In extraordinary times, everyone's enthusiasm is still relatively high.

In the compound of the village committee, the courtyard is full of black people, and the villagers may have come.

Ouyang Hong stood directly on the steps under the eaves, she first waved her hand, and then raised her voice and shouted: "Villagers of Xiping Village, we have suffered a natural disaster that has not been encountered in a century, in the face of the catastrophe, we should work together to tide over this difficulty, some villagers may already know me, I am Ouyang Hong, the new mayor of Pingyang Town."

"The new, the old, has little to do with us, you just say a word, what about us who have fallen into the house?" In the crowd, I don't know who shouted such a sentence.

Ouyang Hong was patient, and pressed it with both hands down, which meant that everyone calmed down first, and then immediately said: "The problem must be solved, but there must be a process to solve the problem, tonight in this busy schedule, gather everyone, not for anything else, but to let the villagers elect a temporary leader who you think can lead everyone through this disaster."

After a bang, the whole audience blew up the nest, and there were people who chose anyone, and some people began to scold Wang Degui on the spot, saying that he was evading responsibility and pretending to be sick. The scene was a little difficult to control for a while, no matter how much Ouyang Hong shouted, no one paid attention to him, and the audience was in chaos.

Xia Sanye stood up in the crowd with his crutches and trembling body, his silver hair and silver beard fluttering slightly in the night breeze gave the audience an invisible deterrent, and the voice gradually became smaller.

"Villagers, my Xia Laosan will be ninety years old this year, and it can be said that the loess is buried to the root of the neck, so I beg everyone, don't do this, this is not an election of the village head, this is a hard work, it can be said that there is no power and no profit, so what are you still fighting about here?" The more he talked, the more angry he became, and he knocked his cane on the ground.

The villagers who had just made a fuss lowered their heads in shame. Xia Sanye is not only the oldest in Xiping Village, but most importantly, he has a majesty that cannot be underestimated.

At this time, one of the women in the root of the West Wall stood up, and she shouted loudly: "What Xia Sanye said is very right, we can't just waste time here, just wait for the government's relief, everyone must know that there are more than 20 villages affected along the river this time, of course, we Xiping is the most severely affected, then we should work harder and fight against the disaster, instead of fighting here."

"It's Zhao Hong" Someone in the crowd said, and everyone looked at each other.

Zhao Hong paused slightly, then continued: "The top priority now is the post-disaster clean-up and reconstruction work, which requires a person who has the ability and heart to serve everyone. Can self-recommend"

This time there was a dumb fire, and hundreds of people in the audience were suddenly silent. Xia Jian, who had been standing behind Ouyang Hong and had not spoken, couldn't help but look at Zhao Hong twice, this woman has changed, she has become more and more powerful, is this still the Zhao Hong he originally knew?

Ouyang Hong can see that only these two people can calm this kind of scene, and she immediately said: "Time is urgent, we don't have more time to think about it, Xia Sanye, come on, who is the most suitable temporary leader?" “

Xia Sanye was on crutches with both hands, and the audience glanced over and said: "Don't avoid suspicion, I think Xia Jian is the most suitable."

There was an uproar, and there was chaos in the venue again, everyone exchanged heads and ears, and began to talk again, some people said that Xia Jian was a gangster, it was okay to fight, it was still inappropriate to do this, and there was even more ridiculous, they asked: "Xia Jian seems to have been out for more than a year, is he back?" “

"It's all at this time, let's stop dividing the Wang family and the Xia family, okay? I agree with Xia Jian to be our temporary leader," Zhao Hong shouted loudly.

Chen Erniu immediately stood up: "I also agree" Xia Sanhu, Zhang Er, and Aunt Zhang, they all shouted Xia Jian's name one by one, and finally the audience moved, even those people surnamed Wang who usually don't want to see Xia Jian, all raised their hands, in the face of the disaster, there is no conflict of interest, only to face it together.

Xia Jian sat at the desk of the village committee, his face was heavy, although he passed the temporary appointment of the whole village, it stands to reason that this is a great thing, which shows that she Xia Jian has made progress and can lead the whole village, but the burden on his shoulders is heavy, and he is almost a little unbearable.

"Mr. Xia, drink it! Otherwise, it's cold" Fang Fang on the side pointed to the porridge in the basin, it was two o'clock in the middle of the night, and Fang Fang brought dinner. The water washed away all the fire, and it was difficult to cook a meal!

Xia Jian let out a sigh of relief, picked up the basin, divided five by two, and reached the bottom of the basin, it was strange if he didn't drink, he hadn't eaten well for more than a day, and it was strange to say that he didn't feel hungry.

"Fang Fang, you will go back to Fuchuan City tomorrow and report the situation here to Mr. Xiao, I won't be able to go back for a while" Xia Jian put down the rice bowl in his hand a little reluctantly, and suddenly said to Fang Fang.

Fang Fang didn't speak, picked up the rice bowl, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "No, I'm not going back, I'm going to help you here, report the matter, I'll go to the town tomorrow morning to call" After speaking, without waiting for Xia Jian to speak, the person was gone.

"Mr. Xia, you subordinates, it seems that they don't listen to you!" Ouyang Hong walked over with a smile and sat opposite Xia Jian.

Xia Jian shook his head helplessly, and then said: "I have already thought about it, tomorrow, you must coordinate from it, put the phone to Xiping Village, and when we wait for the machinery and equipment to arrive, we will start from the west end of the village, clean up one household at a time, and the reconstruction work will immediately follow."

"Okay, these are no problem, I have asked Xiao Wang to write materials about the situation here, and report it to the city overnight, I believe that the city leaders will attach great importance to our situation here." Ay! I really didn't expect that the situation in Xiping Village was so bad, what age is it, there is not even a telephone line, you successful people, you can't patronize yourself, you have to think more about the people in the village" Ouyang Hong said as she spoke, and shifted the topic to Xia Jian.

Xia Jian sneered and said: "Successful fart, migrant worker"

"Cut, extinguish your own prestige, grow the ambition of others, what's wrong with the migrant workers? It's not that he has sat in the position of the CEO of the entrepreneurial group, and he can't find a BMW car in the entire Pingyang Town. My family is in the city, and I am still a top student of Peking University, and now I don't work in the countryside every day" Ouyang Hong said very calmly, without any contrived ingredients in it.

Xia Jian let out a sigh of relief, he knew in his heart that his boss was just a name, and he looked glamorous, but he was actually useless. However, what surprised him a little was Ouyang Hong, who not only had a good background, but also had such a high degree of education, and he didn't have any official shelf at all, and there were really not many such leaders.

The two of them talked and worked as they spoke, and by the time the sky was light, their plan for the post-disaster reconstruction of Xiping Village had been completed.

"Who's the leader here?" a loud voice came from the gate of the village committee. With the voice, a military man in camouflage uniform walked in.

Ouyang Hong and Xia Jian greeted them, Ouyang Hong looked at it, and hurriedly said: "I am the mayor of the town, you seem to be the commander of the rescue here!" Say whatever you want."

At this moment, Fang Fang rushed in with a rice bowl, and when she saw which soldier she was, she was stunned at first, and then shouted: "Chen Jun! Is that you? Ha ha! I thought you were glorious? "This Fang Fang is very arrogant to whoever he speaks, and he doesn't care.

"Fang Fang! I almost didn't recognize it, why did you come here" Chen Jun looked at Fang Fang, who was covered in ashes, and almost laughed.

Fang Fang realized that there was a situation on his face, and immediately put the rice basin on the windowsill, wiped it with his hands, and said with a smile: "Just like you, you are in the rescue, I am coming back with the leader to help the disaster" Fang Fang said, smiling at Xia Jian.

"You'd better hurry back! Our rural life is already hard, coupled with this natural disaster, it is even more difficult for you people in the city to adapt, you see, what has become of you" Xia Jian said, walked over, and helped Fang Fang wipe off a piece of black on his forehead.

Fang Fang's eyes widened, and he said mischievously: "No, I'll go to the town to call in a while"

"What? There is no telephone here, I thought it was washed away by the flood," Chen Jun looked puzzled.

Ouyang Hong smiled awkwardly, which was considered a default.

Chen Jun thought for a moment and said, "That's it! The danger here has been eliminated, I was supposed to evacuate in the afternoon, I will report immediately, before leaving, help you bring the telephone line over, the neighboring village has been connected, not very far from here"

"Thank you so much" Xia Jianyi was excited, grabbed Chen Jun's hand and shook it vigorously.

Fang Fang's face also bloomed with a beautiful smile.

The situation between the military and the people, Xia Jian really knew its meaning.
