Although Shangqinglin is remote, many leading cadres have gone abroad over the years. Gao Zhiyuan is currently the highest-ranking position, the director of Shazhou Municipal People's Congress and a regular department-level cadre.

Gao Zhiyuan was wearing a jacket, which was open casually and looked easy-going. His official power was not as good as Li Guangzhong, deputy director of the United Front Work Department of Shazhou City. Looking at the fiery labor scene, he unconsciously recalled the years when the red flag was flying and built the reservoir. Although he did a lot of ridiculous things in those years, the water conservancy construction he had done back then still played an important role today.

"Qin's second wives, how are your father okay?"

Qin Dajiang's father was once the branch secretary of Dushi Village and was very familiar with Gao Zhiyuan. Although he hadn't seen him for many years, Gao Zhiyuan still recognized Qin Dajiang. Although he is now middle-aged, his body is slightly fat.

"My dad left the year before yesterday."

Looking at the white hair on Gao Zhiyuan's forehead, Qin Dajiang said intimately: "When Gao Zhiyuan was a secretary in the village, he was full of heroism and now he is old."

"Let's go! Your father is in good health, and he is only seventy years old now." Gao Zhiyuan sighed and said, "Your father was a hero back then. When he built the Qinglin Reservoir, he led a thousand militiamen to Qinglin and fought for seven days and seven nights."

Gao Zhiyuan praised Qin Dajiang, "You are not bad either. I wanted to cultivate this road back then, but it was not completed. You have realized my dream."

Hou Weidong stood aside and listened respectfully as Gao Zhiyuan recalled his caressing.

Hearing Gao Zhiyuan's praise, Qin Dajiang rubbed his hands happily and said, "Secretary Gao, the biggest contributor to the road construction is Hou Weidong."

Zeng Xiangang followed and said, "Without Hou Weidong, this road will take several years."

Hou Weidong hurriedly said: "Building roads is the decision of the town government and the wish of the cadres and masses in Shangqinglin. I am just running errands, what are the contributions to it?"

Gao Zhiyuan then turned his head and looked at Hou Weidong and said, "You are Hou Weidong, a newly assigned college student."

Hou Weidong hurriedly said: "I am from the 89th grade of the Political and Law Department of Shazhou University, and I will start working this year."

Liu Wei was a relative of Gao Zhiyuan's mother's family. During the National Day holiday, Liu Wei went to Shazhou to study and brought some Yi Yang Lao Shanru to Gao's family. During the meal, he also talked about going to Qinglin to build roads.

There is no road access to Qinglin, which is an unforgettable regret in Gao Zhiyuan's heart. He heard that a newly graduated college student actually wanted to build Qinglin Highway, which made him both appreciate and doubt. One month later, Gao Zhiyuan still remembered this incident. Today was his father's death day. He came to Yiyang County one day in advance. After raising his father's grave, he came to the scene of the road construction.

This time, because he was doing a private matter, he did not disturb Yi Yang's leader, but only brought an office staff member and Liu Wei.

Gao Zhiyuan was very interested in Hou Weidong and asked: "What position does a newly graduated college student hold in the town?"

"Director Gao, I was only assigned to Yiyang Town this year and am now a member of the Qinglin Government's Qinglin Working Group."

Qin Dajiang was sincerely good to Hou Weidong, so he strongly recommended to Gao Zhiyuan: "Hou Weidong is the director of the office of the road construction leading group, and the highway construction drawings were retrieved by Director Hou in his private name."

Gao Zhiyuan looked back at Liu Wei and said, "You are a road construction technical consultant. Who designed this drawing? How much money did you charge? Can you lose it? It is a support for my hometown."

Although the highway drawings were designed by Liu Wei, they were hung in the name of others. In a legal sense, it has nothing to do with Liu Wei. Therefore, Liu Wei's expression remained unchanged and said: "This is a drawing drawn by Dingfeng Design Institute. According to industry standards, the design drawings cost more than 100,000 yuan. In order to support the road construction in Qinglin, including geological surveys and design drawings, a total of 20,000 yuan was collected."

Gao Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Twenty thousand yuan, that's about the same thing. Let's go, Hou Weidong, take me to see the newly built highway." He was very interested in the highway and walked along the pulled highway route to Xiaqinglin Highway. While he walked, he asked about the specific questions about the road construction.

Hou Weidong spent every day on the construction site during this period, and was familiar with the construction of the entire highway and the terrain. When answering Gao Zhiyuan's questions, he basically blurted out and heard Gao Zhiyuan nodding frequently.

"You are a political and legal person, so why are you so familiar with the technical requirements of road construction?"

Hou Weidong said embarrassedly: "The business knowledge is taught by Master Liu, but I actually don't fully master it. It's a typical half-cup of water."

Although the highway level is very low, it has basically taken shape, which made Gao Zhiyuan very happy. He was excited to go up the mountain again. Xiao Zhou, the Shazhou People's Congress Office, advised: "I will give Xiao Ai a page and let him drive the car over. When you walk up the mountain, your body will be unable to bear it."

Gao Zhiyuan waved his hand and said, "The air on Qinglin Mountain is fresh, and climbing is good for the body. You don't have to worry about me."

Seeing that Gao Zhiyuan was extremely excited, Xiao Zhou stopped stopping him, and everyone happily climbed up the mountain.

Gao Zhiyuan is from Shangqinglin and has worked in the mountain for many years. Along the way, there were passers-by who greeted him. Gao Zhiyuan had a very good attitude towards the members and stopped from time to time to say a few words to his acquaintances.

During this period, Hou Weidong was running around the road every day and willing to drink. He got along well with these villagers who built roads. These villagers also greeted him enthusiastically. Some people shouted the nickname "Hou Crazy" and made some vulgar jokes.

On the top of the mountain, the autumn wind was blowing, and it was already a little cool, but everyone was sweating heavily. Gao Zhiyuan looked into the distance and saw a lush forest. He was in a very comfortable mood. He said to the surrounding villagers and cadres: "After the road is repaired, I must come and see. Hou Weidong, the road construction is a great thing that benefits the present and the future. The Qinglin government has done a great thing. Is there any difficulty?"

Hou Weidong was a little nervous and said, "The town is in financial difficulties. The construction of roads mainly depends on villagers to invest in labor and raise funds. There is still a gap in funds. Especially after the gravel is paved, a roller needs to be crushed. The cost of the roller is very high. Secretary Gao, I am bold and please solve some of the funds."

Gao Zhiyuan thought for a while and said, "I won't be an official here anymore. Qinglin Mountain is my hometown, and I should also make some contributions to my hometown. In this way, I will say hello to Lutong Public Administration, and provide a road roller for free or at a low price. As for the money, I will look for Shazhou Transportation Bureau to see if they have any special funds to support the construction of township highways."

Hearing Gao Zhiyuan's statement, Hou Weidong clapped happily, and the village cadres also started filming under his guidance.

When Hou Weidong saw that it was noon, he took the initiative to say, "Secretary Gao, it's already lunch time. Can I represent the three villages in Qinglin? Please have lunch together to express our gratitude?"

"Okay, I'm really hungry after climbing the mountain, but I'm just hungry, but I'll just eat farm meals and go to the restaurant in the town."

Qin Dajiang said, "Secretary Gao, don't dislike it, just go to my house to eat, but the food tastes so good that it can't get away from the big restaurant outside, don't dislike it."

The group walked towards Qin Dajiang's house, killed the chicken and cut the fish, and started lunch at half past the hour.

After dinner, the village cadres sent Gao Zhiyuan to the intersection of the mountain. When they went down the mountain, Gao Zhiyuan called Hou Weidong to his side and said, "Hou Weidong, rural work is very training people. If you want to do well at the grassroots level, you will definitely achieve great things. Hou Crazy, this nickname is good, and the people of Qinglin agree with you very much."

Hou Weidong quickly expressed his opinion: "I will work hard and live up to the expectations of the organization and Secretary Gao for me."

Gao Zhiyuan said again: "What do you think next?"

This question was quite meaningful. Hou Weidong's heart was beating wildly. He calmed down and said, "I participated in the Yiyang Party and Government Cadre Public Recruitment this year. After taking the second place, I was assigned to Qinglin Town. Currently, I am the deputy leader of the Qinglin Government's Qinglin Working Group." He paused and said, "The main idea at present is to first repair the road, and then work with the cadres of the three villages to revitalize the qualifications of Shangqinglin Mountain and lead the masses to become rich."

Hou Weidong's answer made Gao Zhiyuan very satisfied. He didn't say much, patted his shoulder and said, "Do it well and lead the masses to become rich."
