Chapter 218: Proposing Schemes
After lunch, Wang Yuanchao and his family sat on the sofa in the house, boiling water and drinking Kung Fu tea.
Now that the weather has turned cold, the family no longer rests on the lounge chairs on the porch.
In the house, we drank Kung Fu tea, played with the little girl, and had fun as a family. It was a good way to pass the time.
The money and grain had just been distributed today, and Wang Yuanchao handed over the management of the poultry breeding base to Wang Hua.
I am at home with my family, spending my days leisurely and comfortably, and I feel very peaceful and happy.
Unfortunately, the family had not been sitting there for a while when there was a knock on the gate of Wang Yuanchao's house . After his mother-in-law went out, it turned out that it was the aunties and grandmas from the village who came to thank Wang Yuanchao for coming with chickens, ducks and geese.
Wang Yuanchao couldn't sit in the house now, so he could only follow his mother-in-law to the gate of the yard, welcome these aunts and grandmas into his yard, sit in a circle in the yard, and chat with everyone about family matters.
Wang Yuanchao has been in the Hongqi Brigade for almost two years, but this is the first time that a collective gift-giving and door-to-door thank-you scene like today has taken place. It seems that for this dividend distribution today, the villagers of the Hongqi Brigade are sincerely grateful to Wang Yuanchao from the bottom of their hearts.
After the first wave of aunts and grandmas arrived, aunts and grandmas from other families in the village also began to come to Wang Yuanchao's yard one after another to thank Wang Yuanchao. Although chatting with the aunts and grandmas was tedious and tiring, Wang Yuanchao's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
It was not until around four o'clock in the afternoon that Secretary Zeng, the team leader and several other village cadres came to the door carrying chickens, ducks and geese. Only then did these aunties and grandmas express their gratitude and say a lot of words before leaving Wang Yuanchao's home.
Secretary Zeng and other village cadres came with chickens, ducks and geese to have a drink with Wang Yuanchao.
So my mother-in-law helped and started killing chickens, ducks, and sand geese, chopping meat and preparing the dishes.
Wang Yuanchao sat in the yard with the village cadres and chatted.
After opening a pack of Huazi and handing each person a cigarette, Wang Yuanchao took two puffs and said, "Secretary, the weather is getting colder. There are still several thousand pigs and other poultry at the poultry breeding base.
We had to notify the provincial capital, the county, and the commune to take the things away. In this weather, they took the live poultry back, killed them, and put them in the warehouse. They froze that day.
We have to wait until the New Year to distribute benefits to their employees, and the meat won’t go bad. Otherwise, if we wait a few more days and it snows, it will be difficult to ship out the goods from our poultry breeding base.”
Secretary Zeng took a few puffs of his cigarette and said:
"Wang Zhiqing, I've already notified them. Starting the day after tomorrow, these units will send a fleet of vehicles to haul away all the poultry from our poultry breeding base. Then we can start hibernating."
Wang Yuanchao nodded, "Okay, Secretary, I understand."
While responding, Wang Yuanchao was mentally calculating the bill exchanges with several units in the provincial capital.
Suddenly, Party Secretary Zeng continued to speak: "After collecting the public grain in the public office yesterday, Director Niu called me to a private meeting and said that our Red Flag Brigade had done a good job in collective enrichment and that we should report it to the higher authorities and then report the events of our Red Flag Brigade on a large scale and publicize it as a typical example.
They also wanted to promote me to be deputy director of the commune.
Wang Zhiqing, what do you think about this matter? "
Wang Yuanchao blew out a smoke ring and asked, "Secretary, how did you answer?"
Secretary Zeng looked at everyone present with a deep gaze and said, "I didn't agree directly. I said I was old and needed to think about it."
Wang Yuanchao lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "There should be no room for discussion on using the Red Flag Brigade as a model for publicity. Although the work was done by our Red Flag Brigade, it was done under the leadership and direction of our superiors.
Leaders certainly hope that their achievements will be known and praised by more senior leaders, as this is their political achievement and capital for promotion.
As for whether the branch secretary should be transferred to the commune, I personally think it depends on the branch secretary's personal wishes.
After all, from the perspective of your personal political career, you have made several leaps this time, directly reaching the position of a proper commune leader.
As for whether this is good or bad for the Red Flag Brigade, I am not sure. "
Secretary Zeng was not moved by Wang Yuanchao's words and continued to ask without comment:
"Wang Zhiqing, what do you say?"
Wang Yuanchao pursed his lips and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Our Red Flag Brigade's sideline business is doing so well now. There is so much reserved funds in the account. It is also a point-to-point assistance project for enterprises in the provincial capital. The funds flow from public to public. The commune can't intervene and can't collect taxes.
Next year we will continue to build the third poultry breeding base. By then, our team's annual sideline output is expected to exceed 10 million.
Hey, I guess the commune is not as rich as our brigade. At this time, you are promoted to the commune as the branch secretary.
What good can come of this for our Red Flag Brigade? "
Captain Liu reacted at this time. Coming from a military background, he slapped the bench angrily and said:
"They dare. This is the hard-earned money of all the villagers in our Red Flag Brigade. I want to see who dares to touch it."
Wang Yuanchao opened his mouth, sighed, and said nothing.
Secretary Zeng interrupted Captain Liu's anger and said:
"Captain Liu, what are you doing? Aren't you discussing something?
Why are you so angry about something that hasn't happened yet?
Wang Zhiqing, since you think so, how do you think they will handle this matter?"
Wang Yuanchao actually didn't want to take up this topic, but now Wang Yuanchao and the village cadres are like one who prospers and one who suffers, and it would be unreasonable not to give everyone a heads up, so he thought for a while and said:
“In fact, if the Party secretary really went to the commune, there would be a lot of room for maneuver after a Party secretary was parachuted into the village.
For example, isn't the country calling on everyone to build small rural enterprises? The enterprises in the village need money, right? Buying machines and building sites need money, right? For example, now that our brigade has a higher income and is richer, we need to build bridges and roads, right? Muddy roads cannot reflect the dignity of our Red Flag Brigade, so we should at least build cement roads, right?
How much money will be invested in the Golden Bridge, Silver Road and Copper Building project? For example, the economy of our Hongqi Brigade is good now, and the brigade and villagers have money. Can we pursue administrative status?
Our Red Flag Brigade has done a good job. We can apply to the higher authorities to include the surrounding production brigades and apply to establish a town. If we want to establish a town, we must build a new street in the town, right?
Are the schools, hospitals and other living facilities in this town up to par?
These are all large-scale projects, and they require a lot of money, right? But it doesn't matter. It takes ten years to grow a tree, and a hundred years to educate a person. As long as we develop our Hongqi Brigade into Hongqi Town and let the villagers of our Hongqi Brigade live an urbanized life, wouldn't this improve the quality of life of the villagers of our Hongqi Brigade?
As for the fact that the brigade made money but didn’t distribute dividends, it’s because the brigade has been doing a lot of construction in recent years to improve people’s happiness. If we can’t distribute the money, what does it matter? We have been upgraded to a town, and everyone is living an urbanized life, right?
Won’t we all be town residents in the future? It will be so prestigious when we go out, right?
Yes or no?"
