Chapter 13: New Officials Take Office (5)
Liu Yi's rude behavior was directly ignored by the committee members, and when he was bullied outside, he went to cry to his backer, which was a child's behavior, not the performance of a mature politician, in a sense, Liu Yi was finished in Shanglin Township, his prestige was discredited, and he was slapped in the face by his subordinates in the party committee, who will listen to him in the future.
After Zhong Hanliang announced the adjournment of the meeting, he stood up and patted Duan Zetao's shoulder with a smile and said, "Zetao, it's good!" Other committee members also came over to show their goodwill to Duan Zetao.
Liu Yi went to the county that afternoon, but he failed to please Liu Mingzheng, the county magistrate, but was scolded by Liu Mingzheng, even a college student who had just worked couldn't fight, and he was embarrassed to complain, Liu Mingzheng was disappointed in Liu Yi, and he was still counting on him to press Duan Zetao to add some blockage to Ma Fugui, and he didn't want to be blocked back, and Ma Fugui heard everything that happened in the Shanglin Township Party Committee from Xiaolin, and his face bloomed with a smile, and he said meaningfully: "This small paragraph, it's really not simple...... Xiao Lin saw that the boss attached so much importance to Duan Zetao, and his heart for Duan Zetao's friendship became even firmer.
Liu Yi was scolded by Liu Mingzheng, and the more he thought about it, the more he swoon, so he simply left his stall and took three months of sick leave to go to the provincial capital to see a doctor, can't you Duan Zetao? I'm gone, let's see what kind of fame you can toss!
Liu Yi put a stall, but he asked for sick leave, and it was impossible to send another township chief down, but it was impossible for a big mess of the township government to stop there and no one would take care of it, so Zhong Hanliang proposed at the party committee that Duan Zetao would temporarily take care of the government's big mess, originally Duan Zetao's deputy township head probationary period had not yet expired, and he was not qualified to work as the acting township head, but he was now in the limelight, and no one wanted to compete with him, Liu Yi had the backing of the county magistrate and did not win Duan Zetao, at this time, it was not interesting to go against Duan Zetao?
Besides, the acting township chief is not so easy to be, with credit, it is a good foundation laid by the former township chief, but if something goes wrong, it is necessary to carry the black pot, especially in Shanglin Township, the economy is backward, the foundation is thin, and money is required everywhere, and there are cadres below blocking the door to complain all day long.
Before Duan Zetao's ass was firmly seated, Li Dafu, the village party secretary of Shanghe Village, Li Ergou, the village party secretary of Xiahe Village, and Qian Jiashan, the village party secretary of Shanlin Village, came to the door to complain together.
It turned out that when the previous township mayor was in office, in order to let the people get rid of poverty and become rich, he called on everyone to plant citrus together, and each village pressed the task indicators, so each village planted citrus all over the mountains, this year's citrus harvest was a bumper harvest, which was a good thing, but because the citrus sales market was not good this year, and the traffic conditions in Shanglin Township were poor, the buyers who came to buy citrus pressed the price very low, and even the labor money for picking citrus was not enough.
In fact, at this time in the grassroots rural areas, such a situation where government leaders pat their heads and decide to plant a certain kind of cash crops or fruit trees is widespread, due to the lack of market research and sales channels, technical support can not keep up, and the result is that things cannot be planted at all, or they cannot be sold after they are planted, and the result is that the ordinary people are still the victims, which has also led to a sharp decline in the prestige of the grassroots government in the hearts of the people.
There was such a thing before, there was a leather bag company to find the township government, to the township government to call on farmers to plant tomatoes, by them to underwrite, but tomato seeds must be bought from them, the cadres of the township government ate the company's meal, and took a small red envelope, naturally called on farmers to plant tomatoes, each village sent a task, the farmers are simple, thinking that anyway, the company underwrites, so they squeezed out the money from between their teeth to buy seeds, and the other crops in the field were cut and replanted tomatoes, and the seeds provided by that company were bad, I can't plant it at all, and then I go to the company, and the leather bag company has long since disappeared, and this matter is the most unresolved, but now whoever wants to mention to the people that they plant cash crops, the people will be anxious with him.
Duan Zetao couldn't think of any good way for a while, so he had to patiently persuade the three village party secretaries back first, saying that he would wait until he went down to investigate and then find a way. Sending away the three village party secretaries, Duan Zetao didn't feel good in his heart, he felt like something was blocked, he thought about it again, but he still had no idea, so he took Fang Dongmin to the countryside on a bicycle.
They first arrived at the nearest Shanghe Township, the mountains are full of citrus trees, the trees are full of golden citrus, the branches are bent, it looks very spectacular and pleasant, the breeze blows, full of citrus fragrance, people are refreshed and happy.
Duan Zetao was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of him, and saw an old farmer in front of him who was picking citrus with a girl, so he walked over quickly.
The old peasant's face was wrinkled, his face was full of sorrow, and his back was a little hunched, but the girl next to him was very beautiful, although she was wearing patched old clothes, she was very energetic, but she also had a special charm, and she should still be a student who was still studying.
"Fellow, the harvest is good!" The old farmer didn't know Duan Zetao, and thought it was a college student in the city who came to the countryside to play during the holidays, so he took the cigarette and sighed and said: "What's good, now citrus only sells for 5 cents a catty, which is not enough for me to buy seedlings and pesticides.......
The girl named Wenxiu tugged at her father's sleeve and said, "Dad, you're here again, didn't I say it?" I don't go to college, it's nothing, I go out to work and earn money to subsidize your family. Her eyes turned red as she spoke.
Duan Zetao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "Oh, what university were you admitted to?" Li Wenxiu's face flushed, and somehow, the calm and confident eyes of the handsome young man in front of her made her panic, and she replied in a low voice: "Jiangnan University!" ”。
"Then we are alumni, I graduated from Jiangnan University, it is a rare opportunity to go to college, don't give up easily, the government will not ignore a situation like yours!" , Duan Zetao said happily.
"Not to mention the government, when we were asked to grow citrus, they said a thousand good things, but now I don't know where to go......", the old farmer said angrily, "Dad! Li Wenxiu hurriedly tugged at her father's sleeve to prevent him from talking any more.
At this time, an exclamation came from afar: "Xiaoduan Township Chief, it's really you, why don't you come down and say hello!" It was Li Dafu, the village party secretary of Shanghe Village, who originally thought that Duan Zetao said that he was going to come down to investigate just to perfunctory him, but he didn't want to come down but really came down.
When the old farmer heard that the young man in front of him, who was not a few years older than his daughter, was actually the head of a township, he was so frightened that he immediately panicked and immediately knelt down for him, "You...... You're the mayor! It's all my fault, I just said all nonsense, don't blame ......."
Li Wenxiu was also taken aback, and hurriedly grabbed his father, looking at Duan Zetao's eyes full of begging, "Township Chief Duan, my father didn't have a heart just now, if you want to blame me, my father is so anxious about my affairs that he doesn't ......choose to speak."
Li Dafu didn't know what the old farmer said to Duan Zetao, so he panicked, glared at him, and said angrily: "Okay, you Li Laosan, are you running away with your mouth full ......of horses, why don't you apologize to the leader quickly."
Duan Zetao grabbed Li Dafu and said with a pleasant face: "Fellow, you are not wrong, it is our work that has not done a good job and made the villagers suffer, you can rest assured, the government will definitely not ignore you!" ”。
Li Laosan took his daughter and left anxiously, Li Dafu pulled Duan Zetao and said: "Township Chief Duan, it's better to come early than to come by coincidence, the village just caught a wild boar, I asked them to go to the river to net a few fish, let's have a good tooth sacrifice!" ”。
Duan Zetao couldn't help it, so he had to follow him to the village department, and the village cadres all stood up to greet him when they saw Duan Zetao coming.
It is a happy event for the whole village to hit the wild boar in the village, usually life is hard, it is rare to see meat dishes on the table, the people in the village have gathered together, some help to clean up the wild boar, some are setting the table and chopsticks, and the most excited is the children in the village, chasing around with joy.
Duan Zetao was very emotional when he saw this warm scene, while talking and laughing with Li Dafu, he looked around curiously, Li Laosan and Li Wenxiu also came, looking at Duan Zetao's eyes a little timid, Duan Zetao took the initiative to say hello to them.
Li Dafu thought that Duan Zetao had fallen in love with Li Wenxiu, who was a little beautiful, and called Li Laosan and Li Wenxiu to their table during the meal, the meal was quickly ready, the wine was a fruit wine made from wild fruits, the degree was not high, but the stamina was very strong, Li Dafu poured a bowl of wine for Duan Zetao, and he was full, and he toasted to Duan Zetao: "Township Chief Duan, you can come to our Shanghe Village, that is to look up to our Shanghe Village, there are no good things in the township, only this wild boar, wild fruit wine, I salute you a bowl, I will do it first!" ”。
Duan Zetao had no choice but to accompany him, he pointed to Li Wenxiu and asked: "There are not many cases like her in the village, how many households can't go to school because the citrus is not sold well?" ”。
Li Dafu saw that Duan Zetao was particularly interested in Li Wenxiu, and confirmed his conjecture more and more, and smiled mysteriously: "Wenxiu is the village flower of our village, and it is also the first one to study, but I was admitted to university this year but I can't go to it, to say that this year's citrus really hurts us, when I bought seedlings and pesticides, many people borrowed debts, and now the price is not good, not to mention that the children can't go to school, even eating is a problem!" But what can be done, it's all fate! We don't have any other ideas, we just hope that when the township allocates relief funds, we will give priority to our village, Wenxiu, don't hurry up and toast to Township Chief Duan, our village's relief funds will depend on whether you and Township Chief Duan can drink this wine well! ”。
Li Wenxiu gritted his teeth, picked up the wine and said: "Township Chief Duan, I respect you, my father said the wrong thing during the day today, you have a lot of adults, you don't hear this bowl of wine, okay?" ”。
Duan Zetao listened to Li Dafu's words, his heart was a little uncomfortable, his face sank, he put down the wine and said: "I can't drink this wine, Li Zhishu, I'm going to say something that I don't like, you can't wait for this kind of thinking, the relief money can be saved for a while, but it can't save a lifetime, the masses are in difficulty, what do you want us party members and cadres to do, we should stand up and lead the people to make a fortune is the last word!" ”。
Li Dafu didn't think so, thinking to himself what kind of big-tailed wolf you pretended, who wouldn't say a big truth, you drank the wine and wiped it away, what should we do, drink the northwest wind, it seems that the heat is still not enough, and you have to make some fierce ingredients at night, but he apologized again and again: "Yes, yes, Duan Township Chief is right in criticism, I have a low consciousness, I have no level, I will do it first!" ”。
Then several village cadres took turns to fight, these guys were all wine barrels, although Duan Zetao had a good amount of alcohol, but he was also drunk and unconscious, so he stayed in Shanghe Village that night.
In a daze, I only felt that my mouth was very dry, but my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn't open them as if I had added iron, and I felt a figure touch in the haze, and after standing at the head of the bed for a while, I began to undress, revealing a white and bewitching carcass, and the person took off his clothes, lifted the quilt and got in naked!
