Chapter 126
Xi Rong raised his head and looked at the villagers: "Village Chief Tang is actually right. Logically speaking, I have no right to meddle in your village's internal affairs."

"But the authorities are obsessed with bystanders. As an outsider, I can talk about my knowledge of your village."

"Sanliwan is a place of geomantic omen. For thousands of years, there have been no major disasters. Even when the whole country is struggling, you still have the mountains behind you to rely on."

"This kind of life is definitely a good life in the self-sufficient environment of farming and weaving. But now the times are different and the world has changed."

"Study, get out of the mountains, change your own destiny, and change the destiny of your loved ones. With this belief, He Yaozu of Hejiazhuang was the first college student in the county. Now he has graduated and is assigned to the forestry bureau of the county as a cadre."

"Wang Hansheng from Wangjiapu was admitted to the normal school and became a teacher in the county. He is highly valued. In the past two years, his village has produced more than a dozen college students."

"Tian Yuanwang from Tianshanghe has been admitted to the military academy and is an officer in the army. How many good seedlings of the army have passed through the village in the past two years."

……

Xi Rong counted the celebrities from other villages, and also stunned the people from Sanliwan present.

"Obviously you are the big village that is famous far and near, but there is no one in the village who studies, and no one walks out of the mountains in a decent way."

"Yes, everyone has mud legs, and it doesn't make any difference if you go out, but have you ever thought that one day in the future, when high-rise buildings in other villages rise on the ground, and happy lives are on the horizon, you are still working from dawn to dusk, The injustice when going to the field to farm.”

"I think these four people are not the only ones who made a wrong decision for me to hand over the ancient tomb this time. But I did it, why did I do it? It is definitely not to harm you."

"Every man is pregnant, what is the crime? On the other side of the ancient tomb, that is, the side of the back mountain near Hejiazhuang, the tomb robbers dug a passage that can accommodate two people. One day, the mountain will dig Wear it, and find the ancient tomb you guard."

"There really will be a day when you who protect the secrets of the ancient tomb will survive?"

Xi Rong's question quickly won the consent of most people.

The mood of the crowd was almost mobilized, Xi Rong didn't continue to speak, and gave the opportunity to Tang Guyeng.

"Uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, I, Tang Gumeng, am young and have studied for two years, but in terms of vision, you are definitely not as good as me."

"I have been making a fuss about studying until August, and the neighbors all know that I want to study and go to school."

"After August, I figured it out. In the world, reading is not the only way. I can break through the world without reading, so I left Three Mile Bay."

"The me now, after being severely beaten by the society, reading is the only way out for us who were born and grew up in Dashan. So I decided, I want to study."

Tang Gumeng's eyes were firm: "So, I want to set up a village primary school, so that the children in the village can go to school without having to travel thousands of miles to other places, and they don't have to get up early and late, and be scared along the way."

"I have this idea. I am not doing this for myself. I want San Mile Bay to become the real No. village."

Tang Gumeng spoke emotionally, which shook people's spirits.

Liu Aihua asked loudly: "Girl Gumeng, who can't speak big words, I even said that I can make Sanliwan into a palace!"

Tang Gumeng twitched the corners of his mouth: "The Qing Dynasty has been dead for decades, and you still want the imperial palace? You also went to the ancient tomb yesterday. The emperor lives in such a prosperous place when he is dead, let alone alive. If you can build it , the whole village will offer incense and worship to you every year and festival, and offer it up."

Liu Aihua stopped talking.

"It's not for me, a junior, to judge how the village head does things, but I think that an excellent village head should be able to lead the villagers to go hand in hand and create a better life, instead of fighting each other every day just to calculate those things in the village. .”

"What happened this time has already happened. I propose that we re-elect the village chief, and choose a village chief who is willing to lead us to work hard."

Tang Hongwei became anxious when he heard this, and roared angrily: "Tang Gumeng, you are a child, you don't care about the affairs of adults, just do your own."

Tang Jiashu stood up in a timely manner: "I agree with Gu Meng's statement."

"Tang Jiagen, you're crazy about wanting to be the village chief, but unfortunately, you won't be able to hold the position of village chief in this lifetime."

Tang Jiagen turned around and faced everyone.

"On the surface, the village head of our village was elected by everyone. In fact, everyone knows what is going on."

"Since Tang Hongwei became the village head, we have to pay to % more than other villages when paying grain every year. Where did the extra part go? Tang Hongwei took it as a favor."

Tang Hongwei's eyes turned red anxiously: "Tang Jiagen, stop talking nonsense, I've never done it before."

Tang Jiagen sneered: "Tang Hongwei, you haven't covered the sky with your own hands. How much food you pay every year, you can find out if you go out and inquire a little bit. Do you think I'm the only one who knows about this?"

Someone in the crowd immediately stood up and echoed: "Yes, when I heard about it from my Yue family, I thought it was strange. I asked Tang Hongwei when I came back, and she said that we are a big village and the country is in trouble, so we should contribute more of our strength."

"I also asked, but Tang Hongwei said something different. He said that we didn't suffer a loss, and the extra food was exchanged into tickets, so we can use it more generously."

"Ah bah! Tang Hongwei didn't tell the truth. Our tickets are exactly the same as other villages every year, and sometimes they are even worse than a big village like Hejiazhuang."

"Tang Jiashu, did Tang Hongwei eat up all the tickets he used?"

Tang Jiashu smiled: "Whether it was taken by Tang Hongwei, I have no evidence, and I have no way to prove it, but Tang Hongwei's wife spends a lot of money on shopping, and she keeps meat and vegetables for a year, so there is always something tricky."

"It's not just about the payment of food, but also about his attitude. Tang Hongwei is not a competent village chief either."

"The village head is an official, and the official has an official tone and authority. Tang Hongwei is usually more confident, and we didn't say anything, but none of Tang Hongwei's sons is a little bully in the village. If any child is disobedient, he will definitely be beaten. After a meal, I dare not come to the door to make a theory."

"You have been bullied all your life, do you still want your children to be so useless all their lives?"

After Tang Jiashu's words fell, Tang Hongwei's eldest son, Tang Ruixing, stood up immediately: "Uncles, aunts and aunts, I was ignorant when I was young and caused trouble for everyone. I will apologize to everyone here. But this has nothing to do with my father , I thought you didn’t want to implicate him.”

When Tang Hongwei was restrained, Tang Ruifeng couldn't bear it any longer. Seeing that his elder brother stood up and gave in, he felt that his majesty had been challenged, and shouted in a rough voice: "Brother, with this group of people There's nothing to apologize for."

Tang Ruixing glanced over, and Tang Ruifeng was taken away with his mouth covered.

Tang Ruixing was one of the few sensible people in Tang Hongwei's family. If what happened today, Tang Hongwei would not have any good results.Now that people have proposed re-election, Tang Hongwei, the village chief, will not be here for long.

Without the position of village chief, if he stayed in Sanliwan in the future, he would be troubled by people who had been bullied before. Tang Ruixing didn't want to live in an unstable life in the future, so he expressed his attitude in advance.

But all the dissatisfaction of the villagers towards Tang Hongwei had gathered at this moment, and they didn't even bother Tang Ruixing's promise.

"Apologizing is useful, but why do you need the police?"

"That is, the words are beautiful, but they don't do anything. I agree with re-election. I want to choose a village chief who can make us rich."

"If I'm really sincere, I will bully us in the past. Let us bully us back. I just want to clear things up by saying a few words like this. Do you think we are fools? What do you mean?"

"I also agree with re-election. We don't want to be rich and powerful. We were comfortable before. We are all peasants. Some people are superior and live a superior life, but I am not as good as a dog."

"I agree too"

……

Half of the people present agreed to re-election, half of them hesitated, and a small number of people, who once worked hand in hand with Tang Hongwei, were still worrying about how they would live in Sanliwan in the future.

Tang Hongwei was completely hopeless now, standing where he was, with unintelligible eyes, but every time he looked at Tang Jiashu, no one could ignore the hatred in his glance.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, let's choose a good day to handle this matter. Those who are willing to run for village head should prepare their own speeches, and they can run for election at that time."

Tang Jiashu was silent for a moment: "Or in three days' time, Tang Hongwei's matter is settled, and we will handle it together."

Others at the scene agreed, and the matter was settled.

"In the next two days, Tang Hongwei will definitely be investigated. There are not many things going on in the village, but when the archaeological team and the police come over, there must be a receptionist. Everyone will see who is suitable and choose someone to act as the temporary village chief. "

"Why don't we just use the Tang family tree?" Someone in the crowd suggested.

Tang Jiashu quickly shook his head: "I can't do this. We are just mud legs. We can't compare with other big leaders. If we stand together, our momentum will be three points weaker. It will be bad if others look down on our village. .”

Tang Jiashu said that he couldn't do it, and no one else came forward.

Tang Gumeng looked at the crowd, and now in the final leadership team, everyone looked anxiously and looked in Tang Gumeng's direction.

There were five leaders in the village, except for Tang Hongwei and his wife, and the rest did not go too far.

And the leadership team cannot really be completely replaced, otherwise something will happen, and no one will make a joke if no one mentions it.

Tang Gumeng's eyes fixed on one person, and he suggested: "In the past, the secretary was in charge of any major affairs in the village. Since no one is willing to take over, how about the secretary temporarily taking charge of this matter? Work harder?"

The last sentence was to the secretary.
