As for Xiao Zhen's second fire, it was burned in a small pit arranged for him by Long Zaihai. For the loss of the financial position, Long Zaihai will obviously not be reconciled. At the team meeting in the town on this day, Long Zaihai took the initiative to talk about the construction plan of Baijia Town, and even rose to the height of the urbanization construction of Shudu City and the national western development strategy. Then the conversation changed and severely criticized the current problems of illegal buildings in Baijia Town being difficult to demolish and the slow progress of land acquisition and demolition. In the end, he showed his fangs and said that now for these problems in the town, it has been made clear that the town government is responsible for the specific implementation, and these are the messes left by the previous mayor, and Xiao Zhen, the successor mayor, is duty-bound. The meaning of this is that if Xiao Zhen fails to complete his task, then I am afraid that he will have to be labeled as a grand strategic goal that hinders the large-scale development of China's western region.

Xiao Zhen understood that this was a pit, but he didn't think about refusing. He understands that if these problems are not solved, it will be a serious obstacle to the development of Baijia Town, and it is precisely because of this that Baijia Town is obviously lagging behind other regions in the last round of development and construction, and this problem is unavoidable for him, the mayor of the town.

That night, in a private room of a tea shop in the town, four people sat around a mahjong table, each with a stack of 100-yuan bills in front of them. It was Long Zaihai and Bai Shuisheng, the deputy mayor of the town, the director of the office, and Li Xiaoming, the owner of the tea shop, who were playing mahjong.

"Secretary Long, my teahouse is also an illegal building, if Mayor Xiao takes me at that time, you have to be the master for me," Li Xiaoming, the owner of the tea shop, said cautiously typing out a 30,000 yuan

"Haha, wait, Hula, all the same"

Hu took a handful of the same dragon in the sea, and continued with a smile: "Lao Li, what are you afraid of, this involves more than your family, and besides, the biggest illegal building in this town is not your teahouse, and someone will naturally stand up at that time, why are you nervous?"

"Yes, the secretary's trick is really clever. First, this illegal building and land requisition and demolition can be said to be close to every household in the town, if it is too tough and makes the people's resentment boiling, he Xiao Zhen is waiting to become the public enemy of the masses. An alien mayor has lost the trust of the masses, and it is not a matter of Secretary Long's phone call to get rid of him at that time. ”

The person who answered the phone was Bai Shuisheng, the deputy mayor of the town, looking at Long Zaihai's approving gaze, and then said: "The so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, if it weren't for the prestige of our Secretary Long, this Baishui Town would have been so smooth sailing in the past few years." With him, Xiao Zhen also wants to make waves in this town, and he doesn't know how good the snake here can bite. ”

"Yes, yes, not to mention Bai Wanhao's family, you can crush him ten times, just those old people in the dilapidated house in the west, he Xiao Zhen dares to try one. If he goes too far, then Mayor Bai will go deep into the masses to do the work, so that some persecuted people will also bravely stand up and jointly accuse Xiao Zhen, and then see who else can keep him. Director Ma also hurriedly added two sentences to reflect the sense of existence.

"Yes, in this town, except for Secretary Long, I don't buy anyone's account. At that time, only you, Secretary Long, will be able to calm the anger of our angry masses. Li Xiaoming flattered Long Zaihai sensibly.

Long Zaihai said with a serious face: "I will always put the interests of the people first, but I have to support Mayor Xiao's work." Don't worry, if Mayor Xiao goes too far, I will definitely stand up and give an explanation to the masses...... Hey, it's nonsense again, big pair, haha!!"

At this time, the private room was filled with a harmonious and joyful atmosphere.

Two weeks have passed, although Xiao Zhen personally took the lead in organizing the demolition work on the front line, but there is still no progress in the demolition work, in the face of those illegal households, Xiao Zhen can still fight strongly, but in the face of the old people in the old wooden houses in the west, he really does not dare to have the slightest temper. No matter how patiently they explain their work, the old people just stubbornly refuse to move, saying that they will die in the old house. Two of the big-tempered ones also pointed at Xiao Zhen and scolded him, so that Xiao Zhen was not aggrieved.

As for Bai Wanhao, the biggest snake in Baijia Town, Xiao Zhen didn't see it, but saw Bai Wanting and Liang Ying, the waste son-in-law. After all, Bai Wanting has knowledge and etiquette, and in his family's mansion, which is also an illegal building, he received Xiao Zhen very warmly. Bai Wanting is a very smart woman, and she euphemistically expressed her unwillingness to be the first bird and would not be used as a gun by some people with ulterior motives. But I also hope that Xiao Zhen will not fall into the trap of others, and she must use her family as a tool to kill chickens and wait for Liwei.

Xiao Zhen told the Bai family that demolition and relocation are the needs of national planning, and if Baijia Town wants to seize the opportunity to get better development, then every Baijia Town person should support and cooperate with the government's decision. At the same time, Bai Wanhao, as a well-known figure in the business community of Shudu, should support the construction of the country and make a contribution to the development of his hometown.

Back in the office, Xiao Zhen carefully investigated Bai Wanhao's information: a member of the Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, vice chairman of the Shudu Chamber of Commerce, a native of Baijia Town, with the spring breeze of reform, started from scratch to build a huge career, and the current industry involves many fields such as hotel catering, trade supermarkets, steel wholesale, real estate, etc., with conservative estimates of assets of no less than 5 billion. On the bright side, such a power is really not something that a small mayor can shake. However, although Xiao Zhen was not afraid, he didn't want to mess with him for the time being. No matter what Million Hao thinks, but at least Bai Wanting is reasonable, at present, the Bai family does not want to stand on the opposite side of themselves, so there is no need for him to provoke this local snake according to Long Zaihai's idea.

But sometimes the time comes by accident, but only if you are well prepared and have the sharpness to seize the opportunity. Just when Long Zaihai thought that Xiao Zhen had confessed, another notification document arrived, allowing Xiao Zhen to start a new layout.

This is a flood control notice issued by the province, although such a notice has been issued every year in the past, but this year it was issued significantly earlier than in previous years. In the notice, all localities attach great importance to it, especially in the Shudu metropolitan area, which may encounter rainy weather that is rare in a century. Xiao Zhen learned more detailed information from the National Weather Service through his connections. It was found that the problem this time may be much more serious than in the notice, and the biggest problem at present is that there have been few floods in the history of Shudu, and many flood control facilities have great hidden dangers because of the perennial lack of attention. After a little thought, Xiao Zhen is ready to officially light the third fire after taking office.

The weather in May was already slightly hot, and on this day, Xiao Zhen convened the leadership team and relevant departments to participate in the special meeting on flood control and flood control, and comprehensively arranged the deployment of work tasks. From this meeting, the staff of the office should comprehensively record every meeting and every decision in the town, and supervise and check the progress of the assigned work tasks every day. Although Long Zaihai thought that Xiao Zhen was making a fuss, Xiao Zhen was holding the documents from the province, and no one could oppose it clearly. After the meeting, Director Ma and several people immediately gathered in the secretary's office and muttered something.

Director Ma said with a look of grievance: "Secretary Long, what do you say he is doing, a flood control and flood control is like a war, and so many things have been arranged for the comrades in our office, I think he is deliberately looking for something for me."

Deputy Mayor Bai sneered twice and said: "I see, Xiao Zhen has admitted to the matter of demolition, and he wants to divert everyone's attention by making a big fuss about flood control." ”

"What kind of attention should be diverted? Engaging in flood control and flood control work in Shudu is already funny enough, and I think he is annoyed and angry, messing around, not only can not divert attention, but will also attract more attention." Long Zaihai continued with great authority: "Pony, you still have to work hard, and you still have to do a good job of surface work in the things you arrange, don't be caught by him in any pigtails." Deputy Mayor Bai, you keep an eye on Xiao Zhen for me, don't let him mess around, the demolition can't let him avoid the past like this, he has to bang and knock from time to time. ”

When they had finished their deliberations, they dispersed with joy.

In the following time, Xiao Zhen was busy inspecting the flood control work every day, not only conducting a comprehensive inspection of Baijia Town, but also understanding the places outside Baijia Town that may affect each other, and fully grasped the first-hand information. At the same time, he personally went to the county and city to implement the project funds and organize flood control materials, and although there were many obstacles, the work was still carried out in an orderly manner. In the blink of an eye, at the beginning of July, the weather in Shudu has obviously changed greatly, and the continuous heavy rain has made Xiao Zhen's heart unusually heavy. Just a few days ago, the internal information of the National Weather Service reached him again, and this time the flood control situation may be even more serious than previously expected. Thankfully, the disaster prevention funds from the city and county finally arrived in the town through Xiao Zhen's efforts, and although it was delayed a bit, it was still timely.

Early in the morning, Xiao Zhen asked the office to notify the office to hold a special meeting on flood control and flood control again at half past 10 o'clock to study the key work in the next step. But when I arrived at the conference room, there was no one except Xiao Wu in the office. After asking, I learned that after the meeting notice was issued in the morning, the town party committee suddenly notified everyone to go to a place called Luyang Villa at half past nine to carry out quality development activities. Deputy Mayor Zhang, who has always been close to Xiao Town, was suddenly notified by the county to attend the meeting. It is said that Secretary Long also specially explained that Xiao Zhen was busy with work, so he didn't need to specially notify Xiao Zhen to participate, but only asked Xiao Wu in the office to come and say to Xiao Zhen and let him rush to Luyang Villa for dinner at noon. Xiao Zhen was so angry that he slammed the door and walked out, and this was the scene where Xiao Zhen, Bai Shuo, and Cao An met in the town office building before.

Well, you play scoundrels with me, and I'll be cheeky with you. Xiao Zhen issued a notice of the meeting for three days in a row, and each time it was only a few people, but Long Zaihai did not participate in the meeting once for various reasons. Xiao Zhen also specially asked people to record the meeting truthfully. In this way, the work that could have been arranged in a meeting was gradually promoted through Xiao Zhen's piecemeal arrangement and the individual exchange of opinions between departments.

Soon, the drainage facilities in the town were basically dredged, and in the dilapidated houses to the west, in addition to his own repeated painstaking mobilizations, Xiao Zhen also found the children of those old people. Relatives, working together, and the conditions of the relocation area are obviously superior, but most of the people have moved out of the dilapidated houses, leaving only three or five families, who are unwilling to move out anyway; the vendors in the underground passage of Qianjin Road have finally agreed to withdraw from the passage, but they must first get the rent refunded by the town; there is still one last obstacle left in the flood channel connecting the quarry to the southeast, and it is only a few hundred meters away from being completely opened. And recently, Director Ma of the office has been much more honest, he was investigated by Xiao Zhen and warned him about abusing his power and buying shares in the operation of Internet cafes, although there is not much direct evidence, but it also played a role in knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger. In addition to not daring to be too embarrassed by Cao An's Internet café for the time being, he no longer dared to disobey the things arranged by Xiao Zhen.

However, Long Zaihai couldn't sit still, he didn't expect that if Xiao Zhen's work ability was strong, he could still advance the leading work so quickly under so much resistance, which was simply a serious challenge to his authority as a secretary. Everyone knows that he and Xiao Zhen are at odds, and it is an open secret that he secretly obstructs the flood control work led by Xiao Zhen in every way. Every project promoted by Xiao Zhen is like a thorn in his eyes. He decided not to hesitate to use the absolute authority of his secretary to suppress Xiao Zhen.

As a result, the drainage canal was finally stopped at a distance of about 300 meters, the vendors in the underground passage refused to evacuate again because they did not receive compensation, and they were stationed in their stalls all night in silent protest against the town, and other projects, large and small, were forced to stop. The reason was that Long Zaihai refused to sign the payment of relevant funds, and recalled most of the comrades who were carrying out flood control and flood control tasks and arranged other jobs. Xiao Zhen was furious with Long Zaihai in public in the town, but Long Zaihai scolded Xiao Zhen for not distinguishing between the severity and the severity of the town, excessive consumption of the town's already scarce funds, and also gave Xiao Zhen a hat of great joy and stubbornness.

The rain stopped intermittently for a few days, like a calm before the outbreak, followed by three consecutive days of intense rainfall, and the daily rainfall in some parts of Shudu even exceeded 280 mm. Xiao Zhen wears a raincoat every day to check the flood control situation. Long Zaihai looked at the streets of the town that had flowed like a river, and only began to have some doubts in his heart, but he only signed and confirmed the payment for a few projects. In fact, until now, Long Zaihai would not believe that there would be any floods in the realm of Shudu. The reason why he signed and delegated power was that he felt that it was almost rare to treat Xiao Zhen, and on the other hand, if something really happened, he could also have a reason to be exempted.
