Qiao Liang returned to the county and did not go back to the county courtyard directly, but came to the county bureau.

Director's Office.

Upon hearing Qiao Liang coming, Feng Zhanming walked to the door with a smile and greeted him: "What wind is blowing today? How did he blow the distinguished guest of County Mayor Qiao?"

"County Magistrate Feng, I'm here to find you something." Qiao Liang was anxious about the meat products processing factory and had no intention of politely greeting Feng Zhanming.

"What's the matter?" Feng Zhanming was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Come on, County Mayor Qiao sits in the house first, let's talk about it slowly if you have something to do."

He enthusiastically invited Qiao Liang to the office to sit down. Feng Zhanming made a cup of tea for Qiao Liang by himself, and then sat down.

"County Magistrate Feng, I wonder if you know about Jiangdong Commercial Group's assistance to our meat products processing factory project in Liangbei County?" Qiao Liang asked.

"I heard that this seems to be a key project in our county, which is related to the poverty alleviation of the people in the pastoral area." Feng Zhanming nodded.

"Well, that's right, this project is in some trouble right now." Qiao Liang told Feng Zhanming about the fire of a group of masked men on the construction site.

"Is there such a thing?" Feng Zhanming looked shocked, "This group of people is simply bold, and they openly destroy poverty alleviation projects in broad daylight, and the nature is even worse."

"That's right, so I hope the police station in the jurisdiction can bring this group of people to justice, but they kept emphasizing the difficulties to me, saying that it was difficult to solve the case, and their attitude was extremely perfunctory." Qiao Liang's face looked ugly, "County Magistrate Feng, are you angry?"

"County Magistrate Qiao calms down. When I look back, I will definitely criticize the head of the police station in the jurisdiction." Feng Zhanming looked serious and immediately explained, "County Magistrate Qiao, I have also gone to the pastoral area for investigation several times and have also learned about the following situation. The pastoral police station does have their difficulties..."

Feng Zhanming said this, paused, observed Qiao Liang's expression, and continued: "County Magistrate Qiao, you also know that the situation in Liangbei County is vast and sparsely populated, and most of the population is mainly concentrated in the county town. In pastoral areas, the vast grasslands and Gobi beaches, many places can be said to be indifferent. It is indeed difficult to rely on the police force of the police station alone. Moreover, there is a problem of insufficient funds in the entire police system of Liangbei County. Not to mention the police station below, even our county bureau often encounters insufficient funds for case handling. I am not afraid of you making fun of it. I went to the Finance Bureau to ask for money yesterday. It is almost the end of the year. Our police station has not even allocated the funds for changing winter clothes this year. Do you think our bureau is poor?"

Qiao Liang listened to Feng Zhanming's words and felt something was wrong, but he didn't think much about it now. He just complained to Feng Zhanming to lay the groundwork for the request later. He listened to Feng Zhanming telling the difficulties in the bureau, Qiao Liang did not respond, but said: "County Magistrate Feng, the police station in the district is insufficient. I have an idea whether I can send a few people from the bureau and set up a temporary police station next to the construction site."

"County Magistrate Qiao, your idea is good, but I am a good wife here, but I can't cook without rice." Feng Zhanming smiled bitterly, "The police resources in the bureau are too short of shortage. Our case handlers can be said to be one by one and two, and there is no extra manpower at all. In theory, the shortage of manpower can be recruited to solve the problem of insufficient police resources. However, the county finance gave us limited funds, and even the daily case handling funds cannot be fully guaranteed, let alone give us enough funds to recruit auxiliary police, which has led to not many auxiliary police recruiting, and we cannot solve the problem of insufficient manpower at all."

"County Magistrate Feng means that this matter is not OK, right?" Qiao Liang's face looked ugly again. He could hear that Feng Zhanming, the same attitude as Director Sun of the police station, was looking for excuses to refuse.

"County Magistrate Qiao, it's not that I don't help, but that there is no extra staff in the bureau. I hope County Magistrate Qiao understands our difficulties." Feng Zhanming looked helpless and said, "Of course, I also know the importance of this assistance project. Our police station has the responsibility to ensure the security of the whole county, let alone protect such key poverty alleviation projects. Therefore, it is no problem to send police forces to patrol on a daily basis, but it is impossible to stay."

Hearing Feng Zhanming say this, Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment, his face eased, he looked up at Feng Zhanming, thinking that he had misunderstood the other party just now? Judging from Feng Zhanming's attitude, it seems that he doesn't want to help.

At this time, Feng Zhanming said again: "County Magistrate Qiao, but the distance from the county town to the pastoral area is a bit far. He arranges people to run back and forth like this every day. To be honest, it is a waste of police resources, so the key is to put the responsibility on the police station in the jurisdiction. Let's do this. I personally communicate with the police station and ask them to send police to the construction site to patrol during several periods of time every day. This is the best and most convenient way. What do you think this is the case?"

"County Magistrate Feng, is it really impossible to set up a temporary police station on the construction site?" Qiao Liang still wanted to fight for it.

"County Magistrate Qiao, this is really difficult." Feng Zhanming smiled bitterly again, "If the county can give us more funds and solve the problem of insufficient funds and insufficient staffing, the matter will be simple."

Listening to Feng Zhanming's words, Qiao Liang curled his lips puzzledly, saying that, it is inseparable from the issue of funding. You, Feng Zhanming, are at least the deputy county magistrate, and you can't even get more funds. What can I do?

Seeing that Feng Zhanming could not get a satisfactory reply, Qiao Liang stood up quite depressedly: "County Magistrate Feng, since that's the case, I'll leave first."

"County Magistrate Qiao, please sit for a while." Feng Zhanming said.

"No, I have to rush back. The assistance project is a major event in the county. Now that something has happened, I need to report to the county magistrate Shang and communicate with him well." Qiao Liang thought about looking for Shang Ke. He was actually very clear that Shang Ke could not see him, but Qiao Liang had to go to Shang Ke. First, test Shang Ke's attitude, and second, explain the pros and cons to Shang Ke, so that Shang Ke knows the interests.

"Okay, I won't delay County Magistrate Qiao. If we have the chance, let's find time to have a meal together." Feng Zhanming said politely.

Qiao Liang nodded, said nothing, and left Feng Zhanming's office.

When he walked to the door, Qiao Liang paused and turned around to remind Feng Zhanming: "County Magistrate Feng, the pastoral police station, please ask County Magistrate Feng to make a call in person, and be sure to ask them to send police force to the construction site several times every day."

"Don't worry, County Magistrate Qiao, I remember it, I'll fight soon." Feng Zhanming nodded with a smile.

Qiao Liang felt a little relieved when he heard this. Although he could not strive to set up a temporary police station on the construction site, it would be better to get this result than not.

As soon as Qiao Liang left, Feng Zhanming turned back to the office and closed the office door.

He took out his cell phone and Feng Zhanming called out. After answering, Feng Zhanming said: "County Magistrate Shang, I have sent Deputy County Mayor Qiao away. Judging from his words, it seems that he is going to find you."

"Come to find me?" Shang Ke was amused, "Can this Deputy County Mayor Qiao come and ask me?"

"County Magistrate Shang, then I don't know, but I think Deputy County Magistrate Qiao is really anxious." Feng Zhanming said with a smile.

"It's good if he's anxious, just afraid he won't be anxious." Shang Ke grinned, "Okay, I understand, Lao Feng, you're doing a good job..."

Downstairs, after Qiao Liang got into the car, He Qingqing, who had been waiting in the car, couldn't wait to ask, "County Magistrate Qiao, what do you say about County Magistrate Feng?"

"The same words as Director Sun say are said to be the police force is tight." Qiao Liang snorted.

"It seems that the police station can't count on it anymore." He Qingqing secretly glanced at Qiao Liang, and now he could only go to find Shangke. He didn't know if Qiao Liang would be willing to bow his head. She knew how much Shangke hated Qiao Liang, unless Qiao Liang took the initiative to bow his head, Shangke would never speak for the assistance project.

"Although County Magistrate Feng said that the police force was tight and he could not set up a temporary police station, he was willing to say hello to the pastoral police station and ask them to send police to the construction site to patrol every day." Qiao Liang said, turning to look at He Qingqing, "Director He, please turn around and contact Shi Lei to see if their station has arranged patrol missions to the construction site."

"Okay, I'll confirm with him after looking back." He Qingqing nodded.

After explaining He Qingqing, Qiao Liang took out a cigarette and lit it. The reason why he asked He Qingqing to confirm with Shi Lei again was because he did not completely believe Feng Zhanming's words. Perhaps Feng Zhanming was just like the people below, and was just perfunctory to him, but except for selective belief, Qiao Liang had no other way for the time being.

Seeing that Qiao Liang was in a irritable mood, He Qingqing did not rush to start the car, but sat quietly. Qiao Liang was the deputy county magistrate in charge of poverty alleviation, and she could understand Qiao Liang's mood at this moment.

"Director He, who told me, who was instructing this group of masked men who set fire?" Qiao Liang asked suddenly.

"Ah?" He Qingqing was stunned when she heard this, shook her head, "County Magistrate Qiao, I can't guess. If I can know, I can guide the police station to solve the case."

"Haha, I'm afraid you won't be able to solve the case if you know it." Qiao Liang smiled.

"Does County Magistrate Qiao know who instructed me?" He Qingqing heard something strange from Qiao Liang's tone.

"Maybe, I have guessed the answer." Qiao Liang said quietly.

"Can County Magistrate Qiao guess the messenger behind the scenes?" He Qingqing was shocked and asked anxiously, "Who is it?"

"Haha, I'm not 100% sure. It's meaningless to say this now." Qiao Liang frowned and reached out to bounce the ash, "Let's go back to the county compound, it's time to go and meet County Mayor Shang for a while."
