The Licheng County Investment Promotion Promotion Conference was successfully held in Huanghai City.

On the first day of the conference, more than a dozen companies came to participate in the event.

Six of them reached cooperation agreements on the spot.

When the good news reached the county, Jiang Yunhao and Gong Xiaoqin were conducting research in the towns below.

After ending the call with Li Li, Jiang Yunhao was in a pretty good mood.

During the phone call, Li Li reported in detail the situation of the “promotion meeting”.

Behind the scenes, he still recognized Zhu Chunlei's ability.

Putting away his phone, Jiang Yunhao turned to look at Gong Xiaoqin: "How about it, Minister Xiaoqin, do you want to take a rest?"

Today we are doing research in Wangzhuang Township, which has a typical hilly landform and the roads are all up and down.

Along the way, Gong Xiaoqin's body felt a little overwhelmed.

"Secretary, I'm fine."

Gong Xiaoqin expressed quickly.

Jiang Yunhao nodded and said nothing more.

Laiwangzhuang Township, adjacent to the county, is the largest pear origin in Licheng County. It is also the main venue for the annual Pear Blossom Festival and the Licheng Pear Cultural Festival.

There are "King of Pear Trees" and "Gongli Trees" which are more than 400 years old.

Even nationwide, it is extremely rare.

Jiang Yunhao came here for research before when he was the county magistrate.

But because of time constraints, he did not stay longer.

He came here today because he wanted to see this pear production area in person and learn more about the marketing situation of this production area.

Because he wanted to know the real situation, Jiang Yunhao did not let his subordinates inform him to come to Wangzhuang Township.

After walking forward for a while, I finally saw some villagers working in the fields.

"Go over and take a look?"

Jiang Yunhao glanced at Gong Xiaoqin and asked.

The two were walking in front, followed by Liao Wei, director of the county party committee office.

Liao Wei was followed by two deputy chief staff members from the county party committee office and the organization department.

In addition, two people from the county bureau followed.

Liao Wei is Li Li's recommended successor.

Jiang Yunhao was also familiar with him. When he presided over the work of the county committee as the county magistrate, Liao Wei had always done his best.

After Li Li recommended him, Jiang Yunhao directly made him a regular employee.

Of course Liao Wei was grateful for Secretary Jiang's support.

Today's inspection by the secretary was not informed, so Liao Wei knew it was a "private visit incognito."

Of course he didn't dare to neglect some preparation work.

At this time of year, the pear blossoms are already bearing fruit.

Seeing several villagers picking fruits, Jiang Yunhao and Gong Xiaoqin joined them.

The villagers were not surprised to see strangers approaching, and their hands never stopped moving.

"Auntie, these fruits must not have grown to their maximum size yet. Why are they picked now?"

After watching for a while, Gong Xiaoqin couldn't help but ask.

She is a local and is familiar with some situations.

Pear trees usually bear fruit from July to October.

But generally speaking, people don’t start picking fruits until at least the end of August.

But now, it's clearly only the beginning of August, so why are the villagers already starting?

When Gong Xiaoqin asked this question, several villagers couldn't help but feel a little wary.

"You are?"

Just as Gong Xiaoqin was about to speak, Jiang Yunhao rushed to speak.

"We are tourists from out of town, and we want to go back immediately to buy some specialties. I saw uncle and auntie picking these underripe pears, so it was a little strange..."

After Jiang Yunhao finished speaking, several villagers immediately dropped their guard.

“It turns out they are tourists from other places, and they are warmly welcomed.”

A middle-aged man in his fifties spoke up.

"We picked these underripe pears because we have a mission in the village."

"There is still a mission to pick pears!?"

Jiang Yunhao frowned, as if he thought of something.

Gong Xiaoqin saw Jiang Yunhao's curiosity about this matter.

She had a guess in her mind, but she didn't dare to say it out loud at the moment.

"Uncle, come and take a break and smoke a cigarette."

Jiang Yunhao waved to several villagers, "Can you tell us what's going on?"

"Thank you, thank you. Double Happiness, it smokes so well."

The middle-aged uncle was very talkative. He took the cigarette, stopped what he was doing, and told the story in detail.

"This pear is not ripe enough. If you sell it, you will definitely lose money. Of course we know this. There is nothing we can do about it..."

The uncle said with emotion, "Isn't there a fruit processing factory in the village? The processing factory doesn't care about anything else. The sooner the cans are put on the market, the better. Contractors like us have tasks in July every year and must supply a certain amount to the factory.

That’s all.”

Jiang Yunhao frowned even more when he heard this.

"What if it's not supplied?"

"If you don't supply it, then you won't be able to get the contracting rights next year."

Listening to the uncle's unwilling words, Jiang Yunhao fell into deep thought.

Seeing that Jiang Yunhao didn't say anything, an aunt next to him added: "Actually, it would be fine if everyone was treated equally. But Wang Ergou, a man who kills thousands of people, never picks fruits on the land contracted by his family in July and August. They are all contracted by others.

Come and supply.”

"That's right, their contracted land area is obviously the largest!"

"They don't pick the fruits until September when the pears are at their largest. The appearance and quality of the pears are of course good, and the purchase price is also high. Counting this year, the average price sold by Wang Ergou's family is higher than that of our ordinary contractors.

How much."

Hearing this, Jiang Yunhao already had some idea in his heart.

Needless to say, this Wang Ergou, as the villagers call him, must be the dominant figure in the village.

While he opened his own processing factory to make money, he also did not forget to exploit the villagers.

Jiang Yunhao was very angry that such bad behavior happened under his own eyes.

However, he also knew that this was not the time to have an attack, and he had to get tangible evidence.

After thinking about this, he calmed down his emotions and looked at the smoking man.

"Uncle, this is a forced sale, isn't it? Didn't you think of going over to sue him?"

The middle-aged man shook his head: "Sue him? How to sue him? Where to sue him?"

"Yes, Wang Ergou's father is the mayor of the township. Who dares to sue him?"

The villagers expressed their opinions in various ways.

Jiang Yunhao grasped the key point and immediately asked: "Township chief? Is he the deputy?"

"We don't know this, but he is the mayor anyway."

Hearing this, Jiang Yunhao didn't ask any more questions.

They are all simple villagers, and they only know so much.

Turning to look at Gong Xiaoqin: "Let's go."

Gong Xiaoqin hummed and left side by side with Jiang Yunhao.

Liao Wei, who was following the two of them, was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

He heard every word of the conversation between Secretary Jiang, Minister Gong and the villagers just now.

The impact of forced buying and selling is very bad, it is obvious.
