While smoking a cigarette, Qiao Liang took out his cell phone and called Cai Minghai. The two chatted about the Huang Hongmei case. Qiao Liang's message was simple, asking Cai Minghai to investigate the case thoroughly.
There is no need for Qiao Liang to say anything about this. Cai Minghai can actually do it, but Qiao Liang gets angry and emphasizes it to Cai Minghai again.
While talking on the phone with Cai Minghai, Qiao Liang saw a figure moving at the door. He took a closer look and saw that the person coming in was Ye Xinyi. Qiao Liang was surprised, Ye Xinyi hasn't gone back yet?
After chatting with Cai Minghai, Qiao Liang hung up the phone and looked at Ye Xinyi, "Xinyi, why are you still here?"
"Just came back from the dinner party?" Ye Xinyi asked.
"Yes, I just came back from the county hotel." Qiao Liang nodded, looked at Ye Xinyi and said, "It's better for you to feel comfortable and find an excuse to escape. Unlike me, I wanted to leave but couldn't, and ended up feeling angry when I stayed. .”
"What's wrong?" Ye Xinyi asked with concern.
"What else can you do? As you saw this afternoon, Wu Jiang has a prejudice against me. At tonight's dinner, he talked to me with guns and sticks," Qiao Liang said.
"What's going on between you and Chairman Wu?" Ye Xinyi said and half-joked, "Qiao Liang, why do I feel that you are very good at offending people? You haven't been working in Songbei for a long time, but the person you offended is... Nothing less."
"Look at what you said, what does it mean that I am very good at offending people?" Qiao Liang couldn't laugh or cry, "This shows that I am serious about my work and not afraid of power."
"You are as stubborn as a cow." Ye Xinyi smiled and shook her head.
"I can't help it. This is my character. Sometimes I think to myself that there is no need to take everything seriously. I can just turn a blind eye and muddle along, but I can't get over the hurdle in my heart." Qiao Liang smiled helplessly, " To seek political power in his position, since I have become this official, I must be worthy of the organization, worthy of the masses, and even more worthy of my own conscience, otherwise I might as well quit."
"What you said makes sense, but in our system, appropriate tact is also necessary. It is impossible to do everything according to your own ideas." Ye Xinyi said.
"Yes, I understand." Qiao Liang sighed, "As Secretary An said, compromise is also part of the job."
"It's good that you know. So, sometimes you should take a step back and don't be stubborn all the time." Ye Xinyi said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I know it well." Qiao Liang smiled, "Let's go, let's go have some midnight snacks?"
"Okay." Ye Xinyi agreed happily.
The two of them walked out of the county compound together and saw a stall selling spicy hot pot on the roadside. Ye Xinyi's appetite was whetted, and she turned to look at Qiao Liang expectantly, "How about we go eat spicy hot pot?"
"Okay, it's okay, as long as the beauty is happy." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
The two of them walked to a stall selling spicy hotpot. Ye Xinyi ordered two portions enthusiastically, and then the two of them stood by and waited.
While the two were talking, Ye Xinyi suddenly let out a sigh and pointed at Qiao Liang, "Why is there a red spot on your body?"
"Where?" Qiao Liang lowered his head and looked at himself.
"It's gone now, it's gone." Ye Xinyi's eyes flashed with confusion, "It's strange, it seemed like someone was shining something like a laser flashlight on you just now."
"Really? Could it be that you saw it wrong." Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Maybe some naughty kid took random photos with that little laser flashlight."
"I don't see any children around here." Ye Xinyi looked around strangely.
"Maybe we didn't notice, hey, your Malatang is ready." Qiao Liang smiled and didn't take it to heart. After all, it was just a small episode. Maybe Ye Xinyi saw it wrong.
The two of them each took a bowl of Malatang and chatted while walking. A small red dot appeared on Qiao Liang again, but because Qiao Liang was moving and passers-by passed by from time to time, the small red dot quickly disappeared again.
Qiao Liang first sent Ye Xinyi back to the dormitory, and then went back himself.
The next day, Qiao Liang came to the office as usual and handled official business for a while in the morning. At around ten o'clock, secretary Fu Minghai walked in and reported to Qiao Lianghui, "County Magistrate, the feedback from the Agriculture Bureau has come over, Linnei Village is suitable for Beekeeping.”
"Really?" Qiao Liang's eyes lit up, "That's great. I think the beekeeping industry can be promoted in Linnei Village and regarded as a project for villagers to get rid of poverty and become rich."
Qiao Liang had a resolute and resolute character, and he did what he said. He immediately arranged for a car to go to Nanshan Township, and at the same time called someone from the Agriculture Bureau.
When the group arrived in the township, the township cadres who had been notified in advance went to meet them at the intersection of the township. After the two parties met, they went directly to Linnei Village.
Qiao Liang came to Linnei Village for the second time in just two days. The cadres in the township were still a little surprised. However, after learning about Qiao Liang's intention, a deputy head of the township in charge of Linnei Village immediately said, "Qiao County "Chief, our township has considered this beekeeping industry before and encouraged villagers to breed it, but in the end it was nothing."
"Why?" Qiao Liang frowned.
"There are two main reasons. First, it is a matter of money. The villagers are already in financial difficulties, so they dare not invest rashly; second, they lack breeding experience and are afraid that they will not be able to support themselves, so the money invested will be wasted in the end." The deputy mayor said.
Qiao Liang thought thoughtfully after hearing this. This was a problem. Although he thought bee breeding was a good project, if the villagers were unwilling to do it, then it would be useless no matter how hard he shouted.
In fact, after all, it is still a matter of money. The villagers are afraid that they will lose money on their investment, mainly because they have no money.
After thinking for a while, Qiao Liang turned to look at the comrades from the Agriculture Bureau, "Can your bureau provide technical guidance on bee breeding technology?"
"This is no problem. We can specially invite people with rich beekeeping experience to guide us. In fact, this problem does not have many technical barriers and is easy to solve." The comrade from the Agricultural Bureau quickly replied.
"Okay, now that the problem is solved, the next question is money." Qiao Liang asked again, "How much investment does it take to buy a hive of bees?"
"It's about seven or eight hundred yuan, but it won't be more than a thousand yuan." The deputy mayor replied. He had learned about it before, so he was quite clear about this.
Qiao Liang heard this and said, "This investment is not very high."
"County magistrate, it costs seven to eight hundred to buy a box of bees. If you buy four or five boxes to raise them, you have to invest a few thousand dollars. For wealthy families, this may not be a big deal, but for people here, To be honest, a few thousand yuan is really not a small amount of money, and the villagers have no problem taking it out, but they are afraid that they will not make any money and lose money. After all, a few thousand yuan may be the villagers' savings for a year." explained the deputy mayor.
Hearing the words of the deputy mayor, Qiao Liang suddenly realized that the accounts were not calculated like he just did. Thinking from his own point of view, he felt that a beehive only cost 700 to 800 yuan, which was not much money, but the villagers' The economic conditions are different from his. Nanshan Township is the poorest township in the county, and Linnei Village is the poorest village in the township. The people here are very financially strapped.
After pondering for a moment, Qiao Liang said to the cadres in the township, "In this way, your township will first arrange for people to enter the villages and households to understand the wishes of the villagers and see how many people are willing to try bee farming and what their main concerns are... Wait, you guys The township will first conduct a survey and statistics. If the problems are all focused on funds, then we will find ways to focus on solving this money problem later."
"Okay." The township cadre replied quickly.
In the following time, Qiao Liang visited the village again and returned to the county near evening.
Qiao Liang is undoubtedly concerned about the poverty alleviation work in Linnei Village, not only because he made harsh words at the meeting to lift Linnei Village out of poverty within two years, but most importantly because as the county magistrate, he must Only if he is truly serious about taking such a leading role, the people below will see him as the county magistrate working so hard in poverty alleviation work, so they will follow suit. Otherwise, some will just do superficial things.
Back in the county, before leaving get off work, Qiao Liang did not forget to tell Fu Minghai, "Xiao Fu, you must follow up on the matter in Linnei Village in a timely manner. If there is any news, report to me as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, I will keep a close eye on this matter." Fu Minghai replied.
Qiao Liang nodded when he heard this. Without saying anything else, he went downstairs and took the car to the city.
Qiao Liang brought some local specialties from Songbei and planned to go to the boss Li Youwei's house for dinner in the evening.
The two hadn't gotten together for some time, and Qiao Liang planned to have a few drinks with the boss.
When the car was driving on the road, Qiao Liang did not notice the car following closely behind.
It was past six o'clock when he arrived in the city, and Qiao Liang went directly to Li Youwei's home.
The person who opened the door was Li Youwei. Seeing that Qiao Liang was carrying something in his hand, Li Youwei said, "Come here, what else do you bring."
"Boss, these are some local specialties from Songbei. They are not worth much, and I can't afford to give away the expensive ones." Qiao Liang laughed.
"It seems that when you are a county magistrate, you still think you are a poor person." Li Youwei said with a smile.
"You can't even call yourself poor, but you only have a normal wage income, so you can't become rich." Qiao Liang laughed.
"This is right. Don't be an official for money. Don't be an official for money." Li Youwei said seriously.
"The boss is right." Qiao Liang nodded subconsciously and was a little dazed for a moment. It was rare to see Li Youwei so serious. Qiao Liang seemed to have gone back to the earliest time when he had just been admitted to the Sanjiang County Propaganda Department and met Li Youwei for the first time. The promising scene.
Seeing Qiao Liang in a daze, Li Youwei waved his hand in front of Qiao Liang and said, "What's wrong? Are you scared by my words?"
"No, I was thinking of the time when I first came to work in the Sanjiang County Propaganda Department." Qiao Liang said with emotion.
Li Youwei was in a daze after hearing this. His career started in Sanjiang, and his early career was smooth sailing. If he hadn't been dismissed due to financial problems while working at Jiangzhou Daily, perhaps he would have reached a higher level in his career now. Is it the location?
Sighing silently in his heart, Li Youwei felt somewhat regretful. His dream was to show his talents in the system, but this dream died prematurely.
