Jagged City - Chapter 170 Frequent Good News

Lin Tao and Mr. Hu took all the cash and gold bars from several backpacks, went back to the gold mine, and asked more than 50 villagers who were digging the gold mine to ask about the situation. One by one fearful. 【 _ 】Especially very afraid of Lord Tiger.

Lin Tao said: "Everyone, don't panic. I am the deputy mayor of Xiliang City Government. Now Xiao Liehu is committing crimes and doing meritorious service. What do you say? Don't be burdened. I also want to tell you a piece of news that Mr. Qin and the Qin family There was a shootout between two people watching the mine and four bodyguards because of the uneven distribution of spoils. Everyone died on the mountain. Except for Xiao Liehu, two of the other four thugs were shot dead by the police and one was arrested. Qinglanggou came here. The Qin family that was pressing on your heads is gone."

After a while, a bold villager asked: "What you said is true, are you really the mayor?"

Because Lin Tao really doesn't look like the mayor, he looks like a student on an outing in sportswear.

"It's true. What Mayor Lin said is right. I have pleaded guilty to the law. When I surrender to the Public Security Bureau, you can avenge your grievances and avenge your grievances." Master Hu opened his mouth wide.

"Don't dare, Mr. Hu's face is cold and hot-hearted. We all know that Mr. Hu is a man of affection. He committed himself to this after receiving the great kindness of Mrs. Qin. Then Qin Batian didn't know how many girls and daughters-in-law in the village were harmed. If it weren't for Lord Hu beat him, and we have to suffer. In fact, we have always been very grateful to Lord Tiger. Don't worry, Lord Tiger, our villagers will intercede for you." Said a 50-year-old villager.

"Okay, come down the mountain with me, and later count the list of miners, and the name of the village that died in the mine before, and you will be responsible for the statistics." Lin Tao appointed the bold villager to say.Then he returned to the village with the panic-stricken people.The police from the township police station had arrived, and Xiao Qin ran over, followed by the director of the police station.

"Chief!" Seeing that Lin Tao was safe and sound, Xiao Qin felt relieved.

"Mayor Lin, Du Jiang is reporting to you. Qinglanggou Village Chief Qin Feng has been captured. Please instruct."

Lin Tao nodded and said, "There was a gun battle on the mountain and there were seven dead bodies. You send a few comrades of the police to maintain the scene. Wait for the people from the Municipal Bureau to deal with it."

"Yes!"

Du Jiang dispatched the deputy director and three policemen.He and the two policemen stayed by Lin Tao's side.There are a hundred families in the village, all of whom have been oppressed by the Qin family more or less, especially the bitter families who knew the Qin family's downfall and knelt down in front of Lin Tao to cry for grievances.Lin Tao understood the situation one by one, comforted him, and expressed his position. With the government's impartial law enforcement, no one who breaks the law will escape.The other is to make bold decisions, distribute 300 million in cash to the villagers, 2 for each of the 30 villagers, and [-] for the fifty miners.The seven families who died for unknown reasons were compensated [-] yuan each, and Li Ergou's family compensated [-] yuan as hospital expenses and nutrition expenses.Fang Liang wrote an agreement on the spot and read it to the village name.The money will be distributed by the new village chief in three days.

The village committee was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside. When Fang Liang read out the village's economic compensation agreement, many people shed tears of pain, and then began to applaud and celebrate.

"Mayor Lin, these Qin family members have also bullied the people!" A dozen young men pushed seven or eight relatives of the Qin family who were tied up in a big way over.

"Kill them!"

"They are lackeys of the Qin family!"

"Kill them!"

For a while the crowd was excited.

Lin Tao hurriedly said: "The comrades in the Public Security Bureau will make a record later. Whatever crime should be convicted, it is the crime. Now that the Qin family has fallen, we can't break the law ourselves because of revenge. Everyone must exercise restraint!"

"Mayor Lin is our benefactor, we all listen to Mayor Lin."

"Yes, we all listen to Mayor Lin."

After a while, people from the County Public Security Bureau arrived, and they were detained together with Xiao Liehu.Get in the police car.Lin Tao took the opportunity to report the relevant situation to Secretary Gao and Mayor Xu, especially asking the city's Gold Bureau to send experts to investigate the Qinglanggou gold mine.

Gao Yili, secretary of the county party committee, and Wang Tong, deputy county magistrate, arrived later to listen to Lin Tao's instructions.Under their rule, there was not only a gold mine that had been mined privately for more than ten years without knowing it, but also a bully like the Qin family controlled a village, seven or eight people were killed, and dozens of women were insulted. This bloody fact made the county party secretary Gao Yi Li can't hold his head up, because he has been the county magistrate for three years and secretary for four years, and he has been in Huokou County for seven years. This is dereliction of duty!

Lin Tao said sadly: "Comrade Gaoyili, the bloody fact of Qinglanggou is sad. This is because the villagers don't trust the government. The Qin family has endangered one party for a hundred years. We have been in the country for more than 50 years, and this place is still ruled by bandits. This is simply a big joke. Comrade Gao Yili, I will give you a task to repair the road leading to Qinglanggou within one month, and send a working group to Qinglanggou to do a good job in medical work and Do a good job in publicizing the legal system and do a good job in appeasement, can you do it?"

"Mayor Lin, I promise to do a good job, don't worry. I promise!" County Party Secretary Gao Yili stood up and solemnly assured.

"Well, for the economic compensation of Qinglanggou, I have temporarily made a compensation agreement for the village committee, and you are responsible for this matter. Within three days, a village chief who is trusted by all the villagers will be elected. I will take care of this matter. Inquiry. I will also investigate carefully to see if there are such bullies in other places in the county, but if they have any backing, they must be eliminated, and if there is resistance, report to me!"

Gao Yili nodded quickly, and once again promised to follow Lin Tao's instructions to get things done.Lin Tao left Qinglanggou while being sent off by the villagers, and returned to Xiliang City at seven o'clock in the evening.Lin Tao called Shang's hometown, and then opened a video to tell about the incident.Still old-fashioned, he patted the table.As Lin Tao said, it has been almost 60 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and Qinglanggou is actually ruled by generations of bandits. This is big news to the whole world, and it is definitely a big scandal to the Chinese government.Mr. Shang instructed Lin Tao to pay attention to the influence of the news media, because family ugliness should not be publicized. Once this kind of thing is publicized by foreign media, it will have a great international influence.

The Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government were happy and worried. The good news is that there is another gold mine in Xiliang City. Preliminary exploration found that the reserves of this gold mine will exceed [-] kilograms. Xiliang’s financial distress will be eased. Although the city The domestic media tried their best to minimize the influence, and only reported the Qinglanggou gold digging and oppression of the miners, only [-] words, but the provincial media heard the news and began to break the news, what is the history of bandits in Qinglanggou, contemporary gangsters ah!All eye-catching things.The secretary of the provincial party committee and the governor personally questioned the matter, and expressed criticism for the unfavorable supervision of the local government. What, what we get in Xiliang City is a real benefit. The reserve of [-] kilograms ranks among the top three in the country. We also have a golden rice bowl in Xiliang City. This mayor Lin is indeed the revival of Xiliang, A private visit to investigate the road construction situation, not only brought a bunch of bandits, but also made a big gold mine, tsk tsk—”

Secretary Gao also laughed and said, "That's true. Ever since Mayor Lin came, the stagnant water in Xiliang has been choppy, and no one else can stop it. By the way, Jin Delu has double-regulated, and many problems have been found. He must be dismissed, and the Standing Committee will announce it tomorrow, but for the county magistrate, you can see who is better."

Mayor Xu smiled and said: "I see it this way. Everyone recommends someone, write it in advance, and don't announce who recommended it. Then everyone discusses it collectively. The capable ones go up and the mediocre ones go down. Let's have a democracy."

"Okay!" Although Secretary Gao felt that this proposal was a little inappropriate, it was better than the two people recommending different candidates and putting them on the table with red faces!

Early the next morning, a copy of the Northwest Daily appeared on the desks of the leaders of the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government.Front page headlines. "Giving up one month's grain, the road leads to home." The red eye-catching headline, the subtitle is: Xiliang City's large-scale transportation construction starts.A few pictures are attached below, one is a picture of dolls studying in a dilapidated classroom in shabby clothes, the other is a picture of a few old men and idlers leaning against the wall, wearing shabby clothes, eating with a bowl with a gap, The third picture shows the villagers wearing white handkerchiefs wrapped in wool belly and building roads with shirtless shoulders, with sweat dripping down on their foreheads, but with a simple and honest smile on their faces, they tilted their heads and looked at the reporter.The following is a [-]-word narrative and a [-]-word commentary. People in Xiliang save one month’s rations to raise funds to build roads, which makes people feel very tragic. The poverty in the countryside makes these city people feel very desolate, but the look of hope His smile is even more touching.

Bai Dongbo received a call from Zhang Song of Huangliang City in the office of the executive deputy mayor of the Northwest City Government. He said in a frightened voice, "What? The special road construction funds of [-] million yuan have been allocated to Xiliang!"

"That's right, Lin Tao took away the special funds. Deputy Director Wen said that it was approved by Director Wu himself, and it also had the meaning of the governor. Have you read it today? The Northwest Daily is all for Xiliang traffic. Building momentum! This Lin Tao really has a high game, and I don't know how to get through the governor's way—"

"Isn't it possible that Huangliang City didn't get a penny?" Bai Dongbo was a little discouraged, because he had made a guarantee at the beginning and followed the path of Deputy Director Wen. He has been contacting Director Wu for the past two days to prepare To exchange feelings, I didn't expect to be put together by Lin Tao, no wonder Director Wu has been avoiding Bai Dongbo.

"I got 2000 million! But it's only one-tenth of Xiliang's. It seems that Xiliang's rise is unstoppable——"

Bai Dongbo hung up the phone with a pale face.He returned to Beijing a few days ago and asked his father Bai Changlu, who is the vice minister of the organization department, to find out about Lin Tao's background. He only knew that Lin Tao was favored by several military figures. What a deep background, Lin Tao's father has been in prison, but now he has become a big businessman, owns a four-star hotel, and a chain of fast food restaurants.Such a net worth can only be regarded as average in China.Such a background and net worth are still incomparable with those of those aristocratic families.Round Background His father is the deputy head of the Organization Department, and his friends are all officials above the ministerial level, which is much deeper than Lin Tao's political background.In terms of net worth, Bai Dongbo's aunt is engaged in petrochemicals, which also has his family's secret shares, and is slightly better than Lin's family in terms of funds.In terms of his own status, Bai Dongbo is the executive deputy mayor at the department level, and Lin Tao is only the deputy department level.I am superior to Lin Tao in every way, how could I lose to him, and I have been deflated twice, I am really not reconciled to it.His father, Bai Changlu, once told him that this official battle is not one person against one person, sometimes you have to know how to endure, sometimes you have to take advantage of the situation, and sometimes you have to use your strength to fight. One blow is fatal, or it is a secret attack.This is the real official fight.

Although Bai Dongbo understood what his father meant, he was a bit narrow-minded and very vindictive, so he wished he could beat Lin Tao to death immediately.That's why they spared no effort to make trouble secretly from all aspects.As long as it is unfavorable to Lin Tao and unfavorable to Xiliang, he is very interested. Therefore, he helped Zhang Song in Huangliang City twice. Enterprises, but Lin Tao brought in two large international consortiums and made a lot of fun, which didn't achieve his goal at all.This time it also ended in a hurry.Bai Dongbo leaned on the sofa with a muffled voice, opened the newspaper on the table, and found that the headline on the front page was about road construction in Xiliang.Looking at the dark face of the farmer, Bai Dongbo cursed, 'Damn old farmer in Northwest China! ’ and crumpled up the newspaper and threw it in the trash.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Liu Ming, the director of the Transportation Bureau, came to announce the good news. The special fund came down, [-] million yuan, something that I didn't even dare to think about before, but now it has been done.Liu Ming looked excited.

Lin Tao praised: "You have done a good job this time. You have to go to the province to repair the road. You need to contact various departments of the Provincial Communications Department to repair the road in Xiliang."

"Hey, I don't dare to take credit in front of you. If it weren't for you, how could Director Wu allocate the funds to Xiliang. Don't worry, I will definitely do a good job in the big transportation project. Maybe I will come to see you."

"What do I want your head for? But this large amount of funds is also a test for your transportation department. You must take good care of this fund and ensure that various departments do not abuse it or withhold it. You have to give me every cent. , if there is any corruption, I will be the first to settle the score with you!" Lin Tao said seriously.

"Yes, Mayor Lin, I promise to complete the task you assign."

"Okay, you are a busy person now, go back quickly, the Tello Group and the Jin Group will participate in the investment and road construction, your workload will increase, pay more attention to your diet, you can't die before you leave the school, and you will be exhausted It won’t work!” Lin Tao said jokingly.

"Don't worry, my body looks thin, and my bones are full of meat!"

"That's a crab! Is that you?"

Liu Ming left the city hall amidst Lin Tao's laughter. His back was straight, he was high-spirited, he walked dignifiedly, and greeted the city government officials warmly, which aroused the envy of many people. They all secretly thought, look, this Liu Ming took refuge in Mayor Lin, and it really went smoothly. Now that the major transportation projects are attracting the attention of the whole province, it will be difficult for Liu Ming not to be promoted in the future.Some people drank privately and said that Lin Tao, as the executive deputy mayor, called the wind and rain, and both Secretary Gao and Mayor Xu were around Mayor Lin. Lin Tao was actually the No. 1 in Xiliang.This discussion was not one person or two people, and formed a trend. Lin Tao felt quite uncomfortable when he heard about it. He didn't know the truth, and thought he had taken away the rights of the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor.I am no longer an unorganized and undisciplined person.

Secretary Gao and Mayor Xu also heard the rumors from the secretary, and at the same time criticized the secretary, and said that economic development is the top priority of Xiliang, and we revolve around Xiliang's economy.Mayor Lin is now the head of the car with full power.If other cadres can make Xiliang's economy develop greatly, I am also willing to escort him.

The Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government are preparing to watch the Standing Committee study the candidate for the county magistrate of Huokou County. The organization minister Chen Feng received a call from Ouyang Qing, the organization minister of Northwest Province. Let the Xiliang Organization Department do a good job in the work of the National People's Congress of Huokou County, so that the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of Huokou can be successfully elected at the end of the year.Chen Feng had just reported to Secretary Gao, and the red special line called Secretary Cui of the Provincial Party Committee.Secretary Cui said: "Although Kong Renzhi has been a secretary for many years, it is the first time he is in charge of a party. As a leader, Secretary Gao should criticize more and correct more, so that young cadres can grow up as soon as possible."

Secretary Gao naturally had to seriously implement the instructions of the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and said happily: "Comrade Kong Renzhi is welcome to come. He has been influenced by Secretary Cui for many years. He should be a good hand in both economics and governance. I believe that the county magistrate Kong Renzhi The arrival of Huokou County will drive the faster development of Huokou County!"

"Okay, young people have to hone their skills. You can't not criticize just because you used to be my secretary."

"Yes, we must follow Secretary Cui's instructions!"

Secretary Gao put down the phone, feeling a little pressure in his heart. It may not be a good thing to come to such a strong county magistrate for management, but the secretary of the provincial party committee secretary must be able to bring some real projects to the gap. After all, the county magistrate Kong is the head of the province. cooked.This should be something that Lao Xu is worried about. After all, he is the mayor—no, Lao Xu is about to retire soon. He should be the next mayor. According to his ability, Lin Tao is completely competent, but Lin Tao is only 28 years old. Some young people, the influence of seniority ranking in China is not so deep?I also hope that Lin Tao can become the mayor. This Lin Tao is very capable, and he doesn't fight for power, and he is dedicated to serving the public.The only personnel arrangement is to promote Liu Ming to the director of transportation to handle the large transportation project. Now the large transportation project is in full swing, and the special funds in the province have all been withdrawn. It can only be said that Lin Tao knows people and makes good use of them.Although Lin Tao is in the limelight, he does not crowd out other people, and he has no bad habits in the officialdom. If another powerful mayor is transferred, he will have a headache.Old Xu once expressed his position in public to apply to the organization to elect Lin Tao as mayor. If I also express my attitude, will this matter be possible?Or it will backfire.Secretary Gao was a little hesitant when he thought of this.

Lin Tao was notified that the Standing Committee was cancelled, and the province sent Secretary Cui's secretary, Kong Renzhi, as the county magistrate of Huokou County.Lin Tao met with Secretary Cui once, and the other party's attitude towards him was lukewarm, but he didn't seem to have anything against Secretary Cui. Lin Tao thought optimistically that the arrival of Kong Renzhi was a good thing. It may be more useful to fight for some funds in various departments in the province than myself. It is very good that he can come.

After a while, Fang Liang knocked on the door and came in, saying that Cao Mingli, director of the Bureau of Agriculture, had come to report on his work. Lin Tao was overjoyed, and had a banquet with the Provincial Department of Finance to wish the God of Wealth a few days ago. Although this person was tactful, Zhao Sifang waved the flag for himself , Attracted many characters, presumably the God of Wealth must give a little face.

"Hello, Mayor Lin!"

"Director Wang, please sit down!"

Director Wang of the Agricultural Bureau smiled and sat down half his buttocks. Fang Liang poured him tea. Director Wang nodded to Fang Liangliang, took a sip from the teacup, and praised: "Mayor Lin's tea is delicious!"

Lin Tao smiled and said, "It's delicious, let Xiaofang get you a box later."

"Thank you, Mayor Linlin! Mayor Lin, I'm here to announce the good news." Director Wang bowed a little awkwardly, with a pair of narrow eyes smiling, and his chubby face shone with oil. Although he was over 50 years old, he Very respectful to Lin Tao...

"What happy event?"

Director Wang sat up straight and said, "Following Mayor Lin's instructions, I went to the office to apply for poverty alleviation funds and various funds, and everything went very smoothly. I applied for eight projects, and five have been approved so far, with 8000 million funds in place. 2000. Only [-] million per year is not bad, I didn’t expect to give so much this year, Mayor Lin is capable!”

"Okay, very good, you have to make a good overall plan, this money can't be distributed blindly, it has to be used for practical purposes, and the money has to be reported to me! In addition, temporarily leave [-] million immobile. Use. If you have too much money, it is inevitable that some people will worry about it. I will give you a vaccination first. If the lower-level departments misuse the allocated funds, divert war, embezzle and accept bribes, I will be the first to settle the score with you." Lin Tao said seriously. He said, Lin Tao doesn't know much about the lower-level departments, and he can't let the Disciplinary Committee investigate one by one, so his purpose is to ignore your past, but under my leadership, no corruption will be allowed to happen.

"Yes, Mayor Lin, please don't worry, I will follow your instructions and put the funds into practice." Director Wang trembled in his heart, why did Mayor Lin's eyes look so scary, and beads of sweat appeared on his broad forehead , At first, I was thinking in my heart that with so much money, the counties and districts would definitely fight for it, and their pockets would quickly bulge up. Now that Lin Tao said this, his originally elated mood suddenly plummeted, and his eyes were full of fear.

Lin Tao saw that his words achieved his goal, and said with a smile: "I believe in Director Wang's ability to work. The scientific and reasonable use of this 8000 million yuan will promote the agricultural development of Xiliang. Your hard work and credit to the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government The leaders of the bureau will also see it. You go back to the comrades in the same bureau to study the allocation and utilization of the 8000 million yuan! Xiao Fang gave Director Wang a box of tea leaves!"

Lin Tao served tea to see off the guests, and Director Wu left respectfully. After exiting Lin Tao's office, he straightened up. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He glanced at Lin Tao's office with lingering fear, and then left quickly.On the way back to the Agricultural Bureau in a small car, Director Wu closed his eyes and leaned back. Looking back on the 8 minutes just now, he couldn't help but feel that Lin Tao was a very powerful official. Feeling, Deputy Mayor Lin is young and energetic, and the most important thing is his political achievements. In the past three months, he has heard that most of the gift givers have been blocked, so there is no need to mention cash. I once saw Lin Tao's driver and secretary giving nutrition and other things to the widowed old man. Whether it's artificial or natural, at least Lin Tao looks like a clean and honest official on the surface, and he is a very capable person. The deputy mayor of the municipal government is now basically led by the deputy mayor in the economic development work of the municipal government, and the secretary and the mayor support it in a high-profile manner!This is something that has never happened before outside. When Director Wang thought of this, he already had an idea, that is, to complete the task assigned by Mayor Lin excellently, "we must make Xiliang's agriculture unique, and do something that will benefit the people." agriculture.Lin Tao is the deputy mayor in charge of agriculture and rural areas. The Agricultural Bureau is outstanding, and as the mayor in charge, he naturally has a bright face.This Lin Tao is a person who values ​​ability, and he will never forget himself.Now that Liu Ming is very popular in the Transportation Bureau, it is not because he is favored by Mayor Lin. He has been in politics for many years. If he really puts in some effort, he will definitely be no worse than Liu Ming.I am already 53 years old, and it is very difficult to be promoted to another level, but with credit, at least I can keep the position of director general, and maybe I will be transferred to other powerful bureau chiefs.

Lin Tao is currently answering the call from Director Gao of the Bureau of Education. He would never have thought that in just 8 minutes, the Director of the Bureau of Agriculture would learn from the pain and make the most wise decision in his life.

"Hello, Mayor Lin, Mr. Gao from the Education Bureau of our city." Director Gao tried his best to speak respectfully on the other end of the phone, but he still wanted to reveal some unusual intimacy, so he called himself Mr. Gao.

"Hello, Director Gao!" Lin Tao said politely. It must be that the transfer of Mayor Xu's daughter has taken shape. When Lin Tao talked with Mayor Xu that time, Mayor Xu uttered the truth after drinking, showing the loneliness of his old age. .Lin Tao wanted to help Mayor Xu, and transferred his daughter back to Xiliang City by virtue of his identity as Mayor Xu. He felt that he didn't fit his status, even though he was a little shaken in his heart, but the habit of being an official for many years made him unable to save face.In addition, Mayor Xu's two sons and one daughter have basically developed a stubborn personality under his influence. They will not ask their father for help when they have difficulties in work and life. They are originally a family that loves each other. But this kind of communication method that is not good at expressing feelings eventually created some estrangement.Since Lin Tao came to Xiliang, Mayor Xu has always admired Lin Tao very much, and his support for work is getting stronger and stronger. He trusts him very much. Lin Tao regards Mayor Xu as an elder, so he wants to replace Mayor Xu. To solve problems, transfer Lao Xu's daughter Xu Yun back to Xiliang, the barriers of living in a city will gradually disappear, and Lao Xu will not be on the right track to resign in a prosperous way. It is indeed desolate to return home to retire.

"Mayor Lin, I have transferred Xu Yun back to Xiliang according to your instructions, and also transferred his boyfriend to our Xiliang. I will report the specific arrangement to you." Director Gao said carefully.

"Well, very good. Mayor Xu is getting old and needs children to take care of him, but Mayor Xu is devoted to work and neglects his family. As a subordinate, he has to share the worries of the leaders. This is just a normal transfer. Arrange work according to his ability. Well, don't take care of them too much, young people still need to exercise. If Mayor Xu asks about this, just say that you followed my instructions and don't talk too much." Lin Tao said while thinking.If there were subordinates ten years ago, Mayor Xu would definitely be furious, but the situation is different now. Mayor Xu will definitely understand his intentions if he handles this matter by himself.

"Yes, Xu Yun and his boyfriend are still very capable. Xu Yun is a high school teaching expert. I arranged her to practice in the literature and education department of the bureau. His boyfriend Li Tong is a master of education. He is the executive vice-principal of a junior high school, and I transferred him to Guhe District as the principal of the No. [-] Middle School, we also need someone like him in Xiliang," Secretary Gao said hastily.

Lin Tao was very satisfied with Director Gao's arrangement, and it was fair to take care of the two of them a little bit. He did understand Lin Tao's instructions, so Lin Tao was very happy. He asked about the situation of the Education Bureau. Director Gao answered them one by one, and begged Lin Tao to come The Education Bureau inspected and found that the Education Bureau was also facing a change of term. Director Gao wanted to borrow Lin Tao's power, and Lin Tao readily agreed to do so. Director Gao hung up the phone amidst his gratitude.
