Zhou Quanshan is very credible, seeing such a big interest in front of him, he quickly decided to sponsor the two million yuan of funds for the road repair in Guihuaping Township, and transferred it to the account of the Guihuaping Township Finance Office, with this money, Yue Haohan temporarily does not worry about the lack of money for road repair, and it is much easier to do things with money, Yue Haohan discussed with Hou Ximing, and immediately improved the living standards on the construction site.

Since the start of the road construction, Yue Haohan has been focusing on the construction site, taking Fan Changhe, director of the Party and Government Office, or Li Haijun, the minister of armed forces, back and forth on several construction sites every day. Seeing that the Spring Festival is approaching day by day, the township mayor Hou Ximing began to get anxious again, according to the usual practice, before the Spring Festival, the township should prepare a part of the local products, go to the county, and pay New Year's greetings to the leaders of the county and the heads of relevant ministries, commissions and bureaus in advance, but these things have not had time to discuss in detail with Yue Haohan.

This morning, Yue Haohan just returned to the office from the construction site, Hou Ximing came in with a form in his hand, sat down on the sofa and said: "Secretary Yue, seeing that the Spring Festival is approaching, according to the practice of previous years, this time is to run in the county, and give New Year's greetings to the leaders of the relevant units and the county party committee and government in advance, which is also for the future work in all aspects of the township to be carried out, you see how we should prepare this year?" ”

Yue Haohan tapped lightly on the desk with his right hand, thinking, and after a while, he looked at Hou Ximing and asked, "Township Chief Hou, what was done in the township like these things in previous years?" What are the standards? ”

Hou Ximing replied: "In the past two years in Guihuaping, I have not done these things specifically, I find a way to buy some local products every year, and send them to the relevant leaders of the county CPPCC years ago." When I was in Shijiawan Town, when I was in charge of the organ, every year at this time, after discussing with the secretary and the mayor, I made a list, set a standard, and then purchased it according to the standard on the list, and delivered it all to the place before the Spring Festival holiday; This refers to the aspects that the secretary and the mayor need to deal with, and the other team members want to deal with their own counterpart units and think of their own methods. “

Yue Haohan sighed and said, "Why has the social atmosphere become like this now!" “

Hou Ximing smiled bitterly and said: "Secretary Yue, this is something that can't be helped, other towns and towns do this, if we don't follow the trend, it will be too different, besides, we also have to create a good external environment for the development of various tasks in the township next year." ”

Yue Haohan said: "Township Chief Hou, you first discuss a detailed method with Secretary Li Meili for this matter, and then we will have a breath at the team meeting and strive to handle this matter before the 29th of the lunar month." In addition, I also have an opinion, this year's people who go out to build roads, according to the head, each person will be divided into 10 catties of pork, from the road repair funds, according to the number of people in each village to participate in the road repair, the money will be allocated to the villages, so that the village can buy it, and the meat must be distributed to everyone before the Spring Festival; Even if the township pays New Year's greetings to these people, the big guy has been busy for almost a month in such a cold weather, and he should compensate a little. ”

Hou Ximing said: "Secretary Yue, I suggest that 10 catties of pork be converted into money at the market price and sent to the people who work, which is not only trouble-free, but also convenient, and the effect is better than directly dividing the meat." ”

Yue Haohan said: "Okay, just follow your opinion." ”

The two were discussing when a black Audi slowly drove into the courtyard of the township government; The township government rarely has such a high-end car arrived, was about to go to Yue Haohan's office to report to the deputy secretary of the party committee Li Mei, saw the car stopped, then greeted with a smile, just arrived at the car, Wu Meixia and Cheng Ziying got out of the car one after another, Li Mei smiled, looked back and forth on the two people, and asked: "May I ask the two of you are looking for?" ”

Wu Meixia replied with a smile: "We are here to send warmth to your Secretary Yue, is he here today?" ”

Wu Meixia's joke made Deputy Secretary Li Mei suddenly connect a certain nerve in her brain, Li Mei glanced up and down at Cheng Ziying again, then smiled enthusiastically and generously, and stretched out her right hand to make a gesture of please, and said: "Secretary Yue is discussing things with Township Chief Hou in the office, please two quickly, the courtyard is windy and a little cold." ”

Li Mei led the two to Yue Haohan's office. When Yue Haohan saw Cheng Ziying and Wu Meixia following behind Li Mei, he stood up from the seat with a smile and asked, "Why did you two come here?" Don't say hello in advance? ”

Wu Meixia glanced at Cheng Ziying, and then said with a smile: "What? Not welcome us? I wanted to give you, the big secretary, a call, but Ziying said, let's not tell you first, let you have a surprise, we can also come by the way to make a secret visit to see what you are busy with every day. ”

After greeting Wu Meixia, Yue Haohan pointed at Hou Ximing and introduced: "Ziying, Meixia, this is Hou Ximing, the head of our township. Then he introduced Li Mei and said, "This is Li Meili, deputy secretary of the party committee of our township. ”

After introducing Hou Ximing and Li Mei, Yue Haohan then introduced Hou Ximing and Li Mei: "This is my college classmate, Mr. Wu of Jianghan Meiying Fund Investment Company, Wu Meixia, and this is my girlfriend Cheng Ziying, who works at the Donghai Stock Exchange. ”

After introducing each other, Hou Ximing said a few polite words, and then resigned to arrange work, Li Mei asked Yue Haohan in an inquiring tone, and said: "Secretary Yue, how about I arrange a table in the "family" at noon?" Pick up the wind for the two younger sisters. ”

Yue Haohan said: "Okay, you go and prepare first, make it simple." ”

After lunch, Cheng Ziying and Wu Meixia wanted to go to the countryside to have a look, Yue Haohan said: "Now several management areas are building roads, the road is not easy to walk, your car chassis is low and you can't pass at all, if you want to go, you can only take our township government's broken jeep, don't look at our jeep broken, it is just right to run this mountain road." ”

Cheng Ziying said with a smile: "Then let's go to the village where the road is relatively flat and easy to walk, it doesn't matter if I take your jeep lane, the key is that Meixia can't be bumpy, Meixia has a baby in her belly." ”

Yue Haohan thought for a while and said, "Then let's go to Zhuzilin Village to have a look, the road leading to Zhuzilin Village is smoother, there are still many bamboos on the mountain, and the scenery is very good in winter." ”

After the discussion, Yue Haohan walked in front of the township jeep to lead the way, deputy secretary Li Mei and organizing committee member Ma Yufei sat in the Audi car, accompanied by Cheng Ziying and Wu Meixia, the car marched smoothly and slowly towards Zhuzilin Village, the road leading to Zhuzilin Village, although it is also a dirt road, but it has been renovated once in October, the road surface is paved with fine gravel, the Audi car shock absorption system is good, and you can't feel the bumps when you sit in it. The driver of the Audi car is a young woman, her name is Zheng Xiulan, who has been driving a taxi for many years, and after the company was established, Cheng Ziying asked Wu Meixia to hire it at a high price.

When the car approached Zhuzilin Village, through the car window, she could already see the large bamboo forests on the hillsides on both sides of the road, Cheng Ziying had never seen so many bamboos, and patted Zheng Xiulan on the shoulder in the back, asked Zheng Xiulan to stop the car, got out of the car and walked happily towards the bamboo forest on the hillside.

The mountains are full of green bamboo, which stands vigorously in this cold winter. Yue Haohan jumped down from the jeep, jogged and then followed, the color of the bamboo forest in front of him was all green, but the large area was not monotonous, giving people life in the cold winter, Cheng Ziying held a bamboo on the edge of the rock, and couldn't help but groan: "Insist that the green mountains are not relaxed, the roots are in the broken rocks, and the thousands of blows are still strong, and the wind from east to west, north and south." After chanting, he looked at Yue Haohan, beckoned, and asked with a smile: "Haohan, does this bamboo look like you?" ”

Yue Haohan smiled, walked a few steps, arrived at Cheng Ziying's side, and replied: "How can I compare with Mr. Zheng Banqiao, who was in the Qianlong period, did the county order of Fan County and Wei County in Shandong, and made remarkable political achievements. I am just a township cadre who has not entered the stream, and I am too far from Mr. Itabashi. “

Cheng Ziying said with a smile: "I didn't say Zheng Banqiao, I meant that this bamboo can grow so tall in the cracks of this rock!" ”

At this time, Wu Meixia, who followed from behind, raised her head and looked up at the bamboo forest, and said with emotion: "Bamboo, Xiuyi has charm, slender and soft, evergreen and undefeated, high wind and bright festival, noble and vulgar, full of vitality, vigorous and upward, I appreciate their unyielding loyalty the most." Their beautiful quality of "lonely cliffs and valleys, with this Lingyun Qi", and their noble character of being gentle and rising, soft and strong, always inspire us to struggle! ”

Cheng Ziying laughed "giggles, giggles", patted Wu Meixia's shoulder, and said, "Okay, Meixia, please don't be sour anymore, your teeth will be sour for a while, you're about to become a mother, you think you're still on the college campus." ”

The group frolicked in the bamboo forest on the side of the road for a while, and then came down, sat in the car and headed forward, and the car moved forward for a while, and arrived at the entrance of Zhuzilin Village, Yue Haohan was in the jeep, and saw Li Fajun's father Li Mantang carrying a piece of pork in his hand, walking forward, Yue Haohan stopped the car, jumped out of the car, and shouted: "Uncle Mantang, where did you cut such a big piece of pork?" ”

Li Mantang turned around, saw that it was Yue Haohan, and replied with a smile: "It's Secretary Yue, you are a rare guest, hurry, go to the house to sit, it's cold outside, today the dog Dan's family killed pigs, I went to buy a piece, at my house at night, let's eat radish stewed meat." ”

Li Mantang's home is at the entrance of the village, with four red brick houses, plus two partial houses, and a fish pond with an area of two acres in front of the main house, all surrounded by green bamboo, and the environment is very elegant; Many feng shui gentlemen have said that the feng shui here is excellent, and there will be big people, and the only deficiency is that there is a hundred-year-old tree on the side of the bamboo forest behind the house, and there is a possibility of injury when committing a rush. Li Mantang didn't care at first, since Li Famin's accident, Li Mantang asked someone to cut down the wood tree behind him.

Li Mantang enthusiastically let the group to his home, where a pot of red charcoal was burning, and Li Mantang's wife, Li Famin's widow, and three children were roasting around the brazier.

Li Mantang hung the pork on the wall, pulled over the bamboo chairs, let everyone sit by the brazier, and then instructed his wife and daughter-in-law to pour tea for everyone. Cheng Ziying and Wu Meixia did not sit down immediately, but curiously admired the various bamboo furniture placed in Li Mantang's house.

Cheng Ziying touched a delicate bamboo rattan chair and asked Li Mantang, "Uncle Mantang, are these chairs processed by yourself?" ”

Li Mantang replied with a smile: "Yes, these are all made by ourselves, almost every household in our village can do it, and they all have the technology to process bamboo products. ”

After a while, Li Famin's lover pulled over a bamboo coffee table, put it on the edge of the brazier, poured a cup of tea for everyone and put it on it, Yue Haohan took two sips of tea, put down the cup and asked, "Uncle Mantang, is Head Li coming back for the Spring Festival this year?" ”

Li Mantang replied: "I called a few days ago, saying that there are many things going on in the army, and he will not come back for the Spring Festival this year, and he will take time to come back to visit his family after the Spring Festival." ”

Yue Haohan turned his head and introduced Cheng Ziying next to him, and said: "Ziying, Uncle Mantang's eldest son is called Li Fajun, who is the head of the Beijing army, and is in the same unit as the eldest brother of Weiguo, they are comrades-in-arms. ”

Cheng Ziying said in surprise: "Really! Such a coincidence? This world is really big when it is big, and it is really small when it is small. ”
