Seeing the 4.0,000 yuan on her phone, Miao Lijuan was stunned for a long time.
Other than the money he had to report to the hospital, the remaining 6,000 yuan was equivalent to her monthly salary.
“Director Lin, you can’t do this. 1 can’t take this money.”
“It’s fine. This isn’t public money. It’s my own money. Just take it. Don’t feel burdened.”
“My own money…”
Du Yuming and Miao Lijuan were both surprised.
He was just the director of the Office of Poverty Alleviation. How could he have so much money?
If he was corrupt, he wouldn’t be so generous.
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you spending so much money?”
Du Yuming felt a little embarrassed and said with a cold face.
“You can think whatever you want,” Lin Yi said impatiently.
“Anyways, just talk less. Let me have some peace and quiet.”
Du Yuming frowned. “You’d better understand the situation. This is our agricultural research institute. It’s my territory. You have to listen to me.”
“Department Director Du, calm down. Brother Lin didn’t mean that.”
Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel, Li Sijin hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.
She came here to study. If they quarreled with the leader, they would be kicked out.
“Then what does he mean by this?” Du Yuming questioned coldly.
“Let me tell you, all of you can leave now. I’ll report this to Old Wang. Pack your things and go back!”
Du Yuming did not want to receive Lin Yi, Li Sijin, and the others in the first place. He was only forced to do so because of Wang Yunjiang.
Now that such a thing had happened, he held the moral high ground.
Even Wang Yunjiang could not say anything. Not only did this save his time and energy, but he could also make the other party owe him a favor.
It was killing two birds with one stone.
“Well…”
Li Sijin was stunned. She did not expect things to turn out this way.
If she went back like this, she would definitely be reprimanded.
Creak…
Just as Lin Yi was about to speak, the laboratory door was pushed open and a man and woman walked in.
The man was old and his hair was half white. He was at least in his sixties.
However, the woman beside him was outstanding. She was wearing black leggings and a plush black coat. Coupled with her long wavy hair, she looked like a mature woman. If the size in front of her was larger, she would be no different from Tian Yan.
“Director Chen, Secretary An, you’re here.”
Seeing the two of them enter, Du Yuming’s expression improved drastically. Not only did he smile, but he also bowed.
The Director Chen he was talking about was Chen Shi, the director of Bingcheng Agricultural Research Institute.
The woman next to him, named An Ning, was Chen Shi’s secretary and also his old comrade’s granddaughter. Due to personal connections and her professional qualifications, she was assigned to work by his side.
“What happened?” Chen Shi asked.
“These people came from Dongsan County in Yuhang City to study, but they don’t follow the rules at all. They shattered our imported experimental equipment and even quarreled with me. I plan to end this session and send them back.”
“This is nonsense!”
“It’s indeed a little overboard.” Du Yuming said.
“It’s fine if they don’t act according to the rules, but they even look so self-righteous. I really didn’t know they would do this. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn’t have let them come!”
Miao Lijuan shook her head, feeling sorry for Lin Yi and Li Sijin.
It was indeed their fault for breaking the item, but they had already lost money, so there was no need to go overboard.
It was not easy for him to make this trip. It had not even been a day, and he wanted to chase them away. Director Du had more or less gone overboard.
“I meant that you’re the one who is spouting nonsense!”
“Huh?”
Du Yuming and Miao Lijuan looked at Chen Shi in surprise.
The old director had always had a good temper. Why was he so angry today?
Moreover, he even pointed the finger at Du Yuming. Something was wrong.
An Ning subconsciously looked at Lin Yi a few times, as if she wanted to see some clues from him.
However, the more she looked at him, the more she felt like she could not see through him.
“Director Chen, I’ve always done things according to the rules. Did I do anything wrong?”
“You can leave first. I’ll deal with you later!”
Du Yuming was so frightened that he shivered. He felt a little wronged. He didn’t do anything, so why wasn’t he being dealt with?
Du Yuming and Tan Songming walked out dejectedly.
Chen Shi walked up to Lin Yi enthusiastically and grabbed his hand.
“Director Lin, I’m really sorry. I’ve been on a business trip in Fengtian for the past few days and didn’t rush back in time to welcome you. Please don’t hold this against me.”
“No, no. This matter was already quite troublesome for you guys. You’re making me feel embarrassed.”
“It’s what we should do.” Chen Shi said.
“Also, I’ll apologize to you for what happened with Du Yuming just now. I’ll definitely deal with it seriously after this.”
Lin Yi nodded. “Indeed, you have to deal with him. A person like him who prioritizes benefits will be a black sheep if he stays with you. It’ll be good for you to get rid of him as soon as possible.”
“Don’t worry, Director Lin. 1’11 definitely give you a proper explanation.”
Miao Lijuan, who was standing at the side, was stunned.
Director Chen was an academician of the Huaxia Academy of Engineering. Director Lin was at most a deputy department director. There was a world of difference between their administrative levels.
So, why was Director Chen talking to him with such an attitude?
‘Did you get it the wrong way round?’
“I won’t bother with Du Yuming’s matter. We’re here to learn new planting techniques. We want to improve the alkaline soil in the county and plant some alkaline-resistant crops. 1’11 have to trouble Director Chen to arrange these lessons for us.” Lin Yi said.
“As for the fees, you don’t have to worry. Just follow the normal procedures. Just give us a quotation for the expenses and fees.”
“You’re being too polite. Who knows, we might even beg you in the future. When the time comes, you can give me the green light to make up for it.”
Lin Yi was not a pretentious person and smiled.
“Then 1 won’t stand on ceremony with you. If you need any help in the future, just let me know.”
For a long time, the last thing Lin Yi wanted to owe was a favor, because there was no way to repay it.
But this time, he didn’t stand on ceremony.
This was because there was no need for him to repay this debt. It would be pinned on Liang Ruoxu’s head.
He could compensate her later, but how exactly wasn’t something he would openly discuss with outsiders.
“Then it’s a done deal.”
Chen Shi looked at his watch. “It’s already noon. Let’s go eat first. The specific work will start in the afternoon. It’s not easy for you to come here, so there’s no hurry.”
“I’ll listen to Director Chen’s arrangements.”
The group of people walked out one after another and saw the restless Du Yuming at the door.
“Director Chen…”
“Go back to the office and pack your things. You don’t have to come over in the afternoon..”
