Li Yuanlong returned to Shuiming Township, which was driven by Han Wei.

He was not in Shuiming Township, so he sent Han Wei to Zhou Yu to run errands and donate. Shuiming Township was in trouble, and Han Wei was straightforward and stubborn. Li Yuanlang was worried that he could not handle the plot of these tiger and wolf elements and indirectly protected him.

After chatting on the road for a few words, Li Yuanlang took the opportunity to take a nap.

After a few minutes of sleeping, my phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number, and it was a gentle female voice: "Hello, Township Mayor Li, I am Leng Yinghua."

Leng Sakura? Li Yuanlang quickly turned the memory cells in his brain to search for this name that seemed to have an impression but seemed unfamiliar.

Han Wei, who was driving on the side, reminded: "It's Teacher Leng from Hanjiatun."

Li Yuanlang slapped his forehead and went to Hanjiatun Primary School last time. Principal Han mentioned that Leng Yinghua was not present at the time because she had something to do.

Leng Yinghua said: "Governor Li, there is something I think I should tell you. Shuiming Township has not paid the salary of all teachers in the township for three months. The teachers complained. It was said that the county party secretary and county magistrate of Tian were going to Hanjiatun to attend the donation ceremony, and they wanted to petition on the spot."

Li Yuanlang was shocked when he heard this. He really held the gourd and started to rise. Once the teachers petitioned together, not only would the donation ceremony be bleak, but he, as the executive deputy township head in charge of education, was very likely to take the blame.

No, you must find a way to solve it.

Leng Yinghua said again: "Captain Li, please understand the behavior of teachers. Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day are coming soon. Not only does the school have no money to pay benefits, but also owes everyone the salary. Teachers are also human beings and have to support their families. They have to do so."

"I understand everyone's difficulties." Li Yuanlang said truthfully: "Teacher Leng, do you know who the organizer of this incident is? I want to meet him."

"What, is Township Mayor Li going to take revenge?" Leng Yinghua immediately became alert.

"No, I want to talk to him and discuss a solution that everyone can accept." Li Yuanlong said: "Extreme behavior may not necessarily have a good effect. The ultimate goal is not that everyone hopes to get the reward for the fruits of their labor! I will tell you responsibly that I will take care of this matter and will take care of it all the way."

After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Leng Yinghua said: "It is Chai Mingqing, the vice principal of the township middle school. He is the initiator of this petition. If you talk to him, he can represent the demands of all teachers."

"Thank you, Teacher Leng." Li Yuanlang frowned, touched his chin and thought for a while, and said to Han Wei: "Do you know Chai Mingqing?"

Han Wei grinned and said, "Director, you really asked the right person. Teacher Chai is my junior high school class teacher and teaches mathematics."

"Tell me, how are others?" Knowing yourself and your enemy, Li Yuanlang is about to fight with Vice Principal Chai and have a comprehensive understanding of him.

Han Wei told him that Teacher Chai is a role model. He is in his forties and has been teaching for almost 30 years, and he can be said to be full of students all over the world. There are many outstanding students, some settled abroad, and some work in Beijing ministries and commissions. The best ones have already reached the mayor position.

Han Wei scratched his head embarrassedly and said that those who are useless like him are a minority after all.

The reason why Chai Mingqing organized everyone to petition and complain was forced to do so. His family was in the countryside, and his wife and children were all rural household registrations, one son and one daughter, his son was in college, his daughter was in high school, and an old father who was ill in bed. The family of five was supported by his salary.

The three-month salary was unbearable for a family like him who had a lot of expenses. So many mouths were waiting for him to mail his living expenses, and buying medicine for his old father to treat his illness. Chai Mingqing already owed a lot of debts for this. He was really impatient, and the honest man had to sue for compensation and seek wages to protect his own interests.

"Go to the middle school in the village." On the streets of Shuiming Township, Jetta Wang went into the streets of Shuiming Township, Li Yuanlang asked Han Wei to turn the car and head straight for Shuiming Township Middle School.

Shuiming Township Middle School is not much better than Hanjiatun Primary School, and the conditions are a little better.

When the principal heard that Li Yuanlang was coming, he hurriedly greeted Li Yuanlang with a smile and held Li Yuanlang's hand tightly, and complained: "Li Township Mayor came to inspect and guide the work, and the Education Office did not notify us, so that we could be prepared."

Li Yuanlang said that there was no need to be so troublesome. He just walked around and took a look, but he couldn't see the real thing after preparing.

The principal smiled embarrassedly and accompanied Li Yuanlang to inspect the school. While walking, Li Yuanlang asked about the school situation and remembered it one by one.

After walking a long way, Li Yuanlang asked if Chai Mingqing was there and wanted to see him.

Chai Mingqing was in class. Because of the shortage of teacher resources, those with some ability were transferred to county middle schools or high schools. Therefore, the school leaders also had the task of teaching. To put it bluntly, they were just to earn the only substitute fee.

Chai Mingqing came after smoking a cigarette in the principal's office. The principal tactfully said goodbye and left, leaving only Li Yuanlang and Chai Mingqing in the room.

Chai Mingqing had gray hair and was very thin. He was in his forties and looked much older. He wore a pair of old-fashioned glasses with black frames and tied with iron wire in the temples. He was washed white with a blue Zhongshan outfit, and the sleeves were covered with white chalk.

When Chai Mingqing learned of Li Yuanlang's identity, he seemed to have been prepared for a long time. He raised his head and chest, straight waist, and had a very righteous demeanor.

"Principal Chai, please sit down." Li Yuanlang took the initiative to shake Chai Mingqing's hand, asked him to sit on the sofa, took out a cigarette and let Chai Mingqing make him wave his hand, saying that he would not smoke and quit.

"I can't afford to smoke anymore. A few yuan per box of cigarettes is enough for our family to make a day's meal."

Immediately, Chai Mingqing changed his subject and looked directly at Li Yuanlang and said, "Guest Li, don't beat around the bush. If you have something to say, I will accept it if you want to remove my vice principal or drive me out of the teaching staff, but the premise is that I must solve the problem of arrears of wages for me and my colleagues, because that is our hard-earned money and the reward we deserve."

"Principal Chai, you misunderstood. I am not here to hold anyone responsible, but to discuss solutions with you." Li Yuanlang Xiaozhi moved him with reason and expressed his thoughts in his heart.

As soon as the donated funds arrive tomorrow, he will take the lead in taking out 100,000 yuan and repaid one month's salary for teachers in the township. Moreover, whether private or public teachers, each person will be given one pound of mooncakes and two pounds of pork as a welfare benefit for the Double Festival.

When Chai Mingqing heard this, his eyes lit up, stroked the mottled glasses frame, and asked in disbelief: "Really?"

"I promise with my personality that I will do what I say." Li Yuanlang threw a firm look at Chai Mingqing, with a very serious and sincere expression.

"I heard from the township secretary Huang Wenfa that the donation has been arranged in the township. In addition to providing welfare for the township employees, I also have to pay the meal expenses owed to Yeyuhua Hotel. It will not be your hands at all, and the township will intercept it directly."

Huang Wenfa and Li Yuanlang understood that this was someone deliberately spreading rumors, but it was not a rumor. It was probably because he made a decision without knowing it and used donations to fill the gap left by their eating and drinking.

"Principal Chai, don't worry, no one can use this money, I promise you. Let's do it..." Li Yuanlang said, turned around and sat in the principal's seat, immediately wrote a guarantee letter, which was to put his words into the text, and solemnly signed his name.

"Principal Chai, please keep this guarantee letter. If I don't keep my word and publish it to the public, I will accept all the complaints from the county to sue me. The prerequisite is that you must not cause trouble at the donation ceremony tomorrow. Do you think this is OK?"

Chai Mingqing took the piece of paper handed by Li Yuanlang with trembling hands. He was excited for a long time and nodded vigorously. Finally, a few words were squeezed out from his teeth: "I believe in you, and all the teachers in the township believe in you too."

After leaving the township middle school, a few days later, when Li Yuanlang entered the Shuiming Township Government again, a strange phenomenon surprised him.

It turns out that the colleagues in the village who saw him like to ignore him. Now, no matter whether it is ordinary clerks or department officials, they smile and nod to him, and they are respectful in their politeness.

What's going on? Li Yuanlang couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

"Captain Li." Li Yuanlang was about to open the door of his office when he saw Huang Wenfa squeezing his triangular eyes and running over with a smile and said, "Secretary Ma, please come over."

Ma Shengran looked for him? Li Yuanlang was not surprised. He just looked at Huang Wenfa's triangular eyes, his big hooked nose, and the rumors that this guy spread to seduce people. He hated him so much that he was itchy.

However, Li Yuanlang also knew that Huang Wenfa was just a minion, and there must be someone behind him. And who else would this person besides Liu Shuxi!

Liu Shuxi, director of the Party and Government Office, is Huang Wenfa's immediate boss. Huang Wenfa only wants to treat him as his own father. Liu Shuxi's words are like an imperial edict, and Huang Wenfa will definitely implement them firmly.

Forget it, I don’t want to argue with such a villain. Li Yuanlang said lightly and opened the door and entered the house. He hadn’t come for a few days, and the office was still clean. Even the pots of flowers and plants were watered. It was obvious that Wu Hongli’s credit.

Li Yuanlang stopped for a few minutes before knocking on the door of Ma Shengran's office.

"Come in." Ma Shengran's majestic voice came from inside.

After Li Yuanlang entered the house, Ma Shengran wrote something on the document without raising his head, saying, "Sit down casually, I still have something to write."

There was a chair opposite Ma Shengran, which was obviously shorter than him. It was OK for a person who was not tall to sit on it. The key was that Li Yuanlang was 1.8 meters tall and felt very uncomfortable to sit. If he straightened his waist, it would be too tiring, so he had to lean forward to form a bowing trend.

This person is really good, even taking into account the sitting posture, for fear that others will be one piece taller than him, and it means to cover him. From this small detail, Li Yuanlang vaguely felt that Ma Shengran might be superstitious.

"Drink water? There is tea in the cabinet, so I don't have time now." Li Yuanlang heard a series of actions by Ma Shengran. He happened to see the water in Ma Shengran's cup bottom. He got up and poured out the tea left in Ma Shengran's cup, brewed it again, and prepared a cup for himself. Then he sat down and waited for Ma Shengran to speak.

After a while, Ma Shengran raised his eyelids, took a cup of tea, looked at Li Yuanlang and said slowly: "Comrade Li Yuanlang, you are very brave!"

Unexpectedly, Ma Shengran said this with a dissatisfaction. Li Yuanlang was puzzled and became confused for a moment.
