Chapter 146 Bribery

The county lieutenant and the local district chief were in charge of this matter. At that time, he asked and said that they were extremely strong and that it was not a dangerous dam. Generally, a newly built dam would not be a problem for ten years. Isn't it possible in 1978?

  As a result, it collapsed within five years. This is still past the flood period. If it hasn’t passed...

  Fu County magistrate can't help but shudder as long as he thinks about the consequences.

  The court doesn’t care who built that dam. As long as something happened during his tenure, it was his responsibility.

  So he has to repair this dam, and it has to be repaired!

  But where does the money come from?

  It is rare for Mr. Zhuang to sit with Master Bai for dinner and drink, and the two are also talking about the dike. "Today the chief has already contacted me, saying that the county government might issue a military order."

  Mr. Zhuang nodded, “It’s the end of autumn now, and it’s going to be cold in the next month. It’s better to build the river dam at this time, otherwise the weather will be cold, and the clerk may not be able to bear it.”

  After all, building a river dam is different from building a road and digging water conservancy. People may still stand in the water. If the weather is too cold, people will not go down at all. If they are ill, they may die.

  Mr. Zhuang doesn’t worry about anything else, he is worried about money, "I don’t know where the county grandfather wants to allocate this part of the money."

  Master Bai did not speak, who knows this?

  This county grandfather did not have a clean and honest post, but the last...

  Master Bai frowned. How could the dam of Dingjiang Village collapse in just five years?

At this time, Zhou Dalang was talking to his family about the construction of the Dingjiang Village dyke, "...At the beginning, a lot of stones and wood were sent, and there was also a kind of mud, which is said to be waterproof. When the dam is built, it can be painted up. Waterproof. But then someone said that the mud was useless. They had never heard of mud waterproof, so they took away the mud again."

  Man Bao listened with gusto, and moved the wooden pier forward, sitting next to her father with a small face and listening. Seeing that the eldest brother had finished speaking, he quickly asked, "Big brother, is there any difference between repairing a dam and repairing water conservancy?"

"Of course it is. No matter how the water is blocked in the river, it will be blocked continuously. Therefore, the Lauding built in the opening is standing in the water. The flesh will be red, just like a bug bite."

Having said this, Zhou Dalang looked at Chu Lang, and said: "So you must not offend the guards when you go to the service, or he will make you stand in the water all day, and you can't take turns. I'm afraid you won't wait until you finish your service. , You won’t be able to use your legs."

  Thursday Lang glanced down at his leg, shivering vigorously.

  He didn’t want to go anymore, and looked at his father baba, “Father, I, I’m not a child yet, it’s only eighteen in a month.”

Old Zhoutou took out the tobacco. He finally got the tobacco. He took a silent sip and said: "It's not too young, I'll go to the district chief in two days, I'll report you to a dice, and I will divide the land. of."

  Although he shouldn’t, Zhou Dalang couldn’t help being happy. He didn’t want to go to work, especially the work of building river dams.

  He patted Chu Lang on the shoulder and heaved a sigh of relief.

  Xiao Qian was also very happy. When he was making dinner, he applied for it with his mother-in-law, and cooked two eggs for Chu Lang to eat.

  Thursday Lang who received special treatment for the first time:...

  Man Bao could not feel the same for her fourth brother, so she was not affected at all, but happily ate all the rice in her bowl, and then went to count and divide the money.

After all the money was divided, she wrote to Miss Fu Er under the light of the sun before it went down. She told Miss Fu Er that her fourth brother might be going to serve in the military, and she was very interested in the materials for building the river dam. Ask her if there is really waterproof mud in the world.

  Is there any waterproof mud in the world?

  Of course there is.

  In addition to stones, wood and clay, this waterproof mud is also the main procurement material of the county government, so he and the master book calculated the money, and finally decided to release the river donation.

  Of course, he didn’t want to publish the tax dues. Order Fu had to apply for it, but before applying, he applied for the cost of building the river dam.

  Sure enough, he was beaten back, and then he handed over the official documents for the river donation. This time it came down quickly, but the number of river donations was reduced by half.

  However, this was also within Fu's expectation. He did not worry about the matter anymore. At this time, six days have passed since the breach of the river dam. It would be cold if he didn't start to build the river dam.

When the chief of    brought people from door to door to collect the river donation, the service order came down. On Thursday, Lang went to pack his luggage with a bitter face.

  Although the family decided to let him go to serve, he still insisted on going to the county to sell **** every day, because he had nothing to do at home. When he went to the county, he could eat a meat bun or a vegetarian bun every day at noon?

  However, in order to nurture him and make him a little stronger, the food provided to him at home has improved a lot. Now the best food at home is Man Bao and him.

  No, it should be said that he eats better than Manbao.

  Because Manbao eats less, he eats more.

  Two eggs every morning, and meat buns at noon, and meat or eggs to eat at night, but unfortunately, the time is too short, and he will go to the military service before he can get fat.

  He donation is called donation, but it’s not all on your mind to donate if you want, or don’t donate if you don’t want to donate. Except for individual poor households, who are circled by the county magistrate, all other families have to pay a certain amount of donation.

  This time I only charge money, not food.

  Because of the food received, the county magistrate had to bother to change the food into money to buy materials. Fortunately, the donation was cut in half, which is not very heavy, and the families can still afford it.

  And rich people like Mr. Bai will donate more.

  Master Bai donated twelve taels of silver at once, making the chief of the city smile, and the expression on his face was very good when he walked all the way to the village to collect the money.

  Man Bao just happened to be at home, curiously pawing at the door to look at the length.

  Lao Zhou paid the money, and called Chu Lang to his side to let the liar see him, "li li, this is my fourth kid, he will be a **** next month."

  Li Chang squinted at Chu Lang and saw that although he was thin, but in good spirits and strong, he nodded in satisfaction and asked, "This time is he going to serve?"

   "Yes, it is logically his turn. When he returns from the river dam, the family should prepare a house for him to start a family."

It's natural to have a dingtian when you get married. The head of the district laughed and patted Chu Lang on the shoulder. He was in a good mood today, so he relaxed and said: "There are only two children in the village this year. Divide them into two equal parts at the time, and let them grab lots."

  Lao Zhou let out a sigh of relief, and stuffed him the twenty cents that had been pinched in his sleeve, and then patted Chu Lang on the back, "Why don't you thank Li Chang?"

  Thursday Lang hurriedly bent over and thanked him.

  Li Chang took the money and said with a smile: "This is a matter of the old, no thanks."

  In addition to money, Lao Zhou also prepared a bag of **** for the chief. He said, “It’s not worth what you grow in the vegetable garden at home. Take it back and make tea.”

  Man Bao's eyes are full of curiosity.
