Chapter 260 Soil Erosion and Returning Farmland to Forests
In the provincial capital, I found a relatively quiet river fishing restaurant, where there are authentic Songhua River fresh fish. The manager of the hotel obviously knew Xia Dazhi, and just about to greet him, Xia Dazhi waved his hand and said, "Today is a private banquet, just don't make a noise, just find us a private room." ”
The manager understood, nodded, and took them to a very quiet box, this fish restaurant is very emotional, and the decoration looks like a Jiangnan water town, and the boss is obviously not a person who only knows Brother Kong Fang.
Shi Zhilong didn't want to follow up, but Xia Dazhi patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Let's go together, what's the matter, it's not interesting to eat with me as an old man?" I've heard about it, thanks to you today, otherwise, just Xiao Yang and my girl, you won't have to suffer?"
Shi Zhilong glanced at Xiao Yang, Xiao Yang smiled and said, "Uncle Xia is not an outsider. ”
Xia Dazhi obviously liked to listen to this sentence, but Xia Xue was a little shy, lowered her head, blushed slightly, and didn't speak.
Xia Dazhi said with a smile: "The business of this fish restaurant is very hot, more than ten years ago, it was still a low small earthen house, and there were only two or three tables, hey, people still have to rely on chance in this life!"
Xiao Yang listened to Xia Dazhi's voice with some emotion, and asked strangely: "Uncle Xia still knows the boss of this house?"
Xia Dazhi said: "I have known him for many years, I will eat here as soon as I come to the provincial capital, the boss of this house, can be regarded as watching me get up step by step from the grassroots level, hehe, he is also getting bigger step by step, it can be regarded as working together to harvest together." ”
Xiao Yang found that Xia Dazhi was in a good mood today, probably because it had a lot to do with seeing Zhou Qunshan eating deflated, so he asked with a smile: "That person, is it your subordinate?"
Xia Dazhi said casually: "He." Hehe, the director of the Financial Audit Division of the Forestry Department, a cadre at the deputy department level, I didn't come to the Forestry Department. He's been fighting for that position. ”
Xiao Yang nodded suddenly, it turned out to be like this, but he was also a little puzzled by Xia Dazhi's confidence in himself, it is said that this kind of thing should not be said easily.
Xia Dazhi saw Xiao Yang's doubts. smiled and said, "You said that you are not an outsider." The whole Forestry Department knows this. Speak with you. What's there again. That's right. I'm looking for you today. But there is a place where you are really found. ”
Xiao Yang smiled and said, "Then I'll listen to you!"
Xia Dazhi looked at Xiao Yang with some emotion. Originally, this matter was to find his son Xia Shuguang to operate the place. However, Xia Shuguang shook his head when he heard it. It's too slow to say that this kind of thing works. What benefits the country and the people. What do you have to do with me. I want land to make money. I'm just a businessman now.
"We're in the Northeast. The soil is of good quality. In the past, the Great Northern Wilderness. Now it has the title of Kitakurachi. But all these years. With over-exploitation. and deforestation. The water and soil flow began to get serious. Especially in the last few years. The forestry sector below is largely inactive. It's good to have money to take. The ground opens casually. I want to change that. Xia Dazhi looked at Xiao Yang. Straight to the point.
"Uh...... Uncle Xia. You don't think I have the ability to change this place, do you?" Xiao Yang looked at Xia Dazhi suspiciously. The other nodded. Xiao Yangcai said with a sad face: "At best, I can only guarantee the location of the Feiyang Group. That's where I live. The people of Xingfu Township gave up opening up wasteland. Belch. It's not all given up. Although it is said that the living conditions of the local people have improved a lot in the past two years. But money is such a thing. There's never too much to do. I found it right around my home in the mountains. Many villagers began to open up the wasteland. This kind of thing. I can manage one or two. I can't control the group. It also requires the cooperation of the local forestry department. But you're right. The local forestry department will collect money...... Xiao Yang said with a wry smile: "Xingfu Township is a good land. Surrounding other townships. Economically inferior to Happy Township. As a result, local deforestation is more serious. Local forestry authorities. It seems to be happening. ”
Xia Dazhi nodded. If he is not a local cadre from the grassroots level. I'm afraid I won't believe Xiao Yang's words. Because he has worked at the grassroots level for many years. So it's all too clear about this kind of thing. Looking at Xiao Yang, he said: "If the forestry department wants to increase supervision. Stop the villagers from clearing wasteland. You Feiyang Group. Can you do something good for the people of the province?"
Xiao Yang was stunned for a moment, what is a good thing, it doesn't want to be with us to compensate those who have recovered cultivated land, right? Xiao Yang remembered that in the previous life, it seemed that after 2000, the state introduced a policy on returning farmland to forest land, but until 07 and 08 years, it was not completely cleaned, this is a long-term thing, with Feiyang Group a private enterprise, how much can it help?
However, I feel that Xia Dazhi really wants to do something practical for the people, this kind of thing is actually very offensive, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a situation from which you will never recover, Xiao Yang looked at Xia Dazhi with some concern: "Uncle Xia, you must really resolutely resolve to return farmland to forests, but you have to take a big risk!"
Xia Dazhi smiled gently, feeling that he was not wrong, and said: "Of course I know this, now in many places, the forestry department has colluded with the locals, and the officials protect each other, but since we have decided to really do something real and not let future generations point to our backbone and scold our graves, we can only start a little!"
Looking at Xia Dazhi's resolute face, Xiao Yang suddenly remembered what Premier Zhu said when he took office, and couldn't help sighing, in fact, the country has no shortage of good officials who sincerely do things for the people, but they often have to face the counterattack of forming a network, which is not easy.
Sighing secretly, Xiao Yang asked, "Then Uncle Xia thinks that our small agricultural company can help you?"
Xia Dazhi scolded with a smile: "You little slippery head, I haven't told you yet, don't be in a hurry to hide back." At this time, the waiter brought the dishes up, they were all pure river fish, and the taste was very fresh, and when they were served, they couldn't help but move their index fingers.
Waiting for the waiter to retreat, Xia Dazhicai continued: "You know that there is a large state-owned paper mill in the provincial capital, right?"
Xiao Yang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered what Li Tianwu said to him, saying that Li Shiyun was retaliated against because of exposing the pollution of the paper mill, and then nodded and said, "I've heard of it, what?"
Xia Dazhi sandwiched a piece of fish meat without thorns for the woman. Then he said: "It has been a long time since the paper mill was polluted, and I knew about it, but I have always been powerless." Paper mills are the key income-generating enterprises of the government departments, and the annual tax amount is as high as hundreds of millions of yuan, and if you want to remediate its pollution, it will not work without hundreds of millions, and now a tributary of the Songhua River has become a real black river polluted by them. ”
Xia Xue interjected on the side: "Is it because they can generate income for the country, and the country doesn't care about the life or death of the people?"
Xia Shuguang looked at his daughter, shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "The city's environmental protection bureau has a fine of 10 million or 20 million yuan every year. But a fine of 10 million or 20 million is compared to hundreds of millions of renovation funds. Which one is big and which is small, you don't need me to tell you?" Then he sighed and said: "A while ago, a large number of residents on both sides of the river downstream of the sewage were found to be suffering from cancer. The results of the inspection pointed directly at the paper mill. But this kind of thing, the government can generally suppress it, for paper mills such as large profits and taxes, basically will not let its negative image burst into the public eye. Who knew that the youngest daughter of Governor Li's family was very bold, first interviewing the sick family members, and then interviewing the local workers of the paper mill. Of course, those family members will not say anything nice about the paper mill, but what they say is also the truth, even those employees of the paper mill are all worried about their physical condition. The paper mill is an old enterprise. The ruins have always been very good, so even if there are any problems with it. It's not that easy to solve. ”
Xiao Yang raised his head and looked at Xia Dazhi at this time, and then said, "Is that the interview of Vice Governor Li's daughter in the newspaper?"
Xia Dazhi nodded and said: "Yes, when I saw the newspaper, it immediately caused a lot of social repercussions, the leaders of the city were angry, and wanted to investigate this reporter, but the result was found to Vice Governor Li, naturally I couldn't do anything to her, as a result, what I didn't expect was that just last night, Li Shiyun, who came back from Hong Kong, was retaliated against, had a car accident, and almost lost her life, Vice Governor Li was immediately angry, and found Governor Zhang, so the news came out today, saying that the province was determined to rectify the paper mill. ”
Xia Dazhi took a bite of food, then looked at Xiao Yang and said: "I feel that the paper mill is in a catastrophe this time, Xiao Yang, how about it, do you have the courage to take over such an enterprise? and then plant paper woodland on the cultivated land that has been returned to forest land in the province, you can rest assured, I will definitely give you all the preferential policies that can be given to you!"
Feelings, Xia Dazhi went around such a big ***, and finally went around here. Xiao Yang's heart moved, of course he knew that the paper mill was a large state-owned enterprise with an annual turnover of more than two billion, and it was still profitable, and the company that had been listed, if it wanted to be acquired, it would be very troublesome, and there were countless problems involved, it was simply a hot potato.
Xiao Yang shook his head and said: "If you can drive away those big and small leaders, clear out the debts of the factory, and ensure that there will be no tail left, I will dare to take over!"
Xia Dazhi smiled: "This is what you said, you can't play tricks on me!"
Xiao Yang frowned, looking at Xia Dazhi, who seemed to be very proud, and felt that there was a full set of flavors, but thinking about the information about the paper mill he knew, it was definitely a profitable enterprise, which was very different from the Jiangcheng Beverage Factory, which was a rag that no one wanted to take over, and the paper mill in the provincial capital was a hen that could lay golden eggs, worth at least tens of billions, who didn't want such an enterprise, even if it was a princeling from the capital, it would be greedy, how could it be their turn?
"Uncle Xia, you can't hurt me!" Xiao Yang picked up his wine glass, signaled to Xia Dazhi, and decided to call Su Wenxiu and Han Mengru when he went back at night, he had to say hello, is there a trap here, anyway, it's just a matter of talking about it now, discussing, even if he regrets it, it's a big deal to end up with a reputation for playing tricks, anyway, he is still young, this is a big advantage of being young.
Xia Dazhi said with a smile: "How can it hurt you, you can rest assured, the paper mill does not have any debts now, and the annual profit can reach between 1.7 billion and 2 billion, and the original tax is about nearly 200 million, if you take over, it will be tax-free within three years, how about it, is this condition too exciting?"
Xiao Yang looked at Xia Dazhi, and then said with a smile: "Uncle Xia, I don't believe that there will be pies in the sky, everyone wants to eat a free lunch, but not everyone can eat it." You'd better be honest with me, I'm really interested, but you've always asked for something for such good conditions, right?"
Xia Dazhi nodded, and then said with a wry smile: "Of course there are requirements, you kid is a ghost, hehe, that's the case, the country has long intended to prohibit the phenomenon of indiscriminate felling and land reclamation, with the current rate of soil erosion, it will not take ten years, and there will not be many good mountains in the entire Northeast." ”
Xiao Yang nodded thoughtfully, in the later generations, most of the land that was reclaimed in the mountains of his hometown was washed away by flash floods in about 99 years, but the people still farmed there in order to make more money, this is a vicious circle, the food obtained from farming is getting less and less, and the money is becoming more and more difficult to earn, and the people want to reclaim more and more land, and then soil erosion, so the cycle continues, I am afraid that it will not take a hundred years, and the original good living environment will be completely lost.
"I was called to a meeting last night, and the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee has studied a set of plans like this, our province, as a major agricultural province, should take the lead, and the incident on the side of the paper mill can be used as a breakthrough, who takes over this enterprise, who is responsible for the work of returning farmland to forests in the province, and then, the government cooperates!" Xia Dazhi finally said what was in his heart.
"Huh?" When Xiao Yang heard this, he immediately shook his head like a rattle, this is too, not to mention the province's work of returning farmland to forests, not to mention whether it is time now, even if the money needed for returning farmland to forests in a city in Jiangcheng City is probably more than tens of billions, this is not an obvious joke.
"I don't do it...... I really have a weak heart to do this, God, I have to agree, the people of the whole province have not drowned me with a mouthful of foam, and they will not do it. Xiao Yang said categorically.
Xia Xue also looked at her father complainingly: "Dad, aren't you giving Xiao Yang a trick, this kind of thing is thankless for the government to do, you let him be a private company boss to do it, what if something happens?"
Xia Dazhi's rejection of Xiao Yang was expected, but he was not mentally prepared for his daughter's fierce words, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Girls outward, girls outward, Xiao Yang, listen to me explain to you." ”
