Weihai County, Animal Husbandry Bureau.
Mingkang, who had a very weathered look on his face, walked towards the cowshed with a pile of haystacks on his shoulders and a weed in his mouth, shirtless.
Under the scorching sun, he was shaken so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.
'bang'
Throwing the haystack into the cowshed where gadflies were flying all over the sky, he sat down panting.
"Mingkang."
A call came from a distance.
Mingkang stood up: "Deputy Bureau."
A gray-haired man shouted from a distance: "Have you finished feeding the cows in your area?"
"not yet."
Mingkang looked back and saw that in this factory covering an area of more than ten acres, there were at least a hundred beef cattle waiting to be fed, with a bitter look on his face. How many more haystacks need to be moved
"Then you finish feeding and go to the pig farm as soon as possible. These pigs will be slaughtered in early July. There is a shortage of manpower now, so you must hurry up."
"I'm not responsible for the pig farm either."
"What are you talking about? Just go if you are told."
"But my cows haven't been fed yet."
"Then you should finish feeding quickly before going."
"As you said, deputy director, I am responsible for two hundred beef cattle. I am not even given a trolley. I have to move haystacks by myself every day. I have to move thousands of haystacks a day. Every morning, I move it to evening. After feeding the cows, it will be evening."
The deputy director's face darkened: "Go if you are told. Why are you talking so much?"
After saying that, the deputy bureau sneered and ridiculed: "Oh, so many people in the Animal Husbandry Bureau didn't complain, you are the only one complaining. Were all your former court officials so pampered? Haha, don't give up. Soak yourself in the urine to show yourself, now you are still a piece of shit. Don’t work? Don’t want to work? Then get out, no one is asking you to stay here.”
A trace of bitterness appeared on Mingkang's face. The mute couldn't express the pain of eating Coptis chinensis. He just said: "But the deputy bureau. The work others do is not as heavy as mine. The new Kyushu stipulates that the work day is only eight hours. The other people in the Animal Husbandry Bureau It's over in six hours a day. It's just my job of ten hours a day."
"The work is all the same. It's the ability of others to work quickly. You used to be a high-ranking official. You have never experienced hardship. Do you still want to complain?"
"The bureau has equipped them all with motorcycles, but I am the only manpower."
Mingkang points to the point, but does not explain clearly. But in fact, everyone knew very well that they wanted to punish him and deliberately punished him. Make things difficult for him everywhere.
It's too complicated to talk about here, because the Animal Husbandry Bureau is from Du Tianzi's faction, and Mingkang is from the imperial court faction. It's perfectly normal to put each other down. But everyone has a tacit understanding, that is, everyone pretends not to know, and all the truth will not be brought to the table.
Therefore, when Mingkang was wronged, he had to endure it. Wait for a chance to turn around.
The deputy director sneered: "Isn't this training you to be a good official? Only by enduring hardships can you become a great person, right? Haha. The bureau is also kind-hearted and will give you special treatment. You still want to say, and... complain."
Mingkang's chest rose and fell rapidly, and he sighed: "Okay."
The deputy director smiled and swaggered away.
"well,"
Mingkang sighed deeply, feeling worried. But there is no way to blame others. I can only say that my luck is really bad.
Logically speaking, Mingkang must be at least a Beijing official now.
Mingkang played a key role in kidnapping Xun Jiayuan and defecting to the Kyushu Party. Without Mingkang's internal cause, Wang Yuanxiang and his troops would not have been able to enter the inner palace, and there would be no way to force Xun Jiayuan into the palace.
It can be said that the imperial faction was directly promoted by Wang Yuanxiang and Mingkang.
Who is Wang Yuanxiang
Wang Yuanxiang was the leader of the Forbidden Army who took Li Zhen to Beijing to face the Holy Spirit and escorted him all the way. At that time, Mingkang was the general person in charge, but Wang Yuanxiang had to listen to him.
As a result, after the completion of the matter, Wang Yuanxiang is already the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eastern Military Region, although his rank does not seem to reach the top in one step. However, we also have to look at the geographical location. Wang Yuanxiang is in Dongzhou! It's in the Eastern Military District.
And what about Mingkang
One wrong step, every wrong step.
He doesn't know how to fight, so naturally he can't enter the military area. It is natural to choose the governing officials.
After the establishment of the new Kyushu government, there was a major reshuffle across the country. Mingkang also passed the exam and joined the Jiuzhou Party. But when choosing to take office, Mingkang analyzed the situation and felt that agriculture and animal husbandry should be the key development directions of New Kyushu in the future. Because the industry is already stable, it is less prone to change. The only industries prone to big changes are agriculture and animal husbandry.
So he resolutely entered the Animal Husbandry Bureau system.
Never imagined.
The political struggle between the three factions in the new Kyushu government has turned from covert to overt. Everyone started to occupy each other's territory.
Among the parties, they are frantically snatching away various institutions and systems within the country.
No one from the court could fight against Xun Shifei and Du Taiping, so they wanted to find another way to seize military power. Put all your energy into seizing military power.
But in fact it makes no sense at all. In fact, New Kyushu's army no longer has much power, and is more inclined to be a deterrent-like presence, because no country dares to easily contact New Kyushu, so the army is just placed there.
The battle for internal control systems is what matters.
Mingkang saw this clearly, but the factions in the court did not. So when Mingkang entered the Animal Husbandry Bureau, the Animal Husbandry Bureau and the Agriculture Bureau were all under the control of Xun Shifei's party members.
Originally the Dongzhou Animal Husbandry Bureau, he was demoted along the way, and Mingkang was reduced to the Animal Husbandry Bureau of Weihai County. Within a few days, he became a coolie and the most basic employee of the Weihai County Animal Husbandry Bureau. You can't blame him for this, it can only be said to be bad luck.
But Mingkang has an obsession in his heart. He believes that he will always turn around.
Because he was once an important figure in the imperial faction, and as long as he did not withdraw from the system, it was absolutely impossible for the imperial faction to leave him alone.
The people from Weihai County Animal Husbandry Bureau will naturally use various means to force him out. It is best if Mingkang can say "I quit." It's a pity that they underestimated Mingkang's tenacity. No matter how much they tortured him, he would never say those words.
Silently carrying the haystacks, Mingkang gritted his teeth.
"One day I will turn over!"
“…”
A few hours later, Mingkang sat on a haystack to rest. The director of the Animal Husbandry Bureau and other people hurried over, and this time, walking in front of them were a few people in formal clothes with serious expressions.
These people look good at first sight. The director of the Animal Husbandry Bureau and others were just smiling on the sidelines.
Mingkang saw this group of people running towards him and stood up silently.
His expression remained unchanged, neither sick nor slow, nor humble nor arrogant.
He just watched those people approaching in silence and murmured: "It's time to turn over."
“…”
