When the construction department encounters obstacles in the normal construction, it is necessary to keep calm and avoid casualties caused by intensified contradictions; secondly, arrange personnel to communicate with each other in time or contact the village committee for negotiation

.

In addition, the general public must be vigilant and distinguish right from wrong

.

If a relative or friend commits a crime, he or she should not take chances, let alone provide help
