Zhang Sanchuan spent three days in the county hospital receiving fluids, then went through the discharge procedures. When he returned to Siwei Village, Songguan Town, he immediately organized the start of work.
However, a new problem arose. All the water and electricity already connected to the orchard hills were destroyed.
Among them, the most serious one is the water source problem. The water source for the orchard irrigation in Siwei Village is piped from Qingquan Village on the side, and a contract was signed with the company responsible for water diversion and the cost was paid.
Now, the water diversion pipeline has not been damaged, but the water diversion company will not release the water. Zhang Sanchuan went to the water diversion company to argue, but the company manager only said that he was "notified by the town government that water is not allowed to be supplied to the Siwei Village orchard planting base!"
When Chen Shaoping learned the news, he was furious. He drove straight to the Songguan Town Government on the spot to find Li Qingming and Zhao Jianhua.
Chen Shaoping came down to Songguan Town without saying hello in advance. When he angrily walked into the office of the town committee secretary, Li Qingming and Zhao Jianhua were sitting leisurely at the desk drinking tea, telling dirty jokes, and sitting beside them. There is a young and beautiful female office clerk.
Li Qingming and Zhao Jianhua were not surprised by Chen Shaoping's sudden arrival, and of course they had no intention of welcoming them.
"Oh, Deputy Director Chen is here. What a rare guest..."
Li Qingming was sitting on the sofa and did not even stand up to shake hands with Chen Shaoping. He was not polite at all!
There is a rule in Cangyang officialdom: greetings without the word "vice". For example: when Li Qingming was in the Agricultural Bureau, he was the deputy director, but no one would call him Deputy Director Li, but Director Li; similarly, Zhang Weiming was the deputy county magistrate in Cangyang, and no one would call him "Director Li". Deputy County Magistrate Zhang is called County Magistrate Zhang instead.
Li Qingming deliberately called Chen Shaoping "Deputy Director Chen", which was a bit deliberately insulting.
Chen Shaoping didn't know this, but at this time he was no longer the dispensable clerk of the Agriculture Bureau. He had been with the county magistrate for more than three months, and his character had become quite mature.
"Secretary Li, I heard that the town government cut off the irrigation water to the Siwei Orchard planting base?" Chen Shaoping asked calmly.
Li Qingming pretended to be surprised and looked at Zhao Jianhua who was standing aside: "Is there such a thing? Why didn't I know?"
Zhao Jianhua smiled proudly: "If you, the secretary of the town committee, don't know, how can I, the mayor, know about it?" After saying that, Zhao Jianhua looked at Chen Shaoping with disdain: "I just don't know why this rumor came from a deputy director of the county government. Say it out of your mouth?”
Chen Shaoping is the secretary of the county magistrate Li Yixiang. Most of the time he appears in places, he represents the authority of the county magistrate. Zhao Jianhua is the only township mayor in Cangyang who dares to speak to Chen Shaoping like this.
Zhao Jianhua made it clear that he had a problem with Chen Shaoping and wanted to settle all his personal grudges with the Agriculture Bureau.
"Since it's not you, then it's easy!" Chen Shaoping turned around and walked out of the town government, holding back the anger in his heart. He took Zhang Sanchuan and Zhong Shanmei directly to the water diversion company and found the water diversion company halfway up the mountain behind Qingquan Village. The water diversion company asked for an explanation.
There are only three office workers in the three-story office building of the water diversion company, and there is no one in charge.
Chen Shaoping got the phone number of Manager Wang of the water diversion company in the office and dialed it directly: "I am Chen Shaoping from the Cangyang County Government. I am currently at the water diversion company behind Qingquan Village. Please come over immediately!"
Manager Wang was playing mahjong in Qingquan Village nearby. Hearing that someone from the county government was here, he didn't dare to neglect and quickly rode his electric bike back to the water diversion company.
"I am Chen Shaoping, deputy director of the Government Office. I am here to find out about the water supply cutoff at the Siwei Village orchard planting base!" Chen Shaoping said seriously.
Manager Wang thought that there were many people from the county government, but when he saw that Chen Shaoping was the only one, he felt no pressure and said with a smile: "Director Chen, this has nothing to do with me. It is entirely an order from the Songguan Town Government. I have no There’s a way!”
"Who in the town government gave you the order? Is there any written material? Show it to me!" Chen Shaoping asked immediately.
"Yes, yes... I don't know which one, anyway, it was them who called me!" Manager Wang said.
"I just came from the town government, and there is no such thing! You are a rumor-mongering government, and you can be sentenced!" Chen Shaoping said sternly.
"Yes, yes...the call was not to me, but to our head office. The head office called me and said it was an order from the town government. I don't know the details..." Manager Wang immediately changed the subject and asked Go to the head office.
"Who is your head office?" Chen Shaoping continued to ask.
"Cangyang Water Supply Company!" Manager Wang replied.
Chen Shaoping's heart sank when he heard the name of this company. The legal person of this company was Qian Long, the richest man in Cangyang.
Chen Shaoping immediately asked for the phone number of the water supply company. The other party passed all the responsibility on the phone to his boss Qian Long, saying that the boss Qian Long had told him about the matter and they didn't know. Then he gave Qian Long's phone number to Chen Shaoping. , as a result, Chen Shaoping called three times in a row, but the other party didn't answer at all.
Chen Shaoping went directly to Cangyang Water Company to demand an explanation, but he was still asked to call boss Qian Longqian!
After a tiring day of running around, but no progress in things, Chen Shaoping only now deeply felt the saying that people often say: "It's hard to get things done!"
He is now the deputy director of the government office and the secretary of the county magistrate Li Yixiang. He spent a whole day dealing with the problem of cutting off the irrigation water in an orchard but still had no solution.
If this were an ordinary person, I don’t know how many obstacles he would encounter...
"When will this evil be completely resolved?" Chen Shaoping sighed secretly in his heart.
After running for a day, he was quite exhausted and was not allowed to go back to the county seat, so he rested for the night at his hometown in Siwei Village.
As night fell, Chen Shaoping, Zhang Sanchuan, Zhong Shanmei, sister Chen Shaoli and her classmates were all sitting in the yard enjoying the shade.
"Shaoping, why is it so difficult for ordinary people to do something now? We still follow the policy. Why is it so difficult to do anything?"
Zhang Sanchuan lit a cigarette and said with great emotion.
Chen Shaoping also lit a cigarette silently, took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Maybe it's only so difficult for us in Cangyang, and other places will be better..."
Chen Shaoping knew the root cause, but in front of so many people, he couldn't say it.
"It's not like... that man named Wang covers the sky with one hand!" Zhong Shanmei said coldly from the side.
Chen Shaoping said nothing and continued to smoke.
"Brother, now there is no water in the orchard and the fruit trees cannot be planted. What should I do..."
Chen Shaoan asked anxiously. He knew that Zhang Sanchuan and Zhong Shanmei had invested millions in it.
