Suqian Network News (reporter Zhu Weiwei correspondent Liang Guanglun) In 2013, the collective economic income of the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee of Longji Town, Sihong County, was less than 400,000 yuan; in 2020, it jumped to 1.38 million yuan; in 2021, it is expected to exceed 3 million yuan.
From less than 400,000 yuan to expected to exceed 3 million yuan, the transformation of the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee is a microcosm of Suqian's in-depth implementation of the rural revitalization strategy and the promotion of high-quality rural economic and social development, and also a "report card" handed over by Zhang Xiantao, the "Secretary of the Bing Branch", leading the masses to grasp the industry and promote development.
He joined the military and was determined to change the face of his hometown
In December 1999, Zhang Xiantao actively responded to the call of the state to join the army and became a soldier with a steel gun to defend his family and country.
"The moment I left my hometown and went to the military camp, I secretly vowed in my heart: I must exercise well in the army, and I will have the opportunity to contribute to the development of my hometown and change the appearance of my hometown in the future." Zhang Xiantao said.
Life in the barracks was not easy, especially Zhang Xiantao's unit was stationed in the mountains of the northern part of the motherland, and for half a year the mountains were covered by heavy snow, and the natural conditions were particularly harsh. However, he did not feel bitter, but instead trained hard and worked hard. Because of his outstanding performance, he honorably joined the Communist Party of China in May 2001.
"Soldiers have always been not afraid of hardship, vigorous and fierce, and dare to fight a hard battle. This is given by the troops and cannot be changed in a lifetime. Zhang Xiantao said, "I am very proud to have been a soldier." ”
At the end of 2001, after retiring from the military, Zhang Xiantao returned to his hometown and became an auxiliary police officer at the local police station. In 2009, enthusiastic about solving problems for the masses, he returned to work in the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee, and in 2013, he served as the secretary of the party branch of the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee.
"The needs, hopes, and wishes of the masses are the direction of my efforts. To serve my father and fellow villagers, as a native of Yaoxing, I feel a great responsibility. On the first day of becoming the "Secretary of the Military Branch," Zhang Xiantao made an oath, "If you want to do a good job, you must make the organization trust, the leadership assured, and the masses satisfied." ”
The circulation of land paves the way to enriching the people
The "Bing Zhishu" shoulders the heavy responsibility of enriching the people and strengthening the village, so Zhang Xiantao strictly demands himself and works seriously and pragmatically. In his pocket was a small notebook that recorded the problems and suggestions reported by the masses every time they entered the group and visited the house. "The masses have put forward goals, tasks, and ideas for solving problems for us, and we must improve our measures and make every effort to achieve them." Zhang Xiantao said.
In view of the problems of low efficiency and low income caused by the traditional one-family-one-household small-scale planting model, Zhang Xiantao combined with the suggestions of the masses to vigorously promote the land circulation work. In 2018, the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee reached an agreement with The Jinshui Group of Sihong County to transfer 2414.7 mu of land to build a rice and shrimp co-cultivation base for the development of efficient agriculture.
For the masses living in the countryside, land is the "root of life". Therefore, a small number of people do not agree to the circulation of land. Zhang Xiantao and the cadres of the neighborhood committee went door to door to do ideological work and carefully calculated the economic accounts to dispel the concerns of the masses.
Up to now, the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee has transferred 3,400 mu of land, and the land circulation rate has reached 92%. After the land is transferred, the masses can not only obtain land rent, but also work in the rice and shrimp co-cultivation base in their free time, so as to achieve "double income" of rent and wages.
Develop industry to enhance the "hematopoietic" function
To achieve the goal of enriching the people and strengthening the village, we should not rely solely on agriculture, but should adhere to the "two-legged walking". After study, Zhang Xiantao and the cadres of the neighborhood committee decided to develop the project to achieve an industrial breakthrough.
In 2019, in order to fully revitalize and utilize collective assets, with the support of the party committee and government of Longji Town, the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee re-incorporated the abandoned primary school into the collective, and adopted the method of "borrowing chickens to lay eggs" to build a standardized factory building covering an area of 4500 square meters, attracting a spinning enterprise in Zhejiang to settle in. This project not only increases the collective economic income of the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee by 750,000 yuan per year, but also drives many people to achieve stable employment at their doorstep.
At the beginning of this year, the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee, which tasted the sweetness, seized the opportunity to build a new standardized factory building covering an area of 1,300 square meters and attract enterprises to settle in, which could increase the collective economic income by 350,000 yuan per year. Not only that, the neighborhood committee also plans to build a new standardized factory building covering an area of 6,000 square meters in the industrial concentration area of Longji Town, and the relevant procedures are being handled.
"This year's collective economic income is expected to exceed 3 million yuan." After carefully calculating the account, Zhang Xiantao said confidently.
"Feed back" the masses to build beautiful villages
The economy has developed and the people have become rich, but Zhang Xiantao knows that the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee still has a long road to go, and we must make efforts to build beautiful and livable villages and improve the quality of life of the masses.
Invest 220,000 yuan to comprehensively upgrade the drainage pipes, inlet pipes and other facilities of the farm; raise 860,000 yuan to pave a 9-kilometer-long cement road to achieve "household access"; pave cement roads, connect water and electricity to 226 breeding ponds, and solve the problems that have plagued farmers for many years... In recent years, the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee has actively promoted infrastructure construction and guided the masses to move into newly built centralized residential areas.
Not only that, Zhang Xiantao also proposed the establishment of the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee Land Share Cooperative, formulated a work system and management charter, and truly benefited the masses through democratic management, benefit sharing, and risk sharing.
"As the collective economy continues to grow, the work of 'feeding back' the masses has also been promoted." Zhang Xiantao said that in order to enhance the sense of gain and happiness of the masses, the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee plans to pay basic medical insurance costs for people over 60 years old from next year, and increase the support for families in difficulty.
The wind is full of sails. Under the leadership of Zhang Xiantao, the "Secretary of the Bing Branch", the Yaoxing Neighborhood Committee is now full of thriving scenes.
