Chapter 2022 Gunshots
Before he could see a week passed, Qiao Liang had been handling official duties in the office these days, and his health was recovering better and better. His injured right shoulder had begun to slowly exert a little bit of energy.
As his health recovered, Qiao Liang began to arrange his outing trip.
The first stop for going out for research and inspection, Qiao Liang still placed in Linnei Village, Nanshan Township, which he linked to.
The beekeeping professional cooperative in Linnei Village has been established with the support of the government, and the county invested 300,000 in advance as the start-up capital. The first batch of villagers who are interested in trying to maintain beekeeping can apply for interest-free loans from the cooperative.
Qiao Liang came to Linnei Village for the first time after being injured, not to show off, but to let people see his importance to poverty alleviation work.
This is true for many government work. Only when the top leader pays attention can the departments below work hard to promote it.
Qiao Liang came here today mainly to see how the first batch of villagers who participated in the pilot have made progress.
Under the leadership of the village cadres, Qiao Liang came to one of the villagers' homes. According to the introduction of the village cadres, this was the most courageous villager. He borrowed more than 20,000 yuan from the cooperative and bought thirty beehives in one go and came back to breed them.
Listening to the introduction of the village cadres, Qiao Liang asked the person in charge of the Agriculture Bureau who was accompanying him, "Are the beekeeping technical guidance personnel in place?"
"Yes, we hired a professional beekeeper to provide guidance to villagers at any time." The head of the Agricultural Bureau replied.
Qiao Liang nodded, and led the way to the edge of the field where the beehives were placed, and asked enthusiastically, "How many times can be harvested in a man-bred bees like this?"
"Leader, I have just learned this, so I have to ask the experts to find out." The villagers who were asked said silly.
As soon as the villagers finished speaking, a man following the head of the Agricultural Bureau hurried out and replied, "County magistrate, those who use live-framed beehives can be taken as long as the honey is full in the beehives, regardless of the season."
"Is that so? How many kilograms of honey can such a beehive produce in a year?" Qiao Liang asked again.
"This is not necessarily the case. It is usually between 30 and 60 kilograms. If you encounter a good year, there will be hundreds of kilograms a year." The man replied.
"Oh, is the main income of the villagers all in honey sales?" Qiao Liang asked again.
The man smiled and replied, "Bees breeding, honey produced is an important source of income, but there is another major source of income, which is the sale of beehives. In the current market, a beehive can be sold for about 800 yuan. If one beehive is cultivated, it will be 80,000 yuan. This is a large amount of income. I have seen the natural conditions of Linnei Village, and it is really suitable for bee breeding here."
"Then it seems that this road is right." Qiao Liang looked at the villager next to him and encouraged him, "Do it well and have a great future. I hope you can become the first in Linnei Village to get rid of poverty and become rich, and then you can help other villagers get rid of poverty and become rich together."
"Thank you for your support from the leader. I will definitely work hard and thank the county for its good policies that will allow us to obtain interest-free loans from the county." The villagers said gratefully.
Seeing that the villagers were talking very well, Qiao Liang couldn't help but look at the township cadres behind him, wondering if the township cadres taught the villagers to say this.
"County Magistrate Qiao, our village thinks the model of this beekeeping professional cooperative is very good. I want to promote it to the whole township. I don't know what you think?" said the village chief who accompanied him.
"Yes, as long as you think it is feasible, then promote it in the village. Maybe the bee breeding industry can become a pillar industry in your Nanshan Township." Qiao Liang said.
The two were talking, suddenly, "Bang" a crisp gunshot came from nearby, which scared everyone present, especially Qiao Liang, who had just suffered a gunshot attack, and the gunshot wound on his right shoulder had not yet recovered completely. Hearing the gunshot, Qiao Liang was frightened, turned his head and looked around, staring, "Where did the gunshot sound come from?"
The cadres in the village who were accompanying looked at each other, most of them didn't know what happened. One or two seemed to know the inside story, and a strange look flashed in their eyes.
Seeing that no one answered, Qiao Liang looked at the village cadre in the village and asked, "Do you know what's going on?"
The village cadres seemed to know the situation, and they looked hesitant and hesitant without saying anything.
"Why, do you know whether you report it?" Qiao Liang's face turned cold.
"No, County Magistrate Qiao, I don't mean that, but I don't know much about the situation, but the gunshots seemed to be coming from the forest reserve." The village cadre said hurriedly.
He actually knew the inside story, but he just didn't dare to say it clearly.
Just as the village cadre finished speaking, another gunshot sounded, almost scaring Qiao Liang. Damn, after he was shot, he reacted a little stressed to the gunshot, like a frightened bird.
At this time, the head of the Agricultural Bureau said, "Is it because someone poached wild animals in the reserve?"
"Poaching wild animals?" Qiao Liang was stunned when he heard this. There was really a possibility, otherwise how could gunfire sound in the reserve?
Qiao Liang's face was a little ugly and looked at the cadres in the village, "Aren't there any forest rangers in the protection area? Do they not patrol the mountains on a daily basis?"
"Yes, forest rangers patrol the mountains every day." A township cadre replied.
When Qiao Liang heard this, his brow frowned slightly. There were forest rangers in the reserve, and people who poached wild animals were so rampant?
"Go and go over and take a look." Qiao Liang walked towards the protection area and ordered, "Let the township police station dispatch police force to come immediately."
The village is very close to the reserve. To be precise, the village is actually within the scope of the forest area protection area. At the foot of the mountain, there is a guard post that sets up checkpoints to intercept foreign vehicles and prevents strange vehicles from entering the forest area, which is to prevent people from coming in to poach wild animals.
Before the group could go out, they saw two villagers wearing forest rangers' armbands walking down from the mountain. Qiao Liang saw the two, waved and shouted, "Is it the gunshots coming from the mountain just now?"
The two forest rangers were stunned when they heard this. They did not recognize Qiao Liang, but when they saw the township cadres who were always arrogant and stood respectfully behind Qiao Liang, they could know that Qiao Liang in front of them was an amazing figure without guessing.
The two forest rangers did not answer, but secretly glanced at the village cadre, as if they were looking at each other's wink.
Qiao Liang saw the little movements of the two. Qiao Liang immediately looked at the village cadre and said in a cold voice, "Do you know what's going on, do you?"
"County Magistrate Qiao, I..." The village cadre stuttered, wanting to say it but not daring to say it.
Qiao Liang has been to Linnei Village three times today. He originally had a good impression of the township cadre stationed in the village, but now his performance has disappointed Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang didn't ask any questions at this time, pointed at the two forest rangers and said, "You two lead the way, I want to see who is so bold and come to the reserve to poach wild animals."
The two forest rangers stood still, but looked at the village cadre in the village. Qiao Liang sneered when he saw this, "Okay, it seems that I can't speak well."
"County Magistrate Qiao asked you to lead the way, why don't you hurry up?" The village cadre shivered when Qiao Liang saw it and shouted quickly.
The group walked up the mountain under the guidance of the forest ranger. As soon as they walked a while, Qiao Liang saw several men walking down. One of them was holding a hunting rifle and the other was carrying an unknown animal in his hand. He was not small and several walked down with a chatter and laughter.
Qiao Liang's pupils shrank, and his eyes focused directly on the man in the middle. The man was nothing but Wu Jiang, chairman of Dong Aluminum Group.
Wu Jiang obviously didn't expect to meet Qiao Liang here. When he saw Qiao Liang, Wu Jiang was stunned for a moment and then smiled, "Oh, this is County Magistrate Qiao, lucky to be."
"Mr. Wu, you openly brought people to the reserve to poach wild animals. This is a violation of the law." Qiao Liang did not respond, but questioned.
"County Magistrate Qiao, what you said is, why is poaching?" Wu Jiang smiled.
"There are both evidence and physical evidence. Is there anything else that Chairman Wu wants to argue?" Qiao Liang looked at the person next to Wu Jiang.
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, the smile on Wu Jiang's face slowly disappeared. He saw that Qiao Liang had no intention of giving him face at all, otherwise the other party would not question him in front of so many people, but should turn a blind eye.
After restraining his expression, Wu Jiang said lightly, "County Magistrate Qiao, where did you see me poaching wild animals? I didn't have a gun or a wild animal. Look at me, my hands are empty, you can't spit out a slander."
After hearing Wu Jiang say this, Qiao Liang almost vomited blood. Damn, Wu Jiang can really open his eyes and tell lies. Do you think everyone present is a fool?
No one present would believe Wu Jiang's words, but obviously no one dared to stand up and say anything. Wu Jiang seemed to be demonstrating and looked at the village cadre. The other party was the deputy township head of the village. Wu Jiang knew the other party, smiled slightly, and asked, "Groupe Head Zhang, do you think I have poached wild animals?"
"This..." The deputy township chief was speechless and lowered his head under Wu Jiang's gaze, not daring to say anything.
"County Magistrate Qiao, have you seen it? I didn't poach wild animals. I just came with my friends." Wu Jiang turned his eyes to Qiao Liang and said calmly.
Qiao Liang didn't say anything with a cold face. Wu Jiang was indeed empty-handed and didn't take anything at this time. But among the few people, Wu Jiang stood in the middle, and the man holding a hunting rifle and carrying a wild animal next to him seemed to be a follower. If Wu Jiang was accompanying someone else, Qiao Liang wouldn't believe it.
At this moment, the people from the township police station came. Qiao Liang looked excited and pointed at the Wujiang people and said, "These people are suspected of poaching wild animals. Take them back and check them carefully. No matter who they are, as long as they violate the law, they will be investigated to the end."
"County Magistrate Qiao, you are so angry." Wu Jiang's face turned cold and he stared at Qiao Liang.
