Chapter 444: Fraudulent Donations
On the upstream bank of the Longkou River in Longkou Town, since Taixing Group decided to choose another land to build a paper mill, the original old factory area was suspended, and the equipment and machines were moved out one after another, and it was officially abandoned at the beginning of this month, and then it was requisitioned by the county west development and demolition and resettlement team, and Zhu Zhentao, deputy county magistrate and leader of the demolition and resettlement team, has focused on the work of these days.
If you have something to look for him, you can't find anyone else in the county government at all, so you can find someone here.
The work is going very smoothly, but the workload is very large and heavy, and it is not enough to get up early and be greedy for darkness, you have to wear the stars and the moon.
After being busy repeatedly, Zhu Zhentao's face obviously showed fatigue, but thinking of the county level he had just mentioned, his spirit came again.
As a few days ago, Zhu Zhentao first went to the various demolition registration sites, listened to the situation report, and then returned to the office to convene a regular meeting of the main members of the group to lay out the goals for tackling the fortifications.
The meeting was free to speak, Zhu Zhentao had already put forward a request, and if there were difficulties, they were generously put forward, and everyone brainstormed to solve them, and they hid and waited for themselves to find a way to solve them, which would delay the fighter. This demolition and resettlement is all about time, and it is also time to grab it. Personal ability is not an aspect of consideration, who wants to superstitious personal ability and affect the overall progress, then this person is unqualified.
From this point of view, Chen Mingyuan's vision is still very unique, and Zhu Zhentao is indeed a talent that can be cultivated!
Several offices removed the partition aluminum alloy wall and turned it into a small meeting, which was originally a commotion with you and me, but suddenly quieted down.
Zhu Zhentao, who was sitting with his back to the door, was strange, and when he turned his head, he saw Chen Mingyuan standing behind him with a smile.
"County Magistrate Chen, you're here!" Zhu Zhentao quickly stood up and bowed slightly.
Chen Mingyuan looked around and said with a smile: "I didn't disturb your meeting, otherwise, I'll come back later." β
"The clichΓ© has come to an end." Zhu Zhentao dared to let the county magistrate make a special trip to wait for him, and hurriedly announced the end of the meeting.
"Good job, you've all worked hard."
Chen Mingyuan greeted the people who walked out of the conference room, took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhu Zhentao, and said casually: "County Magistrate Zhu, how is the specific progress?" β
"County Magistrate Chen, let's go to the office to talk." Zhu Zhentao invited Chen Mingyuan into the office next door and made tea by himself.
Chen Mingyuan sat on the sofa, looked at the progress chart hanging on the wall, didn't think it was clear enough, and stood up to look closer.
"There are a total of 4,345 households that have been demolished, and 3,174 have been completed." Chen Mingyuan read the numbers above, these are the numbers that need to be demolished in the film and television city and highway projects, and said: "Yes, it has only been a little more than a month, and it is quite good to be able to reach this number." After a pause, he glanced at the remaining more than 1,000 households, and said, "What problems do the rest have?" β
"County Magistrate Chen, the situation is like this."
Zhu Zhentao took the tea and put it in front of Chen Mingyuan, lit a cigarette, and explained: "We are doing the standards for demolition and resettlement in accordance with your instructions, and most of the demolition households are still recognized, so a lot of demolition and resettlement contracts have been signed one after another, and what is written on the schedule is not completed, in fact, it means that the resettlement site has not yet been implemented." A large proportion of these households are lonely and single-homed, and we need to consult them on whether to be resettled in nursing homes or to build new homes such as relatives and friends or housing. β
Chen Mingyuan nodded silently, there are many poor households in the west of the county, resulting in many young and strong laborers going out to work or do business all year round.
"Well, the consideration must be comprehensive, and it must be properly settled." Chen Mingyuan nodded, and asked again, "Has the financial allocation for the resettlement cost been allocated?" β
"The full amount has been allocated, but more than 20,000 people are involved, in addition to some relatives and friends, most of them have to rent houses, and the rental houses in the county are on fire, and I heard that the price has risen by 20%." Zhu Zhentao frowned and hesitated: "County Magistrate Chen, do you think, does this county government want to intervene?" β
Chen Mingyuan thought for a while, shook his head and said: "This is not good, demand determines the market, and the government's blind interference and suppression will only be counterproductive." Suddenly, he remembered something, and asked, "Is the resettlement cost low?" β
"It's lower, but the government's deadline for relocation and resettlement is one and a half years, and the demolition households say they can accept it."
"In this way, you go back and type another report, I will communicate with Secretary Xiong, try to apply for some financial appropriations from the city and the province, and the demolition standard must be appropriately raised to meet the price of market rent, and the interests of the masses cannot be damaged." I think that only a small number of people have to live in rented houses. β
Zhu Zhentao was still frowning, and reminded: "But in this way, the finance will have to spend about 10 million more......
Fortunately, the west of the county is vast and sparsely populated, and the demolition work is not too difficult, but such a huge amount of work, everywhere is a place where money is used, and the city and the province have allocated money several times.
"I'll deal with these things, you just need to do a good job of demolition and relocation, and you must not go wrong!" Chen Mingyuan solemnly instructed: "This money must be spent, through this demolition, although the masses can improve their living conditions, but after all, it still affects their normal life and work, I believe the city will understand." β
Looking at Zhu Zhentao's increasingly thin cheeks, Chen Mingyuan suddenly smiled: "I haven't seen you for a week, and County Magistrate Zhu has lost weight again." β
Zhu Zhentao smiled: "It's good to lose weight, save a lot of clothing expenses, I couldn't wear a lot of clothes and pants at home, but I can wear it now." β
Chen Mingyuan waved his hand and said: "Hey, you still have to pay attention to your body, the demolition work has just begun, and the next step is the real demolition, and the Jinxi Township area in a month will have to see a flat area." β
Zhu Zhentao hurriedly agreed, suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, County Magistrate Chen, there is a charity fundraising activity organized by entrepreneurs in Jinxi Township today, saying that they want to contribute to the construction of the west of the county. β
Chen Mingyuan said: "Oh, these entrepreneurs are quite anxious to be righteous and righteous, who is the organizer?" β
Zhu Zhentao recalled: "It is the one that contracted the radon spring hotel, called Huayu ......."
Chen Mingyuan smiled dumbly, sure enough, it was still Ye Qingxue, and he never forgot to engage in charity and poverty alleviation.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing important today, Chen Mingyuan wanted to go to the scene on a whim.
Zhu Zhentao immediately wanted to accompany him: "Did you notify Jinxi Township to make preparations?" β
Chen Mingyuan thought for a while and said, "Time is tight, I'll wait until the place is available." β
Zhu Zhentao knew that he was purely going to see the excitement, so he didn't greet other followers, and walked downstairs alone with Chen Mingyuan, outside the factory, Yin Qingning and Fang Xiang were sitting in the car and waiting.
Like last time, the road to Jinxi Township is still so flat.
After entering Jinxi Township, I felt like another country.
Along the way, Chen Mingyuan saw a lot of construction signs set up on the roadside, as well as more than a dozen large forklifts that were transferred, looking like they could start work at any time, and everything was full of vigor.
When I entered Jinxi Township, I saw colorful flags fluttering everywhere, on the side of the road at the entrance of the town, a temporary rostrum was set up at this time, a red carpet was laid out on it, and two rows of chairs were arranged.
"Just stop here!" When there were still a few hundred meters away from the venue, Chen Mingyuan asked Yin Qingning to stop, "Find a secluded place!" β
There happened to be a vacant lot in the forest on the side of the road, Yin Qingning drove the car in, Zhu Zhentao originally wanted to ask Chen Mingyuan if he would notify Jinxi Township to come out to greet him now, but as soon as he saw this situation, he decisively pretended to be deaf and dumb.
After getting out of the car, Chen Mingyuan led a few people to the direction of the venue.
When I walked in, I saw the huge title behind the rostrum of the venue: "The Commencement Ceremony of the Road Repair Project in Jinxi Township, and the Thanksgiving Conference for Donations and Contributions from Caring Entrepreneurs." β
On both sides of the rostrum, there is also a sign on the left: "Get rich and don't forget the villagers, kindness and kindness". On the right is: "Drinking water must think of the source and go to a well-off together." β
Although the slogan is not very neat, it still summarizes the theme of today's conference concisely.
On the chair on the rostrum, there are two rows of people sitting upright, sitting in the front, is the 'always asking for money' Township Chief Zhong, although he was trained by Chen Mingyuan to tremble, but with the settlement of the film and television city project, he was fortunate to become the founder of the development milestone of Jinxi Township, the mood can be imagined how happy it should be, at this moment an old face is almost laughing.
It's just that if he learned that Chen Mingyuan was already preparing to send him to the CPPCC before the fall, he wouldn't have such an expression.
When Township Chief Zhong was in high spirits and preaching a fundraising speech, on his right hand, there was a pretty woman with an outstanding demeanor, but it was Ye Qingxue.
I saw that her skin was better than snow, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, a set of delicate and close-fitting women's pencil pants and a white shirt, not only outlined her concave and convex body curves, but also set off the unique capable and elegant temperament, perhaps due to the high temperature, the white goose egg face like a lily, with rose on the cheeks, looking pure and charming.
In front of the rostrum, there were villagers from the town who came to see the excitement, standing bustlingly, gathering around to see what was going on, while talking about it.
Chen Mingyuan found a place behind the crowd and stood there.
Yin Qingning stood aside, looking around vigilantly, he was unexpectedly patted on the shoulder, and when he turned his head, he saw Ye Jianwen being happy at him.
"I look at it from a distance, and I don't notice it." Ye Jianwen slapped his shoulder, turned his head and saw Chen Mingyuan, his expression couldn't help but be a little restrained, and he shouted 'Brother Chen' in a proper manner.
Chen Mingyuan glanced at his suit and leather shoes, and said, "You're also here to show love?" β
Since Gu Yuanping secretly contributed to pushing Zhu Zhentao to the position of deputy county magistrate, in line with the principle of repaying the favor, Chen Mingyuan still decided to hand over the village highway project to him in charge, as long as Gu Yuanping can ensure the construction period and quality, he doesn't mind doing a favor.
Of course, the most critical consideration is that he also needs the Gu family to help him contain Liang Qiru in Wenhai City!
Ye Jianwen nodded and said with a smile: "Yuan Ping has something at hand that he can't get out of, so he asked me to go through the motions." He pointed to the rostrum again, "By the way, come and cheer for my sister." β
Chen Mingyuan smiled, turned around and continued to look at the situation on the rostrum, and suddenly noticed that Ye Qingxue was supporting the table with her elbows, frowning and rubbing her temples, her face was a little tired, so she asked in a low voice, "What has your sister been busy with lately?" β
Ye Jianwen didn't know why, and muttered: "It's still the same, flying everywhere all day long, Lingnan for a while, I came to Ruining directly after returning to Wenhai last night, and I saw that the workload was several times stronger than before, and even my parents couldn't stand it, saying that she didn't take her body seriously at all, and the family was not in a hurry to use money, so why fight so hard." As he spoke, he sighed.
Fang wanted to listen, and suddenly a sentence came out: "She shouldn't fail in love, she wants to numb herself with work......"
As soon as the words fell, Yin Qingning and Zhu Zhentao glared at him fiercely.
Fang Xiang quickly closed the big mouth that was unobstructed.
The speaker had no intention, and when he heard Fang Xiang's casual words, Chen Mingyuan's heart moved, and a faint thought gradually appeared in his mind.
ββ¦β¦ Under the great attention of the county leaders and the great help of the villagers, our Jinxi Township is about to bid farewell to the dilemma of relying on the sky to eat and rely on the ground to dress, and what greets us will be a broad road to a well-off ......" On the stage, Township Chief Zhong gradually turned to the topic after a generous speech: "First of all, please allow me to introduce the leaders and guests present today......
At this time, Ye Qingxue stood up generously, smiled at Township Chief Zhong, took the microphone and began to speak, she highly praised the kindness and kindness of the entrepreneurs in Jinxi Township, and said that she would be highly responsible, strengthen supervision, and create a rich and harmonious environment for the people of Jinxi Township.
Narrating eloquently, Ye Qingxue's wonderful eyes turned around in the audience, and soon saw her younger brother, but when she noticed Chen Mingyuan beside him, her face was obviously stagnant, and her voice trembled for a moment, but she quickly calmed down, looked away, and concentrated on the speech, but no one could notice the unknown deep meaning that passed in her bright eyes.
Subsequently, the highlight of today's conference came, the entrepreneur representatives carried the enlarged check samples that had been prepared to the stage, and made on-site donations, each of which was one million, and as the numbers were reported one by one, the villagers below were a little excited and discussed.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit came to the stage, his hair was shiny, his face was white, and he was thin.
Township Chief Zhong glanced at it and shouted loudly, "Tianwang Mining, three million!" This number immediately caused the villagers below to exclaim in unison, but Ye Qingxue's face darkened, and the gaze of the fat man in the suit was extremely gloomy.
Chen Mingyuan looked at these details, asked Zhu Zhentao sideways, and said, "What is the situation of this Tianwang Mining?" β
Zhu Zhentao distinguished, and immediately said: "County Magistrate Chen, this is the boss of Tianwang Mining on the stage, called Deng Tianwang, a native of Longkou Town, similar to many locals in the early years, went to Europe to do business, it is said that he has made some fame in the Chinese business circle in Italy, and he returned to Ruining two years ago to open a mining company, mainly engaged in pyrophyllite and other minerals. He glanced at the sample of the 'three million' check in Deng Tianwang's hand, and said a little sarcastically: "It is rumored that this person is a little unkind in business, and he loves to be in the limelight, and he often runs the train with his mouth full......"
Chen Mingyuan knew it in his heart, and thought that Deng Tianwang had really donated three million, but it turned out that he was in the limelight.
In layman's terms, this is a fraudulent donation!
Ye Qingxue's original intention to engage in charity fundraising is good, but unfortunately there are many unspoken rules that she can hardly resist, these entrepreneurs, although they attended the fundraising meeting due to the invitation of the government, most of them are willing to contribute, but the amount of capital contributed is by no means as glamorous and huge as it seems.
Some people came to the stage with a sample of a check of 1 million, but in fact, he may have only donated tens of thousands of yuan to go through the motions, just to earn face, gain fame, and show his face in front of the leaders by the way.
Most of the leaders also know it, but no one will take the initiative to expose it, after all, these entrepreneurs have cooperated enough, and they have more or less donated money, which has greatly enhanced the prestige of the government and themselves, as for the rest, it doesn't matter.
In short, the leaders and entrepreneurs took what they needed through a charity event, and everyone was happy, only the ignorant people were still in the dark, teased by the clumsy performance!
Sure enough, when Deng Tianwang turned around and sat in the chair, the faces of the surrounding bosses were not very good-looking, although everyone came to participate in this ceremony today just to deal with it, but why should you let Deng Tianwang monopolize the limelight.
Deng Tianwang didn't care, grinned at Ye Qingxue on the stage, and waved to the villagers around him, looking arrogant.
Chen Mingyuan noticed the strange relationship between the two, and asked Ye Jianwen sideways: "Does he know your sister?" β
Ye Jianwen's expression was also a little weird, he frowned and nodded, and said, "He is my mother's cousin, my sister's cousin...... Back then, he was the one who took my sister to Europe. β
Noticing the resentment in Ye Jianwen's eyes, Chen Mingyuan remembered Ye Qingxue's denunciation of Ye Wanshun in Wenhai Hospital, and from the conversation between the father and daughter, it seemed that Ye Wanshun had entrusted Ye Qingxue to this distant relative.
Originally, Ye Wanshun was looking forward to Deng Tianwang taking his daughter to get ahead in Europe, but this unreliable distant relative treated the young Ye Qingxue harshly, letting her live in a dark and damp basement, nest in the corner to eat leftovers, and do overloaded work, so that it didn't take long for Ye Qingxue to escape, if she hadn't been taken in by a kind old woman, I was afraid that she would have frozen to death in that ice and snow......
Thinking of this, Chen Mingyuan's face was filled with a hint of coldness, if he was a person who knew him, he would definitely be able to see that he was murderous at this time. to deal with it, but why should you let Deng Tianwang monopolize the limelight.
Deng Tianwang didn't care, grinned at Ye Qingxue on the stage, and waved to the villagers around him, looking arrogant.
