Chapter 643: A Courageous Old Village Chief

Speaking of a township, the Wenjia Town that Liu Yi saw did not look as lively as their current mountain village, and this so-called town was actually two cross-shaped highways, and on both sides of the highway were tall and low erected scattered houses.

When the car reached the most central intersection of the street, Liu Yi rolled the window and looked out left and right, probably because of noon, there was basically no figure in the entire town, which looked particularly desolate.

However, not long after the car went further, it finally stopped, Liu Yi thought about looking ahead, there was finally someone now, and the leading comrades in the town were enthusiastically welcoming the arrival of the superior leaders.

Deputy County Magistrate Zhao, who came with the car, was the highest-ranking leader in the group, so he became the main target of the town leaders' greeting, but after Deputy County Magistrate Zhao explained Liu Yi and Mr. Jia to the township leaders, Liu Yi and they were immediately surrounded by the town leaders.

County Magistrate Zhao didn't mind, and saw that the time was more than two o'clock in the afternoon before he said loudly: "Entertain our distinguished guests like this, we are all hungry all the way!" ”

A middle-aged man at the head of the greeting team patted his head and said with a smile: "Haha, blame me, blame me ......, we are so excited, County Magistrate Zhao, Mr. Liu, Mr. Jia, please!" ”

But County Magistrate Zhao walked to Liu Yi and Mr. Jia and introduced the leaders of the town to them, and Liu Yi learned that Zhou Dacheng, the secretary of the town party committee of Wenjia Town, Huang Wenshan, the mayor of Wenjia Town, and other deputy mayors and office personnel.

The banquet was actually prepared when the county magistrate Zhao and Liu Yi came out, but Liu Yi and they came to serve a few plates of hot dishes, and as soon as they were dry, they began to eat and drink. In order to squeeze out more time for inspection, the leaders in the town did not persuade alcohol at noon, and there was no prohibition on alcohol, but everyone only tasted it.

A lunch is like a march to war, because there is no alcohol, the food is fast, and it takes half an hour from the time it is served to the end.

Zhou Dacheng politely ordered everyone to go to the hotel to rest after the meal, but was rejected by Mr. Jia and Liu Yi.

"Lao Zhou, I think we will take Mr. Jia and Mr. Liu directly to the field to have a look, they are all doers, this morning before dawn Mr. Liu went to the seafood trading market in the city to inspect it. Immediately went back and made some good recommendations. I think that if Mr. Liu takes a fancy to you here, the day when you get rid of poverty and become rich will not be far away. "County Magistrate Zhao made a joke to Secretary Zhou today, it seems that their relationship is extraordinary.

Zhou Dacheng, the town secretary, immediately echoed and said: "That is, it is not the leadership to take care of it, and bring Mr. Liu and Mr. Jia to inspect us." Rest assured. This part of our town is guaranteed to be a good farm. Investing here ensures that you will pay for yourself in the shortest possible time. ”

Secretary Zhou doesn't know where the confidence comes from, he has already guaranteed it in this way, just like Liu Yi They will definitely invest here. Could it be that the sea area here is really better than other places, but look at the surroundings, if it is as good as Secretary Zhou said, this township will not be as depressed as it is now!

Secretary Zhao observed the expressions of Liu Yi and Mr. Jia, and saw Liu Yi's expression and looked at the surroundings, so he didn't know what Liu Yi was thinking, so he hurriedly explained: "Their sea area is indeed very good, but subject to traffic factors, you also know that this is the biggest drawback of our here, to do seafood farming and coastline development, first of all, infrastructure will definitely invest a lot of money, which is why many people are restricted from investing in this area." ”

Liu Yi nodded: "Then let's go to the field first, now I still don't know the situation here!" ”

Just listening to their introductions is good, but hearing is false, seeing is believing, and only after you go to investigate it yourself can you have a specific impression in your heart.

"Well, okay, let's go!" Secretary Zhou replied.

Wenjia Village is the shortest distance from Wenjia Town, which is the administrative center of Wenjia Town, this village is located in a bay, the whole village is gathered together, with the mountains one after another, but at least half of the houses are still thatched roofs, some look like they have experienced many years of wind and rain and look extremely old, just like the next wind will blow down.

The area under the jurisdiction of Wenjia Village was originally the property of a landlord surnamed Wen, but now only the name of Wenjia Village has been continued, and the villagers who live in it have surnames and everything, but there are few families with the surname Wen.

The village chief is an old man who has passed the age of the sixtieth year, but he looks full of red light, and his spirit is not bad at all, I heard that the county leader led the investors to inspect here, and the whole person was not much surprised, and led everyone directly to the nearby sea area that was about to be investigated.

"This village chief is not simple, looking at the leaders above, not only is he not stammering, but he looks very stable!" Liu Yi walked into Mr. Jia and said to him gently.

Mr. Jia smiled, crying and laughing at Liu Yi's gossip.

However, Secretary Zhou next to him paid attention to Liu Yi and Mr. Jia's every move, and he happened to hear Liu Yi's question just now and approached and said: "Don't underestimate the village secretary, he is a well-known celebrity here in our country, who came back from the war in Vietnam, and all the positions given to him from above were rejected by him, and now what he says in the village is much more effective than ours!" ”

"Really, what about the temper of this village chief?" Liu Yi asked tentatively, but as soon as he asked, he immediately felt funny, there is such a gossip with the town secretary about a village chief under his jurisdiction, which is rare in other places.

However, Secretary Zhou really replied seriously: "The old secretary is very upright and doesn't like to deal with people with empty heads, which is why the conditions in this sea area are so good, and no one has contracted it until now." ”

Seeing that Mr. Jia and Liu Yi were a little confused, yes, how could being honest have anything to do with the contracting of this sea area, so he continued: "In his opinion, this sea area is the wealth of the people of the whole village, if anyone comes to contract this sea area, then it will solve the source of livelihood of the people of the whole village, that is, I don't know how many people are scared off by this condition, and some of them don't believe that the contract is not fulfilled by his promise, and it is not for nothing that they are driven away!" ”

From a personal point of view, Liu Yi began to admire the old village chief, but many issues were not very well understood, and Liu Yi did not know the specific situation in the village, so he did not speak.

Mr. Jia pointed to the surrounding villages and asked, "How many people are there in this Wenjia Village now, and do investors who come here to contract sea areas have to bear everyone's work, regardless of age?" ”

"That's not it, the old village chief is not this kind of unreasonable person, otherwise we can't pass this pass in the town, and it won't be my turn to say good things to him here, you must know that there are investors who come to give him gifts and are driven out by him, do you know how much money is sent, a full 500,000 ah, he is not moved, you say that we will doubt his character if you say such a person!" Secretary Zhou said with a sigh.

Slowly, a very tall image with a very strong skeleton formed in Liu Yi's mind, looking at the person in front of him who was in good spirits but a little rickety, Liu Yi still felt the great power in his body.

"What do you say, when you get to the ground, come and see, this sea is the best water area in Wenjia Village!" While Liu Yi and Secretary Zhou were talking, Deputy County Magistrate Zhao spoke in front.

Soon all the people stood behind the old village chief, and Deputy County Magistrate Zhao was no exception, and the old village chief said unyieldingly: "You see that the sea in front of you is the sea surface that belongs to our village, and most of the villagers in our entire village rely on this sea surface to live. ”

Sure enough, this is a very principled village head, not afraid of power, and he can still speak bluntly in front of the county magistrate.

Liu Yi looked at Secretary Zhou's sleeve and asked, "Just now you haven't answered how many villagers there are in our village, and how many people need to solve the work?" ”

"This ......, I know that the total population of their village is about 3,000 people, and I still have to count the number of people who need to be arranged!" Secretary Zhou replied with some embarrassment.

Suddenly, a voice spoke: "There are a total of 3,253 people in this village, 1,286 are 60 years old, 986 are under 18 years old, and some of the rest are working outside and going to school, and the population in the village that depends on this sea area is less than 1,500 people, and now our village has tens of thousands of acres of sea area according to the early aerial survey, if all these sea areas are developed, there is no problem at all to arrange these 1,500 people, they are all familiar with all kinds of local fish, If you switch to marine farming, you basically don't need training, and you are all familiar with it, where can you find such a good thing? ”

Liu Yi and Secretary Zhou's speeches just now were heard by the old village chief, and it was really rare that he could still say this long list of numbers in detail, which shows that this is how much care about the affairs of the village can be practiced, and Liu Yi is ashamed of his ability to control.

Not only Liu Yi was frightened, but also the county magistrate Zhao, the town leaders and other entourages who came with him were shocked by the old village chief.

Looking at Liu Yi's stunned appearance, the old village chief asked with a smile: "Young man, I see that you are quite honest and honest, how about it, are you interested in contracting this sea area, as long as you can meet my requirements above, I can let all the people in the village do their best to support you, if someone is mischievous and let you scold!" ”

Courage, this is the courage of the old village chief! (To be continued......)
