Chapter 154: Revisiting the Old Place (2)

The car continued to move forward, and all kinds of small buildings passed by the car window along the way, and Governor Chen nodded and said:

"It seems that these small buildings have not been repaired for a long time, and it seems that it has been the past few years that everyone's life has gradually improved."

As he was talking, a beautiful building came into view not far from the roadside, and Governor Chen asked:

"That's supposed to be the school, right?"

Lu Zhengdong is too familiar with the mountains and townships, and said:

"This is Lingdong Village Primary School."

"Well, it's a good repair, go see ......"

In Xihe, most of the rural village-level primary schools are muddy playgrounds with several rooms, not even a simple basketball hoop, and naturally there are no walls or anything like that.

The primary school in Lingdong Village is a new two-story school building, the playground is also paved with cinders, and there are two simple basketball hoops, which is really good.

The school was already out, and the teachers and students had gone home for lunch at noon, and it was empty. But Governor Chen still watched with interest.

"No matter how poor you can't be poor education, no matter how hard you can't be bitter children, just standing here, the Buddha in my ears sounded the sound of children's reading, children are the future is hope, especially in the countryside, to make more profound and beautiful changes in the countryside, the future depends on their ......"

Governor Chen also seems to be very emotional:

"A local school is the best building that speaks to a problem, at least with a focus on education. This also reflects the 100-year plan from one aspect, education-oriented. ”

Lu Zhengdong smiled and nodded. In a few years, the building of the party and government organs will become the largest and best building on the earth.

After a look in front of the teaching building, Governor Chen was attracted by a blackboard on the wall of the old house. Lu Zhengdong also introduced:

"This is the original house of Lingdong Village Primary School, Lingdong Village originally had no office space, usually when there are few people, they meet at the village party secretary's house, and they want to have a meeting or something like this in this school. A lot of notices are posted here. ”

"Village affairs open column?"

Pasted with the situation of the village's collective expenditure, the situation of family planning, and some propaganda things, the stone next to the blackboard of the village affairs is engraved with the specific names of the village affairs and the financial items of the village affairs that need to be made public. the collection and use of village reserves; the number of people in the village who enjoy the compensation for lost work and the subsidy standard; the use of the proceeds from the village collective economy; Funding plans for village public welfare undertakings such as village-run schools and village-built roads; the project establishment, contracting plan of the village collective economic project and the construction contracting plan of the village public welfare undertakings; The use plan of the homestead and so on. The following payment is ninety-one years, Governor Chen looked at it with great interest and asked:

"This is very interesting, this is what you formulated in the township back then?"

Lu Zhengdong nodded:

"At that time, I took over as the deputy head of the township finance, and due to some indiscriminate fees, ride-hailing fees and apportionments, as well as unclear accounts in the village, the relationship between the cadres and the masses was very tense for a while, and the work of collecting and retaining the overall plan was also very difficult. That's what came to mind. The above-listed co-ordination projects are all clearly stipulated by the central and provincial governments, and those who scoop up the red-headed text are not handed over, so that the people have a bottom ......in their hearts" Governor Chen nodded, and asked while carefully looking at the openness of village affairs:

"I'm afraid it's more difficult to make village affairs public than to announce the overall planning of retention, right?"

Lu Zhengdong smiled and said:

"That's a bit of resistance. However, the village cadres below still understand very well that in fact, it was less difficult to make village affairs open than to retain and co-ordinate, and the mountains and villages were originally poor villages, and the village finances were open to the public, and the income of the village collective was very small. It is clear from a simple point that government affairs are relatively complicated...... In order to truly collect and retain the overall plan according to the text, first of all, the township finance must have money, otherwise it is very likely that the consequence will be that the township will not be able to open the pot, and the cadres, workers, teachers and other people who eat financial meals will not be able to pay their salaries. However, it is easier to make village affairs public. It is not easy to insist and have something to say, which is not easy to ......"...,

Lu Zhengdong has a lot of affection for the openness of village affairs, and he also attaches great importance to it, because this is a system construction, and if it is done well, it can be pushed forward in advance in the whole province and even the whole country, so it will be more detailed when it is introduced.

Governor Chen nodded when he heard this, and seemed to be in thought. After a while, he said:

Then he thought about it again for a while before he said:

"Although the openness of village affairs you said is simple, but the significance is not small, the original village finances are confused, the people do not understand how the money is spent, and other things involving the interests of the villagers The villagers do not know the real situation, the people naturally have opinions, and they are open and transparent, and the people's mood is smooth."

Lu Zhengdong nodded and said:

"Governor Chen is in a word, the people's mood is smooth, many things are easy to do, and when this road was built later, the people were very supportive and enthusiastic, and it only took a few months to complete it."

Governor Chen nodded:

"Yes, grassroots work is not simple, in fact, it is also a thousand things, directly facing the masses, we must pay attention to ways and means in order to do a better job......

Governor Chen continued to look at the contents of the bulletin board as he spoke, looked at it for a while, felt that it was wrong, and asked:

"Why don't you have living expenses, do the people above come down to the village and don't eat?"

As soon as Lu Zhengdong heard Governor Chen's question, he said:

"It must be to eat, for this matter, the village cadres of the villages below are very big opinions, the mountain and many village collectives at that time had no income, at that time to the township is basically the village cadres to arrange life, when there are many people, the township will still pay, and the few people will forget it. However, this is the living allowance in the township is written on the account, and it can't be cashed out for a long time, and the subsidy that the village cadres should scoop up is also difficult to scoop up because of the uneven collection of the retention, and the result is that the village cadres come up in a year, but they have to post a lot of money, which makes the village cadres complain, and they don't have the heart to carry out their work at all, and some even heard that some cadres went to the village and hid, so the township considered it later, and the cadres in the township applied to the township first. The subsistence allowance is paid by the township to the families who provide food according to the standard, and is settled once a quarter. ”

Governor Chen nodded:

"Well, this is good, the cadres in the village are also farmers, and the conditions at home are definitely not very good, but they are eaten by big households, and they must not be able to stand it......"

As he spoke, he said to Yang Zaixing, the secretary who was taking notes on the side:

This article is also recorded, these things are very meaningful to rural work, and when we go back, we should organize personnel to investigate and study and improve them. Solicit opinions widely to see if it can be promoted throughout the province. ”

After seeing Lingdong Village, the group got on the bus and soon arrived at Shalin Village, Luo Jinming, Lin Dawu and others had already made a preparation, just waiting for the guests to arrive, the hot dishes were fried in the pot, and they were all looking forward to it at the door.

Governor Chen, who was sitting in the car, had sharp eyes and saw that Luo Jinming was dressed more exquisitely. Thinking that it was a cadre in the county, he said to Lu Zhengdong:

"Zhengdong, in addition to notifying the village cadres, you also notified the county cadres?"

Lu Zhengdong said busily:

"It's not the cadres in the county, it's Luo Jinming, the director of the handicraft factory we just passed by."

Governor Chen nodded, and then got out of the car. Warmly shook hands with Luo Jinming, Lin Dawu and other village leaders, Luo Jinming and Lin Dawu knew that it must be a big leader, but they didn't expect that it was a dignified governor, and the governor appeared in front of them alive, in such a remote mountain village. Visiting their home is something they can't think of in their lives, and it seems a little restrained.

Everyone shook hands, Lin Dawu wanted to invite Governor Chen to sit in the house, Governor Chen waved his hand, and looked at the beautiful little corridor of Lin Dawu's house:

"You've got a good building in this building. According to you, relying on the subsidy from your village party secretary, you shouldn't be able to repair this building for food"...,

Lin Dawu didn't hide it, and said: "My kid works in a handicraft factory and has a little income, but I can do some work as a craftsman, and I grow some tobacco at home." I planted some fruit trees and barely survived......"

Lin Dawu said: "In Shanhe Township, there are small bungalows like ours everywhere, and my family is ...... average."

Governor Chen said: "Barely getting by? That's too modest, I think your little bungalow is very good......"

Lu Zhengdong introduced:

"Lin Zhishu is the best craftsman in the whole mountain and township, and the income from selling bamboo mats is also very good, and under his drive, there are many people in the village who have increased their income by this."

Governor Chen nodded, looked at the lush bamboo forest around him and nodded:

"It's really a good project to adapt to local conditions."

After Governor Chen inquired carefully about the craftsman, he asked:

"Are there many people in the village who grow fruit trees? What about the income from growing fruit trees? ”

Governor Chen traveled all the way and found that the natural conditions of the villages on the mountain such as Lingdong Sarin were not as good as those under the mountain, and he was very interested in these projects.

Lin Dawu saw that Governor Chen was quite kind, and gradually let go, and said:

"There are a lot of people in the village who plant fruit trees, but there are not many people like me who use the land to plant fruit trees, most of them use the barren mountains and wasteland in front of the house and behind the house to plant some, anyway, the road is convenient, there is a preserved fruit factory in the township, they come down to buy in the season, do not worry about the market, and can always increase some income, this road is open, it is indeed very convenient to do anything......

Governor Chen nodded, and asked about Luo Jinming's handicraft factory.

The group talked outside for a while, and the meal was fine, Lu Zhengdong and Zhou Xingguo went to the kitchen to take a look, tasted it and felt that it was no problem, so they let the food be served.

Farmhouse dishes such as smooth pork made with fragrant red lotus flour, stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, and muntjac meat with cured meat are served one after another. The recipe for these dishes is very primitive, but the taste is pure, and Governor Chen is very interested, and everyone eats happily.

After eating, Governor Chen did not rest, he sat in front of Lin Dawu's small building, asked about the situation of the handicraft factory, and when it came to the handicraft factory, he inevitably had to talk about Lu Zhengdong and the matter of the "opening of Guiyun Temple", and Governor Chen couldn't help laughing after hearing it:

"Oh, these foreign businessmen, Hong Kong businessmen, all of them are extremely smart, and you can earn nearly two million from Hong Kong businessmen, which is really amazing."

Lin Dawu also smiled:

"Yes, just our township handicraft factory, can we still earn foreign exchange? At that time, we didn't believe it, but soon the money owed by the township to us village cadres was sent down, and it was said that the township would pay for it, and everyone would work to build the road immediately, so everyone had to believe it. When Township Chief Lu came to mobilize us, everyone was very skeptical. But this incident convinced everyone that it was definitely not difficult to make millions of dollars to build the road, so everyone enthusiastically followed the road construction, and the result was that the road was also built ......"

While talking, everyone got up and went to the other people's houses in the village to have a look, and when Governor Chen saw that there were still people living in thatched huts, he couldn't help asking:

"I came all the way, and I felt that the mountains and towns were quite rich, how could there be thatched houses?"

"Now this policy. There is no problem with a full meal, but it is not so easy to have some savings, and there are several situations that still live in a thatched house, one is missing no labor at home, no one goes out to work, and the other is poor due to illness, and there is lazy to do, just like this one. The eldest of the two brothers is ten years old, and the younger is sixteen or seventeen years old, and although their parents are gone, they can do whatever they want, go out to work, and build a few tiled houses. But the two brothers went out to work because the Li family was too far away, and they were afraid that they would not be used to it, and they were too lazy to burn snakes to eat, so they had to rely on food relief. Our village cadres and his relatives persuaded them, but the two brothers would not listen. ”…,

After visiting some people in the village and condolences to some old party members and old revolutionaries in the village, the group went to the mountain behind the village.

"It's a nice view."

Now is the spring back to the earth, the spring flowers are blooming, and the branches are hanging with new shoots. A field of birds is full of meaning, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, and the air is extremely fresh.

Lu Zhengdong had another feeling in his heart, the same was actually true in Shalin Village in the past, but due to the lack of roads, the common people in the mountains and townships were generally poor, typical poor mountains and bad waters, and now and a few years ago has undergone earth-shaking changes. Recalling the bits and pieces of the past in the mountains and townships, there is also a sense of sudden dream.

Governor Chen said again:

"There are many other remote towns and villages in the province that are richer than the mountains and townships, but most of them are supported by resources, and if they have resources, they will be rich in money, but they are eager for quick success, and the environment in many places has been damaged quite strictly, and in some places even the living environment has deteriorated. These things in the mountains and townships are very realistic, not only to develop the economy, but also to maintain the ...... of the green mountains and rivers."

Lu Zhengdong nodded:

"From the perspective of grassroots cadres, helping them make a fortune is the most direct response of grassroots cadres. In the early days of reform and opening up, this was nothing to the general idea of developing first and then governing, after all, it was the most direct idea of grassroots cadres to let the people fill their bellies. However, with the gradual deepening of reform and opening up, problems in this regard have gradually been revealed.

I encountered such a problem in Yilan County, Yilan has a lot of small coal needs, the coal market is good in the past few years, the local and foreign people are rushing up, private digging and indiscriminate mining, the result is that the mountain accidents are frequent, subsidence, landslides, mudslides are frequent, and more strictly is that some people do not care about digging indiscriminately, hollowing out the mountain, and many places on the mountain can not store water. As a result, the thousands of villagers living in the mountains not only have a problem with drafting, but also because the fields do not retain water, so there is no harvest, and eating is a problem, and it also brings a series of strict social problems, which always have to be solved and always managed, and as a result, in order to deal with these problems, the county pays far more than the resource tax collected......"

Governor Chen nodded and said: "The development of these resources can bring a lot of financial revenue to the local area and bring a lot of benefits to the people, but it has a potential threat to the environment, and it is a dilemma to ask for money and the environment." From the perspective of the overall interests of human beings, it is definitely the environment, but from the perspective of individuals, there will be different choices because of different interests and needs.

Zhengdong you are telling the truth, now many resource-based cities in the province such as Kapok City, in fact, is a coal industry city, now the coal hollowed out, the whole city is not only facing a difficult transformation, more difficult is because of the environmental problems caused by coal mining, although the coal industry of Kapok is mainly state-owned enterprises, the operation is standardized, but these problems are very serious.

We are located in the western part of the country, rich in resources, and after more than 10 years of reform and opening up, some concepts must be gradually updated, and we must pay attention to this aspect of the problem, in which the government must give full play to the role of coordination and supervision, let the two rely on a balance point as much as possible, and carry out new explorations in the development model, otherwise we will have to pay a very high price when the time comes......

These situations, Governor Chen used to see in the materials, he has long wanted to get out of the office, take a look at the real situation below, this idea has been in the mind for many years, thinking of it is a simple thing, but there are always all kinds of things entangled, can not be taken lightly, today is the real realization, this way, although the time is very short, the distance is not far, but I did see things that can not be intuitively felt from the written report.

Several people stood on the mountain and talked, and the driver who stayed at Lin Dawu's house hurriedly came up to report:

"Secretary Ge of Long Beach City, Mayor Qin and the leaders of Yanghe County are here......"...,

Governor Chen didn't look surprised at all, it had been an hour since he arrived in Long Beach, and Ge Yunchang and Qin Dongan didn't know that he had arrived in Long Beach, so it was strange.

Seeing a group of city and county leaders coming up, he shook hands with everyone and said:

"I just stole half a day of leisure to breathe fresh air in the mountains, see the mountains and rivers, eat farmhouse food......"

"The development of Shanhe Township is very representative......

Ge Yunchang is very clear that Governor Chen is in charge of the affairs of a province, and he will be leisurely to the point of going to such a remote mountain village to visit the mountains and rivers, and he must come with a purpose, but since he is accompanied by Lu Zhengdong, there should be no big problem, but he still wants Governor Chen's true intentions.

Governor Chen smiled, and did not take Ge Yunchang's words, he knew that since Ge Yunchang and the others had arrived, his private visit to Weifu would end here.

So the group walked back. Ge Yunchang took advantage of this opportunity to quietly say to Lu Zhengdong:

"Governor Chen is going back to the city in the evening, right? After all, the conditions in this township are limited, and you can't go out cuò......"

Lu Zhengdong agreed with Ge Yunchang's words, if something went wrong, he couldn't run away, and he also said in a low voice:

"These things were arranged by Director Zhou of the General Office, and I can work with him to persuade Governor Chen to go back......"

As he spoke, he said:

"It was only when I arrived at the border of Long Beach that I learned that Governor Chen was coming to Shanhe, and it is estimated that Secretary-General Qiu had told Governor Chen before...... Director Zhou has been following me, and there is no mobile phone signal on the mountain, so I don't have a chance to say a ...... to you."

Lu Zhengdong and Ge Yunchang have a good relationship, and he doesn't want Ge Yunchang to feel that he is not enough friends. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
