Resource Tycoon Reborn

After entering mid-June, the highest daytime temperature in Qinxi Province rose rapidly, with high temperatures of 33 to 4 degrees for many days in a row. Moreover, since the beginning of June, except for two sporadic rains, the ground has not even gotten wet.

Except for light rain, there is no decent precipitation. And this spring, the precipitation is nearly 10% lower than the average level for the same period in previous years.

Qinxi Province is located in the hinterland and has a continental climate. There are also many rivers in Qinxi Province, as well as the Yellow River, the mother river of China. However, due to historical over-exploitation, global climate change, and economic

It is a province where water resources are scarce and unevenly distributed in time and space. The average annual precipitation here is less than 700 millimeters, and the water resources per capita and per mu are only about half of the national average, of which 100%

Seventy percent of the precipitation is concentrated in the flood season, and 70% of the water resources are concentrated in Qinnan. However, the land in the central and northern regions accounts for two-thirds of the province, and the population accounts for 8% of the province.

If it is more than ten, it can be said to be a province that is extremely short of water.

This year, God has failed, and precipitation has dropped significantly. Signs of drought have appeared in some places in the northern and central parts of Qinxi Province.

Fang Mingyuan and Su Aijun stood at the top of a hill in Tongchuan District and looked at the community below. In fact, it is a hilltop, but in fact it is flat land in the actual sense. The urban construction in Tongchuan District is carried out along both sides of the river, and the geology of the Loess Plateau

, so that the river is actually in the valley. However, large areas of farmland can be seen on the "mountain".

"The snowfall in winter has only reached the average level of previous years. The precipitation in spring is nearly 10% less than the average level for the same period in previous years. There has been no decent precipitation since summer. There is not much water in the rivers and the soil is somewhat short of water.

." Su Aijun said worriedly, "If the summer precipitation still fails to reach the average level in previous years, it is estimated that agricultural production in the central and northern regions will decrease this year." Although the secondary and tertiary industries in Qinxi Province have been booming in recent years, and

In 2008, Qinxi Province's total GDP ranked 13th in the country and officially entered China's "Trillion Province Club". However, agriculture still occupies an important position in the provincial economy and absorbs a large number of working people.

.

Fang Mingyuan also sighed. It wasn't going to rain that day, and there wasn't even the technical conditions to increase the rain. What could humans do? Man can conquer the sky? Haha, it depends on what kind of weather it is, right? If you are ruthless to God... it would be nice to leave a way to survive.

.

"The economic development of Tongchuan District has been very good in recent years. The water has become clearer, the mountains have become greener, and GDP has also increased significantly. It seems that the province's decision to merge Tongchuan into Tongyi was a correct decision, and it was not in vain.

The provincial leaders have put a lot of effort into this." Su Aijun smiled and said, "If other cities in the province could be like Tongyi, I would have less to worry about."

"Does Uncle Su want to put a burden on Tongyi again?" Fang Mingyuan looked at Su Aijun with a half-smile and said, "Tongyi has been digesting Tongchuan District for many years. It has only been in the past two years that some results have been achieved. No longer

It's just the city that's holding us back. If you move to another county, if Bicheng's is better, if it's Weinan or Holy Land, Uncle Zhao may lose five years of his life." In fact, as early as 2007 or 2008,

At that time, he heard some rumors. Some leaders in the province believed that Tongyi's land area was too small, but its economy was among the top in the province. Its administrative divisions should be readjusted and part of the land in neighboring cities should be included in Tongyi. In this way,

It can also enable more people to share the benefits brought by Tongyi’s economic development.

As for the cities surrounding Tongyi, it is naturally impossible for Fengyuan to transfer its jurisdiction to Tongyi, so only Bicheng, Weinan and Shengdi City are left. As for the areas adjacent to Tongyi, except for

Bicheng City is pretty good. Weinan and Shengdi are both national-level or provincial-level poverty-stricken counties. Every year, the county finance must rely on subsidies from the higher-level government to operate normally. This is because of Tongyi's economy.

The rise of the city can be said to have driven the economic development of the two cities to a great extent.

"Don't you want to build the Fengtong urban agglomeration? The development of Bicheng and Weinan is also an important factor related to whether the entire urban agglomeration can be established." Su Aijun asked with a smile, "Actually, you don't have to do this. If you want

It is not easy to adjust the administrative divisions. Unlike Tongchuan, the superiors were able to agree to the adjustment. On the one hand, the attitude of the province was very firm, and on the other hand, the superiors hoped to learn from it and hoped that Tongyi could go there.

To find a way to solve the problem of resource-depleted cities like Tongchuan. Although the development experience of Tongchuan District is not easy to copy, it still provides a lot of important experience. Haha, speaking of experience, the development of Tongyi

But it has given the province a lot of important inspiration, especially in terms of water conservation and pollution control."

Since the beginning of construction, Tongyi has attached great importance to sewage treatment and water recycling. Today, Tongyi's industrial sewage treatment can reach more than 95%, and domestic sewage treatment can reach more than 90%.

Or because there are still many towns and villages in Tongyi. Due to insufficient population concentration, comprehensive coverage of domestic sewage treatment has not been achieved. Some of these treated sewage are discharged back to the river, and some are recycled.

, part of it enters the gray water pipeline and is used to meet toilet flushing, garden and farmland irrigation, road cleaning, car washing, urban fountains, and cooling equipment supplementary water.

At the same time, Tongyi also attaches great importance to water conservation. It not only increases various water conservation publicity, but also vigorously promotes it through a series of measures. First, it implements stepped water prices in Tongyi City, and at the same time, whether it is the construction of new cities or old cities,

The use of water-saving appliances is being promoted in large numbers during renovations. To this end, the municipal government has given a large amount of subsidies to encourage citizens to proactively choose and switch to water-saving appliances. The communities built by Longxing Construction Group Company are even more

Water-saving appliances have been fully used from the beginning. Moreover, Tongyi’s municipal construction also attaches great importance to the quality of various pipelines. Although this has caused a slight increase in the amount of investment, it has effectively controlled water leakage in the pipelines.

Leakage and subsequent maintenance and repair costs.

Water saving is not only reflected in domestic water, but also in industrial water. Enterprises in Tongyi's jurisdiction have introduced a large number of industrial water-saving equipment, adopted water-saving production methods and recycled wastewater, which can reduce industrial water use by nearly 10%.

Twenty, the water reuse rate remains above 80%. For those large water consumers, Tong should introduce less water, or even not introduce it at all.

According to incomplete statistics from the relevant departments of Tongyi, various means have been used to ensure Tongyi's economy over the years. While the population has grown rapidly, water consumption has only increased less than ten times compared with when Tongyi approved the establishment of the special zone. It is completely

Out of proportion.

After Li Dongxing became the mayor of Fengyuan, he also vigorously promoted water conservation and sewage treatment in Fengyuan City. However, due to various reasons, the results were not as significant as Tongyi. But compared with other cities of the same size inside and outside the province , but it is already at the forefront of the country and has effectively alleviated the water shortage situation in Fengyuan.

After Su Aijun became the governor, he also vigorously promoted water conservation and sewage treatment throughout the province, especially in the central and northern regions. However, judging from the current results, due to the constraints of economic level and local financial resources, the promotion in these cities has been limited. The process is unsatisfactory.

"Actually, Tongyi's water consumption may start to decline in the next few years." Fang Mingyuan said.

"Are you talking about promoting drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation technology in Tongyi?" Su Aijun said, "I know these are two advanced water-saving irrigation technologies. But the initial cost is too high." He knew that now in the province, In the use of water resources, agriculture can be said to account for the largest share, accounting for almost 70%! However, the domestic water use of urban and rural residents, even if they are all added together, does not reach 13% !So, even a few percent savings in agricultural water use can significantly alleviate urban water shortages.

"What Uncle Su said is that the biggest problem in promoting drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation technology is that the initial cost is too high. If you plant ordinary crops, the profit is too low based on the current market price. Therefore, these two technologies are only suitable for planting high-added crops. Fortunately, there are two big cities, Tongyi and Fengyuan, so the high value-added cash crops planted in the future will not have to worry about sales." Fang Mingyuan said.

"In other words, Tongyi's grain output will decline significantly in the future." Su Aijun frowned slightly.

"Well, it is indeed like what you said, Uncle Su. Tongyi's grain output will gradually decrease in the future, and it will need to be purchased in large quantities from other places." Fang Mingyuan nodded and said, "I personally think that this will be a trend in the future. The closer to the city, of course it is to a city of a certain size, the smaller the proportion of farmland around it will be used to grow low value-added crops. Now is the era of globalization. We don’t talk about purchasing food from overseas. It is not surprising that people in Pengcheng eat rice from Longjiang Province. People have division of labor, cities have division of labor, why can't various regions and provinces have division of labor? Those regions and provinces with good natural environment and abundant water resources should vigorously develop Agriculture is what it should be.”

"It is difficult to get rich in agriculture, farmers live in poverty, and there is no money in the local area. Who doesn't want to live a prosperous life?" Su Aijun shook his head.

"Uncle Su, it is difficult to get rich in agriculture. Farmers live in poverty and there is no money in the local area. This is a fact. But is it an international phenomenon? Farmers in developed countries have a higher living standard than many of our urban residents. The domestic population is not poor! In the final analysis, it is still a matter of system and efficiency. If Tongyi completely abandons agriculture, of course this is impossible in reality. It is just a metaphor. Then it can accommodate more than twice the population. There is no problem at all. And this twice the population is enough to accommodate the entire population of Shengdi City and Bicheng City, and there may be some leftover. How much land will be freed up at once?" Fang Mingyuan said, "Industry will be fully developed in various places. It is unrealistic. Moreover, I think it is inappropriate to use GDP to assess the performance of officials at present. Conditions vary from place to place. Some places have large land areas, large populations, good natural conditions, and are close to the sea and rivers; It is small and mountainous, neither close to the sea nor a river, and has a small population. Is there any comparability between the two places? It is better to compare the per capita income and living standards. At least this will be more fair."

Su Aijun shook his head with a wry smile. This is easier said than done. To achieve this goal, we have too many shortcomings. Especially among the agricultural population, there is generally a low level of education and poor livelihood skills.

They have little money, their family savings are not high, and there is not enough pension and medical protection. If they leave the land and enter the city, many people will not be able to adapt at all, and they will not be able to guarantee a reasonable living standard.

Moreover, the province is now worried about the employment problem of young people of working age every year. There are not enough jobs and low salary levels, which is a headache. If a large number of agricultural people are allowed to move to cities and leave the land, not to mention the messy welfare costs to local finances.

Whether it can afford it or not, just to ensure employment is a big problem!

"I know that this is a big problem that cannot be solved by the province. It requires a national chess game to make adjustments. However, Tongyi plans to try it first. If it is effective, it will be promoted in the future. It is safe.

"Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "I just hope that the province will raise its hands and turn a blind eye to those who can, and help us if they can help us fight for it."

"Of course, you don't need to tell me, Dongxing and I will try our best to help you." Su Aijun smiled. The rise of Tongyi can be said to have added a second engine to the economy of Qinxi Province, and it is not only

Like Jinning, it relies too much on resources. In recent years, it has absorbed millions of people from all over the province, which has relieved a lot of employment pressure for many local governments in the province.

According to the method mentioned by Fang Mingyuan, on the one hand, we promote the planting of high value-added cash crops to achieve the purpose of increasing the output value per mu and saving water. On the other hand, we continue to carry out urban construction and absorb more of the original agricultural population into the urban area.

This will achieve the goal of alleviating water shortages and increasing the income of the farming population.

This plan can currently only be vigorously promoted in Tongyi. This is mainly because Tongyi is a special zone, and most of the tax revenue goes directly to the Fang family, so the steps are bigger, as long as it does not seriously involve the eggs, so

The risks they face are far less than those of officials like them.

Su Aijun lit a cigarette, handed another one to Fang Mingyuan, squatted down on the field ridge and said: "One more thing, you kid, you have to tell me the truth. You really don't intend to end up in Fengyuan or Tongyi for the pharmaceutical factory."

Over the past few days, I have been bored to death by the officials who come to me complaining about poverty, asking me to help them get this project, and the calls to intercede.” (~^~)
