall lamp really can't tell the difference between the king and the queen.

"Comrade Chen Yanshi, I'm here to inform you that you need to go to the cadre sanatorium to make a self-criticism."

Chen Yanshi's face darkened immediately upon hearing this.

"Xiaobai, you must be joking. I haven't received any punishment notice."

"Chen Yanshi, who's joking with you? Do you think the provincial party committee's orders are anything special? Last time, they only refrained from issuing a written document to protect your reputation. You'd better hurry up and go, or you know the consequences. You don't want your son Chen Hai to have an even worse life, do you?"

Chen Yanshi reluctantly agreed. Damn Bai Jingwen, how could you be so ruthless?

"Alright, Xiaobai, I'll write a self-criticism tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jingwen didn't waste any more words with him and hung up the phone.

Chen Yanshi was furious when he heard that he had to go to the cadre sanatorium to make a self-criticism. This was just making him lose face.

While Chen Yanshi was still throwing a tantrum, the cadre sanatorium was bustling with activity.

"I heard that Chen Yanshi is coming to give a self-criticism tomorrow. Do you think he can handle it?"

"Who cares if he lives or dies? He used to have Gao Yuliang protecting him, and he always stood on the moral high ground pointing fingers at us."

"That's true. He keeps bringing us reports without any evidence. I've disliked him for a long time."

"You mean Secretary Sha doesn't care about punishing Chen Yanshi like this? He's his adoptive father."

"You wouldn't know this, but this order was given by Secretary Sha."

"It can't be that bad, he's still his adoptive father."

"You don't understand. That old guy Chen Yanshi is always acting like he's old and condescending. Secretary Sha has been annoyed with him for a long time. Last time, the Dafeng Factory gasoline incident almost got all of us Handong officials fired."

"Alright, let's settle our scores and avenge our grudges tomorrow."

"We'll do as you say. We've had our eye on this old man for a long time. He escaped a lot when he was hospitalized last time, and now he's acting all high and mighty. Don't blame us for being impolite."
