The uneven development of Xinghua has always been a headache for Duan Zetao, and how to deal with the problem of coordinated development of urban and rural economy, Duan Zetao also talked about some of his ideas in the "Jiangnan Province Rural Economic Development Ideas Report" handed over to Zhao Xiangyang, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, but how to choose a suitable industry in combination with the actual situation of Xinghua has not found a suitable way.

Some time ago, because he was busy with the "utopia" project and the development zone, Duan Zetao has not had the energy to consider the development of Xinghua's agricultural economy, but after all, he is a Xinghua person, and he also went to Xinghua to conduct research when he wrote the "Jiangnan Province Rural Economic Development Ideas Report", so he is still clear about the situation of Xinghua's agricultural development.

Xinghua's advantage is that the geographical location is good, the transportation is convenient, and it is located in the south, the temperature is relatively high throughout the year, the sunshine and water resources are relatively rich, the disadvantage is that the soil is not fertile enough, and the insect pests are also more serious, Xinghua County has also organized farmers to plant some cash crops before, because the harvest is not very good because of the pests, so the people's enthusiasm for planting cash crops is not high.

At present, the cities of the country are developing at a high speed, and they also attach great importance to urban landscape and greening, which has prompted a huge demand for the flower and seedling market, but the seedling production areas of the country are relatively scattered, and there is no scale, and the market gap in this area is still relatively large, which contains huge business opportunities.

Xinghua's high temperature throughout the year, sunshine and abundant water resources are very suitable for the growth of seedlings, and the insect resistance of seedlings is also stronger than that of general cash crops, and Xinghua's geographical location is good, and the characteristics of convenient transportation will also make the logistics cost relatively low, which is very suitable for the development of green seedling industry, especially once the "utopia" project is launched, it also needs a huge number of flowers and seedlings, and the hype of the "utopia" project will also greatly enhance Xinghua's popularity in the country. Now is the best time to cut into the seedling industry!

Duan Zetao sent Pei away, and hurried back to Xinghua County, where he took Liu Chunhua, Tian Xinguo, deputy county magistrate of the Standing Committee in charge of agriculture, and Peng Guangguang, director of the Agricultural Bureau, to investigate and investigate on the same day.

Xinghua's "Village-to-Village" road project is still very good, basically paved with cement pavement, but the crops on both sides of the road are not growing, the leaves are drooping, and the top is full of dense wormholes, and there are not a few farmers working in the fields, and many fields are simply barren and overgrown with deep weeds.

Finally saw an old farmer in front of him who was fertilizing the crops in the field with a sad face, Duan Zetao stopped the convoy, walked over, and asked the old farmer cordially: "Uncle, is the harvest okay?" ”。

When the old farmer saw that they all got off the car, and at first glance it was the senior official who came down from above, he was a little restrained, and some were at a loss and didn't know how to answer, and Peng Guangguang, director of the Agricultural Bureau, scolded him impatiently: "This is the county secretary Duan, and I will answer you well!" The old peasant was so frightened that he didn't know how to answer.

Duan Zetao glared at Peng Guangda dissatisfiedly, and said sternly: "Director Peng, what kind of attitude do you have?!" The common people are our food and clothing parents, not your subordinates who let you scold at will! I doubt that you can do a good job in agriculture with such an attitude, so you should go back first! Write out your Agricultural Bureau's work plan for this year and come back to me! ”。

Peng Guangda originally wanted to show that he didn't want the horse's fart to be slapped on the horse's leg, his face was flushed, so he had to go back first in panic. Duan Zetao took out the Hibiscus King cigarette from his pocket, handed one to the old farmer, and said with a smile: "Uncle, don't be nervous, we don't mean anything else, just to find your old man to chat and chat!" ”。

The old farmer saw that Duan Zetao was very approachable, and drove the very fierce official away, so he was not so afraid of Duan Zetao, took the cigarette and chatted with Duan Zetao about family life, after smoking Duan Zetao's cigarettes, the old farmer felt a little embarrassed, so he took out the homemade flue-cured tobacco from his pocket and asked Duan Zetao to smoke.

Duan Zetao was happy when he saw it, and said happily: "This is good, this is strong!" After smoking a cigarette, the distance between the two was shortened, and Duan Zetao asked about the harvest again.

The old farmer sighed and said: "Don't mention it, this crop is becoming more and more unplantable, not to mention that the harvest is not good, pesticides and fertilizers are rising vigorously, and the harvest money is not enough to buy pesticides and fertilizers!" Now people don't have the heart to get crops, and the young people in the village have gone out to work, and you don't see a lot of land left there......."

Duan Zetao nodded, turned his head to Liu Chunhua and others on the side and said: "China is a big agricultural country after all, and the rural population also accounts for a large proportion of the national population, so the development of industry is important, but agriculture must not be left behind, how to improve the income and enthusiasm of the peasant masses is a problem we must solve!" ……”。

Liu Chunhua nodded and said: "Yes, the current problem of land waste is very common in our province, Xinghua is relatively close to western Guangdong Province, young ** have gone to western Guangdong Province to work, and those who stay at home are some old people and children, young and strong laborers are very small, not only the yield of crops is declining year after year, but also brings social problems such as empty nesters and left-behind children......

Bidding farewell to the old farmer, Duan Zetao and the others visited some farmers again, and the situation reflected was similar to that of the old farmer, Duan Zetao's brows couldn't help frowning, "Let's go, let's go to the village to have a look!" Duan Zetao waved his hand.

Came to the village branch, this is a dilapidated red brick house, the paint of the village branch hanging at the door has fallen off, the patent leather mottled appearance looks a little old, the wall of the village is still painted with the slogan of "Agricultural Village", the color has also fallen off and the handwriting is a little blurred, there are a few pieces of glass on the glass window have fallen, and it is full of cobwebs, obviously no one has been here for a few days.

Duan Zetao's brows furrowed even tighter, and the accompanying township chief hurriedly called the village party secretary, and after a while, he saw an old farmer in his fifties, full of wrinkles and a very old man, sweating profusely, stepping on a dilapidated bicycle speeding over.

The old farmer got out of the car, and the accompanying township chief hurriedly introduced: "Secretary Duan, this is the village party secretary in this village called Liao Zhongfu, Liao branch secretary, and Secretary Duan from the county has come to see you!" ……”。

Liao Zhongfu heard that the secretary of the county party committee came to see him in person, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, he was so nervous, Duan Zetao wanted to shake hands with him, he quickly wiped his hand on his clothes, and said excitedly: "Secretary Duan is good!" You're the biggest official in our village! The township chief glared at him unhappily, and was about to reprimand him, but when he thought of the fate of Peng Guangguang, director of the Bureau of Agriculture, just now, he quickly retracted it.

Duan Zetao warmly held Liao Zhongfu's hand and said with a smile: "Secretary Liao, I'm not invited, I'm causing you trouble, I want to learn from you about the situation in your village, can you gather all the cadres and party members in your village, and let's have a symposium?!" ”。

Liao Zhongfu scratched his head a little embarrassed and said: "I'm going to inform you, but the village department hasn't been used for a long time, and it's very dirty inside, why don't you go to my house for a meeting?!" ”。

Duan Zetao insisted on holding a symposium in the village, Liao Zhongfu had to take out the key to open the door, the door lock was already rusty, Liao Zhongfu opened the door for a long time before opening the door, as soon as he opened the door, a musty smell rushed to his face, a skinny mouse squeaked and ran out of it, the room was also full of cobwebs, the conference table made of several wooden tables was covered with a thick layer of dust, and there were several portraits of the founding leaders on the wall.

Duan Zetao rolled up his sleeves and said to Liao Zhongfu, who was standing at a loss at the door: "Secretary Liao, you hurry up and notify the cadres and party members in the village to come to the meeting, and I will help you with hygiene!" ”。

Liao Zhongfu hurriedly said: "How can this be made!" How does this make! Secretary Duan, you sit outside for a while, and I'll call someone to clean up immediately! Duan Zetao waved his hand and said, "What's wrong with this!" We sit in the office every day, and we work hard! You'd better go and tell someone to have a meeting! ”。

Liao Zhongfu had to go to inform people, Duan Zetao found a bamboo pole and tied a bamboo broom to it, and it really sanitized, Fang Dongmin hurriedly said: "Boss, let's come, you rest on the side for a while......", Duan Zetao insisted on refusing, Fang Dongmin had to go find a rag and beat a bucket of water by himself, and began to wipe the table.

The secretary of the county party committee moved, and the others were not idle, so they found tools and began to clean up, these people are all pampered and accustomed, rarely do this kind of rough work, and make a mess one by one, but finally clean up.

After a while, Liao Zhongfu came back with a few village cadres, and when he saw the disgraced appearance of the leaders, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he hurriedly went to the farmer's house on the side to fetch water and wash the faces of the leaders.

Duan Zetao saw that the village cadres were all elderly people and women, and the number of party members added up to less than ten, so he asked Liao Zhongfu: "Liao branch secretary, have all the people arrived?!" ”。

Liao Zhongfu blushed and said: "All the people at home have arrived, and some of them have gone to work, but they can't come!" ”。

At the beginning, the village cadres and party members were a little restrained, they didn't dare to speak, the atmosphere was a little dull, Duan Zetao stood up, took out a cigarette and scattered it around, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, if you have anything to say, I'm not a tiger, and I won't eat people's ......."

The village cadres and party members all laughed, and saw that Duan Zetao was indeed different from other officials, so they opened the conversation and began to complain, some complained that the subsidies of village cadres were too low, only a few dozen yuan a month, some said that pesticides and fertilizers were too expensive, and the government should give subsidies, and some said that the government's apportionment tasks were too heavy and unbearable, Duan Zetao listened carefully while recording in his notebook, but his brows furrowed even tighter.
