Chapter 1585 That Person Is Coming

Sijiucheng.

Bang!

"How foolish! How absurd!"

"How could you do such a thing?"

It was already afternoon when Mr. Chen got the news. When the secretary handed him the report, he was surprised at first, then disbelief, and finally horror.

A small thing can often reflect the real contradiction.

He knew how much courage it took for a person to crash to death.

And this courage also shows how much injustice.

He could also imagine how disappointed the farmers were when the bags of grain were thrown on the ground.

What was lost was not just a little grain, but also the people's hearts.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help pounding the table again.

His heart was full of haze and a little confused!

He was not a person who sat in the office and didn't know the sufferings of the world. He even knew the situation in the countryside better than most people.

Especially the existence of surplus grain. Every winter, the data reported from various places hurt his eyes.

That is to say, the promotion of high-yield corn in recent years has reduced this number by nearly two digits, but the remaining number is still heartbreaking.

However, if a country wants to be strong, it must develop its industrial strength.

If a country wants dignity, it must embark on the road of industrialization.

But industrial development is not achieved overnight. Various infrastructure needs to be consolidated, and industry must develop step by step.

And development and construction require workers, materials, and someone needs to pay.

So, hardworking and simple farmers stood up. They used the food produced by hard work to supply the labor of urban workers and provide living security.

Even grain exports are used to earn materials to meet the needs of industrial development.

Especially after the withdrawal of the Northern Alliance, domestic industry fell into a low ebb, and development required more investment, and all of this required the efforts of the majority of farmers.

But this is not a reason to enjoy the fruits of their hard work with peace of mind.

It is not a reason to act recklessly, blatantly, and trample on dignity.

On the contrary, they need more respect and care.

Without their efforts, the revolutionary construction would be like straw without soil, like duckweed without roots.

What industrialization?

That’s why he developed industry while improving agricultural productivity, so that more people could have enough food.

Let more people have fish, meat, vegetables and soup on their tables, let more people have solid houses to live in, and wear thick cotton-padded jackets when they go out…

But now, some people have forgotten all this.

Some people even want to regard all this as ‘should’, ‘is’ and ‘should be so’.

They only want the results and ignore the process, using the way they think is right to hurt the most simple feelings.

All they want is gourds.

But they forget who is fertilizing and watering, who is weeding and removing insects, and who is pouring their heart and soul into cultivating gourds.

They forget that behind their success, there are countless people using carts to deliver the saved food.

When they succeed, they can enjoy the cheers of the people, but no one remembers those who have paid behind the scenes.

Their lives are very tenacious, even stronger than grass.

Because they are extremely hungry, they can eat grass.

But their lives should not be neglected and trampled on like this.

Because they are also human beings!

Huh…

The pain from his fist calmed him down, but the monologue in his heart made him feel that there was a breath of air in his chest.

This air was like a stagnation, he wanted to vent it, but he didn't know who to talk to.

He stood up and paced in the office, and a firm look appeared on his face for a long time.

If an official does not make decisions for the people, he might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes.

Turn around and walk out!

Hongqi Village.

In the courtyard of the Ding family.

A coffin stopped at the door, and Aunt Wang was surrounded by a group of women to help.

In the lobby, three children knelt on both sides with white cloth on their heads, and there were several nephews and nieces of the same family beside them.

Ran Qiuye stayed with Aunt Wang. Since Yang Xiaotao left, she called the Yangjiazhuang Brigade. After she knew about the incident, she was worried and rode her bicycle here.

But after learning about the incident, she couldn't help feeling sad.

So she came to help at home.

Outside the yard!

After Yang Xiaotao and his men carried the body back, the Ding family took over the funeral affairs and started to make arrangements in the house, using this method to express their inner respect.

When they came, they were clean.

When they left, they were glorious.

After knowing about Fatty Ding, the whole village was in grief.

Then, anger.

Perhaps it was because of sympathy for one's own kind, or perhaps it was because they were really upset, but the people who came here always had a hint of depression.

"You have to help with Fatty's affairs!"

"You can't let him leave in turmoil!"

In front of the village heads and elders of Hongqi Village, Grandpa Yang said seriously.

No matter what, Fatty Ding has done a lot for the farm over the years.

It is reasonable and reasonable that his funeral must be settled!

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Don't worry, I will watch this matter. If the superiors really want to judge it this way, I will find the leaders and the chief!"

Grandpa Yang nodded, and did not think that Yang Xiaotao was wrong.

Because they themselves did not think that Ding Deliang did anything wrong.

"Also, the fat man's children must not be affected!"

After Grandpa Yang finished speaking, the people around him looked stern.

These days, birth and reputation are particularly important.

If you have a bad birth, do something evil, and leave a bad reputation, you can ignore the dead, but the descendants will suffer.

Especially for children, the lightest is that they can't lift their heads, and the most important thing is that they can't get out of the shadows for the rest of their lives.

Yang Xiaotao knows the severity of it, and he also knows that if it is judged by the current facts, it will be very unfavorable to Fatty Ding's family.

And what Grandpa said is to tell Yang Xiaotao that even if he really can't deal with Fatty, he must protect the growth of the children.

Before Yang Xiaotao could speak, the head of Hongqi Village suddenly said, "Old Yang, you don't need to say more about this matter. Our village can take good care of them!"

"Yes, the men in our Hongqi Village are all brave. If we don't do this kind of thing well, we will be criticized!"

"It's just a meal for each person. We have followed Fatty for many years and have benefited a lot."

"We don't feel ashamed about Fatty's affairs."

After the village head finished speaking, everyone shouted, if they still asked people from other villages to help with this kind of thing, where would the men in their entire village put their faces?

How would the villagers look at their village?

How would the young men and women in the village get married in the future?

No one could back down, both emotionally and rationally.

The village chief was relieved to see everyone talking about unity.

He patted his chest and said seriously, "It's settled. A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Their home is here, and Hongqi Village is their home!"

Then the village chief looked at Yang Xiaotao again, "Don't worry, we will never forgive anyone who dares to gossip about this in the future."

"When the child grows up, Xiao Yang, you are a capable person, then you can help again!"

Yang Xiaotao glanced at Grandpa Yang, and the other party nodded.

Obviously, he knows the people in this village very well, and the village chief should be an honest person.

"Okay, since you said so, let's do it as you say!"

Yang Xiaotao nodded and agreed, "As for the children's problem, when they are old enough, they will go to Yangjiazhuang Primary School, and food, clothing, housing, etc. will be free. When they grow up, I will arrange jobs for them!"

After receiving Yang Xiaotao's guarantee, the surrounding villagers all smiled.

In their opinion, since Yang Xiaotao said so, he must be doing what he said.

Just as they were discussing the future, a jeep suddenly appeared outside the village.

On the bumpy road, the car was up and down from time to time, but it was moving quickly.

Tong Xiaolong was driving while being alert to the surroundings.

This time, he was the only one accompanying the protection.

Originally, he wanted to bring a few more people, but the chief said that he came in a private capacity, and it was not appropriate to bring so many people.

Tong Xiaolong knew the chief's temper. Since he said so, he would definitely not change.

In the back row.

There were a few more wrinkles on the thin old man's face, and the gray at the end of his eyebrows was also much more.

As the car bumped, he coughed from time to time.

Beside him, Chen Lao heard the cough and a trace of worry flashed across his face.

"I'll come this time, don't come out with your health!"

"Otherwise, if I go back and let my elder sister know, I will be blamed!"

Chen Lao seemed to be complaining, but he was actually concerned.

The thin old man shook his head, "It's an old problem. It happens this winter."

"It's cold and hot, just get through it!"

"Besides, this is about our reputation. If we don't handle it well, it will be a crisis of trust."

After saying that, he looked outside the car, "Speaking of which, I am a very incompetent housekeeper!"

"This place is so close to the Forbidden City, but I haven't come to see it. Are you a mediocre minister who doesn't know the sufferings of the world?"

Old Chen shook his head, then smiled, "If you are a mediocre minister, then what am I!"

After saying that, both of them laughed.

Chen Lao felt the bumps on the road, but his heart moved, "But this road has to be repaired, otherwise when it gets hot and rainy, we won't be able to walk!"

"Yes, you're right, road construction is an important means of communication, you can put this project on the agenda."

"Yes, we had this plan. Now the output of the chemical plant has increased a lot, and the asphalt from the chemical industry is just right for paving the road. When it gets warmer next year, we will start."

Chen Lao thought of the plan for transportation and said it out, "The plan extends from Sijiucheng to various towns first, and then gradually expands to villages to improve the local traffic environment."

"This is great, not only in Sijiucheng, but also in other large cities and capable towns."

"We can't let the road become a problem for people to travel!"

"Besides, the achievements of national industrial construction should also be fed back to farmers, so that they can stand on their own two legs and stand firmly."

Old Chen nodded, "We already have construction in this area, especially the agricultural tools developed by the Red Star Machinery Factory, which have now been promoted throughout the country. Our mechanization is increasing year by year."

"Well, I have heard that comrades have done a good job."

Then the two of them focused on the current situation, from road construction to agriculture, but also on the lives of farmers.

The two of them had their schedules arranged, and they didn't have much time to meet each other on weekdays, so this time they came out just to communicate.

"Chief, we're here!"

The two talked for a while, and the car suddenly stopped, and Tong Xiaolong's voice sounded immediately.

The two looked at each other, then nodded and got out of the car.

The two looked around the village, and then walked into the village.

At the entrance of the village, someone saw a jeep coming and immediately ran into the village.

Yang Xiaotao and others were still talking about the future, and they heard someone say that a jeep came outside, and three people got off and walked over here.

Several people looked at each other and knew that the person who might solve the problem had come.

Then, led by the village chief, a group of people walked out.

In their hearts, if they came to reason, there was still room for discussion.

But if they came to cause trouble, they were not easy to deal with.

Just when the crowd was halfway through, they saw three people walking forward.

The village chief and his people stopped and looked at the three people approaching, especially the leader. He always felt that he had seen them somewhere, but he couldn't remember who they were.

Compared with the hesitation of the village chief and the villagers, Yang Xiaotao recognized who they were at a glance.

He whispered to Mr. Yang on the side. Mr. Yang's hand holding the pipe trembled, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. When he looked forward again, he couldn't help rubbing his eyes, and then his face was full of surprise.

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he quickly walked out of the crowd and came to the two people, with a serious face, "Hello, two leaders!"

Then he nodded to Tong Xiaolong.

Seeing the two people coming, Yang Xiaotao immediately understood the other party's intention.

I also understand that with the arrival of the two people, this matter has ushered in a turning point.

Even when this person appeared, his attitude has been proved.

And this is also the best way to mend the rift.
