Great changes in the countryside

Chapter 344 A young man with lofty ideals
Chen Yang told Lao Yang in detail about the past few years.

Lao Yang listened very carefully, but he also liked to ask questions. Chen Yang talked for almost an hour, and he asked at least twenty times.

After Chen Yang finished speaking, rice wine and cooked fish and shrimp were brought downstairs.

Chen Yang accompanied Lao Fan and Lao Yang, drinking, eating fish and shrimp, and continuing to chat.

"Xiao Chen, what is the biggest problem you encountered in the process of doing business?"

Facing Lao Yang's question, Chen Yang thought about it first.

"Old Yang, it's still a matter of policy. I think the current policy is not open enough to private enterprises like us."

"Oh, give me an example."

"For example, if I sell the goods to Shanghai, I have to bring the money back. However, only public companies can transfer money through banks, and our private companies can't. So we work very hard, bringing huge amounts every time. When the cash comes back, everyone is worried."

"Well, you continue to give examples."

"For example, the management fees of enterprises are collected by the industrial and commercial departments, and they are charged according to the number of employees. There is no problem with this method, but the fees are too high, so everyone has to lie about it."

"Any more?"

Chen Yang hesitated a little.

Lao Fan encouraged: "It's a rare opportunity today, it's better than complaining and scolding your mother. If you have any ideas, just say them."

Lao Yang also nodded, "Xiao Chen, wait a moment, I'll make a note."

As he said that, Lao Yang took out his pen and notebook, and first wrote down the two things Chen Yang just said in the notebook.

"Xiao Chen, continue talking."

Now Chen Yang is not polite.

He talked endlessly for about 10 minutes, and made a total of 23 "opinions".

After Lao Yang finished memorizing, he put away his pen and closed his notebook, and then picked up his wine glass to drink.

Lao Fan smiled and asked Lao Yang, "Is it right?"

Lao Yang nodded his head and said, "It's the right time, it's the right time. When facing you and me, only Xiao Chen can speak up. It's hard for those of us below to hear the truth."

Chen Yang picked up the wine jar and poured wine for Lao Fan and Lao Yang.

Lao Yang drank a few more sips of wine, ate a few pieces of fish, and praised him loudly. He didn't know whether to praise the wine or the fish.

Lao Fan pointed to Chen Yang and said to Lao Yang, "Lao Yang, I forgot to tell you something. This is a young man with lofty ideals."

"Really? What lofty ideal?"

"Be the village director."

"Well, this ideal is indeed noble and worthy of support."

Lao Fan smiled and said: "It's a pity that two years ago, in the first village committee election, it won more than 90.00% of the votes. Because it failed the political review, it was taken down on the spot."

Chen Yang smiled embarrassedly, "Just laugh, laugh."

Lao Yang asked Lao Fan why he failed the political review.

Lao Fan told about Chen Yang's father.

Lao Yang thought for a while.

"Old Fan, why didn't you get involved in this matter?"

Lao Fan smiled bitterly, "I used to work in Wenlin County, and there was a lot of resistance at that time. To put it bluntly, I have no foundation here, and no one listens to my words."

Lao Yang said: "Political review mainly examines one's own performance. The affairs of Xiao Chen's father are governed by the law. In terms of family background, Grandpa Xiao Chen is still a party member and a regional model worker."

Lao Fan said: "Old Yang, you are right to criticize. To be honest, I had concerns at the time, and my mind was not liberated enough."

Listening to the conversation between Lao Fan and Lao Yang, Chen Yang couldn't help but feel moved.

Of the two in front of me, who is older and who is younger?
At this time, both Lao Fan and Lao Yang saw that Chen Yang was in a daze.

Lao Fan asked, "Xiao Chen, was that newsletter exaggerated?"

Chen Yang shook his head, "That's not true. Those data are basically accurate. Committee member Guo is stationed in our Chenjia Village, and he comes here every few days, so he knows the situation in the village well."

Lao Yang asked: "Then, based on these data, it is inferred that Chenjia Village has been lifted out of poverty. Is this conclusion correct?"

Chen Yang pondered for a moment.

"Two leaders, I also have two data. One is that more than 90.00% of the labor force has something to do, and the other is that more than 80.00% of the people have a job. Based on these two data, of course we can judge that Chenjia Village has been lifted out of poverty. "

Lao Yang immediately asked: "What about the other 20.00% and [-]% of your two figures?"

"Households with five guarantees, households in need, families without strong labor force, families returning to poverty for some reason, etc."

Lao Fan asked, "What do you mean by someone who has returned to poverty for some reason?"

"The main reason is that they return to poverty due to illness. In addition, there are those who fail in business, those who lose money in gambling, those who have no money after building a house, and those who spend a lot of money on marrying a wife, etc."

Lao Fan nodded, "I really haven't thought about that."

"Let me give you an example, Tong Xiaofang, deputy branch secretary. A year ago, his family was at least among the top ten in the village. But because his business failed, he built a new house, and later fell seriously ill, so he is now a poor household. "

Lao Yang also nodded, "Xiao Chen, what do you think is the problem in the village?"

Chen Yang chuckled, "I'm not a village cadre, and if I go on, I'll just meddle in other people's business."

Lao Yang smiled and said, "Say it, tell it, we promise not to say that you meddle in your own business with a mouse."

Lao Fan also signaled Chen Yang to continue talking.

"Now there are two big problems. One is that the village has no money, and the public utilities in the village have been abandoned. There used to be compulsory labor, but now there are things in the village, and no one will do it without paying. With the current economic situation in the village, I don’t know when it will be rebuilt.”

Lao Yang hummed, "Another question?"

"Another problem is what to do with the five-guarantee households and those in need? Together, they account for 20.00% of the village's population. It's not enough to rely on the state, nor can it rely on the village, because the village has no money at all."

Lao Yang asked, "Xiao Chen, do you have a solution?"

Chen Yang shook his head, "I haven't thought of it yet. It's just that at the end of the year, I will take out some money, add pork, and send it door to door."

Lao Yang hurriedly asked, "How long has it been?"

Chen Yang thought for a while, "It's been five years."

Lao Yang repeatedly praised, "It's amazing, it's amazing."

Chen Yang smiled modestly.

Lao Fan kept drinking and eating fish beside him.

"Xiao Chen, there is one thing I don't understand. I heard from your grandfather that your second brother has already started three companies. But you never get involved, and you don't even want shares. Why is that?"

Facing Lao Fan's question, Chen Yang answered after drinking first.

"My second brother is very good. If I partner with him, I will suppress his performance. Besides, he likes to be busy, and I like to be lazy. If we are a partner, there must be conflicts."

Lao Yang said: "Two tigers cannot fit in one mountain."

Chen Yang nodded, "That's what it means. My second brother likes to be on the front line and earn visible money. I'm just the opposite. I can sit but never stand, and I can lie down and never sit. I like to relax Easy money."

At this time, the phone rang.

Chen Yang picked up the phone and heard Tong Siping's anxious voice.

"Chen Yang, is Secretary Fan at your house?"
