Chapter 160: Conflict of Interests

The agriculture-related projects in the northern mountainous areas include two parts, one is the land contracting of the hillsides and the planting of walnut seedlings, and the other part is the deep processing of walnuts.

Walnut seedlings from planting to fruit, even if the most scientific and advanced cultivation methods are adopted, it will take three or five years, because the interval between the two parts is too long, and it is not surprising that there is a disconnect in the middle, Ye Jiayi almost forgot the part of the work she was responsible for, and suddenly heard Guan Yuntian mention it, although it felt a little rushed, but she immediately remembered.

"At that time, we had already made inquiries about processing technology and equipment, and if we wanted to start it now, we could contact the relevant authorities immediately. Ye Jiayi said.

"It's not that I'm in a hurry, but you have to start to implement, after all, for the deep processing of agricultural and sideline products, this is the first time we have involved, prepare in advance, and be familiar with it in advance. "Guan Yuntian said.

"According to the analysis of the consultation, this kind of deep processing project is no different from general industrial production in addition to stricter requirements for sanitary conditions, except that the raw materials are replaced by agricultural products. In addition, do you want to place the production site in the development zone or in your hometown?"

"Well----, I haven't thought about it yet, do you have any suggestions?"

"I think it's better to divide the processing into two parts, the peeling and hulling of walnuts in the countryside, and the oil production in the development zone. ”

"Why can't it be put together? Guan Yuntian was puzzled.

"As far as I know, although walnut peeling and hulling is also mechanized production, it requires a larger site, more labor, and relatively poorer environment, while the production of walnut oil must be carried out in a clean and hygienic environment. If the peeling and hulling process is placed in the countryside, the labor required can be solved nearby, and the follow-up treatment of walnut peels and walnut shells is relatively easy. Ye Jiayi explained.

"The site involving the development zone is easy to solve, and it just so happens that there is still 100 acres of land next to us that can be used. In the rural part, should the factories be built in a unified manner, or should each of the three townships be built in one place?"

"In order to take care of the employment of local villagers, I estimate that each township wants to build the factory on its own land, and there may be a dispute over this matter. Lao Ding guessed.

"It is entirely possible that there will be a dispute, not only the township mayor, but also the common people are willing to build the factory in their own township. Ye Jiayi also holds the same view.

However, the decentralized construction of factories is not only not conducive to management, but also increases the economic burden on Changda Group. You have thought about it very thoughtfully, but we can't settle this issue, so let's talk about it after consulting with the local government. Time waits for no one, I'll do it, Jiayi hurries up to prepare for the next step. "As long as it involves dealing with local governments at the grassroots level, troubles are generally indispensable, and Guan Yuntian is always willing to personally deal with difficult problems.

It not only involves the three townships and towns, but the key is to involve the distribution of interests, and which township the factory will be built in the future will certainly be conducive to the tax finance and employment there.

When Guan Yuntian reported the matter to the county, Deputy County Magistrate Liu was also in a dilemma, and he suggested on the phone: "Otherwise, I will first communicate with the three townships and towns, inquire about their wishes, and see if there is any high wind and bright festival." ”

"That's the best, if you broaden your horizons and don't care about this matter, there will be more opportunities in the future. ”

When Deputy County Magistrate Liu finished talking on the phone with the top and second leaders of the three townships and towns and explained the situation, none of the township leaders showed a high profile, and no one was willing to give up their immediate interests.

This can also be understood; after all, it is the creed of many grassroots leaders to benefit one party for one term of office, and who doesn't want to leave a name and a name for themselves? If they give up their low-hanging fruit, they will not only have a bad impact on their own political achievements, but will also be scolded by the local people, and even if they are transferred in the future, they will be complained about by their successors.

In the face of such a complex pattern of interests, Deputy County Magistrate Liu could not coordinate, so he discussed with Guan Yuntian and wanted to bring together the first and second leaders of the three townships and towns to discuss solutions.

"County Magistrate Liu, even you can't coordinate, so you can only ask them to help figure out a way. "Guan Yuntian said.

Three days later, in the conference room on the second floor of the county government, Deputy County Magistrate Liu, Guan Yuntian, and the first and second leaders of the three townships concerned sat at the conference table for a meeting, and Deputy County Magistrate Liu presided over the meeting, "Everyone, the purpose of bringing everyone together today, you may all be able to guess. That's right, the northern mountainous area of the agricultural project invested and developed by Changda Group has entered the fourth year, according to the plan, the next step is about to be launched, that is, to prepare for the construction of deep processing projects, according to the design unit and the food regulatory department, Changda Group wants to divide the deep processing into two parts to build a factory, they intend to put the initial processing process, that is, the stage of walnut peeling and hulling in the countryside. ”

"This facilitates the further processing of the walnut's rind and hard shell. Guan Yuntian interjected.

Deputy county magistrate Liu continued: "This involves the issue of building a factory, but where should the factory be built? Mr. Guan is very difficult for them to choose the site of the factory, and I communicated with several of you on the phone two days ago, and I see that you all want to build the factory on the site of your township. Today, we are calling everyone to brainstorm and set the site as soon as possible, and Changda Group is still waiting to start construction immediately. ”

After listening to Deputy County Magistrate Liu's opening remarks, the small conference room was silent, especially the six first and second leaders of the three townships, all of whom looked at the desktop in front of them expressionlessly, and no one wanted to be the first to speak.

Seeing this scene, Deputy County Magistrate Liu named them one by one and asked each township to make a statement, but the township leaders who were named were still fragmented, and no one said why.

Seeing everyone's embarrassment, Guan Yuntian said: "I understand your thoughts very well, as a grassroots leader, everyone is willing to seek benefits for the places under their jurisdiction, which is understandable, but please also understand our difficulties, Changda Group cannot build a factory in each of your townships!"

The best way to solve this problem is to build factories in our three townships and towns. Maybe it's because the woman is outspoken, or maybe it's because of her personality, the female mayor of Yuanshui Town came to climb up the pole.

Mayor Huang's proposal made Guan Yuntian cry and laugh, but Deputy County Magistrate Liu took the words, "Building factories in your three townships and towns can easily resolve the conflict of interests of everyone, but has Mayor Huang thought about it, how much difference is the investment between building one factory and building three factories?"

"Yo, I didn't think about the investment issue, but County Magistrate Liu thought it through. ”

Next, the atmosphere of the venue fell silent again. It seems that no one is willing to give in on the choice of factory site, after all, it is related to the political performance of the township mayors, as well as the tax revenue of the township and the employment of the villagers.

About five or six minutes passed, and Secretary Zhang of Jinzhai Township cleared his throat, "County Magistrate Liu, Mr. Guan, let me say a few words, please forgive me if I say something wrong." ”

"If you have any ideas, please tell us. Deputy county magistrate Liu said.

"I think Mayor Huang's suggestion is indeed a feasible solution to the problem, after all, we are three different townships, and various interests need to be balanced. ”

"But Secretary Zhang, the three townships will build factories separately, which will make Mr. Guan and their Changda Group increase their investment twice, for such a specific problem, you also need to consider for others!"

"I know investment is a problem, but can we figure out how to not increase the economic burden on Mr. Guan and their enterprises?"

"If the townships can solve the investment problem on their own, the suggestion of you and the mayor of Shuiyuan Town, Huang, is really a good plan, at most it will add a little trouble to the general manager in the construction of the factory and the daily management. Deputy county magistrate Liu said.

"Where do towns and villages find money to invest?"

"If the township has funds, can it still be so troublesome?"

"To build a processing plant like that, 1.8 million is not enough, Secretary Zhang, I don't see it, your ability is really great!"

The other first and second leaders talked about it, making Lao Zhang red-faced, and he hurriedly explained: "Where can I find money? ”

"Okay, don't misunderstand what Secretary Zhang meant, his thinking with Mayor Huang is not unreasonable, can you find a way to deal with the matter of funds? I called everyone here, just to let you find a way to solve the problem, Mayor Huang and Secretary Zhang are actively using their brains, you can't watch the excitement!" Deputy County Magistrate Liu said solemnly.

"County Magistrate Liu said well, in order to solve the problem, let's work together to find a way, brainstorm, any kind of idea can be put forward, feasible of course good, it doesn't matter if it's not feasible. "Guan Yuntian said.

Township Chief Zhao of Jinzhai Township frowned and said: "County Magistrate Liu, you know that the grassroots government has no ability to raise funds now, and even if the township comes forward to guarantee, it is prohibited by the policy, and it is really difficult to find a way to fund this fund." ”

"It's not to let your three towns invest in building factories, the project is Changda Group, all the investment should of course be borne by us, the key is that the investment in building a factory and building three factories is too different, and the funds required greatly exceed the original plan, which has brought great trouble to our work. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Obviously, there are two ways to solve the problem, one is to build factories in three townships separately, but face the problem of investment cannot be solved, and the other is to build a factory in a suitable location, which involves how to balance the interests of the three townships. Let's analyze which plan is the least difficult and the most feasible?" Deputy County Magistrate Liu summed up the problem.

"There is no doubt that whether it is from the investment of factory construction funds, or the future management, it must be the most advantageous to build a factory in one place, and the rest is how to balance the interests of the three parties, I think, this problem must be easier to solve than the financial problem. Secretary Sun of Linshan Town said.

Others agreed.

"Well, everyone is worthy of being the main leaders of the township, and it seems that they still take the overall situation into account. Now that a consensus has been reached on the issue of building a factory, let's continue to use our brains to think about how to balance the interests of the three townships. "Deputy County Magistrate Liu wants to settle things down in one go.

Seeing that everyone did not speak, Guan Yuntian said: "I put forward a suggestion for your reference, it can be regarded as throwing bricks and attracting jade, no matter where this factory is built, the proportion of employment in the future will be determined according to the area of mountains and hills contracted by each township, which is one of them; second, after the formal operation of the enterprise, the taxes and fees paid are also distributed according to the area of mountains and hills; third, no matter which township the factory is built in, it will be regarded as a common investment attraction project of the three townships, and this point will be explained to the relevant departments by the county magistrate Liu. ”

"Mr. Guan's proposal is very creative, but what is the basis for determining the factory site?"
