Chapter 555: Construction Site
Walking on the construction site that had stopped construction, Chen Xing walked to a ten-story building and stopped, looked up, Chen Xing's tightened brows never loosened, and turned his head to look at Zhou Fangyu, director of the Finance Bureau, Chen Xing frowned and said, "Director Zhou, can't the city's finance squeeze out funds?" β
"Mayor Chen, I can't squeeze out the money now, and the projects that Secretary Ge and Vice Mayor Li are focusing on are about to be launched, and they will need tens of billions of funds at that time, so they really can't free up money." Zhou Fangyu complained to Chen Xing, he, the director of the financial bureau, has no choice, he can't give birth to money without money, the leader hinted that the construction of affordable housing will be temporarily stopped, and if the funds are abundant next month, it will continue, but Zhou Fangyu can only smile bitterly, and the finance will never be abundant.
"Yes, what Director Zhou means is that my words are not working." Chen Xing stared at Zhou Fangyu.
"Mayor Chen, I didn't mean that, mainly because the funds for those big projects were budgeted in advance, so it was not easy to move." Zhou Fangyu's heart tightened, and seeing that Chen Xing was unhappy, he hurriedly explained that it was not a wise move to clearly contradict Chen Xing, the acting mayor.
"The task of building affordable housing this year was issued by the province at the end of last year, so isn't the funds for the construction of affordable housing budgeted in advance?" Chen Xing stared at Zhou Fangyu aggressively.
Zhou Fangyu, who was asked about the point, could only smile awkwardly, Chen Xing asked about this, what excuse did he use to prevaricate, and he really offended Chen Xing to death.
Chen Xing ignored the other party anymore, standing on the construction site and not knowing what he was thinking.
"How can the construction of affordable housing be stopped, this is a major event related to people's livelihood." Suddenly, Chen Xing sighed helplessly, he whispered to himself when he said this, and the people next to him didn't hear it clearly, Chen Xing couldn't understand why Ge Jianming wanted to sacrifice the construction of affordable housing first to ensure the launch of large projects, maybe this is the difference in everyone's political philosophy, Chen Xing can only think so.
After turning around the construction site, Chen Xing's brows never let go, and he was more helpless in his heart, in the final analysis, he still didn't have enough power at hand, all he needed was power! If he is now in Ge Jianming's position, it is just a matter of one sentence to let these unfinished affordable housing projects continue to start. Urban tycoon 555
The pursuit of power and the pursuit of the official hat on the head should sometimes not only be said to enjoy the benefits and benefits brought by power, but in fact, it can also better serve the people.
Power, in itself, is a double-edged sword, which can be used well for the benefit of the people, and if it is used correctly, it will go astray.
Chen Xing's thoughts in his heart are only known to him, and as he walked all the way on the construction site, Chen Xing's face was very pale
Yan sΓΉ, the others saw Chen Xing with a strained face, and they were all quiet, Zhou Fangyu, director of the Finance Bureau, looked around from time to time, he didn't care much about the construction of this affordable housing, anyway, it was nothing to do, his family, friends, relatives, nephews, and even seven aunts and eight aunts came to live, they didn't need to live in this kind of affordable housing, and he didn't bother to care, there is actually money in the city now, but it is useful, the sad thing is that Chen Xing, the acting mayor, can't move those funds, Ge Jianming won't say it, here in Zhou Fangyu, Li Hao's batches of strips are better than Chen Xing's, and Chen Xing, the acting mayor, is still very weak.
"Chen Xing, has Huang Ming contacted you?" When he was on the construction site, Chen Xing received a call from He Li, and all morning, He Li couldn't get through Huang Ming's phone, and even He Li felt strange at this time, because Huang Ming also lived in the Nanzhou Hotel, and they were separated by one floor, and she also went up to knock on Huang Ming's door, but there was no one inside.
"No, what's the matter?" Chen Xing asked suspiciously.
"It's nothing, I just can't contact him, this kid's phone has been turned off, I went to knock on his door, there was no one in the room, strange, I don't know if he came back last night."
"You go and ask the front desk of the hotel and turn down the surveillance." Chen Xing smiled, "But nothing should happen, this kid may be chic, he can still lose a big man." β
"Yes." He Li smiled and nodded, "Then it's nothing, I'll call you and ask, then that's the case first, I'll go downstairs to the hotel and ask." β
Chen Xing hung up the phone and called Zhou Fangyu, the director of the Finance Bureau, to him again, "Director Zhou, you have to think of more ways to squeeze out funds as much as possible, and pay the wages owed to the workers first, this is a very important matter, this is the most bitter group, even if we can't pay the wages ourselves, we can't owe the wages of the workers." β
"Mayor Chen, I try my best, the workers are indeed very bitter." Zhou Fangyu nodded, but he sneered in his heart, and said that this young acting mayor is quite good at showmanship.
Chen Xing took a group of people to walk a few affordable housing construction sites, all of which were temporarily stopped because of the shortage of funds, Chen Xing was in a heavy mood, at this point, Ge Jianming disagreed with him, without Ge Jianming's support, Chen Xing's words did not play much role in this matter, unless Ge Jianming nodded, otherwise the Finance Bureau would not lend money to the construction project of affordable housing.
Thinking of Zhou Fangyu's words just now, Chen Xing was very unhappy, he was the number one in the municipal government, what he said was not as good as Li Haocheng, and the money of the municipal finance, he, the acting mayor, could not move, what a sad thing.
"The financial power must be grasped." Chen Xingxin
secretly read a sentence. Urban tycoon 555
At noon, Chen Xing had dinner with Chu Rong and He Li, and all three of them called Huang Ming again, but Huang Ming's mobile phone was still turned off, plus He Li asked the hotel front desk, and went to check the hotel monitoring to see, Huang Ming didn't come back at all last night, and even Chen Xing felt a little abnormal, Huang Ming didn't come back all night, and disappeared all morning, but it wasn't to be turned off all the time, could it be that something happened? But when they thought that Huang Ming was a big man, and he didn't have any enemies or anything, and it was impossible for something to happen, the three of them were a little puzzled.
Chen Xing called Zhang Ruoming again and asked Huang Ming if he went to him last night, Zhang Ruoming's answer was also negative, he had dinner with Huang Ming at noon yesterday, and he hadn't seen Huang Ming last night, Zhang Ruoming also asked Chen Xing what happened, Chen Xing could only smile bitterly and say that it was okay, and then hung up the phone.
"Huang Ming answered Miss Lu's call last night and left, and it should be Miss Lu who saw him last night, why don't you call Miss Lu and ask, Chen Xing, you should have her phone, right?" He Li looked at Chen Xing.
"I have her phone." Chen Xing nodded, He Li was right, Huang Ming saw the last person from the Lu family last night, he should have called and asked the Lu family, he forgot about it.
Soon, Chen Xing connected Lu Xiaojing's phone again, "Miss Lu, did Huang Ming go to you last night?" β
"Huang Ming?" Lu Xiaojing, who received Chen Xing's call, was surprised that the mayor would take the initiative to call her, and when she heard the name Huang Ming, she didn't react for a while, and then exclaimed, "Mayor Chen, are you talking about Mr. Huang?" β
"Yes, Mr. Huang, I want to inject capital into your hotel." Chen Xing knew that his call was sudden.
"Here, Mr. Huang came to my house and left around nine o'clock, what's the matter, what are Mayor Chen and Mr. Huang?" Lu Xiaojing had already reacted completely at this time, and she could hear that Chen Xing's name was very natural and cordial.
"Left at nine?" Chen Xing had a faint bad premonition in his heart.
"Well, he left at about nine." Lu Xiaojing affirmed.
"Okay, it's nothing, thank you, Miss Lu." After Chen Xing finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone.
"Mayor Chen, I don't know if you can take the liberty of asking, who is that Mr. Huang and you?"
"It's a friend of mine, since he answered your call and went to your house last night, there has been no news until now, the mobile phone is turned off, and the person has not returned to the hotel, so he can't be contacted." Chen Xing didn't hide anything, and this was not something unsightly.
"How so?" Lu Xiaojing exclaimed, "He really left around nine o'clock last night." β
"I believe Miss Lu's words, it's okay, Miss Lu is busy first, I'll call him later, nothing should happen." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Huang Ming did go to Lu's house last night, but he left at nine o'clock, which means that Huang Ming completely lost contact at 9 o'clock last night." Chen Xing shrugged his shoulders helplessly at Chu Rong and He Li, and comforted himself, "This kid has always been blessed with a great fortune, so there shouldn't be an accident, maybe he went to have fun somewhere and fell into the happy nest." β
After Chen Xing finished speaking, Chu Rong and He Li looked at each other and didn't say anything, and the three of them were silent for a while, but they all felt abnormal in their hearts.
"Chen Xing, your Nanzhou City is too 'chaotic', Sister Chu and I were almost kidnapped just two days after we came, no one knows if Huang Ming will have an accident, I think you should ask the Public Security Bureau to find a talent, after all, he is a big living person, and Huang Ming usually does things quite reliably, it is impossible to suddenly turn off the phone, and he hasn't told us yet." He Li said, seeing Chu Rong and Chen Xing staring at her, He Li hurriedly said, "Why do you look at me like this, I'm not a crow's mouth this time, it's just that this thing is unusual after all, just in case." β
"I agree with Xiaoli's words, Huang Ming sometimes giggles, but he has always been very steady, no matter what, he will also make a phone call to Chen Xing." Chu Rong nodded in agreement with He Li's words.
"It's okay, He Li is right this time, I'm not afraid of just in case, I'm afraid of 10,000." Chen Xing rarely didn't say anything about He Li, Huang Ming was his best buddy, and Chen Xing was also afraid that something would happen to the other party.
Chen Xing pondered for a while, picked up his mobile phone and was about to call Zhang Qingyang, but before he could call, Lu Xiaojing's phone came over again, thinking if Lu Xiaojing had any news, Chen Xing quickly picked it up.
"Mayor Chen, just now I called back to ask my father, I wanted him to see the surveillance video at the entrance of the community, but he said that he heard in the morning that there seemed to be a kidnapping case not far from the entrance of the community, and he didn't go to his heart, just now I heard what I said, he was in a hurry, and said that the person who would not be tied up was Huang Ming, and he is now ready to go to the duty room of the community to ask about the situation, and call me as soon as there is news."
"Where your family lives, I'll go over now." Chen Xing stood up suddenly.
"My home is in the Fanlong villa area." Lu Xiaojing said.
"Let's go, let's go to the Lu family's villa." Chen Xing greeted Chu Rong and He Li, and stood up without saying a word.
rushed to the Fan Long villa area where the Lu family was located, Chen Xing looked anxious, he had a premonition, something was wrong**
If you don't leave ten, it's Huang Ming, otherwise it would be impossible to still be in touch with Huang Ming. β
"This is Mayor Chen." When Lu Chenglong saw Chen Xing, he was a little excited, and because of the inconvenience of his legs, he couldn't stand up, so he could only sit and greet Chen Xing
