However, the people of Caotang Village are a little submissive, there is hesitation and vigilance in their eyes, and they are unwilling to say more to Tang Cheng, in fact, Tang Cheng also understands this scene, in a village, the branch secretary is the biggest authority, and many local people would rather offend the governor than the village chief, which is an indisputable fact.
However, fortunately, the problem involves the renovation of dilapidated houses, and Tang Cheng doesn't need to listen to it, he can watch it directly.
Tang Cheng visited and investigated in the cottage village, with a light car, holding an umbrella, not like an official, or some villagers showed Tang Cheng the way, so that Tang Cheng came to the scene of the old couple who stoned to death.
Tang Cheng leaned down, judging from the broken earth and stone tiles, this is an old house that has been more than 70 years old, the old wood has rotted at both ends, and some of the building materials are still green bricks burned in the late Qing Dynasty, which shows that this is indeed a dangerous house.
Seeing this, Tang Cheng's brows furrowed, and a faint pain surged in his heart, as the governor, there are still such poor people in the jurisdiction, still living in dilapidated houses, and being stoned to death by dilapidated houses, this incident made Tang Cheng feel a little guilty and angry.
To tell the truth, Tang Cheng attaches great importance to the renovation of dilapidated houses in rural areas, and Tang Cheng has also held many meetings to deploy this work, and allocated special funds for the renovation of dilapidated houses in rural areas, so as to prevent deaths due to dilapidated houses in Hudong Province. However, nowadays, there are policies and countermeasures, and the policies of the central and provincial governments are good, that is, when they are implemented, there is a problem of execution, Tang Cheng is the governor, and it is impossible to go to various places to inspect and supervise the implementation of the situation one by one, which gives some people an opportunity to take advantage of.
After seeing the scene of the collapse of this dilapidated house, Tang Cheng had a plan in his heart.
Regardless of whether the old couple was stoned to death in a dilapidated house, one thing is certain, that is, the old couple lived in a dilapidated house.
For this alone, the government should be held responsible for the death of the elderly couple.
Tang Cheng left the scene and visited the village, and found that in the center of the village, Tang Cheng actually saw two or three dilapidated houses, these dilapidated houses, some of which are still blue brick civil engineering structures, and the eaves are all built with turbidity of grass and mud, and it is possible to collapse if there is a little wind and rain!
Such a dilapidated house should have been demolished a long time ago, and there are still people living there!
However, when Tang Cheng got closer, Tang Cheng was surprised by a scene, an eighty-year-old old lady, as soon as the door curtain was lifted, she walked out of the dilapidated room, still holding a dustpan in her hand.
Tang Cheng walked into her side and opened his mouth to shout, "Auntie, have you eaten?"
If Tang Cheng opened his mouth and shouted, Hello Auntie, the old lady in the countryside couldn't understand it at all, so Tang Cheng used colloquialism and asked if you had eaten?
The old lady's ears were still very good, and she nodded and said, "It's time to eat in the morning." โ
Tang Cheng moved over a mazazi and accompanied the old lady to pick up food under the big plane tree, Tang Cheng also helped her pick out the soil in the soybeans, Tang Cheng said: "Auntie, you are so old, you are not blind or deaf, you are really good." โ
The eldest lady sighed and said, "There is no way, I have three children, but they are not filial, and I have to rely on myself for everything." โ
Tang Cheng said: "Auntie, the house you live in is almost the same age as you, right?"
The old lady said, "Two years younger than me." โ
Tang Cheng also smiled, although the eldest lady lives in a dilapidated house, her spirit is acceptable, full of plainness and calmness, this is our people, tolerant and open-minded.
The government treats our people like this, Tang Cheng really feels wronged for the people in his heart, what a good Chinese nation!
Tang Cheng said: "You live in this dilapidated house, in the township and in the village, and you don't care about it? Aren't you afraid that you will be stoned to death inside? Aren't the old Liu family and his wife in the east of the village stoned to death?"
Tang Cheng's words still touched her, the old lady's eyes moistened, and she said: "Alas, who is not afraid! But what can I do if I am afraid? I don't have the money to build a new house, and my children don't care. โ
Tang Cheng stood up, looked at the dilapidated house in front of him, crumbling, and said that it must have collapsed at that moment.
The reason why the eldest lady still lives in this dilapidated house, first of all, is because she has children. Second, there are also government reasons.
Tang Cheng is the governor, Tang Cheng can't take the first reason as a reason, in reality, there are still many lonely and widowed old people, they are also people, life is equally precious, when encountering such a thing, Tang Cheng first found the reason from himself, and the government is still not good enough in some aspects!
Tang Cheng came out of the old lady, Tang Cheng began to look for the village party secretary's home, Tang Cheng has this experience, still remembers, generally speaking, the village party secretary's home is very magnificent, in addition, there will be two loudspeakers on the roof, there are big horns, it must be the village party secretary.
Based on these two characteristics, Tang Cheng soon found the home of the village party secretary.
After Niu Fa knocked on the door, the door opened, and a woman with heavy makeup came out, she looked at Niu Fa a few times, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Niu Fa asked, "Is this the village party secretary?"
The woman replied, "Yes, what is the matter with you?"
Niu Fa asked, "Is the branch secretary at home?"
The woman replied, "I am not at home, but I have gone to the village for a meeting." โ
Niu Fa sighed, turned around and looked at Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng looked around the village party secretary's home, magnificent, the structure of the house, which is extraordinarily firm, is all made of concrete, it seems that there is no problem in resisting a six-magnitude earthquake.
The corner of the courtyard is full of empty wine, like a hill, which is also the characteristic of the branch scrivener.
Since the branch secretary was not at home, Tang Cheng and the others left, Tang Cheng after such a field visit in Caotang Village, without a local official accompanying him, but let Tang Cheng grasp the first-hand real materials, which provided a basis for Tang Cheng's next actions and decisions.
Tang Cheng returned to the station of Suntan Township.
Fang Yue said: "Governor, should I make a phone call to the relevant comrades in the province and ask them to immediately urge them to compensate the deceased old couple in full?"
Tang Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, but, not in my name, in case they know that I am here, I still want to continue to see." In the name of the provincial government, you will issue a notice to Dagu City, and the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs and the Provincial Department of Finance will go down to Lianhua County of Dagu City to inspect the implementation of the dilapidated house renovation project. โ
At this time, it was time to eat lunch, Niu Fa invited Tang Cheng to return to his home to eat, but Tang Cheng refused, Tang Cheng didn't want to disturb the people, and had to add a lot of trouble to Niu Fa's family, Tang Cheng looked up and saw that there was a restaurant on the street where the Suntan Township Government was stationed, called Chunxiang Hotel, looking at the appearance, it was not bad, Tang Cheng asked Niu Fa to stop, and lunch was eaten in this Chunxiang restaurant.
Tang Cheng and the three of them sat in a private room, a waiter came to greet him, and warmly invited Tang Cheng and others to order, Tang Cheng asked Fang Yue to order, and after a while, Fang Yue came back and said: "Coming to this country restaurant, let's eat some green vegetables, the green vegetables here, although they are not necessarily green food, but, compared with the provincial capital, there must be less transportation links in the middle, and they are relatively fresh." โ
When Tang Cheng heard this, it was also very pleasant to be able to eat some vegetables in the township restaurant. However, Tang Cheng invited a treat, and he still asked Fang Yue to arrange a meat dish.
Just when Tang Cheng was dining, in this Chunxiang restaurant, a group of diners walked in, and it was Hou Guotang, the branch secretary of Caotang Village, who was invited to the banquet, and the deputy head of Suntan Township and the leader of the Caotang Village Management Area.
A group of five people happened to sit next to Tang Cheng again.
Township hotel, after all, the conditions are still rough, although the hotel has also been renovated, a large interval has a number of private rooms, but it is not soundproof, so Tang Cheng can clearly hear the voice next door.
Hou Guotang, the branch secretary of Caotang Village, said: "If the family of the dead people does not withdraw in the afternoon, they will simply let the police station arrest them all and deal with them directly. Murderers can be tolerated, but they cannot be tolerated with the common people, and once they are tolerant of the common people, they will all rise up and become murderers. โ
Zhang Da, deputy head of the township, said: "The common people are of low quality, they like to scold their mothers, eat meat, and scold the mothers of our cadres. โ
Just these two opening sentences were heard by Tang Cheng, and the anger in Tang Cheng's heart came up with a bang!
With such a grassroots cadre acting for the tiger, can the common people not be offended!
The secretary of the general branch of the Caotang Village Management Area said: "If you dare to make trouble at the entrance of the township government in the afternoon, your village committee will also send a few village cadres and captains to drag them all back to me together with the people from the police station." and those who refuse to cooperate are to be resolutely arrested. Hit their arrogance hard. โ
Then, they are a la carte, barbecued pork, sweet and sour carp, fish meatballs, steamed lamb chops, spicy chicken, Beijing fat duck, and the real chicken, duck and fish.
The wine is also good, local brands.
This level, in a township hotel, is already not low-grade.
During the meal, the deputy head of the township called the party secretary of Caotang Village outside and whispered: "Lao Hou, last time, did you use all the funds allocated to your village for the renovation of dilapidated houses to the construction of your own houses? I said Lao Hou, you can't go too far, you always have to give those dilapidated house residents a little money, plug their mouths, and besides, it's really a particularly dangerous house, you can't let people live in it anymore, and now, two old people have been stoned to death, something happened, right?"
Hou Guotang defended: "During the New Year's holidays, I will give a bag of noodles to those dilapidated households." โ
The deputy township chief said: "You, Lao Hou, your heart can't be too dark, you can't swallow all the dilapidated house renovation funds allocated to your village?"
Hou Guotang took out a bank card from his pocket, stuffed it into the hand of the deputy township chief, and said: "This is 10,000 yuan, you take it first, and when this matter passes, my brother will still be grateful." โ
The deputy township chief excused himself and smiled.
Back at the dinner table, the deputy township chief gritted his teeth against the people who were blocking the door to make trouble, and said vigorously: "After I go back, we will resolutely bring them to justice and punish their crimes according to law!"
In the past, the common people had a saying that called the peasants the four evils: cotton bollworms, crickets, village cadres, and township governments.
They were in the next room, eating and drinking from the mountains, and there were people who cared about the lives and deaths of the common people! It really responded to Du Fu's poem, and there were frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen's wine and meat.
At this time, there was someone outside the door, it was the family of the deceased who came here to find the party secretary of Caotang Village, the daughter of the deceased, married to another village, she petitioned at the door of the township government, and did not get a clear statement from the township government, nor did she have any consolation prize, but she was more intimidated, if she dared to make trouble again, they would all be arrested.
This rural woman was also very worried, she didn't want to be arrested, just in this gap between eating, she asked her husband to continue to stay at the door of the township government, she asked for two buns on the street, after eating, I heard that the party secretary of their village also dined here, so I came here to ask the village party secretary, can you look at the face of the neighbors, take care of them?
When he heard that the woman had come here to look for her, the red-faced secretary tore a piece of meat from the banquet and put it in his mouth, drank a glass of wine, and came out to meet the peasant woman.
Just outside in the hall, the village party secretary and the family of the deceased sat opposite each other.
The family of the deceased begged the village party secretary and said: "Secretary Hou, for the sake of our neighborhood, can you talk to the people in the township and give our family a little funeral expenses?"
Hou Guotang squinted his eyes and looked at the other party, he cut his voice and said contemptuously: "I don't have a penny! If you dare to continue to make trouble, the leaders of the police station and the management area have just said it, they will handcuff you and arrest all of you in prison! Listen to my advice, go back immediately, and don't make trouble here." The arms can't twist the thighs, and you are the ones who suffer in the end. โ
Tang Cheng, at this time, it was convenient to come out, so he saw this scene, and after the convenience, Tang Cheng simply sat aside and quietly watched their situation evolve.
