"I would like to ask you whether the higher-ups have given a plan to deal with the large-scale damage to farmland by wild boars and the possibility of entering the village to attack villagers at any time, or whether the village has thought of countermeasures."

Mentioning the mention of these village chiefs, their expressions were solemn. Some villagers began to report about wild boars a few days ago. At that time, he thought there were only one or two. Wild boars occasionally wandered down the mountain every year, so he didn't take it seriously.

Later, more and more people told him, and he started to take it seriously.

After investigation, it was found that the number of wild boars that came down the mountain this time was roughly estimated to be several hundred.

He immediately reported this situation to the town, but the town didn't come up with any solutions. He is also worried about this now.

He shook his head and said, "The superiors asked me to come back first to count the damaged area, and didn't say anything else."

Meng Suisui frowned and said seriously, "Village Chief, this matter cannot be delayed any longer. It must be resolved as soon as possible. Every minute of delay, the affected area will be larger, and the villagers are always in danger."

Wang Haijiang said irritably, "I know! Do you think I'm not in a hurry? But you said that the villagers are not in danger. At most, they only need less food. You are a bit alarmist."

"I'm not being alarmist. Wild boars are ferocious and huge. If someone is injured or has serious consequences, it will be too late. If someone says that you didn't solve the problem in time, blame it on you. Go to town. If you complain to the leader, you will be very passive, why don't we find a solution as soon as possible."

Meng Suisui tried to reason and threaten, but Wang Haijiang was obviously worried.

"You think I don't want to solve the problem? How to solve the problem! According to you, I just ask the old men in the village to go up to the mountains to catch wild boars. This can't be considered passive and sabotage, right?"

Wang Haijiang's tone was very bad, and he still regarded Meng Suisui as someone who was here to cause trouble.

Meng Suisui didn't want to argue with her. She only knew that it was inappropriate for villagers to hunt wild animals privately.

It is now 1990. If she remembers correctly, the "Wildlife Protection Law of the People's Republic of China" was promulgated in 1988, which clearly stipulates that wild animals belong to the state and individuals are not allowed to hunt privately. Serious cases may involve prison sentences.

But now she is a village woman who doesn't often pay attention to national affairs, and there are some things she cannot say directly.

"Uncle Wang, why don't you ask the superiors first if they agree to hunt, or if they have any better way? It would be better if they can provide tools and financial support or send professionals to hunt. Besides, after consent, If something goes wrong while we’re catching wild boars, at least the responsibility won’t fall entirely on the village.”

It sounds reasonable. If he leads the villagers to catch wild boars, if someone breaks an arm or leg, he cannot bear the responsibility.

Thinking that it wouldn't take long to go to town and back, it would be better to ask.

It's not that easy to be an official now. Most of the villagers give him some respect as the village chief, but there are also some who are jealous and refuse to accept his control.

Some villagers petitioned and complained at every turn, which made him have to be careful no matter what he did.

Wang Haijiang realized the seriousness of the matter after Meng Suisui's reminder, and rode his bicycle to the town without stopping.

Two hours later, he came out of the leadership room sweating profusely.

He took out his handkerchief and timidly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

After asking, I found out that he almost made a big mistake.

If he leads the villagers to hunt wild animals without permission from his superiors, not only will he lose his job, but he may also end up in trouble.

The leader gave him a severe scolding and asked him to learn more about legal provisions and not to be blind.

When he came this time, he also heard that a wild boar entered Meiman Village last night and injured two villagers. An old lady had her ribs broken, and a young man had a bloody gash in his stomach by the wild boar's tusks. If he hadn't been sent to the hospital in time, he would have almost died. He died of excessive blood loss.

After knowing this, he became anxious. It seemed that Meng Suisui was not being alarmist.

However, there is also a good thing this time. The superiors have approved 1000 yuan for Huanxi Village as a special fund to control the wild boar problem, which can be used in this wild boar control activity.

On the way back, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

This time Meng Suisui saved his life.

There was also the matter of special funds. If Meng Suisui hadn't reminded her that she could seek help from her superiors, he wouldn't have been able to grant it to him if he hadn't taken the initiative to mention the money to the leader.

It's strange, when did Meng Suisui become so smart? Things he didn't expect were thought of by a village woman.

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but admire Meng Suisui.

This was the first time he had such emotions towards a peasant woman.

On the other side, after Meng Suisui came out of the village department, she went directly to the village maintenance department.

Although it is said to be a maintenance department, it actually has no brand name. It is a family workshop.

Zhou Da is smart and handy. When he was a teenager, he learned electric welding from an apprentice. If anyone in the village had a broken hoe or shovel, they would come to him to fix it.

Just now, she borrowed pen and paper from the village cadre at the village headquarters and drew a sketch based on the shape of the spring cover in her memory.

Seeing her entering the courtyard, Zhou Da took off the welding goggles, revealed his dark face, and asked coldly.

"Are you here for something?"

To be honest, he didn't want to do Meng Suisui's business. No matter how perfect the things he made were, Meng Suisui would always find trouble with him just to refuse to pay.

Meng Suisui showed the picture to Zhou Da.

Zhou Da took it and took a look at it with an impatient expression. After reading the picture, the way he looked at Meng Suisui immediately changed.

"Qibao Niang, where did this picture come from?"

"What do you think of what I just drew? Can you understand it? If you have any questions, please tell me."

She is confident in the pictures she draws. Although she has never studied drawing professionally, she has opened a whole-house customization company. She naturally understands a little bit about drawing after seeing more design drawings.

Zhou Da said with surprise written on his face as he looked at the drawings.

"I can understand it, so there's no problem for now."

"Then can you do it?"

"I've done something similar before, but it's not quite the same as this, but it should be fine and can be done."

Just do it.

If this matter could be resolved in the village, she wouldn't have to go all the way to find someone else.

Zhou Da asked: "When do you want it?"

"The sooner the better." Meng Suisui asked, "How long will it take to make it?"

There are not many things needed, they are all available in the warehouse, and the structure is not too complicated.

"About an hour."

"Okay, then do it quickly."

Meng Suisui was very anxious.

She didn't know if her memory was wrong, and she didn't know if Zhou Da could make it according to her drawings, let alone how it would be used after making it...

Even these are no problem.

This time the wild boar descended the mountain on such a large scale, whether a large number of tools can be made in a short period of time is also an unavoidable question.

Huh? Why is Zhou Da still standing there?

"Any more questions?" Meng Suisui asked.

Zhou Da said bluntly, "You have failed to pay me several times before, so you let me use materials and labor for nothing, and you made me almost mad every time. Thinking about it, if you were me, I would still dare to believe it. You?"

Meng Suisui's head was buzzing as she recalled many famous scenes in which her original self defaulted on debts and blackmailed people.

Help, why on earth can such a poor person live to be over 30 years old? These villagers must have too good tempers.

Even if she didn't do it, she couldn't help but blush at this moment.
