The two sat separately. Zhao Nanshan threw a cigarette at Guo Zhonghan for the first time and said straight to the point: "Deputy Chief Guo, you must be prepared for a hard fight this time!"
He does not think that without the support of County Magistrate Li Qiming and his wife, Guo Zhonghan will be exiled. This is probably a kind of gilding. When he comes back in the future, he will definitely get a higher responsibility.
"Section Chief, you should call me Xiao Guo, I'm used to it."
Guo Zhonghan smiled and said: "Thank you, section chief. But I am mentally prepared and ready to work hard!"
Zhao Nanshan laughed loudly: "Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers! Yes, this is the spirit we need. What do young people fear?"
Then Zhao Nanshan stopped his smile and said seriously: "Of course, it is good to have this kind of spirit. We can't be defeated by difficulties at the beginning. Moreover, poor places have their own disadvantages, but they are not completely without benefits. The scenery and people are still the same. Very good."
"Hehe, I will take some photos for everyone when I have time for you to see."
Guo Zhonghan smiled, his boss was quite good at comforting people.
"Oh Well."
Zhao Nanshan said: "Besides, this Changtan Village is located deep in the Jiulong Mountains. It is difficult to alleviate poverty there mainly due to two points. One is the location. The arable land area is too small. The average villager can't get two or three points a year. At most, the food can satisfy the needs of food and clothing; another difficulty is that the local mountains are so high that the transportation is really inconvenient. There is only one mountain road into the village, which is barely passable by ordinary cars, and larger ones cannot get in at all..."
Having said this, he seemed a little thirsty. He took a sip of tea and continued: "Moreover, the local infrastructure is very backward. Many villagers basically don't have electricity or anything like that..."
Guo Zhonghan's hometown is in a rural area and he has seen a lot of poverty, but he did not expect that in modern society, there are places that even lack basic things like electricity.
Section Chief Zhao Nanshan was very satisfied with Guo Zhonghan's shocked look and said, "Actually, it's useless for Xiao Guo to worry. On the contrary, the worse the environment, the more things can be changed."
Seeing his eagerness to be a teacher, Guo Zhonghan asked: "Then please ask the section chief for advice."
Zhao Nanshan smiled and said: "On the surface, there are only two, one, Lu, and two electric!"
"Haha, section chief, this task is too heavy."
Guo Zhonghan laughed, this thing cannot be completed by just one or two people.
Section Chief Zhao also smiled, nodded and said: "Yes, everyone's task is very heavy, but it does not happen overnight, and the help comes one after another. After you go to the village, my suggestion is that you should The first thing to do is to get familiar with the local situation, conduct investigations and research, find out the way to get rid of poverty in the village, and provide scientific basis for future assistance from the higher authorities. To say the least, our assistance work relies on your basic research Report, the office will help you next time, and you can quickly find the right direction..."
Guo Zhonghan knew that this was Zhao Nanshan relieving himself of pressure, but it also inspired his inner fighting spirit and made up his mind that he would always do one or two things to benefit the local people.
Otherwise, if you were the same person before the help came, and still the same person after the help, wouldn't you be a dick when you are the village chief?
"Of course, Xiao Guo, let me tell you the truth. Our office has limited funds. If you go this time, the only thing we can support you with is the two diesel generators we left behind, and a little assistance money. …As for the rest, you have to rely on yourself.”
Zhao Nanshan stood up and patted Guo Zhonghan on the shoulder.
Guo Zhonghan also understands the situation in the office. Even if there is excess, it will be used elsewhere. If there are no expectations, there will be no disappointment. He said that he will resolutely implement the spirit of the leaders' instructions.
Next, Director Yu Xiangdong also talked to him.
The car taking Guo Zhonghan stopped briefly in Hotwater Town and then began to enter the mountainous area.
After walking like this for about a mile, the next road became rugged, twisting and turning like a long snake.
Just like that, like riding a roller coaster, the car came to a stop in front of a small building halfway up the mountain.
The town had contacted Changtan Village. Changtan Village Party Secretary Ma Shangshan and several people had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing Guo Zhonghan get off the car, they hurriedly greeted him.
"Are you Section Chief Guo Zhonghan? My name is Ma Shangshan, and I am the Party Secretary of Changtan Village. We will work together from now on!"
Ma Shangshan is a bit old, tall and in his forties.
"I am."
Guo Zhonghan smiled and replied, "Hello, Secretary Ma, please give me your advice in the future."
"Easy to say, easy to say, haha!"
Ma Shangshan smiled brightly.
It was almost lunch time, so a few people had a quick meal here and then continued on their way.
But at this point, the driver who sent Guo Zhonghan back also returned.
During the next journey, Guo Zhonghan finally understood why these people came to pick him up.
This road is so dangerous that you will fall off the cliff if you are not careful.
An hour later, we finally arrived at Changtan Village, the destination of Guo Zhonghan’s poverty alleviation work and his place of employment.
After Guo Zhonghan got off the small three-wheeler, he squatted on the ground for a while before regaining some consciousness.
Paralyzed, he felt like his body was shaking and falling apart along the way.
But what left Guo Zhonghan speechless was that after going through this, guys like Ma Shangshan seemed to be fine, with a cigarette hanging from their mouths and feeling very comfortable.
Just like what Zhao Nanshan said, with mountains, flowing water, and green trees, it’s like a fairyland.
Unfortunately, everywhere you look, many of the villages are close to thatched houses.
When we arrived at the village headquarters, things were much better, but that was all.
Guo Zhonghan thought that the rooms in this village were not much better than the generally better residential rooms in his hometown.
There are a few large cement houses, plus a sign of the Changtan Village Branch Committee of Hotwater Town, which makes them look a bit majestic.
When everyone arrived, a man and a woman were already waiting there.
Ma Shangshan walked towards the two people and said to the woman among them: "Director Liu, this is Section Chief Guo... Haha, I'm a bit biased, let's call him Village Chief Guo! Chief Guo, this is Liu Qinglian, the women's director of our village, you guys Come and recognize me.”
The two exchanged greetings.
After the two met, Ma Shangshan asked Liu Qinglian: "Director Liu, Village Chief Guo is also a little tired along the way. My ex asked you to clean up the place for him to live, are you okay?"
Director Liu Qinglian said with a smile: "It's been done a long time ago. I'll take Village Chief Guo there right now?"
Ma Shangshan looked at Guo Zhonghan and asked: "Village Chief Guo, do you have any other requests? If you have any, feel free to ask. We don't have anything here, but we will do what we can, no problem."
Guo Zhonghan shook his head and said no.
Ma Shangshan then asked Liu Qinglian to take Guo Zhonghan to his residence. Then he pointed to a large bungalow in a mountain col not far away, saying it was his home, and asked Guo Zhonghan to come to his house to find him if anything happened.
