Immediately after, the sound of footsteps sounded, and a person rushed into the yard.

Seeing the comer, Li Xiaohe's eyes lit up, and then his heart tightened.

The person who came was Zhao Yinhe, director of the township police station. Zhao Yinhe's face was solemn, he strode to the door of the house, and said in a hurried low voice: "Township Chief, enter the house." ”

The bad premonition in his heart was even worse, Li Xiaohe didn't bother, but walked into the village committee with the other party and went to the east house.

Seeing that Zhao Yinhe's expression was wrong, Qiao Manchu pulled his wife Zhu Xiaohua and went to the courtyard with interest.

Zhao Yinhe closed the door directly, and only him and Li Xiaohe were left in the room. Subconsciously glanced at the door, Zhao Yinhe approached and lowered his voice: "Tomorrow morning, the provincial leaders will inspect the county, and the county bureau has just held a meeting to ask all departments to do a good job in maintaining stability. When you called me, I had just arrived at the county bureau for a meeting, and it was a short notice. The leader of the bureau said that it was originally set for the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, but it was changed to tomorrow just now. ”

"Then ......" Halfway through the words, Li Xiaohe turned around and left.

"Township Chief, where are you going?" Zhao Yinhe grabbed the other party.

Li Xiaohe turned his head: "Go and stop those people just now, they are going to the county to petition, this is not ......"

Zhao Yinhe interrupted: "He Chunsheng has already brought someone to stop him, I met him and two villagers halfway, so I pulled them up, I didn't tell them about the provincial leader coming." ”

"Ding Bang Bang", the mobile phone rang.

Zhao Yinhe took out his mobile phone, scanned it to the caller ID, said "Secretary Zhao's phone" suspiciously, and pressed the answer button.

"Director Zhao, are you in Xiangyang Village? Is Township Chief Li next to him? "It was Zhao Qiang's voice on the phone.

"In, in." After answering twice, Zhao Yinhe handed over the phone.

With the pick-up in hand, Li Xiaohe said: "Secretary." ”

"No matter what method you think, you must not let the villagers go to the county to petition, otherwise we will both be finished." Zhao Qiang's voice was very urgent, "What's the situation now?" ”

"Now ......" After a pause, Li Xiaohe lied, "I am persuading, they are in the courtyard, and Director Zhao and I have just entered the house." ”

There was a complaint on the mobile phone, "The more anxious you are, the more you can't find anyone, why can't your mobile phone work, why doesn't anyone answer Qiao Man's house?" Tomorrow the provincial leaders will be in the county. ”

"The signal in the village is not good, and Qiao Manchu and his family are helping to do work in the village committee." While speaking, Li Xiaohe took out his mobile phone. Only then did he realize that his phone was turned off.

"Don't let them go. Our lives are in your hands. Zhao Qiang's tone was a little heavy.

"Secretary Zhao, then let's do this first, I have to take a look at the hospital." After speaking, Li Xiaohe hung up the phone.

With a "squeak", the door of the house was pushed open, and a group of people appeared at the door, with He Chunsheng and He Hai at the front.

In fact, when he hung up the phone just now, Li Xiaohe had already seen someone enter the house through the glass, and also saw many villagers pouring into the yard.

"Uncle Chunsheng, if Township Chief Li can't do anything, don't blame me for not giving face, I mean just leave." He Hai's words seemed to be for He Chunsheng, but they were for Li Xiaohe.

When he heard the news of the inspection by the provincial leaders just now, it happened that the villagers had just left the courtyard, and Li Xiaohe couldn't help but feel anxious, and even a little flustered. Now that they have returned, and that they have come to this point, they have calmed down a lot. He smiled slightly: "He Hai, they are all from the villagers, don't use this threatening tone, okay?" ”

"Township Chief, I don't dare to threaten you, I'm in a hurry. So much money has been cheated, and there is no place until now, who can not be in a hurry? Ordinary people are different from officials, and it is not easy to make money. He Hai snorted, "If I can get the money now, I don't need to be in a hurry, and I can speak calmly, even if I lie down and kowtow to the township chief." ”

Li Xiaohe diverted the topic: "Don't say it's useless, let's talk about it." ”

"Talk? Or are those tirades, and it's interesting to turn them over and over again? We're dealing with things, not debating, and I'm not that idle. He Hai said and was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait," Li Xiaohe stopped the other party, "I said that there is a need to talk." I was going to talk about it in a small area just now, but you are so arrogant that you have to teach me in front of so many people, how can I talk to you in detail? ”

He Hai stopped his steps and said "oh": "So, there are dry goods?" Must be talked about on a small scale? ”

"You elect five deputies, including two village chiefs, and let's talk together." Li Xiaohe said and sat directly on the chair.

"Okay, just choose, I hope you don't fool us." After speaking, He Hai turned around and pointed with his finger, "You, you, okay?" ”

"Okay."

"Okay, let's go to the courtyard and wait."

The elected delegates and the rest of the people replied, and the non-delegates quickly exited the room.

"Director Zhao, please go to the door and keep guard, don't let anyone else come in again." Li Xiaohe gestured to Zhao Yinhe.

"Wait." He Hai stretched out his arm and blocked Zhao Yinhe, who was about to step out of the East House, "Township Chief, you won't come to Qiao Manho again, right?" ”

Li Xiaohe said to Qiao Manchu: "Director Qiao, give that lock to He Hai, he is suspicious." ”

Qiao Manchu answered, took the lock, and handed it to He Hai.

"Township Chief, if you have to let Director Zhao stop us for a while and don't let us get out of the house, don't blame us for making a fuss, we are all forced, and it is legitimate defense." He Hai's voice was very high.

Sure enough, there was a response in the courtyard: "He Hai, if you don't let you out, we will smash the glass and bang on the door." ”

He Hai roared: "A bunch of stupid*, what do you care about us?" Isn't that looking for a tidying up? You go directly to the county seat, and we will resist on our own. ”

"Got it, let's go to the county seat to petition." The voice of the courtyard was heard in the house.

Feeling the scene just now, Li Xiaohe said in his heart: He Hai, this kid is really a talent, looking at the five big and three thick, this brain is quite a thief.

Zhao Yinhe moved a chair and sat behind the door of the outhouse where the door bolt had been inserted.

The talkers closed the door of the East Room and sat down.

The participants in the talks are all old acquaintances, namely Li Xiaohe, Qiao Manchu, He Chunsheng, He Hai, Wang Gui'e, and Yang Dashan.

After waiting for a while, there was no movement, and He Hai opened his mouth: "Township Chief, let's start." ”

Li Xiaohe cleared his throat and said: "In August of the previous year, Ma Yishan rented an old courtyard in the township and established Yishan Potato Deep Processing Co., Ltd. Then, in the name of the company, a total of 1,000 acres of land were leased from Xiangyang and Hejiaying villages, and the lease period was ......"

"Township Chief, there's no need to say this, it's been said eighty-two times." He Hai interrupted directly.

"I'll have to keep it simple." Li Xiaohe said in a deep voice, "Why don't you talk about the back." ”

"You just listen, why are there so many things?" He Chunsheng reprimanded He Hai.

He Hai sighed and sulked, his cheeks bulged, and he stopped talking.

"The lease period is five years in total, and it is ...... every year," Li Xiaohe continued, talking about the ins and outs of the whole thing.

Listening to the township chief's chatter, everyone was very impatient, but they also persisted.

In fact, how can Li Xiaohe be willing to dislike people? It's just that he needs time to think of countermeasures, and come up with enough countermeasures to convince everyone, but until he gets tired of talking about it, he still hasn't reached a conclusion. This is not to say that he can't think of a countermeasure, but it must be able to convince the villagers not to petition, and it must be a countermeasure that will not be immediately ganged up.

Probably realizing that Li Xiaohe was procrastinating, He Hai interjected again: "Township Chief, we know the whole process, you better say the specific plan." Will you be able to give the money right away, or will you be able to come back tomorrow? Even if you catch Ma Yishan, you can be regarded as having a hope. ”

"It's not difficult to catch Ma Yishan." Li Xiaohe immediately grasped this topic that could be exploited.

"Then there has to be a time, two, three, or five?" Wang Gui'e followed and asked, "You can't push it without a shadow." ”

"It can only be three days at most, and if you haven't caught it in three days, what do you say? You can't just forget it. He Hai stared and asked, "There is no evidence, this time it must be written on paper." When we petition or do something else, we can have a place to rely on. ”

"Three days?" Li Xiaohe questioned.

"It can't be any longer, it's not negotiable." He Hai said very resolutely, "No one can say it." ”

Li Xiaohe said: "I didn't mean that, I mean ......"

"Tuk Tuk", "Captain Xu", knocking on the door and talking sounded one after another.

Hearing the sound, Li Xiaohe immediately got up and went out.

"Squeak", "Bang", the door opened, and Xu Jianjun walked into the outhouse. He was not the only one who came in, but there were three people behind him, two policemen carrying a person, and the person who was being framed was wearing a black hood.

Seeing Xu Jianjun and seeing this posture, Li Xiaohe was immediately overjoyed, but he didn't dare to be sure, so he just said: "Old Xu, are you here?" ”

Noticing that the door of the house had been closed, Xu Jianjun smiled slightly: "Who do you think he is?" As he spoke, he removed the black hood.

"Ma Yishan." All made the same sound.

Li Xiaohe also saw that person clearly, that is, the appearance on the relevant documents and videos, and the certificates corresponded to a name: Ge Erhai and Ma Yishan.

"Ma Yishan, is it really Ma Yishan? Bastard. He Hai roared and rushed forward.

Xu Jianjun blocked his arm: "Go aside." ”

He Hai was blocked and retreated to the base of the wall, but he still shouted: "Horse liar, pay back Lao Tzu's money." ”

"Pay it back."

"Kill him."

"A horse liar must not die well."

The crowd in the courtyard was suddenly indignant, shouting incessantly, and even the door of the house was slammed.

Xu Jianjun shouted: "What is the noise? What's the use of killing him? Can you get the money? It's just a few more pads. ”

This sound really worked, and the insult gradually became quieter, turning into many sobs.

"He Hai, will it take three more days?" Li Xiaohe suddenly spoke.

"Township Chief, do you mean to catch it immediately?" He Hai bared his teeth, "I thought you were going to push it again." It turns out that you have already arranged it. ”

Li Xiaohe said in a deep voice: "He Hai, use your brains in the future, don't just light a fire." Things are going according to plan, Ma Yishan's arrest is only part of the plan, don't spoil it for me. ”

He Hai said "yes" again and again: "Yes, yes, I have served the township chief." ”

Xu Jianjun smiled slightly: "Lao Li, let's go first, go back and hurry up the training." You get people out of the way just in case something happens. ”

"Okay." After answering, Li Xiaohe walked towards the door.
