Chapter 256 Before Darkness
Mr. Ji's words were also said in Xuantong County. The content was similar, which was the requirements for the project, and it was necessary to ensure water and sanitary water. Both standards must be met, otherwise it would not be safe water. Everyone was very surprised by this statement. Without the intervention of external forces, ancestors had eaten the same water for generations, and there was no problem of hygiene.
Without water, the difficulties of life can be imagined; without clean water, people are prone to illness, and if they have money, they will give it to others; living water is good, and if they can use it, it will definitely be good for the body and can also avoid infectious diseases. Of course, having good air and good water in the mountains is a luxury for urban people. It is normal for urban people to have money, without good air or good water. Such a life will be uncomfortable. Development will bring some bad effects, and without development, it will not meet people's needs. This contradiction needs to be resolved.
After the talk, the masses began to applaud. Conan was familiar with the applause. Because of giving money to the villagers, there was something unwelcome to the villagers? Of course, the premise of giving money is that villagers need to cooperate with drinking water projects. They cannot buy fertilizers or seeds with project funds, either buy pesticides or pay tuition to their children. These are not allowed. First of all, we must declare this, so as not to say that we don’t hear it in the future and do not know the requirements, which will be troublesome.
After the meeting, I sat for a while, had some snacks, and then started going down the mountain. I had to go to another place, which was five groups.
The fifth group was halfway up the mountain, and the team leader was at home. It was said that he was a former old clerk. When he saw Jiang Menshen coming with them, he was a little confused. The team leader's surname was Lang and his name was Hao.
Lang Hao is an old official and lives in a wooden house. Above the tablets in the living room are statues of great men, and then there are heaven, earth, kingdom, parents and teachers. As a staff member, it is difficult to understand. Isn’t this to take people on the road of superstition?
Jiang Menshen told his purpose, and he immediately said, "I'll go and notify me. You can wait a moment."
Conan looked at the living conditions of the residents here and was very disappointed. When did they have to wait? The mountains are high and steep, and the walking slopes are difficult. They are almost forty-five degrees of hillside, and the living conditions are dangerous. Why should they live here? It is puzzling. It is just like they are on the top of the mountain. After waiting for a long time, they came. The living here is even more scattered. There is no way, so they can only wait.
Suddenly, I heard someone shouting outside. The sound was very sharp, like a wolf's scream. The sound spreads far away. The sound probably cannot be written in words: "Have it well-" In the end, the sound dragged very long, echoing in the valley, spreading far and far away.
This voice made Conan Ji feel scared. What exactly is it? Could it be that there are wolves during the day?
As the sound fell, someone came over, and people soon arrived at the old clerk's house. Lang Hao said, "Okay, let's start!"
When Conan saw that, sure enough, the room was full of people, as if they were falling from the sky. Conan didn't know that Lang Hao was so charming! He didn't have to call or climb mountains and wading, but just shouted and magically summoned them from all directions to the west! This was the best way to inform the meeting, and it was also the fastest and most convenient. Human voices had unique power, which came faster than calling. He used the power of nature and did not need to waste people and harm money.
This time, Conan and Yoon Hyun-in did not work hard. After a brief introduction to themselves, Jiang Menshen actually repeated what they had said on the top of the mountain.
He was very similar to being a communications soldier in the army. Later, it was confirmed that Jiang Menshen was indeed an information soldier. He did not go to the front line to die. He became a communications soldier and passed messages everywhere. He always ran on the road and would not worry about being hit by bullets.
After he finished speaking, before the audience could react, Lang Hao began to slap his hands. Everyone immediately understood and clapped their hands. Anyway, it was a good thing, and it had to be followed and executed. If they missed the opportunity, there would be no chance. Someone took the lead in applauding, just agreed with the project. As long as someone took the lead, someone would respond later. If they didn't understand, they might be afraid of meeting a scammer, or had doubts about the project, or were worried that the project would not be able to be done, because it involved many people and affected people's normal lives, it would also cause ground, land, or even use labor and money. How easy?
After the meeting, everyone left. Lang Hao kept them for dinner, but Jiang Menshen did not refuse.
They didn't eat at the top of the mountain because they were worried about the people on the mountain. They were worried that they would waste time on the top of the mountain and there was no time to have a meeting on the mountain. Since the meeting was over on the mountain and it was not dark, it should be too late to have a meal. Now, when they go down the mountain, they may have to cook when they get home. Everyone is very tired and no one wants to cook. If they don't cook, everyone is hungry. If they want to read books at night, they may not be able to persevere. They are not used to walking such a steep slope, and they are not going to go up the mountain. The calves really tremble and feel sore when they go down the mountain.
Lang Hao took out the baked pork ribs that he usually couldn't bear to eat. They usually used the best one to serve guests, especially those from afar, and the food they ate was average. Lang Haoran made a hot pot with baked pork ribs and went to the vegetable garden to make some fresh vegetables. As the dishes used to put them in, everyone ate them very happily, smelled, and tasted very delicious.
After eating, Conan saw that the two officials had something to do. You toast and I would like to say something to them, as if an old friend who had not seen him for many years had endless things to say together. Conan walked out of the door and saw that the sun was about to set. He winked at Yoon Hyun-in, pointed at his wrist, but in fact he didn't watch, and then pointed at Yoon Hyun-in's wrist. He wore a watch. Yoon Hyun-in immediately understood and said to the two officials: "I'm sorry, the two old officials, it's almost dark, let's go down the mountain."
Jiang Menshen talked about his heart and didn't drink enough wine. Seeing that Yin Xianren made this request, he nodded and agreed: "Really, it's going to be dark, it's really fast. The daytime is too short. Okay, okay, okay, then I won't accompany the old worker, come again another day, come again another day."
Lang Hao did not try to keep him, and he knew very well that if there were no outsiders present, Jiang Menshen would definitely drink well. He was drunk and could walk home. It was amazing that he was scolded. After the scolding, his wife stopped. Jiang Menshen was not angry and started to act immediately, doing whatever he should do.
It is not easy to go up the mountain, but also difficult to go down the mountain. I always feel that my calves are trembling again and feel very tired. The main reason is that the mountain road is too dangerous and the slope is too steep. Conan has walked through many places. Baishang Village is a relatively steep village. No wonder this village is named after Baishang. It turns out that only Baishangs come in here, and it is difficult for ordinary people to move in.
Finally, I heard the sound of running water. This sound was very familiar, proving that they were getting closer and closer to the river. Conan felt that victory was in sight. When I went up the mountain, I felt that I had walked for a long time, but when I went down the mountain, I didn’t feel that I arrived soon. I went up the bridge and then arrived at the school playground. The monument still stood there, and there was a sycamore tree planted in various places. This is the sign, and you can see it from a distance.
This sycamore tree may be a local sycamore tree. The French sycamore tree will not grow like this. The bark is green and there are no mottled figures.
If there is a sycamore tree, there will be fallen leaves. Planting sycamore tree next to the Hero Monument is puzzling. Are you trying to attract a golden phoenix? Of course, what was being considered at that time? It is unknown. Seeing such a straight sycamore tree is very fresh. Ji Conan's impression of sycamore tree is thick, but not straight. This does not affect the name of sycamore tree. It may be different in species and nature, and the same name is enough.
Having said that, why not plant pine and cypress? This question has always been very entangled by Conan and has never been released.
Conan and the others walked through the playground. Conan opened the kitchen and found a chair. Everyone sat down and rested. Togo had already returned. Village director Qin Feng had already returned. This was what Togo said.
Everyone was so tired that they didn't want to talk. Yin Xianren boiled water, and Jiang Menshen said, "I'm leaving, there are still people in the family who need care."
Conan and Yoon Hyun Inn were just hoping that he would leave. After a day of busyness, they wanted to rest. Conan still couldn't sleep so early. He developed a habit of going to bed late and it was not easy to change it for a while.
After the water boiled, Yoon Xianren washed first. After washing, he called Togo to wash. After washing, he finally came to Conan. Conan brought water to the river and washed his feet. It was okay to wash his face and feet. It was earlier, and he went to the river to get water. It was relatively clean. He could drink it after boiling it directly. However, no one was willing to do this, and there was no way for those who did this. It was unreliable to drink the water from the stream directly. It was not reliable to use the source of the stream, not knowing where the stream passed, and not knowing whether it was clear, it might cause some pollution. It is better to pay attention to it.
After washing, Conan sat at the table and read and wrote.
My eyes felt heavy, and it seemed that people would get sleepy when they were tired. Conan felt sore and numb legs and his eyes were disobedient, so he got up and went to the bathroom, then closed the door, turned off the light, took off his clothes and went to bed. There was silence around him. The chickens fed by the two old men were whispering in the chicken cage. Maybe they were touched by other chickens and complained. As long as they were living creatures, they would move. This is understandable.
The river was flowing, and it was even more obvious when it was late at night. Conan was lying on the bed, thinking about it and then, but he could not sleep, and always felt something was about to happen. I don’t know when Conan gradually fell asleep, sleeping until the rooster and hens were eating together. When he made a gurgling sound, he opened his eyes and a bright light flashed in. He realized that it turned out that in Baishang Village, in the village project management office, there was a farmhouse around him, an elderly couple who did not live with their children. They chose this because they prefer freedom.
After waking up, Conan felt that he couldn't even lift his legs and feet. He was too tired. He didn't know how the people on the mountain lived and how they endured it. It was amazing! However, since he lived in the mountains, he must have exercise and was used to climbing mountains when he went out, so he could endure hardships. Conan met people who worked in Guizhou and in Jiangcheng, who were mostly from the mountainous areas. They were too strong, able to endure hardships, and were very popular among the people in the city.
You can't be deadbeat in bed, you can just get up and say it, there are still some things to do. I had a meeting yesterday, and today I should have a summary.
When they get up and wash and go to the toilet, the two old men next door are particularly fast. From dawn to dark, they are always busy. They can’t finish the work in the countryside. If they lose this and pick up that, they are always busy. Just like a writer always writes, they have to conceive every day and start writing every day, otherwise the pen will rust, people will become rigid, and their minds will become more and more dull.
In some ways, farmers and writers have similarities.
Yoon Hyun-in made breakfast, and the old man next door brought vegetables and said, "Do you like noodles? You can use this dish. Don't be polite, we can't finish our dishes no matter how much we eat."
After the old man finished speaking, he showed a smug look on his face. Yes, it was great that they obtained the fruits of their labor through honest work, shared them with others, and gained happiness and felt satisfied in their hearts!
Yin Xianren doesn't want it. The old man is unhappy and must give it to him. Yin Xianren can't persuade them and has no choice but to accept it. He can only find a way to make up for it later. He cannot let the old man suffer any losses.
Yoon Hyun-in prepared breakfast and then they ate it together. Togo doesn't like noodles, but fortunately, he likes it a little lean meat. He also prefers it. If there is no meat in the noodles, he doesn't want to eat it, or just eat a little symbolically.
After dinner, Conan was washing dishes, and Togo seemed to have done nothing, but it didn't matter. The dishes were washed, cooking, buying vegetables, and washing vegetables were adjusted later. Many brothers were smarter in some aspects, but, in terms of actual situations, cooking, washing dishes and other matters, since he did little, he should restrain himself in his personal image so that more people would be willing to do things for him. If he did not follow the rules, then don't participate in playing games. Many people don't understand this principle, or after understanding a little, they are unwilling to think deeply, and the result is always failure.
After dinner, we start a meeting. This is called a meeting. Only when we have a meeting can we exchange ideas, ask questions, and find solutions.
Jiang Menshen and Qin Feng both came. They participated in this survey and summary meeting in order to prepare for the next step of issuing the "Implementation Plan". At that time, they will find ways to let the whole village know the plan, clarify who pays and who works, and check the construction period. They will strive to make tap water available to the people of the village when killing New Year pigs before the New Year. After the water supply, they will conduct another survey and follow-up investigation, and submit the corresponding investigation and make a summary, which will become a lesson for the past and a teacher for the future.
In this way, everyone talked about it all, and there was no consensus. Some of the claims were obviously unreasonable, but they were legal. After they were legal, they were naturally far from the reason. Fortunately, they all expressed their own opinions, had their own ideas, communicated with each other, and wanted to save differences. The purpose was one, and finally solved the problem. If you don’t seek any reputation, at least you must be worthy of this hard work.
