"Because the fertilizer is irrigated with water, usually two people are enough, but when it comes to the harvest season, two more people have to be added. Of course, there are also some auxiliary workers, such as loading, unloading, etc. The total number of workers cannot be less than 15,000 people, and the average salary paid by the boss is 120 yuan per day. ”

Ding Xigang asked, "Professor Shu, how do these vegetables taste?" ”

Professor Shu said: "Because all the fertilizers are applied, there are absolutely no hormones, no pesticides, the taste is no worse than that produced in the field, and you can eat with confidence." ”

Wuyang said: "Comrade Yinghui, look at it, there are so many labor jobs for you here, and you don't need male laborers, what a good thing." ”

Feng Yinghui said: "Yes, the 200,000 acres of land to build greenhouses, we are 30,000 per mu, and the county government has recovered 3 percent of the land transfer money, which is 1.8 billion, and the villagers have also earned 3 percent, so many people have the funds to build their own greenhouses." The villagers earn 650 million yuan from working here, and their income from more than 30,000 acres of greenhouses will not be less than 200 million. Secretary, this is all a good leader of the municipal party committee and municipal government. ”

Wuyang said: "I haven't seen real money yet, it's too early to say this, perform your duties well, and serve the production well is authentic." ”

He spoke in a soft tone, and it was evident that there was no reproach. Feng Yinghui is a cadre, and if he says a few flattering words, not to mention that he is talking about the municipal party committee and municipal government, he should not be blamed. Feng Yinghui is Chen Shaonan's person, that is, his cronies, and when he said this, he also expressed that he didn't like to listen to flattery, and what he valued was to do his work in a down-to-earth manner.

Professor Shu said, "Secretary Li, do you still have a look at other greenhouses?" ”

"I don't look at it. We have delayed you for a long time. Thank you. Professor Shu. The villagers have also built so many greenhouses here, and I hope that you can teach them how to make a good harvest. ”

Professor Shu said: "Secretary Li, I can understand the painstaking efforts of your leaders, and I will spare no effort to help them, don't worry." ”

Back to where Feng Yinghui parked, Wuyang said, "Old Feng, you go back to your car." Show us the way and see your new county seat. ”

"Secretary, 3 kilometers in front of here is the ferry, and then turn back after seeing it, I ask the leaders of the municipal party committee and municipal government to guide the work in our county."

"Okay, you let the other members of the county team gather in the county party committee office, let's hurry up."

As the vehicle moved forward, the terrain on both sides of the road gradually flattened, and the hills became cultivated land and rice paddies. Harvested late rice in the field. Some were planted with rape, and some were planted with turnips. There is also a kind of milk vetch. Some paddy fields are not planted with late rice, but water chestnuts are planted, and some villagers are digging water chestnuts. Wuyang liked to eat this kind of thing when he was a child, and now he sees water chestnuts in the kitchen, and he wants to cut them and eat them, but he is embarrassed to do it.

"Minister Ding, the villagers' sense of commodities here is still quite strong."

Ding Xigang said: "This place is not far from the city, and if there are things to sell, the awareness of natural commodities is stronger." However, you see, the people who work in the fields are all old men and women, and there is no strong labor. ”

"It's no wonder that all you earn from part-time jobs is cash. Look, isn't this the coming of strong labor? Let's stop and see. ”

It turned out that a truck was parked on the side of the road here, and several people were picking lotus roots from the low-lying fields, and the truck was already half loaded. In the lotus root field in the distance, the lotus root digger is working.

"Master, you're buying lotus roots, right? What price? ”

"I'm sorry, I'm a truck driver, I just take care of the transportation, I don't know the price."

Ding Xigang said: "The supermarket sells for 3 yuan and 1 catty, and the purchase price is 2 yuan." At this time, the person who picked the lotus root approached, and he asked, "Brother, what is the wholesale price of this lotus root?" ”

The person who walked in front said: "Big brother, check out the bill here, 1 yuan per catty, 5 yuan." The price is lower, but it saves trouble. ”

"How many acres of land have you planted at home?"

"Planted 6 acres. The two of us worked outside, and the elderly and children couldn't grow rice, so we all planted lotus roots. ”

Wuyang asked: "How many lotus roots can be produced in 6 acres of land?" ”

"More than 3,000 catties per mu, 20,000 catties per 6 acres of land, 30,000 yuan smaller."

"How many days does this lotus root digging machine take?"

"You can dig it in a day, so it's a hassle-free. In the afternoon, I invited a few friends to pick up, which is enough for 3 jobs. In addition, the cost of the lotus root digging machine is 360 yuan, and the cost is only 7 or 800 yuan. In the past, I was annoyed with the fact that my father and wife were dispatched, and I couldn't finish digging it in 20 days, I was tired to death, I was freezing to death, and it was difficult to sell it when I dug it out. ”

Wuyang said: "Your fields here are low-lying, and the yield of rice planting is probably not high, so will you grow more lotus roots next year?" ”

"There are only 6 acres of land at home, and it is easy to dig lotus roots, and others will definitely have to plant them themselves, and they will not give us the fields. Boss, we're also worried that if we plant too much, we won't be able to sell it. ”

"I know Boss Xu who bought the lotus root, and I asked him to sign a contract with you, so that you can have peace of mind."

"That's great, as long as I can sell it, I can rent the land and plant." Planting another 6 acres is about the same as getting up early and working at night. ”

"Okay, you're busy, let's go."

Back in the car, Ding Xigang asked, "Secretary, which Boss Xu do you know?" ”

"It's my driver, Xu Zhengliang's brother, and the vegetable and fruit wholesale market that is now being built is what their brother invested in."

"Secretary, I heard that Xiao Xu's brothers are very rich, right?"

"It's not very clear, but investing in such a large wholesale market is definitely not ordinary money."

Ding Xigang said: "Didn't Feng Yinghui say that he wanted to build a new county here? Do you also encourage them to grow a variety of lotus roots? ”

Wuyang said: "Look at it, such a large area, the terrain is so low-lying, it is definitely not suitable to build a house, when planning the county, it is better to build a park here, and the residents of the county also have a place for leisure and entertainment." If this is a park, it will definitely be turned into a water surface and a small lake will be built around the farmland. Flooding when the water level is high. It is exposed when the water level is low. Isn't it possible to dig lotus roots? ”

"It's a good way to save money on land acquisition, beautify the environment, and increase the income of residents." If the place connected with the old river is renovated, it is this lake, and fish can also be raised, and the area is not small, and the lake will be boated at that time. The lotus pond is also a good place to rest. ”

Wuyang smiled: "The Secretary-General's speech is quite poetic." When we look into it, we'll bring it up and let them do what you want. Lao Ding, which prestigious school did you graduate from? ”

Ding Xigang said with a smile: "I graduated from this university in the army, worked in the army for 3 years, and returned to the local area for 25 years, that is, I got a diploma from a party school. ”

Wuyang thought that from a veteran to a deputy department-level propaganda minister, it is not something that ordinary people can do. This man must be exceptional. "Lao Ding, after returning to the place. Where did it start? ”

"I started to be the secretary of the Youth League branch in the village, wrote a few articles and published them in the city newspaper, and was later hired as a correspondent, and then was recruited into the civil service, and after a few years of shaking the pen, I went to the township government as the deputy head of the township, all the way to the secretary of the county party committee, and then to the propaganda department of the municipal party committee."

"It turns out that our Lao Ding is still a big literati."

"What the hell literati, that is, at that time, there were not many talents from professional classes, and most of them were arrogant and unsociable, unlike us who have been trained by the army and are used to obeying orders and listening to commands, and the leaders are easy to use."

Wuyang said, "Yes." But it's not very common. ”

"That's it. If Chairman Wang hadn't taken a fancy to me, I'm afraid I would be a migrant worker now. ”

"Chairman Wang, is it Chairman Wang of the Provincial Political Consultative Conference?"

"Yes. His years in Yihe are the fastest developing years in Yihe, he went to serve as the vice chairman of the CPPCC for more than 5 years, Yihe's economy, and the distance between the surrounding cities is getting bigger and bigger, that is, you came, so we can see hope. ”

Wuyang said: "Lao Ding, it's just hope, to catch up with Tanzhou and Lujiang, I'm afraid it will take 20 years." ”

"Yes, although we have taken a big step, our industrial and agricultural foundation is much stronger than ours, and they are better than us in all aspects."

"Lao Ding, what do you think we should learn from Tanzhou and Lujiang when we run the city?"

Ding Xigang said: "Needless to say, the development of the urban and rural economy is not to mention, I think we should learn from the orderly management of the Lujiang River. The economic strength of Lujiang is not as good as that of Tanzhou, but if you compare the two cities, will you think that Tanzhou is a bit messy, while Lujiang is more orderly? Not to mention anything else, any time we go to Tanzhou, we may encounter traffic jams, but to Lujiang, I have been to no less than 10 times in the past 3 years, and I have never encountered traffic jams. The roads are wide and flat, and even if there is a traffic accident, it will not be blocked for long. I know that you are from Lujiang, you have also brought their business philosophy, Yihe will only be better than Lujiang after the construction of this key project. ”

"The construction is only hardware, and there is still a lot of work to be done to operate well, and all citizens need to work together. Lao Ding, the rural construction of our city is also far behind them, do you have any consideration in this regard? ”

Ding Xigang said: "Secretary, I have given more thought to this aspect, because this work is a requirement of the central authorities, and we must grasp the general direction of our propaganda work, so we cannot but consider this issue. I think that when we speed up rural construction, we should also learn from the Lujiang River, and of course, the Lanjiang model may be more suitable for our Yihe. Our Yihe economy is relatively backward, the people have no money in their hands, if like the economically developed areas, the government eyes on the land transfer money, just want to collect as much as possible, and all functional departments treat it as Tang monk meat, all have to eat a bite, then the housing prices will be higher and higher, the people want to buy can't afford it, and building a house in the countryside is an empty word. ”

Wuyang said: "It is true. In our city, I learned that in addition to the land price and various expenses, the cost of building a frame structure is about 1,000 yuan per square meter, and if the house price can be controlled at 2,800 yuan per square meter, it is the price of resettlement housing, is it possible for the people to afford it? ”

Ding Xigang said: "Secretary, what you are talking about is that in urban areas, in counties and towns, if the newly built houses can be controlled below 2,000 yuan per square meter, and the quality can be guaranteed, the enthusiasm of the people to buy houses will be much higher." ”

"I'm afraid there's no profit at this price, right?"

"Secretary, look out the window, such land is barren mountains and bald mountains, if the county government and the village level don't collect money, 10,000 yuan per mu for the villagers is enough, right? The government cuts all expenses. The construction cost is 1,000 yuan per square meter. 10,000 pieces of land per mu. One-third can be used to build a house, the total of 222 square meters, only 45 yuan per square meter, plus the repair of water, electricity, roads and greening, the average 455 yuan per square meter is enough, then there is still 500 yuan per square meter of profit, and there is room for compression. The key is to see if the government is determined. ”

Wuyang said: "Lao Ding, I want the government to make up its mind. First of all, the city party committee must make up its mind. To make up this determination, we must first broaden our field of vision, not always focus on immediate interests, but take a long-term view and seek benefits from economic development. ”

Ding Xigang smiled: "It's up to you, the secretary." You are the head of the class, and if you do the persuasion work, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. ”

"Persuasion needs to be done, but it doesn't have to be one-size-fits-all. Like the town of Nanzhu that we just passed, the land close to the road was directly allocated to each household. Let the villagers raise their own money to build houses. If it is not from the village or the group, it is necessary to pay for the land. It may be easier for the villagers to accept a little. ”

"Secretary, this is a good idea. As long as the township and town cadres show public intentions, there will be no contradictions, and the pace of construction can certainly be accelerated. ”

Wuyang said: "The purpose of our construction is to develop the economy, build a moderately prosperous society, and increase the income of urban and rural residents. However, the formation of a city and a bazaar should only exist according to needs and be built on a certain material foundation. As Feng Yinghui said, building a distribution center for vegetables and fruits is what is needed, and it can be done. However, as far as our entire rural areas are concerned, the productive forces are still very backward, the township governments have no money, the villagers have no money, and the developers have borrowed money from the bank to build houses, but no one has bought them, but the villagers' land has been occupied. Land is the basis for the survival of peasants, and without land, they drink the northwest wind? Lao Ding, do you think we should think about this issue? ”

"Secretary, I have thought a little about the construction of this new countryside, thinking that it is not necessary to build houses together to be a new countryside, some villages, the villagers have built buildings, and demolished and built new ones, isn't this a toss? I have visited the United Kingdom, France and other European countries, and the urbanization process of the people is already very high, there are estates, and there are scattered farmers, as long as the people themselves feel comfortable and comfortable. Secretary, after we have pondered this issue, and after this period of time, we have worked together to write an article and report it to the central authorities to give a wake-up call to the decision-making level. Lao Tzu once said that heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs, and saints are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs. If you don't believe it, let's try it, because in less than three or five years, a large number of problems will come to the fore, the contradictions between the government and the masses will become acute, and such phenomena as forced demolitions, beatings, and self-immolations will continue to appear. ”

Wuyang said with a smile: "Lao Ding, your understanding is correct, whatever we do, we have to analyze the specific problems in detail." Therefore, this time, we should publicize the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee, stress speeding up the construction of new rural areas, and focus on developing the economy and increasing the income of urban and rural residents. Of course, it is still necessary to grasp the implementation of the renovation of dilapidated houses that have been allocated by the central government. ”

Ding Xigang said: "Secretary, the villagers are also tired of the dilapidated house renovation project. For the renovation of a dilapidated house, the financial allocation is 40,000 yuan, and the real amount that goes to the peasant households is generally 20,000 yuan, and half of it is squeezed out by the township and village levels. ”

"Then you'll have to check it out."

"It's hard to look up this estimate. When the villagers get the money, they all think that it is a favor from the township cadres, how dare they tell the truth? ”

Wuyang said: "Then the authority will be received to the county finance bureau, and the secretary of the county party committee will be the person responsible, and whoever dares to squeeze and embezzle it, I will hold the secretary of the county party committee accountable." By the way, there is also the issue of education funds, and only in this way can it be possible to strengthen management. ”

Ding Xigang said with a smile: "Secretary, the education fund is a problem that has plagued the county party committee for a long time, the management authority is in the education system, and the use authority is in the township, but it has become a food and drink fund for township cadres. ”

Wuyang said: "I also thought about investigating this matter in the county, but after finding out the truth, I gave up." If we continue to investigate, I am afraid that as long as they have worked in the township and township, they have all participated in eating and drinking, and they will have to punish people, which involves too wide a range, so they have to be stopped. ”

"Secretary, the education fund is used to eat and drink, and it is also a reason for the high cost of education, if the management authority of the fund is transferred to the government finance, whether the person responsible is the county magistrate or the secretary, it will definitely be able to fundamentally change."

"Yes, let's transfer the management to the county government. However, as long as the county government's finances are not sufficient, the phenomenon of education funds being squeezed out cannot be fundamentally resolved, and we still have to vigorously develop the economy of the counties and municipalities, so that we can only find the only way. Lao Ding, I didn't have time to find someone to understand the situation in the work I arranged for the resettlement house last month, do you know something? ”

"Yes. Of the several housing projects that have been cleared up, only about one-third of the resettlement houses and low-rent houses have been given to the relocated households and those with housing difficulties. ”

"To whom?"

"Layer upon layer, to yourself or relatives and friends, or simply to a dozen or dozens of sets to the intermediary, to collect a benefit fee. The Commission for Discipline Inspection has already set out more than a dozen people in shuanggui, and with the deepening of the investigation and punishment, it is estimated that more people will be involved. Secretary, this is a matter that makes the people applaud, and it is no less than a popular project. ”

Wuyang said: "The reason why the masses of the people applauded and praised was that they had punished corrupt officials, and more importantly, they saw hope and began to have confidence in the municipal party committee and government. Lao Ding, our follow-up work must be done well, and do not cause new disharmony. ”

"How?"

"Those corrupt officials themselves or their relatives and friends occupy more than the second house, resolutely to take back and distribute to the people who have no house, those who buy houses from intermediaries, are houseless households, only collect the money earned by intermediaries, the house does not need to be recovered, if it is bought and hoarded, it must also be collected, and the money handed over to the intermediaries, after the government takes it back from the intermediaries, it will still have to be returned to them. If the house has been renovated, it is also necessary to estimate the decoration price reasonably and return the decoration fee to them, after all, it is not easy for ordinary people to earn a few dollars. ”

Ding Xigang said: "Secretary, I have written it down, sort it out in the evening, please report it to Secretary Zhong Zicai after you look at it." ”

"Okay, this is just my personal opinion, let Secretary Zhong refer to them."

The vehicle got off the embankment and waited for the ferry, and the people in the car got down, and saw that there were many cows basking in the sun on the beach by the river, and Wuyang asked: "Secretary Feng, there are still people in your county who have raised so many cattle?" ”

Feng Yinghui said: "Yes. There is a village in our county that has been raising beef cattle for more than ten years, and there are more than 120 professional households raising more than 500 heads, and more than 300 individual households raising dozens or two or three hundred heads. ”

"Now that the price of beef is so high, the profit is considerable."

"Secretary, the price of beef is high, but we have encountered a bottleneck now, and we are about to go downhill."

"Oh, let's hear it." (To be continued......)
