Chapter 611: My Cousin's Work
Although Wang Jianhua repeatedly said that he would arrange a private plane to send Zhang Weidong to Lingnan Province, Zhang Weidong still rejected his kindness in the end. It's not that Zhang Weidong is hypocritical, but I just don't think there's any need to be so exaggerated and wasteful. To a certain extent, although Zhang Weidong has slowly adapted to his other noble identity, he is still a little bit of a citizen in essence.
Zhang Weidong's plane arrived in Lingzhou City, the capital city of Lingnan Province, at around 12 o'clock. There is a train to Changhai County in Lingzhou City, but it is the annual return to Gao Cháo for the New Year, and the train ticket has already reached the extent that it is difficult to find a ticket, so Zhang Weidong got off the plane and went straight to the taxi stop with his suitcase, and then directly chartered a car to Changhai County.
Lingnan Province is a strong coastal province with a strong economy, and it is also one of the most influential provinces in China. The climate in Lingnan Province is warmer than that of Nannan Province, which is somewhat close to Hong Kong, and although it is winter, it will not let you feel cold.
The car is driving on the highway, the sun is shining overhead, and there are lush trees everywhere on both sides of the highway, especially Changhai County is a mountainous area.
Zhang Weidong came to Changhai County several times when he was young, and although he was not comfortable at his grandfather's house, he was very satisfied with the mountains and rivers here. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the blue clouds are blue, the climate is humid and warm, but it is a place that makes people feel comfortable and leisurely.
Sitting in the car, looking out the window at the strange and somewhat familiar green hills, thinking that he hadn't been to his grandfather's house for more than ten years, Zhang Weidong couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and suddenly missed his grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, etc. No matter how cold he was to his father-in-law when he was young, but Bi Jing has a blood relationship there, no matter how weak the family affection is that blood is thicker than water, how can he completely ignore it?
It's a pity that grandpa and grandma are no longer there, otherwise they can live a long life with their current ability, Zhang Weidong looked out the window, but the kind smile of his grandfather and grandmother brushed in his mind.
As Zhang Weidong said, what his grandfather and grandmother really have opinions about is his father, but they love Zhang Weidong, a grandson who is far away in his province. It's just that the son's heart is always towards Lao Tzu, seeing that his father is not recruited at his grandfather's house, and when he was young, he also had a grudge against his grandfather and grandmother, plus those cousins and sisters will bully him, a very thin outsider, so Zhang Weidong's impression of his grandfather's family has not been very good. It's just that now that I think about it seriously, it's just a childhood ignorance.
Thinking in my heart and sighing with emotion, the continuous verdant mountains in the distance suddenly changed. Dozens of white-flowered hills formed by mining ore are bare in the verdant mountains, and they are particularly dazzling in the sun. Zhang Weidong's eyes are like eagles, his vision is so good that he is frightened, although he is far away, he can also see that the white-flowered mountain is barren and desert. In another place, although it is almost the New Year, there are still a few workers who are shooting the blast hole, and almost half of the hillside has been blown up. Halfway up the mountain, there are several pools full of turquoise sè liquid, and the surroundings are chaotic and in a mess.
Zhang Weidong studied environmental engineering, but he was particularly sensitive to this phenomenon, and when he saw this, he couldn't help frowning slightly and said to the driver who was driving: "Master, I remember that a few years ago, it seemed that I hadn't entered the mine, but now I am mining everywhere?"
"I don't know much, I've been driving in Lingzhou city, but it's extremely rare to charter a car directly to Changhai like you. The driver who drove the car was not from Changhai County, and he didn't know much about the affairs of Changhai County, so he replied with a smile.
Zhang Weidong was also a little curious, coupled with professionalism, so he asked, and saw that the driver was not very clear, so he smiled and didn't ask again, but when he looked into the distance inadvertently, the dazzling scene in the sun still made him feel slightly unhappy.
It's just that although he is unhappy, Zhang Weidong is not easy to draw conclusions about right and wrong in this matter. Bi Jing has gains and losses, economic development, minerals to be mined, some damage to the mountains and forests is inevitable, the key issue is to grasp a degree and balance, he does not know much about mining, but from the direct view and from his professional perspective of environmental engineering, he feels that these mines should be very inadequate in environmental protection, but the specific is reasonable and unreasonable, it is not enough from his environmental point of view, but also from a comprehensive point of view.
For example, the mining method of this mine, does the extraction method have to be like this? And is it worth sacrificing these originally verdant mountains and forests for the competitive value of these mines? These are actually very particular and need to be considered comprehensively. For example, if there were a lot of gold mines hidden in those mountains, from the perspective of the state, I am afraid that even if the damage is more severe, they will not hesitate to mine it.
The taxi soon got out of the toll gate of Changhai County, not far from the toll gate, on the side of the road, a Buick Kaiyue sedan was parked, and a man about twenty-seven or eighteen years old leaned on the door of the car, holding a cigarette in his hand, facing the toll booth, watching the vehicles coming and going.
Although they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, Zhang Weidong still vaguely recognized that the man was Yang Yunli, the son of his second uncle Yang Changzheng, that is, Zhang Weidong's cousin.
"Did the master see that Buick? Zhang Weidong pointed to his cousin Yang Yunli in front of him and said to the taxi driver.
"Okay. The taxi driver replied, and then drove towards Yang Yunli.
Yang Yunli soon noticed that there was a taxi driving in this direction, and also saw Zhang Weidong, who was poking his head out and waving at him, hurriedly snuffed out his cigarette, and then waved at him with a smile.
"Second cousin, you don't seem to have changed much!" Zhang Weidong got out of the car, looked at the cousin in front of him, who was both familiar and a little unfamiliar, smiled and stretched out his hand to say hello.
"Haha, you've changed a lot. I used to be thin and small, but now I am still thin, but I have grown very tall, if you hadn't waved to me, I wouldn't have dared to recognize me on the road. Yang Yunli shook hands with Zhang Weidong with a smile, and then took out his wallet in his pocket and said to the taxi driver who was still waiting there: "Master, how much?"
"Cousin, don't, I'll do it myself. "This big year to take a taxi from the provincial capital directly to Changhai, this fare is not a small amount, Zhang Weidong is embarrassed to let Yang Yunli out, seeing this, he hurriedly pulled Yang Yunli away, while taking out money from his wallet to the taxi driver.
"You kid, when you get to your cousin's territory, you're still polite to me!" Yang Yunli said with a smile, and then turned to the back to help take down the salute in the trunk.
Seeing his cousin, who he hadn't seen for more than ten years, enthusiastically helping to load the trunk into the trunk of the Buick, Zhang Weidong suddenly felt a trace of family warmth, and the trace of estrangement left in his heart when he was young had already disappeared without a trace unconsciously.
"I heard from my little aunt that you are now promising, and you have become a university teacher at the age of twenty-four. After getting into the car, Yang Yunli said with a smile.
The little aunt in Yang Yunli's mouth is Zhang Weidong's mother Yang Yuanqing, who is the eldest in the Yang family.
"It's not like you don't know what kind of line my parents are, I was forced out. Zhang Weidong said half-jokingly.
"Haha, you can't say that, you still have to have a good endowment for reading. Like me, my parents are always strict, and you don't know your grandfather, and it's even more strict to be famous, but my grades have always been up and down, and the university I studied in was also not up or down. Yang Yunli said with a smile.
"Is Grandpa very strict? Why don't I think so. Zhang Weidong said.
"How can grandpa not be strict? Our Yang family is also a scholarly family in Changhai County, and the family rules can be strict when grandpa is here. You are the only exception, because you live far away, and it is rare to come once a year or two, so I love you very much, so when I was young, our cousins didn't like to see you, I remember beating you once!" Speaking of the back, Yang Yunli was a little embarrassed.
Zhang Weidong understood in his heart why those cousins were so unkind to him when he was a child, it turned out that it was because his grandparents loved him very much, but in this way, he remembered that his grandparents were no longer there, and he didn't know why he had a feeling of panic.
"What's the matter? Still holding a grudge?" Yang Yunli saw that Zhang Weidong suddenly remained silent, and half-jokingly.
"How could it be! I just suddenly missed my grandparents. Zhang Weidong said.
"It's o, although grandpa nǎinǎi adheres to the style of the older generation and is very strict with his descendants, he used to be cautious when he saw them doing bad things, and he hid far away, but now he wants them to take care of it but has no chance. However, they all passed away in their eighties, which is considered an advanced age, and there is nothing to regret. Yang Yunli saw Zhang Weidong saying that he missed his grandparents, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Zhang Weidong also knew that there was indeed nothing to regret according to his usual appearance, but now that he was not what he used to be, he had some regrets, so he smiled when he heard this, and he didn't continue to talk about this rather sentimental topic, but changed the topic and said: "By the way, cousin, where do you work now?"
"I, the county entry and defense office. Yang Yunli was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then said with a trace of bitterness on his face.
"Entering the Defense Office?" Zhang Weidong said with some confusion. Speaking of which, because he has been in contact with more officials now, he has gradually learned a little bit about the zhèngfǔ department, but he really doesn't know much about the entry and defense office.
"Haha, I know you don't know. It's just a department that can't be idle anymore, and its full name is called the Civil Air Defense Office, and air defense always understands, right?" Yang Yunli laughed when he heard this.
From Yang Yunli's laughter, Zhang Weidong heard a trace of helplessness and even a hint of indignation.
