Chapter 144 Changing the Map

After Gu Qingyu returned to Ping'an County after visiting Liu Zhengtao, the news of Luo Jinbei's arrest had already spread like wildfire in the county party committee compound and the family compound.

Luo Jinbei was arrested directly by the provincial national security department, without going through the county or city authorities.

Therefore, the Ping'an County Committee had no idea why Luo Jinbei was arrested, which made the entire county committee feel like they were facing a major enemy, wondering if innocent people would be affected. So when Gu Qingyu returned from Xinhu, she was pulled into Secretary Hu's office.

"Xiao Gu, you just came back from Xinhu. Have you heard any special news? Do you know what crime your Secretary Luo has committed?" Secretary Hu lowered his voice and asked Gu Qingyu a series of questions.

Gu Qingyu, on the other hand, was amused by Secretary Hu's frightened look. She said to him helplessly, "Secretary, what are you doing?"

"Hey, Xiao Gu, you just got back and you might not know that your Secretary Luo was suddenly arrested!"

"I heard about this in Xinhu! But why do you look so frightened when Secretary Luo was arrested?" Gu Qingyu asked Secretary Hu in confusion.

"Alas, they suddenly arrested someone out of the blue. Everyone is so confused right now. I wonder what's going on?"

Secretary Hu sighed as he said this, but his eyes kept staring at Gu Qingyu. Seeing him like this, what else could Gu Qingyu not understand?

Gu Qingyu guessed in his heart that, apart from the abducted people who needed to be further investigated by the public security personnel, this matter was basically settled, and he believed that there would be an internal notice in a few days.

So she waved at Secretary Hu and whispered the general outline of the matter into his ear.

Secretary Hu's eyes widened when he heard this. He had to forgive him for being an old man who was about to retire, but he still encountered such a thing. He didn't know what Luo Jinbei was thinking. It was really something he had never seen before!

After hearing what Gu Qingyu said, Secretary Hu finally put his mind at ease after the worry he had been having for the past two days.

Secretary Hu, having recovered from his shock, regained his usual composure. He warned Gu Qingyu, "Luo Jinbei is the head of your Agricultural Bureau after all. Now that he's been suddenly arrested, everyone in your bureau must be panicking. You must calm them down when you return."

"Don't worry, Secretary Hu! I will hold a department meeting when I get back and guarantee that you can settle the morale of the troops!" Gu Qingyu assured Secretary Hu.

"Now is the time for you young people to take the lead. You did a great job at the previous Canton Fair. Our entire county party committee team is looking forward to you continuing your efforts, creating more glories, and striving to reach a higher level!" Secretary Hu encouraged Gu Qingyu.

Secretary Hu's words made Gu Qingyu happy. It was not difficult to see from Secretary Hu's words that the entire Ping'an County Committee was very satisfied with her work. It seemed that she had a great chance of taking the position vacated by Luo Jinbei!

After thanking Secretary Hu, Gu Qingyu walked out of the office in a happy mood. As he walked towards the office building of the Agriculture Bureau, he couldn't help humming a little tune.

With the official announcement of the situation, Luo Jinbei's case finally came to an end. Gu Qingyu, with Luo Jinbei's downfall, firmly secured his position as the top official in the Agricultural Bureau.

Time flies, and three years have passed in a blink of an eye. It is the Spring Festival of 1974.

In recent years, Gu Qingyu has successfully expanded the artificial mushroom cultivation territory from Hongqi Commune to the counties and towns around Xinhu City, making Xinhu City the largest artificial mushroom cultivation base in the country and a veritable mushroom town.

Thanks to this achievement, Gu Qingyu was successfully promoted to the position of deputy director of the Municipal Economic and Trade Commission and will officially take up the post after the Spring Festival.

After handing over the work at hand before the New Year, Gu Qingyu and Li Dahua returned to Gujia Village and began her half-month vacation.

Gujia Village has undergone tremendous changes in recent years. As one of the earliest villages to engage in artificial mushroom cultivation, Gujia Village has reaped the benefits of artificial mushroom cultivation earlier than other villages, and basically every household has a beautiful red brick house.

Moreover, the young people in their village either work as workers in mushroom factories or become technicians in the agricultural technology stations of the commune or even the county with their skilled planting techniques.

Now the young girls and boys in their Gujia Village are the most popular marriage candidates in the surrounding area. Every day, there are countless matchmakers rushing to propose marriages!

At this moment, Gu Qingyu was in Li Guangbo's yard, chatting and playing chess with the old man.

"Hey, hey, hey, old man, this is the nth time you have regretted your move!" Gu Qingyu held Li Guangbo's arm, preventing him from taking away the chess piece he had just placed.

"Who regretted their move! I am an old man and I didn't hold it firmly just now, so I accidentally dropped it in the wrong place." Li Guangbo insisted that he was not regretting his move and argued cunningly.

"Hey, your move is really interesting. You can't hold on to the chess game anymore!" Gu Qingyu said speechlessly after hearing this.

"Hey! You girl, you see through it but don't say it out loud, don't you know?" Li Guangbo rolled his eyes at Gu Qingyu and said unhappily.

The small yard was filled with the two of them bickering with each other, and it was quite lively for a while.

Over the years, every time Gu Qingyu returned to Gujia Village during the holidays, she would come to the Li family courtyard to visit Li Guangbo. As time went by, the two became friends regardless of age difference.

On the contrary, Li Yansong has never returned since he sent Li Guangbo back to Gujia Village and stayed there for half a month.

If it weren't for the letters and parcels that were mailed to him from time to time over the years, Gu Qingyu would have suspected that this person had sacrificed himself.

Because of Li Guangbo's cool moves, the game took more than an hour to end.

Gu Qingyu looked at the sun that was about to set outside and said to Li Guangbo, "Grandpa, it's getting dark soon. I'll stay here with you today. Let me help you back to the house!"

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back quickly. Xiao Wu is here with me, so I don't need you to help me!"

While Li Guangbo was speaking, Xiao Wu, who had been paying attention to the situation here, came over and said to Gu Qingyu, "Comrade Gu, you can go back without worry. I'm here with you, Commander!"

"Well, the weather forecast says that the weather will change tonight. You should pay more attention to the old man's condition at night." Gu Qingyu reminded Xiao Wu.

"Okay, I'll pay more attention tonight!" Xiao Wu nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll go back, uncle!" Gu Qingyu turned around again and said goodbye to Li Guangbo.

"Stop talking so much and let's go!" Li Guangbo looked at Gu Qingyu and waved his hand, then followed Xiao Wu into the house.

Hey, old kid!
