Chapter 1523 Chengguan Town

After finishing packing, Zuo Yamei bowed slightly to Li Yongxun: "Senior, I'm leaving. I will be back to work before noon tomorrow."

Zuo Yamei walked out of the gate of the police station dormitory. At this time, she had already put on a black police cloak without any logo—because this kind of "Song style" cloak was very similar to that worn by monks. That's why people call it that.In fact, it is made according to the style of the British police cloak. It is made of imported British thin cloth, which has a certain effect of heat preservation and waterproof, and can keep out the wind and cold in winter.

For Zuo Yamei, who is wearing a short skirt, this dress is very suitable, not only can she keep out the cold - even if she stays in a maid school or a liberal arts college for a long time, she still can't care about the temperature like some female heads It is said that even in the ice and snow, the female chiefs can walk around in short skirts without fear.And it can cover part of the legs and feet.The length of this skirt is really short. In Lingao, the core area ruled by the Australians, the shortest hem of the skirts of the naturalized women has reached the knees, but the hem of the skirt on Zuo Yamei is above the knees, revealing a little bit. thigh.Even after wearing it more than once, the coolness on her thighs still made her subconsciously pull down the skirt from time to time.

When Zuo Yamei received this dress for the first time, she felt a little bit guilty in her heart - when watching some "internal reference films", many "Australian women" in it wore such clothes, but wearing such a short skirt in Daming is shocking , even in Lingao.

However, as a student of the College of Arts and Sciences, she has no choice—although legally she is no longer a slave of the general office, but at the same time she also lost the opportunity to become the life secretary of the chief executive. For Lou's Zuo Yamei, this is a new opportunity.

She got on the subway, and as a "cadre" among the naturalized people, of course she took the second-class car.It's six o'clock in the evening, which is the rush hour for commuting. However, she took the downbound route to Nanbao. There are few residential areas along the route, so there are not many passengers, and there are even fewer people in the second-class carriage—— Almost all naturalized people.

Zuo Yamei attracted the attention of the whole car as soon as she got on the bus. Although the passengers couldn't see her "uniform", the woolen police cloak she was wearing was a rare thing in Lingao, not to mention her matching Different temperament.A few young girls began to discuss in whispers, their eyes couldn't help showing envious expressions.Zuo Yamei enjoys this feeling and feels embarrassed at the same time.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zuo Yamei couldn't help pulling the hem of the cloak again, making sure to cover her skirt and thighs.

Because of her skirt, she didn't dare to sit down, so she could only lean on the railing by the door, looking at the scenery outside the window, silently reviewing what the teacher taught the last time she went to class, while humming in a voice so weak that it was almost inaudible Tune, while simulating the movement with fingers.

"Chengguan Town is here, Chengguan Town is here." With the voice of the conductor announcing the station, the little train slowly stopped on the platform.Chengguan Town is the county seat of Lingao, which is a big station on the downlink, and Zuo Yamei got off the bus.

Zuo Yamei got off the train, the platform was brightly lit by gas lamps, but there were only a dozen people on the huge platform, and the bored station attendant yawned behind the yellow line.

The station here is well-built, but few people get on and off-the passenger flow is not as high as Nanbao Station, the southern terminal of the city railway.

Chengguan Town has now become the least existing of the three main towns in the county. With the transfer of the power center to Bairen City, the rapid economic development of Dongmen City and Bopu, Chengguan was originally only an administrative center. The town gradually fell into the cold.Even in terms of prosperity, it is not as good as the residences of some commune departments.

Although the Lingao County Yamen is still in place, it actually has no symbolic meaning.Although the set of things in the Daming County Yamen still exists, and there is still a county magistrate in the Yamen "acting", but everyone knows that the real power is the "Civil Affairs Office" that has hung a sign at the entrance of a small red brick building in Dongmen City. Lingao County Office of the People's Committee".

Apart from this purely decorative county government, the only important organs in the city are the "Grain Collection Bureau" and the Advisory Bureau.The only big business left is "Runshitang". In fact, this Runshitang has opened a new head office in Dongmen City long ago, and even the owner's family has moved to Dongmen City.The pharmaceutical factory has not been in the city for a long time, and staying in this "shop" in the city is purely to show "not forgetting the root".

It is neither an administrative center nor an economic center. There is no business or job opportunities. The small number of merchants and residents in the county began to move out in large numbers, and soon there was a trend of hollowing out.

Within a few years, the county town, which was not very lively at first, became even more desolate. Even Xianqian Street, the only street that could be regarded as "prosperous" in the past, became deserted. The original permanent population of this county town was only 4000 people. , there are a large number of vacant official houses and wasteland in the city, and now there are even houses in places like Xianqian Street that are gradually collapsing due to no one living there.

The common people ran away, and the rich gentry who had been living in the city began to find it inconvenient to live in this dead place: although the roads in the city have been repaired and the garbage has been cleaned up.However, compared with Dongmen City and other places, the municipal construction in the city is heaven and earth: because the roads are narrow, there are no public carriages passing through the city; there is no sewer, and the sanitary facilities that have been used in large quantities in Dongmen City can only be used as decorations in the city , since there is no sewer, the laying of gas pipelines has not been put on the agenda, whether it is gas street lamps or household gas lamps, there are no such things in the county.

The worst thing is that there is almost no business in the city now, except for buying medicine, almost everything has to be bought in Dongmen City.But the big gentry have seen all kinds of enjoyment in the residences of the new rich in Dongmen City, and they can no longer bear the original life.Many people have moved their families to the newly developed high-end residential area along the Wenlan River in Dongmen City with all kinds of infrastructure.

The population keeps flowing out, so while the housing prices and land prices in Dongmen City, Bopu, and even Nanbao, which is next to Li District, are all rising, the real estate prices in Chengguan Town are falling all the way.

This just caters to the needs of the general office to expand the administrative office area.

Although this is a dead corner in terms of economic development, after all, the geographical location is superior and the transportation is convenient.There is no industry around, less hustle and bustle, more tranquility.The county seat has a high wall, which is very beneficial for internal control and defense.

The foreign intelligence agency took a fancy to the benefits here at the earliest and set up training institutions in the city. Later, several agencies set up branches in the city to divert the increasingly large institutions.

Now the general office is going to use this piece of land to solve the problem of resettlement of the growing government agencies.For the convenience of fortification, the area of ​​Bairen City was relatively small.In the past, the organization was small, and a small two-story building could accommodate the next department. Now the family is big and the business is expanding, and the organization is expanding rapidly, and there is not enough office space.

If it is to be expanded, it will inevitably increase the area of ​​Bairen City.However, Dongmen City is developing rapidly. Originally, Bairen City and Dongmen City still maintained a considerable distance. Now Dongmen City's expansion momentum has a tendency to swallow Bairen City.In addition to urban construction, the expansion of industrial areas and intensive farms has also devoured a large amount of surrounding land.The expansion plan of Bairen City has been discussed many times between the general office and the construction company, but it has not been finalized because of the unsatisfactory surrounding environment.Many institutions could not be expanded in Bairen City, and all or part of them have been relocated to Dongmen City or other places. This not only created a big problem for the inner security work due to the shortage of troops, but also made the institutions too scattered, causing inconvenience in work coordination .

After several discussions, the General Office, the Planning Institute and the Construction Corporation decided that choosing the county town as the most economical and appropriate choice for the Xinde Green Zone.Some government agencies can be relocated to the county seat, and the new residential area that the elders are eagerly looking forward to can also be located in the city.Finally, a new plan was reached.The county office is responsible for the specific demolition work.

The official land and government buildings in Lingao County originally occupied quite a large area, and most of the residents have moved out in recent years, and there are not many remaining residents in the city.The county office has mastered seven or eight tenths of the houses and land in the county without much trouble.Although the demolition and reconstruction work has not officially started, some government agencies and units that could not find a place to live have already moved in.

The place Zuo Yamei is going to is exactly such an institution.She got out of the station—Chengguan Town Station was located at the original city gate, and there was a corridor directly connected to the square in front of the city gate.

The gates of Lingao County are no longer closed at night, but the security is much stricter than before.Soldiers from the Lingao Garrison Battalion stood guard at the gate of the city, and anyone who entered or exited had to show their ID.Zuo Yamei showed her work permit and access pass, and went in without a word.

The street is brightly lit by a temporary torch cage - there is no gas street lamp here, and this can only be used as a temporary substitute.Right now, Xianqian Street has been dug up to build a sewer, and without night lighting, accidents are easy to happen.Zuo Yamei walked carefully on a temporary sidewalk under the firelight.The county town was deserted, except for the torch cages on the street, most of the buildings on the side of the road were dark and unlit, and the surroundings were eerily quiet, not at all as lively as Dongmen City.This is not the first time she has come here, and she also knows that the surrounding area is tightly guarded and is the "green zone" with the highest security level, but she is still secretly apprehensive walking alone on the almost ruined street.

Fortunately, the distance was not long. After walking for seven or eight minutes, she turned a corner at a place marked by a lantern, and a brightly lit courtyard appeared in front of her.
