It had been raining for almost a day and night, and the rain stopped.

Overall, the rain was not heavy, mainly drizzle, and it only rained moderately for a while.

In the morning after the rain, the sky was clear, and the air smelled of earth and grass.

The fiery red sun hung in the sky, and soon evaporated clouds of mist, and the entire construction site was shrouded in ethereal white air.

The whole Fengjiao Highway is a gravel section, the first phase of the project is now not too much new gravel, the ground in time to absorb the rainwater that is not concentrated, and does not form a large pothole, even if there is occasional water, it is only a small piece of mud. There are not many motor vehicles on rural roads, especially large trucks, which will not have any impact on the roads after the rain.

After all, after more than 20 hours, the construction site did not resume work as soon as possible, but only the management and technical personnel retrieved the road sections and simply processed individual lots.

After a full day of exposure, the damp and wet ground returned to a dry state, and the construction site officially resumed. Just at the end of the concrete test block, the data is fully in line with the cement label, the lime on credit is also in place in time, the stone supply is normal, and the first phase of the project begins to enter the surface hardening stage.

Looking at the busy and orderly project site, listening to the "rumbling" sound of the mixer, and imagining the flat cement pavement, Li Guanglei was in a comfortable mood and full of pride.

At this time, a "red hard hat" ran up to him and greeted: "Hello Team Leader Li!" ”

"Manager Wu, Section Chief Wu, hard work, it's really good!" Li Guanglei took half a step forward and stretched out his hand.

"You still call me Xiao Wu." After shaking hands and being polite, Manager Wu changed the topic, "Team Leader Li, please help urge, we can't open the pot, there are too many pasted in, and the whole operation is very difficult." ”

"You have a lot of money, don't be overly modest." made a joke, and then Li Guanglei said again, "The application for payment has already been reported, and you know that it was reported in mid-June, and it should be approved soon." We also have people staring at it, it is estimated that it is a matter of the past two days, don't be impatient, and wait for news while building. ”

"That's good, that's good." Manager Wu's face was happy, but his tone changed, "The project funds are allocated as soon as possible, firstly, it can alleviate our problem of advancing funds, and secondly, it can pay for part of the labor." The most important thing is that they have been working for a long time before, and people are looking forward to seeing cash, which is not only their own economic needs, but also their desire for labor remuneration. ”

Li Guanglei nodded and smiled: "Understand, understand, it's really time to pay." ”

Manager Wu continued: "The villagers have come to us many times, and many villagers are worried about ......."

"Ding Bang", the bell rang, interrupting Manager Wu's words.

Manager Wu said hello unwillingly and turned to leave.

took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a huge number, Li Guanglei walked to a secluded place and pressed the answer button: "How is it?" ”

"Nope." Huge just returned.

Li Guanglei frowned: "No? Why? ”

The other party replied: "Chen Xuemei said that the payment procedures are incomplete, and the stage acceptance materials are missing ......"

After listening patiently, Li Guanglei asked: "That's nothing, and I explained it to them at the time, but they didn't say anything at that time." ”

"I also said, but Chen Xuemei said that as the most critical procedure for appropriation, and the last pass, the town's finance must be strictly implemented in accordance with the requirements of the document. The reason why I didn't bring it up before was because I was more cautious, and I was also trying to fully understand the documents, and I was waiting for more professional guidance. At this point, he scolded on the mobile phone, "She's just farting, didn't she mean to play tricks and make things difficult?" It's not that there is a ......."

Li Guanglei interrupted the other party: "Don't complain yet, is there any room for maneuver?" You can discuss it with her again, but you really can't find the town leader. ”

"I've discussed it with her, and when all the good things are said, it's almost kowtow. If kowtow really works, in order to ask for money for the construction unit, for the sake of the villagers of Fengjiao, I can also admit it. But what she said was too dead, and she went directly to the platform, saying that if she didn't implement it according to the regulations, she would be derelict in her duties, and she would even commit a crime, she didn't dare to take this responsibility, and the town leaders might not dare either. She also added that even if the town leaders spoke, she would not dare to carry it out unless she was taken down, unless she was completely excluded from taking the job from responsibility. The sentence was full of helplessness.

I understand, this is a heartless refusal, it is useless to find anyone, it is obviously negotiated by others. Li Guanglei groaned slightly, and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Then what did she say?" ”

"Strictly follow the procedures, there can be no ambiguity at all, and then re-declare and re-review." The other party gives the answer.

Damn, stinky*. Secretly scolded, Li Guanglei said: "Then do this first." You are still in the town for the time being, and I will give you an answer after I report to Team Leader Ge. ”

Ending the call, Li Guanglei turned his head to look, but did not find Ge Yuqing's figure.

took out the mobile phone, dialed Ge Yuqing's number, dialed it twice, and it showed that the line was busy.

Li Guanglei put away his mobile phone, sighed and sulked, and his mood was a little complicated.

Some time ago, when the "Village-to-Village" was just approved, I was still worried that Zou Dapeng and others would be involved in the project, and I was also worried that the town and county would interfere too much for the sake of political achievements. Later, the things I worried about didn't appear, and I was secretly glad that now it seems that these people are well versed in it, but they are still naïve and don't realize it. A few days ago, I only realized that it was difficult to approve the special fund, and now it seems that I need to add a few more "more" words.

"Guanglei, Guanglei." A call rang out.

Li Guanglei turned his head to see that it was Ge Yuqing who was coming towards him, so he also greeted him.

The two didn't talk too much, they all ran to the car tacitly, and the driver also left the car with interest.

As soon as he took his seat in the car, Ge Yuqing said: "Just now, several people in the working group called and said that there were difficulties at home, some said that the child needed nutrition for the exam, some said that the elderly would go to the hospital for examination, and some said that the daughter-in-law's nephew had a wedding gift. In fact, it's not the salary to be paid in advance? ”

"It's no wonder that people ask for money, since the last time they lent it to the working group, they didn't get paid. There are rumors outside that we got more than 4 million, but people didn't wait to take the initiative to repay the money, and everyone would think more about it and do it. After a pause, Li Guanglei said, "I just received a call from Da Dagang, saying that the project payment was not approved, and the reason was that the procedures were not perfect. ”

Ge Yuqing hurriedly scolded: "Let go of his mother's shit, at that time it was clearly said that he could ...... first"

"Team leader, listen to me, listen to me, Chen Xuemei ......" Li Guanglei interrupted the other party and paraphrased what Da Dagang said.

"Alas, deliberately stumbling up, I'm afraid it's not certain how much these 700,000 can be used, whether it can be used or not." After sighing, Ge Yuqing gritted his teeth again, "Damn, if they dare to hack this money, Lao Tzu will risk his life, and he will have to fight them to break the blood." ”

"Say what? No, no, we don't have to do that. Li Guanglei waved his hand again and again, so he was relaxed, "It seems to be a little ruthless now, but in fact, in the long run, it is also beneficial, at least the money is worth spending, which is equivalent to saving some more time." ”

Ge Yuqing shook his head: "But if it's stuck like this, we won't even get a penny, and we won't be able to live the rest of our lives." ”

"No, it's not like it, the little ones shouldn't be so stuck, how can they get a little bit out." Li Guanglei said.

"Ding Woo Bang", the bell rings.

Glancing at the screen and saying "Qi Zuren's", Ge Yuqing pressed the answer button, and the other party's voice came immediately.

"What?" As soon as he heard a sentence, Ge Yuqing shouted and pressed the speakerphone.

The voice on the mobile phone sounded clearly: "Chen Xuemei said that rice, flour, grain and oil are not within the scope of the request at all, and they are simply looking for reasons to withdraw cash." She also said that this kind of behavior is a serious violation of the appropriation regulations, it is a violation, and it is even a crime, and we are asked not to make an example. ”

"Damn, so many villagers work on the road, they have to eat and drink, how can they do without money, what do they eat?" Ge Yuqing scolded.

The other party replied: "Chen Xuemei said that the project budget and final accounts are comprehensive, which already includes labor wages, material payments, equipment rental fees, food expenses, etc., and cannot be separately requested." ”

Ge Yuqing continued to scold: "Damn, it seems that she is quite knowledgeable." But aren't we in a special situation? A lot of the expenses are paid directly by us, so we can also spread the financial pressure appropriately. ”

There was a wry smile on the phone: "I also explained to her like this, but she said, 'It must be formal', and told me a bunch of regulations, which are conclusive and righteous, and they are almost ......."

"Mom a*", scolded a dirty word, and without waiting for the other party to finish, Ge Yuqing directly pressed the red button. Then he sighed: "I don't approve all of them." ”

Li Guanglei also said: "I have been prepared for a long time." ”

There was silence in the car, and the silence was so dull that it was breathless, and it was getting more and more stuffy.

"What should I do?" Ge Yuqing broke the inhibition.

yes, what to do. Li Guanglei responded secretly, but did not say anything.

"For this road, I went to the city and the county seat, looking for this and asking for that, but except for Lao Yu, who is still righteous, no one takes this stubble at all. The point is, there is really no one to find now, and those who have a little real power don't answer my phone at all, and they are not even as good as a living person. Speaking of this, Ge Yuqing sighed again, "Hey, what's even worse is that there is that bastard who deliberately spreads rumors, and the creditors all believe that we have a lot of money, and it is pressing step by step." ”

Li Guanglei still did not answer, and he had nothing to answer.

After being quiet for a while, Ge Yuqing gritted his teeth, and finally said an unspeakable thought: "Guanglei, why don't you go out and try." ”

"Me? I don't care. Li Guanglei's tone was very uneasy.

"But is there any other way now? Even if there is a little hope, I will not ...... Ay. Ge Yuqing couldn't help but let out another long sigh.
