It's already the fifth day.

From the next day, they slowly searched for the lost herds.

Horses were found, sheep gathered, and cattle returned to their new settlements.

It's a leeward nest, at least the blizzards haven't ravaged here for the past few days.

When I saw those animals, they were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs.

The sheep bleated all the time, and the cows mooed with hunger, except for the docile sycophants, who snorted from time to time.

The blizzard seemed to be gone, and the sky was gray all the time.

Even Tuyebai, a strong man, couldn't help but cry loudly while hugging the bull's head.

In the past few days, I can't even find anything to burn, so I have to kill a sheep every time I eat, and I have to eat raw meat quickly, otherwise after a while, the mutton will be frozen, cold and hard.

The sheep that were killed were piled up with sheepskins and wool, so that they could no longer sleep with the sheep in their arms at night.

When I sleep, I can only take turns in shifts. Now that there is no outside fence, the herd is not easy to manage.

Seeing Tuyebai crying, the other herdsmen couldn't stop wiping their tears.

"Captain, listen, it looks like someone is calling our names!" Torgen has the best ear and tilts his head to listen.

At this time, not only the people held their breath, but even the livestock stopped crying.

The sound is loud and small.

"Tuyebai!"

"Tolgen!"

The sound followed the valley and echoed one after another. At first, it was one person shouting, and then many people made a voice together.

Fortunately, every time they shouted, there was always a gap. I guess the people over there are also listening.

"I'm here!"

At the end, the twelve people gathered together and spread their hands around their mouths.

"We're here!"

"We're here!"

Following the sound, the rescuers finally found the herdsmen.

"Captain! Clerk! ”

The herdsmen wept with joy and finally waited for rescue from the brigade and the commune.

"Comrades, you have been rescued!" The captain's voice was very heavy: "Comrade Shanbayi, but he is missing, and he can no longer be found." ”

In the past two days, the blizzard has been much lighter.

Bigger blizzards are already on the way, and these smaller ones don't pose much of a threat.

Wushan is also rarely idle. Prepare to drive a car to visit county by county.

Such a big thing happened, and the standing committee members of the prefectural committee in Victoria Province came back one after another.

With the return of Cui Daxiang, Deputy Commissioner Wu can finally stop squatting in the office.

He was anxious to find out what was going on in every place.

Cui Daxiang felt guilty. When he saw Wushan entering, he immediately greeted him: "Xiaoshan." You're tired. ”

"Alas. Uncle Cui, I'm nothing compared to the people who were affected by the disaster. Wu Shan looked ashamed: "At least I have a place to work and eat, and they can't even guarantee a place to rest." ”

"Or I'm too selfish," Cui Daxiang shook his head embarrassedly: "I always want to go further when the change of office is over, and I am ready to operate in advance." ”

Wushan doesn't know about this yet. Hearing this, he smiled bitterly: "Uncle Cui, it's counterproductive for you to go." When the region suffers from a blizzard, it instead runs to ask for officials, even if they want you to go further. It is estimated that there is a bad impression in my heart. ”

"You're right!" Cui Daxiang was a little distressed: "I was driven back from the capital by the old leader. Originally, I was going to visit Vice Premier Wu, but I made an appointment. I heard that the snowstorm here was so bad, I had to come back early. ”

"Then when you left, did you say hello to the Wu family?" Wu Shan's eyes lit up: "My godfather is not old in that group of people, and it is estimated that he will not come down, so you can rest assured." I told you last year that as long as you have something to do here, I will help you find a way. ”

"No" Cui Daxiang himself was about to say that there was an estrangement with Wushan, so he hurriedly changed his words: "I asked the old leader and Wu Lao to apologize." Even if Vice Premier Wu has an opinion about me, he can't care so much. ”

"Quite the opposite!" Wu Shan said with a smile: "Wu Lao likes people who do things in a down-to-earth manner, and his opinion of you will not only not be lowered, but will be more appreciated." Uncle Cui, I'm going to go down and take a look, I answer the phone every day, I'm so uncomfortable. ”

"Good!" As soon as Cui Daxiang came back, he heard about the matter handled by thunderous means here, and waved his hand proudly: "No matter what cadre, dare to neglect their duties and embezzle materials on the issue of disaster relief, and take it without hesitation." No matter how hard their background is, it's a big deal that I, the secretary of the local party committee, are inappropriate, and I must also rectify the officialdom of our Ouluotai. ”

"Don't worry!" Wu Shan waved his hand: "In this matter, the two of us are the same." Otherwise, the lawsuit will go to the capital, and we will also deal with it. Okay, see you again, Uncle Cui! ”

"Okay, take care! You go to the west, the east has already passed. Cui Daxiang stretched out his hands and asked with some hesitation: "Has Shanshan contacted you?" ”

Wu Shan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Is she okay now?" ”

Cui Daxiang's eyes darkened: "I don't know yet, but after I arrived, I sent a telegram to keep me safe." ”

In the canteen of Alda commune, a group of victims lined up to receive food.

In the dining room, a few chef-like people were playing poker there, and the bucket next to it was full of steamed buns. In the other bucket, there is vegetable soup.

In front of everyone, there are banknotes of different denominations and sizes.

"A 2," a little fat man threw out a card: "It seems that you can't afford the cards below." I'm a pair of 4s, a pair of 7s, a pair of nines, a 5, an 8, a Q, three 10s. Okay, I'm done with this hand again, give money, and the luck is good. ”

The other three people muttered in their hearts, if you didn't have a father who was the deputy county magistrate in the county, who would dump you. Still winning? Lost so much that you didn't even have your pants.

They had a smile on their faces: "Xiao Zhang, your luck is so good, this one is one dollar per person, right?" ”

"How is that possible?" The little fat man pointed to the first one who played a card: "He's not bald, you're all bald." He loses one dollar, and each of you is three dollars. Didn't you say it was good at first? Three bald heads. ”

A woman with a child in her arms boldly asked, "Comrade Zhang, can you serve us food now?" It was cold, and for a while these meals were cold. You see. The boy was hungry. ”

As if to verify her words, the child in her hand cried out with a "wow".

"What howl?" The little fat man was not happy: "Howling? Don't you see we're busy? ”

"Well, you're busy!" A tall figure walked in: "Don't you see that some fellow villagers are already outside the door?" For fear of the cold in the house, they didn't even dare to open the door, and stood in the ice and snow, can you bear it? ”

When the other three people heard this, they quickly dropped the poker in their hands and prepared to work.

Xiao Zhang's eyes glared: "Whose crotch didn't close out of you like this?" Why are you blocking my way to make money? Come back, play a few more, and wait until I win enough hundred dollars. ”

"Which unit are you from?" This young man, of course, is Wushan. His eyes were cold: "Is this how you rescued the disaster?" ”

was supposed to scold himself at him, so he was ready to do it. After thinking about it, in front of the public, I still held back.

"Can you handle it?" The little fat man stiffened his neck and stood up. Rushed to the deputy commissioner of the area and prepared to do it.

He looked up with some fear, and shouted, "Boy." You hear me clearly. I am the head of the Materials Bureau, and my father is the deputy head of Fuhai County. Don't be looking for trouble here. ”

"Are you Zhang Biyou's son?" Wu Shan glanced at him: "From now on, you are suspended." ”

"You dare to suspend me?" The little fat man took two steps back quietly, and Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled: "Knowing that my father is Zhang Biyou, you dare to be so arrogant?" Boy, why are you? ”

The three cooks next to him had already washed their hands and started distributing the food.

One of them kindly advised: "Comrade. You'd better go. Chief Zhang, his brother is from the Public Security Bureau, so he arrested you carefully. ”

Wu Shan didn't speak, but walked to the bucket of soup and took a look.

There was not even an oil star in this soup, and a few dried vegetable leaves were rippling in the bucket.

He couldn't hold back any longer. shouted: "Let your commune secretary come over, let Zhang Biyou come over, and Zhao Desheng come to see me!" ”

Wushan bowed to the people: "Comrades of the society, I am Wushan, the deputy commissioner of the region. I'm sorry I'm late and I've made everyone suffer. Today's meal, please eat it. Rest assured, we will definitely improve our food tomorrow. Folks queuing outside, let's all come in. It's cold, it's cold. ”

The common people are kind, and everyone has tears in their eyes and cheers: "Deputy Commissioner Xie Lu Xie Wu!" ”

What the? The little fat man was putting the money in his pocket, looking at the tall figure in front of him stupidly. He's the Witch King?

He didn't care about collecting the money anymore, and was ready to sneak out.

"You'd better sit here!" Wu Shan walked over vigorously and slammed it on the ground, and the little fat man bared his teeth in pain.

When the secretary of the commune came, he called out "Deputy Commissioner Wu" and stood aside obediently.

This itself is next to the county seat, and Zhang Biyou and Zhao Desheng came one after another.

Zhang Biyi saw his son, and when he went up, he had a big mouth: "Beast, it's turned upside down, don't you even know Deputy Commissioner Wu?" ”

"Don't be pretty." Wu Shan waved his hand: "His job will definitely not be saved, these are all things that your county should deal with." Now you just stand there and reflect. ”

As soon as Zhao Desheng entered the room, he was busy apologizing: "Deputy Commissioner Wu, we didn't do a good job in Fuhai, you criticize me." ”

"Comrade Desheng," Wu Shan saw that there were a few white hairs on his head: "We must pay attention to the appointment of cadres." Ordinary people, they are now unable to sustain three meals a day. As officials, we must solve these problems well. ”

The secretary of the Fuhai County Party Committee didn't look at Zhang Biyou: "We will definitely follow Deputy Commissioner Wu's instructions." However, Deputy County Magistrate Zhang is "

"It's useless if he's my relative!" Wu Shan waved his hand: "Before I came, I had communicated with Secretary Cui about my opinions, and no one who dared to start in the disaster relief work could be let go." Deputy County Magistrate Zhang is very capable, one son is in the Public Security Bureau, and the other is in the Material Bureau, let's rest first. ”

This person is also a cadre who rose up in the ten years of catastrophe, and no one cares about him when he is usually inconspicuous.

But at this juncture, I took the opportunity to take it.

Zhao Desheng has always been tied in Fuhai, just because this is the richest county in Oulothai, and the composition of the members is very complicated. It is impossible to do everything according to his wishes, and taking down a deputy county magistrate can also let everyone know that Deputy Commissioner Wu is supporting him.

Seeing Deputy Commissioner Wu's posture and preparing to return to the wind, Zhao Desheng wanted to speak and stopped.

"If there's anything you say, tell the truth!" Wu Shan glanced at him: "Why are you hiding in front of me?" Comrade Li Qiusheng may not be able to come back, but he did a good job there. ”

Zhao Desheng was shocked when he heard this, and only then did he realize that the person in front of him was the only one to rely on in the region in the future.

He is also not hypocritical: "Comrade Shanbayi is missing!" ”

Five days later, Sambayi's body was found. He fell into the snow and didn't even have time to call for help.

His funeral was held in the commune of Chet Ajele, where he was born.

Shan Bayi's face still had a wry smile.

Wu Shan couldn't help but blame himself deeply, if this person was still in the position of the director of the transportation bureau, he would not have run to find the missing herdsman, and he would not have sacrificed.

For the appointment of cadres, I still have some feelings.

Wushan can only silently bless in his heart: Shanbayi goes all the way! (To be continued......)
