Chapter 1398 Trip to Wanjing Village (Part 1)

Qiao Xiaoli told Fang Yan that she had learned a piece of news that the village committee of Wanjing Village in Pingshi County held village meetings from time to time.

At the meeting, villagers' representatives will inquire to the village committee about problems that occur in the village, and solutions will be proposed at the meeting, which will be supervised and implemented by villagers' representatives.

Qiao Xiaoli thinks this is a good subject to promote positive energy. There is a village meeting today and she wants to invite Fang Yan to accompany her to Wanjing Village for on-the-spot investigation and interviews.

Li Yuanlang agreed very much and said: "I have nothing to do today, so you can accompany Xiaoli. I will give you a task. Don't reveal your identity. Just wear your eyes and ears. Tell what you see and hear."

Tell me exactly."

"Wanjing Village has done a good job. When problems arise, they are solved on the spot, which is similar to asking political questions on TV. In contrast, our Lanqiao City has regressed in this regard. We had political questions on TV before, but now they have been ignored and there is no follow-up.

.”

"I think this matter needs to be taken up again, because TV political inquiry is the closest way for us to get to the masses, and it is also the way we can listen to the most authentic voices of the masses."

Fang Yan accepted the order, took the keys to Li Yuanlang's Honda, happily drove to the downstairs of Qiao Xiaoli's rental house, picked her up and went straight to Pingshi County.

Today, Fang Yan's relationship with Qiao Xiaoli has become clear.

During the Spring Festival holiday, both parents met to confirm their relationship.

It’s just that Fang Yan has just paid off his ex-girlfriend’s debt and can’t find the money to pay for the down payment of a house.

Another point is that Fang Yan followed Li Yuanlang to work in Lanqiao, and it still needs to be considered where to settle in the future.

So the two of them decided to get along first, and then make the next step when things get smoother.

Pingshi County is not far from Lanqiao City, it only takes 40 minutes to drive on the highway.

But it still takes more than an hour to get to Wanjing Village.

The meeting in Wanjing Village was held at ten o'clock in the morning. Fang Yan and Qiao Xiaoli hurriedly hurried. When they arrived at Wanjing Village, it was already half past ten.

"It's really disturbing. I didn't see the beginning." Qiao Xiaoli picked up the interview equipment and trotted to the door of the village committee.

Strange? The door of the village committee is locked, and not a single person can be seen in the yard.

Could it be that it’s finished?

Qiao Xiaoli was so anxious that she stamped her feet.

Fang Yan advised her not to worry. He saw a small shop opposite and went in to find out when to buy cigarettes. Then he came back and told Qiao Xiaoli, "We are very lucky. It will be changed to 1:30 in the afternoon without any delay."

"Huh..." Qiao Xiaoli patted her heart and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I finally didn't miss it."

"There are still a few hours left, what are you going to do?" Fang Yan asked his girlfriend.

Qiao Xiaoli looked at the cigarette in Fang Yan's hand, rolled her eyes, and thought about it, "Go back to the car and wait for me. I'll go in and ask."

He handed the interview equipment to Fang Yan casually, leaving only a voice recorder behind.

Fang Yan stood by the car, bored, and lit a puff of smoke.

Not long after, Qiao Xiaoli walked out of the store carrying a plastic bag.

Fang Yan threw away half of his cigarette, opened the door and got into the car.

"I just took the opportunity to buy something and chatted with the villagers inside. It was quite fruitful."

Qiao Xiaoli talked endlessly about her gains.

There is a villager in Wanjing Village named Zhao Yongcai, who turns out to be a notoriously difficult household in the village.

The main reason is that he is lazy and idle. He spends the whole day eating and drinking. If someone holds a banquet, he will be extremely happy.

Not only do they eat and drink for free, but they also get some cigarettes, wine, and leftovers.

Because of this, my wife got angry and ran away with another man.

But three years ago, he suddenly became rich.

He was well dressed and used well, and he even tore down the three thatched houses in his house and built a large and magnificent house.

It is said that the whole thing cost over 200,000 yuan.

Others thought he had won the lottery jackpot, but Zhao Yongcai never bought lottery tickets.

Later, when he was drunk, he revealed that it was all thanks to his only daughter, Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin is twenty-four years old, 1.7 meters tall, slender and beautiful.

After graduating from junior high school, I went to work elsewhere and stayed there for seven years.

I came back once the year before last, driving a nice car worth hundreds of thousands and wearing gold and silver.

Zhao Lin herself said that she worked in the south and was appreciated by her boss because of her good skills. She was quickly promoted from an ordinary worker to the manager of the public relations department, with an annual salary of millions.

Good guy, this is the black chicken turning into a phoenix. Zhao Yongcai suddenly started to tremble. He only looked at the sky while walking without looking at the ground.

His daughter graces his face and gives him money every month, which is enough for him to enjoy a prosperous life.

When people get rich, especially when they go from poverty to sudden wealth, it is inevitable that their wealth will expand.

Years ago, Zhao Yongcai had a conflict with his neighbor over trivial matters. They had a disagreement and hit his neighbor Zhao Dahai with a bottle of wine. He received three stitches on his head.

This time, the village committee meeting mainly dealt with this matter.

Zhao Dahai disagreed with Zhao Yongcai's compensation and asked him to apologize in person.

At first, Zhao Yongcai ignored it, and there was no way to compensate him or apologize.

Then the village director did his job and finally agreed reluctantly.

According to him, he has apologized, but I don't know why Zhao Dahai still asked the village committee to resolve the conflict between them.

Originally, the meeting was scheduled to start at ten o'clock in the morning, because Zhao Yongcai drank too much last night and said he had a headache and could not attend.

The village committee had no choice but to reschedule the meeting to 1:30 p.m. It was hard to say whether Zhao Yongcai would come.

After Fang Yan heard this, he curled his lips and said, "This Zhao Yongcai, if he is so rich, it would be great to move to the county town, why would he still stay in the village?"

"I guess..." Qiao Xiaoli reached out and took out a bottle of drink from the plastic bag. Fang Yan opened it for her and took a sip. Qiao Xiaoli continued: "He is rich now, but he is not the kind of rich man who can rival the country. In the village

He can show off his power here, but who cares about him in the county town."

"It makes sense." Fang Yan nodded.

It was still early, so the two of them sat in the car, filling their stomachs with the food and drinks bought by Qiao Xiaoli, and the rest was waiting.

I closed my eyes and rested for a while, and soon it was one o'clock in the afternoon.

Because she had said hello in advance, Qiao Xiaoli took Fang Yan into the village committee and met the village director.

Qiao Xiaoli introduced Fang Yan, saying only that he was a cameraman and nothing else.

Anyway, the village director didn't know Fang Yan. If he found out, the leaders of Pingshi County would probably come out in force.

Who would let go of the opportunity to get in touch with the secretary of the municipal party committee and deepen their relationship.

In the village committee meeting room, village committee members and villager representatives walked in one after another.

Fang Yan followed Qiao Xiaoli's instructions and fixed the camera in the best shooting position.

Qiao Xiaoli kept pressing the camera shutter to take photos from multiple angles.

Everyone listened to the village director's introduction. Today's meeting was reported live by city TV reporters. Everyone sat upright and faced the camera with a brand-new look.

Seeing that everyone was ready, the village director looked around the venue and saw that the chairs opposite were empty. He frowned and asked, "Why hasn't Zhao Yongcai come yet?"

Someone immediately raised his right hand and responded, "During lunch, I went to his house to inform him, and he agreed to come."

The village director said angrily: "If you go and urge me again, no matter what the situation is, if you don't come in the morning, forget it. He has set the time at 1:30, so if you say you can't come or not, what do you think of the village committee?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice coming from the door, "Director, what are you talking about in a weird way? I'm here!"

Everyone followed the sound and saw Zhao Yongcai wearing a black mink coat and walking slowly into the venue with square steps.

Fang Yan noticed that Zhao Yong was only in his fifties, with a sleek slicked back hair, a gold necklace as thick as his finger, and a huge Maitreya Buddha pendant that shone with gold and was very dazzling.

This kind of behavior is just like that of the big brother on the road, but it always feels nondescript.

The village director raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Yongcai, but did not answer.

He grabbed the microphone, cleared his throat, and said, "Everyone is here, let's have a meeting now..."

First, it was Zhao Yongcai’s neighbor Zhao Dahai who spoke.

He reflected emotionally that when Zhao Yongcai built his house, he had already occupied an extra half meter of his yard. Considering that he was a neighbor and based on his seniority, Zhao Dahai still wanted to call Zhao Yongcai "uncle", so he didn't care.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yongcai pushed even further. Two days ago, he repaired his garage and occupied an extra half meter, taking up a whole meter of his house.

Zhao Dahai came to see Zhao Yongcai for comment, but Zhao Yongcai hit him with a beer bottle. He had a cut on his head and needed three stitches.

Afterwards, Zhao Yongcai covered his medical expenses and gave him an additional five thousand yuan.

Zhao Dahai said: "Zhao Yongcai should pay me money, but he threw the money on the ground and warned me boldly that he would beat anyone who dared to mess with him in the future. Isn't it just a loss of two money? He is not short of money and can use it."

It's not a big deal if money can settle it."

"Director, listen, isn't this insulting?"
