Chapter 411: A Small Matter For Officials Is A Big Matter For The Masses
Li Yuanlang stood up and whispered a few words into Tao Feng's ear, then strode toward the bar.
"Boss, lend me a light." He took out his cigarette and said to the boss.
The boss rolled his eyes, took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it for Li Yuanlang.
Appearance comes from the heart. At first glance, this person is not a kind-hearted person.
After taking a puff of cigarette, Li Yuanlang glanced at the tables of diners and said in a seemingly unintentional tone: "Your business here is not very strong, and there are not many people eating."
The boss turned off the lighter with a "pop" and said coldly: "It's none of your business. You don't have to worry about how many people I have here to eat."
Li Yuanlang didn't argue with him, and still said with a smile: "Since there are not many people eating, you must not have much turnover in a day, and you will not be able to sell it for more than 5,000 yuan."
"What do you mean?" The boss's expression immediately changed, his brows knitted together, and he walked out of the bar and stood directly opposite Li Yuanlang.
He was not tall, half a head shorter than Li Yuanlang. He could only raise his head when he looked at Li Yuanlang.
"You're here to cause trouble, right?" The boss gritted his teeth and seemed to be ready to take action.
Seeing this scene, Tao Feng quickly put down his cell phone and ran over quickly to separate Li Yuanlang from his boss. If he really wanted to take action, Li Yuanlang had his own shortcomings and he couldn't bear this responsibility.
Li Yuanlang's smiling face immediately turned serious. He took out his work ID card and showed it to his boss, "I'm from the city government. This is my ID. I'm here to investigate your restaurant. In order to pay 10,000 yuan, all the residents in the building
I can’t get enough water. I want to ask you what’s your intention.”
The boss glanced at Li Yuanlang's work permit and said angrily: "What can the city government do? If I don't evade taxes and do illegal business, what can you do to me? Besides, I will lose ten thousand yuan."
.Okay, the government wants to come forward to solve the problem. Well, if it comes with 20,000 yuan, I will close the house in the afternoon and let the construction team come to my house to take over the road."
The boss was so arrogant. As expected, when he heard the name of the city government, he felt like he had encountered a big fat pig. If he didn't cut off a piece of meat, he would suffer a loss. The original ten thousand yuan was instantly increased to twenty thousand yuan.
"Okay, isn't it just 20,000 yuan? We'll give it to you, but you have to make a written promise and won't go back on it."
Not only was the boss surprised, but Tao Feng was also confused.
What's going on with Deputy Secretary-General Li? The boss is obviously trying to kill people with nonsense words. Why did you agree to him? Isn't this just helping the evil?
The boss almost burst into joy. This guy is simply a bully. He gave him the money he was told, and he really regrets that it was less. If it was thirty thousand yuan, looking at his attitude, this fool would agree to it.
There is no other way. I have nowhere to find the regret medicine. I need to get the 20,000 yuan in front of me first.
He immediately agreed and took out a pen and paper to scribble down a few lines, which meant that he would charge 20,000 yuan in maintenance fees from the city government and agree to the construction team of the water supply company to work on his home. Based on this, he would never regret it.
Li Yuanlang saw the boss signing his name with his own eyes, so he took out his mobile phone and transferred 20,000 yuan to the boss on the spot.
When the boss saw that the money had arrived, his eyes and eyebrows were so happy that he immediately became polite to Li Yuanlang.
He also said that he would treat him to lunch today, and Li Yuanlang could order whatever he wanted.
Li Yuanlang refused directly, walked back to his place and asked Tao Feng quietly, "Have you made all the calls I asked you to make?"
"After the beating, they just waited for a word from me and rushed over immediately."
"Okay, let's eat first and then watch the show." Li Yuanlang picked up a mouthful of food and started to devour it.
Tao Feng thought for a while, and based on Li Yuanlang's actions just now, he finally understood the good intentions of Deputy Secretary-General Li, and he could not help but have a new understanding of Li Yuanlang.
The meal was eaten very quickly. When leaving, Li Yuanlang paid the bill first and did not agree with the boss to waive the bill, not even leaving the change.
After he and Tao Feng left, the boss smiled and touched his chin with a proud expression.
The waitress came over and asked him why he was happy.
The boss pointed at Li Yuanlang's back and said mockingly: "I met two fools from the city government and they were willing to take advantage of me and let me kill them at will. Do you think it's fun or not?"
The waitress didn't understand. She blinked and thought for a long time.
The boss didn't want to explain too much and told her to give everyone in the restaurant a day off in the afternoon and close the restaurant to thank customers.
Did you hear that? He said that the building was closed to thank customers, not that it was closed to allow the construction team to move in and work.
This guy must have had some evil intentions and wanted to close the door so that no one could find out what others were doing. Then he would ask for more money and he would not give up until he got tens of thousands of dollars.
He was so naive that he thought Li Yuanlang gave him 20,000 yuan in vain, and he would probably have no problem asking for another 20,000 yuan.
And Li Yuanlang, who was sitting in the car, was not far from the restaurant, so he could have a full view of the restaurant entrance.
He told Tao Feng, "Hurry up and call. I will tell you that no one from your department will be left behind. All of them will be here."
Less than half an hour after he spoke, five or six departments including district taxation, industry and commerce, health and epidemic prevention, and fire protection appeared in Xinxian Restaurant one after another.
The boss has been kept under wraps. It is rare to see him in normal times. What happened today? You came to my place for a party?
He didn't dare to offend any of these gentlemen, so he offered cigarettes and tea, and ordered the kitchen to start cooking immediately to entertain everyone.
Unexpectedly, these people who usually called him brothers all had serious faces at this time, and they were doing business according to the rules. They wanted to check his tax payment status, whether his health was up to standard, whether his industrial and commercial license exceeded the scope of business, whether there were fire escapes, etc.
.
The boss was immediately dumbfounded. If he really took it seriously, he must be unqualified in some way.
He immediately put on a smile and hoped that everyone would be accommodating, but no one gave him face. After careful inspection, he found that there were many problems, so he ordered the company to close down and seal it.
The boss was completely confused. He didn't know who he had offended and why he was punished.
Finally, someone who had some friendship with him revealed in private that he had taken money he shouldn't have taken and offended people he shouldn't have offended.
After hearing this, the boss immediately thought of charging Li Yuanlang's 20,000 yuan, and finally realized that this man whom he thought was a fool had taught him a lesson in greed.
I happened to have the mobile phone number left by Li Yuanlang on my hand, so I dialed it quickly. After saying all the good things, I almost kowtowed and begged Li Yuanlang to let him go, but he didn't dare to do it anymore.
He also promised not to pay a penny, so he asked the construction team to come to his place to work and connect the water pipeline.
Putting down the phone, Li Yuanlang sneered slightly: "If you hold me back, you will retreat. We should severely punish such a conscienceless person so that he can remember."
Tao Feng flattered you at the right time, "Deputy Secretary-General Li, your move is really brilliant. I am completely convinced."
Li Yuanlang said seriously: "Director Tao, we must have an upright heart when doing things. Today's matter is not a question of whether we can do it, but whether we want to do it. You see, now the construction team has arrived. I
It is estimated that the water issue for the common people will be solved soon."
"Let's put ourselves in someone else's shoes and put ourselves in their shoes. What would it be like if you had no water in your home for more than ten days? Petitions are no small matter. It is often a small matter in our eyes, but it is not a big deal in the hearts of ordinary people.
It’s a big deal.”
"Deputy Secretary-General Li, I understand." Tao Feng's words were by no means a compliment, but an expression of his true feelings.
This is the first thing Li Yuanlang has done since he took office. He doesn't want to end at the end.
While waiting for the construction team to work on site, he arranged for the municipal sanitation department to drive two sprinkler trucks to deliver free water to residents in the entire building.
He also spent his own money to buy a large truckload of mineral water and distributed it to every household.
When delivering water, special emphasis is placed on delivering it to the homes of the elderly and those with limited mobility.
The residents' domestic water and drinking water were provided here, and the construction team over there was busy repairing the pipelines. Many people gathered in front of the restaurant, talking in twos and threes.
Everyone is still wondering, something that has not been resolved for more than ten days will be resolved in the blink of an eye.
There is also a sprinkler truck delivering water for use, and a large truck of bottled mineral water. Is this a good thing done by some Qingtian man?
After asking around, I found out that a young cadre in his thirties from the city government severely punished the greedy restaurant owner and urged the construction team to quickly move in to work. It seemed that in a few hours, there would be a rush of water that had not been seen in a long time.
Will reappear soon.
"The water is coming, the water is coming!"
In just half an hour, the good news came, and the residents rushed to tell each other and cheered.
At that time, someone suggested that a big banner must be made and given to the city government, especially the young cadre who helped them solve major problems.
But when asked, no one knew the man's last name.
Someone with sharp eyes noticed a black car parked near the restaurant and said, "Yes, it seems that the cadre is sitting in the car. Let's go and ask."
