Chapter 90: Survive the flood disaster with the villagers
Happy Town is about to have a week of heavy rain, and the news spreads quickly.
Zhou Peng, as the secretary, naturally had to express himself.
He deliberately made a phone call to Lin Tao, saying that he would also go to Niuwei Village in person like Lin Tao to participate in the deployment of flood control with the villagers.
He knew very well that Lin Tao would definitely refuse, and his move was just for show.
This kind of human spirit has always been good at acting.
To be honest, if you want to say that the actor is definitely not in the film and television industry, but in the officialdom.
Acting in officialdom is a must-have skill, and if you don't have this skill, it will be difficult for you to have a chance to be promoted.
In fact, as Zhou Peng expected, Lin Tao refused to come over in person.
The reason is that it is impossible for Happy Town to be without a leading squad leader, after all, there are still many things to deal with. Therefore, Lin Tao is here alone, and it is impossible for Zhou Peng, as a secretary, to leave his job for so long. As for coming, it was also the other deputy mayors who came.
And the other deputy mayors are very shrewd, knowing that if they call Lin Tao and say that they want to come, they will probably have to really pass.
So, none of them called.
Only Wu Yihan, the executive deputy mayor, didn't make a phone call, and after finishing his own business, he drove directly to find Lin Tao.
"Yihan, just me and Li Chun, the director of the Safety Supervision Office, are here here, you girl should go back and deal with your affairs." Lin Tao said.
"What's wrong with the girl? Women half the sky. What you men can do, so can we. And as the executive deputy mayor, I also have the responsibility to protect the safety of the villagers. ”
Wu Yihan insisted on staying, and Lin Tao followed her wishes.
At present, the most crucial thing is to do a good job in making arrangements for flood control.
Through everyone's efforts, all flood prevention work has finally been done.
Fortunately, they were fast enough, and as soon as they did everything, it began to rain.
"Oh no, Xie Zhishu, Ma Sanmei went to the mountain to pull their cattle, and they haven't come down the mountain yet."
Just when everyone was relieved, suddenly a villager ran over and reported in a panic.
"What! There is such a thing, how did this Ma Sanmei do it? Didn't you tell her not to put the cow on the mountain today? How dangerous it would be if a heavy rain caused a landslide. ”
Xie Qiang couldn't help but get anxious.
"Xie Zhishu, let's do it, I'll go with you separately to find this third sister Ma. Be sure to find her before there is a landslide. Lin Tao commanded.
"Mayor Lin, you've been busy all day, and now it's getting dark, so I'd better go with the other villagers to find it." Xie Qiang said.
"Yes! Mayor Lin, we are all grateful for your kindness to us. You can rest here, and we'll send a few people to look for it. ”
"Yes, we'll leave the job of finding someone to us. Mayor Lin, you are a foreigner, and you are not familiar with the situation on the mountain. ”
"Mayor Lin broke our hearts, and we received this love. Let's go if you find Ma Sanmei. Villagers, let's not delay, divide into three groups and go up the mountain from different directions. Whoever finds Ma Sanmei will call to inform him. ”
……
The other villagers also expressed their thoughts.
This is the unpretentious peasant, as long as you are genuinely good to him, they can feel it.
"Mayor Lin, I think what the villagers said has a point. We were really unfamiliar with the situation on the mountain, and it was going to get dark soon. If you follow along, it will only increase the risk. Wu Yihan on the side also suggested.
"Okay, I'll listen to you this time. You must also pay attention to safety when you go up the mountain. Lin Tao thought about it for a while, and finally agreed to their suggestion.
So, Xie Qiang immediately divided the number of people into three groups, each group had a captain, and they went up the mountain from different directions to find Ma Sanmei.
Fortunately, an hour later, the good news came that the people in the second group had found Ma Sanmei and took Ma Sanmei and Niu down the mountain together.
Hearing the news, Lin Tao's hanging heart finally relaxed.
For the next three days, Lin Tao and Wu Yihan spent the next three days in Niuwei Village.
Three days of torrential rain caused another flood in Niuwei Village.
Due to Lin Tao's deployment in advance, fortunately, none of the villagers have anything to do at present.
However, it rained heavily for three consecutive days, and it was obviously impossible to relieve the flood hazard for a while.
"Mayor Lin, what should I do now? Even if the rain stops, it is estimated that the flood will not recede for a while. Wu Yihan asked.
"Now is not the time to relax, according to the comrades of the meteorological station, this rain has a one-week cycle, and although it has stopped after three days, no one dares to guarantee whether it will continue tomorrow. So we need to make sure that the flood is actually receding before we can let our guard down. Lin Tao said.
"Well, what you say is reasonable, then we'll stay here for two more days to see."
"I don't care, it's just that you, who grew up in the city, are afraid that you are not used to living in Oxwei Village."
"According to what you said, although I grew up in the city, I went to the army when I was in college, so I have experienced all kinds of harsh conditions. And I really like the country life, how quiet it is at night. Wu Yihan said.
"As long as you can live in the habit, I'm worried that you'll lose sleep."
"Don't worry, I'm not that pretentious."
Speaking of this, Wu Yihan was full of pride in his heart. Compared with other second-generation officials, she has the experience of being a soldier, so she has more rich life experience.
Soon, another three days passed, which meant that they had spent six days in Ushio Village.
In fact, if they wanted to, they couldn't, because the rain had already overflowed the bridge. This is the inconvenience of Ushimi Village, once it rains, the villagers can only stay in the village.
This also made Lin Tao more determined to build a safe and reliable bridge for them.
"Mayor Lin, Executive Director Wu, thank you for your love for our Niuwei Village. We thank you. ”
On the occasion of leaving, Xie Qiang knelt down on behalf of Niuwei Village to express his gratitude.
The villagers who followed behind also knelt down to thank them.
Wu Yihan felt the recognition from the people for the first time, and she was moved and didn't know what to say.
Lin Tao, on the other hand, has already experienced this feeling of being recognized. He immediately helped Xie Qiang and the others up, and then said, "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, don't do this." Actually, I didn't do anything special, and what I'm doing now is what I should do as a government officer, so you don't have to thank me. You really have to thank me, but wait until I actually build a safe and secure bridge. ”
