Hongshi Valley is located 20 kilometers northeast of Chunyang County. It used to be the most barren place in Chunyang, with traffic congestion and sparsely populated areas. However, since the discovery of coal with abundant reserves, it has become the leader of Chunyang's economy. After three years of construction, Hongshi Valley Coal Mine has officially produced coal last year, and has achieved an annual output of 300,000 tons. For Chunyang, it has become the biggest economic pillar.

Although the road to Redstone Valley has been completed shortly after construction, due to the quality of the road itself and the passing of large trucks, there are now potholes everywhere, water everywhere on rainy days, and dust flying everywhere on sunny days.

Zhang Yang had to close the window of the Jeep. The air conditioner of the Jeep was not easy to use, and all the air was blown out was hot. Zhang Yang could only turn off the air conditioner. The car was so stuffy.

Qin Qing took out his handkerchief from time to time and wiped off the fine sweat beads on his forehead, looking at the large truck lane coming and going: "There is no railway from Chunyang to Jiangcheng, so for the development of coal mines, we should consider developing railways."

While carefully circling the big pit on the road, Zhang Yang said, "I heard that I had applied for the laying of a dedicated railway, but it was not approved. In fact, road transportation should be able to meet the requirements. However, this section of the road was repaired too slowly. I think the people who contracted the project must have cut corners."

Qin Qing smiled and said, "You can't just talk about things without evidence."

"What other evidence is needed for the facts here?" The jeep drove into a depression and pounded violently. Qin Qing was so bumped that he jumped from the seat and touched his head on the ceiling. Fortunately, it was a soft top, otherwise he would have been touched with a big bag.

According to the road sign, a road to the north is heading towards the Hongshigu Coal Mine, but there are also large coal transport trucks coming from the east road. The signpost says Zhang Wulou Coal Mine, and Qin Qing said: "It turns out that there is more than one in Hongshigu!"

Zhang Yang didn't know the situation here, so he casually found an old man who picked charcoal on the roadside and asked, "Uncle, how many coal mines are there in this area?"

The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhang Yang. He thought he was a businessman. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I want to buy coal, right? I'd better go to Zhangwulou Mine. Hongshi Valley is state-owned. Coal is too expensive. Litun can save a lot of money when going to Zhangwulou."

Qin Qing keenly noticed something and said softly: "Uncle, did you say that Zhang Wulou and Litun are both state-owned coal mines?"

The old man smiled and said, "What state-owned collective? The coal in Hongshi Valley is originally owned by us ordinary people. If the country can pick it, we can also pick it. The quality of coal is the same. Who doesn't buy cheap ones?"

The Red Stone Valley is geographically located between the cracks between the two mountains, east and west. The east mountain is full of flowers and plants, the sun is full of bright sunshine, green cypress, clear springs and waterfalls, but the west mountain is full of strange rocks, and the Tongshan Mountain is clean. The common point is that the rocks of both mountains are brown-red, which is why the Red Stone Valley is named. In theory, such rocks should be rich in iron, but the two mountains are dug up black coal. Now, as long as you stand on the top of the two mountains and look down, you will see a huge coal pit, with black fog and thick smoke. The Hong Stone Valley coal mine started to produce for not long, but the pollution was quite serious.

Although Qin Qing only briefly understood the situation, he knew that there were seven coal mines of all sizes around the Hongshigu coal mine, most of which existed in the form of collective development. According to the country's policy that small coal mines with annual output of less than 150,000 tons must be closed, these coal mines were all closed. What shocked Qin Qing even more was that these coal mines were almost all built with the Hongshigu coal mine. Based on her political intuition, Qin Qing had made a judgment that these coal mines must have great problems.

Zhang Yang accompanied Qin Qing to visit all day long. They pretended to be merchants who wanted to buy coal. Judging from the collected situation, the price of coal in these small coal mines was about 15% cheaper than that of the state-owned mines in Hongshi Valley. Such a profit margin was already very large. It is understood that the cost of mining was only a ton of more than 100 yuan, but the market price was three or four hundred yuan. Looking at the big trucks entering and leaving the small coal mine, Qin Qing fell into silence for a long time.

Although Zhang Yang has been in Chunyang's system for a long time, most of his attention is concentrated in the western part of Chunyang and rarely pays attention to the situation in Chunyang Industrial Zone. If he had not accompanied the new county magistrate to inspect the people's conditions, he would probably not pay attention to this place in the future. What attracted him attention was not the production capacity of the Hongshigu coal mine and the survival status of the surrounding small coal mines, but the poor road surface and harsh environment. Zhang Yang is a person who advocates nature. According to the current saying, he is an environmental protectionist. If opening a coal mine causes such damage to the environment, then in his opinion, it is more harmful than good. No matter how much value such a coal mine can create, it is unnecessary to exist.

The investigation of Redstone Valley has already allowed Qin Qing to clarify the focus of his future work. His experience in studying in the United States has allowed her to accept many advanced management experiences from the West, and has also allowed her to see the attention of foreign developing countries to the environment. This coincides with Zhang Yang's views.

On the way back to Chunyang County, Jiang Liang called him, and they made an appointment to greet Zhang Yang at Jin Kaiyue at 6 o'clock in the evening.

Zhang Yang invited Qin Qing to go with him. After Qin Qing's inspection, he was obviously much heavier. He shook his head and politely declined Zhang Yang's invitation.

Zhang Daguan had no choice but to send her back to Mingzhu Hotel. After a day of running around, Zhang Yang was covered in dust and sweat. He took a shower in the hotel, changed into clothes and was about to leave, but Qin Qing knocked on the door. It turned out that she suddenly changed her mind and was about to go with Zhang Yang. However, she also told Zhang Yang not to reveal her identity easily.

When he arrived at Jin Kaiyue, Zhang Yang's group of bad friends were all amazed when they saw Qin Qing. No one else had anything to do. Zhao Xinwei had attended the meeting of the Youth League Municipal Youth League Committee. When he saw Qin Qing, he immediately understood who this was. In the past two days, news about Qin Qing, the secretary of the Youth League Committee, was about to come to Chunyang to serve as the county magistrate. In addition, Qin Qing's beauty was impressive, so it was not difficult to recognize her.

Zhao Xinwei now admires Zhang Yang completely. Look at what kind of energy he has. The county magistrate has become a gang with him before he takes office. He is willing to come with him at such a gathering occasion. The relationship between the two is really extraordinary.

Zhao Xinwei thought so, and the others' ideas were simpler. They thought Qin Qing was Zhang Yang's girlfriend just hooked up, so they naturally became much more casual in their conversation. Qin Qing had already agreed to Zhang Yang on the way that when he introduced himself, he said he was his cousin, but these people were all smart people. If they said that they were cousins ​​and brothers, no one would believe it.

Niu Wenqiang saw Qin Qing and was so admirable. This guy actually admired Hailan in the past, but he saw that Zhang Yang and Hailan had no courage to interfere. Now that he heard Zhang Yang and Qin Qing break up, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Niu Wenqiang is the director of Jin Kaiyue, and the opposite love god Karaok is also my industry."

Qin Qing shook hands with him with a smile and joked: "I am not a tax check, so Boss Niu doesn't need to introduce me to property income."

The group of people burst into laughter, and everyone could see what Niu Wenqiang thought. Zhao Xinwei thought, "Niu Wenqiang is the big one," he said, "You are the secretary of the Youth League Committee, and you can raise the magistrate Chunyang." Seeing that Zhang Yang didn't mention Qin Qing's identity, he obviously didn't want to point out this matter. Zhao Xinwei paid attention to his words and deeds all night, for fear of leaving a bad impression on the new county magistrate."

Du Yufeng is a person who must talk dirty jokes on the table of wine. After drinking two glasses of wine, Zhang Yang complained that Jeep had always had problems recently and said with a smile: "In the past, the countryside was poor. Not to mention jeep, I had never seen a motorcycle. One day someone rode a motorcycle. Everyone didn't know what it was. There were many different opinions. Finally, the oldest and most respected old man in the village was invited. The old man walked around the motorcycle, but he didn't recognize what it was. Suddenly, he reached out and held the exhaust pipe and said loudly: I don't know what it is, but this thing is a public one!"

Zhang Yang laughed first, and the rest of the people laughed so hard that they were both laughing. Only Zhao Xinwei held back his laughter. He paid attention to Qin Qing's expression. Seeing Qin Qing still sitting there calmly, taking a sip of tea, putting down the tea cup, and whispered: "So Du has been working in Heishanzi Township in the past?"

Du Yufeng nodded and said, "I have just recently transferred to Chengguan Town!"

Qin Qingran smiled lightly and said, "You love grassroots work so much, why don't you continue working in Heishanzi Township?"

Zhao Xinwei was shocked when he heard this sentence, but Du Yufeng said unconsciously: "Heishanzi Township is a place where chickens cannot lay eggs and birds cannot poop. Whoever has some ability wants to stay there? People should be a little motivated, right?"

Qin Qing smiled and nodded.

Zhao Xinwei took an opportunity to go to the bathroom with Du Yufeng and whispered to tell him Qin Qing's true identity. Du Yufeng was stunned when he heard it, and a cold air rose up along the back of his spine. He regretted it: "Zhang Yang is really not a friend, why don't you remind me of this in advance?" I remembered that he was chatting dirty jokes in front of the county magistrate just now, and this guy regretted it so much that his intestines were blue.

Zhao Xinwei said: "I think Zhang Yang should have a good relationship with her. Since he doesn't remind him, he will make sense. Let's not make any noise about this."

The two of them muttered for a while before entering. Everyone could see that Du Yufeng was completely different from each other. Qin Qing immediately guessed that some of them recognized her, so she had the intention to leave. She used the excuse to go to the bathroom to leave some space for this group of bad friends.

As soon as Qin Qing went out, Du Yufeng rushed up and stuck Zhang Yang's neck: "Damn, you don't bring such a playful person!"

Niu Wenqiang and Jiang Liang were both confused. Zhang Yang couldn't help but smile and beg for mercy. Zhao Xinwei said with a bitter face: "I said brother, you are too unrighteous. If you take our county magistrate to have dinner, you must at least say a word."

Zhang Yang said: "If someone doesn't let me say it, I can't do anything!"

Niu Wenqiang remembered his performance tonight, but he was not a pervert, and he was paralyzed. This time he was so embarrassed. What she said just now shouldn’t be about checking my taxes?

Jiang Liang was also cold. The incident happened last night in his own jurisdiction, which left a little too much impression on the female county magistrate.

The group of people have their own thoughts, Du Yufeng is the most thoughtful. After the dirty joke just now, people directly reminded him that he would continue to work in Heishanzi Township. God, the earth, I have worked hard to get from my current position. Could it be that the disaster comes from the mouth and bring myself back to my original form with a dirty joke?

A group of people stared at each other, only Zhang Daren still smiled heartlessly, and fucked the wine in the glass and said, "What have you seen? What have you heard?"

After all, Niu Wenqiang was the most active person, so he reacted first: "I saw nothing or heard nothing. I didn't have dinner at Jin Kaiyue tonight."

Du Yufeng also realized that this guy's relationship with the new female county magistrate was really unusual. He shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything!"

Jiang Liang and Zhao Xinwei said in unison: "I don't remember anything!"

Zhang Yang looked at the frightened bad friends and sighed: "Despicable, shameless, vulgar, none of them have backbone."

Qin Qing walked in from outside and saw that they looked weird. He had already guessed eight points in his heart. He smiled and picked up the drink and said, "It's getting late, I'm going back to rest!"

Niu Wenqiang originally wanted to invite someone to sing at the karaoke bar, but now he knows Qin Qing's identity, and this idea is immediately dispelled. He wants to be the new female county magistrate, but he doesn't have the same Taoist skills yet.

A group of people stood up respectfully, and the atmosphere changed from relaxed to solemnity was only a matter of a moment. Zhang Yang stood up with a smile and said, "I'll go see it off, you all stay."

Watching them walk out the door one by one, one by one, and the guys sit down on the bench with dejected expression, Du Yufeng couldn't help but curse, "Which is this doggy-daughter singing today?"

Jiang Liang sighed and said, "This guys act like a dragon but a head but not a tail. It's so profound and unpredictable. We can only admire it. Stop talking, come on! Brothers, remember one sentence, one person is enlightened, and one person is ascended to heaven, and toast to our bright future!"
