Chapter 1 Chang'an
"Although our Wuming City is not as busy as the bustling cities, it can be considered as beautiful as the mountains and rivers and the air is fresh. Xiao Shen, please work here with peace of mind. If you have any work difficulties and requirements, you can just mention it to us." Du Zhonghai took a sip of tea and smiled with a gentle face.
Chen Chang'an's eyes fell on the stainless steel thermos cup on Director Du's hand. I don't know how long this thermos cup has been used. The luster of the cup surface looks a bit dull, and there is a layer of brown tea stains on the mouth of the bottle.
It wasn't that the teacup was too attractive that he was staring at it, but he was afraid that he would see Director Du's shiny head with a shiny tiles on his head on the first day of work. He didn't want the leader to think that he liked to look at other people's shortcomings on his first day: "Thank you, Director."
Du Zhonghai nodded with a smile. The young man sitting in front of him looked handsome, with white skin and black hair. His eyes hidden behind the frameless glasses were smiling, and he looked like a girl liked.
"You are just a newcomer, so don't be too anxious at work." Du Zhonghai gave a few more instructions, and saw that the young man kept smiling and nodding, so he was satisfied and asked him to get familiar with his job.
After Chen Chang'an left, Du Zhonghai sighed. The city was not big, and the people's livelihood service department was even called the logistics and elderly care department. He didn't understand why the top student in the big city of Chen Chang'an came here to work. It was not until he sent him a detailed personal information about Chen Chang'an to him that he knew that there were so many hidden information later.
After their parents died on duty, they were worried that criminals would retaliate against the young Chen Chang'an. The relevant departments changed Chen Chang'an's name and found a way to get him here to work after he was raised. I'm afraid he wanted to live a stable life.
Wuming City has beautiful mountains and rivers, simple people, and is not valued by the outside world. It is indeed a good choice to arrange Shen Chang'an here.
After leaving the director's office, Chen Chang'an was warmly received by his colleagues. After introducing himself and greetings, Chen Chang'an confusedly agreed to his colleagues for dinner tonight.
Probably... Delicious food is the bond that communicates the soul. Chen Chang'an felt that these colleagues were all friendly, and even their Mandarin mixed with local dialects became cute.
There were five people in the office, and the oldest was Gao Shujuan, who was scalded with wool rolls. Although she was the deputy director of the department, everyone called her Sister Gao. She spoke a little loudly, but she looked very enthusiastic. The other three colleagues were all young people, Ding Yang and Chen Panpan had just graduated for one or two years, with the unique vitality of young people. Only one colleague named Xu Ze did not speak much, but when he decided to have a dinner at night, Chen Changan saw that he was lit up his head very quickly.
After listening to everyone chatting for half an hour, Chen Changan looked at the office desk in front of him that was so clean that there was no paper, and asked curiously: "What are the main tasks we usually do?"
The office suddenly became quiet, and even Xu Ze, who seemed aloof, coughed dryly.
"That Xiao Shen, our civil service department has just been established, and we were all transferred from other positions." Gao Shujuan's index finger hooked the curly hair on her forehead. "Our department is called the People's Livelihood Service Department, and of course the work we do is to serve everyone's lives."
Chen Changan pushed his glasses and felt that there seemed to be an atmosphere called embarrassment in the air.
"Everything related to people's lives is our scope of work." Ding Yang smiled, "In other words, we are just a brick, moving wherever we need."
"Then... that's quite amazing?" Chen Changan was stunned for a moment, and then he forced out a sentence, "What's our recent job?"
"Create a new trend of civilization and promote the scientific outlook on development." Xu Ze took out a thick stack of colorful leaflets from the drawer with expressionless face and placed them in front of Chen Chang'an. "This is a newly printed version today. Do you want to see it?"
Chen Chang'an took the top flyer. The quality of the flyer was not good, a bit like a small street advertisement. Several rows of large characters were printed in bold black on the flyer.
It is better to build more roads than worship gods and ghosts. Only by having more roads can you get rich.
Don’t ask the fairy lady if you are sick, and the hospital will be cured until the disease is cured.
It is better to work hard and make money than to work hard.
These small slogans are so simple and crude. Chen Chang'an coughed dryly and put the leaflet back in place: "Who thought of this slogan?"
Xu Ze looked up: "I."
"It's really well written, catchy and easy to remember." Chen Chang'an nodded heavily to show that he said this sentence sincerely, "very practical."
Xu Ze looked at him quietly for a few seconds and slowly spoke: "I admire you very much."
Chen Chang'an: "Ah?"
Xu Ze: "There are not many people who are as good as you," he said.
Chen Chang'an: "Thank you...thank you?"
After lunch, Chen Chang'an thought their job was to go out to hand out flyers, but Ding Yang told him that they were going out for field operations.
"Wait." Before leaving, Ding Yang took out a smaller version of the photo from the drawer. Chen Changan accidentally took a look and found that the photo showed the avatars of all the great men.
Seeing Chen Changan staring at him, Ding Yang paused when he placed the photo, and took out another photo from the drawer: "Do you... want it too?"
After taking it out, Ding Yang regretted it. He heard from Director Du that his new colleague was a top student from a big city. Although he didn't know why he came to work in their department, he heard that Director Du had put a lot of effort into introducing this talent, and even had a few more hair on his forehead.
Such a top student would not be as brave as him, because he was not brave enough and needed photos of great people to be brave.
"Thank you." Chen Changan took the photo and imitated Ding Yang's appearance: "What are we going to do in the afternoon?"
"Something happened in Yumi Village. The villagers complained that there was a ghost, which made the neighboring villagers panic. Let's go and see what happened so that the villagers can rest assured." Ding Yang put his phone down and took Chen Chang'an to a broken van. He turned his head and looked at Chen Chang'an's clean white shirt. He opened the car door and wiped the passenger seat with a gray coat. "Yimi Village is nearly thirty kilometers away from here. We go early and go back early."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Chen Changan had actually sat in the driver's seat and hurriedly said, "The road over there is not easy to drive. Please sit there with peace of mind and let me do it."
"Oh." Chen Changan looked at the steering wheel, got out of the car and sat in the passenger seat.
The rural road has not been repaired yet, and the road is covered with a layer of gravel. When a van is driving on this kind of road, it makes a jingle sound. Chen Changan couldn't help but wonder if the car would fall apart before it reached its destination?
"Ignorance and superstition hurt people." Ding Yang has become accustomed to this kind of rural road. His body sways in the car and his face remains calm. "A few years ago, some villagers believed the words of the liar and drank the divine water of unknown origin. More than a dozen people were sent to the hospital. Two people were not rescued, and the people were gone."
"There are also some old scammers who say that some women have evil spirits and want to exorcise evil spirits and take the opportunity to cheat money and sex." Ding Yang sighed in anger, "As long as people are greedy, it is difficult for scammers to kill them. What we can do can only increase everyone's vigilance and minimize everyone's losses."
"It's only two or three o'clock in the afternoon, why is the sky gloomy?" Ding Yang talked for a long time, and found something was wrong. He looked up at the sky, "There may be heavy rain later."
Chen Chang'an looked over and saw that the thick dark clouds covered the sun, and the whole sky seemed to be about to be pressed down. This was a sign of the torrential rain. He looked at the mountains on both sides of the road and pushed his glasses on his nose, "If the rain is too heavy, will there be rocks and landslides?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a big drop of rain hit the air, making the windshield crackle, and in a moment it was pouring heavy rain.
Ding Yang didn't dare to drive the car too fast, and the wiper kept shaking the windshield, and he couldn't let him see the road ahead clearly. He couldn't help but swear, "The sun is a golden retriever. When will the weather forecast department be accurate?"
"Be careful." Chen Changan helped him hold the steering wheel and avoid a huge rock in the middle of the road. He turned his head to look at Ding Yang, breathing a sigh of relief, "This section of the road is too dangerous, we must leave here as soon as possible."
After looking at the huge rock on the roadside, Ding Yang's heart trembled slightly. If something really happened here, there would be no village or shop in front of the village or behind, and there would be no people passing by. He and Chen Chang'an might have explained it here.
"Go back first." Ding Yang looked at the dark sky, "When the rain stops, we will go to the corn village."
"You have a rest first and let me open it." Looking at Ding Yang's trembling hands, Chen Changan opened the car door and walked out. The rain poured his head and face, and his shirt was all pressed on him.
Ding Yang didn't dare to hand over the car to Chen Chang'an, but it was raining and windy outside now, and his hands were trembling, and he couldn't drive such a muddy road.
He gritted his teeth and gave the driver's seat to Chen Chang'an.
"Don't worry, Brother Yang." Chen Changan took the driver's seat, took off his glasses and wiped it on his clothes, and smiled brightly at Ding Yang, "My driving skills are pretty good."
Ding Yang wanted to give a few more instructions, but when he met Chen Changan's smiling eyes, he kept holding back his words.
He said so confidently, it should be...no problem, right?
A few seconds later, Ding Yang found that he was still too naive. Chen Changan's driving skills were indeed not a problem, but it was too much.
"Ahhhhhh!"
"Chang'an, be more aware. You drive a van, not an airplane!"
Although this van is always teased by other owners as a divine light, it is actually a cheap and worn van!
"Brother Yang, don't worry, believe me, there's absolutely no problem." As soon as Chen Changan called the steering wheel, the van made a sharp turn on the winding mountain road, and Ding Yang felt that he seemed to be flying in the air.
He looked at Chen Chang'an in despair. At this moment, he felt that the glasses on Chen Chang'an's nose were shining with a trembling light.
Boom!
A rock fell, and the van avoided the attack of the rock at almost drifting speed. Chen Chang'an grinned at Ding Yang, "Look, I'll say it's okay."
Ding Yang's two thighs trembled and did not dare to speak.
Please don’t call me brother in the future. As long as you don’t become the Akima Mountain Race God, I’m willing to call you dad.
For some reason, Chen Chang'an drove the car very fast, but Ding Yang felt that they were still hovering on the mountain road, and the rain never saw light.
"Brother Yang, the rain seems to be getting heavier." Chen Changan frowned, "Why do you want to drive faster?"
"Chang'an, do you think this road is... very long?" Ding Yang shook, his face that was not small was white.
"Is there any?" Chen Changan raised his eyebrows, "Maybe because you want to go back too much, that's why you have this illusion." He said, "Don't worry, I have already recorded the road when I came, and I won't be able to drive the wrong road. If it really doesn't work, there is also a mobile phone navigation. Why don't you sleep for a while?"
