Chapter 353 Director Song solves the problem

Zhao Shuzhuo smiled and replied sincerely:

"Director Song, please don't say that. All of this is because of Comrade Jianguo's arrival."

"You don't know, since Comrade Jianguo came to our village, it has really brought about earth-shaking changes."

"He is like a gust of spring wind blowing into our somewhat dull little village."

"He has made tremendous efforts in both the construction of the village and the improvement of villagers' lives."

"Without his unremitting support, how could our village be valued by the city? Most of the credit should be attributed to Comrade Jianguo."

Director Song listened, smiled and waved his hands, and said with a look of satisfaction:

"Don't be so modest, both of you. You have all made contributions. You are both knowledgeable and capable young people in our Jianye Farm."

"By the way, I already know about Zhao Xiande's case. This matter caused quite a stir in our village."

"The city has issued an order for us to elect a village chief as soon as possible. This village chief is related to the future development direction of our village."

"Tell me, who do you think is the most suitable for the position of village chief?"

When Zhao Shuzhuo heard this, he straightened up and said without hesitation:

"Director, I think Comrade Jianguo is very suitable. Look, Comrade Jianguo has done so many practical things since he came to our village!"

"From the construction planning of the farm to the various matters of the supply and marketing cooperative, which one was not personally handled by him, running around?"

"He is not only capable, but also cares about us villagers and always considers everyone in everything he does."

"If we let him be the village chief, he will definitely lead our village to prosperity. Otherwise, let's let Comrade Ding Jianguo be the chief."

Wang Jianguo listened to this and waved his hands, refusing with a serious face:

"That won't do, Director Song, Brother Zhao. I don't like being a leader, and I don't want to be the village chief."

"First of all, I'm not originally from Jianye Village. I just came here by chance, and I haven't been here for long."

"The village chief has to manage all the affairs of the village. He must know the situation in the village very well and have a deep emotional foundation with the villagers."

"I feel that I am far from adequate in this regard. Another thing is that we cannot be so hasty in selecting a village chief. We must fully consider the opinions of the villagers."

"In my opinion, Brother Zhao, you have high prestige in the village, you are warm-hearted, and you are very familiar with the situation in the village. You are much more suitable to be the village chief than me."

Wang Jianguo spoke sincerely and his eyes revealed his serious attitude towards the matter.

Song Guohua frowned, shook his head gently, and said solemnly:

"The ability of this young man Shuzhuo is obvious to all. I am very clear about this."

"Over the years, he has served as the team leader of the production team and has managed the team's affairs in an orderly manner. Everyone has seen it."

"However, since he already shoulders the important task of being the team leader, I don't think it's appropriate for him to be the village chief."

"After all, the village chief has to deal with many complicated matters. When combined with the work of the production team, the workload is extremely heavy. I'm really worried that he will be too busy to handle it."

As Song Guohua spoke, he looked at Zhao Shuzhuo worriedly, his eyes full of concern for him.

Song Guohua paused for a moment and then continued:

"How about this? I think we can hold a village meeting and elect the village chief by secret ballot. What do you think?"

"This method is fair and just and can fully reflect the wishes of the villagers. However, we have to pay attention to one issue."

"In order to prevent other villagers from colluding with each other and affecting the fairness of the vote, we should keep this matter a secret for the time being."

"We will notify everyone when it's time to vote. This way, the fairness of the election can be guaranteed to the greatest extent."

Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo listened to Song Guohua's proposal and both thought it was a good idea. Wang Jianguo nodded slightly, his eyes showing approval, and said:

"Director Song, your idea is good. This will allow the villagers to express their ideas freely and elect a suitable village chief, while also avoiding some unnecessary troubles."

Zhao Shuzhuo also nodded repeatedly and echoed:

"Yes, Director, I think this method is fair. Let's do as you say."

Song Guohua saw that both of them agreed and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he looked at Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo and asked:

"By the way, you two came to the commune today specifically. Do you have anything else to discuss with me?"

Zhao Shuzhuo suddenly slapped his forehead, a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on his face, and he said:

"Hey, Director Song, if you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten what we were doing. We came here this time because we really have something else to ask you."

"As you know, the supply and marketing cooperative is about to open. This is a great event for our village."

"But there is a problem that needs to be solved, which is the issue of food for the employees of the supply and marketing cooperative."

"We thought, to make it convenient for everyone and save time, we wanted to build a canteen in the backyard of the supply and marketing cooperative."

"In this way, everyone doesn't have to run back and forth every day to cook and eat, and can focus more on the operation of the supply and marketing cooperative."

Zhao Shuzhuo paused, then continued:

"We had a good idea, but Master Yu, who came to build the house today, discovered a big problem."

"He said the ground behind the supply and marketing cooperative is too low. If it rains, the water can't be drained away and will accumulate here."

"You know, if we build this canteen, the base of the wall will be soaked in water for a long time and will definitely be damaged."

"If this house breaks down, it will be troublesome. Not only will it waste our manpower and material resources, but it will also affect the employees' meals."

Zhao Shuzhuo frowned and continued:

"So, we discussed it and decided that building a brick house would be more reliable."

"Look, except for the commune, the supply and marketing cooperative and the clinic, which are all brick buildings, all other houses in our village are made of mud."

"Brick houses are solid. Even if there is water in the backyard, it won't be damaged easily."

"But, we have never built a brick house before, and we don't know what the requirements are, so I came to ask you."

"What procedures are needed to build a brick house? We should hurry up and do it. We can't let this delay the construction of the canteen."

Song Guohua listened carefully to Zhao Shuzhuo's words, and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"As for building a brick house, there is no requirement to use any receipts or anything like that. However, there are procedures required to buy bricks, and I can provide you with these procedures."

"You guys wait for me a moment."
