Chapter 165: Buying the Toll Gate
All the work in the county has been carried out in an orderly manner, the arrears of wages and the medical expenses of the veteran cadres who have not been reimbursed have been paid, and the funds of the public security bureau and other administrative bureaus have also been repaid. Although the request for donations caused an uproar, there was no resistance or complaint.
After the donations were collected, Wuyang and Secretary Long went to the Municipal Highway Bureau together. The first and second leaders of the Highway Bureau received them, and after Secretary Long explained his intentions, the director said: "Secretary Long, we also know about the donation you have in the county. But we won't sell it to you at a reduced price until we get back the money we invested in the road. ”
Wuyang smiled and said, "May I ask the director, how much can you charge every day now?" ”
The director said: "There are about 3,000 cars passing by at that toll station every day, and the toll is about 30,000 yuan. ”
"Director, how many staff do you have at the toll booth, and what are the labor costs?" Wuyang asked.
"There are 30 staff members in that station, and the monthly salary, bonus, plus transportation expenses and other subsidies, is about 7,000 yuan per person."
"Director, that road is already in such bad condition, when are you going to repair it? If it is repaired once, how much investment is required? Wuyang asked again.
"We plan to repair it next summer, 11 kilometers, no less than 11 million." said the director.
"How much money would it cost to widen the highway to six lanes in both directions?"
If that were the case, it would be a bottomless number. Land requisition, demolition and road construction are not counted all at once. The director said.
Wuyang said: "Two bureau chiefs, now this highway has hindered the economic development of our county. It is imperative to widen and repair. If you can be accommodating. That would be a huge support for us. In fact, on the other hand, it is also to get rid of a burden for your bureau. As we just said, the monthly charge is about 1 million, the labor cost is 200,000, and you can charge 10 million in a year. If the municipality requests the widening of the road. I estimate that each kilometer is about 10 million, so you need to charge for 11 years, of course, the higher authorities will definitely allocate funds when building roads, but it is impossible to allocate the full amount, right? This is the second one; The state may cancel the tolls on these provincial roads one day, and you must implement them unconditionally, which is the third; We are all party cadres, and no one can guarantee that we will work in a unit for a lifetime, if the two directors can now grab some cash in their hands, they can also seek benefits for the employees of their own units, right? ”
The director smiled and said, "County Magistrate Li, what you said is also reasonable. Let's take a look at it in our bureau first. Then report to the municipal government and provincial bureau to give you a satisfactory answer as soon as possible. As for funding. It's not easy to see you, so let's set a 6.6 million, 66 Shun. May we be successful in our future work. ”
Secretary Long stood up and said with a smile: "Then thank you so much." In the future, when the situation in the county improves, I will invite you to drink and invite you to the farmhouse to play. ”
"Okay, well, we will definitely come to visit and study when the time comes." The two directors also stood up to see off the guests.
On the way back to the county seat, Secretary Long said: "Xiao Li, I didn't expect the matter to be solved so easily, you can really speak well." ”
"Secretary Long, although this matter may be resolved, we must consider how to return the salaries of civil servants to them."
"This is easy to do, the higher authorities stipulate that where conditions permit, civil servants can pay an extra month's salary, our county has not implemented it, we have money next year, we will make up for this year, as well as rural expenses and various subsidies, the county has not issued it in the past, and we can make up for this year next year." Secretary Long said.
"If that's the case, we don't have to think about being sorry for civil servants." Wu Yang smiled.
Secretary Long said: "Is your house renovated now?" When are you going to move your home? ”
"Secretary Long, I haven't gotten married and started a family yet, so I don't just come to live alone."
"Don't you have a partner? Now as long as you are in a serious relationship, who cares if you live together? Besides, isn't the current social atmosphere like this? Secretary Long said with a smile.
"Secretary Long, it's okay for us to move over, but we can't cook, and we can't hold on to meals like this in the county party committee compound. You can't let us bring the chef over, can you? ”
"This is indeed a problem, don't move if it's inconvenient to move here, and no one will gossip, haven't I been living in the city all the time? I asked you to move here, mainly because young people sleep a lot, and it is impossible to waste a few hours on the road every day. ”
Wuyang smiled: "Then I will thank Secretary Xie Long for his concern." ”
When I returned to the office, I suddenly received a call from Yu Xiaoxiao. It has been nearly 1 month since I left the management committee, and the two have not spoken on the phone, and when they returned to the management committee that day to say goodbye, Wuyang did not go to greet Yu Xiaoxiao. Working hours are like this, and Wuyang has not been to the tea culture street during work hours, and their love nest has been alone for a long time. "Wuyang, are you convenient now?"
"Convenient, you can tell me something."
"Something big has happened to our management committee." Yu Xiaoxiao said.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"Director Su quarreled with the villagers when he led people to requisition the land, and Director Guo led people to mediate, but not only did the mediation not work well, but the villager set himself on fire. This was yesterday. After the hospital rescue villagers still died, today his wife learned the Tao, drank pesticides, and is now in the hospital rescue. Yu Xiaoxiao said.
"How could such a big deal happen? What contradiction can't be solved? One guy is two lives. ”
"Please, can you accumulate some virtue in your mouth? Now those who drink pesticides are not dead. However, after the doctor's diagnosis, the patient was already cerebral necrosis, and he was also in a vegetative state after being rescued. In fact, there is no major event at all, that is, this villager is usually more arrogant, and for the sake of a few square meters of house area, they quarreled, and both sides were not calm. After Director Guo came, he added fuel to the fire. The two sides moved. At that time, the villagers demanded justice from the Public Security Bureau. The people of the Public Security Bureau naturally helped with the demolition and relocation, but the villagers said that this was forcing people to die, and everyone did not pay attention to it, and after a while, the fire burned and could not be extinguished. ”
Wuyang said: "Now that the matter has come out, we can only find a way to solve it properly." ”
Yu Xiaoxiao said: "It's good to solve it properly, but someone stabbed the matter on the Internet, and the city government quickly deleted it." But it still hung for two hours, and it is estimated that there are already a lot of people who know the road, which is very unfavorable to the industrial park's application for the establishment of a new administrative division, and there is also the possibility that investors may have to withdraw their capital. ”
"Alas, it's really a good thing not to go out, but a bad thing to spread thousands of miles."
Yu Xiaoxiao said: "Wuyang, we have rumors here that the municipal government may transfer you back to preside over the work of the management committee, for such a mess, you must not come back." ”
"Xiaoxiao. I know that you are for my good, but you are a party cadre. I have no choice but to follow the arrangement. ”
"The dust will settle in a few months, and when you come back, the work will be easier. I think that if the leaders of the municipal party committee and the municipal government come to you, you will say that you must persist in the county for a period of time and put the county's economic construction on a development track before you can leave, otherwise you will be sorry for the hundreds of thousands of people in the county. The leaders will think about the county, and you will have a buffer time, right? ”
Wuyang smiled: "Are these words told to you by my father-in-law?" Otherwise, you are a girl, how can you know so much. ”
"You know what? Your father-in-law has been in officialdom for decades, and of course he is more experienced than us. Wuyang, your father-in-law wants to meet you, when will he have time? Don't forget to bring two bottles of good wine when the time comes, and you son-in-law will have a few drinks. ”
"Xiaoxiao, does my father-in-law know the real situation? We must not lie to him. Wuyang said.
"I know that I can't lie to him, you can rest assured."
"Xiaoxiao, can you spare time in the afternoon, I miss you."
"We're in a mess here right now, and there's no one to take care of anything. I miss you too, it's inconvenient in the teahouse, let's go to the hotel to open a room. ”
Wuyang went to Secretary Long's office and told the management committee about the accident. Secretary Long said: "If you have time now, hurry over, don't let your hard-earned achievements be ruined." ”
drove out, so I called Yu Xiaoxiao, and Xiaoxiao said, "Okay, I'll go and open the room now." Is it okay to have the waiter deliver the meals to the room? ”
"Okay, call me when you're ready."
After lunch, Xiaoxiao didn't want to rest, so she lingered together.
Wuyang said: "Xiaoxiao, looking at you like this, I really can't bear to let you live alone." ”
"Wuyang, it's okay, wait until the county people's congress election in March next year, let's think about other issues." Yu Xiaoxiao said.
"Alright then, I'll call you when I have time." After Wuyang finished speaking, he said goodbye and went home.
When I entered the house and saw a person I was most afraid of seeing, Xiao Qimei walked over with a smile and grabbed his arm. "Wuyang, I miss you so much."
Wuyang didn't know what to say, and his mother, Mengyu, and Mingfang, who were sitting in the living room, all looked at him and smiled. Wuyang estimated that Xiao Qimei had been here for a long time, and she had negotiated with them. "Seventh sister, sit down, when did you come? Don't make a phone call before you come? ”
Xiao Qimei said with a smile: "I came by car carrying gold yesterday afternoon, because I was afraid that I would suddenly come to the house and cause unpleasantness, so I stayed in the hotel for one night. I once said that I would definitely convince my mother to agree to our thing, how about it? Now that mom and sisters have agreed, you can't refuse me anymore, can you? ”
"Seventh sister, what do I have to do to deserve you like this? My wife, you only know a few people who went to the ancient city last time, and there are several people you don't know and don't know, they are all in the United States now, and even my son was born to me. ”
"Xiaoya and the others told me today, so I am even happier, which shows that our Li family is prosperous. Wuyang, before I came, I told my parents, brother and sister-in-law at home, and they had no opinion, so this time, I won't be the daughter-in-law of the Li family, and I won't go back. ”
"Seventh sister, you really don't deserve this."
"Wuyang, don't you like me?" Xiao Qimei let go of Wuyang's arm as she spoke, walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down.
The seventh sister's words reminded Wuyang, when the seventh sister called, Wuyang decisively said "I don't like you". Maybe there won't be anything in the future. I didn't say anything at the time? It is impossible to say such a thing now. After saying that, the seventh sister was injured and brought home. But it can't be said that if you see a beautiful woman and like one, you have to take it home to be your wife, so you can't build a palace for your wife to live in.
"Seventh sister, you are such a beautiful girl, it is false to say that you don't like it, but do you want me to be a person who can't walk when you see a beautiful girl?"
Gao Xiaoya said with a smile: "Wuyang, since the seventh sister is here, my mother has agreed." I don't think you should push back, so as not to hurt the heart of the seventh sister. ”
Mother Luo Hongying also said: "Wuyang, Xiao Xiao's parents, brother and sister-in-law have agreed, and I have agreed, you are also considered to be the order of your parents, you can admit it." Xiao Xiao, as I said just now, you will be your mother's daughter in the future, and your mother will not let you be wronged, but you have many sisters. Sometimes it is inevitable that the afternoon sun can be taken care of, so you must be magnanimous. Don't worry about everything. ”
Xiao Qimei smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will learn from my sisters, and I will only support and help Wuyang, and I won't trouble him." ”
Luo Hongying smiled: "What a reasonable and good girl." Mom is in charge of this. There are only 10 days left before New Year's Day, you will go back tomorrow to prepare, and on New Year's Day, let Wuyang bring a bride price, and marry you back in a lively and lively manner. Of course, this is to give your family enough face, and when we get here, we can't make a big deal. ”
Xiao Qimei said: "Mom, don't be so troublesome, everyone in our village knows that I have found a good boy, who is handsome and has money, and my family's face is enough, so don't engage in those false things, so as not to cause a bad impact on Wuyang." ”
Luo Hongying said: "You kid, it's true, my mother depends on you." But let's let Wuyang send some dowry to your family. ”
"Mom, the last time Wuyang invested in a silverware processing factory, he gave me shares in my family, which are millions. Coupled with the production and sales of silverware in the past few months, the money we pay dividends according to shares is millions, and thousands of dollars are not bad, not to mention that it is still a golden rooster that can lay eggs. ”
"Seventh sister, how is the situation in the silversmithing factory now?" Wuyang asked.
Xiao Qimei said: "The processing plant has been basically built. It could have been faster, but it took some more time for our Miao family to build a house and pay attention to carving beams and paintings, and later two warehouses were added, and the time was even longer. One warehouse is loaded with silver, the other is loaded with finished products, I didn't expect the mine to produce so much silver, now the two warehouses are full, fortunately, as long as the finished products are produced, they will be transported away, and there is no need to keep them in the warehouse for a long time. However, the warehouse began to be built again, otherwise there would soon be no place to install it. Wuyang, how do we settle accounts this year? Is it to set the price of silver, and then use the sales proceeds to subtract processing fees, freight, and silver, and then dividends the rest? ”
Wuyang said: "That's basically it. If this is calculated, how much profit will your processing plant have? ”
Xiao Qimei said: "This can't be counted at all." We have never received a penny for the sale of the silverware we have shipped to the gold and jewelry stores, and we do not know how much they have sold. ”
"If you can't figure it out, let them hurry up and calculate, each store usually has an account, as long as it is total."
"Wuyang, are you still paying for the cost of expanding the warehouse this time?"
"Of course, otherwise you wouldn't have lost a lot. After the account is calculated, only the part of your family's dividends due will be transferred to the account of the processing plant, and the rest of the money will not be transferred, and the original part of your account will be left for working capital. By the way, how much storage capacity do you build warehouses? ”
"Each warehouse is 10,000 tons, and we now process less than 20 tons per day, and the inventory is enough for us to process for 3 years. Sales are even smaller, and now every store has a lot of stock, and the mines are still producing silver in large quantities, which is really worrying. ”
Wuyang smiled: "What are you worried about? If you can't sell it, keep it. Otherwise, if you ask your family to open some stores in counties with a large number of ethnic minority people, the sales volume may be larger. Besides, the production of the mine will definitely not take two years, there will be no veins to mine, and the total output will not exceed 80,000 tons. ”
Xiao Qimei smiled: "Oh my God, 80,000 tons, enough for my brother to run for a lifetime." Wuyang, when I saw you saying this, you looked plain, how much money do you have? ”
"How much? I don't know what to do. However, since you are my wife, I still want you to become a rich woman like other wives. Xiaoya, how much money do you have now? Wuyang asked.
Xiaoya said: "If you just count the money on the account, if you don't want the sales dividends of those stores in the capital, it will be about 8 billion US dollars." ”
Wuyang said: "Seventh sister, tomorrow or any day when I have time, I will transfer money to you and Mingfang." Mingfang I have already given a part, but you should all have the same amount, whether you participate in futures speculation in the future, you can see for yourself. You can use the money freely, and I don't care if you give it to your family or leave it to your children. In addition, I want to prepare a card for each of you, and the card will deposit 500 million yuan, which will not be used to speculate in stocks and futures, but can only be used as pocket money, and I don't care about buying a house or land. Also, Seventh Sister, you will not be less than the jade objects that other sisters have. ”
Xiao Qimei said: "I don't want jadeite, we Miao family girls only need silverware." ”
Mengyu smiled: "Silly sister, do you know how much silverware a jade object can be worth?" ”
Wuyang said: "Seventh sister, we have a lot of silver in our family, you can take it if you want." Come politely, and send a hundred kilograms of silver to your relatives at home, and one or two kilograms to all the women in your village, and let them make their own silverware. ”
The seventh sister smiled and said, "You are really generous, this is good, it is much better than blowing and blowing to welcome relatives." ”
After dinner, Wuyang took a few people to find Xiaobao together. Chen Xiaobao and Mo Chuntao have now also moved to Stone Villa, living in a dormitory at a processing plant. Xiaobao is not eating at Wuyang's house now, Chun Tao has reached the time of labor, and Xiaobao's mother, that is, Wuyang's aunt, comes to take care of her.
There were bursts of baby cries from the dormitory building, Xiao Xu, Xiao Cao, and Xiao Zhu had already given birth, Xiao Mu had been running outside, and Zhang Yibo was too busy to win, but fortunately, several families had invited confinement sisters.
Mengyu said: "Wuyang, let's not be in a hurry at this time, people have already gotten off work, forget it today." ”
Xiao Qimei also echoed: "I think so too, tomorrow you go to work, let the sisters bring me over." ”
Wuyang thought about it too, and turned back. On the way back, Xiao Qimei smiled and said, "Sisters, can you lend me Wuyang tonight?" ”
Xiaoya smiled: "My own man, you can use it if you want to, what can you borrow?" (To be continued......)
