Chapter 276 This guy has a future
The county government is very proactive. After the meeting, it issued orders and all factories and communes responded actively. When it comes to flood control and disaster relief, everyone is united. Time is life. Every extra day it takes to transport supplies can save one more life.
Shen Meng was not idle either. After returning home at night, she took inventory of her supplies in the space. Except for the things she bought with her own money, which could not be touched, the chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, sheep, fruits and grains she raised could be taken out for disaster relief. After all, these things were almost out of stock in the space.
It is easy to take it out, but difficult to say it. She hesitated in the space for a long time and couldn't think of any excuse. She washed up in the space, and when she came out, she turned her head and saw a hairband hanging on the wall. Her eyes lit up and she immediately had an idea.
The next morning I went straight to the county government.
When she arrived, Li Chuan was in a meeting. Secretary Guan saw her coming and brought her a cup of hot water.
"Why are you here so early? The secretary is in a meeting. The conference room is full of people. It probably won't be over in a while. You have a lot to wait for!"
"What I'm talking about is a big deal. It's very important. Old John's daughter, Jesse, do you remember? The foreign man next to her at the time, named Mark, was her fiancé. He was a farmer, or a landlord in our language. He talked to me before and wanted to export grain to our side. I didn't understand at the time and didn't respond. After returning to the bus company yesterday, I called the number Jesse gave me. I found out that Mark's men smuggled the grain here and were afraid of being discovered. Now the grain is piled up near our provincial capital. Mark's men have already run away. He thought that since the grain was useless and no one knew about it, he just left it there. He boarded the plane with Jesse this morning and left. I thought that since the grain was there, we should not waste it. Otherwise, it would be a waste to leave it there."
"What, food? There is really food. Is what you said true?"
Shen Meng trembled and said, "What are you shouting about? How should I know? This is what Jesse complained to me about. He said that Mark said this when he was drunk. I don't know if it's true. Keep your voice down. Otherwise, why don't we go take a look first? If there is something wrong, we can report it to Secretary Li, okay? Otherwise, we will be happy for nothing."
Secretary Guan bit his finger in panic, walked around twice before saying to Shen Meng, "Okay, I'll ask for leave and apply for a car, and then we'll go take a look."
Shen Meng hesitated for a moment, his face full of regret, which made Secretary Guan feel something was wrong.
"What's the matter? If there really is food, it will solve a big problem! Comrade Shen, why are you still frowning? If you don't want to go, give me the address and I will go check it out myself."
"Secretary Guan, it's not that I don't want to go. You have to know that Mark originally wanted to export his farm's grain to our country. His people quietly brought in so much grain. If they were discovered, would he not be able to cooperate with our country in the future? When Jesse told me about it, she kept begging me to keep it a secret, but I know that she also wanted to use me to help her fiancé solve this problem. The main thing is that this batch of grain has not been declared, and the customs has no approval. This is a big deal, and we two small shrimps can't make the decision."
"It's already this late, why are you still worrying about that? Let's go find some food first, and we can worry about the rest later. Nothing is more important than human life. If we save someone, everything else will be minor."
"it is good."
Shen Meng looked at Secretary Guan and felt that this guy had a bright future. Anyone who could be the secretary of a high-ranking county official would hold a high position in the future. She had wanted to have a good relationship with Secretary Guan before, but after she came back, this guy had been busy with Secretary Li in the provincial capital and she had no time to make friends with him. Now she had the time to build a good relationship with him.
After Secretary Guan asked for leave, he took Shen Meng directly to a jeep in the compound. It was not until the car drove onto the main road that Secretary Guan had time to ask questions.
"Comrade Shen, you kept saying that the amount of grain was huge. How huge is it?"
"Jesse said it was five, five hundred tons or something, I can't remember. I was wondering how they could get so much food without making any noise. It's really unexpected." "Haha, why can't we expect this? Why are those black market dealers so persistent despite repeated bans? You have a plan, I have a ladder, they have their own ways, but it's really unbelievable that they really threw away so much food like this."
Shen Meng didn't say anything after hearing this. Didn't she dare to really pull up their banner only after she called Jesse early in the morning and knew that they had already boarded the plane? As long as they were still in the country, she would have to pay special attention to them.
After driving for two hours, we finally arrived at our destination.
There is no one in this mountain village anymore. Shen Meng mentioned it by accident when she called Lu Zhenping after he came back from his mission, mainly to praise the effect of the chili powder she brought.
"Such a big village, and there's not a single person?"
"Never mind that for now. Jesse only told me it's here, but he didn't say anything specific. Let's look for it separately."
"No, what if something goes wrong? How can I explain it to the secretary?"
Shen Meng frowned and looked at him, saying very disapprovingly: "Comrade Guan, time is life, don't waste time, the important thing is to find food quickly."
After she finished speaking, she ran inside and opened the doors one by one. When Secretary Guan saw her like this, he also ran in quickly. However, before he got there, he heard his relative's scream.
"Oh my God, there really is food. Secretary Guan, come here quickly."
Secretary Guan ran over to take a look, and sure enough there was food. Not only was there food, but there was a lot of it. She was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. Not only was there food, but there were also fruits, both those she had seen before and those she hadn't seen before. There were baskets after baskets, sacks after sacks, so much that she was dazzled.
Not only was one household packed full, but several houses behind were also packed full and could not be locked.
"This is a food disaster!"
"Secretary Guan, now is not the time to talk about this. Hurry up and call Secretary Li and ask him to send a car over to pick it up. Do it quietly in batches. If we make a big fuss, it will be difficult to end it."
"Yes, yes, you are right. I will make the call right away."
The two people acted separately. Secretary Guan asked Shen Meng to hide in a secluded place while he drove to make a phone call and would come to pick her up later. Shen Meng found a low place to lie down, so if you didn't pay attention you wouldn't be able to see anyone.
Secretary Guan was relieved to see that she was hiding obediently, and drove away quickly.
