Chapter 17 The Commune Comes to Investigate the Grain Collection

When Chen Xia returned to Qingfeng with a humming little song, Chen Zheng, who was working in the commune police station, ran over.

"Xiao Xia, someone has reported that you collected grain in the village a few days ago. The commune and the grain station will send people to investigate tomorrow."

Seeing Chen Zheng's anxious look, Chen Xia was also a little confused, but the most important thing now is to figure out the matter, "Brother Zheng, how did you know? Who reported it?"

"I don't know who reported it, but tomorrow our police station will also send someone to participate in the investigation team. I heard it next to you in the afternoon. I'll come back and tell you in a hurry. You should think of a solution earlier. I think it must be the people from the grain station behind it."

In fact, it was indeed the people from the grain station who were doing the trouble. Chen Xia collected grain in the village and collected it once or twice, and this matter could not be kept secret no matter what.

Just because some people in the countryside have big mouths, they sell their own food for 2 cents, so why don’t they show off to others?

In fact, when the villagers heard this, they were even more dissatisfied with the purchase price of the grain station. The people of Yuezhou have been famous for their masters since ancient times, and there are too many smart people.

So the people are going to wait a little longer to see if the purchase price will increase later, or whether it can be sold to the legendary "grain merchants".

This wait made the people at the grain station very anxious. The stationmaster Yang Qi saw that he received less and less food every day. If the grain collection task this year is not completed, would he be dismissed?

So I went to inquire why the farmers didn’t sell grain, and then I learned that someone in Qingfeng Village collected grain.

He didn't know how much grain Chen Xia collected in Qingfeng Village, but he only knew that it was 2 cents more expensive than the purchase price of the grain station. This kind of thing was absolutely not allowed. It was a matter of resolutely cracking down on speculative behavior, and it was a matter of digging out the corners of Du Huiism.

The grain stations are definitely strong institutions these days. Yang Qi went to the commune to report this situation. Si Xinliang, director of the commune Revolutionary Committee, was very cold to this, while Ge Jun, deputy director, expressed his willingness to insist on cracking down on the unorganized and undisciplined behavior in Qingfeng Village.

After Chen Zheng left, Chen Xia sat at home for a long time and finally thought of a sentence: "Be honest and lenient, sit down in prison."

He could not admit this matter no matter what. Fortunately, the commune did not catch the adulterer in bed, so Chen Xia had room for operation.

Chen Xia went to find the fourth grandfather first, and after saying the matter, Chen Yigen became angry, "Mom, what kind of unethical thing in the village will inform you? If it is the Chen family, he must be beaten to death."

"Fourth Grandpa, please calm down. I don't think this is a big problem. If the commune comes to investigate, there must be evidence. If there is no evidence, they cannot incite people to arbitrarily. Now the most important thing is to give good confessions to several grain sellers. Never admit it. Not only will I go to jail, but they sell grains also have to go to labor reform, and they also have to confiscate the money and be fined."

Chen Yigen also knew the seriousness of the matter when he was frightened by Chen Xia. Fortunately, the people selling grain in the village were all children of the Chen family. Chen Yigen took Chen Xia to knock on the door at night, scaring them one by one, and making them shut up.

In the countryside, if you have cheap food, you can get on it and run away without danger. Now, when you hear that the grain sellers have to work hard and confiscate the money for the grain sellers, they beat their chests and stamped their feet, pointing to the sky and the earth, and scolding the whistleblower, calling the informant a son without an asshole.

In this way, the offensive and defensive alliance was established.

The second step is to cover up the truth about collecting grain. This is easy to deal with. Chen Yigen asked a few children of the same clan to borrow a lot of rice and moved it to the Chen family's woodshed, which was built in half a room. These are props for the investigation team.

At that time, I will definitely ask where the rice I bought went? Take them to see the rice in this house. As long as it is not sold, it is not a speculative one, right?

As for rice that only has about 2,000 kilograms of rice here, isn’t it a purchase of tens of thousands of kilograms, are these important? Your investigation team said that tens of thousands of kilograms are tens of thousands of kilograms? Do you have an account book?

Help, the legal society needs to tell evidence.

Everything was ready, and Chen Yigen and Chen Xia were waiting for the investigation team to come.

The next morning, the commune investigation team arrived.

The leaders were Ge Jun, deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee, Yang Qi, a grain station member, as well as some commune clerks and two police officers from the police station. When several bicycles arrived in the village, many villagers ran out to watch the fun.

Ge Jun and Yang Qi are brother-in-law. In fashionable words, they are both "conservatives". Their thoughts are not only conservative, but also stubborn. This time, there was a major speculative incident in Qingfeng Village, and they were the most excited.

The two people who came from a special era knew in their hearts that how could a jar of stagnant water show their abilities? The bigger the matter, the greater the contribution they will make in the future.

Chen Yigen and a group of village cadres were waiting early, "Oh, Director Ge, Stationmaster Yang, what wind blows you?"

Ge Jun shook hands with Chen Yigen and said, "We have received reports from the public that there is a big speculator in your village. Today we are here to investigate. If this is true, we must deal with it strictly and seriously."

When Chen Yigen heard this, he frowned, "Who is this kind of thing? As the village party secretary and team leader, I don't know. I must deal with it and I must deal with it seriously."

The village cadres behind them also pretended to nod and agreed, and their acting skills were all online.

"Who is it? Humph, it's a man named Chen Xia in your village."

Yang Qi said beside him, ignorantly.

"Chen Xia?"

Chen Yigen opened his mouth wide and said, "No, Chen Xia is a scholar, how could he be a speculator?"

Ge Jun frowned and felt something was wrong. How could a high school student become a grain merchant? Could it be that Yang Qi made a mistake?

Yang Qi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but now he couldn't care about so much. "Is it Chen Xia? I'll know if he just called him and asked."

Chen Yigen turned around and said to Chen Guoqing, "Guoqing, call Chen Xia and say that the commune leaders have something to ask."

Chen Xia came very quickly, wearing a white shirt and looking gentle, and greeted her one by one when she entered the door. Just looking at this, she was a pure and promising young man.

Several people from the investigation team sat in the village conference room and asked Chen Xia to sit on a small bench opposite. This was the usual trick of the investigation team, which gave the person under investigation a psychological pressure.

"Are you Chen Xia?" Ge Jun asked seriously, holding a pen and a notebook: "We are from Xipu Commune. Do you know what crime you have committed? Let's be honest and strive to be lenient."

Chen Xia blinked and asked, "Leader, I have not committed a crime, why should I explain it?"

With a loud bang, it was Yang Qi who slapped the table: "Fuck, you don't know what you did? If you don't explain, I'll let you go to labor reform."

Chen Xia became angry when she heard this, "What have I done? As the leaders of the commune, you can't just accuse a good person, right? If you have evidence, take me away. If there is no evidence, don't talk nonsense. Be careful that I will sue you for slander."

"What is slander?" Ge Jun quietly asked a policeman next to him.

Yang Qi's face turned red with anger and said sternly: "Don't think that no one knows whether you collect and sell food or engage in speculation and disposal. I tell you, you are digging for Du Huizhi's corner, it is a crime, and you are going to jail. You are very brave at a young age."

"This leader, you said I was collecting grain and selling grain, and speculating and dumping? Then I want to ask, do you have any evidence? Is there any physical evidence? When, when, where, where, and where, and who did I buy grain from? Where did I sell it again?"

"You... are you preparing to resist the organization and cut off your own power from the people?"

Yang Qi was speechless for a moment, yes, he had no evidence, he just heard from others, and he was also the one who reported it, but he had no evidence.

Ge Jun stopped Yang Qi who was about to explode and looked at Chen Xia who was also about to explode and said:

"Of course there is evidence when we come down. It is useless for you to resist stubbornly now. When you cry, Secretary Chen, next we will ask the villagers if you are asking me?"

Chen Yigen sat next to him and said seriously: "Leaders can do whatever they want. I'll arrange it."

At this time, Yang Qi whispered to Ge Jun: "They are all from the same village, I'm afraid that Chen Yigen is not honest. Otherwise, there will be a large group of onlookers at the door, and we will randomly draw 10 villagers to ask."

Ge Jun thought this method was good and did not give Qingfeng Village a chance to shelter, so he went to the door of the conference room himself, randomly selected 10 villagers, and called them in to ask questions one by one.

The first one to come in was Grandma San, who counted her eggs the most sold.

Ge Jun asked with a smile: "Old man, we are commune cadres. I miss you. How many days ago is Chen Xia from your village collecting food?"

"What? You asked me if I had breakfast?"

"I'll ask you, how many days before Chen Xia has collected food in the village!"

"Oh, I've been feeding chickens these days. Isn't it illegal for me to raise a few chickens?"

Ge Jun waved his hand speechlessly and took the "deaf" old lady down. The old lady walked out of the door, spitted a sputum in the back, and cursed: "A bunch of big pants, the little dolls won't let go."

Everyone onlookers showed knowing smiles.

Then the second person called in was the first Guolin Sao who sold grain. When Ge Jun asked whether Chen Xia had purchased grain, Guolin Sao called out:

"Ah, leader, you are blinded by villains. Chen Xia is so honest, how could he do such a thing?"

"But we received a report that he had purchased a lot of food, which exceeded his food."

"The person who reported it had a brain problem. Chen Xia purchased some grain a few days ago, and it was all eaten by their family. His parents were dead, and he couldn't farm. He had two younger brothers and sisters at home, so he could only collect some grain and eat it himself. This is not illegal, right?"

When Ge Jun heard this, his eyes lit up, and someone finally admitted that Chen Xia was collecting food.
