Chapter 166 Power is Still in Your Hands
At this moment, Chen Ming stood up leaning on a cane, and said loudly: "I have a candidate, I don't know if everyone agrees."

The villagers turned their eyes from Mr. Li to the crippled Chen Ming.

"I propose to let Jiang Zhi be our village head. Brother Jiang is loyal, loyal, and cultured. He should be qualified for this position." Chen Ming finished shouting at the top of his voice, and turned back to look at Jiang with eyes asking for credit. wisdom.

Jiang Zhi frowned after hearing what Chen Ming said.

It seems that Li Cheng is not the only one who thinks that way. Chen Ming also wants Jiang Zhi to be the village head.

After hearing this, Sanye Li, who was sitting on the top, changed his face a little, and his grandson Li Xianhao directly objected.

"I disagree, he is not from our village at all, how can he be the village chief?"

Jiang Zhi, who didn't want to speak at first, stood up immediately after listening to Li Xianhao's words, and said to the villagers solemnly: "I am very happy and honored. Someone thinks highly of me and proposes that I be the village head of our village." .Although I didn't intend to become one myself, after all, I know how much I have. Without the diamonds, we can't do the porcelain work. People say that's the reason.

However, what this person said just now forced me to stand up and say a few words for myself. I want to ask this person, what does it mean that I am not from our village?Who told you that?This should not be what Mr. Li said, because if you think we are not from Tashan Village, then you can’t let us come to the meeting today. Since you let us come, I think it is a kind of affirmation of us, Mr. Li right? "Jiang Zhi's last sentence was asked by the silent Mr. Li.

Mr. Li was asked face to face by Jiang Zhi, and there was no way to keep silent, so he nodded to Jiang Zhi.

"That's it. Since I was asked to attend the meeting of Tashan Village, I also have a house and land here, and my address is clearly written in the household registration book, so who dares to say that I am not from Tashan Village? I am the village chief. Why don't you have the qualifications?" Jiang Zhi looked at Li Xianhao standing next to Mr. Li with embarrassing eyes.

Li Xianhao made Jiang Zhi feel a little uncomfortable. Standing in front of him, the center of gravity of his body changed several times between his feet, but he still insisted and said: "But you have moved to our village for too short a time. You don’t recognize all the people in the village, do you?”

I said coolly at the bottom: "Our **** doesn't know me yet, he still acts as his ****, manages me, and manages the whole country. What's the matter, our little The head of a mountain village is stricter than the Communist Party's election?"

Li Xianhao stood on the top and couldn't think of words to refute me, but the villagers below were amused by my words and laughed.

The atmosphere at the scene became lively again, and an aunt next to me also said in a loud voice: "As long as the elected village chief is sincerely doing good things for our villagers, he can do practical things. We are not an old society, and we still have to pay for money." Senior."

"That's right, since someone has spoken, I'll also share my thoughts. I also want to run for the mayor of our village." A man in his 30s stood up to speak.

I know this person. He is Zhao Tianci, the son of Zhao Laoliu in the village.From the name, we can tell what the old man expects of him, but he himself has no great prospects. After finishing high school, he went out to work, and found a rural girl outside to get married and have children. This time, it was also because of the snow disaster. I just returned to Tashan Village.

When Chen Ming introduced him to me, he said that he was a bit stupid, and that sometimes what he did could not be deduced by common sense.

Zhao Tianci went on frothing, "I have a high school degree, not low, and I am a native of Tashan Village. Everyone knows me well, and they are sincere. If I become the village chief in the future, I will definitely be a real person." I actually do things for everyone, and I agree with the criteria for the village head election that everyone said just now. So now I also want to be the village head."

The villagers were amused again by Zhao Tianci's words.

After listening to Zhao Tianci's words, Li Xianhao shouted: "Zhao Tianci, you bastard, you still want to be the village chief, just stay and stay."

Zhao Tianci was unhappy, and said in a choked voice: "Who do you think is the second tiger?" He said as he was about to rush forward.

Li Xianhao was scared when he saw Zhao Tianci's eyes widened and he was about to rush over with clenched fists, so he quickly hid behind Sanye Li.

Before Zhao Tianci rushed out, he was grabbed by his wife next to him.At the scene, it was seen that he was playing a donkey temper there, and his wife was calm in a low voice.

The villagers looked at Li Xianhao, who was a coward in front, and Zhao Tianci, who was so super-huge, below, and burst out laughing again.

Mr. Li couldn't bear it anymore. Such a serious meeting has now become a venue for villagers to laugh.With a sullen face, he slapped the table hard twice, and the villagers below slowly stopped laughing and looked at him again.

"Since everyone is still undecided, we will have an election in two days. Everyone will think about it when we go back. We will still hold a meeting here or at this point in two days. If anyone wants to run for the village chief, then we should talk to him about it." Let’s talk about what you can do, what you know how to do, and whether you have any experience in this field, but those who don’t know anything should stop fooling around, this is a very serious matter.” After he finished speaking, he He stood up and let his grandson help him to walk down from the front. Before he left, he looked at Jiang Zhi several times inexplicably.

I took a good look at his words below, and he didn't know whether he was talking about Jiang Zhi or Zhao Tianci.

After Mr. Li left, everyone didn't leave. Instead, they chatted with each other more easily in the village committee compound.

At this time, Chen Ming approached Jiang Zhi with a smile, and said to Jiang Zhi, "Brother Jiang, I actually mean it well. I really think you are quite suitable to be the village head of our village. That's why I proposed it. Who would have thought that you didn't want to be..." He became softer afterward.

Li Cheng said from the side: "It's not that Brother Jiang doesn't want to be, it's because your sister-in-law doesn't want him to be."

Chen Ming looked at me suspiciously. I had no choice but to repeat what I said yesterday, and finally emphasized: "We came here to live our own lives and not to be village chiefs. Once we become the village head, we have more responsibilities, and we don’t want to put such a lot of pressure on ourselves.”

Chen Ming still asked me with a puzzled face: "Didn't those careerists on TV always say that only when the power is in their own hands can they have a free life? Isn't that what you said about the quiet life?"

I was questioned by what he said, and I didn't know what to refute. At the same time, I also realized that my thoughts were relatively small-scale peasants. I looked up at Jiang Zhi, wanting to see his thoughts.

Jiang Zhi grabbed my hand from below and stroked it gently.

"Your sister-in-law's theory is correct. The position of the village head is not easy to do, and we are new here. There is no mass base. It can be said that the village head has a lot of work, and the villagers only do it for his sake. Well, if someone like me becomes the village head, who can care about me, I won’t be able to do any job well in the future.

But what Chen Ming said is right, if we want to live a quiet life, we must improve the environment around us, otherwise we won't be able to talk about it.

If Mr. Li becomes the village head this time, we may have constant troubles in the future.Although we are not afraid of him, it is difficult to stop and live. "

"Let's leave it alone and talk about your thoughts first. Do you want to be the village chief?" I looked at Jiang Zhi seriously.

Seeing my seriousness, Jiang Zhi smiled slightly and said, "If someone we can trust becomes the village chief, then it doesn't matter whoever becomes the village chief. It's up to you, but if Mr. Li wants to be the village chief, then I can I really need to think about it."

After he finished speaking, seeing the thoughtful faces of the people around him, he laughed and said, "Okay, let's stop looking for trouble, haven't we all said, who is the village chief?" It’s not what we say, it has to be chosen by the villagers, and they will know who will be the village chief in two days.”

After that, Jiang Zhi stopped talking about this topic, and turned around to chat with the villagers.

Chen Ming also returned to a small group of young people, chattering.

I also said the same thing as Jiang Zhi said in my heart, since this matter is not for us to make a choice, then why should we bother.

After two leisurely days, it was time for the meeting again, and everyone came to the village committee compound again.

This time Mr. Li implemented a method of secret balloting, asking the villagers to put the note with their name on it into a big cardboard box, and then they were looking for someone to count the votes and decide the candidate for the village head.

The method Li Sanye thought of this time can be said to be very manipulative for him. As long as he bribes the statistician, he can become the village chief he dreams of.

But there were people on the scene who didn't want what he wanted.After everyone voted, Li Xianhao was stopped by someone just as he was about to take the cardboard box away.

Li Cheng said to everyone: "Since the votes are counted, there is no need to hide behind people's backs. Now that everyone is fine, let's count the votes on the spot. This is the most authentic way, and no one can cheat."

Li Xianhao was a little silly holding the box, he hurriedly turned his head to look at his grandfather, and Li Sanye's originally happy face instantly fell down.He frowned and said, "This has never happened in our village before. Let's find a few reliable people and make statistics in the house."

Li Cheng said without retreating: "I haven't done this before, so it doesn't mean I can't do it now, or who wants to do some tricks in private?"

He glanced sharply at Li Xianhao and Li Sanye several times.

After hearing what he said, Mr. Li couldn't open his mouth to refute anymore, so he frowned and pursed the corners of his mouth tightly, looking very unhappy.

Li Cheng didn't care whether he was happy or not, seeing that Mr. Li had stopped talking, he stepped forward and snatched the cardboard box from Li Xianhao's hand, and moved it back to the big table in front of him.

"Since there is no objection, let's count the votes on the spot, so as to eliminate all favoritism and fraud, and truly achieve fairness and justice."
