Although Xiao Jingyu didn't fully believe in the accuracy of the warning about the "Nine Claws Tripod" within the Xiao family, she was worried about Xiao Zheng and said: "Xiao Zheng, everyone at home is very worried about you. Now that there is a warning, you should handle it over there and return to Ninggan from Shu." 。"Xiao Zheng didn't want Xiao Jingyu to worry either, so he said: "Okay, Jingyu, I'll handle things here as soon as possible. " 。Xia Jingyu also heard the voices beside Xiao Zheng, knowing that Xiao Zheng must be busy over there. 。Xiao Jingyu wasn't an ordinary housewife. She also worked in the workplace and knew that since Xiao Zheng went on a business trip, he must have a mission, and something should be happening right now. 。Xiao Jingyu didn't want to nag, and said again: "Things are almost done, call me <<< 。Please pay attention to safety, and be as quick as possible. 。“Okay, I understand.” 。After hanging up the phone, Xiao Jingyu's hidden worries still lingered. 。But she couldn't express it, otherwise her family would worry more. So she said to Xiao Yi, Ye Chuan Ying, Xiao Rongrong, and Fei Qingmei: "I made an agreement with Xiao Zheng..." 。He said he would leave Shu after finishing his business. 。"Fee Qingmei said, 'It's best to leave as soon as possible. You never know when something might happen.'" 。"Xiao Rongrong glanced at Xiao Jingyu, then at her own wife, and said, "Honey, you don't have to worry too much. Since we received this message, Xiao Zheng should take it seriously." 。Xiao Jingyu didn't want to be affected by the emotions of his family, like Fei Qingmei. He left home and went to work. 。Now, Xiao Zheng and their car had arrived at the dilapidated town, clinging to a rather flimsy mountain road. Some shops were open, but there were also houses that had collapsed and hadn't been rebuilt yet. However, blue pickup trucks and long-distance buses could still be seen frequently on the road, and motorcycles, tricycles, and cars were also moving about on the street. There were also villagers carrying agricultural products from the mountains to sell, showing that production and life were gradually recovering, and the fireworks of the county were slowly returning. This made Xiao Zheng feel a little comforted. 。However, he thought of Xiao Jingyu's call just now, and his heart tightened involuntarily. If there were another strong aftershock, could this county town withstand it? The car stopped in front of a four-story gray-yellow building. This building was quite different from the County Committee and Government that Xiao Zheng imagined. 。All the county committee and county government courtyards Xiao Zheng had ever seen had courtyards, even impoverished counties like Baoyuan County. The buildings might be old, but they still had small to medium-sized courtyards. 。But it was a stand-alone house facing the road, with yellow mosaic tiles on its exterior wall. A long strip in the middle had peeled off, like a meandering riverbed carved into a vast expanse of land. 。When Xiao Zheng and his group got off the bus, the leaders in the front car also came down. 。Everyone walked toward the building's entrance. 。At this time, three people rushed out in a hurry, two men and one woman. 。One of the men, Wang Wei, a standing committee member of the Chuan County Party Committee, came out and shook hands with Luo Dali, deputy director of the Provincial Publicity Department, Qin Chunhua, deputy director of the Rong City Party Committee Propaganda Department, and others. He said, "Oh, leaders, you're here! Why didn't you let me know in advance so I could go to the city to greet you?" 。The county committee member, in his forties, had a slightly plump face full of smiles. He spoke pleasantly and seemed to be the kind of person who was good at dealing with people. 。Qin Chunhua, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of Roushi City Committee, smiled and said: "I also wanted to inform Minister Wang in advance, but Minister Luo from the province wouldn't allow it. He ordered that everything be discussed after arriving at the county." 。"This statement caused the three members of the county propaganda department to all look at Luo Dailì." 。The three people seemed a little nervous. 。Luo Dalili smiled and said, "Don't look at me, I have no way either.">。I was told by the leaders of Huajing Publicity Department, our Director Liu instructed us to not notify the county first. 。"
Liu, the head of the HuaJing Publicity Department? Although his position isn't high, the HuaJing Publicity Department is a lofty department, being the highest in the propaganda system." 。As a county committee member, he's quite influential in the county. But on a national level? He's nothing special. So why did the leaders from the Propaganda Department of Hua Capital come down here today? Right now, it's a crucial period for disaster relief and reconstruction. During this time, many officials in Shuchong and Rou City who haven't been doing their jobs properly have already been dealt with—either removed from office or demoted. One careless mistake, and the hat on his head might be gone. 。
Today, people from the publicity department of Huaxing City came, and they didn't allow us to notify them beforehand. This really made Wang Wei uneasy in his heart. He hurriedly walked up and tightly grasped Liu Shisen's hand and said: "Director Liu, you have come all the way from Huaxing City to guide our research, we should warmly welcome you." 。"If we haven't done a good job in any aspect, please be sure to criticize and correct us, and we will rectify it immediately!"
He Xinliang, Xiao Zheng, and Hao Qi all exchanged glances. They didn't expect that they would come directly to the county without prior notice, putting so much pressure on the county party secretary! Liu Shisen smiled at him and said, "Minister Wang, don't be nervous. It's not because your work is bad, but the purpose of our trip is to give a surprise to one of our friends, so we didn't want him to know beforehand." 。"Wang Wei heard this, and his heart, which had been pounding wildly, finally calmed down. He hurriedly asked, "Liu Sishang, who is the friend you want to see? Is he currently in our county?" Liu Shisen turned to He Xinliang: "Secretary He, you tell me." 。He Xinliang said: “Minister Wang, the person we want to see is comrade Ma Hanshan.” 。I am He Xinliang, the secretary of the Pan Shan Municipal Committee of Ninggan Province. Before Comrade Ma Han Shan came to aid Shu, he was...the district party secretary of Gongfeng District. 。This time we are mainly following Liu, the director, to have a look at Comrade Ma Hanshan. 。。After Secretary Ma arrived, he immediately threw himself into disaster relief and reconstruction, running around the front lines every day. 。"Today, he also went to the countryside. I'll call him right away and ask Secretary Ma to come back?"
"No need">。Liu Shisen said: "That way, you give Comrade Ma Han Shan a call and ask where he is? Don't tell him we're here, just say that there's something to report to him, and have him wait for you there." 。Let's rush over together. 。"Wang Wei hesitated a bit: 'Is this appropriate? The leaders have traveled such a long way, perhaps they should rest in our meeting room first and have some tea. I'll report to Secretary Ma and ask him to come back as soon as possible.'" 。This grassroots leader was also showing respect to the superiors, but Liu Shisen came here with Huang Guowei's request for them to visit Sichuan. Therefore, he still planned to look around, and gave a glance to Luo Dailì, deputy director of the Provincial Committee Propaganda Department. Luo understood and said to Wang Wei: "Minister Wang, you don't have to be polite. Follow Liu Sisong's instructions. This is the work arrangement made by the leaders this time." 。"We definitely support the work our leaders do." 。But to make the leader go down there and suffer through all that, is truly going too far. 。"Wang Wei wore a pained expression and said, “However, since the leader has made such a clear request, we can only follow the leader's instructions.” 。I'll call Secretary Ma right now. 。"Speaking, Wang Wei took out his phone and actually connected the call right away. In the phone call, Wang Wei told Ma HanShan that he had something to report to him. Ma HanShan said that if it wasn't urgent, he could wait until he returned to the county in the evening to report." 。Wang Wei said it was an emergency, and anyway he could get there quickly. 。Ma Han Shan then told him that he was in a school. 。Wang Wei hung up the phone and reported to Liu Shisen and other leaders: “Leaders, Secretary Ma is at 'Chuan County School' " 。"Let's go now?" said Liu Shisen. "Okay." 。"Wang Wei then asked his subordinates to arrange the car. While waiting for the car, Xiao Zheng asked Wang Wei: "Minister Wang, your county Party committee and county government are quite different from other places, aren't they?" 。"This is our temporary office, Wang Wei explained. Our original county party committee and government building collapsed in the earthquake." 。This time, not only ordinary people but also ten or so cadres of ours have died! After the earthquake, we urgently needed an office space. This place was originally a supply and marketing cooperative, so it was requisitioned as a temporary office for the county party committee and county government. 。"Ah, I see." 。Xiao Zheng nodded. 。After a while, Wang Wei's car drove out from inside. The provincial and municipal officials got back in the car and headed for "Chuan County School." 。In the county, roads are even more difficult to navigate. The extent of damage varies greatly, and although patches have been made using stones and cement, they remain bumpy and rough. 。The accompanying officials, including Hao Qi, started to feel car sick. 。After walking for almost forty minutes, we finally arrived at a town. From afar, it looked like a tall flagpole standing straight up. A ray of sunshine pierced through the overcast sky, illuminating the bright red flag on the pole. The flag fluttered proudly in the wind. 。Below, there is a fence surrounding the school. At the entrance of the fence, stands a sign that reads "Chuan County School." This must be the school then. The houses inside are also built with prefabricated panels. 。The car stopped at the door, and Xiao Zheng said: "Director Liu, shall we three go in first?" Director Liu nodded and said: "Leaders, please wait for us here for a moment. We'll go in and have a look first." 。What is Ma Hanshan doing at school? Liu Shisen also wants to see it with his own eyes!
Since the Hua Jing leaders have made such a request, the provincial and municipal leaders have no choice but to follow suit. 。The county officials greeted the gatekeeper, and he let them through. 。Liu Shisen, He Xinliang, Xiao Zheng, and Hao Qi walked towards the inside. 。The red flagpole stands proudly at the front of the playground. Although the classrooms are simple wooden structures, each doorway has a concrete floor and there's even a temporary playground with a plastic track and artificial grass, adding a splash of color to this otherwise gray school complex. 。The original school should have collapsed in the earthquake, but this makeshift school seemed to be holding normal classes!As everyone walked forward, they reached the last classroom. Xiao Zheng finally saw a familiar figure - it was Ma Hanshan! To his surprise, as a member of the municipal party committee and county party secretary, he wasn't accompanying a group of grassroots leaders and principals in guiding the work, but was with some children instead. 。This is probably a labor class, with two women guiding children in folding paper cranes and writing well-wishes. 。Ma Hanshan was surprisingly sitting in the middle of two children, painstakingly folding paper cranes. His hands were clumsy, and a girl beside him corrected his technique, showing him the proper way to fold them. 。Ma Han Shan broke into a smile, nodding as if he had learned something. "I see, oh, that's how it is..."
Such a peaceful scene surprised everyone!
