After about two or three minutes, the host came up and looked at the villagers.
"Everyone, please be quiet. We have come to a conclusion."
Everyone became quiet.
"Now I announce that Zhu Debiao will serve as the deputy director of Xiaolong Village, and Meng Xiaobao will serve as the director, effective immediately. Tomorrow you two will go to the township government to get the certificate."
The host announced directly.
"Haha, Brother Bao, you are the village chief and you are upright. That's great. The higher-ups still have some discernment."
"That's great, I'm shocked. With you as the village chief, the villagers won't be oppressed anymore." Uncle Li and Uncle Wang also said with a smile.
One side is happy, the other side is sad.
He has a good relationship with Meng Xiaobao, so he is naturally very happy.
But when Zhu Debiao heard the announcement, his face turned livid for a moment, and then he walked up with a look of reluctance: "Sorry, I have a question."
"Oh, do you have any questions?"
"Hello everyone, my name is Zhu Debiao, and I am also one of the people elected this time. Meng Xiaobao and I have the same vote. Why am I the deputy and he is the chairman? I think it is unfair."
Several people were stunned for a moment, then glanced at Zhu Debiao.
"Yes, that's unfair. Why did Meng Xiaobao become the village chief and De Biao the deputy?" Zhu Changchun also said.
"Guys, I don't mean anything else. I know you are all fair and open, but if you don't give a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid the villagers will have other ideas in the future." Naturally, Zhu Debiao did not dare to offend the people above him and said immediately.
.
"You guys go down first."
The host looked at Zhu Debiao, who then nodded.
"I think they made this choice because they knew Meng Xiaobao was related to the mayor. Anyway, I'm not convinced." Zhu Changchun deliberately raised his voice.
The host suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly.
Then he waved his hands, and everyone suddenly became quiet.
"I know everyone has doubts, but this was decided after discussion, and it is not without basis."
"What basis."
"Because of this tie vote, several of us discussed and planned to find out from the villagers' electoral votes those villagers who did not vote for Zhu Debiao and Meng Xiaobao."
"But you didn't ask anyone to re-elect people at all?"
Zhu Changchun was not afraid either. Since he was not in charge, he was not afraid of offending his superiors.
The host smiled slightly and then said: "After our statistics just now, and everyone has seen the votes here, we found that only one person did not write the names of Zhu Debiao and Meng Xiaobao on the recommendation letter."
"who?"
Everyone was stunned, but Meng Xiaobao had a look of astonishment on his face, as if he had written the names of Uncle Li and Uncle Wang.
Then the host took out an envelope: "In this envelope, the people voting are Li Fulin and Wang Jinhe. It is also the only envelope that does not have the names of Zhu Debiao and Meng Xiaobao written on it."
Zhu Debiao immediately looked around, trying to find out who voted for this.
But my own people are full of doubts.
"You don't have to look for it anymore, I can make this letter public."
Then he turned the envelope over and said, "This envelope was voted by Meng Xiaobao himself, and he is the only one who did not write the names of the two people who were elected on the envelope."
"Meng Xiaobao, come up."
Meng Xiaobao nodded and walked up immediately.
"Since everyone thinks it's unfair, let me ask Meng Xiaobao now, you have a chance to vote again, but you can only choose one of these two names to serve as the village chief. Who do you choose?"
All the villagers have dark faces. The whole village knows about the conflict between Meng Xiaobao and the Zhu family, and one of the candidates is Meng Xiaobao himself. Even a fool knows how Meng Xiaobao will choose.
But Zhu Debiao's face was livid.
Meng Xiaobao looked at the host, then looked at Zhu Debiao in front of him: "To be honest, I didn't expect so many people to elect me at this village chief election meeting. In fact, I never thought about becoming the village chief."
"Did you hear that? He said he doesn't want to be the village chief, so let him be the village chief." Zhu Changchun said immediately.
Meng Xiaobao glanced at Zhu Changchun: "If it were me, Meng Xiaobao, or any of the other villagers, I would elect the other person, but I would not elect Zhu Debiao alone, and I don't want to see the same situation in the village as last time.
The problem."
Zhu Debiao's face was ashen.
The host also smiled slightly: "Please tell me the name of your elector."
"Meng Xiaobao!"
If you want to be the one anyway, then you definitely won’t do anything to Zhu Debiao. Meng Xiaobao is not stupid.
Hearing Meng Xiaobao's name, the host nodded: "Now do you know why I directly announced Meng Xiaobao as the village director? Zhu Debiao, do you still have any questions?"
Zhu Debiao felt like he had eaten shit, his face was the color of pig liver.
"Okay, today's election meeting is over. Congratulations to Village Chief Meng. I hope you can lead the villagers to make a fortune and lead Xiaolong Village to a well-off life."
Meng Xiaobao nodded slightly, now he could only catch the duck and put it on the shelf.
Li Yaoyao and others immediately ran over with excitement on their faces.
"Brother Bao, you will be the village chief from now on. That's great."
Meng Xiaobao also smiled awkwardly: "To be honest, I won't take that seriously."
"Even if you don't know anything, it's still much better than that guy Zhu Debiao." Zhou Dajin said with a smile.
Meng Xiaobao also nodded, but he did not refute this point.
Then a group of people left happily.
Zhu Changchun and Zhu Debiao also walked towards the Zhu family.
"Uncle, what are you going to do? I spent so much money and just bought a pair?"
"I've tried my best, De Biao."
"Then who cast the last vote didn't even have my name on it."
Zhu Changchun's eyes twitched slightly, but then he said: "Who knows? This is anonymous, and the other party is not public, so we don't know at all, but we have all the places we bought with money."
"Damn it."
"Don't be angry, Debiao. At least he is a deputy village chief, which is better than not being one at all!"
"snort."
Zhu Debiao snorted coldly, and then looked at the happy laughter coming from the other side: "Meng Xiaobao, don't think you will win. This village chief is not that easy to be. Don't let me catch the chance. I will still let you step down. When the time comes,
What you did to my father, I will do to you tenfold."
After saying that, Zhu Debiao threw away his hands and left.
Back home, Shen Ruyu was shocked and speechless when she found out that Meng Xiaobao had assumed the position of village chief.
It took a long time to realize: "Xiaobaona, are you really the village chief now?"
Meng Xiaobao nodded: "But Zhu Debiao also served as the deputy village head."
"Brother Bao, he is just a deputy, but after all, he is still your subordinate." Zhou Dajin and Zhou Dafu laughed.
"It's just that you didn't see Zhu Debiao's face at that time. Haha, he probably spent a lot of money to vote this time, but he still couldn't beat you." Li Yaoyao also said with a smile.
"Xiaobao, can we still call you this from now on, or should we call you village chief from now on?" Wang Cuihua also said with a smile.
Meng Xiaobao sighed: "But Zhu Debiao will not be so honest when he becomes the deputy village chief."
"Xiaobao, you don't have to worry too much. As long as you do things for the villagers, I believe the villagers will support you." Shen Ruyu was very happy that Meng Xiaobao became the village chief.
