Chapter 169: Simple Man
At noon, actually starting at 2 p.m., the village project officer saw the project secretary coming over and asked her, "How is it, is the meal ready?" The secretary nodded, looking not very satisfied, there was a hint of a strange look that was fleeting, Ji Conan saw this, deliberately ignored it, and didn't want to continue to think about it, where there are people, there are contradictions, this is nothing.
The village project officer said, "Please invite Mr. Ji and Mr. Li to dinner." In the small restaurant opposite. ”
Vice President Li said, "Okay. Mr. Ji, please! ”
It seems that it is indeed a little late for lunch at this time, but they have long been used to it, and Conan has been able to adapt to it all these years when he has been in Guizhou. Therefore, try to eat in the morning and don't get stuck with your stomach. Because, you don't know when you will be able to eat lunch. Even though lunch is rich, sometime before eating, your stomach is very upset. Conan felt this very deeply. If it's past the time to eat, you're not hungry. Everyone can endure it, but to varying degrees. The sun was not in the middle, it was shining brightly, and the grass was growing wildly, and it was silent. The car came from top to bottom, from bottom to top, whizzing by, like rushing to a market.
Conan suddenly thought that Togo's stomach had a problem, of course, it was not a malfunction after returning to the county seat. This small county town is like a township in his hometown, small in scale, like a pocket kingdom.
When he was in his hometown, he already had stomach problems. Stomach medicine has not been broken, but as long as it is medicine, it is toxic, perhaps, the toxicity is more violent than the medicine, therefore, Togo has announced the surrender of arms in dealing with stomach diseases, however, his temper is very strange, he has to get along with stomach diseases, and he must fight to the death, and he is now in a state of protracted war. His stomach disease is like his old friend, inseparable, compared to his wife, stomach disease is more intimate and intimate, which makes Togo think most of it is not his wife, but his stomach disease.
He pays attention to his health, and when it is time to eat at noon, he must eat something, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable and will lose his temper.
Conan was still young and his stomach was relatively normal, but seeing Togo's pain and suffering from chronic diseases, he couldn't help but raise his vigilance and strive to be better for his stomach. In such a situation, Conan needs to prepare some snacks on his body in case of emergency.
However, Conan always forgot to bring snacks because of his economic limitations, such as today. If it weren't for the farmer's house at the water source just now to eat some peanuts and sunflower seeds, I'm afraid it would have really become a briefcase written by Qian Zhongshu now, and the stomach would be like a briefcase without any document bags, with the front chest against the back, and it would be possible to be hungry into a piece of paper. This is like the life of a wanderer, hungry and full, eating one meal and worrying about the next. Speaking of which, you still have to be prepared, you can't wait for someone to eat stupidly, you have to prepare first, bring dry food, be ready anytime, anywhere, and be ready to starve. If it's not good for the stomach, the stomach is bad for the nerves, and the stomach is not good for the nerves, and the whole body is not much better.
Lunch was plentiful, and the main dish was hot pot. Although it is summer, I still have the habit of eating hot pot, and this habit is not easy to change.
Also, there are some side dishes. The local vegetables are much more delicious than those from the low-lying areas. I don't know why, but the taste is better. This may be related to the climate, soil and the lack of pesticides. Because it is a high mountain, there are few pests and diseases, unlike the low-level areas, there are quite a lot of pests, and it is not possible to use pesticides. The hillside has no stagnant water, no root rot, and the soil moisture is good, which is naturally good for the growth of vegetables.
After eating, it was almost three o'clock, looking at the sun, thinking about the journey, I really didn't dare to delay any longer.
Vice President Li said: "It's not early, I'm going to a meeting tomorrow." Mr. Ji is also rushing back, right? We will go back as we come. In this way, it is better that no one else will make irresponsible remarks. People are terrible and have to be guarded against. ”
The reporter said: "We have to rush the manuscript tonight and strive to broadcast it on TV two days after tomorrow." We're going back too. ”
When the village project director heard this, he was in the middle of it, and it seemed that he didn't want to keep the guests, but the guests were really sensible, naturally clear, and knew what to do next. There was no need to be verbose, his face was full of smiling folds, and he agreed that a stone had been thrown into the calm lake, causing ripples, and he said, "Well, you can go now, and if you are not in a hurry, you will be able to get home before dark." We will not delay you any longer. ”
The village project officer said to Conan: "Please Mr. Ji tell the leaders of your organization well, No, you see, there are twenty or thirty families here who have no water to eat, and people can't believe it, even in the center of the village, there is no water to eat, so what's the deal?" People don't believe it. ”
Conan said, "I'll try to fight for it." As long as the person in charge of the organization has no opinion, of course I am willing to come to your village again, no matter which village I do the project in, it will not affect us, the key is to see if the local people welcome it. If it is not welcomed, the project cannot be successful. We are only the facilitators, and the key is the owner. We can't always do projects in the village, and the villagers can't always need us, and we can do a lot if we remove this obstacle. You say, don't you? Besides, there are abundant resources now, and if we don't come, there will be other external resources. You can't hang yourself from a tree either, can you? The living don't suffocate to urine, do they? ”
The village project director said: "Yes, yes, yes, this state is good, we are relieved that we are on the ground, no matter what, we know that on this project, it is not you who have the final say?" Will you be outside, right? ”
Conan said, "Yes, yes, I'm just working. The decision is still made by the head of the institution. ”
The village project secretary said, "Okay, we are waiting for good news. ”
Conan said, "Okay, so be it." There is no hope, it will be notified, there is no need to worry. I'm just working part-time, so it's up to my boss to decide what to do. ”
Just as he was about to leave, the village secretary said, "Could you please leave a phone number for Mr. Ji?" ”
When Conan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, what does this mean? However, it's just to leave a contact number, but don't worry about it, just don't tell it, the secretary is not a vegetarian, she will find Conan's contact information, and this resource can still be put to good use. So he said, "That's fine." ”
So, Conan gave Clerical his phone number.
After getting this and leaving the number, Vice President Li asked Conan to get in the car, Conan refused, he had to ask Vice President Li to get on first, Secretary Li couldn't push it, so he had to get in the car first, and then Conan also got in the car.
After getting into the car, the village project director and secretary waved to Director Li and Conan, their eyes full of anticipation. Conan avoided the look. Secretary Li said: "Don't worry, try your best!" ”
Conan didn't know what the leaders of the organization were thinking. He can't express his stance too early, lest the leaders don't approve it when the time comes, and it's not easy for him to give an explanation.
It's so conservative, in fact, there is no harm, at least it gives a good impression, and when he says it, he is a true gentleman! In fact, Dezhi has been trying to create an impression of trustworthiness, but there are many failures. When inadvertently, it often makes people feel that he is lying.
Conan sat in the car, and Secretary Li said: "I hope that Mr. Ji will fight hard with Director Liu of the institution and implement the project." We're looking forward to it. ”
Conan said, "Don't worry. There is no need to guess what the leader thinks. Just do your part. ”
In fact, Conan didn't know why he said this. He couldn't just give a meal away. He hopes to make more villages, no matter what the background of this village is, as long as he has more knowledge, runs more, and changes the environment. Lest you look at the hateful face of the project director in Hupo Village.
Coupled with the selfishness, small group interests, and stubbornness of the county branch, it is really unbearable. If Kimura is the last stop, a prelude to a new project site, this overture should have begun, and the journey has already begun, as if getting into a car and starting the engine. As for when you will arrive at your destination, it's just a matter of time.
On the way, Conan fell asleep, a habit that has been around for a long time, and as the car shakes, the car is dull and the space is small, and people are easy to fall asleep. Motion sickness is not enough, which makes Conan more confident in pursuing a career in social work.
It was a long time and full of curiosity, but when I returned, it was short, as if it had arrived in an instant. When Dezhi opened his eyes, the car was six kilometers away, looking at the white houses in the valley and a Yangtze River meandering through Guizhou City, Dezhi asked: "Mr. Li, have you arrived so soon?" ”
Vice President Li said: "It's almost there, there are 10 minutes at most, and you can get home." ”
Then Vice President Li said to the driver, Xiao Wang, "Send Mr. Ji to his house." ”
Conan said, "Thank you! ”
Vice President Li asked, "I'm sorry, I haven't been there since you moved." ”
Conan said: "In Baipo, a little above the hospital. ”
Vice President Li asked, "Okay, let's go together." ”
As he was talking, the car began to climb, climbed to the end, and then turned around, it was a security company, and the security company of the green slope was a system, and they were all responsible for information work. Wake up trumpets could be heard every morning, and it seemed that they were there to get up or practice or turn off the lights to sleep.
Sending Conan home, Conan invited Vice President Li to sit down and drink some tea, Vice President Li thanked him and said, "You have to go back quickly." I have a meeting tomorrow, and I have to make final revisions to my materials, polish them, and try to pass them. Comrade reporter also has something to do, busy, I will come to visit you in the future! ”
Conan seemed to be fine, as open-minded as an old man who had experienced a lot of things, and he didn't want to be reluctant to see the long term, so he took his leave, and they were carried away by the car.
Conan entered the house and saw his wife breastfeeding the child, Conan washed his hands, touched his wife's face, and then massaged her back for a while, Conan's wife smiled and said, "Old rascal! ”
Conan said, "My wife, can't I touch it yet?" ”
She said: "Of course you can touch it, the child is breastfeeding, aren't you afraid that he will choke?" ”
Conan said: "If you are emotional, if you are moving, you must act." I'm measured. ”
"How?" she asked. How do you see it today? ”
Conan said, "The water source is fine. If you can do it, it depends on the person in charge of the institution. Their hearts are too deep to understand. ”
She said: "Then just report it truthfully." It doesn't matter what their hearts do, you just have to do your part. ”
Conan said, "That's right. I'm going to put together my work notes. Then report to Miss Liu. See how she decides. ”
After saying that, Conan went into the small room, which was a small study and put some miscellaneous items. was cleaned up by his wife and organized.
Conan reported today's visit to Miss Liu, and Miss Liu said, "It's hard work, I'll call you later." ”
Conan knew that she would definitely have to discuss with her eldest aunt Feng Feifei's fat girl, and that Teacher Feng would still have to come to the decision on this matter. In this regard, Miss Liu, as a person, is not good at dealing with mainlanders, and must rely on Teacher Feng, because of this, Miss Liu always relies on Teacher Feng, and Teacher Feng is always proud of this.
Conan thought to himself, this project will be approved nine times out of ten, and the counterpart villages of the provincial head office and the new rural demonstration sites will be included in the plan, and they will be accepted and evaluated for political performance.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, Miss Liu called and said, "It's okay, you can go to the village in two days, make a detailed budget, and then set a time to finish it in November as soon as possible." ”
Conan said, "Okay, try to finish it by that time." I'll go to Hupo Village first, finish the tail sweeping work, and then go to Longya Village. ”
For this matter, Miss Liu was not able to interfere too much, after all, "the monarch will not be subject to the order of the monarch outside", the specific situation is analyzed, the specific situation is treated and solved on a case-by-case basis, and it cannot be one-size-fits-all, and it is appropriate to give some free rights to front-line colleagues, and everyone will be very relaxed. As long as it does not violate the principles of the project and does not threaten the interests of the institution.
Conan finished this and was about to go to cook when the round face called and asked, "Is my sister-in-law here?" ”
Conan was taken aback, why did this little girl call at this time? Conan said, "Here, is there something wrong?" ”
Round Face said, "My sister wants to meet her and the little one." My sister is also at home with the children, and my brother-in-law is also at home today, and they want me to invite your family to their house to play. ”
Conan said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask." ”
Conan turned off the phone. He said to his wife, "My friend who returned to the state wants to invite us to her house." You see......? ”
She said, "What friend? ”
Conan said: "Woman, we often charter her car, it's okay, it's more righteous." ”
She said, "Then go ahead." When? ”
Conan said, "Okay, I'll ask her." ”
Conan called Roundface and asked, "Okay." When to go? ”
Round Face said, "Right now." I'll pick you up. ”
Conan said, "Okay. We're all at home. ”
Conan hung up the phone and said to his wife, "She'll pick us up right away." ”
Conan's wife said, "Okay, I'll wash my face and clean up." I didn't expect to go out today. Wash your face, too. It looks dirty. ”
Conan said, "I washed my hands just now, give me the child, you wash first." I'll just wipe my face in a moment. Man, it's better to keep it simple. ”
With that, Conan's wife went into the bathroom.
