"Zheng Zhong! Why did you stop me from speaking just now?" Zheng Zhishu looked at Wu Jin'an and the village chief who were walking the day before yesterday, and thought of Zheng Zhong's actions just now, and asked Zheng Zhong in a low voice.

Zheng Zhong is Zheng Zhishu's nephew, so he naturally knows Zheng Zhishu's character very well. He heard Zheng Zhishu's question, thought of the key point, and replied to Zheng Zhishu in a low voice: "Uncle! If I didn't pull you just now, You almost screwed Village Chief Wu."

Zheng Zhishu is a very honest person. He heard Zheng Zhong's answer, thought of the price quoted by Wu Jinan, and asked a little puzzled: "Zheng Zhong! Wu Jingrong told me clearly in the morning that the price of the water pump is 880 yuan. Now Jin An says it will cost [-], isn't there any problem with it?"

"Uncle! Uncle! Why are you so pedantic? Eight hundred and eighty is the price that Jing Rong sold to our village based on his own favor. Otherwise, can we buy such an advanced water pump at this price? If the village head also Ask Jingrong to help buy a few water pumps at the price of our village, do you want Jingrong to help or not?" Zheng Zhong heard Zheng Zhishu's question, saw Zheng Zhishu's puzzled expression, and reluctantly moved Tell the other party why.

Zheng Zhishu heard the situation introduced by Zheng Zhong, and then he understood the key point. Thinking of his previous behavior, Zheng Zhishu secretly squeezed a cold sweat in his heart, and said with some gratitude: "Zheng Zhong! Fortunately, the key It's time for you to stop Uncle, otherwise I'm afraid I'll screw Wu Jingrong."

"Jing Rong! Are you there?" A group of people soon arrived at the door of Wu Jingrong's house. Wu Jin'an heard the sound of the TV from the yard, pushed open the door subconsciously, and shouted as he walked in.

Wu Jingrong, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, heard Wu Jinan's shout, subconsciously put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, picked up a towel and wiped his hands, before he even walked out of the kitchen, he asked curiously: "Uncle three! came back?"

Hearing Wu Jingrong's inquiry, Wu Jin'an quickly and enthusiastically introduced: "Jing Rong! Let me introduce you. This is the head of our village, Liu from Manchun Township. He heard about the installation of water pumps in our village, so he came here to see it. Look."

Wu Jingrong had already known the news of the township head's visit to the village in advance, but now he pretended to be surprised when he heard Wu Jinan's introduction, and hurriedly greeted Liu township head enthusiastically: "Liu township head! Welcome to your house as a guest, Come inside, please."

After Wu Jingrong invited everyone into the main room, he immediately told his daughter who was watching TV: "Niu Niu! There are guests at home, you should turn off the TV first, go out with Yaya and the others for a while, and come back to watch TV later. .”

Wu Jingrong watched his daughter lead a group of little girls to run out of the yard, and greeted everyone with a smile: "Major Liu! Officer Song! Party Secretary Zheng! Everyone please sit down."

"Comrade Jing Rong! I, Comrade Jin An, said that you entrusted your friend to buy the water pump from Pengcheng. Is this true?" After everyone was seated, Township Chief Liu thought of him. For the purpose of this trip, I asked Wu Jingrong straight to the point.

Wu Jingrong nodded subconsciously when he heard Mr. Liu's question, and replied: "Mr. Liu! You should know that our Manchun Township has no running water so far. My friend saw that it was inconvenient to fetch water from the well every day." , brought me a small water pump from Pengcheng."

"Due to the shortage of irrigation water a few days ago, Xitai Village cut off our village's irrigation water because the source belongs to their mountainous land. For this matter, everyone almost fought with the people of Xitai Village. When I learned about this incident, I thought of the water pump at home, so I sent a telegram to my friend and asked him if he had a water pump with high power."

"I didn't expect there to be one in Pengcheng, so I asked my friend to send one back for me. Now that I have this water pump, the farmland in our village no longer has to worry about irrigation water. Our villagers will no longer have to look at the faces of people in Xitai Village."

Hearing the situation introduced by Wu Jingrong, the head of Liu Township, thinking of the current situation in Manchun Township, said to Wu Jingrong: "Comrade Jingrong! As a Manchun villager, I believe you should also know that in our Manchun Township, There are many villages facing similar problems to your Guohewan village, if these villages can get this kind of water pump, the problem of water shortage in each village can be solved easily.”

"I heard from Comrade Jin'an that this kind of water pump costs 380 yuan. It stands to reason that such an advanced water pump is sold at this price. However, other villages in our township are not as rich as your Guohewan village. I don’t know if you can ask your friend for me, can you give me a discount on the price?”

The moment Wu Jingrong saw Mayor Liu, he already guessed the purpose of Mayor Liu's visit, and when he heard Mayor Liu's question, he pretended to be embarrassed, and said to Mayor Liu: "Major Liu! Leaving aside the price of the water pump, it would be embarrassing to ask my friend to bring back a few more water pumps."

Because supplies are very tight at this time, Township Chief Liu has no doubts about Wu Jingrong's answer. Thinking of the villages in the mountainous areas facing the situation of farmland water shortage, Township Chief Liu asked Wu Jingrong sincerely: "Jingrong Comrade Rong! I also know that this matter is a bit embarrassing for you, but for the sake of everyone in the village, please help everyone!"

Don't talk about buying a few water pumps, even if he buys thousands of them, Wu Jingrong can easily handle them. However, in this era, supplies are extremely tight. If he buys hundreds of water pumps in one go, he might get angry. Wu Jingrong could only reply embarrassingly to Mayor Liu's request: "Major Liu! I can only try your request, but I can't give you any guarantee."

Seeing Wu Jingrong nodding his head in agreement, Liu Xiangchang immediately had a happy smile on his face. He didn't dare to think about the actual situation in each village, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "Comrade Jingrong! You can help us understand the water pump. It’s already a great help for the folks who have moved, and I shouldn’t push further, but the villages in our township are too poor. Can you ask your friends to see if the money for the water pump can be cheaper? .”

If it were someone else, Wu Jingrong would definitely turn his face and deny anyone if he made such an advance. Considering that the original intention of the township chief Liu was also for the people in the township, Wu Jingrong pondered for a while before answering: "Major Liu! It's something I can only try."

Wu Jingrong's words got to the point, he paused for a while, and then said: "Major Liu! I also know that those villages are very poor, so I have a workaround here. With the support of my friends, I opened a shop in the county seat , to buy our local agricultural products, and if those villagers have no money, we can let them exchange agricultural products.”
