Ma Xiaoyao's cold eyes flashed across everyone's face: "I understand everyone's mood. After all, it is not easy to do business. Now because of the decline in business due to road construction, you will definitely feel uncomfortable. I understand this very well...
However, I have no choice. The road must be built. I have spent a lot of effort to build the road. The reason why I built the road is to make it easier for the people of Dongcheng County to travel. You all know the roads in Dongcheng County.
The damage is serious and it has reached the point where it must be rebuilt..."
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma, you are right to build the road, but our business has been seriously affected. Should you give us an explanation?" asked a man with a big belly.
Ma Xiaoyao turned to look at the man with a big belly: "What do you want to say?"
"It's very simple, you should compensate us for our losses." The man with a big belly said.
"Yes, compensate for our losses." Others also shouted.
Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched: "Your request is a bit unreasonable. Road construction is a good thing that benefits the people. You should be more considerate. You only need to wait a few months. When the road is repaired, your business will naturally increase."
The word was restored.”
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma, are you talking so easily? Do you want us to drink from the northwest wind within a few months of road construction?" The man with a big belly snorted.
"That's right, we are running a small business and can't last more than a few months." Others shouted.
"Shut up, everyone!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted softly: "Let me say it one last time, this road construction is a good thing that benefits the people. I hope you understand and cooperate. It only takes a few months.
After a few months, your business will be back to normal... Don't you think you can even wait a few more months? Just treat these few months as a holiday and relax a little. When the road is repaired, your business will resume.
, you can continue to make money.”
"We can't wait more than a few months!" the man with a big belly shouted loudly.
"You have to wait if you can't wait!" Ma Xiaoyao stood up and said coldly: "If you want the government to compensate you, there is no way. Okay, I am very busy and have no time to chat with you. You all go back." After that,
, Ma Xiaoyao raised his feet and left the conference room.
As soon as Ma Xiaoyao left, the owners of these restaurants and shopping malls immediately became furious and clamored for an explanation from the county government, otherwise they would not give up.
Just when everyone was getting angry, a group of security guards came in and drove all the restaurant and shopping mall owners out of the county government without explanation. The group gathered at the gate of the county government and refused to leave. Finally, the guard reported directly to the police.
Police, a few minutes later, dozens of police officers arrived. After briefly understanding the situation, the police took everyone back to the Public Security Bureau. After educating them, they released the troublemakers.
After coming out of the Public Security Bureau, the owners of these restaurants and shopping malls felt very angry. They all got together to discuss it, and finally decided to go to the city to file a complaint. They must ask for an explanation.
After having a simple meal, we chartered a bus and went to the city.
…
Wang Xiaolong quickly walked into the office and said to Ma Xiaoyao, who was lowering his head to approve documents: "Boss, those restaurant and shopping mall owners chartered a bus to go to the city. I heard they are going to the city to file a complaint..."
"Oh, I understand." Ma Xiaoyao said without raising his head.
Wang Xiaolong was stunned: "Boss... you... aren't you anxious at all?"
Ma Xiaoyao put down the document, reached out to pick up the tea cup, and said with a smile: "Why should I be anxious?" As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao blew the hot air from the cup and then took a sip of tea.
"No... those people went to the city to complain... This will definitely have an impact on you..." Wang Xiaolong said anxiously.
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything wrong, the city leaders won't punish me." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand.
"But..." Wang Xiaolong still wanted to say something.
"Xiao Wang, please remember one thing. Nothing is perfect in this world. There are gains and losses. It is a good thing for me to build roads, but it will inevitably affect the business of restaurants and shopping malls on the roadside... Which city or county would it be?
, there is no way to avoid this phenomenon. I have made it very clear to the owners of restaurants and shopping malls, asking them to understand my painstaking efforts. After waiting for a few months, when the road is repaired, their business will naturally recover. Could it be that
Can't they even wait a few months? Isn't this too selfish? I can't stop building roads just to take into account their feelings, right? From the day I stepped into the officialdom, I was prepared to offend
In terms of people preparation, my philosophy of being an official is very simple. It is just one sentence: serve the people wholeheartedly, do practical things, and do my best to help the people improve their lives and make them live a richer life!" Ma Xiaoyao sighed: "I
Coming from an ordinary working-class family, I know deeply that the lives of ordinary people are not easy and very hard. I just want to make those ordinary people live a better life. Is this wrong?"
Wang Xiaolong shook his head: "Leader, you are right, you are doing the right thing, but... you should also think more about yourself. For example, this time for road construction, you can give appropriate compensation to those restaurant and shopping mall owners, as long as
Once they receive compensation, they will no longer cause trouble and will not go to the city to complain..."
"I still said what I said. I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I compensate them? Do you think I'm easy to bully?" Ma Xiaoyao snorted.
"No...leader, people sometimes have to learn to compromise..." Wang Xiaolong said. Logically speaking, as a young secretary, he shouldn't say these things, but Wang Xiaolong really cares about Ma Xiaoyao, so he said these somewhat sensitive things.
words.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "You are right, people do have to learn to compromise sometimes, but they also have to differentiate between things. Some things can be compromised, and some things must not be compromised... For example, this time, I will never compromise.
"
"Leader..." Wang Xiaolong wanted to persuade him again.
"Okay, stop talking. I have to review and approve the documents. If you have nothing else to do, go out." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand impatiently.
Seeing Ma Xiaoyao's impatient look, Wang Xiaolong had no choice but to swallow his words, then turned and left the office.
After Wang Xiaolong left, Ma Xiaoyao threw the documents on the table, then leaned on the back of the chair, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his temples: "Oh...how come people nowadays have become so selfish...I just want to
Why is it so difficult to do something practical? Why? Who can tell me the reason?"
…
I heard that the owners of those restaurants and shopping malls went to the city to file a complaint, which made Li Ming extremely happy. He wished that the owners of those restaurants and shopping malls would make the matter bigger. The bigger the trouble, the better. It would be better to let Ma Xiaoyao lose his reputation.
.
Li Ming thought about it for a moment, then picked up his cell phone and called his father.
"What do you want from me?" Li Yongchang asked.
"Dad, let me discuss something with you... Hasn't Ma Xiaoyao been building roads recently? As a result, the business of some restaurants and shopping malls close to the roadside has dropped sharply. The owners of those restaurants and shopping malls have gone to the county government to ask for an explanation.
, but in the end he was driven out by Ma Xiaoyao, and finally asked the police to arrest the owners of those restaurants and shopping malls... Later, he gave those people a severe warning and then released them. After that, those people felt that
We were dissatisfied, so we went to the city to file a complaint together... Dad, can you come forward to take charge of this matter and use this matter to severely punish Ma Xiaoyao?" Li Ming said.
"This matter... okay, I will pay attention to it." Li Yongchang nodded.
"Then please leave it to dad." Li Ming thanked him.
"Is there anything else?" Li Yongchang asked.
"No more... no more..." Li Ming shook his head.
"Then I hang up the phone... By the way, you are now the county magistrate. You should pay attention to your image, use your brain more and do some practical things, so that I can look good on my face." After a few words of warning, Li
Yongchang hung up the phone.
Li Ming didn't take Li Yongchang's advice to heart at all. What he cared about most now was rectifying Ma Xiaoyao. As for other things, Li Ming really didn't have much interest.
…
Two days later.
Ma Xiaoyao received a call from Mayor Li Yongchang.
"Mayor Li, do you have anything to do with me?" Ma Xiaoyao looked very surprised. He did not expect that Li Yongchang would call him personally.
"Nonsense, if nothing happens, will I call you?" Li Yongchang snorted.
Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "I wonder what Mayor Li wants from me?"
"Yesterday, a group of people came to the city government to file a complaint. They are all from Dongcheng County, and they are suing you." Li Yongchang said, "They are suing you for using your power to persecute their interests..."
"Mayor Li, the thing is like this..." Ma Xiaoyao wanted to explain, but Li Yongchang didn't give him this chance at all.
"You don't need to explain, I have already investigated the matter clearly." Li Yongchang said: "Due to road construction, traffic congestion in Dongcheng County has caused some restaurant and shopping mall owners to suffer certain losses... Speaking of which, this
It is indeed your responsibility. It was your poor thinking at the beginning that caused the extreme dissatisfaction of the restaurant and shopping mall owners... Also, they went to the county government to ask for an explanation from you. Not only did you have a tough attitude, but you also asked the security guards to drive them all away.
They came out, and then asked the police to arrest them all... Did you have any impact on passing by doing this?"
Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched: "Mayor Li, I may not have considered it well, but this road construction is a good thing that benefits the people... It has been praised by many people in the county..."
"Road construction is indeed a good thing that benefits the people, but in the process of road construction, the interests of some people will be harmed. You must communicate with them in time to compensate for their losses." Li Yongchang said.
"Compensation for losses?" Ma Xiaoyao was unhappy when he heard this: "Mayor Li, I don't quite agree with your point of view. I think..."
