Li Rui praised, "A student who graduated from Fudan University is indeed different. You know so much, and you can quote the classics and speak clearly and logically. I really admire you." Ling Shuyao continued, "By extension, a flock of sheep is also divided into three, six, and nine classes. The leader of the flock also has the ability to manage the flock. He will be given a certain amount of authority by the shepherd to help herd the sheep. These are the officials under the prefectural magistrate. Some of the stronger and smarter sheep in the flock can always find the best grass and eat the best food. Therefore, they often eat the fattest. These are actually the rich people in human society. Unfortunately, these sheep don't know that when they become fat, they are often slaughtered for meat. There are also some sheep in the flock who are lazy and incompetent. They only follow behind the large group and eat the grass left by others. There are even some who don't even eat the grass left by others. These sheep are malnourished and as thin as a match, but they are willing to accept the status quo. Do you know what kind of people these sheep represent? "
Li Rui smiled faintly. He thought that this woman was really exceptionally intelligent. She talked about a lot of social knowledge and seemed to be a bit off-topic. But in the end, she cleverly returned to their current situation. Her ability to control her thoughts was really outstanding. He said, "Do you still need to ask? It's a group of people who are lazy and passive like the poor people in Little Dragon King Village." Ling Shuyao looked at him with praise and said, "Smart!" She continued, "Now, you and I are the shepherd. We are facing this kind of lazy sheep. We help them find grass to eat so that they don't starve to death. It is completely natural that they want to repay us. Why do you need to be polite to them? "
Li Rui laughed and said, "You are not only a master storyteller, but also a master of history, humanities, and political science. I admire you." Ling Shuyao rolled her eyes and said, "I am not joking with you. I'm telling you, a pitiful person must have a hateful side. You don't have to pity or sympathize with such people. "Li Rui was stunned." I didn't sympathize with them. " Ling Shuyao said calmly, "Then in the future, if someone comes to your door to wash your clothes and cook for you, you can accept it." Li Rui said, "I'm mainly worried about the negative influence." Ling Shuyao laughed and said, "The public opinion is in our hands, why worry about the influence?"
She had already steamed a pot of rice and stir-fried two dishes. Lunch was ready. When the dishes were served, the two of them sat facing each other and began to eat.
After a few bites, Li Rui received a call from Secretary General Du Minsheng. Du Minsheng conveyed Song Chaoyang's message to him. The Municipal Party Committee had revised the application method for small loans for poverty alleviation in the city. The document had been sent to all counties and districts, and they were urged to implement it as soon as possible. In other words, Hu Liquan and the other poor families would soon be able to solve the problem of their loan application.
After hanging up the phone, Li Rui told Ling Shuyao about the matter. Ling Shuyao said, "Looks like we're going to get busy." Li Rui said, "It won't be too busy. After all, the two of us are only responsible for coordinating. If you haven't recovered from your illness, you can stay at home and rest. I'll run around the village by myself. "Ling Shuyao rebuked," You're the one who hasn't recovered. " Li Rui laughed and said, "I say, Leader, I'm wholeheartedly thinking about you. Why are you blaming me?" Ling Shuyao scoffed, "There's no need for that. You should think about yourself. Don't think about me."
The colder and more unfeeling she was, the more Li Rui wanted to conquer her. He swore to himself that one day, he would make her submit to him. He would make her pay for her coldness toward him a thousand times over!
After dinner, Li Rui called Liu Zhijun, the director of Hanshui County's Poverty Alleviation Office. He asked him about the implementation of the new application method for small loans.
The news from Liu Zhijun was not optimistic. He said that although the county wanted to comply with the city's intentions and implement the new policy as soon as possible, the new policy itself was difficult to implement. It was not something that could be implemented in a day or two. For example, the new application method for small loans for poverty alleviation required the county's Poverty Alleviation Office to deposit a portion of the poverty alleviation funds allocated by the provincial government and a portion of the poverty alleviation funds allocated by the village's township government into the bank as a guarantee. On the surface, it sounded simple, but it was difficult to implement. The county's Poverty Alleviation Office did hold a certain amount of poverty alleviation funds, but this poverty alleviation fund was not used as a guarantee. If they wanted to use it, they had to inform the provincial government. If they did not inform the provincial government, they would be misappropriating the poverty alleviation funds privately, which was a violation of the law. Even if they informed the provincial government, they still had to get the county magistrate's signature and apply to the county's finance bureau. The county's finance bureau would definitely not be willing to release the funds and would have to delay for a while. As for the village's township government, specifically in Little Dragon King Village, it was the Dragon King Temple Township government. They did not have the funds at all. If they wanted to allocate the funds, they would have to transfer it from other funds. However, the township's finances were already stretched, so how could they find the funds so easily?
When Li Rui heard this, he was immediately stunned. After a while, he asked, "How long will it take to implement this?" Liu Zhijun said, "Optimistically, it will take at least two weeks. One week to inform the provincial government, and the other week to dawdle with the county's finance bureau. This is only to solve the problem of our county's Poverty Alleviation Office. Whether or not the village will be able to fork out the money is another matter. If the village doesn't fork out the money and doesn't cooperate, then the amount of money that the poor families can get will be greatly reduced. " Li Rui frowned. After thinking for a while, he said, "Isn't there another new method? Can we get a loan through a guarantor? This should be the fastest way to implement it, right? " Liu Zhijun said, "This shouldn't be a problem. However, Little Dragon King Village is full of poor families. Who can be the guarantor?"
After hanging up the phone, Li Ruixin's mood was very heavy. He sat on the chair in a daze without saying a word. Ling Shuyao found it strange and asked a few questions. Li Rui explained the situation to her. She also frowned and said, "If this loan problem can't be solved, can we still go back to the city?" Li Rui smiled bitterly and said, "You ask me? Who should I ask?"
After a while, Li Rui suddenly stood up and said fiercely, "If it really doesn't work, I'll be the guarantor for Hu Liquan and help them get the loan."
Li Rui knew Hu Liquan's background. Ever since Hu Liquan obtained the golden dragon from the ancient tomb, he had become a hidden millionaire. His scorpion breeding business was just a cover. Even if he lost money, he would definitely be able to pay it back. That was why he dared to say that he would be the guarantor for Hu Liquan. As for why he was willing to be the guarantor for the other young men, he felt that their businesses wouldn't lose money. Even if they lost money, with his current financial ability, he would be able to pay it back for them. Anyway, his money came easily and he didn't feel bad about spending it.
Ling Shuyao didn't know these inside stories. She was very surprised when she heard him. She stared at him for a while and said, "You have to think about it carefully. Your rank is about the same as mine. Your monthly salary is only about two thousand yuan. If you suddenly become the guarantor for nine families, if they lose money, the bank won't look for them, but you. Do you think you'll be able to pay it back? Even if you can pay it back, won't you be able to live? " Li Rui laughed and said, "I'm going to use your words here. Just think for yourself, don't think for me." Ling Shuyao stared at him and said, "Are you stupid? This isn't a joke. This is serious. There's money involved! "
Li Rui stopped smiling and said solemnly, "Do you think I want to be like this? Haven't I been forced into a corner? The Song Shuji sent us here to work on the poverty alleviation pilot project. It's been almost half a month and we haven't made any progress. I'm anxious for you, but the Song Shuji is even more anxious. We can't delay any longer. We have to make some progress immediately. Therefore, it's okay for me to contribute a little. Besides, the businesses that Hu Liquan and the others are involved in aren't complicated. There's not much technical content. As long as we start, it'll be very difficult to lose money. That's why I dare to say this. " Ling Shuyao's cold gaze swept across his face and said, "Let me remind you. Don't just focus on the results in front of you. You have to consider everything. This is a poverty alleviation pilot project. Our poverty alleviation experience will be spread throughout the city in the future. Do you think other poverty alleviation cadres have the courage to be a guarantor for the poor like you? "
Li Rui said righteously, "As a party member and a leader, you have to always remember the three representatives in your heart. You also have to have the courage, the spirit of sacrifice, and be willing to …" Ling Shuyao couldn't help but laugh. She glanced at him and waved her hand, saying, "Alright, alright, alright. Don't talk to me about the principles. I know more than you. Hmph, anyway, I'm afraid that you'll make a fuss and end up in a difficult situation. "Li Rui laughed and said," Then will you still help me? " Ling Shuyao said, "Don't try to trick me. I won't be a guarantor for anyone. I don't have that much money to spare."
The two of them were talking and laughing when Li Rui received a call from County Magistrate Chen. County Magistrate Chen called him from the site of the ancient tomb excavation. He told him that the excavation of the ancient tomb was about to begin. The film crew of the city's television station was also preparing for a live broadcast. County Magistrate Chen asked him if he wanted to come over and see something new. Li Rui had nothing to do, so he agreed and asked Ling Shuyao if she wanted to go. Ling Shuyao had nothing to do, so she naturally didn't refuse.
The two of them left the house and drove to Xiaoling Hill in the west of the village. They got out of the car and climbed up the hill. When they reached the hillside where the ancient tomb was located, the excavation had already begun. The film crew of the city's television station had just finished their introduction of the location and walked into the tomb with the archaeologists.
At this point, the ordinary people standing outside the cordon couldn't see anything. If they wanted to see, they could only go into the tomb. However, the police on guard wouldn't allow them to go in. Thus, they could only look at the dark entrance of the tomb and let their imaginations run wild.
