The entire border area of southern Sichuan, except for a few port cities, is mostly undeveloped or shallowly developed, and is generally a poor area.

Mengla County belongs to the Cangjiang Wa and Lahu Autonomous Prefecture, where ethnic minorities account for nearly 60 percent of the total population.

Mengla County is not a poor county in the traditional sense, because it belongs to the national second-class border trade port, there are many people who come here to do business in the mainland, the construction of Mengla City is not inferior to the developed cities and towns in the interior, the annual transaction volume of the Mengla trade market reaches tens of millions of yuan, and the border people's mutual market trading points in several towns and towns on the border are also booming.

However, Mengla County does have a high proportion of people living in absolute poverty, and these people are mainly concentrated in those ethnic minority villages deep in the mountains or mid-mountains.

Although in recent years, with the help of the Republic, the Andaman has gradually banned the cultivation of opium poppies, but the tradition of growing opium poppies among the border people in the deep mountains and dense forests has not been abandoned with the progress of the times.

The by-product of the drug epidemic is AIDS, and there is a village of more than 60 people near the Calcium Boundary Monument, and more than half of the population is living with HIV.

In recent years, the economy of the Republic has advanced rapidly and steadily, and the average living indicators of some cities have exceeded those of developed countries in Europe and the United States. However, there are still some impoverished counties in mountainous border areas such as Lingxi, southern Sichuan, Sichuanbian, and Ningbei, and the quality of life of the border people is indeed worrisome.

Just like in southern Sichuan, some villages on the border almost directly transitioned from the primitive society to the new society after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and in these minority villages, the conventional village rules are greater than the law, and the proportion of illiteracy is surprisingly high. In the year of the knife, Han Dongmei, the former secretary of the Liaobei Provincial Party Committee, was transferred to the secretary of the provincial party committee of southern Sichuan Province

Subsequently, a group of young cadres were enriched to border prefectures (cities) and counties, and in the upsurge of this batch of personnel transfers, in the summer of the flying year, Tang Ning was transferred from the General Office of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee to Mengla County as deputy director of the Development and Reform Bureau.

Although Tang Ning is just 23 years old, he has been working for two years, and he is working in a provincial organ, so there are many opportunities for promotion, and it is not difficult to be promoted to a higher level with outstanding performance. Of course, at the grassroots level at the county level, he is indeed the deputy director of this year's discipline, which is indeed quite eye-catching.

In the archives of the personnel department of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, Tang Ning's resume is not so simple, he graduated from college in 26 years, passed the national civil service examination in the same year, and entered the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection "successively served as a clerk and a deputy section-level clean government specialist, and was transferred to the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee of Southern Sichuan Province in May, and three months later, he was sent to Mengla County. In the eyes of this grassroots cadre, a nerd from a provincial organ, in fact, he has a prominent experience in working in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The "Guyuncha" in the central street of Mengla County is a restaurant based on Wa cuisine, the decoration of the storefront is quite ethnic color, the welcome lady in front of the restaurant is dressed up in a beautiful black placket, wearing a black and red woven tube skirt, with leggings on the legs, and the large and small silver collars around the neck shine brightly in the sunset, and they are more beautiful than flowers.

In the window seat in the lobby on the first floor, Tang Ning was drinking and chatting with Jia Jingshan, head of the Microfinance Section of the Poverty Alleviation Office of the Development and Reform Bureau.

The Mengla County Poverty Alleviation Office is set up in the Development and Reform Bureau, and usually has a deputy director at the department level who also serves as the director, while Tang Ning's work arrangement focuses on poverty alleviation, so it is natural for him to concurrently serve as the director of the Poverty Alleviation Office.

In fact, there are more than a dozen people in the Poverty Alleviation Office, and almost all of them can be called deputy directors and section chiefs, and the so-called microfinance section is officially called the microfinance unit of the Poverty Alleviation Office in the internal documents of the county party committee, and the entire unit includes Jia Jingshan and only two people.

"Tang Bureau, the food is still delicious, right?" After a toast with Tang Ning, Jia Jingshan asked with a smile.

Downing doesn't smoke, but he drinks well, not to mention the light and tasteless soaking wine.

"It's just a little salty." Tang Ning said with a smile, many dishes on the table are not famous, but snake meat and bees are still known.

Jia Jingshan smiled and said: "This is still to take care of our taste, they love to eat salt and spicy coins, love to eat insects, and the meals in the county hotel are not original for a long time." ”

Tang Ning nodded, picked up the teacup and drank the tea, the tea was extremely bitter, but very tasty.

At the table next to them, several men and women were making loud noises, as if they were discussing the authenticity of a piece of jade. Mengla County is also famous as a black market jade trading place in China, "Many jade merchants from the mainland like to come here to pan for gold."

Jia Jingshan listened for a while, then pouted slightly: "These are a few turtles, and they can't touch the way." ”

Tang Ning smiled, not squeaking.

Jia Jingshan glanced at Tang Ning and said with a smile: "Tang Bureau, you have been here for more than a month, to be honest, do you think I have a strict mouth?" ”

Tang Ning nodded.

Jia Jingshan lowered his voice and said; "Then can the Tang Bureau get to the bottom of it? Do you have any access in the province? ”

The grassroots staff didn't have much ideas, especially Jia Jingshan, who couldn't get down this year, was just a mess, and he was used to it casually in front of the leader. What's more, Tang Ning is young and a temporary cadre, he will leave as soon as the time comes, Jia Jingshan is enthusiastic, and he has more contact with Tang Ning, the house where Tang Ning lives is rented by Zhang Luo, he is very close to Tang Ning, and has more daily interactions with Tang Ning, and he can also feel that this young man is not ordinary, and he admires some of Tang Ning's views and views, but he can't talk about awe.

Tang Ning shook his head with a smile and said, "No." ”

Jia Jingshan smiled: "Tang Bureau, now the selection of cadres is not competitive, with your ability, even if you don't have a backstage, you can soar, don't forget me when you go back to the province in the future." He smiled again: "But now there are many people who are eyeing your piece of fat, and the leaders in the county have greeted you, right?" ”

Tang Ning knew that Jia Jingshan was talking about a plan of 10 million yuan, and the province recently issued a notice to give a special poverty alleviation allocation of 10 million yuan to each of several border impoverished counties, specifically to support the border people to get rid of poverty, which is naturally a piece of fat in the eyes of many people, but in recent years, the government has become more and more perfect in the financial disclosure system, taking poverty alleviation funds as an example, its flow must not only be approved by the audit department, but also submitted to the people's congress for approval, and the people's congress will hold a forum to listen to the people's intentions if the amount of funds is relatively large and the project involves the people's livelihood. Not to mention these large amounts of funds, even if Jia Jingshan has a small loan, they must go through the same process, and they must also make financial disclosure on the government website, and it must be clear who the loan is given to and how much it is, and it is no longer the era of kickbacks and favors for loans.

Of course, there are policies and countermeasures, and those who want to make money can come up with any way, and not long ago, the secretary of the municipal party committee in Linshi was arrested by shuanggui for corruption. However, with the improvement of the system, the risk factor of economic crime has become higher and higher, and the cost of crime has become larger, and some cadres who did not have a high degree of self-discipline have to be more self-disciplined, so as to naturally curb the occurrence of corruption to a certain extent.

Listening to Jia Jingshan mention this money, Tang Ning remembered the conversation between Du Dexin, the executive deputy county magistrate, and himself, Du Dexin did not want to embezzle this special fund, but talked about some ideas for the border people to get rid of poverty, saying that the county is ready to develop tourism in minority villages, and the financial allocation will be allocated.

Shaking his head, Tang Ning picked up the teacup and drank the tea slowly.

Jia Jingshan smiled: "Twenty years ago, this money went to the city and county, and it would be good if our poverty alleviation office could stab a little scum, but now no one dares to do this, but it is also a headache, you are nothing, anyone who offends can pat their butts and leave, if Chen Ju Zhang is in charge of this stall, it will be enough for them to have a headache." ”

Tang Ning nodded slightly, the leaders of the county all want to make achievements, and they all have their own plans, but no matter what they do, they can't do without money.

"Hey, Boss Song." Jia Jingshan suddenly stood up with a smile.

Tang Ning looked over and saw a group of people walking into the restaurant, walking in the middle was a young and beautiful young woman, with white skin, dignified demeanor, and a lilac double-breasted windbreaker, which looked even more extraordinary.

"Chief Jia." The beautiful young woman smiled and came over to greet Jia Jingshan.

Jia Jingshan said with a smile: "Boss Song, today I will bring you a distinguished guest, Director Tang of our bureau." Tang Bureau, this is Boss Song, this hotel is hers, the big boss with a lot of money! ”

Downing stood up with a smile.

The beautiful young woman glanced at Tang Ning in surprise, and chuckled: "Tang Ju is really young and promising" took the initiative to stretch out her delicate little hand.

"Boss Song." Downing smiled and shook her hand.

The beautiful young woman said: "Don't want Boss Song Boss Song, call me Xiaohong, my name is Song Xiaohong." Then she turned her head and said to the lobby foreman who came over with a frosty face: "What's going on?" Why didn't you arrange an upstairs room for Tang Ju and Section Chief Jia. ”

The foreman was a middle-aged man, obviously very afraid of her, and he didn't know what to say.

Tang Ning smiled: "It's not bad for them, Boss Song's business is booming, and the upstairs was full when we came." Besides, we're ready to settle the bill. ”

Song Xiaohong turned her head and said apologetically: "That's also their negligence, so let's make amends to the two of you, let's go to the big world to watch the show, I'll treat you."

Tang Ning was about to excuse himself, but when he saw Jia Jingshan squeezing his eyebrows and glaring at him, he smiled and didn't squeak again.

Song Xiaohong went to Zhang Luo's car, and Jia Jingshan whispered in Tang Ning's ear: "If you want to play in Mengla, this woman must be known." ”

Tang Ning smiled: "She is so capable? ”

Jia Jingshan said with some appreciation: "Of course, if you want to say that she is also a legend, her father used to be a general of the Tai El organization, and he was captured by the government army more than ten years ago, and he is still in prison there." At that time, she was still young, ran back to the mainland, and quickly made a fortune in the past few years, but she was really unlucky, just half a month after getting married, her husband was sentenced to be involved in the gang, "was beaten to death in prison, most of her property was frozen and confiscated, but she didn't know how to be so capable, no, less than a year, the business has become bigger again, and she is also very good in the south, sometimes we encounter some foreign-related affairs in the county, and she has to come forward, solve it quickly, and don't need to alarm the above." ”

Tang Ning frowned slightly, "Then she is also the underworld?" ”

Jia Jingshan said with a smile: "That's not good, but some people say that her husband is her scapegoat, but it's just a private discussion, who knows." ”

Tang Ning couldn't help but look at the beauty who was smiling at Bozi walking over, according to the time, her father's imprisonment seems to be the time when the 59th Army raided the Tai Yir army, if it is really calculated, he is actually a "feud" with her?

The big world is the most luxurious nightclub in Mengla, it is said that the princesses who accompany the wine in the high-end private room on the second floor have girls from Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, the gap between the rich and the poor in the southern neighboring countries is extremely large, some big bosses are very fond of coming here to consume Tang Ning and others sat on the seats near the stage on the first floor of the club, under the beautiful lights on the stage, handsome men and women wearing national costumes sang and danced, and the dancing posture was beautiful and "pleasing to the eye."

The big world is also Song Xiaohong's industry, and after she sat down, there was an endless stream of people who came to say hello to "Sister Hong".

Tang Ning smiled: "Miss Song is a celebrity in Mengla!" ”

Song Xiaohong glanced at Tang Ning with a smile and said, "It's just a small place, Tang Ju is smiling." He picked up the cup and gently touched Tang Ning's coffee cup, and said with a smile: "Tang Ju, I won't drink today, I'll call you another day, and we'll have two drinks to our heart's content." ”

Tang Ning nodded slightly.

"Where is the Tang Bureau from?" Song Xiaohong seemed to ask casually, although she tasted it, her big charming eyes glanced at Tang Ning as if she were nothing.

"Pekingese." Naturally, Tangning would not hide these little things.

"Look at Tang Bureau's age, right?" Song Xiaohong's red lips pursed slightly. Coffee.

Jia Jingshan interjected with a smile: "Tang Ju is only twenty-three, and he graduated from college on twenty-one, and he studied in college for two years, and he still graduated from Huada." ”

"Oh? It turns out that Tang Ju is a genius! Song Xiaohong laughed coquettishly.

In fact, the entire political circle of Mengla County is a little curious about the 23-year-old deputy director, but after hearing that he has only studied at Downing University for two years, some people are in a hurry, and his academic performance is extremely good.

Song Xiaohong smiled again: "I've been out for more than two months, but I didn't expect such a young leader from our Mengla, Tang Bureau, I will ask you to take care of it in the future." ”

Tang Ning smiled and said, "Take care of each other." ”

Song Xiaohong glanced at Tang Ning a few times, and then smiled and said: "Tang Bureau, let's just laugh, if it's inconvenient for you, you can ignore me."

The Tang Bureau is in charge of poverty alleviation, I don't know if there are any good ideas, I think Secretary Ma and County Magistrate Du's plan is very good, take the national characteristics of the tourism route, if the propaganda is in place, the financial resources will be extensive, and the life of the border people will not have to worry. ”

Tang Ning smiled and said: "Of course, Secretary Ma and County Magistrate Du are insightful. "He doesn't talk about his thoughts with such irrelevant people.

Jia Jingshan couldn't help it, and said disdainfully: "What about Ma Qingfu and Du Dexin? In front of our Tang Bureau, it's better to save the province. The Tang Bureau is right, now engaged in ethnic tourism, firstly, there are many routes, and the competition is fierce, and secondly, it is not a long-term solution, and it is not a cure. The most fundamental reason why the border people are poor is that education cannot keep up, and their ideas are not in tune with modern society. Tang Bureau said that the fundamental reason why Wa children do not like to go to school is that the Chinese language they learn is very boring and has nothing to do with daily life, and the Wa script created by the state at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China also needs to be improved, and it must be easy to understand and reflect the essence of Wa culture, so that it is easy to broaden and truly enhance the Wa people's interest in learning. With its own national script and promoting it, the Wa people can gradually get rid of their current state of existence, and only rely on tourism to get rich, even if they make money, their descendants will not last long. ”

Jia Jingshan's big talk made Song Xiaohong more and more quietly when she listened, and her eyes glanced at Tang Ning from time to time.

Tang Ning was a little helpless, "Jia Jingshan's mouth is really strict, I knew that I wouldn't talk to him so much."

"Tang Ju, are you really just twenty-three years old? Just a month in Monla? Song Xiaohong looked at Tang Ning in surprise and re-examined this young man.

Tang Ning nodded and said, "What Section Chief Jia just said is not something new, and it is not something that no one can think of. ”

Yes, someone can think of it, but no one will do it. Improving the written languages of ethnic minorities and popularizing education in the written languages of ethnic minorities will be a project to benefit the people for a long time, and everyone wants to achieve immediate results during their time in power, and this kind of project that will take several decades to achieve great results and even put a huge burden on the finances will naturally be cared for.

"Will you do that?" Song Xiaohong smiled and looked at Tang Ning.

Tang Ning smiled and said, "I hope I can get off the ground during my time in Mengla." As he spoke, he raised his hand and looked at his watch, and he had to call Han Xue when he went back.

After Tang Ning left Huada, Han Xue successfully completed the mission and left the security department, continued to complete her studies at Huada and entered Huayi Group, and it is said that she became the youngest member of President Qi's think tank, of course, this is because of her special relationship with Tang Ning and President Qi, and her role in the general advisory team of Qi is naturally just learning.

I saw that some comrades always said in the comment area that they should write more and write more, and there were also those who left me a message on QQ, asking me to be a writer, cough, in fact, I am reluctant to be official, but it should be over, and it will be boring to write too much in the outer part, and the difficulty of Tangning's road is too small.

In fact, comrades who read carefully should be able to find that the outer part is more about the changes brought to the republic by the leaders of Tang Yi's generation through Tang Ning's perspective.

I don't like to watch Tang Ning's" and don't always have to give opinions in the comment area, the outer part must be like this, I don't want to see Tang Ning's second-generation characters, you can really not read it, don't step on it while reading it makes me uncomfortable, G Trade King Zhao Wan will say something again, many people care about my new book, my new book is still those thousands of words, sweat to death, I can't send it at the end of this month, wait for the end of next month.
