Chapter 249 Fatal Loophole



There are quite a few motorcycles parked in the dam of the town government today.

The village heads of the nine administrative villages in Qianfu Town now gathered outside the meeting room, gathering in groups of three or four, smoking and chatting.

Because of the previous "bold" action, the three villages of Zhuyang Village, Niujiao Village and Yaowang Village naturally came together as they were already familiar with each other and had a bit of revolutionary friendship.

A middle-aged man with a beard and a big belly came over with a smile, took out a cigarette from his pocket and smoked it around, saying with a smile: "You guys are quite courageous. You actually dare to come to this King of Hell to cause trouble!"

Gao Qiang, the head of Zhuyang Village, quickly waved his hand and said, "You can eat whatever you want, but you are not allowed to talk nonsense! We are here to report our work."

Huang Youquan, the head of Niujiao Village, said, "Secretary Huo is such a good person, you should stop giving him random nicknames."

Huang Youquan was older than everyone else, and his circle in the town was small. His beard pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything back. He spat on the ground casually and wiped it with his foot. "What do you think you called us here for?"

Gao Qiang chuckled, "You, the bearded man, don't even know your abilities, so how can we know?"

The bearded man raised his lips slightly when he heard this, and it was obvious that he was very pleased with the compliment.

Being recognized for one's abilities by people of the same level as one's peers is a joy that few people can refuse.

Huang Youquan thought about it and said, "No matter what it is, it should be a good thing."

The bearded man sighed, "I don't know if these good things will come to our heads!"

"Don't worry. Apart from Hushan Village, Mingfeng Village and Jinma Village, your Zhengfeng Village has the best conditions among the other villages. We will definitely give you priority if anything happens!"

Zhang Yongfa, the head of Yaowang Village, smiled and said, "When there is something good to gain, you should let us have some of it so that we can follow you and have a taste of the soup!"

"Haha, no problem."

The bearded man patted Zhang Yongfa's back heroically and laughed.

As he was talking, Gu Daqiang came up. The bearded man's expression changed immediately. He trotted a few steps and stretched out his hands. "Hey, Brother Daqiang! You're here for the meeting today, too!"

Gu Daqiang smiled and shook his hand. "Everyone from the whole town and every village is here. Does Hushan Village want to be treated specially?"

The bearded man shook his hand and took out a cigarette case and handed him a cigarette. Gu Daqiang reached out to take it, but held down his hand that was about to light the cigarette. "No, I guess the meeting will start soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, a staff member from the Party and Government Office stood at the door and shouted, "Everyone come in for the meeting."

Everyone filed in. Once they entered the house, the atmosphere suddenly became serious. The previous laughter disappeared and everyone sat down obediently in their seats.

Soon, Huo Qianli, Cao Qingfeng and Gao Yuanming walked in together.

Seeing everyone about to stand up to greet him, Huo Qianli quickly stretched out his hand to hold them back and said with a smile, "Everyone, sit down."

After everyone sat down, Huo Qianli looked around and smiled, "The last time I met you was when I went to the village meetings. How have you been these days?"

"Thanks to Secretary Ho, everything is fine!"

The brave ones howled and made everyone laugh.

"It's a good thing that everyone feels that life is good." Huo Qianli nodded, "But we think that everyone's life can still be improved through continuous efforts."

Everyone was startled. Huo Qianli glanced at the three people sitting together, including Huang Youquan, the village chief of Niujiao Village. "Some comrades came to me before and raised the issue of unbalanced economic development in our town. In fact, our new town leadership team has also noticed this."

The rest of the people looked at Huang Youquan and the other two with a smile on their faces, thinking that Huo Qianli was going to take the opportunity to give them a few beatings.

Unexpectedly, Huo Qianli continued: "I personally do not oppose this kind of behavior. I even encourage it. I hope everyone can communicate with our town committee and town government in a timely and reasonable manner, so that we can understand the most real situation."

"Okay, we've strayed off topic." Huo Qianli looked at the reserved people and said with a smile, "Everyone, don't be so reserved. Drink some water, smoke a cigarette, and relax."

Cao Qingfeng and Gao Yuanming also took out the cigarettes in their pockets and distributed one to everyone. Sure enough, everyone felt much more relaxed after lighting the cigarette.

These days, the trend of banning smoking has not yet spread to small towns like this, and non-smokers don’t think there is anything wrong with it.

Huo Qianli said, "Our country always talks about the rich leading the poor. Now Hushan Village has become rich in our town. It is time to play the role of a pioneer and make full use of experience to give back to everyone."

Gu Daqiang nodded and said with a smile: "Our present situation is given by the government. We will do whatever the government says, without hesitation!"

In the eyes of most people, Gu Daqiang's statement is just nonsense. Everyone knows his relationship with Huo Qianli. But sometimes, such nonsense is necessary. After all, he is also the main party involved in this matter.

Obviously, the people from other villages looked much more excited after hearing what Gu Daqiang said.

Huo Qianli hummed with satisfaction, "In the past, our Qianfu Town had a weak industrial foundation, and we had to find a breakthrough. Under the wise leadership and strong support of the county party committee and county government, we have embarked on a path of development of the Chinese medicinal materials industry with Salvia miltiorrhiza as the main industry and other medicinal materials as supplementary industries. It has also successfully transformed Hushan Village from the most backward and poorest provincial poverty-stricken village in the town to a well-known poverty-stricken village in the county and even the city."
