Chapter 22: Return to South Bay

Euphemistically rejected Liu Manhui's idea of driving him to Nanwan Village, Xu Tao jumped on the minibus to the village, the car drove slowly on the country road, watching the farmland on both sides flashing through the car window, Xu Tao's thoughts drifted far away.

"Development .. Development .."

If Nanwan Village was able to find out what kind of development direction it had before, that is, to follow Beigou Village to dig sand and sell it for money, then as this turmoil passed, this road was completely blocked.

In Jincheng Township, the largest industry is the vegetable base.

100,000 dollars.. It is obviously an unrealistic idea to let Nanwan Village replicate such an industry as a vegetable base, Xu Tao thought about it and decided to return to Nanwan Village first.

The last time I was here was too short and I didn't know enough about Nanwan Village, so making any decision rashly in this situation is extremely risky.

Money, it doesn't seem like much.

In fact, it is an important breakthrough for Xu Tao's next work.

With the dust kicked up by the wheels, the minibus slowly stopped at the entrance of Nanwan Village, and then there was a road of nearly two or three kilometers that Xu Tao needed to walk to the village by himself.

It's just that Xu Tao hasn't gone far yet.

I met an acquaintance...

Bai Fei jumped off the electric tricycle quickly, grabbed Xu Tao's arm, and said with some excitement: "Ah! Secretary Xu, I thought you would never have a chance to come back! I didn't expect you to forget our Nanwan Village! It's good to be back, it's good to be back! You don't know, our village chief Gao has been talking about you since the last time you went back to the township! ”

Today's Bai Fei is dressed very well-looking, with a small floral daisy dress and a pair of simple black and white canvas shoes, which is not gorgeous, but exudes a youthful atmosphere everywhere.

Especially at this moment, Bai Fei's whole person is clinging to Xu Tao's arm.

It doesn't look like a big scale, but it's amazing in terms of elasticity, and if you look at the size of the actual feeling, even if it's not spectacular, you can judge it as a good one.

"You're saying this like what's wrong with me!"

Bai Fei didn't speak, her eyes were as beautiful as a crescent moon, she just smiled vigorously: "Let's go, Secretary Xu, get in the car!" I'll take you on a gallop! ”

"Okay!"

Ma Li climbed into the car, put the schoolbag he was carrying in the body of the electric tricycle, Bai Fei started, twisted the handle to accelerate in one go: "I always feel better than driving in the back bucket, but today's car bucket is filled with all the dishes to be used in the village primary school this week, otherwise I can drive faster!" ”

In the small electric tricycle, Xu Tao didn't expect to see the gentle Bai Fei like this, the speed is fast, the driving skills are first-class, and the laughter of the two people in the wind spreads far away.

Many villagers in Nanwan Village, who were working in the farmland, couldn't help but raise their heads and saw that it was Bai Fei and Xu Tao, but they just smiled and continued to work on farming.

"Village Chief! Chief! Look who I brought you back! ”

A skillful turn, probably because there is still Xu Tao's "weight" in the body today, it is not as elegant as usual.

Hearing Bai Fei's voice, Gao Xiaoquan's laughter also came from the office: "Teacher Bai is back!" Who did you bring back? If only you could bring a man who could marry you... Ay! ”

"Secretary Xu?" As soon as he walked out of the door, Gao Xiaoquan's eyes lit up.

Gao Xiaoquan hurriedly walked over, tightly held the hand of Xu Tao, who had just jumped out of the car, and couldn't stop muttering: "I said that Teacher Bai could bring back a man, but I didn't expect to bring back not only a man, but also our secretary Xu of Nanwan Village!" ”

"I agree to this marriage! Hahaha! ”

Gao Xiaoquan's joke made Bai Fei's two faces on the side instantly turn red, and the tone of his speech unconsciously lowered by three points, lowered his head, twisted the little white jade-like hand back and forth, and said in his mouth: "Village chief!" Why are you kidding me again~"

"Village Chief Gao! I am back! Xu Tao responded.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back.. Let's go into the house and say! ”

I haven't seen each other for a few days, Gao Xiaoquan has no place to share his words, so he pulls Xu Tao and wants to go to the office.

"Wait, wait, wait! Village Chief Gao, my bag is still in the car! ”

"Hey! Anyway, you still have to go back to the village in the end, so... Teacher Bai, you can help and take Secretary Xu's bag back to the village school! ”

Xu Tao does not have a stable residence in Nanwan Village, they all live in the school like Bai Fei, and a few years ago, they allocated money to connect heating pipes to every classroom and office in the village elementary school, and just burn the boiler and add coal to it.

So even in winter, it's not too cold.

"That.. It's going to trouble Mr. Bai.."

"No trouble!"

Bai Feixiao's face was ruddy, listening to the words, she hurriedly jumped back onto the electric tricycle, and turned around again and drove towards the village school that was only separated by a wall.

Gao Xiaoquan patted Xu Tao's shoulder and said with a smile: "Go!" ”

Gao Donglin was the only one in the office, and he was also an acquaintance, and when he saw Xu Tao coming in with Gao Xiaoquan, he suddenly had a surprised smile on his face: "Secretary Xu is back!" ”

"I'm back."

"It's good to be back! You don't know, in the past few days when you are away, Uncle Gao has been talking to you in the office every day, saying that the sand mining in Beigou Village has been smashed and investigated, why hasn't Secretary Xu in our village come back yet! I'm afraid something will happen to you, if I hadn't stopped you... It is estimated that Uncle Gao will have to drive three wheels to the township to find you. ”

"Hahaha! Yes! For the first time, I realized how important I was! ”

Gao Xiaoquan scolded Gao Donglin with a smile: "Do your job!" You don't know the yield of this year's autumn harvest in our village, what are you talking to me here? ”

"Hey, hey!" Scratching his head, Gao Donglin continued to work.

Gao Xiaoquan pulled Xu Tao to sit down, poured a glass of water for Xu Tao and put it on the table, and then said: "This time Beigou Village is considered to have bad luck!" Secretary Xiao Xu.. You don't know, the strength of the inspection team is too great! It is comparable to the momentum of thunder, I heard that the convoy just left, and the next day, the province, city, and county, the cars kept coming! ”

"Equipment, river sand, all confiscated, before Ma Jinhu engaged in a sand mining village-run enterprise, all of them were confiscated, not to mention, and a sky-high fine of five million was given! Obediently... Five million, I have never seen so much money in my life, I heard that the three brothers of the Ma family are about to lift the money to make up the money! ”

Xu Tao asked: "Is the fine paid by the three brothers of the Ma family?" ”

"No! Speaking of this, the three brothers of the Ma family are quite authentic this time, it stands to reason that once there is a problem with this village-run enterprise, it will be a matter of the entire village... Five million can make Beigou Village unable to raise its head for many years, but this time the three brothers handed over the money without saying a word."

Xu Tao nodded, compared to the harmfulness and seriousness of this matter itself, the fine of five million is actually nothing... In recent years, the price of river sand in the construction market has been rising, and the three brothers of the Ma family may have made more than five million money in this sand quarry.

But thinking of the pair of invisible hands behind the sand quarry, you and I will take a handful of what is left behind and use it on the heads of all the villagers in Beigou Village, so that five million is indeed not a small amount.

"And then?"

Then Ma Jinhu turned himself in! Immediately afterwards, the other two brothers of the Ma family were also arrested, but I heard that Ma Jinhu confessed to all the charges after entering, so the other two were detained for a few days, and they were finally released..."

It can still be released.. Xu Tao estimated that it should be inseparable from the five million that he handed over, Xu Tao shook his head and said: "Development has to be down-to-earth and solid. Otherwise, it will be a castle in the air and a big dream at any time. ”

"That's right! This year, according to the rules, the land in Hewan was planted in Beigou Village, but now that the sand quarry is gone, I heard that the young people in their village are not ready to stay at home, and they are all clamoring to go out to work, and now Beigou will be the same as our Nanwan..."
