Chapter 7 Do not fight against fate
Li Yan stood under the street lamp, looking at the red, green, and green neon signs in the distance. In my hand is the phone number that has been dialed.
"Hello?"
On the other end of the phone, it was a familiar male voice.
"Brother Kun? Are you home? ”
Li Yan raised his eyebrows in some surprise.
"Well, my mother asked me to take the children back to dinner on the weekend, and it's rare for you to call my home."
"Where's the second uncle?"
"What's wrong with reading the newspaper in the study?"
Chen Kun helped his eyes, and the telephone in his hand was a microphone.
"Oh, there's a ......"
Dust rose under the golden streetlights, and the sound of steam and iron came from the factory in the night. The vast yellow earth was dotted with barren grasses, and Li Yan's lips moved as he looked at the people sitting around smoking cigarettes at the factory gate.
"That's about it."
After Li Yan finished speaking, he smiled and said, "I'm also considered to be." Report to the veteran cadres on the situation at the grassroots level. ”
"Oh......"
Chen Kun pondered for a while and said, "This matter, Sensei is looking for my father, I'll do it for you." ”
Li Yan didn't blink his eyelids: "Okay, then it's decided." ”
There was a hearty laugh on the other end of the phone: "Hahaha~ Hey no, I'm just a small civil servant, so you can let me do it with confidence?" ”
"Hey, just do your best, I'll just mention it. Can't bother you, can you? ”
"Don't do it." Chen Kun scolded with a smile: "Okay, I'll think about it." ”
The two chatted for a few words, and Li Yan hung up the phone. looked up at the first moon, and estimated that Danniang was probably still waiting for her to eat.
Uncle Liu's nephew's idea, Li Yan felt that it was not very reliable. However, people swore that the "Director Bing" could come over to solve this matter today, and Li Yan didn't have much to say, and he called the old man to do his part, just in case.
However, it was dark this day, and the "Secretary Bing" who would come in the afternoon still had no news.
Li Yan walked to Old Man Liu's eldest son, and someone handed him a cigarette, but Li Yan still didn't light it, and said: "Xuewu, I, someone at home has left food, I have to go back to say hello, there is a situation here, you can call me at any time." After a pause, he said again: "If Director Bing doesn't come tonight, you persuade the old man to let him go back first, he is not too young, don't stay here." Where there is reason, let him be relieved first. ”
Liu Xuewu looked anxious. But he still nodded: "Brother Yan, you go first, I called to ask, my cousin (the nephew in Old Man Liu's mouth) said that Director Bing arrived at noon and had a meeting here." According to the regulations, he is now on the side of the village committee to understand the situation. ”
Li Yanyi sneered: "This surname Bing, which department is the director?" ”
"Oh, he's ......"
Liu Xuewu was about to open his mouth.
"It's coming, it's coming~"
I don't know who shouted, but the workers in charge and the villagers who gathered were all brightened, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm. A black Great Wall car turned at the intersection, and several in a row, taking the lead in driving here, Old Man Liu answered the phone and got out of the car with an excited expression.
There were a lot of people who came, leaders of the village committee, the town government, and all aspects, among which there was a well-dressed young man, who was the nephew of Old Man Liu, who also worked in the organ. Next to him was the belated Director Bing.
This Director Bing looked to be fifty years younger, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a red face, and a sincere smile.
Old man Liu just came over, half a year ago, the village party secretary who delivered pork to every household, Rong Jinfei quit, he shouted angrily: "Liu Jicheng! If you have a situation, go to the village committee to react, you came here to make trouble, it is illegal, do you know? If we hadn't negotiated with the factory, the police station would have come to arrest you a long time ago. ”
Uncle Liu is a handful of years old, and his cultural level is indeed not high, but he is really not afraid of things, he glared at Rong Jinfei, and saw his nephew's eyes, so he did it stupidly. Unexpectedly, Director Bing on the side opened his mouth for himself: "This, Comrade Rong Jinfei, let me express my opinion, there is a problem in the work of the village committee, we must find the reason for ourselves, the difficulties of the people cannot be solved, and some excited behaviors can be made, which can be understood. “
Rong Jinfei's face was embarrassed, and he smiled on his greasy face: "Yes, yes, that's the truth." ”
Old man Liu has such a group of voices, looking at Director Bing's gaze is immediately different, he nervously wiped the sweat from his palms, Director Bing took the initiative to ask, "Are you...... Comrade Liu Jicheng, who reported the problem to us a few days ago, right? ”
"Yes, yes."
Old man Liu nodded again and again.
Director Bing held her hand, like a spring breeze: "Hello brother, my surname is Bing, I am from the province, it is our ......" He briefly described his identity, looked left and right, and then turned back and said: "That's the case!" Yes! As for me, I wanted to go to this place to understand the situation first, but I was short of time and didn't have time. Why don't you go to your house, including this one, and the few villagers who have suffered losses. Can you tell me more about this? ”
Old man Liu was very happy, and he was about to agree in a daze, but next to Secretary Bing, the meticulous young man snorted: "Director, I see, we are all at the gate of the factory, why don't we meet the person in charge of the factory and sit together to solve the problem." Don't go door-to-door with this black light. A few families, I texted them and told them to come over. ”
When Old Man Liu heard this, he hurriedly nodded: "The cemetery is shoveled by the factory's truck, so it won't work without them." ”
Director Bing glanced at the young man without a trace, and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense, then let's go talk first?" ”
This Xiao Wang was glanced at by Director Bing, his face was stiff, and he regretted it a little, but he still stubbornly said: "Let's go in and talk, let's go in and talk." ”
Li Yan didn't move forward, he was annoyed by this, he listened to the conversation of several people, and the feet that had taken more than half a step were retracted, and he pursed his lips and stared at Director Bing in the crowd.
A group of people moved the big truck first, and the "minister" who was scared away by Li Yan during the day came over, and said a few polite words to Director Bing and others, and everyone walked into the factory, and most of the unrelated people were scattered.
Liu Xuewu walked over excitedly: "Brother Yan, what you said is really good, there is always a place for reason in this heaven and earth." ”
Li Yan nodded.
"Brother Yan, I see that there is a door to this matter, so why don't you call home and don't go back. Come in with us, and you have to have a great credit for this. When Director Bing solves this matter, our family will invite you to dinner. ”
"Okay, I'll go in with you."
Li Yan said with a smile.
"Okay." Liu Xuewu pulled Li Yan inside, and Li Yan suddenly said: "Also, your cousin is good, don't care if this thing is done or not, you will have more contacts in the future." ”
"That's, we grew up together."
Liu Xuewu said with a smile. But Li Yan's implication was not heard at all.
