Volume Eight, Liaoko River, Tian Wanli Frost, Section 24, Fucheng
Futou County is somewhat similar to Shuangfeng in terms of administrative divisions. It also has six districts. However, Futou County has six districts and 29 towns. It is relatively even. In addition to Fucheng District where the county seat is located, there are also Botou and Baokou.
, Niu Shou, Kuishan, Qingjian five
District, with a population of 720,000, Fucheng District has the largest population. Although there are only four towns, it has a population of 160,000. Among them, Fucheng Town, also known as Chengguan Town, has a population of more than 70,000, which is the largest in the entire Fengzhou area.
A famously populated town.
Among the six districts, except for Fucheng District, Botou and Baokou have relatively good economies, but this is only relative. Qingjian is located in the south of Futou, along the Fushuang Highway, and is adjacent to Fengchao District in Shuangfeng.
It is adjacent to Kuishan, while Kuishan is located in the northwest and is mainly mountainous.
Except for Kuishan, Botou, Baokou, Niu Shou and Qingjian are all on national or provincial highways. Baokou is on the national highway from Futou to Liyang, while Niu Shou is on the provincial highway between Futou and Fengzhou.
The situation of Qingjian was originally similar to that of Kuishan, but once the Fushuang Highway is completed, Qingjian will completely get rid of its original traffic inconvenience. Kuishan is located in the northwest, bordering Linxi County of Yishan City, but Futou
The road to Linxi has not been repaired, and the third-class highway from Futou to Kuishan stops abruptly when it reaches Deneng Township at the northwest end of Kuishan.
The most economically backward areas in the county are Qingjian District and Kuishan District, and the biggest bottleneck restricting their economic development is road traffic problems. Of course, once the Fushuang Highway is completed, the ropes that restrict the development of several towns in Qingjian will be opened.
, Qingjian will usher in a period of development, but Kuishan is still a dead end.
Lu Weimin stood in front of the desk and carefully looked at the map of Futou County.
The geographical situation of Futou County is like an irregular cattail leaf fan. Botou is the handle of the cattail leaf fan, while Fucheng is the joint between the fan blade and the handle. Kuishan, Baokou, Niu Shou and Qingjian are the joints.
Several supporting parts of the fan blade.
There is no doubt that Fucheng is the core of the entire Futou. Its central location is almost exactly at the radiating connection point of several other districts, and the good traffic conditions also make Fucheng located in the center of the transportation radiation network. In addition to Fucheng
, it belongs to Botou
The best geographical location is not only on National Highway 331, but also on the main road from Futou to Changzhou. The flat terrain, fertile land, and good water conservancy conditions make Botou famous in history.
River port pier.
Although affected by the impact of modern land transportation, the river port terminal in Botou can still berth ships of 300 tons, and the tug fleet still plays a considerable role in Botou, Fucheng and Fengzhou, especially the scenery on the river.
It has a unique style and adds a bit of ancient charm to Botou.
Different from the plain water town scenery of Botou, Baokou has the momentum of a pass, as it is an important pass going down from north to south. It has been a choke point for north-south transportation since ancient times. Starting from the Jin Dynasty, it was here to block the north.
It was an important military station for the Hu people who marched south, with numerous towers and long city walls. However, its military status declined rapidly after entering modern times, but many of its military buildings preserved from past dynasties still exist, which is quite interesting.
The situation of Niu Shou is different from that of Botou and Baokou. Niu Shou Mountain is also known as Niu Tou Mountain. It is said that the ancient god and demon Niu Demon King was beheaded for violating the laws of heaven. As a result, the cow's head fell to the ground, and the Niu Demon King gave birth to another one, which was beheaded seventy-two times.
, seventy-two heads fell and turned into
Seventy-two continuous mounds, shaded by trees, with gurgling streams and gentle valleys. The first head is particularly large. It is called Niutoushan, and there is the famous Niuwang Temple on the mountain. Beheading platform, cattle lice
Cave, Niuweifeng, the scenery is beautiful and fascinating.
Compared with the districts where these four ancient towns are located, Qingjian and Kuishan are more administrative areas evolved due to geographical location and traffic conditions. Kuishan is located due north and west and is a typical hilly area. In addition to being close to Fucheng
Except for Kuiping Township, which has a gentle terrain, the other four towns are all hilly areas with inconvenient transportation, but here is a shortcut to Yishan.
From Fucheng, go through Kuiping and Kuishan to Randengchuang Mountain. After leaving Futou County, you enter Linxi County. The terrain of Linxi suddenly becomes gentle. It is only 28 kilometers from Randeng Township to Linxi County, and Linxi
It’s only 46 kilometers to Yishan, that is to say, take this route from Futou to Yishan City.
The route is only more than 80 kilometers, but if you take a detour from Futou to Luoqiu, and then from Luoqiu to Yishan via Yifeng, the distance is more than 150 kilometers. In other words, if you take the Kuishan road, it will be smooth.
Then the distance from Changzhou in the southeast of Changzhou to Yishan in the north of Chang will be shortened by nearly 70 kilometers.
Lu Weimin looked at the map and thought about it.
Futou's transportation advantage is indeed better than that of Shuangfeng. Except for Kuishan, several other districts have national or provincial trunk lines passing through it, so there is basically no traffic bottleneck. Although Kuishan is currently a dead spot, once
When we are able to break the bottleneck from Kuishan to Linxi, this area will immediately become a traffic chokepoint, and the entire Changdongnan area and Changbei area will use this shortcut to communicate.
Of course, getting through this bottleneck is also a huge challenge. Lu Weimin doesn't think he can get a large sum of money from the Ministry of Transportation with the help of Duan Zijun to build the Fulin Highway.
For Futou, the greater advantage lies in its extremely profound cultural heritage. Before the Ming Dynasty, Fucheng Town was known as the first town in the southeast of Changchang. Its prosperity was equivalent to Fengzhou in modern times. Especially in the Northern Song Dynasty, it was Huashigang and Caoliang.
It was an important transshipment town until the middle of the Ming Dynasty.
Later, Fucheng Town was gradually replaced by Fengzhou, but Fucheng still maintained a very solid heritage, especially its unique cultural heritage that allowed the literary style to flourish here. In addition, the old town residences that have been maintained intact for hundreds of years have made this place always a place for literati.
The place where poets reside.
Although under the impact of the rapid development of modern social economy, the ancient literary style here seems a bit out of date, and the backward economy has also made people here increasingly feel the impact of material life and modern trends, but in Lu Weimin's view, that is also
Because the superior cultural and historical resources here have not been fully explored and have not been successfully integrated with modern commercial society, once a suitable path can be found to integrate them skillfully, then this place will surely shine with amazing brilliance.
After covering his head and thinking for a long time, Lu Weimin felt that his mood seemed to feel much better, so he called Shi Desheng and He Mingkun over and planned to drive out for a spin.
Fucheng Town is built next to the river in Henan, and the north bank of the river is the territory of Meiwu Town. This is also the only unique phenomenon that there are two towns in the district. Although Meiwu Town is not as famous as Fucheng Town, it is famous for its plum groves along the river.
Wu Town was also built near the river, but on the Fu River
Three kilometers upstream on the north bank, the scale is far smaller than that of Fucheng Town. The Fu River Bridge spanning the north and south of the Fu River connects Meiwu Town and Fucheng Town, but the connection between the two towns is not close. The west end of Fucheng Town passes through
The Fu River Bridge can connect to the end of the east end of Meiwu Town.
Lu Weimin originally didn't want to continue borrowing this Mitsubishi, but the shabby reality in Futou forced him to consider that if he returned the car, it meant that Guan Heng and Qiao Xiaoyang would have no cars available, and had to contact the organization department. , the Propaganda Department and the Political and Legal Committee were crowded with the Cherokee, so he could only choose to surrender to reality. Besides, Radar didn't care about this car at all. In Radar's mind, a Mitsubishi was really not worth mentioning. He even It is suggested that Lu Weimin does not need to change to a more comfortable and luxurious Land Cruiser, or to buy a Land Rover, which is rare in China.
Of course, this suggestion was rejected by Lu Weimin without hesitation. He was a cadre of the Communist Party, not a private enterprise owner. If he was high-profile in this regard, he would only make himself uncomfortable.
Mitsubishi slowly drove out along the old street of Fucheng. The streets of Fucheng always seemed to be crowded with people. This was significantly different from Shuangfeng. The business atmosphere here was much richer than that of Shuangfeng, especially The unique cultural atmosphere is particularly eye-catching in the town, such as the bird market and food stalls outside Dongyue Temple, the antiques, calligraphy and painting market in Agate Lane, and the famous Three Shops on Linhe Street, and the storytelling at Lin’s Shop. Zhang Jia Pu's Allegro and Li Jia Pu's Chang opera are both famous and attract countless people to drink tea and comment here every day.
Even through the car window, Lu Weimin could still feel the excitement coming from the street, but he could also feel the obvious gap between them and the urban population from their clothing.
This is a county that is not rich but quite lively, and the migrant population from surrounding counties and cities also accounts for a certain proportion. Compared with counties such as Shuangfeng and Nantan, the active commercial atmosphere here makes people feel more like a market economy. pulse beat.
He Mingkun noticed the satisfied expression on Lu Weimin's face, which surprised him. The boss rarely had such an expression. Although the strong county atmosphere outside was lively, the boss was not an unseen person. , even in a city like Changzhou, it would be difficult for him to have such an expression.
Mitsubishi finally drove out of the old street and onto the national highway, and then stopped on the Fuhe Bridge as Lu Weimin wanted.
The Fu River originates from the mountainous area in the north of Linxi. After entering Linxi, the water volume increases. It passes through the Kuishan Mountains and becomes turbulent. The water volume continues to increase. After entering Botou, the water volume becomes gentle due to the terrain. , and then went all the way east to form a huge lake and swamp near Meiwu, and then continued to the southeast until Fengzhou merged with the Dongfeng River and Xifeng River to form the Fengjiang River and became the Dafeng River.
Standing on the bridge, Lu Weimin could just overlook Meiwu Town a few kilometers away to the west, and also see Futiandang formed in the upper reaches of the Fu River, which is also an extremely important natural water regulating valve on the Fu River.
