Chapter 33 Going to the grassroots level

When he heard the village chief, the old man's eyes suddenly burst into anger. He said angrily: "Village Chief? The village chief is a wolf. He has been re-elected for eight years. He has done all kinds of evil in these eight years, which has caused the people in our village to live in vain. It really forces us to death." The old man is old, and he has lived enough in his life anyway, and is not afraid of offending some people, so he says whatever he says.

Liu Zhenhua said in confusion: "Since your village chief is harming you, why do you still choose him? This choice will last for eight years?"

The old man said helplessly: "We chose not only the place. We voted just by the formality. As for whoever is the village chief, it is decided by the town."

Liu Zhenhua nodded, but it was not surprising. After all, there are many towns that have such things. Liu Zhenhua asked again: "Does there be many young people in your village go out to work?"

Running the head said bluntly: "More, who will suffer this at home if you can go out? You can save some money when you go out for a few years. If you farm at home and can't even marry a wife, you will be in vain in your life."

Liu Zhenhua asked: "Why, can't farming support a family?"

The old man said: "I used to be, but don't expect it now. Every household has not many lands, but the village chief always raises land taxes. He can't count all kinds of taxes, and some lands are even occupied, so how can he live."

Liu Zhenhua turned his head and looked at Sun Bai, and said a little angry: "Old Sun, are these true?"

Sun Bai did not answer, but nodded helplessly.

Liu Zhenhua turned his eyes and asked the old man again: "What do you mean is that as long as you change your village chief, your village will be better?"

The old man laughed, laughing very vicissitudes: "It's useless to change the village chief. If you change this village chief today, the town government will send a new village chief tomorrow, and designate it to be darker than the original village chief."

After hearing what the old man said, Liu Zhenhua understood that the main problem of this town lies in the town government, and his primary problem was to eliminate the corruption of the town government. Although it was impossible to completely eliminate it, at least they could not be so blatant.

After thanking the old man, Liu Zhenhua took Sun Bai out, and Sun Bai asked, "Do you need to go to another village to see?"

Liu Zhenhua shook his head: "No need, all villages have the same virtue. It's useless to see too much. It's better to solve the problem fundamentally." Before Liu Zhenhua came, he just felt that Wubei Town was at most a "problem town", with a few economic backwardness and social problems. However, when he arrived, he found that the problems here had long been deeply rooted, especially corruption, which made Wubei Town terminally ill. If it really solves it, it would be difficult to climb the sky.

Just when Liu Zhenhua was frowning, Heshen reminded: "Since the grassroots level has been completed and has a preliminary understanding of people's livelihood, then the next step should be to benefit the people."

Liu Zhenhua was a little irritable because of the facts: "How to benefit the people? How to benefit the people? Don't look at me now, but I have subordinates who cannot get up early without profit. It is difficult to benefit the people than to climb the sky."

Heshen smiled and said, "Why? Such a problem makes you stumped? Do you think it's so easy for officials in the world? Being an official is difficult, especially parents and officials. Every problem can make you have a headache for a while for food, clothing, housing, transportation, food, clothing, and warmth. If you want to solve it completely, it will not be a matter of a day or a night. Since you have understood the general structure of Wubei Town, let's go back to the starting point now and start building roads."

Liu Zhenhua frowned: "It's simple to build a road. I just need Qiu Hong to bring people here. Anyway, it's his old job. But Wubei Town is so poor, even if the road is built, what's the use?"

Heshen said: "You can't just look at one side in everything. You need to change multiple angles and make a comprehensive observation. If you repair the road, it seems to be just a road, but the meaning contained in it is not as simple as a road. To put it simply, what does it take to build a road?"

"Human power, financial power."

Heshen affirmed: "That's right, manpower and financial resources are needed. At most, the people brought by Qiu Hong are considered as management class. Those who really build roads still need to find workers. When looking for workers, you can use materials locally to let some local people who have nothing to do. If farmers become workers, you have to pay them wages. Not only do they get wages, but they will also get benefits from roads in the future. To a certain extent, no matter whether it is building roads or what they do, as long as the people can participate, it can be said to stimulate the local economy."

Liu Zhenhua nodded and asked again: "Manpower has solved it, what about other problems? For example, the subsidies for land occupation and the funds for road construction. I don't have any hope for the local finances, and I'm afraid I'll have been scrambled by the mayor who served as the mayor."

Heshen showed a hint of brightness in his calmness, and he smiled and said, "You can only rely on yourself. After all, you are the mayor now. You need to come forward to get local infrastructure funds."

Liu Zhenhua, who was aimless at the beginning, finally found a goal in Heshen's tips. He set two short-term itineraries for himself. The first was to strive for basic funds, and the second was to repair the road. With the goal, he became motivated. Liu Zhenhua took Sun Bai back to the town government quickly, then explained the problem to the local section chief in charge of finance, and then set a funding target of five million for the finance supervisor. Because considering that the finance supervisor was likely to be a former mayor's party member, for the sake of security, Liu Zhenhua was careful and handed over the contact funds to the finance supervisor. Liu Zhenhua personally took the initiative to discuss the funds.

After discussing with the financial supervisor, Liu Zhenhua called Qiu Hong directly and asked him to bring people over. Qiu Hong was doing things neatly. Not long after the call was made, he brought the engineering team and brought a lot of professional equipment, all piled up in the municipal government compound, making everyone around him think that the town government was going to make a big noise, and that was the case.

After Qiu Hong came, Liu Zhenhua asked him to make it convenient for himself, and then asked Sun Bai to contact the local rural contractor team, while he himself sat in the office to plan the next plan.

Time passed quickly. Three days passed in a blink of an eye. Sun Bai contacted the contract team. There were four in total, and there were sixty people. Liu Zhenhua personally met them and explained the details of the road construction. During the explanation, Liu Zhenhua found that they seemed to have no interest in the mayor, or had no good feelings for them. Perhaps in their eyes, the world was as dark as a crow, and Liu Zhenhua didn't care. After a brief explanation, Liu Zhenhua asked Qiu Hong to take them away.

There is a clear idea of ​​the construction funds. According to the original words of the finance supervisor, the municipal government was short of funds and failed to pass the five million yuan, so it could only give 4.3 million yuan at most. Liu Zhenhua didn't worry too much about this matter. Four million yuan is about 4.3 million yuan, which is better than nothing. Liu Zhenhua first went to the city in person to get the funds done, and then brought the money back with the money, and directly asked Qiu Hong to find several villages in the highway planning to discuss.

Since the road is built on the original dirt road, it only occupied the few land on both sides of the dirt road, and the land subsidy required for compensation was not much, and the total amount of one million can be settled. If the mayor's style of the previous town, it would cost one million to occupy the land, and he would give up to 200,000, but Liu Zhenhua used funds higher than the national standard to subsidize. At first, the people who occupied the land thought they had heard it wrong. When it was confirmed that it was true, they signed an agreement without saying a word, and the matter was handled very quickly.

After everything was agreed, Liu Zhenhua asked Qiu Hong to take the engineering team to the roadbed. After he shoveled the first shovel of soil, the project was officially started. However, new problems also arise. According to Qiu Hong's reaction, the local contractor team was extremely efficient and was simply a waste of life. Later, after Liu Zhenhua's secret investigation, he learned that there was a village tyrant in the local area who used methods to buy a nearby mountain at an extremely low price. This mountain was originally used to open a barren mountain and farm. Many people rely on this mountain as food rations. Now that this mountain is gone, many people are worried about life, so they naturally have no mood to work.

After learning the reason, Liu Zhenhua first comforted the contracting team, then contacted Sun Bai and asked Sun Bai to take several police officers with good relationships in the bureau, drove a slightly dilapidated police car and headed to the scene. After arriving at the destination, Li Zhenhua found that the mountain where the land was originally opened and farmed had already begun to plant saplings. A colleague of Sun Bai said that the other party was planning to circle the mountains and raise pheasants, and the saplings were only an extra benefit.

After Liu Zhenhua got to know him, he directly found the village tyrant who was "the mountain is king". Looking at the village tyrant who was nearly one head shorter than him and was dark and strong, Liu Zhenhua asked in a condescending tone: "You forced to buy this mountain? What's your name?"

The village tyrant heard that a new mayor came to the town, and his style of service was very different from that of ordinary officials. At this time, the mayor came to visit in person, and he was still a little nervous: "My name is Gao Guoxi. I bought this mountain, but I paid for it and the procedures were completed."

Liu Zhenhua's eyes slammed and glared at him, "Of course I know you gave me money, so what do you mean by saying this? I just want to ask you, do you know that this mountain is a barren mountain in several nearby villages? It is a food ration land? Many people are pointing to this mountain to live."

Although Gao Guoxi was domineering, he was a person who was afraid of trouble at heart. Facing Liu Zhenhua's questioning, he said a little terrified: "I...I know, but...but I have paid the money. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. It's not my business."

In accordance with Liu Zhenhua's previous style, he had already cursed, but due to his current identity, he could only suppress his anger and said angrily: "Give me money? That's fine!" As he said that, Liu Zhenhua took a document from Sun Bai's hand, and opened it, and said quietly: "This mountain was reclaimed ten years ago. At that time, the town government classified the mountain as a barren mountain, which was owned by local residents. Since the farmland is now protected and there are no special circumstances, it is prohibited to use the farmland in other forms. Now you treat the farmland as a chicken farm. Is it a violation of the law?"
