162, to Wangxi new official to take office (first change)
After patiently reading another stack of reports asking for money from various departments, Gu Yang rubbed his temples, looked up at the spacious and bright office, and a helpless wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He has been in the Wangxi County Government for three days, except when he first arrived, accompanied by Director Xiao of the Second Division of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, and meeting members of the leading group of the county government (He Guangyuan, executive deputy county magistrate, who was absent due to illness), as well as Zheng Jianjun, secretary of the county party committee, and Wei Dezhi, director of the organization department of the county party committee, he has been staying in this office without leaving home. Naturally, Lord Gu teleported to Wang Shiya most of the time to work with the leader, and only when Wang Shiya was out, he was in his office. In addition to earning merit points, it has also become a habit, and two people are indeed more enthusiastic about work together.
The various reports that were handed over were half a meter high, but they didn't make Gu Yang's head bigger, and he felt more deeply the ancient precept of being in charge, in which the money for various reports ranged from hundreds of thousands to billions, but the main part was at the level of millions. The reason why there are so many reports is the result of several years of accumulation and not being dealt with in a timely manner, and the out-and-out super mess is the truest portrayal of Wangxi's financial crisis in recent years. According to the statistics handed over, all these reports require nearly 30 billion yuan, and with this year's budget of only 8 billion yuan and 40 billion yuan in foreign debt, it is simply an astronomical figure that cannot be satisfied. Of course, some of them are image projects of large-scale civil engineering, which can be ignored for the time being, but more of them are old accounts that must be paid. Although Guyang's group has strong financial resources, it is impossible to directly pay for the government, and all kinds of new investment projects are unlikely to be immediately effective. As for asking for money from the Ministry of Finance. That's going to have to be a serious project, and it's not going to be a lot. And it needs to be used for projects, not to fill the financial holes.
In a word. Even Gu Yang, who is fully mentally prepared and has strong confidence, feels a lot of pressure, and 40 billion foreign debts and 30 billion domestic debts are by no means something that can be easily dealt with. Now, these messes that have been passed down from generation to generation by previous predecessors are officially handed over to Gu Yang. However, headache after headache, Gu Yang is still enthusiastic, he will find a way to deal with this mess, but there is no doubt that the premise is that the finances must be in his hands. He couldn't have made a wedding dress for someone else!
"Dudu Dudu......" The landline rang, Gu Yang glanced at the caller ID, it was Li Hao, the deputy director of the office, who called, this teacher took office on the same day as him, and quickly integrated into the new job, and his adaptability is still quite strong.
Gu Yang grabbed the phone, "Director Li, is there something wrong?" β
Li Hao pondered and said: "Comrade Huang Kun, director of the Education Bureau, came to find you, the county magistrate, I don't know if you are free?" β
Gu Yang used the system to see that Huang Kun was already there with Li Hao. He said, "Let Director Huang come up."
"Okay......
Putting down the phone, Gu Yang rubbed his temples again, he has been rare and quiet in the past three days, and he has just taken office. No instructions have been given yet, and everyone is waiting and watching. Now that someone has finally come to the door, naturally nothing good happens. The first one to come looking for trouble. Courage is still quite commendable.
Education Secretary Huang Kun is 45 years old and has been on the frontline of education for many years. I have been a teacher and a principal. Later, he was transferred to the education administrative organ, and after hard work, he was finally promoted to the position of director, and he can be regarded as a diligent and commendable figure, and he is a centrist in Guyang's intelligence mark, and he does not tend to any faction.
Director Huang came here today to urge the new deputy county magistrate Gu and hope that he can prompt the county party committee to convene a standing committee as soon as possible to discuss and resolve the problem of arrears of teachers' salaries. Last year, the county owed 20,000 teachers in the county five months' salaries, accumulating nearly 500 million, which is a very large amount of money. Wangxi is not a poor county, it used to be relatively wealthy, so the salary of teachers is relatively high, with an average of more than 4,000 yuan per month.
Although he knew that there was no hope, Huang Kun was still driven by a sense of responsibility to urge the new young deputy county magistrate, how could he not keep it aside, at least there must be an explanation. The county party committee has been shelving the issue of teachers' salaries for a long time, and it has not been discussed at the Standing Committee.
Huang Kun followed Deputy Director Li Hao to the office of the deputy county magistrate in Guyang, Li Hao knocked twice lightly, and Gu Yang, who had already opened the lock in advance, said, "Please come in." β
Li Hao opened the door, led Huang Kun into the door, and introduced: "County Magistrate Gu, this is Comrade Huang Kun, director of the County Education Bureau. β
Rao heard that the new deputy county magistrate Gu was very young, and Huang Kun was still shocked after seeing the real person, such a young important cadre is really a wonder, and he came to Wangxi, a super fire pit to be in charge of finance, I really don't know what the boss thinks.
Huang Kun greeted politely: "Hello, County Magistrate Gu." β
Gu Yang nodded and pointed to the seat across the desk, "Director Huang, please take a seat." β
Li Hao made a cameo appearance as a secretary, helped pour a glass of water for Huang Kun, and then said goodbye and closed the door and left.
"Tell me what's the matter?" Seeing that Huang Kun didn't speak for a while, Gu Yang took the initiative to speak.
Huang Kun pondered for a moment and said: "I came for the county's 20,000 teachers who were owed 5 months' wages last year, and I hope that County Magistrate Gu can urge the county party committee to convene a standing committee to discuss this issue as soon as possible, at least there must be an explanation." I know that the county's finances are very tight now, but the number of teachers is very large, and the arrears of wages have a great impact, so it would be good to be able to pay everyone for an emergency in a month or two. β
Gu Yang was noncommittal, "You show me the report." "Although the predecessor received several similar reports, it is natural that the report of the latest time shall prevail.
Huang Kun immediately took out the report from his briefcase and handed it over without much hope.
Gu Yang took it and quickly looked through it, the total amount was 500 million, which was indeed a headache. You must know that there are countless departments in the county, and there are places where you want to use money, and the money is really not enough to spend.
But for the teaching staff. Gu Yang attaches great importance to it, and this money can't be delayed. If you have money or not, he will send it first, and then he will pick up the pen. Directly on the report: "Comrade Qian Zhenduo, director of the Finance Bureau, is requested to immediately allocate 500 million yuan to the Education Bureau and immediately pay the county's 20,000 teachers in arrears for five months' wages last year." Deputy county magistrate of Wangxi County, Guyang! β
"Director Huang, give it, you take this to the Finance Bureau to ask for money." Gu Yang handed back the report of the instructions.
Huang Kun felt a little dizzy, what kind of rhythm is this? This leader can't just graduate from school, right? Don't even know the practice of the Standing Committee of the county party committee?
Director Huang blinked, read the instructions a few times, and was sure that it was not an illusion, so he suppressed his nervousness. "Is that okay?"
"Of course." Gu Yang was very relaxed, "What else do you want?" Okay, you hurry up and go to the Finance Bureau, and strive to transfer the money to the account today, so that you can feel at ease. If you don't hurry up, you don't know how long it will drag on. If Director Qian of the Finance Bureau disagrees, you can directly bring him and Deputy Director Zeng Youcai to me to reason! β
"Okay, I'll go ...... right away," Huang Kun said excitedly, not bothering to care about so many rules and regulations. This huge debt made him frightened all day long, and he couldn't sleep steadily, and he didn't know when he was skinned by 20,000 impassioned teachers in the county, and how exciting it was to be able to solve it immediately. Since the new Gu county magistrate doesn't know the depths. can only pit him once, and the instructions are written in black and white on the report, which is much more real than any verbal promise. Give it a try and say again!
However, Director Huang went to the Finance Bureau to ask for money very unsmoothly, and was resolutely rejected by Director Qian Zhenduo. It is child's play to claim that Deputy County Magistrate Gu is doing this. So Director Huang followed the previous explanation of the ancient county magistrate and pulled Director Qian hard. In addition, there is Deputy Director Zeng Youcai, who came to the county government again to find Guyang.
Gu Yang looked at the three deputy directors sitting opposite, "What's the matter, Director Huang?" β
Huang Kun immediately pointed at Qian Zhenduo and complained: "Director Qian disagrees with the appropriation, and says that County Magistrate Gu, it's child's play for you to do this." In order to get the money, Director Huang did not hesitate to provoke Master Gu and offend Director Qian.
Gu Yang set his eyes on Qian Zhenduo's face, and asked lightly, "Director Qian, why don't you agree?" β
Qian Zhenduo is simply speechless, is this new deputy county magistrate really stupid or super really stupid?
He replied as calmly as possible: "Our county's finances are unprecedentedly tight, and we can't afford to pay this amount. If this precedent is set, then the arrears of wages in the rest of the system will also have to be paid, and then this year's finances will be completely overdrawn. It has only been 50 days since New Year's Day, and in less than two months, the 8 billion budget has spent 2.3 billion, more than a quarter, and even if the bank principal is not repaid this year, 2.5 billion yuan of interest will still be paid. There is only 3.1 billion left, and there are 10 months and 10 days left this year, and then pay these 500 million, what do you say the county will live with in the future? β
Gu Yang disagreed: "You mean that not only can the wages owed last year not be paid, but also that you will continue to owe more this year?" The annual salary of teachers in the county needs 1.3 billion, isn't it even more unaffordable? β
Qian Zhenduo nodded: "That's the case, our county's finances have reached an unprecedented crisis, and we can only take extraordinary measures to reduce all possible expenditures!" β
Gu Yang said: "Then how about stopping your salary first?" β
Qian Zhenduo's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said: "This matter has to be decided by the county!" β
Gu Yang didn't care, and asked a little bit: "Are you sure you want to refuse to pay this money?" β
"Yes!" Qian Zhenduo replied very resolutely, he really didn't pay attention to this young cadre who had a lot of background, not everyone can come to make waves in Wangxi, Wangxi's background is very deep!
Gu Yang immediately explained to Huang Kun, director of the Education Bureau: "Director Huang, when you go back, you will immediately send a notice to the county's education system, saying that the county party committee and county government agreed to pay everyone's arrears of wages last year, but Comrade Qian Zhenduo, director of the Finance Bureau, resolutely refused to implement it!" β
"Okay!" Huang Kun, who was anxious to ask for money, replied excitedly, this move was too damaging and too desperate, so that Director Huang admired it so much, although the new deputy county magistrate did not know the severity, but this kind of energy is still very commendable, at least it is a super lucky star for the majority of teachers.
Hearing this, he was anxious when he had a lot of money, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "County Magistrate Gu, you can't cheat me like this." I insisted on this for the sake of financial sustainability. β
Gu Yang ignored him, and asked Deputy Director Zeng Youcai, who had not spoken, "Director Zeng, do you think this money should be paid?" "This cadre, who was secretly passed from the Provincial Finance Department unknowingly, has been in Wangxi for more than three months, and he doesn't know how far he has trained.
Zeng Youcai nodded: "Education can't be saved, it must be paid!" β
Gu Yang nodded and said solemnly: "Education is a hundred-year plan, and the stability of the teacher team is the top priority!" Although the county's finances have reached a difficult situation, we must not default on teachers' salaries because of this. In fact, even if wages are in arrears, the finances will not improve much. Anyway, there is no money, so give this money first! Director Qian, if you continue to refuse, I will ask Director Huang to send that notice to the whole county, and I will not give up the payment because you do not agree. β
Qian Zhenduo was forced to be anxious, but he didn't have the backbone to discuss, the boss and deputy county magistrate He was in the hospital, dizzy and swollen and didn't have the heart to answer the phone.
Director Qian Zhengse said: "County Magistrate Gu, I hope you can take all responsibility for your actions. I will not refuse, and I will not agree! β
"Good!" Gu Yang nodded, his eyes fell on Zeng Youcai's face, and he looked serious: "Director Zeng, from now on, your instructions will be fully responsible for the implementation." The county finances are now in charge of me, so I have to make the decision, you don't need to think too much about headaches, just do what I say! Of course, you have the right to disagree, and as long as the reasons are good, I am still democratic. β
Zeng Youcai felt that Deputy County Magistrate Gu's ardent eyes were full of trust, thinking of his unprecedented support for education and his bold words at all costs, Deputy Director Zeng was greatly infected, and replied firmly: "I will definitely fulfill my duties conscientiously!" "After all, do it, Zeng Youcai is just doing his best, this super mess in Wangxi, it is impossible to clean it up.
This will be a lot of money, but there is not much loss, but sincerely relieved, the super fire pit of the financial director, he is really fed up, since the new young cadre who does not know the height of the sky likes to perform, it is up to him to go. It won't be long before he will get out of class with his tail between his legs, and take the responsibility of making a mess of Wangxi's finances as a scapegoat.
What made Huang Kun extremely excited was that his dream actually came true, and with the strong cooperation of Zeng Youcai, 500 million yuan was transferred to the account of the Education Bureau in the afternoon, and he immediately began to pay the arrears of wages of teachers in the county last year by transfer. As for what to do with the county's finances in the future, Director Huang can't take care of it so much, at least he has got real money now, and it has become an established fact, and he doesn't have to worry about being skinned by the majority of teachers for the time being.
Looking at the receipt of the successful bank transfer, Director Huang still felt like he was dreaming, this process was too exaggerated. I remembered that in the past, I had to beg my grandfather to sue my grandmother for the millions of funds that I desperately needed, and it dragged on for a long time, and finally made a five or six discounts. And today, the new young deputy county magistrate dared to bypass the meeting of the Standing Committee of the county party committee and the party group of the county government, and decided to allocate funds decisively, at least that courage, so that Director Huang admired it very much, and it was indeed a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers!
Director Huang can't wait to send the incomparably exciting good news to the county's education system right awayβthe arrears of wages have been paid! The teachers waited for this day to wait until the flowers were gone, and many people were borrowing money to get by.
As for how big waves this matter will set off in the county party committee and county government, Director Huang really can't care about it. (To be continued......)
