Chapter 78-Chapter 79 Incident of starving to death
Originally, the post of secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee was given to Organization Minister Fei Mo, but Fei Mo was not from Li Hongyang, but followed the county magistrate Zhang Caozhong. Because some time ago, Li Hongyang accidentally lost the position of Lin Quan Town at the Standing Committee meeting. The mayor and one party committee member were not allowed, so he thought of a sinister way to drain the salary from under the cauldron.
The title of Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee was stripped away from Feimo, saying that those who were engaged in organizational work should concentrate on ensuring the good relations of party-elected cadres. Thus, his cronies, that is, Wang Changran, director of the County Public Security Bureau, reported With the approval of the Moxiang City Municipal Party Committee, they were all appointed as the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and were elected to the Standing Committee. However, Chen Guangxu, Secretary of Chengguan Town and Deputy County Magistrate, was promoted to the Standing Committee by Party Secretary Zhong Mingyi, and received great help from Moxiang City Mayor Luo Haotong.
In order to get the two new standing committee seats in Yuyang, the three giants in Moxiang City, namely the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Yang Guodong, the Mayor Luo Haotong, and the Party and Mass Secretary Zhou Qianyang, once again pulled a big trick. This is what made Zhou Qianyang almost burst into anger. The next time, Yang Guodong actually got together with Luo Haotong and joined forces to divide the two spots.
Therefore, the addition of these two standing committee members has greatly strengthened the prestige of Yuyang County Party Committee Secretary Li Hongyang, allowing Li Hongyang to have five votes on the Standing Committee, namely Executive Deputy County Magistrate Xiao Junchen, Propaganda Minister Kong Lizhu, and County Party Committee Office Director Jiang Yaze, newly appointed Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and Director of the Public Security Bureau Wu Changran, and himself.
The five confirmed votes made County Magistrate Zhang Caozhong breathless. Now Li Hongyang's ability to control the Standing Committee is getting stronger and stronger. As long as he gets one more vote, the Standing Committee will pass the majority of what he wants to do.
Party Secretary Zhong Mingyi has 2 more votes with the addition of Chen Guangxu. In addition, with the support of Moxiang City Mayor Luo Haotong, he has a much greater say. Sometimes he can even compete with Yuyang County Mayor Zhang Caozhong’s 3 votes. The ticket is called an axe.
However, Zhong Mingyi is still the weakest. He is just a faggot. Sometimes he cooperates with Li Hongyang, and sometimes he cooperates with Zhang Caozhong to mess with Li Hongyang. Shooting in the east, firing in the west, and fishing in troubled waters are Zhong Mingyi's usual methods. But this method They still want to be effective. Now both Li Hongyang and Zhang Caozhong are very good to Zhong Mingyi. Of course, they hope that he will fall to their side.
Whenever Zhong Mingyi and Zhang Caozhong were having a subtle disagreement, Li Hongyang would of course squat aside and enjoy himself secretly. He thought to himself, you two had a good arm wrestling, and if you got hurt, I would just come and pick it up.
However, he didn't have much of a peaceful life. Zhong Mingyi changed his mind as soon as he said so, because he was afraid that if Zhong Mingyi and Zhang Caozhong colluded, he would sweat again.
So this three-legged force is a bit like Wei, Shu and Wu during the Three Kingdoms period. The strongest Li Hongyang certainly belongs to Wei Guoliu, the second among Zhang Cao can be compared to the Wu Kingdom of Jiangdong Sun Quan, and the weakest Zhong Mingyi can only imitate Liu Bei and live in Sichuan. This time Chen Guangxu After joining, Zhong Mingyi jokingly called him Zhuge Kongming, but Zhong Mingyi would never consider himself to be like Adou, he wanted to be Cao Cao's master.
"Secretary Li, after investigation, the old man who died of starvation in Miaokeng Township was named Zhong Cuihua. He was from Shanlou Village in the township. He was 68 years old. His wife passed away three years ago. He had a son named Cai Mingyi, who was also a butcher. Butcher, his business is doing pretty well and he is not poor.
However, this man was addicted to gambling. Sometimes when he lost money at the mahjong table and had no money to pay, he would just cut off a piece of pork to make up for it. He often did this and got used to it, so the people in Miaokeng called him "Pork Ma".
Zhuma built a two-story brick building a few years ago, and the couple and their children moved into the new house. Her mother, Zhong Cuihua, lived alone in an old, dilapidated house with mud walls. In the past, her grandson Cai Gui delivered meals, but later Zhuma
Ma's wife Tian Yuling had a fierce quarrel with her mother-in-law Zhong Cuihua. Zhong Cuihua was so angry that she asked her son Cai Gui not to bring food to the old man, but Zhu Zhuma only knew gambling, and he didn't bother to care if my mother had no food to eat.
In the first few days, the neighbors couldn't stand it, and sometimes they would give Zhong Cuihua a few steamed buns and vegetables to eat, which meant her life was hanging there. Soon, several female students in the fifth grade of Shanlou Primary School in Lingtou found out about it and would eat it every day.
Go to Zhong Cuihua's place to help.
These children were very sensible and often saved their own rice for the elderly. However, the good times did not last long. Once Tian Yuling found out about the students, she slapped them several times and went to the teacher to slander them as students.
I went to her hometown to steal things and threatened to be arrested at the police station. So those female students who had done good things were frightened so that they never dared to go there again.
And Tian Yuling cursed - an old man only knows how to eat and drink, and the monthly medicine cost is more than ten yuan. That woman has long been looking forward to the death of her mother-in-law Zhong Cuihua. Just like this, the old man can't even get out of bed because of his physical inconvenience.
No. And her neighbors were just living below the food and clothing line, and they couldn't afford to provide her with every meal, so she starved to death in bed.
But on the day of the funeral, Pork Ma was in a state of glory, because Pork Ma heard that his mother was the prime minister of Kefu Ke. After her death, the family would be rich, and Mahjong and Pai Gow would be prosperous, etc. So she was given away in a hurry.
Arrived at the mountain.
Unexpectedly, there was a student named Liu Xuegang in Shanlou Village who was studying at No. 1 Middle School in Moxiang City. Liu Xuegang found out that Zhong Cuihua's body happened to be on the mountain that day. After returning to Moxiang City, he accidentally told the story and was overheard by Lei Yuzhen, a reporter from Moxiang Daily.
.
She immediately went to Miaokeng Township for an unannounced visit, and it was reported to the newspaper soon. However, Miaokeng Township is indeed too poor. Even the eighth-level farmers eat sweet potatoes and rice, and the per capita annual income is less than 150 yuan. One family has 78 to 80 yuan.
The total income of the population is just over a thousand yuan a year. If you get sick, you will starve to death. I heard that you can only eat pork once or twice a year. I only think about seafood and other things in my dreams.
well!
We didn’t do a good job! The Miaokeng Township Government must be responsible for this. I heard that Zhong Cuihua had no food at that time. The teachers of several students reported it to the Miaokeng Township Government, and the neighbors also complained. Unfortunately, no attention was paid to it, otherwise it would
There is no such tragedy anymore, alas..."
After finishing speaking, Director Wang Changran's nose also felt a little sore.
"Bang-bang!"
With two crisp sounds, Li Hongyang and Zhang Caozhong actually banged their fists on the table at the same time, causing all the standing committee members to look dumbfounded and wonder when the secretary and county magistrate would be so united in thinking and acting together.
"You bastard! A tiger's poison does not eat its seeds. I have no food to eat, but how can my son look down upon me? There must be a solution! There must be a solution. That evil daughter-in-law Tian Yuling was arrested and imprisoned by me. The Miaokeng Township Government is derelict in its duties, especially...
Director of the Civil Affairs Office, arrest me, you are so lawless. You have been clamoring for a raise all day long, complaining that the salary is low, etc., but you don’t do anything..."
Li Hongyang was so angry that his lips were trembling, he was really angry.
"I agree, it should be dealt with strictly and quickly," Zhang Caozhong said. All other members of the Standing Committee expressed their opinions, but generally they were in the direction of criticism. It is rare that this time the Standing Committee unified opinions so efficiently.
No one raised objections to abstention, etc.
"Secretary Li, I have an immature view on Miaokeng Township." Executive Deputy County Magistrate Xiao Junchen raised his head and said.
"Tell me and listen." Li Hongyang glanced at Xiao Junchen and nodded.
"Everyone knows that the economic aggregate of Linquan Town ranks third in the county, after Chengguan Town and Yuqian Town. However, the economic aggregate of Miaokeng Township, which is closely connected to it, is the lowest in the county.
People are starving to death even if they don't reach the first floor of Linquan Town. Although people are starving to death this time by chance, the temple town really has that tendency of starving to death. If the economy continues to fail, it may be a tragedy.
will happen.
The great man once said when meeting with New Zealand Prime Minister Lang Yi on March 28, 1986——
Our policy is to let some people and some regions get rich first in order to drive and help backward regions. It is an obligation for advanced regions to help backward regions."
Xiao Junchen paused here.
Kong Lizhu, Minister of the Propaganda Department, continued: "That's right! The great man also said during the process of listening to reports and conducting inspections in Tianjin from August 19 to 21, 1986 -
My consistent position is to let some people and some regions get rich first. The general principle is common prosperity. Some regions develop faster and drive most regions. This is a shortcut to accelerate development and achieve common prosperity.
Does Deputy County Magistrate Xiao mean to ask Linquan Town to drive the common prosperity of Miaokeng Township? This idea is very wonderful, you can try it."
"Haha! There's something new, old Xiao, keep talking." Zhang Caozhong also smiled. Although Zhang Caozhong doesn't like Executive Deputy County Magistrate Xiao Junchen, he is still very happy as long as he can make Miaokeng Township rich. Otherwise, he will fight
But the first thing he did was slap the county magistrate on the butt.
"If Linquan Town is just called to drive Miaokeng Township to common prosperity, Lao Qin and Lao Cai will definitely not be happy. You must know that even Linquan Town is a beggar compared to other big towns in other counties and cities, and they are still just in the situation of food and clothing.
If you are willing to give a piece of the pie to this huge black hole in Miaokeng Township, everyone here will probably not be happy either.
My idea is to simply use administrative means to evacuate Miaokeng Township and merge it into Linquan Town. Linquan Town has a population of 60,000 people, and Miaokeng Township has more than 40,000 people. In total, there are 100,000 people, which is a super big city.
town.
Anyway, this time Miaokeng Township has been named and criticized by three leaders of the municipal party committee, and the administrative team will probably have to be adjusted. Why don’t we use this opportunity of a major change to withdraw from the township and merge it into a town. The township party committee secretary was transferred to Lin Quan’s deputy mayor and was demoted by one.
The rank is quite worthy of them. The deputy secretary and deputy township mayor has been adjusted to Lin Quan's director and director of various departments. Those who are capable can compete for the deputy mayor, otherwise they will probably be dismissed according to the city's tone. This way
It is equivalent to saving their political lives, but I don't know if the city agrees with it. But I think as long as the true situation of the matter is reported, Secretary Yang and Mayor Luo will not be beaten to death.
Think about it, if Miaokeng Township becomes part of Linquan Town, then Qin Zhiming and Cai Dajiang of Linquan Town will have to improve the economy of Miaokeng Township. If they mess up, they will be spanked together, and
This time Miaokeng Township was criticized by Secretary Yang of the Municipal Party Committee. Lao Qin and Lao Cai were forced to go to Liangshan, and they couldn’t do anything even if they worked hard. But it was Lao Qin and Lao Cai who suffered from Lin Quan.”
Xiao Junchen said helplessly.
"Hahaha! Lao Qin and Lao Cai are really going to be roasted pigs. This method is innovative. Once merged with Miaokeng Township, the economy will definitely improve, and the original Linquan Town's level will probably drop a bit. But Lin Quan has a strong foundation.
, it’s okay to lower it a little, it won’t fall to the point where people starve to death! Let’s all discuss it. If it works, ask Lao Xiao to draw up a specific plan and submit it to the city to see if it can be passed. Otherwise, my family
The gate of Miaokeng Township has almost been trampled down by the cadres of Miaokeng Township. Recently, people in Miaokeng Township are in panic, and they are all afraid that their black hats will be gone..."
Li Hongyang set a general direction, and Zhang Caozhong and other members of the Standing Committee discussed it for a while. They felt that this method was feasible, but it would only cause hardship to Linquan Town. There was no other way. In order to make Secretary Yang of the Municipal Party Committee calm down, he had to find a scapegoat.
, this bad sheep is Linquanzhen.
The next morning, Ye Fan accompanied Professor Lan, Zhou Qiming and others to the cemetery. They found that the tomb was very damp. If he tried to remove the sarcophagus, he was afraid that the bones inside would be damaged.
Of course, if the bones in an ancient tomb like this were in a closed environment, they would be better preserved. If the environment is changed or exposed to the air, the bones may be damaged for more than ten days. Professor Lan, Zhou Qiming, and Gu Zewu were all worried. The three of them even
They all planned to hire a crane to lift the sarcophagus to the village before making further plans.
However, this method is obviously difficult to implement, because it is nearly 10 miles from Tianshui Bazi to the Gou Xiong Ya Long Tomb, and there is not even a small road. If you want to hang a coffin, you have to open a special road. It will not take a day or two.
What can be done mainly depends on who provides the funds.
Even if Zhou Qiming is the God of Wealth, he doesn't have the ability to spend a million dollars to make a way out. The main reason is that the owner of this sarcophagus is too mysterious, uncertain, and his status is not high enough. If it can be confirmed that he is a
The king's tomb said that he could not make millions with the influence of the three people. In order to protect the sarcophagus from damage, Yuyang County also sent four armed policemen to protect the sarcophagus in shifts.
The entire stone coffin is a palace-like shape that is two rooms wide and two rooms deep. The overall structure consists of 3 coffin roofs, 6 corridor columns, 8 coffin boards, and 3 bases, a total of 20 ordinary granite stones. Height
It is about 1.2 meters wide, about 1.5 meters wide, and about 2 meters long. The stone coffin is roughly carved with figures of people riding horses and shooting, catching animals, expressing their feelings about the landscape, fishing alone in the Hanjiang River, birds, animals, insects, fish, etc., although the workmanship is relatively rough.
, but Ye Fan thinks this is simply an incredible treasure.
Judging from the stone tablet, the person in the coffin must be a transcendent hermit, and his status should be high, but who is he? Could it be Lu Dingzong, but who is Lu Dingzong? Professor Lan and others checked the information,
There is no such person as Lu Dingzong.
The joints of the stones are very fine. The strange thing is that the joints are completely glued together, as if there are no seams. It is purely natural!
However, Ye Fan's sensitive eyes, which have been trained in health-preserving techniques, are holding the Yuan back to unity, and focusing on the ancestral point between the eyebrows, and using the master's technique of seeing from the sky, the earth, and hearing for a long time, Ye Fan can come to a conclusion.
It is similar to the previous inference.
The cracks in the stone should be made of a special natural or synthetic adhesive substance similar to stone milk. After being washed and moistened by the internal energy, it was fused with the stones of the sarcophagus. Ye Fan selected the base of the base.
The joint that is as thick as a finger.
Taking advantage of others' unpreparedness, he used the health-preserving technique. Soon, a trace of vitality silently moistened the adhesive material in the stone cracks from the holes in his hands. After ten minutes, Ye Fan stopped his hand and was surprised to find that the cracks had become larger.
, the special substance stuck to the cracks in the stone shrank, turning into powder and sticking to the palm of Ye Fan's hand. Ye Fan took a closer look and found that the adhesive was somewhat similar to transparent crystals of stone powder, and it felt like it on the hand.
It's particularly heavy, with a heavy feel like steel.
"What kind of material is this substance? Let's go back and study it. Maybe we can develop some new adhesives. This kind of substance will be the same as before without any chemical reaction without the nourishment of insider energy.
The material is the same. If it is used to glue some special machines or something, it will not be perfect..."
Ye Fan collected those specially bonded sand grains and looked at them with the naked eye, and found that the stone cracks could be seen with the naked eye. Of course, that small stone crack was too small, and Professor Lan and the others certainly couldn't find it.
"Lan Tianzhu, the foot-washing water is well prepared. Master, I'm just waiting for you to rub your feet with your white and tender hands, hehe..." Ye Fan was secretly proud, thinking of how Lan Tianzhu lowered his noble head.
So cool!
"Team Leader Ye, there are guests from out of town looking for you." At this moment, Er Yazi came panting and started shouting from afar.
"Who is the foreign guest?" Ye Fan asked casually.
"I don't know. They didn't tell me. The heads of the Wu family, Li family, and Ye family asked you to go back quickly. We have important matters to discuss." Er Yazi replied.
"Okay! Professor Lan, you guys explore first, I'll go back first." Ye Fan said hello and left. Professor Lan, Zhou Qiming, and Gu Zewu were almost obsessed. The three middle-aged people kept
He was rummaging around in the stone coffin in the center of the Dragon Tomb, trying to find a way to open the coffin. Ye Fan felt funny in his heart. If you don't find the right way, you might not be able to find a way to open the coffin in your life.
