The red heading at the top of the document looks like a glaring wound.

Emergency Notice on Ensuring Spring Farming Production, Rectifying the County Transportation Market, and Strictly Prohibiting the Private Use of Official Vehicles.

Li Aiguo picked up the phone and dialed the number of an old acquaintance in the county transportation management office.

The phone rang for a long time before being answered impatiently.

"Feed?"

"Old Zhang, it's me, Li Aiguo."

"Oh, Director Li, what's the matter?" The other person's tone was somewhat distant.

Li Aiguo got straight to the point.

"I just received that document from your office. What's going on? Spring planting hasn't even started yet, why the blanket ban?"

I heard the sound of papers being turned over on the other end of the phone, followed by a very official-sounding reply.

"Director Li, this is a unified arrangement by the county. In order to prioritize the transportation of spring farming materials, we must allocate transportation capacity in advance."

"But we can't shut down all other businesses in the county!"

Li Aiguo has become quite popular.

"Stop it so easily? Doesn't that make people gossip behind their backs?"

The voice on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, then became even more abrupt.

"Director Li, this is a critical time. Personal interests must give way to collective interests. Who will take responsibility if important matters are delayed?"

"That's just sophistry! Have you no respect for contracts?!"

"Director Li, I have another meeting, so I'll leave now. Rules are rules, and everyone has to abide by them."

"Clatter".

The call was abruptly ended, leaving only a busy tone.

Li Aiguo gripped the microphone, his chest heaving violently, veins bulging on the back of his hand.

He sensed that something was wrong.

What a coincidence!

Lu Qingshan had just had a conflict with others when this document arrived from the county.

If no one is behind this, then Li Aiguo's name should be written backwards!

There was a knock on the office door.

"Please come in."

Gao Jianjun pushed open the door and entered, also holding the same document in his hand, with a heartbroken expression on his face.

"Manager, have you seen the notice from the county?"

Li Aiguo leaned back in his chair, remaining silent and simply watching him.

Gao Jianjun sat down opposite him and sighed.

"Oh, I just saw it too. This document came as a complete surprise, but we must firmly support the county's decision!"

He placed the document on the table and pointed at it with his finger.

"Manager, this document clearly states that the misuse of official vehicles is strictly prohibited!"

"Although our forestry farm has several of its own vehicles, they are essentially official vehicles. At this time, we must set an example, avoid causing trouble for the county, and absolutely avoid making any fundamental mistakes!"

Li Aiguo squinted his eyes.

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

Gao Jianjun seemed to have been waiting for these words for a long time. He immediately sat up straight, his face serious.

"Director, what I mean is, to prevent any comrades in our forestry farm from accidentally making mistakes, I propose that, starting today, we temporarily freeze all vehicle loan approvals for our forestry farm!"

"All applications must be discussed collectively by the venue committee! Special times call for special treatment!"

"In this way, we both responded to the county's call and protected our cadres—a win-win situation!"

"Look, I've already drafted the announcement. Please stamp it!"

Looking at Gao Jianjun's face, which was etched with selflessness, Li Aiguo understood perfectly.

That's a brilliant move to cut off the enemy's supply lines.

He's trying to completely block the last route Lu Qingshan could use to borrow vehicles from the forest farm!

But what could he say?

The official document was right there; every word Gao Jianjun said was based on regulations and principles.

If he opposes it, he is disregarding the overall situation and playing with the interests of the forest farm.

Li Aiguo remained silent for a long time, so long that Gao Jianjun could barely maintain his fake smile.

He finally spoke, his voice hoarse.

"Then... let's do it your way."

"The manager is brilliant!"

Gao Jianjun's face instantly lit up with joy, and he stood up.

"I'll keep the approval stamp for now, and return it to the logistics department once things have calmed down."

Having said that, he almost impatiently took the large brass seal that represented the authority to dispatch vehicles from Li Aiguo's helpless gaze.

……

Bad news kept coming in.

Lu Qingshan had just returned home from his vacation when he received a phone call.

The truck from the county transport team that was supposed to come won't be here today.

The reason given is policy-related.

Lu Qingshan hung up the phone and immediately rode his bike to find Zhou Baoguang.

"Section Chief Zhou, I saw on the vehicle dispatch schedule that it's on a shift basis."

"I'd like to borrow a few of the Jiefang trucks from the forest farm to transport a batch of mountain products."

Zhou Baoguang looked troubled, pulled him aside, and lowered his voice.

"Qingshan, you went back to your vacation after the meeting this morning, and now this matter... is difficult to handle."

He recounted the events of the morning meeting in detail.

"...Now the approval authority is in the hands of Deputy Director Gao. He has given a strict order that not a single vehicle can be lent out. I just tried to apply, and he rejected my application report directly, saying that timber transportation is not urgent and must wait until after spring planting."

Zhou Baoguang sighed with worry.

"This is clearly targeted at you!"

Lu Qingshan listened without showing any expression.

He simply nodded.

"I understand, thank you, Section Chief Zhou."

He had just turned around and returned home, pondering how to solve the transportation problem.

Li Erniu rushed in from outside in a great hurry, his face covered in sweat.

"Brother Qingshan! Something terrible has happened!"

"Something terrible has happened!"

Li Erniu ran up to him, panting heavily, and could barely speak.

"We...we collected mountain products in Hongshitun and Baihuatun. The past few days were so smooth that the goods at both sites...were piled up like mountains!"

"I just heard the weather forecast on the radio say that starting the day after tomorrow, the ground will thaw and temperatures will rise, resulting in three consecutive days of dampness!"

"So much stock, if it gets rained on and gets damp, it'll all be ruined!"

Lu Qingshan walked out of the room in silence. The pile of goods covered with tarpaulin in the yard, which looked like two huge grave mounds, was particularly conspicuous.

A dirt road outside the gate winds its way towards the county town.

The road was deserted, without a single soul in sight.

Not to mention trucks.

Rumors have already spread throughout the village.

"Have you heard? Lu Qingshan offended someone, and now his car is nowhere to be found!"

"I knew it! He's just a country bumpkin, climbing so fast, he was bound to fall sooner or later!"

"What are we going to do with our goods? He was so quick to take the money, but what if they can't be shipped out and rot in the village? Can he afford to compensate us?"

"Is he planning to run away?"

Various speculations, like fermenting mold, spread rapidly in the air of panic.

After Lu Qingshan finished dinner, several people were already standing at the gate of the courtyard.

Leading the group was the third uncle, who was using a cane.

Behind him followed several village representatives who had sold all their mountain produce to Lu Qingshan, their faces filled with anxiety and unease.

Upon seeing Lu Qingshan, all eyes immediately fell upon him.

Third Uncle took a step forward, his cane striking the ground with a dull thud.

He raised his head, looked at the young man he had always thought highly of, his lips moved, and after a long while, he finally spoke with difficulty.

"Green Mountain..."

You need to give everyone a straight answer.

"Can this thing... even be transported?"
