Chapter 1589 Investigation Team (II)
When the captain arrived at the village office, he saw the other two captains in the village chatting animatedly with the members of the investigation team. So he did not speak out to interrupt their conversation, but found a place to sit down and listened to their conversation attentively.
After more than half an hour, they stopped chatting and noticed the captain sitting in the corner. Captain Wang from the village asked the captain, "When did you come? Why didn't I hear anything?"
"You were having a great time chatting just now, and I didn't want to disturb you, so I found a place to sit down and listen to your conversation."
"Captain Liu, Captain Wang and Captain Zhang just told us that you are capable and they plan to put you in charge of this matter." Chen Cheng, the head of the investigation team, said to the captain with a smile.
"I'm not as good as they say. Their abilities are not inferior to mine. It's completely acceptable for them to be responsible for this matter."
"Hahaha... We've visited several villages, and your village is the most humble and united we've ever seen. The captains of other villages almost fought over who was in charge."
After hearing what Chen Cheng said, the captain just smiled. He did not respond to Chen Cheng's words because what Chen Cheng said was not something he could respond to.
Seeing that the captain didn't say anything, Captain Wang and Captain Zhang naturally didn't say anything either, because the captain was the smartest and most calculating among the three captains. Since he didn't dare to respond to Chen Cheng's words, they were even more afraid to respond to Chen Cheng's words.
Seeing that the three captains of Tianshui Village were silent, Chen Cheng could naturally guess why they were silent. However, he was not angry at all. Instead, he was a little happy, because there was nothing more pleasant than working with smart people.
"Let's go, take us to see the fields in your village." Chen Cheng looked at the captain and said.
"Okay, I'll take you there now." After the captain finished speaking, he led the way out of the office.
More than ten minutes later, the team leader stopped in front of the field, and then he pointed at the field in front of him and said to Chen Cheng: "Team Leader Chen, the crops in this field are the best among all the fields in our village, but compared with the crops in last year's field, the crops in this field are worse than the worst field among all the fields last year. I think you should be able to understand the situation of crops in our village from what I said."
Chen Cheng nodded when he heard the captain's words, but he said nothing. Instead, he walked towards other fields.
After he had finished touring the fields in Tianshui Village, he looked at the captain and said, "The food situation in your village is the best I've seen so far. At least the fields in your village are not dry to the point of cracking, and the food has not turned yellow due to lack of water. It seems that the people in your village are really hardworking and united."
"Team Leader Chen, it's not that I'm not modest, but the people in our village are indeed very hardworking. Whenever they have time, they will go to the river to fetch water for irrigation."
"I will tell my superiors about the situation in your village, but there is one thing you need to be honest with me."
"What's the matter?" the captain asked puzzledly after hearing Chen Cheng's words.
"Besides carrying water for irrigation, what other methods do you use to irrigate the land in your village?"
"So that's what you want to ask about. Actually, we didn't use any special methods. We just dug a river channel and diverted the river water to the fields.
Another method is to use hoses to bring water from the mountains.”
