Chapter 69 So that's it 2

Speaking of this, the old man led Wu Hao into the door of a house, pushed open the door, and introduced to Wu Hao: "Wu Ji! This is my old house, but because the children have built houses in other places, we moved out. Fortunately, the old guy, I, has not yet passed away, so when I have time, I will come back to see where the house leaks and collapses. If there is any, I will find someone to repair it, otherwise the house would have collapsed long ago."

Wu Hao followed the old man into his old house. Although it felt a bit dilapidated, the windows, beams, characters on the pillars and the carvings of the landscape were vivid, and all showed an ancient and ancient cultural charm. Wu Hao followed the old man to admire the wood carvings on it. Although these little wooden men were decayed and incomplete, they clearly showed the grace of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in both hair, clothing or dress. Through their blurred faces and mottled limbs, it seemed that people were roaring, chimes and dancing to the peace, as if Wu Hao felt invisible and watched the grand ceremony with his breath, witnessing the rise and fall of China for a thousand years.

Wu Hao looked at these carvings and asked the old man who was cleaning the broom, "Old man! How many houses are there in the old street like yours?"

When the old man heard Wu Hao’s question, he replied while sweeping: “The houses in the river are similar to my house, but my old houses are only ordinary here. The first few were wealthy families here back then, so the carvings in the house are so luxurious.”

When Wu Hao heard the old man's words, he immediately asked impatiently: "Old man! Can you take me to the houses you just mentioned to visit?"

The old man was very confused when he heard Wu Hao's words. He looked at Wu Hao with excitement and asked curiously: "Wu Ji! Isn't this place going to be demolished? Why are you so curious about the house here?"

Wu Hao replied embarrassedly when he heard the old man's words: "Old man! At that time, our county party committee and county government were considering demolishing the old street and rebuilding it mainly because the houses on the old street are all wooden institutions. Not only are the houses old, but the streets are also particularly narrow and crowded, afraid that if there is a fire or something, the consequences will be unimaginable. However, when I heard what you said in the teahouse just now, I suddenly had doubts about my government orders. If the old street is really like what you said, if it is really demolished by a truck, then I will be Zhou Dun's sinner, so I am afraid that you would take me around again. If the houses here are really like yours, then I will reconsider whether to demolish the old street or rebuild the old street."

The old man didn't expect that Wu Hao came for this purpose. He looked at the ancestral house in front of him, and if it was really demolished, he would definitely feel very sad. After all, there are little things he has lived here, and there are memories of his decades. If it is demolished, these memories will disappear with the demolition of the house. So if the house can be not demolished, it is undoubtedly the most worthy of his happiness for him.

When the old man thought of this, he happily said to Wu Hao: "Wu Ji! If this is the case, that would be great. As long as you can not demolish these houses, you can do anything, as long as you don't demolish these houses, you can do anything." When he said this, the old man put the broom casually and led Wu Hao and Liu An out of the door with a smile.

When Wu Hao's follower walked through more than a dozen houses near the river, he finally understood why Yin Xudong was punished for the demolition project of Zhoudun Old Street. Although he didn't understand how Yin Xudong knew that the profit was made, when he walked out of the last house, the demolition project of the demolition project of the old street was destined to end.

Wu Hao looked at the house in front of him and said to the old man: "Old man! Thank you for accompanying me for so long. I have another unhappy request. I wonder if you can find several homeowners to ask them to write a few letters of explanation to the Minning Municipal Party Committee, Municipal Government, and our Zhoudun County Party Committee, and County Government."

Wu Hao's actions today left too many questions for the old man, but he deserves that since Wu Ji said this, there must be his reason. In addition, everything Wu Ji did to Zhou Dun in the past three years was for Zhou Dun's people, so he nodded without hesitation and replied: "Wu Ji! Just leave this matter to me that you can rest assured! I promise that the letter will be delivered to your desk tomorrow morning."

When Wu Hao heard the old man's words, he said thank you happily! Then he said goodbye to the old man and walked out of the old street with Liu An. He listened to the next step and looked back at the still lively old street, and said to Liu An meaningfully: "Old Liu! It seems that our work has not been done yet! We have made the mistake of judging people by appearance. If Yin Xudong had not been disturbed, everything here will probably become the past in the near future, and we will also become the sinners of Zhoudun County."

Liu An also looked at the old street in front of him and reviewed Wu Hao: "Wu Ji! This is the work of our government has not been done well. It is understandable that you are a foreigner and don't know the situation of the old street. However, our local cadres actually ignored these things when they were in charge of this work. Although this place looks very dilapidated, it is particularly precious inside. I think our demolition project should not be carried out any longer."

When Wu Hao heard Liu An's words, he nodded and replied firmly: "Although we have invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the early stage, we must also stop the demolition project for the cultural heritage in the old street. Let's do this! You will be lucky enough to have a hard time later. Then the museum will invite two experts to come to our Zhoudun and let them help us make a serious appraisal. How to arrange the next work will be decided after the appraisal results come out!"

When Liu An heard Wu Hao’s explanation, he nodded immediately and replied: “Wu Ji! Then I will rush to Min Ning soon, but the museum hopes that you can help contact us.”

When Wu Hao heard Liu An's words, he thought about it for a while and replied simply: "Okay! I will call Director Xing of the museum later, but the matter of asking experts to go to the old street to appraise needs to be kept confidential for the time being."

After Wu Hao and Liu An broke up, they went back to their office directly. After thinking for a while, he felt that he had to call Wang Chengjiang and exchanged opinions on the situation of the old street and temporarily stopped the compensation work of the old street. As for what to do in the end, he could only wait for the final appraisal conclusion given by the experts before discussing the next step of work.

Wu Hao didn't wait long, and Wang Chengjiang immediately heard from the phone, saying warmly: "Wu Ji! Hello! Have you returned to Zhoudun? Mayor Zhou has been waiting for you again!"

After working with Wang Chengjiang for two years, Wu Hao naturally understood what Wang Chengjiang meant, so he naturally cooperated and replied on the phone: "County Mayor Wang! I just arrived at Zhoudun. Is Mayor Zhou still in the scenic area? If so, I will come here immediately."

"No need for Wu Ji! We are on the way back to Zhoudun from the scenic spot. I guess we will arrive at the county party committee in more than ten minutes. Just wait for us in the office building." Wang Chengjiang replied immediately when he heard Wu Hao's words.

Upon hearing this, Wu Hao immediately replied with a smile: "Old Wang! Then please tell Mayor Zhou for me that I will wait for him in front of the county party committee building." After Wu Hao said goodbye to Wang Chengjiang and hung up the phone.

Wu Hao, who put down the phone, immediately called the Finance Director Chen Gang, asking him to take the demolition compensation work on the surface, but temporarily stopped the compensation for the demolition of the old street in the field. After he further notified, he walked from the office to the county party committee building and waited for the arrival of Zhou Baokun and his party of uninvited guests.

Wu Hao didn't wait long in the county party committee building, and saw Zhou Baokun's car and Wang Chengjiang's car driving into the Zhoudun County Party Committee compound one after another. When he saw Zhou Baokun and his party walking out of the car, he immediately greeted him with a hypocritical smile, shook hands with Zhou Baokun, and apologized with a smile: "Mayor Zhou! I learned that you came to Zhou Dun to check the work. I wanted to come back overnight last night, but was called by Xu Ji to his house, so I could only rush back to Zhou Dun early this morning. I'm really sorry!"

Zhou Baokun didn't care too much when he heard Wu Hao's explanation. He shook hands with Wu Hao, not as enthusiastic as the weekend night. Instead, he looked like a mayor, with a very rigorous expression and a feeling of being arrogant in his tone, and said, "Xiao Wu! Xu Ji told you that you must have important instructions, so I understand quite well."

Wu Hao shook hands with Yin Xudong and said with a smile: "Welcome to Zhoudun to inspect investment!" Then he did not give Yin Xudong a chance to speak, and said to Guan Tong with a smile: "Ms. Guan! Welcome to our Zhoudun, but next time I come, I hope you can bring your crew to our Zhoudun to promote our Zhoudun's beautiful mountains and rivers."

When Guan Tong heard Wu Hao's words, Yinghong's pretty mouth inadvertently showed a charming smile. A pair of talking eyes said with a smile: "Wu Ji! Of course, this is fine, but how do you want to thank me then?"
