Deputy County Chief Chang does not mind trading in goods.
I don't think that these drivers committing a heinous crime by bringing back some goods from other places are guilty of anything, let alone undermining socialism.
When goods flow, someone will always benefit.
The county committee has received several letters reporting drivers for bringing goods. Everyone knows that being a driver is a lucrative job, and there are always people who are jealous.
County Magistrate Pei also knew about this situation. He had said at the last meeting that a thorough investigation should be conducted. Since there were reports from the public, they had to take action.
Deputy County Chief Chang sighed. Ever since he came to Nanping County to take office, the management of the black market has basically been loose at times and tight at others.
While leaving a way for the people below to survive, it also does not whet their appetites.
Although he was the deputy county chief, there was still a county chief above him, and several other deputy county chiefs were also eyeing his position.
There really can't be any mistakes, everything has to be done according to the rules.
After reading the remaining letters, Deputy County Mayor Chang went to the county mayor's office. After discussing for a while, the two decided to conduct a thorough check of all drivers in the county.
"It's time to curb this trend, otherwise those drivers will become more and more rampant." County Magistrate Pei added: "Last time I went to a provincial meeting, someone also mentioned the issue of drivers reselling goods. The higher-ups took it very seriously and ordered all localities to conduct a thorough investigation."
Deputy County Chief Chang nodded. He knew that even if no one reported it, he would not be able to escape the crackdown.
He asked: "County Governor, when will we take action?"
County Magistrate Pei thought for a moment and said, "Starting from the first of next month, have the Armed Forces and the Public Security Bureau jointly set up checkpoints at all intersections, with a focus on checking trucks and buses. The items on the vehicles must have a formal origin, otherwise they will be treated as reselling goods. This operation will last for one month, and random checks will be conducted from time to time in the future."
Today is already the 25th, and there are still five days until the 1st of next month.
"Okay, I'll arrange it later." Deputy County Mayor Chang came out of County Mayor Pei's office, and all the people in the county committee had gone off work.
He also went straight back to the family building at the back.
Old Mrs. Chang had already prepared dinner, and Li Xiao'e had returned from get off work and was waiting for him.
While eating, Chang Guangming said, "Grandma, I want to go to Aunt Su's house to play. Can you take me there tomorrow?"
Chang Chunmei also said, "Grandma, I want to go too. How about we go on Sunday? I don't have school, so we can go together then."
Although she had never seen Aunt Su that her brother mentioned, she knew that she was her brother's savior.
She also heard from her younger brother that Aunt Su's house was very fun and had a swing, so she had been longing for it for a long time.
Old Mrs. Chang picked up a piece of meat for each of her grandchildren and said, "Chunmei, Guangming, it's impossible to ride a bicycle in such a thick snow. I'll take you out when the weather gets better. In the meantime, just play in the courtyard."
Chang Chunmei immediately suggested, "Grandma, we can walk or ride a sled. I have several classmates who are from rural areas. They ride sleds to and from school every day. Sometimes they even ride sleds. It's fun."
Chang Chunmei is eight years old this year. The girl is lively and active and has a boyish personality.
She often hung out with the kids in the county party committee compound, and she knew exactly where the fun things were.
"Chunmei, your classmates are all near the county town, so it's convenient for them to walk here. But your Aunt Su lives in Sanhua Brigade, which is a bit far from the county town, so it will take a long time to walk there."
Li Xiao'e smiled and coaxed her daughter and son, "When the weather gets warmer, let grandma take you to Aunt Su's house to play."
Although the two children are lively and active, they are very sensible. When they heard their mother say this, they nodded obediently.
Old Mrs. Chang and Li Xiao'e, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, talked about Su Xieqiu again.
Mrs. Chang praised, "Comrade Su is a really good girl, and her husband is also very good, tall, handsome, calm and unpretentious, and good at talking. The couple is a perfect match."
Li Xiao'e had never met Han Zhenyu, but when she thought of how Su Xieqiu fought with someone the last time they went there, she couldn't help laughing.
She said to Mrs. Chang: "Xiao Su is a good girl. You can tell she is a good person by her attitude towards the two children. But she is also very powerful. Not only is she good at fighting, but her little mouth is like a knife when she scolds people."
Mrs. Chang smiled and nodded, then sighed, "Comrade Su is an educated youth who came here to work in the countryside, and his wife is often on business trips. She is the only one raising two children, and her stepmother's family often bullies her. If she doesn't act tough, she will have a hard time."
"Mom is right. A family like that needs to be a little bit more powerful."
Li Xiao'e saw that her son was full, wiped his mouth, and chatted with Grandma Chang again.
"But Comrade Su is living well now. She has a big tiled house. Her husband is a regular worker in the machinery factory. He earns at least 30 or 40 yuan a month, which is enough to cover the family expenses. Comrade Su is also capable, so she will definitely live better and better in the future."
Deputy County Chief Chang, who had been silent the whole time, interrupted at this moment, "So Comrade Su's lover works at the machinery factory?"
"Yes, her husband is a driver at a machinery factory and is often on business trips, so Xiao Su is the only one who depends on the family. I met him last time I went there. The young man was very impressive and was also very nice to Xiao Su. He even cooked the meal that day by himself."
The more Mrs. Chang praised them, the more she felt that they were excellent, so she talked more than usual.
Deputy County Chief Chang ate his meal in silence, listening to his mother and his wife praising the couple one after another with full of appreciation in their tone.
He was in a dilemma. On the one hand, he was his son's savior, and on the other hand, it was his duty.
Deputy County Chief Chang hesitated for a moment and said to his daughter, "Chunmei, take your brother back to his room. I have something to discuss with your grandmother."
"I got it, Dad." Chang Chunmei put down her bowl and chopsticks and took her brother back to the room.
