Chapter 58: The Grave Repairs
Yao Chongyang squinted his eyes and stared at Hua Guoping for a long time, and then he spoke: "Well, I understand what Secretary Hua and Lotus Township mean. I think so, I think the people on our side are also a little tired, why don't we get here here today? Let's rest for a day and then talk?"
Before Hua Guoping could express his position, Zhang Xiaoyan nodded again and again: "What Yao Dong said is that you have come from afar, and you really have to rest first!"
Yao Chongyang was originally going to settle the matter of manganese ore development as soon as possible today, but looking at the situation, he knew that this wish was basically in vain. Rather than further intensifying the contradictions, it is better to buffer it before looking at it.
Thinking of this, Yao Chongyang nodded, and took the people of the Guiren Group back upstairs to rest.
……
When the leaders of Lotus Township and the noble group were talking unhappily, Li Qingyun was next to the old tomb that had been repaired in Phoenix Mountain.
After the repair, the tomb occupies a larger area than before, almost more than ten square meters. The left and right sides are divided into tombs, tombstones, spiritual seats, altars and other parts.
On the front and back roads, the waterproof red bricks are cleanly paved, which is in stark contrast to the soil in the fields on both sides.
Looking at this greatly changed tomb, Li Qingyun nodded secretly, and finally lived up to his trust.
Seeing Li Qingyun's satisfied look, Hou Wantong next to him was happy: "Director Xiao Li, it must be no problem to wrap it on me." How's it going, are you satisfied?"
"Well, that's good! I'm sorry for you and the villagers, Uncle Hou!" Li Qingyun nodded to Hou Wantong and said.
Hou Wantong took a puff of cigarette and asked, "Director Li, this tomb has been repaired, so it's almost time to carry out the memorial process." You'd better inform that Boss Xia and let him come in person. In addition, the name of the deceased must also be engraved on this tombstone, and you still have to call someone to ask. ”
When Li Qingyun heard it, this is indeed the truth. Although he already knew that the person in this tomb was Boss Xia's grandmother, he really didn't know the name.
Thinking of this, Li Qingyun nodded to Hou Wantong, picked up his mobile phone and dialed the phone of Boss Xia's attendant Liu Zhi.
"Hey, you, is it Brother Liu Zhi Liu? I'm Li Qingyun from Lotus Township, I don't know if you still have an impression?" After the phone was connected, Li Qingyun hurriedly reported to his home.
"Oh, it's Comrade Xiao Li, hello, hello!" Liu Zhi said very warmly.
After a few words of gossip, Li Qingyun narrated the difficulties he encountered: "That's the case, Brother Liu." When Boss Xia came last time, the things he explained had already been completed on my side. There are just some details, and I still need to ask for instructions......"
Li Qingyun told the story before and after the grave was repaired, as well as the problems encountered now. For example, what is the name engraved on this tombstone, and the birth date of the person in the tomb, etc. In addition, Li Qingyun also asked when Boss Xia would be free, and if he would like to come down in person to wear linen and filial piety, sweep the tomb and burn incense.
After Li Qingyun's question was raised, Liu Zhi was silent for a moment, and then smiled and said that he was going to ask for instructions and asked Li Qingyun to wait for a while. Of course, Li Qingyun nodded again and again.
After about twenty minutes, Li Qingyun received a call from Liu Zhi to come back.
"Comrade Xiao Li, I just reported the situation to Boss Xia. For what you have done for him, Boss Xia is very grateful. Originally, he was going to personally come down to sweep the tomb and burn incense to pay tribute to his ancestors. However, due to some special circumstances, it is inconvenient for him to carry out these rituals. Boss Xia said, if you can, can you please do it for you?"
"As for what needs to be engraved on the tombstone, I will send you a text message later, and explain it in detail, do you think it will work?" Liu Zhi said in a consultative tone.
"This ......" Li Qingyun was a little surprised when he heard that Boss Xia wanted to hang the immortals on his behalf, and he didn't know what to reply for a while.
Liu Zhi seemed to have guessed Li Qingyun's hesitation, and he said with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Li, Boss Xia is indeed in a special situation. He said, this time I ask you to help you with this favor, which can be regarded as a favor owed to you, and I hope you will definitely help him with this favor! As for the expenses, Comrade Xiao Li, even if you ask, 120,000 yuan is not a problem. ”
Hearing this, Li Qingyun shook his head for a while. He smiled reluctantly: "Brother Liu, although Boss Xia and I are only on the same side, we get along quite happily. Since he has spoken, I will not refuse. As for the money, forget it, and help this little favor is deserved. ”
"Then it's troublesome Comrade Li!" Liu Zhi saw that Li Qingyun agreed, and his heart was relieved.
Before closing the line, Liu Zhi instructed Li Qingyun that when he was free, he must come to the provincial capital for a turn, and he invited guests to dinner.
Although Li Qingyun verbally agreed to this invitation, he didn't pay much attention to it. In his opinion, although Liu Zhi spoke politely, he always felt that some of the officialdom was too heavy, and there was a condescending meaning.
Dealing with such a person, Li Qingyun felt a little uncomfortable. For his invitation, Li Qingyun could only thank Bumin.
Not long after the call ended, Li Qingyun received a text message from Liu Zhi. The content of the text message is very simple, that is, the name to be engraved on the tombstone, as well as the birth date of the person in the tomb.
Li Qingyun took out a pen and paper, copied a copy of the content on the text message and gave it to Hou Wantong, and told him not to make a mistake.
"Don't worry, Director Li. You wrote it to me, if I make a mistake again, then isn't this pair of tricks in vain?" Hou Wantong carefully folded the pieces of paper and put them away, and said to Li Qingyun with a smile.
"Nacheng, I'll leave it to you, Uncle Hou! I still have something to do, so I won't stay on the mountain for a long time, so I'll go down the mountain." Li Qingyun smiled.
"Well, it's not too early, and I'm going down the mountain to go home for dinner. Hou Wantong looked at the sky and said.
Looking at Hou Wantong's appearance of wiping his sweat, Li Qingyun felt a little embarrassed. Although he gave Uncle Hou and the villagers of Xingzhuang Village wages for the matter of repairing the grave, they were busy these days and had not invited him to eat a meal, which was really a bit unusual.
It just so happens that there is nothing to do at hand today, so it is better to invite him to have a good meal in the township at noon.
Thinking of this, Li Qingyun smiled and said, "Uncle Hou, don't go home for dinner at noon today, I'll invite you to eat in the township." By the way, you also called the brothers who helped. ”
"This ...... I don't need to, I'm so embarrassed. Hou Wantong waved his hand again and again.
Li Qingyun waved his hand and said: "It's decided, the tombstone below is engraved or something, and you still need the help of the big guy." However, if you say it in advance, this family will not be paid. ”
"How can you collect money from people for this little thing. Hou Wantong said with a smile, "Yes, Director Xiao Li is very gracious, so I'll go and inform the fools of them." ”
