Excellent little farmer

"Well! Find out their social relations immediately, and try to find as many elders of the Zhang family as possible who can talk to them. Yes, first get them through their ideological work and show the attitude of the party committee and government. Where is Luo Yaozu? On the periphery? This Just leave this thing to him and let him do it right away!”

I pressed the phone firmly and took a deep breath. In just a moment, the shirt on my back was soaked through. The extreme nervousness combined with the high speed of my brain made my mouth taste bitter, until Kong Lingguang handed over the water glass. , I just reacted and took a big sip.

What is supposed to come will always come. This sentence seems to be said by the crow's mouth. It seems that my crow's mouth is unfortunately right. I can't help but smile bitterly.

The powerful air-conditioning of the Buick New Century air conditioner did nothing to relieve my nervousness. This was the first time I had encountered such a large-scale mass incident. I had encountered it before when I was the director of the Office of the Development Zone Management Committee, but They were all responsible for handling matters following orders from superiors, and they were never actually personally responsible for handling such matters.

Although Tan Lifeng has already arrived at the scene, this is probably the first time for anyone to encounter such a large-scale mass incident.

In the past, it was just a few dozen people, or at most a hundred or so people, and it was just some interest issues, which were relatively mild, but now this time it involves human life. Although it is suicide by drinking pesticide, it is still a human life after all. , regardless of whether the government has responsibility or not, first of all, it is morally passive.

The mentality of ordinary people is sympathetic to the weak, and the mentality of following the crowd is easily aroused. Many people will not even judge what is going on. As long as someone shouts, they will follow suit. From a psychological point of view, It is difficult for ordinary people to control their emotions in such a fanatical atmosphere. In this situation, if not handled properly, it can easily lead to an unmanageable catastrophe.

The Buick left Jingxian County and drove south. Matun Township was relatively remote. The driver Xiao Wang probably knew the route. He went south from the county road and turned to a branch road to the east after more than 20 kilometers. In fact, it was just a badly damaged road. The stone road was surrounded by undulating dry land on both sides, and the strong smoky smell of burning wheat straw heads filled the air, adding to my inner restlessness.

About ten kilometers past the fork road, more and more people were scattered on the fork road. They were wearing slippers and shaking cattail fans. Some of them were holding children. Obviously, these people were going to the township government to watch the excitement. I saw I looked at my watch and saw that it was already five o'clock in the afternoon and almost six o'clock in the afternoon, but the sky was still bright.

Li Changjiang picked me up at a secluded place one kilometer away from the township government. Judging from Li Changjiang's expression, the matter was not as serious as I imagined. I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lao Li, let's not talk about the early stage. I have a general understanding. How is the situation on site now? What are their requirements, and how are the county committee and county government prepared to respond?" I was not polite and went straight to the topic.

Before Li Changjiang came to the city, he served as the Secretary of the Jingxian County Party Committee for four years. Although the economic development of Jingxian County has been slow, Li Changjiang himself is relatively clean and has a good official reputation, so he can afford to speak hard words.

"There are about seven or eight hundred people at the scene now. In the early days, when there were only one or two hundred people, there were some conflicts with the police from the County Public Security Bureau who were responsible for guarding the township government. They knocked down a large part of the township government wall and smashed the wall. A transformer nearby caused a power outage." Li Changjiang unbuttoned one of his shirt buttons and licked his lips that were cracked due to dryness.

"They probably don't have a unified opinion yet. Now I have arranged for about 20 plainclothes people from the County Public Security Bureau and the Municipal Bureau to go in to keep abreast of the situation. According to the feedback information, among the seven or eight hundred people now, Zhang There are about 200 people with the surname Zhang in the family courtyard. Among them, there are about 30 or 40 people who have a clear blood relationship with the deceased. The others are those who are senior in the family, but actually have little blood relationship. The rest Among the hundreds of people, some are people with mixed surnames from the Zhang family compound, and a considerable number are ordinary people who live near the township government."

"In other words, they don't have a clear opinion internally?"

My heart became more and more tense. It would be much better if I had a clear opinion. At least I understood their intentions, and then I could come up with targeted countermeasures. Whether it was sitting down to discuss or negotiate, that would be fine. Resolve conflicting emotions to a great extent.

But now these people do not have a unanimous opinion, which means they are in an unstable state and may be swayed by some simple-minded and easily excited people at any time, causing the situation to worsen.

I tried to calm down my emotions and asked, "Lao Li, are the people trapped in the township government not injured?"

“At that time, there was just some pushing and grabbing, and two police officers had their clothes torn, but there was no violent conflict. Our police were also relatively restrained. As long as they did not attack, smash, smash, or rob, the police would just give them good advice. .”

Li Changjiang nodded and said: "I specifically told you that the person in charge of the on-site command is Liao Zijian, the political commissar of the Jing County Public Security Bureau. He is an old comrade with rich experience and authority. He can control the situation for the time being, but time If you delay it for too long, you don’t know if there will be any changes.”

"Lao Li, I don't think procrastination like this is the answer. The situation may worsen at any time. They may not be able to calm down for a while and find it difficult to consider follow-up matters. However, we cannot sit back and wait, otherwise we will be attacked by some people with ulterior motives or dissatisfaction with the party committee and government. If they are used and instigated, big trouble may happen. I think so, didn't Luo Yaozu arrange for someone to go find someone from the Zhang family who is senior and has some prestige?"

I thought for a moment and then said: "I asked Luo Yaozu, and he said that the deputy director of the Cultural Affairs Committee of the County CPPCC, who seems to be from the Zhang family courtyard, has already arranged for someone to pick him up. As soon as he arrives, let him go in and guide him directly, and then let him go The township government asked two people who are usually good people and have some prestige among the masses to go in together and provide positive guidance. Here, Wu Zishan and others are asked to prepare for the reception and talk, stabilize the people's emotions as soon as possible, and enter the negotiation stage."

"Well! I think it's okay. Secretary Tan has already arrived at the scene. How about we meet first and discuss how to deal with it. If the people we find can be effective, I think we can also find some people from the countryside. Influential people will help persuade irrelevant people to leave first, and I have arranged people to do work on the periphery."

Li Changjiang quite agrees with my opinion. He has been the public security chief for more than one year and nearly two years. He and I, who deal with the public security, have a lot in common on some points. He also admires my quick and broad thinking and my ability to work in the public security field. To become the executive deputy mayor at this age, it is useless to rely solely on background connections. Without some real materials, even if you are allowed to sit in this position, you will not be able to sit firmly.

"By the way, where did the deceased's husband I asked you to investigate work? Have you found out?"

I suddenly remembered something. Today is the era of market economy. These migrant workers have seen a lot. They have lost the respect for rural cadres in the planned economy era in the past. Instead, they are submissive to those private bosses who can directly control their jobs. , if we could find the upline boss of this group of people and ask him to help from the side, the situation might be much better.

"It's been found out. He works in a project department of Longhua Civil Engineering Construction Company in the city. I have arranged for someone to find the boss of the project department that contracted the contract, and asked them to notify me as soon as they get in touch." Li Changjiang replied quickly. Dao, my brain is indeed very useful. Being able to think of this way is not something ordinary people can do.

"Well, you urge them over there and ask them to make every effort to find this boss and ask him to help cooperate with the government. It's best to let him come here."

I didn't say much, waved my hand and said, "Let's go, let's go over there first and discuss it with Secretary Lifeng over there."

When a group of us arrived at the door of the Matun Township Government, we saw at a glance that at least 30 meters of wall on the side of the Matun Township Government had been torn down, a transformer had been smashed, and a dozen stones and firebricks were thrown underneath. On the side, someone apparently took advantage of the chaos caused by knocking down the wall and smashed the transformer next to the wall.

Tan Lifeng did not approach the entrance of the township government, but stood beside the woods a hundred meters outside the door.

The gate of the township government is an iron gate. The gate is tightly closed. A dozen public security policemen are waiting at the gate. There are hundreds of people outside the gate. However, there is no head-on conflict between the two sides. It seems that the people outside the gate are also there. wait for what.

Behind this group of people, there were twenty or thirty people gathered around, arguing in a quarrel. Someone said a few foul words, and there were also two women crying there. But from the looks of it, It's not very sad. It's probably a relative of the deceased's sister.

I chose a high place to observe and judged that the twenty or thirty people who were arguing endlessly should be the Zhang family mentioned in Li Changqing's Yangzhong. One of the few people in the middle must be the husband of the deceased. See They all looked like they had just come off a construction site, and many of them still had traces of cement mortar on their bodies and yellow rubber shoes.
