Looking at Qi Tianxiang's straight and thin back, Feng Juncai's heart was full of mixed tastes, and it was like a fish in his throat, as if something was blocked in his heart, and he couldn't breathe sullenly. [Ran^Text^Library] The conversation between Qi Tianxiang and Xiang Youzhi just now sounded like a knife to his heart. It should be said that Qi Tianxiang still gave him face, and he didn't say a word too heavy from beginning to end, didn't hold on to environmental problems, and didn't even blame, but as the leader of Heyang County, Qi Tianxiang deliberately left him aside, which was an attitude in itself and a silent condemnation. But at the last moment, Qi Tianxiang's eyes, a joking word, clearly conveyed a clear message to everyone, Qi Tianxiang regarded him as his own person, and he still had an inconvenient relationship to say, did not treat him as an outsider, of course, there is no need to be particularly polite or exquisite, often a look, an inconsequential word, everything is expressed. This is not as simple as 'slapping the day and then giving the heavenly dates', it is at best just a pediatric coaxing child, and a leader can do it. Qi Tianxiang takes a higher-level way of enveloping, giving you a dismount, and then giving you a surprise or hope, everything looks natural and traceless, the key depends on how you understand and perform, do well and become a person in the circle, do not do well and calculate the old and new accounts together, this is the so-called political wisdom, the more high-level leaders, the more skillful they can use this means, or strategy.

Sitting in the car, Feng Juncai still had a feeling of panic, and kept reminding himself that every step he took down had to cheer up, and he was 120,000 points careful, Qi Tianxiang was not the previous secretary of the municipal party committee Longjiang, the city government and means were much higher, and he had to be cautious.

returned to the clean and long county and township road, the road was still dark and empty, and the street trees were still standing on both sides of the road like a salute, but Qi Tianxiang's mood had changed, no longer so clean and elegant, but became heavy, maybe it was the luxurious wedding he had just seen, maybe it was the smoke and dust, the sewage of the river, or the land that had been hardened and the corn that was facing extinction, it seemed to have an impact, and it seemed to have both.

Although the work of provincial capitals can be focused on stability and people's livelihood as a breakthrough, they can even try to change their thinking and development methods, reshape the mainstream values of society with great discussions, and improve the city's taste and influence. All these need to be done, and there is a need to do a good job, which is not only the requirement of urban people, but also the necessity of social transformation and upgrading. In the future, the competitiveness and radiation driving role of the central city will not be the height of the building or the size of the city, but the excellent living environment, the avant-garde of the city's ideas and ways of thinking, and even the excellence of the city's concept of life and humanistic environment. These are Qi Tianxiang realized very early, with the development and expansion of the city, the homogenization phenomenon is becoming more and more serious, high-rise buildings, traffic flow, crowds, almost every large and medium-sized city is the same problem, and surprisingly similar, it can be said that you can know the situation of other cities after looking at one. The size of the city is getting bigger and bigger, the population is expanding day by day, and all kinds of problems and contradictions in the environment, transportation, work, residence, and life will be the practical problems that plague the sustainable development of the city, and it is also an unavoidable realistic contradiction. If such a problem cannot be solved well, with the aggravation of life pressure and the deterioration of the living environment, it will inevitably bring about the spread of social anxiety. Therefore, the future development direction of the city must be to seek the improvement and enhancement of the human environment, to seek a change in lifestyle, or leisure, or livable, or to become the birthplace of thought and culture, which is not a few parks, a few places to visit the holy place can be changed, and the hope of combining the political and cultural center and the economic center into one can only be a dream, a kind of mirage that we desperately want to get.

The positioning of the city should have its own ideas, as well as a clear direction, these are Qi Tianxiang has been thinking for a long time, but also to Hezhou since taking office repeatedly thinking, in view of the special urban location of the provincial capital city of Hezhou, how to give full play to the huge political and cultural function of the city, highlight the unique advantages of the provincial capital, out of a different urban development path, this is a serious topic in front of him, but also no matter how can not avoid the problem. But at the same time, he also understands very well that the distance between the idea or ideal and the reality is not something that he can ignore at will, let alone cross it at will, after all, he is no longer a young scholar full of fearless spirit and full of vitality, nor is he a young man who can ignore the beauty of his ideals, but a sensible middle-aged man, and more importantly, the head of a provincial capital city, who should have his own path to realize his ideals, or have his own wisdom to control his impulses.

This is not only Qi Tianxiang's own reason, but also a sober understanding, after all, reality does not allow him to imagine excessively, and the city does not allow him to practice arbitrarily, and the resistance not only comes from the city itself, but also from the colleagues of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, but also from the major policies of the provincial party committee and the provincial government. No one will let a provincial capital city only become a political and cultural center, let alone give up the goal of economic development, and the huge size and operation of the city is not a sudden brake can be stopped, a steering wheel can turn around, tens of thousands of square kilometers of area area, more than 7 million urban people, political, economic, cultural, social, people's livelihood, all aspects need his rigorous management and flexible coordination ability, all need not only patience, confidence, but also need sufficient courage, but also some political wisdom.

The future is beautiful, and the blueprint can be infinitely better, but the reality in front of Qi Tianxiang is not so beautiful, and even a little cold, and he can only put aside the reconstruction of culture and thought, as well as mainstream values, for the time being, and seriously start from firewood, rice, oil, salt, and start from the foundation of people's livelihood, and the foundation and top priority of people's livelihood can only be agriculture, which is a problem for rural areas and farmers.

Compared with urban construction, as well as culture, education, medical care, consumption and other fields, agriculture, rural areas, peasant issues are not only related to the foundation of the city, but also related to social stability and development. Although Sannong is a little far away from his life, it is the place he wants to know and know the most.

Looking at the "three rural" issues, Heyang County is naturally the first choice, and in the regional layout of the entire Hezhou City, the agriculture of Heyang County has both traditional and practical significance. The counties and cities under the jurisdiction of Hezhou City are all located on the north bank of the Lingshui River, and only Heyang County is located in the south of Lingshui, bordering Qinghe City and on the alluvial plain of the Lingshui River. Originating from the Lingshan Mountain Range, the Lingshui River meanders and flows, the clear spring water and the fertile vegetation of the Lingshan Mountain like a green forest, are partly brought to the river basin, Qinghe City and Heyang County are more geographical advantages, occupy the unique conditions, since ancient times, there is a 'Lingshan Lingshui rich Heyang's saying, in history, it is the same as Qinghe City, it is an important area of traditional agricultural production, and it is also a stable main grain producing area, which has a decisive significance to the Hezhou capital at that time.

Sometimes we have to admire the planning and institutional design of the feudal management system, the political and economic system under the rule of the dynasty, and the backward production and living conditions, which make living within the limits of income the most important criterion. The establishment and jurisdiction of prefectures and counties, the size and population of cities, are all based on the supply of grain, and the county towns are set up as large as the production capacity and the total number of people that can be carried, and they must have the production and supply of grain that can guarantee the necessities of life in a relatively close range, and the primary work that must be done must be done beyond the supply limit, or reclamation, or immigration. Otherwise, under the transportation conditions at that time, the difficulty of long-distance transportation of grain to ensure life is unimaginable, and all the infrastructure in ancient times, as well as the construction of large projects, except for the royal buildings, is necessary to ensure the production and transportation of grain, whether it is the Zheng He Canal in the Qin period, or Li Bing's Dujiangyan, even the Grand Canal built by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty with huge sums of money, are also necessary to ensure survival. This kind of survival wisdom comes from the practical consideration of social development, and it is also the political wisdom under the difficult conditions of feudal society.

It is a pity that this kind of political wisdom has not been retained much in today's local governments, and it seems that as long as it can be bought, it is not a problem, and the agricultural production input is large, the output is low, the time-consuming and laborious results are not great, and there are many problems and contradictions, so the energy poured into is obviously insufficient, and they are willing to invest time and financial resources into the construction of urban construction or parks with quick results and good benefits, and obvious political achievements. In the face of the rapid development of economic construction and investment in other counties and cities in Hezhou City, Heyang County, located on the south bank of the Lingshui River, seems to have been forgotten and left far behind. Although the Lingshui River Bridge was built a few years ago, it was much more convenient than in the past, but the diaphragm brought about by the poor traffic in Hezhou City for a long time has not been improved because of the repair of the bridge, and it is still a bottleneck restricting the economic development of Heyang County. In this regard, the consistent practice of successive Hezhou municipal party committees and governments has been to encourage Heyang County to vigorously develop agriculture and agricultural production and encourage it to take the road of agricultural industrialization, so as to cover up the dilemma of insufficient investment in Heyang's economy.

The economic situation of Heyang County has been at the bottom of the city for many years, although the output of grain and agriculture has always supported the agricultural scene of Hezhou City for many years, but in the minds of the city's cadres, it is a backward and bottom-of-the-line role, so the enthusiasm of the cadres in Heyang County is not high. Cadres who have ideas or methods are reluctant to come to Heyang County to take up their posts, and even if they are reluctant to take up their posts, they will leave when the length of their tenure or conditions are ripe, and it seems that staying one more day may delay more things.

Feng Juncai and Xiang Youzhi are special cases, one is the director of the Agricultural Bureau of Hezhou City, and the other is the vice president of Hezhou Agricultural College, but they both took the initiative to ask to come to Heyang County to serve, and they have been here for more than three years, and they have the energy to not leave without doing a career. Feng Juncai is nearly fifty years old, and he doesn't seem to care much about the promotion of his career, but on the contrary, he has the intention of hiding from leisure. Xiang Youzhi graduated from a well-known university with a master's degree in agriculture and was introduced to Hezhou City as a high-tech agricultural talent, and he was in his early thirties, which is the age of great achievements. But for more than three years, it seems to have been forgotten by the municipal party committee and the municipal government.

What was the reason why the two of them asked to come to Heyang County, Qi Tianxiang didn't know very well, but why they came knew something. The indifference and indifference of the local leaders aroused a heated discussion in public opinion after the media reported on the media, and even aroused the anger of the central leaders, who personally gave instructions to seriously deal with the responsibility of the dereliction of duty leaders. As a result, the secretary of the county party committee and the county magistrate were both dismissed on the spot, and at the time of the crisis, Feng Juncai and Xiang Youzhi took the initiative to request that they take up their posts in Heyang County unconditionally, and that they would never be in Hezhou if they did not change the face of Heyang's agriculture and rural work.

It has been a few years since the incident, but Qi Tianxiang still remembers it and remembers it vividly. Because of the incident that year, Qi Tianxiang, as the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, was also instructed by the angry Secretary Zhao Haonan to inquire into the matter, and to investigate the suspected corruption of the two dismissed officials. Later, in the investigation report submitted to the provincial party committee, he deliberately set aside space to talk about the feelings of the peasants and agriculture, and severely condemned the inaction of the functional departments, the indifference and prevarication of local government officials at all levels, and the trading of power for money.

The incident is not complicated, Dongheyan Village in Heyang County is a well-known vegetable planting village, with many years of tradition and experience in vegetable planting, and has always been the main vegetable basket supplier in Hezhou City. A vegetable farmer, according to their own experience and judgment, carries out moderate vegetable planting, self-production and self-sale, and the production and sales are booming, and the income is quite rich, becoming a well-off village in Heyang County. At that time, the secretary of the county party committee proposed and forcibly promoted the large-scale intensive order agriculture model in the name of helping farmers increase their incomes and upgrading their industries, and not only established a production headquarters and introduced high-profile leading enterprises in agricultural industrialization, but also forcibly required Dongheyan Village and more than a dozen surrounding villages to plant vegetables in a row in accordance with the requirements of the production headquarters.

Due to the intensive cultivation of leading agricultural enterprises, everything is invested and operated in accordance with the standards of the enterprise. First of all, the input of vegetable greenhouses, vegetable farmers used to build and use horseshoe-shaped brick greenhouses, all demolished on the grounds of poor lighting, organized by the company to organize construction, all replaced by the company to provide standardized aluminum alloy greenhouses, all glass, full transparent lighting mode, the internal drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation combined irrigation methods, insulation is also the application of air conditioning, to achieve a high technical standard. Whether it is the construction design, or the later management, it is indeed much better-looking, but also a lot more convenient, looking at the production environment better than many farmers' families, farmers who are used to growing food are very resistant, especially vegetable farmers have great opinions on this. In the face of the construction cost is more than ten times the input of the previous greenhouse, as well as the fact of growing vegetables with air conditioning, experienced vegetable farmers have deep doubts about the output efficiency, and the vegetable farmers who are kind enough to calculate and cost accounting can not see where the income is growing, which also has deep doubts about the company's motives.

However, the raw rice had already been cooked and matured, and the company still obediently signed a demanding contract, and according to the requirements of the company's technicians and experts, planted the pollution-free kale seeds provided by the company. Although the name is very awkward, everyone understands that the so-called kale is just cabbage, that is, cabbage, and the purchase price in the ripe season is only a pound of three pounds when it is the best, but the company has opened a guaranteed price of three yuan per kilogram, and unified purchase and transportation, such a good thing is tantamount to pie in the sky. However, the vegetable farmers in the villages along the Donghe River, as well as farmers in more than a dozen nearby villages, still carried out strict field management according to the guidance of the company's technicians, hoping to have a good harvest, repay bank loans, and recover the high inputs such as seeds, fertilizer, electricity, and irrigation.

Finally came to the harvest season, looking at the gratifying growth of cabbage in the greenhouse, no one could hide the excitement and excitement, but then found that the acquisition was not as promised, but the technician with the acquisition personnel, a greenhouse and a greenhouse review, not only with a tape measure specifications, with electronic scales to weigh the tree, and the leaf color and tightness of the vegetables have strict requirements, a greenhouse can meet the standard, that is, a few cabbage, people in accordance with the contract to pay the price of three yuan per kilogram, But in the face of the remaining cabbage, the vegetable farmers wanted to cry without tears.

In the face of the doubts and dissatisfaction of the vegetable farmers, people took out the contract to explain the terms one by one, the attitude was peaceful and cordial, it seemed that they were more anxious, they could not fulfill the contract signed with supermarkets in Beijing, Shanghai and other big cities, and would face huge fines, compared to the loss of more than 100,000 yuan per vegetable farmer, the company's loss was greater, almost a catastrophe.

The result was cruelly placed in front of them, which was tantamount to a thunderbolt, and the shocked vegetable farmers watched the cabbage growing day by day, slowly missing the harvest period, and even slowly rotting in the ground, worried but unable to do anything. At the beginning, some vegetable farmers were still actively helping themselves, pulling cabbage to sell everywhere, but with the arrival of the maturity period, especially the daily cabbage production of more than a dozen villages around the village, not only did not sell, but the price also fell all the way from the triangle money, and finally no one cared about three cents a pound, so I had to watch the cabbage rot in the ground.

Faced with hundreds of thousands of yuan in debt, many vegetable farmers don't know what to do. In order to upgrade the vegetable planting industry and increase farmers' incomes, and to increase the burden on farmers, the county leaders instructed the county rural credit cooperatives to take full loans to pay for the construction costs, and to sign loan contracts with farmers in the form of credit, and the repayment method was paid by the output of the field, and the insufficient part was repaid year by year, with a short term of three years and a long period of ten years, and the farmers mortgaged their homesteads or houses.

Helpless vegetable farmers are desperate, have to the township to ask for help, the township government said that there is nothing to do, this work from beginning to end by the county set up '10,000 acres of pollution-free ecological vegetable planting base command' to advance the whole process, the township is just to transfer personnel to assist in mobilization, after the end of the work command has been disbanded, the county units have also returned to the original unit, and know the inside of the township leaders are not afraid to manage, the county agricultural bureau and the investment bureau, the vegetable office between each other, several functional bureaus and committees are accused of each other, No one wants to get into the specifics of this.

The dialogue between the county magistrate and the vegetable farmers is basically the complaint of the county magistrate to the news unit, not only the difficulties in promoting the actual work, the difficulties in introducing funds and projects, but also the bad impact of the company's huge losses on the image of the county, as well as the negative significance of the county's future investment promotion work, and more importantly, the actual bankruptcy of the rural credit cooperatives, and the difficulty in recovering a large number of defaulted loans, which actually dragged down the overall economic situation of the county. The county magistrate's explanation is known to the news media, but the attitude of the county party secretary is more direct, not only to safeguard the interests of the enterprise, but also repeatedly emphasized the issue of farmers' credit education, requiring vegetable farmers to act in accordance with the spirit of the contract, everything must be subject to the contract, willing to gamble and lose, can not all the responsibility to the company, to the county party committee, the county government, whoever smears Heyang County, will be dealt with in accordance with laws and regulations.

After several petitions, and with such a result, Liu Fugui, an old tea farmer in the village along the East River, could no longer support it, and was the most active executor at the beginning, and assisted the headquarters to do the ideological work of many families in the village, planted vegetables for decades, and was highly respected in the village. In order to win the trust of the villagers, but also to set an example, Liu Fugui suddenly built his own and his son's two greenhouses, and took out the money to build a house for his youngest son to marry his daughter-in-law, and borrowed a lot of money, the first one completed the renovation of the greenhouse, and also appeared on the county's TV. Now not only can the foreign debts not be repaid, but also the loan of nearly 200,000 yuan owed to the rural credit cooperative, and almost every day has to face the accusations and white eyes of the whole village, the wife has been lying on the bed with shame, and the marriage of the youngest son has also been blown away. Now facing the cold face of the county magistrate and secretary who was enthusiastic and encouraging at the beginning, I really don't know how to face the future, thinking about the heavy debt, thinking about the white eyes of the whole village, and finally I can't stand it anymore, and a bottle of pesticide makes him fall in front of the county party committee and the county government.

The vegetable farmer who committed suicide by drinking pesticides immediately became a hot topic in the media and the Internet, and within a few days, not only local media, but also reporters from Beijing and overseas media gathered in Heyang County, until the anger of the central leadership and the investigation stage were launched, and the inside story slowly surfaced.

In fact, every aspect of the incident from beginning to end, whether it is planned or organized and implemented, is a well-designed scam. The so-called leading enterprises of agricultural industrialization are simply nothing, in fact, they have taken a fancy to the vegetable planting income of the villages along the East River and the surrounding villages, and the brother-in-law of the county party secretary contacted the younger brother of the county magistrate to collude with a trading company in Beijing, and joined forces with several large supermarkets to enter Heyang County with the concept of agricultural supermarket docking, and vigorously promote and publicize the '10,000 acres of pollution-free green vegetable planting base' under the guise of leading enterprises in agricultural industrialization, and promote the advanced business model of supermarkets, companies and farmers. And with high standards of construction and scientific management, it provides high-quality pollution-free green vegetables for urban high-consumption groups, comprehensively improves people's quality of life, and ultimately realizes the purpose of marketing to the world and benefiting the people of Heyang County. In the planning and implementation stage of the scam, interlocking traps were designed to draw vegetable farmers closer to the trap step by step. The first is the renovation of greenhouses, with interest-free loans issued by rural credit cooperatives, followed by the provision of expensive seeds and special fertilizers, and the setting of unattainable purchase thresholds to complete the purpose of collecting money and fraud. Due to the extreme development of the incident, their dream has been shattered, in fact, the so-called '10,000 acres of pollution-free green vegetable planting base' is just a disguise, the first step of the whole scam, and the following steps are the real purpose. Due to the huge losses in the first year, vegetable farmers will be firmly caught in the scam, and the planting and purchase will be carried out in full accordance with their plans, and they can firmly control the variety and scale of planting, and they can even occupy the land of vegetable farmers free of charge, and they can take advantage of the lack of actual income of vegetable farmers, the pressure of loan repayment, and the use of the name of new rural transformation, and the rural credit cooperatives will come forward to purchase or recycle the homesteads of vegetable farmers according to law, carry out real estate commercial development, and grab greater benefits.

With Liu Fugui's death, the scam came to an abrupt end, and the secretary of the county party committee, the county magistrate, as well as the secretary's brother-in-law and the younger brother of the county magistrate, were severely punished by the law for accepting huge bribes and fraud. The incident also faded out of the public's memory with the passage of time, but in Qi Tianxiang's mind, it has lasted for a long time, especially since he is now the decision-maker of the city, the scam that once appeared in Heyang County, as well as the incidents of pit farmers, injury to farmers, and harm to farmers, always give him a warning, resolutely not to have such a thing, let alone any form of conceptual hype, which is also part of the reason why he first stopped in Heyang County, he wants to take a serious look and carefully distinguish the truth.
