The meeting dispersed, and only Liu Dake, Liang Haixing and the team members of the Mashan Bureau were left in the spacious conference room. Liu Dake did not rush to study the next step, but reported the situation of the meeting just held to Huang Zhenggang by telephone. After listening to the report, Huang Zhenggang did not express any opinion on the convening of the meeting, but said on the phone: "According to the current situation, Mashan is the most seriously affected, and the Mashan Bureau can apply for a part of the special fund for disaster relief for Mashan in the name of the bureau. ”

When Liu Dake heard that Huang Zhenggang was going to allocate special disaster relief funds for Mashan, he was extremely happy, and said, "Boss, how much money do we apply?" ”

"Apply for a special fund for disaster relief at the first level, right? Of course, you must be realistic. Huang Zhenggang said without thinking.

"At least 10 million special funds for first-level disaster relief?" Liu Dake was even more happy when he heard it, and said in his heart. Before Liu Dake could reply, Huang Zhenggang said again: "Considering that the current disaster relief situation is still unclear, the special fund application of the Mashan Bureau can be slightly higher, leaving some room for the province's approval." ”

"Good, good, great. I'll arrange it. I will keep you informed of the progress of the flood relief efforts in Mashan. Liu Dake was very excited.

After Liu Dake finished reporting to Huang Zhenggang, he immediately organized the team of the Mashan Bureau to study the specific anti-disaster measures in the next step. When the members of the Mashan Bureau heard that the provincial department would allocate special disaster relief funds for Mashan City, they were very happy, and Liu Dake was even more excited, saying: "This is a big deal, and after hearing this, the Municipal Party Committee will definitely be very happy, and the status of the Mashan Bureau in Mashan City will be further improved." "In the end, the meeting decided that the Mashan Bureau should quickly learn about the losses caused by the flood from the relevant departments in the city, and apply for 15 million disaster relief funds from the provincial department tonight; Lu Yutai accompanied Liu Dake to Qianshan to assist the Municipal Party Committee in fighting the disaster; Liang Haixing and Ma Shan formed a report on the relevant activities this evening and submitted it to the provincial department.

After the deployment, Liu Dake seems to have completed a major mission, especially Huang Zhenggang's decision on the phone to allocate tens of millions of special disaster relief funds to Mashan, which can be said to be a great gift to Mashan. And this gift is applied to the hall by writing a report by himself, and this credit will eventually be recorded on his head. Thinking that he was about to meet Zhou Siguo, at the critical moment of disaster fighting, Zhou Siguo would definitely be very happy to give such a heavy gift. Thinking of this, Liu Dake's heart was very beautiful and his spirit was uplifted, so he said to Hou Jinsheng, who was sitting in the back row: "This is not far from the place where Secretary Zhou commanded the disaster fight, right?" ”

Hou Jinsheng looked out of the car window and said, "It's not far, it's coming soon." ”

Liu Dake looked out of the car window, and with the help of lightning, he could see out the window clearly, it seemed that the rain was indeed very heavy, and the fields on both sides of the road were already dazed, like a big flat mirror. Liu Dake's mood couldn't help but become heavy, and said, "Old Lu, ......." ”

Liu Da could see that Lu Yutai did not respond, and when he looked back, Lu Yutai, who was sitting in the back row, was dozing off. Seeing this, Hou Jinsheng, who was sitting beside him, hurriedly pushed Lu Yutai gently. Liu Dake just wanted to say something more, when Lu Yutai's voice came: "Hmm." Liu Dake seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Lu Yutai's performance, but in front of his subordinates, it was not easy to get angry, so he said: "In the past two days, you have been in good spirits, fighting for breath at critical moments, and timely reflecting the disaster resistance situation of the bureau to the provincial department and the city, so that the superiors can understand and grasp the progress of our work." ”

"Hmm." Lu Yutai nodded in agreement.

Liu Dake seemed to be uneasy about Lu Yutai, and instructed Hou Jinsheng: "Xiaohou, you, the director of the office, must be implemented concretely." ”

Facing Lu Yutai, who was sitting beside him, Hou Jinsheng didn't know how to answer, so he said casually: "Hmm." ”

The off-road vehicle carrying Liu Dake, Lu Yutai, Liang Haixing, and Hou Jinsheng quickly came to the Qianshan County Disaster Relief Headquarters in the vast rainy night, but to Liu Dake's surprise, Zhou Siguo was not at the Qianshan County Flood Control Headquarters, but inspected the disaster at the Qianma River embankment.

Hou Jinsheng is very familiar with Zhou Siguo's location, which is the place where Zhou Siguo investigated the petition incident some time ago. After listening to Hou Jinsheng's introduction, Liu Dake seemed to be a little hesitant and said, "Can the car pass?" ”

Hou Jinsheng said: "There is still some way to go. Hou Jinsheng looked at Liu Dake and said. Liu Dake hesitated for a moment and said, "Is there a raincoat or umbrella in the car?" ”

Hou Jinsheng immediately understood Liu Dake's intentions and said, "I was in too much of a hurry when I came, and I forgot to prepare." Then he said, "I can borrow it." ”

Liu Dake nodded and said, "Okay, borrow two raincoats immediately, let's go see Secretary Zhou and see if Secretary Zhou has any new instructions." ”

It was not smooth for Hou Jinsheng to borrow a raincoat, and it was not until the sign of Deputy Mayor Liu Dake was shown that the headquarters reluctantly lent him four raincoats.

When Liu Dake rushed to the front line of the disaster, Zhou Siguo was standing in the rain to listen to the briefing and inspect the disaster. With the light of the flashlight, the Qianma River flowed slowly, like a sleepy insect, listless. To the right of the Qianma River is a vast swamp. If a large raindrop hits your face from time to time, it hurts. Not far from the embankment, armed police and local villagers are constantly carrying sandbags to strengthen the embankment.

Looking at the disaster situation in front of him, the leader of Qianshan County introduced to Zhou Siguo: "Now the river is basically a flash flood, and the water level in the river has exceeded the farmland on both sides. ”

Zhou Siguo glanced at the flooded farmland on the right and said, "In other words, the Qianma River has lost its basic drainage function, and the farmland on both sides and the villages can only be absorbed by themselves underground. In addition, if the river embankment bursts, then the farmland and villages on both sides of the river will suffer even more flooding? ”

As soon as Zhou Siguo's voice fell, the leader of Qianshan County added: "Yes. If there is a gap in the levee, the entire river will be flooded, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

At this time, I don't know who said it, the whole front mountain trend is high in the south and low in the north, high in the east and low in the west, especially in the west, as a mining area, the subsidence has been serious in recent years, and the terrain is lower, so a gap can be blown up on the east bank of the river to discharge the flood. Prevent flooding into the mine area once the levee bursts. When the leaders of Qianshan County heard this, they hurriedly said: "The main purpose of building the Qianma River at that time was to transport mountain floods. The Qianma River is bounded by the Liangzhuang Coal Mine, with the grain area on the left and the mining area on the right, and if the flood water is discharged to the grain area, the loss will be greater. ”

Listening to the introduction of the leaders of Qianshan County, Zhou Siguo turned on a strong flashlight and kept looking around.

At this time, some people in the crowd were suggesting to Zhou Siguo that the western part was a mining area, and the underground itself was relatively loose, so that the flood water could be discharged to the mining area for natural absorption. Some people think this is a good suggestion. Zhou Siguo did not express his position, but said to the secretary beside him: "You hurry up and get in touch with Mr. Wang in the province to see if this plan is feasible and listen to the opinions of experts." ”

The people who followed Zhou Siguo to inspect the disaster no longer said anything, waiting for Mr. Wang's advice.

Liu Da could see that Zhou Siguo was a little free, so he stepped forward and said softly: "Secretary Zhou is good." ”

Hearing Liu Dake's voice, Zhou Siguo looked back, and saw that Liu Dake and others had come to the disaster relief site at some point, so he was a little surprised and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Liu Dake made a brief report to Zhou Siguo on the mobilization and deployment of the anti-disaster work in response to the call of the provincial department and the municipal party committee, as well as the next work measures. Zhou Siguo kept nodding.

Liu Siguo also reported to Zhou Siguo that he brought a big gift from the provincial department. Zhou Siguo was puzzled, so he asked what kind of ceremony? Liu Dake reported to Zhou Siguo on the matter of applying for special disaster relief funds for Mashan from the provincial department. Liu Dake thought that Zhou Siguo would definitely be very happy after hearing this, and praised himself. However, unexpectedly, Zhou Siguo didn't react at all after hearing this, and nodded lightly. Liu Dake was a little puzzled, and thought: Is the city not needed this part of the money at all, or does Secretary Zhou feel that the money is too little?

Zhou Siguo glanced at Liu Dake, and in the night, he naturally couldn't see Liu Dake's face clearly. Similarly, Liu Dake couldn't see Zhou Siguo's face clearly, let alone Zhou Siguo's thoughts. After a while, Zhou Siguo said indifferently: "I just received a call from your Director Huang. By the way, I also informed Director Huang about sending you to the province tomorrow to fight for the project, and Director Huang promised that he would also find the relevant departments to help mediate ....... ”

Hearing Zhou Siguo's words, it was like a thunderclap that exploded in Liu Dake's heart. Reporting to Zhou Siguo in the rain late at night, Liu Dake wanted to show himself in front of Zhou Siguo, but he categorically did not expect that Huang Zhenggang had already informed Zhou Siguo of the relevant situation. Liu Dake's heart was full of infinite emotion, and he sighed in his heart: Leadership is leadership, political acumen, and careful consideration of things, much better than himself. What made Liu Dake even more uneasy was that Zhou Siguo even informed Huang Zhenggang about sending himself to the province to fight for the project tomorrow, and Zhou Siguo thought about it too comprehensively this time. On the other hand, it also made Liu Dake's heart feel an inexplicable melancholy and coldness: in Zhou Siguo's eyes, no matter how hard he tried, he was still a deputy position, and he was still the deputy director sent by the provincial department. What made Liu Dake even more disturbing was that when he heard that Huang Zhenggang had helped win the support of the province and allocated special disaster relief funds for Mashan, he was so happy that he forgot to report to Zhou Siguo immediately. At that time, Huang Zhenggang would not necessarily report to Zhou Siguo, and once Zhou Siguo learned this information, his performance would definitely be very different from now. However, to Liu Da's surprise, Huang Zhenggang had already informed Zhou Siguo before him.

Another consideration for Liu Dake's meeting with Zhou Siguo was that he was worried that Mashan would be so badly affected that he would not be able to go to the province tomorrow. I would like to specifically ask Zhou Siguo, and after receiving a clear reply from Zhou Siguo, I will officially report to Huang Zhenggang. After all, if you don't report to Huang Zhenggang in the province, once Huang Zhenggang knows, it will cause Huang Zhenggang's misunderstanding, and there is no need to hide this matter from Huang Zhenggang. As a result, Zhou Siguo had informed Huang Zhenggang of the relevant situation, which made him fall into a passive and embarrassing situation again.
