Chapter 1515

The Changshan County Government also took out a sum of funds to help towns and villages carry out post-disaster reconstruction. This year, Changshan County's financial situation had improved significantly, which allowed the County Government to have greater strength to carry out such public welfare undertakings.

It is worth mentioning that in several towns such as Matou Town, Dashi Township, and Shangpu Township, there were also incidents of primary school classroom collapse. However, because it was summer vacation, the students were all on vacation at home, so there were no casualties, which could be considered a blessing in misfortune.

However, it was time to increase investment in education, otherwise, there would not be such good luck every time.

Matou Town was better. Yu Ruizhi and others donated funds to build three complete primary schools. Each of these three complete primary schools could accommodate hundreds of students, which could basically solve the problem of primary school students in the whole town going to school. For other towns and villages, it was still a long way to go to solve this problem.

And such things could not rely entirely on donated funds to build schools. The government had to play a greater role.

In the five counties and two districts of Yulin City, Shangjun County had the fewest house collapse accidents, with a total of three house collapse accidents, and there were no casualties.

However, the main embankment of Shangjun County was still hit quite hard. This continuous heavy rain for more than ten days occurred in the entire Yangtze River basin, making the water level of the Yangtze River almost close to the level of the year before last. However, under the efforts of the cadres and masses of the whole county, the main embankment of the Yangtze River in Shangjun County withstood several flood peaks and turned danger into safety.

Shangjun County was not the county along the Yangtze River that was most impacted by this flood, because Shangjun County invested a lot in water conservancy projects every year. Several counties owed too much debt before. Although the province allocated special funds to repair the main embankment since the end of last year, the condition of the main embankment was still not as good as that of Shangjun County, and it was in danger in this flood.

However, the final result was quite good. The hundreds of miles of Yangtze River main embankment in Hudong Province passed through this flood peak safely, and there was no breach.

This was mainly due to Su Xinghui and Weng Guoying. It was their suggestion that Hudong Province renovate the main embankment of the Yangtze River, and Weng Guoying was the direct executor. His months of hard work finally renovated and reinforced all the main embankments before the flood season arrived. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Hudong Province to withstand this wave of flood peaks this year.

And this wave of flood peaks was also an ominous sign. In many places, Weng Guoying's theory was confirmed, proving that there was a high possibility of a super flood that would be rare in a century in the next few years.

The heavy rain stopped, and the sun showed its smile again, which made everyone's mood better. However, in the Matou Town Government, another thing happened that made Su Xinghui feel a bit complicated.

That was, Du Fangfang resigned. She submitted a resignation report to the town government.

This matter seemed a bit incredible, but it was not rare. Du Fangfang was only a temporary worker in the town government, and in government agencies, there were too many such temporary workers. Wanting to become a regular employee could be said to be as difficult as ascending to heaven, and some people could not become regular employees for a lifetime.

Therefore, in government agencies, such temporary workers resigned every year, which was not very abnormal. However, Su Xinghui could feel that Du Fangfang's resignation was for him.

However, Su Xinghui could not retain Du Fangfang, because of her feelings for him that should not exist, and also because Du Fangfang's resignation report stated that she resigned because she would enter the leather goods factory opened by Yu Ruizhi.

The leather goods factory opened by Yu Ruizhi was located in Mayang Village, near Du Fangfang's home, and was about to be built and put into production. Now it was recruiting workers. Du Fangfang, who graduated from high school, could be considered an intellectual here, so she successfully applied for an administrative management position in the administrative department of the leather goods factory.

The salary offered by the leather goods factory was several times higher than her salary in the Matou Town Government, which could be called a high salary. For her family, this was a very important source of income. What reason could Su Xinghui have to retain her?

Therefore, Su Xinghui approved Du Fangfang's resignation report. Du Fangfang packed her luggage, and Su Xinghui sent a car to send her back to Mayang Village. When she got in the car and left the town government, Su Xinghui watched her leave silently from the window of his dormitory in the town government, saying in his heart, good girl, I hope you will live a better life in the future.

This afternoon, Yu Ruizhi and Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu came to find Su Xinghui. Yu Ruizhi winked and said, "Xinghui, I did you a big favor, right? I recruited your little lover into the administrative department of our factory. This time, I helped you get rid of a trouble."

Before Su Xinghui could protest, Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu scolded, "Brother, you are talking nonsense again. What little lover? Xinghui is not that kind of person."

Yu Ruizhi laughed and said, "I'm just joking with Xinghui. What kind of person Xinghui is, don't I know? By the way, Xinghui, you have been back in Changshan for more than ten days. I did you such a big favor this time, why should you treat me to a meal? You and Xiaoya have already received your marriage certificate, and you haven't treated me to a meal yet."

Su Xinghui said, "Alright, let's go to the county town for a meal today. Xiaoya and I will treat you to a meal together."

Yu Ruizhi said, "That's good, then today we will go to the best restaurant in the county town."

Changshan County town now had several good restaurants. In terms of dining environment, they were much better than the People's Restaurant, which was the best in the county town before, and could be comparable to the County Committee Reception House.

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Alright, let's go now. I'll call Xiaoya and let her wait for us in the County Committee compound."

After the call, Su Xinghui got into Yu Ruizhi's car and drove to the county town. He picked up Lu Xiaoya at the County Committee compound and went to a river food restaurant called "On the Other Side of the Water."

This river food restaurant was of Hudong local flavor. It was opened by a boss from Jiangcheng. Opening a river food restaurant in a mountain city like Changshan seemed incredible, but those who knew Changshan knew that this was a very normal thing.

Because Changshan was the highest altitude area within a radius of a thousand miles, there were several tributaries of the Yangtze River originating from Changshan. Here, there were also several reservoirs. The water quality of these rivers and reservoirs was very good, and the fish and shrimp and other river foods growing in them were of course of very good quality. Although the output was not as high as that of the Yangtze River, in terms of quality, it might be slightly better.
