Chapter 8 chapter eight

Du Guanghui didn't know that behind him, Secretary Xiao Wang and Director Shi of the Civil Affairs Bureau were muttering in their hearts: This snow day, Secretary Du is really, it's not enough to fight the snow in Chengguan Town, and go to Woershan run.Perhaps, Secretary Du didn't know that when the road was good to get to Wo'ershan, the car would have to run for an hour and a half, and then get off and walk for another hour.Woershan is the most remote mountainous village in Tongshan.There are high mountains and dense forests, and there is only one road leading to the outside of the mountain since ancient times.The tea in Woer Mountain is good, which is why Du Guanghui wanted to come in to have a look.But, you can see it, can't you choose such a snowy day?Ugh.

Before leaving Chengguan, Director Shi had reported sideways to Secretary Du Guanghui that it was inappropriate to go to Woer Mountain in such weather and season.But Du Guanghui said it was okay.People in the mountains don't come in and out?If they can get in and out, why can't we?Director Shi choked on these words, so he could only say, "Then go in, because I'm afraid..." "What are you afraid of? There are roads everywhere, and you can go if you have a road. Xiao Wang, call Yushu Township." Du Guanghui ordered. The cadres in Yushu Township also went to the countryside to fight against the snow. I heard that the deputy secretary of the county party committee, Du Guanghui, was coming to inspect the anti-snow work. The other end of the phone immediately said: "We will immediately notify the secretary and the head of the township, and ask them to wait for Secretary Du. .”

When the car arrived in Yushu Township, Li Kai, the secretary of Yushu, did not rush back because he was too far away from his hometown.The mayor, Gao Yu, was there.As soon as the car came to a complete stop, Du Guanghui heard a woman screaming: "Secretary Du is here. This snowy day is really a rare visitor, a rare visitor!" After speaking, Gao Yu was already standing in front of Du Guanghui.This is a woman in her thirties. Although her face is a bit tired, it can be seen that she was a beautiful person when she was young. "My name is Gao Yu, Secretary Du." Gao Yu stretched out his hand, and Du Guanghui shook it. The hand was a bit rough, not as delicate as the hands of women in the city.

Xiao Wang said: "Major Gao from Yushu is the only female mayor in the whole county." "That's right, he's also the head of the smallest and poorest mountain village in the county." Gao Yu laughed at himself. Du Guanghui said: "Major Gao has worked hard. We want to go to Woershan to see." "Wo'er Mountain?" Gao Yu was probably also a little surprised, and asked, "Wo'er Mountain is heavily snowed, and it's not impossible to get in for an hour and a half. Secretary Du really wants to go?" "Yes, I want to go in. I want to go there to learn about the tea disaster and next year's production situation." As soon as Du Guanghui finished speaking, Gao Yu smiled and said, "Well, Secretary Du was the first to propose going to Woershan A leader who understands the tea situation. That’s great! I thought Secretary Du was there to visit relatives. If not, let’s go!”

Director Shi and Xiao Wang glanced at each other, but smiled helplessly. From Yushu Township to the north, after walking less than one place on the Jigeng Road, it entered the mountainous area.The heavy snow is pressing on the road, and it is also pressing on the trees and grass on the mountain.There are some trees that can be seen from the road that have been broken by the snow.Near the road, snow was piled up in piles, but it could be clearly seen that there was still a line of deep and shallow footprints on the mountain trail in the snow.Gao Yu said: "People from Wo'er Mountain came out to step on it. No matter how heavy the snow is, they still have to go out of the mountain. Some mountain products can only be sold at a good price during this season."

"Why didn't the road be built?" Du Guanghui asked. Director Shi answered, "It's not that it won't be repaired, but it's too difficult. The county has thought about it several times and planned to repair it. But it still hasn't been completed. The mountain is too deep and the roadbed is not good. The cost of road construction is too high. In terms of administrative division, the county is preparing to gradually relocate the people from Woershan." "This is a good idea, Chief Gao, look..." Du Guanghui asked Gao Yu, who was walking with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

Gao Yu didn't look back, but said: "The county has been talking about it for more than ten years. Since I came to Yushu Township, it has said that I want to immigrate. Now it seems that this is not zoning, but fooling the people. A lot of money has been used elsewhere. , as soon as you arrive at Woer Mountain, it will be gone." Xiao Wang looked at Du Guanghui. A clump of snow was falling from the trees on the road. Xiao Wang quickly gave Du Guanghui a hand. Du Guanghui said, "Major Gao seems to have his own views on immigrants. Tell me." Gao Yu smiled and said, "I have my own opinions, but I'm afraid that Secretary Du is willing to listen."

"Why don't I listen? Tell me." Du Guanghui felt that Gao Yu, the female township head, was a bit interesting. Sure enough, as soon as Gao Yu opened his mouth, he said: "I have always disapproved of immigration. The cost is high, and the people there don't agree. Woershan is a good place. Although there is no rice in the farm area, there is tea. Woershan In the Qing Dynasty, the tea was tribute tea. That area has good geomantic omen, which is especially suitable for the growth of tea. The tea grown there is of good quality and taste, which is different from other places. I have been giving suggestions to the county party committee, Develop tea in mountainous areas. Farmers increase their income by planting tea. Life will get better. It’s Woer Mountain, as long as you have money, why not come?”

Director Shi interjected and said, "Major Gao is easy to say, but hard to do. The development of tea can't be effective for a while. Especially the contribution to finance is small. It's so difficult!" Du Guanghui listened to Director Shi's words, and felt that the director's inadvertent sigh at this time really pointed out a crux of the development of mountainous areas.The development of mountainous areas and fiscal revenue, the increase of farmers' income and the performance of cadres.These problems are not small problems, all of them are big problems.If these big problems are studied, it will not be clear in ten or eight years.Once it is unclear, the development of Woer Mountain can only be included in the division.

The road is getting steeper and steeper, and in some areas people have to pull the trees and vines beside the road to walk up.Gao Yu has been walking ahead. She has worked in the mountains for a long time and is used to this kind of road.It's just that Du Guanghui, although he specially changed into a pair of sneakers when he went out in the morning, the narrowness of the mountain road and the slipperiness after the snow were beyond his expectation.Fortunately, Xiao Wang would give him a hand from time to time, and sometimes Gao Yu would turn around and give him a hand.After walking for more than an hour, I finally saw the blue smoke rising from the mountains.Gao Yu said, "Here we are. Is Secretary Du tired?"

Du Guanghui smiled and said, "It's okay. However, this road is really..." Director Shi and Xiao Wang were both panting constantly, especially Director Shi, who was a bit older after all, and his face was flushed from panting.Gao Yu said with a smile: "Director Shi seems to be lacking in exercise, so he will simply come to this Woer Mountain in the future. After a few walks, his body will immediately improve. Why are you still panting like this?" "Yes, yes. In two years, when I retreat to the second line, I will really come here. I don't know if you want it, Chief Gao?" "Yes, definitely!" Xiao Wang suddenly laughed, and said, "Director Shi is trying to trick Chief Gao. Don't you know that Chief Gao is still famous and destitute?" "Haha, anyway, she said she wants it. Just leave it alone." Director Shi said, but Du Guanghui turned to look at Gao Yu.Although Gao Yu looks young, he is at least in his thirties, why is he still a celebrity?Are you looking down on others?Still not suitable?Or... Before Du Guanghui had time to think about it, Gao Yu had already walked into the mountain ahead. The smoke is getting closer and closer, and the blue smoke reminds Du Guanghui of his hometown.That was the Great Northern Plains, with the smoke rising from the kitchen, and it was peaceful.When he was a child, Du Guanghui liked to stare at the cooking smoke in a daze.He always thought: Where did the cooking smoke rise to?Is it in the sky?Or to some other planet?The old people said that the cooking smoke has returned to the soil recently.Du Guanghui didn't understand.The cooking smoke clearly ascended to the sky, so how could it return to the soil?Can it bend down?Find a place where he can't see, and then drill into the ground? Cooking smoke is the hometown, which is the poet's language.When Du Guanghui was in college, he left the Great Plains for the first time and left the smoke he was used to seeing. He couldn't help crying.My father said: "Baby, why are you crying? It's a good thing to go out. When you remember the smoke, you remember your home." After arriving at university, he fell in love with poetry. The first poem he wrote was Call.After finishing writing, he read it to his classmates in the same dormitory, and they said: "It's so real, so true. It's a good poem." That poem was rewritten by a classmate in Du Guanghui's yearbook when he graduated. The cooking smoke on this Woer Mountain is also blue, but because of the mountain, the cooking smoke doesn't appear to be too high.But Du Guanghui still smelled the breath of the country from the smoke.That was the breath that had moistened him since childhood, that was the breath in his bones, the breath in his heart... After walking for another half an hour, a large village appeared in front of us. Gao Yu said, "Secretary Du, we're here." Down to the head of the village, the cadres in the village are going door to door to check the snow conditions.The houses of several families collapsed here two days ago. Fortunately, they were found in time and no casualties were caused. The village party secretary is a tall, middle-aged man who also looks decent.Gao Yu said: "This is Secretary Du of the county party committee, and this is Secretary Huang of the village. He used to be in the army, but now he is doing business outside the mountains while working as the party secretary." Du Guanghui shook Huang Zhishu's hand and asked: "Being a businessman and being a village cadre, this..." Director Shi said from the side: "Nowadays, there are fewer people working as cadres in the countryside. There are not a few people in the county who have both ends. This is the case outside the mountains, let alone in the mountains? Fortunately, there are fewer and fewer things in the countryside. Otherwise ..." "The key is that you can't keep people. This Huang Zhishu has done a lot of work in the village before he agreed to be the party secretary. However, this person can still do it. Every job in Woershan is not bad." "What can I do? It's just that I can't help it. No one will do it. I'm a party member and a demobilized soldier. If I don't do it, I can't justify it." Huang Zhishu said truthfully.Du Guanghui was uncomfortable hearing it.He has been in the province, and although he occasionally visits the county, this is the first time he has heard of such a bad situation in the construction of the village-level team.He frowned, and Gao Yu said, "Secretary Du may not be too happy to hear that. However, the current situation is like this. There are no village cadres, but there are as many township cadres as a swarm." "Oh, yes, I went to Chengguan Town to fight the snow. As soon as I went to work in the morning, the yard was full of people, and they joked that it was time. After the time, people left. When it was time to do something, I couldn't find anyone. This It is the reason for the incomplete reform of the organization, and we should find a way to solve it." Du Guanghui said as he went downhill, and entered Huang Zhishu's home. People in the mountains have one thing in common, which is cleanliness.The same is true of Huang Zhishu's house, which is clean and refreshing.After sitting down, Gao Yu said to Huang Zhishu: "Don't be reluctant, just take out the best tea in your family and let Secretary Du taste the tea from our Woer Mountain. What is it like?" Huang Zhishu said of course, he still had some tea, and he kept it carefully, waiting for a distinguished guest like Secretary Du to come.As he spoke, he entered the room, took out a small tea tube, opened it carefully, and there was another layer of small tubes inside, and opened it again to reveal the wrapped tea leaves.Du Guanghui stretched his head to look, and the tea leaves were not as beautiful as he imagined, and the shape was a bit loose.Gao Yu probably saw Du Guanghui's doubts, and said: "This is the characteristic of Wo'er camellia. It doesn't look good, but it tastes good." "One of my big bosses who did business outside took a fancy to our tea. Every year, he would go to the mountain to sell a dozen or twenty kilograms. Once he got used to drinking tea from Woer Mountain, he drank tea from other places. It will be tasteless." Huang Zhishu said, pouring boiling water into the cup, and then gently covered it with the lid.After two minutes, it was opened again, and Du Guanghui smelled a ray of tea, a very pure tea fragrance, faint, and some orchids. Huang Zhishu handed over the teacup, and Du Guanghui took a sip, which was slightly bitter at first, and then slightly sweet.Aftertaste, there is a sweet feeling on the tip of the tongue.Then, he felt this feeling directly enter the brain from the nose, and at the same time descend to the heart, liver and five internal organs. "Ah..." Du Guanghui took a breath. Gao Yu said, "Secretary Du, after drinking some tea, I'll accompany you around the village. It's snowing heavily here, so nothing happened." Du Guanghui and his party went out, and a road had been shoveled in the village along the front of other people's doors.The snow piled up on the field, and one or two snowmen were piled up in some places.Du Guanghui saw that most of the houses here are old houses.Huang Zhishu introduced that over the past few years Woershan has immigrated more than 20 households.After making some money outside the mountain, I went out to find a place to build a house.Including himself, he also built a house in Chengguan.This house in the mountains is only for him to live in when he comes back alone. "If you don't build a house, you won't even be able to marry a wife!" Huang Zhishu sighed. "The young people in the mountains have basically gone out now, and the rest is the so-called nine-nine-three-eight-six-one. Old people, women, and children. To put it bluntly, I am not afraid that Secretary Du will laugh at it. Now some people die in some places. It is difficult to carry the coffin." Huang Zhishu said, leading Du Guanghui into a family.The house was low and dark, and there was no sound at all. Huang Zhishu shouted: "Old Han, Lao Han, the county leaders have come to see you." At this time, an old voice came from the corner of the dark wall, and then Du Guanghui heard the sound of pulling the electric light.As soon as the light came on, Du Guanghui saw a narrow bed with a man lying on it.His face was withered and dark, and there was a constant panting sound from his throat. Du Guanghui asked Gao Yu: "This household is..." "This is a disabled household and also a five-guarantee household." Gao Yu said, and asked the person on the bed: "Is it cold?" "Okay. The government sent quilts. It's just that the snow is too big, too big." Old Hancang said in a voice. Director Shi asked Xiao Wang to deliver an envelope.The directors of the Civil Affairs Bureau all know that when following the leaders to go to the countryside, they need to carry a few more envelopes like this.Put two hundred, four hundred, or at most six hundred yuan in each envelope, and let the leaders take action to express condolences.Du Guanghui took the money, put it on the side of the bed, and said to Huang Zhishu: "It's cold, we must let such needy households have food, clothes, and warmth." Huang Zhishu nodded, everyone went out, and Lao Han said behind his back: "Thank you, leader, thank you, leader." Du Guanghui's heart was a little heavy, and he visited several poor households in succession. Some were impoverished because of family planning punishment, and some returned to poverty due to illness. Most of them were because there was no way out in this mountain, and there was no way out. The source, I have no ability to go out of the mountain, and I get poor day by day.Gao Yu looked at Du Guanghui's face and said, "If Woershan wants to get rid of poverty, there is no good way except tea. I have also suggested it to the county many times, just... alas!" At the head of the village, Du Guanghui met Huang Dazhuang.Huang Dazhuang was sitting on a yard in front of the gate smoking a cigarette.Seeing Du Guanghui, Huang Dazhuang was a little surprised and stood there dumbfounded.Du Guanghui greeted: "Are you really in Wo'ershan? I'm here right now." "Da Zhuang, do you know Secretary Du?" Zhishu Huang asked. Huang Dazhuang smiled innocently, "I know, I met in the car. Secretary Du? From the village?" "No, it's from the county." Gao Yu said to Du Guanghui, "This Huang Dazhuang is considered a capable man. He sold the tea from Wo'ershan to the provincial capital. But the quantity is too small. However, he is considered a capable man." "Ah, I've seen it before." Du Guanghui asked Huang Dazhuang with a smile, "If all of this Woer Mountain grows tea, how many would there be?" "There are few fields here, but there is a lot of tea plantation land. If it is fully developed, it may be two thousand mu." Huang Dazhuang said, looking at Huang Zhishu.Huang Zhishu nodded and said, "It should be about the same, two thousand mu." "What will happen if a high-quality tea garden of 2,000 mu is built? Sales will not be a problem, right?" Du Guanghui asked Huang Dazhuang.Huang Dazhuang said: "What's the problem? It's not a problem at all. I can do it alone." "Don't talk nonsense. Now you can sell dozens of acres. If there are too many, it will be difficult. However, there is a way to sell. The key is to have good tea and good varieties." Gao Yu said to Du Guanghui. "The next step is to study carefully. Mayor Gao, I suggest that the township come up with a plan for the development of Woershan tea. I will report to the county party committee and try to implement it in the New Year." Du Guanghui said to Gao Yu, and Gao Yu smiled happily. He smiled, and then said with some melancholy: "This kind of plan has been made several times, but..." "This, I must organize well. You just need to plan well. Be detailed, not only about planting, but also about future brands. You must have a long-term vision. More importantly, you need to consider people. Someone needs to do this. I think Huang Zhishu is very responsible, and Da Zhuang is also good. They can be used! Mayor Gao, look, how do you like it?" "Of course that's good. If Secretary Du makes this happen, I, Gao Yu, will be the first to invite Secretary Du to drink." After Gao Yu finished speaking, Du Guanghui also laughed and said, "Then wait, let's drink." I ate in the village at noon, at the house of the village director.People in the mountains still have bacon in December.Pressed in dried vegetables, the aroma is strong.Du Guanghui ate and remembered that when he was a child, his family lived like this.The pork for the Chinese New Year is always kept at the end of the year.The wine I drank was rice wine brewed by people in the mountains, and the wine tasted mellow.Du Guanghui also drank two cups, and Gao Yu wanted to respect him.He drank another glass and said that he would go back to the county in the afternoon, so he stopped drinking.When the development of tea is completed in the future, it is necessary to have a good drink. "No. Get drunk once." Gao Yu added. Because I walked through it in the morning, when I turned back in the afternoon, the road was no longer so difficult to walk.Everyone talked and laughed along the way, and Huang Dazhuang sent them all the way to the place where Du Guanghui saw the smoke.Huang Dazhuang said: "As long as Secretary Du really comes to develop tea, I will follow along with determination." Du Guanghui patted Huang Dazhuang on the shoulder and said, "Good job, just wait." When he arrived at the township government, Li Kai, the secretary of Yushu, was already waiting.After seeing Du Guanghui, Li Kai kept explaining.Du Guanghui said: "It's nothing, you went down to fight the snow, isn't it a good thing? Explain what? I watched it with the head of the village, it's very good." "What did you watch? It's hard for Secretary Du in this snowy day." Li Kai asked, and Gao Yu said that he mainly watched Woershan.Li Kai said why he traveled so many ways, so that Secretary Du...Gao Yu smiled and said: "Secretary Du ordered it himself. Secretary Du put forward a lot of good opinions on the development of tea in Wo'er Mountain. I will report to you later. " Li Kai also laughed, "Wo'er Mountain, in fact, can't do anything well. The economy in the mountainous area is difficult to develop, and there is no way. Secretary Du also knows. I will report to Secretary Du in detail in the afternoon. " "No, I'll go back to the county right away. I know the situation, come back next time." Du Guanghui said and was about to leave. Director Shi was also in a hurry to go back, and there were still some relief quilts waiting for him to go back and distribute.Li Kai looked a little embarrassed, and said: "Secretary Du came to Yushu for the first time, look, this...isn't this too plausible?" "This is the best. Let's go." Du Guanghui said and got into the car. Gao Yu and Li Kai stood in front of the township government. With that plan, I said I wanted it." "Remember, please rest assured the secretary." Gao Yu said. When the car went back, the snow on the road was obviously less.Village and village cadres were mobilized in the township to clean up the road.Director Shi sighed: "This snow, the entire Tongshan, the loss may be tens of millions. I am poor..." "Is it that serious?" Du Guanghui asked. Director Shi said: "Of course there is. This is still direct. There are also indirect ones. Like the mines, they all stopped because of the snow. This loss is even greater. Tongshan depends on the mines, and the finances come from the coal bumps. " "Ah!" Du Guanghui also sighed.Xiao Wang went on to talk about Gao Yu, the mayor of Yushu just now, "Thirty-three, four-year-old, I have never married. It is said that I suffered setbacks in love when I was in college in the early years." "That's impossible. Who didn't fall in love in college? There are a few more. There must be other reasons, or..." Director Shi glanced at Du Guanghui and swallowed the following words. Du Guanghui didn't say a word. In fact, he was also a little puzzled. A female township head in her thirties, who is also quite beautiful, why has she never married?Judging from Gao Yu's expression, she is still quite cheerful, and it can be seen that she is still a very straightforward, somewhat masculine woman.It stands to reason that it is not difficult for such a person to fall in love.why... Du Guanghui suddenly thought of Mo Yalan at this moment.Gao Yu's personality is somewhat similar to Mo Yalan's, they are both big and small.Mo Yalan was in a hurry, and Gao Yu seemed to be in a hurry.Both of them appear to be single now.However, Du Guanghui knew that Mo Yalan had a secret lover.That is a person of good rank and status.Once, Mo Yalan once said to Du Guanghui: She took a fancy to that man, just for his sake, and at the same time for herself as a woman.Otherwise, she doesn't draw anything.Mo Yalan has a good job with a good salary.She is not a woman living off a man.Except for that man, Mo Yalan himself, and Du Guanghui, no one knows about her and that man.It was a top-secret love, and also a happiness hidden forever. Just because Du Guanghui understood Mo Yalan's heart, Mo Yalan not only has the hazy love for Du Guanghui in college, but also has more trust, understanding, and mutual affection for Du Guanghui. The joy of keeping the promise. And Gao Yu, the female head of Yushu Township, Tongshan County, what secrets does she hide in her heart?Is it also like Mo Yalan, who hides love in his heart and does not know it? Du Guanghui shook his head at his random thoughts.The green mountains are covered with snow, the earth is clear, and the earth after the snow is even quieter. Back in the county, Du Guanghui saw that Secretary Lin was in the office, so he rushed over and briefly reported the situation in Yushu in the morning.Secretary Lin said: Comrade Guanghui has worked hard.Fortunately, the snow has stopped, and the main task of the next stage of anti-snow is to restore production, to do a good job of rescue, to help some ordinary people who were hit by the snow to tide over the difficulties.It seems that all walks of life should be mobilized to donate.More importantly, it is necessary to actively resume mine production and open roads so that coal can be transported out continuously.This year, Tongshan's finances are under great pressure! "There is a lot of pressure everywhere, I know. Secretary Lin, I have seen the tea leaves from Woer Mountain in Yushu Township, and I think that in such a mountainous area, we should make more fuss about tea. This is the effective use of mountainous resources to solve the problem of poverty alleviation and prosperity in mountainous areas. The fundamental way." Du Guanghui said, leaning forward. Secretary Lin put aside the document he was looking at, and laughed, "Comrade Guanghui, your research is very solid. Tongshan is a mountainous county, and everyone knows that we need to rely on resources to develop the economy. But how to develop? What resources to rely on There are so many tricks here. Tongshan also determined the idea of ​​focusing on mine development after several sessions of team exploration. It is not that we do not develop tea, but it is difficult to develop. However, since Comrade Guanghui is interested in the development of tea , I think it can also be used as a way of thinking for the development of mountainous areas, and we should think about it carefully. That's the best way!" Du Guanghui smiled, but his heart was cold.He looked at Secretary Lin, who had already buried his head in the pile of documents again.Du Guanghui didn't speak any more, went out and was about to go back to his office.I heard Secretary Lin shouting from behind: "Secretary Du." Du Guanghui came back again, and Secretary Lin took the newspaper on the table and said: "Look, there have been several reports on the snow resistance in the east of the lake in the past few days, and the TV stations are all reporting the situation in the east of the lake. I I thought, our Tongshan is also very good. Even you, Secretary Du, have been fighting on the front line of anti-snow? It seems that our propaganda organization is still not sensitive enough, and we have not made good use of relevant relationships. I have already criticized Minister Wu. I heard that these reports in Hudong were planned by Secretary Jian, whom they assigned as a temporary post. He is also from the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, right?" "Yes", Du Guanghui replied, but his face was a little hot.He didn't expect Jian Youran to make such a plan in the heavy snow.He knew that Jane was flexible, but this move was too beautiful.It allowed Hudong to expand its influence, and made Hudong's cadres know Jian Youran's ability all of a sudden.Not simple, not simple!Why didn't I think of it?In fact, as the vice chairman of the trade union of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, he also knew many reporters from the media.If you really think of it, you can also invite me.However, he didn't expect it.Jane thought of it again.And now, the secretaries have also noticed the expected and unexpected results.Although Secretary Lin said it implicitly, Du Guanghui could tell that he was a little unhappy. "This... I am also responsible. Next, I will think of a way." Du Guanghui said vaguely. "Well, you haven't been back to the provincial capital for a long time. Go back. The snow has stopped and the road has been cleared. Let's rest. Ah!" Secretary Lin said, and handed the newspaper to Du Guanghui.Du Guanghui glanced at it, and the headline on the front page was Hudong Kangxue.He took the newspaper and said, "I'll go back and take a good look."
