Section 29: The Mountain
Chapter 29 Hulun Mountain
"Hulun Mountain?" I heard the name of this mountain, Zhao Guodong, quite interesting. "How could it be called Hulun Mountain? Where is there a hot spring?"
"Well, Hulun Mountain Li is there. After crossing this beam, it is several miles along the bottom of the valley. There is a large forest of wild jujubes on the mountain. It is said that the idiom allusion of Hulun Swallowing Djujubes comes from this place. There are a series of springs at the foot of the mountain, with cold water springs and many hot springs, all of which are gurgling water in the gaps of stones. The upstream of Xiangxi River originates from there if it is not done well."
Gui Quanyou turned out to be a Chinese teacher at Mashou Middle School, and he was quite knowledgeable about allusions within the Mashou District. "That string of springs stretched intermittently for two or three miles. If it weren't for the geographical location too far, and it was in a valley at the foot of Hulun Mountain, there was no need to worry about developing paddy fields irrigation."
"Lao Gui, isn't it a little extravagant to use spring water to irrigate the fields? Why can't we use hot springs to let outsiders soak in hot springs and earn money from those who come to irrigate in hot springs?" Zhao Guodong asked back.
"County Magistrate Zhao, this is easy to say. He went into this Qilin Temple, this road. It has been so many years since the good men and women from all over the country donated money to slowly cushion the foundation. It was only last year that the car could come in? The Hulun Mountain could not pass through the horse's head, so he had to go around our Qilin Temple. There were still a few miles of land. Who would have built this road just for a few springs? The wild dates in the wild date forest tasted average. With a story of swallowing the whole, can people go thousands of miles to buy this date?" Gui Quanyou shook his head repeatedly.
Zhao Guodong nodded thoughtfully, "What is the scenery on Hulun Mountain? Is there anything worth seeing?"
"Hulun Mountain has been closed for a few years. In addition to a large wild jujube forest, there are many well-preserved forests on it. However, the area outside was cut down from the outside. Some trees were replanted when the mountains were closed and trees were planted a few years ago. Now they should be full of vegetation. When I was still in the district, I planted trees there. There were some valleys, waterfalls and streams on the mountain, and there were many animals. However, it was really difficult to walk on the road to the mountain. Last year, someone went up the mountain to poach and broke his leg. Later, he was arrested by the Forestry Bureau Public Security Bureau. He was only locked up after being sent to the district health center for treatment."
Wang Erkai interrupted with a smile, "What, if County Magistrate Zhao is interested, we will go for a walk this afternoon. There is a pool on the top of the mountain called Hanshui Pond. The water surface is about 100 acres, and the water is clear and clear, but in fact it is more than ten or twenty meters deep. People will be frozen for half an hour in the summer. When you sit by the pool in hot weather, you can feel the cold air pouring into your heart. If you are almost in good health, you have to add a coat."
"Oh, there is such a Feng Shui treasure land? Isn't that a summer resort in summer?" Zhao Guodong became more and more interested.
"Summer resort? There is nothing wrong with people on it. Apart from secretly climbing the mountain to chop firewood and poaching, who can go there without any trouble? The road is blocked and there is also a scenic spot. Isn't this a shabby person?" Wang Erkai laughed.
Zhao Guodong didn't laugh.
This Qilin Temple is quite large in scale and has a very popular incense. If it can be determined as a formal and legal religious activity venue, its status will change suddenly and the government can also openly participate in the development. Especially in addition to the architecture of this Qilin Temple, this Qilin Temple also has excellent taste of jasper milk wine and mountain kimchi, and it is also a unique Qilin Temple made of various mountain vegetables. If it is famous, it can completely attract many tourists from other places who are not good men and women to come here to play.
The only regret is that the Hualin seems to have less attention. Now I hear this Hulun Mountain and a series of hot springs, as well as this cold pool and a large area of primeval forest. This is simply born with Qilin Temple. With the widely circulated idiom allusion, the two scenic spots are built together in one place and then promoted and promoted. The prospects are quite optimistic. At least it can become a major tourist highlight of Hualin, which is very beneficial for attracting investment and driving local farmers to get rich.
"Old Wang, I think so. Today we are visiting this experimental base, so we won't go to Hulunshan. Another day I will go back to talk to County Mayor Xin and call your district secretary He and the leaders of Mashou Town together to sum up the scenic spots on this line. Although this is not a big deal in the eyes of local people, it is very different in the eyes of outsiders, especially outside urban residents. As people's living standards continue to improve, especially urban residents' pockets gradually become rich, the tourism industry will inevitably become an emerging industry. How to fully develop and utilize the tourism resources in the region is a topic that needs to be carefully studied, and we have to make a long-term plan."
After saying this, Zhao Guodong still felt a little unsatisfied. He could see that both Wang Erkai and You Mingfu were a little dissatisfied with his views. Instead, Gui Quanyou's eyes flashed and seemed to be a little concerned.
But then again, we need to let them feel that the tourism industry has driven the economic development of a place too high. However, although this subtle development does not seem to increase much for the GDP figures of a place, it is obvious for local farmers to increase their income.
"This is OK. We are waiting for County Mayor Zhao's call." Wang Erkai responded with a smile.
"Let's go, I really saw a little bit today. County Mayor Luo said that Qushui Township in Xinping District and Tailing Township in Taihe District are both good. I have to try to finish all the trip this afternoon. I have a preliminary impression and then I can give advice to the experts and professors." Zhao Guodong walked to the car surrounded by people.
"Lao Wang, your Qilin Township is doing well, but the basic conditions are a little worse. Well, you and Lao Gui have to start some preliminary work. The road from the county town to Hekou will be built sooner or later, and it will not take too long. You can start the people first and do the preliminary work of planning along the line, so that once the plan is completed, you can push it out immediately. I just want to leak a wind with you here, and I guess the county may hold a working meeting on traffic construction immediately. Although the road from the county town to Xinping is the top priority, the road from Hekou to the county town is also very important. This is the aorta for improving the traffic conditions in the southern part of Hualin and promoting economic development. It must be opened."
Wang Erkai and Gui Quanyou's eyes lit up, "County Magistrate Zhao, what you said is true? We heard that the road from Xinping to the county town is going to be built, but the southern line to Hekou has never been mentioned in the county."
"Didn't you listen to me now? The northern line must first be solved. It is the throat of our Hualin and the region and the province, but the southern line must also be solved, and it must be solved as soon as possible. This is related to the development of nine townships in the two districts and nine townships in the southern part of our Hualin and the development of more than 200,000 people from poverty and prosperity. Since I was placed in Hualin and in charge of transportation, I have to solve these two things no matter what." Zhao Guodong's words firmly affirmed.
"County Magistrate Zhao, if we really want to build a road from the county town to Hekou, our Qilin Township needs people to come out, and we need people to come out,..."
"Just no money?" Zhao Guodong asked with a smile and interrupted Wang Erkai's determination.
"Hehe, County Magistrate Zhao, you also know that the finances of the townships below are really too difficult now. Just look at what cigarettes are smoked by us town secretaries and township chiefs. The bag of Ashima in the bag is still bought temporarily. Usually, Lao Gui and I both have white-shelled red plums or camellias, which are all pretty good. County Magistrate Zhao, the township secretaries and township chiefs on the edge of the provincial capital are not as shabby as us?" Wang Erkai said with a wry smile.
"Everything is fine, but money is not intimate. Our village is racking our brains to collect agricultural taxes, water conservancy fees and double levies? The county is pushing it tightly. Village cadres have to pay wages, so they all have to pay a penny from the farmers. To put it bluntly, they are just as debt-to-debt as Huang Shiren. They are all fellow villagers in the village. Who would like to do this? But when we become this cadre, we can only do this with a bit of a bullet." Gui Quanyou sighed, "Now the harvest in the fields is good, the price of grain is low. When the price is high, the harvest will definitely be bad. It is not easy for ordinary people to make two money. We don't want it, but we can't do it."
"Now, young and middle-aged people in the village can either go out to work far away, but they can't get home for a year or two. When they are busy with farming, their families are very annoyed. And when they come back, they have to consume a lot of round-trip fares. However, when they stay at home, they can't find work. They stay at home all day and have nothing to do except playing cards and gambling. There is no better solution to the security problems brought by us." Wang Erkai also packed up the cynical expression on his face and said with emotion.
Zhao Guodong also knew that this was the most prominent problem in rural areas. After Xiaochun every year, it was the best time to collect agricultural taxes, water conservancy fees and double withdrawals. The farmers' income this season was basically to pay for these. It can be said that if they don't go out to work or have no way to do side jobs at home, they will only get full in the year, and it will be extremely difficult to save two money.
It’s no wonder that the girls in the county party committee guesthouse cherish a job so much. After all, this job can always get a cash payment of one or two hundred yuan on time, except for eating. It’s no wonder how many times better than the parents who work hard all day long at home.
