The road into the village is ten kilometers away from Shuanggou Village, and the fork is the gravel road, which is barely passable by transport vehicles, and can be passed by cars and the like a few miles before the village, and motorcycles can enter the village.

At the very least, the mountain road is crooked and steep, and the road surface is full of potholes, so it is difficult to walk safely without certain driving skills. Yang Zaixin used to go to Shuanggou Village, and the car stopped at the foot of the mountain, and then accompanied the leader to climb the slope. You can walk along the slopes of the mountain road or along the newly built gravel road.

This time I came to Shuanggou Village and was different from any previous time, it sounded like I came to the village to help the poor and stay in the village, but in fact, I was sent to this most remote corner by Minghua and others. Yang Zaixin doesn't care too much about this.

Last night, Li Zhu's performance and attitude at home made him have a premonition and psychological preparation for what changes his life would have. As long as he can't return to the county seat after three months, Li Zhu is likely to propose to separate their lives. This has been a sign for a long time, and it is not difficult to accept. Perhaps, when he chose to start a family with Li Zhu, he also made a choice because his parents talked a lot about it.

If there is a deep relationship with Li Zhu, it really does not exist, the two live together, the most important thing is to live. Nowadays, how many marriages are truly affectionate and deeply in love with each other?

In the past, every time I came to Shuanggou Village, there was a car and someone to accompany me, but this time, I took a bus from Baozhai Town to the town, and then, I could only walk. There are also cars in the town that can be sent to the foot of Shuanggou Village, Yang Zaixin feels that there is no need today, the time is not in a hurry, take a walk, get familiar with this place, and you can also see more things that you don't usually see.

Cadres stationed in villages must live in the village department, and the village provides daily necessities, which were distributed at the county's poverty alleviation work conference three years ago. At that time, Yang Zaixin was still a teacher, and he had heard about it and discussed it with his colleagues. Immediately, when he went to Zhang Tongjun's side as a secretary, he heard more people talk about this measure. For poverty alleviation cadres, it is better to provide some daily utensils than to bring them with them, and in addition, if they live in the homes of cadres or peasant households in a certain village all the year round, it will also affect their lives.

Walking along the simple road, before reaching the foot of the mountain, there are actually six or seven miles from the village. There are still five or six kilometers to walk around the road, and the mountain road is closer, but the road on the hillside is steep and difficult to navigate. Yang Zaixin has been by Zhang Tongjun's side all these years, and he has less physical exercise, and his physique is indeed weak, but when he left the county, he decided to make good use of this time to exercise in the village and restore his physique to a good state.

A good physique can better cope with the next changes in yourself.

Climbing the mountain, less than a hundred meters away, sweat soaked again. The water brought from the town had been drunk, and sweat was pouring down, and although the mountain road was lined with woods, it was a miscellaneous tree with little economic value. Occasionally, there are some shady spots on the way, so sit down and rest and look at the mountains a little further away.

I am also thinking, if a village like Shuanggou Village wants to alleviate poverty, which way can it really get rid of poverty?

The main factors of poverty in mountain villages are none other than these: lack of capital, lack of technology, lack of labor, poverty due to illness, disabled people, lack of land, lack of projects, etc. Taken together, there are thousands of factors that contribute to poverty in each family, but the result is the same: poverty.

Of course, there are also very few poor people who are lazy and unwilling to put in the effort to do things. Yang Zaixin has heard some examples of such strange things before, and some cadres in townships and towns and counties have also said it.

Shuanggou Village has a remote geographical location, traffic is blocked, and there is no unique advantage in resources. In terms of agricultural planting, compared with other villages in the county, Shuanggou Village is not backward. However, there is less arable land, and the per capita area of paddy fields is low. It is true that some mountain cultivation can be developed, but at present, the main labor force in the village has gone out to work, and some mountainous areas and distant cultivated fields have been abandoned.

It is not only difficult to deepen the poverty alleviation work in Shuanggou Village, but it is also difficult to find practical solutions, but this is also the case for most of the poverty alleviation work in other townships, towns, and village groups in the county. Superiors check the information, discipline check punch card. As for whether the difficulties in the village can be truly solved, sometimes it is really not something that the changemakers can do.

Of course, with the advancement of poverty alleviation work, the introduction of many national policies has brought a lot of benefits to the village. For example, compensation for land cultivation, compensation for forests, compensation for breeding to a certain amount, pensions for the elderly over 60 years old, and subsistence allowances for those who have lost their labor force, all of which can greatly change the living conditions of these people.

In rural areas, the pension of 103 yuan per month is indeed very small, but from scratch, 103 yuan can solve the cost of oil, salt, water and electricity, and it is likely that you can cut a piece of meat in the market to eat. Food, these basic rations, can be grown by themselves, and children and relatives can also give some living expenses, so there is no problem in living.

Yang Zaixin had learned about poverty alleviation before, had contact with people in the village, and had also been in contact with cadres doing such work on the front line, and had read a lot of report materials. But he really doesn't have a direct feeling, and his understanding of poverty alleviation is also superficial and data-based.

Now, he can't guarantee what kind of changes and what kind of deeds he will do when he comes to Shuanggou Village.

Climb all the way to the top of the mountain, the road goes around the slope halfway uphill, and then you see Shuanggou Village. The village of Shuanggou is in a canyon, and the village is flanked by a deep ravine. The gorge is said to be tens of kilometers long, stretching all the way to other provinces and extending to the plateau area.

In the ditch is a stream, the flow of water is relatively large, and the flow of water is clear to the bottom. It's just that these two streams converge in front of the village, and then slip away from another gorge, not in the direction of Baozhai Town, but leave Hengzhi County to Linshi.

Looking at the entire Shuanggou Village from this hill, it is the most standard ancient village. Except for a few new cement buildings that have not been built for many years, the others are old mud brick houses.

The light at noon is enough, and the whole village can be seen completely clearly, Yang Zaixin has also walked on this road before, and he has also seen Shuanggou Village from this perspective, but he is not as deep as now.

It seems that the village is the ladies of the Ming and Qing dynasties, delicate, transparent, full of agility, and the intricate houses are built layer by layer by mountain, and the roof tiles are blue, connected to each other. Yang Zaixin suddenly thought, will anyone come here to rent some old houses and decorate them a little as a place to live in seclusion and experience seclusion?

If it weren't for the impassable road, the village here would definitely not be able to be preserved in this way, and it is completely necessary to protect this ancient village. As for tourism development, the scenery of Shuanggou Village is also very high-quality. At the very least, it should be a good project to plan this place as a resort.

Whether this idea can be realized or not, Yang Zaixin has no confidence. Descending the mountain, to the village department, there is no one in the village department. Maybe the village leaders have all gone home, or maybe the village leaders have gone into hiding when they learned that they were coming to Shuanggou Village?

This possibility is not non-existent, Yang Zaixin smiled bitterly, and could only go to find someone.
