He tapped the lid of the teacup gently. "But what about this matter? Where is the win-win for all parties? With such huge expenses, other than being able to solve the resettlement requirements of these few households being relocated, are there any direct benefits?"
"Okay, you said we could transfer more land, but how much is the benefit compared to the expenditure? The benefit is not enough!"
Secretary Zheng looked at him and asked sharply.
Huo Qianli pursed his lips and thought for a while, "We can give them a better living environment."
Secretary Zheng leaned forward and said slowly, "They just got a chance to eat meat to their heart's content!"
Huo Qianli was silent.
Secretary Zheng sighed, took out a cigarette from his desk and lit it, looking at Huo Qianli with concern, "You weren't like this before. You used to plan things out before you acted, in an orderly and well-organized way. Today, you really fell short of that standard!"
Huo Qianli sighed, his face relaxed again, and said with a wry smile: "Leader, next June."
Secretary Zheng frowned, "What do you mean?"
"I will be leaving next June." Huo Qianli turned his head and looked at him, "There is only one year left!"
He rubbed his temples and said, "I know this step is a little bit forced, but I don't have that much time. The villagers of Hushan Village have been poor for too long, and their lives are too hard. I hope to make their lives better, even if it's just a little bit."
Secretary Zheng suddenly realized and nodded slightly. After thinking for a while, he changed his address and said, "Brother, you are destined to have a great future. We are not superiors and subordinates now. I am more than ten years older than you. I will tell you a few words from the bottom of my heart. If it is useful, you should listen to it. If it is not useful, just treat it as the nonsense of your brother, okay?"
Huo Qianli said quickly: "Please accept... Brother's advice."
"It's not really a matter of teaching you." Zheng Qiang waved his hand. "I don't have any other hobbies. I like to read some history, especially ancient history. Of course, I started by watching some TV dramas, and only in recent years have I started to read them regularly, haha."
"I just found a problem. You see, there are many wise and powerful emperors, such as Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, and Emperor Kangxi. They were all very powerful when they were young, but why do they always have problems in their later years?"
"I recently had an idea, a personal idea! When these powerful emperors reached their old age, their mentality was not right. First, after ruling the country for many years, they felt that they had a deep control over the world, and they could do whatever they wanted. Second, they knew that they were old, and when they had ideas or discovered problems, they took action, they lacked the calmness and meticulousness of their youth, and were inevitably impatient, fearing that they would die if they didn't hurry up."
"In fact, it's the same for you now. No matter how high your prestige is in Hushan Village, you still have to follow objective laws when doing anything, otherwise it's easy to cause trouble. At the same time, you still have to keep a calm mind and don't be impatient!"
He put out his cigarette in the ashtray on the table, smiled meaningfully and said, "Do you think the two poverty alleviation workers before you didn't want the villagers to live a good life?"
Huo Qianli was shocked, nodded, and said sincerely: "Thank you, brother, I've learned a lot!"
Zheng Qiang waved his hand modestly and pointed at the teacup on the table, "Have a sip of tea, don't waste this good tea!"
Huo Qianli took a sip and suddenly said, "Brother, what do you think? Let the villagers who have the conditions do a pilot project according to the voluntary procedure."
Zheng Qiang almost choked and smiled speechlessly, "You won't turn back until you hit the wall!"
"No, no. I listened to everything you said just now." Huo Qianli smiled awkwardly, "Although I was too hasty and too radical in this matter, it is still worth doing, right?"
"As the industrial park develops in the future, if the villagers' economic situation improves, they will naturally have a demand for a better living environment. Instead of letting them build randomly, it is better for us to make a good plan in advance, which does not cost much. Then, we can use this small group of villagers as a model to guide a well-planned Hushan New Village, which can better reflect the development of Hushan Village under the leadership of the county and township governments!"
"As for the cost issue." Huo Qianli paused for a moment, "I just thought of a way. We first count the number of people according to the absolute voluntary requirement, and the village committee will recruit workers to build it. Then the government will subsidize a small part, and then the villagers will pay for it. This can also save costs and make the layout scientific. What do you think of this?"
Zheng Qiang thought about it, then said, "As long as the town and the management committee don't have to pay for it, just do it!"
"That won't work!" Huo Qianli started to act rogue. "It's understandable that the medicinal slice factory doesn't pay us. But if another company moves in, the income from the land transfer should be given to us, right?"
Zheng Qiang smiled calmly, "Distant water cannot quench a nearby fire."
"That's fine, as long as there's water from far away!" Huo Qianli said with a smile: "Then let's have this intention first. I'll go back and have a meeting with the village committee to discuss a reasonable plan and then report to the leaders?"
Secretary Zheng nodded. "Okay, I'll take a good look at your plan when the time comes. If it's not suitable, I won't give in!"
"Don't worry! It's definitely safe this time!"
Looking at Huo Qianli's back as he walked out, Secretary Zheng, who had been sitting on the Diaoyutai, couldn't help but sighed: "It was a rare setback, but he was able to recover so quickly and find a better alternative plan. It's really extraordinary!"
Huo Qianli went downstairs, got on his motorcycle and just left the government office when the phone in his pocket rang.
