Chapter 658: Down the River
Shen Huai got into the car, and on the way to Tangzha District, asked Wang Weicheng to contact Sun Xingtong, secretary of the Xishe Township Party Committee, by phone, thinking that he would talk to Sun Xingtong directly before the election of the people's congress the day after tomorrow.
Outside the car window, the sunset red pill was like blood, lying in the golden fire clouds...... "Secretary Sun's mobile phone is not working; when he called the township, Xishe Township said that he had returned to his hometown and was not in the township for the past two days." Wang Weicheng reported to Shen Huai.
"He's hard-hearted......" Shen Huai sighed softly, he didn't expect Sun Xingtong to hide, he wanted to talk to Sun Xingtong directly, but he couldn't contact anyone, and there was no way.
Wang Weicheng asked: "Sun Xingtong's hometown is from Si'an, do you want the staff of Xishe Township to find it?"
"The twisted melon is not sweet after all, can the stubborn cow get it back if it gets into a dead end?" Shen Huai sighed lightly, and asked Wang Weicheng again, "If it were you, you would have been in the township for fifteen or six years, and if you had such an opportunity, would you take a risk?"
Wang Weicheng said: "This is really difficult to answer, after all, I have never had such an experience......
Shen Huai smiled and didn't chase to ask Wang Weicheng his answer - Sun Xingtong's experience is somewhat similar to Wang Weicheng's, both of them were transferred from the school teaching post to the county to work, and then to the leadership position, but Sun Xingtong was transferred to the county much earlier than Wang Weicheng.
In the mid-to-early 80s, the local party and government bodies were in great need of being younger and more knowledgeable, and although Sun Xingtong, who was teaching in a middle school, had a technical secondary school degree and was transferred to the county to serve as an officer at that time, he was one of the few highly educated talents; in just two or three years, he was quickly promoted from an ordinary officer to the posts of chief of the secretary section of the county party committee office, deputy director of the county party committee office, and secretary of the township party committee.
In the mid-to-early 80s, after the wave of rejuvenation and intellectualization of the leadership group passed, Sun Xingtong's pace of progress stopped, and almost 15 years later, he was still rotating between townships and towns -- and the conditions of the townships and towns where he served were also worse than the other.
For ordinary people, even the leader of a poor township may be a high point that can be reached for a lifetime. But for some people, staying in such a position for fifteen or six years, and not being able to move a step forward, is a kind of human torment.
In this regard, Shen Huai also felt the same way.
He entered the city steel mill, after two years of accumulation, as the deputy chief engineer, participated in the construction of the most important steel-making line of the city's steel-making line, from the deputy chief engineer to the most important workshop director of the city's steel, responsible for the steel-making line with nearly 2,000 employees, it did not take two years.
As the youngest group of department-level cadres in the city, he is naturally extremely high-spirited, but he also suffered his inner suffering on the cold bench for several years and knew the warmth and coldness of the world.
Whether it was Yuan Hongjun or Sun Xingtong, Shen Huai felt a little more sympathetic in his heart when they made a desperate choice in the midst of suffering, so he didn't want to take particularly drastic measures against Sun Xingtong.
Shen Huai wanted to talk to Sun Xingtong, do his ideological work, and let this turmoil settle down quietly - he didn't expect Sun Xingtong to avoid it at this time, and he could only sigh lightly.
"I've heard that Secretary Sun has been in the township rotation all these years, and his relationship with his lover is not particularly good, and it seems that he has always wanted to be transferred back to the county to work," Wang Weicheng felt some pity for Sun Xingtong in the end, and didn't want to see him drill into a dead end, and said, "Maybe when Secretary General Geng talked to him, he didn't make this intention clear, so he was hesitant and had an ......ambiguous relationship with Xu Fulin."
"......" Shen Huai's fingers lightly tapped on the glass window, and some of them were tempting to Wang Weicheng.
After he presided over the work of the government, he went to Xishe Township once to conduct research, and after a few contacts at the meetings, he did not have much impression of Sun Xingtong.
Tao Jixing asked Sun Xingtong to be Dai Quan's companion, after knowing that Sun Xingtong secretly had contact with Xu Fulin and deliberately concealed it here, in order to avoid startling the snake, Shen Huai did not directly contact Sun Xingtong, but only asked Du Jian and Wang Weicheng to learn about the situation in Xishe Township and Sun Xingtong from other channels.
Sun Xingtong may not be particularly suitable for township work, and his work achievements are not obvious, but he is diligent - because of his work, he has been separated from his wife Sun Mei, who works in the County Women's Federation, for a long time, but he has a very positive style in the township, and under the current officialdom atmosphere, he is a very upright person.
At this point, Shen Huai sighed to himself.
"I heard Director Du say that Sun Xingtong was transferred from the school to work in the county, and his scholarly anger has always been very strong, which may be one of the reasons why he is not suitable for the township and has not achieved much work," Wang Weicheng said, "If he is transferred to the county, he may be able to make some achievements......
"Du Jian said that Sun Xingtong?" asked Shen Huai.
"Hmm......," Wang Weicheng said.
"This is where Du Jian is more cunning than you. Shen Huai said.
Wang Weicheng touched his head and smiled, knowing that Du Jian actually sympathized with Sun Xingtong, after all, he had worked together for many years, but he would never show any excess sympathy in front of Shen Huai.
"Okay, let's go to Si'an and try our ......luck," Shen Huai said.
Wang Weicheng called and asked for the address of Sun Xingtong's hometown, asked the driver to turn around, and drove him and Shen Huai directly to Si'an to find Sun Xingtong, and secretly said in his heart: If Sun Xingtong is not in his hometown, there is no way to save the matter, and Shen Huai will not allow someone to jump out at this time to sing the right drama and sing successfully.
Si'an and Meixi are separated by Jiuwei Township, directly from Beicheng District out of the city, and about 10 kilometers from Tongwei Highway to Si'an Town.
Shen Huai is very familiar with this area, and knows that the Gangpu Canal in the north of Si'an Town, which directly connects Tianshenggang and Xinpu Town, is the most important river-sea canal in Donghua City.
Before the Xinpu Port, there was no major development, and the role of the Gangpu Canal was not prominent.
Now emphasizing the river-sea combined transport, the construction of Xinpu Port has been carried out on a large scale, and the Gangpu Canal should be able to make good use of it, and the ships coming from the upper reaches of the Zhujiang River will go to Xinpu Port via the Gangpu Canal, which can reduce the waterway of 100 kilometers and save the occupation of the offshore sand trough route than going to sea from the mouth of the Zhujiang River and then bypassing the Shajiao Offshore Route to stop at Xinpu Port.
Of course, in order to realize this present, the first thing to do is to dredge the Gangpu Canal so that it can be navigated by 1,000-ton cargo ships, and this investment is not a small amount...... Sun Xingtong's hometown is located on the north bank of the Gangpu Canal, and there is a cement road bridge passing through the Tongwei Highway.
When the car passed through Si'an Town and looked at the Tongwei Bridge in front of him, Shen Huai noticed that there were a large number of people around the bridge, and he asked the driver to stop the car on the side of the road, only to notice that from the roadside to the river beach, there were villagers standing by.
In addition to the onlookers, there were several uniformed folk spirits on the roadside and on the riverbank, and several boats parked by the river...... I don't know if it was a case or a dispute among the villagers that caused the gathering, even if it happened in Xiapu County, Shen Huai couldn't stand by and pretend not to see it...... "What's going on here?" Shen Huai got out of the car and walked to the side of the road to look at a passerby.
"Alas," the passer-by looked at Shen Huai, sighed, and said, "It's all caused by the heat, the two children went down to the river beach to pick up white clams in the afternoon, but they didn't expect to slip into the deep puddle." By the time anyone saw it, the two children had already washed up to the middle of the river and floated. There were no men at home in the two children's families, and they all went out to work, so a few old ladies rushed over and cried so much that they could do nothing. Everyone is dead, so I can only ask the sand boat above to come down to help retrieve the corpses. The people in the sand boat said that a child would be charged 1,000 yuan for the corpse, and if he didn't give the money, he wouldn't be fished. There was a young man who couldn't look past it, he was not afraid of the bad luck of fishing for the corpse, he took off his clothes and wanted to go down to the river to help retrieve the corpse, but as soon as he got into the water, he was hit by the people on the sand boat, and he was almost killed in the river, so he made a big fuss. The boatmen in the Xiali River are very good, and the people from the police station come over, but they don't work, and the corpses are still soaked in the river......"
"You call Sha Jianguo and ask him to come and see me...... Shen Huaitie blushed, and asked Wang Weicheng to call the top leader of Si'an Town to the scene, and he went down the river beach along the side of the road first...... In a small stretch of river beach surrounded by the crowd, several women looked like parents of drowning children, their bodies were covered with water and mud, their voices were hoarse, and they were still sitting in the wet mud and wailing, and there were people next to them who could not persuade them.
There was a shirtless young man sitting not far from the river beach, holding his shirt and covering his head, his shirt was dyed red, and there were a lot of blood stains on the river beach, staring at the river with an angry face.
In addition to the three boats by the river, there is a boat by the river, two middle-aged people squatting on the bow of the boat and smoking, with bamboo pennies under their feet and the edge of the boat, it seems that they are blocking the side from going down to collect the corpses.
Two uniformed folk spirits squatted next to them and said to a woman who was sitting on the river beach: "If you see someone falling into the water, if you don't save it, you won't save it, but it is an unfortunate thing to fish for the corpse, and there is no reason to fish in vain. It's going to get dark, and you're going to stop borrowing money until they let the corpses drift away......"
Shen Huai walked to the river, the sunset was about to set, the river was shining with golden eyes, and he could barely see that there were two black floating in the small area of water surrounded by three boats in the river, and asked the people on the boat to take penny hooks to prevent them from drifting away, thinking that it was the body of a child who had drowned, looking at the frame of the four boats, it was necessary to give money to send the body ashore.
Shen Huai walked to the water's edge, and the boat facing the river, the two middle-aged people at the bow stood up and stepped on the penny to look over...... Shen Huai walked back to the crowd of onlookers, and the young man who went down to the river to break his head protested angrily at the two people's spirits: "What kind of broken chicken rules, where do you treat the removal of corpses as a business?
"The boat stopped people from picking up the corpses, and beat people like this, are you from the police station here to be used as decorations?" Shen Huaitie blushed, looked at the middle-aged Jingcha who took the lead, and asked in a suppressed voice.
The middle-aged Jingcha looked at Shen Huai's eyes, looked familiar, and didn't recognize it for a while, but with so many people watching, he didn't say anything that would offend the anger of the people, nor was he angry, and spread his hands and prevaricated: "They are on the boat, shouting that they won't go ashore, and we can't help it! We can't go down the river and swim to the boat......
"You can't tell me if you say it again!" Shen Huai took out his work card and showed it clearly to the middle-aged Jingcha, and then directly threw the work card on his face, unbuttoning it while scolding, "I'm going down to the river to fish for the corpse now, who of them dares to move the penny, pull out your matching gun, don't fucking decorate me!"
