Qin Xiaomin, who was frightened, was sent home early by Xia Jian, and the matter between them did not say that he was ugly.

The next day, the streets and alleys of the provincial capital spread that so-and-so official had fallen from power, and it was very evil anyway. Xia Jian only knew that Sun Yao was arrested in front of him, and he really didn't know why his mother was also arrested.

The strange thing is that Sun Yao was arrested, and Qin Xiaomin should be happy. But Xia Jian found that Qin Xiaomin was not only unhappy, but he didn't even call him again. Until Xiao Chenchen was discharged from the hospital, Xia Jian couldn't help but call Qin Xiaomin.

Qin Xiaomin told Xia Jian on the phone that she had taken a long leave and was not going to go to Pingdu again before the year. This surprised Xia Jian very much, but he didn't understand the reason.

On the twenty-second day of the lunar month, it will soon be a small year. Pingyang Town was rated as an advanced unit in the city, and Chen Jiang also awarded Xia Jian an advanced individual award for the first time, making Pingyang Town the standard of the whole city again and becoming a model for the towns and villages in the city to learn.

Xia Jian later learned from others that Sun Yao's father was arrested due to financial problems, which involved Sun Yao and his mother, which meant that the whole family went in. As the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, Li Lan was also affected by this incident due to inadequate supervision.

As for how big the impact was, Xia Jian didn't know, and he didn't dare to call Qin Xiaomin. However, judging from Qin Xiaomin's sick leave, the impact should be not small.

Xia Jian hadn't come to work for several days, and there were a lot of papers on his desk. Although a lot of work was done by Tong Jie for him when he was away, there were some jobs that Tong Jie couldn't replace him.

Just when Xia Jian was busy with these tasks, Secretary Wang of the town party committee walked in. The old man's cheeks were red, and as soon as he entered, he closed the door and sat down by the fire.

"How about Secretary Wang? How do you feel after this town-wide condolence? Xia Jian put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and asked with a smile.

Secretary Wang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "There is a long way to go, and the work on our shoulders is still not light. From the overall point of view of Pingyang Town, Pingyang Town has indeed made a lot of progress, and there are fewer and fewer villages that have been lifted out of poverty, but the situation is a bit serious in the villages that have not been lifted out of poverty, and some villagers can't even get through this year."

When Secretary Wang said this, he shook his head a little helplessly, and the expression on his face was very serious.

"Do you mean Plum Bay Village, or Shangxiagou?" Under Xia Jian's influence, these two villages were the poorest in Pingyang Township.

Secretary Wang sighed and said, "Not only these two villages, but even Hejiaping Village, the situation is also very serious. There are more than 1,000 people in the village, and about 200 people have a problem even eating."

"Is it so serious? Under my influence, the situation in Hejiaping Village is a little better," Xia Jian said, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that the situation was much more serious than he expected.

Secretary Wang glanced at Xia Jian and said: "It's about to be the New Year, if the problem of eating these people can't be solved, I'm afraid it's a problem."

"Bastard! What the hell is this He Shuicheng doing? Why didn't he report the situation in their village? Xia Jian couldn't help but scold.

Secretary Wang smiled and said: "We have all been deceived by He Shuicheng's appearance, he is really not a good thing"

Xia Jian couldn't sit still anymore, and it was going to be a small year after today. Rural people regard the Spring Festival as more important than anything else, and if these people can't even eat, this problem is really not a big problem.

"What is the situation in Liziwan Village and Shangxiagou Village?" Xia Jian couldn't help but ask again.

Secretary Wang sighed and said: "On the surface, these two villages are a little worse than Hejiaping Village, but I didn't expect that after investigation, these two villages add up to less than five households for the New Year, which is a bit of a problem."

"You have done a very good job this time, it seems that we should not only listen to these village cadres, but also have more in-depth understanding," Xia Jian said, letting out a long breath.

What can I do? Xia Jian kept walking around the office, and he really rarely did this.

Secretary Wang watched Xia Jian become like this, and quietly walked out of his office. Oh, yes! Pingyang Town won the first place in the city again, but behind the first place there is such a big mine, if this matter is disclosed, it will not become a fraud.

Secretary Wang found Tong Jie and Niu Li, as the saying goes, three stinkers are Zhuge Liang, and the four of them should have more ideas.

"Mayor Xia, don't worry, why don't you take some money from the leisure agriculture in our town?" Tong Jie whispered to Xia Jian.

Xia Jian glanced at Tong Jie and said, "No! It's tantamount to digging a hole for ourselves. There is no problem with embezzlement, but the question is where does the misappropriated money come from? Don't shoot yourself in the foot."

Xia Jian's words made these people fall into contemplation again. Everyone really can't think of any good way, but don't the more than 200 people ignore them?

Time is passing minute by minute, and it is time to get off work at noon again, but these problems in front of me have still not been solved.

"So be it! I went to the city and truthfully reported the situation in Pingyang Town to the leaders. Mayor Xia has just arrived, and I will be responsible for this matter," Secretary Wang suddenly stood up and said.

When Tong Jie heard this, she immediately objected: "No! What time is it today? Reporting it will not only not solve any problems, but will make the leaders feel uncomfortable. They feel uncomfortable, can we get better? The most important thing is that there is no problem that can be solved."

"So be it! Let's donate some money and come out! Although it can't solve the fundamental problem, at least it will give them food in front of them" Niu Li, who had not spoken, said this at this time.

Secretary Wang smiled and said: "A drop in the bucket, it can't solve the fundamental problem"

"Good! Then donate, Niu Li's idea is good. More than 200 people, each person eats one pound of noodles a day, and it is more than 200 pounds a day, which is more than 200 yuan. In January, it was more than 6,000 yuan. If they can donate 40,000 or 50,000 yuan, they will be able to last until next summer," Xia Jian suddenly laughed and said.

Secretary Wang smiled a little bitterly: "Forty or fifty thousand yuan? Where to donate? It's just a few of us, don't be funny. You've got money, I know, but what about the three of us? ”

"Of course we can't do it, call Zhao Hong, Ma Chuntao, and Song Fang from Huafeng Electric to my office. Call notification, be fast," Xia Jian said excitedly.

When Secretary Wang heard this, he suddenly realized, he patted his head and said, "What a good idea!" Only they can afford it, but it's hard to say if they can't."

"As long as they have someone willing to come, I can make them bleed. Mayor Tong and Niu Li will work hard again, the two of you will immediately go to these villages and implement these poor households who can't eat, and cause the booklet to me" Xia Jian said with a serious face.

This matter is urgent, after Niu Li called to inform Xia Jian of the few people she had just asked her to inform, she followed Tong Jie and walked quickly, and Xia Jian let out a long breath.

Secretary Wang glanced at Xia Jian and said, "Let's go to dinner!" If it's too late, there won't be any food in the cafeteria."

"Let's not talk about eating yet, I'm still a little worried, in the whole Pingyang Town, will there be such people who can't eat?" Xia Jian asked a little worriedly.

Secretary Wang thought for a while and said, "That's it! Leave this matter to me! I'll call village by village to ask, if it's not better, if there is, we'll solve it all at once this time."

"Good! After solving it this time, if similar problems are found later. The village chief can be held responsible, and if he is serious, he will be dismissed from his post and fined half a year's salary, which must be implemented," Xia Jian said a little angrily.

At this time, Niu Li and Tong Jie walked in with two lunch boxes. It turned out that after the two of them finished eating, they each gave Xia Jian and Secretary Wang another copy.

The meal was served to the office, which was exactly what Xia Jian needed.

Before two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Hong was the first to rush to Xia Jian's office, and then Ma Chuntao also came. Song Fang came the latest, but the time she came was also 2:35, which should be just the time for the town government to work.

Xia Jian went straight to the point and directly explained the purpose of letting the three of them come to the government. Secretary Wang on the side had an anxious look on his face, in case these three women all rejected Xia Jian's request, then this matter would be in big trouble.

"Our flower planting base has just made a profit, and we have repaid a loan at the end of the year, so we don't have much money. However, Mayor Xia raised this matter, and we can't help but respond, so we will donate 20,000 yuan from Zhangyang Village! Ma Chuntao was the first to speak, and when she finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Xia Jian's expression.

Xia Jian was secretly happy in his heart, he didn't expect Ma Chuntao to support his work so much. I'm afraid that no one will open up about something like this. And Ma Chuntao donated 20,000 yuan as soon as she opened her mouth, which was really a bit unexpected.

Zhao Hong thought for a moment and said, "Okay! Since some people can't eat, we can't patronize ourselves, so Xiping Village will donate 40,000 yuan! As soon as Zhao Hong exited, Secretary Wang's face bloomed.

Xia Jian's heart was very happy, but his expression was calm, and he couldn't see that he was happy at all from the surface. Song Fang hadn't said a word since she walked into Xia Jian's office, and she hadn't seen any expression on her face.

The office suddenly fell silent, and everyone was waiting for Song Fang to speak. After a long time, Song Fang smiled and said: "I am only a deputy director of Huafeng Electric Appliance Factory, but since Mayor Xia asked me to come, then I will make a statement, our Huafeng Electric Appliance Factory donated 50,000 yuan, and let people send the money over in the afternoon."

Such an ending is really unexpected. Xia Jian laughed and praised the three women a few words, to put it bluntly, they still supported Xia Jian's work. If they don't donate, Xia Jian won't have any way.

Ma Chuntao received a phone call and left in a hurry. When she left, she pulled Zhao Hong again, so that Song Fang was left. She seems to have come by car.
