Chapter 148: Walking on Two Legs
Huo Yilu's words were very unexpected by Zhao Changfeng, Zhao Changfeng originally thought that Huo Yilu would come to the same activities as Lao Wang and Lao Qian.
"Township Chief Huo, don't always cry poor." Zhao Changfeng said: "I think Houhe Township is still very good!" As you said earlier, there is not a penny in Houhe Township's finances, I don't think it's like it, it's not like it! When Zhao Changfeng said this, he remembered that Lao Wang and Lao Qian were more generous than the other.
"Mayor, there's really no penny!" Huo Yilu said with a blank face: "Such a big thing, do I dare to lie to you?" ”
Zhao Changfeng knocked on the table with his fingers, groaned for a while, and said, "In this way, in the past two days, you should hurry up and count the disaster situation in Houhe Township and make a report." The disaster relief funds will definitely be allocated, but as for how much will be allocated, I can't guarantee it, after all, this is a city-wide disaster, and it is not just your Houhe Township that needs help. ”
"Thank you, Mayor! Makes you bother more! Huo Yilu said and looked at Zhao Changfeng, and when Zhao Changfeng said something, he was ready to get up and say goodbye.
Zhao Changfeng was in a very heavy mood, Houhe Township is also a well-known and wealthy township in Beibei City, but the gold mine has only been suspended for more than three months, and there is no penny in finance, and even the salaries of the township government staff are owed, which shows how much Houhe Township's financial dependence on the gold mine is. No wonder the Jockey Club would have worked so hard to protect the interests of the gold mine, in addition to the consideration of the personal interests of the Jockey Club, I am afraid there was also the consideration of the financial revenue of Houhe Township, right? Reminiscent of the situation in Beibei City from Houhe Township, as soon as the gold mine stopped, the city's finances were also stretched, although it was not as embarrassing as Houhe Township's finances, but it was also indispensable to demolish the east wall and make up for the west wall. It can be seen that both Houhe Township and Beibei City must take the road of diversified economic development. It would be very dangerous to pin all your hopes on the gold mining industry.
Thinking of this, Zhao Changfeng wanted to talk to someone, and Huo Yilu, the head of Houhe Township, was undoubtedly the most suitable person to talk to.
At this time, Liu Junkang pushed the door open, he didn't look at Huo Yilu, but walked straight to Zhao Changfeng's side, and said softly to Zhao Changfeng: "Mayor, it's not early." It's time for you to rest. ”
Huo Yilu hurriedly stood up and said, "Mayor." Excuse me. Delaying you for so long. I'm going back, so you can rest well. ”
"Not busy, not busy, you sit down first." Zhao Changfeng stretched out his hand and pressed down, Huo Yilu glanced at Liu Junkang in embarrassment, and then looked at Zhao Changfeng, and then sat down again next to the edge of the bed.
"Mayor ......," Liu Junkang pointed to his watch.
"Yes, I know." Zhao Changfeng smiled and said to Liu Junkang: "Junkang, pour a cup of tea for Township Chief Huo." ”
Liu Junkang obediently closed his mouth. The secretary is the person around the leader, and the people who work around the leader have an unwritten but everyone follows the rule, that is, to work beside the leader, generally do not give the leader staff advice, even if the staff advice is made, it can only be mentioned once. The reason is that because I work next to the leader, I have a special relationship with the leader. Leaders will inevitably pay less attention to the opinions or suggestions of the people around them. Therefore, it is enough for the staff officer to suggest mentioning it once, and it can completely play the role of a staff officer. If it is mentioned twice or three times, it is easy to shake the leader's determination and then affect the leader's decision-making.
Seeing Liu Junkang go over to pour tea, Huo Yilu hurriedly stood up, first said no, and then said that he would come. But Zhao Changfeng said: "Township Chief Huo." Sit down, I have something to ask you! Huo Yilu had no choice but to sit down. smiled embarrassedly at Liu Junkang.
"Township Chief Huo" Zhao Changfeng lit another cigarette and said slowly: "Do you have any ideas about the future development of Houhe Township?" ”
"Mayor, I have some ideas." Huo Yilu said a word, then turned his head and said to Liu Junkang, who put the tea in front of him: "Thank you." ”
Liu Junkang smiled and gestured to Zhao Changfeng, and Zhao Changfeng nodded: "Well, you go, there is nothing to do here." ”
After Liu Junkang withdrew, Zhao Changfeng turned his head and said to Huo Yilu: "Township Chief Huo, continue." ”
Huo Yilu continued the topic just now and said: "Mayor, I personally feel that Houhe Township can no longer follow the old road of relying only on underground gold resources. I have mentioned this suggestion to the Jockey Club Comrades before, but unfortunately it has not been approved by the Jockey Club Comrades. ”
Huo Yilu's thoughts coincided with Zhao Changfeng, but Zhao Changfeng deliberately asked: "Township Chief Huo, if you don't rely on underground gold resources, what should Houhe Township do?" You see, the gold mines have only been stopped for a few months, and the finances of Houhe Township have been unable to make ends meet, and they are on the verge of bankruptcy. ”
Huo Yilu heard that Mayor Zhao disagreed with his statement, and he was a little hesitant in his heart, should he continue to say his thoughts? On second thought, why are you worrying so much? He just said that his idea, whether the leader adopts it or not is a matter for the leader, at least he has worked hard for his own ideas, as for whether it can be put into practice is not something he can personally control, in short, as long as he tries hard, he will not regret it.
"Mayor, I have heard that when Houhe Township did not discover gold mines before, it was also a well-known and wealthy township, relying on the forest and fruit industry. Later, gold resources were discovered in Houhe Township, and gold mining developed rapidly, but the forest and fruit industry declined rapidly due to the pollution caused by gold mining. I think this is a failure in the history of the development of Houhe Township. Huo Yilu's words have been held in his heart for a long time, and he has never had the opportunity to confide in his superiors, and today he has a rare opportunity, he decided to spit it out as soon as possible, as for whether these words are liked by the leader, he can't care about it.
Zhao Changfeng hummed noncommittally and motioned for Huo Yilu to continue.
Huo Yilu said: "I have read an exploration report of the Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources, which says that the underground gold resources in Houhe Township are very rich, but according to the current mining rate, the underground gold resources will be exhausted in 40 years. So forty years later, what will Houhe Township rely on to eat? And more serious, now the size of the gold mines are engaged in predatory mining, in the excavation of gold veins when picking fat and thin, those rich ores are mined, and the low gold content of poor mines are discarded in the ground, this kind of mining only cabbage heart mining method to mine, I am afraid that after 20 years, the gold resources in Houhe Township have been wasted, so 20 years later, what do the people of Houhe Township live on? ”
"In addition to the predatory exploitation of gold resources, there is also the serious pollution brought by the gold mining to Houhe Township, so that many places in Houhe Township have no grass, the trees are withered, and the crops are withered. If Houhe Township continues to follow this path, then after the underground gold resources are exhausted, Houhe Township will become a dead and silent place, and I am afraid that it is no longer suitable for human beings to live here. ”
After Zhao Changfeng came to Pibei City, he heard in the mouths of government officials praising the great benefits that gold has brought to Bibei City, and it was the first time he had encountered a government official who had so fiercely criticized gold mining as Huo Yilu, the head of Houhe Township. And many of the things Huo Yilu said were what Zhao Changfeng had thought about, but Huo Yilu was from the perspective of Houhe Township, while Zhao Changfeng was from the overall situation of Bibei City.
However, Zhao Changfeng will not look at Huo Yilu differently because these views of Huo Yilu are similar to his own, because it is very easy to find the problem, the problem is there, and everyone can see it; The key is how to solve the problem after discovering it, and this is when the true level of a government official is tested. Zhao Changfeng wanted to see what kind of answer Huo Yilu would give.
"Township Chief Huo, according to what you say, it was a completely wrong decision to mine gold in Houhe Township in the first place!" Zhao Changfeng said with a smile.
"Mayor, I don't think there's anything wrong with mining gold, the question is how!" Huo Yilu looked at Zhao Changfeng and said, "According to the natural conditions of Houhe Township, it must be a two-legged walk, while mining gold, while continuing to maintain the original advantages of Houhe Township's forestry and fruit industry, so that the two are well combined, and the economy of Houhe Township will develop healthily and coordinatedly." ”
"Of course, it has come to this point now, and it is too late to complain about the previous policy." Huo Yilu continued, "What we want to sit on is to find a new path for the healthy and stable economic development of Houhe Township in the future on the basis of reflecting on the previous development policy of Houhe Township." ”
"Go on!" Zhao Changfeng reached out and flicked the ash in the ashtray.
"Houhe Township must gradually restore and develop the forest and fruit industry on the basis of pollution control, and regain the glory of Houhe Township's former apple town." Huo Yilu's eyes lit up, completely immersed in his own thoughts, "At the same time, combined with the city's guidelines and policies for integrating the gold industry, the large and small gold mines in Houhe Township will be merged into a gold mine, and advanced production technology will be introduced. ”
