Excellent little farmer

The two chatted in a low voice for a few words and then hung up the phone. Zhong Yetang smiled and closed his eyes. In the past ten days, he could clearly feel the change in the attitude of the people around him towards him. It was a very intuitive change. , the smiles became more numerous, and the indifference disappeared. He was not quite used to this feeling in the first few days. From being ignored to being valued, it seemed like it happened overnight.

Even Liu Huaxuan, who usually treated him coldly, became reserved now, and his originally deserted mobile phone suddenly became lively. Almost everyone in the county party committee knew that he, Zhong Yetang, had finally turned around.

Of course, only Feng Xiaoshan remained unchanged, still floating beside him in an aloof manner, caring for him with silent tenderness. However, Zhong Yetang did not dare to accept that heavy feeling, and even thought about it, he had the idea of ​​committing a crime.

The car left Dongguan Town and drove on the hot suet road. The scorching sun hung in the air and baked the ground like a furnace. It was already October in the golden autumn. In the fields in the distance, there were four or five harvesters. Busy in the golden rice fields, there are many farmers wearing bamboo hats bending down to harvest, and there is a steaming harvest scene everywhere.

I didn't know when I opened my eyes, smiled and looked out the car window. At this moment, my cell phone suddenly rang rapidly. I looked at the number and saw that it was Li Yongcang. I quickly answered the phone and said softly: " Hello! Secretary Li, hello."

"County Magistrate Ye, where are you now?" Li Yongcang's voice on the phone was urgent, as if something important had happened.

My heart sank, and I quickly said calmly: "Secretary Li, I am on my way to Huanglong Town. According to the original plan, I will visit several companies in the afternoon for investigation."

"Don't go to Huanglong Town yet. Something happened in Dawang Township. Someone smashed the township government and the police station. It's a big deal. We need to control the situation as soon as possible. I'm in the provincial capital now and can't make it back tonight. County Magistrate Cao is in the city. During the meeting, Wan Chaoyang and several other members of the Standing Committee drank too much with the leaders of the Provincial Department of Water Resources at noon and were unable to come forward. From now on, you will represent the county committee and the county government to solve the problem. You must calm down the situation as soon as possible. You should contact the deputy county magistrate in charge as soon as possible and go to Dawang Township with him. If necessary, you can contact Chen Lei from the County Public Security Bureau, but do not intensify the conflict unless it is absolutely necessary."

My heart suddenly thumped! ’ After a while, although Li Yongcang said it in a vague way, his meaning was already obvious. Something happened in Dawang Township, otherwise he would not have said it so seriously. I hurriedly said: "Secretary Li, please don't worry, I will be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, I quickly shouted to the driver, Xiao Sun: "Change the route immediately and go to Dawang Township. Hurry!"

Xiao Sun immediately turned the car around, stepped on the accelerator, and drove back at a lightning speed. He was also a little nervous. From my expression, he also felt that something was wrong.

I didn't have time to explain, so I turned around and said: "Yetang, please immediately notify Secretary Cheng of Huanglong Town that the afternoon trip is cancelled, and then immediately help me contact the township party committee secretary and township chief of Dawang Township and ask them to report the situation to me immediately. "

As soon as I finished speaking, my cell phone rang. After I answered the call, I heard someone inside shouting: "County Magistrate Ye? I'm Miao Yuehua."

I nodded and said, "Deputy County Magistrate Miao, where are you?"

Miao Yuehua said loudly: "I'm at the gate of the County Cultural Center. I'm taking a taxi heading east. I'll wait for you at Sanchakou in ten minutes."

I'm! ' He made a sound and said calmly: "Okay, Deputy County Magistrate Miao, how much do you know about the situation in Dawang Township?"

Miao Yuehua said anxiously: "County Magistrate Ye, I just received a call from Secretary Li. I'm not sure about the specific situation."

I sighed in disappointment, shook my head repeatedly and said, "Then you contact Director Chen of the Public Security Bureau as soon as possible and ask him to bring someone to meet at Sanchakou."

Miao Yuehua nodded quickly and said, "Okay, County Magistrate Ye, I will contact Director Chen Lei right away."

I nodded, hung up the phone, turned around, and said to Zhong Yetang, who was sitting in the back seat: "Yetang, have you contacted the party committee secretary and mayor of Dawang Township?"

Zhong Yetang said anxiously: "Not yet, County Magistrate Ye, it's really strange that these two people actually turned off their mobile phones."

I frowned and urged Xiao Sun to drive faster. Before I could reach the Sancha intersection, I received a call from Director Chen. The seriousness of the matter was beyond imagination. The Dawang Township Party Committee Secretary and Township Chief were arrested by hundreds of people. The masses were under control, but the situation was unclear. Director Li of the township police station ran for more than ten miles across the land and made a phone call to an acquaintance's house in a natural village. The cause of the incident turned out to be just the potato purchase issue...

Halfway through, through two phone calls with Director Chen and Director Li, I finally understood the whole story. It turned out that at the beginning of the year, the manager of Chunhua Seed Company in Lingtai County came to the Dawang Township Government to recommend their new products. , "Xinnong No. 5" potatoes, the two parties quickly reached an agreement, and the township officials will come forward to work in each village to encourage farmers in the township to plant this new type of potatoes, while Chunhua Seed Company is responsible for providing seeds, fertilizers and technology Support and recycle at the lowest protected price of eighty cents per kilogram.

This was originally a good thing. There was a guarantee from the township government, it was written in black and white on the contract, and the price was fair. This year, nearly a thousand farmers in Dawang Township planted "Xinnong No. 28.7" potatoes, and they planted potatoes in as many as ten areas. Three or four acres, as little as five or six acres. According to statistics, Chunhua Seed Company sold as many as 26.8 kilograms of potato seeds to farmers in Dawang Township, with the seed price worth yuan. Last month, when it came time to harvest potatoes, the company refused to harvest them under various excuses. What made the farmers even more angry was that the "Xinnong No. " potatoes they planted in accordance with the contract were not available in Jiangzhou. There is no market, and even the vegetable vendors are unwilling to accept it. The direct economic loss may be more than one million yuan.

The villagers went to the county town to argue with the company, but found that the building was empty. They were disappointed and had to go to the township government to seek justice, because they had signed the contract with Chunhua Seed Company at the call of the township government.

In their opinion, the township government had the responsibility to help them recover their losses. However, after several visits, the township head Mao Xinzhu sent them back with various excuses and summoned more than a dozen village chiefs from Dawang Township. After a meeting, if these potatoes can't be sold, you can eat them yourself. If people can't eat them, you can feed them to animals. Let's forget about it. No one can make unreasonable troubles anymore.

The conflict intensified in the morning. More than a dozen farmers went to the township government to argue and had a dispute with the township government staff. In the end, the two sides took action. The township head Mao Xinzhu called Director Liu and asked him to bring the police and the police. The security guards arrested these people, but they did not expect this to be a big deal. In less than half a day, hundreds of people came from nearby villages. People who lost control of their emotions smashed the township government and the police station, and destroyed the township party committee. The secretary and the mayor were tied to the basketball stand on the playground of Xingfu Primary School in Dawang Township, and things got a little out of hand.

After I learned about this situation, I felt that this was a typical riot caused by an incident of cheating farmers. The township government must be responsible for this matter. If we want to solve the problem smoothly, we must find the spring house. Hua Seed Company, let them fulfill their responsibilities in the contract and return the arrears to the villagers of Dawang Township. Only in this way can the matter be resolved satisfactorily. But since the whereabouts of that company is unknown, the government department should now take responsibility. Let’s calm down the situation first.

After thinking about it, I called Li Yongcang, secretary of the county party committee, and explained the situation briefly and concisely. I also suggested that the county finance department should allocate funds to advance part of the potato purchase price to solve the livelihood problems of the injured farmers and stabilize the mood of the farmers. At the same time, the public security organs were ordered to trace the whereabouts of the owner of Chunhua Seed Company in an effort to recover the losses, and immediately report the matter to all towns and villages, asking them to check for similar situations to avoid such incidents from happening again.

Li Yongcang agreed, and I immediately called Cao Yuan and ordered him to handle the matter in a special way and transfer the funds to Dawang Township as soon as possible.

After arriving at the Sancha intersection, four police cars were parked on the side of the road. I did not get out of the car, but opened the window, greeted Deputy County Magistrate Miao Yuehua and Director Chen Lei, and then led the convoy to Dawang Township. Go up, I am worried, I am afraid that before I get there, I will cause a big mess, which will be difficult to clean up.

The car drove on the road for nearly an hour and finally arrived at Dawang Township. It stopped at the entrance of Xingfu Primary School, only to see hundreds of people crowded in the playground inside. It was noon and there were some people sitting and others standing. Many people were still holding hoes and shovels in their hands, and they were all talking. However, the two township leaders had been loosened and surrounded in the middle. They were arguing loudly with several people around them. It turned out that the farmers who were causing trouble After calming down, I felt that the matter was too big and I didn't know how to end it. As soon as the police car arrived, I became a little timid, and some timid people slipped quietly along the wall.

Director Chen and others protected me, separated the chaotic crowd, and walked inside. Deputy County Magistrate Miao Yuehua shouted: "Everyone, please be quiet. I am Deputy County Magistrate Miao Yuehua. The county takes this matter very seriously. I have specifically entrusted County Magistrate Ye to handle this matter, and now I would like to ask Magistrate Ye to speak."
