Chapter 36: A Thousand Miles of Bad Things

The water quality test report states that E. coli exceeds the standard. Ji Conan asked Shen Jing: "What should I do?" ”

Shen Jing said: "This time it is accurate. Report it to Miss Liu, the person in charge of the unit, and then talk about it. ”

This test is the second test, and the first time was done in the United States.

In fact, in order to let the villagers drink good water, they would rather spend more money, eat the water, know whether the water is clean, whether it can be drunk directly, or close to direct drinking, just do a little treatment, which is reassuring.

The rich people in the United States treat their inheritance very differently from the Chinese.

Chinese generally leave money to their children and grandchildren, but China has a saying that it is not rich for three generations, what is going on? The people of the United States donated their money to charity, and the donors lived safely without much problem. This may be a portrayal of good people with good rewards. Of course, some people don't believe in retribution. Think that retribution should come now, don't wait for later. The reality is that it's not right away, it may be halfway through, or it may be stuck in traffic.

In addition, the attitude of the people of the United States towards life is also simple, with food and clothing, and they are very content. Even so, there are a lot of fat people. This may have something to do with a sweet tooth.

Many wealthy people in the United States are philanthropists, and most of the things they do are more in line with people's needs, because they will think about their needs from the perspective of people, from the bottom, not from the top, not behind closed doors at home, relying on imagination.

In the end, although they did not leave much money to their descendants, their descendants were almost very good, of course, there were also homeless people, living on the streets, hungry, and some of them were a generation of rich people, living a life of abundant food and clothing, which shows that there is really a God who is blessing those who are willing to donate; And the Chinese, for the sake of the family, would rather work hard for themselves, dedicate their lives to the children of their families, earn money, give their children, in fact, the children get money, these money comes from their parents and ancestors, they do not work hard, do not know the hard work of making money, eat the old book, sit and eat the mountain and eat empty, and then, without it, there is no way to survive at all, let alone make money.

There are also those who compete for popularity, use the money of their ancestors, and then make money, and can sustain themselves for several generations. However, if it continues like this, no one can guarantee that scum will not appear, and the loser does not know in which generation it will appear, and the ancestors will not be able to control anything as soon as they close their eyes, so it is much better to let the descendants either fight for money or profit, and make the family have no peace, it is better to scatter the family wealth to the poor.

There is nothing wrong with foreign philanthropy going on forever. If you have money, you must have good projects, and this water project can meet the minimum needs of people. However, it is not yet known how long it will last. Maybe after the project is over, it can last for a year or two, and then it won't be there. They figure it out on their own. No one can say for sure, because no one has a back eye that doesn't see what will happen in the future. You can only take one step at a time. In other words, sustainable development is not only a matter for the unit, but also for the local villagers.

Some of the funds for this water conservancy project are supported by private charities in the United States, who want to help people in China's impoverished mountainous areas solve their drinking problems, not only by having water to eat, but also by providing villagers with clean water. Not only to eat clean water, but also to eat this water for a long time. Don't get bogged down by drought. The quality of life is not affected by the lack of water.

Before the start of the project, experts were sent to conduct a site visit. The inspection is responsible for the donors, you can't do the project behind closed doors at home, you have to go to the field to check, and when you look at the field, you will find that there are many differences, which are completely beyond people's imagination. Seeing is believing, and hearing is false.

Don't listen to rumors, don't believe the news that comes in, you need to go to the field, listen to what the people in the mountains say, and see what the mountains are like. Only in this way can we figure out their survival situation, come up with targeted plans, and reassure donors, which is what professional charities should do. Charities in both local and out-of-town areas should follow this principle. Otherwise, the purpose of the project would not have been achieved.

If you want to open up, you must establish a tourist area, develop and build a good tourism product, so that foreigners and domestic rich people can travel everywhere and drive the development of the local economy. The tourism industry can also bring a lot of employment opportunities, you don't have to go out to work, you can find a job at your doorstep, this is one of them, of course, there are many more, including taking care of the family, the elderly, the young, all need to pay, need to dedicate.

Because the accommodation, food, transportation, and sales of tourism products supporting the tourism industry are all related to the number of tourists, the earlier the development, the greater the reputation, the more tourists, and a virtuous circle.

In scenic spots, such as Shennong River rafting and supporting cultural activities, people there see foreigners, just like seeing neighbors, too accustomed to it, and even some villagers in the scenic area can speak a few foreign languages.

However, the villagers outside the scenic spot, including the respected people in the village, can see foreigners is quite rare, and for them, it is also rare. Of course, the person in charge of the county branch also attaches great importance to the visit of foreigners, and last time Mr. Doug came, Mr. Jia personally accompanied him to the countryside.

Of course, Mr. Jia had worked in Guandu Township before, and he was familiar with this place, and he had been to various places, and he was very familiar with the business, and he also liked to study, study, and read

This time the project was implemented in Guandu Township, and of course the local responsible person had the unshirkable duty to accompany him to the countryside, and he also needed water conservancy technicians to participate, plus the person in charge of their unit and the provincial head office, and their front-line staff.

A foreigner was accompanied by a large group of relevant people, and this team was not small, with seven or eight cars.

Walking up on the winding mountain road, the mighty and magnificent are magnificent. The county branch likes to engage in these bells and whistles, as if it is for their face and image problems, and it also shows that the local unit attaches great importance to this matter.

In fact, whether the villagers like them to come to the village or not is still unknown. Maybe it's for the project officer, after all, the director is a villager in the village, but he just feels obedient, so he is arranged to be the director, give the project officer some power, and let the villagers look at the project officer with admiration. The project officer can do something practical, which can be regarded as a veritable officer, and he is really an officer.

When I arrived in the village, it was even more lively, and the villagers welcomed him, and the scene made people's hearts beat faster and they felt proud. Although there are no banners, firecrackers, or gongs and drums, there are many people, and it is even more commendable when there are no people in many villages at the moment.

Mr. Doug, who has always liked to be quiet, may not forget this scene for the rest of his life. In Mr. Doug's view, the comrades of the county branch fought a crowd of people, and his country was far less prosperous than our people.

When he arrived at the village, instead of a symposium, Mr. Doug was going to check on the water source.

At that time, the person in charge of the provincial head office looked embarrassed, Mr. Jia was worthy of being a person who had been making a fuss for a long time, and was good at observing words and feelings, and said to the person in charge of the provincial head office: "You are from the provincial capital, you are dusty, and you are tired, so you can simply rest in the office of the project site, and the matter of looking at the water source will be handed over to them." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at what he had said about them, and everyone nodded their heads and immediately agreed.

The person in charge of the provincial head office said: "Then, it's hard work for everyone. ”

The person in charge of the provincial head office was not polite, and said to Miss Liu, one of the heads of the unit: "Please translate to Mr. Doug, he can't accompany him, but he has arranged a special person to accompany him." ”

Miss Liu, the person in charge of the unit, also wished that the person in charge of the provincial head office would not go, worried that he would go to the blind command, and he would not listen to it, nor would he listen to it, which made everyone in a dilemma and at a loss.

She immediately translated for Mr. Doug, and Doug said, "OK, OK." "Mr. Doug needed that, and when he was sleepy, he came across a pillow, which was very interesting. Perhaps God heard his prayers so quickly, and immediately answered his prayers, and it was done.

To tell the truth, the location of the water source is inaccessible, the path is covered by shrubs and weeds, and there are some black locust and other thorny branches of various plants, which grow to waist deep, and once people pass by, they are easy to be pierced by spikes to break the flesh or strain their clothes, and even few villagers are willing to go to the water source, but in winter, the leaves of the fallen trees are almost finished, and the weeds have withered, and the villagers go up the mountain to cut firewood. This is good, where there are fewer people, the environment is better. Especially in the place where there is a water source, there is no need for people to go to the activity. The surrounding area needs to be kept clean so as not to pollute the water source.

At this time, it is indeed very hard. The provincial head office is worthy of being a senior commander in charge, has foresight, takes precautions, and first affirms his views, and when some people have not recalled, they give people preventive injections, and very skillfully avoid this arduous journey, which can also be said to be a painful journey. At that time, everyone will stop gossiping.

Before leaving, Togo distributed some mineral water to everyone.

There were too many people and there were not enough points, so the person in charge immediately went to the school commissary and brought two more boxes, so that everyone was allocated a bottle.

That includes Mr. Doug. Of course, there is still half a box left.

On the way to the water source, it was like an adventure, Mr. Doug was very interested, and he rushed forward very actively, and Lao Yan, the deputy person in charge of the project site, was very active. He took a machete, walked in the front, cut down the thorns, killed the branches, and sure enough, his efforts benefited everyone, and he walked smoothly through the thorny road, and his clothes were preserved without being cut by the thorns. His performance made a very good impression.

Lao Yan's approach, Xiao Yan was not very optimistic, he also took a machete, but it was not as fast as Lao Yan's movements, so Xiao Yan sneered in the back.

Then, he followed Mr. Doug to answer the questions translated by Miss Liu, the person in charge of the unit.

Mr. Doug admired the style of the project officer, and kept giving a thumbs up, although he did not know Chinese, this gesture was the greatest affirmation, which made people feel physically and mentally happy.

As the sun rises, people walk and climb the mountains, and soon they get warm.

Fine beads of sweat were already pouring out of Shen Jing's forehead. Mr. Doug was tall, with long legs, and he walked at a decent pace, but he was a man who did not climb mountains very often, and gradually distanced himself from him.

They finally reached the water source. The water comes from the mountains, but it's not really the source yet. The water came out of the cracks in the sand.

The technician was present, and he explained: "This water is not the source water. It comes out of the water, but it goes to the surface, and then it goes underground, and here, it goes through the sand and gravel filtration, and the water they see, that's it. ”

Mr. Doug didn't know what he was talking about, so he looked at Miss Liu, the head of the unit, who translated for him.

That's when Mr. Doug understood. Lian said, "OK, OK." "Mr. Doug's mineral water has been drunk. As soon as he had an idea, he opened the cap, bent down, and put the mouth of the empty bottle to the gurgling water, and in a few moments it was filled with a bottle.

Everyone was puzzled, he looked at everyone, smiled, and then said a big call to see if everyone had no reaction.

Mr. Doug turned his attention to Miss Liu, the person in charge of the unit, and motioned for her to translate. Miss Liu said: "Mr. Doug said that he saw that the water here is not bad, and the amount is large enough. I plan to bring back a bottle of water and go to the United States for testing to see if the water can be drunk. He thanked everyone for accompanying him to see the water. Everyone finally understood, and applauded.

Mr. Doug then visited several more farming households. Then I went home.

Lunch was not eaten in the village, but in the county seat. Mr. Doug was very touched by the enthusiasm of the people of Guizhou County, and expressed his gratitude to everyone at the banquet through the translation of Miss Liu, the person in charge of the unit.

It's nice that he learned to say "thank you!" "Everybody understands these two words. It's a bit oily, but for Mr. Doug, he has done his best. Perhaps, he learned to speak in his hometown after many times of practice.

Upon his return, Mr. Doug conducted a test on the source water in the bottled mineral water he had brought back, and the result was unsatisfactory.

A lot of indicators are not qualified.

Dear Mr. Doug, how did you know that water testing must be carried out within 24 hours of the water sample being taken, and the bottles used for sampling must be strictly sterilized.

Mr. Doug's empty bottle has been contaminated, not to mention that this bottle of water has to drift across the ocean, first through the Pearl River Delta, and then to the United States, far more than 24 hours.

I don't know where Mr. Doug has been, maybe he has even been to Burma, which is even more time.

Lovely Mr. Doug, sincere, grateful, but unfortunately the technique is not up to par, perhaps too humorous.

The next stop is Baiquan Village, will there be a temple there?
