Rebirth 80: Start by earning money to build a brick house

The atmosphere in the brigade headquarters was very solemn. The weather at the end of May was already extremely hot, but the room was as cold as ice.

Zhang Zhonghe felt uneasy and couldn't figure out what was going on.

Zhang Ziming even stared at him, why did he ask him to come over?

In addition to the commune cadres, everyone here is also a member of the brigade branch. Is it possible that they are forced to give themselves a position?

The atmosphere doesn’t look like it, does it?

The other branch committee members were even more puzzled. Could there be another struggle?

The villagers outside the house, because they didn't know the inside story, thought it was the commune leaders who came to inspect again. They came to inspect yesterday, Zhang Zhonghe went to the commune for another meeting this morning, and the leaders came again in the afternoon. They all thought it was a good thing.

In the brigade headquarters, Deputy Secretary Liu cleared his throat and spoke:

"Now that everyone is here, let me tell you the purpose of my visit. The county received a report letter this morning. The content of the letter is related to your Bottle Village brigade. At noon today, the county contacted the commune. Secretary Guo immediately arranged for me to come over to investigate this matter."

Report letter?Zhang Zhonghe is a bit confused, and even after thinking about it, he can't think of any problems that would lead to him being reported.

Zhang Ziming also didn't understand why he was asked to come here because of the report letter. He was not a brigade cadre.

"Zhonghe, the content of the report letter is as follows. Zhang Ziming and Accountant Xu should also listen carefully..."

Deputy Secretary Liu's face was as stern as ice. There was a big gap between doing business and chatting in private.

After hearing Deputy Secretary Liu finish the contents of the report letter, several people almost slammed the table and cursed at the same time.

The first is to be angry; the second is to be cowardly, and you can still write a letter of report for this.

Several people slammed the table at the same time, which startled Deputy Secretary Liu. However, looking at the expressions on their faces, there was a huge contrast with the tense state just now, so I guessed that nothing was wrong.

Then he said calmly:

"Zhonghe, this report letter involves the innocence of the grassroots brigade secretary, so everyone from the county to the commune attaches great importance to it. I have also told you the content. Which of you will explain it first? You first?"

After hearing this and the contents of the report letter, Zhang Zhonghe was not in a hurry, lit up his cigarette bag, and thought about who would write this report letter.

The same goes for Zhang Ziming. Who wrote this report letter?Isn't it too cowardly to be tricked like this and you still don't know who it is?

If this time passes like this, will there be a second time?

Fortunately, I followed the formal path from the beginning. All the money I borrowed was witnessed and signed by the branch committee members. Accountant Xu made regular entries into the accounts, and all the IOUs were stamped with the official seal of the brigade.

If I had just wanted to save trouble and handed it over to Zhang Zhonghe casually, how could I have made it clear?

Accountant Xu is a professional bookkeeper, and all the accounts of the brigade are in his hands. The content of the report letter is simply nonsense.

Seeing that neither Zhang Zhonghe nor Zhang Ziming spoke, Accountant Xu spoke first:

"Deputy Secretary Liu, the report letter is nonsense."

"Is this all nonsense? You have to provide evidence. Just bring out the evidence. If you are innocent, it will be easier for me. Of course I personally believe you, but the investigation must follow organizational procedures." Deputy Secretary Liu said calmly.

Several other branch committee members also felt very ridiculous when they heard the content of the report letter, because several of their branch committee members had witnessed and signed the whole thing, and they were also very angry with the person who wrote the report letter.

"Of course there is evidence. It's just Secretary Liu. We have proven his innocence. Can the commune help investigate the person who wrote the report letter? This is pure slander."

Accountant Xu naturally understood the look in Zhang Zhonghe and Zhang Ziming's eyes, and then asked about the source of the report.

"Prove your innocence first. We will investigate the source issue after we report the results to the county."

Deputy Secretary Liu controlled the tempo of the meeting and solved the current problems first. As for the source of the problem, he could not make the decision.

The content mentioned in the report letter is as follows:

Zhang Ziming borrowed money from the brigade department at a high interest rate. The brigade department promised to return Zhang Ziming at the agreed high interest rate. The principal belonged to Zhang Ziming, and the high-interest portion was shared equally by Zhang Zhonghe, Zhang Ziming, and Accountant Xu. They severely condemned such infringement of collective rights and interests. Behavior.

The content of the report letter was completely fabricated. Accountant Xu took out the village’s account book and said:

"Deputy Secretary Liu, this is the village's account book. The incoming and outgoing accounts are here. The loan certificates are in duplicate, both are here. Zhang Ziming also has a copy. You can go back and get it."

Deputy Secretary Liu arranged for an entourage to follow Zhang Ziming home to get the loan certificate.

After a few minutes.

"Deputy Secretary Liu, here are the two copies of the loan certificate. Zhang Ziming loaned it to the brigade without interest. He didn't even ask for interest. Why are you talking about high interest? Isn't this a joke?"

The rest of the brigade committee members also echoed that it would be difficult to get rid of the outrage if we didn't investigate the source of this matter.

Deputy Secretary Liu and several people accompanying him were looking at the account books and loan certificates. The records on them were indeed very clear.

The start-up capital of the two factories totaled 41000 yuan, of which 1 yuan was borrowed from the credit union, and the remaining 31000 yuan was lent by Zhang Ziming to the brigade. The loan certificates and account books were clearly recorded.

There's really nothing wrong with that.

Deputy Secretary Liu and others then gave Zhang Ziming a high look and said that they did not want any interest at all. This was purely a contribution to the village.

"Zhang Ziming, what did you think about it at that time? Do you really want no interest at all?"

Although Deputy Secretary Liu believed it, he still asked.

"Secretary, since you are contributing to the brigade, why do you need to repay it? If the brigade is rich, all of us members will surely benefit from it. It is enough to benefit from it, but not to take advantage."

Zhang Ziming said truthfully.

Zhang Zhonghe, who had been smoking next to him, also spoke:

"I know this kid Ziming. At that time, he said he was going to help the brigade set up a factory. I didn't doubt it at all. This kid has a kind heart. The commune needs to help check the source of this report letter. Otherwise, wouldn’t this chill people’s hearts?”

What Zhang Zhonghe said is reasonable. Although he has opened two factories now, it does not mean that Zhang Ziming will not be needed in the future.

Maybe there will be any good ideas in the future. If I don't get to the bottom of this this time, how can I be worthy of Zhang Ziming?

It doesn't matter to me or Accountant Xu. The key is that Zhang Ziming, who has both money and ideas, needs to be protected.

Deputy Secretary Liu naturally agreed. Now that the contents of the report are clear, it would be easier for him to do business.

But when he was about to leave, a member of his entourage asked another question, which made Zhang Ziming sigh secretly.

Fortunately, I had made arrangements at the time, so I wouldn't delve into this issue. It would probably be over when we got to Xu Yimin's place.If you want to continue asking questions, of course you should be prepared.
