In the office of the secretary of the county party committee, Zheng Jianjun, who had just read the documents on the ideological and political work of the central authorities for an hour, was leaning on the broad leadership chair and closing his eyes to recuperate, while at the same time reviewing his glorious life and looking forward to the future.

Last year, Wangxi unexpectedly won a big victory near the end of the year, winning the 7 billion pharmaceutical factory project of the Dream Group, so that Wangxi's GDP growth rate last year reached an astonishing 28%, reversing the tragic situation of GDP growth at the bottom of the city in one fell swoop, and instead became the first in terms of growth rate.

However, in addition to being excited for a while at the beginning, Secretary Zheng was immediately in a mood for a while by the more severe financial situation. Zheng Jianjun, who calmed down, knew very well that winning the pharmaceutical factory project was just an accident, and it was impossible to have such a beautiful opportunity this year. In fact, even if he can pull a similar big project this year and make the GDP growth rate higher again, Zheng Jianjun is not in the mood to continue to do it. The county's finances are too bad, and the mess is too serious to be reversed by manpower. Not to mention anything else, just 50 days have passed on New Year's Day this year, and the county's 8 billion financial budget has already used up 2.3 billion, which is naturally to solve some of the old problems that have been backlogged before, and the most money is spent at the beginning of the year, and even if the 40 billion foreign debt is not repaid, the heavy interest of 2.5 billion is enough for the county to eat a big pot, and the remaining 3 billion is slightly more, and it is necessary to deal with various expenses in the county for the next 10 long months.

Not to mention the construction projects, there are 45,000 people in the county alone, of whom 20,000 are teachers. 5,000 people are civil servants, and there are also 20,000 support workers of various types who eat financial meals. Thanks to its former glory, Wangxi's salary and benefits are quite high, with an average of 6,000 yuan per person per month for civil servants, nearly 5,000 yuan for teachers, and 3,500 yuan for the rest of the auxiliary staff. In other words, they would need $200 million a month to pay their salaries, and a total of $2 billion over the next 10 months, accounting for more than half of the remaining disposable budget.

Last year, the county also owed five months' salaries to teachers and auxiliary personnel who ate financial meals, and three months' salaries to civil servants, adding up to 900 million yuan. In other words, the remaining budget for this year is only enough to pay salaries and pay back wages, and nothing else needs to be done. And a county has a myriad of related departments, all of which require a considerable amount of funds to maintain the most basic operations. For example, the public security bureau is absolutely indispensable for several hundred million yuan a year, and that has a bearing on the overall situation of social stability, and the secretary of the county party committee must bear the main leadership responsibility if something goes wrong. Not to mention the fact that a large number of other departments are by no means decorations, they must be operated, not to mention the large amount of unresolved funds that have been shelved in previous years.

All in all, the work of county finance is not at all capable of human beings, unless they are immortals.

Zheng Jianjun is really fed up. Although he was not directly in charge of the finances, he served as a secretary. Leadership responsibilities are always indispensable. Thinking of the deputy county magistrate of the county government, he is no less nerve-wracking than himself, a 50-year-old person, his hair has turned gray, and he was admitted to the hospital a few days ago. Zheng Jianjun couldn't help but feel a little relieved, he usually didn't suffer from the coup of this soil emperor with a background. A dignified secretary often fails to control the situation of the Standing Committee, and in the end he often acts according to Deputy County Magistrate He's wishes. Secretary Zheng really hoped that Deputy County Magistrate He would never be discharged from the hospital, but after calming down, he felt that the county was still inseparable from Deputy County Magistrate He. Without him, the work in the county would have collapsed long ago. Of course, this year's situation is too grim, even if Deputy County Magistrate He is bullish, it is estimated that he will not be able to survive by the middle of the year, and the financial crisis will break out in full swing. It is no wonder that Deputy County Magistrate He was hospitalized with illness.

Opening his eyes and looking at the lifelike picture of a huge horse galloping on the snow-white wall, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of Zheng Jianjun's mouth. Soon, everything here has nothing to do with me. He has already gone through the relationship with the old leader very covertly, is actively operating, and is expected to be transferred to another prefecture-level city in the province to serve as deputy mayor, which can be regarded as a success. At least, the unprecedented growth rate of Wangxi's GDP last year was achieved under his leadership, which is his strong political capital, as long as he jumps out of the big fire pit of Wangxi, the future is still unlimited. As for how bad Wangxi will be in the future and how to clean it up, Secretary Zheng really doesn't want to think about it, the predecessors here are all brilliant, and it is too unfair for him to clean up the super mess left behind. I hope that in the future, a man of God will clean it up.

The key now is to ensure that there is no major turmoil in the county before the transfer, and to ensure the stability of the county. Thinking of this, Zheng Jianjun's heart couldn't help but tighten, the large amount of wages owed by 45,000 people who ate financial meals last year was an out-and-out regular bomb, which could explode at any time. Zheng Jianjun did not dare to be the master at all, nor could he do it, and he never submitted it to the Standing Committee for discussion, and if the discussion had to be fruitful, he could not bear the responsibility. Since the finance is in charge of Deputy County Magistrate He, it is better for him to find a scapegoat if something goes wrong. In case something goes wrong, Zheng Jianjun can only calmly accept the fate of losing his political future, and it is better to be transferred to the National People's Congress or the Political Consultative Conference to retire, which is much more comfortable than being set up in this big fire pit and baking every day. And those directly responsible will end up much more tragically, and it is likely to be thoroughly investigated by Shuanggui and then completely finished. All in all, for financial issues, Zheng Jianjun can not touch it, and try to keep a distance.

However, it is a strange thing that the Finance Bureau has been taken over by the new deputy county magistrate Gu Yang.

Zheng Jianjun's initial impression of the deputy county magistrate when he met three days ago was that he was very young, very energetic, and had the vigorous momentum of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. Thinking back then, Secretary Zheng himself was not like this, but the years were ruthless, the situation was unforgiving, no matter how energetic, he would soon be tossed by the big fire pit of Wangxi without a little temper, Secretary Zheng held the mentality of watching the play, and wanted to see how the deputy county magistrate Gu quickly became discouraged from being full of ambition, and by comparison, his mood would be much better and less lost.

As for the dazzling first place that Gu Yang had previously won in the Provincial Party School, Zheng Jianjun did not think so, that kind of theoretical achievement had no practical significance, and it was useless to the extremely bad situation in Wangxi. What is most needed here is real money. And not rhetoric. Of course, Zheng Jianjun also heard the legend, it is said that Gu Yang's background in the province is quite deep, and his origin is not small. Zheng Jianjun is also very unimpressed with this, no matter how good the relationship is, can he still bring a gold mountain to Wangxi? 40 billion foreign debts and 30 billion domestic debts. That is far beyond the annual budget of an ordinary prefecture-level city, and even the son of the finance minister cannot reverse it, not to mention that the financial allocation is still subject to strict institutional restrictions, so there is no way to mess around. If every place has difficulties and cries poverty to the central government, then it will be okay.

In short, Zheng Jianjun didn't think that Gu Yang's arrival had any practical significance, except for helping Deputy County Magistrate He to be a scapegoat. Thinking that such a promising young cadre was about to be buried in the fire pit of Wangxi, Zheng Jianjun couldn't help but feel a little regretful. I felt deeply sad for the elders who sent this young man here, and his vision was too bad, and he was really fooled by Wangxi's GDP growth rate last year, which was the first in the city.

However, it is impossible for Zheng Jianjun to remind him that things in the officialdom mainly have to rely on himself to understand. How can you see the sunshine without experiencing ups and downs? Thinking that he was about to get a dazzling new life, Secretary Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief again. Knowing how to take advantage of opportunities is the real king of officialdom. Secretary Zheng is so grateful to Dream Group. That pharmaceutical project is really very timely, and God is favoring it.

Hold on for another month or two. As long as it passes smoothly, everything will be fine!

"Bang ......"

The knock on the door interrupted Zheng Jianjun's reverie, and he immediately put on a serious expression and said majestically: "Come in!" ”

The door opened, and a dignified woman in her thirties walked in, with a beautiful face. is also in good shape, but Dong Sisi, director of the office of the county party committee, is also a member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee.

"Secretary Zheng." Dong Sisi complained angrily as he walked over, "That newcomer Gu Yang is really lawless, and he dares to make his own opinions." Zeng Youcai, who directly went through the Finance Bureau, transferred 500 million yuan in arrears of wages to the Education Bureau to Huang Kun of the Education Bureau last year, and now most of them have been transferred to the teachers' salary cards, and it is impossible to recover them. Gu Yang's behavior is a serious act of disorganization and undiscipline, and he simply does not take the county party committee and the party group of the county government into account, and the standing committee must be convened immediately to deal with this matter seriously! ”

"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed on Zheng Jianjun's face, but he immediately regained his serious expression, "How did you know about this?" ”

"The Finance Bureau has a lot of money, and the county party committee has come to complain." Dong Sisi sat down uninvited, and said excitedly: "He said that if Gu Yang threatened him to refuse, he asked Huang Kun to send a notice to the county's education system, saying that the county party committee and county government agreed to pay the arrears of wages, but he really had a lot of money and resolutely refused. Qian Zhenduo could only say that he neither agreed nor refused, and then Gu Yang directly announced that he would hand over the execution of the appropriation to Zeng Youcai, and claimed that he was in charge of the finances, so he had to be in charge. Secretary Zheng, Gu Yang is simply barbaric and domineering when he does this, and he doesn't take the rules seriously at all. You have to take it seriously! How can our county's finances withstand such a toss, and if we do this, we will not be able to survive this year. Saying that, Director Dong was filled with righteous indignation and worry.

Zheng Jianjun nodded slightly, "I know." Let the county government deal with this matter first, and wait for the county magistrate He to come back. ”

Dong Sisi was a little surprised by Secretary Zheng's reaction, "Isn't this okay?" ”

"That's it." Zheng Jianjun was a little stern, "There's nothing else, you can go out first." In addition, don't call others by their names in the future, you are a member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee, and your ideological consciousness should be higher. ”

"Got it, Secretary Zheng." Dong Sisi retreated abruptly and closed the door.

As soon as Dong Sisi left, Zheng Jianjun's forehead immediately wrinkled, what kind of rhythm is this? That young man was too pushy, wasn't he? He, Zheng Jianjun, is also a person with a conscience, if he has money, how can he be in arrears of teachers' salaries, which makes everyone angry. It's just that the county finance really doesn't have money, and there is no way to do this, and he, the secretary, really doesn't have the right to allocate money, so Deputy County Magistrate He has the final say. However, Deputy County Magistrate He is in the hospital...... Thinking about it, Secretary Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, it was really a coincidence. Deputy County Magistrate He's super financial general, Qian Zhenduo, actually failed to control the money bag, and was forced to get the money away by Gu Yang.

But since it has come to this point, Zheng Jianjun naturally cannot hold Gu Yang responsible, but on behalf of the county party committee and county government, the salary paid to the majority of teachers, conform to the will of the people, and investigate Gu Yang's responsibility, will inevitably arouse a high degree of enthusiasm and support from the majority of teachers, then even if something happens, his promotion and transfer will become a bubble. In the past, in order to appease the mood of the teachers who were owed wages, the county sent a large number of working groups to various schools, but they did a lot of ideological work, and this will not be wasted.

In any case, this kind of thing that offends the majority of the people is still left to the county government to deal with, and the county magistrate Yin Jie can't always put it on display. However, Zheng Jianjun can estimate that the slippery county magistrate Yin will definitely not come out of this way, and in the end, this matter will still fall on the head of Deputy County Magistrate He. Anyway, the financial power has been controlled by Deputy County Magistrate He, so it's good to let him have a headache. Thinking about it, Secretary Zheng couldn't help but feel a long-lost refreshment, and let the new deputy county magistrate Gu feel sorry for Deputy County Magistrate He, background to background, strong dragon to ground snake, it's really a bit of a look. Secretary Zheng has been aggrieved for a long time, although he is ready to be transferred, he is still angry, of course he hopes to put Deputy County Magistrate He in order. This stunned Gu deputy county magistrate is really a good gun, and it is not bad for him to rush to the front.

The deputy county magistrate who was in the center of the whirlpool didn't bother to pay attention to Secretary Zheng's careful thoughts, he got off work 15 minutes early as usual, carried a stack of reports asking for money in his schoolbag, and went out directly downstairs towards the parking lot, ready to take it home and continue to read. Wangxi County, where I go to work, is 25 kilometers away from Jiangxia City, and it takes about 30 minutes to get off the highway from the county to the next highway, and it takes 15 minutes to drive off the highway to reach home, which is still relatively smooth without traffic jams. Although he can secretly drive the car to a place where no one notices, and directly teleport people to a place near his house that no one notices, Gu Yang will not do this when he is not in a hurry. He is now able to concentrate on two things, thinking about problems while driving without any problems, and the distance from work is just right to strategize, and there is no waste of time.
