"Mayor, see no, this whole area, there are no less than thirty or forty enterprises, ranging from large to small, and the wastewater and waste gas they discharge can be said to be all substandard." After getting out of the car, Zeng Ping took the road and introduced Chen Xing as he walked, and at a glance, they were all factories, and because there were many enterprises gathered here, there were many floating populations, and there were many people and cars coming and going.

"Dozens of enterprises are basically illegal pollutant discharge, and the district has turned a blind eye, and I don't know what to think in my head." Chen Xing's face was calm, his face was not good-looking, but after all, Chen Xing knew that the district valued the economic benefits brought by these enterprises and the annual profits and taxes paid to the district, as the mayor, Chen Xing knew in his heart that he actually couldn't go to the cadres in the district too harshly, this phenomenon was too common.

"The reason why this place is called Xiaoshiping is because of the name of this river, and this river is called Xiaoshihe, from which the name of Xiaoshiping comes from." Zeng Ping explained to Chen Xing in detail that several people had walked for a while, and they had already gone around to the side and back of the paper mill, where the sewage outlets of the factory were all here, and the sewage pipes as thick as buckets were directly discharged into the river.

Chen Xing looked at the Xiaoshi River that Zeng Ping said, he didn't know what the Xiaoshi River looked like before, but what he was looking at now was purely a black and smelly black river, and the river was about to catch up with the black ink black.

"The villagers here said that ten or twenty years ago, they still ate the water of this river, and in the summer, the surrounding villagers came here to swim, and no one dared to come here in recent years, saying that if the water went down to soak up, it would be strange if the skin did not rot." Zeng Pingdao.

"I think the villagers are right, not to mention that this water will rot the skin if people go down, even if the animals go down, they can't stand it, I think the fish and shrimp in this river have long been dead." Chen Xing shook his head and looked forward, Chen Xing could clearly see that along the Xiaoshi River, there were many large and small enterprises.

"Do the villagers eat well water now?" Chen Xing turned his head and asked Zeng Ping.

"No, the villagers don't even dare to eat the well water now, saying that they are afraid that the sewage will pollute the underground water quality, and now every household eats tap water." Zeng Ping is very familiar with the situation in Xiaoshiping, and said, "Because there are a group of enterprises here, the economic development is not bad, the city water company has already laid the pipeline to this area, and a ton of water is not expensive, and the villagers would rather eat tap water." In fact, how to say it, the surrounding villagers, these enterprises are both love and hate, because these enterprises, the surrounding villagers also benefit, the village sells the money of collective land, the villagers can benefit, plus the enterprise recruitment, many of the village's surplus labor force are working in these factories, the wage income is okay, the villagers' life is not bad, and because of the floating population and business opportunities brought by these enterprises, many villagers open small shops or stalls to do business, can make some money. ”

Zeng Ping paused as he spoke, "So the villagers in the surrounding villages, on the one hand, hate the pollution caused by this small Shiping enterprise, but on the other hand, they have formed an inextricable interest relationship with these enterprises." ”

"You said that some villagers had been to the city before, what was the reason?" Chen Xing frowned.

"The overall cause was pollution, when several elderly families died of cancer, the villagers thought it was a long-term pollution cause, and they wanted to claim compensation from the company, but the company did not agree, so the villagers gathered in the city to make trouble, and later a newspaper exposed the pollution here, and the city asked for supervision." Zeng Ping said.

"Then it's gone, isn't it?" Chen Xing looked at the big chimneys erected by the Jiuye Paper Mill next to him, which were already emitting thick exhaust gases, his face was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Then it was over, the newspapers couldn't keep tracking and reporting, and the villagers said they were disgusted with the pollution, but they really didn't have the determination to completely fall out with the company." Zeng Ping said he knew the villagers' mentality all the better.

"From what you said, we can get a very important message, we want to clean up Xiaoshiping, and we can't take a one-size-fits-all approach, otherwise we will wishfully think that we are for the good of the villagers, maybe the villagers may not appreciate it in the end." Chen Xing smiled, and then wrinkled his brows, "It is said that these enterprises have supporting environmental protection equipment when they are built, are the environmental protection equipment of all enterprises not up to standard?" ”

"That's not, it's not that some companies see that the environmental protection equipment of other companies is not up to standard and no one cares, some of the enterprises that are clearly environmental protection equipment fully up to the standard will follow the learning, stop using environmental protection equipment, because this can save costs, can save money and no one cares, why don't enterprises?" Zeng Ping smiled bitterly.

"Don't you environmental protection department care?" Chen Xing looked at Zeng Ping.

"Mayor, we want to manage it, but as soon as we come to check, those environmental protection equipment is not up to standard, either pretend to be closed for rectification, or continue to produce, do not put us in our eyes at all, and environmental protection equipment up to standard, as soon as people come to check, they will turn on the environmental protection equipment, as soon as people leave, they immediately turn off again, and we play a game of cat and mouse, we can't do anything about them, the background is harder, and some directly push our staff out." Zeng Ping smiled helplessly.

When Chen Xing and Zeng Ping, including secretary Huang Jianghua and driver Li Yong, stood on the edge of the Xiaoshi River behind the side of the paper mill and pointed, they didn't notice that someone in the factory noticed them upstairs. ”

"Team Chen, do those people look like reporters? I didn't see anyone with a camera. A security guard said to the man who spoke, and the man was one of the security captains in the factory.

"Hmph, Lao Tzu just stared at them from the small building behind them for a while, they pointed at our factory, look at the big sewage pipe behind us, maybe people have already taken some secret camera to shoot it, and now there are even pinhole cameras, you know what." The man in the lead smoked a cigarette and hummed, "Besides, where the birds don't and stink, do you usually have anyone who is full and walks around here?" ”

"Team Chen, people say that reporters are not easy to mess with, let's really fight?"

"Nonsense, you're afraid of a ball, the big boss in our factory has a hard background, what is it for us to beat a few reporters, maybe the boss is still happy, he is the most annoying reporter."

Chen Xing and a few people obviously didn't expect that they were just standing and talking, but disaster would fall from the sky, a few people in security uniforms carried batons, and after walking from afar, they suddenly shouted and cursed, and without saying a word, they rushed over with batons, and smashed people when they saw them.

Huang Jianghua was the closest, and he was hit with a stick all of a sudden, grinning in pain, Zeng Ping didn't expect a sudden accident, his eyes widened in fright, and he said angrily, "What are you doing, we are cadres in the city." ”

"Return the cadres in the city, it's you who beat you." The man named Team Chen shouted.

Zeng Ping was so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas went out of his body, he still didn't understand what was suddenly going on in front of him, such an arrogant security guard, he was the first time he saw it, he couldn't care about anything else, Zeng Ping shouted Mayor Chen to run quickly, for fear that Mayor Chen would be beaten, the four of them were empty-handed, but they couldn't fight with seven or eight security guards with batons, and the half-old man didn't know how to fight at all, except for Li Yong who was born in the armed police, Zeng Ping pondered that Chen Xing and Huang Jianghua were the same as him, and they could only be beaten.

"Mayor, are you alright?" Zeng Ping and the others ran to the road outside, and the security guards of the paper mill did not catch up again, Zeng Ping was already out of breath, and first looked at Chen Xing on the side.

"It's fine." Chen Xing waved his hand, he was better than Zeng Ping, but this would also be panting, looking in the direction of the paper mill, and said to Huang Jianghua on the side with a smile, "Secretary Huang, we don't seem to have been so wolfy." ”

"No, since Mayor Chen, you came to Nanzhou to serve as mayor, it seems that it is the first time that you have been beaten by someone." Huang Jianghua shook his head with a wry smile, spoke, touched the shoulder he had just been beaten, and bared his teeth, he was the most unlucky one today, the first one was beaten with a stick, and poor him, the mayor's secretary, was also beaten for the first time and fled.

"It's okay." Chen Xing knew that Huang Jianghua had been beaten just now, so he would also ask with concern.

"It's okay, a little skin trauma, at most it's bruises." Huang Jianghua shook his head.

Hearing this, Chen Xing nodded slightly.

Zeng Ping looked at Chen Xing, Chen Xing seemed to be smiling, but in that smile, there was more coldness.

"Mayor, why don't I call the police?" Zeng Ping inquired about Chen Xing's meaning.

"No, does it make sense to call the police over and go in and arrest a few security guards?" Chen Xing's expression was indifferent.

Zeng Ping was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, it doesn't make much sense to compare with a few security guards, the focus is to see the essence through the phenomenon, why do the security guards of several factories dare to be so rampant?

"Mayor, so let's leave today?" Zeng Ping frowned, looking in the direction of the paper mill, Zeng Ping had no doubt that if he and the others walked forward, the security guards of the factory would chase after him.

"Mayor, do you think these security guards are mistaken or misunderstood? Otherwise, why would they fight at us for no reason? Huang Jianghua said suspiciously.
