The extra person was Li Hui.
"Brother, sister-in-law!" Following the affectionate call, Li Hui with her hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a set of home clothes, jumped in front of Chen Weizheng, grabbed Liu Yi's arm and said: "Where did you go? What good food did you bring back? "
"We went to Houhai, food, here!" Here it is. "Liu Yi handed over a bag of seafood.
"Wow! This is too luxurious! "Li Hui exclaimed.
Lü Wei always remembered Ren Sui's words: "As long as my brother is here, you don't have to worry about not having good food." When he heard Li Hui's exaggerated cry, he quickly ran over and stuck his head out to take a look. There really was good food. Shrimp, all twenty centimeters long, weighing three to four pounds. There were also three to four large crabs, each weighing more than a pound. There was also a piece of unknown fish, but looking at the thick flesh, it was very tasty.
"Don't block the door, let me put down the things." When they heard Chen Weizheng's voice, everyone reacted, he was still holding a box of things.
"Wow! An entire box of Maotai! This is too exaggerated! "Lü Wei exclaimed.
"What's so exaggerated about this, a box of twelve bottles, my brother can drink eight bottles by himself." Li Hui said proudly.
"That's not much? My brother can drink a whole row by himself. "Ren Sui said.
"That's enough. Don't spread this rubbish around like it's a great achievement." Liu Yi said, "It's not a big deal."
"Sister-in-law, you're wrong." Ren Sui said to Liu Yi very seriously, "being able to drink is a big advantage, especially in the business world and the officialdom. The five of us male classmates can be considered to be able to drink. Tonight, we are going to have a fight with our brother and let him check our alcohol tolerance."
"If you want to drink then drink, why find an excuse to check our alcohol tolerance." Lü Wei said: "There is a condition. You are not allowed to get drunk, and you are not allowed to vomit. Whoever vomits is not allowed to drink. This Maotai costs 2500 RMB per bottle, and this box is 30,000 RMB. Each sip costs 100 RMB. You guys go and calculate."
"Don't threaten people. We should drink to our heart's content. Today is the New Year, how can we not get a few drunk?" Ren Sui said.
"That's right, that's right. Even if it's two thousand and five hundred, it's still drinking. Alcohol is meant to be drunk. There's only one purpose in drinking it, and it's fine as long as it feels good." Chen Weizheng said.
One of the three boys playing mahjong with Ren Guoan secretly asked, "Uncle, can Brother Weizheng really drink eight bottles of Maotai?"
Ren Guoan said, "That is a legend in our Red River. Wei Zheng defeated all the members of the Standing Committee of Lishui City, leaving only the mayor to clean up the mess. It's a fact that he drank eight bottles of wine at that meal. "
The three boys looked at each other and dispelled the idea of fighting with Chen Weizheng.
Liu Yi changed his clothes and went to help his mother cook. When he went to the kitchen, he found that Qin Juan was really good in the kitchen. Not only was she quick, but her cooking skills were also quite good. Qin Juan was from Xiaoshui City in Nanjiang. She was cooking Double Winter Vegetable, which was also called Double Winter Fried in Oil. This was a dish that required a lot of effort.
"Xiao Hui, why are you back? Didn't you say that you were investigating there? "Chen Weizheng asked.
"I really can't stay there anymore!" Li Hui said, "We are willing to stay there, but the local cadres are not willing. Today is a holiday. The government cafeteria is closed. Master went home. We don't even have a place to eat. The market is closed after the New Year. There are no vegetables to sell. Even the food stalls are not open. If we don't come back, we will starve to death. "
"You are pretty good. You can even buy a ticket!" Chen Weizheng said.
"Not at all!" Li Hui said, "The teacher in charge of our team is really amazing. He chartered a car to Jiuquan and a plane to Nanyuan from Jiuquan. Everyone split the cost."
"All of you are back?" Chen Weizheng felt that this group of people was really strong.
"One didn't come back." Li Hui said, "That guy has no money!"
"No money? How is that possible? Who doesn't have money when they go out? Even if they don't have money, they have cards! "Chen Weizheng said.
"He had money. That guy did well and used all his money to help the poor. He even got praised by the local leader. Yesterday, the bank was closed. The local card machine couldn't withdraw money. The bank never dared to put money in it. In the end, that guy was in trouble! "Li Hui said," He asked the wrong people. No one lent him money. They all said that it was to help the poor. You are already so bare. If I still have money, then the difference is too big. Everyone is unwilling to lend him money to show that they are kind. "
"Hehehehe! If he borrowed money from you, would you lend it? "Chen Weizheng asked.
"I would definitely lend it. But he doesn't know me well, so he didn't borrow from me. " Li Hui said, "I didn't expect that there would be such a person. He helped the poor until he was penniless and didn't even leave money for food. The ancient people said that the bottom of the well was to help the living, and the undressing to help the living. It should be talking about this kind of person. Even if we didn't come back and all of us stayed in the area, he wouldn't have money to eat. He could only eat everyone's food. He used his own money to show off and then turned around to pretend to be poor in front of his classmates. So fake! "
This kind of person was not bad. Saving people from the well and undressing to help the living. It was originally a great virtue in the words of the ancient sages and ancient books. But for a period of time, it was actually called "stupid" by the modern people. Indeed, the standards of the modern people were completely different. If you could save people and live at the same time, achieving the beauty of both, there was nothing wrong with it! If you were really faced with such a dilemma, saving people from the well and undressing to help the living were like a mirror that tested the person involved. It was also this kind of extreme situation where there was no choice that could possibly test true love and selflessness! Otherwise, character, morality, justice, conscience, principles, and faith would all be out of the question.
"I hope the local government will deal with it and lend a helping hand. Otherwise, your classmate will have a tragic ending!" Chen Weizheng said, "He won't even be able to beg for food!"
"Hehe, it's hard to say that good people will have good karma. There will be kind-hearted people who will help him out." Li Hui said.
"Sis, I realized that after your trip to the Northwest, your heart has become resentful." Ren Sui said.
"We've all been educated by facts." Li Hui said, "You guys really don't know how poor the place we went to was. It wasn't just poor, it was poor to the point of being abominable! The proverb says that the poor are extremely vicious. This time, I deeply experienced it. "
"How did they become so poor?" Ren Sui asked.
"It's all because of the poverty alleviation policy!" Li Hui said with a sigh.
"Poverty alleviation policy?" This point of view was quite interesting. A few people who were playing mahjong stopped.
"The county we went to was at the edge of the desert. According to the old people, when the liberation was just started, there were small oases everywhere. Each small oasis had one or two families and raised hundreds of sheep. Every year, they used their wool and sheepskin to exchange for food, salt, and cloth. Although they weren't rich, they could still live. Moreover, they lived a simple and leisurely life. They could even cultivate romantic people like Wang Luobin, who would beg a young girl to hit him with a leather boot. " Li Hui said, "After the liberation, the people's government began to help the poor. The most obvious effect of poverty alleviation was the growth of the population. After sixty years of growth, the local population increased by almost ten times. The oases that used to support two or three families with ten or twenty people now have to support hundreds of people. The water in the oases isn't even enough for people to eat, let alone irrigation. Without agriculture and animal husbandry, everyone's source of income is the government's poverty alleviation. Now, people are aware of it and have accepted their fate. They have composed songs to sing: No food, no clothes, the government will send them to us. No women, no hugs, the government will make them for us. "
"Then can we stop poverty alleviation?" A male classmate asked.
"No, absolutely not." Li Hui said, "We understand that the locals at our age basically won't engage in agricultural production because they have never seen production before. Since they were born, they will only go to the government to receive relief products and receive poverty alleviation funds. It's like feeding pigs in a pen. If they don't feed them, they will only die. "
"Isn't it very effective to adopt the method of immigration to help the poor?" Another male classmate asked.
"Whether it's effective or not, only God knows!" Li Hui said, "I've been to a village before. The locals had all migrated, but they all came back not long after."
"Why?"
"After they used up all the production materials given by the government, even the grain seeds, they didn't know what to do." Li Hui said, "When they found out that they were no longer given free food and that they had to work for it, they were angry. They left the place and returned to their hometown. They knew that when they returned to their hometown, they would return to their old lives."
"Can they return to their old lives?"
"Definitely not." Li Hui said, "Because the poverty alleviation funds in this place have been canceled."
"Then what should we do?"
"They used a method of petitioning, a group petitioning." Li Hui said, "Children who cry get milk. Every time they petitioned, the local leaders would be reprimanded by the higher-ups. After a few times, the local leaders were afraid and moved funds from other places to feed them and treat them. From then on, their lives were better than before. Every day, other than drinking, gambling, or giving birth to children. Anyway, they don't need to raise them themselves. The more children they give birth to, the more children they have. "
"The poor raise spoiled children, the government raises unruly people. It's been like this since ancient times! "Chen Weizheng said," You're going to help these poor people? No wonder your teacher decisively returned. What I oppose the most is poverty alleviation. As the saying goes, save the needy and not the poor. Save the poor and they will be poor forever. "
"Weizheng, don't be too extreme." Ren Guoan said, "The government adopted the poverty alleviation policy because of social reasons. Although there were some mistakes in the poverty alleviation work, overall it was a success. When evaluating this matter, you have to look at the overall situation and the development. You can't just look at the parts. You can't just look at the problem and not look at the overall success. "
"Fellow theoreticians, put down your theories and support your stomachs. It's time to eat!" Qin Juan carried the dishes out from the kitchen.
