Liu Zhizhong could only curiously ask, "How did he act bravely?"
Hamuer said, "Two years ago, Secretary Mo's wife was playing by the Cangjiang River and fell into the water. She couldn't swim, and these two saved her. They dropped out of school, didn't want to continue their studies, took the 200,000 reward for their bravery, and spent it online on gas and skins. In less than a year, it was all gone. They've been educated afterward, but it didn't help. They're just internet-addicted teenagers! Later, they barely maintained a bottom line, only stealing a hundred or two hundred, not much. Considering their cousin is the Director of the Street Office, and they have connections in the bureau, plus the affair with Secretary Mo's wife, everyone just turned a blind eye."
Liu Zhizhong then understood. Mo Dayou is the Emperor of Shanan; it's easy for him to let these two go.
However, Liu Zhizhong said, "Why doesn't Secretary Mo give them so kind of bonus?"
"Secretary Mo said that if he gave them a bonus to show gratitude, they'd just squander it again. Is it worth it? As for their fathers, both lost their wives early on and have been street ruffians, so they were arranged to guard the back gate of the Public Security Bureau, working in shifts, living out their days. People from Minority backgrounds, changing their lazy mindset is hard. These two don't steal much, so everyone just leaves them alone."
Liu Zhizhong felt overwheld just listening!
This place's backwardness doesn't co without reason!
The issue of mindset is the key issue here!
In the next four days, Liu Zhizhong really took Hamuer with him, descended to the grassroots, and began an investigation starting with the outlying townships of the County Town, understanding the status of grassroots Party and governnt, understanding the livelihood and public sentint in the countryside.
The roads were sowhat difficult to traverse, but the powerful off-road capability of the Maybach made Hamuer admire it greatly.
No matter how bad the road, the Maybach was like walking on flat ground, extrely comfortable.
This vehicle was originally an extended camper, with ample supplies, making resupplying in the countryside convenient, often acquiring exquisite ingredients and even occasionally catching so delicious fish by the river at night.
In short, with the Super Maybach, camping overnight anywhere was also very convenient. Hamuer was amazed and enjoyed this rural journey, fully cooperating with Liu Zhizhong's activities.
Having stayed in the County Town for years, trips to the countryside had beco rare. This ti, Hamuer felt quite comfortable with the journey.
Liu Zhizhong was also gaining new insights. Hamuer, this guy, is actually good at cooking and tea-making, exceptional even. He managed the logistics very well, too, haha…
However, what Liu Zhizhong saw at the grassroots level was really disappointing. Penetrating into the villages to understand the living and production conditions of the Minority people, he beca all the more extrely disappointed and angry.
The Minority Autonomous County was already chaotic, slack, and slow. The County Committee and County Governnt in the County Town, along with various bureaus and institutional units, were in a muddle-through state.
And the townships under the autonomous county had carried this muddle-through lifestyle to a higher Realm. At the township level, oh my God, many people were on the payroll without being on the job, and those present were not attending to affairs, with nepotism rampant.
In so townships, the top Party and governnt officials, except when they had etings and returned to the township, were either in the County Town or in the Prefecture, living in luxury and spending money.
In so townships, from Monday to Friday, only a few stayed on duty, while the rest went off to have fun on their own. So stayed in the County Town, others went to the Prefecture, even to the Provincial City. Those unwilling to travel would spend every day playing cards in township tea houses, eating and drinking in restaurants, staying in foot massage and spa venues…
