Canary No. 1 flies directly from Tashkent, Uzbekistan to Dali City. Yang Xi, the governor of Dali Administrative Region, personally went to the airport to greet him. As soon as Chen Jiayong got off the plane, he couldn't wait to say to Yang Xi: "Go directly to Yunlong Tianti Village." Yang Xi said: "I know you are anxious to see your grandson. The car is ready. I will go with you." Su Kai Zeng Qiaoyun also proposed to go together, saying that he wanted to see his cousin. Chen Jiayong: "You can relax a bit. I'll give you a few days off and let's go up the mountain together."
The convoy drove towards Shimen Town, Yunlong County in the southwest. Crossing bridges and tunnels along the way was very smooth. Yang Xihui reported: "The expressways from Dali to Baoshan in the west and Kunming in the east have long been opened to traffic. The roads in the counties in the administrative region have been transformed from the previous second and third-class roads into first-class asphalt roads, making logistics more convenient and smooth." Chen Jiayong praised: "You did a good job!" Yang Xi said: "The foundation laid by Chen Dianyun and other previous senior officers was good. I just added a few more bricks on top." Chen Jiayong said: "The former Yunnan Province was 380,000 square kilometers. Later, it was divided into several administrative regions: Kunming, Dali, Baoshan, Qujing, and Gejiu. The total area has reached 650,000 square kilometers. However, the area has increased, and there are not many good places. We also need to promote Economic development in remote areas. Your Dali Administrative District is located in western Yunnan, and the natural and economic conditions are poor. Don't you blame me for arranging for you to transfer to work here?" Yang Xi smiled and said: "No, I have to thank you. It pushed me onto this work platform. The bigger the gap, the harder we have to catch up. I¡¯m not afraid of working more.¡±
The convoy arrived at Shimen Town, the county seat. Weishan, the new county magistrate, personally led Chen Jiayong on the winding winding mountain road. Weishan also had a double happiness. Not long after he and Hu Xing got married, he was elected as the county magistrate due to his outstanding performance in the construction of Tianti Town. Weishan said: ¡°The winding mountain road is not easy to change, but we have hardened the road surface with cement, slowed down the slope of the curved and dangerous roads, and added barriers. The mileage has increased by 5 kilometers compared with the original, but the road conditions have greatly changed. The vehicle ride up the mountain has been shortened from two hours to one hour, which is much safer and more convenient. Two buses in the town run to the county every hour from 7 am to 8 pm, and the fare is 30 cents. "Everyone enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the mountain, and after a while, they arrived at the Tianti Mountain pass. The newly built Tianti Town bus station on the pass was very lively, with many people waiting for the arrival of the convoy.
Those who greeted Chen Jiayong and others at the station were his in-laws Wei Qingshan and his children, his apprentice and adopted son Wu Sa, the mayor Yang Shushan and the town cadres. Chen Jiayong also saw Wilson, Anderson and Tom in the crowd, as well as Jiazi and his wife. Chen Xiao (born by Zhenzi), Chen Jue (born by Yang Hongsheng), Chen Ming (born by Ye Yuchan), Chen Meng (born by Wu Yun), Shuangshuang and Yuanyuan (born by Fangzi) also came. Chen Jiayong was very happy and talked with everyone As we talked, we walked down the street towards the town.
Rows of brand-new buildings have been built on both sides of the approximately 1-mile mountain stream from the Tianti Mountain pass to Laotianti Village. In the middle is a spacious cement street with flowers planted on both sides. Very refreshing and beautiful. Yang Shushan introduced: "When we got to the pass, it turned out to be a barren slope. We wanted to relocate here, so we raised the area and built it lower. We built houses and connected them to the old village. Remote households in the four villages and Bali and high mountains were relocated one after another. We have settled here. Now there are more than 200 households with more than 6,000 people, which is very lively." Weishan said: "Tianti Town has built 180,000 square meters of residential buildings with reinforced brick and concrete structures, with an average of 30 square meters per person. Most of the houses are on the first floor and have one bottom. The construction cost is 100 Asian dollars per square meter. The national immigration allocation is 10 million yuan. The county raised 5 million yuan itself. The town sent migrant workers to provide relief at a discount of 3 million yuan. Now it is basically completed. "Chen Jiayong said: "Very good!" Yang Xi said: "Uncle, let's go to the town government first, and you and your godmother will go see Chen Qi and his wife first." Chen Jiayong said: "Excuse me!" and hurried away. The Wei family left.
Wei¡¯s mother Wu Kaiyu had been waiting at the gate of the courtyard for a long time. When she saw the old man coming with a large group of people, she hurriedly greeted him. Chen Jiayong said loudly: "My mother-in-law, I see you are here!" Wei's mother said happily: "Come in the house quickly, come in the house quickly!" Chen Jiayong, Huazi, Ye Yuchan and Guizi Natasha entered the yard and went straight to Chen Jiayong Qi's room. Chen Qi was waiting at the door of the room with her child in her arms. When she saw them arriving, she shouted in surprise: "Dad!" and shed tears. Chen Jiayong stepped forward and took the child, saying: "Qi'er, I'm sorry for you!" He lowered his head and looked at his grandson, who was almost two months old. His little face was pink and he was smiling at him. Woolen cloth! An emotion that he had never experienced before suddenly arose in his heart. It was a comfortable and extremely intoxicating feeling - oh, we have become a grandpa! He burst out laughing. Jiazi took the child at the side and said angrily: "Look at your clumsiness, don't scare the child." Jiazi only stayed for 10 days before and after her daughter Chen Qi gave birth, and she just came here a few days ago. I couldn't be more proud of my grandson. Wei's mother said: "The mountains here are high and the air is cold. A woman's confinement period usually lasts two months. There are only a few days until Qi'er and her mother can leave the confinement house." Chen Jiayong said: "Okay, okay! Their mother-in-law Both of them should be raised well!" Wei Qingshan said: "My grandson's name is Wei Xiangnan.The name "Yuntian" was given to him by his father who stayed in Nanyang, and "Xiangnan" also means commemoration. "Everyone was talking together and being affectionate with the children. It was so pleasant.
Wu Sa came over and said, "Abba, the lunch meal is ready, and some guests have arrived." Wei Qingshan hurriedly led Chen Jiayong and his party up to the living room, where four large tables of sumptuous dishes were placed. Wilson, Yang Xi, Weishan, Yang Shushan and others were already sitting at the same table. Wilson said loudly: "Dear captain Chen, I am already an old tenant of your in-laws' family. I won't be polite. If you don't come, I will It¡¯s time to use chopsticks!¡± Chen Jiayong quickly got on the table and said loudly: ¡°Dear brother, don¡¯t do it first, I¡¯m hungry too!¡±
On the table are old bacon stewed with dried potato cubes, pickled cabbage, vermicelli, chicken soup, steamed and stir-fried fresh pork, mutton, fresh mushrooms and other seasonal vegetables. There are also several plates of roasted, stewed and fried game, including muntjac and giant salamander. , snake meat, etc. Chen Jiayong: "Isn't there a wildlife protection law? Why are these second-class protected animals on the table?!" Yang Shushan hurriedly said: "Do we dare to touch the animals on the mountains? These are the products of our wild animal farms. . The county allocated a large area of ??mountainous land for our town, with mountains and water. After we drove away the tigers, leopards and wolves, we quickly surrounded the mountain farm and set up a breeding farm to allow the wild animals to breed on their own. There are 20 employees in the breeding farm. Their tasks are to patrol the mountains and protect the farm, put food for the animals, protect the breeding of animals, and regularly clean up overpopulated animals for sale." Chen Jiayong said: "This is not bad. Is the breeding going well? ?" Yang Shushan said: "Wild animals have no natural enemies in the farms and have plenty of food, so they reproduce very quickly. There are first-level protected animals such as golden monkeys, red pandas, green peacocks, and hornbills. We can't If you touch them, let them come and go; then there are muntjacs, deer deer, musk deer, cat badgers, wild boars, pangolins, pythons, snakes, pheasants, and giant salamanders (giant salamanders) in mountain streams, etc., living and growing on their own. Wild animals are very beautiful , a 5-pound salamander can be sold for 5,000 Asian dollars. Excluding management and feed costs, the annual income of the farm can feed 500 people." Chen Jiayong said: "Wild animals can only be fed by humans. It's semi-wild, but it's not bad. Farms must follow the laws of nature and don't 'fish until the lake is exhausted'."
Everyone was enjoying their meal. Chen Jiayong pointed to the electric stew pot and said, "Wilson, this pot doesn't smell of firewood smoke or gas. I really want to thank you!" Wilson pointed to Anderson and Tom and said, "We have three people to thank. At the hydropower station construction site, Anderson was responsible for road construction, Tom was responsible for mechanical construction, and I was responsible for installation. The first hydropower station donated by our foundation, the Tianti Hydropower Station, has been in full operation and generating electricity for more than three months. You will have to go and see it later. "Chen Jiayong said happily: "Of course I have to go and accept it!"
After lunch, Chen Jiayong and Wilson took a bus to the Tianti Hydropower Station 3 kilometers away. The hydropower station is divided into three levels, with a vertical drop of 25 meters at each level. Five 10,000-kilowatt generating units are installed. The three-level power station generates a total output of 150,000 kilowatts/hour. The electricity consumption of Tianti Town is less than 50,000 kilowatts/hour. , the excess electricity was transported to the county town of Shimen and the thermal power station was connected to the grid. Chen Jiayong rode up to the dam of the first-level power station, and his eyes suddenly lit up: a mountain canyon and lake appeared in front of him. Wilson said to him: "Captain Chen, do you still remember the post-earthquake congested lake that was blown up in the Pianya Mountains? This terrain is almost a replica of that place. I designed a dam height of 125 meters. The water volume reaches 700,000 cubic meters, which is precious white coal energy! The 3 million yuan allocated by our Poverty Alleviation Foundation at that time became the basic investment for the construction of the hydropower station. A total of 12 million yuan has been invested in the power station, and the sold Electricity costs 3 cents per kilowatt hour, and the town¡¯s net income is 25,000 yuan per day based on one-third of the shares discounted from poverty alleviation investment and labor relief. The annual income reaches 4.12 million yuan, and the town¡¯s per capita income is 806 yuan. In two years, the town¡¯s per capita income is 806 yuan. Then we can pay off all the loans for building the website.¡±
Chen Jiayong said to Wilson: "A few days ago, I discussed the matter of hydropower with Zhenying. She strongly praised your small hydropower as a powerful supplement to large hydropower." Wilson said: "Those who know me, Zhenying also ! Large-scale hydropower backbone projects provide powerful key energy sources for the national economy and people's livelihood. A large electric converter for steelmaking consumes tens of thousands of kilowatts of electricity a day. Large hydropower cannot take care of these remote small counties. However, small hydropower still has great potential. Yunlong County alone has built five small hydropower stations with a total installed capacity of 350,000 kilowatts. The output power of the county's thermal power station is only 150,000 kilowatts. After being connected to the grid, the power can be increased three times, and the county's industrial and agricultural electricity consumption can be satisfied. , and also reduces the burden on the national grid.¡±
After coming down from the power station, Chen Jiayong proposed to go to a wild animal farm. Yang Shushan pointed to a large mountain forest in the distance and said: "You can go and have a look, but you must not go in. We only used barbed wire to block the large beasts, but those inside Wild boars, pythons and venomous snakes are difficult to deal with. The 20 employees in our farm were all good hunters before." After hearing this, Huazi firmly opposed going, and Chen Jiayong had no choice but to give up and go to Teng. Bianhe bamboo and wood craft factory, board factory, Chinese medicinal material planting base, pig farmWaiting for inspection. Yang Shushan introduced: "When Weishan County Mayor was the mayor of Tianti Town, he applied for a loan of 15 million yuan and started these small pollution-free enterprises. The production of craft factories and plate factories quickly achieved results, and 5 million yuan has been repaid. The loan mainly provides employment for 500 people. The average monthly salary of workers is about 1,500 yuan, which can support a family of five. The medicinal material base will be ready next year, which will also be a large amount of income. There is also our tourism industry Yes. Our resorts and farmhouses attract no less than a thousand tourists every day and provide employment for 300 people. Everyone in the town¡¯s labor force has something to do, and it also attracts many people from down the mountain to go to the mountains to pan for gold and run shops, hotels and restaurants. , so the population more than doubled than originally planned.¡±
Chen Jiayong randomly went to a villager's home, and a Lisu woman sitting at the door of the courtyard embroidering embroidery hurriedly welcomed them in. The woman is in her 30s and her name is Naido. Chen Jiayong asked: "How many people are there in the family?" Naido said: "There are three old people, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and my own mother. They have two children, a son and a daughter. One is in primary school and the other is in kindergarten. My husband, Le Guo, works in a plate factory." Chen Jiayong asked: "Your family has a large population, with seniors and juniors. Is life difficult?" Naido said, "It's very good. It's much better than before. I used to live in the mountains. We have reclaimed 20 acres of mountainous land, but wild beasts often come to destroy it. We plant extensively and the harvest is poor. There is not enough food to eat. Dimethoate cannot be hunted, so we go out to work. Life is still tight. Now dimethoate can earn 2,000 yuan a month in the town, and three Two elderly people enjoy the old-age allowance, which is 250 yuan per person per month. I can earn 800 yuan per month selling embroidery. If it weren't for taking care of the family and the children, I would have gone to work in the town craft factory." Chen Jiayong said: "It is necessary to take care of the young and old at home. Can't you also take some time to earn some money to support the family?" Naido said: "Yes, we use tap water at home, there is a washing machine for washing clothes, and cooking and boiling water. We can use electric woks, rice cookers and microwave ovens, and the town also subsidizes 1,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per person per month for each household. We no longer have to chop wood and burn fire, so we have more free time."
Weishan said: "In order to promote their products, electrical appliance manufacturers first sent the products to the townspeople for trial use and then paid in installments. The town was also very supportive and encouraged everyone to use electricity and provided subsidies. The auxiliary fuel was liquefied gas tanks. The firewood saved was all It has been comprehensively utilized by the wooden board factory. The county has relocated more than 3,000 households to 6 new immigration towns at an altitude of more than 1,500 meters, and converted more than 120,000 acres of land into forests, further protecting the forest ecology." Chen Jiayong was very happy to hear this. He said to Yang Xi: "It's just like this for one county. If it extends to the entire administrative region and the whole of China, it will be very impressive!"
In the evening, the mayor Yang Shushan hosted a banquet for Chen Jiayong and his party at the largest "Tianti Restaurant" in the town. Chen Qi also came with her baby in her arms. She had not been seen in the past two months. She had taken good care of herself after giving birth. Her skin was fair and beautiful, and she amazed the audience. Everyone enthusiastically congratulated her on the baby, and the scene was very lively. Yang Shushan said: "Tonight we have 5 civil servants in the town, and 31 civil servants from power stations, stations, police stations, telecommunications stations, primary schools, health centers, factories, forest farms, breeding farms, etc. Everyone contributes to chat and prepare some wine. Thank you Director Chen The mayor came to inspect the poverty alleviation project. For our Tianti Town to be what it is today, we must first thank the China Poverty Alleviation Foundation. Without the 3 million yuan poverty alleviation fund to start construction, our Tianti Town would not have changed so quickly. Secondly, we would like to thank the government for its strong support. , allocated 10 million yuan in immigration funds, and the cumulative loans reached 20 million yuan; we also want to thank our good daughter-in-law Chen Qi in our town, who personally donated 500,000 yuan to the construction of the hydropower station, the most beautiful building in the town - ¡ª¡ªOur primary school and kindergarten were built after she donated 200,000 yuan. Everyone followed her example. Those with money contributed money and made strong efforts to promote the construction of the town. Queen Aying of Qatar also invested 1 15 million yuan has been used to build several holiday resorts, which has improved the quality of the town, increased employment for the townspeople, and brought us tourism income. We would also like to thank Brother Wilson for bringing water and electricity engineering design and construction personnel. Your hard work has brought energy and light to our remote mountain village!" After Yang Shushan said this, he bowed deeply to everyone, raised his head, and was already crying.
Deputy mayor Wei Qingshan picked up the wine bowl and said loudly: "Thousands of words of gratitude are in the wine, let's drink together!" Chen Jiayong and the others were almost melted in front of the enthusiasm of the men in the mountains.
Chen Qi¡¯s baby was placed in a small room, held by Wei¡¯s mother and Jia Zi in turns. Chen Qi went to the hall and sat at a table with his brothers and sisters. Wu Sa has been the "chairman" of their table these days. Chen Qi said: "Brother Wu Sa, brothers and sisters, I have to nurse the baby, so I can't drink with you." Wu Sa said: "We all drink juice. ." Chen Qi said: "This summer vacation, Yaomei went to Deng's house in Xiamen, Yuanmei went to her maternal grandfather's house in Mongolia, Brother Long and Brother Tiger were busy writing papers, Brother Eagle and his tutor went to the northwest, and Brother Leopard was fishing on the sea. Yu, it¡¯s inconvenient for my younger brothers and sisters to travel far away. It would be great if they could all come to Tianti Town. Thank you for visiting me during the summer vacation. And Wu Sa, thank you for bringing me so many teaching materials and learning materials. I have almost completed self-study courses until my junior year.Wu Sa said: "Qi Mei, you are the smartest person, of course you can." But it was very difficult to write my graduation thesis. "Chen Qi said: "Then you don't always practice martial arts with dad. Wu Sa said: "Qi Mei, I work very hard and won't be delayed for a few seconds. Don't worry." "
Chen Jiayong came over to sit with his children and said to Chen Qi and the others: "Abba is finished with his official duties. I want to stay in Tianti Town for a few more days to accompany you." Chen Qi was very happy and said: "Abba, Xia Tian It's cool on Tianti Mountain, so you should just take it as a summer vacation here." Chen Jiayong responded repeatedly.
Chen Jiayong¡¯s family lived in the best resort hotel in Tianti Town, and the owner of the hotel was Chen Qi. It turned out that Aying had already regarded Chen Qi as her daughter-in-law in her heart. She learned that Chen Qi was going back to her husband's Tianti Village to give birth to a baby after the Spring Festival. She was very worried, but she couldn't stop it, so she wanted to do something for Qi'er. She invested in Tianti Village through her investment company in China to build a sightseeing ropeway and a resort hotel, and entrusted Chen Qi as the general agent. Of course Chen Qi is very happy that the town can attract foreign investment. The hotel was quickly built and business was booming. Chen Qi accepted the commission and became the general manager of the hotel.
In the evening, Wilson, Anderson and Tom came to talk to Chen Jiayong. Wilson said: "We will leave for the Kyrgyz New District early tomorrow morning. The mountainous areas there are too short of electricity." Chen Jiayong said: "You have done a good job. This Tianti Village It can be regarded as a model of poverty alleviation. Our Poverty Alleviation Foundation has selected the land and cloned it, just like the cloning of Kamang Sanzhai many years ago. It is our wish to make the poor land rich as soon as possible. After you go there, you must use the small towns you built We will focus on hydropower and carry out comprehensive supporting development. To alleviate poverty in one place, we must make another place get rid of poverty and become rich."
The next morning, Yang Xi, Weishan, Wilson, Anderson, Tom and others were all going down the mountain. Chen Jiayong said goodbye to them at Shanyakou Station.
