On Saturday morning, Chu Tianqi got up at nearly eight o'clock, walked outside with Li Jian, and ate fire and gruel at the breakfast stall. Then he was driven by Li Jian and drove towards the countryside.

The director of the Public Security Bureau was equipped with a "Cheetah" brand off-road vehicle, which was just equipped last summer. The car is the highest configuration, not spending a penny from the county bureau, and it is a new car specially sent by the provincial public security department to support the work of the county bureau. The car had just run 15,000 kilometers and was in good condition and performing well in all aspects.

Today I went to the countryside and did not have a clear destination. Instead, it is relatively leisurely on weekends, go down to learn about the distribution of towns and villages, familiarize yourself with some transportation routes, and take a look at the local customs by the way.

Today's weather is good, the haze has also decreased a lot, and it is rare to see the blue sky, which is the only time that Chu Tianqi has been in Dingye City for more than ten days. There was no bad smell in the air, and the breeze was warm and coaxing on the body.

It was already warm in mid-March, almost equivalent to the temperature in Yuchi County at the end of April. In the county, pedestrians on the road are very thinly dressed, especially some young people around 20 years old, who are directly wearing half-sleeves and sandals.

Out of the county, the car drove on the national highway. The turf beside the road was already green, the branches of the willow trees had grown yellow and green shoots, and the whole field was shrouded in pale green. This is a plain area, the terrain is flat, the view is wider, plus the blue sky, white clouds, and the breeze make it a good idyllic scenery.

It is also the current season, the wild of Yuchi County is still yellow, and the trees beside the road are also black and gray. From a distance, there is no shortage of snow on the hillside. Even girls who love beauty have to wear long cotton boots with tight-fitting thick clothes, and there are often hats with long hairs on the clothes.

In comparison, the weather in Xuyuan County is warm, the field of vision is broad, and the weather is good today, so it is said that the mood should be very comfortable. But Chu Tianqi was not so happy, but there was a kind of melancholy spreading in his heart, and he realized even more that this was a foreign land, far from his hometown. His hometown is thousands of miles away, where there are his parents and relatives, his memories of growing up, his youth stories, and his beloved lovers.

How are you? How are you? Chu Tianqi closed his eyes and called in his heart, and his thoughts flew thousands of miles away. In his mind, the small courtyard and bungalow at home, the woods and open space behind the village, the picture of practicing with his father in the early morning, and the scene of his parents often talking to each other. The bungalow and office in the township were still the same, and she was sitting behind the desk in the secretary's office, looking at herself with a smile and a smile, and she was also looking at her and smirking.

The picture in my mind jumped to the development zone again, and the development zone was full of construction scenes in full swing. The dilapidated half-pulled works were gone, and there were buildings with unique shapes standing in the open land, and he was standing in the middle of them, looking up at everything around him.

From time to time, the picture changes in my mind, one moment it is a very lively scene, and the other time it is a very quiet occasion. Those faces, those scenes, those scenes, are so familiar, so kind. The familiar is already deeply imprinted in my mind, and the cordial is as if it were in front of my eyes.

"Ding Bang", the mobile phone rang, bringing Chu Tianqi back to reality. He opened his eyes and looked at the caller ID on it, the number was very unfamiliar, it should be a number from another province. But he still pressed the answer button and said "hey".

There was silence on the phone for a while, and then a man's intermittent voice came out: "Are you surnamed Chu?"

The other party's voice was a little depressed, and it seemed that the signal was not very good, Chu Tianqi didn't hear who it was for a while, but replied: "I am surnamed Chu, who are you?"

"I heard your voice, I'm out of town, I'm there that day. After the other party finished speaking, his voice stopped abruptly.

Chu Tianqi was about to speak, and found that the other party had hung up the call, so he put away his mobile phone, thinking about who the other party was. After thinking about it for a while, but there was no result, Chu Tianqi put aside the matter for the time being, and looked out the window.

The scenery outside the window appeared in front of me again, completely different from what I had just thought of it. Chu Tianqi also realized that although his hometown was good, as a person in the officialdom, he had to obey the organization's arrangement. Now Xuyuan County is its own position, is the battlefield for which it should pay and fight, and it must create a peaceful living environment for the people here, and must escort the healthy economic and social development of the county.

"Director, people. The sound of the sword suddenly sounded.

What is the fuss about people? Thinking like this, Chu Tianqi turned his gaze to the front of the car. At first glance, I realized that no wonder the sharp sword prompted, it turned out that there was a large group of people in front. It is said that there are not too many people, that is, dozens of people, but what these people are doing is surprising.

Not far ahead was a fork in the road, and the men were piling up a lot of stones in the middle of the fork, apparently trying to block traffic.

Where did the stones come from in the flat field? Why did these people block the road? With such a question, Chu Tianqi asked Li Jian to park the car on the side of the road, get out of the car and walk towards the group of people.

Li Jian hurriedly locked the car and walked a few steps to follow Chu Tianqi's side.

Seeing someone coming, the group of people did not stop their movements, and even shouted: "Don't let us have a good time, don't think about it." ”

Coming to the approaching group of people, Chu Tianqi noticed that there were two agricultural vehicles parked at the corner of the road, loaded with stones. Just a little farther away, there were trees on the side of the road, and I didn't see any farm vehicles. Needless to say, these stones were specially brought in from other places, just to block the road. Chu Tianqi also noticed that most of the people in this group were elderly, and there were women, and there were no young men.

Although they stood behind these people for a short time, no one paid attention to them, and those people did whatever they had to do. One of the elderly men, dressed in faded green pants with patches, was guiding the actions of the crowd, like a leader.

"Uncle, what is this for?" Chu Tianqi said to the leading man, "There are piles of stones on the road, how can the vehicles pass?"

When the man heard the voice, he turned around and looked at Chu Tianqi, then looked at the car parked on the side of the road in the distance, and then said, "Are you a foreigner, right?

Chu Tianqi asked, "Oh, why do you say that?"

"You speak with a standard pronunciation, which is very different from us, so naturally you are not a local. Wherever you go, this young man follows, either your bodyguard or secretary, not to mention driving a good car, either rich or powerful. Am I right?" said the man, smirking smirk, "I used to be a soldier, and some things are not difficult to see. ”

Chu Tianqi didn't continue to follow the other party's words, but mentioned the question just now: "Uncle, what do you want, right? But if you do this, it will affect the passage of others, and it will not be beneficial to the resolution of the matter, and it is likely to backfire." ”

"You really understand people. But they wouldn't let us live, and no one cared about us, so we couldn't do anything. Only by making a little move can we attract the attention of the officials and solve our problems. We've figured it out, and this is just the first step, and if it doesn't work, we have a second step, a third step. When it comes to the last day, we can't live well, and others don't want to live in peace, and we will all end up together. The more the man spoke, the more agitated he became, his eyebrows raised, and he gasped.

Seeing that the other party's mood fluctuated a lot, Chu Tianqi took out a cigarette and handed it over, and immediately lit the lighter.

The man reached out and took the cigarette, hesitated, lit it at the lighter, and took two puffs. He calmed down a little, his face darkened, and he asked vigilantly, "You're not one of theirs, are you?"

Chu Tianqi shook his head: "I don't understand what you mean. ”

"It doesn't matter if it's their people or not. Anyway, we do this to let them know, and also to let the officials know. The man sighed impatiently, "There's really no way, who can do this?"

Chu Tianqi said understandingly: "You must have unbearable hardships, you might as well talk about it and see if I can help." ”

"Can you help? what the hell are you doing?" the man asked rhetorically.

"Whether you can help or not depends on what is the matter, and it depends on whether you are reasonable. The premise is that you have to say it, and you have to say it truthfully. With that, Chu Tianqi handed over a cigarette again.

The man took the cigarette, pinched off the filter of the cigarette butt in his hand, and took it onto the cigarette. Then he took two puffs and said, "The smoke is a good smoke, but it is too soft, and it is not as strong as the smoke of the great drought." ”

Chu Tianqi smiled, didn't speak, and handed over the remaining half of the box of cigarettes.

After hesitating for a moment, the man took the box of cigarettes and said, "It's better to be respectful than to obey." Then he turned around and said to a man with a cigarette pouch and pot beside him, "Third child, taste this cigarette." ”

The man with the cigarette pot took the cigarette case, took out one from it, and put it on his ear. Then he passed the cigarette case to the next person, and the next person took out one and continued to pass the cigarette case down until half the box was divided.

The cigarettes brought by Chu Tianqi today were still given by Ning Junqi, and the cigarette box was printed with the content of "tax free". Usually he is reluctant to smoke, and the tobacco is a little dry, and he has only been smoking it in recent days.

Seeing that everyone finished distributing cigarettes, the man looked at the two people in front of him again, and said firmly: "You are eighty percent of officials, you must be an official above, and those officials in the township and county will not have such a good attitude." He paused slightly, and then added, "Anyway, we are doing this so that the officials can manage this matter and make decisions for us." The man opened the conversation in a heavy tone.
