PS: Double monthly pass, ask friends for support.

Zhang Dabin received a "private" task assigned by Ye Zhiran and immediately asked the traffic police detachment for leave.

After being demobilized from the army, Zhang Dabin and Ye Zhiran finally mixed up with some people and became a family again. From the perspective of Ma Yanli's relationship, he and Ye Zhiran still have a bit of a relationship.

The relationship between Ma Yanli and Ye Zhiran is unknown to others, he has served as Ye Zhiran's full-time driver for many years, and he can still guess a little bit.

For him, obeying Ye Zhiran's orders almost became a conditioned reflex.

Before leaving, he thought it through.

The task is not difficult, but it is not easy to do it well. The first point is that Ye Zhiran asked him to be unaware of ghosts and ghosts, and not to show clues, Zhang Dabin felt that he could do it; The second point is to go deep into the masses in Zhuzhou County to understand the abnormal events in the process of the Shaozhu highway construction project and the law of the masses. Ye Zhiran didn't talk about specific people and things, so this is an open-ended task, and it all depends on his understanding and ability to adapt to changes well.

Zhang Dabin couldn't be sure what step he could take, and the only thing he could be sure of was four words: do your best.

In order to successfully complete this task, he prepared a good identity.

The old Zhang family has a craft handed down from their ancestors, which is pickled preserved eggs. Lao Zhang, including Lao Zhang's ancestors, has gone to the countryside to be a "preserved egg guest", picking up the tools and materials for pickling preserved eggs for the people, and charging some processing fees. Zhang Dabin can also use this craft, and he can pretend to be a "preserved egg guest" to go to the countryside decently.

On this day, he set off from the provincial capital early in the morning, took a car to Zhuzhou, and carried the burden of pickled eggs to the countryside around the city and countryside.

The countryside in the south of the Yangtze River is full of rivers. In Zhuzhou County, in addition to water, there are also mountains. The scenery is much better than in the north.

In the countryside, in the sixties and seventies, there were often sellers. These customers who sell goods collect both money and goods. Bartering mainly collects torn clothes, rags, cotton, scrap iron, etc., while the things sold are mainly maltose.

Naturally, this is a favorite of the little ones.

The rattle of the vendors was heard from the far away in the village, and the children flocked out. Dig out old goods from home and go to the seller to exchange sugar and eat.

After the eighties. Vendors rarely appear, mainly because they can't make a little money and make ends meet. Still, there are occasional popcorn guests. Fortune tellers, as well as guests with pickled eggs, appeared in the village, still the object of the children's chase.

When Zhang Dabin appeared in the countryside around the city and countryside with the load, a large group of children gathered around him to look. There is a businessman in the village who has always attracted attention.

When he was a child, Zhang Dabin also followed his father to do this kind of business. It belongs to people who have never eaten pork, but have seen pigs run. He took out the old rattle handed down from home, held it in his hand and shook it, and shouted with a cheeky face: "It's pickled eggs!" Preserved eggs—"

Hehe, quite a posture.

A group of children followed behind him and shouted in his voice: "Pickled eggs!" Preserved eggs—"

He shouted again: "Pickled eggs!" Preserved eggs—"

The child shouted, "Pickled eggs!" Preserved eggs—"

When we walked to the threshing floor in the middle of the village, a woman in her fifties and sixties asked, "Guest, how do you pickle these preserved eggs?" ”

Zhang Dabin understood the idiomatic language in the countryside, knew that he was asking the price, and replied: "Auntie." One dime five one. ”

"It's too expensive, a dime a piece, I'll pickle twenty."

Zhang Dabin smiled: "Okay, you are the first guest, open the door to the business at a discount." Just a dime. ”

Walk to the verandah of the family's house, remove the tools, put on the gloves, and prepare to give her pickled eggs.

Rural families generally raise some chickens and ducks. In addition to stir-frying, eggs are also used to marinate salted eggs. Because the method is simple, the rural people themselves will pickle; Preserved eggs are generally pickled with duck eggs, because strong acid is used, and rural people generally do not marinate them themselves.

After the pickling of these 20 eggs, women in the village came one after another with baskets, and opened the baskets in the corridor of the family's house, waiting in line for Zhang Dabin to pickle the preserved eggs.

Four or five women sat and chatted while waiting, and a sister-in-law in her forties asked, "Guest, it's rare to be such a young egg picker, how much money can you make a day?" ”

Zhang Dabin said casually: "Not necessarily, when the business is good, you can earn thirty or forty yuan." ”

"I don't think your accent is like a local, where are you?"

Zhang Dabin smiled: "My home is in Jianan City. ”

"Oh, that's a long way off, how did you get here?"

"I've traveled all over the places in Jianan, so I came to Shao'an to do business." Zhang Dabin replied calmly, and then changed his words and said: "Zhuzhou County is very well built!" Don't say anything else, just talk about this Shaozhu highway, drink! Cultivate freely. ”

The woman pouted and said, "You're a foreigner, so you don't know about this." ”

"What's wrong?"

The woman sighed and said: "When this road was built, the government said that the funds were not enough, and that it was necessary to raise funds, and the township sent a task to raise Wu Bai yuan to 1,000 yuan per person, saying that after the road was repaired, the road fee would be collected from vehicles from other places, and the money would be returned to us quickly, with 10 percent interest." Who knew that after only charging for a year and a half, it was stopped by the superiors, and we have not returned a cent of the money we paid. ”

"Didn't you charge for a year and a half?"

Another woman next to her said angrily: "We learned afterwards that the fund-raising funds were divided into three grades: the fund-raising funds subscribed by the county and township cadres were distributed at 0% annual interest, the enterprise fund-raising was distributed at 20% annual interest, and the funds raised by the masses were distributed at 0% interest. ”

Zhang Dabin pretended not to understand anything and asked, "Then you will never get your money back?" ”

"After the money for buying roads was not allowed, there were meetings in the townships and villages, saying that the central government stipulated that it was forbidden to raise funds and block roads to collect money. The township cadres said that the raised funds would be returned to us, but so far they have not received a penny. ”

"Sister-in-law of the Zhang family, you still don't know? The money will not be refunded, and it will be said to be deposited in the account to offset the agricultural tax payable until it is deducted. ”

"Really? Which bastard came up with this bad idea? ”

The woman who spoke before shook her head again and again, and said, "The current cadres are all about the same, how many of them are good things?" ”

"Yes, the bad guys get the power, and the good guys suffer. County Magistrate Gu is an example. ”

Zhang Dabin asked, "Who is County Magistrate Gu?" What happened to him? ”

Gu Wubin's strange death was once a sensation in Zhuzhou County, and the official version is that the executive deputy county magistrate accidentally fell into a fish pond after being drunk and drowned; There are many folk versions, and there are all kinds of them.

Several women suddenly said in a loud voice: "Guest, you are a foreigner, so you don't know. When the county magistrate Gu was repairing the road, he found that the big boss of the road repair had falsely reported the price, cut corners, and was very strict, and he heard that he had offended the top leader in the county. After being beaten to death, he was thrown into a fish pond, and he was stunned to say that he had lost his footing after drinking and drowned. The family was cremated without notifying. His wife has been suing, but I heard that she can't sue her. ”

The person next to him said, "How can you sue it?" I heard that the number one is a big official in the city, and now he is a deputy mayor, a powerful one. ”

Ye Zhiran didn't tell Zhang Dabin about this in advance, and Zhang Dabin asked in surprise when he heard this: "The county magistrate was killed and thrown into the fish pond?" It can't be, right? ”

"How could it not be? This fish pond was contracted by Qi Huogen in our back village, it was he who found the body, he was beaten badly, I heard that the eyeballs were gouged out, and the wife of the county magistrate Gu fainted on the spot when she arrived at the scene. ”

Zhang Dabin asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say that the family didn't notify you?" ”

"That's right, his wife fainted and was sent to the hospital, and the gang took the opportunity to cremate the body."

Zhang Dabin hadn't recovered from his surprise and asked, "Is this really the case?" It's not very credible. ”

Several women saw Zhang Dabin's stunned expression of disbelief, and they all didn't follow, and said, "How is it impossible? Qi Huogen saw it with his own eyes. However, he seems to have moved, and he doesn't know where he has moved. Otherwise, you will definitely be able to testify to us. ”

"Why did he move away?"

"I heard that he had drowned in his fish pond and that the county had paid him a lot of money, so he moved to another place."

Zhang Dabin nodded and said, "That's really unclear." ”

"Actually, there is a ghost in this matter! Otherwise, why the rush to cremate the body? Think about it, County Magistrate Gu is not an ordinary person, he ranks first among the deputy county magistrates. ”

Zhang Dabin said: "In this case, as soon as his wife sues him, the people above will investigate, don't they all understand?" ”

The three or four women laughed together, realizing that their IQ was higher than Zhang Dabin's, and said with a smile: "Guest, how can this be investigated?" Isn't it written according to the autopsy report of the county public security bureau? The people were burned, and they didn't arrive. ”

Zhang Dabin quickly reasoned in his heart and asked, "The county magistrate you said was because he offended the county leaders?" But he's also a county official? ”

"County Magistrate Gu was transferred from outside, and he has no power. If you are serious about doing things, how can you not offend people? I heard that there was a contradiction in the original, and later there was a big contradiction in order to repair the Shaozhu Highway, and some people said that it was the county magistrate Gu who caught the evidence that they were making money, so he was killed. ”

Zhang Dabin was very surprised in his heart, before he came, Ye Zhiran only asked him to inquire if there was any special incident, and at this time, he thought that Director Ye had gotten some news, so he sent him to inquire quietly. He thought about it for a while, and asked again: "Is it that the boss who built the road has something to do with the county officials?" ”

The woman looked stupid and said, "Definitely! Some people say that the boss is a relative of the secretary, and some people say that it is a relative of the county magistrate, and there must be a relationship anyway. ”

"If that's the case, County Magistrate Gu's wife will also be in danger of suing everywhere, right?"

"Yes, so she moved to the provincial capital with her children, and the house in Zhuzhou was empty."

Zhang Dabin asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Where is his house?" If I pass by, I go to take a look, and it's pitiful to think about it, I became a big official, and I was killed. ”
