In the conference room, Guo Haoran, the deputy secretary of the county party committee who had witnessed the whole incident, recalled his strong doubts when he heard Huo Qianli explain the plan. Looking at the scene of unanimous approval, he couldn't help but recite a poem in his heart: The road to officialdom is long and arduous!
At this time, Secretary Li slowly said, "Comrades, there is another issue that we did not mention just now. If this project is not placed in Hushan Village, how can we ask for support from our superiors? We have proposed many plans to revitalize the Dongjiang economy with Chinese medicinal materials, but none of them have been approved. This is not only an opportunity for us to give Hushan Village, but also an opportunity for Hushan Village to give us! Riding on their momentum, taking advantage of their power, giving us a chance to get the city and the province to agree."
Everyone's heart trembled, and many people broke out in cold sweat.
If I hadn't seen the situation clearly and had tried desperately to fight for my old base, wouldn't I have been a fool when the secretary made this move?
"Secretary Li, there is a major problem. The industrial park is located in Qianfu Town. How do we solve the transportation problem?"
At this time, someone asked.
If you ask just now, it means you are nitpicking and objecting;
Now that the general direction has been determined, asking questions again will solve the problem.
Everyone present understood the subtlety of this.
A deputy county magistrate who had been the director of the Transportation Bureau spoke in detail, "From Dongjiang County to Qianfu Town, it's 73 kilometers, 58 kilometers of which are provincial roads and 15 kilometers of county roads. The provincial roads don't need to be repaired, but the 15 kilometers of county roads need to be repaired. Two-way two-lane roads with cement pavement. After strict audit, it can be 1.2 million per kilometer. The total cost is 18 million. Including miscellaneous expenses, 20 million should be enough."
Everyone nodded, and their expressions not only did not become ugly, but instead eased a little.
This amount of money is naturally a considerable expense for Dongjiang County, but this project must be reported to the higher authorities. If it can be completed with an investment of 30 million in the park's infrastructure, the possibility of approval will be much greater.
After all, the trend of coordinated urban and rural development and building a new socialist countryside is gaining momentum, and Hushan Village is also in its heyday.
"But!" The deputy county chief pointed at the table again, "There is still nearly eight kilometers of road from Qianfu Town to Hushan Village! The road infrastructure is quite poor. If we repair it, we may get 1.5 million per kilometer."
One hundred and fifty times eight is twelve hundred, and the road surface alone is thirty million.
Worry instantly weighed on their hearts. The infrastructure construction mania has not yet started, and local governments have not yet enjoyed a decade of abundant wealth.
Although Dongjiang County's GDP last year was 7.5 billion, ranking among the top 30 in the province, well, it sounds good, it's 29th.
But that is purely due to the population. The per capita GDP is just over 6,000, ranking 96th among the more than 180 districts and counties in the province.
If just improving the traffic would cost 30 million, plus all the expenses for formally building the park, I'm afraid it would cost more than 40 million. Just thinking about it makes me feel that I can't afford this money.
The atmosphere was a little depressing for a moment. Secretary Li was just about to lift the mood when he heard Guo Haoran speak up, "Everyone, I actually have an idea."
He asked the staff to take out an administrative map of Dongjiang County and spread it on the table. "Secretary Li, County Magistrate Su, everyone, what are we trying to do in essence by solving this traffic problem? We want to build a path for Hushan Village to connect with the outside world, right?"
Everyone nodded in confusion. Isn't this nonsense?
Guo Haoran smiled slightly, "Then why do we have to go through Qianfu Town?"
???
Everyone was stunned. Isn't this nonsense? Hushan Village is right in Qianfu Town. Where else can they go if not through Qianfu Town?
The deputy county chief who had been the director of the Transportation Bureau suddenly became excited, "Secretary Su, do you mean to go through Shangu Town?"
Guo Haoran smiled and nodded, "Not bad."
He picked up a pencil and circled Qianfu Town in the corner of the county map. Then he looked at everyone and circled Hushan Village in the corner of Qianfu Town. He pointed at the black line that separated the two towns. "Hushan Village is located on the edge of Qianfu Town. Across the mountain from it is Shangu Town! It's just that there are only narrow paths here, and cars can't pass through them. You have to cross the mountain. Usually, only some villagers who are visiting relatives take a walk. Villagers who are going to the market would rather go to Qianfu Town. But this section of road is only five kilometers."
"Moreover, there is a highway exit in Shangu Town!" the deputy county magistrate added excitedly.
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly stood up and looked at the map. Sure enough, Hushan Village was not far from the market town of Shan Ancient Town.
"That's a good idea! As long as Hushan Village is easy to get in and out of, it'll be fine."
"Moreover, this method can save a lot of money in the first phase of construction. Even if the road in Qianfu Town needs to be repaired in the future, it can be invested slowly according to the benefits of the industrial park."
"Yes, think outside the box. Secretary Guo's idea is great."
Just as everyone was praising Guo Haoran's plan, a voice reminded: "Everyone, it's more expensive to dig a tunnel through the mountain!"
Everyone was stunned. Fortunately, the deputy county chief who had been the director of the Transportation Bureau still had a wave of his hand and said, "We are in a hilly area. The mountains are not high. There is no need to build a tunnel. We can just go over the mountain. It's just a short section. It won't be a big problem if we widen the road a little bit."
Someone else asked a question hesitantly, "Will Qianfu Town agree to this?"
An industrial park can drive many related industries. If all transportation goes through Shan Gu Town, Qianfu Town will suffer a great loss!
Someone immediately snorted, "Who cares if they agree or not, the county's decision, do they still have any organizational discipline?"
