Chapter 277: You've Earned Extra Money, Too

"No, no, Director Dong helped me, it was completely obligatory, at most I took a little souvenir, and I really didn't take ......much money," Ruan Fugen hurriedly declared. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He had the heart to say that Dong Yan didn't take a penny, and remembered that he didn't pay attention just now, revealing that Dong Yan bought a watch or something, and it seems unreasonable to say that he didn't take any money.

Feng Xiaochen smiled and said, "Director Ruan, you should believe that the Heavy Equipment Office is on the side of you and Director Dong." Now what you need to do is to cooperate with us, and we will discuss a plan to rescue Director Dong. If you're going to hide it from us, we're afraid we won't be able to help. ”

"Director Feng is right...... Ruan Fugen showed an embarrassed smile on his face and said: "Director Feng knows, I am a farmer, I have no power and power, and I only have a few money. Dong Yan came to help me every Sunday, running at both ends of Jianlu and Hoi An, so hard, should I give him some compensation. ”

"How much money did he take from you in total?" Feng Xiaochen asked.

"This ......" Ruan Fugen hesitated for a moment, seeing a trace of displeasure on Feng Xiaochen's face, he knew that he couldn't even grasp this life-saving straw if he kept it hidden, so he had to tell the truth and said, "I haven't counted the total number, it's like two or three thousand yuan." ”

"Silk ......" Zhou Mengshi and Gu Shijian both took a breath of cool air, from last year's fertilizer equipment subcontracting to now, it has only been a little longer, Dong Yan actually made such a lot of money just by helping on Sunday, no wonder some people are red-eyed.

Feng Xiaochen didn't think so, just two or three thousand yuan, what is the matter? If it is placed in the future generations, a person with a skill level like Dong Yan will not be less than this amount in an appearance fee. Even if the current currency is more valuable than the future generations, making two or three thousand yuan in half a year is really not much. Yan Baitong has helped Chenyu Company for more than a year, and he has earned tens of thousands of dollars, not counting the patent dividends that are currently hanging on the company's accounts, waiting for the opportunity to distribute his patent dividends in the future.

"In addition to the cash income, how much else can the things you give him be worth?" Leng Feiyun asked beside him. He remembered that Ruan Fugen had just said that he had also sent local products to Dong Yan.

"A little souvenir is all produced in the field, and it is worthless. Ruan Fugen said, seeing Feng Xiaochen's eyes glaring at him slightly, he quickly changed his words and said: "In addition to local products, I also sent a cosmetics set to his wife Xie Li, and some stationery to his son and daughter. ”

"A total of three or four thousand yuan, which is really enough to file a case. Gu Shijian said.

"Huh?" Ruan Fugen was dumbfounded, what does this Comrade Gu mean?

Feng Xiaochen waved his hand and said: "Old Gu, you can't say that, this is Dong Yan's labor income, not by betraying the interests of the country, it can't be regarded as a bribe." ”

"Yes, yes, it's definitely not a bribe. Nguyen Phuc Gen said.

Leng Feiyun reminded: "Director Feng, this is a legal matter, we can't overstep our responsibilities, let's draw conclusions now." I think that this matter has a certain relationship with our rearmament office because it involves the subcontracting task of large fertilizer equipment undertaken by Quanfu Machinery Factory, so we should report to the leadership first, and then decide how to ask. As for how to deal with Director Dong in the end, I think it is still necessary to respect the provisions of the law, what do you think? ”

"I understand. Feng Xiaochen nodded. Leng Feiyun's words are considered to be old and serious, as an official, Feng Xiaochen should indeed not draw conclusions about things too early, especially if he can't make any promises to Ruan Fugen, otherwise he will be caught by people in pigtails and affect the development of his career.

However, Feng Xiaochen also knew that the Dong Yan incident was just a small incident in the process of reform. The Sunday engineer thing may be a bit controversial today, but in a year or two, it won't be seen as a deviant thing anymore. In fact, if it were not for the old feud between Ma Weixiang and Nguyen Phuc Gen, this matter would not have developed to the point of being brought forward by the police, at best, it would have been a few criticisms from the unit.

In the final analysis, the crux of the matter is Ma Weixiang, and to solve this problem, we have to start with Ma Weixiang.

"Director Ruan, we already know about this matter, as Director Leng said, we need to report to the leader first, and then according to the leader's instructions, do some further understanding, you have to be patient. However, I can assure you that as long as Director Dong does not betray state technical secrets and does not harm the public and private interests, then there will be no problem. Feng Xiaochen said to Ruan Fugen.

"Thank you so much, thank you Director Feng, thank you Director Leng, thank you Comrade Gu and Comrade Zhou!" Ruan Fugen bowed to everyone in a circle, lest he neglect anyone and affect the handling of the matter.

Sending Ruan Fugen away, Feng Xiaochen instructed Gu Shijian and Zhou Mengshi to check the information and find out how similar things were generally handled, and he came to Luo Xiangfei's office with Leng Feiyun to report the matter to him.

"It's really messy playing the piano!" After listening to Feng Xiaochen's relay, Luo Xiangfei frowned and scolded, "Some of our comrades are not focused on construction, but on all kinds of conspiracies. ”

"That's right, the most fundamental reason for this matter is that Ma Weixiang is dissatisfied with the arrangement of the Heavy Equipment Office, Ruan Fugen is just the target of his anger, and Dong Yan has suffered it for no reason. Feng Xiaochen commented.

Leng Feiyun said: "You can't say that. According to Ruan Fugen, Dong Yan received a cash reward of two or three thousand yuan from him in half a year, as well as gifts worth more than 1,000 yuan, which is a very large amount, which is why the police arrested him. ”

Luo Xiangfei raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is the legal regulation for this kind of income of public officials?"

Feng Xiaochen said: "I have already arranged for Gu Shijian and Zhou Mengshi to understand. According to my impression, the law has stipulated the crimes of embezzlement and bribery, but Dong Yan's situation is neither corruption nor bribery. Because bribery should be premised on betraying national interests, Dong Yan is using his knowledge to make money, so it can't be regarded as bribery, right?"

Leng Feiyun said: "Emotionally speaking, I don't think it counts. But we still have to listen to the courts on what the law says. ”

"yes, we can't interfere with the law. Luo Xiangfei said.

Feng Xiaochen said: "This is actually a gray area that is not stipulated by law. According to the principle of law, nothing is prohibited by law. In fact, Haidong Province did this as a result of the law enforcement department's ignorance of the law. ”

"Are you sure?" asked Luo Xiangfei.

Feng Xiaochen said: "If it is illegal for public officials to make extra money, then I am afraid that there are not a few people left in various state-owned enterprises, public institutions and even our administrative organs who are not illegal." Let's just say that Director Luo, you are also among the violations. ”

Luo Xiangfei was stunned: "I, do I? When did I ever earn extra money?"

Feng Xiaochen said with a smile: "Didn't you also receive a remittance slip last week? I took it for you from Director Liu, fifteen yuan." ”

Luo Xiangfei said: "How is that extra money, that is an article I wrote about the development of the equipment industry was published in the Economic Daily, and people paid me for the manuscript fee...... Hey, you're right, if you follow Dong Yan's case, I'm going to be extra fast, right?"

Feng Xiaochen said: "Your nature is more serious than Dong Yan's. Dong Yan gave guidance to Ruan Fugen's company, using the knowledge he learned in college, and did not involve the technical information of Haihua Design. In your article, we collected a lot of information in our work, and some of the ideas we talked about at the meeting, which can be regarded as a service work. ”

"Really?" Luo Xiangfei's face was a little solemn, he pondered it carefully, and said, "Xiao Feng, when you say this, I really think that's the case." Otherwise, I'll pay the fifteen yuan manuscript fee......"

"Don't, Director Luo, you must not do this. Feng Xiaochen knew that he was joking, and hurriedly said: "I just said that anything can be done without prohibition. There is no legal provision that you cannot write articles for publication, and it is not illegal to earn from the manuscript fee for publishing articles. What official in a state organ can't write a few articles? If everyone is really required to pay all the manuscript fees, everyone will not be able to turn the sky upside down. ”

"But ......" Luo Xiangfei was a little confused, of course he knew that it was customary to get a manuscript fee for writing articles, and many officials were proud to earn a lot of manuscript fees. When the Economic Commission is in session, sometimes everyone will make jokes about those colleagues who have received manuscript fees, and ask them to use the manuscript fees to invite everyone to smoke and eat candy. But according to Feng Xiaochen's statement, it seems really unreasonable to take the information obtained at work and the opinions discussed collectively to write articles and earn manuscript fees for yourself.

Leng Feiyun had no choice but to appear in the round: "Director Luo, don't listen to Xiao Feng's nonsense, he is talking crookedly." In fact, you also wrote the article to promote our policy ideas, which is your extra job, and our rearmament office did not pay you overtime pay, and these manuscript fees are considered overtime pay. Think about it, it's better for you to write such articles in your spare time than for some comrades to just play cards and chess in their spare time, right?"

"Well, you're kind of a fallacy. Luo Xiangfei smiled. Leng Feiyun's explanation is really a bit strong, but it can still be said. He has now figured it out that handing over the manuscript fee is definitely a thankless thing, he has lost money, others will say that he is in the limelight, and once this matter spreads, it will make those colleagues who have also taken the manuscript fee feel unhappy. With Luo Xiangfei's experience, how could he do such a thing.

However, let Feng Xiaochen stir up like this, Luo Xiangfei was a little more sure of Dong Yan's affairs, and even thought of some policy-level things. At present, the state encourages the emancipation of the mind and the operation of machinery, and in the case of a shortage of technical personnel in the state, it is a good thing to allow some capable technical personnel to use their spare time to provide services for other units. And once this kind of behavior is to be promoted, then the corresponding remuneration is inevitable, and the family must not always be obligated to work, right?

In this sense, is the Dong Yan incident an opportunity to promote policy breakthrough?
