pinnacle of power

Seeing Liu Qingyu's face getting more and more ugly, Hong Sanjin's heart began to sink, especially since he could feel a strong murderous aura from Liu Qingyu's body, this murderous aura was like frost, making his whole body Chill, Hong Sanjin is a person with a very flexible mind. He knows that he must not offend Liu Qingyu, who has achieved this position at a young age, so he rolled his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Zhen Chang, why don't you use my private car, although the car is a bit broken, it can still be used."

Although Liu Qingyu was furious, he didn't intend to explode immediately. He knew very well that he had just arrived in Guanshan Town, and everything had to start from scratch. What Jin said made Liu Qingyu slightly relieved, he nodded slightly and said: "Okay, then Director Hong will work hard. You go and prepare the car and a big speaker by the way, and we will gather downstairs in 15 minutes. After finishing speaking, Liu Qingyu once again fixed his eyes on the map on the table and began to think.Hong Sanjin wisely left immediately.

However, although Liu Qingyu calmed down his anger for the time being, he has already remembered this matter in his heart. If he has a chance, he will definitely bring this round back, because Liu Qingyu has never surrendered to anyone Pass.

Fifteen minutes later, after Liu Qingyu and Hong Sanjin met, they got into Hong Sanjin's private car. Hong Sanjin asked, "Mayor Liu, where are we going?"

Liu Qingyu said without hesitation: "Go to Malan Village, which is relatively close to Guanshan Reservoir."

The car galloped through the rain, drove towards Malan Village amidst lightning and thunder, and stopped in front of the house of the village head, Tian Laoshuan.

After the two got out of the car, they pushed open the door of the village chief's house and walked in.

At this moment, Tian Laoshuan, the village head in his 50s with a wrinkled face, is sitting in the main room playing mahjong with several people.

Seeing Liu Qingyu and the others walk in, he was taken aback.Immediately, Tian Laoshuan saw Hong Sanjin, the director of the government office, and immediately stood up with a smile on his face and said, "Oh, isn't this Director Hong? Why did you come to my house on a rainy day? Do you have any instructions?"

While speaking, although Tian Laoshuan was all smiles on his face, he didn't show any respect for Hong Sanjin in his tone.

Several other people playing mahjong and the bystanders also burst into laughter.

Hong Sanjin knew that he had no prestige in the eyes of Tian Laoshuan and other village chiefs, so he could only look at Tian Laoshuan with a serious face and said, "Old Tian, ​​the person next to me is the newly appointed Mayor Liu of our Guanshan Town. Mayor Liu personally instructed me to do the evacuation and resettlement work and the reinforcement and protection work of the Guanshan Reservoir dam in your villages. How is your work preparation now?" Hong Sanjin and Tian Laoshuan spoke in a completely business-like manner. tone of voice.

After Tian Laoshuan finished listening, he just glanced at Liu Qingyu faintly, and found that Liu Qingyu was just a kid in his early 20s. When he looked at Liu Qingyu, there was a faint smile on his face, but deep in his eyes was hidden With a strong look of disdain, Lao Tiantou has been the village chief for many years and has seen many things. In his opinion, most officials like Liu Qingyu are the second generation of officials or the second generation of rich people who have come down to be gilded. He was quickly transferred away, and he had no ability at all, but the old Tiantou knew very well that such a person must not be offended, so he smiled and stretched out his hand to Liu Qingyu and said, "Oh, it's Mayor Liu, really. I didn't expect you to be so young, and it's raining heavily, I don't know what instructions you have to come here in the rain?"

Liu Qingyu saw that Tian Laoshuan was still pretending to be confused in front of him until now, so he could only smile wryly in his heart. He knew very well that farmers have the wisdom of farmers, and Tian Laoshuan is definitely an old fox after living so old. Shuan shook his hands vigorously and said anxiously: "Mr. Tian, ​​to be honest, I'm here to persuade you to immediately organize the villagers to prepare for evacuation at any time so as to raise manpower to strengthen the Guanshan Reservoir dam. I have already got a Information, our Guanshan Town is very likely to have continuous rainstorms in the past few days, and the situation is very critical. I hope you can cooperate with my work."

Liu Qingyu didn't go around in circles with Tian Laoshuan, and went straight to the point.

It's time to see the real chapter!

After listening to Liu Qingyu's words, Tian Laoshuan's complexion suddenly sank, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became dignified.All eyes were on Tian Laoshuan.

Tian Laoshuan was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his head to look at Liu Qingyu and said, "Mayor Liu, it's not that I don't support your work, but that I dare not support your work."

Liu Qingyu was taken aback: "Why?"

Tian Laoshuan said in a deep voice: "Mayor Liu, you may not know that when you first came here, the villagers of our Malan village were tortured by the town leaders a few years ago. A few years ago, the town organized our villagers to plant greenhouse mushrooms. , said that as long as we planted it, we could make a lot of money, and the town said that there was a special trading company coming to our side to make purchases. The town can make a guarantee. We thought the words of the town leaders were credible, so we Each family pooled money to set up several mushroom greenhouses. A year later, the mushroom harvest was bumper, but the company that harvested the mushrooms that the town said never came. The so-called guarantee in the town was also gone, and we suffered heavy losses. The town organized us to plant apple trees again, saying that the town would be responsible for the sales and ensured that there would be no problems. This time, many people in our village were unwilling to plant apple trees. As a result, the town said that if we did not plant fruit trees, we would not issue various agricultural subsidies in the future. In desperation, we can only plant fruit trees. As a result, in the past few years, the apple harvest season has come, and there are big red apples all over the mountains and plains. Shang, Dili, Mayor Liu, you said that such things happened one after another, can we still trust the words of the town leaders? And you said that you want me to organize the villagers to prepare for evacuation. Do you think it is possible to organize the evacuation? Moreover, the weather forecast says that tomorrow will only be cloudy, and at most there will be heavy rain in some areas today, so the reservoir will not be in any danger at all. So Mayor Liu, please forgive me, I cannot accept your instructions."

After hearing Tian Laoshuan's words, Liu Qingyu's heart was tangled for a while. He never thought that such a thing would be done in the town. He looked at Hong Sanjin next to him with some questioning eyes. Hong Sanjin nodded with a wry smile full of embarrassment, proving that what Tian Laoshuan said was true.

Liu Qingyu was silent for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, Mr. Tian, ​​since you have so many difficulties, I understand, and I don't force you, but I hope you can borrow the big speaker in my village to use it. Remind the villagers, let everyone have a mental preparation, do you think it is okay?"

What Liu Qingyu said was very sincere, Tian Laoshuan naturally couldn't refute Liu Qingyu's face, nodded, took Liu Qingyu to the house, turned on the small radio, asked Liu Qingyu to sit beside him, and signaled Liu Qingyu Yu can speak.

Liu Qingyu took the microphone, pondered for a while, and then began to talk. He talked about the weather information he had obtained about Guanshan Town, and talked about the possible pressure on the Guanshan Reservoir in case of continuous heavy rain. Let’s talk about the flood situation and crisis that the village may suffer if the Guanshan Reservoir dam breaks down. Finally, Liu Qingyu told the villagers that Qin Ruijie, deputy secretary of the town committee, has led people to start setting up tents near Tianwangling in the east of the town. It is suggested that the villagers who want to transfer can go to visit relatives and friends, or go to Tianwangling for resettlement.After finishing speaking, Liu Qingyu stood up and looked at Tian Laoshuan and said: "Cunchang Tian, ​​I know that my new mayor does not have much prestige in the eyes of your village party secretary and village chief, but I want to tell you, what I said Every sentence is true. I sincerely hope that the villagers will not be hurt in the face of such a big disaster as the flood. I will go to other villages to publicize in a while. After the publicity, I will always be stationed on the dam. I hope Mr. Tiancun, you can carefully consider my opinion. I will take my leave.” After speaking, Liu Qingyu walked out with his head held high and his chest held high.

The bean-sized raindrops hit Liu Qingyu's head and body. Liu Qingyu didn't dodge at all, and walked directly towards the car.Hong Sanjin followed Liu Qingyu tightly holding an umbrella.

Looking at Liu Qingyu's leaving back, Tian Laoshuan fell into deep thought: "Could it be that this new mayor really wants to do something for our common people?"

At this moment, Liu Qingyu who got into the car was not very angry. Although Tian Laoshuan's tone was not very friendly, Liu Qingyu understood him very well, because he knew in his heart that although Tian Laoshuan was a little disrespectful to him, he Such an attitude is responsible to the people in the village. As a leader, he must have such a tolerant mind.

After Hong Sanjin got into the car, he immediately said to Liu Qingyu: "Mayor Liu, don't be angry, these village chiefs and party secretaries are all thieves, and it's hard to use them if there is no benefit. Why don't we go back first ?”

Liu Qingyu shook his head, "It's normal to encounter some difficulties in doing things. Let's go to the next village and go to Meng Erzhuang next door. We will continue to work as the village chief and villagers. At least let the villagers know that Tianwangling There are tents over there, and if there is a crisis, the villagers will not be at a loss, so they have psychological preparations and expectations."

Hong Sanjin was very depressed, and felt very uncomfortable about being arrested, but he could only bite the bullet and go into battle. Who let himself be the director of the town government office.

Next, Hong Sanjin took Liu Qingyu around all 25 administrative villages one by one. After the tour was over, it was already past 4 o'clock in the afternoon. They didn't even eat lunch, and Liu Qingyu's voice Hoarse.After visiting the last village, Hong Sanjin looked at Liu Qingyu and said, "Mayor Liu, should we go back?"

Liu Qingyu waved his hand, "I can't go back. Since none of the villages are willing to respond to my call, then I will go into battle shirtless. If they don't come, I will be responsible for strengthening the dam alone. I will do my best. .”

Later, Liu Qingyu took Hong Sanjin and himself to the town to buy shovels, iron picks, sacks, raincoats and other supplies, and asked Hong Sanjin to drive straight to the Guanshan Reservoir Dam.

After arriving at the dam, Liu Qingyu and Hong Sanjin patrolled around. Liu Qingyu found a section of the river where the dam seemed to be relatively fragile, and began to drive piles and move sand and soil.

The heavy rain kept falling, and the raincoat couldn't stop the pouring rain. Liu Qingyu and Hong Sanjin's bodies were all wet. Later, Hong Sanjin couldn't bear it anymore, so Liu Qingyu asked him to go back to the car to rest. And he himself continued to struggle on the dam.

As the night gradually darkened, Liu Qingyu's body gradually became hazy.Sweat and rain were mixed on Liu Qingyu's face, and he couldn't tell the difference anymore. Liu Qingyu's hands and feet had already turned white from the rain, but he was still holding on.

The river water on the dam has been rising continuously.

At this moment, in Malan Village, which is the closest to the dam, Tian Laoshuan, the village head, found that the heavy rain had been raining for a whole day, and it still hadn't stopped. He couldn't sit still, so he immediately greeted his family members The eldest son Tian Xiaoshuan and several young people in the village went to the dam together.

Tian Laoshuan knew the situation of the dam well, and found the fragile section of embankment that Liu Qingyu was reinforcing without wasting any effort. I was taken aback.

At this time, Tian Xiaoshuan suddenly shouted: "Dad, the water level has been rising, and it is less than 1 meter away from the warning water level. The water level of Guanshan River is more than a meter away from before it rained. The situation is a little dangerous .”

Tian Laoshuan had discovered this situation a long time ago. At this moment, he began to think of what Liu Qingyu said, and his brows frowned tightly.Up to now, he has not seen Liu Qingyu's shadow. In his opinion, Liu Qingyu's statement that he would personally station on the dam at that time was probably just empty talk.

At this moment, a sound of footsteps came from a distance, mixed with the sound of pattering feet when walking in muddy water, and the sound of heavy panting was gradually audible, and Tian Xiaoshuan's flashlight shone in the direction of the sound.

Under the light, Liu Qingyu walked over with difficulty, carrying a large bag of gravel on his shoulders.

Tian Laoshuan's gaze also followed the light, and everyone was stunned.They never expected that Liu Qingyu would actually keep his promise. Seeing the wooden piles under the dam and the reinforced dike section piled up with dozens of sacks, everyone was shocked.

There was a hint of disbelief in Tian Laoshuan's eyes. He did not expect that the newly appointed mayor had no airs at all and was doing things in obscurity.

Liu Qingyu also saw Tian Laoshuan and the others at this time, but he did not speak, but silently put the sack away, picked up another empty sack, and walked towards the other side of the dam to fill the gravel go.

At this moment, the rain is falling more urgently, Liu Qingyu's body will slip after taking a few steps, and the river below the dam is also rising crazily, a crisis may happen at any time.However, regarding this situation, Liu Qingyu didn't seem to notice it at all, and was still busy silently.
