For a period of time after the meeting, Li Guanglei called several times to ask about the village's attitude.

The village cadres all said that they had conveyed the spirit of the meeting as soon as possible, and made a detailed interpretation and mobilization to the villagers, but the villagers did not have any enthusiasm. In reply to Li Guanglei, the village cadres described the attitude of the villagers very vividly, and even described the voice, emotions, and body movements of the villagers at that time.

Ge Yuqing also personally urged him, and the answer he received was the same, which made him very distressed, and he couldn't help but reflect on the recklessness of the decision to build the road. But there is no turning back from the start of construction, and now it is difficult to ride a tiger, so I can only rush forward. But after thinking of several methods, it didn't work at all, and I had to do it for the time being.

Recently, the news of road construction has spread throughout Yuhanlin Town, especially in Fengjiao villages, and the attitude of the villagers has also been widely disseminated.

Most of the villagers had a premonition about the reaction of the villagers, and they did not feel abrupt, and felt that it should be so. People regarded the road construction as a joke, and ridiculed Ge and Li one after another, saying that they wanted to go crazy for political achievements, and even derogated Ge Yuqing as worthless.

In the town and village, it has entered the Spring Festival holiday.

Work is blocked, and personal affairs are not satisfactory. I had long planned to visit my parents-in-law during the Spring Festival, but with the fact that he was "fishing for law enforcement" last time, Li Guanglei did not need to make a trip to the source. During the Spring Festival, they basically stayed at home, that is, they simply got together with their nearby classmates.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Li Guanglei returned to the working group and was directly called to the team leader's office by Ge Yuqing.

After a simple greeting, Ge Yuqing went straight to the point: "This won't work." A few years ago, I specifically asked the county transportation bureau and other departments that if they want to get support, they must at least move and have a certain scale. During the Spring Festival holiday, I also had a special meeting with the director of the transportation bureau, and he emphasized this point again, otherwise they would have no reason to support it, and even if they wanted to, they would not be able to go through the procedure. ”

"We were doing things for them when the transportation bureau was supposed to do the project, but now we have begged them." Li Guanglei deliberately complained.

"Xiao Li, don't say such things now, it's just that it's okay for the two of us to say, if we are in front of my subordinates and villagers, the impact will be too bad." After a serious stroke, Ge Yuqing's tone softened a little, "If you want to build this road, you need to do a lot of work, don't look at the lack of substantial progress at this stage, in fact, in addition to looking for the Transportation Bureau, I have also found other departments, and also found some social enterprises." People agree with the Transportation Bureau that the road construction work must be moved, according to our existing conditions, that is, we must first be self-reliant, and the basis of self-reliance is that the villagers should move first. Do you understand? ”

Li Guanglei nodded, but did not answer.

Ge Yuqing frowned slightly, and directly broke the meaning: "If you want to build this road, you need to do a lot of work, and I am looking for departments, enterprises, funds, and support, and I am really too busy, and I don't have so much energy." You also said that the working hours are short, and there is no interaction with these departments and enterprises, which I can't embarrass for you. However, although you have not been here for a long time, you have some contact with the village, especially helped Birch Back Village deal with two major dangers, and you have a high prestige among the villagers, so now you will take charge of mobilizing the villagers. ”

"Okay, I'll try, but the villagers aren't that easy to mobilize." After Li Guanglei finished speaking, he left the team leader's office.

Looking at the departing figure, Ge Yuqing's brows furrowed even tighter, and he secretly said in his heart: Little guy, if you want to withdraw again, how can it be so cheap? Did this kid do it on purpose, or was he really so discouraged?

That being said, Ge Yuqing knew that the actual work was not that difficult, otherwise it would not be without progress. It seems that it is easy to consider the problem by yourself, but it is too late to say anything, so I can only arch forward.

After returning to his office, Li Guanglei did not act immediately, but sat in a chair and pondered for a while before making a few phone calls.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the director of Birch Back Village came politely.

As soon as he entered the house, he often came up to greet the New Year, and asked Li Guanglei when he had time to go to the house for dinner.

Patiently waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Li Guanglei did not interact with him, but said directly: "Director Chang, when we first entered Layue, we had a meeting, and you also know about the road to be repaired." Later, I called you several times, and you also said that you were preparing, how are you preparing now? How much labor can be contributed? Forty or fifty people, right? ”

"What? Four, four ......" Chang Youli jumped up directly from the chair, "I'm afraid that four or five people are enough, and forty or fifty people?" I'm ......."

Li Guanglei interrupted in a deep voice: "It's been more than a month, and there are only four or five people in the whole village, which is too much to say." I don't think you took it seriously at all, you didn't mobilize. ”

Chang Youli immediately cried out: "Team Leader Li, Mayor Li, wronged, great wrong." After this meeting, I immediately reported to the secretary when I returned, discussed with other village committees, and talked to the villagers the next day. Everyone says that building roads is a good thing, but the situation can be scored, after all, this is a public business, and the people can't be burdened and thankless. People also said that although the road was at the gate of the village, they walked up and down the neighboring villages, and the big trucks on the mine were running so hard that they couldn't take their turn from either side. ”

"To make it clear to you that this matter is led by the working group and all parties are gathered to fix it, and the working group is mainly doing this for the convenience of the villagers. As for how the money comes from and how the beneficiaries contribute, the working group will come forward to solve the problem, and the villagers mainly do some basic work. After a brief explanation, Li Guanglei questioned, "Do such a little thing, or mainly do it for yourself, can't the villagers do it too?" Or is there something in it? ”

"There's nothing to say. What can be said? I really conveyed it truthfully, and I worked hard to mobilize, I don't believe you asked the people in the village. Justifying this, Chang Youli sighed, "Each has its own difficulties, and the common people can cats for a few days in winter, and when they wait for the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, they will start to be busy, either pulling dung into the field or going to stubble." In fact, many young people are now gone, and they have all gone to work in other places to earn some money, and the rest of the village is also old and young. Such old and weak people are usually busy enough to farm the land, so how can they have time to do other things. When one more kind of land is on the ground, followed by hoeing, hoeing several times, so busy that I can't straighten my waist, let alone build roads. ”

Li Guanglei did not answer immediately, but stared at the other party.

Chang Youli was hairy, and hurriedly explained: "Team Leader Li, what I said is completely true, it is true that this work is next to each other, and there is no time at all." ”

Li Guanglei snorted coldly: "Hmph, Director Chang, I found that you are too dishonest and too capable of bullying." Although I haven't been here for a long time, I have already dealt with your village twice and dealt with difficult problems for your village, when did you really cooperate? Not only did he not cooperate, but he also specially dismantled the stage, waiting to see my jokes. I remember the last time I helped you get the matching money, you said it better than anyone else, and you even swore a curse, and it looked like the real thing. But within a few days, you played tricks again and bullied me as an outsider.

I haven't done much farm work, but I still know a few things about the countryside. It is true that generally when the first month is out, people begin to prepare for spring ploughing, but only a small number of people in the family do it, and others still have time. Even those who prepare do not go to the field every day, but do something every few days. It is precisely with this in mind that I thought of making some preparations for road construction before spring ploughing, which not only took advantage of the agricultural slack, but also made it convenient for the villagers in the future. Of course, people will be busier after the spring ploughing, but they will still be idle for a while before hoeing is everywhere. In fact, according to the plan of the working group, I didn't plan to use all this time, but just like that, you are still pushing back, and it is clear that you do not support the work. ”

"I, you ......" Chang Youli's face was swollen and red, and he snorted, "Although I am not so busy every day, I really don't have much spare time, after all, most of the strong laborers in the family have gone out to work." ”

Li Guanglei waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, Director Chang, I know that you are so good." At that time, at the meeting, you made it clear that you were willing to support the work and build this road, but it turned out that you were simply fooling people, deceiving the working group, and deceiving Director Ge and me. ”

"No, no." Chang Youli hurriedly said, "I personally really support it, but it's just ......"

"Since you want to be so thoughtful about everything, if you encounter any trouble in the future, don't blame the working group for not coming forward, anyway, I'm not in the mood to take any more risks for you." Speaking of this, Li Guanglei had a cold face, "You go." ”

Chang Youli didn't move his steps, and still hurriedly defended: "I really support it, don't dare to be half-hearted." ”

"It's better to be able to speak than to listen. You are such a big family in Chang, not to mention that your brothers and sisters, sons, nieces and sons-in-law are not just three or four. You hurry back, I'm too lazy to tell you. Li Guanglei was even more impatient, and he didn't bother to raise his head.

"I, you ......" Chang Youli said twice, and made a vague guarantee, "The family should mobilize as much as possible, whether it can be effective, whether the family is busy or not, I can't say for sure." ”

As soon as Chang Youli left, Li Guanglei's brows furrowed, and his expression was not relaxed.

For two days in a row, village cadres from the villages under its jurisdiction came to the working group to report to Li Guanglei. Li Guanglei is still following the prescription of Baiyao, and he is still truncating the promises made at the meeting that day.

The village cadres also reacted similarly to Chang Youpolite, except for explaining the difficulties, they all made vague promises.

A week later, the working group convened a meeting of village officials, the central topic of which was to identify the workers in each village.

As soon as the results were brought up, Ge Yuqing and Li Guanglei looked embarrassed. Most of the villages only reported one person, that is, the cadres of the participating villages, and there were two in individual villages, only the birch back was slightly more, and there were only five people, and those four people were all close relatives of Chang Youyou.

There are only 20 people, how can they work? One kilometer? Ge Yuqing and Li Guanglei were worried.
