Chapter 14 Yang Zai Xin Enters the Village

The fork in the village is a sand and gravel road ten kilometers away from Shuanggou Village. Transport trucks are barely accessible, and small cars and other vehicles can access a few miles away from the front of the village. Motorcycles can enter the village.

At least, the mountain road is curved and steep, and the road surface is bumpy. Without certain driving skills, it is difficult to walk safely. Before Yang Zaixin went to Shuanggou Village, he would stop at the foot of the mountain and then accompany his leader to climb the hill. He could walk along the slopes of the mountain road or along the newly built gravel road.

This time I came to Shuanggou Village is different from any previous time. To put it bluntly, I came to the village to help the poor, but in fact I was sent to this most remote corner by Minghua and others. Yang Zaixin didn't care much about this.

Last night, Li Zhu's performance and attitude at home made him feel premonition and mentally prepared for what changes his life would have. As long as he could not return to the county town in three months, Li Zhu would probably propose to live separately. This has been a sign of this long ago and is not difficult to accept. Perhaps, he chose to start a family with Li Zhu because his parents talked too much about it.

If there is no deep feelings between you and Li Zhu, it does not exist. The most important thing about living together is to live. Nowadays, how many marriages are truly affectionate and deeply loved each other?

Before, every time I came to Shuanggou Village, I had a car and someone came with me. This time, I took a bus from Baozhai Town to the town, and then I could only walk. There were also cars in the town that could be taken to the foot of Shuanggou Village. Yang Zaixin felt that it was unnecessary today, so I didn’t hurry. I walked around and became familiar with it. I could also see more things I didn’t see normally.

Village cadres must live in the village department, and the living equipment in the village is provided. This was distributed at the county poverty alleviation work conference three years ago. At that time, Yang Zaixin was still a teacher. He had heard of this and discussed it with his colleagues. Then, he went to Zhang Tongjun as a secretary and heard more people talk about this measure. For poverty alleviation cadres, it is better to provide some daily necessities than to bring them to themselves. In addition, if they live in a village or farmer's home for many years, it will also affect their lives.

Walking along the simple road, to the foot of the mountain, there are actually six or seven miles away from the village. There are still five or six kilometers around the road, and the mountain road is closer, but the steep and difficult to walk on. Yang Zaixin has been following Zhang Tongjun in recent years and has less physical exercise and his physical fitness is indeed weak. However, when he left the county town, he decided to make good use of this period of time to exercise in the village and restore his physical fitness to a good state.

Only with a good physique can one better deal with the changes in one's future.

When I climbed the mountain, less than a hundred meters away, the sweat was soaked again. The water brought from the town had been drunk and sweating was raining. Although there were woods on both sides of the mountain road, these were all mixed trees and had little economic value. Occasionally, there were some shade on the road, so sit down and rest to look at the mountains a little further away.

I was also wondering, where should a village like Shuanggou Village take to help poverty alleviation?

The main factors of poverty in mountain villages are nothing more than these: lack of funds, lack of technology, lack of labor, poor due to illness, disabled people in the family, lack of land, lack of projects, etc. It seems to be more high-end. In summary, there are thousands of factors in each family's poverty, but the result is the same: poor.

Of course, there are also very rare poor people who are lazy and unwilling to do things. Yang Zaixin has heard some examples of such strangeness before, and township cadres and some county cadres have also said about it.

Shuanggou Village is remote, with closed traffic, and has no unique advantages in resources. In terms of agricultural planting, Shuanggou Village is not backward compared to other villages in the county. However, there are few farmlands that can be cultivated and the per capita rice field area is relatively low. Mountain planting can indeed be opened up, but at present, the main laborers in the village go out to work, and some mountainous land and far-reaching farmland are abandoned.

Not only is it difficult to go deeper into the poverty alleviation work in Shuanggou Village and find practical solutions, but most of the poverty alleviation work in other townships and villages in the county is the same. The work is carried out through procedures and the results are left to fate. The superiors check information and conduct discipline checks. As for whether the difficulties in the village can be truly solved, sometimes it is not something that changes can do.

Of course, with the advancement of poverty alleviation work and the introduction of many national policies, it still brings a lot of benefits to the village. For example, land farming compensation, forest compensation, compensation after breeding into a certain amount, pensions for elderly people over 60 years old, and minimum living allowances for lost labor, etc., can greatly change the living conditions of these people.

In rural areas, the monthly pension of 103 yuan is indeed very small, but from scratch, 103 yuan can solve the oil, salt, water and electricity costs, and it is very likely that you can go to the market to get a piece of meat. You can grow some basic foods such as grains by yourself, and children and relatives can also give you some living expenses, so you can live a life without any problem.

Yang Zaixin has learned about poverty alleviation before, contacted people from the village, and also contacted cadres who do such work on the front line, and read a lot of reporting materials. But he really has no direct feelings, and his understanding of poverty alleviation is also superficial and information-based.

Now, he can't guarantee what changes will happen and what actions will happen when he comes to Shuanggou Village.

We climbed the hills and walked forward all the way, and we almost reached the top of the mountain. We walked around the hillside and saw Shuanggou Village. Shuanggou Village is in a canyon, and there are deep gorges on both sides of the village. The gorges are said to be dozens of kilometers, extending all the way to other provinces and to the plateau areas.

There are streams in the ditch, with relatively large flow of water and clear water flow. However, these two streams gather in front of the village, then slipped away from another ditch, and did not go towards Baozhai Town, but left Hengzhe County and went to Linshi City.

Looking at the entire Shuanggou Village from this mountain, it is the most standard ancient village. Except for a few newly built cement buildings, the others are old houses of mud bricks.

The light at noon is enough, and you can see the entire village clearly. Yang Zaixin has walked this road before and has seen Shuanggou Village from this perspective, but none of them feel as deep as they are now.

It seems that the village is a ladies from the Ming and Qing dynasties, with beautiful, transparent, and full of agility. The mixed houses were built layer by layer on the mountain, with green tiles connected to each other. Yang Zaixin suddenly thought, would anyone come here to rent some old houses and decorate them for a little decoration as a place to live in seclusion and experience secluded residence?

If the road is not blocked, the villages here will definitely not be preserved like this. It is completely necessary to protect such ancient villages. As for tourism development, the scenery of Shuanggou Village is also very high-quality. At least, planning this place should be a good project.

Can this idea be realized? Yang Zaixin has no confidence. He went down the mountain and went to the village department, but there was no one in the village department. The main treasurys in the village may have gone home, or the main treasurys in the village learned that they were coming to Shuanggou Village and they all hid?

This possibility does not exist. Yang Zaixin smiled bitterly and could only find someone.
