The scene became tense again, and it had returned to the tense situation.
"Hello everyone, I am Lei Hong, the new director of the Xinhua Town Office. Can everyone calm down?"
Lei Hong took the microphone in the hand of a policeman and said to both sides of the confrontation.
"Do you know the consequences of impulsiveness? Do you want the tragedy of a few years ago to happen again?"
Lei Hong's words have attracted the attention of both parties, and everyone looked at the young man holding the microphone.
Seeing this scene, Lei Hong knew that the opportunity was not to be missed, and the time would never come again. He quickly said, "You are all fellow villagers. You all have parents and children. If something happens to them, what will they do? Have you ever thought about it?"
"It was the Zhao family who caused it first. No one from the Li family bullied us."
"That's because your Li family did not follow the regulations and crossed the border to fish, but you still acted confidently and hurt others with your exports."
There are people in both camps telling each other's faults.
"Second uncle, the one talking with the microphone is the uncle who saved me that day."
A child in the crowd pointed at Lei Hong and said to the middle-aged man in front of him.
Lei Hong looked at the sound and recognized the child as Li Lei, whom he had rescued that day.
"Li Lei, come on, come on over," Lei Hong shouted to Li Lei. When Li Lei heard Lei Hong's shout, he turned around and looked at the second uncle he called.
His second uncle hesitated for a moment, nodded to Li Lei, and followed Li Lei towards Lei Hong.
What Leihong didn't expect was that two people walked out of the Zhao family camp, an adult and a child. Leihong recognized this little boy as Zhao Gang.
"It seems there is hope. We must seize the opportunity this time and try to resolve this conflict as much as possible," Lei Hong thought in his mind.
"Hello, uncle!" Li Lei and Zhao Gang shouted to Lei Hong almost at the same time, but the two adults who came together still glared at him.
"Li Lei, why didn't Zhao Gang go to school?" Lei Hong said to the two of them affectionately.
"I heard there was going to be a fight here, so we came back," Zhao Gang said, and Li Lei nodded in reply.
"Excuse me, what do you call me? I am Lei Hong, the new director of the Xinhua Town Office." Lei Hong said to the two middle-aged people.
"This is my uncle Li Zhongsheng"
"This is my father Zhao Yuezhong"
"Haha, hello," Lei Hong took the initiative to extend his hand and shake it with them.
Lei Hong realized from the moment they shook hands that these two people should be what Li Yong said were martial arts practitioners. Their palms were rough and very strong. Even Lei Hong, who had a foundation in martial arts, felt a little tight.
"You all have a sense of loyalty, and what you do is loyal to your family, but I feel that this is not true loyalty."
"Have you ever thought about the consequences of a real conflict? Do you really want the previous tragedy to happen again?" Lei Hong said to them again.
Li Zhongsheng and Zhao Yuezhong were still facing each other angrily and did not speak. Seeing this scene, Lei Hong did not say anything either. He pulled Li Lei and Zhang Gang together and asked.
"Uncle, I want to ask you something. Who drowned first in the river that day?"
"It was me. I was weak at the time, so I sank into the river. After Zhao Gang heard my cry, he swam over and tried to pull me back," Li Lei said first.
"Well, Zhao Gang, why did you go to save him? Do you know he is Li Lei?" Lei Hong asked Zhao Gang.
"Yeah. I know"
"Then you go to save him if you know why. Don't you know that you have a problem with the Li family?"
"I know, but I can't just watch him drown in the water."
"Then your feet are cramping and you're almost drowned. Aren't you scared?"
"I'm afraid, but I can be saved even if I'm afraid. Even if I drown too, I won't regret it."
After Zhao Gang said this, Lei Hong stopped asking questions and looked directly at the two parents.
"Director Lei, I really thank you for Li Lei's drowning. Thank you for saving my nephew's life." Li Zhongsheng said to Lei Hong with his hands clasped in fists.
"Well, Director Lei, I also want to thank you. If it weren't for you, my son would have had leg cramps and would have been in danger." Zhao Yuezhong also thanked Lei Hong with the same gesture.
"Haha, no need to thank you. In that situation, I will save no matter who it is. You all heard what Zhao Gang said just now. I think you can't even compare to a child."
"Hey, to be honest, we don't want this either. The Zhao family is so aggressive over trivial matters," Li Zhongsheng said angrily.
"Don't you, the Li family, often be unreasonable and unforgiving?" Zhao Yuezhong said not to be outdone.
"Okay, please stop talking. I know what the ultimate reason is. If I have a way to solve this reason, can you all live in harmony?"
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Lei Hong said quickly.
"Do you know the reason?" the two said almost in unison.
"What troubles you is nothing more than the word 'money'. If your life was better and you had money, would you still confront each other like this? Would you still have armed fights over fishing territory?"
After listening to Lei Hong's words, Zhao Yuezhong and Li Zhongsheng looked at each other and nodded at the same time. They agreed with what Lei Hong said.
"Xinhua Town is so poor. Apart from fishing from the river and digging money from the fields, is there any other way? Who doesn't want to live a better life, and who is willing to fight for a little profit and blood," Li Zhongsheng said.
"If I can help you, would you like to stop arguing and sit down and talk?" Lei Hong said to the two of them with a smile.
"No problem, I can guarantee this. If it's true as you said, our Li family will only recognize you, Director Lei."
"Our Zhao family is the same. We only recognize you, Director Lei."
Seeing that Zhao Yuezhong and Li Zhongsheng both expressed their opinions, Lei Hong felt very happy. The matter he was originally worried about was actually solved in this crisis.
"Okay, let's make an agreement like this. Let's go and say hello and let them all disperse." Lei Hong said to Zhao and Li. "When you go back, you must give it to the people below."
Let’s make it clear that both sides will benefit from cooperation, and both sides will suffer from confrontation.”
"After they all disperse, you two each take a few more people in charge to go to the town office with me to discuss the specific matters. Haha, we will know what the project is when the time comes." Lei Hong turned around and walked away.
Zhao and Li said as they went out.
"Everyone has heard about what happened in Xinhua Town, right?" Liu Yunfeng, secretary of the county party committee, said to the standing committee members present.
In the conference room of the Daoxian County Party Committee, Liu Yunfeng was presiding over a temporary standing committee meeting due to emergencies in Xinhua Town. Wang Yongzhi, the mayor of Xinhua Town, happened to be having a meeting in the county and was also present to listen.
"Okay, let Secretary-General Zhang Xiaodong introduce the specific situation again.
After listening to the Secretary-General's introduction, everyone present remained silent, either admiring their teacups or playing with the pens in their hands.
"A few years ago in Xinhua Town, the same two groups of people had a fight with each other, which resulted in serious consequences. Everyone knows it well, so I won't say more." Liu Yunfeng said, "Why is it still like this now? It is said that there are constant small frictions.
A large-scale confrontation actually occurred today, please express your opinions."
"For something like this to happen today, I think Secretary Liu Xuehao of Xinhua Town has an unshirkable responsibility. When the previous incident occurred, he was also the parent official of Xinhua Town just like today."
As soon as Liu Yunfeng finished speaking, Ma Jianbo, the deputy secretary in charge of the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate, immediately said:
"I think Secretary Liu Xuehao has a big governance problem."
Also, let's not talk about the close relationship between Ma Jianbo and Liu Yunfeng. As for the serious incident that happened today, if there were large-scale casualties due to a fight with weapons, then he, the deputy secretary in charge of the Public Security Bureau, Procuratorate and Judiciary, would not be able to escape.
As you know, his predecessor resigned sadly due to the same incident last time. This also understands why Ma Jianbo was the first to speak.
"Yes, I think what Secretary Ma said is very correct. Why did the same thing happen again today without learning from the lesson? Isn't it rare that Secretary Liu Xuehao didn't think of ways to resolve the conflict between the two big families after the last incident?
?" Tao Wei, Secretary of the Dao County Political and Legal Committee, spoke.
Ma Jianbo spoke just now because he is the leader of the county committee in charge of public security, procuratorate, and law, but Tao Wei is the directly responsible leader, and he must also speak. Although Tao Wei knows that he has no obvious bias, he got his position because of both sides.
After fighting with each other, the city allowed Tao Wei to take advantage in order to balance the results, but now that such a big thing has happened, he must make his position clear.
"Are Secretary Ma and Secretary Tao a little serious? As far as I know, Liu Xuehao came to the scene in person, and even fainted while trying to calm down the situation," said Wang Feng, deputy secretary in charge of publicity. "Besides, this kind of
Things happen unexpectedly. Even if you have done your job well before, if something unexpected happens and causes another conflict, no one can predict this."
