Chapter 79 79
Ruo City is located in the middle of Province S, and it is an unremarkable city in this western inland province—in other words, it has no distinctive industries.Against the backdrop of the half-dead economy of the entire province of S, the perennially dry Ruoshi City, without exception, maintains a pathetic growth every year, with serious population loss.
"Youli Village... To tell you the truth, our Shuangyu Tongxiang is a provincial-level poverty-stricken township, but Youli Village is the poorest in our township, a national-level poverty-stricken village."
The staff of the township government in Tongxiang received Xu Yunji and Shen Xie.
——Yes, Xu Yunji didn't go directly to Xie Zheng and the others, but greeted the super management department after getting a general understanding of what happened to them.The Supervision Department urgently contacted Shuangyu Tongxiang Township Government through the national security department, saying that there was a special incident, and special experts were dispatched to investigate urgently, and the investigation letter was sent by fax.
Otherwise, even if Xu Yunji went with Shen Xie, it would be useless. What can you do if you have a high cultivation base and strong strength when the villagers are outraged?
Shuangyu Tongxiang Township government sent a car to ask two civil servants to accompany the two experts from the capital to Youli Village, and introduced the situation of the village along the way.
"...The population loss in Youli Village is very serious. Our county has no special industries, and we mainly rely on farming. But the whole county has relatively little rainfall, and Youli Village has one of the least rainfall. All young people have run away to the city. After working in the village, the old and the young are left behind. Promising or old people die, and the young and middle-aged will pick up the children and never come back. The original village of more than 300 people was not big at first, and it has been walking for two years Walking, there are only more than 200 people left."
The two accompanying people, one drove and the other introduced to Xu Yunji.
The introduced woman, surnamed Ma, surnamed Jiao, director of the government office, is a woman with delicate facial features, but probably due to the strong northwest wind and heat, her skin is red and rough.
As she spoke, she inquired casually: "What are the two experts doing this time to investigate?"
She was talking about the two experts, but her eyes were on Shen Xie.
Xu Yunji gave a "tsk" in his heart.I heard that grassroots civil servants have developed a pair of sharp eyes, who is the leader and who is the secretary, and they can guess whether they are real power factions or not.
This Director Ma has been looking at Shen Xie, and it seems that he seems to be the talker.
It can only be said that my aura is not cultivated enough.
He was muttering in his heart, but he didn't know that Ma Jiao who was opposite was also muttering in his heart.
I have been a civil servant in the countryside for so many years, living in poverty, but I have done a lot of work. I am so busy every day that the heels of my shoes are worn out, and I run around in and out of the village.But don't look at the low level, there are many great leaders I have seen.After all, they are poor. In the past few years, they have been working on poverty alleviation, and there are occasional waves in the city, and occasional waves in the province. Even the deputy prime minister has come.
She Ma Jiao asked herself that she was someone who had seen big scenes, but she felt that the two "experts" in front of her were quite strange.
These two experts are really young.He is an expert, but he looks like a graduate student at his age—especially the one with the bigger smile, saying that he is an undergraduate student.
But the temperament is not at all what the kind of ivory tower students who have never mixed in the society can have.
The taller one has a... how should I put it, a posture of not being angry and arrogant, an absolute superior.Sitting there, there is no expression, and the light glances in the eyes make people feel stressed.In contrast, the shorter young man, although he often smiles, speaks without leaking anything, and is very thoughtful in what he says, and occasionally squints his eyes slightly when thinking, and the aura of being able to take things out comes out.
Then it's time to inform the research.
It’s normal to tell you a month in advance for this kind of research. Business-to-business, the process always needs to go through. The leader’s signature, approval, arrangement of meeting and discussion time, accommodation, etc. must not be given in advance?
One or two weeks in advance, this is considered urgent, and unless there are special circumstances, those who do things like this will have to be criticized.
This kind of expert has come quietly, everyone has arrived, there was no movement before, and suddenly the national security department called and sent a fax to ask for cooperation...
This is just one case, never seen before.
Ma Jiaoxin said that the secretary and the township chief probably thought it was wrong, otherwise why would she ask her to entertain her for a long time?He also vaguely stated that he would be notified in time if something happened.
These two said they were "experts", and the research letter didn't even have a title. They were not professors or associate professors, let alone any titles. They said they were specially appointed experts by the Ministry of State Security, and they only had a name.
If it weren't for the fact that these two apparently have no rank or title, and the principle of equality cannot be broken, Ma Jiao really doubted that the mayor would want to find out in person.
With this strange investigation, hidden identities, coupled with age and temperament, Ma Jiao has already guessed from "secret anti-corruption 'imperial envoy'" to "secret personnel who arrested spies"-after all, it was the greeting from the national security department .
In short, this can't be for investigation, there must be some special mission, surprise inspection.
Ma Jiao remembered the mayor's instructions in her heart, and tried to find out if she could ask something.
She asked the taller one, but she answered another person who seemed to be more talkative:
"It's nothing serious, but recently I heard that the drought in Tuo City was severe from the past year to the beginning of the year, and there have been frequent heavy rains recently. I am worried about geological disasters and people's living problems, so I came down to do research."
"So that's how it is." Ma Jiao nodded knowingly, "The recent heavy rain has caused the water level to rise, which is indeed a big problem."
Xu Yunji thought his answer was very logical, perfectly avoiding the supernatural realm that ordinary people can't get involved in, but the civil servant opposite was sneering wildly in his heart:
Sure enough, the water is deep.
In such a hurry, he rushed over from the imperial capital just to investigate a natural disaster?
This one is really tight-lipped, and the other one seems to be even more difficult to contact.It seems that something important has not escaped.
Shuangyu Tongxiang is not big, and there is no traffic jam. It takes half an hour to drive to Youli Village.
Zhao Qiang, a civil servant who was driving, parked the car at the gate of the village committee, went in and talked for a while, and soon came out accompanied by the village party secretary, introduced and greeted each other with Ma Jiao and Xu Yunji, and then walked to the depository.
The village party secretary asked: "I don't know where the two want to start?"
Xu Yunji glanced at Shen Xie.
Because of the strong spiritual sense of the beasts, if they don't deliberately cover up, it is easy for them to interact with each other.Therefore, Shen Xie only lowered his eyes for a moment, then pointed in one direction: "Over there."
Ma Jiao showed a trace of astonishment.After all, these two have never been here before, so why did they choose a direction directly.
Xu Yunji explained: "Our colleagues have come to investigate before, because there are no corresponding investigation letters and certificates, there have been some conflicts with the villagers..."
Ma Jiao: "...So that's how it is."
No matter how Xu Yunji heard it, he felt that the tone of this response was quite meaningful.He was confused for a moment, and felt that what he said was very logical, so it was an illusion.
Ma Jiao: It seems that there was already another wave of people who carried out secret missions before, but they accidentally had conflicts with the villagers, which could not be resolved without going through official channels, so this wave of people had to go to the township government as a last resort.
The village party secretary was stunned for a moment: "Someone from our village came to me just now and told me that suspicious outsiders had entered the village—to be honest, our village is poor and remote. Except for the villagers who went out to work and returned to their hometowns, generally no outsiders came. Yes. The two strangers who came before are colleagues of the two experts?"
After getting an affirmative answer, he patted his thigh exaggeratedly:
"Oh, this is really flooding the Dragon King Temple. Although our villagers are very simple, but firstly, the folks in this big hometown are relatively rural, and secondly, the level of education is indeed relatively low, and they are a bit superstitious. Your two colleagues There was some conflict with the well-known "little prodigy" in the village—not the prodigy who studied, but the prodigy who was able to understand God—and I didn't know that they came from the capital government, so the villagers were on their side."
Hearing this, Ma Jiao's heart skipped a beat: Don't start a fight, right?If this is really a secret mission, what if the matter of the Ministry of State Security becomes a big issue, and the news spreads and messes up?And these villagers don't know anything, if they are not careful, they will get into trouble.
She hurriedly asked the village party secretary: "Are those two all right? What happened?"
In fact, the village party secretary didn't know very well. Fortunately, after walking for a while, he had already arrived at the place.
Xu Yunji saw a group of people from a distance, there must be more than 20 people, gathered in front of a house.The house is a typical rural self-built house, two-story high, but the walls are gray and yellow, bruised, and I don't know when it was built.Looks like it should be at least [-]+ years old.
More than 20 people gathered in front of the house, and Xu Yunji saw Xiezhi and Yu (豸虎) at a glance. Opposite them was a child who looked like a teenager. The two were talking about something. It's anger.The people around opened their mouths and made gestures from time to time.
The village party secretary yelled from a distance: "What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing here if you don't grow rice at home? The capital and the village leaders came to inspect it. You have to keep it up!"
Everyone looked at his voice, and the two Xiezhi over there saw Shen Xie and Xu Yunji, their eyes lit up immediately, and they went out in front of them: "You are finally here!" Then there was a stomach full of bitterness To fall.
Over there, Ma Jiao and the village party secretary hurriedly questioned the villagers what happened. This is an expert from the capital. Are you looking for trouble?
Both Xu Yunji and Xie Zheng could hear the villagers shouting loudly: "... how do we know that he is an expert? Stop our prophets from robbing the divine bird! They can't be asked to take it away! This is a gift from God to bless us The divine bird of the village can keep our food from dying in the ground..."
Shen Xie only hated his five senses for being too sharp, rubbed his ears, and asked Xie Zheng, "What's going on?"
Xiezhi Xie is just a man who looks quite young, with a straight face—yes, it’s straight, probably because when you see this face on TV, you feel upright, and when it appears in an anti-Japanese drama, it’s definitely eight-way, and when it appears in police and gangsters It definitely looks like a policeman in the play.
After all, it is Xiezhi who is in charge of the judicial prison.
Hearing this, he smiled wryly:
"I didn't expect this to happen either. Manman has already been discovered by that boy and raised him. That boy—the one who quarreled with us just now is called Li Chengcai, a left-behind child. He should be born with a very good affinity for elements. Strong, without guidance, I have been able to figure out some metaphysical things, such as being able to make a small fireball. The villagers here are really conservative and xenophobic, and they are a bit superstitious. They shouted that Li Chengcai is a prophet, He is a child prodigy. Probably because of that bit of spiritual power, Li Chengcai found Manman. Manman can flood the world, so it always rained heavily in Youli Village during this period. The villagers believed that Li Chengcai was a prophet, and Manman Man has become the divine bird found by the Prophet, who came to save their village and solve the drought problem. We are going to take Man Man away... Li Chengcai called out, and half of the village came. If not at this moment It's meal time, you see more people around us."
The author has something to say: So, I can make up a completely different tense and exciting story with my own brain...
