The so-called canteen is actually a restaurant. In the rural areas of Pinan County, people are accustomed to calling restaurants canteens, just as they are accustomed to calling the head of the village committee the head of the village.

With Lin Yuanli leading the way, Lin Yuanfang quickly found the canteen, which was a red brick house with reading power, located on the side of the road, with the four big characters "Fangzhuang Canteen" written on it in red paint. Outside the cafeteria, a shed was built with asbestos tiles, and a few tables were set up under the shed, and a few tables of people were shouting and punching.

Lin Yuanfang asked, "Which one is your village chief?" ”

Lin Yuanli squinted his eyes and looked under the greenhouse, and said, "No, he usually drinks inside." "A bamboo curtain hangs at the door of the cafeteria, dividing the house and the greenhouse into two worlds.

Lin Yuanfang nodded, entered the greenhouse, and led Lin Yuanli to the bamboo curtain. At this time, a person stood up at a table under the greenhouse, and greeted Lin Yuan: "Yo, isn't this Cadre Lin?" ”

This person ran out as he spoke, took out a box of 853 cigarettes, handed one to Lin Yuanfang, and said with a smile: "You, a big cadre of the Planning Bureau, don't work in the bureau, what are you doing here with us?" ”

"Lao Hou, is that you? Why are you here? Lin Yuanfang didn't take the 853 handed over by Lao Hou, he waved his hand, took out a box of Hongtashan from his pocket, handed one to Lao Hou, and said, "853 is so strong, I can't get used to it." You taste me. ”

The Hou Jianjun in front of him is the cousin of Lin Yuanfang's high school classmate, and he is also from Fangzhuang Village. Speaking of which, this Hou Jianjun is also a capable person, bought a small four-wheeled tractor to run transportation, saved some money in his hand, and built a two-story small building in Chengguan Town last year. At that time, the architectural planning permit was led by the high school classmate to the Planning Bureau to find Lin Yuanfang for approval.

"Ho, Hongta Mountain? In the end, it is a big cadre, and the cigarettes he smokes are high-level, and today we are also stained. Hou Jianjun put the 853 in his hand to the root of his ear, stretched out his hand to take Lin Yuanfang's Hongta Mountain, sniffed it under his nose, and said with a smile: "I am from Fangzhuang Village, have you forgotten?" ”

Lin Yuanfang worked in the Planning Management Section of the Planning Bureau, and was responsible for planning and approval, when he heard that his classmates said that Hou Jianjun was his cousin, and he helped him out, and drank a drink afterwards, where do you remember where Hou Jianjun is from? But he nodded and said, "yes, I remember." He glanced at the bamboo curtain not far away, and was about to ask Hou Jianjun if Director Wang of the Fangzhuang Village Committee was inside, but Hou Jianjun's eyes fell on Lin Yuanli behind him:

"Yuanli, why are you with Cadre Lin?"

Hou Jianjun is also a well-known capable person in Fangzhuang Village, not only built five large tiled houses at home, but also built a two-story small western-style building in the county seat. When it comes to Hou Jianjun in the village, others are envious to death. Lin Yuanli didn't expect a capable person like Hou Jianjun to rush over when he saw his younger brother, and he was very proud for a while, and blurted out: "He is my own brother, why can't I be with him?" ”

"Huh? Cadre Lin is your own brother? Yuanli, your mouth is so tight! There is a younger brother who is a big cadre in the Planning Bureau and doesn't tell us, because he is afraid that we will touch your light, right? Hou Jianjun was really taken aback, he didn't expect that Liu Chengwen, an honest man who couldn't kick a fart with three feet, and the younger brother of his daughter-in-law would be a cadre in the Planning Bureau.

"Hey, that's it! I don't even know about such a close relationship! Hou Jianjun shook his head again and again: "It should be beaten, it should be beaten!" Yuanli, this is like not being an outsider, if there is anything going on at home in the future, squeak at me, don't always let Cadre Lin run around! ”

Lin Yuanli's face was even more radiant, because her family was poor, she was not less blind in the village. didn't expect that as soon as his younger brother came, even Hou Jianjun, a powerful person, would rush over to build a relationship......

"Then I'll thank you for my sister first!" Lin Yuanfang shook Hou Jianjun's hand and asked, "You Wang Village Chief, are you inside?" ”

"Hey, you said that it's your own people, your own people, what are you doing politely? Are you looking for Village Chief Wang? I'll take you! Hou Jianjun was shaken by Lin Yuanfang's hand, and he was very excited. He has seen Lin Yuanfang's ability with his own eyes, when he built a two-story building in Chengguan Town, this was not allowed to be built and that was not allowed to be built, so that the bricks and tiles that he pulled over were piled up on the ground in the wind and rain for more than half a year, and then his cousin led him to the Planning Bureau to find Lin Yuanfang, Lin Yuanfang just helped to say a word, and within a few days, all the formalities were completed, and his two-story small western-style building was brushed and brushed. In the end, the big cadres in the county are terrible! At this time, I heard that Lin Yuanfang was looking for Village Chief Wang, how could he not lead the way in front with diligence?

"Eldest sister, you are waiting outside." Lin Yuanfang explained to Lin Yuanli, and then followed Hou Jianjun inside. With Hou Jianjun leading the way, Lin Yuanfang felt that it was better for the eldest sister to wait outside. After all, Lin Yuanli is the party concerned, and with her present, there are some things that Lin Yuanfang can't say to Wang Fushun.

"You...... Be careful. Lin Yuanli said as he dragged Lin Yuanfang's arm. Wang Fushun is the soil emperor of Fangzhuang Village, and he usually shows off his might, but Lin Yuanli is really afraid that his younger brother will suffer.

"Don't worry!" Lin Yuanfang gently patted the back of the eldest sister's hand and turned to go in.

Lift the bamboo curtain and enter the cafeteria. There was a lot of space inside, there were four tables, the other three were empty, only five people sat at the table by the window, and in the middle was a person under forty years old, with a boxy face, leaning on the back of the chair in a big way, holding a toothpick in his hand and picking his teeth. To his left sat a man, bald, burly, and in his fifties, whispering something to the Chinese face. There was a smile on the corner of his face, and he nodded lightly while picking his teeth.

Lin Yuanfang followed behind Hou Jianjun, his eyes fell on the face of the national character, thinking that the face of the national character was Wang Fushun, the director of the village committee of Fangzhuang Village, but he didn't expect Hou Jianjun to come to the bald man, and said with a smile: "Village chief, excuse me." ”

Wang Fushun was about to speak, but when he saw Hou Jianjun leading a twenty-four or five-year-old young man in, he couldn't help but sink his face, knocked on the table with his hand and said, "Hou San, don't you see what the occasion is?" Bring people in! ”

While speaking, Wang Fushun glanced at the face of the national character, for fear that the national character face would be displeased. The face of the national character didn't seem to hear anything, his eyelids didn't lift, and he was concentrating on picking his teeth unhurriedly.

If it was in normal times, Wang Fushun would not put up a fight for Hou Jianjun, after all, Hou Jianjun is a well-known capable person in the village and a wealthy household, but the situation is a little different today.

Turtle shape! What a stinky shelf is a rotten village chief! Hou Jianjun scolded in his heart. He has been running and transporting in the city and countryside all year round, and he has also seen some scenes, unlike ordinary villagers, who tremble when he sees Wang Fushun, the emperor of the soil, making a tone of voice.

"Village chief, I'm not a 'messy' leader!" Hou Jianjun pushed Wang Fushun without being soft or hard, pointed at Lin Yuanfang and said: "This is a big cadre of our county planning bureau, Lin Yuanfang." ”

Hearing the words "Planning Bureau", the hand of the national character face and teeth picking stopped, raised his eyes casually and swept Lin Yuanfang, and then lowered his eyes again, and concentrated on picking his teeth.

Lin Yuanfang was very surprised that this bald man was the village head, and in his opinion, the national character face was obviously a little more imposing. He touched out Hongta Mountain and said with a smile: "Director Wang, right?" Hello! I'm Lin Yuanfang from the Planning Bureau. Here, smoke a cigarette. As he spoke, he handed a cigarette to Wang Fushun.

"Planning Bureau?" Wang Fushun took the Hongta Mountain handed over by Lin Yuanfang and asked suspiciously. He doesn't remember what the village had to do with the planning bureau.

"Yes, Planning Bureau." Hou Jianjun said beside him: "Village Chief, didn't I tell you last time? The two-story building I built in Chengguan Town was approved by Cadre Lin! ”

"Hehe, it's all last year, why do you always say this? Come on, everybody smokes. Lin Yuanfang took Hongta Mountain and began to spread it one by one from his face.

"Oh!" Wang Fushun nodded, then turned his head and glanced at the face of the Chinese character beside him. This national character face is none other than Zhu Yuejin, deputy head of Yusi Township, who came to Fangzhuang Village today to inspect the work and stayed for dinner at noon. Wang Fushun looked at Hou Jianjun just now, because he was worried that Zhu Yuejin would be unhappy.

"What department does the Planning Bureau work in?" Zhu Yuejin lightly took the cigarette handed over by Lin Yuanfang and asked.

"Planning Technology Section." Lin Yuanfang said.

Zhu Yuejin let out an "oh", leaned back in his chair and smoked, and stopped talking. His eyes looked at the ceiling, but he thought about it in his heart, what a coincidence, I was about to go to the planning bureau to find someone, and the people from the planning bureau were sent to me, and I still worked in the planning technology department. Let's see what this young man is doing here.

Zhu Yuejin was transferred from the army and returned to Pinan County only last year, and he was transferred to Pinan County just two months ago to serve as deputy township head. A few days ago, his sister was from Chengguan Town, and she wanted to renovate her house into a three-story building, but the Planning Bureau couldn't approve it, so she found Zhu Yuejin. Zhu Yuejin was still thinking about who to find to help, but he didn't expect to meet Lin Yuanfang today

Wang Fushun has been observing Zhu Yuejin's expression, and seeing that Zhu Yuejin has nothing special to Lin Yuanfang, he has a bottom in his heart, he smoked and asked Lin Yuanfang: "That, what's the matter with you coming over?" ”

"I am Lin Yuanli's younger brother, I came to see her today, but I didn't expect that as soon as I entered the house, I saw a group of people carrying grain and pigs, and when I asked, I said that it was the debt team." Lin Yuanfang said: "So I came over and asked Director Wang, what is going on?" ”

Wang Fushun muttered in his heart, why hadn't he heard that Liu Chengwen had a brother-in-law who was a cadre in the county before? So he pretended to be confused at the village committee accountant next to him: "Is there such a thing?" ”

The accountant of the village committee naturally understood what he was going to say at this time, "Huh? What's going on? Yes, yes. He nodded again and again and said: "Liu Chengwen's family's retention has not been paid, and the deadline for payment stipulated by the village committee has passed. The debt collection team is supposed to enforce the coercive measures. ”

"So that's the case?" Wang Fushun seemed to understand the reason at this time, and said to Lin Yuanfang: "Cadre Lin, you see, it is your brother-in-law who did not pay the retention fee. Since you are here today, so be it. The penalty will not be enforced, and it will be enough for your brother-in-law to pay the retention money. The tone seemed to be a great favor for Lin Yuanfang.
