reborn as an official

Chapter 440 No grass grows

Xu Li didn't wait for Xie Guangtian to speak, he glared at him and said, "If you don't know these things, then you are negligent! If you know these things, but see the situation getting worse and don't want to solve it, then you are incompetent!" Xie Guangtian broke out in a cold sweat.

"Xiaoming, you should immediately call the head of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, Sanitation Bureau, and Industry and Commerce Bureau, and ask him to bring relevant personnel to Fenghua Paper to hold an on-site office meeting. This time, we must thoroughly investigate the water quality of Fenghua Paper. Pollution and villagers’ sickness! You can call the Secretary of the National Day and ask him to personally bring people over to support Gong Qun and the others. You must control the scene and prevent those workers from causing trouble!”

Ren Xiaoming didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately called the leaders of the several units mentioned by Xu Li, asking them to bring relevant technical personnel to Fenghua Paper.No one dared to listen to Xu Li's order. No matter if they were socializing outside or busy with work, they immediately found someone and rushed to Qinjian Township with relevant equipment.

Zhao Hongjiang, Wu Cong and others saw that Xu Li acted resolutely, and the problem that had troubled the whole village for several years was finally resolved today.

Seeing that Ren Xiaoming had finished making the phone call, Xu Li said again: "Brother Zhao, I have asked the personnel of the relevant department to investigate, but I can't just listen to your one-sided words. Let's go to the scene of the sewage river you mentioned. Let's go to Wu Cong's house to see the child later."

"It should be, it should be!" Zhao Hongjiang hurriedly stood up and led the way.

Xu Li followed and left the brigade headquarters. Seeing that Xu Li was going to the scene, there were still people who dared to sit still, so they hurriedly followed behind.

After leaving the brigade headquarters and walking along the small road in the village for less than two miles, the pungent smell has already hit the nostrils before seeing the sewage river that Zhao Hongjiang mentioned.

Seeing that Xu Li and the others were covering their noses, Zhao Hongjiang smiled and said, "It's still winter. If it's summer, even the brigade headquarters we stayed in just now won't be able to escape. They dare not open the windows at all, otherwise we won't be able to stay there!"

Xu Li nodded, his face was ashen, but he didn't speak.Seeing Xu Li's downcast face, the other accompanying staff were all silent, they just covered their noses and lowered their heads as they walked, not daring to take a second look, for fear of arousing Xu Li's anger.

After walking for another mile, everyone finally came to the sewage river that Zhao Hongjiang was talking about.Because the sewage river is only two or three miles away from the sewage discharge outlet of Fenghua Paper, and the wastewater discharged from the factory is usually around [-] degrees, so the river has not frozen, and there is only a four-to-five-meter-wide river. , Brown-black wastewater is flowing along the river, and there are still a lot of white foam floating on the surface of the river.

Holding his nose, Xu Li carefully walked down the embankment, came to the edge of the river, and observed the river closely.Then he picked up a wooden stick from the bank and stirred it a few times in the dirty river water.There are only bark, sawdust, grass clippings, rotten weeds, rotten pulp and other dirt inside, but there is no grass in the vicinity, and there is no fish and shrimp.

Xu Li threw the wooden stick in his hand into the river, causing a splash of water.Xu Li turned around and went ashore, greeted Wu Cong, and said, "Let's go, let's visit your house!"

Of course Wu Cong also knew that Xu Li was angry at this time, but it was not because of himself, but because of Fenghua Paper.Although Wu Cong was a little scared, he was not worried. Instead, he was a little happy. I hope that Secretary Xu will shut down that harmful Fenghua Zhilai in a fit of anger this time, so that he can stop production completely.

Under the leadership of Wu Cong, the crowd walked for nearly 10 minutes before arriving at a small village.It is the slack season in winter, and it is approaching the end of the year. In the countryside, there should be laughter and joy, but when we enter the village, everyone finds that there is an unspeakable weirdness in the village, but why? Unable to speak.

After entering the village, Xu Li suddenly asked Wu Cong, "Why doesn't anyone in your village raise chickens or dogs?"

Hearing Xu Li's question, everyone realized that the village was too quiet, not to mention human voices, not even a chicken crowing or a dog barking, not to mention the sparrows that are common in other places, even a mouse is too quiet. It's hard to live, no wonder the atmosphere is so depressing.

After hearing Xu Li's question, Wu Cong couldn't help but sighed with emotion: "People in the village have to go more than ten miles to fetch water, so there is still water for those animals! As for the water in the well, the animals drink it a few days later. It won’t work, so no one in our village has raised those things for several years!”

For a while, everyone was silent, only the sound of footsteps of "creak, creak" was heard as everyone stepped on the snow.

After a short walk into the village, he came to Wu Cong's house.Wu Cong's house has five large tile-roofed houses, with neat red tiles, milky white wall bricks, and light green plastic-steel windows, which look very grand.

But when everyone pushed open the door and entered the house, they found that this big tile-roofed house was really like gold and jade, and it was full of mischief.The walls in the house were not even painted white, and the dark gray cement walls made the whole house look very stuffy. There was not even a piece of pit leather on the pit, and it was only covered with a layer of worn-out plastic sheeting.

Wu Cong also saw everyone's doubts and explained: "This house was built with Fenghua Paper's compensation to my father. I wanted to build the house first, and clean up the house when I had money. But I didn't expect After a few years, I just saved about [-] yuan. Before I could build a house, Huzi became ill. That money was not enough for Huzi to live in the hospital for ten days and half a month. Now my family owes tens of thousands of yuan to relatives and friends. I don't know when I will be able to repay the debt!"

At this time, Wu Cong's daughter-in-law, who was sitting on the kang and coaxing the child, saw so many people coming at home at once, she lifted the quilt covering her feet, and went down to greet everyone.Xu Li hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the child is important, so don't go down to the ground, we just come to see the child." As he spoke, Xu Li ignored the dust on the kang, and moved closer to the child, only to see that the child's eyes were still closed , sound asleep.But he frowned from time to time, it seemed that the child did not get rid of the torment of the serious illness in his dream.

Xu Li looked at the child and said pitifully, "This child is really pitiful!" After speaking, he asked Wu Cong, "Did you go to the provincial hospital for an examination? What did the hospital say, is there a high chance of recovery?"

As soon as Wu Cong mentioned the child, he couldn't control his emotions, and said excitedly: "We went to the Second Provincial Hospital to check the child, and stayed there for almost a month. The doctor said that the child is still in the early stage of liver cancer. If the operation is done in time and the treatment is combined with the treatment, there is still some chance of recovery, but this month has cost more than 4 yuan, and we have borrowed everything that relatives and friends can borrow." Speaking of this, Wu Cong suddenly "thumped". Kneeling down in front of Xu Li, he cried and said: "Secretary Xu, as long as you can save the child, you can ask me to go up the mountain of knives or into the frying pan, please save this child!"
