super rich

Hearing this, Chen Mingyuan laughed. Although the mountain people were simple and open-minded, this kind of spirit of being content with the status quo is really difficult to agree with.

And the root cause of Lan Tude and the villagers' lack of enthusiasm for progress is due to our village head Zhong who "always needs money".

It is precisely under the guiding principle of the head of Zhong Township to vigorously carry forward the "spirit of begging for alms", Jinxi Township has repeatedly received generous funds from the county and the province, which can ensure that these villagers will not be too poor and poor, and they will always be able to maintain a stable life. A class that can't get enough to eat but can't starve to death.

Every time, Township Chief Zhong can give a list of reasons why the township construction urgently needs funds, the ethnic minorities urgently need poverty alleviation, and the location and transportation improvement of ethnic townships urgently need support according to the policy. As for the development projects given by the government, because he is often busy asking There is no time to take care of it, causing some projects to close down in less than a few months.

A few years ago, the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee headed by Ning Lizhong even approved a hydropower project for Jinxi Township in order to promote the economic development of Minzu Township. It is known that the poor management of local cadres such as the mayor of Zhong Township, or some temporary moth, caused the project to come to an end without a problem.

Of course he was heartbroken, but there was still a way to remedy it, that is, he changed the name of the original project and reported it in the second year, and won more funds by doing so. After five years, he actually ran to more than 600 million yuan. All kinds of support funds can almost create an unprecedented historical record, so it's no wonder that none of the leaders above want to see him.

Therefore, Mayor Zhong's mentality became more and more calm. As for the people in the village, they all knew that he was working hard for everyone's life. No growth, but never had the slightest complaint against him.

As for those poverty alleviation funds, it is rumored that Township Chief Zhong never took a penny more, but some of the funds were turned into wages, some were used to repay the debts owed by the village, and some were used to help those poor households, which is not surprising. This became the reason for him to sit firmly in the mountains. In this ethnic village with simple folk customs, a long-term and stable pattern has gradually formed. Everyone knows that the government will give and the government will help. It has always been peaceful and harmonious, and the poor environment has given birth to a deformed harmony!

Afterwards, Chen Mingyuan didn't say anything more, and after Lan Tude got up to clean up the dishes, Zhu Zhentao chimed in and said, "Secretary Chen, in all fairness, Township Chief Zhong is actually a good person, at least he is upright and considerate of the people. Most of the people are simple and honest, there has never been any petty theft or hooliganism, and the overall trend is still good."

"I admit that he is a good man, but he is not suitable to be a good official."

Chen Mingyuan chuckled softly and said meaningfully: "Teaching a man to fish is worse than giving him a fish. If he doesn't solve the problem from the source, even if he can make alms all over the world, he will drink poison to quench his thirst. In the end, it will be the common people who will suffer!"

…………

In the afternoon of spring dawn, Qingtan Village is immersed in a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, listening quietly, and there are vaguely beautiful folk songs echoing in the slowly swaying bamboo sea.

Chen Mingyuan strolled in the village, looking at the surrounding mountains and bamboo seas, he saw the mountain wind blowing fiercely, and the waves of bamboo branches were undulating in the wind. In this piece of bright and bright universe, it makes people feel happy.

Although he is not satisfied with the development situation of Jinxi Township, Chen Mingyuan still feels comfortable after feeling the simple and kind-hearted kindness of the villagers. Sometimes he even thinks that he wants to change and improve the appearance of this hidden village. , From another point of view, isn't it breaking this peaceful paradise?

Perhaps, the right to choose should be left to the villagers to choose by themselves.

As he walked, he gradually realized that the village was surprisingly lively. Every household was full of joy. Some people were making food and snacks, while others were setting up round tables in the open space in the middle of the village, as if they were preparing for a grand party.

"Tomorrow is the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar, also known as the Wufan Festival, which is a traditional big festival for the She people."

A melodious and melodious voice pierced through the ear holes, and at some point, Ye Qingxue appeared beside her, holding glutinous rice wrapped in Wuren leaves in her hand, and explained softly: "At this time of the year, She people from all over the world will commemorate The national hero Lei Wanxing steamed black rice, and then we had a family meal and held a dance. It was a coincidence that we came, otherwise the meal just now would not have been so rich."

Chen Mingyuan smiled: "Then we really owe the blessing of this national hero."

Ye Qingxue pursed her cherry lips, smiled slightly, and gently raised the corners of her lips with pink, like a finishing touch, outlining that stunning face vividly and beautifully, and seeing her walking under the light and shadow, her body The pure white and soft silk leisure suit contrasted with the green surroundings, which further showed her pure and pure personality.

Chen Mingyuan watched in a daze, and in a trance, a green and graceful figure jumped out in front of his eyes, so familiar.

Seeing him staring blankly at her, Ye Qingxue couldn't help but a breathtaking blush appeared on Xue Ni's cheeks, she lowered her eyes, and said shyly and coquettishly, "What are you looking at!"

Chen Mingyuan shook his head. Suddenly, a strong wind blew past, instantly blowing the bamboo forest all over the mountain. From the bamboo forest in the distance, suddenly there was a wave. It was a whole piece of bamboo being blown down by the strong wind.A moment later, as the wind passed by, the green waves surged in the same direction along the mountain range, just like the huge waves blowing up on the sea, rushing in.At the same time, the sound of countless green bamboos swaying turned into a "cracking" sound, whispering incessantly.

Ye Qingxue was also fascinated by the magnificent sight of heaven and earth. She watched quietly for a while, stroked her black hair, and said softly, "I suddenly remembered what happened three years ago. It's spring...when I was in Lishan."

For a moment, Chen Mingyuan's heart twitched violently. He stopped, turned his head and looked towards the west, and after that, it was Lishan City. Looking back at the past three years ago, Yiren didn't know where he was. Where is it.

When she uttered the heartfelt words that took all her courage to reveal, Ye Qingxue felt her heart was in a mess, her chest was short of breath for a few times, and the delicate pink spots on her ears gradually became thicker. While fisting and silently waiting for a response, in the end, she waited for a sentence that made her whole body icy cold.

"Have you heard about her recently?" Chen Mingyuan's expression remained calm, except for his eyes that dimmed a little.

Ye Qingxue looked at his face, her starry eyes dimmed a little immediately, she gritted her silver teeth to resist the pain in her heart, looked at the toes of her walk, and said calmly: "I haven't contacted her for a while, I don't know... ..." But when I saw his lonely expression, I really couldn't bear it, so I added: "But when I was in the hospital, she contacted me once, and she is still recuperating outside, so we don't have to worry about it."

Chen Mingyuan nodded silently.

Ye Qingxue took a deep breath, pretended to be calm and said, "Have you decided to find her next?"

Chen Mingyuan withdrew his gaze and was about to speak, when suddenly Mu Taotao's disturbing yell came from behind.

"Brother Chen, look who I found!"

Taozi hurriedly jumped behind the two of them, and took advantage of the opportunity to tug at the girl from the She ethnic group next to her.

Chen Mingyuan turned his head and saw that it was Lan Qianyi, the vegetable seller.

"Brother Chen, you, hello!" Lan Qianyi quickly bowed, not knowing whether it was panting or excitement, his face was flushed.

Chen Mingyuan stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile, "I'm here for an outing. Don't make it so formal. The villagers will see me and think I'm here to show off."

Lan Qianyi hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, Big Brother Chen is a good person. I heard just now that you sent a lot of things to everyone, and I praised you for your kindness."

Chen Mingyuan smiled and asked, "How is your mother's condition?"

Lan Qianyi smiled and said, "It's much better. I've taken some medicines these days, and I can go out and walk around."

"It's not enough to just take the medicine. When you are free, take her to the city to see a doctor. If you have any difficulties in this area, you can tell Taozi later." Chen Mingyuan reminded, and glanced at her tanned He sighed and said, "Besides, at the age you are studying, you should go back to school as soon as possible. Only when you acquire knowledge will you have greater ability to improve the situation at home."

Lan Qianyi was suddenly depressed and speechless. Why didn't she want to go back to study, but the predicament at home made her have neither the energy nor the conditions to review these things.

Chen Mingyuan felt a little uncomfortable. Schooling for children here is also a big problem. The nearest primary school is dozens of miles away, and he doesn't know how many mountain roads he has to walk every day. Besides, although the tuition and books are only a few dozen yuan, for the villagers in this mountain village, That being said, it is a huge expense.

At this time, Zhu Zhentao and others also came together, and Chen Mingyuan ordered: "Even if poverty cannot be eliminated temporarily, at least the education of these children in the mountains must be guaranteed. Only by eliminating ignorance and backwardness can poverty be eradicated more effectively."

Zhu Zhentao nodded again and again, and understood that Secretary Chen wanted to build a Hope School nearby. It was not difficult. Even if he did not raise donations from the society and enterprises, it would be more than enough to set aside about 20 yuan from the poverty alleviation funds. If the scale is reduced , tens of thousands of yuan is enough, pondered for a while, and said: "However, the poverty alleviation funds are still managed by the Finance Bureau, and I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble..."

Chen Mingyuan is naturally aware of his little thoughts. Because of the issue of poverty relief funds, he still loves and hates Miao Yu to this day. He waved his hand and said, "It's about the people's livelihood, and County Mayor Huang will understand and support it. Ning's heavy poverty alleviation plan, I will discuss with Mayor Liang later, separate the poverty alleviation work from the county government office and the agricultural office, and set up a poverty alleviation and development office separately, you have a plan in advance."

Zhu Zhentao was overjoyed, if he could set up the Poverty Alleviation Office independently, and then take charge of it by himself, his authority would undoubtedly increase by leaps and bounds. By that time, he would not only be able to get rid of Huang Shishen's constraints, but even step on Miao Yuxi under his feet!
