The next day, Liang Pingfei went to rural pastoral areas to inspect poverty alleviation work. Qiao Liang, as the deputy county magistrate in charge of poverty alleviation, also accompanied him.
The group inspected the assistance projects of Jiangdong Commercial Group. When they learned that the meat processing plant project assisted by Jiangdong Commercial Group only started construction a few years ago, Liang Pingfei was quite surprised because the actual construction speed of the project site was faster than expected. It was a lot faster. Seeing Liang Pingfei's expression, Qiao Liang smiled and said: "Minister Liang, if it weren't for the fact that the construction site was set on fire twice by a group of criminals when it first started construction, which affected the construction of the construction site, what would it be like now? The progress will be even faster.”
When Liang Pingfei heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Who is so bold as to destroy such a key poverty alleviation project?"
"The gang of criminals who set the fire have not been caught yet, but since the county bureau set up a temporary police station at the construction site, the safety of the construction site has been guaranteed." Qiao Liang said, having said that, Qiao Liang Deep down, he was actually more inclined to think that it was because the iron mine boss Liu Yuhu was arrested, so there were no more incidents at the construction site. However, Liang Pingfei didn't understand the situation here, so Qiao Liang didn't say much.
The group visited the completion site and visited some herdsmen's homes. Taking this opportunity, Qiao Liang and Liang Pingfei talked about the county's plan to promote the installation of solar photovoltaic power generation panels in herdsmen's families. After listening to Qiao Liang's detailed introduction, Liang Pingfei was very excited. Nodding in appreciation: "Yes, County Magistrate Qiao, the poverty alleviation work you are doing is very targeted. As long as it can be carried out, the results will be remarkable."
"Minister Liang, we must take action on this. Last year, Liangbei County ranked last in the province in terms of poverty alleviation work. This year we must be aware of our shame and be brave enough to take off the hat of being last in the province," Qiao Liang said.
"It seems that County Magistrate Qiao is very confident." Liang Pingfei looked at Qiao Liang and smiled.
"Minister Liang, I'm not confident, I'm chasing a duck. If our Liangbei County is still ranked last in the poverty alleviation evaluation this year, then I, the deputy county magistrate in charge of poverty alleviation, will have to find a crack in the ground to sneak in. You might as well go home and raise pigs." Qiao Liang said seriously.
Liang Pingfei nodded slightly when he heard the words and glanced at Qiao Liang. He finally understood why the young man in front of him got Liao Gufeng's attention. Thinking of the scene when Liao Gufeng came to Xizhou to talk to him, Liang Pingfei still The memory was profound. Because of that conversation, Liang Pingfei kept Qiao Liang's name in mind. After all, he could not ignore the division-level cadres that Liao Gufeng paid personal attention to.
At this time, in the county town, a man was walking on the street outside the County No. 1 Middle School. The man's name was He Xiaodong. He was He Xiaomei's brother. He Xiaodong had been running around these days and was exhausted every day because of the incident of his sister He Xiaomei jumping off the building.
Today, He Xiaodong came to County No. 1 Middle School again. Although he also knew that he would not get any results, he just wanted to come. Especially when he saw his sister's English teacher, He Xiaodong became angry and went up. Now he is obsessed with identifying his sister. Her death was related to her English teacher. Even He Xiaodong suspected that his sister's mobile phone was missing and might have been hidden by him.
Although he was quickly kicked out by the school security, He Xiaodong had no regrets at all. He planned to come here every day in the future. Even if it upset the school, he would seek justice for his sister. Although there might be little hope in the end, He Xiaodong still insisted. He even quit his job because he wanted to do this.
Whether he can seek justice for his sister, perhaps he can only place his hope on the leader. He Xiaodong thought of Qiao Liang, which was his only hope at the moment.
Thinking about something on his mind, He Xiaodong was a little distracted and didn't pay attention to the road. As he walked, He Xiaodong suddenly bumped into someone, and his head hit the other person. He Xiaodong felt a little pain, and at the same time he heard an oops from somewhere. He Xiaodong hurriedly
Looking over, he saw a man about the same height as him, who was also covering his head. He Xiaodong hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I was distracted. Are you okay?"
"What's the matter with you, don't you walk without looking at the road?" The man rubbed his head and asked He Xiaodong with a glare.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." He Xiaodong knew he was wrong and kept apologizing.
"Is it okay to just say I'm sorry? I was knocked dizzy by you, and I might have a concussion. You have to pay for it," the man yelled.
He Xiaodong's eyes widened. How could he get a concussion from just such a collision? He Xiaodong couldn't help but wonder if the man was cheating.
"I asked you to pay for it, did you hear that?" The man pushed He Xiaodong and his tone was harsh.
"Why are you pushing me?" He Xiaodong was also angry, "According to your statement, it is possible that I have a concussion. Do you also have to compensate me?"
"Did you hit me or did I hit you?" The man raised his hand and pointed at He Xiaodong fiercely, "You hit someone and you still want to be unreasonable. Do you believe that I will give you a beating?"
"You should come if you have the ability." He Xiaodong's temper was also rising. He had been wronged a lot because of his sister in the past few days, and he was holding back his anger.
"Okay, if you have the guts, just wait for me." The man looked at He Xiaodong, said harsh words, turned around and left.
Seeing the man leaving, He Xiaodong curled his lips. Damn, another big talker. He has seen too many of these people. They bully the weak and fear the strong. The weaker you are, the more he will rub his nose in your face. If you get tough, he will
On the contrary, I was timid.
He Xiaodong didn't take the man's words to heart and continued walking forward. After walking for about five or six minutes, when he reached a corner in front, He Xiaodong suddenly felt the figure in front of him flicker, and then he felt severe pain in his shoulder.
He turned around and saw someone behind him hitting his shoulder with a steel pipe. Before He Xiaodong could react, his legs suddenly softened and he half-knelt on the ground. Another person next to him hit his calf with a steel pipe.
The blow was so heavy and cruel that He Xiaodong instantly felt a tearing pain in his calf.
"Nima, I want you to fight with me, and I'll see if I don't kill you."
He Xiaodong fell to the ground in pain. He looked around and saw three men surrounding him with steel pipes. One of them was the man who had just collided with him.
Seeing the steel pipe coming down again, He Xiaodong's mind went blank and he had no time to think. He reflexively covered his head with his hands and curled up. This was an instinctive self-protection.
Severe pain shot through his body, He Xiaodong protected his head tightly, and finally passed out from the pain...
Towards the evening, Qiao Liang accompanied Liang Pingfei back from an inspection in the rural pastoral area. Liang Pingfei was very satisfied with the results of today's inspection and spoke highly of Liangbei's current poverty alleviation work. Liang Pingfei's praise made Qiao Liang very happy.
, after all, this is recognition of his work.
Liang Pingfei did not stay any longer at night, but returned directly to the city. After seeing Liang Pingfei off, Qiao Liang relaxed and returned to the office. Then he drove to Ma Yuanxiang's house. Ma Yuanxiang asked him to come over for dinner in the evening.
When Qiao Liang arrived, Ma Yuanxiang had already prepared the meal. Seeing Qiao Liang coming, Ma Yuanxiang walked to the door as usual to get Qiao Liang's shoes.
"Every time I come to your place, I feel like I want to start a family." Qiao Liang looked at Ma Yuanxiang and smiled.
"Then hurry up and start a family. You are already a grown-up. It's time to find a woman to take care of you." Ma Yuanxiang said.
"Oh, it's just words. If I really think about getting married, I feel a sense of fear." Qiao Liang sighed. The shadow of Qiao Liang's failed and shameful marriage to Zhang Mei still lingered.
.
Ma Yuanxiang didn't know the specific situation of Qiao Liang, so when she heard Qiao Liang say this, she guessed that Qiao Liang might have something to hide, so she didn't ask any more questions.
The two of them sat down at the dining table. Ma Yuanxiang served Qiao Liang a meal and said, "I've been quietly asking about the female student you asked me to ask about jumping off the building in the past two days, and it seems a bit weird."
"This girl named He Xiaomei, a few days before she jumped off the building, her English teacher seemed to often pick her up. On the morning of the day she jumped off the building, the teacher on duty saw her English teacher coming to see her.
Take her into a car." Ma Yuanxiang said.
When Qiao Liang heard this, his heart moved, it was that English teacher again! This was the second time Qiao Liang heard news related to this English teacher.
"Then do you know where this English teacher always picks her up?" Qiao Liang asked.
"That's not clear. Her English teacher's name is Li Yijia. If you want to know the details, I probably have to ask her, but I don't dare to ask her directly, lest she arouse suspicion." Ma Yuanxiang said.
"Well, what you did is right." Qiao Liang nodded.
"I have been thinking about this for the past two days. I was wondering if the car they got in had something to say. There happened to be surveillance at the school gate, so I made an excuse in the morning and said
I lost something on the day I was on duty, so I went to the guard room to check the surveillance of the past few days, and I was able to find the car that day. I secretly wrote down the license plate number." Ma Yuanxiang said, writing down the
He handed the license plate number to Qiao Liang and said, "I don't know if this is useful."
"Maybe it will be useful." Qiao Liang took the piece of paper with the license plate number written on it, "Maybe your license plate number will really make a great contribution later on."
Qiao Liang just said it casually at the moment and didn't have much hope for this matter.
At this time, Ma Yuanxiang added: "By the way, when I checked the surveillance, I found that this car not only came to the school on the day of He Xiaomei's accident, but also appeared at the school gate in the previous two days."
"Yes, I understand." Qiao Liang nodded.
The two of them were eating, and Qiao Liang and Ma Yuanxiang drank a few glasses of wine. He originally planned to stay at Ma Yuanxiang's place tonight, but a phone call disrupted Qiao Liang's plan.
The call was from He Xiaomei's brother He Xiaodong. Qiao Liang marked the other party in his address book. When he saw the other party calling, Qiao Liang answered the phone.
When he learned that He Xiaodong was in the hospital, Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment, then said that he would go there immediately. After asking which ward the other party was in, Qiao Liang hung up the phone.
