Chapter 137: Shotguns Openly Appear on Main Street

  "Ah...this, this is really a problem that can't be solved for the time being." He Wenbao scratched his head. The issue of family planning was indeed a major headache in the county. It could be said that almost every leader saw the problem, but couldn't think of a solution. Some leaders had even cracked down on family planning after taking office, and would immediately rush to the scene with a large team as soon as they heard that someone was preparing to have another child outside of the plan, and forcibly take them away for an abortion. However, this approach not only failed to solve the problem but also escalated the conflict, because the local people were all from the same village and shared the same surname, making them all relatives. This led to a strong sense of solidarity among the locals, and several instances of forced arrests almost resulted in major civil unrest incidents. In the end, the leaders were punished by their superiors, and the issue of family planning was quietly dropped.

  Since then, all the leaders who took office would try to avoid this problem. In everyone's view, such an old and difficult problem can't find any solution. It's better to do other things instead of struggling with this matter, at least it won't create anything that affects social stability.

  It's often like this in the workplace, the more things you do, the higher the probability of problems arising, on the other hand, those who don't do anything are stable and steady, and eventually get promoted. Gradually, everyone has come to understand this principle, and as a result, fewer and fewer people are willing to take action.

  Watching He Wenbao unable to think of a solution, Feng Sicheng chuckled and stopped talking, instead looking out the window.

  He Wenbao thought that since Feng Sizi was so calm, he must have a way to resolve the issue, and wanted to ask him what the leader's good method was, but he didn't say anything. As a subordinate, he couldn't ask either. Just then, a motorcycle suddenly drove up outside the restaurant door, drawing He Wenbao's attention away.

  It's not the motorcycle that attracts people, but rather the person riding it. It's not like you can see anything special about motorcycles here, and of course, there are very few people who have enough money to buy a motorcycle in this poor mountainous area. But this is not the main reason why people notice them. The real reason is the rider's outfit: a pair of black sunglasses, a shiny black leather jacket, and that hair - it's actually blonde! For someone like this to appear in Shisanli Town is really an unusual sight.

  But what really shocked Feng Si Zhe, a man who had seen countless grand scenes, was that tied to the back of the motorcycle was a single-barreled shotgun, gleaming in plain sight. It's been ages since the domestic ban on firearms was issued, and some people have even been sentenced for it, yet here someone was being so brazen, it was utterly outrageous.

  Feng Siche also only showed a surprised look on his face before lowering his head, facing such a arrogant thing he really didn't understand, and at the same time had a new understanding of the folk customs in the countryside.

  He Wenbao had also heard people say that in the town below, some people would take out their hunting guns and show them off in a high-profile manner. At first, he didn't believe it, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but feel shocked inside. However, when he thought about the leader being right next to him, he figured it wasn't his place to intervene since the leader hadn't said anything. So he shifted his attention to Feng Sicheng's face and upon seeing that the county head didn't seem to be taking this matter seriously, he also calmed down a lot.
