I am a small factory doctor re-walking my life.

Chapter 383 Poverty Alleviation
Li Tang, who was walking in front, turned his head and glanced at the reporter not far away, and shook his head slightly helplessly.

"Old Tao, why can't you tell the truth when you ask me to come over? You are still a teacher and you are actually deceiving people."

"There is nothing I can do, my Mr. Li." Professor Tao explained with a smile: "The leaders of the county have repeatedly asked me to invite you here. The leaders of the provincial propaganda department also asked me to find a way to invite you. Come over and cooperate with us in recording some material. We will have a lot of time together. I know your temper. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to come."

"What material do the provincial station reporters want to record?"

"It seems to be some kind of poverty alleviation. Our planting bases are all in the mountains, and we also helped build the roads leading to the outside of the mountains. Isn't it the best poverty alleviation?"

Professor Tao is very satisfied with his current job. He wants to be famous and profitable. He doesn't have to worry about research funding when he is doing his own research. It's so satisfying.

For a professor, what could make him feel more comfortable than applying what he has learned and using what he has learned to help farmers get rid of poverty.

Li Tang turned around and looked around. When he chose the planting base, he deliberately avoided those fertile fields and specifically chose those in the mountains because the life of the mountain people in the mountains was really hard, and the land was divided inconsistently in the east and west. Some places don't get enough sunlight for a short time. It's mid-August right now, which is the hot season. It feels so cold when you walk here. The annual grain harvest is really a drop in the bucket for them, let alone the need for food. Pay food.

Let Professor Tao choose some herbs suitable for planting here and teach these mountain people planting techniques. Every year, people from Qinshan Pharmaceutical will come to collect them. It is up to them to choose whether they want food or money. For these mountain people, It's really a very good thing.

In addition, in order to facilitate the purchase, the roads were rebuilt to make it easier for them to enter and exit the mountain. The mountain goods they hunted on weekdays were also convenient for them to sell. This was another source of income. These mountain people, including the county to which they belonged, were very important to them. The pharmaceutical company is really grateful. It will be convenient for the mountain people. The county can worry less about this and invest limited financial funds in other places.

After all, leading people out of poverty is also an important assessment indicator for local leaders every year.

When setting up these Chinese herbal medicine planting bases, Li Tang's only request was that as long as the farmers cooperated with the company, the herbs grown must be ones that can be used as medicine in one year, because they should be available to the people every year. When you get money, you need to let them know that growing this is indeed more profitable than growing food, so that they will follow you wholeheartedly.

And if it is a base where the company contracts the land itself and hires local people to plant it, and they receive fixed wages, then it doesn't matter. It can take several years, or even ten years, for the herbs to be grown to be used as medicine, because the company can afford to wait and invest. rise.

You try asking the common people to grow this on their own land. It will take several years to see the benefits. It will be strange if they don't spit in your face.

It should be said that there is no local leader in the Qinshan area, or the entire Qin Province, who doesn't want Li Tang to go and take a look, because this guy is really investing money, donating money to help build roads for free, and showing up in the name of the company. Contract land, build a base, and then hire local farmers to help plant.

Not to mention that he also put a sum of money in the Provincial Department of Education. This money is only used to provide subsidies to teachers who are willing to teach in remote rural areas. It is 50 yuan per month. This money is available regardless of whether the teacher is established or not. , to be honest, the monthly salary of those unestablished private teachers is not that high, not to mention that the salary is often not received.

Li Tang also made a single request for this money, which was that the county-level education department must personally distribute it to every teacher who is qualified to receive it, and not the local township government, because he did not trust those people.

As long as you teach in remote rural areas, you can receive a monthly subsidy of 50 yuan. This move has really greatly alleviated the problem of lack of teachers in rural schools in the past two years. Don’t underestimate this fifty yuan. Living in rural areas, A family of four or five can't spend all the money, and they can buy a TV after saving for a year.There is also a reason why the leaders of this county want Li Tang to come over. Farmers in the mountains have planted herbal medicine on their land, and their income has increased visibly in the past two years. Farmers near the town are unwilling, and the village chiefs of several villages have joined forces. They got up and found the town and then the county. They wanted to contract their land directly to the pharmaceutical company, and then the villagers accepted employment and worked for the pharmaceutical company. They also wanted to enjoy the treatment of workers.

It doesn’t matter if there are two villages in one village, but what about eight villages in ten villages?With tens of thousands of villagers in total, these leaders are also worried that if something happens, they will be in trouble.

Looking at Li Tang sitting on the ground chatting with county leaders about official matters, Song Xiaohui curled her lips. She didn't like looking at her husband when he was talking to government officials. She felt like there was a hypocritical air all over her body.

But she also understood that her man had to do this as a last resort. Look at the ages of the people around him. Even the county director or the leaders’ secretaries looked older than him. Those leaders were all old men. He It's impossible not to show that fake smile like that.

She was not qualified at all as a secretary today, and she didn't even think about approaching. She didn't care whether the leader she needed to serve today would have something to do soon. After looking around in circles, she slipped out of the crowd alone. I ran to the side to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the mountains.

Pang Hu, who was following her over there, saw her walking away alone. He glanced at Li Tang, and after confirming that nothing would happen for the time being, he followed her from a distance. After all, this was in the mountains, a place of life. raw.

Song Xiaohui ran to the other side alone, squatting by the ground and looking at the planted herbs. Just as she was about to reach out and touch them, she was frightened by a sound and quickly retracted her hand.

"Professor Song..."

"Huh?" After being called out, Song Xiaohui quickly stood up. When she turned around, she realized that the person calling her was a reporter who had come with her today, and there was a camera hanging around her neck.

"you know me?"

"I was also an on-site reporter at the last economic work conference held in the province, and I had the honor to meet you, Professor Song."

"Oh, let me tell you, don't say Professor Song. It sounds weird. Just call me Teacher Song."

"Uh... Okay, Teacher Song, please ask, I heard that the university in the United States invited you to attend the economic forum this year. Why did you refuse this year?"

"I go there every year, but this year I'm a little bored, so I just want to take advantage of my vacation to have a good rest at home."
