Chapter 72: Tang Haitian Arrives
After dinner, Liu Jun didn't bend his tongue to read Lao Maozi's words in a hurry, and picked up the "N Province Newspaper" first. It's a must-have. Naturally, Lao Maozi's words can't be put down. Mr. Zhou grasped these words very tightly, forcing him to improve his Russian level to a higher level. Mr. also had a hunch that he would not stay in Xiangyang County for too long. Liu Jun has a foundation in literature and history, and he can grow slowly in the future. As soon as Lao Maozi left, he was afraid that he would not be able to find a decent teacher in Yangyang County, and he was afraid that he would be abandoned. There is no teacher to teach this foreign language speaking thing, and there is no repeater machine, and it is not ordinarily difficult to be self-taught. Thinking about it, Mr. is also a painstaking worker, and Liu Jun is also quite conscious, adding some pressure to himself every night.
When we look at party newspapers, we mainly look at the guidance of public opinion. Since General Wen Yi publicly wrote an article in August criticizing the propaganda work in N Province, many bigwigs of his rank have expressed their positions, but most of them are in opposition to him. Basically, the collision of two ideologies has divided the winner and loser. Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai scored one point steadily.
Yoo Jun put down the newspaper and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that without the intervention of external forces, history will still move along a fixed trajectory.
At about seven o'clock, Liu Jin returned. There was another person who came with him, and when he saw this person, Liu Jun couldn't help but show a surprised look. Along with Liu Jincai was Tang Haitian, deputy director of the county revolutionary committee in charge of agricultural work.
Ruan Bixiu was stunned for a moment, and immediately got up with a smile to greet her, somewhat excited. Three months ago, Tang Haitian was still a figure we needed to look up to. In the past, Tang Haitian and Yan Yucheng had a team in the county agricultural bureau, and it seemed that Yan Yucheng was still Tang Haitian's superior. Now that he has become a superior again, Tang Haitian will not be too unconvinced by Yan Yucheng. However, Liu Jincai's qualifications are far behind, so it is natural for Ruan Bixiu and Liu Jun to be surprised by Tang Haitian's initiative to come to the door.
Tang Haitian greeted Ruan Bixiu with a smile.
He was a little older, and his name was "Brother and Sister". This "brother and sister" is very article, at least it shows a kind of closeness. With Tang Haitian's qualifications, it is very rare to have such a posture.
Looking at Liu Jincai's appearance, it seems to be very casual, and he calls Tang Haitian "Old Tang", not the serious "Director Tang". Tang Haitian nodded in agreement, without the slightest annoyance, and called "Jincai" casually.
How this trick changed is puzzling.
Liu Jun looked at his father's eyes with a little admiration. It is said that our Lao Tzu was born as a technical cadre and has a simple mind, and now it seems that at least this means of entrapping people is very good. After Wang Benqing, Zheng Xingyun, and Cui Xiuhe were transferred, among all the deputy directors of the county revolutionary committee, only Tang Haitian was quite powerful, and Liu Jincai, who was suddenly raised by the army for no reason, grabbed the ranking of "first deputy director", and the breathlessness in his heart can be imagined. In just three months, Liu Jin was able to get along with him in this role, whether it was a superficial component or not, it was a great achievement.
Ruan Bixiu was busy for a while, the tea, melon seeds and candies were complete, and she asked, "Has Director Tang eaten?" If you don't have to eat, will you eat it here? ”
Tang Haitian waved his hand: "Don't bother your younger siblings." We had a meeting in the afternoon, and some things were not explained thoroughly, so I dealt with Jin Cai in the canteen of the agency, chatting while eating. ”
Liu Jun didn't feel a little strange, Tang Haitian was in charge of agriculture, what was the matter with Guan Liu Jincai? After the meeting, I went to the cafeteria to eat and chat, and I ran to the house to continue chatting if I couldn't finish the conversation? Director Tang is suspected of finding the wrong object. If you want to talk about this matter, you have to talk to Yan Yucheng, the number one. Now aside from Yan Yucheng, the second and third leaders of them are muttering together, but it is very taboo. Liu Jincai shouldn't have fallen for someone else's strategy to sow discord, right?
According to such an obvious mistake, Liu Jin would not make it. I'm afraid that he is overconfident in his relationship with Yan Yucheng, and sometimes neglects the details. Yoo Joon decided to give a reminder.
"Dad, what about Uncle Yan, why haven't you seen him in the past two days?"
Liu Jincai replied casually: "Your Uncle Yan went to the region for a meeting." ”
"Oh."
Yoo Jun nodded.
Tang Haitian glanced at Liu Jun, which was quite meaningful.
"Jincai, the current situation in the rural areas of the county is not optimistic. In 1953, the county's per capita grain output exceeded 1,000 catties, but last year it dropped to less than 700 catties, a decrease of one-third. Last year, the per capita ration was only more than 330 catties, and the per capita production of oil products in five or three years was 10 catties and 5 taels, but last year it dropped to 3 catties and 2 taels.......
After Tang Haitian glanced at it, he threw Liu Jun, a little kid, aside, and continued to talk to Liu Jincai, looking worried.
Liu Jincai nodded: "Yes, the income of the members is too low." ”
Although Liu Jincai was born in the countryside, he has participated in the work for many years, and he is not familiar with the situation in the countryside, but only echoes it.
Tang Haitian said: "It's not just too low, it's simply unsustainable. Each laborer is only worth three or four cents, the average cash income of each household is less than 50 yuan, and the number of households that overspend and owe money reaches nearly 2,000...... Do you know, Jincai, last year the county owed more than 13 million yuan in loans to the state, and the per capita arrears were nearly 30 yuan......
"Insolvent!"
Liu Jincai has not yet come to his senses, and Liu Jun has already blurted out.
Tang Haitian, Liu Jincai, and Ruan Bixiu stared at him with six eyes.
Liu Jun didn't bother to pay attention to their strange gazes at this time, but was deeply shocked by the data reported by Tang Haitian. The decline in grain production and oil production is still a large number, and there is no intuitive feeling. The latter set of income and arrears data is too intuitive. The per capita cash income of each household is less than 50 yuan, and the per capita cash income is only 123 yuan according to the calculation of four people in each household. This means that the entire Xiangyang County has become insolvent. The people of the county worked hard for a year, and the income turned out to be negative.
The business of the Limin Maintenance Department is booming, it seems that the people's living standards are quite high, and the consumption requirements of household appliances are quite strong, which makes Liu Jun hallucinate and feel that the memory of this period in his previous life has deviated. It feels like life is still passable, compared to the later life, it is simpler, and it is not particularly short of food and clothing.
Now after listening to Tang Haitian's data, I realized that this was a cruel illusion. Xiangyang Town is the political and economic center of the county, and more than half of the county's staff who eat imperial grain are concentrated here, and its living standard is by no means comparable to that of ordinary towns. Second, Liu Jun has the foresight of the traverser and the technology of electrician maintenance, and he has exploited the loopholes in the system, and belongs to the people who "get rich first". With his current wealth, he can definitely be called a big "rich" man in Xiangyang County. There is a difference of 108,000 miles from the life of a real ordinary member, where can you experience the pain of 123 yuan in cash income a year?
Liu Jun shook his head as he thought.
"If this continues, the entire Xiangyang County will go bankrupt......"
"Jun, don't talk nonsense."
Ruan Bixiu hurriedly stopped, and glanced at Tang Haitian vigilantly. Theoretically, this person should be Yoo Jincai's political enemy, who knows if he will spread the word? I don't know how he will get it out. If Yoo Jun said this kind of thing on other occasions, maybe it didn't matter. However, if you say it in front of Yoo Jincai at home and spread it to others, you don't know what it will become. The guy with ulterior motives will definitely point the finger at Yoo Jincai.
"Brother and sister, Xiaojun is right."
Tang Haitian let out a long sigh.
"If Xiangyang County is compared to a big factory, we are indeed bankrupt...... Nearly 30 years have passed since liberation, and even the most basic food and clothing problems for our members have not yet been solved......
Liu Jincai nodded silently.
Suddenly, Liu Jun understood why Liu Jincai was able to handle the relationship with Tang Haitian. This Deputy Director Tang, like Yan Yucheng, has the blood of worrying about the country and the people in his body, and he is the same person as Liu Jincai.
The so-called things gather by like, and people are divided by groups.
Party members and cadres who have the people in their hearts will come together after all. The so-called ranking order is just a trivial matter. Liu Jun never doubted the party surnames and character of Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai, and felt that Xiangyang County would definitely be able to make a big change under the leadership of the two of them. Now with Tang Haitian, the members of Xiangyang County have hope.
After graduating from high school in my last life, I basically left Xiangyang County to wander outside, and I came back to live in the winter and summer vacations in college for two or three months. But Xiangyang County has always been Liu Jun's hometown and the last harbor in the depths of his soul. Liu Jun naturally hopes that she can become rich and strong.
Since we are fortunate enough to be reborn, we must do our best in this matter.
Thinking of this, Liu Jun unconsciously felt a little excited: "Since you see the problem, you have to find a way to solve it." ”
"Then according to you, how should we solve it?"
Tang Haitian asked with a smile. At this moment, he resumed his identity as the deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee, and his tone was calm, not slow or unhurried.
Liu Jun looked at his father, and then at Tang Haitian, and said with a smile: "Solving the people's suffering is the business of the superiors. Uncle Tang is actually already in his chest, so why bother asking about children? ”
"Xiao Jun......" Liu Jincai scolded with a smile, and explained to Tang Haitian with a smile: "This kid, he likes to joke with me like this, don't be weird Old Tang." ”
Tang Haitian had never comprehended Liu Jun's "genius", and what he said just now was just a casual question. Seeing that he was in a chapter, he was naturally quite surprised. But at his age, he can't always grind mushrooms with a little kid.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's really a tiger father without a dog. Jincai, don't be too long-winded with me, let's talk casually first, see if we can sort out an idea, wait for Director Yan to come back, and then report to him and ask him to decide. ”
This was very decent, Liu Jincai smiled and nodded yes.
"Seeing that in the slack season, many families are about to run out of food, and last year the central government called for a large-scale construction of farmland, and I think this year we can still do it again, at least ...... Let everyone have a place to eat. ”
It is said that there is an explanation for the origin of the pyramids: it is said that the pharaoh in power found a large project to send back the grain stored in the treasury in order to let the common people have food to eat during their idle season.
Regardless of whether this statement can stand up to scrutiny, Tang Haitian has this meaning right now.
Liu Jincai said: "This method is good, but it can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause." You can't give out relief food every year, right? The grain depot in the county is also not abundant. ”
Tang Haitian smiled bitterly: "Isn't it just not rich? Jincai, you didn't have long since you arrived, and you don't know the county's family background. Last year, the county was in arrears of more than 10 million catties of grain requisition, which was almost half of the county's public grain requisition task. ”
"Huh?"
Liu Jin is full of little stars.
Wang Benqing and Zheng Xingyun, these two guys, know intrigue all day long, what have they done serious work? Half of the requisition of grain is in arrears!
Tang Haitian nodded, meaning that he did not report false figures.
"I also know that this is tantamount to handing out relief food. But if you don't send it, you can't do it, right now, in the four communes in Shanbei, there are many households who can't open the pot. ”
The Shanbei area is the biggest burden of Xiangyang County. There are four communes under the jurisdiction of the whole district, all of which are shaved in the cracks of stones. The Hongqi Commune had several brigades in the Shanbei area, which did not let Yan Yucheng worry less. It was still on the edge of the northern part of the mountain, much better than a few communes in the center. Any cadre who makes a mistake or is not in the right direction with those in power will faint to death on the spot as soon as he hears the phrase "transferred to Shanbei District."
That's where real birds don't, and there's nowhere to spend money.
Liu Jun also frowned when he heard this. Rao is Liu Yanei's natural "wisdom", and when he encounters such an area where food and clothing have not been solved after 20 years, there is also the meaning that the tiger has no way to eat the sky. He didn't have anything to draw on, and his knowledge of agriculture was so poor.
After thinking about it, Liu Jun's head was hot, and he wanted to donate the brick making machine. Fortunately, I reined in the precipice and endured it in time. This thing, it's not time to show its bottom yet. However, the brick making machine inspired my thinking.
"Uncle Tang, is Shanbei District full of stone mountains?"
"Yes, there are many rocks and little land, and the per capita arable land is less than seven points, so it is a big problem to be relieved every year."
"I don't know what color the stone mountain is there?"
Yoo Jun muttered softly, as if talking to himself.
"Cyan, what's wrong?"
"Cyan, that's limestone." Liu Jun's eyes lit up: "Isn't the Daping thermal power plant under construction now?" But it needs a lot of cement and lime. Limestone is also used for laying the footing. ”
Limestone can be used to make cement and burn lime, and Tang Haitian and Liu Jincai both know this knowledge. It is not difficult to know that most of the rocky mountains in Shanbei District are made of limestone. The key is that Tang Haitian is in charge of agriculture, and Liu Jincai is in charge of propaganda, and they have not bothered in this regard. In any case, this cement-making lime always belongs to the industrial category, and the so-called "not in its position does not seek its own government". As for the sudden connection between the stone mountain in Shanbei District and the construction of the Daping thermal power plant, it is even more incredible.
Liu Jincai and Tang Haitian looked at each other, and their eyes lit up.
