Soon after going to work the next day, Zhou Liang, director of the Party and Government Office, arrived at the township mayor's office.

In fact, Zhou Liang came yesterday and specially paid tribute to the township chief in his old age, and said a lot of New Year's greetings. He came here today because he had something to say.

Coming to the desk, Zhou Liang said: "Township Chief, let me report to you that the janitor Lao Liu has resigned." ”

This matter was both expected and somewhat unexpected, Li Xiaohe knew that Lao Liu would have to resign or ask for leave sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so quick and so thorough. He let out an "oh" and said casually, "I resigned, when did it happen?" Didn't you do a good job, how can you say that if you don't do it, you won't do it? ”

"I came here yesterday morning and left, saying that I was a little uncomfortable, and my son picked him up, and he didn't come back until he got off work in the afternoon. Last night, his son called me and said that his father had a bad stomach problem, and he was most afraid of catching a cold, and he couldn't do janitorial work, so he wanted to resign. Worried about disturbing the township chief's rest, I didn't report to you at that time, and I plan to report back to work today. But as soon as I arrived at the unit today, his son sent a resignation report and asked for his father's salary. As he spoke, Zhou Liang took out a folded piece of paper from his clothes pocket, opened it, and handed it over, "Township Chief, look." ”

Taking a piece of paper, Li Xiaohe glanced at the content on it, the content was very simple, it was written in the name of Lao Liu. The main content is a meaning: I am sick and cannot continue to work, and I ask for my resignation.

After reading it, Li Xiaohe returned the paper to Zhou Liang: "Since there is something wrong, then you can't force it." He is a temporary worker, and the procedures are relatively simple, so let's follow the rules. ”

"Okay." Zhou Liang took the resignation slip and said, "Township Chief, Lao Liu is gone, I have to find someone quickly, I asked Lao Shen to keep an eye on him last night." But you can't always deal with it like this, and it will also affect the work in the township, today Lao Shen said that he was very sleepy, so I had to temporarily let him rest for half a day. ”

"Then look for it." After a pause, Li Xiaohe said again, "By the way, you report to the secretary, ask for instructions, and see what the secretary means." There is also the resignation of Lao Liu, which must also be reported to the secretary. ”

Zhou Liang replied "Okay", and then asked: "If the secretary also asks me to find it immediately, should I hurry up and find it?" "Actually, Zhou Liang had already asked Zhao Qiang first, and then came here.

"If the secretary agrees, of course I have to find it." After saying this, Li Xiaohe added, "Lao Zhou, although the janitor is just a temporary worker, he usually doesn't look like a big deal, but in fact, the responsibility is also very heavy, especially at night or when something special happens, you must definitely take responsibility." ”

"Yes, that's what the township chief said." Zhou Liang nodded in agreement.

Li Xiaohe continued: "The gatekeeper is equivalent to the safety inspector of the entire compound, not only to reject bad people and dangers outside the gate, but also to discover the unstable factors in the entire courtyard at any time. A few days ago, someone actually entered the township compound in the middle of the night and stood at my door for half the night, this is a serious dereliction of duty, and I am ready to let you find him. Now that he's resigned, forget it.

In addition, the gatekeepers watch the people who come in and out every day, including leaders and the masses, as well as people in society, and even dangerous elements are not excluded. Therefore, we must be good at discovering abnormal phenomena and report them in a timely manner, but we must make him clear about what to report, and we can't report it or not, but always speculate and even spread rumors based on a little bit of information. Director Zhou, the gatekeeper is under the management of the party and government office, you must take responsibility for supervision, if it happens a few days ago, or there is a phenomenon of random rumors, then I will look for you. ”

Zhou Liang's face was very unnatural, but he also deliberately made a relaxed statement: "Township Chief, in fact, I have always asked for the gatekeeper, but in the specific implementation, some supervision is not in place, resulting in someone entering the government compound at night without permission, and disturbing the township chief." This is because I am not doing my job properly, and I want to apologize to the township chief, and promise that I will strictly manage it in the future, and I should check the post. ”

"Very good, we must be strict with our subordinates and manage them humanely, and we can't be strict when we are not strict, and we are dogmatic when we should be relaxed." Speaking of this, Li Xiaohe said again, "By the way, there is another point that must be paid attention to, we must put an end to the janitor's eating inside and outside, and must not be used by individual people, and must not become a tool for supervising party committees, governments or party and government leaders." Once such a thing happens, it must be severely punished, and the responsibility must be investigated at all levels. The leader is not a fool either, and he is not so easy to fool. ”

Hearing the township chief's words, Zhou Liang couldn't pretend to be relaxed anymore, he realized that the other party was beating, so he tried his best to be sincere: "Township chief, I must be careful and careful, I must be strict with the gatekeepers, strict management, strict rewards and punishments, and never let there be loopholes that should not be there." ”

"Okay, then you can go." Li Xiaohe waved his hand.

"Okay." After answering, Zhou Liang quickly turned around and walked towards the door.

"Director Zhou, wait." Li Xiaohe suddenly spoke again.

Zhou Liang turned around and asked, "Township Chief, is there anything else?" ”

"Director Zhou, are you uncomfortable, why is your back so wet*, and it's not hot in the house?" Li Xiaohe's tone was very concerned, "You won't be sick, right?" ”

The muscles on his face jumped, and Zhou Liang said, "Thank you, Township Chief." I should be fine, I must have answered the phone last night and didn't have a good rest, and I didn't have time to eat breakfast today, so it's a little empty. I just had a physical examination a few years ago, and all the physical indicators are normal. ”

"That's good, let's go back quickly, or rest for a while. You are the chief steward of the party committee and the government, and the secretary and I are all pointing at you. Li Xiaohe's words were both concerned and full of intimacy, "If you are still uncomfortable, you can check it again and watch it again, but you can't be careless." ”

Zhou Liang hurriedly said: "Thank you for the township chief's concern and love, I will strictly implement your instructions, never out of shape, never ......"

Li Xiaohe interrupted the other party: "Don't say it, go back quickly, you see that there are more and more sweats." ”

"Ah, okay." In response, Zhou Liang walked out of the house. Then he quickly wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh.

At this time, Li Xiaohe in the room smiled, but the smile was more sarcastic and cold. He wants to warn some people not to make a decision about the janitor, otherwise don't blame me for turning his face. Although there are other people who instructed Xin Shumei to be put in, using Lao Liu to spy on himself is definitely not unrelated to some people.

……

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, I was thinking about something related to the plan when there was a knock on the door. After saying "come in", Li Xiaohe looked in the direction of the door.

The door opened, and He Chunsheng and Qiao Manchu walked into the house one after another.

"The two directors are here, please be seated. Greetings to the two of you in your old age. Saying that, Li Xiaohe also arched his hand with concern.

"Township Chief, are you still greeting us for the New Year? We want to express our 'hearts' to you, but you don't accept it, how can there be such a reason? Qiao Manchu's face was full of embarrassment.

Li Xiaohe smiled: "It's not contradictory, these are two different things." Can I help you? ”

Sitting on the sofa, He Chunsheng spoke: "Township Chief, you have to hurry up on the affairs of Yishan Company." Before the Chinese New Year, some villagers came to me, and more people were looking for me in the past few days, saying that they wanted to petition the county and ask the county leaders to settle their money. Xiangyang Village is the same, not only looking for Lao Qiao, but also looking for his wife Zhu Xiaohua, which made Lao Qiao anxious. ”

Li Xiaohe said: "I told the villagers at that time, and they also recognized that it was possible to find the person in charge of Yishan Company and catch Ma Yishan. Now that He Erlai has been arrested, and there is also news of Ma Yishan, it is getting closer and closer to solving the case. If they go to the county at this time, they can't solve the problem, it won't help, and it may make things more complicated. ”

"I told them that the county would not pay this money, it would only cause trouble to the township and make it difficult for the township chief. But they said that they knew that the township chief was kind, and they also knew that the township chief was really embarrassed, so they didn't look for the township, but went directly to the county government. Speaking of this, Qiao Manchu sighed, "Hey, even if you find the county, the county will have to let the township deal with it, or make trouble for the township chief." ”

"Then now the villagers are there, didn't they go to the county?" Li Xiaohe asked hurriedly.

Qiao Manchu replied: "I haven't gone yet." They wanted to go, but I told them that the county hadn't really gone to work yet, and even if they went, they wouldn't be able to see the county leaders. They just did it, saying that after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, they would go to the county immediately, and no one would say that it was easy to do it. ”

He Chunshan continued: "It's no wonder, it's been more than half a year now, I can't get a penny, Ma Yishan has also disappeared, and people have no bottom in their hearts." If Ma Yishan is caught, or if a family is given some money, people will definitely be able to slow down a little longer. ”

"It's good if you don't go, if you do, it's just going to add to the chaos. You two are like this, continue to stop the villagers, don't let them go to the county, I'll think of a way. Speaking of this, Li Xiaohe suddenly asked again, "When did the villagers start looking for you this time?" ”

"Twenty-one...... Two. He Chunshan gave the answer, "Yes, the day after the 22nd, it is the second day after the National People's Congress." ”

Li Xiaohe nodded slowly: "I know, you two go back first, just do what you just said." ”

"Okay, the village chief can hurry. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it is estimated that the eighteenth or ninth people will definitely go to the county, and it will really be impossible to stop it by then. Qiao Manchu was worried. He Chunshan, who looked sad, walked out of the house.

Only Li Xiaohe was left in the office, and his expression became solemn.

Judging from the statements of Qiao and He just now, the villagers are going to the county to petition this time, which must be related to the fact that they received seven negative votes at the National People's Congress, and it is also related to the gambling crackdown, and may also be affected by that rumor. Some of the prestige that he had built up with great difficulty was wiped out by these bad things. If this continues, how can we promote the "plan"? If Qiao Cheng uses the villagers to petition to rectify himself, I am afraid that his position will not be guaranteed.

What to do? What to do? After thinking about it for a while, Li Xiaohe picked up his mobile phone and dialed a call. As soon as the phone rang, he said directly: "Lao Xu, let's go and watch it again." ”
