Rebirth as an official

Lu Dahe opened his eyes with some displeasure. The sight frightened him and made him fall down from the recliner with a "plop".

"Head Li, Head Qiu, and Director Xu."

Lu Dahe looked at the people in front of him in surprise, why did these three big village leaders suddenly come to his house.

"Secretary Lu, are you planning to be Yang Zirong or a mountain eagle?" Li An glanced at the radio that was still playing "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" and said with a smile.

"I'm just listening and playing. Leaders, please sit down in the room." Lu Dahe quickly got up and turned off the radio.

"Guilan, we are a distinguished guest." Lu Dahe shouted into the room.

"Come on~ It's the mayor here again..." A woman in her 50s walked out of the room, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lu Dahe's strong cough.

"Ahem, cough, cough, hurry up and pour the tea." Lu Dahe glared at his wife.

"Several leaders, please take a seat in the room." Lu Dahe stretched out his hand, preparing to invite Li An and others into the room.

"Secretary Lu, you won't go into the house. Let's chat here." Li An pointed to the yard and said.

"Okay, okay." Lu Dahe nodded and shouted into the room, "Guilan, bring the tea outside."

"Sit down, leader." Lu Dahe quickly brought a few small bamboo chairs over.

After Li An sat down without any courtesy, he began to look at Lu Dahe's small yard and said, "Zhishu Lu's house is well built. I can say that your house is one of the best in the village."

"Fortunately, fortunately, it's all covered by the money earned by the eldest son." Lu Dahe explained quickly.

"Oh, Secretary Lu is so lucky. What does the eldest son do?" Li An asked casually.

"I opened a brick factory in the town and made a little money." Lu Dahe answered truthfully. Everyone in the village knew that his son opened a brick factory, so there was nothing to hide.

"It turns out you are the boss, no wonder." Li An showed his sudden realization.

After a few simple conversations, it suddenly quieted down and fell into a short silence.

Li An said nothing and seemed to be admiring Lu Dahe's yard with great interest.

Lu Dahe sat there with a slight bow. He didn't know the purpose of Li An and the others coming here at this time. He kept his smiling face and his eyes rolling around.

At this time, Lu Dahe's wife came over with tea. Lu Dahe said quickly: "Head Li, Head Qiu, and Director Xu have tea, drink tea."

Li An took the tea and thanked him. At this time, Mo Lan came over and said in a low voice: "Mr. Li, the people from the Shidi Office and the Party and Government Office have entered the village and started working. The police from the police station have already followed your request. I’m waiting at the village committee.”

Lu Dahe watched Mo Lan whisper in Li An's ear and couldn't hear clearly what was said. He felt as if there was a feather that kept fishing out, which was particularly uncomfortable.

At this time, Lu Dahe saw Li An nodded and looked at him again after listening to Mo Lan's whisper.

"Secretary Lu, I see that houses are being built everywhere in the village. Why is your house not being built?" Li An said while taking a sip of tea.

"Haha, my house is enough to live in, so I won't bother messing around." Lu Dahe's heart skipped a beat and he became nervous.

Li An nodded after listening, "So Secretary Lu is sitting quietly at home, not listening to what is going on outside the window, listening to plays, drinking tea, and living a leisurely life."

Lu Dahe felt that there was something in Li An's words, but he still didn't understand what he meant. He smiled and said, "It's just the daily life of ordinary people, nothing leisurely."

"Ordinary people?" Li An's voice suddenly changed, and his eyes turned sharp as he looked at Lu Dahe.

"Lü Dahe, you are not an ordinary citizen, you are the village party secretary of Xiahe Village."

"Li...Chang Li, what do you mean by this?" Lu Dahe was startled by the sudden change in style.

"Don't you think it's strange that the people in the village suddenly started building houses?" Li An began to question Lu Dahe.

"Is it weird for villagers to build houses? It's normal." Lu Dahe responded.

Seeing Lu Dahe's innocent and puzzled look, Li An secretly smiled and said, "This old guy has very good acting skills."

"Secretary Lu, do you need me to be so straightforward? Have these villagers gone through the procedures to expand their houses?"

"This~" Lu Dahe was speechless.

"As the village party secretary, why didn't you stop the illegal behavior of the villagers when you saw it?" Li An's voice became louder.

"They want to build a house, but it's useless even if I say so." Lu Dahe argued.

"Then what's the use of you as the village party secretary? I will report to Secretary Yu now and suspend you from your post first, and then pursue your issue." Li An's sentence was already a scolding.

Lu Dahe's previous words could have been ignored, but this "suspension" cost him his life. His face changed drastically, and he quickly begged: "I will deal with it right away."

"How do you deal with it?" Li An asked.

"I will summon the village cadres and go door to door to persuade them to suspend their duties and build houses." Lu Dahe said.

"When will you be able to persuade me with this method? Immediately use the village radio to notify the whole village to hold a village meeting in front of the village committee. Hurry up." Li An looked at the time, no longer wasting time with him, and ordered directly road.

The village's radio station is located at the village committee. Li An and his group followed Lu Dahe towards the village committee.

Xu Kai pulled Li An and whispered: "Anzi, there is obviously something wrong with this Lu Dahe, can you see it?"

"Well, otherwise I wouldn't have looked for Lu Dahe first." Li An nodded, and then waved to call Mo Lan to his side.

"Sister Lan, go and find out where these villagers buy the bricks they use to build their houses."

"Anzi, do you suspect that Lu Dahe is using rumors to make money?" Xu Kai asked.

"Finish the investigation first and then talk." Li An said.

After receiving Li An's order, Moran hurried away on his bicycle.

It didn't take long for Lu Dahe's voice to be heard from the loudspeakers in the village, "Fellow villagers, please send one person from each household to the village committee for a meeting..."

The sound of Lu Dahe kept ringing in the sky above the village.

It goes without saying that Lu Dahe's prestige in the village was more than an hour later, and more than 100 villagers had gathered in the open space of the village committee.

Some villagers gathered together in twos and threes. Their hands and faces were still stained with white ash or cement. It looked like they had just put down the houses they were building, and they were all chatting excitedly.

"How is your house doing?"

"We just built a wall. It's early. How about you?"

"Hey, there are not enough materials. The brick factory is out of stock now. Do you have any extra at home? Give it to me."

"Tch~ I don't have enough at home."

The topic between them at this moment is undoubtedly not about building a house and acquiring land.

Some villagers' faces were full of doubts. They saw the village party secretary and other village cadres standing at the door of the village committee, as well as three policemen and several people from other villages. They always felt that it was unusual to convene a meeting suddenly.
