Lu Jiang's words came from the heart, and there was absolutely no falsehood.

Some of the old people had already begun to cry.

After all their hard work, there is only such a house left, and if the house is gone, they really have no hope.

"Secretary Lu, we believe in you."

The old man who led Lu Jiang into the village was the first to stand up and support Lu Jiang.

He stepped forward to introduce himself, "Secretary Lu, my name is Huang Jun, and I am the village chief of Xiaohuang Village, and I will settle everyone down." ”

Lu Jiang remembered him, it was this old man who risked his life to walk the mountain road for help last night.

If he hadn't sent the news out in time, the entire people of Xiaohuang Village would have ceased to exist.

"Old village chief, I remember you, aren't you afraid of falling down when you walk alone on the mountain road?"

Huang Jun sighed, and was a little afraid, "I'm afraid, how can I not be afraid, but if I don't come out, what will the villagers do?" ”

"I am the village head, so I have to be responsible for them, so as to live up to the trust that the country has placed in me."

Lu Jiang listened and nodded again and again, a village official far away in a small border town.

It's really rare to have such an awareness.

"Yes, you are doing the right thing, and you need people like you to be officials in order to benefit the people."

As soon as the words fell, warm applause rang out all around.

This applause is a heartfelt thank you to them.

Lu Jiang bowed to repay the enthusiasm of the villagers, and then said to them, "During this time, everyone can live here with peace of mind, and you can go back when the road is repaired, I will go back to the town to arrange the road repair first, don't worry, soon, believe me." ”

After yesterday's incident, everyone has a lot of trust in Lu Jiang.

didn't question anything, after arranging everyone, Lu Jiang took Fang Wei and prepared to go back to the town.

"Where's Mayor Tang?"

Fang Wei's face was strange, "He has already left, and the village party secretary of Donghe Village has also left, so there are only the two of us left." ”

Standing at the entrance of the village, there is no car.

Only the two of them were standing, very gloomy.

Lu Jiang knew that this was Tang Qiang's dismount for himself.

Although he didn't dare to do anything to Lu Jiang on the surface, the small means in secret were enough for people to drink a pot.

Fang Wei said angrily, "What now?" There are no cars in the village at all, are we going to go to town? I just looked at the journey, and it's a three-hour car ride. ”

If you walk, I'm afraid you won't be able to get there after dark.

Lu Jiang pondered and didn't speak, Fang Wei said, "Otherwise, let Tang Qiang send someone to pick you up." ”

Lu Jiang shook his head, "It's not proper, if you send someone to pick it up, it will take at least six hours to go back and forth, and these six hours are enough for him to do a lot of things." ”

"Let's go back to the village and see if we have a car."

Lu Jiang took Fang Wei and walked towards the village, but a young man driving a truck came to him.

He was happy in his heart, he was finally able to go, and Lu Jiang stretched out his hand to stop the truck.

When the car stopped, a young man in his twenties leaned out of the driver's seat.

With a simple face and clear eyes, "What's the matter?" ”

"We are ......"

"We're going to town, can you take us there, we'll pay your fare."

Fang Wei was about to speak, but was stopped by Lu Jiang.

He stopped her from revealing the identities of the two of them, just to secretly get more information.

Although Lotus Township is very chaotic, Lu Jiang feels that it is definitely not so simple.

The unscrupulousness of the countryside below is mostly due to the fact that there is an umbrella above.

If they had directly identified themselves, the young man would have taken a lot of care into account.

And they will not hear the truth.

Fang Wei was young and didn't know these twists and turns.

When the young man heard this, he was instantly happy, originally he was going to the town to deliver goods.

Why not make an extra income now?

"Come up, fifteen for one and thirty for two."

This price is not expensive, after all, the journey is three hours, and Lu Jiang happily paid for him.

"Thank you very much."

After getting in the car, the young man was very talkative, and he didn't need Lu Jiang to ask anything.

He himself said, "You're back to visit your family, aren't you?" It was really unfortunate to encounter a landslide. ”

"If it had been before, we still had a lot of cars here, how could I make money."

Lu Jiang smiled at him, "Yes, little brother, what are you doing in town?" ”

The young man was not guarded at all, and said directly, "I am going to the town to buy rice noodles, and then sell them in various villages, recently there are more people in our village, I am afraid that there is a lot of rice, I have to hurry up, otherwise there will be no more." ”

"How could it be gone?"

Lu Jiang frowned, this Lotus Township is a big grain township, and you can do without anything.

How can there be no rice noodles?

The young man looked at him with disdain, "You haven't been back in years, have you?" ”

Lu Jiang said, "Yes? I don't know when I'll be able to come back after I leave this time. ”

He said this to make young people lower their guard.

Even if you tell him about it, it's nothing, after all, he won't be coming back.

The young man was also distressed, and when he finally had someone to speak, he opened the conversation.

"You don't know, the grain we have here has been purchased by the Shengshi Group, and if you want to buy it, you can only buy it in their store, but the price is more than twice as expensive, and the old people in the village will not buy online, so they can only spend money in vain."

Lu Jiang asked, "Then how can you buy it?" ”

The young man's eyebrows were raised, and he was very stinky, "The people below us also have countermeasures for the people below." ”

"The price of the grain purchased by Shengshi is very low, so I will negotiate with the rice farmers at a higher price than them, and then I can buy the rice, and then sell it to the people at the normal price, so that the rice farmers and I can make money, and the people can save money."

"But this matter has to be hidden, if we find out, we'll all be finished."

Lu Jiang continued to ask what was the end, but the young man refused to say anything.

Three hours later, the two of them got on and off in town.

Fang Wei was half angry, "How can that Shengshi Group be like this?" This is completely inconsistent with the regulations of the Price Authority. ”

Lu Jiang didn't have any expression, he had long expected that this place would not be very clean.

But I don't want to be so dark, "The sky is high here, the emperor is far away, and the previous secretaries of the town party committee who came here to transform are all dead and unknown, so they are even more arrogant now." ”

Fang Wei shrunk her shoulders in fear, she thought that this place was just for officials to protect each other.

Who knew that he would kill for money, "Ah, it's so terrible, so what should you do?" ”

Lu Jiang shrugged indifferently, "It's okay, I'm alone, if I die, I'll die, but I must not let go of this group of beasts before the fourth." ”

Fang Wei looked at his back, her eyes were slightly red, and she secretly made up her mind......

When they arrived at the town hall, it was almost twelve o'clock.

Lu Jiang walked in front and did not notice the abnormality of the person behind him.

Even if he found out, he didn't have anything to do, and this is what everyone has to go through.

This world is so cruel.
