Chapter 435: The transformation and perseverance of Cuigu Village in spite of wind and rain
While the agricultural product processing industry in Cuigu Village was booming, Wang Dashan always had a knot in his heart.
Although the village's economic situation has improved significantly, its infrastructure is still very backward.
The roads are rugged and become muddy when it rains, which seriously affects the transportation of agricultural products and the visits of tourists.
Moreover, the electricity supply in the village is unstable and power outages occur frequently, which poses a considerable obstacle to food processing production.
Early in the morning, Wang Dashan stood in his yard, looking at the path leading to the outside world, his brows furrowed.
Xiulan came out with a bowl of steaming corn paste and said distressedly, "Dashan, are you worried about the village again? Eat breakfast first, you can't let your body collapse."
Wang Dashan took the corn paste, took a sip, and said, "Xiu Lan, if we don't solve the road and electricity problems in our village, how can we develop in the future? Agricultural products can't be shipped out, and tourists are unwilling to come. What can we do?"
Xiulan sat aside, thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we discuss it with the villagers and see if they have any good ideas?"
Wang Dashan nodded, "Yeah, I think so too. Let's call a meeting today and listen to everyone's opinions."
After breakfast, Wang Dashan rang the village loudspeaker and called the villagers to a meeting at the village office.
Soon, the village office was crowded with people, and everyone was discussing the current situation in the village.
Wang Dashan stood in front of everyone and said seriously, "Fellow villagers, I called you here today to talk to you about the infrastructure problems in our village. The roads and electricity have seriously affected the development of our village. Everyone should think of ways to solve it."
Lao Zhang sighed and said, "Dashan, we have thought about the road and electricity issue. But how much money will it cost? How can our village afford that much money?"
At this time, Xiaohu stood up and said, "Secretary Wang, I think we can apply for support funds from the higher-level government and mobilize the villagers to contribute their labor. If we all work together, we can get this done."
The villagers nodded in agreement, but someone raised a question: "Even if we can apply for funds, how can we carry out this project? We have no experience."
Wang Dashan pondered for a moment and said, "I've thought about this as well. We can ask a professional engineering team to help with planning and construction, and we villagers can help out. This will ensure the quality of the project and save costs."
After some discussion, everyone finally reached a consensus and decided that Wang Dashan would be responsible for applying for support funds from the higher-level government and organizing the villagers to prepare for their labor.
In the following days, Wang Dashan ran around preparing application materials.
He traveled back and forth to the county, reporting in detail to government departments on the development of Cuigu Village and the difficulties it faced.
After many efforts, we finally got the support of the higher-level government and applied for a considerable amount of support funds.
With financial support, the road construction and power transformation projects were officially launched.
Wang Dashan stays at the construction site every day and works hard with the villagers.
He personally led the villagers to carry construction materials and help level the land.
Although the sun was scorching and his clothes were soaked with sweat, he didn't care. He had only one belief in his heart, which was to improve the village's infrastructure as soon as possible.
During the construction process, some difficulties were encountered.
For example, some villagers did not quite understand the construction plan and were worried that it would affect their own interests; other villagers were not very motivated to work because of the hot weather.
Wang Dashan patiently did ideological work for everyone, explaining to each household one by one, making everyone understand that this was for the long-term development of the village. Only when the village is well off can everyone live a better life.
After several months of hard work, the roads in Cui Gu Village finally have a brand new look.
The flat and wide cement road leads directly to the village, and there is no need to worry about muddy roads on rainy days.
At the same time, the power transformation project was successfully completed, and the village's power supply became stable and reliable.
The villagers were very happy to see the changes in the village.
Lao Zhang held Wang Dashan's hand and said, "Dashan, thanks to you, our village has changed today. In the future, it will be much more convenient to transport our agricultural products, and there will be more and more tourists."
Wang Dashan said with a smile: "This is the result of everyone's joint efforts. Our village can be what it is today, thanks to everyone's contribution."
However, Wang Dashan was not satisfied with the status quo.
He knew that as the village developed, education and medical problems gradually became prominent.
The school in the village has been in disrepair for many years, the teaching equipment is simple, and the learning conditions for the children are very difficult.
Moreover, there is no formal medical clinic in the village, and villagers have to go to the town more than ten miles away to see a doctor, which is very inconvenient.
One night, Wang Dashan and Xiulan sat in the yard and talked about education and medical problems in the village.
Xiulan said worriedly, "Dashan, we have to find a way to solve the problem of the school and the clinic. The children are the future of our village, and we can't let them study in such a poor environment. It's also inconvenient for the villagers to see a doctor. What if they get an emergency? What should we do?"
Wang Dashan nodded and said, "I have been thinking about this too. I will go to the county again tomorrow to see if I can get some policy support and financial support."
The next day, Wang Dashan set out for the county again.
He found the leaders of the Education Bureau and the Health Bureau and explained the situation in Cui Gu Village in detail.
The leaders are very concerned about the development of Cuigu Village and said that they will study solutions as soon as possible and try to provide some help to Cuigu Village.
After returning to the village, Wang Dashan told the villagers the good news.
Everyone was very excited and expressed their willingness to contribute to improving school and medical conditions.
Under the leadership of Wang Dashan, the villagers of Cui Gu Village united again and began to work hard to improve education and medical conditions.
They cleaned up the school playground, repaired dilapidated classrooms, and spontaneously donated money to purchase teaching equipment.
At the same time, the village also vacated a house to build a medical room.
During this process, Wang Dashan also encountered some resistance.
Some villagers believe that improving education and medical conditions requires a lot of money and there is no obvious benefit in the short term, so they are not willing to support it.
Wang Dashan went from house to house to explain to them the importance of education and medical care to the development of the village.
He said: "We work harder and invest more now so that our children can have a better future and we can have a healthy living environment. Only when everyone is healthy and children have knowledge can our village truly develop."
After some effort, the villagers finally reached a consensus.
We all work together to improve school and medical conditions.
As the project progressed, the school and clinic in Cui Gu Village gradually improved.
New teaching equipment has been delivered one after another, and the medical room has also been equipped with basic medical equipment and medicines.
On this day, Wang Dashan came to the school and saw the children studying hard in the brand new classroom. A gratified smile appeared on his face.
He came to the medical room again and saw the villagers seeing doctors and getting medicine here, and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
However, Wang Dashan knew that this was just the beginning.
Cuigu Village will face various challenges in its future development.
But he firmly believes that as long as all the villagers unite as one, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome.
He looked at the green mountains in the distance, his heart full of expectations for the future, and secretly vowed to lead Cui Gu Village towards a better tomorrow.
