Chapter 44 The gold and silver cups are not as good as word of mouth
Li Xiaoning was standing next to the old man, although he also felt that Mao Qiushi was more underbeaten, but it was not appropriate for the old man to whip people in front of so many people, so he hurriedly hugged the old man and said: "Uncle, you should dissipate your anger first, this whip is for whipping donkeys, and it is not good to whip people." ”
The old man said angrily: "His grandson is not as good as a donkey!" No one has built this road for so many years, it's all bumps and ditches. Spring plowing fertilizer can't be transported, and mountain specialties can't be transported! The people are so anxious that they cry! finally ran into a good mayor and a good hall chief, and finally had hope, and was mixed up by his mother's grandson. I'm going to smoke him lightly. ”
Mao Qiu actually covered his face and jumped to his feet and said: "It's the opposite, it's the opposite, this old guy actually dares to beat me and arrest him." ”
Although Zhao Jinglun didn't know the details, he also roughly understood what was going on from the old man's words, his face suddenly sank, and he said coldly: "County Magistrate Mao, put away your county magistrate's majesty." I'd like to hear you explain the road funding first! ”
Mao Qiushi saw that Zhao Jinglun was angry, and immediately changed his face, and said with a smile: "Director Zhao, that's the case. Our Dongping County is an economically underdeveloped county, and the streets of the county have not been renovated for many years, which affects the appearance of the city, and also has an impact on the overall image of Binhai City and Jiangdong Province. This time, the Department of Transportation allocated 30 million yuan to Dongping County to repair roads, and I want to use this fund where it is most needed. Build all the middle roads in the county into green belts......"
Zhao Jinglun's face became more and more ugly with Mao Qiushi's report, and before Mao Qiushi finished speaking, Zhao Jinglun interrupted him: "County Magistrate Mao, I'll correct you a mistake first." First, this fund was allocated to Pingshan Town, not to Dongping County. ”
Mao Qiushi was still not enlightened, and continued: "Pingshan Town is also a part of Dongping County, and I will give up my small family to take care of everyone in the future, after all, the county needs this fund more." ”
"It's not up to you to decide where you need it most." Zhao Jinglun completely lost his good temper.
Duan Yonghong saw that the shape was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Comrade Mao Qiushi's practice of privately withholding funds in the hall is not very appropriate, but what he said also has some truth. Compared with a town and a county, after all, the county is more important. "He came purely to accompany the inspection today, thinking that it was semi-tourist, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing halfway, and he was depressed. If it was someone else, he wouldn't have come over to interject, but on one side was Li Xiaoning, who had beaten him, and on the other hand, his loyal lackey Mao Qiushi, he had to come over to speak for Mao Qiushi.
Zhao Jinglun's temper also came up, and after listening to Duan Yonghong's words, he added fuel to the fire, and said angrily: "Secretary General Duan, according to what you say, the special funds allocated by my Department of Communications can be misappropriated at will in the future?" I sue you that doing so is a violation of discipline, a bandit style, and a roadblock robbery! If you have the ability to come to the province to ask me for funds, what kind of ability is it to grab food halfway? ”
Duan Yonghong was also unhappy suddenly, in terms of level, he was actually only half a level lower than Zhao Jinglun, Zhao Jinglun just reprimanded him with a gun and a stick, although he didn't train him directly, his face was just as ugly, he had a seizure on the spot, and he was afraid that Zhao Jinglun would be completely offended, and it would be difficult to explain to Liu Qifeng and Xue Guoping when he went back. I had to shake my hand, turn around and get into the car and didn't come out, and came to a "Lao Tzu is not waiting yet!" ”
Zhao Jinglun didn't bother to deal with Duan Yonghong, so he said angrily to Mao Qiushi: "Immediately return the deducted funds to Pingshan Town, otherwise I will call Liu Qifeng directly and remove you." ”
Mao Qiushi saw that Duan Yonghong had left it alone, and he couldn't compete with Zhao Jinglun, the hall chief who held real power, so he had to nod his head again and again, and hid behind.
Luo Jun was also very happy next to him. Mao Qiushi was born as the secretary of the municipal party committee, and when he came to Dongping County, he was very strong, and he had to compete with him, the secretary of the county party committee, everywhere.
The old man also roughly understood what was going on, he stared at Zhao Jinglun with wide eyes and said, "You are the good director who allocated money to our Pingshan Town?" ”
Zhao Jinglun nodded and said, "Uncle, I allocated the money." But my surname is Zhao, not Hao. He also made a joke in passing.
"So, now the road is really going to be built?" The old man still looked a little unconvinced.
"Yes!" Zhao Jinglun nodded vigorously and said.
"Really?" The old man checked again.
"Fix it right away!" Zhao Jinglun smiled.
"Great, if the old and young masters knew about this......" The old man was a little incoherent with excitement, and he was about to kneel down as he spoke.
Zhao Jinglun hurriedly supported the old man, and said with a smile: "Uncle, don't thank me all." The biggest hero is still your Mayor Li! As he spoke, he pointed at Li Xiaoning with his hand.
"You're the new Mayor Lee?" The old man looked at Li Xiaoning with wide eyes again, he couldn't believe that the young man in front of him, who didn't look a few years older than his grandson, was actually the mayor of the town.
Li Xiaoning nodded and said, "Uncle, I am Li Xiaoning." ”
"You're sure you'll fix this road for us?" The old man still couldn't believe that happiness came so suddenly.
"Don't worry! Uncle! Li Xiaoning nodded vigorously and said, "If this road is not repaired, the car will be trapped inside, and everyone can lift it out, if this person's heart is trapped inside......
"Good, good! There is your sentence...... Now we have to carry this car out like the gun cart that carried the Eighth Road back then! You wait. The old man said excitedly. After speaking, he said to a few villagers behind him, "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry back to the village and call someone, every household is called." ”
Soon, the villagers came one after another, and a large area of black pressure did not have umbrellas, and the cold rain could not stop their high enthusiasm.
Looking at the simple faces, Zhao Jinglun was also excited, he pushed away the umbrella that Director Fang held for him, stepped forward, crossed his waist with his left hand, waved his right hand, and said loudly: "Folks, I came to Pingshan Town today, and the car was stuck in this muddy field, only to know that I was late and made the villagers suffer!" …… In order to express my apologies, I decided to pursue another 10 million road repair funds from Pingshan Town! ”
Zhao Jinglun may have really been emotional, and he actually shed tears, coupled with the rain on his forehead, he poured eleven tearful images. Li Xiaoning's heart moved, and he hurriedly raised his mobile phone with a "click" and took a close-up of Zhao Jinglun.
The villagers' palms are red, they are really happy, they finally don't have to go down the bad road anymore, and finally have the opportunity to live a good life. Li Xiaoning took the opportunity to step forward and said: "Folks, Director Zhao got stuck in the mud in order to come to see us, how about we carry the car out together!" ”
The villagers responded violently, stepped forward one after another, and got the car out of the mud pit in three times and two clicks, but the villagers still refused to let go, and everyone shouted "Old and young masters, hey, hey!" Lift it up, go forward, hey, hey......... "I was stunned and lifted the car forward for another one or two hundred meters, until it was too pothole-ridden before letting it go.
The old man walked up to Zhao Jinglun and said, "Okay, director, please get in the car, on the road behind, our old and young masters will carry you away." ”
Zhao Jinglun's tears came down again, he was really moved, he didn't actually do anything, he was actually loved by the people. Only today did he truly realize the true meaning of "the gold and silver cups are not as good as the reputation of the common people". The kind of satisfaction that the common people have done in his heart is by no means something that can be replaced by any other thing.
Satisfied, of course, Zhao Jinglun would never really sit in the car and let the people carry him forward, he made a wise decision: walk the rest of the way.
Zhao Jinglun didn't take the car, and the others were not easy to sit, so they had to accompany him, so there was a strange scene of hundreds of people walking in front and more than a dozen cars slowly following behind on the road in Pingshan Town.
At noon, Li Xiaoning arranged for Zhao Jinglun and his entourage to have a hundred family banquets at the "Pingshan Hotel". The people around the town government, a family came up with a dish, although it was a very simple dish, but it also made Zhao Jinglun feel very happy to eat, especially the wild vegetables.
After the meal, Li Xiaoning took Zhao Jinglun and his party up the hillside, stood on the top of the mountain and pointed to the bottom of the mountain and said: "I want to ask the chief to come here again in three years, this place will be completely different in three years, this qiē thanks to the chief for building this road for us!" "He is actually filming Zhao Jinglun's sycophant, but this sycophant is not offensive at all.
Zhao Jinglun said with a smile on his face: "Xiaoning! You have a lot of hills in your breast. Qu Cai is the mayor of this small place. How about coming to the Department of Transportation, immediately solve the deputy director level, and I will take you to the position of director within three years. ”
If Zhao Jinglun took care of Li Xiaoning before because of his aura of "the son-in-law of the provincial party secretary", at this moment, he really took a fancy to Li Xiaoning's talent and wanted to recruit talents.
Everyone looked at Li Xiaoning's eyes and was full of envy and jealousy, the Department of Transportation is a full oil and water department, and he became the deputy director of the Department of Transportation in his twenties, which is a good thing that many people can't dream of!
Then, to everyone's surprise, Li Xiaoning actually refused. He smiled and said, "Thank you, chief, for your kindness, but now Pingshan Town has just started to start, and the road has not been repaired yet." I can't do the kind of thing that comes out of politics and leaves. Then the people will point at my backbone and scold my mother. ”
Li Xiaoning's refusal made Zhao Jinglun look at him even more, and he patted Li Xiaoning's shoulder hard and said, "Okay." Very good. It seems that I still underestimate you, you are really a good official with the people in your heart. After speaking, he added, "Anyway, when you want to come to the traffic department, come to me at any time, my promise has always been valid." ”
Zhao Jinglun and his entourage returned satisfied, and the appropriation was quickly in place, and Li Xiaoning officially plunged into the matter of building the road. After the preliminary survey of the design institute, the design drawings were quickly released, and the construction team also drove into the site and began to level the roadbed.
Just when everything was going on in an orderly manner, something happened again.
