Chapter 750: Pollution of the Red Water River
Two days later, when Li Tianyi received the clues from Zhuge Tong for the previous two days, Li Tianyi's eyes couldn't help but narrow, and two sharp divine lights shot out of his eyes.
Li Tianyi pointed to one of the companies and said: "Zhuge Tong, you send documents to the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau through the municipal government office, and ask them to immediately go to Sitong Group to carry out an investigation, and summarize the results of the investigation and rectification within two days."
Two days later, Li Tianyi held a report document submitted by the Jiangcheng Environmental Protection Bureau in his hand, and Li Tianyi's eyes became more and more fierce when he looked at this document.
From this document, Li Tianyi noted that the Jiangcheng Environmental Protection Bureau does not seem to have paid attention to the pollution problem of Sitong Group at all. In their documents, the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau of the Sitong Group's pollution problem characterization is very simple, that Sitong Group does have a pollution problem, but this pollution problem is not serious, but the enterprise in the production process of occasional pollution standards, the reason for this phenomenon is because some of the company's production equipment has been aged, the Environmental Protection Bureau also mentioned in the document that the current Sitong Group is actively through the upgrading of equipment to improve the pollution problems.
As for the pictures and videos reported by the masses that Li Tianyi asked Zhuge Tong to hand over to the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau's response was even more understated, and they described it in the document as follows, none of these reported pictures and videos are real, and even some of them are pollution sites from other enterprises in other provinces, which are taken as the pollution sites of Sitong Group, which is a typical slanderous behavior, and even the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau also said that it hopes that Vice Mayor Li can tell the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau that the people who sent these pictures and videos will be told by the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, and they will investigate these peopleγ
Li Tianyi was angry by the behavior of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, he sneered, directly slammed the document on the table, then looked at Zhuge Tong, and said: "Zhuge Tong, prepare immediately, bring a high-definition camera, we will personally go to Sitong Group to investigate, I want to see how much of this document submitted by the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau is true." β
Hearing that Li Tianyi was going to Sitong Group to carry out on-site research, Zhuge Tong's expression became solemn, and he said: "Boss, I went to privately arrange the Sitong Group you said in the past two days, I think the current problem of Sitong Group is beyond your imagination, if we go directly like this, I am afraid there will be some unexpected dangers." β
After listening to this, Li Tianyi not only did not be afraid, but sneered and said: "If I, the deputy mayor of Jiangcheng City and the director of the Public Security Bureau, don't even dare to go to the pollution site to conduct investigations, then I, the deputy mayor and the director of the Public Security Bureau, will be too cowardly." β
After speaking, Li Tianyi stood up, called for casual clothes, and walked out directly.
Seeing this, Zhuge Tong could only follow behind Li Tianyi and walk out.
Zhuge Tong drove the car to Nantong County, 30 kilometers away from Jiangcheng City.
Sitong Group stands in the east of Nantong County, between Jiangcheng City and Nantong County, next to the Hongshui River, the most important river in Jiangcheng City.
When there was still a kilometer away from Sitong Group, Li Tianyi asked Zhuge Tong to park the car on the side of the road, stepped out of the car and came to the Hongshui River, looking down at the rushing river in the Hongshui River, his eyes gradually became scarlet.
Li Tianyi noticed that the water of the Hongshui River was now as red as its name, and when he looked up, 200 meters away from them, there was a farmer pumping water from the Hongshui River to irrigate the farmland on the roadside.
Li Tianyi walked over, came to the old farmer who was smoking a cigarette and watching the river water irrigate the fields, took out a diamond Chinese red from his arms and handed it to the old farmer, and said: "Uncle, I look at the color of the river is not quite right, is it true that the water of this red water river has always been red?"
The old farmer saw that Li Tianyi's cigarette was good, so he snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, took Li Tianyi's cigarette, and Li Tianyi immediately lit it for the old farmer.
After the old farmer took a hard sip, he looked at Li Tianyi and said, "Young man, you are a foreigner." It's normal that you don't know. The water of this red water river was not red before, but crystal clear. β
Hearing this, Li Tianyi's face became solemn, and he asked, "Then why is the river now turning red and black? And standing on the bank, you can smell a pungent smell?"
When the old farmer heard this, his face showed a look of grief and indignation, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it because of the Sitong Group that killed a thousand knives that lost its conscience?"
Since Sitong Group came to our Jiangcheng City to invest and build a factory ten years ago, the original crystal clear river water has gradually become more and more turbid, more and more black, more and more red, and gradually became more consistent with his name.
But do you know that the origin of the name of the Hongshui River is because during the Anti-Japanese War, it used to be the rear base of the Red Army, and this river used to be called the Huangshui River, but later because the people loved the Red Army more, it was changed to the Hongshui River, in order to commemorate the great contributions made by the people in the Red Army as the base area.
But now ......"
Speaking of this, the old peasant's eyes became a little moist, and his voice was a little choked and said: " But now, the Hongshui River is still that name, but the clear bottom of the fish and shrimp full of the situation has disappeared, in the past, the people on both sides of our bank relied on fishing and shrimp farming can be worry-free, but now, young people can't stand the harsh environment here and go to the big city to work, only we old people are unwilling to leave their homeland, can only guard the dirty river and withered fields, one day is a day to live. β
Li Tianyi watched as the water pumped up from the Hongshui River through the pumping machine flowed into the fields and irrigated on the slightly withered Zhuang seedlings whose vitality was not very tenacious.
Li Tianyi pointed to the red and black river water that overflowed from the ground and asked, "Uncle, can the grain grown from the crops irrigated with this filthy river water really be edible?"
The old farmer sighed, shook his head, and said, "Eat, of course you can't eat." β
Li Tianyi showed a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Since you can't eat it, why do you still have to farm?"
The old farmer smiled bitterly and said, "Young man, you said that if I don't farm, what will I eat and drink?"
Li Tianyi said: "But the crops that grow in this field must not be eaten." β
"Of course I won't eat what I grow in my own field, but I can sell it, sell it, and then go to the city to buy ready-made grain to eat," the old farmer said. β
Li Tianyi said: "Isn't the grain in the city suitable for the grain made from the grain around you?"
The old farmer said with a wry smile: "Even if it is, I don't have a choice, not to mention that the only polluted places are the grain along our Hongshui River, and the other places far away from the Sitong Group are not polluted, and the grain in those places is still edible." So, we have a good chance of eating food that is not contaminated. β
Hearing this, Li Tianyi felt that his heart was dripping blood, and every word that the old farmer said was like a steel needle, stabbing Li Tianyi's heart fiercely.
At this moment, Li Tianyi has a more thorough understanding of the sentence that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets.
He looked at the wide river, the rushing waves, and thought to himself, if this river can be properly managed, just this wide river can make a lot of tourism and related industrial projects, if orchards and vegetable picking gardens can be planted on both sides of the river, then the lives of these farmers will be qualitatively improved.
Poverty alleviation work is very difficult to say, but if we find the right way of thinking, it is not difficult to make the peasants rich, and the key lies in whether the politicians can really find the key nodes to help the peasants get rid of poverty and become rich.
Li Tianyi suddenly smiled, Wu Zhenglin took out the rural work and poverty alleviation work and environmental protection work together and handed it to himself, although it seemed to achieve the goal he wanted, in fact, after these three tasks were all in his own hands, they could form a perfect cycle, so that he could let go of his hands and promote these three tasks simultaneously, and these three tasks can complement each other.
Li Tianyi looked at the muddy tears flashing in the old peasant's eyes, infinite guilt rose in his heart, he looked at the old peasant and said: "Uncle, please rest assured, I dare to assure you that within three years, this river will definitely turn back to the crystal clear red water river before, no matter at any time, the heart of the Red Army, the heart of the Communist Party, will always be connected with the common people." β
After speaking, Li Tianyi stuffed the pack of cigarettes in his hand into the hands of the old farmer, and continued to walk towards the factory of Sitong Group with Li Tianyi.
The old farmer looked at the pack of cigarettes in his hand, looked at Li Tianyi and Zhuge Tong who walked with sonorous steps, although they were all dressed in casual clothes, but from Li Tianyi's words and behaviors, the old farmer felt a fresh and comfortable warm breeze.
The old peasant looked at Li Tianyi's back and shouted: "Young man, you are reporters, if you are reporters, you must not get close to the Sitong Group, the village cadres of the surrounding villages have already hooked up with the Sitong Group, as long as they find that the reporter comes to investigate the pollution problem of the Sitong Group, they will find a way to drive away or even detain the reporter, you must pay attention, these people's hearts can be black."
There were rumors before that a reporter came to the Sitong Group single-handedly to investigate, and then disappeared, and it is said that he was killed by the Sitong Group. β
Listening to the caring words from the old farmer behind him, Li Tianyi turned around and waved his hand to the old farmer, and said, "Uncle, don't worry, they don't dare to do anything to us." β
As he spoke, Li Tianyi and Zhuge Tong continued to walk forward.
When Li Tianyi and the others came to a distance of less than 300 meters from the Sitong Group, they stopped, and Li Tianyi noticed that on the bank of the river near the side of the Sitong Group, more than a dozen large trucks were pulling truckloads of ash with a strong pungent smell and dumping them towards the inner position on the bank of the river.
Truckloads of garbage were dumped on the banks of the river, and streams of black liquid flowed out of the garbage and converged into small streams into the river.
At this time, Zhuge Tong touched Li Tianyi, pointed to a thick drainage pipe not far away with his hand, and said, "Boss, have you seen it, there is a huge drainage pipe there." β
Li Tianyi looked in the direction of Zhuge Tong's finger, and saw that in the thick drainage pipe, the red sewage was continuous, and after entering the river, the surroundings were quickly dyed red.
