Chapter 548: Hao Qiang treats me to hot pot
We arranged the research activities in Suxi Town for three days. To save time, we arranged the accommodation in Qian Youyu's Suxi Hotel.
The first two days were continuous symposiums, from white-haired old people to young teenagers. During the period, we separated activities. Professor Luo, Old Ma, and Gan Lu were responsible for the symposium, and I took Xiao Qiu directly to the farmers' homes to discuss.
On the third day, we finished work and returned. We briefly summarized the situation and prepared to celebrate well. Tomorrow we will leave Chunshan County and go to other counties for research.
Seven counties and five districts in the Hengyue region, we have to research at least six counties.
It was not yet dinner time in the evening, Xiao Qiu came in and told me someone was looking for me.
I went downstairs and saw a person standing at the entrance of Suxi Hotel at a glance. He had his back to me, looking at the street at the entrance of the hotel, holding a cigarette in his hand, almost burning his fingers.
I walked over, just about to speak, he had already turned around and looked at me with a smile.
It's Hao Qiang! I shouted, and reached out and punched him.
I have been in Suxi for three days, and I haven't seen him yet. I know Hao Qiang is still the director of Suxi Police Station, which still gives me a little comfort compared to Lao Mo.
Hao Qiang smiled honestly and reached out to shake hands.
He didn't wear a police uniform, which surprised me a little. In the past, when I was in Suxi Township, Hao Qiang wore a police uniform all year round. I was in Suxi for eight years, and I almost never saw him wear casual clothes. Even at the funeral of Township Mayor Hao, Hao Qiang appeared in a police uniform.
He is a person who loves his work very much. From the first day he put on his police uniform, he didn't intend to take it off again. In his view, his profession is his life. He is often proud of being a policeman, so in his work, no matter how hard or tired he was, I never saw him complain.
"Go! Let's go eat hot pot." Hao Qiang pulled me and walked.
"Where to?" I asked, but my footsteps didn't stop.
"You'll know when you get there." Hao Qiang took me to a police car and opened the door for me to get on.
In the past, when I went to Chunshan County, Hao Qiang always sent me off in a sidecar. On this rugged mountain road between Suxi Township and Chunshan County, how many shadows of me moving forward with him were left!
"Changed cars?" I looked at the police car. This car looked expensive, Land Cruiser, the County Bureau didn't have a few.
Hao Qiang giggled and pointed to the distant hot spring villa with blurred lights: "They donated it."
I said "Oh", Liu Misi, that dog-day, is really willing!
"Just this car, it made my police station look like it was opened by them." Hao Qiang said with dissatisfaction, he turned on the police car and prepared to open the police siren.
I held his hand and said: "Don't open the siren, the sound makes people panic."
Hao Qiang looked at me and smiled: "Didn't do anything wrong?"
I replied: "What do you think?"
Hao Qiang smiled without saying a word, didn't open the siren anymore, turned the steering wheel, and drove towards the police station.
I have great credit for the Suxi Town Police Station. Without me, they would still have to shrink in the old township government. Back then, the County Bureau Director wouldn't take money out even if he died. Not only did he not pay for the land, but he didn't pay a penny for the house.
According to the Director, his Public Security Bureau had no money, and all twenty-something police stations in the county, with more than three hundred police officers, didn't have money for each person to have a gun. The oldest gun had to be traced back to the revolver era. If Suxi Town wanted a peaceful life, don't think about money, take the initiative to pay for the new police station. If Suxi Town gave the new police station, the County Bureau promised to increase the police station's establishment by five.
This number was extremely tempting. From the establishment of the Suxi Police Station to the present, there were at most three police officers. After the old director retired, there was a situation where there was only Hao Qiang in one station. Hao Qiang's director was when he started to be.
The County Bureau Director was an old fox. He not only told me this condition, but also told Hao Qiang. It made Hao Qiang ask me for land and houses as soon as he saw me.
The police station finally fell on Qian Youyu's head. The land was Laoyingzui's. No matter how bold Zhao Dequan was, when he heard that he wanted to build a police station, he didn't dare to say no for half a sentence. The money for building the house was paid by Qian Youyu, which was owed to him by Suxi Town, and it is estimated that it is still on the account to this day, and not a penny has been returned.
After the police station was built, the County Bureau Director didn't break his promise, and really increased the establishment by five. What is the concept of five establishments? That is five guns! Plus the previous three police officers, it is eight people and eight guns.
Hao Qiang was overjoyed and expressed many times that he wanted to treat me well.
But later, the Qilin Villa incident happened, and later I was transferred to the county, and I never asked about the Suxi Town Police Station again.
When the car arrived at the entrance of the police station, Hao Qiang opened the door and jumped out of the car, signaling me to get off.
Bring me to the police station? Eat hot pot here? I was confused, looking everywhere, unable to see any signs of eating hot pot.
Suddenly a voice came from behind me: "Hello, Chief!"
I looked back and saw Zhao Dequan standing behind me, grinning with his wide lips.
I was so angry that I kicked him, almost kicking his butt.
Zhao Dequan jumped away like a monkey, shouting in surprise: "Hey, you are a chief, why are you still kicking people?"
I scolded with a smile: "Zhao Dequan, you are just itchy, don't say I am not a chief now, even if I am a chief, your butt still has to be kicked."
Zhao Dequan turned his body sideways, revealing half of his butt and said: "Come, come, Chief, please kick."
I was about to kick, Hao Qiang shouted: "Old Zhao, are you ready?"
Zhao Dequan immediately put away his grinning look and said seriously: "Ready, ready, just waiting for you."
Following Hao Qiang into the police station, turning from the front door, there was an open space behind, and behind the open space was a three-story small building, which was the family house of the police station. On both sides of the open space, a row of small low houses were built, the doors of each house were iron, without windows, and there was only a hole the size of half a head on it.
Surrounded on all four sides like this, it is similar to the northern courtyard.
We walked across the open space, I looked at the small low houses on both sides, and saw a pair of rolling eyes exposed behind a few iron doors.
Hao Qiang said faintly: "These people, thieves and dogs."
I asked suspiciously: "How long to lock up?"
Hao Qiang laughed: "Look at the effect. Some who don't repent, lock up for a few more days."
My heart paused, and I said: "The detention time of your police station is limited, don't mess around."
Hao Qiang stared at me for a few times and said: "If everything is handled according to law, nothing can be done well."
I had to shut up, not wanting to continue discussing this issue. Hao Qiang has been a policeman for so long, how can he not understand the law? He does this, naturally there is his reason.
Such a pattern is not the appearance of the police station I built for them back then. We didn't build such two rows of small low houses back then. The open space left was intended to wait for the police station to develop and grow in the future, and this place could be used to build office buildings or dormitories.
Now it was taken by Hao Qiang to build a detention room, and the detention room was under the eyelids of the family building. If a person with a sick head tosses in the small low room, it is more annoying than anything.
Arriving at the family building, I saw a few police officers preparing to go out. Seeing Hao Qiang come in, they greeted each other and left.
Upstairs to the third floor, the door was wide open, and a fragrance drifted out, making my stomach growl.
A large table was placed in the center of the living room, a copper hot pot was placed in the center of the table, and the fragrance drifted from the copper hot pot.
As soon as we entered the room, Liu Hongyan came out of the kitchen with an apron, and greeted me politely.
Hao Qiang treated me, but it was at home. And he also called an inexplicable Zhao Dequan, which surprised me a little.
Hao Qiang greeted me to sit down and handed me a cup of tea.
Taking advantage of this leisure, I looked at this small house.
When designing back then, Qian Youyu pressed the area of the house again and again to save money, and finally produced a three-bedroom, one-living room of about sixty square meters.
Liu Hongyan was calling Hao Qiang to help, and their warmth made my heart settle down slightly.
Hao Qiang brought out a basin of vegetables and said: "Chen Feng, let's wait, someone hasn't arrived yet."
I asked suspiciously: "Who else?"
The muscles on Hao Qiang's face jumped and said: "You'll know when you come later."
He turned back to help, and only Zhao Dequan and I were left in the living room.
I asked him: "Dequan, is life okay now?"
This was the first time Zhao Dequan heard me call him like this, he was stunned for a long time before nodding like a chicken pecking rice and said: "Good, good, it's just that some people have no land now, and their hearts are panicked."
I asked strangely: "What's the panic about having no land? Do business."
Zhao Dequan shook his head and said: "We farmers, only when we have land in our hands, our hearts are not panicked. No matter how much money we make in business, there is no bottom."
"Small farmer consciousness." I scolded with a smile.
Zhao Dequan stiffened his neck and said: "Oh, we are just farmers. Farmers are good, no matter how the world changes, don't be afraid of starving yourself. Look at me now, I got an urban household registration, no land, no work. Doing business is not as refined as others, can't make money, making myself neither human nor ghost, I don't know what to do in the future."
"There will always be a way." I comforted him.
Zhao Dequan took a sip of water and said: "Don't lie to me. I understand like a mirror in my heart. We people who bought household registration are unmanaged and uncollected. Now those with rural household registration, according to you people from the province, will not only not pay money to farm in the future, but the country will also subsidize money back, which is something I didn't dare to think about in the past. People with real urban household registration in the city, the country has to manage, only us, if there is such a policy, we can't enjoy it, no work and no one to manage, starve to death, what to do."
Zhao Dequan's words made me not recover for a long time.
Whoever thought of the idea of selling household registration must have no pi eyes when giving birth to a son.
I giggled. Zhao Dequan looked at me suspiciously, not knowing what I was laughing at, thinking his face was not clean, wiped it hard with his hand, and walked to the mirror to see.
The door was knocked, and I got up to open the door.
The door opened, and I saw Lao Mo and Li Fulian standing outside the door. They also saw me, and when our eyes met, everyone was stupid. ===== CHAPTER 549 =====
