Chapter 428: Donations

PS: Thanks to the professional demon cultivators for the tip!

It took a whole morning for everyone to dredge this section of the road, and on the other end, because of the bulldozers and excavators sent down from the town, the speed was much faster.

Originally, there were also many places in the town where such a situation occurred, but Mayor Ye and the others still concentrated their efforts first to dredge the section to Chujiazhai. Who made this the egg-laying hen in town? In the previous year, fifty percent of the town's financial revenue came from Chujiazhai. And it's growing rapidly. The main reason is that the tax revenue of several enterprises in Chujiazhai is huge. In addition, there are many bigwigs with Chu Jiaqiang.

After the road was cleared, tourists began to circulate. Many tourists who came down from the town saw the flood, which only lasted three hours before receding, but it was so large that the streets were flooded more than half a meter deep. When the flood waters receded, a layer of silt of more than 20 centimeters was left behind.

"This time, the leaders of the town had a headache. I don't know how the people are affected? Xu Qian said with a frown.

The streets in the town are not very low, even there are immersed half a meter deep, and it is predictable that some of the lower lying places downstream are estimated to be one or two stories high!

"The people in the government are all in action, right?" Elder Hong asked Elder Wan.

Although they have retired, they are still very concerned about these situations, especially matters related to the safety of people's lives and property.

"I heard that even the city has come down to rescue teams." Chu Jiaqiang listened to what Ah Sheng said. He sent his father-in-law to the town before, and he also knew a little about the situation.

"Now is not the time for accountability. The most important thing is to try to rescue. Property losses should not be counted first, and the lives of the people should be ensured first. Wan Lao said in a heavy tone.

Just now, some tourists who came down from the town said that it was quite serious, and their hearts were raised, and they were very worried.

"What's going on with that reservoir in the town next door? After the fact, it is necessary to investigate clearly and give an explanation to the masses. If it is really a tofu scum project, all those involved in this project must be held accountable. "Elder Hong is very dissatisfied with some of the people in power now. The state has allocated so much money to benefit the people. It was eaten up by some moths, and it really deserved to die!

Chu Jiaqiang and the others sneered, which reminded them of a fable. It is said that in ancient times, a peasant picked up a rare gem and wanted to give it to the king first, but the gem was constantly replaced, and finally fell into the hands of the king, which was a silver ingot. The king was very moved and presented the peasants with a golden egg, but exploited layer by layer. In the end, there was only one egg left in the hands of the farmer, but the farmer was still moved to tears.

Both in ancient times. Even now, many officials still can't get rid of the bad habits that officials have always had, and they are always insatiable.

In the afternoon, Wan Lao and others got the first-hand information in their hands. Above are the casualties and approximate losses caused by the flood. Fortunately, although the house was washed away a lot, the damage was huge. But the flood only arrived in the morning, and it didn't sneak up at night when everyone was sleeping, so many people were injured. But there are no deaths and disappearances, which is a blessing in misfortune.

"The relevant compensation work must be done well, and the responsible unit of the dam must be strictly investigated! Give a satisfactory explanation to the masses. Wan Lao spoke.

"Hmmm! The leaders of the city have already sent an investigation team to the next town, and it is believed that the results will be obtained soon. Mayor Ye nodded hurriedly. It was only at this time that he returned, and he had to go out to visit the villagers in the hardest-hit villages.

As for the associated losses. The town has also sent people to investigate, and after the statistics are completed, they are ready to crusade against the hydropower station. This incident has already been recognized, and the dam was built by a private hydropower plant. So far, it has been less than five years to complete.

As soon as the news broke that the villages along the river were badly damaged, the town's businesses immediately took the initiative to donate. First, the mineral water company donated 200,000 yuan, then the handicraft production company donated 100,000 yuan, and Yan Tianzhi also donated 50,000 yuan in the name of the factory.

Subsequently, Ye Jisheng learned of the situation and spent 200,000 yuan from the rafting project. Liang Yu and others' Guanyan Tower also donated 200,000 yuan, and Chen Wu's underground labyrinth that had not yet opened was also 100,000 yuan. That's 850,000 yuan, which is also the highest corporate disaster relief donation ever received in Heqian Town.

After the company, there are also individual donations organized by tourists. Although everyone didn't donate a lot, one or two hundred, or even a few dollars, they were all a heart.

Among them, the leaders are Jackton and several gringos. The three of them donated a total of 3 million, which can calm many people, even those companies are not so wealthy. Take the mineral water plant, for example! Today, the monthly turnover is more than 5 million, but it is not just throwing out millions.

Seeing a few caring tourists passing by the door with love donation boxes, Chu Jiaqiang personally donated 200,000 yuan, Zhou Furong gave 50,000 yuan, and Li Quan also gave 50,000 yuan.

"I'm ashamed to let you initiate this kind of thing!" Chu Jiaqiang said.

"Huh! It's okay! It's good that everyone has a heart, and we are also idle and have nothing to do, so it can be regarded as a small help to the people in the disaster area! The main thing is to have the strong support of your big money! Just now, the notice in the town was also announced, and the people lost more than 10 million. This seems like a lot of us, but the gap in the middle is still very big! The young man with the donation box in his hand spoke.

He is the vice president of the school's love club, and this is not the first time he has done this kind of work. Of course, every time you accept donations, you must first ask for permission from the government or school, otherwise, it will be regarded as illegal and unreasonable.

"There are already quite a few, and there is a hydropower station in the back, and according to the negotiations, the government seems to want them to compensate 12 million, and with these donations, they should also be able to compensate the masses for their losses." Chu Jiaqiang said.

Mayor Ye had already revealed to him just now that the relevant negotiation work was already being carried out intensively.

The man nodded: "So far, we have received more than three million and four million private donations, plus more than 800,000 for enterprises. ”

It's also the biggest donation he's ever received, and it's the first time he's had that much money in his hands, and it's a really complicated feeling.

In the evening, the town government counted nearly five million donations, which surprised them. Not to mention them, the leaders in the city who came down to comfort the people affected by the disaster also felt incredible, even in the urban area, it is not easy to collect so many donations.

"It seems that the development of Heqian Town has become unstoppable!" The leaders sighed. It can be said that the tourism development of Chujiazhai is the most successful model in the city, which has led to the rapid development of the entire region.

According to the tax statistics for the second half of last year, the fiscal revenue of Heqian Town was more than 8 million. Then, it is more than 10 million a year, and even according to the current development trend, it is not difficult to break through 20 million. And the tax revenue of the whole city is only a little more than 100 million, and most of it comes from the urban area. These towns, which have not been poured in, have already burned incense.
