Bottom line

"I heard that the government is going to bring Japanese businessmen up the mountain today, and they won't be able to get in if the bridge is demolished." Zhao Yongli pointed to the single-plank bridge, and then looked at the villagers who were united as one, with a complicated expression.

Liu Jun frowned, feeling that demolishing bridges to prevent foreign businessmen from entering the village was not an option, and said, "Old man, confronting the government like this is not an option either?"

Zhao Yongli coughed twice, and said: "I don't care, anyway, this mountain is going to be leased to you, Ah Jun. The villagers will never allow the mountain to be leased to foreign businessmen, let alone Japanese businessmen."

"Well, old man, there is something to discuss. The government serves the people, so we should be able to talk about it." Liu Jun felt bad, and Zhao Yongli insisted on entrusting the forest to him. Such a situation would definitely offend Japan who wanted to entrust the forest to him. The local officials of the businessman, from this point of view, I am afraid that the investment in tourism projects in Tujia mountain villages will not go well, and the prospects are worrying.

Zhao Yongli shook his head: "Ah Jun, there is nothing to talk about, not to mention that the conditions of the Japanese devils are very strict, and the villagers are not willing to deal with the Japanese, besides, this land has already signed an agreement with you. If a woman doesn't marry a second husband, how can she subcontract to the Japanese?"

Liu Jundao: "Old man, what you said is reasonable, but now attracting investment is the government's most important task. Old man, you and the villagers have hatred for the Japanese, but they cannot resist the people's government of our country. No, I am also an investor, so I can I talked with the local government. Just one thing, I wonder if the agreement signed by your village and me is valid? Does this mountain village collectively have the right to lease it?"

Zhao Yongli nodded affirmatively: "This piece of Tujia Mountain is the collective land of the village. The village committee has the right to rent it out. Of course, it has no right to sell it out. However, people from the Qingfeng Town Government said that although the village committee has the right to lease out the collective mountain land, it is still not enough to develop tourism. The project still needs to be approved by the local government, and there is a clear opinion on it saying that to invigorate the economy, foreign investment must be introduced, saying that the forest leasing agreement signed with you by our village is invalid, and that it has not been filed with the government, are you angry?"

"It's quite irritating, and it's quite bluffing. It's obvious that someone above wants to designate this tourism project to a Japanese businessman. Invigorating the local economy can attract investment, but there is no hard and fast rule that only foreign investment must be introduced. There is a way in it."

"That's right, I don't care anyway, so I'll admit it. First, I'll sign a land lease agreement with you, and this mountain will be leased to you. Except for you, Ah Jun, no one else should think about this mountain."

Just as Liu Jun and Zhao Yongli were talking, the four sturdy young men who were loyal, brave, benevolent and righteous, who had just carried the tobacco, wine, rice oil and other food that Liu Jun brought into the village, came back and asked the old village head, Zhao Yongli, whether to demolish the bridge now.

Liu Jun turned to Zhao Yongli and said: "Old man, the bridge really doesn't need to be demolished. The demolition of the bridge blocks the people coming, but also cuts off the retreat of the villagers. It is not advisable. I am here now? I am here to negotiate with local officials and Japanese businessmen. It’s not too late to dismantle it if the talks fail.”

Zhao Yongli sighed: "Okay, we can talk if we can. Except for you, anyway, our Tujia Mountain villagers will not agree to contract the mountain forest to others."

Liu Jun looked around and said, "Okay, old man, let the folks withdraw, everyone is old, don't get tired, and it's not good to resist openly like this, I'm here Wait for them by the bridge."

"Folks, you go home first, and you take it with you. If there is something urgent, I will knock the gong. We can rest assured that Ah Jun is here." Zhao Yongli smiled slightly on his wrinkled face , leaving four strong young men who are loyal, brave, benevolent and righteous to accompany them, and all the other villagers went back to the mountain.

As soon as the villagers left, Liu Jun's nervous heart relaxed. The people in the mountains are very barbaric and don't understand the law. It can be seen from Zhao Yongli leading the villagers to fight recklessly. He really wants to fight against the violent state machine. If he is sentenced to ten or eight years for the crimes of obstructing public affairs and law enforcement, interfering with investment promotion, etc., Zhao Yongli may spend his later years in prison.

Liu Jun strongly persuaded Zhao Yongli not to demolish the bridge and persuade the villagers to go home. These two incidents inadvertently saved many villagers. If Liu Jun hadn't come, Zhao Yongli and the village chiefs would have been arrested. Woke up.

Relevant officials of the Qingfeng County Government have received definite information. Zhao Yongli blatantly incited the villagers to obstruct the government's investment promotion, and brought weapons and tools to fight government staff. The Qingfeng County Party Committee and the County Government attached great importance to it. The meeting will deploy countermeasures, and Zhao Xu, Secretary of the Qingfeng Town Party Committee, and others will attend the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee.

The villagers didn't realize how serious the consequences of resisting the government would be. Liu Jun naturally had no way of knowing that the standing committee of the county party committee was being convened urgently in Qingfeng County. After seeing the villagers leave, Liu Jun had time to talk to Zhao Yongli. .

Liu Jun asked Mengting to take out Zhao Xiaohu's message note, handed it to Zhao Yongli, and said, "Old man, I forgot to tell you something. Little Huzi learned how to tame animals with a friend who works at the zoo, and his culture is also very important." I haven’t fallen behind, you see, it’s only been a few months before I can write you a letter, and the handwriting is also good. He asked me to bring you a message, saying that grandpa must take care of his health, and he will come home to see you during the Chinese New Year .”

Zhao Yongli unfolded his grandson Zhao Xiaohu's message, looked at it, tears of relief flowed from the corners of his eyes, and smiled: "Ah Jun, I knew that little Huzi would be successful following you."

Liu Jundao: "Huzi is really smart, he is also diligent and courageous. You don't even know that Huzi has only been in the zoo for a few days. Lions and tigers have been tamed by Huzi and wag their tails all day to please them." What about him?"

"Haha, don't I know? Huzi has been strong since he was a child, he likes to hunt, and he is good-natured. Now that I follow Ah Jun to see him in the provincial capital, I feel relieved." Zhao Xiaohu followed Liu Jun, he put 1 hearts at ease.

"Old man, let's sit in the car and talk about it. The Japanese businessman came to Tujia Mountain Village to invest in tourism. What is going on? How much money is the Japanese businessman going to invest? What conditions are offered? Tell me, the more Xiangxie The better."

Liu Jun lets Zhao Yongli into the back seat of the Land Rover, and asks Yue Sheng to take out his notebook to record. He needs to know the details of the Japanese businessman who wants to compete with him for the Tujia Mountain Village tourism project. He feels that coming to Tujia Mountain Village is like A business war, a war with Japanese businessmen, can only be won if you know yourself and the enemy.

Although Liu Jun has not met a Japanese businessman yet, he has already smelled the smoke of the business war. He must find out the ins and outs of the Japanese businessman, and he cannot invest in the dark.

……

There is a two-story small red building of brick and wood structure built in the 80s in Qingfeng County Party Committee Compound, which is more than ten or twenty kilometers away from Tujia Mountain. The small red building is holding an emergency meeting. 11 members of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee, including the Chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the Minister of Organization, and the Minister of Propaganda, participated in the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee, as well as relevant officials such as the County Public Security Bureau, the Minister of Armed Forces, the Director of Urban Management, the Director of the Investment Promotion Bureau, and the Secretary of the Qingfeng Town Party Committee.

Mo Yunzhi, the secretary of the county party committee with his hair back combed back and sharp eyes, sat at one end of the oval conference table with a serious expression. He slapped the table with a sharp voice.

"Comrades, it has been said since ancient times that troublesome people come out of poor mountains and evil waters. This is true. The villagers of Tujia Mountain openly opposed the government and obstructed investment promotion. The nature is extremely bad and must be severely punished. Please express your opinions on this matter."
