It is true that County Magistrate Liu has never thought about currying favor with Secretary Xue, but Secretary Xue is always surrounded by people. He, a marginalized figure, cannot squeeze into the slot at all, but now he has encountered a good opportunity.
His ability to observe people's opinions was not bad. He discovered early that Secretary Xue had an idea, so he took the lead and spoke out.
However, as soon as Deputy County Magistrate Liu said these words, everyone was shocked and suddenly woke up. It was obvious that County Magistrate Liu had made the point and Secretary Xue had some objections!
..
Just think about it, if Secretary Xue had no objection and everyone just wanted to discuss how to spend money, would there be any need to convene the Standing Committee so suddenly?
Earlier, when everyone was talking to themselves and talking nonsense, Secretary Xue remained unshakable and sat firmly on the fishing platform. He clearly had the intention of looking into everyone's heart!
County Magistrate Liu woke up the dreamer with his words!
"Secretary Xue, if you have any opinion, just say it. Is there any need to go around like this? Who among you can refuse to listen to you? Besides, don't you earn all this money? You earn it."
If you don’t believe me, who can tell you no?”
Song Yuntong was always so outspoken, but sometimes, it was much easier to have such a guy beside him who didn't seem to understand the rules of officialdom to charge forward, speak out and control the overall situation.
Xue Xiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Old Song, where did you drink cat urine at noon? You are full of drunken talk. What do you mean I spend the money I earn? This money is clearly the result of the efforts of our Xiaoshan County Party Committee team and the lives of 800,000 Xiaoshan people.
Anyone can spend the hard-earned money they have accumulated!"...
When Xue Xiang said this, Zhong Botao responded: "I think Minister Song is right. Others will spend this money indiscriminately. How can you, Secretary Xue, spend it indiscriminately? After all, you know how hard it is to get this money.
Since you know it's not easy, how can you spend it indiscriminately? Furthermore, Secretary Xue, your idea has never been brilliant. I believe this time's idea will still be as brilliant as ever!"
Zhong Botao's flattery was quite subtle. Liu Li, who had shown his face earlier, frowned and secretly cursed himself for getting carried away and not making persistent efforts! Apparently, he actually made Zhong Botao, his former comrade-in-arms, his current comrade.
The competitors of ri. Who is called Manzhu? The two of them are stepmothers.
Xue Xiangdao: "To describe it as brilliant is a bit too much. In the end, the idea is more important than practicality. Since everyone wants me to say it, I will say it. This is what I think. We are indeed rich financially now. Take this year as an example.
, a financial surplus of seven million, of course, this
It’s not like we really have no place to spend money. We in Xiaoshan can be said to have a lot of waste and industries waiting to be promoted. Let alone 7 million, even 70 million can be spent completely. So, to be honest, we are still
A poor family has a small business, and since the family is poor, the money must be spent on important things."
"Speaking of this critical point, what is the critical point? Minister Song's request to buy a car for the Public Security Bureau, is it critical? Yes, after all, if the public security comrades can equip a few more small jeeps, the police trip time can be shortened;
What County Magistrate Duan said about building a large square is not an important point, it is also an important point.
Not to mention the benefits listed earlier, this square alone can at least enhance the image of Xiaoshan and attract more investment. Even if it is only for this point, it is reasonable to build a square; but these are not the most important after all.
What is the most important thing? It is something closely related to people's livelihood and sentiments."
"Comrades, I think the farmers in Xiaoshan are having the hardest time now. Do you not object to this?"
Xue Xiang gave a long speech and actually pointed out such a thing: farmers are suffering, rural areas are poor, and agriculture is in recession. This has been going on for many years. Is it necessary to mention it separately?
But when Secretary Xue brought it up, there was naturally no response.
Xue Xiang pressed his hands and said: "The farmers in Xiaoshan are suffering the most. Since we can ease our financial situation now, naturally the farmers should be the first to be supported!"
When Xue Xiang's words reached this point, Duan Gang interjected: "I absolutely agree with what Secretary Xue said. To be honest, despite the fact that the greenhouse vegetables are very enjoyable, only a limited number of farmers can benefit from them. Those who have built greenhouses have made a lot of money.
But it’s impossible for them to share the money they earn with other farmers, and besides, we don’t have
In the pursuit of egalitarianism, in fact, most farmers, especially those in remote areas, still have a lot of hardships. I think Secretary Xue proposed this idea in a timely manner. We can definitely use part of the funds to help those farmers who are suffering. It is very powerful.
I think it’s totally possible to have a bigger coverage!”
"Peasants are indeed working hard. For many years, taxes and donations have been increased, and haven't they all been imposed on them? Let's not talk about it before the founding of the People's Republic of China. From the Korean War after the founding of the People's Republic of China to the rapid industrialization, there has never been a time when the farmers have not made a huge difference.
Secretary Xue wants to support farmers with part of his efforts, and I definitely support this with both hands!"
The person speaking was Wang Jian. The old man had come of age when the Republic was founded. Since he had always been in the system, he naturally had a very clear understanding of that period of history. In addition, he had witnessed the suffering firsthand, so he was naturally emotional and shocking when talking about it.
After Wang Jian finished speaking, everyone stopped answering and looked at Xue Xiang.
Xue Xiang took a deep breath of cigarette and said: "Secretary Wang and County Magistrate Duan are right, but just helping is useless. They all say that teaching a man to fish is better than teaching him to fish, but the actual situation in Xiaoshan is actually different."
This is not the case, because the land in most administrative villages is barren and covered with mountains and fields.
They are not suitable for agricultural cultivation at all. Take our greenhouse vegetables as an example. Some of them cannot be promoted due to geographical reasons, but most of them are due to the thin soil. With such objective conditions, no matter how much we help, it is useless. We can help a lot.
Years, I can’t help you for ten years!”
"Secretary, I have already told you that if you have any solution, just tell me and that will be the end of it. We can discuss it over and over without wasting time!"
Song Yuntong interrupted again at the right time. This time, this person was not cooperating with Xue Xiang. He really couldn't bear the trouble. Anyway, in his opinion, regardless of good or bad, the final decision on the trip must come from Xue Xiang.
The secretary said it right out of his mouth, so why bother with it.
Song Yuntong spoke rudely but not harshly, and it could be said that he expressed the sentiments of many people. Xue Xiang's step back and three concessions could be said to have sold out enough, which greatly aroused everyone's curiosity.
Xue Laosan is not just trying to show off. The key is that this matter is too big. He is really afraid that everyone will not be able to accept it for a while, so he keeps warming up.
At this time, seeing that the heat was almost over, he naturally stopped talking: "Okay, I won't tuck it away anymore. That's what it is. I plan to permanently cancel the agricultural tax in Xiaoshan County and implement the nine-year basic education system for primary and secondary school students."
Years of education (there is no such thing as nine-year compulsory education at the moment) are all free, and all primary and secondary school cafeteria fees are exempted!"
Click!
Bang!
Plop!
Xue Laosan's words were like a starting gun. As soon as he finished speaking, there was a shocking movement in the room. Wang Jian, who was moving his chair forward, sat down at the bottom. Fei Liguo, secretary of the Xiaoshan County Party Committee, who had been holding a teacup and drinking water like a clay Buddha, missed it.
The tea cup hit the table. Song Yuntong, who was swinging his chair and smoking, was the most exaggerated. The guy and his chair fell to the ground.
To say that these three made the most moves, the rest of the people were not much better. Either their eyebrows were flying or their eyes were dull. In short, they were all shocked by Secretary Xue's bold words.
To put it into detail, Xue Laosan’s words were truly astonishing. He made three major suggestions in a row, including exemption of agricultural tax, exemption of tuition fees, and exemption of food allowance. To be honest, even one of these three suggestions would surprise everyone for a long time.
, digested for a long time, good guy, at this moment, three thunders exploded at the same time, which was simply challenging everyone's brain cells.
After the noise, the whole place was silent for a long time, and almost no one believed their ears.
Xue Xiang naturally saw the situation of everyone. He also expected this result, otherwise, he would not have warmed up repeatedly before. But what he didn't expect was that everyone's reaction would be so intense.
"Comrades, why, everyone seems to be surprised. Do you think my idea is bad?" Xue Xiang said with a smile.
After Xue Xiang asked, there was still no answer for a long time. After reminiscing about old times, Liao Guoyou said: "Secretary, you are not joking. Don't say three, just one. I believe everyone thinks it is too much. This is simply throwing money away!
"
Isn't this just spreading money? Each of these three items is equivalent to putting money into people's pockets in disguise.
To elaborate, Xue Xiang understands the psychology of current cadres very well and understands why they are so surprised.
This is because the current cadres, no matter how advanced their ideas are, never have the so-called public servant mentality. In fact, at their core, they generally still have the idea of serving the party as pastor and guardian.
For decades since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the government has been thinking about how to make as much money as possible to build national industry on the basis of maintaining the livelihood of farmers and stabilizing the countryside. The scissor gap between industry and agriculture is not just talk. It can be said that from
From top to bottom, from subsidizing industry to supporting government operations, most of the pressure is placed on farmers and agriculture.
Even if there are cadres who have sympathy for farmers, they will not think that there is anything wrong with such thinking. After all, building the country into an industrial power, standing among the nations of the world, and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation are lofty goals in any case. Agriculture
, farmers have to make sacrifices, and when the country becomes strong and industry develops in the future, we can then support agriculture!
It can be said that this kind of concept is the most common, and now, Secretary Xue has such abundant funds, and instead of developing the county's industry, he wants to completely exempt agricultural taxes and cut off the pipeline from agriculture. This is so subversive.
How could Xing's actions not shock everyone?
Of course, if Xue Xiang were an official in this world, he would probably think the same way. However, his soul has penetrated into later generations, and he knows best what the direction of industry and agriculture will be in the future. Even after more than 20 years, the country has abolished agricultural taxes, and farmers have
The current situation of agriculture and agriculture has not changed much. Large areas of land have been abandoned and countless farmers have gone to cities to work. As for industry feeding back agriculture, there is almost no sound. (To be continued.)
