80s Taoism

Hu Xuxiang, Secretary of the Party Committee of Gezhuping Town, and Tang Guanying, Mayor of Gezhuping Town, received an emergency notice from the county and rushed to the county in an old-fashioned Beijing jeep, the only official vehicle of the town government.

"Old Tang, the county is in such a hurry to let us go to the meeting, is there something wrong?" Hu Xuxiang's expression was very serious, and suddenly a notice came from the county, and he knew without thinking that something must have happened. But what exactly is it, I have no news in advance. Cui Shilin, secretary of the county government office, notified directly by phone. Not a hint of limelight was revealed.

"Secretary Hu, I also don't know anything about it." Tang Guanying shook her head.

There was some tension in the car. This can't be blamed on Hu Xuxiang and Tang Guanying's nervousness, mainly because of the series of earthquakes after the theft. Although Xu Yinshan ended up in jail, the aftershock of this case is still not over.

"Maybe I'm worrying too much. I always feel that something happened in our town?" Hu Xuxiang frowned and said, as if talking to himself.

"Nothing happened in the town recently? If something happened, how could the county know about it before us?" Tang Guanying shook his head.

"Forget it, let's not scare ourselves here. Otherwise, there was nothing wrong, and we would scare ourselves into something." Hu Xuxiang took out a box of Baisha cigarettes from his pocket, and gave one to Tang Guanying, and another to the driver Yu Xingkuan.

"Thank you, Secretary Hu." Yu Xingkuan took the chimney and thanked him. Driving for the leader, as long as he has a good look and keeps his mouth shut, the treatment is good. Others handed cigarettes to the leader, but he sat in that position and asked the leader to smoke for him. But to light a cigarette, you can only take out the lighter from your pocket and light it.

Tang Guanying quickly took out a box of matches, lit a cigarette for Hu Xuxiang, and lit the cigarette herself. All of a sudden, there was a cloud of fog in the car.

After Hu Xuxiang and Tang Guanying rushed to the county, they rushed to the county government conference room without stopping. As soon as he approached the meeting room, his legs were a little weak in fright. All the chiefs of the county were present. However, there are only two cadres at the town level, Hu Xuxiang and Tang Guanying.

"Secretary Hu, Mayor Tang, because I want to know something from you, I asked you to come to the county in a hurry. Thank you for your hard work." said Deng Junshan, the county magistrate sitting at the top of the conference room.

"It should be, it should be."

Hu Xuxiang and Tang Guanying, who were confused, sat down in two empty seats in the meeting room.

"Secretary Hu, Mayor Tang, how much do you know about the Meizi'ao Garden?" Deng Junshan asked after Hu Xuxiang and Tang Guanying sat down.

Hu Xuxiang and Tang Guanying stood up quickly.

"Sit down, sit down and talk. We just understand the situation." Deng Junshan said.

Tang Guanying said, "Meizi'ao village is my point of contact. I know the situation better. Let me tell you. The Meizi'ao gardening area is about two to three hundred mu. It was built when the village ran a tea farm. But it was contracted by the villagers in the 1980s. The tea trees were seriously degraded. This year, Meizi'ao Village reopened the gardening farm and agreed to the contract. When the county went to the countryside, the contractor planned to turn the tea farm into an orchard. However, I heard later that the tea trees seemed to be alive again. But I don’t know the details.”

Deng Junshan nodded, but his face became serious, "It seems that our cadre comrades still don't care enough about rural production."

This sentence almost completely denied Tang Guanying's work. Tang Guanying's expression changed dramatically.

"Don't be nervous. It's not time to make a decision yet. I just got the news that the tea from the Meizi'ao Horticultural Farm in our county has just won the Xiang Tea Cup Gold Award. Our county has been struggling to find a high-quality product, but we have produced such a good product. We didn't know until we won the award. Are we a little too late?" Deng Junshan looked around the conference room.

Everyone in the conference room looked serious and did not dare to make a sound.

"Director Dai, shouldn't you be recommended by the Bureau of Agriculture to participate in the evaluation of Hunan tea cups? Why don't you have any news?" Deng Junshan looked at Dai Chengbao, the director of the Bureau of Agriculture who had recently escaped with great difficulty.

Although Dai Chengbao escaped, the position of the director of the Agricultural Bureau is not stable, so he has been honest recently. When Deng Junshan called his name, his body trembled immediately, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with trepidation, "The tea from Meizi'ao was not recommended by the county. It should have gone directly to some connections in the province."

"Did no one know about this dark tea beforehand? Why didn't the Bureau of Agriculture send it up for evaluation?" Deng Junshan's expression darkened.

Dai Chengbao shook his head, "Accordingly, we should have known about this in advance. If such a good tea had been available before, it would be impossible not to be famous at all. But no one in the county has ever drunk Meizi'ao black tea."

Tang Guanying also said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes, I have been to Meizi'ao so many times, and I have never drunk any black tea. The locals drink only dried tea tree leaves. Put it in water and boil it for tea. If there is such a good tea, there is no way I haven't drunk it."

Deng Junshan couldn't help but nodded. If there is such a good tea, why didn't anyone know about it before?

"Let's not pursue this issue now. Meizi'ao Horticultural Farm won this award, which is a great opportunity for the tea industry in our county. Our county was originally a big tea county, but we lacked a competitive product that can be sold, so the tea industry has been shrinking over the years. But now, we also have a competitive product that has won an award in the province. We should make full use of this advantage." Deng Junshan said.

"Mayor Deng, but the Meizi'ao Horticultural Farm has been contracted to an individual, and this black tea should be made by the contractor of the Meizi'ao Horticultural Farm. If the contractor disagrees by then, we may not be able to make good use of it, right?" Deputy County Magistrate Zang Guoxin said worriedly.

"In front of the interests of the people of the county, individual interests must be subordinated to collective interests. The Meizi'ao Garden is contracted to individuals. But in nature, it is also collective property. We can contract it out or take it back. It is enough to give the contractor a certain amount of compensation." Deng Junshan naturally does not want to miss any opportunity if he wants political achievements.

But Zang Guoxin is a little worried. Now, from top to bottom, it is reforming and opening up, advocating the development of private economy. If the county does this, isn't it against the spirit of the central government? But what Deng Junshan has decided is not something he can change.
