What does Director Shi need to worry about? What does it mean to solve this problem today?

Listening to Chen Ping's words, Shi Xuming, director of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, felt uneasy. After all, when he came, he felt that Chen Ping was not in a good mood now, so of course he would not understand Chen Ping's words literally. In his opinion, Chen Ping's words were obviously of other profound meanings to point his own.

Thinking of this, Shi Xuming hurriedly said to Chen Ping: "I'm sorry, Mayor Chen, it's because of my negligence in work that such reports appear. But please don't worry, Mayor Chen, I will definitely find out about this matter when I go back and give Mayor Chen a satisfactory explanation."

Although Shi Xuming said this, Chen Ping knew very well that what he said was to find out was nothing more than perfunctory. How could a small director of housing and construction solve the result of a city's rapid development?

So Chen Ping immediately looked up at Shi Xuming and said dissatisfiedly: "Chatcha Chacha Cha Cha What are you using to investigate? Can you Director Shi make money to let the people buy all the empty houses? Can Director Shi make all the empty houses live in? Or are you Director Shi capable of making news media across the country turn a blind eye to the ghost town phenomenon in Luzhuang City?"

Chen Ping's questioning after questioning made Shi Xuming completely unaware of how to answer, and he could only lower his head like a child who had done something wrong.

However, Chen Ping did not finish his words at this point. He then turned to Shen Jie, the director of Land and Resources, and said, "And Director Shen, the land used for this housing is approved from you. How could you approve the land so casually? Why didn't you even do the most basic investigation? Or did you use your power for personal gain? The approved land has become money and returned to your Director Shen's own pocket?"

"Mayor Chen, this is not the case," Shen Jie explained to Chen Ping in panic, "I admit that I did have some negligence when approving the land, but I did this for Luzhuang to better respond to the call of the municipal party committee and government and actively carry out urbanization construction. I have absolutely no selfishness. Mayor Chen, please believe me!"

How could Chen Ping believe his explanation? In an industry with such rich oil and water in real estate, if the Land and Resources Director who approves construction land does not make any money, it will definitely be the sun coming out of the west.

But Chen Ping was not here to pursue these things today, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't panic either. I said I asked you to come today to solve this problem. If I really want to hold you accountable, then I'm probably not me who came to talk to you today."

What Chen Ping said is indeed true. With Chen Ping's relationship with the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Xiao Shufei, if he really wants to hold him accountable, he is afraid that the Discipline Inspection Commission will come directly to arrest people. How could he sit and talk to them like this?

Thinking of this, Shi Xuming and Shen Jie felt a little relieved. They said: "Mayor Chen, please give me any tasks. We will do our best to make up for our previous negligence in work!"

Chen Ping nodded. He knew that Shi Xuming and Shen Jie would definitely say that, so he said: "I wonder if Director Shi and Director Shen have paid attention to current affairs news. There is an official in Henan who actually owns eleven houses, and their family actually owns 29 houses. This is really shocking!"

Chen Ping's words made Shi Xuming and Shen Jie's hearts thrill, and they seemed to have a very bad premonition. Sure enough, after a pause, Chen Ping then asked: "I heard that this phenomenon not only happens in Henan, but also in our Luzhuang. Some officials took advantage of their positions and bought a lot of real estate for themselves. Some of them were even quite a few of the real estates were affordable housing. I wonder if Director Shi, do you know about such a thing?"

Supervision Director Min Feng, Housing and Urban-Rural Development Director Shi Xuming, and Land and Resources Director Chen Jie, are also old bureaucrats who have been ups and downs in the officialdom for many years, so when Chen Ping asked this sentence, they immediately understood what Chen Ping meant.

The reason why Chen Ping brought up this house girl was simply to tell them that the Luzhuang Ghost Town may not be their dereliction of duty, but because some officials illegally hoarded real estate. Chen Ping asked them to come because he wanted to find out the officials who illegally hoarded real estate and handle it strictly to face it.

This is a common method in the officialdom. Whenever there is a serious problem that can no longer be covered, the officials will deal with a few problematic officials and then put all the shit on these officials.

Just like the nude photo incident of the county party secretary in central Anhui, the final arrest of a middle school principal, and the extremely high housing vacancy rate in Henan New District was exposed, and the house girl appeared. But in fact, these people were not the main reason at all. After all, no matter how rich and powerful the house girl has, she would not be able to buy the entire new district, so they are destined to be blamed. This time, Chen Ping obviously also planned to use this method to deal with problem officials to cover the news and act like a show, otherwise he would not have called the Supervisory Director Min Feng.

Judging from the expressions on the three of them, Chen Ping knew that they had already figured it out, so he continued: "You must have some understanding of the situation in Luzhuang now. Although the provincial party committee and government have been lifted against us, our Luzhuang is still at the forefront of national economic development and is the target of national attention. How can such a thing happen at this time?"

As soon as Chen Ping finished speaking, Shi Xuming said first: "I fully agree with Mayor Chen's idea. The economic development momentum of our Luzhuang was originally thriving, and the people's living standards have also steadily improved under the leadership of the municipal party committee and government. However, some officials ignored the overall economic development situation and arbitrarily abused their power to hoard real estate and raised housing prices, which led to the rise of housing vacancy rate. With the emergence of the ghost town phenomenon, these officials are really ruining the rat shit!"

Then Chen Jie also said: "Mayor Chen said very much that the municipal party committee and government built affordable housing to give middle- and low-income families a chance to buy a house, but some officials regarded these affordable housing as tools for making money and abused their power to buy and sell at a high price. It is precisely this speculative behavior that has led to the increase in the vacancy rate of Luzhuang's housing, which is completely causing trouble to the municipal party committee and government!"

Min Feng, the supervisory director who was also called by Chen Ping, also said at this time: "I didn't expect that some officials are so brave now that they dare to embezzle real estate so blatantly. This is really against the identity of a public servant of the people. As the supervisory director, I will definitely fight with such a bad apple to the end!"

"It seems that the three directors have a consistent understanding and judgment of the situation in Luzhuang, and they all understand the harm of this kind of thing to the future development of our Luzhuang City. So I just don't know what clues the three directors have, and do you know which officials are abusing their power and embezzling these affordable housing that belongs to the people?" Chen Ping asked.

Faced with Chen Ping's question, the three of them stammered and hesitated. Min Feng said: "I'm sorry Mayor Chen. Since these real estate transactions are carried out privately, they have a very confidentiality nature. In addition, our Supervision Bureau has some negligence in its work in this area, it is difficult for me to report an accurate list to Mayor Chen now."

Chen Jie then said: "Mayor Chen, my responsibility is to approve construction land and review whether these contractors have the qualifications to build houses. As for whom they sell the house after they build it, I have no right to ask about it."

Shi Xuming also said: "Mayor Chen is like this. Although I have certain management rights for house sale, many officials do not use their own names to buy real estate, but use their wives and sons, and some even use their relatives' names. Even if I can remember these real estate lists, I cannot tell which official did what he did."

Listening to the explanations of the three, Chen Ping sneered in his heart. The answers of these three were as expected. These officials were like this. They often wanted to be aware of being bold and unwilling to offend people easily. Therefore, they were often passionate and indignant when talking about things, but if they were carefully examined, they would never ask even a specific person or thing.

If it was normal, then it might have been like this to mix it with them, but Chen Ping did not intend to let it go so simply today.

Chen Ping said: "I understand your difficulties, but this matter must be solved. Otherwise, once the superiors investigate, I dare not say that no other officials can escape, you officials in charge!"

Chen Ping's words shocked Min Feng, Shi Xuming and Shen Jie. They knew that they had no way out, so they could only express their opinions to Chen Ping. The first person to speak was Min Feng, the Director of Supervision. He said: "Please rest assured, Mayor Chen. When I go back, I immediately launch an investigation into the number of properties owned by the officials and deal with the officials with serious problems to face the situation!"

After Min Feng finished speaking, Shi Xuming and Shen Jie continued: "Mayor Chen, please rest assured. As the relevant departments of the real estate industry, we will definitely cooperate with Director Min's investigation and leave these ** elements without any hiding!"

"I believe in the determination of the three directors, but it is not enough to have determination alone. What I hope more is to see your final result." Chen Ping said, "I can see this newspaper, and other leaders of the municipal party committee can also see it, so I think you will know more about some consequences than me, so I won't say more. This is not discussed, but must!"

Just when Chen Ping agreed to Min Feng, Shi Xuming and Chen Jie, on the other side, the meeting between Concubine Xiao Shufei and the Discipline Inspection Commission, the Political and Legal Affairs Commission and the Organization Department officials came to an end.

Concubine Xiao Shufei said: "This is the situation now. I think it is definitely not a coincidence that the situation in our Luzhuang appeared in the People's Daily. Of course, I can't say who did this on purpose."

"But since the matter has happened, we must find a way to solve it," said Xiao Shufei. "The Discipline Inspection Commission needs to investigate the property owned by officials, but this is just a hindsight. We need to strictly manage the property of officials. Each official needs to declare the property they own. And we are all members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. I hope everyone can play a leading role."
