After returning to the office, Ma Xiaoyao leaned on the back of his chair and reached out to gently rub his swollen temples.
There have been too many things to worry about recently, which made Ma Xiaoyao's head feel a little swollen.
"Leader." Secretary Wang Xiaolong gently placed a cup of hot tea on the table: "Drink some tea to moisten your throat."
Ma Xiaoyao reached out to pick up the tea cup, blew the hot air from the cup, then put it to his mouth and took a sip. The tea was very mellow and tasted very good, which relieved Ma Xiaoyao's depressed mood.
"Leader, last night the county magistrate Li Ming hosted more than a dozen banquets at the hotel. Basically all the cadres at the department level and above in the county attended the banquet... I heard that a total of more than 20,000 yuan was spent last night." Wang Xiaolong said.
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows: "How much did it cost?"
"I heard it was more than 20,000." Wang Xiaolong repeated.
Ma Xiaoyao put down his tea cup and looked up at Wang Xiaolong: "Is the news accurate?"
"Many people in the county government are discussing this matter now. I asked several people, and they all said it cost more than 20,000 yuan." Wang Xiaolong said.
"Did Li Ming pay for it himself?" Ma Xiaoyao asked next.
Wang Xiaolong shook his head: "No, when we were settling the accounts after dinner, the county magistrate Li Ming signed the bill, and then the hotel staff took the bill to the Finance Bureau to ask for the money."
"Hmph!" Ma Xiaoyao snorted softly: "This Li Ming is really capable. On the first day he took office, he spent more than 20,000 yuan on a grand banquet, and it was paid for by the county..."
Having said this, Ma Xiaoyao paused for a moment, and then said to Wang Xiaolong: "Go and investigate to see if this matter is true."
"Yes, I'll go investigate right away." Wang Xiaolong nodded, turned and left the office.
An hour later, Wang Xiaolong came back.
"How's the investigation going?" Ma Xiaoyao took out a cigarette, lit it and took a puff.
"It's true. County Magistrate Li Ming spent more than 20,000 yuan on a treat last night. Li Ming didn't pay at that time, but signed directly. This is the bill from that hotel." Wang Xiaolong handed over a bill.
Gave it to Ma Xiaoyao.
"Oh?" Ma Xiaoyao took the bill and looked at it: "How did you get this bill?"
"It's a coincidence that the manager of that hotel is a friend of mine. I came forward to ask him for help, and he gave me this bill." Wang Xiaolong explained.
"Not bad, not bad, good job." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Put this bill in an envelope and send it to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection."
Wang Xiaolong was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I understand..." At this point, Wang Xiaolong hesitated: "Boss, why don't you also expose it on the Internet? In this way, the matter will become a big deal, and the reputation of County Magistrate Li Ming will be
It's going to stink." On his first day after taking office, a county magistrate used public funds to entertain a large number of cadres, spending more than 20,000 yuan in one night. Once this matter was exposed, it would definitely be enough for Li Ming to drink a pot.
Ma Xiaoyao thought for a while: "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you... Remember, be careful and don't get discovered." Ma Xiaoyao didn't want to expose himself, he just wanted to hide behind his back and watch the show.
Because Ma Xiaoyao knew very well that this incident would not be able to bring down Li Ming, and at most, Li Ming would be punished.
"I understand." Wang Xiaolong nodded, took the bill and left the office.
"Huh..." Ma Xiaoyao breathed out, the corners of his mouth raised high, and his depressed mood was relieved: "Li Ming, aren't you a harp? Okay, I will teach you a lesson this time to see if you can still do it.
show off!"
…
Wang Xiaolong was very efficient. In the afternoon of the same day, he sent the bill to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, and then found an Internet cafe to expose Li Ming's extravagance and waste of food and drink with public funds. After posting on several large forums, Wang Xiaolong
Secretly left the Internet cafe.
As the saying goes, come quietly and go quietly. Before going to the Internet cafe, Wang Xiaolong dressed up specially. He wore long clothes, a peaked cap, and sunglasses on his face. Wang Xiaolong was very confident in this look and would never be fooled.
People recognize it.
…
County Sheriff's Office.
Li Ming was sitting on a chair, holding a tea cup in his left hand and a cigarette in his right hand, humming an unknown ditty in his mouth. He looked very comfortable.
"Buzz buzz..."
The cell phone placed on the table suddenly vibrated without warning.
"Who is so blind and bothering me at this time!" Li Ming put down the tea cup, reached for his phone, glanced at the screen, and found that it was his father calling. Li Ming hurriedly sat up straight and reached out to answer the phone: "Hello
……dad……"
"You idiot, I'm really going to be pissed off by you!" Li Yongchang's furious roar came from the phone.
The smile on Li Ming's face suddenly solidified: "Dad... you... why are you so angry... what happened?"
"Let me ask you, did you have a big banquet the night before yesterday and entertain many cadres to eat and drink?" Li Yongchang asked.
"Ah...that's what happened..." Li Ming nodded.
"How much did we spend that night?" Li Yongchang then asked.
"Uh... this... it doesn't cost much..." Li Ming said hesitantly.
"How much did it cost?" Li Yongchang's voice suddenly rose.
Li Ming's face twitched a few times: "It cost...it cost...more than 20,000 yuan..."
"You guys are really good at eating. One meal actually cost more than 20,000 yuan!" Li Yongchang said angrily.
"No... the food is not that expensive... mainly because the wine is more expensive..." Li Ming explained.
"Did you settle the bill in the end?" Li Yongchang asked after taking a deep breath.
"Yes... I settled the bill..." Li Ming nodded.
"Did you pay for it personally?" Li Yongchang then asked.
"Uh... this... this... I... that..." Li Ming spoke hesitantly.
"Don't worry about this or that, is it your own money?" Li Yongchang shouted softly.
Li Ming grinned: "It's not the money I spent...it's the money the county spent..."
"Asshole!" Li Yongchang became anxious when he heard this and yelled: "You are such an asshole! Do you have any brains at all? On the first day he took office, he used public funds to entertain his subordinates to eat and drink. Not only did he not pay attention to the impact, but he also acted wantonly
Extravagance and waste, spending more than 20,000 yuan on one meal... You are really going to make me mad! How could I have such a stupid son like you!"
"Dad...it's just a meal, why are you so angry..." Li Ming said.
"It's so easy for you to say that. Do you know that someone reported to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection that you used public funds to eat and drink, spending more than 20,000 yuan on a meal. The Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection will soon set up an investigation team to go to Dongcheng County to investigate you.
!" Li Yongchang said bitterly: "That's not all. I don't know who posted this matter on the Internet. Now many people on the Internet are calling for a thorough investigation of this matter... Li Ming, you really don't let me worry.
!”
Li Ming was dumbfounded. He didn't expect the matter to be such a big deal: "Dad, I... I just wanted to connect with my subordinates, so I invited them to dinner..."
"There are many ways to communicate with each other, but you chose the stupidest method. What's even more stupid is that you even used public funds to entertain those people. Now that's fine, the matter has been exposed. You can wait to be dismissed!"
Li Yongchang Qi Dao.
Li Ming's expression changed: "Being dismissed? It's not that serious, right?"
"What do you think? You spent more than 20,000 yuan on one meal. The impact is really bad. Just now, Liu Yuncai, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, personally called me to ask about this matter. Liu Yuncai has never wanted to see you, and now he is
If you get the handle, he will definitely punish you severely! According to Liu Yuncai's temper, it's not unusual to dismiss you from your post!" Li Yongchang snorted.
"Ah... what should I do? Dad... I... I really didn't mean it. I didn't expect it to be so big. Dad, please help me. I really know I was wrong... I will never dare to do it again.
It's..." When he heard that he was going to be dismissed, Li Ming panicked.
"You... you really don't let me worry..." Li Yongchang sighed: "Li Ming, you are already a big boss, why don't you use your brain when doing things? Forget it, I will help you this time.
But please remember this, this is the last time, if you continue to cause trouble without thinking, I will never care about you!"
"Yes, yes...I know, I will definitely use my brain more in the future, and I will definitely not get into trouble again!" Li Ming nodded hurriedly.
"Listen, there is only one way now, which is to pay for the meal with your own money, and then hold a press conference again and say that it was a misunderstanding. It is true that you are treating guests, but it is absolutely not using your own money.
Use public funds." Li Yongchang said his own method: "Think everything is a misunderstanding, so that you can keep your position as county magistrate."
"This... this... more than 20,000 yuan... do you really want me to pay for it myself?" Li Ming said with a grin.
"Up to now, you still care about money!" Li Yongchang said with hatred: "I ask you, is 20,000 yuan more important, or is the position of county magistrate more important!"
"I...I..." Li Ming opened his mouth: "The key is that I don't have so much money..."
"No money? Where is your usual salary?" Li Yongchang asked.
"It's all... spent..." Li Ming said: "I have at most a few thousand dollars in my hand now..." Li Ming usually spends money lavishly and can't save much money at all.
"You... forget it, I'll call you." Li Yongchang sighed helplessly: "I'll transfer money to your bank card now, you hurry up and settle the matter!" After saying that, Li Yongchang hung up.
Cut off the phone.
Li Ming put down his phone and said with great distress: "Damn it, who reported me? Who posted the incident online, causing me to lose more than 20,000 yuan... Don't let me find out who did it.
Otherwise I will never let you go!!!"
Ten minutes later, a text message was sent to Li Ming's mobile phone. The text message was from the bank, indicating that 20,000 yuan had just been transferred to Li Ming's bank card. Li Ming exhaled, stood up and left the office.
