At eleven o'clock sharp, the field survey ended. The group came to Shilei Village and held a meeting in the village committee's conference room. Naturally, the mine bosses were not qualified to participate in the meeting. They were all personnel from the township government, police station and village committee. The police station was responsible for the mines and

The township head investigated the control of explosives, detonators and other controlled items in quarries, and they also sent people to participate.

The meeting had three agendas. First, Huang Changhe, director of the village committee, reported on the development of the mining industry in Shilei Village.

His speech was relatively objective, affirming that mining has brought considerable economic benefits to the village. The villagers have stable jobs and sources of income. Every household has built a new house, and many families have even bought cars.

But there are many problems. The village's drinking water source is polluted, the geological stability is destroyed, floods, landslides or mudslides and other disasters occur almost every time it rains heavily. The mountains are loose, the ground is subsided, and the water storage capacity of vegetation is weakened. These two factors

In 2017, cases of pneumoconiosis, leukemia and other cancers appeared in villagers one after another. He suspected that it was related to air and water pollution.

Huang Changhe's bigger question is, if the mineral resources are collected, what will be the next step for the village committee's development?

He did not say he was against mining, he only raised the question that it is up to the party committee and government to decide how to develop and where to go.

Huang Changhe is in his forties, dark, lean, serious, and meticulous. It is obvious that he is a knowledgeable and educated village committee director. Ma Ming quite approves of him.

However, Jian Yao's face turned darker than before, and he seemed a little unhappy with Huang Changhe's speech.

The second agenda item was Jiang Jihong's report on the overall situation of the mining industry in the jurisdiction, outstanding contributions, existing problems and shortcomings, and next steps. He spoke in a low voice, and the content was smooth and commonplace. He avoided the important and neglected the important, talking about economic contribution and not about ecological development.

Ma Ming knew that the manuscript in his hand had been used for many years, and he only changed the title on the header and the data in the text every time he reported it.

Finally, Jian Yao spoke.

Ma Ming opened his notebook, picked up his pen, listened carefully and took notes.

Mayor Jian Yao first gave a brief overview of the research activities, affirming the current booming development momentum of the mining industry and its significant contribution to the county's GDP, and also pointed out the problems of extensive decentralization and ecological environment problems in the current development.

Finally, he concluded: "Let me tell you the truth. The county government sent me from the Industry and Information Technology Bureau to promote the further development of the township economy. Before taking office yesterday, the county magistrate told me that the two major engines of the county's economy are

, one is the seafood and jewelry of Huayuan Township, and the other is our minerals in the north. They need two-wheel drive to compete with each other.

The county magistrate specifically pointed out that, especially our minerals, we must make a significant contribution to Feng County's departure from the city's GDP this year. The county magistrate has given a death order, comrades, and I came with a military order, comrades! If

This year our county failed to take off the hat, and all the cadres in the county government can't live without it!" Speaking of the emotional point, Jian Yao tapped the stone table with his middle finger.

Ma Ming felt his fingers hurt for him, but was not infected by his passion. At the same time, his heart moved slightly. Jian Yao did not say "the organization sent me, or the county committee and county government sent me", but "the county government", no.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but it was revealed that he was the county magistrate's man, and it was the county magistrate who promoted him, and he didn't even have the county party committee leaders in his eyes.

Ma Ming thought again, and there is nothing wrong with this. County Magistrate Zhang Meng has been working in Fengxian County for many years. He has a tough style, focuses on the economy, and has outstanding work ability. He has raised Fengxian's economy from the last place for many years to the third and fourth place. It is really not easy.

.At the same time, he has wide connections and a high status in the world, and many cadres have been favored by him.

In fact, Ma Ming didn't know that Jian Yao had been Zhang Meng's secretary when he was the executive deputy county magistrate, and was a direct descendant of the county magistrate.

Jian Yao picked up the white porcelain tea cup, took a sip of tea, and continued: "The city conducts assessments on each district and county, and the county assesses each township. Our Baoshan Township is famous for its thousand-year-old reputation among the ten townships and three towns in Feng County.

, the economic ranking has been suppressed by Huayuan Township and has never reached the top. If in the next work, we blindly shut down, use the bottom of the cauldron to draw salary, and cut off our arms to seek development and ecology, I think we will soon be

If we can't even keep the second place, we can't explain it to the county government. If Feng County cannot get out of third place in the economic ranking at the end of the year, we will be held accountable.

Therefore, safety management must be well understood, and development must have breakthroughs. We cannot adopt a one-size-fits-all policy. I think the policy of closing down mines and stone quarries must be paused first, conduct in-depth research and demonstration, and on this basis, explore a way

A new way to both ensure security and promote development.”

Ma Ming was startled secretly, and after talking for a long time, the township chief meant not to shut down or eliminate, but to continue focusing on the stone mining industry. What he said yesterday about Xiao Gui and Cao Sui was all lies, and basically negated the original township chief's policy agenda.

However, if you think about it carefully, during the three years that Mayor Yuelang has been here, he has called for closure every day, but in fact he has not actually closed down or eliminated any company, especially the Meiguang quarry. The documents have been out for a month, and now,

There is still no closure in the strict sense. There are more stone quarries in the east area, and I haven't heard of any closure.

"Ma Ming, and the comrades from the Party and Government Office, you are young, have ideas, and are motivated. You are also rising stars who graduated from prestigious schools. I leave the task of exploring new ways and writing new plans to you." Jian Yao looked at Ma Minghe.

Chen Lijuan's eyes were full of expectation, which of course completely rejected the policy of shutting down and eliminating.

Isn’t this a typical example of “when leaders change, policies change”?

Ma Ming was a little confused by the leader and felt that this was wrong, so he frowned and shook his head slightly unconsciously.

Jian Yao noticed his expression keenly, stared at Ma Ming and said, "Comrade Xiao Ma, do you have any objections?"

Ma Ming was called out, and it was impossible to remain silent, so he should use his deafening voice of opposition.

He cleared his throat and said: "Township Chief, I have no objection to exploring new ways to protect safety and promote development, and I have no objection to us drafting it. However, I feel that although development is urgent, safety and environmental protection work is even more urgent."

Jiang Jihong winked at him, meaning not to talk nonsense. Chen Lijuan blinked at him, feeling anxious for him.

Jian Yao stared at Ma Ming sharply and said, "Really?"

This tone actually showed that he didn't want Ma Ming to continue talking. The veteran officials in the officialdom would definitely stop talking when they saw this.

Ma Ming, on the other hand, has a straightforward temper. A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. He doesn't care whether the leader is happy or not. He said loudly: "Head of the township, currently, the mines in the western area have 'a wall, numerous pit mouths, messy waste rocks, and damaged ground surfaces.' And the mining process

Prominent problems such as "poor environment, low standards, extensive management, and picky", safety accidents, and water resource pollution are even more shocking. It is also over-exploited, advanced developed, and developed without regard for the consequences. It sounds like a development that "cuts off future generations."

For larger and more standardized mines and quarries, I suggest that they be integrated and upgraded as soon as possible and not be too scattered; for those small workshops, low-end mines and quarries that do not implement safety and environmental protection measures, we can only close the Huashan Road

, because they have no money, no conditions, and no concept to upgrade and transform, and even if they upgrade, the gains outweigh the losses, they are born with deficiencies. In addition, there are illegal and illegal mining, which are even more destructive."
