The trip to the village was arranged by Zhao Guodong, Liu Siyuan probably took a look at it, and felt that the arrangement was very good, and it seemed that he had put some effort into it, so he didn't put forward too many opinions, and basically followed his plan.

From this, he also found that this Zhao Guodong did have some abilities, but unfortunately it has been buried in the town, and this time it was because he came over and served as his 'correspondent' that he had a chance to emerge.

In the same way, Ma Feng is too, I dare not say how strong his work ability is, and his image is a little obscene, but at least people can make the town party and government office impressive, and all kinds of things are arranged in an orderly manner, which is also a manifestation of ability, but even so, he is in his forties, and he is only a regular stock level, not even a regular state cadre. It is no wonder that it was often said in the past that grassroots cadres work the hardest and have the least opportunities for promotion.

According to Zhao Guodong's arrangement, Liu Siyuan visited a total of seven villages this time, after all, it is unrealistic to complete more than 30 villages at one time, and time and energy are not allowed. Therefore, Zhao Guodong selected the first batch of seven villages as typical according to his requirements, including relatively developed villages close to the town government, and economically backward villages that have no cement roads in the mountains.

Speaking of access roads, Beixi Town is engaged in the planning of cement roads through villages, and there are still five villages left that are not connected, which is also highlighted by the mayor Wu Weiqiang in his report on the work of the government, which Liu Siyuan also agreed, he himself is also from the county, and knows how important a simple highway is for a village.

The first village he was going to visit this time was Dayukou Village, one of the five villages that had not yet been connected to a concrete road. To Dayukou Village can not even sit in a car, can only take the village committee sent to pick him up special tricycle over, all the way the car is bumpy on the rugged dirt road, from the town to the village, in fact, it is less than 30 kilometers of the road, but drove a full hour and a half, speaking of the village in order to meet him as the secretary of the party committee, but also specially installed some mats on a tricycle, around so, when he entered the village, Liu Siyuan only felt that his internal organs were turned upside down, even walking was floating.

Wu Danian, the village party secretary and village head, came out with several members of the village committee, and they saw that Liu Siyuan looked like he was about to faint, so he quickly asked people to welcome him into the house, and after drinking hot ginger tea, Comrade Liu Siyuan, secretary of the town party committee, eased up a little.

He sighed and laughed at himself: "Secretary Wu, it seems that the matter of opening the cement road is urgent." ”

Wu Danian saw that he didn't put on a score, his expression became more natural, he had a loud voice, and said, "Isn't it?" Our whole village is looking forward to the cement road every day, and seeing that other villages are connected one after another, we are also anxious. Of course, the town has financial difficulties, and our village does not understand it...... But we can't transport so many peppercorns grown in our village......"

Liu Siyuan waved his hand and said: "I came this time to see how much impact this road has on our village, now you don't have to say anything, I understand, and Secretary Wu, I didn't come down this time to sit in the office for a meeting, I'm better now, you accompany me to the village for a walk." ”

Wu Danian said that it was no problem, but it was a little cold outside, and Liu Siyuan smiled and said that it was warm as he walked. The latter called a few staff members and walked out with Liu Siyuan and his party.

Although Dayukou Village is already a poor and remote village in Beixi and the traffic is extremely inconvenient, but unexpectedly the water conservancy facilities here are still well maintained, thinking that when the liberation was just now, under the call of the chairman, every village and every production brigade volunteered to participate in the construction of water conservancy facilities, but after the reform and opening up, this kind of voluntary labor is almost extinct, so that many water conservancy facilities in rural areas are in disrepair all year round, and the utilization rate of water conservancy facilities in many rural areas is getting lower and lower. However, it is very surprising that the water conservancy facilities in Dayukou Village are still playing a role in irrigating crops by nearly 100%.

"Mayor Wu has always attached great importance to the construction of water conservancy, and Deputy Mayor Yi has been focusing on water conservancy, and he has to come to the village once a month to inspect and organize everyone to build and maintain together." Wu Danian introduced as he walked.

"The town government has allocated a special amount of money for all villages to maintain water conservancy facilities." Ma Feng added on the side. "This is all in charge of Deputy Mayor Yi."

This time, Liu Siyuan went to the village for the first time to inspect the work, and did not bring any deputy mayor, but brought Ma Feng by name, which made him a little flattered, and he also worked hard along the way.

Liu Siyuan nodded and said: "Indeed, water conservancy irrigation can save a lot of effort and improve efficiency for villagers to do farm work, which is a great thing, and we must continue to maintain it." ”

Walking in the countryside, Liu Siyuan found a situation, that is, young adults are rarely seen in the line of sight, and almost all of the people working in the farmland are old people and preschool children playing in twos and threes. As a result, there is a shortage of labor, and many good farmlands are abandoned and overgrown with weeds, which is quite deplorable.

"The young ones all went out to work, those under the age of 30 went to the coastal areas at the forefront of reform and opening up, and the older ones worked in the province, such as the provincial capital or Ziwei City, and the rest were the elderly and children." Ma Feng saw his face and explained very interestingly.

Liu Siyuan nodded, there was nothing to say, the population was hollowed out, which was almost common to all rural areas. I can only sigh with emotion: "It's a little sad to see these fields being abandoned." ”

"Secretary Liu, the key problem is that farming is really not profitable now." Wu Danian said loudly: "Not to mention part-time work, last year we have returned dozens of acres of farmland to forest, whether it is planting some green forests or timber forests, they also earn more than farming." You see, these fields used to be planted with double cropping rice, but now they are only planted with one crop......"

"Old Wu, you're not right with this idea." Ma Feng suddenly interrupted Wu Danian's words with a straight look and said: "The town has strict regulations on abandonment, and the red line of cultivated land must be guaranteed to ......."

"Director Ma, I understand the truth." Wu Danian sighed, "No, the village implements a fine system, and whoever abandons the land will be punished." After a pause, he said: "So everyone wants to return farmland to forests now......

Liu Siyuan felt that it was inappropriate for him not to speak at this time, so he could only say: "Lao Wu, we can understand the difficulties in the village, and the town will also focus on the issue of abandonment and 'hollowing', but Director Ma is right, you don't forget that the state has arrangements and clear regulations for rural work, and these bottom lines must not be touched, and the village cadres must also give full play to their subjective initiative and work together to find a way." ”

Liu Siyuan said harshly, but in his heart he was quite sympathetic to the peasants, a few days after coming out of Dayukou Village, he visited several villages, the situation of the villages closer to the town center is a little different, although the phenomenon of population 'hollowing' is still strict, and the abandonment of land is also widespread, but the peasants here are not particularly poor, mainly thanks to the compensation for land acquisition in the urbanization process of Beixi Town in recent years. However, this has also bred new problems, due to the lack of spiritual life, many farmers who have become rich overnight by land expropriation are suddenly at a loss, lose motivation, and social problems such as gambling have also quietly emerged.

In addition to the excellent maintenance of water conservancy facilities in Nord Stream Town, there is another aspect that impresses him very much, that is, education. It is said that after Wu Weiqiang became the mayor of the town, he has been promoting the centralization of educational resources, concentrating primary and secondary schools in the center of the town.

In addition, the Government has funded a glass of milk per day for primary and secondary school students and a free lunch for secondary school students every day. In general, this policy is quite popular with the people. This is also in line with the mainstream values and stream of consciousness of the whole Qianhu Province, unlike some other provinces, in Qianhu Province, the general education issue is very important, even the rural people believe that the best way out for their children to go to university, so they are more willing to spend on education.

After several days of investigation, Liu Siyuan also has a preliminary understanding of Beixi Town, the general old said, Beixi Town is a relatively developed and wealthy township, especially after visiting several villages, Liu Siyuan continued to visit the two industrial parks, but also felt that this northern Hubei town really has some unique advantages, especially the traffic location, is the intersection of highways in four provinces, extending in all directions, and there are mature automobile and machinery industries around, and it can even be said that some businesses must fight. Therefore, the economy of Beixi Town is second only to Chengguan Town, where the county government is located, and ranks second in Chengen County, and even the gap between the two is very small.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, it turned out that Wu Weiqiang was still a good mayor, and this time he was in trouble.
