The first thousand three hundred and eighty-nine chapters
"Very good."
The old farmer slapped his thigh, returned the press card to Chen Hao, and then started telling the story.
It turns out that the old farmer's name is Lu Zhiguo, an ordinary farmer from Hongxing Village, Tuanjie Township, Daonan District, Donglin City. According to the documents issued by the S Province, he purchased a corn harvester from a merchant designated by the agricultural machinery department.
According to the document, the corn harvester purchased by Lu Zhiguo can be given a subsidy of 30,000 yuan.
Of course, you need to advance money first and then apply for subsidies.
Lu Zhi's country is not well off, and the money he spent to buy a corn harvester used up the funds he originally planned to buy secondary fertilizer.
So after buying the corn harvester, Lu Zhiguo immediately applied for subsidies to avoid running out of money to buy fertilizer, which would delay the second fertilization of the crops and affect the harvest.
Originally, everything he had complied with the document requirements and the materials were complete, so it should be easy for him to apply for the subsidy.
But Lu Zhiguo went to the agricultural machinery department nearly ten times but couldn't get it done.
Why?
There is no one in the agricultural machinery department.
This no one does not mean no relationship, but literally no one.
Even if you come here, the staff handling the matter is not there! If the staff is not there, naturally the matter cannot be done.
If you can't get things done, you won't be able to apply for subsidies.
Why aren't the office staff here?
The first time was indeed Lu Zhiguo's carelessness. Since he was a farmer and had no concept of statutory holidays, he came to the agricultural machinery department on a Sunday to do some work, but he didn't even get in. His trip was in vain.
The second time, Lu Zhiguo learned his lesson and came in time for a working day. However, since he came in the afternoon, it took more than an hour to take the shuttle bus. It was already 3:30 in the afternoon when he arrived at the agricultural machinery department.
Although it was not normal off-duty hours, it was said that the agricultural machinery department was not open in the afternoon, so Lu Zhiguo was frustrated again.
The third time, Lu Zhiguo rushed early and arrived at the agricultural machinery department at 8:30 a.m. on Monday. He thought he could get it done this time, but he didn't expect that the staff handling the matter was not there.
Lu Zhiguo asked the staff in other departments of the agricultural machinery department, and the result was that they didn't know. He asked if they could help with the matter. The answer was no, and he had to find the staff who handled the matter.
Lu Zhiguo had no choice but to ask for the mobile phone number of the clerk and call to inquire.
It was not possible to get through at first, but later it was finally possible. The clerk said that he would accompany the leader to the countryside for investigation and asked Lu Zhiguo to come back tomorrow.
Lu Zhiguo had no choice but to come back the next day, but the clerk was still not there. He called the clerk and said that he was still accompanying the leader to the countryside for research and might not be back in the near future. He asked Lu Zhiguo to wait until the next Monday.
Lu Zhiguo had no choice but to wait for a week and rush to the agricultural machinery department early next Monday.
As a result, the clerk was still not there. He called to say that he was back in the middle of the day, but now he was out for something else. Instead, he complained about why Lu Zhiguo hadn't come in the past few days?
Lu Zhiguo thought to himself: How did I know that you were back in the middle? You didn't tell me either.
But it’s hard to get angry when asking for help, so I have to ask when will you be here?
The clerk said something casually and postponed it to the next Monday.
As a result, the next Monday came and the clerk was still not there. I called and told him that he had something to do and asked for leave.
...In this way, Lu Zhiguo spent more than a month, almost breaking his leg, and never saw this mysterious clerk.
You know, now is the busy farming season. Lu Zhiguo has to do a lot of farm work every day, and he can't get away from it at all.
Moreover, although his home is in the suburbs, the shuttle bus has fixed times. A trip to Donglin City would take a whole morning or an afternoon, so how can he waste so much time on it.
Seeing that it was almost time for the second fertilization of the crops, Lu Zhiguo came to the agricultural machinery department again but could not find anyone. He felt so angry that he couldn't help but sit on the steps and started crying.
After hearing this, Chen Hao was a little surprised: "Uncle Lu, you can't find anyone every time you do something. This is obviously the fault of the agricultural machinery department. Why don't you complain to your superiors or call the sales hotline?"
Lu Zhiguo looked confused: "Complain?
I don’t know, I told you to call the leaders, but they all said they weren’t here. What’s the city manager’s hotline?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Hao understood that Lu Zhiguo had little information and did not know the channels for making complaints. He said gently: "It's okay, Uncle Lu. I know what to do. Come with me."
"good."
Lu Zhiguo responded.
The two of them walked into the agricultural machinery department one after the other.
"Why are you back again?"
The old man in the guard room of the agricultural machinery department was sitting boredly on his chair looking at his mobile phone. When he saw Lu Zhiguo, he asked in surprise.
"I'll ask again."
Lu Zhiguo said and pointed at Chen Hao: "He is with me."
The old man nodded, without any intention of asking Chen Hao's identity, and continued to look down at his phone.
Chen Hao and Lu Zhiguo walked through the corridor on the left and came to a closed department door.
Lu Zhiguo pointed to the door sign and said, "This is the department I want to apply for subsidies for."
Chen Hao looked up and saw the door sign saying Agricultural Machinery Management Section.
He reached out and pushed, and the door was locked and motionless.
"No one is here. I've been waiting for more than an hour and no one has come."
Lu Zhiguo spread his hands helplessly.
Chen Hao looked around and saw that the doors of other departments were also closed. He pointed and asked, "Is there no one here?"
Lu Zhiguo shook his head: "I don't know."
Chen Hao swept his consciousness and said: "Uncle Lu, come with me."
The two of them turned around and walked to the corridor on the right, stopping in front of the department door with the name "General Office" on the door.
Dunk, dunk, dunk... Chen Hao knocked on the door.
no respond.
Click, click, click... Chen Hao knocked on the door again.
"Who is it?
Come in."
An impatient female voice came from the door.
Chen Hao and Lu Zhiguo pushed open the door and walked in.
The comprehensive office is very large, covering hundreds of square meters. There are several workstations inside, but there is only one person behind one of the workstations.
It was a fat middle-aged woman in her forties, wearing home casual clothes, leaning on the back of a chair, wearing a headset and looking at the computer, while holding an open pack of Lay's potato chips and eating them with relish.
Although the computer had its back to Chen Hao and Lu Zhiguo, its spiritual consciousness still saw that a recently popular romantic drama was playing on it.
The fat middle-aged woman took off her headset, paused the computer screen, put down her potato chips, and without standing up, she looked at Chen Hao and Lu Zhiguo: "What are you doing? Are you okay?"
Chen Haodao: "Hello, this Uncle Lu and I came to see the staff of the Management Department to do something. However, Uncle Lu came several times and never found anyone and nothing was done. I would like to ask, what is the management department?
When will the staff be here?"
The middle-aged woman said: "I don't know, he's not here, just come back next time."
Chen Haodao: "The problem is that we have been here many times, but we are always absent. Because we can't do anything, it has delayed Uncle Lu's family's busy farming, and I'm afraid it will cause personal financial losses."
