"This is really a place where immortals stay!" Chen Taizhong, who had just arrived, was very excited when he looked at Donglinshui Village under his rule.
Actually, the wording of this guy's words was not very accurate.
He should say that this is a place "only" for immortals to stay. As for humans, it is definitely not suitable to live here. The conditions are really a little bit too bad.
Thirty years ago, Donglinshui Village was still a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. The entire village was located in a hilly area, with the Baifeng River gurgling to the east. Some people could drive fishing boats and cast nets to catch fish.
The hills are covered with dense woods and shrubs, and there are pheasants and hares everywhere in the woods, which is full of life.
There is not much arable land in Donglinshui Village, and these arable lands are not only barren, but also have shallow cultivation layers. The food produced each year is not much. Except for good harvest years, in ordinary years, it can only provide 80% of the food for the villagers.
.
In short, coupled with the sideline businesses such as fruits, and the villagers selling some hand-processed products to outsiders, life here can be considered self-sufficient except for the extraordinary years.
But in recent years, with the development of economy, Donglinshui has also begun to be affected, and this poor resource has been viciously exploited.
As a result, the current situation is like "hell on earth". The village of Donglinshui has begun to turn into a desert.
The word desertification is not very accurate. To be more precise, it is "rocky desertification". This is an ecological disaster that is more difficult to control than deserts.
To describe it in one sentence, the trees on the hills have disappeared, so the poor soil has been washed away by the water. Now, in Donglinshui Village, except for the cultivated land, other places are just stones next to stones, and stones are piled on top of each other.
Holding stones.
When it rains, there are spectacular waterfalls. When it stops raining, there are piles of bare pebbles, which cannot hold water and are extremely unfavorable for human habitation.
Even the Baifeng River, which used to be used for fish and shrimp farming, now has little more than a child's urine during the dry season.
This is a very difficult disaster to control. Someone once proposed building a reservoir, which is a good idea, but it is unrealistic.
How to build a reservoir? There is no soil around. In addition to blasting out stone pits to store water, we can only build it with reinforced concrete. How much will it cost?
The terrible thing is that the temperature in Phoenix is relatively high all year round, and water evaporates easily. Living here is really challenging.
Ordinarily, facing this situation, Chen Taizhong should be complaining a bit. It doesn't make any sense whether he is the head of Bird Village or not.
People who think this way are wrong. He is here to communicate with people as an official. As for how miserable the villages under his rule are, he doesn't care at all, and he doesn't want to care.
As for people who cultivate immortality, it is not difficult for them to cut off their emotions and sex.
So, as soon as he arrived in the village, he was running around carelessly, looking for people to chat. In the past, there was no reason to insist on communicating with others. Now he is the deputy village chief. He is the deputy village chief. He can just grab some.
Chatting with people is easy.
The village chief is a local, and his surname is Li, which is a common surname in the village - in fact, it is also a common surname in the country. He is tall and thick-set, and it is said that he has some underworld background.
In fact, an ostrich cannot pop out of a chicken coop. How can there be any underworld in such a small valley? He is just a gangster. However, it cannot be denied that this guy can be regarded as a tyrant in the village.
Li Fanding didn't like to see Chen Taizhong very much. Of course, he could only keep this kind of dislike in his heart. In any case, these were cadres sent by the superiors to take temporary posts for training. Although they were just deputy, by the time he soared into the sky,
, if he wanted to flatter him again, it would be too late.
There are no secrets in the officialdom. Village Chief Li received all the information about Deputy Village Chief Chen almost at the same time that he arrived. Like others, he could not understand the origin of the deputy village chief. In a small bourgeois family,
A civil servant who graduated from high school actually appeared?
It doesn't matter if you don't understand. As long as this person is harmless, Li Fanding will never provoke him. To say the least, even if this guy doesn't have any support in the officialdom, he is so young. It's hard to say whether he will have a great success in the future.
A day in Longmen.
Chen Taizhong, on the other hand, is famous for not being interested in government affairs. He only likes to chat.
Therefore, the relationship between Village Chief Li and Deputy Village Chief Chen is relatively harmonious. Even when he had the opportunity to eat and drink, he did not forget to say hello to them and let them go together. Anyway, such a luxurious opportunity is not available in this
It's rare in small mountain villages.
For example, right now, the owner of a private cement factory in the upper reaches of Baifeng River came and wanted to invite Village Chief Li to dinner. In addition to the village branch secretary, Li Fanding also called Chen Taizhong.
The owner of the cement factory is not living hard anymore. He wants to come and play in the pile of rocks. Once his factory starts working, he will earn more in one week than Dong Linshui earns in a year. He is here because he has something important to do.
What to do.
The factory is about to be put into operation, but the road has not yet been repaired. There is a section of the road that passes through the land of Donglinshui. The most important thing is that there is also a section of the land that is one of the few arable lands in Donglinshui Village. This work is quite difficult.
made.
Normally, the villagers would block it. In the eyes of the cement factory owner, this blockage is just making things difficult. Of course, no one can grasp the appropriateness here.
Li Fanding knew this matter well. In fact, it definitely happened with his acquiescence. His power in the village can definitely be described as "monstrous". However, if someone is treating someone, why not
Come for a meal?
More importantly, the owner of the cement factory said that the host and guest this time were Zhang Heng and Township Chief Zhang from the township. He could not buy the face of Village Chief Li, but he did not have the guts not to buy the face of Township Chief Zhang.
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, I saw that the mayor has been helping the cement factory owner to talk about it. Village Chief Li understands that this matter has to be done whether he agrees or not.
"Here is a pack of cigarettes and five hundred yuan." The boss saw that the time was ripe and threw out the gift with a smile. He did not mind at all that the mayor was sitting at the table. "The work of the villagers still needs to be done."
It’s up to Village Chief Li to do it.”
"It's a joke," Li Fanding said, his face red and thick-necked after drinking, and he didn't even look at the cigarette or the money. Although he wanted to reach out, he also wanted to save face, didn't he?
He patted his chest and promised, "Leave this matter to me. Since Boss Lu is a friend of Mayor Zhang, is it not a matter of just one sentence?"
At this time, Chen Taizhong, who had been observing their conversation, spoke, "Boss Lu, if your cement plant is put into operation, how much cement can it produce in a year?"
This is a conversation, Chen Taizhong thinks so. He has been observing and studying for a long time, and he is not the protagonist at this table.
