More than three hours away, the car turned over a mountain beam, there was a small town in front of me, there were shops, there were small restaurants, the smell in the air was very strong, a potholed oil road passed through the center of the town, the road surface was very dirty, the black sheep dung eggs and eggs were sparsely sprinkled on the road, the telephone poles on the side of the road were also crooked, the two tall houses in the distance were credit unions and post offices, the outside decoration was the best, very conspicuous, the other houses were uneven, tall, short, three or three twos scattered on both sides of the road. Maybe it's affected by the topography, the town seems to be very crowded, it looks like there are a lot of people, the people here have a characteristic, they all have a hat, a big bamboo basket behind them, there are some vegetables in the basket, and children, the string of sugar gourds in the hand is gnawing with a small head, and the two green dragons under the nose are sent into the mouth together, the small mouth is full, and the taste seems to be good.

The car turned a corner to the east, that is, dozens of meters ahead, a large courtyard appeared in front, all of which were brick houses with black tiles. The car climbed a slope and rushed into the yard, but the gate was not clearly visible. There was a black Santana parked in the courtyard, and it looked quite new.

The first impression of Li Min here was that there was a discrepancy between what this old man said, this car was not much better than this broken jeep, he was uncomfortable all the way, he couldn't help complaining in his heart, and his good impression of him immediately decreased a lot.

"Secretary Wei is here," Ji Fu said, hurriedly got out of the car, and went to open the car door for Wang Tui.

It turned out that this was the car of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and he misunderstood people, and Li Min was upset. She didn't want to think about it, the car door had already opened, and she quickly got out of the car, and a group of people had already come out of the house to greet her.

A tall man with a big back and a tweed coat walked ahead.

Wang Tui also hurried over, and stretched out his hand from afar, "Secretary Wei, hello." ”

"Mayor Wang, hello, hello, I can look forward to you. He shook hands very affectionately, greeted him, introduced others to him one by one, and hurried into the house.

This is a conference room, the layout is reasonable, decent, but also slightly shabby, a little earthy, after all, not as luxurious as their usual high-end conference rooms.

The welcoming ceremony was very warm, and there were more than 60 people in total, including the principal leaders of the city, the heads of the counties and districts, the secretaries and township heads of the townships and towns in the camps, districts, and counties. The crowd is like the stars holding the moon. That kind of warm atmosphere made Wang Tui feel deeply, which is more popular than in Ying County. Wei Wenrui first delivered a welcome speech, expressing the warmest welcome to Wang Yuan's arrival, and the applause was also very warm.

Wang Tui also made a speech and expressed his determination.

Wei Wenrui finally said: "After the decision of the municipal party committee and the approval of the provincial government, Comrade Wang Tui was appointed as the executive vice mayor of Qiongde City, in charge of the city's industrial and agricultural development, and the camp and county were used as the pilot ...... for reform."

After more than an hour of welcome reception, there was no welcome reception as usual. In fact, Ji Fulai arranged everything, but it was canceled under Wang Tui's efforts, and he just had a home-cooked meal and didn't drink alcohol.

Wei Wenrui was very moved by this. After the meal, the two talked for a long time.

"Mayor Wang, I wanted to arrange for you to live in the city, considering the convenience of work, it is better to live here. It's a tough place to live, so if you really can't get used to it, call me and let's go to the city, anyway, the dormitories and offices in the city are also cleaned up. ”

"Don't worry, Secretary Wei, let's live here first, the conditions here are better than I imagined. I have just arrived, so I will first feel the situation below, and I will take out the development plan and submit it to the municipal party committee for discussion as soon as possible. ”

"Okay, the municipal party committee also thinks so, I also brought the original plan of the municipal party committee, you refer to it, you can change the inappropriate places at will, I mean, your plan shall prevail." ”

"Okay, don't worry, Secretary Wei, I will finish this work as soon as possible. ”

"Okay, there will be a meeting in the province tomorrow, I'll leave immediately, if you need anything, let Comrade Ji Fulai help you solve it." ”

The secretary of the party committee left, and the leaders of other counties and cities also resigned one after another. Before leaving, the leaders of various counties and districts invited Wang Tui to guide their work, and they were very sincere. Wang Tui agreed one by one.

It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon when they were sent away. Ji Fulai first led them to the place where they lived to take a look, it was indeed not bad, the house looked like it had just been painted, and it was snow-white. Wang Tui lives in a suite, which is quite spacious, and the sofas, tables and chairs are all newly bought. Li Min stayed in a single room.

"It's a little simple, let's just live there," Ji Fulai said apologetically.

"That's good, that's good, that's good. ”

"There is a canteen in the county, and it used to be one meal at noon, but now there are three meals a day, not to mention how good it is, how delicious it is, coarse tea and light rice, you can eat enough, you can also talk to the cooking master, you can adjust it as you like." ”

"Secretary Ji, thank you, you are so thoughtful in arranging. ”

"I should be the one who says thank you, you come to help us develop the economy. Just now, my colleagues in various counties and districts envied me a lot, and they all said that Secretary Wei was biased towards me," Ji Fulai said with a smile.

The mutton stewed at noon, there is still a lot left, a big pot is hot, and there are a few delicious side dishes, sour and spicy are still very delicious, and the millet porridge is also boiled in place, and the paste is pasty, Wang Tui drank three bowls.

After eating, Ji Fulai let them rest well and took their leave.

Back in the dormitory, Li Min smiled evilly, "I'm flattered, I see that they have all offered you up, and I am also naked." ”

"People are so enthusiastic, we really can't mix. Look at this house, the things in this house are all carefully prepared, and even this color TV is newly bought. ”

"Yes, I'm very satisfied, you know, when I first met you, you said that you didn't even have electricity, which really scared me, and I was really a little stunned. ”

"I looked, it's normal to have electricity, don't you see that there are so many candles prepared for us. ”

Li Min looked at the table, it was true, there were several packs.

"Is there electricity now?" she quickly pulled down the light, and it was on, with a burst of surprise, "I'll hurry up and recharge," she hurried out.

Wang Tui made the bed, and Li Min flew in like a little swallow again, "I'm coming, I'm coming, these are all done by little women, how dare a big man be entangled by these to do big things, tell you, your task is very heavy, we can't live in vain and eat others," Li Min said with a smile.

"What do you mean, I'll pick up the burden alone, and you're here to oversee it?"

"That's right, I'm the one who supervises, supervises your daily life, supervises you not*, and supervises your style, don't cheat. I can find fun, there are a lot of beautiful girls in the mountains, I smile when I see you, and they are all very affectionate. ”

"You, you, just pay attention to these, if you really find a partner, how can you stand you, who dares to ask for it. ”

"No one dares to be, right?, then with you, let you see a cheap, a young girl, still a virgin, like a fairy down to earth, and all kinds of amorous. ”

"You're not ashamed, I don't dare to ask for it. ”

The two talked and laughed, and lived very quickly.

After resting for a while, Li Min went out, Wang Tui was lying on the bed and was confused, Li Min came to tease him again, gently pinching his straight nose with his little hands, and giggling non-stop. She is like a pistachio, and no matter how melancholy a person is, he must be happy with her.

It turned out that she had gone to change her clothes, with black leggings on her lower body, a pair of tall brown riding boots, and a yellow knee-high bread suit on her upper body.

The fat powder on his face came to his face, and there was a faint smell of perfume on his body. Wang Tui's nose was itchy, he couldn't help a sneeze, he hurriedly covered it with his hand, sneezed again, turned over, "I can't stand it, stay away from me, I'm allergic," and then another sneeze.

Li Min hurriedly avoided him, "What are you allergic to?"

Wang Tui sniffed a few times and wiped his eyes, "The strange smell on your body." ”

"What, the smell of me?" she raised her arm and sniffed, "No." ”

"It's your fat powder smell, it's too strong, I can't stand it," Wang Tui said with a smile, got out of bed, and quickly went to wash his face.

Li Min understood, "It turned out to be this allergy," he said, and went out.

When Wang Tui was dressed, she came in again, "I washed it." ”

Wang Tui looked at her with a smile, "It still looks innocent like this." ”

"You like me for not wearing makeup?"

"It's beautiful, and what kind of makeup do you wear. ”

"Really, well, no makeup from now on," Li Min was very happy and asked again, "What are we going to do now?"

Wang Tui thought for a moment, "Go out for a walk." ”

"Okay," Li Min was happy, "I'll go get my bag," and hurry out.

Wang Tui put on a black tweed coat, and as soon as he left the house, Lao Han, who was burning the fire, came over and asked him if he would have more dinner at night. Wang Tui hurriedly said enthusiastically: "No, no, let's sit in Uncle Han's house." ”

"No, no, are you going out?"

"Well, go out for a walk. ”

"Then come back quickly, it's dark, the road is not easy to walk, you can't get used to walking, don't get lost." ”

"Okay, it's not far, just walk around the door. ”

At this time, the entire county party committee compound was very quiet, he looked at his watch, it was not yet five o'clock, he was thoughtful, the night in the mountains also came early.

"What's the fuss, let's go," Li Min stepped onto a good-looking bag, went up and grabbed him and said with a smile.

Wang Tui looked around, turned his head and whispered to her, "Pay attention to the influence, this is not our place." ”

Li Min let go of him, pouted, what do you mean, I think I am willing to hold you, you are so beautiful. said that, he still grabbed him: "Let's go." ”

Wang Tui looked at the bag on her shoulder, "You'd better put this down." ”

Li Min looked at his bag and then at him, "Isn't it okay to carry a bag?"

"No, let's just walk at the door, I'm afraid you're tired and inconvenient. ”

"Do I want to be like those women in the mountains, and it's convenient to carry a big bamboo basket on my back?"

"Let me tell you, girl, in the future, you have to learn to carry a bamboo basket, which is called following the customs of the locals. ”

"I see that the men in the mountains are wearing sheepskin jackets, why don't you wear them?" she was so articulate that Wang Tui couldn't speak for a while.

"Okay, I can't tell you, let's go. ”

The two walked out of the gate of the county government and walked onto the side street.

At this time, the weather is a little cold, and there are not many people on the street. The dark shadows of the surrounding mountains became thicker and thicker, and the old farmer who roasted sweet potatoes shouted from time to time, "Hot sweet potatoes, hot sweet potatoes just out of the oven." As they walked by, the old farmer in the dogskin hat smiled flatteringly, "Buy two, the freshly baked ones are like syrup, and they are very sweet." ”

Wang Tui looked at Li Min, "Eat?"

Looking at the black and dirty hands of the roasted sweet potato man, Li Min shook his head. Keep going. There is a roasted chestnut, and I smell the fragrance from afar. Seeing Li Min seemed to be a little unhappy, maybe he provoked her just now, girls are like this, they are very emotional, just like a June day. I had to coax her, and said with a smile: "Let's go buy some chestnuts, the chestnuts here are very cheap and authentic, and we can't buy them there." ”

This time, Li Min didn't object, but he didn't look at him either, and followed him. Really cheap, big and tasted one, and it was also sweet. They bought a big bag for twenty yuan, but the money was Li Min's, because he groped all over his pockets and didn't take out a penny.

Li Min glanced at him and whispered, "Don't let me bring the bag yet, I'm dumbfounded." ”

"Yes, yes, it's still Min'er who is careful. ”

Li Min glanced at him dissatisfied, couldn't help laughing, this smile, happy again, and grabbed his arm again. Maybe she has the habit of pulling people's arms, just pull it, it's hard enough for her to come here. Wang Tui no longer refused, she held it casually, and the street soon came to an end, and they bought a lot of walnuts, apples and pears.

"Go back," Mr. Wang said.

At this time, Li Min was in high spirits, and she pointed to the mountain in the distance, "How beautiful you look, it's like an ink painting, let's go and see where we go." ”

A sheep's gut path leads to the mountain pass. Looking into the distance, this is a small county town surrounded by mountains, in the sense, the place where the small county town is located should be a valley, the valley is flat and uneven, the first place is high, just like a terrace, the small county occupies a geographical advantage, this should also be regarded as the largest open land, out of the open land, the surrounding is very deep, seven horizontal and eight vertical ditches. Unfortunately, the ditch was dry, and there was not a drop of water, and the red earth and stones were exposed. Halfway up the mountain, there are a few patches of green, which are wheat fields, which add a little life to the bare col.

Walking down the sheep intestine path, stumbling, Li Min walked very unsteadily, because her high-soled leather boots were really not suitable for walking on the mountain road, and she couldn't help frowning, as if she was going to retreat.

Wang Tui looked at her and smiled and said: "If there are trees all over the mountain, and there is clear water in this ditch, and this road is all paved with bluestone slabs, the scene will be beautiful." ”

"Wishful thinking, you, this is a poor mountain, and there is not even a little bad water. As she spoke, she pouted, didn't ask Wang Tui, and pulled him back.

"Regret it, see how long you can hold on here," Wang said with a smile.

"What do you mean, you underestimate me," Li Min was very dissatisfied.

"Then what are we doing here?"

"Help them get rid of poverty and become rich, this is still a question. ”

"Yes, what should you do if you want to get rid of poverty and become rich?"

"What do you say?" Li Min asked rhetorically.

Wang Tui didn't answer her directly, "Look, how much is the chestnut we bought just now?"

"A piece of five. ”

"Then let me ask you again, how much does it cost to buy such a good chestnut from us?"

"At least eight dollars, why do you ask this? ”

"What are you doing, you still don't understand, if you transport the chestnuts here to us and sell them, won't you make a fortune?"

"You want to get beauty, can you transport this broken road?" Li Min scoffed at him.

"That's right, this broken road can't be transported, so let's repair the road, and if the road is repaired, it will be shipped out. ”

"You get money to build roads, you see this poor place, where does the money come from. ”

"If we have the money, what are we doing here? ”

"You mean let's go get some money. ”

"Yes, this is your task?" said Wang Tui with a smile.

"My mission? You're still embarrassed to laugh, what are you doing with this burden on me, you big man. ”

"Hehe, let's go, I'm kidding you," Wang Tui said with a smile.
