According to Xiaoliang, Lin Haiqing retired from the District Cultural Bureau and returned to his hometown in 2009. As soon as he returned to his hometown, he began to pay attention to the river in front of his home. This river is called Dingqiao River. He grew up with his former mother.

The river has become a sewage river, and the stench is so high that it is distressing. What can be done to make the river clean? After observation, he found that the main problem is that the villagers directly discharge domestic sewage into the river and throw garbage into the river, which has accumulated over the years.

, the river became a smelly ditch. He decided to change this situation and went door to door to do ideological work and persuade the villagers to protect the river. At first, the villagers ignored him, thinking that the old man was nosy and had nothing to do when he was full. He persisted for a long time.

After going down, the villagers were moved and began to restrain their behavior and cooperate with him to manage the river. Zhang Heqing paid for himself to build a sewage treatment tank and a purification tank for the village, and concentrated the domestic sewage into the sewage treatment tank and other purification tanks.

After filtering, it was discharged into the river. In May 2015, he suddenly fell ill and had an operation to remove his larynx due to laryngeal cancer. After the operation, he could not speak and wore a cannula around his neck. Even so, he still insisted on patrolling the river every day.

, he carries a writing board and a red armband and insists on patrolling the river every day. For seven years, he has been unstoppable, rain or shine. The villagers affectionately call him the "Silent Water Smelter". For many years of protecting the water, this "Silent Water Smelter"

He has continued to speak out for Ye Shui, written hundreds of opinions on Ye Shui, and solved many Ye Shui problems. He wrote a line on his writing board: "For the sake of future generations, I will always manage the water industry."

Go down.'"

After hearing Zhang Heqing's deeds, Dongfang Jian said with emotion: "It is because of the persistence of these people that our environment will not be polluted into disasters."

After leaving the Huanku Highway, they turned onto a village road and drove in for half an hour to Dingqiao Village. They parked the car at the center of the village. Dongfang Jian asked: "Do you know Lin Haiqing's home?"

Xiao Liang looked at his phone and said: "Old Lin must be patrolling the river at this time. Let's go to the river to find him."

The Dingqiao River is not big. The narrowest channel is only more than ten meters wide. The entire river passes through the village from top to bottom, and a small T-shaped bridge connects the villages.

Dongfang Jian pointed at the small bridge and asked, "This is probably the origin of the village's name."

"probably."

They walked onto the small bridge. The bridge was so narrow that taller cars could not pass. Standing on the bridge, they looked far into the distance and saw the river winding toward the Changhu Reservoir like a giant python.

"I found that the villages in the reservoir area are very beautiful," Dongfang Jian said.

"That's right, if the water is clear, every small village will be a paradise." Xiao Liang said proudly.

"It will come soon. Aren't we all here for this goal?"

"Look, that's Lao Lin." Xiao Liang pointed to an old man by the river upstream and said.

"Let's go there quickly." The two of them quickened their pace and followed.

Lin Haiqing was carrying garbage by the river, and Xiao Liang shouted: "Old Lin."

He turned around and saw that it was Xiaoliang. He opened his mouth and made a gurgling sound, with a smile on his face. Dongfang Jian took a closer look and found that he was of medium build, with gray hair and thin cheeks. He wore a cannula around his neck and held a hand in his right hand.

A pair of pliers and a plastic bag in the left hand.

Xiao Liang pointed at Dongfang Jian and said to him: "This is Comrade Dongfang Jian from the District Yeshui Office. He is here to learn from you."

Lao Lin put down the tools in his hands and stepped forward to hold Dongfang Jian's hand firmly to express his welcome.

Dongfang Jian explained the purpose of his visit to Lao Lin. Lao Lin turned around and picked up a small writing board by the stream and wrote, "Okay, I have all the information at home. I will get it to you when I get back."

The three of them went back to Lao Lin's house together. Lao Lin's house was a small courtyard. When entering the courtyard door, there was a path. There were more than ten pots of orchids in the yard. The leaves were green and dazzling. Each pot had three or four flowers of varying sizes.

There are flower buds ready to bloom, there are fragrant stamens, and the courtyard is full of fragrance. It seems that Lao Lin is a person who loves nature. He lives in a two-story small bungalow with a brick and wood structure.

A small white dog rolled over like a snowball, and Lao Lin bent down to hold it in his arms.

"You're back." A kind aunt came out of the house and asked. Seeing Dongfang Jian and the two of them, she said enthusiastically: "Hey, we have guests, please sit down." There were bamboo chairs under the eaves of the house, and the aunt greeted her.

They sat down and immediately went back into the house to make tea for them.

Lao Lin put down his tools, changed his shoes, and walked from the open-air stairs to the room on the second floor. After a while, he came down and handed a stack of information to Dongfangjian in his hand.

Dongfang Jian took it and took a look. The four characters "Yeshui Experience" were written on the cover. He couldn't wait to open the cover and read the content inside. It contained detailed records of Lao Lin's physical examination and experience in Yeshui over the years. He said while reading: "

Great." Especially the construction of sewage tanks and purification tanks provides practical value for the management of domestic sewage in mountain villages.

Due to time constraints, it was not possible to read all the information. Dongfang Jian asked: "Old Lin, lend me this information and I will take it back to study it. Is that okay?"

Lin Haiqing nodded frequently. He wrote down these experiences for reference by other places. This was his wish. The comrades of the District Water Treatment Office took a fancy to it, and he was naturally very happy.

"Old Lin, it's getting late. Let's go back first. Thank you for your valuable experience." Dongfang Jian said.

"It's getting late. You should have dinner here before going back." The aunt said.

"No, aunt, thank you."

Dongfang Jian sent Xiao Liang back to Hutian Township. He asked: "Xiao Liang, are you a local?"

"No, I'm from Ningjiang Town."

"Really? What a coincidence. I have worked in Ningjiang Town for many years and I returned to the District Yeshui Office today."

"In this way, we are still half fellow villagers."

"Okay, okay." Dongfang Jian said happily.

Back in the office, Director Yang asked: "How was it? Dongfang Key, how was the harvest?"

"It's a great harvest. Lao Lin gave me all the treasures packed in the box."

"As long as you are satisfied, let's go and have a meal together."

"Director Yang, the meal is free, I have to rush back to the city." Dongfang Jian declined.

"It's a rare time for you to come here, how can you not entertain me? Director Lin will say that I am a stingy person when he meets me. You just missed the meal when you go back at this time. Besides, this place is not far from the city, and you can't go back after eating.

Not too late."

"It's better to waive it, thank you!" Dongfang Jian said. He came down to investigate and it was a nuisance to others. How could he be treated as a guest?

"Uh, Dongfang Jian, isn't this a foreign policy? There are still many things that have not been reported to the leader? We chatted while eating, so we can eat and work well."

If I continue to refuse, it will be a bit unkind, and I will be scolded as putting on airs and being bureaucratic. This is not a light crime. Dongfang Jian said: "Okay then."

"Xiao Liang, please call everyone here and get to know Dongfang Jian." Director Yang said.

"good."

There were four people from the Hutian Township Water Treatment Office. They divided into two cars and went to the "Hutian Taste" restaurant by the reservoir for dinner. Director Yang was very familiar with the owner, and he shouted: "Lao Tian, ​​have a pot of wild fat-headed fish, and you can give us the other dishes."

match."

"Dongfang Key, this is the authentic wild fathead fish in the lake. The meat is tender and delicious. You will never get it in the city." Director Yang said.

The restaurant's business was good, and the whole hall was full of customers. Dongfang Jian asked, "The business here is so good every day."

"More or less, most of them are guests from the city who come here to try new things."

A large pot of fat-headed fish was served. Director Yang gave Dongfang Jian a piece of fish head meat and two spoons of soup and said, "Dongfang Jian, try it quickly."

"Thank you!" Dongfang Jian ate it. It was indeed delicious, without any fishy or muddy smell. He didn't like to eat river fish on weekdays, so there was inevitably a fishy smell.

"How is it?" Director Yang asked.

"It's really delicious, different from what I usually eat." Dongfang Jian said.

"It's delicious. You should go back and promote it more. Come and eat again."

"Okay." Dongfang Jian politely took another large piece of fish and a large spoonful of soup.

"After the company moved away, the township considered adapting measures to local conditions to vigorously develop farmhouses and expand income-generating channels for villagers. I plan to organize a group of people to come here to learn the art of cooking fish and go back to promote it."

"Is this boss willing to teach?"

"I have a buddy who has to teach even if he doesn't teach." Director Yang said mysteriously.

"Your idea is good, but you must also control the scale. Don't swarm the place. If there are too many visitors, it will still pollute the environment. This lesson has been learned everywhere."

"I know that we must be more refined, raise the entry threshold, and integrate food, drink, entertainment and environmental protection into consideration."

After the meal, Director Yang paid for the meal with his own money. He smiled and said, "Dongfang Jian, now you are eating well."
