Great changes in the countryside

Chapter 409 Farewell to Second Sister
After discussion and discussion, everyone performed their own duties, each had something to do, and clarified their responsibilities.

It was the last day of August when the flood had receded and the water had receded into the river.

On September [-], the village primary school started on time.

That same day, both telephone and broadcast lines were back to normal.

Only the electricity is still under repair.

Chen Yang called the village first, and then Tong Siping in the county.

Tong Siping specifically told Chen Yang that the external land transportation has been opened, especially the road leading to the provincial capital.

Tong Siping asked Chen Yang when his second sister would report to Zhejiang University.

Chen Yang said the sooner the better.

Tong Siping asked about the number of tickets and told Chen Yang to hang up the phone first and wait for him for a while.

After a while, Tong Siping called back and said that he had bought four long-distance bus tickets to the provincial capital the day after tomorrow for him.

Tong Siping also said that at the moment of post-disaster reconstruction, it is best for Chen Yang not to leave.

Chen Yang told Tong Siping that he would not go to the provincial capital.

Then, according to the phone number on the admission notice, Chen Yang asked his second sister to call the Admissions Office of Zhejiang University, report her family name, and explain the situation.

The school said that in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, someone would pick them up at the long-distance bus station near Wulin Gate in the provincial capital.

Afternoon of September [-]nd.

Chen Yang hired a motor boat to take the second sister and her luggage to the county seat.

The third sister and third brother were also going there, and they were going to report to the No. [-] Middle School in the county.

There are also the second younger brother Chen Bing, Shunzi and Xiao Button. The three of them will escort the second younger sister to the provincial capital and send them to Zhejiang University.

The happiest person, of course, is Little Button.

When we arrived at the county seat, everyone went ashore.

First go to the transportation company opposite the coach station and book three rooms.

Then, Chen Yang went to see Tong Siping, and the others sent the third sister and third brother to report to the No. [-] Middle School in the county.

Chen Yang rode a bicycle to the county government compound.

There are guards at the entrance of the county government, as well as duty officers in the reception room.

Chen Yang took out his certificate and was about to register, but the old man on duty waved his hand to stop him, "I know you, your name is Chen Yang, the acting village head of Chenjia Village, Hengfeng Township. You go in, and I will register for you."

Chen Yang thanked him, took out his cigarettes, and gave the old man two.

As he walked in, Chen Yang thought to himself, why does the old man at the gate of the county government know me?

Chen Yang didn't know that just last night, the provincial TV station broadcast a report about Chenjia Village.

At the same time, provincial daily newspapers, regional daily newspapers and local TV stations also published and broadcast reports on Chenjiacun.

The provincial TV station's special report lasted for an hour, and the one involving Chenjia Village lasted for four to ten minutes.

In the four ten-minute period, only two ten minutes were dedicated to interviewing Chen Yang and reporting on his family.

Chen Yang didn't know that he was already famous.

Not only him, but also his second sister, who appeared on the TV camera for less than 1 minute, also became a celebrity at Zhejiang University.

Just walking in the corridor of the county government compound, the oncoming people were all looking at Chen Yang seriously.

After entering Tong Siping's office, Tong Siping explained the whole story, and Chen Yang suddenly realized.

"Ashamed, ashamed." Chen Yang smiled sincerely.

"The role of the report has been shown." Tong Siping pointed to Chen Yang, and said with a smile: "Both provincial leaders and regional leaders have called. Advanced advanced, advanced role, advanced strength. These three sentences Words are a compliment from your superiors."

Chen Yang asked, "Uncle Tong, what instructions does the county have regarding our Chenjia Village?"

"I, I am in charge of the reconstruction of your Chenjia Village."

Chen Yang looked surprised, and stretched out his hand to count the money, "How much do you plan to give us?"

"Stinky boy, you can't leave money in every sentence."

"Hehe, I didn't say money."

Tong Siping asked with a smile, "Your village cadres donated 9 to [-] yuan, isn't it enough for you?"

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, "Uncle Tong, this is our secret, how did you know?"

"Haha... Do you think that the people sent by the county are all for food? They heard from the villagers, but they knew that you didn't want to publicize this, so they kept it secret for you. They didn't tell the reporters, and they only told me when they came back. one person."

Chen Yang breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, money is spent when it is used. Almost all the old houses in our village were destroyed this time. We did preliminary calculations. Without 50, the reconstruction task cannot be completed at all."

"That's a big tone." Tong Siping said: "Normal relief funds, your village can get about 10 yuan. Make it a bit special, and I can help you talk, and you can get an extra 10 yuan. Combining the two aspects, you can get 20 reconstruction funds."

"Uncle Tong, please do me a favor. I want 40, at least the least, and you have to give us 30."

Tong Siping waved his hand again with a smile, "If you give more, I will make a mistake."

Chen Yang just gave up, of course he couldn't let his Uncle Tong make mistakes.

Tong Siping took out four tickets.

Chen Yang took out the money.

Tong Siping did not charge for the fare.

Chen Yang insisted on giving it, and Tong Siping accepted it.

"Uncle Tong, I'm going to run around in the area and talk to Lao Fan, can you ask him to approve some money?"

Tong Siping nodded with a smile, "Don't tell me, it's a good way. If you are stubborn, he will give you some approval, and he will never let you go away empty-handed."

"Then I'll go tomorrow."

Tong Siping shook his head, "It's useless to go too early, it will have the opposite effect. I suggest you, wait until the other funds are in place before you go to the district to find Lao Fan."

"I listen to you, Uncle Tong."

Tong Siping looked at his watch, got up and said: "I'm going to a meeting. It's a pity this time, the other leaders are not here. Next time, next time I will let you meet other leaders."

Chen Yang bid farewell and left the county government compound in a good mood.

The second brother and the others, after sending the third sister and the third brother to report, came out together and waited for Chen Yang in the lobby of Wenlin Hotel.

Chen Yang invites everyone to have a big meal.

The last time the second sister was admitted to university, Chen Yang and the others lived in Wenlin Hotel, and Chen Yang had already gotten acquainted with the chef of the restaurant.

The big meal cost Chen Yang 37 yuan, and even without drinking, Chen Yang felt that the prices had really risen.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Chen Yang sent his third sister and third brother back to school.

The third sister and the third brother were reluctant to leave their second sister, and they pulled the second sister and whispered a lot.

Then, Chen Yang led the others across most of the county and returned to the transportation company's guest house.

There are three rooms, one for the second sister, one for Shunzi and Xiaokouzi, one for Chen Yang and the second brother.

"Brother, you sleep, I will guard."

Chen Yang was curious, "What are you guarding?"

"There are two things to keep in mind. The law and order is not good, and with the typhoon, the guest house is not safe."

Chen Yang nodded, "It makes sense."

"Also, get on the bus at 05:30 tomorrow morning, and wake up at least 04:30, I'm afraid I'll oversleep."

Chen Yang smiled, "I'll watch, you sleep."

"I will watch the first half of the night, and my brother will watch the second half of the night."

Chen Yang handed a cattail leaf fan to his second brother, "Go and guard outside the door of the second sister's room."

I got into the mosquito net and fell asleep.
