Chapter 29: Sincerity
After the wages were paid, the mood of the villagers was temporarily stabilized, and Chu Jianghe knew very well that if the wages were still not paid in another two months, the emotions of the villagers would be even more difficult to control than they are now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
During the entire process of paying wages, there were no accidents on the working days, and the account books in Chu Jianghe's hands and the things recorded in the hands of the villagers could be completely reviewed.
And most of the account books in Chu Jianghe's hands were recorded by Ergouzi himself, Chu Jianghe just took the time to check it, and now it seems that there are no accidents.
After the wages were paid, the villagers' enthusiasm for work improved significantly, but the material supplier came to collect the money again, but where did Chu Jianghe get so much money, and the arrears of the cement boss were nearly tens of thousands.
In the evening of that day, Chu Jianghe took a bottle that cost more than 7 yuan, and asked Ergouzi's father to bring back two bottles of Wuliangye from Shenzhen, plus two cigarettes of three yuan a piece and two bottles of wine that I don't know if they were authentic or fake, and went to the place where the town secretary Sun Jingzong lived in the town government.
Since Sun Jingzong was not from Chujiang Town, he was only assigned a room in the town government and Sun Jingzong lived alone.
It is rare to see Sun Jingzong return to his hometown, and most of them are family members who come to see him.
Chu Jianghe rode a bicycle and set off from home when it was about to get dark, and now in this society, it is not popular to give gifts to officials, mainly because it is not good to be seen, and Chu Jianghe has to consider this factor if he gives gifts to Sun Jingzong.
Therefore, it is a good choice when it is dark, at least there are fewer people to see, and there are few street lights in the town, so it is difficult to find out what Chu Jianghe is mentioning.
Even if you see Chu Jianghe carrying a black bag, you can't see what is in the bag, but when you see Chu Jianghe looking for Secretary Sun Jingzong, others don't dare to talk nonsense, they can only guess.
Besides, if you say bad things about the town secretary, if you get caught, it's not a joke.
Soon, Chu Jianghe came to the outside of Sun Jingzong's house and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened, and it was Sun Jingzong, the town secretary.
Sun Jingzong is in his forties, his skin is very dark, and his hair has turned white, unlike ordinary officials. At this time, he was wearing a white shirt, which should have been issued by the town government, a pair of three-point length shorts, and a pair of slippers to open the door.
When he saw Chu Jianghe, Sun Jingzong's expression was obviously stunned, he never expected that Chu Jianghe would come to him at this time.
Sun Jingzong's mind kept tumbling, and he soon thought of why Chu Jianghe came to find him.
"Secretary Sun, hello, I'm really sorry to disturb you so late. Chu Jianghe smiled.
"Jingzong, who knocked on the door, why don't you let people in. Just then, a voice rang out from behind the door.
is a female voice, Chu Jianghe guessed, it should be Sun Jingzong's lover.
"Jianghe, who do I think it is, come, come in. Sun Jingzong's originally dull face squeezed out a hint of a smile and said.
"Thank you, Secretary Sun. Chu Jianghe said with a smile, and then followed Sun Jingzong into the house, and closed the door at the same time.
"Hello Aunt Xue. Chu Jianghe greeted the woman when he entered the door, Chu Jianghe still knew Sun Jingzong's spouse, but he didn't know that the other party's full name was Xue.
"Jingzong, this young man is ......" As soon as he entered the room, he found an old-fashioned sofa, and a woman in her forties stood up and asked.
Compared with ordinary rural women, this woman has much fairer skin, a somewhat fat face, and a somewhat blessed figure, unlike a woman who works in the fields all year round.
"This is Chu Jianghe, the second son of Chu Jianjian. Sun Jingzong introduced.
"Oh, it's the child of construction, come and sit. Sun Jingzong's spouse Xue Juhua said with a smile.
"Aunt Xue, some time ago, a classmate of mine brought some things back from Shenzhen, and I just took time out tonight to give some to you and Secretary Sun to try. Chu Jianghe said, putting things aside and saying.
"Jianghe, look at you, come here, what else do you bring? Sun Jingzong hadn't spoken yet, but Xue Juhua said with a smile on her face.
When Sun Jingzong heard Chu Jianghe's words, he frowned, but at this time, Xue Juhua had already beckoned Chu Jianghe to sit down, and Sun Jingzong didn't know how to speak for a while, sighed slightly, and didn't speak.
"Jianghe, how old are you this year, do you have a partner?" After Chu Jianghe sat down, Xue Juhua asked.
Women's families, no matter what the big thing is, but they still care a lot about marriage, after all, Xue Juhua's daughter is almost the age of marriage.
"Twenty-three, Aunt Xue. "The Chu River channel.
"Yo, I'm not very old, but I'm at the age of getting married, I heard Jingzong say that your village will let you be responsible for the cement road project, and you will be so productive at a young age. Xue Juhua said.
"Aunt Xue, you have won the prize. Chu Jianghe said with a smile.
"By the way, last time Zhang Dahu's bastard boy came to your construction site to make trouble, fortunately you gave him a beating, and now he is honest at home, if only this bastard boy was as reliable as you. Xue Juhua suddenly mentioned Zhang Dahu's matter.
In fact, in the end, it was Chu Jianghe who paid the money to settle the matter, and in the end, Zhang Dahu gave Chu Shuili the medical expenses, but Chu Jianghe gave Zhang Dahu more than the medical expenses given to Chu Shuili.
Otherwise, Xue Juhua will give herself a good look today, Chu Jianghe doesn't believe it, as for why Chu Jianghe paid this money himself, there is no way, now Sun Jingzong is the mayor of the town, and sometimes, it is completely compelled to do so, after all, Chu Jianghe still has to rely on the other party in many aspects.
Chu Jianghe stayed at Secretary Sun Jingzong's house for less than fifteen minutes, then got up and said goodbye, and from beginning to end, Chu Jianghe did not mention the issue of the allocation of funds for cement roads.
Presumably, Sun Jingzong, as the secretary of a town, saw Chu Jianghe carrying things to the door, and he also knew what Chu Jianghe was for.
After Chu Jianghe left, Xue Juhua stepped forward and opened the black bag brought by Chu Jianghe.
"Yo, this Chu Jianghe made a lot of money, and he actually got you two bottles of Wuliangye, and... Where's the wine?" Seeing the wine, Xue Juhua suddenly smiled.
Xue Juhua has always paid attention to maintenance, before Sun Jingzong was the village chief, Xue Juhua did not work, he wandered around every day, in the past two years, Sun Jingzong became the town secretary, Xue Juhua is even more lazy to do.
However, Sun Jingzong's style is very hard, he basically does not accept gifts from others, and his salary is not much, which often makes Xue Juhua complain.
"Send it back to Chu Jianghe's family every day. Sun Jingzong snorted.
"What to send, I don't understand, Lao Sun, you said that I have been with you all my life, how did I say that I was also the most beautiful girl in the village back then, half of my life has passed, and I have never enjoyed happiness, now you are finally mixed with the town secretary, what is wrong with people sending some cigarettes and alcohol, do you have to send it back?" Listening to Sun Jingzong's words, Xue Juhua suddenly became angry and argued with Sun Jingzong.
Hearing Xue Juhua say this, Sun Jingzong was suddenly dumbfounded, paused and said: "Chu Jianghe has a purpose for giving gifts, he has no funds for that cement road, and this gift is for the funds of the cement road!"
"Just the cement road in his village?" Xue Juhua said in a daze.
"Hmm!"
"Has the town allocated funds?" Xue Juhua asked.
"Not a penny has been disbursed. Sun Jingzong said.
"Lao Sun, you haven't allocated a penny, this can be blamed on others, people have advanced money to do so much work for the government, and they have come to give you gifts for this project, what else do you want?" Xue Juhua snorted: "Anyway, you have to send you back Wuliangye and cigarettes, and I resolutely refuse to send wine." ”
"You...... This is Fan Mistake!" Sun Jingzong said angrily.
"What is Fan's mistake, he just wants a part of the project money he deserves, and he doesn't want you to give him more money, how can it be a mistake for Fan, don't think that when you become a town mayor, you think that I Xue Juhua is easy to deceive!" Xue Juhua was also angry and said angrily.
Being hit by Xue Juhua like this, Sun Jingzong suddenly withered, not to mention, Xue Juhua's words really made some sense.
It seems that the money Chu Jianghe asked for was just the project money, and he didn't ask himself to give more money, which doesn't seem like a fan mistake, right?
"Do you want to send it or not!" Sun Jingzong said.
"Do you like to send it or not, if you dare to send these two bottles of wine back, believe it or not, I am in a hurry with you. Xue Juhua snorted.
As she spoke, Xue Juhua took out these two bottles of wine from the bag and swaggered into the bedroom, leaving Sun Jingzong with an angry face sitting on the sofa.
After a long time, Sun Jingzong sighed slightly, and the room fell silent.
Chu Jianghe rode a bicycle with a flashlight in one hand and drove on the village road, no matter what, Sun Jingzong accepted the gift this time, but whether the money can be allocated depends on Sun Jingzong's thoughts.
Since taking over this job, Chu Jianghe has not stopped, and all kinds of things have happened frequently, which makes Chu Jianghe feel that the contractor is not so easy to do, not to mention that he is still building a project in his hometown, if he goes to other places, he doesn't know what will happen.
However, it is impossible to do anything at the beginning, even if Chu Jianghe had construction experience in his previous life, it may not be feasible, the times are different, and many things he faces are different.
Now that Chu Jianghe's sincerity has arrived, as for what Sun Jingzong should do, Chu Jianghe can't decide.
When I got home, it was almost nine o'clock, but it seemed that there were guests in the hall, and they hadn't slept yet, Chu Jianghe pushed the bicycle, put it in the courtyard, and walked into the hall.
"The Boss is back. Ergouzi walked out of the hall and said with a smile.
"Two... Xiao Ming is here. Chu Jianghe just wanted to call the second dog, but when he saw a person sitting in the hall, he hurriedly changed his words.
I saw that in the hall, on the other side of Chu Jianjian, there was a middle-aged man wearing trousers and shirts, looking at himself with a smile on his face, this guy is not Chu Ming's father, who is Chu Chenggong?
"Uncle Chenggong, you're here too. Chu Jianghe greeted with a smile.
