Man Baoyuan's eyes are already full of little stars.
In a place as quiet as Beiluan District, would anyone come to set up a factory?
Yu Yan thought for a moment, and became more and more sure of his path of kindness, and said: "District Chief, this is a path. If it is really successful, the people who will benefit will not be one or two households, nor two villages in one village.
We have many mountains here. Once the breeding industry flourishes, it will drive the economic development of the entire Beiluan District. Not only can we raise dairy cows, but we can also raise beef cattle. People can make a living while staying at home."
Saying that, Yu Yan also became a little excited.
Man Baoyuan was also stimulated by the wonderful prospects described by Yu Yan, and said excitedly: "Secretary, it would be great if this can really be done. Our farmers here are really too poor."
Unknowingly, he changed the name of Yu Yan to "Secretary" and blurted it out. This shows that Yu Yan's impression in his mind has begun to change.
This guy is not necessarily here for gold plating.
Of course, this is also related to Man Baoyuan's own character. This person seems to still want to do some practical things for the masses. Seeing Yu Yan's ambition to do things, he was also affected.
Yu Yan said: "District Chief, everything depends on people. As long as we do it, we can always change something. If we don't do anything, nothing will change, don't you think?"
"Yes, that's the truth. In the past, when Secretary Cao was here, hey!"
It seemed that Man Baoyuan originally wanted to criticize Cao Yanxi, but he swallowed it back. After all, Cao Yanxi was old and was once his superior. It was not the behavior of a gentleman to speak ill of people behind their backs.
Cao Yanxi only drank and was in a daze every day, so how could the cadres below him have any thoughts on doing things? No matter how talented Man Baoyuan was, he was still the second-in-command, but he could not change the habit of the entire district and township cadres to hang around.
Seeing Man Baoyuan swallowing his words, Yu Yan also took a high look at him. This man, after all, was a man, upright.
"Let's go and see the other side of the mountain."
Yu Yan threw away the cigarette butt and continued climbing.
"Okay!"
Man Baoyuan patted his thigh and followed him.
The two people walked and chatted, and gradually the conversation became more and more interesting, and the distance between them became much closer.
It looked like a small mountain peak, but it was really a long journey over it. When we arrived at another village on the other side of the mountain, the sun was already setting in the west.
Man Baoyuan looked at the small village in front of him and said: "Secretary, this place is called Wangjia Village. It seems that we can't go back today, so we have to rest here and talk about it tomorrow."
Yu Yan smiled and said: "Okay, it's okay. I'll just rest here for the night and chat with the villagers to understand their inner thoughts."
"Okay, I'm familiar with the branch secretary here, so let's go to his house."
At that moment, the two of them walked toward the village, hugging each other.
After walking for a day, Yu Yan didn't care. After all, Man Baoyuan was more than ten years older and hadn't walked like this for many years, but he was quite tired and his walking felt a bit dragging. Yu Yan naturally wanted to give in to him, which was impossible.
A man strides forward.
Sujia Village does not look very backward. Many families in the village have built new large tile houses. The village is not big. At a glance, there should be hundreds of families scattered in a valley. It is quite clear.
The water is beautiful and the scenery is picturesque.
"District Chief, the economic conditions of this village seem to be fairly average."
Yu Yan chatted with Man Baoyuan while walking.
Man Baoyuan said: "Haha, this is close to the district. The villagers are relatively flexible. Comparatively speaking, it should be better. Besides, there is a manganese mine in front, which has not been seriously developed yet. Many villagers are spending money there.
Ore for money.”
"Manganese ore?"
"yes."
"The roads here have not been built. Even if there is manganese ore, how will it be taken out and transported out?"
Yu Yan was very puzzled.
Man Baoyuan explained: "It's not large-scale mining, it's just small-scale mining. The manganese ore seam is relatively shallow, and you don't need any tools. You can dig out some of the ore with earth. As for transporting it out, you have to rely on shoulder poles."
There are not many. There are ore dealers from outside coming to buy it every month."
This situation is beyond Yu Yan's expectation. He never expected that such primitive mining methods still exist today. However, the seam of this manganese mine is so shallow that it can be mined by primitive methods, but it is a very good "gold mine"!
"District Chief, we must make good use of this thing as soon as possible. This is actually our advantage. It is inappropriate to guard such rich mineral resources and still receive relief from the state."
Yu Yan said immediately.
Man Baoyuan was a little embarrassed and said: "The secretary's criticism is right. That is, there is no money. Opening mines and building roads require a lot of money. The superiors don't support it, and we can't come up with the money ourselves, so we have to stay like this.
"
Yu Yan nodded and said: "Well, I can understand this. Let's think of ways to make a fuss about it. These minerals, if activated, will all be money, which is enough for our Beiluan District to develop. This is similar to the Antai District in the province.
The general policy of building an energy base is also consistent, and we must seize the opportunity!"
Seeing that Yuyan was sure, Man Baoyuan was also infected unknowingly and said: "Okay, as long as the secretary has this determination, I will fully cooperate!"
Yu Yan turned his head and looked at Man Baoyuan. Man Baoyuan did not avoid his gaze and nodded firmly.
"District Chief, thank you!"
Yu Yan took the initiative and stretched out his hand.
Man Baoyuan also stretched out his hand, held it tightly with Yu Yan, and shook it a few times.
The two people looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter.
At this moment, the age gap no longer existed, and the dissatisfaction in Man Baoyuan's heart also faded away. The barriers in his heart melted away bit by bit, and friendship was established step by step, which is indeed very gratifying.
When the two passed by a dilapidated adobe house, a young man wearing a jacket walked out of it, with a crew cut that was popular among urban youths.
Yu Yan was slightly startled. This young man looked very familiar.
"Senior?"
The young man also recognized Yu Yan and couldn't help shouting in surprise and joy.
"Wang Geng, is it really you?"
Yu Yan was also greatly surprised.
"Yes, yes, it's me...senior, why are you here?"
Wang Geng ran over in surprise and asked suspiciously.
Man Baoyuan smiled and said: "Why, the secretary met an acquaintance here?"
"Yes, Wang Geng is my junior high school student. When I was in the third grade of junior high school, he was in the first grade of junior high school. We were class representatives of the same teacher at the time, and we got to know each other after seeing each other a lot."
"Haha, this is really fate. I can also meet my junior here."
In fact, it's not surprising. Yu Yan's home is in Taocheng, and it's normal for the two of them to go to junior high school in the same school, but they didn't expect to meet here.
"Wang Geng, is this your home?"
Yu Yan asked. Man Baoyuan just said that this village is called Wangjiacun.
"Yes, yes, this is my home. You two, please come and sit in the room!"
Wang Geng was very excited when he met his senior. He repeatedly asked Yu Yan and Man Baoyuan to come into the room and sit down.
Since he met his junior here, Yu Yan naturally would not shirk away, so he followed Wang Geng into the dilapidated adobe house. The house looked dilapidated, but the house was neat and tidy. It can be seen that the owner of the house
He is a fastidious person.
"Senior, you two please sit down!"
Wang Geng asked Yu Yan and Man Baoyuan to sit down by the fire pit, and then hurriedly poured tea.
"Wang Geng, are there guests?"
A woman asked in the inner room, her voice sounded relatively young, and she was very elegant and beautiful.
"Yes, Mom, my former classmate is here."
Wang Geng replied loudly.
"classmate?"
The woman said in surprise, and then there was a sound of footsteps and she walked out of the room.
Yu Yan and Man Baoyuan both felt their eyes light up. The woman who walked out was about forty years old, with an oval face and willow eyebrows. She looked extremely upright. Although she was wearing simple peasant clothes, she had a certain aura of her own.
, her gestures and gestures are elegant, and she is not at all like an ordinary middle-aged peasant woman.
"Mom, let me introduce you. This is Yu Yan. We were in the same school before junior high school. This is..."
Man Baoyuan smiled and said: "I am Man Baoyuan, the district chief of Beiluan District!"
"District chief?"
Wang Geng was taken aback and couldn't believe it.
"Yes, there are also fake ones here. This person is not just your senior now, he is our new district committee secretary of Beiluan District, Secretary Yu."
Man Baoyuan followed the official routine and introduced Yu Yan's new identity. Lest everyone regard him as the protagonist and treat him with respect, but ignore Secretary Yu, that would be bad.
"Secretary? Senior...Senior, have you been transferred to Beiluan to be our secretary?"
Wang Geng was even more unbelievable, his eyes widened, and he looked at Yu Yan in a daze.
Yu Yan smiled and said: "It's all necessary for revolutionary work. I was just transferred here... Hello!"
As he spoke, Yu Yan extended his hand to Wang Geng's mother. He could see that this woman was not an ordinary peasant woman, so why she lived here as an ordinary peasant woman was hard to understand.
"Hello, Secretary Yu, my surname is Li and my name is Li Hui. I am Wang Geng's mother. Welcome Secretary Yu and District Chief Man to come to Wangjia Village to inspect the work."
The middle-aged woman held Yu Yan's hand graciously and introduced herself. She chose words and sentences very well and had an official tone. She might have been a female cadre before.
Yu Yan smiled and said: "Haha, it's not the inspection work. I just came here. I asked the district chief to be my guide and look around to understand the situation."
"Secretary Yu has gone deep into the grassroots. He is indeed a good leader." Li Hui also replied with a smile, and then called Wang Geng: "Wang Geng, you pour tea for Secretary Yu and District Chief Man, and I will get some melon seeds and peanuts."
"Um……"
Wang Geng nodded repeatedly.
Yu Yan waved his hand and said, "Aunt Li, you're welcome."
Li Hui smiled slightly, turned around and went to the back room.
Wang Geng was very surprised and kept asking: "Senior, how come you were transferred to our district?"
