As the first resettlement village to eliminate poverty in an all-round way, the achievements made by Jintan Village are obvious to all. Over the past five years, Ma Defu has taken root at the grassroots level and worked conscientiously. Not only has he done his job well, he has also opened up a new path for other resettlement villages.
The road out of poverty.
Although other villages have not developed as rapidly as Jintan Village, thanks to semi-mechanized farming, most resettlement sites have become self-sufficient.
Among them, those who cannot achieve self-sufficiency are mostly newly established resettlement villages.
Don't underestimate the word "self-sufficiency". Self-sufficiency means that farmers can eat enough by themselves without the need for the government to issue relief funds or food relief.
Before Diaozhuang immigrated, based on a family of five people, the government would provide relief twice a year, one hundred pounds of wheat each time, and each time it would cost 60 yuan. Although this standard does not seem to be much, it is a tower of sand. Looking at the entire Xihaigu
In this region, the number of poor people is as high as 1.4 million.
With an average family of five, 1.4 million means 280,000 households. One household receives relief payments twice a year, totaling 120 yuan. The fiscal expenditure of 280,000 households is more than 33 million yuan.
If two hundred pounds of wheat are included, the annual relief expenditure alone will reach nearly 60 million.
In 1994, 60 million, what is the concept?
Especially for Ning Province, 60 million is definitely not a small sum, and this does not include poverty alleviation expenditures in other regions.
Therefore, the huge burden that Ning Province has been carrying in the Xihaigu area is also the main battlefield for poverty alleviation in Ning Province. If the Xihaigu area can be lifted out of poverty, the poverty population in Ning Province can be reduced by more than half.
In the past five years, the Yuquanying area has welcomed a total of 100,000 diaozhuang households, an average of 20,000 people per year.
Although 20,000 people are a bit insignificant compared to the more than one million poor people in Xihaigu area.
Although it is difficult at the beginning, if the Diaozhuang households can get rid of poverty through immigration, Diaozhuang immigration will definitely be a smooth road for the people who stick to the Xihaigu area.
The rapid development of Jintan Village has undoubtedly given a boost to Diaozhuang’s immigration work!
Facts have proved that Diaozhuang immigration is not wrong and is indeed one of the important means to alleviate poverty!
Because of the outstanding achievements of Jintan Village, this time, Ma Defu was selected as a grassroots representative to participate in the discussion meeting on the establishment of an immigration demonstration area, and he even made a report at the meeting.
The establishment of an immigration demonstration zone was a joint decision made by DWs from Fujian and Ningxia provinces. The Fujian delegation conducted two rounds of inspections and finally decided to establish a demonstration zone in the Yuquanying area.
Therefore, the level of this seminar was very high. Not only the city and province sent working groups, but even Fujian Province also sent working groups to participate.
Being able to give a report at a meeting of this level, Ma Defu's future is bright.
After the meeting, the county leaders kept Ma Defu for a while, first encouraged him, and then told him that the demonstration area would most likely be located in Jintan Village.
After all, in the Yuquanying area, there is no place more suitable to serve as a demonstration area than Jintan Village.
Jintan Village is the first village to be built, the first to be self-sufficient, and the first village to be lifted out of poverty. Moreover, various industries in Jintan Village can also radiate to the surrounding villages and drive the development of surrounding villages.
As the direct leader, Yongning County DW is very familiar with the development of the Yuquanying area.
If the economic data of each village in the Yuquanying area is plotted on a map, you can find that the closer the village is to Jintan Village, the higher the income, and the further away, the lower the income.
In the courtyard.
Li Jie glanced at Ma Defu, who was stunned on the spot. A few years later, although Ma Defu had grown a lot and no longer took everything on his face, he was still invisible in front of Li Jie.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
Ma Defu nodded, there was no need to hide this kind of thing, and said.
"Dad, you know about East-West poverty alleviation, right?"
"You know, didn't an inspection team from Fujian province come to the village in March?"
Jintan Village is the "Pearl" of the Yuquanying area. When visiting Yongning County from Fujian Province, it is inevitable to visit here.
In March, the advance team from Fujian Province arrived in Jintan Village. As the village party secretary, Ma Defu was naturally one of the reception members. Although Li Jie did not show up at that time, he knew every move of the advance team.
"Today I went to the county for a meeting. It was said at the meeting that Emen and Fujian provinces have decided to establish an immigration demonstration area. The final location will be at Emen Yuquanying, and it will most likely be in Emen Village."
?
Hearing the news, Li Jie frowned secretly.
Why is this demonstration area still located in Jintan Village?
It doesn't make sense.
In the past few years after entering the dungeon, although Li Jie often fished for fish and did not have full firepower, his few tricks were enough to benefit Jintan Village for a lifetime.
As of today, Jintan Village has been lifted out of poverty and is on the road to prosperity.
Therefore, Jintan Village is not suitable as a demonstration area either at the political level or at the economic level.
What is the purpose of establishing a demonstration area?
First, it is to establish a node where the two provinces meet to facilitate the advancement and implementation of follow-up work.
Secondly, the demonstration area is also a window both internally and externally. Internally, it can serve as a leading demonstration, and externally, it can serve as a witness and display.
But, what about Jintan Village?
Although Jintan Village can play a leading role, Jintan Village has already blazed its own path and cannot fully demonstrate the effectiveness of counterpart assistance work.
After thinking about it, Li Jie didn't understand what was going on.
However, let's make peace with what we have come. If Jintan Village really becomes an immigration demonstration area like in the original work, it would not be a bad thing.
By then, various products produced by Jintan Village, such as wolfberry, mutton, sheepskin coats, woolen sweaters, licorice, etc., can be seamlessly entered into the Fujian market at almost no cost.
On the other side, Ma Defu keenly caught the flash of surprise on his father's face, so he asked curiously.
"Dad, what's wrong? Is there something wrong here?"
"No, this is a good thing." Li Jie waved his hand and replied with a smile: "You are lucky, this promotion, it seems you can't escape even if you want to."
Ma Defu scratched his head and smiled naively: "Dad, I don't care whether I get promoted or not. What I care about is getting rich together with my fellow villagers. This is what I promised them, but I haven't done it yet. How can I do it?"
What if you leave? Isn’t that like a deserter?”
Over the years, it's not like the superiors haven't seen Ma Defu's achievements. The county has tried to promote Ma Defu several times, but he was rejected every time by this guy, and the reasons he gave each time were the same, just like what was mentioned above.
