Chapter 201 Sisters of Suffering (2)

Li Rui wanted to ask for further information about the situation. At this time, Yang Hongwang and village party secretary Cui Guangming came.

Seeing Cui Guangming's hurrying look, Li Rui took a breath, calmed down and asked, "What's going on with this family?"

Cui Guangming pointed to the girl by the door and replied: "Her name is Ji Chunhua. Her father Ji Dakui is a drunkard. He beats his wife every time he gets drunk. Three years ago, his wife couldn't help but run away. Jia Lianxing even drank every day. He went home one night and fell down the mountain and fell to death. Only this pair of orphans were left, and his sister was still a fool."

Li Rui suppressed the anger in his heart and asked coldly: "Don't anyone care about them?"

Seeing that Li Rui's tone was a little serious, Cui Guangming smiled flatteringly and explained: "The village is poor, so why should I care? The villagers see that the two sisters are pitiful and often give them some food, and that's it."

Li Rui found that Cui Guangming was talking, and his eyes glanced at Ji Chunhua's chest outside with a few confused eyes. The anger in his heart suddenly rose. He wanted to get angry. A mountain wind passed by, and the little girl shivered. Li Rui's heart suddenly felt a sense of sorrow. He remembered that it was winter that the year his mother passed away, and he was alone by his mother, trembling, and his eyes were filled with horror and confusion. He didn't bother to scold Cui Guangming, and quickly took off his jacket and put it on Ji Chunhua's body, and pulled her into the room, "Little sister, are you cold?"

Seeing this, Cui Guangming hurriedly stepped forward to take off Li Rui's jacket, and said in a coquettish manner: "Secretary Li, this is not allowed to be used, and you can't even get your clothes dirty."

Li Rui knocked off his hand that came over and said angrily: "Get up and get out of here!"

Cui Guangming was frightened by Li Rui's sudden anger, touched the place where he was beaten, and said at a loss: "Secretary Li...you, what do you mean..."

Ji Chunhua suddenly took off her jacket, ran to the haystack, and said to her trembling sister, "Taohua, come on, sister, dress you up."

In this situation, Li Rui's eyes suddenly blurred. He turned his head and shouted: "Tian Min, go, take two coats over, and then take all the food."

"Hey!" Tian Min responded, wiped his tears, turned around and ran outside.

Soon, Tian Min was holding two military coats, and Ding Junfeng followed behind, carrying the bread and mineral water that he was preparing to fill his hunger on the road when he was carrying it.

Li Rui took the coat, put on each piece of it for them, and handed over the food, "If you are hungry, eat."

Ji Chunhua looked at Cui Guangming with a restless expression, swallowed her saliva, snatched the horse-clip bag, picked up a loaf of bread, stuffed it into her mouth, and at the same time she did not forget to pull off half of it and handed it to her sister who was only seven or eight years old. Seeing the two sisters eating voraciously, Li Rui could no longer bear it, turned around and left without looking back.

The others hurriedly followed, but no one spoke, and silently returned to the village committee office. The warm charcoal fire did not warm up Li Rui's chill. He couldn't even raise the interest and scolded Cui Guangming and other village cadres. Listening to their reports was like not listening. It was the same as the village in front, and even the existing problems were the same. The method was one word: None!

Tomorrow, the branch secretary directors of the other five villages will be convened here for a meeting. Li Rui, Yang Hongwang, Tian Min, and Ding Junfeng will live in Yide Village. Before going to bed at night, Yang Hongwang said to Li Rui: "This Cui Guangming is really a fucking game, and he is not a fool with many young wives in the village, which makes the villagers very resentful." Today, he saw the tragic situation of the sisters Ji Chunhua and Ji Taohua, and felt a lot of feelings. He was contrary to the attitude of helping those village cadres speak nice things two days ago, and he looked indignant.

"Is the situation true?" Li Rui asked calmly. In fact, when he had already made up his mind on the way back, since he wanted to kill the chicken to warn the monkey, then this chicken was Cui Guangming.

Yang Hongwang nodded affirmatively and said, "We can find out about this owner."

The owner of the house they stayed at was an old man in his sixties. His son was a carpenter. He was always in Pengcheng City to decorate houses for others. He also had a group of people under his command. He was a small contractor. The family had a good financial situation and he felt a sense of justice. After hearing their purpose, he said angrily: "Cui Guangming is not like a party member and cadre! He is simply a gangster bandit. Many young people in the village went out to work. His wife stayed in the house. He knocked on the door in the middle of the night. He threatened him when he was timid, and he coaxed him, which harmed many good women."

"Don't you villagers report him?" Li Rui asked.

"Who to sue? Ignore the government if I sue you." The old man said angrily.

Li Rui asked Yang Hongwang, "Is this happening?"

Yang Hongwang looked embarrassed and said nothing. It was not until he returned to the house that he said to Li Rui: "There were people who came to the town to react two years ago and last year. When Secretary Chen heard this, he said, 'Go to Mayor Cui to solve the matter in his crotch.'. He found Mayor Cui, and Mayor Cui said, 'Who still cares about these matters now? The Discipline Inspection Commission cannot control men's sex, but they are voluntarily, so why didn't I come?" So no one cared about this matter. Cui Guangming became more and more bold and dared to come to harass him during the day."

"How can such a cadre stay and use it again?" Li Rui even blamed Chen Shiwei as he spoke.

Yang Hongwang sighed and said, "No one in the mountain wants to be a cadre. People with abilities go out to work. It is estimated that Secretary Chen and Mayor Cui gave in because of this reason."

Li Rui felt the seriousness of the problem and said seriously: "This is not possible. If this goes on, the people on the mountain may cause trouble one day. Examples of Xiaoquan Village and Jiangbian Village are in front of you. The people are the best at following the examples. We must be vigilant."

Yang Hongwang nodded in agreement.

Li Rui continued to ask: "Is there really no one on the mountain willing to be a cadre?"

Yang Hongwang frowned and said, "It's not that he is unwilling to do it, but the main reason is that the treatment is too low. The village's economic strength is too weak and it is too difficult to cause trouble. All kinds of work in the town are pressing on the village. There are more things and less rewards. This is a contradiction."

"Well, we must think of a solution to the symptoms and the root cause." Li Rui pondered, thought for a while, and slapped the table and said, "But, a cadre like Cui Guangming must be taken down resolutely! Tomorrow, he will be removed from his position as secretary of the Yide Village Branch, and the village director will be temporarily acting as secretary. By the way, is the village director Xu Jun a party member?"

"Xu Jun is a party member." Yang Hongwang nodded and hesitated: "But... Secretary Li, is he having fun with Mayor Cui?"

Ventilation? Hearing this sentence, Li Rui felt uncomfortable and paralyzed. I am the secretary! The top leader! Who else should I vent with if I remove a village party secretary? Does that boy Cui Yongjiu dare to make a noise? The coal management bureau was still difficult to deal with, but I still obeyed them all. With a wave of his hand, he said domineeringly: "This matter is settled."

Because of Li Rui and Chen Shiwei's relationship, Yang Hongwang had known Li Rui for a long time and knew his situation quite well. He knew that this master not only had a backstage but also was very arrogant, so he nodded quickly and said yes.

Then, Li Rui said: "The salary of village cadres is indeed low. They have to run away from the horses and don't eat grass. How can this be done? I have considered it and prepared to increase their salary. One hundred and two is too low, and the mountain is so hard. The monthly salary of the secretary and the director is at least 400, and the deputy position, accounting, women's director, etc. is 300 to 350, and encourage multiple positions and more salary. In addition, the village is well done, and there will be bonuses at the end of the year."

Hearing these words, Yang Hongwang looked at Li Rui in horror, and even couldn't believe his ears, and stuttered: "Secretary Li, is this possible... this possible? Where does this money come from?"

Li Rui smiled and said, "This is just my current idea, and it still needs to be discussed and demonstrated. The policy is only applicable to cadres in the six villages on the mountain. The mountain still implements the current policy, so there will be no more money in a year."

Yang Hongwang had nodded, but thought to himself: This method is good, but the question is whether it can be passed?

The next day, the branch secretary and director of the other five villages gathered in Yide Village for a meeting. Li Rui called them all to Ji Chunhua's doorstep, "Everyone will go and see, these are two orphans without parents, what kind of life are they living."

This different meeting form aroused everyone's interest, and they went into the dilapidated room to watch it, and after a while they shook their heads and came out.

Cui Guangming looked uneasy, Xu Jun looked ashamed, and Li Rui saw it all.

The two sisters Ji Chunhua didn't know who made the temporary remedy yesterday. They had already put on two clothes that looked pretty decent, and they could meet people at this time. But seeing so many people coming to their doorstep together, the two sisters were very panicked, and their four eyes were like frightened mice, dodging.
