After saying that, Yuan Chen turned his face to look out of the car window, and stopped talking, the atmosphere in the car became awkward, and Duan Zetao's heart was also clouded, and he and Yuan Chen's governing ideas had a disagreement, which undoubtedly made a crack in the seemingly harmonious cooperative relationship between the two.

Although Yuan Chen strongly opposed increasing investment in basic undertakings such as education and health, Duan Zetao recognized the character of going to do it, and when he returned to the office, he found Qian Boguang, the director of the Finance Bureau.

Qian Boguang is now proud of his eyebrows, in the past, he barely held on to the normal operation of the city's finances every day, and often made people inside and out, but now he has a thick waist and a strong body, and the municipal finance has collected more than one billion yuan in land transfer money alone, and the fiscal and tax revenues have also increased several times, which also makes him admire Duan Zetao's ability to turn decay into magic from the bottom of his heart.

And since the last time he followed Duan Zetao to the Provincial Department of Finance to ask for funds, and saw that even Tan Peisheng, the director of the Provincial Department of Finance, who had always been above the top, was respectful to him, Qian Boguang knew that Duan Zetao's background was not ordinary, and he made up his mind to follow Duan Zetao closely.

Qian Boguang knew that although Duan Zetao was very strict at work, he was still very easy-going in life, especially the people he approved were very protective of calves, just look at Fang Dongming, Hu Tielong and a few of them were diehards, so as soon as he came in, he said with a shy face: "Boss, knowing that you summoned me, I am rushing over non-stop......."

Duan Zetao glanced at Qian Boguang, he had a good impression of Qian Boguang, although he was a little slippery and his mouth was oily, but he was not confused about big things, and his ability was not bad, so he didn't deliberately correct what he called himself, he threw a special Chinese cigarette over, and scolded with a smile: "Okay, you have a "money drain", you know that the flamboyant tongue is flamboyant, now that the money bag is bulging, you have to keep a tight eye on the money bag for me, don't run it all out, every penny must be spent on the blade, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!" ……”。

Qian Boguang saw that Duan Zetao did not object to calling him "boss", so he knew that he had accepted himself into his circle of confidants, and hurriedly patted his chest to show loyalty: "Boss, you can rest assured, the expenditure of a large sum of money does not have your signature, no one wants to take out money from me to ......", said, seeing that Duan Zetao also took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, he quickly took out a lighter to help Duan Zetao light the fire.

Qian Boguang didn't smoke much, but he always carried cigarettes and lighters in his pockets, which were all for leaders, and when he saw Duan Zetao smoking, he lit the cigarette himself, but he didn't really swallow it, he just spit out the smoke ring and played, and suddenly the office was full of smoke.

The secretary is in charge of personnel, the mayor is in charge of the economy, and the mayor's power is largely reflected in the control of the financial pen, Qian Boguang's surrender undoubtedly gave Duan Zetao more bargaining chips to the control of the political situation in Shannan, he put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and said: "Boguang, I came to you today to talk about increasing investment in education and health infrastructure, you first take a budget out, and see how much it will cost to complete the renovation of all schools in the city within a year?!" In addition, if the city's educators are generally adjusted to the first-level salary, how much more money does the annual financial need to allocate to it?! ……”。

Qian Boguang's eyes widened in surprise, and he hurriedly said, "Boss, this is not a small amount?!" Although the city's finances are more abundant than before, but also can not fill this bottomless pit, now all the bureaus are staring at the city's money bags, which industry is important, must develop, this way to control, do not suffer from widowhood and unevenness, if a bowl of water is not level, the following bureaus will make a fuss, this thing is a thankless thing......".

Duan Zetao frowned, waved his hand, and said solemnly: "Education is the foundation of the country, no matter how hard it is, you can't suffer children, you naturally have to focus on support, how can this kind of thing be egalitarian?!" You don't care so much, get the budget out first, and build an extra classroom for the children is far more meaningful than adding a car to those bureaucrats, of course, provided that it does not affect the current economic development ...... Shannan."

Qian Boguang didn't dare to say anything when he saw Duan Zetao so insisting, nodded and agreed, got up and said goodbye, went back to prepare the budget, and sent Qian Boguang away, Duan Zetao found Yang Yingxue again, and talked to her about preparing to increase investment in education and health infrastructure.

Yang Yingxue was overjoyed when she saw that Duan Zetao was really true to his word, and said with a smile: "Mayor Duan, great, I thought you had forgotten your promise at the first mayor's office meeting, and were about to talk to you about it......."

Duan Zetao said with a smile: "How can I forget, education is the foundation of the country, economic development is important, but education, health can not be pulled down, as if our last survey of the city's poor schools has not been completed, you prepare, we will continue to investigate from tomorrow......."

The news of Duan Zetao's summoning of Qian Boguang and Yang Yingxue was quickly spread to Yuan Chen by someone with a heart, Yuan Chen was so angry that he got up, and said to himself with a gloomy face: "This Duan Zetao really doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't give up, since you, the mayor, don't do your job properly, and don't grasp it with a good momentum of economic development, then I, the secretary, will personally come to catch it, I still don't believe that without you Duan Zetao, the earth won't turn!" ……”。

So the officials of Shannan City have keenly discovered a strange phenomenon, Mayor Duan, who is mainly focusing on economic work, took the beautiful deputy mayor Yang Yingxue to the poor schools below every day to investigate, but usually let Duan Zetao grasp the economy, and Yuan Chen, who never interfered in government affairs, frequently went to the site of the second phase of the urban renovation project to investigate, and convened the real estate developers who won the bid to discuss, asking them to work hard and speed up the pace of Shannan New Town......

Duan Zetao came back from the investigation of poor schools in various counties, and the poor conditions of the schools below made him feel shocked, many students crowded into the crumbling and dilapidated classrooms, and did not even have a decent desk...... This scene made Duan Zetao feel very sad, and strengthened his determination to increase investment in education.

Qian Boguang quickly made a budget, and it would take about 180 million yuan to complete the renovation of all the dilapidated buildings in all schools in the city, and the city's education workers would need to allocate more than 50 million yuan more than 50 million yuan each year.

So Duan Zetao took the budget to the Standing Committee for discussion, Yuan Chen saw that Duan Zetao was so stubborn, and he didn't take himself as a secretary in his eyes at all, he was very annoyed, and before Duan Zetao finished speaking, he slapped the table hard and interrupted him: "Comrade Zetao, do you talk about organizational procedures?!" Is there still me in the eyes?! Why don't you discuss such a major matter as increasing the education investment budget at the secretary's office meeting first, and directly bring it to the Standing Committee for discussion? ! ……”。

Duan Zetao naturally knew that Yuan Chen was uncomfortable, and the reason why he directly took this budget to the Standing Committee for discussion was that he hoped to implement this budget as soon as possible, so he was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Secretary Yuan, have you forgotten?" I have already reported this matter to you on the way back from the provincial capital last time, and you yourself said that you would discuss it at the Standing Committee......."

Yuan Chen forgot about this stubble, and was speechless for a while, and his heart was even more annoyed, and he waved his hand and said: "Then let's discuss, let me remind you that the main task of Shannan City at present is to develop the economy, we can't make a little bit of progress and our tails, blindly optimistic, and the development of the economy is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat!" ……”。

Li Mu saw Yuan Chen and Duan Zetao arguing, secretly happy in his heart, coughed dryly, and continued: "I think Secretary Yuan's words are very reasonable, Shannan City has indeed made great achievements in economic development in the past two years, but there is still a big gap with the economically developed areas, and now we still have to concentrate on the economy, of course, I am not saying that it should not increase investment in education, but it is still necessary to distinguish the relationship between primary and secondary ......."

Yuan Chen saw that Li Mudu stood up to support him, his heart was overjoyed, and he glanced at Duan Zetao demonstratively, Duan Zetao naturally knew what Li Mu'an's heart was, and said with a slight smile: "First of all, I want to state that there is no contradiction between developing the economy and increasing investment in education, according to this budget, the increased investment will be about 230 million, with the current level of financial revenue in Shannan, it can still be afforded, and the development of education can provide more outstanding talents for our economic development, and our economy can achieve sustainable development...... ”。

Li Mu immediately retorted: "Mayor Zetao, that's not the case, if 230 million yuan is invested in economic development, it will play an immediate role, I am not saying that education work is not important, but which work is not important......?

Xiong Tianzhao also echoed: "Yes, a bowl of water is not even, the cadres below will definitely have opinions, just take raising the salary standard of teachers, the salaries of comrades in other units are not high, should we also mention it, we should look at the problem comprehensively, and it will not be good to trigger a chain reaction......

Ruan Jingshan also followed suit: "The problem that Secretary Xiong said is very realistic, let's take the comrades on the public security front as an example, if you don't talk about it day and night, there may be a danger to your life, but the salary standard cannot be raised, and the case-handling funds are also very tight, so it's time to mention it......."

Li Mu interjected: "There are also retired old comrades, old cadres, many treatments have not been implemented, the old cadres office over there to report and want to add a few cars, has not been approved, these old cadres are all for Shannan to make great contributions, can not go to the tea cool, this will be chilling, who is not retired when ......", Li Mu is determined to muddy the water, even if Duan Zetao strongly passed this budget at the Standing Committee, he will become the target of public criticism, and he will end up being a good person.
