My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontline - Chapter 51
[Chapter 51 focuses on a warm-hearted person]
Binghu Village is located to the south of Jiuge City. The two places are more than 500 kilometers apart. Although the rain in Binghu Village is about to stop, Jiuge City is still experiencing light rain.
In a certain star hotel,
Liu Ning looked at the drizzle outside the window and didn’t know what to think. It wasn’t until a long time later that he turned and looked at He Shan behind him.
“The weather forecast said that the rain should stop in the afternoon. Should we set off in the afternoon?”
“Afternoon?”
He Shan, who was sitting on a chair playing games, suddenly raised his head.
“Yes! The chairman sent another message this morning asking about the situation at Xu Xing’s side!”
Liu Ning nodded.
During the period of rain, their life was very comfortable. Apart from dealing with Xu Lang’s inquiries, they spent every day eating, drinking, playing cards, and games. It was not too moist at all.
“Brother Liu, how did you give it back?”
He Shan lowered his head and started outputting frantically again.
“I said that because of the rain, Xu Xing was on the verge of collapse. We should wait for two or three days at most.”
Liu Ning came to the tea table and made himself a cup of black tea.
Although I am not in Ice Lake Town, is there any need to say this in this situation?
In an abandoned town, there is one person, an adobe house, an earthen pot stove, and it has been raining for several days. Not to mention the little flower in the greenhouse like Xu Xing, even wild survival masters like He Shan and Ma Chong are afraid. Can’t stand it.
Of course,
with a cabin, a stove and a pickup truck, safety is definitely not a big problem.
“Since I’ve told the chairman for two days, why don’t we leave tomorrow?”
He Shan said casually.
“Tomorrow?”
“Brother Liu, the rain hasn’t stopped here yet, and the road conditions must not be very good! It will probably be night when we get there! Think about it, it has been raining for a few days, our tents and stored things It’s impossible to live under the adobe.
And the visibility is not very good at night. I can’t see the specific situation in Xu Xing,”
He Shan explained.
“That’s true.”
Liu Ning took a sip of tea,
“Then let’s leave tomorrow?”
“We’ll leave early tomorrow morning, and we’ll probably arrive at one or two in the afternoon. Then we can pick Xu Xing up and get in the car, and maybe we can make it back in the evening. Jiuge City! It’s not perfect to fly back to Hong Kong City the day after tomorrow.”
He Shan nodded.
Before that, he had already bought the supplies he would need on the road, and he would be ready to go after getting up and washing up tomorrow.
“Okay, then I’ll do as you say!”
“Yeah!”
At the same time, in Asai County,
Bao Village cadre Li Mei was standing in front of the window with a cup of hot water, staring at the street in a daze. Residents traveling with umbrellas.
“Xiao Li, what are you thinking about?”
Seeing that Li Mei had not spoken for a long time, the male colleague at the back table put down his mobile phone and asked.
“Brother Zhang, do you know where to take the bus to Binghu Village?”
Turning around,
Li Mei looked at her colleagues with a sad look on her face.
“Huh? Are you going to Binghu Village so early? Isn’t it sunny yet?”
My colleague was stunned.
“I looked at the weather forecast. The rain will stop this afternoon!”
Li Mei returned to her seat.
“Then there’s no need to be in such a hurry! Hasn’t the PhD village party secretary already submitted the information on talent introduction?”
The colleague shook his head.
In his opinion, only college students like Li Mei who had just graduated would be so serious about their work. If he could solve the problem over the phone, he would never go to that place easily.
“The application has been submitted! But there are still a lot of paper materials to be handed over there. In addition, didn’t the county also send out a notice on the preliminary preparations for the characteristic rural selection? I thought about handing over the documents.”
Li Mei sighed.
When I worked as an assistant for Lu Li before, I thought the work was just like that. But when I started to work in the village, I realized that there were far more things than I imagined, even for a village of two people.
“Characteristic villages? Xiao Li! You really are. Let me tell you the truth, look at the other Baocun cadres, who cares about the preliminary preparations for this kind of characteristic villages? The review team will never come to our Asai County, okay?”
Besides!
Your Binghu Village is in ruins. Do you still expect it to be rated as a characteristic village?
When the time comes, it will be a good poverty-stricken village!”
Upon hearing this, my colleague almost said, “Are you stupid? “Write it on your face.
“But”
Li Mei hesitated and glanced at the red-headed document on the table.
“But what? I’m not trying to hit you! Not to mention that there is no bus passing by there at all! Even if you can come back after a day? You will have to live in a tent at night! The most important thing is that if there are no passing buses in the next few days, How can you come back?
The little girl’s family is so dangerous!”
the male colleague said again.
“Then… isn’t there the village party secretary and village director?”
Li Mei’s face became increasingly ugly.
“Village party secretary and village director? They are both intellectuals. They can take good care of themselves. Why do you expect them? Xiao Li, you really listen to me! Now you can stay in the county with peace of mind and learn more from your old colleagues. , and it won’t delay your progress!
If you really want to go,
wait until the weather clears up later, rent a car in the county, and go back the same day!”
the male colleague advised.
“That”
Li Mei hesitated, and finally did not speak.
But judging from her expression, it was obvious that she had accepted her colleague’s suggestion.
Time passed by, and it was three o’clock in the afternoon. The sky above Binghu Village finally cleared up, and it was a clear blue, ushering in the long-lost sun.
At this time,
there was a lot of noise in front of the campsite.
I saw seven semi-trailers parked on the edge of the national highway, and dozens of workers were unloading the trucks. Xu Xing was chatting with a man in his forties at the campsite.
“Boss Xu, are you planning to set up an outdoor camping site here? You are really young and promising!”
After a moment,
the man looked at Xu Xing. He was none other than Li Zhijun, the building materials boss who came to deliver bricks and tiles to Xu Xing.
“Yeah!”
Xu Xing nodded.
At around ten o’clock this morning, Liu Ming, who was excited about the Yiyuan drawings, took Zhang Dapeng and two other workers to the county town to purchase supplies, but he has not returned yet.
The remaining seven workers were moving things together with the people brought by Li Zhijun.
“Boss Xu, your place is actually quite good! There is no village in front of it or any store in the back. There should be many passing teams and cycling enthusiasts who will rest and replenish their supplies here! But the investment is certainly not small!”
Li Zhijun looked around, especially After seeing the three rows of Sophora japonica trees surrounding the open space, he gave Xu Xing a thumbs up.
“It’s not small! There are problems with water and electricity now.”
Xu Xing did not explain or deny.
“Ah? The water and electricity haven’t been solved yet? How are the water and electricity solved now?”
Li Zhijun’s eyes widened when he heard that the water and electricity had not been solved yet, his face full of disbelief.
When he thought about it,
he was going to build a campsite, and the first step to solve it must be water and electricity.
“What we drink now is mineral water and we use a diesel generator.”
Xu Xing said casually.
“That’s not a solution in the long run. Some places need to be powered on all the time. We can’t always use diesel generators and the cost is still high.”
Li Zhijun seemed a little familiar and actually worried about Xu Xing. He was a warm-hearted person.
“We’ll see what happens later.”
Xu Xing also knew that this would not last long, especially after Yiyuan was built, uninterrupted water circuits would be needed.
“Water and electricity. Let me think about water and electricity. Boss Xu, if you didn’t tell me, I really wouldn’t have thought of it! I know a friend who posted a message on Moments two days ago. If you are interested, he might be able to solve your electricity problem. Question.”
After a pause,
Li Zhijun suddenly thought of something and looked at Xu Xing hurriedly.
