11. Anonymous Telephone Calls

After the election of the secretary of the village party branch, Dong Datian hid at home for the first few days, except for drinking and smoking, he also slept. In fact, he drank sullen wine, and when he slept, he was lying down, and he couldn't sleep at all. After a few days at home, I felt that I was really panicked, so I carried the shovel to the field and sat on the sand hill of the orchard. Walk on the street when there are few people in the morning and evening, and occasionally meet a villager who can hide, but he can't hide and keep his head down and say little, he always can't untie the buckle in his happiness, and feels that he is too wretched.

More than ten days have passed, and Dong Datian has not entered the office of the village committee, and he feels that although he is still the director of the village committee, he is also a shadow puppet in a box, and his brilliance will not come up.

Li Minqiang knew that Dong Datian was in a mood, and he came home to find him twice, wanting to open his heart and talk about it from his heart, but he either hid or said that he was not in good health and needed to rest. In fact, he was waiting to see Li Minqiang's jokes and see how he cleaned up the mess in the village.

When Dong Datian heard that in only six or seven days, the tap water of each household would be connected, he couldn't figure it out, what trick did Li Minqiang use to make every household pay the money happily? Even the "old money fan" Xiao Zigui, the poor jingle Wang Wenchang, and the five guarantee households who have no financial resources have also been connected to running water. How did you get the money? Was it paid in advance by the village? But there is no money in the village! Is it a bank loan? But what did he use as collateral? You can't borrow money without collateral!

Dong Datian heard the broadcast of paying the electricity bill on the loudspeaker, and felt that Li Minqiang had the courage to dare to attack Mu Qinglin and Wang Wensi, this is a tiger's mouth to pull teeth, and there will be a face-to-face contest between them, but they didn't expect them to honestly pay the electricity bill.

The recontracting of the FRP factory was a matter that directly stabbed the hearts of Mu Qinglin's family, and it was a matter of breaking their family's financial route, and Li Minqiang solved it smoothly without making any noise; Wang Xueyong poisoned their pigs, not only did he not become an enemy, but he became a good buddy who would repay his kindness. He had to admire Li Minqiang, he felt that Li Minqiang was really a capable person. Thinking about it again, Li Minqiang is a capable person, doesn't it show his incompetence even more? He was jealous again. But it's not a way to stay like this!

On this day, Lin Caifeng was washing clothes in the yard, and Wang Wensi came in.

"Caifeng does the laundry?"

Lin Caifeng said while washing clothes: "Yo, 'two-sided light', aren't you sick and hospitalized, why are you coming to our house?" ”

"You're a person, your mouth is quite damaged, is your Datian here?"

"Our Datian is grandma who doesn't love my uncle and doesn't love it, so where can I go if I don't stay at home!"

Dong Datian was drinking in the house, and when he saw Wang Wensi coming in, he didn't raise his head and asked, "What's the matter with me?" ”

"There's nothing else, the secretary asked me to tell you, there will be a meeting in the afternoon, this is the content of the meeting." As he spoke, he put a document on the table in front of Dong Datian.

"That's it?"

"That's it. Drink it, I'm leaving. ”

Wang Wensi walked out of the gate, his neck crooked: "Phew, don't take yourself as a person, you didn't become a secretary and what kind of face did you make with me!" What a shitty you are! It's hard to say whether this village chief can be the chief. Hum! ”

After Wang Wensi left, Dong Datian took the materials and looked at them.

Lin Caifeng asked, "What is written on it?" ”

Dong Datian pursed his mouth and said, "Hmph, dream talk." ”

"Read it to me."

"I can read my dreams!" After saying that, he threw it aside.

"Look at you, what are you throwing it for, I still want to see it."

Dong Datian said angrily: "It's up to you to take it yourself!" ”

"Look at your virtue." Lin Caifeng turned around and left.

In the meeting room of the village council. Li Minqiang, Dong Datian, Wang Wensi, Xiao Yulin, Li Jianxin, all five branch members are here.

Li Minqiang was very happy and said: "Everyone is here, let's have a meeting, the content of the meeting has been sent to you in advance, this is some of my thoughts on future work, not necessarily comprehensive, the questions raised may not be accurate, I hope you can speak freely, don't have any worries, brainstorming." ”

Dong Datian said: "I read what you wrote, are you talking in your dreams?" Drilling wells and setting up factories all these things require money! Everyone knows that there is money and everything, and it is difficult to move an inch without money, where does this money come from? ”

Li Minqiang said: "We can also borrow from banks to attract investment. ”

Dong Datian glared at him and said, "Loan!" You are shaving your head and your head is hot, the bank is for your family, you can borrow if you want. Besides, where is the factory building for investment promotion? May I remind you that the central authorities have repeatedly issued orders and clearly stipulated that farmland should not be occupied. ”

Li Minqiang said: "I know that I can build a factory in a waste brick kiln, and there is not even grass growing in that place." ”

Dong Datian stood up and slapped the table and said, "I don't agree, what should I do with so many pig farmers in the brick factory?" Where are they going? This is to the detriment of the interests of the masses! Aren't you fooling around! After saying that, he lifted his ass and walked away.

Wang Wensi stood up angrily and said, "He didn't say anything anymore, he just kicked his nose in the face." He came to this set for the first time when he joined the branch committee, which didn't embarrass Minqiang. He doesn't agree to be a fart! Minqiang, ignore him, the mud can't support the wall, and he still holds a banquet without carrots. The matter of the resolution of our branch committee is still effective for him alone. ”

Li Jianxin said: "That's it." He can't let him mess with good things. ”

Xiao Yulin was about to speak, but Li Minqiang said: "That's all for today's meeting, I will study it in the future and adjourn the meeting." ”

Wang Wensi followed Li Minqiang into the office and said, "Minqiang, are you busy now?" ”

"What's wrong?" Li Minqiang asked.

"I want to talk to you."

"Oh, no matter how busy you are, sit down and talk."

"Hey, hey." Wang Wensi sat down on the chair next to him and continued, "Minqiang, since you took office, I have not been in a good mood. ”

Li Minqiang smiled and asked, "Why, are you not satisfied with my work?" ”

"Not really. I saw Dong Datian making trouble for you so unreasonably, and I wanted to fight for you, but I was afraid that it would affect the unity of the team, and in the end I would help you, so I felt very uncomfortable. ”

Li Minqiang smiled and said, "Maybe you're thinking too seriously, I don't think it's anything." ”

"You don't feel that way, it's because you're magnanimous, but I, the bystander, can see it clearly, clearly. This Dong Datian is bullying you to be honest, you can't blindly accommodate him, you must find a reason to rectify him. ”

"Uncle Datian is in a hurry, but I don't think others are bad, and if you run in and run in, it will get better slowly."

Wang Wensi smiled, stretched out his thumb and said: "Minqiang, you are really the prime minister's belly can support the boat, but I have to remind you that it is not good to be a village cadre without stubble." Okay, let's not talk about Daejeon, let's talk about me, I have to apologize to you. ”

"Oh, what are you sorry for?"

Wang Wensi said with a guilty expression: "I don't support you enough, from now on I must come up with more ideas for you and take more care for you, you won't have any ideas if I do this." ”

"Of course not, I'm glad you think so, thank you. Uncle Wen Si ...... "At this time, the phone rang.

Wang Wensi bowed his head and said, "Minqiang, I'm done, I'm leaving." ”

"Okay." Li Minqiang picked up the phone.

At night, Wang Wensi leaned on the sofa and thought: It seems that Dong Datian and Li Minqiang are already incompatible. Dong Datian is too self-conscious, he is simply a fool. What kind of character is Li Minqiang, the celebrity picked up by Secretary Tian, in terms of scheming, the three Dong Datian are not his own, no matter how powerful you Dong Datian is, he is just a second pole, he has no real skills in his stomach, he is not Li Minqiang's opponent at all, Dong Datian will inevitably be thrown off by Li Minqiang if he continues to make trouble like this. Wang Wensi thought again, why don't I add fuel to the fire? Right! He took out paper and pen from the drawer, lay down on the table to write, and shouted to his son, who was watching TV in the outhouse, "Learn literature!" You come here. ”

Wang Xuewen came to the inner room and asked, "Dad, what's the matter?" ”

"Do you see if there's any illegible words on it?" As he spoke, he handed what he had written to Wang Xuewen.

"What did you write?"

Wang Wensi smiled and said: "Tomorrow, you call Secretary Tian according to what I wrote, remember, don't call in our village, you have to go to the public phone in the town to call." ”

"Then why don't you fight?"

"Isn't it convenient for you to work in town. Don't be verbose, you can take a look first. ”

When Wang Xuewen saw that he was suing Dong Datian, he couldn't help but be stunned and said, "You want to sue Dong Datian!" How can you do this? ”

Wang Wensi smiled and said, "You don't understand this, this is called a discordant plan." Dong Datian has been on a par with Li Minqiang for a while, and I think he is looking for death with his eyes cupping. In addition, I also call it borrowing strength, maybe I can push him down. ”

"What are you pushing him for, don't you have an opinion on Li Minqiang?"

"I said why are you so stupid, you don't know what's going on inside, I can go up if he doesn't come down! Besides, this matter also brought Li Minqiang to blame, Dong Datian must think that Li Minqiang called to complain, and Li Minqiang was still in the dark. I let them pinch in a daze, and I don't know why I don't know why, and the final result is not to fulfill me, right? ”

Wang Xuewen whispered: "The mayor is his brother-in-law, eggs can't touch stones, arms can't twist thighs, what's the use of making this call?" ”

Wang Wensi was anxious, glared and said, "You know a fart!" If you are told to hit you, you will fight! Dad, I can't support you, what's the matter? ”

Wang Xuewen unhappily put the telephone script in his pocket and went to the outhouse to watch TV again.

The next day, Wang Xuewen came to the roadside store in the town: "Boss, I'll make a call." ”

The female boss came over and said, "Let's fight, hit five cents once." ”

Wang Xuewen handed over the money, took out what Wang Wensi wrote, and dialed the phone number of Tian Yongsheng's office: "Secretary Tian?" After hearing the other party's answer, Wang Xuewen read according to the manuscript: "Hello Dear Secretary Tian, I am an ordinary party member of Shagang Village, and now on behalf of the majority of party members in my village, I will reflect to you the problem of Dong Datian in my village. He didn't take Li Minqiang, secretary of the party branch of our village in his eyes at all, he drank and slept all day long, didn't do work, didn't participate in the meetings held by the party branch, and made trouble and demolished the stage everywhere. After reading it, he put down the phone and left.

Tian Yongsheng answered the phone and came to Chang Ziming's office angrily: "Old Chang, I heard a situation that Dong Datian not only did not participate in the branch committee and did not cooperate with Minqiang's work, but also made trouble everywhere. You go check it out, and if that's the case, then you'll have to talk to him. ”

Chang Ziming asked incomprehensibly: "If you don't cooperate, is it so serious?" ”

"People who reported the situation said that he was a 'village tyrant'! It's 'tolerable or unbearable'! ”

"This Dong Datian, I'll go right away."

Chang Ziming was so angry that he hurriedly pedaled his bicycle out of the gate of the town government and ran to the road leading to Shagang Village. Dong Datian didn't become a secretary and had emotions in his heart, he expected it, but he didn't expect it to develop to the point of "tolerable and unbearable". The secretary didn't become the secretary, who is to blame? Isn't it your own fault? You don't admit that your level is low, but you don't work, and you make trouble everywhere, doesn't this prove that your quality is low? I have repeatedly said good things for you at the party committee, but you have ...... Ahem, where do you tell me to put this face? Dong Datian, why are you so shameless!

Lin Caifeng was cleaning up the yard, and when she saw Chang Ziming pushing her bicycle into the yard, she hurriedly greeted her: "Brother-in-law is here!" ”

"Is Ota at home?"

"Yes."

Lin Caifeng shouted into the house: "Datian, brother-in-law is here!" ”

Chang Ziming entered the house and saw that Dong Datian was really sleeping, and he was sitting on the table by the kang angrily.

Dong Datian rubbed his eyes and said to Lin Caifeng: "What are you still doing standing, hurry up and make tea!" ”

Chang Ziming waved his hand and said to Lin Caifeng: "Don't be busy, you go out first." ”

Lin Caifeng was still busy making tea for Chang Ziming.

Chang Ziming was anxious: "Didn't I say it, you go out for a while, and I will talk to him on behalf of the town government." ”

"Let's talk, then." Lin Caifeng put the brewed tea in front of Chang Ziming and went out.

Chang Ziming said angrily: "Dong Datian, I didn't expect your quality to be so low!" If you want to be a secretary, but people don't vote for you, it means that everyone's eyes are bright, and they have seen that your level is low and your quality is poor, and you can't run forward with everyone. Not only do you not seriously examine yourself and find out your own problems, but you lie at home and sleep a lot, you don't count if you don't work, and you also tear down the people's strong platform, do you still look like a Communist Party member? I actively recommend you in front of everyone, aren't you dishonoring me by doing so? ”

"Then I'm ......"

"Don't let me, give me a happy word, do you still want to do it as a village director?"

"Why can't I do it?"

"Don't pretend to be confused! If you don't go to the office and sleep at home during the day, do you still want to be the village director? People say you're a 'village tyrant'! ”

Dong Datian looked aggrieved and said, "I'm not feeling well, why don't you lie at home for a while?" Lie down for a while, and you will become a 'village tyrant'. ”

"Let me tell you Dong Datian, it was Secretary Tian who asked me to come to you, let me ask you again, do you still want to do it?"

"What's wrong with me that I can't do it?"

"What's wrong! You don't cooperate with Minqiang's work, and you also dismantle the stage. As a village director and deputy secretary of the branch, what do you want to do if you don't participate in the branch committee? ”

"Minqiang told you that, right?"

"Who you care! Is there such a thing? ”

Dong Datian lowered his head and didn't say anything, Chang Ziming stood up and pointed at him and said, "Dong Datian, I don't think you understand anything!" Do so, and I can tell you, even though I am your brother-in-law, I will not be able to protect you if I continue like this. Why don't you make a face like this! ”

"Brother-in-law, where am I ......?"

"Don't shout, you put me in, do you know?" Turn around and walk out.

Lin Caifeng, who was hiding in the yard, hurriedly said, "Brother-in-law, you can leave now, let's leave after lunch." ”

Chang Ziming waved his hand angrily and said, "Don't talk about those useless things." Pushing the bike and walking away in a huff.

Lin Caifeng hurriedly ran into the house and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"What's the matter, Li Minqiang sued me."

"Ahh Is it possible to be the village director? Look at what you're messing with. ”

Dong Datian tilted his head and lowered his head without squeaking.

Lin Caifeng said angrily to Dong Datian: "I don't think you're still making trouble, you have a big tail wolf with a finch and bones, so let's clamp your tail." ”

Dong Datian glared and said, "Who are you talking about?" Get out of the way and go. ”

Lin Caifeng muttered and went out, Dong Datian lay on the kang again, and he couldn't sleep anymore.

Almost at the same time as Chang Ziming was talking to Dong Datian, the phone in Li Minqiang's office rang: "Hey, who, ah, Secretary Tian, what instructions do you have?" ”

"Where did you get so many instructions. Let me ask, how is the cooperation between you and Comrade Daejeon? ”

"There is no problem with the cooperation between me and Director Dong."

"Let me be clear, I don't mean the cooperation between you and Comrade Daejeon, I mean the cooperation between Daejeon and you."

"It's no problem for Director Dong to cooperate with me, although Director Dong has a little problem, but his character is not bad, we will cooperate very well."

"Minqiang, I hope you can tell the truth."

"Secretary Tian, there is really nothing between me and Director Dong, although there is a little friction at work, this is also normal."

"It's good for you to be generous. Well, we'll talk about that later. Nothing else, I'll contact you again if there's anything. After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Li Minqiang thought to himself, why did Secretary Tian ask me about the cooperation between me and Uncle Datian, did he hear something?

Tian Yongsheng also thought deeply, who made this call? Why make such a call?

As soon as Li Minqiang entered the office from outside, Dong Datian came in listlessly with his head drooping.

Li Minqiang saw that Dong Datian was in a very bad mood, so he asked, "Uncle Tian, what's wrong with you?" ”

Dong Datian sat on a chair and said, "Minqiang, I want to talk to you." ”

Li Minqiang smiled and said, "Okay! ”

"I'm here to review."

"Review! Why? ”

"Since you took office, I have not cooperated enough with your work, although there are some objective reasons, but the responsibility should still be said to be me, I hope you can understand, there are some things you take to heart."

"Uncle Datian, I am very grateful to you for being like this. To be honest, I don't know the bottom of my heart, and I really need your help with me. ”

"I don't have much work capacity, and I can't help you much. But talk about cooperating with your work. It should be said that it is not a big problem. Minqiang, you can rest assured at this point. ”

"Alright, let's turn the page."

"Good. Then I'll go back. ”

"Hmm." Li Minqiang smiled with satisfaction.
