Chapter 761: Three visits to the thatched house and finally see the monk
Back at Yizhi Mountain, both Fang Zheng and Red Boy had insomnia.
The red boy was homesick, lying on the roof and looking at the stars in the sky, muttering something...... The squirrel crouched on the side, followed by looking up, in a daze.
Fang Zheng was lying in the meditation room, looking at the ceiling, and his mind thought of the scene he saw when he first beat the drum. Parents...... He has it too. But where were they? Were they sad to let him go at that time? After all these years, did they miss him? Probably not, otherwise, they would have come to see him.
Thinking of this, Fangzheng's heart was also a little sour, and he subconsciously touched a photo, which was a photo of a one-finger Zen master, the old monk smiled very kindly, the face of the one-finger Zen master on the photo was not as wrinkled as later, and his eyebrows were also black, and his smile was very good-looking.
Unconsciously, Fang Zheng fell asleep holding a photo of a Zen master.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, the bells and drums rang in unison, as far as Yizhi Village, as far as Songwu County, all the people listened to this sound, got up one after another, went to work, and worked hard, which has become everyone's habit.
After beating the bell and drum, I returned to the courtyard, closed the gate, and cleaned the Buddhist hall. After cleaning the temple and having breakfast, Fang Zheng was stunned when he opened the temple gate!
I saw a man standing at the door, with a lofty instrument, not angry and arrogant between his eyebrows, obviously, this is a person who has been in a high position for a long time, either rich or expensive.
Before Fang Zheng could salute, a smile first appeared on the man's majestic face, and he said with a smile: "Abbot Fangzheng, it's really difficult to see you once." Let me introduce myself, my name is Qi Dongsheng, and I am the parent official of our Songwu County for the time being. ”
Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, good guy, doesn't this county magistrate sleep lazy? He came to block the door so early, what a big hatred is this? Glancing at Qi Dongsheng, his hands were empty, he didn't bring knives and guns, and there was no armed police guard behind him.
Fang Zheng clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, it turned out to be the Qi benefactor, and the poor monk is polite." ”
Although he is the county magistrate, he is a person outside the square, no matter what kind of chief you are, he is called a donor. As for the salute, he saluted everyone he saw.
County Magistrate Qi obviously didn't care about this, and said hello to the red boy who had just come out of the backyard, and then said, "Abbot Fangzheng, do you have time to walk together?"
Fang Zheng thought for a while and said, "Then let's go." ”
One finger temple is too small, not enough for two people to walk, so the two of them stepped on the early morning mist, walked on the top of the mountain, quite a kind of walking on the clouds, looking at it from a distance, like an immortal in the mortal.
"Abbot Fangzheng, there were three visits to the thatched house in ancient times, and I came to the temple just three times. County Magistrate Qi said with a smile.
Fang Zheng said: "The monks don't speak, the donor came twice, and the poor monks were in the monastery, but they didn't come out to meet." ”
"Uh......" County Magistrate Qi was stunned, after so many years in politics, most of the people he saw were crying and hiding their smiles, at least they were smiling in front of them, and they had good words one after another. He hasn't seen anything like this, a mouth, I'm in the back, I just can't see you, what's the matter!
County Magistrate Qi smiled bitterly: "The abbot is really straightforward. ”
Fang Zheng shook his head and said: "No, the poor monk just doesn't want to lie, and he is easy to be struck by lightning." Besides, there is no need to go around the course of what we are talking about today. Donor, do you want to develop Yizhi Mountain into a tourist attraction and attract tourists?"
County Magistrate Qi was stunned for a moment...... County Magistrate Qi nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I won't hide it, so let's just say it." To be honest, our Songwu County is too poor, it can be said that there is nothing to want, but what you don't want is complete. The scenic spots and industrial heritage that you want are the same, and the poor people who don't want them are blooming everywhere. If you don't want to break the situation, you can only continue. I don't say it's for the country and the people, even if it's for my own political achievements, I want to do something while I'm young and go up. I have been in Songwu County for two months, and in the past two months, I have visited all the villages and towns in Songwu County. Some places do have some nice scenery with development potential. Moreover, the infrastructure is far from being as good as that of Yizhishan, and the development cost is too great. ”
Fang Zheng didn't say anything, and continued to listen. It was also the first time he had heard such a big official as the county magistrate say such straightforward things. Perhaps for many people, the county magistrate is also a sesame mung bean official, but as an ordinary person, or a person living in the county, the county magistrate is really a big official! At least in the matter of this acre and three points of land, the county magistrate's words are still very effective.
Later, the county magistrate Qi told the situation of the nearby Hongyan Village, Xue Village and other villages in detail, and Fang Zheng was startled by this. He grew up in this area, and it can be said that he knows many places and villages very well. Because of this, what the county magistrate Qi said shocked him even more! Because what the county magistrate said was not general, but about the detailed situation of each village! From the area of cultivated land, the yield of crops, the height of the mountain peaks, to the relative elites in that village, and the large agricultural households, they can all be accurately stated.
It can be seen that County Magistrate Qi really didn't say anything big before, he didn't know much about Songwu County, but he also knew most of it.
The county magistrate who can work hard in this area, Fang Zheng has seen it for the first time, and he has to admit that this guy really wants to do something practical. But the question is, is Yizhi Mountain really suitable for tourism development?
So Fang Zheng asked this question.
As a result, this problem seemed to open the key to the chatterbox of the county magistrate of Qi, and analyzed it to Fang Zheng from all angles, and the final result was that although it was not the best and the most ideal, at present, there was indeed an article that could be done here! And it was a win-win situation for the temple and Songwu County. The county magistrate of Qi is responsible for sending people out to carry out propaganda, and they don't charge a cent for the incense money of tourists, and they don't even charge tickets for going up the mountain!
When Fang Zheng heard this, he asked suspiciously: "No tickets, what does the government earn?"
The county magistrate laughed and said: "When tourists come, they always have to eat, drink, and sleep, right? When they leave, they always have to bring some souvenirs, right? Isn't this just money? The common people have made money, and we have collected taxes, isn't this a win-win situation? As for the maintenance of the temple, I have already discussed it with Secretary Liu, and I will apply for special repair funds for the Yizhi Temple." And these funds also include the cost of repairing mountain roads, so that you basically don't need to pay for the local government, and you can also stimulate the economy. Of course, if Yizhi Mountain can become a big scenic spot in the future, we don't mind charging some admission fees. ”
Fang Zheng looked at the smiling and happy county magistrate Qi, and asked: "Master Qi, you have also seen the poor monk on this mountain, I'm afraid it can't accommodate many people." Besides, the mountain roads are steep and narrow, and it is dangerous to have too many people in rainy and snowy weather, so are you sure you want to make this place bigger?"
"This is a problem, but as long as you agree, we will find a way to solve it. County Magistrate Qi said very seriously.
