Chapter 24 Mayor Sanwang

"My mother, you are so good! My person surnamed Wang doesn't look like a human being, and a ghost doesn't look like a ghost! What prestige and face will I have in Furong Town in the future?" Wang Qiushe is used to the people in the town calling him "Mayor Wang", but he doesn't know that the residents call him "Wang Qiushe" in private.People can't keep their mouths shut, and their ears are clean.Even though Secretary Li Guoxiang had hung up the phone and said hello to him in advance, he was still anxious and furious after receiving two materials from the county party committee about implementing policies for Qin Shutian and Hu Yuyin.After closing the door of the office, he slammed the desk alone, knocking a glass down on the concrete floor and smashing it to pieces.

In fact, Wang Qiushe also wrongly blamed Li Guoxiang.The Party Central Committee made repeated orders to rehabilitate the unjust, false and wrong cases accumulated in previous political campaigns, like spring thunder and spring breeze, how could the little Li Guoxiang and others be able to stop it? Li Guoxiang is well aware of Wang Qiushe's human nature.They are still a little bit disconnected from each other, "nostalgic".Over the years, Wang Qiushe could have found a woman to start a family, but in order to have a single-minded affection for Li Guoxiang, he made a sacrifice.Li Guoxiang understood this point alone and was very moved.So after a few days, Li Guoxiang hung up another phone call from the county party committee, with a clear and pleasant voice.What was said on the phone, because it was a "special line", the operator at the switchboard of the telecommunications bureau did not dare to eavesdrop, and the rest of the people did not know.But seeing Wang Qiushe answer the phone, he fell into the rattan chair, with cold sweat protruding from his forehead.This time Wang Qiushe didn't close the office door to knock the table and knock down the glass, but cursed in his heart:

"Damn good! Interesting, I rehabilitated them, took off their hats, and is still an internal expert, with a white mark on his forehead, and a black hoop... That's what I said, but you guys pulled a pile of shit Baba, ask me to lick my ass! You are good, you are about to be transferred to work in the province, and you leave me here in Furong Town, to handle these corrections, rehabilitations, and rehabilitated false and wrong cases... Li Guoxiang, you are really a country , Always delicious! Thirty-six strategies, you walk is the best policy. You go, you go, a geese and a golden rooster, a bull and a female tiger, anyway, they will not be a long-term couple..."

In all fairness, Wang Qiushe and Li Guoxiang have been in close contact with each other over the years, because they need each other, and there are gains and losses.What is there to complain about? And the gains outweigh the losses.What did he lose? What he gained was the mayor of Furong Town, despite his status as a mud footed pole.This is all thanks to Li Guoxiang's good words in front of Secretary Yang Mingao and his strong recommendation.If Comrade Yang Mingao's original temperament had to be followed, Wang Qiushe, a thin bullshit who can't support the wall, and a villain who is easy to reverse and easy to reverse, will never be used again.Li Mangeng is an example. Didn’t he not listen to Lao Yang’s words when he withdrew the district and merged the township in 1956, and could not take off the straw sandals on his feet and the coir raincoat on his back for the rest of his life? What happened to Wang Qiushe? , talent, he can't keep up

Shang Li Mangeng has a finger.However, an incident before the Spring Festival in the year of "criticizing Lin Biao and Confucius" completely changed Secretary Yang Mingao's view of Wang Qiushe. It turns out that Secretary Yang Mingao's family, especially Secretary Yang himself, has a hobby of eating winter bamboo shoots every winter and spring.Sliced, tender, crunchy, fried lean pork slices, braised duck nuggets, chicken nuggets, stewed shiitake mushrooms and fungus sliced ​​soup are all indispensable.It tastes crunchy in the mouth and is beyond words.Winter bamboo shoots are not bird’s nest, white fungus, sea cucumber and bear’s paw, soil guy in the mountains, what kind of rare thing? Originally, as the head of a county, what’s the point of eating one or two hundred catties of winter bamboo shoots every winter and spring? Coincidentally, the bamboo blossomed and produced rice that year, and it was naturally renewed. , Mountain after mountain are all withered.Winter bamboo shoots have become as rare as shark fins.One night, Li Guoxiang offered Wang Qiushe the opportunity to show his loyalty.The next day coincided with Furong Town Fair Day, Wang Qiushe, with the acquiescence of the female director, sent a small militia unit to guard the entrances and exits of the fair, and declared an emergency martial law in order to combat speculation, maintain social order, and block capitalism. .At that time, it was the New Year's Eve, and the members of the mountain community picked some mountain goods and local products, and came to the fair to exchange some money.Unexpectedly, only entry is allowed at the intersection of the fair market, and no exit is allowed.Moreover, everyone who entered the fair had to be inspected by militiamen wearing yellow armbands, and all winter bamboo shoots hidden in baskets and baskets would be confiscated, and the rest would not be questioned.Why the confiscation of winter bamboo shoots is purely a top secret and must not be asked.For a moment, everyone in the Manxu field turned pale and looked at each other in blank dismay.A small piece of gossip was leaked, one spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and people whispered to each other, embellished, and looked furtive and flustered, saying that a reactionary organization called the Bamboo Shoot and Shell Party had recently been detected in the mountains.Counter-revolutionaries hid secret documents in bamboo shoot shells for counter-revolutionary communication.Therefore, a net has been cast on this fair, and I don’t know how many heads, minds, feet, and claws of reactionary organizations will be captured! Those who have lost their winter bamboo shoots, how can they care about the economic loss? I just want to grow a pair of wings. , Fly away from the fair place, which is a place of wrongdoing, and go back to your own home.It's a good day at home, but it's hard to move around.

Who created the high-level top secret of the "Bamboo Shoot Party"? Was it some disloyal elements of the militia that deliberately made things difficult for Mayor Wang? She and Li Guoxiang also looked at each other in dismay, very embarrassed, afraid that the matter would be exposed in a big way.Later, they continued to refute, pursue, and suppress rumors at conferences and small meetings, stating that the martial law in Furong Town this time was purely for the purpose of cracking down on speculation, so that the matter was calmed down. Besides, on the night after the winter bamboo shoots were confiscated in Furong Town, Wang Qiushe personally went out to pack more than 100 catties of precious winter bamboo shoots into two sacks, tied them with a bicycle, and drove them to the county town for five or sixty miles at night. , handed it in the small kitchen of Secretary Yang Mingao.It's really unbeknownst to people.Secretary Yang Mingao woke up the next morning and saw it. He frowned and criticized Wang Qiushe: "Respect the leaders, love the superiors, don't come here."Giving away agricultural and sideline products is unhealthy and vulgar.Against legal power, responsible cadres especially should not engage in specialization.Secretary Yang Mingao also brought the two sacks of winter bamboo shoots to the height of line consciousness, anti-revision and anti-revision, and immediately carried the shoulder pole with Wang Qiushe to the scale, and settled the account according to the purchase price of the supply and marketing department, but did not pay immediately.Wang Qiushe's heart turned cold, and he only blamed Li Guoxiang's inaccurate inside information.Secretary Yang Mingao's criticism, he has been hearing "don't blame the past, don't make an example, and pay attention in the future", only then did he realize that things have turned around.After that, Secretary Yang personally accompanied him to have breakfast.For breakfast, of course, it’s just steamed buns with rich flour, soy milk, preserved eggs, stinky fermented bean curd, and a small dish of sugar, simple and simple.During the meeting, Secretary Yang Mingao also asked Wang Qiushe if there were any difficulties in his work and life with concern.Of course, Wang Qiushe was slandered by the rumors about the "Bamboo Shoot Party", while Comrade Yang Mingao was deceived and didn't know a word. He only knew that the winter bamboo shoots grew in the bamboo mountains, and the commune members in the mountains used hoes to plant each tree. It is dug out from the soil, and it still has some influence on the growth of spring bamboo.

Not long after, Li Guoxiang was recalled to the county by Secretary Yang Mingao, and reported in detail the basic situation of the commune cadres, including of course the secretary of the Furong Town Brigade, Wang Qiushe, who had repented of his mistakes in recent years, strived for improvement, and was loyal to the superiors, etc. .Secretary Yang, of course, based on the principle of "not treating the living as dead" and "not treating the dead as alive", he forgives Wang Qiushe for "parroting his tongue" when he was teaching the "three loyalty" in the early days of the "Cultural Revolution" The focus is on actual performance. After a few days, rumors spread in Furong Town that in order to cultivate and reuse grassroots cadres with a firm stand and clear love and hatred, the county party committee plans to promote Wang Qiushe, the secretary of the town brigade, to the commune revolutionary committee Deputy director of the association. But there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and it is a long-term success. In order to collect winter bamboo shoots, Wang Qiushe imposed emergency martial law in Furong Town without authorization, and he was still reported to the province and region. A county of ten miles must have good talents What's more, Furong Town is a trading market town in eighteen counties in three provinces. Who made the report? There was a mixed crowd of people who went to the fair that day, with no class or social relationship? It is difficult to check them all. The people's complaints to the province must be forwarded to the district, and then the district will be forwarded to the county, and the county will be forwarded to the commune, all of which fall into Li Guoxiang's hands. Most of these criticisms are in the same tone: "Please find out the situation, be dealt with. "" According to the party's relevant policies to verify and deal with. "" Instruct the relevant departments of the party committee to deal with it. ""Transferred to the discretion of the commune." "...The year, month, and day are of course different. They were filled in on the day of the approval. They are bright red and authoritative seals. Although they are all standard round, they also have different sizes. The color of the ink pad also varies.

The affidavit still played a role.The report submitted by the relevant departments of the county party committee to the relevant regional departments regarding the promotion and appointment of Comrade Wang Qiushe as the deputy director of the commune revolutionary committee has not been approved.Even Secretary Yang Mingao could only shake his head and sigh, how deeply entrenched are the stubborn forces suppressing the new forces.Later, with the development of the situation, the county party committee decided to set up Furong Town as a township smaller than the commune, and appointed Wang Qiushe as a new type of cadre who received work points and subsidies-the director of the Town Revolutionary Committee.There is no need for superior approval for matters within the scope of the county party committee.At that time, the students favored "communities come and go", and the new cadres

Xing "get work points without wages" is a new thing established in the late period of the "Cultural Revolution" to challenge the legal rights of the bourgeoisie.Wang Qiushe is a new type of cadre, and he mostly trains at the grassroots level.The future is boundless... "My mother, you have been fighting for more than 20 years, but it was wrong? Not only was Qin's sentence wrong, but he even wore the wrong hat of the rightist in 1957! Not only must he be released from the prison, but he must also recover Work! The salary will not be low, much higher than the income of the head of my town... Moreover, it seems that Secretary Yang Mingao has kept a hand on me. He has been the mayor of the town for several years, and he has not even transferred a national cadre. I still eat rural food, get work points, and a monthly subsidy of only 36 yuan..."

Wang Qiushe was in the office of the Township Revolutionary Committee, facing the two "removal and correction" materials from the county party committee, unable to take them up or put them down.Do it? Or don’t do it? Wait, wait and see? But the whole country is rehabilitating false and wrong cases. It is reported every day in newspapers and shouted on the radio every day. You, Wang Qiushe, are just a "work-point mayor" with big eyes How many skulls did you grow? "My mother, let me tell you this, Qin Shutian was corrected by the rightist, Hu Yuyin changed his status, the director of the supply and marketing cooperative was reinstated, the director of the tax office was rehabilitated... and Gu Yanshan, the 'Northern soldier'! Bring out such a long list. More than ten or twenty Who in the town has done nothing wrong in the past few years? Gu Yanshan, the 'Northern soldier', seems to have done nothing wrong. But if he hadn't been fighting so much for more than ten years, he would have been able to fight for this position today? Isn't he a chicken and a dog? Diaojiaozhuzhu'? To divide one into two, to divide one into two."

This is not what worries Wang Qiushe the most.He also has an urgent economic priority: to return the wrongly zoned rich peasant Hu Yuyin's building, the Town Revolutionary Committee has long since converted the "Class Struggle Exhibition Room" into a small guest house.The small hostel has an income of one or two hundred yuan a month, and there is no need to pay taxes. The superiors come to the town to inspect and guide the work, to cooperate with brother units, to have big banquets, to spend on tobacco and alcohol, and to rely on this income. "Explain the truth to Hu Yuyin, and ask her to take care of the overall situation. The property rights of the building will be returned to her, and it will still be used as a small guest house for the time being. I will pay her a little rent in the future, five or eight yuan. I guess it will not be a big problem..." Wang Qiushe still had another financial problem that was on his mind, which was to repay Hu Yuyin's 1,500 yuan confiscated during the social education movement.For more than ten years, the whereabouts of this money has been unknown.In the past few years, I didn’t have a job subsidy, but in the next few years, it was only 36 yuan a month, eating and drinking, spending money, and giving gifts of various names... How can I get enough? You are Wang Qiushe and bought a ticket printing machine what! "Mother, be good! Where did this money come from? Where did it come from? I owe it first? By the way, I owe it first, and I will delay it. I have been engaged in political campaigns for more than ten years, and the economy is a bit vague... 1,500 yuan Who handed it over in the first place? Who typed the receipt? Haha, it’s an unpaid account, a confused account... Hu Yuyin, the party and the government have rehabilitated you, rehabilitated you, restored your status as a small proprietor, returned the property rights of the building, You are also allowed to live with Qin Shutian legally, what are you not satisfied with?" Having said that, Wang Qiushe's life is getting more and more difficult.In recent days, all kinds of gossip and road news in Xinjie and Laojie are also very unfavorable to him. There are rumors that the superiors will soon appoint "Northern Soldier" Gu Yanshan as the secretary of the town committee and the director of the town revolution committee.The superior did not issue any official documents, but the residents were already smiling.Wang Qiushe is neither crazy nor stupid, he can feel this backlash of people's hearts.It's like a light on your back, like a sword hanging from your neck.Now he doesn't dare to easily pursue, refute and suppress rumors in conferences and meetings.I made several phone calls to the county party committee to ask, but the people in the county party committee office were also vague and did not give a clear answer.He was in a trance and restless, to the point where he could hardly eat or sleep.He often sits in the office in a daze, his face is a little swollen, his eyes are straight, and he is chanting words, and no one knows what he is chanting.His mind was a little blurred and confused... One day, he finally yelled out: "I don't, I don't! I'm on stage for a day, you don't want to correct, don't want to rehabilitate!"
