Chapter 1929

Precisely because of this, these tasks in charge of Bi Guoxin are not considered top-priority tasks in Chongjin County, so he didn't even enter the Standing Committee. You know, generally speaking, the Standing Committee deputy county magistrate is the deputy county magistrate in charge of these tasks.

When Bi Guoxin came to Su Xinghui's office, Su Xinghui saw that Bi Guoxin looked gray and did not have that spirited look. As soon as he sat down, he took out a cigarette and wanted to throw it to Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui declined, so he took out a lighter and lit the cigarette himself, smoking it gloomily.

Bi Guoxin's mental state made Su Xinghui shake his head. He is only in his forties, but he is already bald, and his fingers are charred yellow, obviously a heavy smoker.

Su Xinghui patiently said, "Deputy County Magistrate Bi, I invited you here to ask you about the current status of the county's industry, transportation, and urban construction, and whether you have a plan to do these tasks well."

Bi Guoxin looked up and said, "County Magistrate Su, our county is only this big. You have also walked around the county these past few days, so you can see the situation. There is basically no industry. Every year, plus those small workshops, as well as the county's oil mills and rice mills, the output value is only tens of millions, less than 100 million. As for transportation, the road conditions in the county are very poor, and urban construction is also very poor."

"If you ask if there is any plan, of course there is a plan. If there is money, everything can be done well. But the county has no money, so the work cannot be improved. If you give me a few hundred million now, I guarantee that within a year or two, I will repair all the roads in the county and repair the houses, repairing them beautifully."

Su Xinghui said, "Deputy County Magistrate Bi, listening to you, you attribute the reason for the county's lack of development to the lack of money, right? If there is no money, can't the work be done well?"

Bi Guoxin spread his hands and said, "Let's not talk about industry. Transportation and urban construction are both money-spending things. Without money, I can't do it."

Su Xinghui said, "Then in those places where these tasks are done well, are they richer than our Chongjin County? This thing still has to rely on oneself, not just waiting for money to fall from the sky. If there is no money, the work won't be done?"

Bi Guoxin said, "County Magistrate Su, it's not that I'm saying, but you spending 350 million to repair embankments, I think it is open to question. These embankments, they are not like this, even if you repair them into flowers, they are just like that. I heard that Deputy County Magistrate Nie originally proposed a plan that only cost tens of millions, but you insisted on using this 350 million plan. If you save those 300 million and spend it on transportation and urban construction, wouldn't that be great?"

Looking at Bi Guoxin's eloquent appearance, Su Xinghui found it a bit funny. These cadres have no ability to develop the economy, but they get excited when they see money. This 350 million was found by Su Xinghui. According to what he said, it seems like the county's money, and Su Xinghui shouldn't have used it.

Su Xinghui asked, "Deputy County Magistrate Bi, I have understood your meaning. You have no ideas, just waiting for money to fall from the sky?"

Bi Guoxin blew a smoke ring and said, "County Magistrate Su, if you want to understand it this way, I have no opinion."

Su Xinghui no longer had the patience to talk to him, so he waved his hand and said, "Alright, Deputy County Magistrate Bi, you go and get busy first."

Bi Guoxin stood up and left without even saying hello to Su Xinghui.
