Fourth, difficult questions

Li Minqiang stood in the courtyard and looked at the stars in the sky before going out, and the street lights on the street were also on. He turned from the street into a north-south alley, and at the south end of the alley was Xiao Yulin's home.

"Is Brother Yulin here?" Li Minqiang asked as soon as he walked into the courtyard.

Xiao Yulin, who was having dinner, put down the dishes and chopsticks and greeted him from the house: "Minqiang, come into the house." ”

Xiao Yulin welcomed Li Minqiang into the room and sat down.

"Why are you eating alone, sister-in-law?"

"She's taking the baby back to her parents' house." Xiao Yulin said with a smile.

Li Minqiang, who was sitting next to him, said: "After returning from the army, I always want to come to your house to sit, but things are always one after another, you won't have an opinion, right?" ”

"Look at what you said, who doesn't know who is still talking about this." He made a cup of tea and handed it to Minqiang and said with a smile, "I don't smoke or drink, so I have to invite you to a cup of tea." ”

"When guests come to tea as wine, the water is sweet and good. Besides, I'm also a half-pulled cigarette, whether I smoke it or not, you can be polite. Let's eat, it's cold. Li Minqiang looked at the clean and neat furnishings in the house and said, "It seems that you have a good life!" ”

Xiao Yulin ate and said, "What's good, it's just that the house is cleaned up." ”

Xiao Yulin is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today, and he has a pair of clever eyes under his two curved eyebrows, and he knows that he is a capable person at a glance. Under Peugeot's nose, there is a large mouth with two thick lips. It is often said that people with thick lips have clumsy tongues. But he was a very talkative person.

Xiao Yulin finished eating, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and sat down, and said, "Hey, Minqiang, if you don't come, I will look for you, I really want to sit down with you and have a good chat." Now that you have become secretary, this is both my hope and the hope of the whole village, and I am sure that you will not disappoint everyone. ”

"Disappointed or not, let's see the efforts in the future, but I can't do without you as a good helper!"

"I can only beat the side drum, the main thing is up to you, you are the head of a village."

Li Minqiang smiled and said: "A good man still needs three helpers, let alone me." ”

Xiao Yulin said: "Let's not talk about the east and west, since you are here, let's have a good chat." ”

"Well, let's talk."

"Then I'll get straight to the point, I hope you can change the face of our village as secretary, but I also know that this is not an easy task, and there will be many problems."

Li Minqiang said: "Don't be afraid of difficult problems, as long as you want to do something, no matter how big the difficulties are, you have to overcome them." I believe that as long as everyone is united and twisted together, there is no problem that cannot be solved. ”

Xiao Yulin said happily: "I appreciate your tenacity. ”

"Don't praise me. I just came back and don't know much about the situation in the village, can you tell me what problems our village needs to solve? ”

Xiao Yulin pondered for a while and said: "If you want to talk about difficult problems, as far as the current situation is concerned, the people in the village are most concerned about the problem of poverty alleviation in our village, the most worried is the problem of fruit sales, the most dissatisfied is the problem that cadres cannot do practical things for the masses, the most unaccustomed is the problem of unhealthy practices such as eating and drinking with public funds of cadres, and the biggest opinion is the problem of contracting and replacing electricians in the FRP factory. ”

Li Minqiang pondered and said: "I think the poverty alleviation and fruit sales in the village are a big problem, we have to hold a meeting to study them, and it will take a process to solve them. Whether cadres can do practical things for the masses is a question of the responsibility of cadres. Isn't it just doing practical things for them? Serving the people is the purpose of our party, which can never change; From today onwards, we must resolutely stop the consumption and drinking of public funds by cadres. As the saying goes, six-inch chopsticks can hook the soul, and the wine cup is not deep to drown people. Whether it is a village cadre or a leader from a superior, it is treated equally, because this kind of behavior directly affects the image of cadres; You said that the contracting and dismissal of electricians in FRP factories have the greatest opinions, what is going on? ”

"Then I'll tell you about it."

So Xiao Yulin introduced what happened:

In order to develop the rural economy, the town government called on the village to run an enterprise, and our village also set up a glass fiber reinforced plastic factory, mainly to produce various ventilation pipes, when it was just done, there was no experience, and it was not good to catch up with the construction market, and it was difficult to sell, but a year to remove various costs and expenses also earned 50,000 or 60,000 yuan, which solved the daily expenses of the village. Later, the real estate market began to be active, and the sales of FRP products had a good momentum. At this time, Mu Qinglin held a meeting of the branch committee and proposed that the FRP factory should implement individual contracting.

Mu Qinglin said at the meeting: "In order to implement the call of the higher authorities to restructure, our FRP factory must also be restructured, from collective management to individual contracting. ”

Dong Datian said: "I believe that the FRP factory was invested and built by the village, and it is a collective property that cannot be contracted to individuals. ”

Mu Qinglin said vigorously: "Restructuring is a requirement of the superiors, and we can't stand up to it!" I don't have the guts. Restructuring and contracting are the trend of the times. Daejeon, you are the leader, and it is not okay if you can't keep up with the situation! ”

Dong Datian glared and wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and didn't say anything, just sighed.

Xiao Yulin said: "It's right to act according to the instructions of the superiors, but we haven't seen the regulations issued by the superiors that the village-run factories should also be restructured!" ”

Mu Qinglin was impatient and said, "How can the superiors stipulate it so specifically!" Our Shagang Village is a small village that can't be found on the map of our province, let alone a small FRP factory, how can the superior issue a document to specifically stipulate? It is necessary to understand the general spirit. ”

Li Jianxin asked: "According to what you mean, the factory must become a personal one?" ”

Mu Qinglin said unhappily: "You can't say that, the contractor has to pay the village contract fee. ”

Wang Wensi asked: "How much does the contract fee pay?" ”

Mu Qinglin took a puff of cigarette and said: "Our factory has been in operation for more than two years, and you also know that the annual income after removing costs is about 50,000 yuan, and the income of the village we contract to individuals cannot be reduced." ”

Dong Datian said: "So the annual contract fee is 50,000 or 60,000? ”

"Who's going to do it?" Xiao Yulin asked.

Dong Datian said: "Hmph! Fifty or sixty thousand, this number is willing to be contracted by anyone. ”

Wang Wensi said: "Daejeon is right, even I want to contract. ”

Xiao Yulin said: "If you have to contract, you will implement competitive bidding, and whoever gives the highest contract fee will contract to whomever you want." ”

Li Jianxin also said: "I agree with Yulin's opinion, bid!" Now that the real estate industry is developing so fast, the contract fee cannot be only 50,000 or 60,000 yuan. The branch sets a bottom bid, and whoever gives the highest contracting fee will let whoever contract, which will definitely be higher than 50,000 or 60,000 yuan. ”

Mu Qinglin clapped the board and said: "It's decided, 50,000 yuan as the bottom of the bid, and the bidding will be implemented." Daejeon, tomorrow you will announce the announcement on the radio to see who is willing to bid. ”

On the second day after the meeting, Mu Qingsen found accountant Li Jianming: "Jianming, I'll pay the contract fee for the FRP factory." ”

Li Jianming was stunned: "Have you contracted the factory?" ”

"Hmm. It's 50,000 yuan, you can take it."

After Li Jianming finished collecting the money, as soon as he left the door of the village committee, he ran into Xiao Yulin, who was about to work in the field, and asked: "Yulin, is the factory in our village contracted to Qingsen?" ”

"No wow."

"He said that he contracted the factory, and he just handed me a contract fee of 50,000 yuan."

"Really?"

"Yes! You didn't do your research? ”

Xiao Yu didn't go to the woods, and he didn't go home, so he came to Mu Qinglin's house with a shovel.

Mu Qinglin was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette, Xiao Yulin put the shovel into the yard, and when he entered the house, he asked, "Uncle Lin, isn't it a fixed factory bidding contract?" How to ......"

Mu Qinglin pointed to the sofa and said, "You sit down." ”

After Xiao Yulin sat down, Mu Qinglin said unhurriedly: "After I came back, I pondered for a while, if the efficiency of the factory is not good, and others contract, I am worried that the contract fee will not be recovered, and he will not pay us what to do." ”

"Uncle Qingsen. I don't think that's appropriate, it's against the decision of the meeting! Besides, the contractor is Uncle Qingsen again, and I am worried that the masses will have opinions. ”

Mu Qinglin said impatiently: "If you have any opinions, you have to explain well, and let Qingsen contract because he has been in charge of this factory and is familiar with the business, so it is more reassuring for him to contract." You have to be a little flexible in what you do, and what is beneficial to the village is what to do, starting from the actual situation. The matter is settled, no more talk. ”

When Xiao Yulin saw Mu Qinglin say this, he felt that the raw rice had been made into cooked rice, and it was useless to say anything more. But I always feel very uncomfortable, which is detrimental to the collective. He didn't give up and went to Dong Datian again.

"Uncle Tian, the factory doesn't invite bids to directly let Qingsen contract, this is not suitable!"

Dong Datian glared at him and said, "He is the secretary's brother, tell me to be a fart!" Damn, it's cheap and their family is stained! Xiao Yulin looked for Wang Wensi, but Wang Wensi hummed and didn't say anything. As a result, Mu Qingsen contracted the factory for only 50,000 yuan a year.

Xiao Yulin introduced this and said: "But he contracted, and he only paid the contract fee for one year and never paid it again." ”

Li Minqiang said: "No wonder the villagers have opinions. ”

"Because his brother is a secretary, even if he has an opinion, he is embarrassed to mention it or dare not mention it in person, so he can only discuss it behind his back."

Li Minqiang sighed and said: "Cadres should not only consider their own small circle, but should also think of the interests of the broad masses. Why don't the crowd choose you! ”

Xiao Yulin said: "Some people reported that it was the factory contracted by Mu Qinglin and Mu Qingsen, because they saw that his brothers often settled together. Although the factory invested and built in the village has become their family, every time a buyer comes to the factory, his brothers eat and drink with him in the restaurant in the town, and Mu Qinglin also gives it to the accountant Jianming for reimbursement after signing a lot of food and drink expenses and gifts. ”

Li Minqiang said angrily: "This is harming the public and private interests. ”

"What's the deal with the electrician?"

Xiao Yulin said: "Wang Jian reported this matter to me. I only know some general information, you can ask Wang Jian for details. ”

As soon as I said this, Wang Jian came.

"Minqiang is here?"

Xiao Yulin said happily: "I really said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and you came just about to talk about your business." ”

Wang Jian was stunned: "What's the matter?" ”

Li Minqiang said: "You are an old electrician for many years, why don't you do it?" ”

Wang Jian was thirty-six years old, thin and tall, with a melon seed face, and a polite appearance, he sighed and said, "Cough, why do you mention it when it's all in the past?" ”

Xiao Yulin said: "Minqiang is very concerned about this matter and wants to hear from you. What's up? Don't you dare to say? ”

"What would you not dare. But what's the use? ”

Li Minqiang said: "The villagers have some opinions on the use of electricity, and they want to find out what the reason is. ”

Wang Jian hurriedly said: "I have an opinion on electricity, this has nothing to do with me, I don't care about this matter for a long time." ”

Li Minqiang said: "Before I became a soldier, you were an electrician in the village, why didn't you do it?" ”

Wang Jian looked aggrieved and said: "It's not that I don't do it, it's someone else...... Yulin knows about this, just ask him. ”

Xiao Yulin smiled and said, "I don't know as much as you know!" Just talk to Minqiang. ”

Wang Jian sat on the table and pondered for a while, and said angrily: "When I was working as an electrician, there were several families who did not pay electricity bills all year round, and some households did not pay evenly. ”

"How often are electricity bills paid?" Li Minqiang asked.

"A quarter."

"Do you have a record of the charges?"

"Yes. Each charge is registered and signed by the person who paid the electricity bill. ”

"Who are the families you're talking about?"

"It's mainly Wang Xueyong's family, and there are ......"

Wang Jian didn't say any more, Xiao Yulin said: "You can say who else, don't have any worries." ”

Li Minqiang said: "We will keep the situation you say confidential. ”

Wang Jian said in a low voice: "There are also the old secretary Mu Qinglin's family and the deputy secretary Wang Wensi's family. Later, Wang Wenzhi's family, Li Minghao's family, and Mu Cunli's family heard that the village cadres did not pay the electricity bill, and the three of them also did not pay. ”

Li Minqiang asked: "Why is your electrician inappropriate?" ”

When asked about this, Wang Jian was a little excited, stood up from the table and said: "Wang Wensi's family and Wang Xueyong's family, not only do they not pay the electricity bill for electricity at home, but they also don't pay for the electricity used to water the ground. These electricity bills are recorded in the village's public electricity bills, but the village has no money, and it does not pay to the town's electricity management office, so there are often power outages. ”

Li Minqiang asked: "What is the reason for not paying the electricity bill?" ”

Wang Jian said: "I went to their house to collect the electricity bill. Wang Xueyong tilted his head and said, 'You are really salty and don't worry about eating radish!' Pay more and pay less, pay or not, don't care! 'I scolded and scolded that I didn't pay it, and said that I couldn't do things with a white head. I'm afraid that the electricity management office will collect the electricity bill. But I didn't dare to ask for it from the official's family, which made me in a dilemma. Later, I went to Wang Wensi's house to look at the meter, and the meter did not go out of words at all, and I looked closely because his family had changed the circuit ...... privately."

Hearing this, Li Minqiang said angrily: "This is a violation!" ”

"Yes! I said you were wrong to do so. Unexpectedly, Wang Wensi came out of the house and said angrily...... "Wang Jian glanced at Li Minqiang and didn't say anything further.

Xiao Yulin said: "Say it, don't be afraid." ”

Li Minqiang said: "Those who are officials cannot harm the public and private interests. ”

Wang Jian said: "Wang Wensi came out and said, 'What's wrong?' Do you have eyeballs on the top of your head? Don't look at whose home this is! Don't you want to do it? I said I can't do anything like you! He said, 'If you don't do it, forget it!' I'm still out of this pit of yours, and you'll hand over the key to the distribution room tomorrow! The key was with me at the time. I said, I'll give you the keys now! I left the key still on the ground and left. ”

When Li Minqiang heard this, he shook his head and sighed, his expression was very serious.

"Minqiang, do they say that I can still do this as an electrician? The salt and rice eaten are reasonable and reasonable. Why can't village cadres not pay electricity bills? Where there is a car, there is a rut, and where there is a tree, there is a shadow. If the people of the whole village don't pay the electricity bill like they are officials, isn't it chaotic? ”

Xiao Yulin glanced at Li Minqiang, who was thinking about things with his head down, and said to Wang Jian: "You are sad, the purpose of Minqiang's question is to deal with this matter." ”

Li Minqiang raised his head and said, "We will definitely deal with this matter and give you a satisfactory answer soon." ”

Wang Jian said: "The people from the town electricity management office asked me why I was not an electrician, and they were also very angry after I told the reason, they did not recognize Wang Xueyong as an electrician, because he did not have an electrician qualification certificate at all, and there was no training. ”

Li Minqiang felt that the matter was already very clear, so he said: "Don't tell anyone what we are talking about, you have to believe that we will handle this matter well." ”

"I believe it."

Xiao Yulin asked Wang Jian: "What are you looking for me?" ”

"I want to use your iron rake, and I'll go and level the vegetable furrow tomorrow."

"I'll bring it to you."

Wang Jian carried the iron rake and left. Xiao Yulin returned to the house and asked Minqiang: "What do you think about this matter?" ”

"You bring Brother Jianxin, let's discuss."

Xiao Yulin went to call Li Jianxin, and Li Minqiang was thinking: The matter of the FRP factory and the matter of electricity must be dealt with seriously, and if the problem is not solved, it will seriously affect the stable development of the village. What to do with miles? In fact, things are not complicated, this is obviously harmful to the public and private, and the money that has not been paid must be paid. Thinking about it again, this happened to the village cadres, especially the old secretary who had just left his post, what would he think if he didn't handle it well? Wang Wensi is now a member of the team, will it affect the unity of the team?
