"We are a mine, and we don't know what fish farming is." Old Man Wu was not polite at all, and directly interrupted Li Jiatao's analogy, and actually recited the ancient text in style, "Liu Xiang said in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, 'Living with good people, such as the room of Zhilan, does not smell its fragrance for a long time; Dwelling with the wicked, like entering the abalone, does not smell its stench for a long time'. We, the rural savages, just want to keep a job for the people around us. If the world is good, no longer have people who are unjust, no longer think about separating one side of the power for themselves, and can pour their meager efforts to help our generation, then Jingtou County should not be chaotic. ”

's words made Li Jiatao feel very interesting, half happy and half worried. This old man is estimated to be a person with a little ink in his stomach, but this kind of old man who has been entrenched in the county for many years, the more he has a half-understood culture, the more difficult it is to convince.

After thinking about it, Li Jiatao said with a smile: "I was entrusted by Mayor Chen to sit with you to discuss this matter, and I am confident that we can achieve a win-win situation between the political axe and private enterprises." Now Jingtou County is the time when a hundred wastes are waiting to be rebuilt, and the Wu family has always been half of the mining industry, if we first take the pace of regularization and marketization, then the entire Jingtou County should indeed be free of chaos. Mr. Wu, please believe in the ability and sincerity of this political axe in Liusha City. ”

Old Man Wu coughed dryly a few times and said bluntly: "Forgive me for being shallow, Director Li can't represent this year's municipal axe." As for the win-win rhetoric, the people in our county don't understand the profundity, they only know that we have to pay taxes when we make money, and there are other expenses in addition to taxes. I don't understand why the previous political axes wanted to introduce what market competition to break the original pattern of Jingtou County. Our meaning is very clear, the clear is self-pure, and the turbidity is self-turbid, and it is good not to have too much administrative interference! ”

Li Jiatao was not angry at all, but seemed full of momentum: "'The clear is self-pure, the turbid is self-turbid, and the sludge is deep. If you cultivate this lotus surname, you can fly on the lotus seat. 'Isn't Wu always very interested in this?' Whether a person is up or down, it depends on the surname of the heart that resists temptation. Everyone has their own ideas, at least in my personal opinion, there is no need for a city, especially a provincial metropolis, to covet the interests of a few private coal mines in the county. Although the minerals of Jingtou County have made an important contribution to the municipal finance of Liusha City for many years, it seems that in order to achieve leapfrog development in Liusha City, these alone are no longer enough. ”

After a pause, Li Jiatao continued: "Please rest assured that there are too many tempting projects for our political axe, and minerals are only one of them, and our minerals still have to solve the problem of aging production form and scale." In the future, we will rely on new industries and new patterns to achieve breakthroughs, and I hope that Mr. Wu can give full play to the advantages of strong financial resources and embark on a wider development path! ”

Li Jiatao said very imposingly, but in his heart he estimated that the old man Wu did not understand what he had heard, and the old man was only afraid that he was still immersed in the situation of confrontation with the previous county party committee, and it was estimated that he was also tossed a lot.

Li Jiatao just wants to tell Mr. Wu that you are staying in the county and think that you can't let people snatch the golden rice bowl, and the city is thinking much more than this now.

In fact, as long as there are no more accidents in the mine, and there is no more chaos in the sky, the city and county will burn high incense!

Old Man Wu suddenly said: "I know this, and Mayor Chen will know it in the future." ”

"Know what?" Li Jiatao immediately asked rhetorically, but he felt that the more this old man talked, the more interesting it became, but he didn't have time to go around anymore, it seems that the sons of the Wu family are basically only the old man's head, and almost didn't interject a word, so he directly threw out his own plan: "Mr. Wu, the current situation of the mine city also understands that there are few wage arrears in the mine before, but the investigation of the [***] case of the previous county leadership team has been investigated for a long time." The mine owners here ran and came back, and came back and ran, so the current situation was created. ”

After a pause, Li Jiatao continued: "The meaning of the city is very clear, and I hope that the county and several mine owners will work together to solve the current chaos." My suggestion is that the county and the private miners who took over the mines should jointly set up a relief fund, each contributing a part of the money, so as to solve the problem of wage arrears first and eliminate the social impact. At the same time, the city's criminal police team has made progress, and several fugitive mine owners have already had clues, and it is estimated that the arrest will be a matter of the next few days, and the recovered stolen money will also be included in this fund. The top priority is to pay the miners' arrears of wages in advance, which is also conducive to stabilizing the mood of the existing miners and benefiting the production of the mine. As for the losses of the new mine owners, the county and the city will give policy support and compensation. ”

Old Man Wu sneered: "When will the policy support and compensation be in place every year?" ”

Li Jiatao smiled slightly: "Then let me tell Mr. Wu another good news, just last week, Liusha City has begun to demonstrate the establishment of a major project of coal and electricity integration base, which will be three times more than the original Liusha power plant project." If the current mine owners can understand the general situation and have a sense of the overall situation, there will be a bigger cake waiting for you to share in the future coal and power integration projects. ”

When Old Man Wu heard this, he was obviously moved, but he looked at his second son Wu Zuopeng, and Wu Zuopeng nodded quietly.

"Since Director Li has spoken so thoroughly, he is also quite sincere." Old Man Wu smiled, "On behalf of the mine owners in Jingtou County, Lao Yu accepted Director Li's suggestion. ”

Li Jiatao was stunned, but he didn't expect that Old Man Wu had sharp words before, but in the end he accepted his suggestions!

However, Li Jiatao is naturally happy to see this result, at least for the time being, there is an expedient measure, this investigation is considered a complete success, surprisingly smooth!

Old Man Wu's relief also made Sheng Weiguo, the secretary of the county party committee of Jingtou County, greatly relieved. Sheng Weiguo has not been the secretary of the county party committee in Jingtou County for a long time, and his foundation is unstable, so he is very worried that Li Jiatao, a young man, will collapse with Old Man Wu, and it will not end well!

In the evening of the same day, Sheng Weiguo held a banquet at the Jingtou Hotel to entertain the investigation team, Mr. Wu, and other representatives of state-owned and private mines.

When the delegates toasted Li Jiatao, they also expressed their support for Executive Vice Mayor Chen Jianglin's new ideas, saying things like "I have more confidence in the development of Jingtou County".

Li Jiatao was very sensitive to the discovery that the restaurant of this hotel in Jingtou County is quite high-standard, and in general, the counties with large resources such as mines belong to the kind of land rich people, and their economic strength cannot be underestimated, especially since they developed earlier, and they are very good at talking about pomp and circumstance.

It's just that, in Li Jiatao's view, such a small county has such a high-end hotel and such a high-end restaurant, which is definitely inconsistent with the current development scale of Jingtou County!

Who made the face project here so ahead of its time? Who is it that makes the level of hospitality here so high? Could it be that what Old Man Wu said before is very reasonable?

In Li Jiatao's view, Mr. Wu's words may have pointed out the problem of Jingtou County's lagging economic development in the past two years, but for the county, the higher the level of reception, the more times the leaders come, and the more places here that know how to make a fuss.

"It seems that I can't take a small place like Jingtou County lightly." Li Jiatao secretly warned himself in his heart.

Li Jiatao is well aware of this, and the higher the level of reception in the locality, the more difficult it is to investigate the problems in the deep-seated areas. Since ancient times, behind the high-level reception, it is often that things under the control of iron pass are not exposed, and they are not allowed to be reached, or they are fed to the royal cat with bribes, or they are framed to dye the white bi into black charcoal, or they buy the courtiers to restrain the supervisors, or they secretly create incidents to hurt people and kill people.

Perhaps it was the way Old Man Wu spoke in a mixture of words and whites, which evoked Li Jiatao's emotion when he read Shi Zhizhi in the past.

Li Jiatao once read an article saying that "good officials" in ancient times, in ancient times, spending time and drinking might be regarded as an elegant thing in high society, and encircling Shangguan could also be regarded as a normal reception, respecting superiors, and even using money and beautiful women may be regarded as a graceful name for repairing deeds, and regarded as a need for work.

It is precisely because of this that the mistakes of "good officials" cannot be discovered, confirmed, and corrected in a timely manner. Even if the "good official" will not develop in the direction of [***], it has added content and example to the [***] style of officialdom. It is difficult to say that the extravagance of officialdom will not expand into the glitz and extravagance of society!

Li Jiatao looked into the dark distance through the glass window of the private room and through the flashing neon lights of the county town.

"Is that a place where miners work all night? When these officials, cadres, and business owners raise their glasses to celebrate the smooth resolution of a matter, is the problem of the miners really completely solved? Li Jiatao asked himself secretly in his heart.

To some extent, he would rather Liusha City not have this once rich mining resource. After all, the story of the sudden richness of minerals is obviously a bit incompatible with the grand blueprint of urban development in Li Jiatao's heart.

"Secretary Sheng, Mr. Wu." When parting, Li Jiatao once again advised, "The incident of the miners being beaten and the arrears of wages to the miners must be resolved, and Mayor Chen is very concerned about this matter." ”

"Don't worry, Director Li." Sheng Weiguo smiled, "Since Mr. Wu has expressed his willingness to pay money, our county party committee and county government will definitely try to supervise the completion of this work." ”

Old Man Wu also smiled: "Director Li, in fact, the old man has long admired your name. To tell the truth, if it weren't for Director Li and you coming to investigate in person, ordinary people would really not have given their face. ”

Li Jiatao was slightly stunned, this old man Wu knows himself? However, Li Jiatao said quietly: "Then thank you Mr. Wu, when you come to the provincial capital, I will invite you to dinner." ”

Li Jiatao has always been very strong, and he doesn't use honorific titles for Old Man Wu, but he also feels that it is very necessary to be strong, like this kind of old fox who has become a fine spirit, if you give him a smile, he will be very bright!

That night, on the way back to the provincial capital, the rain was pouring down.

Lou Jiuliang mentioned it several times: "Director Li, why don't you stay in Jingtou County, the reception level here is still okay." ”

Li Jiatao didn't say a word, just sat in the car and closed his eyes to recuperate.

"There's still a lot of work in the department, so let's hurry up and go back." Liu Qingfeng saw that Li Jiatao looked a little unhappy, and hurriedly said with a smile.

On the way, Li Jiatao received a call from Executive Vice Mayor Chen Jianglin: "Jiatao, Jingtou County is a landslide and mudslide prone area, you must pay attention to safety, if you can't do it, don't rush to the night." ”

The members of the investigation team were very envious of Chen Jianglin's condolence call, but Li Jiatao only lightly expressed his gratitude and did not feel flattered.

If it weren't for the illegal mining in the mines for many years, how could there be frequent mudslides and landslides?

On the road, there was really a traffic jam because of a landslide. The heavy rain continued to be like a note, and Li Jiatao thought of a poem: A spring thunder shook the sky, and the downpour was like a stream. Who wakes up pink willow green? Hundreds of birds chirp in unison.

A bolt of lightning instantly split the darkness outside, like tearing a huge crack between heaven and earth, and the raindrops that were originally only heard were now the size of beans and raindrops falling all over the sky, frequently whistling through the car window.

Li Jiatao looked out the window, the branches were swaying in the wind and rain, and the brushes were rattling!

"Director Li, Wu Meng, the Chinese boss of Delta Group, is the youngest son of Mr. Wu." Liu Qingfeng suddenly said, "This Wu Mengke is a unique character since he was a child, determined not to stay in the mine for a lifetime, and has always wanted to do something in the city." ”

"Really?" Li Jiatao responded lightly, but his heart was full of thoughts, "Wu Meng, as the youngest son of Old Man Wu, why didn't Executive Deputy Mayor Chen Jianglin mention such a big thing to himself, and no one else hinted at even a little bit of this content?" ”

Li Jiatao knows very well in his heart that the Chinese boss of this Delta Group is likely to be a hard-hearted character who is more black-hearted than his brother and Old Man Wu!

Li Jiatao felt a chill in his heart, but it stimulated the fighting spirit in his heart even more: "The greatest happiness in life is to conquer people instead of the natural world. ”

Not for anything else, just for the female lawyer Luo Ying, who asked for her life for the people but suffered humiliation, and is now staying in a nursing home!

Li Jiatao was keenly aware that he was facing an iron bucket pattern that Liu Deming, the secretary of the municipal party committee at the time, could not break!

"Who is behind this bucket pattern?" Li Jiatao pondered about this matter all the way.

Obviously, behind Luo Ying's early humiliation, there must be the shadow of Delta Group. And Wu Meng, the boss of Delta Group, is the youngest son of Mr. Wu, and Luo Ying once asked for the lives of those miners who were beaten and owed wages, and everything was the fuse!

"No wonder Chen Jianglin told himself that he could start thinking about Luo Ying's case." Li Jiatao secretly sneered in his heart, "I don't care what Mayor Chen you are, if you want to use me as a gun, I'm afraid that you, Mayor Chen, will inevitably be affected by the time!" ”

Three days after ―――――――― dividing the line, ―――――――― Liusha Metropolis Daily published an article titled "Miners Beaten: Who Is Behind the Scenes?" report!

The report outlines some of the reporter's investigations into miners who are owed wages, which is the behavior of some of the mine owners who have fled. When the miners petition, it should be the management department that is worried, so who is the person who is the one who is the miner?

The reporter's investigation found that the van that was chasing the miners at that time was not carrying the license plate number of Jingtou County, and some witnesses also proved that it should be a car in Liusha City, the provincial capital.

Some of the license plate numbers written down by witnesses and miners were verified to be forged by the city. If the assailants were private mine owners in Jingtou County, would they have forged license plates from Liusha City in advance?

Moreover, most of the miners at that time did not know the thugs and had not seen them in the mine, so it was even more bizarre that they were beaten.

It is reasonable to infer that the beater may have had another purpose.

An investigation has shown that in addition to the miners who were beaten up yesterday morning, they temporarily went to other places to beat the construction site because they did not have a job. These people are basically working as coolies, and the time is very short, except for a longer time at a cement factory in a neighboring county, and then they are sent to participate in the relocation project of the water park project in Yuhua District.

Some miners reported that the miners who were beaten the most were not the ones who owed the most wages, nor were they the core members of the petitioning incident, but on the contrary, they were still very honest people.

After seeing the pictures of the incident, some citizens broke the news that the vans belonged to the cement factory, and the investor of the cement plant was Delta Group.

As a result, Wu Meng emerged from the water. Wu Meng is the youngest son of the Wu family, a big mining family in Jingtou County, many people think that Wu Meng is the one behind the scenes, and later it was Delta Group who sent miners to the capital for surgery, and the serial problems in this are intriguing!

Executive Vice Mayor Chen Jianglin was lying on the sofa in his office, and on the coffee table was a pile of newspapers that had been crumpled together, and the words "Metropolis Daily" could be vaguely seen.

As the executive vice mayor, Chen Jianglin didn't know how this report passed the censorship! Because of the relationship between Governor Zhao Dongfang, Chen Jianglin has always had a good relationship with the Propaganda Department and has reached a consensus. But now, the explanation given by the Propaganda Department of this manuscript is the negligence of the leader in charge!

In Chen Jianglin's view, it seems that someone is behind the scenes to push this incident to continue to develop, which is not as simple as he thought. Although the miners were paid in arrears of wages and the beaten miners received the best treatment, the impact of the incident is not over!

Chen Jianglin felt as if a net was silently spreading, but what it was trying to capture, or what it was trying to cover, was really puzzling!
