As Ling Cang said, today is really an open day. It’s just an open day in name only. When we arrived in front of the town government, the first thing we saw was swarms of police and security guards. Not a single one came. The people who had a heart-to-heart talk with the mayor.
Speaking of which, this is nothing new. There are too many superficial things nowadays. Is the Soong Ching Ling Foundation related to Soong Ching Ling? Does the Mao Dun Literary Award reward literature? Does the Zou Taofen Journalism Award have anything to do with journalism? I hope Can the project give people hope? Does the Youth Foundation have anything to do with young people? Does the Red Cross have something to do with the Red Cross? The only thing that can be considered worthy of the name is the Golden Rooster Award. It really has something to do with "chicken".
Opposite the town hall is a large construction site. A skyscraper is being built in full swing.
Ling Cang felt very strange. The noise from this construction site was very loud, which would seriously affect the work of the town government. But no one could be seen to interfere. Moreover, it seemed inappropriate to build such a tall building opposite the town government. I don’t know. Who has such courage?
After asking a random passerby, Ling Cang found out that this was the new town government office building.
Ling Cang has a headache with science subjects, so he has never systematically studied civil engineering. However, based on the little knowledge he has, he can still estimate that the scale of this building is quite large. It can accommodate all the teachers and students of Minghai No. 1 Middle School. How many staff can a town government of about 2,000 people have? It is more luxurious than an aristocratic school to enjoy such a building.
Looking back at the policemen and security guards on duty, Ling Cang smiled. Instead of stepping forward, he went around to the back and climbed over a low wall. Ling Cang followed the drainage pipe and climbed to the top floor in a few clicks.
Ling Cang had done similar things at the Beijing Police Station. He had some experience. He quickly climbed into the corridor and found the mayor's office.
Knocking on the door, Ling Cang opened the door and walked in. He found a short, fat man in his fifties sitting behind the desk.
The short fat man was stunned for a moment when he saw Ling Cang. Then he suddenly stood up and asked, "Who are you?"
Ling Cang didn't answer. Instead, he closed the office door and asked, "Are you Zhu Changyou?"
"I am." Zhu Changyou looked around and felt that Ling Cang was just an ordinary student. So he relaxed a little: "Who are you? Who allowed you to come in? What are you doing here?"
"Isn't today a reception day? I want to talk to the mayor."
"What's the reception day? What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhu Changyou snorted heavily: "Get out of here right away. Otherwise, I'll ask the police to arrest you."
"The police are arresting me. I'm not afraid..." Ling Cang said while putting away his glasses: "But I will tell reporters when I go back. The reception in Lin Lan Town is just what it looks like."
"Go. Go tell the reporters." Zhu Changyou waved his hand impatiently. Then he picked up the phone: "I want the police to come in..."
"A few days ago, the country's largest official newspaper published news that all local administrative regions above the town level have set up reception days for chief executive officers." Ling Cang stared at Zhu Changyou and said word by word: "It seems. You don’t take this report seriously, and you don’t pay attention to the country’s mouthpiece.”
This sentence was somewhat intimidating. Zhu Changyou slowly put down the phone and asked suspiciously: "Who are you?"
"I am..." Ling Cang replied slowly in a long voice: "The project manager of Century Green Farmers."
"You. Project manager."
"Yes." Ling Cang nodded: "I will be directly responsible to Liu Min'an."
"You know Liu Min'an."
Ling Cang made nonsense: "I already knew him when he was the director of the CEO's office of Chenyang International."
"So you also know about Chenyang International."
"I don't know much about him, but I have some dealings with Situ Dao, the CEO of this company."
"I have heard of the name Chenyang International in this remote corner..." Hehe smiled. Zhu Changyou said with a half-smile, "I really don't know why Liu Min'an changed jobs."
"People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places." After a pause, Ling Cang said implicitly and accusingly: "Listen to your words, mayor. You praise Chenyang International. You seem to look down on us Century Green Farmers. "
"Where. Where." Zhu Changyou waved his hand: "What I actually mean is that I have heard of Chenyang International and Century Green Farmers for a long time, but I only got in touch with them because of this land acquisition."
"I'm glad you said that. I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future."
"I hope so too." Zhu Changyou subconsciously wanted to laugh. How could Ling Cang hold an executive position in a large company like Century Green Farm at such a young age? But he hadn't said anything yet. I found something strange. I don’t know when. Ling Cang took on a powerful aura. It was like a king coming. There was no doubt about it.
Suddenly, Zhu Changyou remembered that Century Green Farm was a company with an extremely rich background. Bao Buqi had a young second-generation official in the management. Maybe Ling Cang himself had no ability, but the company needed to rely on the ability of his family. .
What's more important is that Ling Cang knows the situation of Century Green Farmers well. Zhu Changyou has been dealing with this company for some time and doesn't know that much.
No matter how Zhu Changyou looked at it, he felt that his conjecture was correct. However, there was still one doubtful point. That was that the clothes of Ling Cang, a second-generation official, were too shabby.
In any case, Zhu Changyou was a little more polite towards Ling Cang: "In this case, you can just inform me before you come. Why bother..."
"I don't want to waste your precious time." Ling Cang interrupted Zhu Changyou: "Since it is the reception day, then I will follow the normal procedures and let you receive it."
Zhu Changyou stared at Ling Cang and asked, "How did you get in?"
"I spoke to the security guards below and they let me in."
"Oh." Zhu Changyou just responded without saying anything. But Ling Cang could tell that someone was going to be unlucky soon.
"I'm coming today..."
"By the way..." Zhu Changyou didn't wait for Ling Cang to finish his words. He suddenly interrupted: "I don't know what you call me yet."
Ling Cang chuckled: "Tong Haizhou."
"Oh. I don't know where you are from."
"I'm from Minghai. Now working in the capital."
Next, Zhu Changyou asked a lot of questions from the side and told all about Ling Cang's personal situation.
Zhu Changyou thought he was smart, but he didn't know that all these situations were told by Ling Cang according to Tong Haizhou. Ling Cang even said that his father's name was Tong Zhengrong and he had a younger brother named Tong Haifeng. The only difference was that It was age. Ling Cang only said how many years older he was. He didn't dare to lean on Tong Haizhou.
The actual age difference between Ling Cang and Tong Haizhou is too big. Because of this, Tong Tong failed to appear in the family situation fabricated by Ling Cang.
"I have been to Minghai many times. Oh my, this city is so beautiful. When I am about to retire, I want to find a place to retire. The first thing I will consider is Minghai..." Zhu Changyou pretended to be old at first sight and greeted Lingcang politely. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally remembered and asked: "By the way, Mr. Tong, what do you want to do here this time?"
"It's the land acquisition issue of Century Green Farmers." After a pause, Ling Cang said word by word: "Why is the compensation price we paid two or three times different from what the farmers actually got."
"There is such a thing." Zhu Changyou suddenly stood up and looked at Ling Cang stupidly. After a long time, he sat back again and said, "Tell me in detail. What exactly is going on." When Ling Cang gave the general outline, The situation was explained once. Zhu Changyou slammed the table: "This is outrageous. Needless to say, the compensation money must have been withheld by relevant departments and personnel."
"I think so."
"Hey, Brother Tong, since you have already grasped this situation, why are you telling me now?"
Century Green Farmers have always been anxious to solve the problem, but they have been unable to get in. They can neither see the farmers nor contact the local administrative leaders. Liu Minan told Ling Cang that Mayor Zhu went abroad for inspection a few days ago. He He could only deal with the leaders of various relevant departments. In desperation, he had no choice but to ask the city leaders to come forward to coordinate. But the county officials were not as good as the current ones. The city leaders were helpless about the local situation. No one could get past Mayor Zhu. Directly intervene in land acquisition matters.
Ling Cang was too lazy to tell Mayor Zhu. Century Green Farmers had long been confused between various departments and leaders. He simply asked: "How do you plan to deal with it?"
"I will immediately ask people to conduct a strict investigation to see where the money went. If there is corruption, there will be severe punishment." At this point, Mayor Zhu's tone suddenly softened: "However, I think there may be some misunderstandings. "
"how to say."
"You work in the capital. You may not know that we have financial difficulties here. Our superiors do not allocate funds. The local economic development is lagging behind. We have owed a lot of debt over the years. I am not afraid of your jokes. Many teachers have not had expenses for half a year... " He smiled bitterly. Zhu Changyou then added: "It seems that part of this land acquisition compensation has been diverted to the office funds of various departments."
"Teachers are owed wages. So are civil servants owed wages?"
"Is this..." Zhu Changyou smiled sheepishly but did not answer.
"Also, this money is for farmers. Then it should be distributed to farmers in full. Why should it be misappropriated?"
"Brother, what I said is one-sided." After coughing twice, Zhu Changyou told Ling Cang in detail: "A few years ago, in order to solve the problems of rural areas and farmers, the country canceled agricultural taxes. As a result, farmers' The pressure has been reduced, but our financial income has been reduced. However, if we cannot work efficiently due to funding issues, then the interests of farmers will be harmed in the end. For example, if teachers cannot be paid, the result will only be the children of farmers. Unable to receive education..."
