Spring was warm tonight, and the sound of insects could be heard through the green curtains. Spring was getting closer and closer. The earth was unsealed, the mountains and rivers changed. Spring sprouted, and the insects surged. Everything came in a hurry. Before anyone knew it, another spring had arrived.
As Nanyang County turned from warm to cold, the hardworking people seemed to have forgotten the rare snowstorm in winter. Every family supported themselves and rebuilt their homes. The snowstorm was merciless, but the people were compassionate. The party and government did not forget the victims. Special funds were allocated from the province to the city to help them repair or build new houses. Shiwan Village's thousand-person immigration project was also progressing in an orderly manner. Lu Yiwei, a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and the Secretary of the Shiwan Village Party Committee, was practically running around day and night, day and night. He was extremely anxious and worried about the project. However, all kinds of troubles came one after another …
It was not easy to land a project. The procedures before the project was implemented were extremely complicated, giving people a headache. First of all, the project approval had to be established. Professional planning and design units had to be hired to plan the project and form a feasibility study report. After the county development and reform commission approved the project and the county people's congress, the package was submitted to the city. The city would then submit it to the province for approval. After the project approval, the land had to be stored and the nature of the land changed from industrial land to residential land. Then there were all kinds of safety assessments, environmental assessments, earthquake assessments, cultural relics exploration, and so on. Then, the project bidding would be carried out, and qualified companies would be selected to advance the project in multiple sections. This set of procedures could not be completed without a year and a half. It was estimated that it would be after the New Year. Therefore, many projects were operated in violation of the rules. They were going through the procedures as they were being built. However, in order to speed up the project, there was nothing they could do.
Because the project had been included in the Beizhou City's 2001 key project, the relevant procedures that involved the city's first-level department would be given the green light to speed up the process. At the same time, the project bidding was also carried out simultaneously. According to the requirements of the executive deputy mayor, Su Qiming, who was in charge of this project, the project had to be completed and put into use by the end of the year. Time was tight, and the task was heavy. This heavy burden was on Lu Yiwei. His whole body was like a tightened spring, and he did not dare to relax.
"Knock knock knock …" A series of knocks on the door interrupted Lu Yiwei, who was bending over his desk and considering the project planning renderings. Without bothering to raise his head, he snorted and continued to concentrate on working hard.
"Standing Committee Lu, it's time to eat!" Song Yong, the mayor of Shiwan Village, pushed open the door and said.
Lu Yiwei's head was still lowered. He stabbed the cigarette butt that had long been extinguished between his fingers into the ashtray and said attentively, "You go eat first. I'll go later."
Song Yong saw that Lu Yiwei was unkempt, with a nest of grass on top of his head. His eyes were bloodshot, his lips were black, and his face was pale. His fingers, which were holding the cigarette, were yellow from the smoke. The buttons on his shirt were misplaced, and his jacket was casually draped over his shoulders. He looked dispirited and disheveled. Looking at the table again, the ashtray was full of cigarette butts. There were also a few empty cigarette boxes on the side, and ash was everywhere. The table was covered with all kinds of materials and blueprints. The cup was emptied, and there were tea dregs at the bottom. There was even a half-eaten box of instant noodles in the corner. Compared to the clean and handsome him in the past, he was simply incomparable.
Song Yong turned off the lights in the room, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and threw it on the table. He said worriedly, "You didn't sleep for the whole night again?"
Lu Yiwei saw the cigarettes, took out a cigarette, and lit it. He got up and stretched, then walked to the window and twisted his sore waist. He sighed and said, "Song Yong, it's already March now. The earliest construction will start in April, which means that our effective time is only slightly more than eight months. This does not exclude natural factors such as the summer flood season. If that is included, a conservative estimate would be six months. Are you confident that you can complete such a big project in six months? "As he spoke, he turned around and looked at Song Yong anxiously.
Song Yong didn't seem to care at all. He sat on the sofa and said, "No matter how tight the time is, you have to take care of your body. Look at how thin you've become. You're almost like a matchstick. Do you have to work so hard? What's the use of being anxious? Don't you have to implement it one by one? "
Lu Yiwei's heart was burning with anxiety. This project not only concerns the credibility of the city and county governments, but it also concerns the interests of the people. Furthermore, there are many eyes staring at him. Even if there's a problem in one of the links, it will affect the entire project. How can he not be anxious?
Lu Yiwei took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "How's your work going?"
Song Yong replied, "There's not much progress. Many people are not willing to move, nor are they willing to fork out the money. Furthermore, the leaders of the local government are not taking this matter seriously. They did not do the ideological work well, and we still need the county to coordinate with them. "
According to the plan, the project will build 100 two-storey brick and concrete buildings, along with eight apartment buildings. This will solve the housing problem for nearly 1,000 people. With this calculation, the cost of the project will reach over ¥20,000,000, and this does not include the cost of the municipal infrastructure project. If everything is included, it will not even reach ¥30,000,000. Donghua Industrial Group's Chairman, Ding Changhua, had only invested ¥10,000,000. With the various special funds from the city and county governments, there will be a shortfall of at least ¥10,000,000. This made Lu Yiwei restless.
Regarding this matter, Lu Yiwei had specially consulted Su Qiming, who was in charge of this project. Su Qiming's attitude was very clear. This project is for the benefit of the people, but not a charity. The people who want to move in will have to fork out some money, and it will be split according to the number of people. 20,000 per person. This way, the shortfall of funds will be solved!
The idea is always good, but in reality, it is not so simple. This project is for the people in the county affected by the disaster. When they heard that the government will solve their housing problem, all of them were overjoyed and eagerly signed up. But when they heard that they will have to fork out money, they immediately became discouraged and less enthusiastic.
The people have their own calculations in their hearts. Building a house for their own family will cost about 70,000 to 80,000. If they build a bungalow, it will be solved with 30,000 to 40,000. Instead of paying the government, they might as well build their own houses. Some families have 7 to 8 people, and some even have more than 10 people. That will cost more than 100,000! Where will they get so much money? It is not reasonable to charge by the number of people, so they changed it to a household. Even so, the enthusiasm is not high. It is not that the people are not willing to live in new houses, but due to various factors, they have no choice but to give up.
Money is the main reason why the people affected by the disaster are not willing to move. During the snowstorm, most of the houses that collapsed were old houses from before and after the founding of the People's Republic. If they had the money, they would have torn them down and rebuilt them a long time ago. Why would they wait until now? Not to mention 20,000, many families can't even fork out 2,000. How are they going to pay for it? Moreover, after moving into a new house, they still need to renovate and buy furniture and electrical appliances. This is another big expense. Where will the money come from?
Moreover, people have lived in one place for a lifetime, and suddenly have to move to a new place, they will more or less be reluctant. In addition, the land they rely on for survival is locally. If they move to Shiwan Village, it means that they will lose their land. How will they survive in the future? Although the higher-ups have promised to solve some of the people's jobs, who knows when the mine will no longer be needed? Who will guarantee that? The higher-ups have good intentions, but if they do not put themselves in the position of the people to consider the problem, everything is useless.
Actually, the project was not that big in the beginning. Originally, they had planned to build dozens of small two-story houses to solve the housing problems of some families who are especially difficult. However, Su Qiming was hot-headed and used his butt to determine his thinking. He decided on a thousand-person migration project, doubling the scale and increasing the cost. Lu Yiwei raised his doubts and felt that there was no need to do so. He felt that it was enough to build a model project and solve the problem of a few dozen households. The rest would be solved by the villages and towns themselves. However, Su Qiming did not listen to him. He was crazy about his political achievements and wanted to completely change his image as an official. He completely disregarded practical considerations.
Su Qiming's words changed the direction of the entire project and also changed the original plan.
Lu Yiwei's eyebrows were knitted together. He added another cigarette and said, "Song Yong, we can't afford to delay this matter. If the people are not willing to live here, what's the use of building it? It's better not to build it. How about this, I will go back to the county this morning and report to Secretary Zhang about the situation. However, you have to hurry up. If you really can't do it, you can do some ideological work for each household. "
Before Lu Yiwei took up his post in Shiwan Village, he specifically asked Zhang Zhiyuan to take Song Yong with him. Zhang Zhiyuan agreed without hesitation. Xiao Zhixiong, the director of the Finance Bureau, was very reluctant. However, the red letter had already been issued. What else could he do? He could only reluctantly let Song Yong go.
When he communicated with Song Yong, he clearly expressed that he was not willing to go to the grassroots level. Firstly, he was not familiar with the township work. Secondly, he had just stabilized his position in the Finance Bureau. Now that he had to move, he could not accept it. Lu Yiwei visited him three or four times and finally succeeded in persuading him. According to the division of labor, Song Yong was in charge of all the affairs of the township government and the mobilization of the affected people. Lu Yiwei was in charge of the project planning and design, bidding, and other large-scale affairs. The chairman of the National People's Congress, Gao Dakuan, was in charge of finance and various procedures. However, such a large project could not be completed by just the three of them. But what else could they do?
During this period of time, Song Yong had worn out three pairs of shoes. He was resentful and said, "Didn't we get the CPPCC Chairman Duan Changyun to help? Where is he? He hasn't shown his face yet. It's as if he has nothing to do with it. In my opinion, the county doesn't care about this at all, especially County Yang. We are working hard for him. Why the f * * k are they putting on airs! "
