Village chief, your township enterprise sells laser cannons?

Chapter 97: A flood of举报信 like snowflakes!

Lin Yaofu's answer left Lin Yaohai somewhat at a loss. He fanned himself with the dried fish for a while, then lowered his voice and said:

Why do you think village committee elections involve money?

"Lin Yaozu paid!" Lin Yaofu put down the dried fish in his hand, stood up straight, and replied confidently. Then he looked Lin Yaohai up and down, "Don't you have the money this time?"

"I don't have a single penny!" Lin Yaohai spread his hands. "I'm just here to help campaign for Yaodong to become the deputy village head..."

Lin Yaohai recited the list Lin Man had given him, as if reciting a menu.

After announcing the list, he continued fanning himself with the dried fish: "If you think it's suitable, then vote; if you don't think it's suitable, then don't vote."

After saying those two sentences, Lin Yaohai turned and walked out. The people left in the courtyard stopped what they were doing, looked up at Lin Yaohai as he left, and then quickly looked back at Lin Yaofu.

Feeling the gaze of his own family members, Lin Yaofu took a deep breath and quickly started walking to catch up with Lin Yaohai:

"You just left looking so fresh and beautiful?"

"You want money, but you don't have any. Why shouldn't I leave?" Lin Yaohai rolled his eyes and continued walking. Lin Yaofu caught up with him again.

"You could at least say something more, like some other benefits..."

Upon hearing the word "benefits," Lin Yaohai shook his head. He stopped and looked at Lin Yaofu: "No, these are Xiaoman's exact words!"

"The village committee wants reliable people; they can choose unreliable people, it doesn't matter."

"If someone else offers you money, take it and go choose."

"Don't blame me if you get scammed later."

After saying those two sentences, Lin Yaohai turned and walked into another courtyard.

"Brother Yaojun, are you asleep? I need to talk to you about something..."

On the cement road, watching Lin Yaohai's figure disappear in front of Lin Yaojun's house, Lin Yaofu lowered his head and thought for a while before turning around and going home.

He closed the courtyard gate and asked his wife:

"Do you remember Xie Hua, the guy Yao Hai mentioned earlier?"

"Why do I feel like I've never heard of this person before?"

Lin Yaofu's wife thought for a while, shook her head, and was about to say she didn't know when her daughter-in-law spoke up: "It seems to be Cheng Gui's daughter-in-law. I saw her when they held their wedding banquet last April, and I think her name is Xie Hua."

"She's a really nice person. She often pushes her twins around the village in a stroller. Dad, you should have met her!"

When the topic of twins came up, Lin Yaofu finally remembered one such person.

She is a very polite girl who is always ready to greet people and can accurately address anyone.

He had encountered her a few times, and each time, the girl would happily show off her twins and then take out candy from the stroller to offer to the elders.

Overall, he is at least a good person on the surface.

Having figured out Xie Hua's identity, Lin Yaofu began to recall a few other names. In doing so, he noticed that the people Lin Yaohai had mentioned all seemed quite reliable overall.

They're at least more reliable than Lin Yaozu's group and the others listed on the bulletin board.

Even Li Mingxiu, the shrew who could yell at people for an hour and a half, was only criticizing the village secretary for inaction.

That was genuinely for the benefit of the villagers.

These people seem... seem like we could choose them!

While he was thinking, Lin Yaohai left the house under Lin Yaojun's watchful gaze. After looking around, he found that the doors of several houses were closed and the lights were off. He decided to walk out of the alley and go find someone else.

While he was busy campaigning, at Wei Zhenliang's home in Group 4 of Hongxing Village, Wei Zhenliang was looking at the list of candidates that Lin Man had posted that afternoon.

Beside him were a dozen or so members of the Wei family who were relatively close to him.

These people sat in a circle around Wei Zhenliang, all their eyes fixed on him.

It was already late at night, and the group of people were already yawning.

But Wei Zhenliang didn't say anything, so they could only sit aside and wait with him.

About ten minutes later, Wei Zhenliang placed the list of candidates on the table and gently tapped it with his right index finger:

"Hongxing Village is currently in dire need of reconstruction. Once the village committee is elected and things are running smoothly, there will definitely be a series of support policies from above."

"The people in the village who can decide where these assistance policies go are the village secretary and the village head, and the people who can implement these policies are the deputy village head."

"Lin Man holds both the positions of village secretary and village head, making the position of deputy village head particularly important."

"So we must take down the deputy village chief. Everyone come here, let me tell you how to strike at the enemy..."

"The first option is to bribe them with money. Lin Yaozu spent five thousand yuan to become the village chief back then, but now that the economy is down, I think one thousand yuan is enough for us. Let's all chip in later."

"The second point is to report people. No one is perfect, and nothing is flawless. I'll organize the information of the people on the list later, and we'll start writing the report letters first thing tomorrow morning."

"Once a report is received, the village election committee must take action!"

"There are too many things to do, and other candidates will be eliminated, so in the end, only our people will be left."

So, keep it up!

Finally getting a word out of him, the Wei family members around him breathed a sigh of relief. They stood up with wide eyes, repeated Wei Zhenliang's words, and then turned and left Wei Zhenliang's house!

As the sun rose and set, it was another Monday. Ding Jiayi opened the window and took a deep breath of the humid air that was blowing in from the sea.

After several busy days in Hongxing Village, she and her few misfits finally finished verifying all the real-name reports.

Now, all she needs to do is bring the information she collected in Hongxing Village back to the province, sort it out according to the requirements, report it as required, and finally archive it. That will complete the investigation of those dozens of real-name reports.

This time, after returning to the province, she took a good two-day rest and treated her family to a hot pot meal!

Thinking about the good life she would have after returning to the provincial capital, Ding Jiayi was in high spirits. She opened her arms wide and shouted towards the distant sea, "Oh, the sea..."

Before Ding Jiayi could even utter the words "You're all water," there was a knock on her door from the outside. "Captain, come out quickly! Something's happened again!"

Upon hearing that something had happened, and that there was another word, Ding Jiayi quickly ran out the door. As soon as she ran out the door, she saw her teammate who was in a hurry. Her gaze fell on her teammate for less than 2 seconds before she noticed a large pile of white envelopes at her teammate's feet.

The moment Ding Jiayi saw the envelopes, her face twitched. Then, she slowly raised her hand and pointed to the large pile of white envelopes:

"Tell me, what is this?"

Before he could finish speaking, the teammate standing amidst a pile of envelopes explained in a panic, "Didn't you say we were going back to the provincial capital at noon today?"

"I just wanted to see if anyone would actually leave mail in this mailbox with this address."

"So I came over to check my mailbox, and as soon as I opened it, more than a hundred emails popped out."

"That's terrifying."
