Excellent little farmer

It is said that one is not in one's position and one does not seek political advice. Now that he has sat in this position, he has no hesitation in doing something for this natural disaster that has caused huge harm to the land of China.

"Xiaolan, I don't mean to criticize you. From a common sense point of view, what you did is right, but this time it is a little different." I cleared my throat to organize my thoughts and see how I could find a suitable reason. .

"The last time I went to Beijing, I went to the Ministry of Water Resources to visit Minister Yang, who was the former Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. He is now the Minister of Water Resources. I talked with him about this year's climate. According to the judgment of several well-known experts from the Ministry of Water Resources, the climate this year will be The Yangtze River and Songhua River basins will experience the most severe extreme weather conditions since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it is very likely that heavy rains and floods will hit the Yangtze River basin.

Huaian is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Wujiang River, an important tributary of the Yangtze River, and is the confluence area of ​​many rivers. Once extreme weather occurs and our river embankment projects are not fully prepared, it may cause serious damage to the country. and people's lives and property, causing huge losses. At that time, we will become historical sinners! "

Wei Xiaolan was taken aback, looked at my serious face, and felt that the other party didn't seem to be talking nonsense, so she said cautiously: "Secretary Ye, in this case, why don't you formally raise it at the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee? This can also cause problems. The city is on high alert, carrying out all-round investigation of dangers, and improving embankment facilities! And this is not just a problem in Huai'an. The entire province, and even the entire Yangtze River Basin and Songhua River Basin, should be on high alert. "

I made a sad and wry smile, shook my head, and said: "Xiaolan, the news I learned is not official official news, and those well-known experts only made an opinion based on some experience and knowledge. The prediction and judgment lacked sufficient meteorological basis to support it. Therefore, this prediction also caused some controversy in the Ministry of Water Resources and was not officially notified to the local government. After all, once this kind of news is released as official news, it may have a negative impact on the local government. It has had a huge impact on society, and without definite evidence, the government can only strengthen the inspection and consolidation of the river flood control system in accordance with normal preventive measures."

"So that's it. It's just Secretary Ye. Do you think the predictions of those experts are very reliable?"

Wei Xiaolan still didn't understand. In this case, why should I move around so nervously? This reaction was a bit too extreme.

"It's hard to say, but my personal opinion is quite high, and to be honest, the water conservancy infrastructure in our Huai'an area is generally weak, especially the management and protection of flood control facilities. This makes me very worried. There are some things I would rather believe. It does exist, but I don’t believe it doesn’t exist. I would rather spend more money to prepare for a rainy day. Anyway, these water conservancy infrastructure also need investment, that is, we just need to take the first step. If that kind of thing really happens, then we have fulfilled our responsibilities and it did not happen. This is better, even if we are too cautious." I sighed.

Wei Xiaolan was silent for a while. It was a bit difficult for her to do. Although Xijiang District's finances are the best among the nine counties in the city, compared with other economically developed cities and counties, it is still not worth mentioning. The large investment in water conservancy facilities, It will inevitably affect the funding arrangements for other projects.

This is the Wujiang River bank dam improvement and reinforcement project. Although I persuaded the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau to provide part of the funds based on my personal reputation, the district still helped a lot, which also aroused the dissatisfaction of Zeng Lingchun and He Tong.

He Tong was better off. After all, he knew that I had said hello in person, so he didn't dare to object openly. But Zeng Lingchun was different. He had a different relationship with me. He dared to openly bring up and argue with me on many matters, and got Wei Xiaolan under his wing. It's extremely difficult to do in it.

If it were anyone else, someone would definitely wonder if I wanted to get a bit dirty with this project, but Wei Xiaolan knew that apart from paying attention to the progress of the project, I didn't care about anything else. Everything from the project contracting to the commencement of construction. Wei Xiaolan is responsible for arranging, organizing and implementing everything.

Seeing that Wei Xiaolan didn't say anything, I also knew that she had her own difficulties, but other things were easy to talk about, but there was no concession to be made on this matter. I would rather bear the name of Gan Gang's arbitrariness than have to do it.

I also know that Zeng Lingchun is very dissatisfied with this matter. After all, the government budget has been arranged long ago. I have invested so much in water conservancy all at once, which far exceeds the budget. Of course he cannot do it as the district mayor. I agreed, even if I had changed the position I was sitting in, I still couldn't agree.

"Xiaolan, how is the inspection status of the Yuexiu River's bank embankments?"

Wei Xiaolan sighed and said with a wry smile: "Secretary Ye, the situation of the Yuexiu River embankment is no different from usual. The general flood situation will not affect anything. We have even done some daily renovations, but it is really as you said. In such extremely bad weather, there must be problems with the Yuexiu River Embankment.

However, if the Yuexiu River Embankment needs to be fully renovated, firstly, the time is very tight. Secondly, the capital expenditure may be quite large. According to the usual practice, the Yuexiu River Embankment has always been borne by the district finance, but there is no way to go to the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau. Alms, this area really needs to be raised and reinforced according to the standards you mentioned, which will cost at least tens or millions of dollars. I personally think it is not necessary, really, and it is very likely to replace You have created unwarranted suspicions. "

I was silent.

I also know that the Wujiang embankment renovation project alone has attracted some skepticism. It is supposed to be a city project, but the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau is not angry. Why are you in Xijiang District so excited? Now if the Yuexiu River embankment risk relief and reinforcement project that everyone thinks is unnecessary is pushed forward, I guess the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and even the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection will have to keep a close eye on me, wondering if I want to make some articles or play in it. It's annoying.

"Xiaolan, I know you all think I'm a little neurotic. After all, the experts and scholars from the Ministry of Water Resources have not been able to give an official opinion. But I looked at the topography of our Xijiang District. Yuexiu River and Wujiang River form the main core of our Xijiang District. All areas are included in the middle. Whether it is the Wujiang embankment or the Yuexiu River embankment, it is a devastating disaster for us in Xijiang District, and it is also an unbearable disaster for Huai'an City.

Therefore, I would rather bear the reputation of disregarding science or making blind decisions, but I must push this project forward. I hope you can support my opinions at the Standing Committee meeting tomorrow. "

According to the procedure, large expenditures of government functional departments need to be proposed by the leaders in charge at the district government office meeting, and then submitted to the district committee standing committee for decision after consideration. As a member of the district committee standing committee, the deputy district chief has the right to make decisions if he fails to do so. Matters approved by the district government office meeting are directly raised at the district committee standing committee, but this requires taking some risks, that is, the district mayor may be offended.

My implication is undoubtedly that I hope Wei Xiaolan can raise this issue that sparked controversy in April at the District Committee Standing Committee.

Wei Xiaolan took a deep breath, looked at me, and said with some difficulty: "Secretary Ye, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. I think the Yuexiu River embankment is in good condition and can withstand a flood that occurs once in thirty years. There is science in this." Basis. Further demands for heightening and reinforcement are overkill.

Unless... Secretary Ye, you can provide precise and reliable evidence to prove that this year the Yuexiu River will encounter a flood that has not been seen in fifty years or even a hundred years. Although I am not in charge of finance, if financial funds are invested in this project, at least for now, I don’t think it is very appropriate. "

Wei Xiaolan almost politely rejected my proposal, which made me a little surprised and a little relieved. At least this person is not the kind of person who bows his head because of power. He has some character. My own suggestion is a bit overwhelming. , if you want to open the gap, you have to start from Zeng Lingchun.

"Xiaolan, in this case, I will talk to District Chief Zeng and He Tong, what do you think?" After thinking about it, I put forward a compromise suggestion.

After Wei Xiaolan said the words, he also regretted a little and was worried that I would become angry. However, the other party did not seem to be angered by his words, and he made such a suggestion quite understandingly. This made Wei Xiaolan a little moved, nodded, and said: "Ye Secretary, it’s not that I don’t support you, it’s just that the project you proposed is a bit unbelievable. If you can convince District Director Zeng and District Director He that they think there is no problem with financial funds, then of course I have nothing to say.”

"Xiaolan! Your temperament is really unique."

I laughed, and my face looked much better. I waved my hand and said, "If someone were to stand in my position, I would inevitably have to wear your little shoes."

"Secretary Ye, I know who you are, that's why I dare to say this. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't say this. Even if you kill me, I won't say it. That's it. You can do whatever you want." Wei Xiaolan said in her heart He was also relieved, with a happy smile on his face.
