Ye Shaofeng just noticed a detail. When the waiter called Cao Deliang, he did not call him Director Cao, but Director Li. Why did he call him Director Li? Ye Shaofeng was a little curious.
Ye Shaofeng said: "I haven't washed my hands yet. I'll go to the bathroom to wash my hands." After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the bathroom. When he passed by the waiter An Ge who just served, Ye Shaofeng said to her: "I'll lend you a step." say,"
The waiter knew that this was a big shot and immediately followed Ye Shaofeng to a place where he could avoid the sight of Cao Deliang and the others. Ye Shaofeng asked: "What did you call that person just now?"
"Director Li," the waiter replied naturally.
"Why did you call him Director Li," Ye Shaofeng asked.
"Don't you know yet? He is the director of the Public Security Department of our Province H. You may be able to call him by his first name, but for little people like us, we can only call him Director Li," the waiter said seriously.
"Then do you know the name of Director Li?" Ye Shaofeng asked again.
"Every time I sign for a meal here, I am told that it will be recorded in the account of the Public Security Bureau. The name of the bill signed every time is Li Hu. I know this," the waiter said smugly.
"What? Sign Li Hu's name on the bill," Ye Shaofeng said in surprise.
"What's wrong? Are you investigating the food and drink with public funds?" the waiter said nervously.
"It's okay, it's okay. I just asked casually. Okay, you can go and do your work. By the way, don't let the third person know what I just told you. This is a tip." With that, Ye Shaofeng took out One hundred yuan was given to the waiter as hush money.
The waiter said happily: "Thank you, thank you," and then left in a hurry.
Ye Shaofeng knew what he was doing. Cao Deliang was very playful. When he went out to eat, everyone signed Li Hu's name. Even though it was public funds for food and drink, whoever tipped the restaurant would have to put it on the bill. In this way, when collecting the bills at the end of the year, when you go to the Finance Department of the Public Security Department to get the money, you will have proof. After the Finance Department sees the bill, of course it will not leak it. As the Public Security Department, they have their own A lot of gray area income will be stored in their own small treasury. The existence of the small treasury is a strong backing for these officials to consume public funds. On the surface, they are spending their own money, and It does not constitute public funds for eating and drinking, but in fact, all what they take into their pockets is public funds.
However, this has become an open secret, and everyone knows it, but no one can tell it, let alone a unit as big as the Public Security Department, even in the city below, or even some bureau-level units. County-level units all have their own small treasury. If you don't set up a small treasury these days, you will be incompetent as a leader. Why do some units give out more year-end bonuses during the holidays? Some have less. This mainly depends on how much money they have in their small vaults. Therefore, it is not enough for you to have a small vault. You have to work hard to turn your small vault into a big vault. What will you do if you have a big vault? Things are getting easier.
We have seen that many leaders go out for inspections when they have nothing to do, either to other provinces or go abroad. As long as the leaders go out, their food, clothing, housing and transportation are of high standards. However, the small subsidies issued by the above are not at all It is not enough for these officials to travel and consume. Therefore, the construction of the treasury can play a role in supplementing the finance. The people above do not know how much money is in the treasury, only the top leaders know.
The reason why Cao Deliang has been signing Li Hu's name is actually to spend the money in the treasury of their Public Security Department. The reason why he does not sign his name is because he is afraid that if he falls down in the future, when the people above check it, the first thing is Regarding the treasury check, Cao Deliang can be directly traced from the consumption records in these restaurants. Therefore, when Cao Deliang did not have any momentum, he did not dare to blatantly eat and drink with public funds. In order to avoid being noticed, he came here every time to wait for Ye Shaofeng. All the purchases were signed by Li Hu. It is estimated that in the entire private restaurant, only the proprietress here knows the real name of Cao Deliang. However, even if they knew it, they would not talk nonsense about it, and they would not talk about officialdom matters. They all know very well that as long as this person can bring them profits, it doesn't matter who his signature is, as long as this signature can allow them to get money from the Public Security Bureau, that's enough.
When Ye Shaofeng came out of the bathroom and returned to his seat, he saw Cao Deliang and Chang Miaoke pushing each other. Cao Deliang had an envelope in his hand and wanted to force it on Chang Miaoke. Chang Miaoke would definitely not take it. Pushing off.
When Ye Shaofeng walked over, Cao Deliang restrained himself and quickly took the envelope back to him. Ye Shaofeng looked at Cao Deliang and said with a smile: "Director Cao, what do you mean?"
"It's boring, it's boring. Governor, don't think too much about it. I just think that Mrs. Ye is pregnant. As an old friend of yours, I have to express it."
"Your envelope is quite thick. What's the matter? The Public Security Department has been making a lot of money recently," Ye Shaofeng said.
"No, no, this is all my own money," Cao Deliang said quickly.
"My own money, it seems that Director Cao has made a lot of money recently," Ye Shaofeng said.
"Governor Ye is really good at joking. I don't make any money either. I just do my job. Where can I make money?" Cao Deliang said with a smile.
"Since you haven't made any money, don't spread it out. If you scatter a lot of money, it will inevitably make people suspicious. Okay, please keep the envelope and don't let me see it. Now let's Let's eat," Ye Shaofeng said and started to use chopsticks.
After Ye Shaofeng took the first bite, others started to use their chopsticks to eat. The two bottles of Maotai ordered by Cao Deliang were placed on the table. Ye Shaofeng did not mention drinking, and none of them dared to drink. However, there is no feast without wine, and the leader cannot Drinking with you means that you are still far away from the leader. Cao Deliang stood up and prepared to open Maotai.
Ye Shaofeng said: "What is this for?"
"Governor Ye, today is your first day back in Province H. We happened to bump into each other here, so we will definitely have a drink with you."
"I'm sorry. You know I just came back. I drove for such a long time. I'm so tired. When I drink, I get even more tired. I have to take care of a pregnant woman when I get back. So, thank you for your kindness. We'll skip the drink. Well, we can have tea instead of wine, come on, come on, let me greet you all and thank you for your kindness." As he said that, Ye Shaofeng picked up the tea cup in front of him...
