Chapter 615: Rare Earth Minerals
"How can this be? What did my uncle do to offend someone? Who did he offend?" Zhang Weidong's face changed slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Grandpa is an upright person and strict with his children, and it is precisely because of this that Yang Yunli will have his father's "clean breeze on both sleeves" on the way home to pick up Zhang Weidong, so Zhang Weidong has already moved a little angry about the second uncle being demoted to the county local chronicle office.
This bully has bullied his uncle!
"Alas, this matter is quite complicated to say, and it is useless to tell you, but it has affected the mood of the New Year, so let's wait for the New Year, and then talk about it. Come, come, Weidong, I toast you, you became a university teacher at such a young age, and you are the most promising among our cousins. Yang Yuncong didn't want to talk about the topic of spoiling the fun, so he raised his glass and said.
already knew that the second uncle was bullied, how could Zhang Weidong wait for the New Year to talk about it, and after touching the cup with Yang Yuncong, he said: "Big cousin, you should tell me now, I have a friend who is an official in Lingnan Window, if it is indeed someone else who bullied our second uncle, I must ask for an explanation." ”
Zhang Weidong's friend is naturally Tang Xingbang, the eldest son of Tang Lao, secretary of the Lingnan Provincial Party Committee. It's just that Zhang Weidong said that the person he knew was Tang Xingbang in his current identity, which was too exaggerated after all, and no one would believe it, so he didn't directly mention Tang Xingbang's name.
Yang Yuncong naturally didn't know that his cousin's friend would be the secretary of the provincial party committee of Lingnan Province, and he couldn't help but shake his head secretly when he heard this, thinking to himself, although this reader knows a little about officialdom, he can't understand the complexity of officialdom at all. The second uncle is already the director of the county environmental protection bureau, so how can he be easily provoked if he can be directly brought to the local chronicle office for retirement?
Of course, although he thought so in his heart, Yang Yuncong couldn't say this on his mouth, but smiled bitterly: "Just ask for an explanation, this arm can't reach the thigh after all." Since you want to know, then I'll nag you about it. ”
"Hey, eldest cousin, Weidong, what secrets are you muttering about?" Aunt Zhou Keyun's daughter Zhou Keyun is a straightforward person, she saw Zhang Weidong and her eldest cousin bowing their heads and only talking to themselves, leaving her aside, and couldn't help but pout with some dissatisfaction.
As soon as Zhou Keyun shouted like this, everyone turned their attention to Zhang Weidong and Yang Yuncong.
Yang Yuncong saw that everyone was looking at him, so he had to say helplessly: "It's nothing, it's just that Wei Dong is a little curious about the second uncle." ”
Seeing Yang Yuncong mention Xu Changzheng, the atmosphere in the box seemed to be a little dull suddenly.
"Big brother, is the second brother in any trouble?" Yang Xuanjing actually felt a little strange in his heart about what he encountered in the hotel today, and when he saw Zhang Weidong mention Yang Changzheng's matter, the faces of his mother's family seemed to become a little unsightly, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Alas, it was rare for your family to come to Changhai for the New Year, and we didn't want to mention the matter of your second brother's family to you, so as not to add to your blockage and affect your mood. Now that you have asked, let's talk about it, lest you have doubts in your hearts, and you will not forget it, but you will not have a good New Year. Yang Changxing saw that his sister asked, but it was not good to deliberately hide it, so he had to sigh with a wry smile.
Zhang Weidong had already learned from his eldest cousin Yang Yuncong that his second uncle was demoted to the county magistrate's office just now, so he was not surprised to see the eldest uncle sighing at his nephew, but Yang Yingjing was inevitably a little surprised and anxious, and hurriedly urged: "What is the matter with the eldest brother, you can say it quickly." ”
"I knew you were going to be anxious. Yang Changxing glanced at his little sister, and then continued: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that Changzheng was recently transferred from the Environmental Protection Bureau to the local chronicle office. ”
"I said Lao Yang, can you say something reliable, transferred from the director of the Environmental Protection Bureau to the local chronicle office, this is nothing, so what is it?" The eldest aunt is a strong woman, and she is obviously angry about the fact that her second uncle Yang Changzheng was demoted to the local chronicle office.
"Yes, big brother, how can this be? This local chronicle office is a pension unit, and there is no way to compare it with the Environmental Protection Bureau? Is it that the second brother has offended someone?" Although Yang Shuqing is not a person in the officialdom, he also knows that the local chronicle office is a Qingshui Yamen that can see the scales of a fish clearly, and it cannot be compared with the current hot Environmental Protection Bureau, and he frowned when he heard this.
Yang Xuanqing knew that the Yang family had strict rules, and even if the second brother became the director of the Environmental Protection Bureau, he would not do anything corrupt and pervert the law when he was in power, and at most he would receive some favors and gifts during the New Year, so his first reaction was that the second brother Yang Changzheng offended people......
Yang Changxing also knew that what his wife said was the truth, and when he heard this, he shook his head helplessly and said: "Things have happened, so naturally I can only think in a good direction, can I do anything?"
Saying that, Yang Changxing looked at Yang Xuanqing again, shook his head with a wry smile and continued: "Little sister, you know your second brother better, if he doesn't offend people, how can he be transferred to the local chronicle office?"
"Who did the second brother offend? Can he be transferred directly from the director of the Environmental Protection Bureau to the local chronicle office?" Zhang Guodong finally couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this.
After living a handful of years, although he is just an ordinary people's teacher, he also knows that the director of a county's environmental protection bureau is still quite powerful, and without the nod of the county's first and second leaders, no one in Changhai County can touch him.
"This matter is a bit complicated, since I have talked about it, then I will start from the source, so that you don't have to be confused. Changzheng sat in the position of director four years ago, our Changhai is a mountainous area, not suitable for the development of industry, mainly forestry, animal husbandry and tourism, so the director of the environmental protection bureau will be relatively less real power than other counties and cities, on the contrary, because there is less industry, especially the polluting heavy industry, the director of the environmental protection bureau has fewer opportunities to offend people, so at the beginning Changzheng, the director of the environmental protection bureau is still relatively comfortable. However, in recent years, the price of international rare earth minerals has skyrocketed, and some people have begun to exploit rare earth ores on a large scale, driven by the profits of the boat. Originally, the mining was not under the control of the Environmental Protection Bureau, but by the Land and Resources Bureau. But because those people are mining uncontrollably, and the methods they adopt are often the most primitive and simple mining methods, my nephew can't call them what the methods are called. The eldest uncle stopped here and set his eyes on his nephew Yang Yunli.
"It is called heap leaching method and pool leaching method, which is to record the surface of the mountain, dig up and pile up the soil containing more rare earth ores or put it into the heap pool, soak it in eucalyptus sulfate, and then replace the rare earth elements in the soil into the soaking solution, and then add oxalic acid to the soaking solution, and then dry it after precipitation to obtain rare earths. This mining method not only has a very low recovery rate and serious waste, but also is almost a mountain-moving movement, which will not only directly destroy the mountain vegetation, bring serious soil erosion, but also pollute the surrounding water sources, causing farmland to be uncultivable and so on. Even after soaking, the soil contains a lot of sulfuric acid and oxalic acid, so it is difficult for plants and trees to grow for a long time. Yang Yunli saw that the uncle was looking at him, so he continued, but when he said this, there was a trace of grief and helplessness in his eyes.
Yang Yunli used to work in the Land and Resources Bureau, so he knew more about rare earth mining, but because of his father, he was involved and was transferred to the Civil Air Defense Office.
Zhang Weidong didn't know that Yang Yunli was still an employee of the Land and Resources Bureau, so he glanced at Yang Yunli with some surprise when he heard this, and then said thoughtfully: "When I came down at high speed, I saw that many mountains were not only completely desertified but also full of potholes, is it because of the large-scale mining of rare earth minerals?"
"Yes, it's the bastards. The most infuriating thing is that these beasts also smuggled rare earth ores at low prices and sold them to small Japan and other countries, causing a lot of resource loss. When Yang Yunli said this, he couldn't help but slam the table with his fist.
Although Zhang Weidong did not study mining, after all, he graduated from science and engineering, and naturally knew that rare earth minerals are widely used in cutting-edge military, battery materials, catalysts, LED phosphors and other fields, and can be said to be almost irreplaceable "industrial gold", which belongs to the national strategic resources, so he couldn't help but show anger when he heard this: "Is the second uncle offended people because of this incident and was transferred to the local chronicle office?"
"Alas, your second uncle's temperament follows your grandfather's, I have already reminded him at the time that Sun Chengzhang is not easy to mess with, not only has an extraordinary relationship with Zheng Guangjiang, the secretary of the county party committee, but there are also people in the city, but he recognized the reason for death and had to keep an eye on him. No, not only was he dismissed from his post as director of the Environmental Protection Bureau, but he was also brought to the Civil Air Defense Office from the Land and Resources Bureau with Yunli. "My aunt is a veteran employee of the County Finance Bureau, and she knows more about the officialdom of Changhai County, so she shook her head when she heard this.
"What? The second cousin is also affected?" Zhang Weidong's face was already quite ugly when he heard this.
"If you are affected, you will be affected, as long as you are safe and sound, you don't have to worry about living your life as before. The second aunt smiled helplessly when she heard this.
"What is safe and sound? Second aunt, do they still dare to make personal threats to our family?" Zhang Weidong's face had become very gloomy at this time.
Others don't know what Zhang Weidong's gloomy face means, but Zhang Guodong and his wife know that their son is now a fairy-like figure, and when they see this, they are faintly worried in their hearts, for fear that he will do something out of the ordinary. But at the same time, they were very angry, and they hoped that their son would teach the guys a lesson1. (To be continued)
