"Comrades, the development prospects of our Jinfu County are very good, and I believe that in the next few years, Jinfu County will definitely be able to take off the hat of a poor county. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Lu Rui faced the eyes of the Standing Committee members and talked eloquently, as if he was singing praises.

Li Minghua, the county party committee, smiled slightly: "Yes, these are all the achievements of the county magistrate after taking office, and they are the result of the joint efforts of the vast number of cadres and masses in Jinfu County." ”

Lu Rui surprisingly did not refute his kind of kind words, but continued to talk about the future development prospects of Jinfu County.

Li Minghua's brows gradually furrowed, he didn't understand which Lu Rui, who had been quiet recently, was singing today, he gave Lu Rui a small lesson through Hong Dabao's incident some time ago, this young doll county magistrate seems to have settled down a lot, I heard that many things involving Jixiang Township and other four townships in the government have been suppressed by him recently, Li Minghua thought that this Lu County Magistrate was ready to soften in front of Hong Dabao.

But today Lu Rui suddenly took the initiative to attack on the Standing Committee, what did he want to do?

"Comrades, this is a statistic submitted by the county labor bureau, which shows that a large number of migrant workers in Jinfu County returned to their hometowns last year, and after investigation, it was found that among the 1,258 migrant workers who returned to their hometowns, 1,021 had a high school education or less. Through the long-term survey of labor employment in Jinfu County, it is found that the labor force with a higher education level is more likely to find employment, and the income level is also significantly higher. Lu Rui said with a heavy face.

Raising the document in his hand, Lu Rui continued: "What does this mean?" This shows that only by improving the quality of the population can we really lift the masses out of poverty, and only by improving the education level of our county can we truly let future generations not suffer from the problem of poverty. ”

"County Magistrate Lu is right, but what do you mean?" Qin Yang, head of the organization department of the county party committee, frowned and raised the doubts in everyone's hearts.

With a smile, Lu Rui said calmly: "I propose to carry out education reform in the county, build schools, and let the children in the county have books to read, only in this way can the people of Jinfu County really live a good life." ”

Raising his eyebrows, Li Minghua, the county party committee, said: "The county magistrate's idea is good, but the county magistrate, you also know our financial difficulties, the investment in this education industry is too large, do you want to discuss with the city and apply for more funds?" ”

Lu Rui's face remained unchanged, as if he had expected Li Minghua to say this, and said lightly: "I don't think so, I have a plan here, please take a look." ”

As he spoke, Lu Rui simply stood up and handed out the stack of documents in his hand to the Standing Committee members one by one.

Looking at the documents handed over by Lu Rui, the Standing Committee members looked down, and after a while, they raised their heads with different faces.

"County magistrate, this is not appropriate, right?" Zhang Haiyan, director of the propaganda department of the county party committee, was the first to say in embarrassment.

Lu Rui said: "What's inappropriate?" ”

Zhang Haiyan's expression was very strange, and she pointed to the plan in her hand and said: "It says that we will promote fifteen years of free education in the county within three years, not to mention whether this can be realized, just the money needed for free education, it is estimated that our county finance will not be able to afford it, right?" ”

As soon as her words fell, Bao Dezhong, the political and legal committee, said: "Yes, and a comprehensive school will be built on it, including primary school, junior high school and high school, where does such a large amount of money come from?" ”

Lu Rui didn't speak, and Zuo Mei, the executive deputy county magistrate, said: "I think this is okay, education is the foundation of the country, and the education situation in our Jinfu County has been in a state of stagnation for a long time, which has caused the low education level of many people, which is extremely unfavorable to the economic development of the county." ”

Wang Qixin, the Party Committee of Jinfu Town, said: "Yes, Comrade Zuo Mei is right, children have no books to read, and they can only go out to work when they are teenagers, or they can only wander the streets and become a factor of social instability, comrades, this is very unfavorable to our work, I think this suggestion of the county magistrate is good, you can consider it." ”

Li Minghua's eyes gradually narrowed, for Lu Rui's proposal, to be honest, he did not object, after all, education is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, he Li Minghua also knows the benefits of this, but I don't know why, Li Minghua always feels that Lu Rui's plan seems to ignore something, and these things make Li Minghua have a bad premonition, think about it, after the Standing Committee members have spoken, he said calmly: "The country originally advocated compulsory education, this is no problem, However, if the education fee is to be waived for 15 years in the county, I am afraid that this will be a big burden on the county finances. ”

Lu Rui held the teacup and didn't speak, his fingers rubbed on the lid of the teacup, he knew that Li Minghua saw the key to the problem, and the next thing was the real argument.

"There will indeed be a lot of financial pressure, I asked the comrades of the Finance Bureau to estimate that for high school students alone, 800 yuan of tuition will be exempted per semester, 200 yuan of evening self-study tuition fees, and 2,000 yuan a year. This part of the money must be borne by the county finance, only free high school education, our Jinfu County finance to invest 4 million yuan every year, plus pre-school free education, boarding student living subsidies, egg and milk engineering, nutrition plan, etc., the county finance invests more than 1,300 yuan every year. ”

Lu Rui's voice was calm, since he had already said the plan, then he would talk about the issue of money.

"What? Thirteen million? Not only Li Minghua, but even Wang Qixin and others, who originally supported Lu Rui, also showed a shocked expression at this time, Lu Rui had only talked to Zuo Mei about this matter, and it was the first time that the others knew that this matter would cost so much investment.

Gu Hua, director of the county party committee office, was the first to jump out and said: "It's too much, county magistrate, this matter is a good thing, but this money is ......."

Needless to say, everyone understands the meaning of this, indeed, for Jinfu County, a poor place, it is unacceptable for many cadres to invest 13 million yuan a year in education, a place that has no results or achievements in the short term.

In many parts of China, most of the time officials would rather spend money on building some superficial face-saving projects, such as squares, pedestrian streets, or urban gardens, rather than invest money in education and civil affairs.

Lu Rui remembers that in his last life, he heard a classmate tell a joke in his hometown, every time the big flower bed in front of a supermarket in the center of the district is re-covered, it means that the main leaders in the district have changed, and the highest record is that it has been rebuilt three times in three years.

Therefore, Lu Rui had long been mentally prepared for Gu Hua's objections, he opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he didn't expect the deputy *** model worker of the county party committee to take the lead in opening his mouth.

The model worker snuffed out the cigarette he had been holding in his hand in the ashtray, and said with a harmless smile: "Let me say a few words, in fact, Director Gu's worries are also reasonable, the financial situation in our county is a little worse, and the plan proposed by the county magistrate needs to spend a lot of money every year, speaking of which, I have worked in Jinfu County for so many years, and I have also been in charge of the education department, but I am ashamed to say that I do not have the courage of the county magistrate, thinking about solving this problem for the children." ”

After a pause, he picked up Lu Rui's plan, looked at the content on it and smiled: "First of all, the free education above does not mean that everyone goes to school without spending a penny, although the tuition and miscellaneous fees are waived, but students have to pay five or six hundred yuan per semester for textbooks and learning materials, and residents have to pay 180 yuan per semester for accommodation." Second, we should pay attention to a question, that is, although our Jinfu County has a large population, what about the number of school-age students? According to this plan, we have less than 10,000 students in the county, and we include everyone from elementary school to high school, which greatly reduces financial investment. ”

Speaking, the model worker said: "According to the trend of population development, the source of school-age students in our Jinfu County will decrease year by year. Moreover, we have seen the situation in our county, the economy is developing, the county is also vigorously developing tourism, and local fiscal revenue will increase year by year. In this way, there will be less and less pressure to implement free education. ”

"Comrade Model Worker is very right, only by improving the quality of the population can we enable the masses to truly shake off poverty and become rich." Lu Rui glanced at the model worker gratefully and made a summary of his words.

As soon as his words fell, Qin Yang, the head of the organization department of the county party committee, said: "I don't think so, let's not talk about anything else, just these high school students, according to the meaning of the county magistrate Lu, we will provide them with free high school, not to mention, and we will give subsidies when they go to college, but what if they choose to work in the city after graduating from college and do not return to Jinfu County?" ”

"Yes, today's college students like to live in big cities with unfettered high incomes, how many of them are willing to return to the poor countryside of our Jinfu County?" Propaganda Minister Zhang Haiyan also said.

Lu Rui smiled calmly: "Minister Zhang also said that college students live with high income in big cities, so at least he should honor his parents, it stands to reason that even if college students do not return to work in our Jinfu County after graduation, they will send money to their families, and they will come back to honor their parents during the New Year's holiday, so that their family's life will improve, and the family will be lifted out of poverty." ”

With his fingers tapping lightly on the table, Lu Rui said lightly: "What's wrong with cultivating a student and lifting a family out of poverty?" ”
