Due to road conditions, it was almost noon when the large machinery and equipment arrived at Xiping Village. Xia Jian first asked the driver to have some lunch and then started working immediately.

The first family in the west of the village is Chen Kang's family. Chen Kang's father passed away in this disaster. The man in his sixties would not have died if it were not for the inconvenience of his legs and feet.

Xia Jian took Fang Fang, followed by Chen Erniu and other strong laborers from the village. They all brought their tools and went straight to Chen Kang's house. Ouyang Hong led the shovel team and went around from the other side.

In the collapsed yard of Chen Kang's house, there were more than a dozen people standing in knee-deep mud, including men, women, and several children. Everyone had a white cloth wrapped around their heads.

"Xia Jian, it seems that Chen Kang wants to cause trouble," Chen Erniu reminded Xia Jian in a low voice.

The whole house collapsed and people died. For such a big thing, no matter who is involved, it is inevitable that there will be emotions. Xia Jian has long been mentally prepared for this.

He took a step forward and said loudly: "Brother Chen Kang, everyone is sad that my uncle is gone. You want him to be buried as soon as possible. Moreover, your home is located in the first household of Xiping Village. If the mud is not cleaned up as soon as possible,

The carcasses of animals buried underneath will soon decompose, possibly causing unpredictable epidemics."

"I don't care. I know you have become more capable in the past two years, and you can talk about things one after another. But my father is dead and the house is falling down. Someone has to come out and say something! You are temporary, I don't

It’s hard for you, if we clean up all this, where will we live in the future? Even if these junk things are not worth a few dollars, they still have to be bought with money!” A middle-aged man in his forties shouted angrily.

That's Chen Kang.

Chen Erniu took a step forward and shouted: "Brother Chen Kang, you are being unreasonable! Xia Jian was appointed jointly by everyone. Besides, this is a natural disaster, not a riot. You also know that there are two people in the town."

More than ten villages have been affected by the disaster. At this time, can anyone speak out for you?"

"Er Niu, don't forget that your surname is Chen. I'm not being reasonable. What do you think you should say about this? My father is dead, and I need money for his burial. With a family of more than ten people, what will they eat in the future?

You can't live in other people's homes forever!" The man in his forties actually started crying after talking about it.

Everyone who sees this scene will feel sad.

Xia Jian walked over, patted Chen Kang's generous shoulder and said, "It's all our fault for being careless and forgetting about your family's situation. I don't have much money here. I'll give you two thousand yuan first. You can bury your uncle as soon as possible."

This is a top priority. As for the issue of food and accommodation for your home, Mayor Ouyang already reported it last night. Of course, if your home is cleaned first, it will be built first."

As Xia Jian spoke, he took two thousand yuan from Fang Fang and handed it to Chen Kang. Chen Kang nodded excitedly and asked, "Did the government help us build this house?"

"Yes, don't worry. I, Ouyang Hong, am the mayor of Pingyang Town and I speak on behalf of the government." Ouyang Hong walked over from the alley on the other side with muddy water flowing.

Chen Kang glanced at Xia Jian and whispered: "You are from our village. I believe what you say."

Ouyang Hong looked at Xia Jian a little embarrassed, and Xia Jian hurriedly said to Chen Kang: "Just believe it! What she said is all true. Bury your uncle as soon as possible! Just say hello if you need it."

Chen Kang nodded and led his family away. He heard that his father's body was parked at the entrance of the village.

Xia Jian waved his hand, and several young men in the village began to work hard.

After a while, several large machines had rolled out a new road from the west end of the village, forming an encirclement with the villagers. Before dark, Chen Kang's yard had been cleared.

A slight smile appeared on Xia Jian's face. When he turned around, he saw Ouyang Hong curled up on a big stone at the entrance of the alley, already asleep. Only then did Xia Jian think that they had not slept last night.

In the evening, when Xia Jian returned to the village committee, the phone call was already connected.

"Xia Jian, I think this progress is too slow. We should divide into several groups and work day and night, and everyone in the village should be put to use, regardless of gender." Ouyang Hong sat next to the phone, looking like

Just after making the call, I saw Feng Xiajian and said immediately.

Xia Jian thought about it. He was indeed a little blind on the first day, but now he has some ideas. According to Ouyang Hong, it should be the best. He took a breath and asked: "What daily necessities did you prepare?

When will it be in place? Many villagers' food and flour have been buried by the flood. I heard everyone say today that they can hardly hold on."

"Tomorrow some rice and noodles will arrive first, and the food problem will be solved. But don't worry, it's not as serious as they said. In a village, only 65% ​​of the affected households are affected, and 35% of the villagers should still have surplus food at home.

If you take them all out, there should be no problem for ten days and a half, but these people..." Ouyang Hong flipped through the small book, and it seemed that she had done her work very carefully.

Xia Jian knew what she was going to say next, so he immediately interrupted her and rushed to say: "Okay then! Let the original women director in the village and Zhao Hong lead the women who are capable of working in the village.

Villagers who are alive must do a good job in logistical support and let Chen Erniu and Xia Sanhu lead two groups to work at night. The two of us are also working in teams."

"It's very reasonable. Let's do this next time." Ouyang Hong agreed immediately.

At this moment, Chen Erniu ran in with his bare feet. He gasped and said, "It's not good. Chen Gui's wife got under the forklift with her big belly."

"What? Okay, what are you doing under the forklift?" Xia Jian became angry when he heard this. Is this woman crazy?

Chen Erniu poured himself a glass of water, drank it in one breath, and then said: "No, isn't it now that the cleanup has reached Chen Gui's house? This scumbag knew that he was a village cadre and could not come forward, so he secretly encouraged his wife

Get under the forklift and stop us from working"

"Wait a minute, Chen Gui also has a wife? Or a pregnant woman?" Xia Jian became more and more confused as he listened. He still knew this Chen Gui. Wang Youcai's follower had been beaten by him a lot. How come he had been beaten by him for more than a year?

Becoming a cadre and marrying a wife really feels like a carp jumping over the dragon's door.

Chen Erniu laughed dryly and said: "You don't know, this guy became more impressive as soon as he became a village cadre. He had some spare money, first he repaired the house, and then he got a wife back. Before he got married, he had a big belly.

Yeah, he looks like a vixen at first glance."

"Okay, okay, it's useless to say this. Mayor Ouyang, let's go take a look?" Xia Jian said, and he had already left the door.

Chen Erniu smiled at Ouyang Hong and said, "Look at his impatience, wasn't he the one who asked just now? He also said that it was useless for me to say anything." Ouyang Hong laughed and hurriedly caught up.

A circle of people gathered around the alley entrance of Chen Erniu's house, some working and some running over to watch the excitement.

"What's going on?" Xia Jian shouted, and the crowd dispersed immediately.

A woman in her mid-twenties was sitting on the ground with disheveled hair, her feet stretched out under the big tires of the shovel. Standing next to her was Chen Gui. When he saw Xia Jian, he had a sinister smile on his face.

Welcoming him.

"Oh! Leader, you're here. Look at me, this wife, I don't live up to expectations at all. I heard that you gave Chen Kang's family a subsidy of two thousand yuan. She also shouted for it. If you refused, she just sat here and couldn't get up.

There is nothing I can do about her, because she has a big belly. If you don't pay attention, you will get into trouble, don't you think? "Chen Gui is still the same as before.

In the past, Xia Jian would have kicked him away, but he knew in his heart that this guy knew that he didn't dare to do it now, so he deliberately made things difficult, just to get more money. Farmers are suffering, but using this method

Xia Jian was unwilling to bargain with him from the bottom of his heart.

"Chen Gui! You are also a cadre in the village after all. You should be more enlightened than others. The two thousand yuan I gave Chen Kang are not burial expenses, but you have made it clear to me.

The subsidy is paid by Xia Jian from my own pocket." Xia Jian said, slowly walking over. He wanted to see what kind of woman the woman sitting on the ground was.

Chen Gui tilted his nose and snorted coldly: "We don't know if it's a subsidy or not." This sentence was so hurtful that Xia Jian couldn't help but feel anger rising in his heart, and his clenched fists kept ringing.
