There was nothing to say all night. In the morning of the next day, after the three of them had breakfast, Xue Yayan and Ling Yun both asked for leave from their work and school respectively.

After packing Lingyou's luggage in the morning, he drove to the airport.

When he was about to board the plane, Ling Yun opened his hands and threw himself into Ling You's arms: "I will go to Hedong Province to see you when I have a holiday."

Ling You patted her back and said, "Okay, but you must also take care of the medical center during the holidays. Go see Grandpa Wei and Grandma Sun more. If you encounter anything, call me or discuss it with your brother Yayan.

Don’t be willful.”

Ling Yun nodded: "I understand, you have said it eight hundred times."

At this time, the prompt to prepare for boarding sounded, and Xue Yayan also opened his arms and said: "Come on, let us hug each other too."

Ling You punched him in the chest: "Get out."

But just as he was about to leave, he turned around and hugged him: "Take care of my family for me."

Xue Yayan nodded and said: "Don't worry."

After saying that, Ling You walked in under the watch of the two people.

Ling Yun looked at Ling You's back and shed two lines of tears.

At this time, at the town committee and town government of Liushan Town, Pinggu County, Yuchuan City, Hedong Province, Jia Wanxiang, secretary of the town committee, was wearing a fat and big white shirt, a jacket outside, and a hat as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle.

wearing glasses, sitting in his office, drinking strong black tea and reading the newspaper in his hand.

Office director Diao Yonggui knocked on the door and walked in: "Secretary Jia, are you busy?"

Jia Wanxiang lowered his head and looked up, cleared his throat and said, "Lao Diao, you're not busy, just sit down."

Diao Yonggui found a chair and sat down. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pants pocket and handed one to Jia Wanxiang. After lighting it for Jia Wanxiang, he also picked one up. Then he lit a cigarette for himself and said: "

I heard from the county that the new mayor will be reported tomorrow. Do you want to see what kind of reception I will give here?"

Jia Wanxiang turned a page of the newspaper, exhaled another big puff of smoke and hummed: "I heard that he is a young kid again. How can we treat him well? But please ask which director of the county organization department is coming tomorrow.

If Minister Gao comes here in person, you can set the banquet standard a little higher. It's not your first day of work, so you don't have to ask me about such trivial matters."

Diao Yonggui chuckled and said: "It's clear, it's clear."

Then Jia Wanxiang put down the newspaper in his hand, flicked the ashes of his cigarette and frowned and said: "Let's go to Sun Wukong, and here comes a monkey. I don't know what the county thinks. They always send those useless student officials to us.

He talks and talks nonsense all day long."

Diao Yonggui nodded: "Yes, Mayor Shen ended up risking his life, which made us all eat the same thing."

Jia Wanxiang put out the cigarette butt in his hand and waved his hand: "You go and figure it out, I'll take a nap."

Diao Yonggui stood up with a smile: "The battle was good last night, wasn't it?!"

Jia Wanxiang said as he walked to the small bed in the office: "Granny, I haven't won two hundred yuan after playing all night."

Then he sat down on the edge of the bed, took off his shoes, pointed at Diao Yonggui and said: "Tonight, you can count on me, that old boy Jing Dayong is too bad at playing cards."

Diao Yonggui bowed and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll come tonight."

After saying that, he walked to the window and closed the office curtains for Jia Wanxiang, then gently closed the office door and walked out.

Two hours later, Ling You got off the plane and arrived at Songming City, the capital of Hedong Province. He got his suitcase at the check-in office, took a taxi and headed towards the provincial government.

As he walked along, Lingyou looked out the window. Hedong Province was different from Jiangning Province. Hedong Province attached great importance to industrial development and had a large number of large and small coal mines, silver mines and other mineral developments. It was also the capital of the feudal dynasty, and the tourism industry was also at its peak.

Therefore, in terms of national economic development, Hedong Province is more than one step ahead of Jiangning Province.

At this time, the driver saw Ling You in the back seat wearing thick clothes and asked in a Hedong dialect: "Brother, are you not a local?"

Although Ling You couldn't understand the dialect, he roughly understood what the driver meant, so he replied: "Oh! I'm from Jiangning."

The driver tried hard to control his accent and said in Mandarin as much as possible: "Are you here for a trip?"

Ling You smiled and said, "I'm here to work."

The driver nodded: "Many people have come to work here in the past two years. I have to pick up several people who come to work every day. Are you going to the mine or the factory?"

Ling You didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he said casually: "Enter the factory."

The driver smiled and said: "It's good to work in a factory. The salary is high and the treatment is good. It's better than working in the mine, which is not a place for human beings."

After hearing this, Ling You asked: "Isn't the mining development in Hedong very good?"

The driver held the steering wheel with one hand and waved with the other: "Forget it, wages are always in arrears, and safety is not guaranteed. One of my cousins ​​is a miner. He was killed by a landslide in the mine at the beginning of the year. Let alone compensation now."

, I can’t even get back the several months of salary arrears.”

Ling You asked: "Didn't the government come forward to solve this problem?"

The driver said angrily: "I filed a complaint in court, but for more than half a year I didn't even get a letter. I also went to the county government gate to make a fuss, but the leader didn't see it and didn't say anything. Instead, I was taken away by people from the police station and criticized."

After saying that, he sighed again: "I'm afraid my death will be in vain."

When Ling You heard this, he couldn't help but feel that the world was in decline. He had stayed in Yungang Village for three years and had no idea about the situation outside. No wonder Mr. Qin said that the plumbers in Chunjiang were prophets. Only when you are at the grassroots can you truly understand the people at the grassroots.

life and voice.

So he said: "How can anyone die in vain? Justice lies in the heart of the people, and there will be explanations."

The driver smiled bitterly and said, "I hope it's as you said, little brother."

Ling You also opened his mouth and chatted with the driver about some customs in Hedong Province and what happened among the people. Sometimes the most important thing we can't underestimate is the taxi drivers in a city, because they come into contact with different people every day, and they have a lot of information in their hands.

But this is all first-hand news.

After the two chatted for a long time, the taxi arrived in front of the provincial government gate. Lingyou paid and said to the driver: "Pay attention to safety." He got out of the car and walked towards the government gate. A man in the guard box

When the armed policemen saw him coming, they also stared at him cautiously with their peripheral vision.

When Ling You walked to the guard duty room, he said to a middle-aged man in his forties inside: "Hello! I'm going to call Governor Qin, please let me know."

The middle-aged man looked at Ling You sideways and asked impatiently: "What do you want to do with the governor?"

Ling You said: "I made an appointment with Governor Qin. You can call to confirm. My name is Ling You."

The middle-aged man had a look of disbelief in his eyes, but he still picked up the phone and dialed Secretary Qin Songbai's landline.

After a while, the call was connected, and he said with a flattering smile: "Secretary Qi, this is the guard room. There is a person named..."

As he spoke, his tone changed and he asked coldly: "What is your name?"

Ling You then said: "Ling You."

The man then showed a flattering smile and said, "That one, called Ling You, said he wanted to meet Governor Qin."

Secretary Qi then said on the other end of the phone: "Oh, Mayor Ling is here. Please ask him to sit with you for a while. I will come out to pick him up now."

When the middle-aged man heard this, his smile froze. After he stammered a few hello words, Secretary Qi on the other side hung up the phone first.

The man glanced at Ling You and couldn't help but feel shocked. Mayor? Why is the mayor so proud that he asked Secretary Qi to come out to greet him in person?

So the man hurriedly walked out of the guard room with a smile, and went to get Ling You's suitcase: "Yes, it's Mayor Ling, right? Secretary Qi said, let you wait a moment, he will

I'll come out to pick you up. You come in first and have a rest. I'll make you a cup of tea, please."

Ling You waved his hand: "You're welcome, I can just do it myself."
