There was a wry smile on Mr. Bai's lips. He was probably mentally prepared and guessed that Zhang Yuanqing was not that kind of vulgar person.
Previously, he had tried to use various connections to encourage Wan Youjun and Jin Zhen, and further influence Sun Xiwen, hoping to anger each other so that the two sides could meet.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuanqing resolved it easily and was not even interested in coming to Bai's house. It fully demonstrates the gap between the two sides' ranks.
This time, the methods used to force him to come were even worse. Fortunately, Zhang Yuanqing finally came.
After all, Mr. Bai didn't give up despite not seeing each other.
Seeing Zhang Yuanqing shaking his head, Mr. Bai knew that this young man had a firm will that no one else could shake. It is impossible to change some of his ideas by any means.
Given his personality, it would be extremely difficult to arrange someone for him.
Mr. Bai slowly lamented: "Taking the real estate book... can be regarded as atonement for the Bai family to the people of Bai Peng Town who have been oppressed."
The young man was not dissatisfied at all. He came forward with a plate and took out a notarized gift document from his body.
Obtaining this document will save the demolition costs of these seven households. There may be some moving expenses, but it’s nothing.
After getting the house book and documents, Zhang Yuanqing did not leave immediately. Instead, he walked into the main room, dragged a bench and sat next to the old man: "Mr. Bai, I thank you for your righteousness. At least at this time, you have done a good job for all of Bai Peng Town. The people have done another good thing. So I am willing to talk to you more.
Let future generations walk their own path. What you said about family inheritance certainly makes sense. But I have also heard a saying, a house that accumulates good deeds will always be blessed. It seems useful to leave money and connections to your descendants, so why not pass on your spirit? "
As Zhang Yuanqing talked, he listed in detail the heroic deeds Mr. Bai had done. He led the people in the town to fight bandits and led everyone to build the dam. It can be said that it was a wonderful life of fighting against heaven and earth.
Every time he mentioned something, Mr. Bai's eyes became more radiant. When he was dying, he recalled his magnificent life as if watching a movie in his mind.
Those vague emotions seemed to come back to me again.
Zhang Yuanqing said: "Isn't this wealth? This wealth is far better than everything you have worked hard to manage for them. I am not a pedantic person. Although we have had conflicts in the past, now we will return to dust.
I have no hostility toward your Bai family ancestral hall. I hope that the Bai family’s ancestral hall can be retained, but not only the tangible things, but also the intangible things such as patriotism, love for the people, and justice.
The Bai family in the future will be a family with many heroes and a respected family. Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving pictures to illuminate history. I hope that all the descendants of the Bai family will be like dragons and have a pure heart, leading our Bai Peng Town to take off economically and support all the people. "
Mr. Bai's eyes flashed with light, but he didn't reply immediately.
The young man standing on the side looked at Zhang Yuanqing in surprise, with a moved expression on his face.
"Old man... I have learned a lesson..." Mr. Bai sighed slowly, as if he had put down some baggage, and his face gained some color.
Zhang Yuanqing didn't know whether he had a comeback or whether the burden in his heart was relieved. So after hearing what he said, I stood up and left.
Looking at Zhang Yuanqing's back, Mr. Bai slowly closed his eyes and said calmly: "Qing Ming, do you still remember the "Song of Righteousness" I taught you? Recite it to me, louder."
Bai Qingming immediately recited aloud: "The heaven and earth have righteousness, and they are mixed and endowed with manifolds. Below are the rivers and mountains, and above are the sun and stars. To people, it is said to be vast, and it is so abundant that it blocks the sky. The imperial road should be clear and clear, and it should be clear and clear. . When the time comes, we will see each other, and we will draw pictures one by one..."
Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but pause slightly when he heard the recitation behind him. A smile appeared on his lips, maybe this was the best ending.
Instead of a life-and-death struggle, it is better to work together towards a better future.
After returning, he handed the house book to the working group. These seven books caused quite a stir in the town compound.
Guan Qingyun reacted the fastest and immediately demanded that Mr. Bai be commended and rewarded, and he also wanted to write a big book about it.
Zhang Yuanqing was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant, and had to admit that he was very satisfied with his work. Mr. Bai donated seven houses. If he was commended at this time, it would also comfort the old man who supported the construction of Baipeng Town with real money.
Don't worry about whether they are atonement or something, it's like Chu Cheng saving other people's children before he died. Could it be that just because Chu Cheng was a corrupt official, the child's family could ignore the life-saving grace and spit on Chu Cheng's body?
Mr. Bai deserves punishment for doing evil things and rewards for doing good things. This also establishes the correct direction of public opinion.
Secondly, this commendation also takes advantage of the celebrity effect. Even Mr. Bai obediently donated his book. Others who want to cause trouble must consider whether you are bigger than Mr. Bai.
Sure enough, after the town government commended Mr. Bai with great fanfare, the subsequent demolition work went particularly smoothly. Even among the remaining dozen or so families, one family also expressed its intention to donate its property.
However, Zhang Yuanqing sent someone over to inquire and found out that this family was not well off. He quickly asked people to do ideological work and asked them to make decisions based on the actual situation.
After all, Mr. Bai can still live a good life even if he donated seven properties. Some people donated their houses, but then they had to rent a house to live.
Building bridges and roads is blind, but killing people and setting fires are common. This kind of thing is not what Zhang Yuanqing wants to see. Kind-hearted people should still do good deeds based on the actual situation. Instead of donating a house, you can do something within your ability, such as being a volunteer or something, which is still a way of giving back to the society.
With the strong support of all the townspeople, the road construction work has been advanced in many areas. It is very likely that the groundbreaking ceremony will be ushered in before the holiday.
While all work is being carried out in an orderly manner, the end of the year is slowly approaching.
A remote town like Bai Peng Town is particularly lively during the Chinese New Year. The closer we get to the New Year, the stronger the New Year atmosphere becomes. Every household is decorated with lanterns and colorful firecrackers to welcome the New Year.
There are also fewer and fewer office staff in the town government.
Although there will be no holiday on New Year's Eve this year, companies and units are required to arrange holidays as much as possible. Therefore, Zhang Yuanqing took the lead and relaxed the approval of annual leave while ensuring that he was on duty.
So many people took turns celebrating the New Year. Of course, no one dared to touch the team members. Everyone was staring at Zhang Yuanqing, waiting for when he would speak.
Zhang Yuanqing first assigned tasks to the team and took advantage of the year to complete all the condolence work.
Then on New Year's Eve, everyone took turns taking breaks according to the duty schedule.
Originally, Zhang Yuanqing planned to stay on duty on New Year's Eve and the first and second days of the new year, but he did not expect Zhou Qiangbin's call. Zhou Qiangbin was on the phone and asked him to rush there on New Year's Eve and invite him to a New Year's Eve dinner in Jiangbei City.
When the old leader had an appointment, Zhang Yuanqing immediately changed his mind and chose to take a vacation to Jiangbei City first.
Although it was only more than a month since the last meeting, Zhang Yuanqing has always been thinking about this old leader very much.
