Chapter 56 Applying for Road Repair Funds and Recommending Talent
In the deputy county head's office, Qi Tongwei was reporting to Huang Jinshu, the deputy county head in charge of transportation.
"County Chief Huang, our Gushanling Township is planning to repair the road from the township to the county seat. Could the county provide some funding?"
You know that road; it's rugged, full of potholes, and can make you bounce around like a ball when a car passes by.
Our Gushanling Township is too poor; we can't afford to repair the roads.
Qi Tongwei said that a reasonable explanation is required to apply for funding.
"Comrade Qi Tongwei, if your township needs road repairs, just go to the Transportation Bureau, and they will make the arrangements."
Huang Jinshu said that too many towns and villages had asked him for money to repair roads, but the county was not wealthy and he did not have the money to give them.
The roads in Gushanling Township are indeed in very poor condition, but Gushanling Township is not the only township in Yantaishan County with poor road conditions.
Once funds are given to Gushanling Township, other townships will also come asking for funds.
"County Chief Huang, please help us. Our township really needs the county's help to repair this road."
With the road repaired, the road conditions have improved, and more cars will be going to our township.
Our township can also develop better, easing some of the burden on the county.
Qi Tongwei did not give up. He knew that you had to be shameless to ask your superiors for funds, otherwise you would never get any money.
"If it doesn't work this year, we'll see next year. The county's funds are all planned and can't be touched randomly."
Moreover, the county doesn't have much money.
Golden Tree continued to refuse, as the county's funds had already been planned when the budget was made at the beginning of the year.
Yantaishan is a backward and poor area.
Having gotten no results from Huang Jinshu, the deputy county head in charge of transportation, Qi Tongwei then went to the county head's desk.
"County Head, Gushanling Township is planning to repair the road connecting the township to the county seat. Could the county provide some funding?"
Qi Tongwei stood in front of County Head Lei Yaohua and said.
"Comrade Qi Tongwei, you can just talk to Deputy County Head Huang Jinshu about this. He's in charge of transportation."
Lei Yaohua said, "Why does the government have so many leaders and why are there divisions of labor? Isn't it to better handle various matters?"
“Deputy County Head Huang said there’s no budget left, so I’ve come to you to ask for some donations.”
Qi Tongwei said with a smile that no matter what the reason was for Deputy County Chief Huang Jinshu's refusal to help him, he could not speak ill of him in front of the county chief.
However, Qi Tongwei could tell that Deputy County Head Huang Jinshu didn't want to help him.
Repairing a road is not like building a new road; it doesn't require too much funding.
If Deputy County Head Huang Jinshu wants to help, a few thousand yuan would be acceptable.
As a deputy county head, he should be able to allocate several thousand yuan.
"I'll see if I can allocate some money to your township, and your township should also try to raise some funds."
"Since you're going to repair it, repair it properly. I'll check it later."
After thinking about it, Lei Yaohua decided to help Gushanling Township.
The reason why Gushanling Township has not developed in recent years is largely due to the poor condition of the road connecting the township to the county seat.
Now that I've allocated the money, this road must be properly repaired.
"Okay, thank you, County Head. Welcome to our township for guidance!"
Qi Tongwei said excitedly that he thought the county magistrate would also refuse, but he did not expect that the county magistrate would actually agree to give him some funds.
It's normal for the county head to make demands. If the county head actually goes to inspect, it will be a good thing for Qi Tongwei and Gushanling Township.
This proves that he and Gushanling Township are valued by the county head.
"Comrade Qi Tongwei, your township has a large area and a large population, so it's not easy to develop."
But it is precisely because it is not easy that it requires even more effort from your township leaders.
Since you are in charge of industry and commerce, you need to think more about how to develop your area first and how to discover industries in your township.
"The vegetable farming idea you came up with last year is a great example; it helped increase the income of the people in your village."
Lei Yaohua said that Qi Tongwei was a capable comrade and he had high hopes for him.
"Yes, County Head, I will definitely follow your instructions strictly."
My road repairs are also preparation for the development of industries in our township.
Qi Tongwei immediately stated that he was not afraid of his superiors making demands of him, but rather afraid that they would not want to talk to him.
"By the way, how's vegetable planting going in your township this year?"
The scale of vegetable cultivation in your township this year is quite large.
Lei Yao asked, "The problem with vegetable cultivation isn't cultivation itself, but sales."
After all, the more than 8 people in Gushanling Township cannot possibly eat all the vegetables grown on thousands of acres of land.
"Thank you for the county head's concern. Our vegetable planting is going quite smoothly, and our sales channels have expanded from the county seat to the city."
However, the promotion in the city did not go very smoothly.
In addition, we would like to join the "vegetable basket project".
Could the county government offer some assistance?
Qi Tongwei gave a brief report on the vegetable planting situation and then raised the difficulties.
"Okay, I'll have someone keep an eye on it!"
Lei Yaohua said that Gushanling Township has found its own path to development, so the county should naturally provide some support.
After leaving the county head's office, Qi Tongwei went to the secretary's office to report his thoughts.
It wouldn't be right for him not to report his thoughts for a long time, but he didn't want to report to Wan Jia first, so he could only report to Jin Yang, the county party secretary.
After reporting his thoughts, Qi Tongwei went to the Organization Department to report his work to Luo Chengcai.
The Organization Department is like a cadre's home; they should come back often.
Qi Tongwei is now a county-level cadre, so there's nothing wrong with him frequently visiting the Organization Department.
"Tongwei, which comrades in your township do you think are suitable for taking on more responsibilities?"
After Qi Tongwei finished reporting his work, Luo Cheng asked.
The county is preparing to expand the party and government leadership team of Gushanling Township, and the organization department needs to find out in advance which cadres can be promoted.
Considering that people from county-level units are unwilling to go to Gushanling Township, the expanded staff may need to be promoted from within Gushanling Township.
"Minister Luo, then I'll just say whatever comes to mind."
There are many comrades in our township who can take on more responsibilities.
Based on seniority, the order should be: Propaganda Committee Member Tang Yuntian, United Front Work Committee Member Yang Wanhang, Political and Legal Affairs Committee Member Pu Yilin, and Party and Government Office Director Huang Youqian.
In terms of ability, Organization Committee member Yan Shihai, Finance Office Director Xiao Dajun, and Civil Affairs Office Director Zhao Changshan are all quite good.
Qi Tongwei said that Luo Chengcai asked him, and he gave him a reference, but the specific choice was up to Luo Chengcai.
Of course, Luo Cheng's choice may not be considered valid, since the Organization Department needs to solicit the opinions of each Standing Committee member for every personnel change.
The final list must be approved by the Party Secretary before it can be discussed at the Standing Committee meeting.
However, what Gushanling Township needs now is capable people, not people with seniority.
Luo Chengcai's problems also made Qi Tongwei feel the crisis.
The county is going to expand the party and government leadership team of Gushanling Township.
The Party Committee should be expanded by two people, from five to seven, in order to comply with regulations.
The government leadership team may only be increased by one person, since the current government team already has one chairman and three deputy chairmen. Adding one more person would make it one chairman and four deputy chairmen.
It is also possible that the Party Committee leadership will increase by four people, from five to nine, and the government leadership will increase by two people, becoming one chairman and five vice chairmen.
After all, the area and population of Gushanling Township are what they are.
This also means that Qi Tongwei needs to produce results as soon as possible, otherwise it will be impossible for him to enter the Party Committee.
"You little brat, I asked you to recommend someone, and you gave me a multiple-choice question."
Luo Chengcai criticized.
Propaganda Committee Member Tang Yuntian, United Front Work Committee Member Yang Wanhang, Political and Legal Affairs Committee Member Pu Yilin, and Party and Government Office Director Huang Youqian are definitely from Propaganda Minister Xiong Guangrong's side.
During the last personnel change in Gushanling Township, the propaganda minister, Xiong Guangrong, recommended Jiang Yunsheng, the former organization committee member and now the deputy township head, and Huang Youqian, the director of the party and government office.
At the time, Propaganda Minister Xiong Guangrong and Deputy Secretary Miao Yuanfang wanted Jiang Yunsheng to succeed as Deputy Secretary, but the proposal was not approved, and he was only promoted to Deputy Township Head.
This time, they probably want to promote Huang Youqian and the others.
But that's impossible. The Party Secretary and the County Head can't give all the positions to Xiong Guangrong and Miao Yuanfang's people; they also need to make arrangements for their own people.
In Qi Tongwei's view, propaganda committee member Tang Yuntian, united front committee member Yang Wanhang, political and legal committee member Pu Yilin, and party and government office director Huang Youqian are all unsuitable for family affairs.
Because he only mentioned seniority, not ability.
Qi Tongwei recommended Yan Shihai, the organization committee member; Xiao Dajun, the director of the finance office; and Zhao Changshan, the director of the civil affairs office.
In Qi Tongwei's view, these are the people that Gushanling Township needs.
