"Oh my god, Uncle Daqiang, you really did it!"
"Uncle Daqiang, I've already told you that I didn't tell on that bastard expert, why didn't you listen?"
"Uncle Daqiang, if you do this again, I will fight back!"
"I was wrong, Uncle Daqiang, I was wrong, but I really didn't tell tales!"
"Uncle Chengde, Grandpa Guang, please try to persuade him!"
"I really didn't tell tales! You guys are such a bully!"
"Brother! Brother! Stop fighting!"
Just as Gu Gang was squatting on the ground holding his head and wailing with his tone becoming more and more cowardly, Huo Qianli rushed down quickly and grabbed the furious Gu Daqiang and the rest of the people.
He shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with him. Beating people won't solve the problem."
He stood beside Gu Daqiang and lowered his voice, "We are village cadres, we can't just do it casually."
Gu Daqiang rolled up his sleeves and said, "I am not the village chief. I am now the uncle of this son of a bitch. It is only natural for me to educate my nephew."
Huo Qianli:......
This is the only convenience in the countryside. Your status depends on your mood and you don’t even need to change your clothes.
"Alright, alright!" Huo Qianli grabbed Gu Daqiang and said, "Don't do it here. Let's go back to the village committee and I'll tell you slowly."
Gu Daqiang then gave up and was half-heartedly pulled away by Huo Qianli.
Who knew that just as he took a step forward, Gu Gang angrily said, "Does that mean I got beaten for nothing?"
Gu Daqiang turned his head and glared at him. Gu Gang quickly said, "Uncle Daqiang, I didn't say anything to you. You can hit me as you like."
He looked at Huo Qianli and said, "Officer Huo, you came from the city, and you always said you would lead us to a good life. Now I'm being beaten because of you. It would be unreasonable for you not to express your opinion, right?"
He looked at everyone's faces, and quickly covered his waist with his hands, his face showing pain, "At least give me some medical expenses!"
Of course he knew that saying this now was a big risk, but he had no choice. Although Liu Shuai didn't ask him for the debt from selling the salvia miltiorrhiza, he had already lost four wallets' worth of money. Now he could barely even afford cigarettes.
In the past few months, he has come to realize that although Huo Qianli is a man of many thoughts, he is a good person. Maybe he can get the money from him if he squeezes him a little!
"I'll use your turtle to sell fried dough sticks!"
Without waiting for Huo Qianli to speak, Gu Daqiang turned around and kicked Gu Gang to the ground, "When you beat your wife, did you ever pay for her medical expenses?"
Huo Qianli felt disgusted. There were many seemingly hateful people in the village, but most of their hatefulness came from being forced to do so due to poverty and their lack of culture. They all had some shining points that were worth discovering.
Only Gu Gang is like mud that cannot be pasted on the wall, and he embodies all kinds of negative human nature.
He said coldly: "If you stop beating your wife, I will pay for your medical expenses."
The group of people slowly walked away. Gu Gang sat on the muddy ground in the yard and said, "You are nothing. I will make money next year and I won't care about your face!"
Xu Yanting came out of the room and helped him up, "Go change your clothes!"
Gu Gang turned his head to look at her and said coldly: "Your mother must feel relieved to see such a good show!"
Xu Yanting leaned sideways and looked at him with some fear. She saw him raise his right hand and subconsciously covered her face with it. But he just took out a cigarette case and cursed coldly, "Get lost! I'm so annoyed when I see you!"
......
In the meeting room of the village committee, Huo Qianli asked everyone to sit down, and then invited Jiang Qingyue, Gu Haitao, Lao Tang, Hu Lao and others to come.
"While everyone is here, I'll tell you all at once, so I don't have to explain it one by one."
Huo Qianli bowed to everyone and said, "First of all, I want to thank everyone for their concern for me. To be honest, I am very touched."
Gu Daqiang immediately waved his hand, "Hey, brother, you're welcome."
Gu Chengde also hurriedly said, "Officer Huo, it's alright, you're too polite."
"That's right!" Zhan Baoxing also spoke up, "It's too polite to say that!"
In fact, people outside the cooperative, such as Zhan Baoxing and Gu Chengde, have complicated attitudes towards Huo Qianli.
On the one hand, they still hold habitual vigilance and suspicion towards him, and will not support and help him as firmly as Gu Daqiang did;
But on the other hand, they also began to recognize what Huo Qianli did, especially those things that could benefit them, and gradually became willing to help him.
This created a very contradictory psychology. They were wary of and complained about Huo Qianli in private, but protected him in front of outsiders.
It's a bit like saying that they are family members and you can scold them but no one else can.
Perhaps they themselves did not notice this.
Huo Qianli nodded, "Let's not talk about that. Let's talk about business."
"Everyone knows that I was sent down from above. There are sixty people in total, including me, who were sent to various impoverished villages in Shuzhou Province. This ranking was made by the department that sent me down. Why did they make this? To put it bluntly, these sixty people are like a class. The class has an exam. Those who do well are rewarded, and those who do averagely get a few words of encouragement. Those who do poorly get nothing."
A voice suddenly asked, "Officer Huo, what's the reward?"
Someone immediately took over the conversation, "Is there any need to say more? You will get promoted and make a fortune!"
"You could say that!" Huo Qianli smiled. "I've been stationed in the village for three years in total. Why are the superiors doing this in less than half a year? Let's use exams as an example. If there is only one final exam, it doesn't matter if the students don't study hard, because they will be gone after the exam anyway! But if there is an exam every month, won't it work? The poor students will think about whether they can get a higher score next time, and the good students will think about maintaining this ranking. Suddenly, the average score of the whole class will go up."
