Along the street, Liu Dingyi, accompanied by Ling Han and others, walked all the way to the center of the county, stopped and stopped, talked about it, a handful of snot and tears, the eyes of the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee were red, and the people behind were all gloomy faces, and many people accompanied Secretary Liu to wipe their tears, which was sad enough.

Seeing the office building of the brilliant county party committee and county government axe in Jinbi, Liu Dingyi began to tremble all over, "What a magnificent building, it shouldn't be built here...... This is the imperial palace of Runshui County, right? Yes? Yes, that's great! Ling Han, let's not go in, let's take the old man to the county party committee guest house to have a look...... Is Quanrunshui County just this eye-catching building in the new era? Have you turned it all? ”

Ling Han nodded, "It's all turned, Secretary Liu, you are right, there are only these two new century buildings in Runshui County, and the others are original historical heritage, including every ordinary person in the county, they even have thoughts and concepts stuck in the seventies of the last century, the cadres of Runshui County have made great contributions, and the whole of China can't find a second historical original city, Secretary Liu, after visiting the county, I suddenly found that my approach this time was a little impulsive, aside from the inaction of our cadres, I can't figure out if they're really too stupid or if they're doing it on purpose, what kind of idea they're trying to express? Are they playing with hundreds of thousands of people here? After nine years of poverty alleviation, a small road that may slide at any time has been built, two new buildings have been built, and a bunch of feudal and backward aborigines have been educated, and they are committing crimes, and they are despising party discipline and national law, and they are despised for society and the common people, and I feel both sad and funny......

Liu Dingyi pinched Ling Han's hand, and used his hand as a crutch along the way, in fact, his legs trembled angrily, it wasn't for Ling Han's support, he couldn't walk, after listening to Ling Han's words, he also smiled bitterly, "Mayor Ling, I support your approach, I want to see if the cadres of Runshui are fake and ignorant, if they are really so ignorant, it is still excusable, if you engage in corruption under the guise of ignorance, I want to support you to shoot people, investigate, investigate thoroughly...... Secretary Wei, your Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection is in charge, give me an immediate investigation, the Public Security Department cooperates, arrest me for the criminal evidence, interrogate me, give me a layer of planing, dig me little by little, let me see where the nearly 900 million poverty alleviation funds are? ”

Liu Ding's breath was stiff, his face was pale, everyone could see that this old secretary was really angry, a 'directive' in the past misled the cadres of the two county party committees, can he feel better? He was even more angry at these county leaders who misinterpreted his speech, the following people are clearly taking advantage of loopholes, and they really dare to do this, which can be described as bold, thinking of that Liu Changdong, his hand trembled even more.

Indeed, the building of the county party committee guest house is the same as the county party committee office building, the golden wall is brilliant, and it is extremely incongruous here, Liu Dingyi stood in front of the building for a long time, and his legs were heavy and he couldn't move his steps, Ling Han said at this time: "Secretary Liu, all the way, go in and take a rest." ”

"I don't have the face to go in...... You accompany me, let's find a small restaurant in the county seat to sit down, the problem of moisturizing water can't be solved, so I'll always live here...... Don't come with you, what should you do, it's enough to have Mayor Ling with me......" An old man and a young man turned around and walked along the street towards the north, only Tie Bing followed behind them, and the other leaders didn't dare to follow, and the first secretary was attacked.

Luo Shicai and Ma Yuru in the group of cadres glanced at each other, at this moment they clearly felt that Huiping's innocence was about to change, Liu Dingyi's face clearly wrote his disappointment with Huiping, and his disappointment with Huiping's team was actually his disappointment with Meng Chengxiang, no wonder Lao Meng pretended to be sick and didn't come.

Meng Chengxiang is faceless, what should he do if he doesn't pretend to be sick? Follow to see the sad face of the old secretary? How can he explain it? How to explain it?

Liu Dingyi left one by one, the highest official rank present was Wei Shuren, deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, Secretary Dingyi also said just now, the problem of Runshui is to be thoroughly investigated, then thoroughly investigated, Wei Shuren personally presided over the overall situation, Wang Zhaoguo, deputy director of the Provincial Public Security Department, assisted, issued a series of orders, the following people have taken action, Zeng Xiangming is the leader of the investigation team appointed by Huiping City, and naturally became the main investigation leader, he personally instructed the investigators of the Commission for Discipline Inspection to carry out an investigation of the Ninth Standing Committee of Runshui County. The Municipal Finance Bureau, the Public Security Bureau, the Supervision Bureau, the Work Style Correction Office, the courts, the procuratorate, the Statistics Bureau, the Audit Bureau, and the relevant comrades of the banks have received notices one after another and are ready to go to Runshui to carry out an investigation...... Zhou Xigang, who was mixed in the crowd, secretly wiped his sweat, Zhou Guangmao beside him was no better, his brother-in-law was also a section-level cadre in Runshui County, and he knew how much sweetness he had eaten, so his vest was oozing cold sweat, and at this moment he also lost interest in fighting for power and profit, if he couldn't pass this level in front of him, he didn't have to talk about anything, looking at the back of Ling Han who was walking with Liu Ding in the distance, he gritted his teeth.

…… Xiuniang is 21 years old this year, is the most beautiful and beautiful girl in this area of Runshui North Road, every day there are people who come to the door to propose, the threshold is about to kick rotten, and therefore the small restaurant business opened by Xiuniang and her father is good, Xiuniang plays inside and outside, very shrewd, she is a small shopkeeper of a small restaurant, since the county released a weekend, the small restaurant is very lively every weekend, usually people are busy with business is also light, when there is nothing to do, Xiuniang will take a broom to clean inside and out, the shop is soil, can be swept clean, tables, chairs and benches are old and understandable, Repaired and repaired, repaired and repaired, a lot of goods are preserved during the Republic of China, simple and clean, the ground in the store is still paved with large bluestone bricks, it is inevitable that there are places in the depressions, the first two years the small shop also expanded its business, borrowed 10,000 yuan from the "credit cooperative", turned the backyard of the small hotel into a "hotel", rectified out a dozen or so rooms, for some guests to live temporarily, but the business is quite bleak, Xiuniang is very helpless about it.

When I was a child, I also liked to study, but my father said that there was no high education in the county, and I heard that the college entrance examination was resumed in 77, but our county has not recovered, I don't know why, anyway, those who went out of the water have never come back, maybe it is not peaceful outside, and the child has collapsed.

There are few people in the county who can watch TV,That kind of luxury is only available to people who are officials,It is said that the reception signal is not very good,There is nothing to watch,People in the county want to have TV must go through the review of the relevant departments in the county,The audit fee alone is very expensive,Ordinary people dare not buy,Can't afford it,It's better to watch a movie once a month,As for the things that are played on the movie,Those flower worlds,The leaders said it was fake。

Xiuniang thought about marrying an official in the future, but she was a peasant and wanted to marry into a wealthy eunuch, but her father said that it was a dream.

I haven't seen guests from other places all year long, but today there are three of them, an old man and two young men.

The youngest man is really good-looking, Xiuniang stole a cigarette to look at him, blushed when she looked at it, and her heart pounded in a panic, this life is really handsome, I don't know how many times more handsome than those little students in the movie, after she beckoned the guests to sit down, she was busy serving tea, and called her father to start the stove.

The three guests who came in were naturally Ling Han, Liu Dingyi, and Tie Bing, seeing the delicate and delicate girl's joyful work, the three of them all sighed, this store is really clean, but there is no one guest except for the three of them, and there is a strong taste of the old society, a chair and a table here, a bowl and a cup are far away from the new century, including the people here, are simple and move you, their eyes are pure, but not without a trace of guard, maybe because the guests are wearing' Strange costumes', it's okay to open a restaurant, but the color of general vigilance is stronger.

"Little girl, don't be busy, come, sit down and chat with the uncle, okay?" Liu Dingyi cordially greeted Xiuniang.

How do you know that Xiuniang has a very good opinion of him, dresses so casually, and combs the hair of a 'landlord and old wealth', he is not a good person at first glance, and he said with a straight face: "You eat your food, I do my business, what is there to nag?" I didn't make any money from your nagging, don't nag ......"

Xiuniang glared at Liu Dingyi at the end, and immediately Ling Han and the three of them laughed, "Secretary Liu, let's wear strange clothes." ”

Liu Dingyi lowered his head, stretched out his hand and shook his clothes, and said with a wry smile: "How did these bastards of the Runshui County Party Committee educate good people like this?" ”

"You, old comrade, do you want to be a counter-revolutionary? The county leaders are also what you can scold? I can warn you once, and then I will sue the police to arrest you, hum ......"The more Xiuniang looks at these three people, the more problematic it is, I heard that many city leaders came yesterday, saying that they came down to inspect the work, and this morning they were still making a commotion, and they didn't have time to go out to see the appearance of the city leaders, but I heard that the city leaders were wearing strange clothes."

Ling Han turned his head and smiled at Xiuniang, "You are the proprietress of this store, right?" Scold...... Can you tell us what you think leadership looks like? That is, what should they wear, what should they say, and what should they usually do? Aren't there many factories in the county? I've heard that the production power is not low, like what cigarette factory is still producing 'Daqianmen' and 'Shanghai' these inferior cigarettes, are these cigarettes selling very well? ”

Xiuniang obviously looked at Ling Han differently, this was a preconceived first impression of worship, in her heart she didn't want to treat Ling Han as a bad guy and a counterrevolutionary, she felt that such a handsome person should be saved, instead of continuing to let him sink and let him go to the opposite position of the people.

"I can tell you, there are some things that can't be said nonsense......" Xiuniang looked at the door of the hotel very vigilantly, and then lowered her voice and said: "Our county leaders said, like you dress like this, they are all not rigorous style, they are to be re-educated by the party, you can't lose the old revolutionary tradition of hard and simple, the county leaders also said, clothes are not patched, it is a shameful waste, ah, look at the iron clothes, here, here are patches, elbows, knees, buttocks, these places, are all patched, This can embody the style of hard work and simplicity......"

Liu Ding glanced at Ling Han and couldn't help but laugh again, Ling Han also shook his head and smiled bitterly, and he said again, "What's your name?" ”

"Me? My name is Li Xiuniang, what about you? What's your name? Xiuniang obviously had a good impression of Ling Han, not only telling him his name, but also asking rhetorically.

"My name is Ling Han...... Oh, Comrade Xiuniang, your thinking is too outdated, you Runshui people have been closed in this small world for more than 30 years, you should go out to see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, the cadres of Runshui County have made a county of more than 100,000 people like this, they are committing crimes, 30 years, 30 years, Runshui people have not gone out? It's an incredible achievement, it's unbelievable! ”

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, be careful that the police have arrested you, is it so easy to go out? There are regulations in the county, if you have to be politically tried or something, you are allowed to go out only after you pass, and you are said that the outside world is not very peaceful, and there are many thieves, we are already poor, and it is not even worse to meet thieves? He also said that the mountain road was not easy to walk, and my father said that if he wanted to go out, he would risk his life, and if he went out without permission, he would be sentenced if he was caught. ”

Seeing Xiu Niang's bluffing expression, Ling Han and Liu Dingyi both smiled bitterly again, Xiu Niang looked at the cigarette Ling Han took out at this time, it was still the kind of legendary filter, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Wow, this is a cigarette that only the leaders smoked, how dare you smoke such a good cigarette?" The big front door of the county cigarette factory and the Shanghai brand cigarettes are selling very well, some time ago, the county leaders said that there was a war with which one, the economic crisis came again, and the price of tobacco, tea and alcohol also rose, and the front door is now 7 cents a box, and my father can't afford to smoke it, oops...... The police are here, you are about to hide your cigarettes......"

As he was talking, the two county police officers rushed in, and they saw the hardcover Yellow Crane Tower on the table at a glance, and one of them stepped over and reached out and grabbed the cigarette case, "Okay, Lao Li's restaurant harbors the capitalist roaders, and they actually dare to smoke filter cigarettes, but it's against the sky, confiscated ...... Xiu'er, where did these three guys come from? That's so bold...... Hey, what about you, take out your work card and take a look, what are you doing......"

The attitude of the county public security was very unfriendly, while putting the cigarette into his own pocket, he also raised his eyebrows and yelled at Ling Han and them, and said with a very frightening momentum, Xiuniang was busy playing the round, and said with a smile: "It's Ma Gong'an and Liu Gong'an, you guys are patrolling the streets again today, why have you changed your clothes in the past two days?" ”

Another public security officer surnamed Liu glanced at Ling Han and them contemptuously, and smiled at Xiuniang: "Our Xiuniang is beautiful again, heh...... Speaking of changing clothes, it's really troublesome, this dress is black balls, that is like our white uniform? This guy can't be seen on the street until he stands in the dark, but there is no way, the county leader said two days ago that there are big cadres in the city who come down to inspect the work, and all the public security must be dressed in new clothes. ”

Liu Dingyi's face was gloomy, and the white public security uniform that Liu Gong'an said in his mouth was still the earliest public security uniform in the last century, with a white shirt and blue pants.

Ma Gongan said at this time: "In the past two days, there have been big cadres inspecting the county, you idlers and others should not go to the street casually, pay attention to the overall image of our county, look at what you are wearing?" It affects the appearance of the county, hurry up and take out your work card......"

Ling Han smiled at this time, "The two public security officers have worked hard, we are businessmen, we don't have any work permits, this time I came to Runshui to see if we can find some business to do, and I also ask the two public security officers to raise their noble hands and be accommodating, heh...... Do you want to pay some fines and forgive us once? ”

"Well...... this" Ma Gong'an glanced at Liu Gong'an, and when he saw him nodding lightly, he said: "Forget it, for the sake of you being a foreigner, let you go for a while, pay a fine of 100 yuan per person, and don't go out on the street in these two days, live in the store obediently, do you hear clearly?" ”

"Huh...... Okay, okay, let's stay here until the big cadres finish inspecting and then come out. Ling Hanyan glanced at Tie Bing, Tie Bing immediately took out three hundred yuan and handed them to the Ma Gong'an, thinking that they had also seen the new RMB in Ma Gong'an, they looked at it and went to their pockets, took out the hardcover Yellow Crane Tower, and threw it on the table, "The cigarette is returned to you, this kind of cigarette should be put in your pocket, don't take it out, this is a mistake, understand?" Lao Liu, you tear up the ticket for them, let's go and take a look elsewhere......" Liu Gong'an took out the so-called fine bill from his pocket, lay on the table and filled in the amount of three hundred yuan, did not sign, put a black handprint on his finger spit, and then tore it off and handed it to Tie Bing, what is this? Is this a fine? actually pressed a spit handprint, and Liu Ding rolled his eyes when he saw it.

After the two policemen left, Xiuniang breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Ling Han with more appreciation, and said: "You are so clever, you actually know how to pay the fine, or you are good-looking today, alas, you people who do big business are rich, and you don't blink an eyelid for three hundred yuan, and our small shop can't make three hundred yuan in a month, by the way, do you really want to live?" Great, I'll pack up two clean houses for you to live in, twelve yuan a day, including food and accommodation, the price is fair, and our Li Ji Hotel in the county is also relatively cheap, do you think it's okay? ”

Twelve? Accommodation and food? It's too cheap...... Xiuniang went to the kitchen to urge the meal, it is not easy to get the business, this month has not yet opened, her father is cooking on the fire in the back stove, her mother is washing vegetables and picking up vegetables, the two of them are busy sweating, but they are all smiling.

When the rice was served, Ling Han knew why the price of food and accommodation was so low, the vegetable rice was so simple that people's eyes were straight, six nests, a plate of wild vegetables, a few green onions, a small bowl of bean flour sauce, and nothing else...... Liu Dingyi's old eyes were red again, and he picked up the nest head and gnawed it silently.

The three of them were eating here, Xiuniang was lying on the counter, holding her chin with her slender hand, staring at Ling Han intently, the more she looked, the more handsome she became, how pleasing to the eye, when her mind was full of fantasies, she couldn't help but show sadness, I'm afraid that such handsome men are not good-hearted, right?

For two days in a row, Ling Han and Liu Dingyi walked around the county town accompanied by Tie Bing, and went back to Li Ji Hotel for dinner and accommodation at noon and evening, Ling Han also asked Xiuniang to be their 'guide', saying that they would give 100 yuan for a day of shopping, Xiuniang almost fainted, 100 yuan, it's incredible.

After dinner this night, Liu Dingyi and Ling Han sat and chatted under the big tree in the backyard, the small square table and half lying on the bamboo chair, the casual tone was still good, a few teas, a plate of melon seeds, three or five half-baked pears, the mountain air was extremely fresh, Liu Dingyi fell in love with this place in the past two days.

Xiuniang ran to the backyard when she was fine, and followed Ling Han for two days, and her vision seemed to have broadened a little, but she still couldn't accept the strange things they said, but she still had a yearning, and the frogs sitting in the well were eager to jump out one day to see a wider world.

"Brother Ling, are you still shopping tomorrow? I'll take you to visit the temple of the mountain, where the supply of the great immortal, it has blessed us with the safety of several generations of moisturizing water, every season, everyone has to go to the offering, there are good places to go on the mountain, but don't think I want to make your money, you gave me 200 yuan in the past two days, I don't want money, I will accompany you in the future, my mother also said that tomorrow kill an old hen to improve your food, my father went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to bring back two bottles of red star two pot heads, this is a good wine, Yanjing leaders drink ah......"

"It's good wine, Xiuniang, you are smart and clever, why didn't you get into a school, but you were wronged in the county," Liu Dingyi sighed.

"What to take the exam, I've taken high school courses by myself, my father said that the county has not resumed the college entrance examination, and it's useless to learn culture, just be literate, our family is a farmer, and women can't be officials, it's good to marry a good family in the future, I heard that the official family has TV to watch,"

Liu Dingyi laughed, "Then you will marry an official, and you will also be an official's wife, or you will recognize my old man as a grandfather......"

"It's not good, my father said that you are not like a good person, and you are all local tyrants and inferior gentry, landlords and old wealth, won't it affect me when you are defeated?"

Ling Han and Tie Bing couldn't help laughing, Liu Dingyi sighed and said: "Ling Han, listen, I am a local tyrant and a poor gentry landlord and old wealth, just because I combed my hair like this, I was deducted such a hat, it is really wronged, by the way, Xiuniang, do you think Ling Han is a good person?" ”

Xiuniang glanced at Ling Han, her face flushed slightly, and said, "Yes, Brother Ling is a righteous gentleman at a glance, that is, ...... It's just that the composition of the merchants is not good, if the workers are good, our country is a proletarian power established by the workers, peasants and soldiers...... Oh, Brother Ling, I'm sorry, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about most businessmen, you, you're a good person, I can see that. ”

"Ha......" Liu Dingyi laughed, "This is also a bit balanced, you are a copper-smelling businessman, I am a cunning landlord and old wealth, there is no good thing, ha...... Let's take it down a day later, by the way, Xiuniang, what kind of person does the iron soldier look like? Tell us about it? ”

Xiuniang glanced at it, the iron soldier was cold and cold, the kind of hard man, not smiling, and his eyes were sharp, she couldn't help but say: "He is a thug, a dog leg of the landlord and old wealth, this kind of person has no brains, he will bite whoever you ask him to bite, you see him with a sideways face, staring at him......"

Tie Bing began to roll his eyes after glaring, let's fight it, and it has become a dog's leg, a biting dog's leg, I am not wronged.

Liu Dingyi breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Ling Han deeply, "Ling Han, when I came to moisten water seven years ago, I didn't find that the problem was so serious, blame me for not having contact with the masses at that time, how many seven years are there in this life?" What a good girl, the ideology is more than 30 years behind this era, Ling Han, I want to take responsibility for the problem of moisturizing water, I am also old, there are young cadres like you in New China to struggle, I am still relieved, how to run water out of the sky of history, it depends on you, the old man gives you resolute support, you let go and do it, I will stand up when the sky falls. ”

In the end, Liu Dingyi wiped a handful of sad tears, looking at Xiuniang's eyes full of guilt and pity, Ling Han didn't speak, nodded vigorously, Xiuniang couldn't figure out why this landlord always wiped his tears, and always loved to be a 'big cadre'? Who the hell is he?
