During breakfast, Lin Chenfeng casually asked Lin Jianan,""Dad, I heard that Chen Lei is gambling?”
" Sigh, I know I can't hide this from you sooner or later," Lin Jianan sighed." But I don't want to distract you now."”
"It's okay. Tell me, what's the situation?”Lin Chenfeng asked patiently.
" Actually, we know that he's only here for two months," Lin Jianan said sadly." But I heard from others that he's been gambling for more than half a year, and he has a lot of gambling debts.”
"You owe gambling debts outside?" Lin Chenfeng was stunned for a moment." Could it be that he has never taken money from home?”
" Yes." Lin Jianan sighed." In the past six months, he took more than three thousand yuan from his house. At that time, we thought he was dating a girlfriend, so we didn't investigate him. But later, we found out that he not only lost all the money, but also borrowed money from others."”
"Have you asked him?" Lin Chenfeng frowned. How much money did he owe?”
" I asked him, but he never told me the truth." Lin Jianan shook his head helplessly." If I asked too much, he would say that it was not enough even if I sold the house. It almost made me half dead."”
"Dad, didn't you restrain him and tell him not to mess around like this?”Lin Chenfeng felt that the situation was a little serious, so he asked anxiously.
"Why aren't there any restrictions?" Lin Jianan shook his head and smiled bitterly." When I first found out about it, I rushed into the teahouse and flipped the table where he was playing cards. I even gave him a slap, but it was useless. He still continued to play.”
"The most infuriating thing was the teahouse owners. They actually warned me not to affect their normal business. They said that if I flipped the table for the first time, they could let it go on account that I was an old Secretary. If I went to the teahouse to cause trouble again, they wouldn't be so polite.”
" Oh," Lin Chenfeng asked without batting an eyelid," Which teahouse does Chen Lei often play cards at?”
"It's mainly the teahouses of Lin Fei, Lin Yi, and Lin Tao. These three teahouses all gamble heavily. If they light a shot, it'll be 50 yuan at least, and 200 yuan at most. Moreover, it's floating, so the winning or losing will be at least 1,000 yuan. If you're unlucky or someone makes a nest, the winning or losing of a single rope can be tens of thousands.”Lin Jianan said with a face full of hatred.
"So big?" Lin Chenfeng inhaled a breath of cold air and said," Isn't this openly gathering a crowd? Could it be that the government and the police station didn't care?”
" Yes, of course," Lin Jianan sneered." But the police station has collected the tribute from the court, so when they come to check on the gambling, they will send a letter to the teahouse in advance. So, when the police car from the police station set off from the township government, the one here has already closed."”
" I don't think it's that simple." Lin Chenfeng shook his head and said," This gamble is so big. Something big will happen sooner or later. I don't think the people in the police station are so stupid as to ruin their future for a little tribute."”
" Actually, I think so too," Lin Jianan sighed and said," But every time they come to check on gambling, someone does call from the township government, and then someone from here will pass the letter everywhere."”
" Maybe someone who lives near the township government saw the police cars from the police station and called them," Lin Chenfeng thought for a moment and said," But what's certain is that they have spies in the township government.”
" The most hateful thing is that these teahouse owners even colluded with foreigners to cheat the locals of their money," Lin Jianan said angrily." At the end of last year, Li Taishan of Wuzi Alley lost more than 40,000 yuan for three days and three nights because he was cheated by others. In the end, he not only sold the water in his house, but also gave his house to others as collateral.”
"Don't they care about their reputation?”Lin Chenfeng frowned and asked.
"Reputation?" Lin Jianan shook his head and smiled bitterly." You should know about the three of them. Lin Fei is a scoundrel. When he was in the supply and marketing cooperative, he had a detonator tied to his body. He was only short of paying for it with the director of the supply and marketing cooperative.”
"Lin Yi is the cousin of the deputy head of the village, Lin Xiong 'an. Now, he has opened a green tea farm. He has made a lot of money in the past few years, so he is arrogant in Lin Family Village.”
"Lin Tao is the distant brother-in-law of Lin Zhiming, the branch secretary of the Lin Family Village. He also runs a green tea farm and has a group of young men under him who often help him collect debts outside.”
" No wonder they dared to kill so brazenly," Lin Chenfeng said thoughtfully." It seems that the teahouse has become a tumor in the Lin Family Village. If we don't clean it up, it won't be easy to do anything in the Lin Family Village."”
" Exactly." Lin Jianan sighed." In fact, not only the Lin Family Village, but also the neighboring villages such as Huanggang, Huangmei, Qingluo, Anping, and Ziyan have suffered greatly. Especially those young people who have just graduated from school and have nothing to do at home. They are all regular customers of the gambling house."”
"They often do that. Where do they get the money from?”Lin Chenfeng asked in confusion.
Lin Jianan shook his head and sighed." If they don't have it at home, they steal. They steal livestock, electric wires, bicycles, and motorcycles. So, the number of thefts in the village has been rising in recent years. I think if this continues, Lin Family Village will become a den of bandits."”
"Has the village become so bad?" Lin Chenfeng was surprised." Then why didn't I know about it? It seems that my senses are still relatively slow.”
" That's not your fault." Lin Jianan tried to explain his son's situation." Ever since you went to college, you've been doing social practice during your summer vacation. How many days do you come back in a year?" It's normal that you don't know. Even if you're back, we can't tell you these dirty things in order not to distract you.”
" No wonder you said that it's not easy to straighten out the relationship in the village," Lin Chenfeng said thoughtfully." It seems that if we don't use a few strong drugs to get rid of all these malignant tumors, then the Lin Family Village will not have any fundamental changes.”
When Lin Jianan heard what his son said, he immediately understood. He looked at Lin Chenfeng with a serious face and said," Feng 'er, you must not get involved in this kind of muddy water. Anyway, you will be transferred up in a year's time. Don't offend people over this kind of thing.”
" I understand." Lin Chenfeng nodded and smiled." I won't do anything rash. After all, I still have to stay here for a year."”
" I'm telling you the truth." Lin Jianan looked at his son's expression and felt a little uneasy, so he reminded him again," The security and order of a village cannot be done by a single village cadre. It depends on the joint efforts of the members of the village branch committee and the support of the township government to solve the fundamental problem.”
" But now, not only is the management of the village scattered, but the attitude of the township government is also very vague," Lin Jianan continued." In fact, if the township government really wants to rectify the situation in Lin Family Village, they can clean it up with one net. However, the township government has not moved, so the people below have turned a blind eye.”
"Why?" Lin Chenfeng asked in confusion," I don't think the township government also accepted the tribute, right?”
" Of course not." Lin Jianan shook his head." There's another reason why the township government doesn't care about this.”
"What's the reason?" Lin Chenfeng asked.
