Chapter 23 twenty one

The summary work of the inspection team had just started, and a group of sanitation workers crowded into the small conference room. "Group leader Yu, I heard that there were many complaints yesterday, and they scolded Mayor Xia for a long time here, didn't they?" "Who are those people who complained? Our workers know very well that they are all streamlined by Mayor Xia during the organizational reform. We support Mayor Xia!" ... "Since everyone is here, I want to talk about it, and I want to hear it too, but with so many people, can you hear clearly?" Yu Yangtai said loudly, "Do you want to leave a few representatives so that we can talk about it in detail?" Do you want to listen to everyone's opinions?"

The workers immediately agreed, and six of them remained, and the rest soon left. Yu Yangtai asked straight to the point, "You all said that Mayor Xia is good, what's a good way, tell me?" The first person to answer was a fifty-seven-eight-year-old female sanitation worker. "When Mayor Xia first came to Dianjiang, he went to the grassroots for the first time. It was us sanitation workers who visited us. We all cried at that time." "Why are you crying?" Yu Yangtai felt a little strange. "Why? He said that he had already listened to the report from our director, but he still didn't expect to say that our clothes are so torn, our face is so bad, our workload is so heavy, and we only earn sixty yuan a month. Speaking of which, he said You bowed to us and said sorry to us..." The eye circles of the female sanitation worker suddenly turned red.

Another member of the inspection team asked, "How much salary do you earn every month now?" "I can earn almost three hundred a month." "That's not too much!" Yu Yangtai couldn't help saying. "It's quite a lot. How many times have Mayor Xia and the Finance Director patted the table for our salary. Mayor Xia pointed at them and said, one meal is their salary for several months. Do you have the heart!" Female sanitation guard Tears welled up in the workers' eyes. Yu Yangtai's face turned red all of a sudden.That night, when Wang Siji invited them to a table of meals, he quietly asked the waitress, the total was more than 26,000 yuan, which was almost the total monthly wages of 100 sanitation workers!

The female sanitation worker wiped the corners of her eyes with her finger, and finally she continued, "We were on night shift that winter, and we started sweeping the streets at two o'clock in the morning. We ate cold rice balls for dinner at night. Ten people crowded into a dilapidated house with ventilation on all sides, and the fire was sooty coal, which made people suffocate due to the mist. Unexpectedly, Mayor Xia came at this time. He looked at the stove as soon as he came, and then He asked me for a piece of rice balls, and wept while eating. The next day, he changed the stove for us, connected the chimney, and installed glass in the house. Later, he built a bathhouse for us, A night shift canteen was built, and police mobile posts were added at night. On New Year’s Eve, he found a chef, made dumplings and fried vegetables for us, and ate New Year’s dinner with us. That night, hundreds of us street sweepers all Surrounded by Mayor Xia, I don’t want to leave. In the past, no one would think highly of us sanitation workers. We were often beaten and scolded at night, and discriminated against during the day. He came and made us stand upright and live like human beings..."

Having said this, the sanitation worker couldn't help but choked up. Yu Yangtai hurriedly said, "Speak slowly, slowly." The female sanitation worker went on to say, "That year, on Sanitation Workers' Day, he put us in the best overalls, took us to sing the song of sanitation workers at the celebration, and even put us on our celebration. In front of the TV camera, we can't say anything, we can only cry, we can only say that the Communist Party is good, that the Communist Party sent us such a good mayor..." Yu Yangtai's eyes suddenly became a little moist.Those who have become directors, bureau chiefs, and superintendents can find millions of dollars at home if something happens, but they still feel inadequate and complain.However, the sanitation workers who only earn two to three hundred yuan a month in the morning and night are so devout, and every mouthful is good for the Communist Party. Can you explain clearly what is hidden behind this?

The second is a retired old worker of the municipal garbage removal team. "If it weren't for Mayor Xia, the son of a sanitation worker with me would not be able to find a wife now." The old worker said hoarsely. "That day, Mayor Xia came to our place and wandered around for a whole morning. He wanted to have dinner with us again at noon. He picked up the steamed bun and took a bite, and then bit a fly inside. Mayor Xia pointed at the steamed bun. I looked at it for a long time, then wrapped it in a handkerchief, and went back after eating." Several people were attracted by the hoarse voice of the old worker.

The old worker continued: "The next day, Mayor Xia came again early in the morning, and many leaders of the city came with him. Mayor Xia took them to look around one by one, and even swept the floor of one of our dormitories. I checked it all over again. I just swept a pile of dead flies in the dormitory. Later, he put the pile of dead flies and the steamed buns with the flies in the yard, and several leaders were in tears when they saw it. He said, Today, the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government came to visit you. Firstly, they admitted their mistakes to you. It's not fair to let you fall into this situation! ... "

When the old worker said this, his eyes were full of tears, "...Mayor Xia called my son out after speaking. He said to everyone, look, who is worse than this young man? Isn't it because he is a clean boy? Cargo workers? You can’t even find a wife at the age of 30! Today I promise everyone that I will take care of his wife! If you can’t find a wife again, it will be a shame to Dianjiang!…” Having said this, the old worker suddenly burst into tears.It took a long time for Yu Yangtai and others to persuade him. The old worker wiped his tears and said, "My grandson is three years old now, if it weren't for Mayor Xia, would my family be where we are today?... But we really don't understand, how can such a good mayor still be so good?" Anyone object?..."
