Chapter 11: We just want to do the job of a mayor

When the villagers of Shuangqiao Village heard Qiao Xin say that their village is suitable for large-scale fruit cane planting, they all said that they would be willing to plant it if someone came to buy it.

But when it came to asking them to dig the village's sewage ditch and septic tank, they were silent.

"Fellow villagers, your mayor Xiao wants to save this project money to build a large reading room in your village, and then each household will take turns to clean and be on duty, so that everyone can go inside to read books and magazines, and children can have a good reading environment from an early age, so that they can win at the starting line." Qiao Xin said.

"What's the use of just having a reading room? Where do we have so much money to buy books? Someone said loudly.

Qiao Xin smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this problem, your Mayor Xiao is from a big city, and he has a way to collect books for you." All you need to do is go to work, save the money for the project, and give it to Mayor Xiao to help you build this reading room. ”

At this time, an aunt said sharply: "You always come to persuade us to work for nothing, and you still find so many excuses, the real purpose is to embezzle the project funds!" Don't think we're hillbillies and don't know about the corruption and darkness in your officialdom. ”

Xiao Rui's face turned the color of pig liver, and he wanted to stand up, but Qiao Xin reached over and pulled his sleeve, shook his head at him, and motioned for him to be calm.

Qiao Xin looked at her aunt and said, "Auntie, I admire you for daring to say what is in your heart, much better than those who are yin and yang, say one thing and do another!" But I want to tell you, you misunderstood me and Mayor Xiao, if we want to embezzle the project money, we don't need to come here to mobilize everyone to work, we can directly contract the project to the contractor, and then let them give us kickbacks. However, we resolutely do not do such corrupt things, we just want to do a good job as a town mayor and find ways to lead the villagers to make a fortune. ”

Qiao Xin's words silenced the villagers again, although they do not belong to the village under the jurisdiction of Jiangcheng Town, but their village is adjacent to Xinhua Village, and Qiao Xin's deeds of becoming the mayor step by step from a women's director of a village committee are very clear, Qiao Xin is really a good and honest mayor.

Qiao Xin continued: "Every year, enthusiastic people from Dadao City donate books to schools and children in the mountains, and I thought: In school, children should pay attention to the lectures, how can they have time to read extracurricular books? If there is a reading room in the village, children can go there to read their homework after school or on holidays and weekends......"

At this time, the villagers raised their hands one after another: "I am willing to go!" I'm willing to go ......."

Finally, all the men, women and children of Shuangqiao Village volunteered to dig sewage ditches and septic tanks.

……

After more than 100 days of hard work, the village style renovation project of Xinhua Village and Shuangqiao Village is nearing completion, and the rows of neat, brand-new and beautiful villas envy the villagers of Dead Village.

On this day, several village chiefs from remote mountain villages came to the town government to look for Qiao Xin, but were stopped by the office staff.

"What do you have to reflect here?"

One of the village chiefs said angrily: "What's the use of reporting to you? You can't make a decision, we have to ask the mayor of the town clearly, when will it be our turn to build a villa in the village? ”

Office Director: "The higher-ups haven't got the documents down yet, and the mayor doesn't know when the second batch of village landscape renovation projects can be launched." ”

"We don't care about that, we just want to find the mayor to build us a villa!"

"Yes, why should Xinhua Village be built, our village can't."

"We'll have to ask the mayor for clarification."

Five or six village chiefs stood at the door of the office and made a noise.
