    Chapter 236: Burn incense and worship Buddha</p>

    Several comrades from the Linhu Community Neighborhood Committee accompanied Xiao Han and Qi Yue around the community.  </p>

    The situation in the Linhu community is indeed not optimistic. The roads are not only full of potholes, but also due to serious random construction, which makes the already narrow and uneven roads even more difficult to walk on. Not to mention driving in, even pushing an electric car or motorcycle in.  You will also find it difficult.  </p>

    Xiao Han took a general look at the situation and found that if he wanted to build a road, he must first clear out all the illegal buildings that were occupied and built haphazardly on the road. Otherwise, the road would not be repaired at all.  </p>

    After looking at the situation, Xiao Han returned to the Linhu Community Neighborhood Committee and held a brief meeting to let everyone speak freely and see if there was any good way to persuade the residents to tear down all the small houses and sheds they had built privately.  </p>

    "However, the aunts and sisters-in-law in the neighborhood committee looked at each other, and then they all lowered their heads and fell silent.  </p>

    How is this going?  Although Xiao Han also knew that this demolition work was not easy to do, it had to be done. What was going on if he didn't say anything?  Xiao Han coughed and said, "Aunts and sisters-in-law, if you have any difficulties, just tell us and we can discuss it together and solve it."</p>

    At this time, Sister Liu, the director of the neighborhood committee, had no choice but to raise her head, glance at Xiao Han, and speak: "Director Xiao, the situation is like this. This demolition work is difficult to say, but in fact it is easy to say. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as  There are several companies that have taken the lead in the demolition, so other residents will not be too embarrassed. After all, building roads and improving the community environment are also doing good things for everyone's living environment, but this" Sister Liu stopped talking again,  There seems to be something unspeakable.  </p>

    Xiao Han asked: "Just what?"</p>

    Sister Liu looked at him, then looked left and right, and said, "Okay, let me tell you, it's like this. The first house on the road in the community is Grandma Liu's house, and the small house their family built also occupies the most of the road.  , As long as there is a way to demolish the small house of Grandma Liu¡¯s house, other families will not dare to demolish it, but no one will dare to demolish Grandma Liu¡¯s house.¡±</p>

    "Why?" Xiao Han asked.  </p>

    "Because Grandma Liu's son is Liu Dongsheng, the deputy secretary of our H City Municipal Party Committee. Who dares to demolish his house? Moreover, there is an allusion to this small house."</p>

    "Allusion?"</p>

    "Yes, Grandma Liu's small house was built a long time ago. It must have been more than ten years ago. At that time, Secretary Liu Dongsheng was just a deputy section chief of the Municipal Education Bureau. At that time, he was thirty-five years old and the house was built.  Not long after he was cured, a fortune-telling monk passed by. Grandma Liu asked him to tell her son's fortune to see how his son would develop in his career and when he would become a high official.  Her son's birth date was horoscoped, and then she patted her bald head and said, "Old man, this little house your family has built is a geomantic treasure. It faces south. If you want to get rich and get promoted, it won't be long before your son will be promoted. Moreover, this little house  You must not demolish the house, you must keep it. Not only must you keep it, but you must also burn incense and offer it to Buddha inside, and pray once a day. As he said this, the monk took out a small statue of Buddha from his canvas bag.  The small, glittering Golden Buddha was said to only cost 300 yuan. Money was valuable at that time, and 300 yuan was a lot. Pork was only sold for 3 yuan a pound at that time, but Grandma Liu could let her son hear it.  When he got promoted and got rich, he immediately took out three hundred yuan from the box and gave it to the monk. The monk was so happy that he bought one and got one free. He also gave several boxes of incense to Grandma Liu. Grandma Liu originally built the small house.  I was going to make a kitchen. Later, I stopped making a kitchen. I moved out all the pots, pans, gas stoves, etc., put a table inside, and offered the little golden Buddha to it, 24 hours a day.  Burning incense, Grandma Liu not only worships once a day, but also worships every morning and evening."</p>

    "This is completely a superstitious activity." Xiao Han said.  </p>

    "Yes, that's what the neighbors said at the time, saying that Grandma Liu was deceived by the fake monk. Even her son, Secretary Liu Dongsheng, thought so, but later, it became strange"</p>

    "What's so weird?"</p>

    "Ever since that monk came, Grandma Liu burned incense and worshiped Buddha in that small house every day. In less than a month, Secretary Liu Dongsheng was promoted from a deputy section chief of the then Municipal Education Bureau to section chief. Half a year later, he was promoted to section chief.  I became the deputy director, and then a year later, I became the director. Three years later, I became the deputy mayor. Two years later, I became the deputy secretary of our municipal party committee. This journey has really been called a meteoric rise.  , at this time, Grandma Liu smiled and said, didn¡¯t you say that I was deceived? Now you can see it. This is called facts speak louder than words. Not only Grandma Liu, but also the neighbors believed it, saying that it was the monk.  It was some kind of fairy in the sky who inspired me from the lower realms. Many people also thoughtFollowing the trend of burning incense and worshiping Buddha at home, those who are doing business, being officials, and those whose children are going to college all burn incense and worship Buddha at home. But Grandma Liu said, your incense is burned in vain, and your worshiping Buddha is also in vain, because your incense and  Buddhas are all fake. Without the enlightenment of Bodhisattva, it is useless even if you knock your head and bleed. So some people want to go to Grandma Liu¡¯s small house to worship Buddha, but Grandma Liu won¡¯t let them, saying that the Buddha is a god.  The Bodhisattva specially asked me to pray for my son's future. If you pray like this, it will not be effective. Therefore, no matter how much money someone gives, Grandma Liu will not let me worship. Now, you say you want to demolish this little house.  Will Grandma Liu agree?  But if Grandma Liu¡¯s small house is not to be demolished, it will be difficult to demolish other people¡¯s houses.  ¡±</p>

    After hearing this ridiculous so-called allusion, Xiao Han nodded, knowing that this is indeed a problem. The elderly have a somewhat rigid personality and thinking. If they continue to be superstitious, even nine cows will not be able to pull them back. The elderly are originally  I'm getting older, and if I get too excited, someone may die. However, this matter can't be left alone just because an old lady is superstitious. It has been hindered from the beginning.  There is no way to carry out the work. Going further, how can I do anything in Guangming Street in the future?  </p>

    Xiao Han then asked: "What does Secretary Liu Dongsheng think about this matter?"</p>

    Sister Liu looked at him, then looked around, and said: "Of course Secretary Liu thought it was superstitious at first. Later, as he continued to advance, he began to believe it. I heard that some people saw that Secretary Liu once closed the door in that small building.  I¡¯m secretly burning incense and worshiping Buddha in the house.¡± (More exciting things will continue in the next chapter, new books will be uploaded, please collect them and ask for red tickets!)</p>
