Chen Xing and Wang Zhong and He Qi took a turn along the place around the waterfall, in addition to He Qi, who had already been here, Chen Xing and Wang Zhong both came for the first time, admiring the natural landscape here, Chen Xing's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, there is not only such a characteristic landscape as the waterfall, the key is that the surrounding scenery is not bad at all, Chen Xing walked to a mountain cliff, looked up, there are two huge mountain rocks standing like giants through the sky, there is a small gap in the middle, the further down, the bigger the gap, At the bottom, it was already the width of a man, enough to pass through between two huge rocks.

Chen Xing stood still here, pointed to the two mountain rocks in front of him, and smiled at Wang Zhong beside him, "Do you see if there is a bit of a glimmer of heaven here." ”

"Well, it's not much worse." Wang Zhong nodded, also looking up, his eyes also showed a look of admiration, I have to say, this magic of nature is indeed amazing.

"Let's go through the middle of this mountain rock and see if there is any landscape behind it." Chen Xing waved his hand at Wang Zhong and He Qi, and walked forward with great interest.

After passing through two huge mountain rocks, the oncoming water vapor made Chen Xing feel refreshed, and after walking a few steps forward, Chen Xing had already seen a lake in front of him, the sparkling water was crystal clear, the fish were playing underwater, and there were several small islands in the middle of the lake, but unfortunately there were no boats to pass through.

Not far from Chen Xing, there were two women pointing at the lake and saying something, and took out their cameras from time to time to take pictures, Chen Xing turned his head slightly to take a look, the two women were dressed very beautifully and fashionably, one of them was wearing a pair of big sunglasses, covering most of his face, and at a glance, he could see that these two people would never be the local countrymen, this dress is extremely rare in a poor place like Ximen, Chen Xing guessed that the two women should be the same as the group of men and women in front of the waterfall just now. It is estimated that it came down from the Haicheng area.

Chen Xing's eyes looked at the past, and the two women over there also found that someone was coming, and when Chen Xing saw the front of the two women, he was surprised, these two women were very good in appearance and temperament, Chen Xing was surprised that he could see such a woman in such a place, and after a little glance, Chen Xing didn't pay too much attention to it, and continued to pay attention to the surrounding landscape, and the more Chen Xing looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

"This is not only a single scenic spot of the waterfall, we have just walked all the way, and we have seen a number of very distinctive scenery, each of which can become a characteristic attraction, I think this place can be fully developed into a tourist attraction." Chen Xing said to Wang Zhong and He Qi, who followed behind, with a somewhat incredible look on his face, "This is a natural scenic spot, and no one has thought of developing it for so many years. ”

"This can only show that our traffic is too poor, there are too few people here, so that no one can find the business opportunities here, if it wasn't for Secretary He to bring us over today, I don't know such a place, I just heard Secretary He say that there will still be occasional people here to play, all of them are local to our Ximen, or from Haicheng, but there are not many people, I think the reason why there are few people, the main reason is because of the inconvenient transportation." Wang Zhong shook his head helplessly.

"Transportation is the number one obstacle to the development of Ximen, and it seems necessary to put the development of transportation as the first priority." Chen Xing nodded slightly and said, "There are ready-made natural resources to be mined, the software facilities are sufficient, but the hardware facilities are not at all, if you want to develop this place into a tourist area, you must first solve the problem of transportation." ”

When I thought of coming, it was bumpy all the way on the dirt road, Chen Xing's brows were tightly wrinkled, this potholed dirt road is not easy to walk, not to mention, it is easy to have traffic accidents, in case of rain, it has become a swamp road, if the road condition is not improved, if you want to develop into a tourist attraction, it can only be said to be a joke.

"Road construction is a problem, and whether it can be developed to build a tourist attraction here is another problem." Chen Xing's brows are still tightly wrangle, "It's easy to think, but it's really difficult to do, a tourist attraction wants to be famous, and the publicity and momentum in the middle are also indispensable, after all, we are not a tourist attraction like Huangguoshu Waterfall that has long been famous, and it can be famous without publicity, if we really want to make up our minds to develop here, then publicity is essential, this is also a lot of money, advertising to achieve good results, at least on a TV platform like CCTV, This advertising fee is tens of millions. ”

"Speaking of which, it's really all about money." Wang Zhong smiled, "County magistrate, the key is that we don't have money in Ximen, otherwise we can solve every problem." ”

"Yes, the key is that there is no money, everything is easy to do with money, and we don't have to worry about these things." Chen Xing also smiled helplessly, "A penny can stump a hero, how can we say that Ximen is also a county with a population of seven or eight hundred thousand, and it is really a panic due to lack of money." ”

A few people around and around, just take the car back to the county, the purpose of coming here is not to play, but to see if the landscape He Qi said has the value of development, today I personally came here to see, Chen Xing confirmed He Qi's words, this scenic spot is completely an undeveloped place, tourism resources are needless to say, but the key is the development value, relying on the investment in the county, not to mention that the finances of Ximen County are not rich, even if there is more money in the county, it is not enough to squander like that, The main thing is to attract businessmen to invest.

Wang Zhong and He Qi were put in charge of drafting a draft for tourism development, and as soon as the draft was ready, Chen Xing put the draft on the county government's office meeting the next day.

This is the first time that Chen Xing has presided over a government office meeting as deputy secretary of the county party committee and acting county magistrate.

On everyone's table was a text printed by Chen Xing about the development of tourism, and Chen Xing asked everyone to open the text to read, and his mouth was already open.

"All of you here, many of them are Ximen locals, I don't know if you have heard of Meilin Town and Longshan Town at the junction of the two towns there is a waterfall, the landscape around the waterfall can be said to be beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, a few days ago, Secretary He told me that the waterfall there will not be worse than the Huangguoshu Waterfall, I didn't believe it at the time, the next day I went there to run a trip, and experienced the scenery there, although the waterfall is not really as spectacular as Huangguoshu Waterfall, But the scenery of the whole place is no worse than those famous scenic spots, the waterfall can be said to be just one of the beautiful attractions, there are many beautiful landscapes around, that area, can be developed into a tourist area, there are enough eye-catching attractions to be developed. ”

"I have been to this place that Chen County said, once when I went to Meilin Town for an inspection, I went there with the leaders of the town, and I was surprised that we also had such a beautiful place in Ximen, but I was surprised at the time, and I didn't think that there were also business opportunities there, which could be developed into a tourist area, or Chen County's foresight." As soon as Chen Xing's voice fell, Zhang Ming, director of the county government office, hurriedly echoed Chen Xing's words, and his explicit sycophants made many people in the conference room look sideways at him.

Wang Zhong, deputy director of the office, sat in a corner of the conference room, and saw Zhang Ming's expression, Wang Zhong sneered in his heart, Zhang Ming used to follow Li Zheng with a clear banner, but now that Li Zheng has fallen, he is in a hurry to please Chen Xing, and he also owes the other party's face to be so thick-skinned. Wang Zhong secretly pondered in his heart, and his face immediately relaxed, with his understanding of Chen Xing, although Chen Xing did not show anything on his face, he was afraid that he was not interested in Zhang Ming's sycophancy.

"Chen County, I haven't been to this place you said, but for us in Ximen, the development of tourism may not be a practical and feasible way, if the tourism industry can really develop, drive the development of the service industry, the catering industry, as long as the industrial scale can be formed, the annual economic benefits can be very considerable." Fang Xiao, the deputy county magistrate, spoke out in favor of Chen Xing's words, he and Chen Xing were already on the same front, and they would support it loudly.

"I am very much in favor of the development of tourism, two years ago I also mentioned this idea to Comrade Chang Yong, when Comrade Chang Yong said that our Ximen finances into the food, there is no extra money to invest in tourism, it will not be done, now two years have passed, our Ximen County's finances are still the same, want to engage in tourism, I'm afraid it's not so easy, this early investment will be a lot, our county to come up with this is difficult." At this time, Zhang Qin, the deputy county magistrate in charge of tourism, education, health, religion and other aspects, also spoke out about his own proposal, Zhang Qin did not oppose the development of tourism, and still held a supportive attitude, but at the same time expressed concern about the county finances.

"Deputy county magistrate Zhang is right, it is not impossible to engage in tourism, but the key is that our county can't take out this money to invest, although this period of time in the land auction to get a lot of financial income, but those have to be used to invest in the transformation of shantytowns, the county finance is still poor, want to do something else, there is no spare money." Lu Ping, director of the Finance Bureau, frowned and said that Lu Ping did not seem to support or oppose Chen Xing's proposal, but only objectively mentioned the actual situation of the county's finances.

"Director Lu Ping, I've been the acting county magistrate for some days, why haven't I seen you come to report to me in detail about the financial situation of our county, so that I, the acting county magistrate, don't know how much money I have in our county, and I don't know what I want to do. Chen Xing stared at Lu Ping with a smile.

"Chen County, didn't you go to Jiangcheng a few days ago, I originally wanted to look for you, but you weren't there, so this matter was delayed." Lu Ping explained with a smile, and glanced at Chen Xing quietly, Lu Ping knew in his heart that Chen Xing had developed a prejudice against him.

"I've only been in Jiangcheng for a day, and it's been a few days since I came back to Ximen, so I haven't seen you coming." Chen Xing seemed to be joking and said, "People say that the God of Wealth has a big shelf, when I go to the city and the province to run the money, I see the people of the Municipal Finance Bureau and the Provincial Finance Department have to lose their smiles, not to mention the city, when we go to the province, we go up to a small county, even if it is a deputy county magistrate, in the eyes of the officials of the Finance Department, it is similar to a beggar who asks for food on the street. At that time, I also learned what it means to worship the God of Wealth, which is true in the province and the city. ”

Chen Xing exaggerated his experience in the listing of the Finance Bureau and the Provincial Department of Finance, at that time, because of the acquaintance with He Ming, the director of the Municipal Finance Bureau, Chen Xing asked for money in the Municipal Finance Bureau was still very smooth, and later came to the Provincial Finance Department, in addition to being left in the lounge at the beginning, he waited for nearly an hour, and later met Zheng Xuan, deputy director of the Department of Finance, with the name of Zhou Mingfang, Chen Xing actually did it very smoothly, but this all stemmed from the relationship he had worked with Zhou Mingfang, if he did not have Zhou Mingfang's relationship, Chen Xing had no doubt that he went to the Provincial Department of Finance to ask for money, and he would definitely have to go through a lot of tossing to get the money, which Chen Xing said on purpose, and the others didn't think there was anything wrong.

As for Lu Ping, director of the Finance Bureau, where can he not hear Chen Xing's voice at this time, the appropriations in the province and the city can come down so quickly, it is all Chen Xing's hard work to go up and run, now that the money has arrived, he didn't even say a word to Chen Xing, but only reported to Wang Dongchen, secretary of the county party committee, saying that it is ugly, he actually didn't put Chen Xing in his eyes, Chen Xing said this at the moment, Lu Ping's face was faintly embarrassed, and he smiled and defended himself, "Chen County, the provincial and municipal appropriations have just arrived, I've been trying to find time to report to you for the past two days, but I didn't expect to be delayed by some things, so I forgot about it. ”

"It seems that Director Lu Ping's forgetfulness is quite big, the county's money is in your hands, if you forget to write down one less or what to do one day this day, then in and out may be millions of things, Director Lu Ping, if you are not careful, you will be said to be embezzling public funds, others can have forgetfulness, you God of Wealth can never be, for the sake of your own future, you, the director of the financial bureau, must have a long memory." Lu Ming, director of the county public security bureau, glanced at Lu Ping with a smile, and his expression was serious.

"Thank you Director Lu for your concern, I will definitely not forget the things that should be remembered." Lu Ping replied to Lu Ming, his face was a little stiff, Lu Ming's expression was mocking, how could he not see it, he looked in the direction of Chen Xing quietly, Lu Ping's heart was slightly cold, although Chen Xing was a newcomer, but the means could not be ignored.

"Okay, we're in a meeting to study the tourism industry, so don't talk nonsense." Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand, patrolling some of the people who were watching the excitement, Chen Xing said, "I think so, many people have never been to this place that I said, so there is no point in discussing it further, I make a request, everyone will arrange time to go to the place I said in the past two days to take a walk, to experience it for yourself, and when we come back, we will discuss whether the plan to establish a scenic spot is feasible." ”

Chen Xing said and turned his head to look at Lu Ping, "Director Lu Ping, I want to have a specific understanding of the county's financial situation in the past two days, if you really don't have time, let someone prepare a detailed information and send it to my office." ”

The meeting ended in this way, Chen Xing walked out of the office, and the others dispersed, in the evening, Chen Xing and Fang Xiao and Lu Ming made an appointment to eat together, or in the previous small restaurant, the three of them ate with relish as the first time, Fang Xiao, who had been observing some details, saw that Chen Xing was still the same as before, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Chen Xing's current identity and status have changed, Fang Xiao is a little worried that Chen Xing will become different from before, and now after his own observation, Fang Xiao was truly relieved.

"Following Chen Xing, he may really be able to make some achievements in the future." Fang Xiao secretly thought in his heart, Li Zheng had wooed him before, the reason why Fang Xiao refused was because he felt that Li Zheng was a good face, hypocritical, and greedy for enjoyment, Fang Xiao thought that people like Li Zheng would not do anything big after all, and it was even very likely that something would happen, but he didn't expect that his conclusion about Li Zheng secretly came true, and Li Zheng's accident was earlier than he expected, and the contact with Chen Xing at the beginning had already made Fang Xiao feel that Chen Xing and Li Zheng were completely different people. Chen Xing's words and deeds confirmed Fang Xiao's feelings at the beginning, especially Fang Xiao saw that Chen Xing really wanted to do something practical, which also made Fang Xiao have more confidence in Chen Xing, following Chen Xing, the future may not be bad, although he is already in his thirties, but in the officialdom, he can become a deputy county magistrate at this age, which is already quite young, and Chen Xing, both of them should be said to be young people, with the same dedication to their careers and passion for their dreams, so Fang Xiao is now supporting Chen Xing from the bottom of his heart.

"Lu Ming, how much do you know about Lu Ping?" During the banquet, Chen Xing turned his head and asked Lu Ming.

"Lu Ping, I really don't know very well." Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head, "I have rarely dealt with him, and today at the meeting, I saw that he was disobedient to you, so I couldn't control my mouth, and I was really unhappy not to say a few words." ”

"Hehe, Lu Ming, your temper has to be changed, after all, a meeting is a meeting, you have to always pay attention to yourself as a cadre, we should pay more attention to the strategy of speaking, this speech is also an art." Chen Xing smiled slightly, and tactfully reminded Lu Ming that Lu Ming was helping him to say something inconvenient to say at the meeting, Chen Xing did not object to this, but the way Lu Ming spoke made him disagree, and he vaguely attacked people, and people who didn't know thought that he, the acting county magistrate, instructed the people around him to attack cadres with different opinions at government office meetings.

"Chen County, what do you want to know about Lu Ping? Family or the person's personality traits or something? Fang Xiao looked at Chen Xing suspiciously, he knew a little about Lu Ping.

"Fine, the more detailed the better." Chen Xing nodded and said with a smile, "Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated in a hundred battles, if you want to subdue Lu Ping, you have to start from other aspects, and if you don't know him well, you won't be able to start." ”

"Chen County, in my opinion, Lu Ping, the director of the financial bureau, is not of the same mind as you, and it is not difficult for such a person to be aroused, the key is not necessarily to make the summons, find a way to take him down." Lu Ming stared at Chen Xing with burning eyes, he had the experience of designing with Chen Xing to make Li Zheng fall off the horse before, Lu Ming was a little addicted to this one-and-done method, and said it without thinking about it, Li Zheng is executive deputy county magistrate can still get him off the horse, not to mention Lu Ping, the director of the financial bureau.

"Road Bureau, you think too simply, the personnel power is in the hands of Secretary Wang, without Secretary Wang's nod, if you want to replace Lu Ping, it is impossible, Lu Ping is in charge of the money bag for Secretary Wang, you said that Secretary Wang will remove his own people, to say something disrespectful, if that happens, unless Secretary Wang's head is abnormal, or Lu Ping himself is not treated by Secretary Wang, Secretary Wang wants to change someone, this is possible, but no matter what, Secretary Wang will definitely hold the position of the director of finance tightly in his own hands, except for his own people, it is extremely difficult for others to get involved. Fang Xiao shook his head, he didn't know that Chen Xing and Lu Ming had designed to let Li Zheng fall off the horse, so he didn't think much about Lu Ming's words, thinking that Lu Ming simply thought that it was an easy thing to replace Lu Ping, and reminded the other party loudly.

"What Fang County said is, it seems that what I think is too simple." Lu Ming sneered, glanced at Chen Xing quietly, and said in his heart that he almost missed his mouth, although Fang Xiao was also his own person, but looking at Chen Xing's appearance, he didn't want too many people to know about it, Lu Ming could also understand Chen Xing's mentality, not that he didn't trust Fang Xiao, but this kind of thing was not suitable for yelling, if one less person knew, one less person would know, the matter was already over, and there was no point in saying it.

"Well, you're right." Chen Xing glanced at Fang Xiao, nodded, and said with a smile, "But at present, we can only start with Lu Ping, and let Lu Ping fall to our side, this is the only way we can do at present, otherwise, as you said, the power of organization and personnel is in the hands of Secretary Wang, and Lu Ping is Secretary Wang's person, if you want to think of a way from the perspective of substitution, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky, and Secretary Wang will definitely refuse, so we can only break their fortress from the inside." ”

Chen Xing smiled, "Fang County, you talk about Lu Ping's situation, we can also find a way to prescribe the right medicine." ”

"Lu Ping, who can be deeply appreciated by Secretary Wang, and treats the director of the Finance Bureau as a stable person, it can be seen that he is very trusted by Secretary Wang, and Li Zheng has not won him over before, but he has not succeeded, I think we might as well start from his family and take a roundabout route, maybe we can achieve results." Fang Xiao groaned, seeing that Chen Xing was listening carefully, he said,

"Lu Ping is very family-oriented, among the cadres in our county is famous, if a good husband model, Lu Ping can definitely be selected, he is the director of the financial bureau, there is not much entertainment, but people who are familiar with Lu Ping know that if Lu Ping comes out to socialize and drink, he must go home before nine o'clock every night, and Lu Ping will not get drunk every time, Lu Ping has a daughter, Lu Ping once laughed and said that his baby girl is all he has, I have heard that his daughter seems to have taken the college entrance examination last year, I don't know which key university to apply for, I didn't get in, I heard that I repeated it again, count the days, and it will be June in three months, and his baby girl should take the college entrance examination again. ”

"Lu Ping's daughter?" Chen Xing pondered Fang Xiao's words carefully, "Where is his daughter repeating?" ”

"It seems to be in our county No. 1 middle school." Fang Xiao smiled.

"County No. 1 Middle School." Chen Xing muttered in a low voice, with a sudden smile on his face, "After eating, I will go to Lu Ping's house to sit in person, I don't know if Lu Ping will be surprised when he sees me as an uninvited guest." Chen Xing said, shaking his head and laughing.

"Chen County wants to visit in person?" Lu Ming was surprised for a moment, and then said, "Chen County, you give him face like that, if this Lu Ping is not interested, then he is too ignorant of lifting." ”

"I can't say that, if I can win Lu Ping over so easily, then it's worth it for me to visit a few more times." Chen Xing shook his head with a smile, "By the way, Lu Ming, you try your best to find a time to visit Xu Jiang, no matter what, Xu Jiang is also nominally a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, I remember that I knew about it like you before, you said that Xu Jiang has always been very low-key in the county, basically I haven't seen him appear in public like this, I think we might as well try to contact him, if we can win Xu Jiang over, it will be an extra vote on the Standing Committee." ”

"Secretary Xu Jiang?" Lu Ming obviously didn't expect Chen Xing to mention Xu Jiang, he was slightly stunned, and said, "Secretary Xu Jiang is also a cadre from Haicheng, we haven't heard much about him in Haicheng, but I do know that after he arrived in Ximen, he would go back to Haicheng's home every day, and when the time came to get off work at night, he would return to Haicheng on time, and during the day he came from Haicheng on time. He, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, is in charge of the work of the public procuratorate and the law, but he has never asked anything specifically, and when everything comes to him, he says a line 'let the following decide for themselves', and if he needs to sign, he usually signs it directly, and last time I heard the procuratorate's Li Jian privately say that he was the signing secretary. ”

"Every day from Ximen back to Haicheng?" Chen Xing was stunned for a moment, what Lu Ming said really made him feel incredible, although it was less than an hour's journey from Ximen County to Haicheng City, but it was enough to run back and forth like this every day, like he sometimes only went home once a month, unless he went to Jiangcheng, then go home to see, hearing that Xu Jiang was running back and forth every day, Chen Xing was not surprised.

"Yes, so I don't understand what Secretary Xu Jiang thinks in his heart, I guess, he should have mixed well in Haicheng before, and he was assigned to a poor place like our Ximen, and he couldn't accept it in his heart, and when there was a gap, he just became a dead secretary, and he didn't care about anything." Lu Ming shook his head with a smile.

"I think even if Xu Jiang wants to seriously manage the work he is in charge of, he may not be able to do so, you look at Han Dong before, and Rong Peng, can these people buy Xu Jiang's account? It's all one set in person, and another set behind the scenes, I think Xu Jiang is right no matter what, and he may be upset if he doesn't know it. Fang Xiao said half-jokingly.

"Hehe, the situation Fang County said is not impossible, when Han Dong and Rong Peng were still there, these two were close to Li Shaotong, and they really wouldn't buy Secretary Xu Jiang's account." Lu Ming nodded and smiled, it was himself, because Xu Jiang had been idle for a long time, and he would not listen to Xu Jiang's greetings.

"Yes, Xu Jiang also came down from Haicheng?" Chen Xing was surprised, last time I heard Lu Ming mention Xu Jiang, but he didn't mention this, this will Lu Ming talk about it, Chen Xing was also a little curious, and said with a smile, "It seems that I have to have a good chat with this Secretary Xu Jiang when I find a time." ”

A few people talked about the meeting this morning, Fang Xiao looked at Chen Xing, "Chen County, you said that you want to build a tourist area, are you serious?" ”

"Naturally, it's real, it's hard for me to be full of food and support, just shouting slogans." Chen Xing smiled and shook his head, "Fang County, you can also go there tomorrow to have a look, and then you will agree with me, it is absolutely feasible to build a tourist area there." Chen Xing said with a smile.

"Chen County has been to see it, of course I believe in your vision, just to attract people to invest, I don't know if anyone will be interested." Fang Xiao frowned.

"The boat to the bridge is naturally straight, we can't think about what the situation will be in the future, the key is to do what should be done in front of us, the urgent task is to build a county straight road there, as long as the traffic develops, the first big problem will be solved. Last year, Haicheng's tourism revenue exceeded 35 billion for the first time, and the number of tourists received throughout the year reached 27 million, with the strong growth of tourism in recent years, the tourism industry has become an important pillar industry of Haicheng, Ximen is close to Haicheng, and it is possible to take a share of Haicheng's rapidly developing tourism industry, so these difficulties in front of us should not make us timid, but to overcome difficulties. Chen Xing said with confidence.
