Chapter 300 One Leg Left
Lu Ping said: "I heard that you used this gun to kill the devils and liberate the country, so I guess many people died with it.
This gun is a little unfair for a rough guy like me, but I haven't treated it badly.
I used it six times, and each time I investigated it thoroughly, I executed six people according to the law against abandoned babies. Each of them deserved death."
Luo Jiu nodded, "Well done, you can keep the gun."
Lu Qingyun gently reminded: "President Luo, according to regulations, comrades in the farmers' association are not allowed to carry guns."
Luo Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Then... return the bullets to me and leave the gun to you as a souvenir."
Lu Ping said happily, "Okay, I don't need it, but I'm happy to have it in my arms. But don't worry, our Farmers' Association is a force to be reckoned with wherever we go. Even if we don't have guns, I can still defeat those feudal remnants of landlords and gentry with sticks and fists."
Cheng Yaoyao listened at the side and said with a smile: "I know you can do it, so I will give you a parting gift. You can read it when you get on the bus."
Lu Ping was very happy, "Thank you, Minister Cheng."
Cheng Yaoyao handed her a box. Lu Ping couldn't help but quietly opened it and took a look. There was a beautiful fountain pen inside, and next to the pen there were a few bullets that had just been put in.
After the comrades from the Farmers’ Association left, the appointment order as the mayor of Yi County also arrived.
The Organization Department made an exception and promoted Geng Qiaoju to be the county magistrate.
Luo Jiu was holding the appointment order and was about to ask Lu Qingyun to deliver it to Geng Qiaoju when someone outside suddenly came in hurriedly to report, "President Luo, something happened to Village Chief Geng."
During the rainy season, landslides are likely to occur.
Geng Qiaoju received news from the county and went to notify the villagers working in the fields to evacuate urgently. On the way back, everyone encountered a mudslide. She pushed the elderly villagers away, but she was buried in the mudslide.
The villagers dug her out and rushed her to the hospital.
When Luo Jiu and others arrived at the hospital, the doctor had just come out of the operating room. A group of villagers surrounded him anxiously, "Doctor, how is Village Chief Geng?"
The doctor said, "Luckily she was brought here in time and she is out of danger. But her legs were injured and she can't get out of bed for at least half a month. She needs to rest well."
When Luo Jiu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhong Jialing wiped the sweat off her face and said, "It's okay, it's just a leg injury. I'll go back and look for it. We have a useful crutch in our space."
Cheng Yaoyao asked hurriedly: "She is injured like this, what should we do about the appointment? Should we replace her?"
Luo Jiu thought for a moment and said, "After she wakes up, I'll ask her opinion."
After Geng Qiaoju regained consciousness, Luo Jiu handed her the appointment order, "How is it? With such injuries, do you still want to be the Geng County Magistrate?"
Geng Qiaoju nodded vigorously, "Of course I do. When our village's funding was stuck in the county, I was thinking, it would be great if I were the county magistrate.
If the organization really lets me be the county magistrate, I will definitely be a good official and will never let the organization down."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "How can you take up the post when your leg is injured like this?"
Geng Qiaoju hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's just a broken leg.
God has been kind to me and left me with one leg, which is enough for me to do things for the people of Yi County.
As long as the people of Yi County become rich, it doesn’t matter if I lose both legs.
The doctor said that I can have the stitches removed in seven days, and I will start work in seven days, so I won’t delay my work.”
Cheng Yaoyao couldn't help but persuade her, "Don't be so stubborn. The doctor wants you to rest for half a month, so just stay in bed for half a month. At worst, we can leave later and help you sort out the county affairs first."
Zhong Jialing also said: "Your Yi County has lagged behind the rest of the country for so many years, and it won't be a matter of one or two days. Don't be impatient, just take your time."
Geng Qiaoju sighed, thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Dear leaders, I have a request. I would like to ask you to help Yi County."
Feng Qi: "How can I help? It's not my job to allocate funds or materials."
Geng Qiaoju smiled and said, "I don't want money or things. I just feel that our Yi County has become notorious throughout the country this time. Almost all newspapers across the country have published reports on how Ma Youguang, this dog official, has been ruining Yi County for thirty years.
I am afraid that many people's impression of Yi County will stop here, thinking that it is a backward and poor place. But the people of Yi County are making progress, and we also want to develop.
Isn't the whole country preparing for the Olympics? Can you designate Yixian as a designated selection county?
When the time comes, people from all the provinces south of the Yangtze River will come here to compete, and I want them to see the new look of Yi County."
Luo Jiu stroked his chin and thought about it, yes, they made such a fuss and gave others a bad reputation, so they should be given a chance to clear their name, right?
After all, this is a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers, delicious food and nice scenery. It is a good place to visit.
Without the corrupt officials in power, the people's faces are filled with joy, as if it were New Year.
So she said: "Okay, if you want Yi County to develop, you must first have a stable government and harmonious people, and I believe you can do that.
Secondly, we must take advantage of our own strengths and find the right path to development. Now farmers in the countryside have land to grow, and vendors in the city need customers.
We will use the Olympic trials to help you attract a wave of traffic.
These guests are the touchstone for testing whether Yi County is a good place. They come from all directions and then go back to all directions, and naturally they will bring your reputation out.
But whether this reputation is good or bad depends on what your Yixian government and the people do.”
Geng Qiaoju said happily: "Please rest assured, we will definitely seize this opportunity and perform well."
Training venues have already been built in the suburbs of Peking. They should also take advantage of the opportunity in Jiangnan to recruit talents, bring them back to Peking, and intensify the training in preparation for the Olympics.
The news of the selection in Yi County quickly spread through newspapers and radio. Many people who were originally going to go to Peiping to register, when they heard that they could choose in Yi County, which was close and convenient, hurried to Yi County.
The gates of Yi County are always open day and night to welcome guests from all over the world.
Geng Qiaoju walked around the inns and guesthouses on crutches to supervise reception work. "Don't take advantage of the opportunity to raise prices and cheat people. Each inn should supervise each other. If anyone raises prices, I will fine him until he closes down."
Aunt Ye smiled and said, "How deserted are our houses usually? We finally have so many customers, how could we raise the price to drive them away? We are all smart people, we won't do one-time business."
Geng Qiaoju said, "Yes, a steady stream of income will last a long time, and word of mouth is the most important. We in Yi County have received this wave of prosperity, and we will be able to have full houses every day in the future."
After inspecting the inn, she went to see the scenic spot.
At that time, it was not very popular to see mountains and rivers. Mountains and rivers were everywhere, nothing special. But there was a wonder in Yi County, which was Ma Youguang's home.
This place is truly amazing. Nationally renowned corrupt officials have lived here, including Luo Jiu, Feng Qi, Cheng Yaoyao, and Zhong Jialing.
According to previous handling methods, this house would be sealed and then demolished.
But this time Luo Jiu made the decision and didn't allow the demolition. It would be a shame to demolish such a high-cost house? Wouldn't it be better to turn waste into treasure and benefit the people?
