Section 4
Qiang Wei only learned of this two days later, and after sending Ouyang away, he plunged headlong into the desert. Although the situation in Hongshawo Village was calmed down that night, the fundamental problem was still not solved.
As soon as he thought about this, Qiang Wei's mood could not help but be heavy, and with the shortage of water in the entire river basin, the living conditions of farmers in the hinterland of the desert became more and more worrying. In recent years, although the city and county have jointly thought of many methods and introduced some remedial measures, they have all cured the disease but not the root cause, and it is a bit of a headache and foot pain. And often, the lack of policy coherence, coupled with the implementation of the county and rural three levels have to be discounted, the hidden dangers are left, and the first is also buried, and when the contradiction intensifies, the problem becomes acute, and then want to completely solve it, it is really difficult.
Hongshawo Village is a typical example. The village is located in the lowest reaches of the poplar river basin, which is the end of the river basin, which used to be basically a wasteland, with only a few families living here. There are many such situations in Shaxian County, and it is common for villagers to relocate automatically. On the one hand, it is caused by historical reasons, Shaxian County is too bitter and scorched in history, drought and lack of water, the wind and sand are so big that they can swallow people, and the continuous disasters and famines, which make it even more difficult for people here to live in peace. Not to mention, during the Republic of China alone, there were no less than three major famines, and desert farmers left their homes and fled in all directions. When the famine passed, they finally came back one after another because they couldn't give up this land. At this time, the homeland was no longer there, and the appearance of the desert had long become unrecognizable, so the desert peasants just found a small place to settle down again. On the other hand, the desert is vast and the land is abundant, which also provides the possibility for desert farmers to relocate. Under the small-scale peasant economic operation model, villagers often look at where to move. First move a few families, scrape together some money, dig a well, try to grow crops, and see that the crops can grow and live, and then the prosperity comes. Those who call relatives and friends slowly attract people inside, and when there are many people, the village will naturally be formed. When Qiang Wei first arrived in Heyang, there were less than 200 people in Hongshawo Village, and there were only 30 or 50 households. In just six years, the population has skyrocketed to more than 2,000 and the number of households has increased several times. Why? The land in Hongshawo is fertile, the groundwater level is relatively high, and it is easy to dig a well, and three or five households can dig a well. For the peasants, this is paradise, paradise. Although digging wells is the heaviest bitterness in the bitterness, can it be sweet if it is not bitter? Don't be bitter, don't be bitter, what do you do as a farmer?
Desert is really a donkey temper and a wolf nature. A few years ago, the water was still thriving, as long as the drill bit was drilled, you could find water, as long as the well column was lowered into it, you could make a well. In the past two years, it has been different and changed. First of all, the water is deep, the cost of drilling wells is getting higher and higher, and then, there are dry wells, dead wells, boiling hard work, spending half a day's effort, the well column goes down, it is dry, there is no water, at most dig out a few cars of wet sand, it is considered to give people a little comfort. As soon as there is no water, it will be difficult for people living in this sand nest. At the beginning of the year, the county and township planned to move the more than 2,000 people in Shawowoli and move them back to their original villages, and the province proposed that Shaxian County should close wells and land and reduce the exploitation of groundwater. Who knew that after forcibly closing eleven wells, it would cause a lot of trouble.
Qiang Wei first listened to the report of the Shaxian County Party Committee and the county, and the attitude of the county was still the same as before, he didn't want to move, and he couldn't move. Relocation is not a trivial matter, a vine is pulled up, and all the branches and leaves are moved, especially when it comes to follow-up issues such as compensation and resettlement, the county has a headache. In addition, there is instinctive resistance in the county to close the well and press the field. What's off? What to press? Shaxian County originally relied on wells for food, and without wells, how could farmers live? How does the county develop? Immigration is a direction, but if you want to move all 300,000 people, is it easy? Besides, how much effort has the county put in to dig these wells and open up these wastelands?!
Qiang Wei didn't have time to listen to this, the purpose of his coming today was to completely solve the problem of Hongshawo Village, and he could no longer let the villagers cry out for compensation and complain everywhere. The lesson of that day taught him that once a problem arises, it must be solved, and if you don't solve it, the villagers will take drastic measures. Today's villagers no longer have the word "afraid", what they hold in their hands is the No. 1 document of the central government on the "three rural" issues, with this document, they dare to go all over the world.
"Let's not talk about the situation in other villages, how to close it next, and don't say it, what should I do with the eleven wells in Hongshawo?" Qiang Wei interrupted the words of the county magistrate of Shaxian County, and asked directly.
"The county really can't come up with money, a well is compensated 100,000 yuan, 11 wells is 1.1 million, plus resettlement fees, relocation fees, a village and county finance have to pay more than 2 million. After opening this head, what will you do in the future? Besides...... "The magistrate of Shaxian County wanted to repeat the old words again, and Qiang Wei stopped him angrily:
"What do you mean, you can't solve this problem?"
Hearing that Qiang Wei was angry, the county magistrate of Shaxian County didn't dare to say any more, but he still didn't say anything, and he didn't say anything about it. Qiang Wei knew that Han Ye was right when he scolded him that day, no matter how good the central government's policy was, when it came to the bottom, it would be eaten by the dogs, and the peasants would not shine at all. His gaze swept over the venue, pausing for a moment on each face, which he was so familiar with, but at this moment, he felt strange and shocked. That day, he had already made it very clear at the scene, the compensation must be given, the well must be closed, and the excess land must be recovered. This is not only for the peasants, but also for the cadres at the county and township levels, but I didn't think that a week has passed, and Shaxian County has not moved at all! This is a matter of attitude, but also a matter of thought, from the depths of their minds, they don't want to solve this problem!
Qiang Wei left the venue angrily, and on the way he called the Municipal Finance Bureau, asking them to immediately allocate 1.5 million yuan to Hongshawo Village, and the money should be transferred to the village. As soon as the director of the Finance Bureau was about to complain about the difficulty, Qiang Wei shouted in a thick voice: "I don't want to hear the word 'difficult', please tell me, can this be dialed in place on time?" The director panicked on the other end of the phone: "Secretary Qiang, I'll arrange it immediately, and the money will be dialed down soon." When they arrived in Hongshawo Village, the county magistrate of Shaxian County also rushed over with a group of people. Qiang Wei ignored them, went straight to Han Ye's house, and said, "I will be responsible for giving you the money in two days, only 1.5 million, you look at it and give it to the whole village." But there is a condition, those wells that are dug more must be closed and filled within 10 days, and not a single well can be left. Since the land occupied is planted this year, the crops will be taken back first, and next year, you and the potatoes will be responsible for giving me all the withdrawal. As for the relocation, you have to give advice to the villagers. If you don't move, there will be no problem with these limited fields and a few wells to feed 2,000 people. ”
After listening to this, Han Ye stroked his beard and stopped making a sound. He didn't expect that Qiang Wei would come again, he thought that Qiang Wei was just coaxing them with words that day, and when he picked up Expert Qin, he would slip away. I didn't think about it, he really gave it, and he really wanted to take the money to compensate, and he was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He stroked his beard for a long time and said, "Strong ...... Secretary Qiang, with your words, my grandfather is happy, rest assured, if Hongshawo Village causes you trouble again, my old man's beard, you will burn it. ”
After the matter of Hongshawo Village was resolved, Qiang Wei returned to the city, and before he could discuss the matter of the county magistrate of Shaxian County with the Organization Department, the secretary general came to report, saying that Zhou Zhou had brought all the leaders of the ministry and bureau to the front line of drought fighting.
Qiang Wei was stunned for a moment and didn't speak, but in his mind, he was quickly thinking about this question, what does Zhou Cang mean? After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "This is a good thing, the drought must be fought now, and it must be fought to the end." The secretary general stammered a few times, didn't dare to tell Qiang Wei the gossip he heard, waited silently for a long time, and didn't see Qiang Wei have new instructions, so he left and left. Qiang Wei locked himself in the office and stayed alone for an afternoon, and when he was about to get off work, he called the head of the organization department and said that the county magistrate of Shaxian County had let him go in advance, and he should not mention it to other Standing Committee members for the time being.
After dinner, Qiang Wei planned to wait quietly for a while and sort out the situation in front of him.
An ominous premonition told him that something might happen to Ha Yang, and this time, it must be a big deal. Although this kind of premonition is for no reason, it is very strong, and there is really a posture of "mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings". He knows that the various crises lurking in Heyang may be about to erupt, this crisis is not only the contradiction between him and Zhou Zhou Cang and Qiao Guodong, but also the more terrible thing is that the mess has been dragged and suppressed, I am afraid that this time, it will be fully opened.
Qiang Wei felt scared and anxious, this is not fear and anxiety in the general sense, but the kind of real fear and anxiety born from the bottom of his heart as the secretary of the municipal party committee of a city with a population of 5 million. Perhaps, it is really that he has been working in Heyang for too long, and he is afraid that something will happen if nothing happens. Knowing this, he should have left Heyang smoothly in the adjustment two years ago and left this place of right and wrong, but at that time, he still gritted his teeth and said to the provincial party committee: "If there is no reason to adjust me, let me work in Heyang for another term, I don't want Heyang to become like this in my hands, I want to rebuild the original Heyang." At his insistent request, the provincial party committee finally respected his opinion and let him continue to serve in Heyang.
"We're looking forward to you......"
Unexpectedly, this expectation completely trapped him in Heyang.
Qiang Wei has no time to hurt his mind now, let alone regret it, he has to sort out the two most difficult things before the contradiction completely erupts, at least, he must be prepared to deal with it. One thing is the merger and acquisition of Hehua Group. Hehua Group is an old state-owned enterprise in Heyang, which was once very brilliant, not only the pillar of Heyang, but also a pivotal position in the province. It's a pity that after he arrived in Heyang, the enterprise is getting sluggish year by year, encountering an unprecedented market crisis, coupled with lagging management, outdated equipment, and technology updates can not catch up, the company has repeatedly hit a wall in the market, so far, it has been suspended for two years and seven months, and more than 10,000 workers are facing laid-off unemployment. If Hehua really goes bankrupt and goes bankrupt, it is really unimaginable for Heyang. For the whole province, I am afraid it will have a huge impact. But with Heyang's strength alone, and his strength, if he wants to save Hehua, it's really a fool's dream. It's not that Qiang Wei hasn't made efforts in this area, and the efforts he has made are really too many, but unfortunately all the efforts have been to no avail. Hehua, an old and decaying tree, is afraid that it will never be able to rejuvenate. Qiang Wei is unwilling, he really doesn't want such a huge enterprise group, he will die if he says he will die, and he doesn't want to see employees lining up every day to petition the city. That's why he took a huge risk and gambled Hehua's resurrection on Ruiter......
This is a dangerous move, if you don't get it right, you will be beaten with chickens and eggs, and you won't be able to catch anything, and you will give people a handle. In order to make this bet, Qiang Wei didn't know how many days and nights he had struggled, and in the two days when he negotiated face-to-face with Ouyang on Monday, he was still hesitating, whether to play this card, how to play it? At the critical moment, he still decided to gamble hard, and if the gamble was good, Hehua would not only be able to save life, but also regain his glory, so he would do a great deed and a good deed to Heyang. If you lose your bet......
Qiang Wei didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it, so he shook his head fiercely and threw the word "lose" out of his mind.
Another thing is the governance of the poplar river basin. As soon as he mentioned this, Qiang Wei couldn't help but be angry with Qin Xiyue. If Qin Xiyue had been able to shut down the wells and press the fields a few years earlier, he would not have made so many mistakes, let alone move the peasants in the mountainous areas such as Wufo down and set up some development zones in the desert. As a result, he moved the peasants down, the development zone was built, and wells were drilled everywhere, but Qin Xiyue suddenly wrote a letter, strongly urging the provincial people's congress to form a resolution to take measures to close wells and suppress fields in desert areas, protect groundwater resources, delay the rate of groundwater exploitation in the river basin, and give the poplar river basin a chance to breathe. As a result, a resolution was formed at the Second Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Congress, requiring Heyang City to shut down wells and land and return farmland to forests in areas where excessive groundwater has been exploited, such as Shaxian and Wufo, in the basin.
Qiang Wei is not saying that he opposes this resolution, but the problem is that in this way, the price paid by Heyang will be too great and heavy, not to mention the losses suffered by the peasants, the financial revenues of cities and counties will be greatly affected, and the pace of rural industrial restructuring will have to be slowed down or even changed direction. All this, he could not fail to consider. Also, when the wells were drilled and the wasteland was opened, the city and county introduced preferential policies, which were actively encouraged and supported, and it was only a few years of work, and the pressure had to be suddenly shut down, so how could he tell the farmers? Shutting down wells and pressing fields is by no means as simple as Qin Xiyue imagined, forming a resolution, the next document, you can close the wells and press the fields, then you have to talk to the farmers one by one, do the work, and check the original investment in drilling and reclamation, as well as the income in the next five years, these money must be compensated, where will the compensation come from?
Qin Xiyue, Qin Xiyue, you put forward this proposal, I don't know how much loss it will bring to Heyang! Could it be that the crisis in the Populus Huyang River basin and the danger of depletion of the entire basin are caused by a single city in Heyang? If the downstream mining volume is too large, then what about the upstream, why is the upstream not governed?
Qiang Wei couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out, and what he couldn't figure out even more was that when he was engaged in the development zone and discussed the plan, Qin Xiyue, as an expert, raised his fist, and in the final plan, he also signed it on behalf of the expert group. Now he's stepped up again, and he's become an environmentalist!
This old pedant has made me miserable!
Qiang Wei put away these chaotic thoughts and began to concentrate on reading the information. The information was prepared for him by the Political Research Office half a month ago, and the focus was on the situation of reclamation and drilling wells in Heyang in recent years, as well as the situation of controlling sand and planting trees in the river basin. If the finances are really unable to afford it, then he has to consider whether to continue shutting down the wells and pressing the fields.
This is also the real reason why he is in a hurry to solve the remaining problems in Hongshawo Village. He didn't want the contradictions in Hongshawo Village to expand and intensify, which would affect the overall situation. Moreover, he knew that Qin Xiyue was currently investigating to see what kind of attitude the city and county levels had towards shutting down wells and pressing fields. Qiang Wei didn't want Qin Xiyue to know his true intentions, nor did he want Qin Xiyue to catch any more tricks in this matter. As long as you grab the handle in his hand, you will be allowed to stab it. Qiang Wei is considered to have served this ****.
Qiang Wei was watching, there was a knock on the door, he hesitated, but still opened the door. It was Chen Muchuan, deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress, who came in.
Chen Muchuan came to the door, there was nothing good, and Qiang Wei didn't have a good impression of this person. Sure enough, the two exchanged a few polite words, Chen Muchuan lowered his voice, and said treacherously: "Secretary Qiang, there is something I want to think about, I still want to report to you in person, you should be mentally prepared as soon as possible." ”
"What's the matter?" Qiang Wei raised his head and asked unhurriedly.
"Yes...... Director Qiao, in the past two days, I found that he kept running down and always following ...... The delegates are together. Chen Muchuan slurred, as if there was something more hidden behind the words.
"This is normal, the director of the people's congress is not with the deputies, what else should he be?" Qiang Wei Dao.
"Secretary Qiang, I'm afraid you believe in people too much, the representatives that Director Qiao is looking for are all those ...... How to say it, I think Director Qiao is a bit unbright in doing this. ”
Qiang Wei heard what Chen Muchuan meant, but he deliberately pretended to be confused: "Old Chen, if you don't talk about this, I can't interfere with the work of your National People's Congress." Who Lao Qiao likes to find, that's his business, and he probably wants to understand the people's feelings. ”
"Secretary Qiang, you can't think like that, Lao Qiao has been in close contact with that person named Lao Kui recently, there must be an article here."
"Old Kui?" Qiang Wei suddenly choked and stopped talking. The name Lao Kui is so sensitive, Qiang Wei has been too busy recently, and he has forgotten him, and when Chen Muchuan mentioned it for a while, he suddenly remembered it again.
Chen Muchuan saw that Qiang Wei's face had changed, and knew that his words had an effect, so he added fuel and vinegar, and said a lot, and he even said that the relationship between Qin Xiyue and Lao Kui was also very suspicious. It wasn't until Qiang Wei waved his hand to stop it that he was unwilling to stop the topic, but his goal had been achieved. He came today just to give Qiang Wei a message, Qiao Guodong was restless again for a while. Chen Muchuan is also a person who accepts it when he sees it, and he is a little more shrewd than others in terms of observing words and feelings, and seeing that Qiangwei was touched, he got up and said goodbye. Qiang Wei didn't keep him, but said: "Lao Chen, there have been a lot of things in Heyang recently, and the National People's Congress has to worry a little more." ”
Chen Muchuan hurriedly responded: "Secretary Qiang, don't worry, I will take care of you." It's too late, you can rest too, don't be too tired, you have to pay attention to your body. ”
After sending Chen Muchuan away, Qiang Wei's heart became complicated, and he was no longer interested in reading those materials. Sitting on the sofa in a daze, he felt very lonely and desolate. Zhou Cang, Qiao Guodong, what are they going to do? At such times, they suddenly become active and perform on their respective stages, which is not a good sign...... It's okay if Qiao Guodong jumps out and gives him a kick and fall, the situation in Heyang is really difficult to control.
After a long time, he touched the phone in his hand, wanted to call the person, wanted to talk to her for a while. The feeling is so strong that I can't resist it. Whenever he was in trouble, he would always think of that person inexplicably, think of that face, although that person couldn't really help him, but he just wanted to listen to her voice, there seemed to be a power in her voice, something that helped him restore his confidence. The number was dialed halfway, and when he saw that the time had passed eleven o'clock, Qiang Wei hesitated again, would she have fallen asleep? Calling so late, will it make her think too much? His hand paused, and his mind suddenly became blank. After a while, he picked up the phone again, he was really unwilling to survive this long night so lonely, people sometimes need relief, they need more strength. And in the high position of the secretary of the municipal party committee, you can call for wind and rain, make others bow down, and even obey unconditionally. But none of that is the kind of power he is referring to, no. What Qiang Wei needs is a kind of spiritual rescue and a kind of spiritual chivalry. Or, nothing, just want to talk to her.
The phone eventually rang, rang for a while, and the other party answered. Qiang Wei was a little nervous, a little uneasy. "You...... Haven't slept yet, have you? He got ahead of the other and asked.
The other party smiled: "No, I'm watching Korean dramas, I'm so excited." ”
"You also watch Korean dramas?" Qiang Wei is really unexpected, she actually loves to watch Korean dramas, and she has never heard of her before.
"I've only recently been obsessed, don't say it, Koreans just earn tears." She seemed to be really fascinated, and while talking to Qiang Wei, she also sighed for the characters in the TV series. Qiang Wei was on the phone, and he could clearly hear the dialogue in the TV series.
After saying a few words, it was about her who realized that it was the secretary of the municipal party committee who was talking to her, so she said "Mom", turned off the TV, and said seriously: "Secretary Qiang, you haven't slept yet?" ”
"Can't sleep." Qiang Wei told the truth.
The meaning of the phrase "......" was so rich that she suddenly didn't know how to answer.
"I want to ask you, is there any progress in Xiao Quina's case?" Qiang Wei said.
She hesitated for a moment and said, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?" ”
"It's okay, I can't sleep either, just ask."
She obviously realized something, and her answer was serious: "This case is still on hold, and the situation has been reported to you, and there is no evidence, and no one dares to draw conclusions." ”
"What about Zuo Yiwei, what has he been busy with lately?"
"What else can he be busy with, he is thinking about running for office, what's the matter, he is looking for you again?"
"Nope." He laughed, for her frankness, for her unabashedness.
"You have to grasp the principles, this person, how to say it, I think it's a bit dark."
"Yes." His language began to become shorter, and it was always very effortless to talk to her, and he didn't need to speak at length, but a few words seemed to be able to explain the meaning thoroughly.
"Rest early, don't stay up too late." She said.
"Yes."
"The body is your own, it's boiled out, and no one feels sorry for you." She added.
"Yes."
Then both of them were speechless, holding the phone, listening to each other's breathing. This is often the case, and sometimes they can hold the phone and listen quietly for half an hour.
"Okay, you can rest too, you can't even watch TV." Finally he said.
She seemed to be obedient, and just pressed the phone quietly.
Qiang Wei couldn't sleep anymore.
