When the deputy mayor asked, he said without hesitation: "If there is water and it is convenient for farmers to obtain water for production and living, we can first develop oil peonies. In the Yellow River irrigation area of Linxi Province, they are planting oil with high economic value and can improve the desert environment.
With peonies, people's lives have been significantly improved; if roads are opened, we can also develop the cold vegetable industry and transport vegetables quickly. It is said that there is a huge demand for cherry tomatoes, peppers and various vegetables in big cities. But.
Even if they are planted now, the vegetables will be spoiled after being transported to the outside. Now we can’t grow anything except Xiliu potatoes.”
Fang Ya asked: "Why are potatoes grown so well?" Jiang Xiaohui replied: "Mr. Fang, yam eggs are drought-resistant. There is plenty of sunshine and little rainfall here, so the yam eggs grown here have red skin and yellow flesh, which are particularly delicious." Jiang Xiaohui said.
explained.
Fang Ya was obviously not familiar with agriculture, but she was interested: "Then why is there nothing on the table today?"
Vice Mayor Ma Senlin said: "How dare you give this kind of coarse grain to our distinguished guests from the river?" Team leader Gu was also very interested and said: "We all want to have a taste too." Deputy Director of the Reception Office
Wang Landao: "Mayor Ma, let me serve you a plate of yam eggs. The leaders in Jiangzhong are very easy-going and pragmatic. They really want to understand the situation and help Ninggan, especially Liupanshan, develop."
Ma Senlin looked at all the cadres in Jiangzhong and thought, if they don't want to do something practical, why did they come to Xiliu City in the past six or seven hours? Ma Senlin ordered his subordinates: "Give all the leaders a try.
Potatoes, at least one for each person."
Potatoes are also a common cereal eaten by the locals. After the order was given, a large plate was served not long after. Deputy Mayor Ma Senlin said with an embarrassed smile: "There is nothing good, so I have to treat everyone to potatoes!"
Team Leader Gu, Fang Ya and others all took one, peeled it off and ate it.
When the big plate was turned to Xiao Zheng, he also grabbed one, peeled off the skin, and took a bite. It felt smooth, pink but not greasy. After examining the taste, it was even more fragrant. This comes from the land.
A gift from nature, the purest taste of nature. Xiao Zheng was shocked by the simple taste. This was the most delicious potato he had ever tasted. The locals called it "yam eggs".
Looking at team leader Gu, Fang Ya, Jiang Xiaohui, Ma Kai and the others, they all ate with gusto. To be honest, Xiliu City did not skimp on today’s lunch. I am afraid they served the best local dishes, but in Jiang
Among the products from the Chinese delegation, these Xiliu potatoes are the most delicious.
Team leader Gu finished a potato and exclaimed: "This is really the best potato I have ever eaten!" Fang Ya also smiled and said: "If people in Hangzhou can eat this potato, they will definitely like it.
"Ma Kai said: "I want to buy some for my family." Deputy Mayor Ma Senlin said: "Director, you are out of touch. We don't have any other good things. We have a lot of potatoes. I'll wait for you.
Ask someone to load a few hundred kilograms into your car." Team leader Gu immediately said: "No, no, we have to drive into Liupan Mountain. We can't bring more potatoes, otherwise the car won't be able to bear them."
Wang Lan also said: "We only have an off-road vehicle, so we can't eat too much weight. The further we go into Liupan Mountain, the harder the road becomes." Ma Senlin said: "If this is the case, let's bring ten pounds for each person first.
, we will use the car to pull it when we come next time." Wang Lan accepted it for the inspection team.
At the end of lunch, Vice Mayor Ma Senlin invited Team Leader Gu to stay one night in Xiliu City. But Team Leader Gu said that he had to rush in because of time constraints. Wang Lan said that the Xiliu City Reception Office could make arrangements for everyone.
Hourly room, two hours of rest in the afternoon before starting the journey. But team leader Gu said, no, no one is doing anything in the car anyway, they can take a nap. Team leader Gu politely declined. Wang Lan had no choice but to follow Team Leader Gu's wishes.
.
Vice Mayor Ma Senlin did not force them to stay and accompanied them outside the hotel. The staff stuffed dozens of kilograms of Xiliu potatoes into the trunk of their business car, and also put in several large boxes of mineral water.
, there are 24 bottles of mineral water per box, so there are hundreds of bottles. After seeing it, team leader Gu said: "What are you doing with so much water? Is it unused?" Wang Lan said: "As we get further into Liupan Mountain,
The harder the water, the southerners are not used to drinking it and it is easy to have diarrhea. Sometimes you can’t buy mineral water on the road, so let’s prepare it first, just to be prepared.” After hearing what Wang Lan said, team leader Gu stopped talking.
When everyone was about to get on the road, a police car suddenly roared up. Then it stopped in front of the commercial vehicle of the inspection team. Team leader Gu and others were a little surprised. Why did a police car suddenly come? Wang Lan explained: "Gu
Team leader, this is arranged by Xiliu City to escort us to our next stop, Shanpan City."
Police cars clearing the way? This surprised Team Leader Gu and Xiao Zheng. In Jiangzhong, even if the main leaders of the provincial party committee go out, police cars will not clear the way. Only when Hua Jing leads the way, police cars will be used to clear the way.
Some leaders in Huajing have also made it clear that they do not want this kind of treatment. Although team leader Gu is here to conduct poverty alleviation inspections on behalf of Jiangzhong, she is only at the department level after all. She must not enjoy such treatment as police cars clearing the way, otherwise she will leave a scandal to others.
.
Team leader Gu said: "This is not okay, we absolutely cannot clear the way for police cars." Deputy Mayor Ma Senlin said: "Leader Gu, don't think too much. We are just to ensure your safety, and it is not a 'police car clearing the way'. If
If you have concerns about the police car driving in front, we can have the police car follow behind. What do you think?"
Ma Senlin glanced at Wang Lan again. Wang Lan agreed and said to Team Leader Gu: "Team Leader Gu, you asked the police car to follow us to Shanpan City just to ensure our safety. Director Jiang, you
Say so?"
Wang Lan began to mobilize Jiang Xiaohui. Jiang Xiaohui had no choice but to say: "Team leader Gu, the road from Xiliu City to Shanpan City is even more difficult, and communication is still very poor in some places. It will be much more convenient to have police cars following us. We have time now
Aren't you very nervous? It's best not to delay on the way. With the police here, we will be much more secure. As long as we reach Shanpan City, we can let the police come back."
However, Team Leader Gu still insisted: "It is inappropriate to let the police cars follow, whether it is clearing the way in front or holding back the formation." Team Leader Gu did not want anything to be confirmed.
Xiao Zheng suddenly remembered that in the car this morning, Jiang Xiaohui said that there were two reasons why she did not go back to her hometown. The first was to save money, and the second she did not elaborate on. At that time, Xiao Zheng observed Jiang Xiaohui and Wang Lan
They exchanged glances. Both of them were locals, and their expressions at that time showed that only the locals could understand that they knew something, but they would not tell others, as if they had something to hide.
Now, both Wang Lan and Jiang Xiaohui suggested that the police should follow, but team leader Gu firmly opposed the police because he was concerned about the image of the inspection team.
Xiao Zheng walked to Jiang Xiaohui and said, "Director Jiang, let's go to the side and say a word." Jiang Xiaohui glanced at him, as if she didn't want to say anything, but finally said "hmm" and followed Xiao Zheng to the side. Xiao Zheng
He asked: "Do you have any scruples in letting the public security clear the way in Xiliu City?" Jiang Xiaohui was silent, looking very embarrassed, but in the end she nodded and said: "There are 'blockers' on this road, I don't know.
It’s very unsafe when people come out.”
Xiao Zheng was very surprised. There was a "blocker" on the main road from Xiliu City to Shanpan City! "Is it necessary to pay for the road?" Xiao Zheng asked in disbelief. Jiang Xiaohui's face was covered with a layer of gloom:
"It's not as simple as buying road money." Xiao Zheng looked at Jiang Xiaohui and said, "Can you tell me the truth? Maybe I can convince Team Leader Gu to bring the police?"
Jiang Xiaohui glanced at team leader Gu who was getting into the car, and then turned around and said: "There are evil forces on this road. They have done countless bad things. Even the local government can't do anything." Xiao Zheng was surprised, no wonder.
The expressions of Jiang Xiaohui and Wang Lan were so solemn. No wonder even the deputy mayor of Xiliu City asked the police to accompany Team Leader Gu's car, probably because they were worried that something might happen on the road.
Xiao Zheng asked again: "What bad things have they done?" Jiang Xiaohui said: "They have done all kinds of bad things. It can be said that they have committed all kinds of evil. On this main road, no less than 30 women were violated, and vehicles and passers-by were robbed.
There will be no less than 100 cases. Especially young women and businessmen from other places generally do not dare to take this road." These numbers made Xiao Zheng dumbfounded: "Now, in the 21st century, on the land of our country, there are still
Doesn’t the local government care about this situation?”
Jiang Xiaohui said: "The background of those evil forces is very complex and powerful, and even the local government dare not take care of it. If there are police cars to clear the way, they will give some face, but if there is no public security escort, if they happen to commit a crime, it may be really serious."
It will be very troublesome, after all, there are so many girls in our car, and they are all from Jiangnan."
Xiao Zheng also became worried. The four women in this car were not first-class beauties no matter who they were. Even though Team Leader Gu was old, he still had a good temperament and his charm was still there. Xiao Zheng was right
Jiang Xiaohui said: "I'm going to do the work of Team Leader Gu." Jiang Xiaohui said: "That's great."
At this time, Team Leader Gu had already gotten into the commercial vehicle. Xiao Zheng also got in the car and sat directly next to Team Leader Gu. Team Leader Gu was startled for a moment, looked at Xiao Zheng and said, "County Chief Xiao, what's going on?
"?" Xiao Zheng said simply and clearly: "Team Leader Gu, there are uncontrollable evil forces on this road. I'm afraid it's not safe without the public security. We have to let the public security follow. If you have concerns, we can let them
Wear plain clothes and drive an ordinary car."
"Evil forces?" Team leader Gu was also surprised, "Since the government knows, why doesn't it crack down?" Xiao Zheng said: "I'm afraid the situation is not that simple. Now there are two choices. One is not to go to Liupan Mountain.
, we go home and return to Yinzhou; secondly, we continue to move forward and let the plainclothes follow us, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure the safety of the whole car."
Team Leader Gu frowned tightly and said, "Keep going. Let them arrange plain clothes."
