After listening to Hou Weidong's report, Zhu Yan immediately called the Procurator General Li Du: "The incident has happened, I can only face the difficulties. I have no turning back. I have to push it. Prosecutor Li, you must take the initiative to go to the Shazhou Procuratorate to report the case in detail to Prosecutor Liu, and strive to obtain the understanding and support of the superior procuratorate."

After putting down the phone, he ordered: "Let Lao Liu come over, let's go to Shazhou to report this to Director Zhiyuan of the Municipal People's Congress, and buy some new tea from Yi Yang, and you need the best one."

Although I encountered trouble again, because Ma Youcai was caught off guard at the Standing Committee, Zhu Yan was in a good mood and said casually, "Give gifts are also a science. Every time I visit Director Zhiyuan, I give Yi Yang Xincha. I always feel that it is not suitable to give other gifts. Do you have any new tricks?"

Hou Weidong happened to know Gao Zhiyuan’s special preferences and said, “Director Gao likes the pheasant dried in Qinglin very much. Every time he goes home, he always takes a few away.”

Zhu Yan was a little surprised and asked with a smile: "You know Director Zhiyuan."

"When Director Gao came back once when he was repaired on Qinglin Highway, I saw him in the crowd."

Zhu Yan didn't ask too much, saying, "Since Secretary Zhiyuan likes local specialties, it's not time to go, you can arrange for people from Qinglin Town to purchase it immediately." Hou Weidong explained, "The dried pheasants are just folk flavors, and they are not sold in the town. They are all scattered at the homes of farmers and need to be purchased from household to household."

Zhu Yan said, "I made an appointment with Director Zhiyuan to meet at 4 pm. If I had to go to households, it would be too late." Hou Weidong took the initiative: "I have worked in Shangqinglin. I am very familiar with the village cadres and can ask them to help me acquire it. I drive over and get it. It only takes more than an hour to go back and forth."

The last time he accompanied Zhang Mushan to Shangqinglin Tiejian Mountain, Hou Weidong's good relationship with the villagers gave Zhu Yan a deep impression. This also happened to confirm what Tie Ruiqing said, and he praised: "The people's eyes are bright and bright. As long as they do practical things for them, they will support you."

This is the first time Zhu Yan praised Hou Weidong. Although the way of praise is very indirect, the evaluation is very heavy. Hou Weidong hurriedly said modestly: "Going to Qinglin Highway is the common wish of 7,000 villagers. They work for free and bring their own food, so that they can pull out the road rough in the face of extreme financial difficulties." He originally wanted to say that the road was ironed by the county finance. But thinking that this was Ma Youcai's decision, he put the last paragraph in his stomach.

"You go and go back quickly, we will arrive in Shazhou on time at 2:30."

Zhu Yan said again: "You and I have not returned home since you became secretary. Today is Friday. After meeting Director Zhiyuan, you will give you two days off and spend time at home with your lover." He asked again: "Your lover is Zhang Xiaojia, what job does in the Garden Bureau?"

"Xiaojia is in charge of equipment and facilities in the Garden Bureau. Recently, she is preparing to go to Shanghai for two years to study. After she left, I have more time."

At this time, Hou Weidong left with a knock on the door.

After calling Zeng Xiangang and making arrangements, Hou Weidong went to Liang Bifa's yard to pick up the pickup truck and headed straight to Qinglin. Since he was a secretary for Zhu Yan, Zhu Yan was a workaholic, Hou Weidong basically had no private time. He had not been to the Goubei Bay Stoneyard for a long time.

After three years of transportation, Yiyang Transportation has been greatly improved and achieved remarkable results. It is already the only one among the four counties. Hou Weidong went from the county town to the Goubei Bend Stoneyard in less than 40 minutes, which usually took more than an hour.

The DogBend Bend Stone Field has been mined for more than three years, and the amount of quarrying is very large every day. When I parked the car at the entrance of the field, I saw a quarrying surface of more than ten meters high. Although I had been mined through the steps, it still seemed particularly steep. Due to the good business, the stone field was working at full capacity, giving me vitality.

When he walked into the venue, Hou Weidong discovered the problem at a glance. None of the workers who were wearing stones were wearing hard helmets.

Old Tu, who was on duty, met Hou Weidong and hurriedly came over and said from afar: "Crazy, you haven't been here for a long time. You will have dinner at noon today. Everyone will toast you with a glass of wine." Hou Weidong's face tense and said: "Where is He Hongfu?" Old Tu saw that Hou Weidong's face was wrong and the smile on his face was a little stiff. He took out the cigarette and handed it over carefully, saying: "Secretary He went to the town for a meeting."

After Qin Dajiang was killed, He Hongfu became the village party secretary. Therefore, in addition to the matter of the dog-back bend stone field, he also had to be responsible for the matter of Dushi Village.

Hou Weidong took the cigarette handed to Lao Tu without saying a word, took two puffs, and said, "You ask all the workers to stop their hands, I have something to tell them."

The Dogbend Curtain Stone Field is the best among the five major stone yards in Shangqinglin. First, the resources are extremely abundant. The current mining volume is only a corner of the entire stone mountain. The Dogbend Curtain Stone Field is ready to dig a second mining surface to reduce mining costs; second, the equipment is the most advanced. In terms of equipment investment, Hou Weidong spares no expense. There are three large mining equipment in the entire stone mining, which has achieved semi-mechanization; third, the system is the most sound, and the quarrying process, safety measures and other systems are all on the wall, and the strictest implementation is that there are very few accidents in the Dogbend Curtain Stone Field. Apart from some minor injuries, no major safety accidents have occurred in the past three years. Fourth, the workers are treated the best. The basic salary of the front-line mining workers is combined with piece-based and timed systems. As long as you work hard, you can get one thousand yuan a month.

Because of this, Hou Weidong is the absolute boss in the dog back bend. After he spoke, all the jobs stopped, and soon more than forty people stood in front of Hou Weidong.

Hou Weidong glanced and found that at least one-third of the people were not wearing hard hats. He said, "The people wearing hard hats all walked to the left, and the people without hats were to the right."

When the crowd was divided into two piles, Hou Weidong asked, "What are you doing when you go to the dog's back?"

The workers did not know Hou Weidong's intention and looked at each other.

Hou Weidong said: "It's to make money, not to lose life. There have been many bloody accidents at Qinglin Stoneyard. Many of you have seen the tragic situation of Tian Damao and Qin Dajiang Stoneyard." He suddenly raised his voice, "Workers who don't wear hats are irresponsible for their lives and are irresponsible for their families. Anyone who doesn't wear a hard hat will be deducted for fifty yuan this month, Lao Tu will deduct five hundred yuan, and He Hongfu will deduct one thousand yuan. If I find out the second time, I will leave."

The group of people who did not wear safety helmets were originally smiling. When they heard that they were deducted fifty dollars, they immediately lost their smiles and they all cried.

After teaching a lesson, Hou Weidong said to the embarrassing old Tu: "Old Tu, don't be dissatisfied. The safety measures are high-voltage lines, and no one can touch them. I have set this rule since the construction of the dog's back bend."

Lao Tu said authentically: "The weather is hot, so wearing a hard helmet will cause heat stroke."

"Are you ready for ten drops of water?"

“Prepare.”

“Do you have a cool hair?

“This month.”

After receiving the affirmative reply, Hou Weidong said: "The rules I set cannot be broken."

He looked at the group of workers wearing hard hats and smiled on his face, saying, "Old Tu, the workers wearing hard hats today should praise you. Go and buy each of them a pack of red plum cigarettes, and send equivalent sugar if you don't smoke."

The worker wearing a hard hat clapped his hands loudly.

Hou Weidong fought and rewarded, turning small things into big things. He waved his hand and said, "It is only good for you to observe the safety system. You are not allowed to violate the rules next time. You can go back to your posts."

Several familiar workers gathered around, talked for a while, and returned to their posts one after another. Several people put their safety helmets at home and hurried home to pick them up.

Hou Weidong had a premeditation in this play. He was not in the dog's back for a long time. He was most afraid of lax management and He Hongfu's secret money, so he wanted to establish his authority in the dog's back.

When he left the dog's back bend, he said to Lao Tu: "Today's matter is a lesson. We must be more strict in the future. I have to see the account every few days and ask He Hongfu to prepare the bills in the next few days."

After leaving the dog's back bend, Hou Weidong called Zeng Xiangang and went straight to his house.

Zeng Xiangang's house is still the same as before, with high walls, iron gates, two big wolf dogs, and several big sandbags hanging in the yard.

Zeng Xiangang replaced the eye mask with a brown glasses, and his short hair stood upright. When he saw Hou Weidong entering the door, he said, "Crazy, you haven't been back for a long time." In Zeng Xiangang's mind, Hou Weidong was also a member of Qinglin, and he did not become unfamiliar with being transferred out of Qinglin Town.

He said again: "Don't worry, I will take back the dried pheasants from Wangri Village in a while, and all my dozen brothers under me will be dispatched."

Seeing that Zeng Xiangang's qi and blood had improved a lot, Hou Weidong said intimately: "Time is the best medicine, and Zeng Xiangang seems to be about to get out of the pain of his deceased wife."

The two sat at the door and chatted casually for a while about their current situation. Zeng Xianyong carried a few dried pheasants into the yard. After a while, several more people came back.

When they got twenty, Hou Weidong said, "I have an urgent matter today. I want to leave first. Let us have a good chat someday." Zeng Xiangang did not try to keep him. When he was sending Hou Weidong into the car, he said, "One of my comrades-in-arms opened an indoor building materials factory in Fujian and asked me to help him sell in Yiyang. I went to the city to buy a storefront and prepare to be his general agent."

"The Yiyang market is smaller, so it is best to develop in Shazhou."

"First come to Yiyang to try the market reaction. If it is good, then expand the scale."

Hou Weidong returned to the county party committee office and put ten dried pheasants in the trunk of Lao Liu's car, and the other ten were placed at home. He was about to deliver them to Zhu Yan's house.

Arrive at Shazhou City on time at four o'clock.

Gao Zhiyuan and Zhu Yan were very familiar with each other. After meeting, they made several jokes. Gao Zhiyuan glanced at Hou Weidong behind Zhu Yan and asked, "Secretary Zhu, is this your new secretary? This young man looks very familiar."
