Chapter 108: Mayor Chen
The pickaxe in Lao Zhang's hand has been raised, with a little anger in his eyes!
Then he said sharply: "Old woman Xu, don't stop me, this person must not have a good heart when he comes to our Qingyan Town!" ”
The old woman's stature was already short, and he couldn't stop Lao Zhang at all.
She didn't know what she had bumped under her feet, and she sat on the ground with her ass.
"What are you doing!" Zhang Qian scolded in a low voice.
Hurriedly helped the old woman up from the ground.
Then he said: "I said that there is a problem with the well water, if it is not dealt with in time, it will harm the people of the town, who can afford this consequence?" There was seriousness in his tone.
Lao Zhang frowned, and the pickaxe in his hand was slowly lowered.
"Don't scare me with the lives of the whole town, this well water is being eaten by the whole town, there has been no problem at all, and there will be no problem!" He snapped.
Zhang Qian shook his head and said, "This matter is not for you to do, I will go to your mayor!" ”
With that, Zhang Qian helped the old woman out of Lao Zhang's house!
Lao Zhang came to the gate, looked at the back of Zhang Gan's departure, and half-squinted his eyes.
Then he put down the pickaxe in his hand and ran towards the path to the right of the house!
"Young man, old woman, I can see that you are a good person, is there anything wrong with the well water in this town?" The old woman asked hoarsely.
Zhang Qian shook his head and said, "I don't know what is going on yet, I have to understand it before I can make a conclusion." ”
"But what is certain is that there is a problem with the well water, and it cannot be directly drunk for the time being."
"Mother-in-law, can you take me to meet the mayor?"
The old woman frowned.
When she saw that Zhang Qian was so serious, she didn't ask anything! Then she said, "I'll take you now!" ”
With that, the old woman took Zhang Qian to a small road to the west.
The old woman's steps were very slow, and she walked for about twenty minutes.
Zhang Qian followed her to the north of Qingyan Town.
This is the end of the way in from the town.
When the two of them were on the main road, the old woman pointed ahead and said, "That is the mayor's house, and he should be at home now." ”
Zhang Qian followed the old woman's direction, and there was a bungalow plastered with cement and sand in the middle of the end of the front.
The bungalow occupies a large area, filling the middle of the end.
But the exterior decoration is not much different from the houses on both sides.
There are two entrance gates on either side of the bungalow!
Although it looks like the house is connected, it is likely that there are two families!
The red gate on the right is closed, and the hidden gate on the left is suddenly opened!
Two people walked out of it quickly!
The two faced each other, their mouths moving, not knowing what they were talking about.
One of them suddenly turned around and pointed to the east, his face visibly flustered.
Zhang Qian was shocked to find that that person was Lao Zhang!
Then he glanced at the old woman beside him and said softly, "Let's go over!" ”
The old woman nodded, took the cane in her hand, and walked forward tremblingly.
"Mayor Chen." After the old woman walked in with Zhang Qian, she shouted hoarsely.
"Po Xu, why are you here?"
The man who spoke looked to be about fifty years old, with short hair, dark skin, thin skin on his face, prominent cheekbones, and a shrewdness in his eyes!
Xu Po moved her right hand holding the cane towards Zhang Qian.
Then he said hoarsely, "This young man said that he had something to look for you, so I will bring him to meet you." ”
At this time, Lao Zhang on the side stepped forward and said: "It's him, saying something inexplicable at my house, I don't know what idea he is making!" ”
Mayor Chen half-narrowed his eyes, slowly raised his right hand, and motioned to Lao Zhang to stop talking.
At the same time, his eyes looked Zhang Qian up and down.
Then he said: "I am the mayor of Qingyan Town, so my surname is Chen, I don't know what happened when Mr. came to my Qingyan Town?" His tone was calmer.
Zhang Qian frowned slightly, nodded politely and said, "Hello Mayor Chen, my name is Zhang Qian." ”
"Yesterday I passed by Qingyan Town, and it was dark at that time, so I spent the night at this mother-in-law's house."
"I found that there are some problems with the well water you drink in Qingyan Town, and now I have come to Mayor Chen, and I want Mayor Chen to inform everyone in the town not to use the water in the well first!"
Mayor Chen nodded and said, "I also heard Lao Zhang say this matter just now, I don't know why Mr. said this?" ”
Zhang Qian shook his head and frowned: "Now I can only determine that there is a problem with this well water, and I still have to investigate what the specific problem is." ”
Mayor Chen pinched his chin a few times with his right index finger and thumb, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Then he said: "There are many years of wells dug out by every household in Qingyan Town, and all the people in our town rely on the water in this underground dark river to live, if it stops, we can only run to a big river a few kilometers away from Qingyan Town to draw water!" ”
"As you can see, there aren't many townspeople in the town who have cars, and the country roads are relatively rough, so cars may not be able to get there!"
"Mr. was just passing by Qingyan Town, and suddenly said that there was a problem with the well water, I can trust Mr., but the townspeople of Qingyan Town are not necessarily!" He behaved calmly.
Zhang Qian's brows furrowed, although it was no problem for Mayor Chen to say this.
But at the end of the day, I still don't want to believe in myself!
And normal people hear that there is a problem with the water they drink, it shouldn't be such a performance!
