Because the car along the mountain road in Niubei Village can not enter, and there are no mineral resources in the mountain, no developer is willing to enter the mountain to develop, therefore, the environment has not been damaged, but the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the air is fresh, the scenery is charming, but the life of the common people is sparse, most of them live in bungalows, three or two families at the foot of this mountain, one or two households in the middle of the mountain, some red brick houses are not even painted on the outer wall, it looks like a rough house, quite simple and rough, some live in the seventies and eighties of the earthen house, the wall is cracked, From time to time, wind leaks in.

The villagers don't have any decent furniture at home, it's very good to have a color TV, there is a color TV at home, you can watch more than ten or twenty stations for spending dozens of dollars to buy a satellite pot, whenever the night comes, the mountains are silent, except for a few dog barks and the howl of wild beasts, you can only pass the lonely and boring time in the mountains and fields with the sound of TV.

However, there are benefits in the mountains, there are a lot of wild delicacies in the mountains, what pheasants, wild boars, hares, etc., Orion Gate can always hit a few every day, and send them to the restaurants in the town for a few dollars to subsidize the family.

Secretary Zhang Maosong entertained the leaders of the superiors to inspect in the town government hotel, and often asked the branch secretary Lai Baolin to send people to ride a motorcycle, get a few wild goods and send them to the town government to entertain the leaders, sometimes the leaders who came to inspect and investigate ate happily, and did not forget to ask Zhang Maosong to prepare a few for them and take them back to enjoy.

The wild goods in the mountains are also counted in Niubei Village, and the taste is good, therefore, most of the wild meat that Zhang Maosong gives to the county leaders during the New Year's Festival is provided by Lai Baolin, the party secretary of Niubei Village.

Not only did he not criticize, but at various large-scale meetings in the town, Zhang Maosong often praised Lai Baolin, sometimes considering that Niubei Village was poor, Zhang Maosong naturally took care of it, and asked Lai Baolin to falsely report a few small projects to the town every year, Zhang Maosong took the opportunity to allocate tens of thousands of yuan to Niubei Village, of course, there are conditions in this, and the village must return half of the money to his private account.

So in addition to flattening the accounts, the money was basically divided privately by Zhang Maosong and Lai Baolin, except for the village director Li Ergou who could drink some soup, and the accountant Ma Jinshui, a fifty-year-old honest man, couldn't even drink a mouthful of soup, and had to think of a way to get an invoice to flatten the accounts.

Accountant Ma Jinshui can't say what is suffering, he can only hold it in his heart, although he can't get used to seeing the branch secretary Lai Baolin and the village director Li Ergou embezzling public funds, dominating the village, and doing nothing, how can he be a scholar himself, he can't grow crops, and he has a salary of several hundred yuan a month as an accountant in the village, but he can only turn a blind eye, so he is spent in the village, he doesn't know when the hard life of the people of Niubei Village is a head.

Just when the accountant Ma Jinshui was struggling in this pain, Zheng Weimin came, and Ma Jinshui would never have thought that it was precisely because of this demobilized cadre who heard that he was demoted to Niubei Village that he would give Niubei Village a chance to change the day.

When Wang Hu drove the car to the entrance of Niubei Village along the Bishan Road, because the mountain road was too narrow and too dangerous, he had to stop under the cautious greeting of the town mayor Cao Penghai.

After the town mayor Cao Penghai came out of the courtyard of the Yuling Town Government, he called the branch secretary Lai Baolin and the village director Li Ergou, and the two agreed to answer the phone well, saying that they must come to pick up themselves and Zheng Weimin at the entrance of the village, but they did not expect that now he and Zheng Weimin have arrived at the entrance of the village along Bishan Road, but they did not see the shadow of Lai Baolin and Li Ergou.

was so angry that he scolded Peng Hai: "Raised by a son of a bitch, Lai Baolin, Li Ergou two bastards, if Zhang Maosong came over, he would have been unable to dig out the soil with his feet long ago, and he could not take it seriously like this, I was really angry." ”

Zheng Weimin had just heard Cao Penghai say on the road that the party secretary Lai Baolin only listened to Zhang Maosong in the town, and no one else was birdish, and knew that it was likely that Zhang Maosong had already called the two village cadres before they came.

Smiled: "the mayor, forget it, they are coming a long time ago, it's useless to scold, it is estimated that the two village cadres are not welcome to come to their village to squat, the town, you go back first, there is a notice from the town in my hand, I just take the salute and go to the village to report." ”

"Alas, how can it be done, you haven't been to the village again, I'm more familiar with you here, I'll call Lai Baolin, no, let him do a review, it's too unusual, I came over in person as a town mayor, he didn't come to pick it up, I think he really didn't have a number in his heart." Cao Penghai took out his mobile phone and scolded angrily while pressing the buttons.

But the mayor Cao Penghai dialed a few times, and the phone came: I'm sorry, the mobile phone you dialed is not in the service area, and the same is true for calling the mobile phone of the village director Li Ergou.

Cao Penghai was so angry that he almost smashed his mobile phone, kicked it with a leather shoe according to a small pebble under his feet, turned his head and said to Zheng Weimin: "For the people, let's go, let's go directly to the village, damn, I know that we are coming, the phone is turned off for Lao Tzu, and I will scold them when I see them." ”

Zheng Weimin smiled, he knew that Lai Baolin and Li Ergou would not have the courage at all if they didn't have Zhang Maosong's instructions, and they dared to blatantly go against the mayor.

At this time, Zheng Weimin felt a little unhappy in his heart, the two village leaders were just afraid that the people in the village would have a hard time, and they hated this kind of cadres who used the power in their hands and made a fortune to the people, and if they found that this was the case after arriving in the village, they would never stand idly by.

Zheng Weimin and Wang Hu carried a gift box on one hand, a futon on the other, and Cao Penghai on the other, lined up in a queue and walked towards the village department of Niubei Village.

The village is at the foot of the two mountains, walk through a thousand meters along the mountain road, then go up a small hill, cross a stone bridge over a stream, go forward 800 meters, walk for about half an hour, and arrive at the village, the village is a courtyard bungalow, the house is gray and very old, it is estimated that it was built in the eighties of the last century.

In the middle of the courtyard of the village is a huge camphor tree, the sun shines, a large shade, if it is definitely cool in summer, just twelve minutes of weather, the cold wind blows a little cold.

Wang Hu was carrying the futon on his shoulder, seeing the branch secretary Lai Baolin, the village director Li Ergou did not come out to greet him, he was already out of breath, he walked to the iron gate of the village fence, kicked it up, only to hear a loud bang of the iron gate, Wang Hu saw that no one came out, and shouted: "the mayor is here, what are the people doing inside?" ”

At this moment, a wolfdog suddenly burst out of a corner of the yard, ran to the fence gate, and squeaked and pounced through the iron fence, with a fierce look that wanted to tear the three strangers outside the iron fence to pieces.
