Chapter 2076: Financial Difficulties

Since receiving Zhu Daidong's instructions, Shen Tianyi has conducted an investigation of all the city's education departments, especially schools in remote areas, which are the key targets of investigation. Huawu City is a big education city, in addition to primary and secondary schools, there are dozens of well-known colleges and universities in Central China and even the whole country. Zhu Daidong carefully told him that he must give full play to Huawu City's advantages in education, and even become a new growth point for Huawu City's economic development.

In fact, since Zhu Daidong was just transferred to Huawu City, Shen Tianyi, the director of education, immediately became the object of attention. And the entire education system in Huawu City is like a doping, and all of them have become excited. Everyone knows that Zhu Daidong is a teacher and attaches great importance to education work. Regardless of whether he is in Muchuan or Jiaosui, he has engaged in teacher salary subsidies, and now that Zhu Daidong has come to Huawu City, he will definitely do the same. It can be said that all the educators in Huawu City are looking forward to it.

Of course, the food must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step, and Zhu Daidong has made it clear that starting with teachers in non-central urban areas, starting with those ordinary schools. As for those key schools, excellent teachers are among the second batch of subsidies. But even so, more than 12,000 people entered the first batch of subsidy lists. Every month, more than 10 million yuan is needed for the teacher's salary subsidy alone.

However, when he prepared the relevant reports and submitted them to the Finance Bureau for planning, he was told that the teacher's salary subsidy was unplanned, and it would cost hundreds of millions of yuan a year, and the municipal finance could not come up with the money at all. Shen Tianyi had no choice but to go to the city government and report to the main deputy mayor first, but the deputy mayor in charge pushed the matter to the executive vice mayor Liu Suifeng. But Liu Suifeng's attitude is the same as Shen Tian's, even if the teacher's salary subsidy is Mayor Zhu's intention, it will have to wait until next year.

"Comrade Tianyi. You also know that the city's finances are very difficult, and now it has to come up with more than 10 million yuan a month, and to be honest, it really can't afford it. In addition, Song Jiangfeng of the Health Bureau is also reaching out to ask for money. I'm going to engage in free medical care for all, I'm the God of Wealth, and I can't make money. Liu Suifeng stretched out his hands and said helplessly.

"But this is what Mayor Zhu agreed." Shen Tianyi said that the teacher's salary subsidy is a matter of time, and he believes that no matter how difficult it is, Mayor Zhu will overcome it.

"I said Comrade Tianyi, as Mayor Zhu's subordinates, we can't always make trouble for the leaders. Although Mayor Zhu was in Jiao Sui. Teachers' salaries have also been subsidized. But can the situation in Huawu City be compared with Jiao Sui? If Huawu City is an aircraft carrier, Jiao Sui is at most a small sailing ship. What can be done in Jiaosui may not be able to be done well in Huawu City. Liu Suifeng said bitterly.

"But ......" Shen Tianyi was in a hurry, and it can be imagined how much disappointment people in the education system would have if this policy could not be implemented. And how much resentment will there be? In the future, as the director of education, will he, dare to inspect the work of the following schools?

"Don't. In this way, we need to solve problems for leaders, rather than adding to the blockage. I will report your matter to Mayor Zhu, but now that you have seen the city's finances, you must also understand the difficulties in the city. The city will study the problems of the Education Bureau. But your list is so big that I think we'll cut it in half. Liu Suifeng said.

"Okay." Shen Tianyi said helplessly that he knew that Xiao Liusha, the director of the Finance Bureau, had a good relationship with Liu Suifeng, and if Liu Suifeng agreed. There will certainly be no problem with the Finance Bureau.

But just when Shen Tianyi left the city government, Zhu Daidong asked Jiang Yanbin to inform Xiao Liusha to come to the city that he wanted to listen to the work report of the Finance Bureau. When Xiao Liusha received the notice, his heart moved. Last night, Liu Suifeng specially called him, talked about the list of teachers' salary subsidies organized by the Education Bureau, and asked about the city's financial expenditure. He heard the sound of the strings and knew what he meant, and this morning he did not agree to the education bureau's teacher's salary subsidy. But I didn't expect that within a day, Mayor Zhu would ask about this matter.

"Mayor Zhu, this morning, the Education Bureau has sent over the teacher salary subsidy plan, but this year's fiscal deficit in the city has exceeded 300 million, I wonder if we will wait for next year's fiscal relaxation?" After Xiao Liusha finished reporting, he looked at Zhu Daidong's face and asked.

"Isn't it going to be a new year soon?" Zhu Daidong said lightly that the finance is about the Gregorian calendar, and starting from New Year's Day, it will be the next fiscal year.

"Mayor Zhu, the Education Bureau has reported more than 12,000 indicators, and the annual subsidy is more than 100 million, and this is only the first batch, if the city carries out teacher salary subsidies every year, the financial expenditure is at least more than 200 million, which is a heavy burden." Xiao Liusha said, and from next year, Huawu City is also preparing to engage in free compulsory education, which requires a lot of money, and he, the director of the Finance Bureau, is already stretched and unable to complete the task.

"You mean that the Treasury can't come up with the money?" Zhu Daidong asked.

"Judging from the current situation, it is very difficult to get it." Xiao Liusha said.

"Okay, you go back first, I'll find someone who can afford to be the director of the financial bureau." Zhu Daidong said lightly.

"Mayor Zhu! I will try my best to ensure that from next month, the subsidy fee from the Education Bureau will be transferred. Xiao Liusha stood up and said nervously. Zhu Daidong's voice was low, but powerful, and there was no doubt about it. He believes that Zhu Daidong has this ability and this ability, and he can take away himself as the director of the financial bureau.

"Why, didn't you say it would be hard to get the money?" Zhu Daidong asked rhetorically.

"I can still squeeze it out if I think of a way." Xiao Liusha said with a sad face, he was going to be stroked, where would he care about Liu Suifeng's advice. In fact, as early as when Zhu Daidong first took office, he explained to him that education, health, and food safety all need financial investment from the city, so that he could prepare early.

"You are the big housekeeper in the city, you must have your own position, and you can't deduct a penny of the money you should use. You can't spend any money you shouldn't use. Zhu Daidong commanded.

"We must follow Mayor Zhu's instructions and strictly abide by the fiscal policy." Xiao Liusha said busily.

When he walked out of Zhu Daidong's office, Xiao Liusha felt that his back was wet, and when he touched his hand, it was full of cold sweat. When passing by Liu Suifeng's office, Xiao Liusha paused for a moment, but soon, he walked forward, unswerving, never looking back.
