Chapter 2157

Su Xinghui said, "Aunt Liu, Xiaoya is taking a bath, right? Then I'll take a bath after she finishes."

Liu Yujiao said, "County Director Su, you must be careful, don't catch a cold."

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "By the way, Aunt Liu, is the situation in your home okay?"

Liu Yujiao said, "My home is okay, we live on the third floor, no water entered, but I heard that many people living in bungalows have already had water enter their homes."

Su Xinghui already understood this situation. He had already asked the relevant departments to solve it. The main thing was to solve the problem of drainage. However, the torrential rain had been falling for four or five days, and if it continued to fall like this, sooner or later these waters would have nowhere to drain.

Su Xinghui asked again, "Then there is no big problem with your life?"

Liu Yujiao frowned and said, "County Director Su, there are still some problems in life, mainly because there are no fresh vegetables to eat. There are some people selling vegetables on the street, the vegetables are not very good, and they are sold very expensively, all sold at ten yuan a jin, and it is very difficult to buy them, and they are snatched up all at once."

This was the first time Su Xinghui heard about this situation. He frowned and said, "Isn't this taking advantage of the fire to rob, making a national disaster fortune?"

Liu Yujiao said, "County Director Su, there is no other way. It has been raining heavily for so long, and the vegetables have been drowned. The vegetable prices must have risen sharply."

Su Xinghui asked, "Then are the vegetables we bought also ten yuan a jin?"

Su Xinghui's family's vegetables were bought by Liu Yujiao. Su Xinghui rarely paid attention to these things. He now found that he seemed to need to pay attention to these things. This was all related to people's livelihood.

Liu Yujiao shook her head and said, "County Director Su, the vegetables we bought are still parity vegetables."

Su Xinghui asked in surprise, "Why can we buy parity vegetables?"

Liu Yujiao said, "There is an industrial and commercial director who manages the agricultural trade market. He didn't know how he found out that I was your family's nanny. He originally said he would send vegetables to us, but you always said that you couldn't accept gifts, so I never accepted the vegetables he sent. This time it rained heavily, and I couldn't buy vegetables, so he sent vegetables again. I still didn't accept them, so he sold them to me at parity."

Su Xinghui was dumbfounded when he heard this. These people were really pervasive in order to curry favor with him. They could even do such things. He originally wanted to let Liu Yujiao refuse the parity vegetables of this industrial and commercial director, but on second thought, there was no need.

Letting the common people eat parity vegetables should have been the duty of the industrial and commercial office. As long as Liu Yujiao paid the normal market price, then there was nothing.

This vegetable was a necessity for every household, and his family was no exception. Since Liu Yujiao couldn't buy vegetables, accepting the kindness of this industrial and commercial director was not impossible.

Now there was another thing worth his attention, which was that since he, a county director, couldn't buy parity vegetables without anyone's help, what should those real common people do? Could they buy parity vegetables?

To be honest, when Su Xinghui arranged various flood fighting and disaster relief work, he really didn't think of this point, because such experience was too little. In the past, even if there was a flood, there would not be such torrential rain that didn't stop all day, at least there were still vegetables to eat. He didn't expect that the torrential rain this time was so heavy that even vegetables couldn't be eaten.

In the flood in his previous life, Su Xinghui had been staying on the river embankment, and he didn't have the experience of such overall command, so it was normal for him to have omissions.

Su Xinghui decided to summon the Director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau in the evening and let him solve the problem of the common people eating vegetables. This problem seemed to be solved only by transporting vegetables from the northern areas where it didn't rain.

To be honest, the energy of the County Industrial and Commercial Bureau was limited, and whether it could successfully transport a large batch of vegetables was a problem. Su Xinghui was prepared to ask Yu Ruizhi and others for help. With their energy, it would be no problem to transport some vegetables.

When these vegetables transported from the north arrived, the vegetable prices in Chongjin County would naturally come down.

Of course, those vegetable vendors who raised prices in the chaos should also be cracked down on. Their behavior was disturbing the market order. If it was not handled well, it would have a great impact on Chongjin County's flood fighting and disaster relief.

Because at such a moment, it was necessary to unite as one, and the whole county should be of one heart. If such behavior was allowed to disturb the hearts of the people of Chongjin County, that would of course not work.

This incident also alerted Su Xinghui. There were too many topics to face in such an unprecedented great flood, and he must do his work more meticulously.

Su Xinghui was considering this matter when Lu Xiaoya came out of the bathroom. She saw Su Xinghui return and quickly said to Su Xinghui, "Xinghui, take a bath quickly, otherwise you will catch a cold."

Su Xinghui then stood up, took his clothes, and went into the bathroom to take a bath.

After taking a bath, the family started eating. At the dinner table, Su Xinghui saw that the vegetables in his home were still quite rich and fresh, so he said to Liu Yujiao, "Aunt Liu, don't buy so many vegetables in our home these days, wait until there are more vegetables on the market."

Liu Yujiao nodded knowingly. Lu Xiaoya asked what was going on, and Su Xinghui told the reason, and Lu Xiaoya also nodded understandingly.

Now many common people in the whole county couldn't eat vegetables, and Su Xinghui, as a county director, could still eat such rich and fresh vegetables at such a time. Even if no one knew, he couldn't do this. He couldn't enjoy such rich vegetables with peace of mind, and he had to share joys and sorrows with the common people. ===== CHAPTER 2159 =====
