Chapter 42: Criminals
The matter of smelting iron ore Lin Yue was relieved to hand over to Zhao Minghui to deal with, and he was now busy setting up all kinds of grassroots officials in Yuancheng.
After the Yuancheng Conference in the past few days has completely established the political system, many managers in Yuancheng have to be transferred. And in the short term, it is necessary to examine them, remove some unsuitable ones, and appoint some active personnel.
The management method in Yuandong is still relatively simple, that is, a district government is set up, each district government council has a district head, two deputy district heads, and more than a dozen personnel are in charge of the work of various departments, and these personnel are directly appointed by the city lord Lin Yue. In addition, there are nearly 100 staff members of the District Council, all of whom are appointed by the District Governor or the Heads of Departments.
An area of nearly 10,000 people is managed by a district government council of nearly 100 people, and it is very likely that there are management blind spots. Although Lin Yue held the supreme power in Yuancheng, it was impossible for him to control everyone in the entire Yuancheng, and if some administrators made some small moves, Lin Yue might not be able to find out. Therefore, Lin Yue must review all administrators as clearly as possible to avoid more trouble in the future.
In addition to managers, district representatives must also be screened. Although the more than 50 district deputies in the entire Yuancheng basically have management positions at all levels, the position of district representative alone has no substantive management power.
But the invisible power of the district representatives is very large.
First of all, the district representative has the right to nominate managers, which has a great impact on Lin Yue's appointment and dismissal of managers. If some district representatives deliberately nominate a certain person to Lin Yue, and Lin Yue agrees to the appointment without a clear understanding, it is equivalent to indirectly handing over the appointment and dismissal power to the district representatives.
Secondly, the district representatives are important discussants of the establishment of the Yuancheng policy, and as long as they can persuade Lin Yue, they can be regarded as indirectly having the power to formulate the policy.
The last point is that the appointment of district representatives does not contradict other positions, such as Yang Qing, Zhao Minghui and others are both district heads and district representatives.
Taken together, these three points are enough to see how powerful the district representatives are. However, no matter how great the power of the district representative is, it also depends on Lin Yue to be able to exert it, and if Lin Yue does not agree, all the ideas of the district representative will be completely useless.
Therefore, Lin Yue will attach great importance to the candidates for district representatives, most of the district representatives elected before value their right to speak in the crowd, and now that the order of Yuancheng has been established, those who have a larger right to speak have become less suitable for serving as district representatives, and now Lin Yue will pay more attention to the ability of the candidates for district representatives.
So Lin Yue issued an order, saying that the candidates for district representatives will be reappointed on the 60th day of the new calendar, which means that the current district representatives will be all recalled on the 60th day of the new calendar, and the personnel arrangements will be re-conducted, of course, the dismissed district representatives can still run for election. said that it was a campaign, but in fact, the real appointment and dismissal still depended on Lin Yue. It's just that Lin Yue will conduct a voting survey.
After the voting investigation is arranged, the district government committees of each district will be busy, and what Lin Yue has to do is to supervise, and he will supervise it unconsciously.
All the managers who were dealing with this matter knew that the city lord could jump out and catch him at any time, so no one dared to make a small move or slack off, and they all dealt with this matter wholeheartedly and desperately.
On the 44th day of the new calendar, when Lin Yue was busy supervising, a major incident occurred in the Baihu District of Yuancheng, an attempted rape incident.
Lin Yue was shocked when he heard the news, and immediately led people to quickly rush to the White Tiger District, and before he entered the wall, Lin Yue heard all kinds of noises coming from inside. Immediately quickened his pace into the wall, and then saw the crowd of people on the inner and outer floors forming a large circle and scolding, and some people even picked up their shoes and threw them inside.
"Pervert, you stinky shameless!"
"Your father and mother raised you so much in vain, and they actually drove out such a hurtful thing!"
"Rapist, get out of Metaverse!"
"No, he should be taken to the pig pen!"
"Hang him! Hang him! Hang him! ”
“......”
All kinds of scolding came into Lin Yue's ears, realizing that the situation had become very serious, and Lin Yue had to deal with it immediately.
"Calm down!" Lin Yue's shout was not very loud in the noisy crowd, but most of the people next to him heard it, and when they saw that it was Lin Yue talking, someone immediately exclaimed: "City Lord! ”
While talking, they made way for Lin Yue. After the others heard the words of the city lord, they all immediately quieted down and looked at Lin Yue's side.
Lin Yue's majesty immediately made the entire encirclement make a way, and after Lin Yue passed through the crowd, he found that there was a golden-haired boy lying in the middle of the crowd, his body was bruised and purple by various stones, and some of the wounds were still bleeding. The golden-haired boy curled up on the ground, moaning in pain. Around him were soldiers maintaining order, a platoon of more than twenty men, who stood up to the angry crowd to keep them from messing around.
"City Lord!" When the soldier platoon commander saw Lin Yue, he immediately walked over and saluted Lin Yue.
Lin Yue waved his hand and said, "What's the matter?" ”
The soldier platoon commander glanced at the golden-haired boy before he said to Lin Yue: "This kid tried to rape a girl in a hidden bush outside the White Tiger District, and was found by a passerby. ”
Hearing what the soldier platoon commander said, Lin Yue fully understood. He also glanced at the golden retriever boy and did not speak.
"City Lord, I know this guy!" An uncle in the crowd took a step forward, pointed to the golden-haired boy and said to Lin Yue: "This kid was a gangster in L Street of N City when he was on Earth, it is said that he is a member of the Wild Wolf Gang, and he usually plays tricks in the street, and always collects protection money from us hawkers, and my vegetable stall was knocked over by him once." ”
Lin Yue frowned when he heard this, and nodded to show that he understood.
"City Lord, you have to be the master of Ying'er!" Another voice sounded in the crowd, Lin Yue turned his head to look, only to see a woman with a good face crying loudly and said: "This bastard has been going to do black things to my niece more than once, he tried to do something wrong when we first came to Yuanshan a few days ago, and he didn't dare to mess around when there were many people, and now my niece is going out alone, he wants to do it, fortunately, someone passed by and found it, otherwise...... Otherwise......" Before she could finish speaking, the woman choked up and couldn't speak.
"This kind of dog thing should be cut with a thousand cuts!" The crowd was noisy again, and all kinds of scolding from the golden retriever boy came and went.
"That's it!" Lin Yue shouted loudly to silence everyone, and said, "This person will definitely be punished for committing this serious crime, but you can't let it be dealt with privately." Now take him to the District Council for interrogation, and the Council will give you an explanation!" ”
Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and then someone said: "City Lord, you must not let this guy go, this kind of person should be chopped up and fed to the dog!" ”
Lin Yue glanced at that and said, "I will give you a satisfactory explanation." Get him out of here! The last sentence was addressed to the platoon commander of the soldier.
Lin Yue came forward, of course the crowd did not dare to stop him, the soldiers immediately set up the golden retriever boy and took him away, Lin Yue followed behind the soldiers, and some of those crowds dispersed, and some followed to the district government.
Lin Yue was pondering as he walked. In fact, this kind of thing was expected by Lin Yue, after all, now that the laws of the earth have expired, and the living environment is so bad, the dark side of human nature will be constantly magnified. In the face of famine, people killed people for food, which was a dark side; Now that the food problem is gradually easing, some people who are not strong enough will can't help but vent their desires, which is also a dark side.
The golden retriever boy himself should lack discipline, and he is in adolescence and has too much yang energy, so he will try to rape a lonely girl. Maybe he thought in his heart that the order here in Yuancheng was still chaotic, no one could control him, as long as he did things secretly, there was no danger.
Thinking about Lin Yue, a sneer rose at the corner of his mouth, and he muttered: "The law of Yuancheng has just been established, and it has not yet been understood by the people, now I will use you to make an example of you!" ”
The interrogation process of the golden retriever boy must be followed, and after adding the testimony of the passerby who discovered his behavior, the golden retriever boy's guilt is ironclad.
"Escort him to the White Tiger District Square!" After the charges were fully established, Lin Yue asked the soldiers to escort the golden-haired boy to the square of Baihu District, and asked people to notify the people in Baihu District. "I'm going to execute this guy myself!"
When he heard that the golden retriever boy was escorted to the square of the White Tiger District for execution, the people in the entire White Tiger District immediately became interested and flocked to the square one after another.
It is said that it is a square, but in fact it is a bulldozed open space, and Lin Yue sent a company of troops to surround the square to prevent the masses from rioting. Of the more than 8,000 people in the entire White Tiger District, nearly 5,000 people gathered around the periphery of the square to watch.
In the middle of the square, the golden-haired boy was tied up into a dumpling and knelt on the ground, his whole head hanging down between his chest, and he no longer had the slightest idea of wanting to live.
"Everyone!" Lin Yue stood next to the golden retriever boy and said loudly in front of the crowd: "Lin Yonglong (golden retriever boy) tried to rape the girl in an attempt, and after being confirmed by the trial and investigation of the Ministry of Justice of the District Political Yuan, the evidence is conclusive and the crime is convicted. It is now decided to sentence Lin Yonglong to death! ”
For a while, the crowd outside the square cheered.
