Chapter 102: The Big Day (I)
At nine o'clock in the morning, the radio loudspeaker of the whole village sounded the audition of "Hey, Hey, Hey", and it seemed that the secretary of "Lao Jiu" was really going to make a speech. "Good morning, folks. This opening sentence was added by Liu Yuyong for him.
"Starting at half past nine in the morning, the staff of the village committee will go to each house to distribute documents on the planting of dried fruit trees and give a brief explanation. If there is really no one at home, the staff will leave a notice on the door, and wait for the family to come back to the village committee to collect documents. Considering that everyone may have questions about the content of the document, at 9 a.m. the day after tomorrow, the village committee compound will hold a collective consultation meeting to solve everyone's doubts about this document, and all villagers can come to ask their own questions, and whether to participate or not is entirely voluntary. ”
"Lao Jiu" is "Lao Jiu", this is his first radio speech in the village since he took office, and the old folks in Dayangtun sound exactly the same style as him in dealing with people and things -- they originally thought that he would start with "today is a big day in our village" as a kind of broadcast made by the village officials in the past, as if it were the Chinese New Year or the people's congress held in the village. But this time, I didn't hear the high-sounding clichés that grinded my ears into calluses, and I didn't feel the usual and domineering official tone of previous years. Chang Jiucheng's manuscript read the words on the manuscript in front of him in one breath, and suddenly felt a burst of excitement, his mouth turned to the microphone, looked at the dark yellow wall of the broadcast studio, and continued to say loudly: "Folks, the project of planting dried fruits on today's document has a lot to do with our village's poverty alleviation and prosperity. I hope that you can take a serious look at what is written on the document, and come to the village committee the day after tomorrow to ask questions and suggestions, and let's strive to do a good job in this matter together, and make our village rich together!"
This improvisation touched Chang Jiucheng himself, turned off the microphone, he put the speech aside, hung his head and lay on the desk for a long time, and took several deep breaths, but he still couldn't completely suppress the surging emotions. Unfortunately, his heartfelt words were released through an old-fashioned loudspeaker with poor sound, and the tone was a little distorted. Except for Liu Yuyong, his son-in-law, who was going to the villager's house and had previously sorted out the speech for him, the others were not particularly moved after listening to it. At this time, everyone's interest was still manifested in the judgment and praise of the speech style of "Lao Jiu", plus the curiosity about the "planting dried fruits" project he said. As a result, people who had nothing to do stayed at home and waited for the village officials to come to the door.
Following the sound of the village party committee's announcement, Li Jinming, Liu Yuyong, Chang Xiaoshan, Wang Shunyang, and other senior and junior officials who had eaten official meals in the village committee all dispersed out of the village committee compound, rushed to the villagers' homes, and knocked on the doors in an orderly manner. There were no leaders to inspect the village, and there were no reporters from the official television station to shoot the film, and although there were rumors for a long time, the villagers were still a little surprised that the village committee had adopted this method of doing things without these two conditions. You must know that in the past, as long as there was an official in the village committee, even if he had a little power, he could use it to show off in front of the villagers. They are holding chicken feathers as arrows, and they are obviously just small officials, who are commanded by their superiors and are tired and tired, but they have to deliberately hold up the "official" stand in front of the people, showing that their status as civil servants is one level higher than that of the "white dings". In the past 15 or 6 years, it seems that in Dayangtun Village, the villagers have come to their door to beg them for everything, and why did they have to condescend to take care of them? Today, this trend, which is becoming more and more natural, has finally shown signs of being interrupted. Seeing these sesame officials who used to see themselves in the village committee compound with their heads held high and politely knocked on the door and came in, the villagers were not flattered, but they were also much more comfortable in their hearts. Some of the once arrogant village officials did not have a shelf, and some took the shelf, and showed a more cordial attitude to varying degrees, so that the villagers had a more or less good impression of them, and then they also had a good impression of the "planting dried fruits" project they promoted.
In order to get to the point as soon as possible and shorten the time for explanation, the village official reminded them that they could read the key parts first, and then read the rest of the parts in detail, and if they had any questions, they could ask them at the consultation meeting the day after tomorrow. In advance, Chang Jiucheng explained to all the household personnel the most important thing that must be clearly explained to the villagers, that is, the "peach" that Liu Yuyong wants to cover.
The villagers followed the prompts and quickly turned to the page titled "Planting Responsibility Areas and Their Income Distribution". It is written in as plain language as possible:
1. The mountainous land with walnut trees and apricot trees will be divided into a block of planting responsibility area in mu, and the village committee will come forward to contract the planting responsibility area to every household in the village. As for the responsibility area of a few acres per household, each household shall voluntarily apply according to its own labor level, and encourage farmers with sufficient labor force to package more, and farmers with limited labor force to contract less. In order to coordinate the distribution of planting responsibility areas and ensure their reasonable distribution, the village committee will review and negotiate with each family's application, and the agreement can be signed after the two parties reach an agreement.
2. The village committee has obtained a sum of money from the county, which will be used as a subsidy of 1,000 yuan per mu per year for the peasant households that have contracted land.
3. At the beginning of the development of the project, the dried fruits produced in each planting responsibility area will be purchased by the sellers contacted by the village committee, and the planting companies will receive planting income according to the purchase volume and purchase price. After a period of time, if the grower believes that he has the ability to operate independently, he can apply to contact other sellers independently, and after approval, the planting can cooperate with his own sellers, and he also needs to bear his own risk.
4. If, during the term of the agreement, the growers feel that they are unable to operate the area of the existing area of responsibility, they may apply to the village committee to reduce their own planting area and subcontract the area they are unable to cultivate to other farmers. After the expiration of the agreement, the village committee will inspect the planting results of each grower, and for the growers who have a large number of trees in their planting responsibility area died or the production and sales of dried fruits have been seriously reduced due to poor management, the village committee will consider adjusting the area of their responsibility area in the new agreement, and recommend that they reduce the area of their responsibility area by way of persuasion, and assign the responsibility area that is difficult to operate benignly to other growers who are well managed......
After these four points, there are still a number of articles, which Chang Jiucheng and Liu Yuyong painstakingly drafted, and like other specific provisions of the entire project, were not voted on until yesterday afternoon's extraordinary meeting of the village committee. At that time, everyone, including the old village chief, silently appreciated it, and they all sighed that the two of them handled the key parts of the matter carefully enough. Although the cadres knew all the details of the project, after a rare and verbose summary by the secretary of the "old nine" at the end of the meeting, it was not a few minutes before the end of the meeting, and they had to rush home to eat after work, and after eating, they had to hurry up to visit and prepare for classes from door to door tomorrow, even if they wanted to spread the newly learned news from the meeting.
I have to say that the detailed rules of the project proposed by Chang Jiucheng Weng's son-in-law are very thorough. Contrary to Lao Jiu's expectations, the document approved by the county not only agreed to his plan to grow dried fruits, but even met his requirements for the scope of planting - in addition to the three mountains surrounding Dayangtun, the two mountains that were not "claimed" by other villages along the road into the village were also zoned into the dried fruit planting area of Dayangtun Village, so that the plantable area of Dayangtun dried fruits could be increased. Chang Jiucheng and Liu Yuyong both understand that although the area is large, it is man-made, and only by mobilizing the enthusiasm of the villagers can the barren mountains grow heavy fruits. To this end, they have developed a program that places equal emphasis on rewards and incentives. The annual subsidy per mu is not enough to guarantee the minimum amount, and anyone who just points to this 1,000 yuan will not even be able to pay the contract fee for the responsibility area when the agreement expires - even if the project documents stipulate that the contract fee can be paid in a lump sum in the last year of the agreement period. Liu Yuyong included the profiles of the sellers who have established cooperative relationships in the document, all of which are serious business companies. He is sure that the large-scale planting of dried fruits has a low starting threshold for the villagers of Dayangtun, and it is not difficult to master the necessary skills, and in the case of guaranteed sales channels, hard work, more production and more sales, it is expected to obtain higher returns, and the exchanges and comparisons between growers will stimulate their enthusiasm for labor, and farmers with outstanding planting and sales performance will naturally become a leading role model in the minds of everyone. Lao Jiu also plans to announce at the consultation meeting the day after tomorrow that the village committee will invite experts to provide professional planting guidance to growers, and introduce a certain number of walnut and apricot saplings to be planted on the slopes of relatively sparsely populated trees in the area of responsibility.
Chang Xiaoshan and Wang Shunyang ran to the east and west, and they were so busy that their brains were sweating, but they were willing. The two of them were Chang Jinzhu's minions - Chang Xiaoshan was also Chang Jinzhu's distant nephew - but they didn't get much benefit from Chang Jinzhu's family for many years, usually other people ate meat, they took two mouthfuls of soup, and they were always whispered by the villagers pointing at the back of the backbone. Chang Jiucheng took office, they were recommended by the old village chief to join the village committee, originally just wanted to eat, but the "old Jiu" secretary was bent on making Dayangtun reborn, they saw the opportunity to follow him to benefit the whole village, so as to change their minds and eliminate their notoriety, so they were particularly cooperative with this work.
Li Jinming was responsible for informing Li Sanlaizi. He expected that this document would not even be as good as wiping paper in the hands of Li Sanlaizi, but one was to handle official affairs and do his duty, and the other was to "grow dried fruits" to get rich The project was for the benefit of everyone in the village, and he also included Li Sanlaizi, so he should be treated equally. "Bang bang bang", Li Jinming knocked on the door of his house, but no one answered. "Li Sanlaizi, are you at home? I'm Jin Ming!" After waiting for a while, Li Jinming knocked again and shouted twice, but there was still no one. He's not at home? I didn't see him in the village just now, and I went outside the village? No, didn't he? He rarely went out. There was no car to sit on, and he had to walk with a lot of effort on that leg. Li Jinming thought about it for a long time, but he could only make sure that Li Sanlaizi didn't stay at home, and he couldn't figure out where he went. He had no choice but to post the notice on the door and turn to leave. He didn't look behind the house, and he didn't notice that the log used to set up the barricade was missing on the way into the village in the distance.
