Seeing Liu Haotian's stern expression, Liang Youde sneered in his heart, but reminded him: "Secretary Liu, you must personally come forward for this matter, because you are the number one!"
Liu Haotian glanced at Liang Youde coldly and said, "Mayor Liang and Deputy Secretary Chu Yuncheng are coming with me." After saying that, Liu Haotian walked out. Chu Yuncheng, deputy secretary of the town committee, immediately followed Liu Haotian.
Liang Youde had no choice but to keep up.
When Liu Haotian came to the gate, the people outside the gate immediately began to shout loudly: "We want compensation, you can't fool us like this!"
"If this is not resolved, we will go to the province to petition!"
Various sounds came to Liu Haotian's ears one after another.
Liu Haotian walked to the door and said to the guard on duty: "Open the door."
The old man on duty looked at the secretary of the town committee who had just taken office and was still hot on his butt, and said with worry: "Secretary Liu, this door cannot be opened. Look at these people outside, they are almost going crazy."
Liu Haotian waved his hand: "It's okay. If something happens, I'll take care of it. Just open the door."
The man on duty had no choice but to open the door with a worried look on his face. The people outside rushed in instantly and surrounded Liu Haotian.
"Are you Liu Haotian, the new town party secretary? You must solve our problems, otherwise we will never be done with you."
"Liu Haotian, right? If we don't solve our problems, you won't be the town party secretary."
Suddenly, various voices surrounded Liu Haotian, and some people even started to push Liu Haotian, obviously wanting to make things worse.
Liu Haotian is relatively tall, about 1.89 meters tall. When he stands in the crowd, most of him can be seen.
Liu Haotian immediately shouted: "Fellow folks, I am indeed Liu Haotian, the newly appointed secretary of the town committee of Qianhu Town. Since everyone here today wants me to help you solve your problem, can you please send a few representatives to help you solve the problem?"
Tell me first what your problem is?"
Among the crowd, a middle-aged man in his thirties walked out, followed by several men of similar age. This man walked up to Liu Haotian and said: "Secretary Liu, our appeal is very simple. When Tianxing Company requisitioned
They excavated sand from our land and promised to give us 800 yuan in compensation every year. For at least 20 consecutive years. This thing was guaranteed by the town at the beginning, but we have only received one year’s compensation from the beginning to now.
We have not seen a penny of compensation since then, but our land has been expropriated by the Tianxing Group. Many of our families have lost their land and the things they depend on for survival. We are suffering now. We hope that the town will
Give us justice here."
After listening to this, Liu Haotian immediately said: "Do you have any documents?"
After the leader looked at Liu Haotian warily for a few times, he took out a copy and handed it to Liu Haotian and said: "This is the copy. It is written clearly on it that Tianxing Company is an enterprise that came to the town to attract investment.
, the expropriation of our land is euphemistically called for economic construction, but in fact it is digging sand. It is guaranteed by the town. But now, more than eight years have passed, but we have only received one economic compensation. Secretary Liu, is it possible that our
Is it too much to ask for?"
Liu Haotian immediately asked: "When you signed this contract, did any of the current leaders in the town know about it?"
"Mayor Liang knew that he had tried his best to promote this incident." Someone in the crowd immediately said.
Liu Haotian turned to look at Liang Youde and asked: "Mayor Liang, does the problem reported by the masses exist?"
"It's true." Liang Youde nodded.
Liu Haotian then asked: "Then should Tianxing Company pay the common people?"
"Should?" Liang Youde did not evade.
"Then why has this matter not been resolved for so many years?" Liu Haotian asked bluntly.
"Secretary Liu, it's complicated to say this reason. There are two very practical issues that need to be carefully considered. First, although Tianxing Company has made a promise and our town has also provided a guarantee, now Tianxing Company
There is no money in the account, so there is no way to pay this compensation.
Second, the taxes paid by Tianxing Company every year account for more than half of our fiscal revenue in Qianhu Town. We cannot push Tianxing Company too hard, otherwise, our fiscal revenue will be in crisis."
After listening, Liu Haotian had a solemn expression. He could tell that Liang Youde was obviously trying to pass the buck. He was blaming Tianxing Company for everything, but kept silent and did not mention his own responsibility.
Suddenly, Liu Haotian felt a chill in his heart. He suddenly realized that the timing of these people's arrival today was a bit off. Why did they come during this meeting? The timing was too good, right? Could there be someone behind the scenes?
Control this matter?
The more he thought about it, the more Liu Haotian felt a chill running down his spine. If his guess was true, who was behind the scenes? What was the purpose of the bet?
At this time, the people around him were already a little impatient and surrounded Liu Haotian again, and some people began to push Liu Haotian.
Liu Haotian glanced at the crowd coldly and said loudly: "Fellow folks, I have a question for you right now. Do you want me to help you solve your problem?"
Everyone responded one after another.
Liu Haotian said: "Since you want me to help you solve your problem, you have to give me some time, right? Since you have been waiting for more than eight years, can't you give me some time to understand the specific situation? Always
I can't just believe everything you say, right? I have to verify it with all parties before I can solve it for you, right? Even if I want to solve the problem, I need to first understand the financial situation of the town and consider ways to help you solve the problem, right?"
After Liu Haotian finished speaking, the scene fell silent for a while. The man at the head nodded and said: "What you said makes sense this time. I don't know how you plan to verify it? How to solve it?"
Liu Haotian said: "Give me half an hour, I want to hold an on-site office meeting here. I need to know the opinions and views of other leadership team members in the town on this matter, and I also need to know the financial status of the town. I can
I promise everyone present that today, I will definitely give you a relatively satisfactory answer, otherwise, I will never go back and let you surround me. Are you satisfied with what I say?"
Liu Haotian had already said what he said, so naturally everyone could not say anything more. Everyone could see that the newly appointed secretary of the town committee was different from the people who had deceived them before. Those people in the past knew how to deceive them.
He promised that the purpose was simple, to send them away as soon as possible, but the town party secretary in front of him did not avoid their questions, and did not even mean to go back in a hurry, which made the people at the scene feel a little at ease.
Later, Liu Haotian made a direct phone call to Zhao Yongjun, director of the Party and Government Office: "Director Zhao, please immediately notify the members of the leadership team who are currently staying in the agency building to come downstairs within five minutes to attend the on-site office meeting. If anyone comes within five minutes,
If he doesn't come down, I will ask the people to go up and ask him to come down."
Zhao Yongjun's face suddenly darkened. Liu Haotian's move was quite cruel. If it were normal, and the situation in front of him was so serious, who would want to participate in something that he had no responsibility for? But now, Liu Haotian said that the people should go and invite them, and this move would be enough.
Jean had to be a little more scrupulous. It would be a trivial matter to be embarrassed at that time. If he got beaten up, he would be a little innocent.
Therefore, this time, Zhao Yongjun conveyed Liu Haotian's intention immediately.
Very quickly, within five minutes, all the members were present.
Liu Haotian glanced at everyone and said: "Everyone, I believe you have also seen that we, the people of Qianhu Town, are besieging the city with soldiers and we are trapped in a heavy siege. Therefore, we must solve this problem as soon as possible. Who has a way to solve this matter?"
Everyone was silent.
After waiting for a while, when no one spoke, Liu Haotian snorted coldly: "Since none of you have any ideas, don't blame me, Qiankun, for being arbitrary.
I have two ways. The first way is very simple. Since Mayor Liang admits that when the land compensation was paid out, it was because the Qianhu Town Committee and Town Secretary once helped Tianxing Company to provide guarantee. Now Tianxing Company cannot pay it.
Money, then this money should be paid by our Qianhu Town Mayor, Deputy Mayor Meng, you are in charge of the Finance Office, how much money does our town manager still have in his account now?"
"Only 180,000." Deputy Mayor Meng Qingze responded.
"So few?" Liu Haotian's face darkened at that time.
"This is not a small amount. This 180,000 yuan is what Mayor Liang just ran down from the county a few days ago. If it is normal, the town's financial account will not exceed 50,000 yuan."
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense. When many people looked at Liu Haotian and the others, they clenched their fists.
The people around were very angry because Meng Qingze's words were equivalent to blocking the possibility of the town paying money to fill this hole.
Liu Haotian clasped his fists at everyone and said: "Fellow fellows, please be patient. The situation is very clear now. Since the Qianhu Town government cannot come up with this money, this money is originally owed to you by Tianxing Company."
Yes, this money should have been collected by Tianxing Company, so now, these people in the town and I accompany everyone to go to Tianxing Company to collect the debt.
It is only natural that debts must be repaid, and it is also natural that whoever owes the debt must repay it. Our Qianhu Town *** must not be taken advantage of!"
Just as Liu Haotian said this, he was interrupted by Deputy Mayor Meng Qingze: "Secretary Liu, you may not know much about the situation in our Qianhu Town."
Liu Haotian looked at Meng Qingze with a playful look and said, "Oh, Deputy Mayor Meng, please tell me, are there any situations that I don't understand?"
Meng Qingze is about forty-six or seventeen years old this year. He has a slim figure and wears black casual clothes. He looks very energetic. When he speaks, his tone is not hasty or slow, giving people a sense of confidence.
Meng Qingze said with a smile: "Secretary Liu, it's like this. In order to expand production capacity, Tianxing Company has invested five to six billion in recent years. They have invested almost all their funds in production and transportation. Therefore, their company
We won't be able to come up with the money to pay this amount in a short period of time. If we press the debt too hard, it will affect their company's normal production.
Another very important point is that at least half of our Qianhu Town’s fiscal revenue is supported by taxes paid by Tianxing Company. Therefore, once it affects the survival of Tianxing Company, it will inevitably affect the taxes paid by Tianxing Company.
This will affect the fiscal revenue of our entire Qianhu Town, and may even cause us to be unable to pay wages. If this happens, the consequences and responsibilities may be very serious."
Liu Haotian listened very carefully, then stared at Meng Qingze and said: "Deputy Mayor Meng, I heard you say this. I just said that I would take everyone to Tianxing Company to collect debts. It was wrong."
Meng Qingze nodded unceremoniously.
The corners of Liu Haotian's mouth curled up slightly, and he stared at Meng Qingze coldly and said, "Comrade Meng Qingze, let me ask you a few questions now. First, are you, Meng Qingze, a cadre of our Qianhu Town?"
"of course."
"Since you are a cadre of Qianhu Town, shouldn't you do something practical for the people?"
Meng Qingze hesitated for a moment, and after seeing the lustful looks in the eyes of the people around him, he finally nodded: "Yes."
Liu Haotian finally asked: "Since you are a cadre of Qianhu Town, you should do something practical for the people, but why did you speak for Tianxing Company just now?"
Only then did Meng Qingze realize that Liu Haotian was waiting for him here, and he was not a good person. He immediately counterattacked: "Secretary Liu, I can't afford to have such a big hat on you. The purpose of what I just said is very simple.
, I just want to let you know the current status of our Qianhu Town and Tianxing Company. How can we talk about speaking for Tianxing Company? Secretary Liu, you must be kind! Otherwise, you will get more help if you are right, and less if you are unjust."
Liu Haotian smiled slightly: "If you are successful, you will have a lot of help, and if you are wrong, you will have little help. This is unquestionable, but it is not appropriate for you to use it here. Let me ask you the last sentence now, what Tianxing Company owes the people
Should I pay back the money?"
"I should pay it back, but..."
This time, Meng Qingze's words were interrupted by Liu Haotian: "Okay, Deputy Mayor Meng, since you also think that Tianxing Company should pay back the money from Qianhu Town, then I would like to ask, do you dare to lead the way and take everyone with you?"
Go to Tianxing Company to claim the debt? If you don't dare, you can go back to the agency building now."
Meng Qingze was directly forced into a corner by Liu Haotian. If he said he did not dare, then he would have been completely humiliated in front of so many people and members of the leadership team present today.
But if he really takes the lead, I'm afraid it won't be easy for Tianxing Company to explain.
However, Meng Qingze's mind was spinning very quickly. After thinking for a moment, he sneered and said: "Secretary Liu, it will not be a problem for me to lead the way. However, I am worried that if I take the people present, I may not be able to get from Tianxing."
The company wants money, but I don’t know how you will explain it to the people at the scene. After all, you have given everyone hope, so you can’t let everyone go in vain, right? What’s the difference between doing that and deceiving everyone?”
In a few words, Meng Qingze did not hesitate to drag Liu Haotian into the water and pushed him to the opposite side of everyone present.
This gave everyone a wrong understanding. If everyone went to Tianxing Company and couldn't get money, then Liu Haotian should shoulder this responsibility.
This is a very clever way of guiding thoughts and confusing people's vision.
Many people at the scene immediately turned their attention to Liu Haotian.
Liu Haotian raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised. He did not expect that Meng Qingze's counterattack would be so sharp and profound.
However, Liu Haotian was not a person who was afraid of getting into trouble, and he said with sonorous words: "Today I am going to take these members of the leadership team in our town to Tianxing Company to help the people collect their debts. Tianxing Company has to pay it whether it pays or not!
The hard-earned money earned from the land that the people rely on for survival cannot be denied! Meng Qingze, lead the way!"
Hearing what Liu Haotian said, the people at the scene suddenly became more energetic, and their eyes looked at Liu Haotian with a hint of heat.
Among the town party committee members, Song Wudi, secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, looked at Liu Haotian with a hint of admiration.
