After receiving his eldest brother's affirmative reply, Ma Debao happily raised his glass and drank a glass of wine with him.
Ma Debao made a lot of money this year and his pockets were bulging. Renovating the school was a surprise he prepared for Mai Miao.
In a casual chat a year ago, Mai Miao casually mentioned school matters to him. She said that her father was currently worried about the problem of the school building. He went to the Education Bureau several times in a row, but the funds were never approved.
Although Mai Miao only said it once, Ma Debao remembered it in his heart.
In addition, he often goes to Jintan Village Primary School. Although he has not noticed how many people there are in each grade, he is still very clear about how many people there are in the whole school.
Nowadays, Jintan Village Primary School has five grades and more than 60 students. The school has only three classrooms in total, two large and one small. The smaller one is also used as the teacher's office.
Therefore, strictly speaking, there are only two classrooms available in the school. It is indeed a bit crowded for more than 60 students to share two classrooms, and with the continuous arrival of Diaozhuanghu, the school will have more and more students.
As a result, the two classrooms became increasingly crowded.
On the other hand, Li Jie did not participate in the conversation between the two brothers. In fact, he could more or less guess the reason why the Haiji County Education Bureau has not approved the school expansion.
The reason is simple. Soon, Jintan Village Primary School will no longer be included in the establishment of the Haiji County Education Bureau.
Calculating time, the Diaozhuang immigration policy has been implemented for more than two years, and the areas that were not perfect before are gradually being improved and become more regulated and institutionalized.
Years ago, Li Jie went to Qingtongxia Water Pumping Station once to discuss water distribution issues. At that time, County Magistrate Yang had been officially transferred to Qingtongxia as mayor.
Now that we have gone to Qingtongxia, we should also pay a visit to County Magistrate Yang. After all, she has contributed a lot to the water distribution in Jintan Village.
After the two met, Li Jie learned from County Magistrate Yang that the various resettlement sites in the Yuquanying area were about to reorganize their organizational relationships.
At present, the administrative relationship of each resettlement site is still affiliated with the original district or county. For example, Jintan Village is located in the Yuquanying Development Zone, but in terms of organizational relations, Jintan Village is still under the jurisdiction of Haiji County.
This is also the reason why Jintan Village Primary School is under the management of Haiji County Education Bureau.
But after all, Haiji and Jintan Village are hundreds of kilometers apart, so management will inevitably be inconvenient and there will be a lag in communication.
In addition, not all the Diaozhuang households resettled in the Yuquanying area are Haiji people, but there are also Diaozhuang households from two other counties in the Xihaigu area.
There are more than 20 resettlement sites, administratively affiliated to three counties, and the planning does seem a bit confusing.
If this situation continues, it will definitely be harmful to the dealers.
In view of this, the authorities are re-planning the household registration changes of Diaozhuang households. According to the information provided by County Magistrate Yang, it is expected that the official announcement will be made in the middle of this year.
When the division is completed, the household registration location on the Jintan Village villagers' household registration books will also become XX County.
Taking into account the news about the re-planning of administrative relations, it is not difficult to understand why the Haiji County Education Bureau has not approved the expansion application of the primary school.
Think about it, in a short time, your Jintan Village Primary School will no longer be a primary school in a township under Haiji County. If your application is approved now, wouldn't it take up the county's finances?
Moreover, Haiji County itself is not a large and wealthy county. On the contrary, Haiji County is known as a poor county. If the county has no money, the Education Bureau will also have no money.
In difficult years, the Education Bureau cannot even afford teachers’ salaries.
Without raising wages, the Education Bureau would not have any extra budget to grant township primary schools to build new school buildings. What's more, Jintan Village Primary School will no longer be under their control.
"Dad, that..."
After settling the brick matter, Ma Debao had to deal with the money matter. Although he was the actual boss of the engineering team, his initial start-up capital was given by Li Jie.
To this day, Ma Debao still has not been able to repay the money, and repairing the school will cost thousands of dollars no matter how much money is saved.
After spending such a large sum of money, Ma Debao felt it necessary to ask his father for advice.
Before Ma Debao could finish speaking, Li Jie reached out and interrupted.
"You can use your own money however you want. You don't have to report it to me. Moreover, building a school is a good thing. It's not too late for me to support you."
"Yes, Debao, mom also supports you."
Defu's mother on the side also echoed, although she looked very hurt, building a school is a great good deed. In the old saying, it is building virtue for future generations.
Therefore, even though she was reluctant to give up, Defu's mother still stood by her son.
Ma Debao giggled: "Thank you, dad, thank you, mom."
My brother supports it, my mother supports it, and most importantly, my father also supports it. It is only a matter of time before the school is repaired.
After settling the matter, Ma Debao was very happy. At this moment, he couldn't help but think of a picture in his mind. If Mai Miao knew the news, she would be very happy, right?
Well, my father-in-law will also be very happy, right?
Very beautiful!
Very beautiful!
"hey-hey!"
As he thought about it, Ma Debao let out several giggles one after another.
Looking at Shale's second son, Li Jie couldn't help but shook his head.
This boy was so doting on Mai Miao even before he got married. After getting married, he still didn't know how to dote on her. Moreover, he loved the house so much that even his father-in-law showed filial piety in advance.
Looking back, it seems like this kid didn't even buy anything for himself during the Chinese New Year this year?
Of course, Li Jie's thinking does not mean that he cares about this matter. He just expressed a slight emotion that "men are not allowed to stay in college".
On the other side, Shui Hua saw her little brother immersed in silly fun, and a smile appeared on her lips. She was very familiar with this state, and Ma Defu would also have this smile on his face for a while.
The two of them are indeed brothers. Their expressions and demeanor are simply carved from the same mold.
After a while, Li Jie looked at his second son who was still having fun, patted the table gently and said.
"By the way, Debao, if you look back and see Principal Bai, there is something. Remember to mention it to him."
"Ah?" Ma Debao said blankly: "What's the matter, Dad?"
"It's like this, it's like this, it's like this."
Li Jie organized his language and briefly described the reasons why the Education Bureau did not approve the application.
"So this is ah."
After listening to his father's story, Ma Debao suddenly felt a sense of understanding. Then he turned his head and glanced at his brother beside him, and said jokingly.
"Brother, you are the party secretary of Ermen Village, how come you don't even know about such a big thing?"
Ma Defu pursed his lips and said nothing. He just glared at him, the meaning of which was self-evident.
