When Qiao Liang returned to the county, he did not go directly to the county compound, but came to the county bureau.
Director's Office.
Hearing that Qiao Liang was coming, Feng Zhanming smiled and walked to the door to greet him: "What kind of wind is blowing today? Why did it bring this distinguished guest, County Magistrate Qiao?"
"County Magistrate Feng, I came to see you for something." Qiao Liang was worried about the meat processing factory and had no time to greet Feng Zhanming politely.
"What's the matter?" Feng Zhanming was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Come on, County Magistrate Qiao, sit in the room first, and let's talk about it slowly if we have anything to do."
He enthusiastically invited Qiao Liang to sit down in the office. Feng Zhanming personally made a cup of tea for Qiao Liang before sitting down.
"County Magistrate Feng, do you know about the meat processing plant project supported by Jiangdong Commercial Group in Liangbei County?" Qiao Liang asked.
"I've heard that this seems to be a key project in our county, related to the poverty alleviation of people in pastoral areas." Feng Zhanming nodded.
"Well, yes, this project is running into some troubles right now." Qiao Liang told Feng Zhanming about the fact that the construction site was set on fire by a group of masked men.
"Is there such a thing?" Feng Zhanming looked shocked, "This group of people is simply audacious, and they openly sabotage poverty alleviation projects in broad daylight, and their nature is even worse."
"Yes, so I hope that the police station in the jurisdiction will bring this group of people to justice, but they kept emphasizing the difficulties to me, saying that it is difficult to solve the case, and their attitude was extremely perfunctory." Qiao Liang looked ugly, "County Magistrate Feng
, do you think this is irritating?"
"County Magistrate Qiao, calm down. I will severely criticize the person in charge of the police station in the area." Feng Zhanming looked serious and immediately explained, "County Magistrate Qiao, I have also gone to the pastoral area for investigation several times, and I have some understanding of the situation below.
Pastoral police stations do have their difficulties..."
Feng Zhanming said this, paused, observed Qiao Liang's expression, and continued: "County Chief Qiao, you also know the situation in our Liangbei County. It is a vast area and sparsely populated. Most of the population is concentrated in the county seat.
In pastoral areas, in the vast grasslands and Gobi beaches, many places can be said to be deserted. The police force of the police station alone is really stretched. Moreover, our entire police system in Liangbei County has the problem of insufficient funds, let alone
The police station down there. Even our county bureau often encounters the problem of insufficient funds for handling cases. Don’t worry, I personally went to the Finance Bureau to ask for money yesterday. It’s almost the end of the year and our police station has funds to replace winter clothes this year.
We haven't even dialed it yet, do you think our bureau is poor?"
Listening to Feng Zhanming's words, Qiao Liang vaguely felt something was wrong, but he didn't want to think too much about it at the moment. He had just complained to Feng Zhanming first in order to pave the way for making demands later. Now he would listen to Feng Zhanming tell about the difficulties in the bureau.
Qiao Liang did not answer, but said: "County Chief Feng, the police station in the area under your jurisdiction is insufficient. I have an idea. Is it possible to send a few people from the bureau down to set up a temporary police station next to the construction site."
"County Magistrate Qiao, your idea is good, but it's hard for me to make a living without rice." Feng Zhanming smiled bitterly, "The police resources in the bureau are too short, and our case investigators can be said to be divided into two.
There is no extra manpower at all. It is said that if there is a shortage of manpower, we can recruit more auxiliary police officers to solve the problem of insufficient police resources. However, the funds given to us by the county finance are limited, and we cannot even guarantee the full amount of funds for daily case handling, let alone provide
We have enough funds to recruit auxiliary police officers, but as a result, we have only a few auxiliary police officers, and there is no way to solve the problem of insufficient manpower."
"County Magistrate Feng means that this is not okay, right?" Qiao Liang's face looked ugly again. He could tell that this Feng Zhanming had the same attitude as Director Sun of the police station. They were both looking for excuses to refuse.
"County Magistrate Qiao, it's not that I won't help, it's just that the bureau doesn't have extra manpower. I hope Magistrate Qiao understands our difficulties." Feng Zhanming looked helpless and said, "Of course, I also know about this assistance project.
It is important. Our police department has the responsibility to ensure public security throughout the county, let alone escort such key poverty alleviation projects, so it is no problem to send police officers to patrol on a daily basis, but there is no way to permanently station them."
Hearing what Feng Zhanming said, Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment, his face softened, and he looked up at Feng Zhanming, wondering if he had misunderstood the other party just now? Looking at Feng Zhanming's attitude, it didn't seem like he didn't want to help.
At this time, I heard Feng Zhanming say again: "County Chief Qiao, the distance from the county seat to the pastoral area is a bit far. Arranging people to run back and forth like this every day. To be honest, it is a waste of police resources, so the key is to assign responsibility to the police station in the jurisdiction."
, let’s do this, I will personally communicate with the police station and ask them to send police officers to patrol the construction site at several times every day. This is the best and most trouble-free way, what do you think?”
"County Magistrate Feng, is there really no way to set up a temporary police station at the construction site?" Qiao Liang still wanted to fight for it.
"County Magistrate Qiao, this is really difficult." Feng Zhanming smiled bitterly again, "It would be great if the county could give us more funding to solve our problem of insufficient funds and insufficient manpower. Things would be simple."
Listening to Feng Zhanming's words, Qiao Liang curled his lips in confusion. After all, the issue of funding cannot be separated. You Feng Zhanming is the deputy county magistrate after all. You can't get more funds yourself. What can I do?
Seeing that he could not get a satisfactory answer from Feng Zhanming, Qiao Liang stood up in frustration: "County Magistrate Feng, in that case, I'll leave first."
"County Magistrate Qiao, please sit down for a while longer," Feng Zhanming said.
"No, I have to rush back. The assistance project is a major event in the county. Now that something has happened, I need to report it to County Magistrate Shang and have a good communication with him." Qiao Liang thought about it and went to Shang Ke.
In fact, he knew very well that Shang Ke was not good to him, but Qiao Liang had to go to Shang Ke, firstly, to test Shangke's attitude, and secondly, to explain the pros and cons to Shangke and let Shangke know the stakes.
"Well, I won't delay County Magistrate Qiao. Let's find time to have a meal together when we have the opportunity." Feng Zhanming said politely.
Qiao Liang nodded and left Feng Zhanming's office without saying anything else.
When he reached the door, Qiao Liang paused and turned around to remind Feng Zhanming: "County Magistrate Feng, please ask Magistrate Feng to personally make a call to the pastoral area police station and make sure they send police officers to the construction site to patrol several times every day."
trip."
"Don't worry, County Magistrate Qiao, I'll remember it and I'll call you soon." Feng Zhanming smiled and nodded.
Hearing this, Qiao Liang felt a little relieved. Although he could not strive to set up a temporary police station at the construction site, it was better than nothing if he could achieve this result.
As soon as Qiao Liang left, Feng Zhanming turned back to the office and closed the office door.
Taking out his mobile phone, Feng Zhanming made a call. After the call was connected, Feng Zhanming said: "County Magistrate Shang, I have sent Deputy County Magistrate Qiao away. It seems that he wants to find you."
"Come to me?" Shang Ke listened happily, "Is it possible that Deputy County Magistrate Qiao wants to come to beg me?"
"County Magistrate Shang, I don't know, but I think Deputy Magistrate Qiao is really anxious." Feng Zhanming said with a smile.
"It's good that he is anxious, but I'm afraid he is not anxious." Shang Ke grinned, "Okay, I understand, Lao Feng, you did a good job..."
Downstairs, after Qiao Liang got into the car, He Qingqing, who had been waiting in the car, couldn't wait to ask, "County Chief Qiao, what did County Chief Feng say?"
"The same rhetoric as Director Sun said that the police force is tense." Qiao Liang snorted.
"It seems that there is no hope for the police station." He Qingqing glanced at Qiao Liang secretly. Now she can only go to Shang Ke. She doesn't know if Qiao Liang will be willing to bow her head. She knows that Shang Ke has no choice but to Qiao Liang.
Liang's hatred was such that unless Qiao Liang took the initiative to bow his head, Shang Ke would never speak up about the assistance project.
"Although County Magistrate Feng said that the police force is tight and there is no way to set up a temporary police station, he is willing to say hello to the pastoral police station and ask them to send police to patrol the construction site every day." Qiao Liang said, turning to look at He Qingqing, "He
Director, please go back and contact Shi Lei to see if their office has arranged any patrol missions to the construction site."
"Okay, I'll confirm with him later." He Qingqing nodded.
After explaining He Qingqing, Qiao Liang took out a cigarette and lit it with some irritation. The reason why he asked He Qingqing to confirm with Shi Lei was because he didn't completely believe Feng Zhanming's words. Maybe Feng Zhanming had also contacted the people below.
They were all trying to deal with him, but apart from selective belief, Qiao Liang had no other choice for the time being.
Seeing Qiao Liang's agitated mood, He Qingqing did not rush to start the car, but sat quietly. Qiao Liang was the deputy county magistrate in charge of poverty alleviation, and she could understand Qiao Liang's mood at the moment.
"Director He, tell me, who instigated this group of masked men who set the fire?" Qiao Liang suddenly asked.
"Ah?" He Qingqing was stunned when he heard it, shook his head and said, "County Magistrate Qiao, I can't guess. If I could know, I could direct the people in the police station to solve the case."
"Haha, I'm afraid you won't be able to solve the case even if you find out." Qiao Liang chuckled.
"Does County Magistrate Qiao know who instigated this?" He Qingqing heard something strange in Qiao Liang's tone.
"Perhaps, I have already guessed the answer." Qiao Liang said quietly.
"Can County Magistrate Qiao guess who is behind the scenes?" He Qingqing looked shocked and asked eagerly, "Who is it?"
"Haha, I'm not 100% sure. There's no point in saying this now." Qiao Liang frowned and flicked the ashes from his cigarette, "Let's go back to the county compound. It's time to meet with County Magistrate Shang.
"
He Qingqing nodded, then quietly turned her head and glanced at Qiao Liang. She saw a mysterious look on Qiao Liang's face. It seemed that Qiao Liang really knew who was behind the masked men. This made her
He Qingqing was puzzled. The arson only happened this morning. How could Qiao Liang guess the instigator so quickly? Is there something she didn't know about here?
