Chapter 68 Wastewater Treatment Plant
Having experienced business in her previous life, Su Qing knows the importance of environmental protection.
Green water and green mountains are gold and silver mountains.
This environmental protection concept has long been ingrained in our bones.
She knew very well that as silk production grew in scale, it would cause extreme pollution to nearby water sources and air.
Therefore, Su Qing had already planned to build a sewage treatment plant in the economic budget at the beginning of the year.
It has been postponed only because of the current economic situation.
The funds for Xinfeng Farm had just been transferred, and according to Lin Yueran, the funds left for circulation were already stretched to the limit.
Fortunately, in terms of rice planting, in addition to helping Xiangyang Brigade deliver the public grain and withheld grain, and deducting the farmers' work points.
There is still a little surplus, which is enough as start-up capital for the sewage treatment plant.
"You mean to use all of it for the sewage treatment plant project? Then we will have no extra working capital in our accounts. Isn't this risky?" Lin Yueran was worried.
"The pollution reported by the villagers does exist and we must deal with it immediately." Su Qing has made up her mind.
Lin Yueran didn't say much and just followed the instructions.
Although Su Qing had known about the villagers' unrest for a long time, she was sure that Ye Lingshuang was secretly instigating it.
He didn't take her seriously, thinking that she wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.
On the contrary, Li Guobiao has recently been helping Su Qing in the production team and trying to please him with his work achievements.
Su Qing also saw it and didn't agree with his hypocritical behavior.
Soon, some troublesome villagers gathered at the sewage treatment plant construction site next to the silk production base.
"This is an important delta area of the Rui River. It is the source of the villagers' daily water. Don't even think about starting construction here."
"Look, the sewage from your silk base stinks to high heaven. Get out of Red Star Village right away. We don't welcome you here."
"Just smell it, what's this smell? It would be strange if everyone doesn't get sick."
"And the machines in your factory rumble all day long, making it so noisy that we can't even sleep."
……
The villagers complained and surrounded the workers at the sewage treatment plant.
"You mean the villagers are stopping us from carrying out construction." Su Qing received the news and felt it necessary to go to the scene to carry out publicity.
"Fellow villagers, we are going to build a sewage treatment plant to filter the sewage we discharge. Please don't stop us, believe me." Su Qing stood on a high place with a small radio and made loud propaganda.
After a long time, the villagers still refused to leave.
Seeing this, Lu Xingchen suddenly had an idea, so he called Chen Ruifeng over and whispered a few words in his ear.
Then Chen Ruifeng brought Bai Lanxiang, Lin Yueran, Su Yao and others with some cash and food coupons in their hands.
"We have some compensation here. We will compensate whichever household arrives first. But after you receive the money, please leave."
This trick is really effective.
Those who received the money and food coupons were also satisfied and walked away.
The sewage treatment plant project was officially started.
But the next day, at the instigation of Ye Lingshuang, the group of troublemaking villagers appeared on the construction site again.
I thought maybe there would be some money and food coupons distributed today so I could have some income. Why not do it? And I guess Ye Lingshuang also received some benefits.
But Su Qing was not in a hurry.
She had already come up with a plan yesterday and is now waiting for news from Chen Ruifeng.
As he expected, Chen Ruifeng brought back good news.
What he brought back was a stack of newspapers, Yangdu Evening News.
Su Qing contacted the provincial newspaper's reporter stationed in Jing'an County yesterday and conducted an exclusive interview on the Xiangyang Brigade's erosion production base.
Moreover, the reporter who conducted the interview got in touch with the experts who came to Xiangyang Brigade for guidance and inspection last time, and the provincial government officially gave full affirmation to the practices of Xiangyang Production Brigade.
In particular, in this report, special praise was given to the practice of building sewage treatment plants.
This means that the construction of the sewage treatment plant is officially approved and supported by the provincial government.
Chen Ruifeng reported this news report in public.
When he came back, he prepared a lot of copies, and Lin Yueran, Su Qing and others distributed one copy of the newspaper to everyone.
The sewage treatment plant was affirmed and praised in black and white in the government's official newspaper.
At this time, no one dared to disobey.
Lu Xingchen didn't expect that the harp would have such a trick.
"This girl is really good at doing things." He felt even more praise for Su Qing in his heart.
Seeing this situation, Lu Xingchen led everyone to drive the villagers who were watching the excitement nearby away from the construction site, and set up a cordon around the construction site.
The sewage treatment plant project was able to start smoothly.
The Xiangyang Brigade’s affairs have been handled almost the same way.
After returning home, he raised an idea that had been weighing heavily on his mind in front of Su Qing.
"Do you want me to accompany you to Kyoto to look for clues about your biological father?" Su Qing has been busy with his business during this period. He thought about it and realized that he had indeed ignored Lu Xingchen's personal needs.
Especially last time, Lu Xingchen knew that he could be promoted but finally gave up the opportunity and stayed, which also sacrificed some of his personal rights.
Now that Lu Xingchen saw that he had almost finished dealing with some of the trivial and complicated things on hand, he brought it up.
I really have no better reason to refuse.
"You agree to go with me!" Lu Xingchen didn't expect Su Qing to agree so readily. His usually serious expression also revealed a rare smile.
Lu Xingchen sorted out the letters from Kyoto that he had brought back from his uncle's house in the county town last time.
In particular, all the information about Lu Wannian in the letter, including his address, was recorded in a small notebook.
Bie and Su Suqing packed their luggage separately and prepared to go to Kyoto early the next morning to find their father's whereabouts.
Before leaving, Su Qing arranged some important tasks and went to the credit union to withdraw enough cash and food coupons.
She is rigorous and detail-oriented. She thinks about what might happen before doing anything, figures out countermeasures, and makes various preparations.
He even paid close attention to small details like train tickets.
As agreed, the two of them rode in a 28-inch bicycle to the county town and then took a long-distance bus to the city.
After taking another train for two days and two nights, I finally arrived in Kyoto.
This was also the first time that Su Qing had traveled far away since her rebirth and the first time she had come to the country's capital.
Everything in front of me feels very wonderful.
Thinking about how I was sweating in the rural production brigade a few days ago, racking my brains for various production and planting ideas.
And today, accompanied by Lu Xingchen, I came to this glorious and solemn capital.
Everything I see is fresh and unfamiliar, and it gives me a very wonderful feeling.
They found a hotel and after settling down, they followed the address in the letter, asking people and taking rides along the way.
After wandering for nearly two hours, I finally arrived at the building with the address I had in mind.
But unfortunately, the building has long been deserted. I asked many people nearby and they all said there was no such person as Lu Wannian.
