Conan felt very strange and a little surprised, could it be that there was a thief? Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked, "What steel bar?" ”

"He hauled the rebar from the warehouse home. The people who helped saw it. Jia Youniu said.

"He, who is he?" Ji Conan asked.

"Who else is Jia Finance." Jia Youniu said.

"Really? So no one reported it? It's okay to report the crime, has anyone called the police? Yoon Hyun-in asked.

"Report? Alarm? No. Jia Youniu said.

"Why not?" Conan asked.

"It didn't work. The World Bank's project, they openly took it to their home, and some villagers reported it, but it couldn't be done, and the report letter returned to them, and they also took the opportunity to retaliate. Who dares to report it again? Jia Youniu said.

Yin Xianren and Conan were silent, there is no way to solve this problem, Yin Xianren and Ji Conan went to the village just to do the project, and other things can't be done, Jia Finance was elected by the villagers, this can't be helped, the project time is short, and then dismissed, and then re-elected, I'm afraid the time is spent on this, the construction period of the project is certain, can't wait, if you are entangled in this area for too much time, I'm afraid it will affect the progress of the project, can't complete the task on time, delay the acceptance, that's not fun, if you delay the acceptance of the second phase of the project, The third phase of the project is gone, and the impact is very far-reaching. There is no project to do, which means that Ji Conan and they are unemployed.

Conan regretted it, why did they choose such a village for the project? Now it is impossible to withdraw the project unless the amount of aid is reduced, but the village will definitely not agree. If you don't agree to do this, if the reinvestment funds go in, they still divide them, the villagers will not benefit, and the purpose of the donation will not be achieved.

"Let's go find Mr. Li and see what he can explain. This is not a trivial matter, and it will have international implications. Yin Xianren said.

"Okay. Let's go together. Conan said.

Seeing this situation, Jia Youniu flinched a little, and said, "Go ahead, I still have some business, so I won't accompany you." ”

Conan knew that he was a little afraid of Jia Cai, the villagers, he didn't look up and looked down, if he didn't make a sound, wouldn't he be a blind toss? also offended people, provoked a commotion, and couldn't get it. Conan could understand Jia Youniu's mood at this time, so he didn't force him, he had to go.

Walking from the path, the weeds on the road are growing wildly, the path has been covered, the green grass and small yellow flowers grow on the yellow dirt road, not pure dirt, mixed with white and brown pebbles and fine sand, occasionally at the turn, there are one or two cyan boulders, lying there silently, enduring the sun exposure and the erosion of rain and snow, the wind blows fiercely in the four seasons, the bluestone is still bluestone, still hard and indifferent. There are birds in the grove, and they listen to each other, and they don't know whether they are courting or fighting, singing in competitions or talking to each other, those languages, only they understand.

When he arrived at Director Li's house, he hadn't gone out yet, and after sitting down, Conan said: "Some people say that Jia Caijing used the steel bars in the warehouse to build a new house, I don't know if you have heard about it." ”

Officer Li's eyes lit up, he lit a cigarette roll, rolled into dark brown tobacco leaves, took a sharp puff, and then slowly spit it out, Conan and Yin Xianren couldn't stand the choking smell of smoke, but they didn't complain, they both wanted to hear what Secretary Li had to say.

"I've heard about it, too. Now that this matter has reached the ears of the two gentlemen, I think it will be sooner or later. It's a long story, and I haven't told you both. Since Jia Xinyi served as the finance officer of the project site, he has never received a salary, and the project office does not have this expenditure budget, so I forget it, being scolded, it is just a gust of wind, and it will be good to pass, at least I can benefit from this project. He is different, he doesn't get paid, and he is not a beneficiary of the project, so you need to think about why he wants to serve everyone? Do you want to give him some physical goods? This problem is still not solved, and it has been dragging on. You can't just let the horses run and not give them fodder, right? Immediately, Jia Xinyi's son wanted to get married, but the woman didn't like the old house, so she had to build a new house before she was willing to marry. Officer Li said.

"Oh, then, you know exactly how much rebar he's pulling, right?" Conan said.

"Clearly, he greeted me when he pulled it, and I didn't feel at ease, so I went to see it. I remember having accounts. He said he borrowed it and promised to pay it back. Officer Li said.

"Really? This matter is not trivial, you must know that our funds are donated by caring people in Jianghai District, not bank loans, not money falling from the sky, it is not easy to come by. Jianghai District is a big city, which is typical, and the situation here will soon be known over there. If this is not properly addressed, it is an international repercussion. Yin Xianren said.

Officer Lee blinked his eyes and snorted strangely in his nose, seemingly disdainful of Yoon Hyun-in. He cleared his throat, spat out a mouthful of disgusting, thick phlegm, and rubbed his foot back and forth on it. Conan saw that there was gray and yellow dust everywhere on the cyan cement floor, and suspected that every place was polluted by Li Zhishu's thick phlegm, so he felt that there was nowhere to put his feet, and he felt uncomfortable.

Director Li is obviously not interested in Yin Xianren's big hat, and it doesn't matter, he thinks, this is on my mountain, my territory, I have the final say, your set doesn't work here, I have seen a lot of big hats, I am not afraid of pressure, and I can't suppress it. He did not speak, smoking in silence.

Conan thought to himself, Yin Xianren used the Jianghai District to press him, it was useless! People dare to use the loans of the World Bank, tear down the east wall to make up the west wall, and divert the east and west, what is your money? No matter whose money it is, when it arrives in Hupo Village, it is like a meat bun beating a dog and there is no return, who else do you say those big truths to hear?

In the past few years, the World Bank loaned greening project, they did not repay the money, or solved it, how to solve it, it is not clear, or people see that the big thing is not good, and when they leave, they know that there is no money, they do not expect to be able to repay, how can they have the money to repay? Can you move the pool? If you can, move away, no water comes in anyway, no lid, it doesn't matter; Can trees be cut down? If you can cut it, cut it and pull it away, and you can't wait to cut it down, it occupies arable land, and the oranges don't grow a few, and it wastes land resources.

"Regarding the issue of steel bars, I am responsible for supervising Jia Xinyi's repayment, and the villagers on the mountain also need steel bars to make small and medium-sized pools. Rest assured, two gentlemen! Officer Li said.

"That's good! When will it be returned, please give me a time. Otherwise, we won't be able to make a difference. Yin Xianren said.

"Within a month." Officer Li said.

"Okay, that's a deal. Happy working together! Conan said. In fact, Conan knew very well that it was impossible to return it within a month, and this was their delaying tactic. The completion of a house is not a month to succeed, it takes a year for the slow and half a year for the fast. Jia Finance has money, he can buy it directly, no need to borrow, this borrowing is equivalent to a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return.

"The village has to worry about everything, and I don't think the management committee has any effect." Officer Li said.

"This is required by the institution, and the project time is relatively small, and the establishment of a management committee requires long-term training. It's important to find the right person. Conan said.

"Now things have changed. When we set up the management committee in Hongshan Village, Songgang City, there were still some young people in the village who did not go out to work. Up to now, there are fewer and fewer young people in the village, and it is difficult to find candidates. Yin Xianren said.

"That's right. The meeting is about to start, and I have already informed the management committee to gather at the 5 groups of Jia Sizhi's house, and we will go together later. Hey, my old woman, I've been here for a long time, and I haven't made tea yet. Officer Li said.

He got up and went out to look for his wife, but when he couldn't find it, he said to himself, "Maybe I've brought my grandson to the door." Leave her alone, let's go! Let's go to Jia Sizhi's house and drink tea again. ”

Conan and Yoon Hyun-in got up, Secretary Lee asked them to go ahead, and Conan and Yoon Hyun-in humbled and let him lead the way. Director Li was no longer polite, and walked in the direction of Jia Sizhi's house.

After about 20 minutes, along the village road, I finally walked to Jia Sizhi's house. The village road is actually a dirt road, full of potholes, and it is difficult to walk. The tires of the car will push out of the deep groove on both sides, protruding in the middle, with grass growing on it, and there are a few places with terrible big rocks, and the car with a low chassis is likely to get bruised and cause it to stall. Generally speaking, the motor vehicles that can walk this way, in addition to motorcycles, are agricultural vehicles and jeeps or off-road vehicles. The rotary tiller is not used, and the slope of the hillside makes it impossible for the rotary tiller to operate. Of course, it is not a matter of effort to walk such a mountain path.

Jia Sizhi's home is between the water source and the pool, on the edge of the village-level road, Conan and when they arrived at his house, he hurriedly called his wife to pour tea for the guests, he is a high-ranking paraplegic patient, takes medicine all the year round, and in order to subsidize the family, he opened a small shop at home to facilitate the life of the surrounding people. Everyone also took care of his family, and always came to his house to buy things. He was originally a healthy man, but when he was young, he was a tractor driver in the village, he was very smart, he had no knowledge of machinery, and he could speak well, so he became a well-known person. The key is that he is sensible, considers the problem more comprehensively, can also mediate disputes, and has a high prestige, but because of his disability, he did not participate in the project management, which is very regrettable.

After a while, people began to arrive.

The beginning of the meeting is different from the usual meeting, the meeting will talk about the problem, how to solve it, and do not talk about it.

"I will dig the pipe groove immediately, mobilize everyone to work together, dig the pipe groove, prepare to bury the water pipe, and let Li Jialiangzi eat tap water as soon as possible." Officer Li said.

"No, I can't. Can't pass behind our house, what if the water pipe explodes? Said the representative of Group 5.

"So what do you say?" Jia Finance asked.

"I don't care, you can't get through the water pipe from us anyway." Group 5 representatives said:

"It's difficult, it's difficult, can't you fly from the sky?" Li Huafa said:

"It's none of our business whether we fly or not, we don't have water to eat, who cares about us? Why don't you let us take water? Could it be that we were born from second wives? Said the representative of Group 5.

"They are all born to the eldest mother, no second mother, they are treated equally, treated fairly, and there is no discrimination. If you have any opinions, you can put forward them, so you can talk about them. Jia Mingzhu said.

"Everyone, don't make a fuss, I'll have a plan. See if it works. Whoever passes through the water pipe, open a tee in whose house, the thickness becomes thinner, until the kitchen exterior wall of each house, and the indoor water pipe installation is responsible for itself. Officer Li said.

"That, that, how? If every house has an opening, will the water come to us? Is there enough water? If everybody wastes it, and the water flows openly, and the water is used to fight the drought, and we all die of thirst, and people pour water into their paddy fields, then, can that be done? Li Huafa said.

"What's the opinion of the others?" Officer Li said.

"I support Lao Li's suggestion. However, every household needs to install a water meter. Wealthy people can afford water, even if they release it to fight drought. Charge according to the reading of the water meter, how much is per ton, and then negotiate, refer to the previous standard. You can ask the opinion of Jia Maogang, the old water steward, about this. Jia Mingzhu said.

"This proposal is very good, as long as you are a local tyrant, you can spend money at will, just release water to fight drought, or raise fish, as long as you have money, don't interfere, who else can add?" Officer Li asked.

"I basically agree with Lao Li's opinion, and I would like to thank the two project directors of the foundation! You've done a great job! Coming so far to our village to give love, he is really a good person I have never seen in my life. Everyone makes a step, learns from others, and gives love. Water is not **, how can it collapse the house? In case of collapse, I will be responsible for compensation. Everyone installs water meters and calculates water bills according to readings, without discrimination. I support! Jia Sizhi said.

"That's still not guaranteed, our households are closer to another water source, we don't want to share a water pipe with Li Jialiangzi, we need to make another pool, this condition must be met, otherwise we are not allowed to cross the water pipe." Said the representative of Group 5.

"That, that's good, you are ruthless, ruthless, see who is ruthless! If you will not allow us to drink, we will not allow you to walk. The road in the village passes through Li's Liangzi, and your agricultural vehicles, including people, are not allowed to walk in front of our door. Li Huafa said.

"It's not fun to make a fuss like this, so why bother? Everyone is from the same village, and they are all villagers outside. When the fellow saw the fellow, his eyes were full of tears. Kiss or not, hometown people. The water pipes must be connected to someone, and there is no compensation. I wanted to dig in the first two months, considering that everyone's crops were not harvested, for fear of destroying the green seedlings, now the harvest is harvested, the ground is also idle, take this opportunity to dig the pipe groove, bury the water pipe, this year to kill the pig will not have to carry water to scald the pig, do not worry, if everyone is so deadlocked, the victim is still the big guy. Jia Finance said. He will say, however, that what he has done is not well received, and how to solve this problem needs to be further discussed.

Conan listened to Jia Finance, and it seemed to make sense. However, you can't scrutinize it carefully, and if you do, you will find loopholes, but fortunately, everyone doesn't seem to have listened to him carefully, or has heard it, but at this time everyone is silent.
