Yang Hongwen's cousin failed to come back in the end, and finally had no choice but to be laid to rest in accordance with the custom of the village. Everything was taken care of by Yang Hongwen's father.
The whole process only took two days. When the matter was completed, Xie Fugui and Zhang Chunlei finally rushed back from the field. Looking at everything in the village, they could not say a word for a long time.
Accompanying them were He Zhenguo and the town leaders.
Different from the reactions of the two of them, He Zhenguo breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the situation in the village.
Compared with other places, the situation in these villages is much better, at least in terms of casualties.
He Zhenguo did not find the village committee immediately, but came to Xianyuan and found Su Chengzhou.
In terms of affection, Su Chengzhou should call him uncle, but in terms of status, he is far inferior to Su Chengzhou. This is why when he came to Pingyang County, the first place he inspected was Zhangjia Village.
Sitting in Zhang Shengli's small building, besides these two people, there were also Zhu Yao and Tang Rou, but Zhang Shengli was not there.
"Uncle He, are you here to allocate earthquake disaster funds?"
Su Chengzhou and He Zhenguo had known each other for a long time, so he would not be polite at all, and it was all about money.
"When I come here this time, the earthquake disaster funds are only secondary. The main thing is your villages."
"What's the matter?" Su Chengzhou glanced at the two girls who were silent and felt a little nervous.
"About the merging of your four villages." He Zhenguo said with explosive information.
"Hecun?" Su Chengzhou sat up from his chair and said, "We can't make the final decision on such a big matter, so we'd better ask Sheng Sheng for permission."
"Where is Zhang Shengli? Did he know I was coming and ran away in advance?" He Zhenguo laughed.
When Tang Rou heard this, she quickly said: "It's okay. Brother Fugui and Chunlei are back, haven't they? They just have a truck, and he is leading the villagers to clean up the garbage in the river."
He Zhenguo nodded, glanced at Zhu Yao, who had never spoken, and said, "Yao Yao, tell me, you are the branch secretary of Zhangjia Village. Do you have any ideas about this village merger?"
When Zhu Yao heard that He Zhenguo suddenly dropped the topic to her, she quickly shook her head and said, "I have no idea. It depends on what Zhang Shengli says and what other villages want."
"How many other villages?" He Zhenguo laughed and said: "I have asked about it a long time ago. They are eager to join together. After this natural disaster, can they see that your Zhangjia Village has suffered the least loss from beginning to end?
, what’s the reason? Isn’t it because you have money now and all the houses are newly built?”
When He Zhenguo said this, he pointed to a group of people standing outside and said: "The leaders of your town are also here. They were the ones who just went to communicate with the other three villages. Things went smoothly and no one objected. Moreover, everyone hopes
Zhang Shengli came to be the village chief."
Hearing this, Tang Rou shook her head and said, "It is impossible for Shengli to be the village chief."
"What? He thinks he's too young?" He Zhenguo said angrily: "He has done so many things, isn't it for the better development of the village? Now that the people's sentiments are what they want, he can run away?"
"Uncle He, it's useless no matter how much you say. I know Shengli best. He has no intention of becoming the village chief." Su Chengzhou also laughed at the side.
"Then if he is not allowed to be the village chief, is there any suitable candidate?" He Zhenguo stood up and walked back and forth in the living room.
"Hecun is the first time for our county. This time it is just for testing. The result was arrived at after many considerations. I don't want this test to end in failure."
When Tang Rou heard this, she thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you let Shengli come back? Ask him what he means."
Just like that, Zhang Shengli, who was busy by the river, was called back.
When he learned that the village was to be merged, his expression did not change and he choked back all of He Zhenguo's words in one sentence.
"I don't object to the integration of the village, but I don't want to be the village chief."
He Zhenguo looked at Zhang Shengli, thought for a long time, and then said: "Okay, tell me who is the right person to be the village chief?"
Zhang Shengli didn't think twice and answered directly: "Just choose. Since it is a combined village, everyone must vote. This has always been the case, and this time is no exception."
"Do you have any objections to the name of this village?"
"Do you have any opinions? With Yuelong Mountain as our back, the so-called "supporting the mountain and eating the mountain", once the village is combined, it will be called Yuelong Village. How simple." Zhang Shengli answered quickly, as if he had thought about it in advance.
"Yes, you made a good plan early in the morning." He Zhenguo pointed at Zhang Shengli and said with a smile: "You have already planned it, right?"
Zhang Shengli did not deny it, but said with a smile: "Since we are going to vote, let's call people to the village committee while you are here. Everyone except me is involved. It is also a test point for our county.
Well, it can’t be shabby anymore, it’s most appropriate for you to host it.”
Seeing that Zhang Shengli had already thought of the matter in front of him, He Zhenguo shook his head and smiled bitterly.
The action was very fast. Zhang Shengli made several calls. Within half an hour, everyone stopped what they were doing and came to the village committee. Even Su Chengzhou participated. Only Zhang Shengli stayed in the fairy garden to accompany him.
Su Shicheng.
"Why, wouldn't it be good for you to be the village chief?" Su Shicheng asked with a smile while sorting out his herbs: "Don't you always want to think about the villagers and want the village to develop? This is a great opportunity."
"Being the village chief is very troublesome. You are timid in doing things, and you have to look at other people's faces. How comfortable it is for me to be the master of this fairy garden."
"Then what if you choose someone you don't like?" Su Shicheng looked at Zhang Shengli, wanting to hear his answer.
"Impossible. If what I predict is correct, Xiaorou is the choice for village chief this time."
"Oh? Why?"
"They are not stupid. If they choose someone else, then they are out of their minds." Zhang Shengli said angrily: "Everyone is as smart as a monkey. Xiaorou is a college student and majoring in economics. In addition,
They want to drag me into the pirate ship, so Xiaorou really has to be the village chief."
"It seems that you have already thought about it." Su Shicheng chuckled and said, "Aren't you afraid that Xiaorou will run away with someone else in the future?"
"What are you talking about, master? Xiaorou is not that kind of person."
Seeing Zhang Shengli's anxious look, Su Shicheng laughed loudly: "So, you should get married as soon as possible, and everything will be fine."
It was rare to see Su Shicheng joking with him. Zhang Shengli smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, if possible, I really don't want Xiaorou to be the village chief, but there is no way. I am not the right person to be the village chief. If I don't let Xiaorou be the village chief, the villagers will
There is really no hope.”
"You can still think about this. The people in the village are simple and honest. Now they put all their hopes on you. If you don't care, who cares?" Su Shicheng sighed: "You have to think more about this incident.
Those children... forget it, let's not mention this, but if you are able, you must build this school. No one can suffer the children."
Zhang Shengli nodded.
This incident had a great impact on him. The school is the first problem to be solved, followed by the hospital. Now in Yihe Village, there are nearly a thousand people in the whole village. This is considered a big village. If these are missing,
It really doesn't work.
"Go ahead, their election should be over soon. Then tell the man named He Zhenguo your opinions and see if you can get help from the county."
Hearing Su Shicheng's words, Zhang Shengli shook his head and said, "We can't cause trouble to the county. Our village was the least affected by this incident, but other villages were the most severely affected."
