Winter in the North has always been far more severe than in the Central Plains. It snows heavily all day and all night, and the space between heaven and earth seems to be completely blocked by this vast whiteness.
On the main road leading from Huayuan to Xiaoshan, there is only one new green military jeep, walking through the pure white, which is particularly conspicuous.
"Hey, how do we take this road? Is there a shortcut?"
Seeing that Wei Lan, who was driving in front, did not go to the main road in Xiaoshan, but instead took the road to Jinshan in the neighboring county, Xue Laosan in the back seat finally couldn't help but talk.
It turned out that after being captured by Wei Lan out of temper yesterday, Xue Laosan followed Wei Meiren to Huayuan and slept all night in the guest house. This morning, after participating in a lengthy and uninspiring procrastination meeting,
The two of them ran back directly.
The car is a new one, and it belongs to Wei Meiren. Yesterday, Wei Meiren drove to Fengle Township to look for Xue Laosan. For the time being, he did not return to the county seat, but went directly from Fengle to Huayuan.
At this point, some readers must have asked, in addition to the Armed Forces Department and the Public Security Bureau, there are only two special cars in Xiaoshan. Why does Wei Meiren also have a car?
What I want to say is that today's Xiaoshan is not what it used to be. You must know that Xiaonizi and Charter King's investment, although it was in foreign exchange, was converted into the same amount at a high price due to preferential policies when they arrived in China.
RMB was invested in Xiaoshan, and Xiaoshan earned a huge amount of fiscal revenue by selling land.
At this time, the funds of the Xiaoshan County Finance Bureau can be said to be comparable to those of the Liaodong Provincial Finance Department. Even every day, leaders from the Provincial Finance Department and the Huayuan Finance Bureau come to visit to talk about cooperation, or pretend to be poor.
Fortunately, Xiaoshan County has such a strong secretary as Xue Laosan, so he blocked them one by one.
With more money, Xue Xiangzi will no longer aggrieve these members of the Standing Committee who have worked hard for half his life. If nothing else, he just wants to win people's hearts and work hard to get the blood that needs to be shed.
Just like that, the Xiaoshan County Standing Committee, as well as the No. 1 of the CPPCC and National People's Congress, were all assigned special cars, all of which were brand-new Jeeps!
As soon as this benefit came out, Xue Laosan could be said to win the hearts of all the people, including Deputy County Magistrate Liu Li, who had always regarded Xue Xiang like a tiger. When he saw Xue Laosan recently, he was frightened, but also a little closer to him.
Now that Xiaoshan County is rich, Xue Xiang cannot just pay benefits to the leaders. He must also take care of the cadres below. After all, he is well aware of the principle that rain and dew are equally affected. Otherwise, whether Xiaoshan County pays or not will depend on others.
The treatment of the people below is the same as in the past, which will definitely bring a devastating blow to morale. Therefore, Xue Laosan gave each level of cadres a one-level salary increase, which can be regarded as a widespread favor.
Of course, in addition to taking good care of Xiaoshan County's superstructure and benefiting the people, there are still things that should be done, otherwise the reputation of Xue Yulu, which Xue Laosan has managed so easily, will be ruined on the streets.
Therefore, during these three months of abundant finances, Xue Xiang also promoted the Xiaoshan County Standing Committee and issued several new decrees.
First, significantly improve teachers' salary. To be honest, teachers' salary at this time is really too low. If the family does not have land or other major labor forces, it is almost impossible for a teacher to support the whole family based on salary alone. This point.
Xue Xiang from that time
When he was presiding over the matter of teachers' salary repayment, he had a deep understanding of it. The teacher who was so hungry that he pulled up his clothes and exposed his terrible pelvis will never be forgotten. Now Xiaoshan County is rich, and the teachers who teach and educate people,
What can be taken into consideration should naturally be taken into consideration.
Second, the arrears of various villages, production teams, and farmers over the years have been written off. To be more specific, although there is no such thing as later generations, in fact, the burden on farmers is also extremely heavy, and there is little land.
After a year of hard work, the family has paid the national taxes and deducted the cost of production materials. In addition to filling their stomachs, it is almost impossible to have any surplus. Not to mention the encounter with ruthless village officials, clever names, and several fund-raising activities. Farmers
The days were simply unbearable.
Not to mention those who have children at home who still need to study, or those who have headaches and fever and need medical treatment. It can be said that except for those who have craftsmen who can do side jobs at home, there is no family that does not owe the brigade or the township.
Government funds.
Xue Laosan has been in Xiaoshan for two years. It can be said that he has spent more time in the countryside than he has spent in the county. The biggest gain from private interviews in private is to obtain first-hand information about the current living conditions in rural areas. In fact, several
During each of my visits, I encountered village cadres bringing militiamen to farmers' homes to drag pigs and cattle to use them as tax credits.
People's livelihood is very difficult, and Xue Laosan knows it very well. In the past, he was powerless, but now that he has the ability, how can Xue Laosan turn a blind eye again. Therefore, with a stroke of the ink pen, he was relieved of all these years of worries. On that day, this
politics
When the policy was issued, the whole county was in rejoicing, and some remote villages even started to build ancestral halls for Secretary Xue. This frightened Mr. Xue to the point of yelling at the local township government all night long, and the township government acted quickly to stop this farce.
However, reducing or reducing arrears can only give farmers a little breather, but it is far from enough to achieve the goal of enriching the people. Fortunately, Xue Laosan has always done anything, either not doing it or doing nothing, to help the people.
The child is imprinted in his heart, and a larger plan is brewing!
Third, it overturned the original greenhouse vegetable base plan that was like a little-footed daughter-in-law and started a violent expansion. Previously, the second round of the greenhouse vegetable base expansion plan, which is today, was originally planned for six. At that time, Duan Gang did not follow
Xue Xiang complained that the pace was too small, but Xue Xiang did not dare to take a big step in view of many factors such as the county's finances, transportation, and possible sales pressure at the time.
Now that Xiaoshan's finances are abundant, it can be said that the road construction plan has been fully launched since the day Xue Xiang brought back the explosive news of Xiaoshan's port construction from the capital. Not only, all the main roads in various towns and villages have been repaired, but also the Xiaoshan road that has been shelved
The main cement road leading to Huayuan was also started again. It is true that Xiaoshan did not spend more money financially out of thin air because of this news.
But in fact, with that news, it was enough. No one would think that Xiaoshan would be short of money. Xue Xiang's old friend, the vice president of Huayuan Branch of China Construction Bank who was promoted because of the hardware factory Longqi installment plan, was not
, Zhou Mingren, who is now the president, came to the door of his own initiative and without saying a word, he loaned two million to the Xiaoshan County Government.
Nowadays, the cement road from Xiaoshan to Huayuan has been built long ago, so when Xue Laosan in the car saw Wei Lan swerving the car, he naturally couldn't help but ask questions.
"I drive as you please and you sit as you please. There's so much talk!"
Wei Lan still said coldly, which made Xue Laosan speechless.
In fact, since yesterday, Wei Lan was angry and took down Xue Laosan, but she has not given Xue Laosan a good look.
Wei Meiren snatched the driver's seat, but he didn't even dare to let out a fart, so he honestly went to sit in the passenger's seat.
When a woman drives a car or a man sits in a car, it is always a shameful act. If you put it in front of the Qing Dynasty and let those old masters see it, you will definitely be so angry that your white beard will stand tall and you will curse a few words. The world is upside down and the yin and yang are in chaos!
After being scolded, Xue Laosan became more honest. Sitting there bored, he could only look out the window and enjoy the scenery.
Fortunately, no matter how bad the mountains and rivers are, if they are covered by the white snow, they will still have some color. This principle is quite similar to the saying "one white covers all ugliness".
The scenery outside the window is really good. The snow suddenly stopped. Along both sides of the road, there are large tracts of farmland. The terrain here is open and the farmland is flat. The thick white snow covers it, and it actually looks like the sea. The car enters the boat and the car speeds.
As we go back, there is an occasional blow, and the snowflakes attached to the wheat seedlings swell up, just like the waves are making waves.
The sky has been covered with heavy snow for a long time, and more and more small animals have no food. The sea of snow on the left and right sides seems to have become the best place to find food. From time to time, one or two hares pop out of the sea of snow, and three or five pheasants flutter around.
Occasionally, a person's head will pop up. If you look closely, you will see that most of them have a smiling face, holding a net and a fork in their hands. The fork in the net is often empty, and there is often a pheasant or a handful of fat rabbits.
Xue Xiang could even imagine that on this night, the family would stew a pot of meat, sit around the stove on a snowy night, talk in bed together, talk about the harvest, and talk about ancient fun, which would be the greatest happiness in the world.
Looking at it, a smile overflowed on Xue Xiang's face. Although Wei Lan, who was driving in front of him, was driving with anger, in fact, all his thoughts were on Xue Laosan. With his starry eyes, apart from looking at the road, he spent most of his time doing other things.
He was staring at Xue Laosan. At this moment, seeing Xue Laosan's little face, Wei Mei's heart was inevitably shaken.
Because she has seen Xue Laosan look arrogant, domineering, majestic, and even cunning and cunning, but she has never seen Xue Laosan show such a warm smile.
Wei Lan stared out the window, glanced around, and understood, muttering to herself, why is this little man who wants to kill people more and more attractive.
As the car continued on the road, the scenery remained unchanged, and Xue Laosan gradually lost interest. Thinking about it, it was a popular Hollywood blockbuster, and he would be bored after watching two of them in a row, not to mention the unchanging pure white.
The wind outside the window seemed to be getting stronger and the sky was getting darker. At this time, Xue Laosan realized something strange - the car was driving too slowly.
However, he said that the drive from Huayuan to Xiaoshan was only more than three hours. After lunch at 12 noon, he set off. Now it is past four o'clock, and Xiaoshan County is still nowhere to be seen.
It gets dark early in winter, but with this gloomy weather, it will only get dark within a few hours at most.
But according to this beauty Wei's approach, it would probably be midnight before she could get home.
"Minister of Health, I said, can you hurry up!"
If it were anyone else, Xue Laosan might not care what time he got home, but it happened to be this Miss Wei.
He and Wei Meiren were prone to scandals. Yesterday Wei Meiren came to invite him. He was worried about this, but he couldn't resist, so he was forced to go with her.
If he had just arrived in Xiaoshan this late in the evening and was seen by an acquaintance, he might have thought about it.
A single man and a widowed woman should be avoided even if they should be avoided!
