When the minibus stopped at the edge of the Qinghe Reservoir, Feng Juncai and Yao Ling, as well as the old branch secretary of Qinghe Village, Liang Tingting and Mao Xiaoman, two college students, and Liu Peng, Li Wei, Wang Fei, Xu Dongliang and others, had been waiting quietly for a long time. Chasing the reckless wasteland, you have to be quick.

After getting out of the car, Qi Tianxiang first introduced the old branch secretary of Qinghe Village to Zheng Ming, Zheng Ming heard the name of Qingfeng, his eyes lit up, he warmly held Qingshou's hand, and smiled at Qingshou, as if he said to everyone: "Qingshou, this name is good!" Auspicious and festive, it indicates joy and happiness, which is both hope and expectation. In the countryside, you can celebrate the harvest from time to time, which means that the wind and rain are good! ”

"In the countryside, the name is a mark, and you can call it as you like, and it's just convenient. The leader's compliment made my old man not know what to say. Qingfeng was very excited that Qi Tianxiang took the lead in introducing him to Zheng Ming, and he didn't know how to deal with it, so he had to say it truthfully, and then added: "When Secretary Qi first saw me, he also said the same, saying that my name is auspicious and joyful. ”

Zheng Ming was very satisfied with the answer of celebrating the harvest, and casually pointed to the reservoir in front of him and said with a smile: "Guarding this beautiful scenery shows that you have a lot of ideas, and it also shows that you are very far-sighted, and it is difficult to celebrate the harvest without it." ”

"This is the vision that Secretary Feng planned for our village, without his hard work and operation, we still guard the beautiful scenery and rely on the sky to eat." Qing Fengshou was a little embarrassed to be praised by Zheng Ming, his face flushed slightly, and he turned around and pointed to Feng Juncai who was nearby, and said to Zheng Ming: "This is all the credit of Secretary Feng!" ”

Zheng Ming took the initiative to reach out and take Feng Juncai's hand, and said with a gentle smile: "I know you, the county party secretary who took the initiative to invite Ying to come to Heyang County and aspire to build an ecological and livable city with blue skies and white clouds in three to five years, his courage and spirit are worthy of appreciation." Now more than three years now, here in Qinghe Reservoir, I really see the blue sky and white clouds that I have not seen for a long time, and I want to thank you for this. ”

Zheng Ming spoke, his eyes roamed left and right, looking at Feng Juncai while looking for it, and asked: "I remember that there was also a young expert from the Municipal Institute of Agricultural Sciences, who gave up the superior working and living conditions in the city and was determined to change the overall appearance of Heyang County with you, called Xiang Youzhi, why didn't you see him?" ”

"Principal Zheng really has a good memory, and after so many years, I can still remember these past events clearly, and even we ourselves can't remember why we came to Heyang County." Feng Juncai smiled and pointed to Yao Ping, who was standing in front of him, and said: "My previous partner has spread his wings and flew high, and his current partner is a well-known expert in the General Office of the Hezhou Municipal Party Committee, the beautiful county magistrate Yao Ping." ”

Seeing Feng Juncai introduce himself, and it was such a high-profile language, Yao Ping's face blushed slightly, glanced at Feng Juncai shyly, and said dissatisfiedly: "This is like a job introduction language, the squad leader is not like the squad leader, and the eldest brother is not like the eldest brother." As he spoke, he stepped forward and shook Zheng Ming's hand, and said with a generous smile: "Yao Ling, a recruit from Heyang County, came to take root and study." ”

"I think the words of the county magistrate Xiaoyao are reasonable, since the introduction can not only introduce the identity of the municipal party committee and the present of the beautiful county magistrate, but also don't forget the more brilliant past and present lives of others, just like Lin Daiyu is the daughter of the descending pearl fairy grass, the daughter-in-law of the cowherd and the beloved daughter of the former queen mother, which is in line with the principle of unity of identity and status." Zheng Ming turned back with a slight smile, looked at Lu Shanzun seriously and said: "The so-called moral blood should not be found from whether it is a successful entrepreneur, our panoramic hotel manager gave up the good hotel operation and came to Heyang County to build and develop an ecological and livable county economy, which is itself a righteous act that flashes the glory of dedication, embodied in a woman, why not let us be embarrassed by men with eyebrows?" ”

Zheng Ming's words contained too much meaning in the plainness, which caused everyone to smile kindly for a while. Zheng Ming immediately looked at Feng Juncai and said with a slight seriousness: "Don't praise me, I don't have such a good memory, these are what your Secretary Qi told me in the car." ”

Zheng Ming was modest and plain, and his words that revealed his heart made everyone present feel both surprised and extremely cordial, and the eyes cast on Zheng Ming were even more reverent.

"Secretary Qi not only told me the reason why you and Xiang Youzhi came here, but also told me your character of being a human ladder, which made me feel emotional!" Zheng Ming's eyes focused on Feng Juncai's face, and he said seriously: "In addition to feeling emotional, I also think deeply, what are we officials for? You can also talk about it. ”

Qi Tianxiang looked at Zheng Ming's eyes from Feng Juncai's face to his own face, so he thought for a while and said slowly: "Starting from one place, one step at a time, from the township to the county, or to the city, step by step to a higher position, the position will be higher and higher in a few decades, and the power will be greater and greater, but is the sense of purpose and service spirit being strengthened, and is it more pure and tenacious with the rise of the position?" This is also the characteristic of our cadres' promotion and organizational system, and the change of posts is not a good job in serving the people, but the needs of work and posts, and this makes the work of cadres only at the top and not at the bottom, and only the officials and not the people. Looking back after retirement, in addition to building piles of high-rise buildings and high-sounding and beautiful political performance projects, what real things have been done for the people, and how much welfare has been really done for them? ”

"I always hear someone say that 'gold and silver cups are not as good as the people's reputation', this is the people's reward, in fact, what can be rewarded is honor, the real monument is not high-rise buildings, not political projects, but deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of gratitude and imprint." Qi Tianxiang said while thinking about it, his expression was grim and sincere, "The prince Wandai, the wife and the son, the high tomb and the big mound, are just an illusory dream, how many people have been remembered throughout the ages, and how many broken monuments and mounds have been left behind after these grand scenes?" It seems that it is time to reflect on our concept of cadres and reputation, conscientiously take root in the grassroots for decades, do one thing all their lives, and strive to practice the purpose of serving the people and benefit the people. ”

Qi Tianxiang's words were sincere and sincere, which caused a burst of warm applause, Zheng Ming also looked at Qi Tianxiang applaudively after a warm applause, and said seriously: "Secretary Qi's words said my thoughts, why to be an official, why to be an official, the ancients still had the feeling of 'being an official is not for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes', and the county and county governance of the country is also an iron law of governance for many years." If you want me to say that I can be serious and do a good job as a county party secretary and a county magistrate in a down-to-earth manner, it is the greatest benefit to the people of this side, even if this is the end of the official career, as long as we work hard, we will be worthy of our hearts, worthy of the people, and worthy of the trust and trust of the party and the people. ”

Zheng Ming spoke, looked at Feng Juncai gently, and encouraged: "Your spiritual realm, as well as the dedication of being a ladder, are worthy of promotion, and even more worthy of publicity and commendation, I hope you can seriously do it in Heyang County for a few years, not only to realize your own ideal of blue sky and white clouds, but also to truly benefit the people of Heyang County." ”

Seeing Feng Juncai's solemn and serious expression, Zheng Ming's eyes showed a look of deep approval, and then he said to Yao Ling: "It is your blessing to be able to come to Heyang County to exercise, and to meet such a team and big brother!" Take him as an example, learn from him, correct your thoughts and behaviors, do something seriously, pay a hard work and sweat, and harvest a hard work, you will really benefit for a lifetime. ”

As Zheng Ming spoke, he beckoned to a few young people standing not far away, and said with a warm smile: "You guys stand closer, let me see the changes in you college student village officials." ”

Looking at the slightly restrained and nervous expressions of several young people who were gradually approaching, Zheng Ming smiled and said the names of each of them one by one, looking at their surprised eyes, and the gradually harmonious atmosphere, Zheng Ming said gently: "As a college student village official, you have changed a lot, and it is not easy for you to complete the transition from college students to farmers, but seeing the strength and maturity shown on your immature faces, I think you have handed in a satisfactory answer, and I am happy for you." ”

"What makes me particularly happy is the change in your identity, some of you are the second generation of officials, some are the second generation of rich, and there are also, but now you are all village officials, and you are a new generation of farmers with knowledge, ability, and practical awareness, and this change of identity is the most valuable." Zheng Ming's calm tone, full of joy and encouragement, said earnestly: "What is the second generation of officials, the second generation of rich, as well as the top students and school flowers, are all labels attached to you by the society, and they are the burden of expecting your rapid growth. ”

"With the development of a peaceful society, especially the continuation of time, there will be more official N generations and rich N generations, which is an indisputable fact." Zheng Ming's eyes were still gentle, and his demeanor was still so approachable, and he slowly continued: "From a close distance, we all know that Kangqian is prosperous, and Kangxi is the emperor for several generations?" How many generations of Qianlong is the emperor? Counting from Nurhachi, Kangxi is the fourth generation of the emperor, and Qianlong is the sixth generation of the emperor. Counting from the Shunzhi of the Central Plains of Dingding, it is also the second generation of the emperor and the fourth generation of the emperor, but we do not have such a name, but are accustomed to call it the prosperous era of Kangqian, because they have created more brilliant achievements than their predecessors, so that history and time remember them. The emperors who created the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan Dynasty and created the rule of Wenjing, the reason why they are remembered by history is not that they are emperors for several generations, but that they have created a prosperous era that can be compared with the glory of their ancestors, and their achievements and contributions are no less than the achievements of the ancestors in expanding the territory and establishing the empire. The death of the Qin Dynasty, the collapse of the Sui Empire in a few decades, and the squandering of the glory of their ancestors by the children of the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are all examples of success and failure that remind us that it is not only the external enemy that we are wary of, but precisely the arrogance that comes from our own hearts, and the indulgence and laxity of our own behavior, which is not a matter of generations, nor is it a matter of time. ”

Zheng Ming's words aroused warm applause and heartfelt admiration from several young people, until the applause and cheers gradually subsided, and Qingfeng, who had been patiently waiting and listening, carefully accompanied the smiling face and said: "The leaders have worked hard all the way, so it's better to go to our farmhouse to take a rest, and then visit the tour." ”

Qingfeng's words seemed to remind Zheng Ming and the others, and it was time to see the time, and it was time for lunch, under Qi Tianxiang's proposal, Zheng Ming no longer insisted, and followed Qingfengshou into a nearby farmhouse with an easy-going smile.

Although it is winter season, the farmhouse is still full of life, and although the vines in the front yard have no leaves, the vigorous vine trellises still hang with clusters of bright grapes, and the purple bunches of grapes show an alluring luster in the warm winter sun. The dark green leaves of the climbing vines that grow along the wall grow freely, proudly welcoming the amazed eyes of everyone.

Sitting at the round table under the grape trellises, looking at the bright purple on the shelves, looking at the green leaves that crawled all over the wall, everyone's faces were full of doubts and puzzles, and there were strong doubts about the warmth of the courtyard and the temperature that was obviously different from the outside.

Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, Qingfeng Harvest smiled mysteriously, sold Guanzi, smiling eyes proudly patrolled on everyone's faces, and said slowly for a long time: "This is our ecological farmhouse, but also our characteristics and advantages that are different from other places, and we can also feel the strong spring in winter, which is our real selling point!" ”

As he spoke, Qing Fengshou stood up and walked to the edge of the wall, squatted down and picked up the vines on the ground, revealing the hidden pipes by the wall, and a white mist could be vaguely seen spreading from the pipes, slowly rising with the wall. After doing all this, Qing Fengshou said with great interest: "This is our secret weapon, the heating and humidification pipes all over the yard, it is with these that we can maintain the right temperature and humidity in the yard at all times, and also ensure that the crops can continue to grow." ”

"It's all the children's ideas, and it's their ideas that inspired us, and we have completely improved the taste of the farmhouse without any additional investment." Qing Fengshou pointed to the purple grapes on the vine trellis and introduced to Zheng Ming and Qi Tianxiang: "This is a late-maturing grape variety, what is the cold-tolerant variety of ice grapes called abroad, the fruiting period can be as long as half a year, these grapes are mainly for ornamental and decorative purposes, and the general ones are not picked and sold, if you want to eat them, as long as you can afford the price." The backyard is the real vegetable garden, if you are interested, I will take you to take a look. ”

Zheng Ming nodded, his interest was very high, but he didn't ask any questions implicitly, but looked at Qi Tianxiang with a slight smile, slowly stood up, and followed Qing Fengshou to the backyard, the scene in front of him made him suddenly excited.

The big backyard seems to be wrapped in a faint white mist, and a little bit of green, red, and faint yellow and purple can still be clearly seen between several fields, the clear green leafy vegetables are verdant, vegetables such as beans and cucumbers are showing vitality, and the red tomatoes are exuding attractive colors, which make people instantly want to get close.

"Leaders, just take a look, the humidity here is too heavy, let's go to the front!" Qing Fengshou saw Zheng Ming, Qi Tianxiang, and Lu Shanzun's expressions full of interest, so he kindly reminded, "I will explain the mystery here to the leaders in detail at the front." ”

"Either young people have knowledge and ideas, or they can't be convinced." After everyone returned to the front yard and sat down under the grape trellis, Qingfeng Feng said happily: "A few young children have learned these things from the Internet, using temperature and humidity mediation to improve the ecological environment in the farmhouse and produce a suitable regional environment, which not only changes the growing conditions of crops, but also mediates the planting structure of vegetables." ”

"What is the basis for all these temperature and humidity adjustments? Electricity, or fuel heating. Lu Shanzun looked at the hot air that was constantly bubbling up around him, and asked puzzledly: "How to control this temperature?" Isn't the cost of using it very high? ”

"Isn't it? Not only is there no cost of use, but it can be said that there is no cost. Yao Ling, who had not spoken, interjected and said: "This is all Tingting and Wang Liang's idea, using the principle of water circulation, I happened to work in a solar energy company during my short training, and their solar panels and pipelines are being promoted and laid out, and the price and conditions are very attractive." ”

"The solar panels can not only provide enough energy, but can also be converted at will, only a few integrated solar panels are needed, which can not only solve the problem of electricity supply in the farmhouse, but also solve the problem of hot water supply and washing." Yao Ling looked at Zheng Ming and Qi Tianxiang with a smile and said: "Just one investment, it has solved the problem of electricity, water and circulating temperature regulation, which is really once and for all." ”

After listening to Yao Ling's introduction, all Zheng Ming's doubts disappeared, and he said with a happy smile: "Such a complex ecological project can be solved by such a simple operation, and the so-called science and technology are productivity, which is really correct!" The seemingly unfathomable solar energy, just simple grafting and use, can produce real effects and benefits, it is really not simple, not simple! ”

Zheng Ming was very satisfied with what Yao Ling said, and the smile on his face never diminished, and when he saw the dishes and fruits served, the smile showed that he was full of joy and appreciation.

When a pot of stewed sea bass was presented in front of his eyes, he had not yet tasted the deliciousness of the sea bass raised in the cage of Qinghe Reservoir, and the pink lotus flowers blooming in the white sea bass soup made him high-five and exclaim, and also praised this wonderful combination, and even tasted the fish soup with a faint fragrance of lotus flowers, he was full of praise.

Each of the next dishes is wonderful, and it also tempts the appetite to the fullest, mixed lotus silk, honey lotus root, red oil and white lotus, fragrant fried lotus root, four lotus dishes as the main dish, as well as lotus root powder lotus seed soup, lotus leaf buns, shredded meat small white lotus, wine fragrant drunken lotus, it seems to have taken the lotus dish to the extreme, attracting Zheng Ming and Qi Tianxiang bursts of exclamations, a meal without drinking, feeling already drunk.

After a brief rest after the meal, Zheng Ming held a discussion with several college students and village officials, including Liu Peng and Liang Tingting, and asked them not only about their current life and study, but also about their feelings about living in the countryside. The questions are very careful, very comprehensive, and the listening is even more patient, not only asking to talk about feelings and ideas, but also to let them explain in combination with examples, it seems to be an exam and response, the teacher is strict, and the students are serious and serious. In the slow movement of the pleasure boat, on the huge water surface of the slightly cool Qinghe Reservoir, the wisdom of two different ages is merging and communicating.

When the cruise ship slowly docked at the edge of the reservoir, Zheng Ming's thinking seemed to be nearly completed, and after going ashore, in the face of several college students and village officials, as well as the village chief and branch secretary of Qinghe Village, as well as Feng Juncai and Yao Ling of Heyang County and other county party and government leaders, especially Qi Tianxiang and Lu Shanzun, who accompanied him, Zheng Ming solemnly expressed his thoughts on the trip.

"How to be a cadre, how to be a leader, it seems that I don't need to deliberately emphasize, and I don't need to be inspired, standing on the edge of the Qinghe Reservoir, just now, it can be said that the job system in China's reality is involved, the central, provincial, city, county, and even the village, all the cadres are here, and a few years later, this reservoir may still exist, but how many of our cadres can still occupy the position and have power?"

"This is what Comrade Tianxiang said just now, the monument is built in the hearts of the people, but also built in the actual creation, many years later, future generations can still benefit from the well-being of this reservoir, and they can also think of the people and things that built this reservoir, this is the return for the benefit of the people, that is, the power of spiritual continuation." Zheng Ming looked around the crowd deeply, and said earnestly: "Walking into the hustle and bustle of the city, I miss the tranquility of the mountains and the freshness of the countryside even more, as if this is the influence and change of the environment, but in fact, these are the manifestations of impetuousness." The same is true of society, no matter what kind of social form, no matter at any time, inner peace is a noble must, as long as there is a sublime in the heart, there is a sacredness in the heart, you can overcome all social interference and temptation. This noble and sacred, for our people is to serve the people, as long as there is always this belief in the heart, there will be inexhaustible motivation, and the chest will always be a piece of clear water and blue sky. ”

Zheng Ming's speech was very short, but the intention was very clear, which triggered a warm response from everyone, in the cheerful applause, Zheng Ming shook hands with everyone one by one to say goodbye, although there was no longer too much language, but the eyes revealed sincere encouragement and hope.

Qi Tianxiang was moved by Zheng Ming's words, and a sublime and warm rose in his heart, and it continued until he sent Zheng Ming back to the Nanjiao Hotel, and there was still a warm current in his heart.
