Chapter 55 Chapter Twenty Six

The mother's home, which is the village where Li Binliang grew up in his youth, is more than a hundred miles away from the urban area. Moreover, the bus only goes to the village, and after getting off the bus, he has to walk more than eight miles to get home. Li Binliang didn't get on the car until noon.Along the way, he cared deeply about his mother, and his heart was like a heavy lead.My mother suffered a lot in her life.Her father passed away early, and the burden of the family fell on her mother. She worked hard to raise her three sons, especially for herself.When she was still in elementary school, she said to herself: "Your two older brothers didn't catch up with the good times, the 'Cultural Revolution', no one can do anything if they don't want to go to school, and this is how it is in this life. You caught up with the good times , but you must study hard, and you will be promising in the future... Our family is poor, but you must have ambition, if you are admitted to university, even if your mother has her head on her head, she will pay for you to study!"

That was the mother's vow, and she fulfilled it to the letter.Although there are two older brothers, they are both married and have families, and their lives are not rich. Basically, their mother provides for their education.She was already in her fifties at that time, but she went to the field like a male laborer to serve the responsibility field, and at night she had to sew and wash clothes for herself.The mother is ambitious, and although she is poor, she still tries to make her son look like a human being when he goes to school. Even the old clothes are always washed clean and mended with edges and corners.In order to support her son's education, she even planted a few acres of yellow smoke, so that the same land can pay two dollars more... All of this is something Li Binliang will never forget.He lived up to his mother's expectations, studied hard, and was admitted to university as he wished.It is precisely for this reason that he is very serious and responsible in his work, especially when he becomes a criminal policeman, he cares about the victims and hates the criminals who harm the people.

But now that my mother is sick, my mother sent me a message to let me go back, and my mother misses her son. Along the way, Li Binliang thought about his mother and always wanted to cry.Only then did he feel that the bus was too slow. This is a gravel road, because the road condition is too bad, the bus can only drive at a low speed.In the car, the passengers all scolded this road. It was an old road, and it was easy to walk in the past, but it was narrower. With the increase of vehicles and the increase of traffic volume, it gradually became insufficient.Ten years ago, the province invested in widening. Due to the poor construction of the roadbed, problems occurred shortly after the repair. Pieces of collapsed parts appeared on the side of the road, and a layer of fine sand on the road surface was quickly worn away, revealing sharp crumbs. Stone, the car bumps and wears tires when walking on it, and the wheels often explode with a bang while walking.Passengers scolded the contractor for being unscrupulous, the poor quality of the project, and the officials for being irresponsible and taking kickbacks.Cursing and talking, it came to the present, saying that the province is going to invest in the construction of the Yunshui Highway, with an investment of 700 million yuan. Some sections of the road overlap with this road. At that time, this road will be easy to go, but someone said, No matter how much investment, if there is no good management, it will not work, and the money will go to personal pockets...

As if to verify these words, after driving for dozens of miles, I saw some people busy in the wild fields on both sides of the road. Measure something.The passengers cheered up and said that the experts were measuring to determine the route of the Yunshui Highway.The car drove for a while, and suddenly a long line of cars appeared in front of it. In the wild field beside the road, some leaders who looked like leaders were gesticulating and talking excitedly.Because the road is narrow and cars are parked on the side of the road, the bus travels more slowly.At this time, some people recognized some of the leaders and shouted excitedly: "Look, that's Mayor Wei...Deputy Mayor Feng...I recognize them..."

Li Binliang also saw that there was indeed Mayor Wei, who was waving his arms majestically and speaking to the people around him.Seeing the city leaders, the passengers in the car became excited, and the civil "organization minister" began to issue appointment and dismissal orders: "Have you heard? Mayor Wei will soon be the secretary of the municipal party committee. He is now in charge of the work of the city. The prefectural party committee has already made a decision." , the former top leader, Secretary Xu, came back from studying at the Central Party School and became the deputy commissioner of the district, Mayor Wei succeeded him as secretary, and Liu Xinfeng succeeded Mayor Wei as mayor!"

Some people have different opinions on the "appointment" of the "minister of organization", probably the "deputy minister".He retorted: "Hey, what you are talking about is the old Huangli. Now the situation has changed. I heard that Liu Xinfeng will be the leader of our city in the future. He is a genuine college student or a graduate student. He has a diploma and a level. Although Mayor Wei The qualifications are older than others, but not good in this aspect. I heard that Secretary Liu is studying at the Party School of the Provincial Party Committee, and he will take office when he comes back!"

The "Organization Minister" of course disagreed: "Impossible, what should Mayor Wei do with such an arrangement? In terms of qualifications, he is older than Liu Xinfeng, and in terms of rank, he is higher than Liu Xinfeng. There must be someone who comes first, first come first, so let the people below jump up Pressing him? Can he do it?" "Hey, the organization has decided, you have to do it if you don't do it!" The "deputy minister" said loudly: "I heard that the prefectural committee wants to transfer him to be the secretary of another county, but he still doesn't agree, so he insists on staying with us. Not in the city. Just wait and see, the term will change soon, and then we will verify who is right. Let me tell you, I heard this from my cousin, who is the secretary of the prefectural committee..."

Li Binliang was usually busy solving cases and didn't care much about the leadership, but now these words moved him: Could it really be like this?From the bottom of my heart, my impression of Liu Xinfeng is really stronger than that of Mayor Wei. If it is really like what I said, my job will be easier in the future... Just thinking about it, I suddenly felt that the car was silent, and then there was a disgusting smell coming in from the car window, and I heard a helpless sigh from a person: "Hey, what a crime... What a river, it's just like this. It's over!" Another person said: "Not only the river is over, but the mountains are also over. How will we live in the future!"

Li Binliang looked out of the car and found a river beside the road.He knew the river. It used to be a beautiful river, leading to the country where his family lived. When he was a child, the water was clear, with green trees, grass and flowers on both sides, and nearby mountains full of tall trees.At that time, I used to bathe and catch fish in it, but now... Now, it smells of death, the river is filled with black-red water, and the foam of death is still curled up, and the trees and green grass on both sides of the river have all withered and disappeared.Most of the mountains not far away were barren, and most of the trees had been cut down. The exposed mountain seemed to be a skinned corpse, which made people feel very uncomfortable, and a foul smell greedily came in through the car window.

This…… I only heard a young man curse bitterly: "Damn it, paper mill, what paper mill? I think it's an illegal factory!" An older person persuaded: "Young man, don't say a few words, it will be a disease if it spreads to other people's ears!" Young man: "If you are sick, you will be sick. I'm not afraid of them. Damn, I really don't understand. What's going on these days? Whoever harms this society will get rich. Just like him, he not only made a fortune, but also became a famous person." He is a representative of the city's people's congress. Who chose him? Can he represent our common people? It has brought disaster to us all..."

After listening to a few words, Li Binliang understood that Tie Kun was the culprit behind all this.Since last year, he has set up a paper mill nearby. He cut down trees on the mountain to make raw materials, and the sewage is discharged into this river... This man is really everywhere, and he can do whatever is bad, but someone tells him to do it. Support him to do it.It is said that the country has regulations that prohibit random construction of paper mills, especially those with an annual output of less than 200 tons, which are resolutely rejected, but how did his factory be built?I don't know how much profit he made, but how much money can make up for such a loss?I also heard that the city gave him a three-year preferential policy, allowing him to pay less or no taxes. Isn't this just making him rich personally at the expense of the people's children and grandchildren? ! The passenger next to him was saying, "Damn it, the city doesn't know what to think. How could this kind of factory be approved? Someone must have benefited from it!" Another passenger said: "That's true. Now, which company does not have the shares of the leader? If you don't believe me, apply for a paper mill and see if you can be approved? Of course not... I heard that the people in Yanhe Village, who suffered the most, came to The city has sued, but no one cares about it at all, and some leaders even said that they are sabotaging economic development, and they should be the first to sue!" A third voice said, "Hey, they are overthinking their own abilities... Let alone them, the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau has come this spring, so what? Didn't they get kicked twice and withdraw..." Li Binliang also knew about this.In the spring, the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau received a report and sent two people to the city to investigate the sewage discharge of the Tiekun Paper Mill. As a result, they were beaten up by a group of people, and one of them was even beaten twice.At that time, I hadn't been to the criminal police brigade yet, and I heard that the investigation went on and on, but they didn't find out who the murderer was, and it became a backlog in the end.Many people said that Tie Kun instigated Yu, including many people in the police, but there was no evidence and no measures could be taken.Damn, he's too crazy. When he gets his hands on him, he has to investigate this case carefully. There was a sigh, and there was no more movement in the car.After a while, people changed the topic to other topics. One person said: "I heard that his fixed assets are already tens of millions. I don't know if it is true or not!" Another person said: "You didn't say much. I have a relative in the City Federation of Industry and Commerce. He counted and said that it has exceeded 100 million yuan... Hey, what do you think he wants so much money for? But why? flowers?" "From what you say, you are an old village. How much money is too much? Isn't it easy to spend money? First of all, eat a good meal and go to a restaurant. Playing with the lady every day. Didn’t he open a “corruption street”? There are hundreds of ladies under him, one every night, working in shifts...” Laughter erupted in the car.Some people continued to say: "You have to have a good physique. If you are so fit, you will probably get tuberculosis after one round. If you don't do it well, you will lose your life..." "Yeah, it's better for us, we don't have money, we can't find a wife, we finally found one, and he's ugly, with a good physique..." ... On this topic, people made some dirty jokes.It seems that they are very good at having fun while suffering, and they are very forgetful, so they quickly forgot the resentment just now.This reminded Li Binliang of the characters in Lu Xun's "The True Story of Ah Q". It seems that whether it is Ah Q or Xiao D, their spiritual victory method is a helpless choice. At this time, Li Binliang suddenly found that he had a new understanding of this famous book that he had studied many times. Thinking of this, Li Binliang forgot about his mother's illness for a while, and it was not until he was about to arrive at the destination that he came back to his senses and saw the place he was very familiar with before.There, in that simple campus, he spent six full years.Li Binliang's heart was excited.
