These people are the director of the government office, the security section chief, and several security guards.
After the director of the government office came in, he did not look at Qiao Liang. He pointed directly at Uncle Bucket and ordered the security section chief: "This person is petitioning illegally and disrupting the order of the office. Drag him away immediately and drive him out..."
The security section chief then took action with the security guards.
"Stop—" Qiao Liang got angry and shouted.
The security chief looked at Qiao Liang and then at the director of the government office, hesitating.
Qiao Liang looked at the director of the government office and shouted: "Who asked you to bring people to my office? Who gave you the power to drive away the people who expressed their demands?"
The director of the government office smiled dryly: "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, since this person is here to see County Magistrate Shang, and since Magistrate Shang will not be here at this time, you should not worry too much..."
"Did County Magistrate Shang ask you to do this?" Qiao Liang said.
The director of the government office did not answer Qiao Liang's words, and continued: "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, you are not in charge of anything now, it seems you shouldn't be in charge of this matter, right?"
"Pa—" Qiao Liang slapped the coffee table and said coldly, "I am not in charge of anything, which means I can take charge of everything. I can intervene in anything that involves the interests of the masses. As the office director, what do I do? You are not qualified to ask, let alone dictate."
Hearing Qiao Liang's unceremonious words, He Qingqing was secretly happy.
The director of the government office looked a bit sad, and then said neither softly nor hard: "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, do you really want to meddle in this business?"
"It has nothing to do with you whether I care or not. You need to recognize your identity, correct your position, and get out. Get out now -" Qiao Liang pointed at the door and said in a stern voice.
The director of the government office was even more embarrassed. He glanced at Qiao Liang solemnly, then turned and left without saying a word. The security section chief and several security guards followed him away in despair.
Qiao Liang then winked at He Qingqing. He Qingqing understood, walked to the door and closed it.
Qiao Liang took a deep breath, then looked at Uncle Bucket in a gentle tone: "Uncle, don't worry about anything, just tell me if you have anything."
Uncle Bucket looked at Qiao Liang with a somewhat hesitant expression: "County Magistrate Qiao, I told you, will it cause you any trouble?"
Qiao Liang chuckled: "No, no, no, no, this scene just now was just a small episode in our internal affairs, please tell me..."
"Yes, sir, tell me." He Qingqing also said.
Uncle Bucket nodded, Qiao Liang then winked at He Qingqing, He Qingqing understood again, and then took out paper and pen.
Uncle Bucket continued...
It turns out that Uncle Bucket's pasture is near the iron mine. When the iron ore was mined, a large area of land was enclosed, and Uncle Bucket's pasture was forcibly enclosed. According to regulations, corresponding compensation should be given, but the iron mine was not I only gave a small amount of money as a token, and I didn’t give the rest.
Without the pasture, Uncle Bucket's family had nowhere to graze, and the compensation was minimal. The family's life was suddenly in doubt. Uncle Bucket went to the iron mine many times to ask for compensation, but every time he was stopped by the iron mine security team. Recently, the iron ore security team even took action and beat Uncle Bucket and his wife. The wife was already in poor health and suffered from chronic diseases. After being beaten and frightened, the chronic disease broke out and she was sent directly to the county hospital.
Seeing a doctor costs money, and the hospital requires an initial payment of 20,000 yuan in hospitalization fees. This is nothing more than worsening the situation for the already poor Bucket family. His wife is lying on the hospital bed without money for treatment, and Uncle Bucket is worried. When the security captain ordered people to beat them, he threatened that the iron mine was a big project introduced by County Magistrate Shang, and asked them to go to Magistrate Shang if they had anything to do. They were not allowed to bother with the iron mine again, otherwise they would be killed.
In desperation, Uncle Bucket came to the gate of the county compound and asked to see Shang Ke for explanation.
Then Uncle Bucket said that there were several families in the same situation as his family near the iron mine. Their pastures were also forcibly occupied and destroyed by the iron mine. They asked for compensation many times but were threatened and beaten instead of compensation. However, his family's situation was the worst.
After listening to Uncle Bucket's words, Qiao Liang was filled with indignation and couldn't help clenching his fists. Damn it, the iron ore dog bullies the people by relying on human power. It's so arrogant and abominable!
Thinking that Shang Ke was behind the iron mine and that Shang Ke would not allow anyone to interfere with the iron mine, Qiao Liang gradually calmed down, lit a cigarette and took two puffs, took over the record made by He Qingqing and read it over, thinking about it. Then he said to Uncle Bucket: "Uncle, I understand your situation. Don't worry, I will definitely report this to the relevant leaders and help you and other herdsmen solve the problem. Now that your wife is hospitalized, I will give it to your wife first." Treatment is important, please go back to the hospital first..."
Qiao Liang then said to He Qingqing: "You drive my car to take the uncle back to the hospital."
He Qingqing nodded, opened the door and walked out with Uncle Bucket. As soon as he reached the door, Qiao Liang called He Qingqing back.
"County Magistrate Qiao, do you have any other orders?" He Qingqing looked at Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang thought for a moment, then took out the bank card from his jacket pocket and handed it to He Qingqing: "There is a little more than 20,000 in it. After you send the uncle to the hospital, go to the hospitalization department and pay the 20,000 yuan out, and pay the hospitalization expenses of the uncle's wife." Hand it over..."
Then Qiao Liang told He Qingqing the card password.
The money in this card is all of Qiao Liang's current assets. Because he has to pay off Zhang Mei's BMW car loan, Qiao Liang has not been able to save much money.
After hearing what Qiao Liang said, He Qingqing was immediately moved: "County Magistrate Qiao, you, this..."
Qiao Liang sighed and waved his hand: "Stop talking and go ahead."
He Qingqing looked at Qiao Liang, then pursed her lips, then turned around and went out, went downstairs with Uncle Bucket, and drove to the county hospital.
On the way to the county hospital, He Qingqing pretended to be casual and chatted with Uncle Bhakta, asking for his wife's bed number and name.
After arriving at the county hospital, He Qingqing asked Uncle Bucket to return to the ward, then went to the inpatient payment window, reported Bucket's wife's name and bed number, then took out Qiao Liang's bank card and handed it over: "Swipe 1 on this card Ten thousand."
"Do I need to pay 20,000 yuan in hospitalization fees?" the hospital fee collector reminded.
"I know." He Qingqing took out her salary card and handed it over, "I'll charge another 10,000 yuan on this card."
After paying the hospitalization fee, He Qingqing drove back to the county compound, and then went to Qiao Liang's office, where Qiao Liang was sitting at his desk, deep in thought.
He Qingqing returned Qiao Liang's bank card to him, and Qiao Liang took it and installed it: "Have you paid the fee?"
"Yes." He Qingqing nodded, "I gave you 10,000 yuan."
"Huh?" Qiao Liang frowned, "You need to pay 20,000 for hospitalization. How did you pay 10,000?"
"You only have a little over 20,000 in your card. If you use up 20,000, how will you spend it? I'm afraid your friends won't be able to invite guests when they come." He Qingqing said.
"I'm working here and I don't have any friends who need to treat me. If you pay me 10,000 yuan, the hospitalization fee is not enough. My wife's treatment will be delayed. No, you can go back and pay me 10,000 yuan more." Qiao Liang said.
He Qingqing smiled: "The hospitalization fee of 20,000 yuan has been paid."
"Oh..." Qiao Liang looked at He Qingqing and blinked, "Did you swipe your own card?"
"Yeah." He Qingqing nodded.
"Why are you doing this?" Qiao Liang said.
"Because the power of role models is infinite, since you want Lei Feng to do good deeds, I can't be left behind. I want to do good deeds with you." He Qingqing said easily.
Qiao Liang laughed: "Well, that's right. I admire Director He for such a righteous deed."
"That's because County Magistrate Qiao's righteous deeds moved me first. I really think that I should follow County Magistrate Qiao's example." He Qingqing also smiled.
Qiao Liang looked at He Qingqing with admiration. This woman was helpful and kind-hearted.
Seeing Qiao Liang's admiring eyes, He Qingqing was very satisfied.
Then Qiao Liang said: "Uncle Bucket's incident happened around the iron mine, which should be the area of Shi Lei's management. Ask Shi Lei about the situation later."
"Okay." He Qingqing nodded, "I think Shi Lei should know about this, but even though he knows, he may not dare to take care of it."
"Yes, I understand." Qiao Liang nodded, looked at He Qingqing and said meaningfully, "I don't expect Shi Lei to take care of this matter now. What I need is that he can provide relevant information. I need him to provide information to Uncle Bucket." The ones that fit together.”
He Qingqing understood and nodded: "Okay, I will get the first-hand real situation as soon as possible."
"Give me the information as soon as you get it. Don't let anyone know about this except you and Shi Lei," Qiao Liang warned.
He Qingqing also smiled: "This seems a bit risky and a bit exciting."
"You can enjoy the excitement, but I will bear the risk." Qiao Liang said.
He Qingqing shook her head: "I can't let you bear the risk alone, I want to bear it with you."
"Director He's words moved me, but can you afford this risk? In other words, with your current identity and position, it seems that you cannot meet the standards for taking this risk." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
He Qingqing smiled and said: "Does County Magistrate Qiao look down on me, or does he look down on lesbians?"
"Whatever you think, I don't want to drag you into the water." Qiao Liang said.
"Why?" He Qingqing asked.
Qiao Liang said simply: "It's very simple. I'm here for a temporary job and will leave after two years, but you are going to stay in Liangbei for a long time."
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, He Qingqing's heart warmed up. He was a man who dared to act. Although he was cooperating with him, he still wanted to protect himself as much as possible.
Thinking that Qiao Liang will leave Liangbei in two years, although two years is not a short time, He Qingqing still feels a little disappointed.
Alas, it would be great if Qiao Liang could stay in Liangbei for a long time. It would be great if he didn't take a temporary job.
Thinking like this, He Qingqing sighed secretly...
After get off work, Qiao Liang just walked out of the office building. Shang Ke's Land Cruiser drove to the front of the building and stopped, and then Shang Ke got out of the car.
Seeing Qiao Liang, Shang Ke came over with a gloomy face.
Seeing Shang Ke's behavior, Qiao Liang knew that he must have learned something from the director of the government office at this time. He couldn't help but smile to himself, and then took the initiative to say hello: "County Magistrate Shang is back."
Shang Ke walked up to Qiao Liang, looked at him coldly, and said nothing for a while.
