"Xie Zhishu, you go and ask Old Man Liu how the situation is." Lin Tao commanded.

Xie Qiang nodded, and came to Old Man Liu's side. Then he squatted down and asked with concern: "Old man Liu, this is Lin Tao, the mayor of Xingfu Town, and the other is Wu Yihan, the executive deputy mayor. They're coming to visit you, are you alright? What are the grievances to tell them? ”

"Yes, Uncle Liu, you are so dignified, why do you want to commit suicide?"

Lin Tao also asked him.

"If you can't live, who wants to kill yourself? Who doesn't know how good it is to be alive. ”

"That's it, Xie Zhishu, you let the onlookers disperse first, and take Uncle Liu to the village committee later, I want to talk to him alone."

Lin Tao originally wanted to talk to Old Man Liu about the specific situation, but considering that there were too many people, he adopted this strategy.

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

After Xie Qiang replied, he immediately evacuated the crowd of onlookers. Then he took Old Man Liu back to the village committee together.

This is the first time that Lin Tao and Wu Yihan have come to the village committee of Niuwei Village since they took office in Xingfu Town.

It is said that it is a village committee, but it is actually similar to an ordinary residential building, which shows that the economy here is really backward.

"Mayor Lin, Executive Director Wu, I'm really embarrassed. The conditions of our village committee are poor, so we can only give you some white meetings. Xie Qiang said enthusiastically.

"It's okay, we just like to drink plain water. I'll talk to Uncle Liu first, and the captains of those teams will come over in a while, and you will call me over for a meeting. ”

"Okay, I'll let you know in a moment."

After speaking, Xie Qiang walked out of the room.

The reason why Lin Tao euphemistically supported Xie Qiang, the secretary of the village committee, was because he was worried about Old Man Liu's subsistence allowance problem, and the village committee of Niuwei Village was also involved. So he needs to talk to Old Man Liu alone.

"Uncle Liu, there are no outsiders now, you say, why do you want to commit suicide? Why can't you live? Lin Tao asked directly.

"Mayor Lin, can you really call the shots for me?" Old man Liu looked at him with a serious face.

"Of course, as long as it is a righteous matter, even if it is to lose my official position, I will make decisions for you." Lin Tao gave him an affirmative answer.

"Well, I'll just say, I'm a five-guarantee household, that is, a person who doesn't have a wife and no sons and daughters, and according to my conditions, I can apply for the subsistence allowance and the elderly money. But every time, I was stuck by the people from your civil affairs office. Now my poultry was ready to be sold, but suddenly I got sick and died. God is like this to me, what is the point of my life. ”

After speaking, Old Man Liu couldn't help but touch the tears in the corners of his eyes.

Lin Tao was very touched.

Men have tears and don't flick.

If it weren't for the point of despair, maybe Old Man Liu wouldn't have shed tears easily.

"Uncle Liu, I'm sorry, it's our comrades who are not doing things well, so you didn't get the benefits you deserved. In this way, when I go back, I will find out about it, and try my best to help you apply for the basic welfare issues of the country such as the subsistence allowance and the elderly. Lin Tao said.

"Thank you, Mayor Lin, but no. After such a fuss today, I have also thought about it. Keep living, it's a big deal to pick up the rags and live. ”

"No, one can't be so negative. If you are dozens of years old, you should know that we have to fight for our own rights and interests. Our country will have welfare care for low-income people, plus you are an elderly person, and you also meet the application criteria for elderly money. It's your welfare, so why would you give it up? Lin Tao persuaded.

"Mayor Lin, I can see that you are a good person. But when you apply for something four or five times without results, will you still have the confidence to apply? ”

Old man Liu's words instantly stopped Lin Tao.

He understood that it must have been many fruitless applications, so Old Man Liu had a desperate mentality.

He had to ask about this matter even more, so that he could think about how to solve it when he went back.

"Uncle Liu, please believe me and tell me all the obstacles you encounter in your application. I'll be better able to help you solve the problem when I get back. Aren't you afraid of death? So what are you afraid of? Lin Tao said.

"Okay, then I'll tell you. The reason why I couldn't apply was because the place was occupied by Wang Scar from the next village. ”

"King Scar? Who is this? ”

"Wang Scar's real name is Wang Feng, because he was scarred on his face by a cement knife when he was doing infrastructure construction in the early years, so he has always been called Wang Scar. Over the years, he has relied on contracting projects, built a three-story small western-style building, not to mention, and bought a small car. Old man Liu replied.

"What! Such a person can also get a subsistence allowance? Isn't this nonsense? Isn't that guilty? ”

Lin Tao immediately felt angry.

"But it's not, there's no way, who let him have a cousin who is the director of the Civil Affairs Office. Therefore, there is no one in the DPRK and China, so we ordinary people don't have to think about these benefits. Anyway, I don't have any more hopes. ”

After speaking, Old Man Liu looked desperate again.

"Uncle Liu, don't worry, I will definitely give you justice in this matter."

Lin Tao promised with a serious face.

Whether it is in his previous life or after being reborn, what Lin Tao hates most is this kind of person who relies on relationships to seize the subsistence allowance.

The little money from the subsistence allowance is nothing to these rich people. Maybe they usually eat and drink more than this money, and they are insatiable to grab it.

As everyone knows, this money is like a lifesaver for the poor.

"Thank you, Mayor Lin, it is said that this cousin of Wang Scar still has a certain relationship in the county, so you have to be careful." Old man Liu kindly reminded.

"Don't worry, whether he is in the county or in the city, I have to cancel Wang Scar's subsistence allowance. In addition, you submit a new application to the village committee, and you will submit it shortly. When the time comes, I will personally sign it for you. Lin Tao said.

"Thank you, Mayor Lin, good man, you are really a good person."

Old man Liu immediately knelt down and thanked Lin Tao.

Lin Tao immediately helped him up and said, "Uncle Liu, don't do this. The more you do that, the more embarrassed I become. This matter is the work of our happy town government, and it is our work that we have not been able to enjoy the benefits of the national subsistence allowance before. It's that we have to apologize to you. ”

"Mayor Lin, the captains of the other squads are here, when do you think you can go over here?"

At this time, Xie Qiang walked in and reported.

"Xie Zhishu, it's just right that you're here. After a while, Uncle Liu will be asked to fill out a new application for subsistence allowance and an application for the elderly's money. After your village committee signed and sealed, I took it directly back to the town. ”
