Seeing that the villagers were once again agitated under the instigation of the other party, Qiao Liang quickly shouted: "Folks, don't worry, I am here to promise you that in one week, as long as one week, this money will be distributed to everyone."
In hand, everyone listen to my advice and go home first. Within a week, I guarantee that everyone will get the money."
"What if it doesn't happen by then?" someone questioned.
Qiao Liang looked around and saw that he was still the young man who had just shouted.
Seeing the other party repeatedly taking the lead, Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes. There was something wrong with this person!
"If not by then, even if I, Qiao Liang, go to borrow money, I will advance the money so that all the villagers can receive the money." Qiao Liang said loudly.
"Folks, everyone must believe in County Magistrate Qiao. County Magistrate Qiao is a good official." At this time, an old man's voice came from behind. Qiao Liang looked over and immediately saw Uncle Bucket coming from a motorcycle.
Get up and down, walk this way and shout.
Qiao Liang crossed the crowd and walked towards the other party: "Uncle Bucket, why are you here?"
"County Magistrate Qiao, I'm afraid you'll be misunderstood, so I'll come and testify for you quickly," Uncle Bucket said.
"You came all the way from the countryside?" Qiao Liang asked in surprise.
"No, I asked a relative to drive me here on a motorcycle. I hurriedly and slowly arrived, and finally I arrived." Uncle Bucket said.
When Qiao Liang heard this, he was deeply moved. This is the most honest farmer brother.
"Folks, everyone knows that the villages we registered first have all received money, so County Magistrate Qiao will never lie to everyone. He said he would pay it out, and he will definitely pay it out." Uncle Bucket said to him.
Everyone said.
Although we are not from the same village, there are many people present who know Uncle Bucket. Hearing what Uncle Bucket said, the crowd became much quieter.
"Folks, believe me, we will get the money within a week. The county has no money. I, Qiao Liang, will lend you money and I will not break my promise." Qiao Liang shouted again.
"Everyone has gone back. County Magistrate Qiao said so. Are you still afraid that you won't get the money? And County Magistrate Qiao is here, and he can't run away. Don't you think so?" Uncle Bucket smiled at everyone.
said.
Under Uncle Bucket's persuasion, and Qiao Liang's assurance was quite convincing, the villagers dispersed after hesitating for a moment.
"Uncle Bucket, thank you. You have helped me a lot today." Qiao Liang looked at the dispersed villagers and said gratefully to Uncle Bucket.
"County Magistrate Qiao is being polite to me. How can I help you? You are the one who has helped me a lot." Uncle Bucket looked at Qiao Liang gratefully, "This is the first time I have met you in my life.
Such a good and good official."
Qiao Liang laughed when he heard this and waved his hands indifferently. Thinking that Uncle Bucket was not from the same village as those people just now, Qiao Liang couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Bucket, how did you know that those villagers were going to gather in the county?"
"I heard about it when I was a guest at a relative's house in their village." Uncle Bucket explained.
"So that's it." Qiao Liang suddenly realized.
"County Magistrate Qiao, I also heard about a situation." Uncle Bucket looked at Qiao Liang and hesitated to speak.
"What's going on?" Qiao Liang looked at the other party in confusion, "Uncle Bucket, if you have anything to say, just say it."
“I heard from my relative that someone seems to be organizing them to come to the county to cause trouble, and some people in the village have been saying that the county has no money and will not pay them compensation for returning farmland to grassland, so many villagers are anxious.
"Uncle Bucket said.
When Qiao Liang heard this, he thought of the person who had been stirring up the villagers' emotions in the crowd and stirred up trouble. Qiao Liang said, "Wow, someone is indeed causing trouble secretly!"
"County Magistrate Qiao, you have to be careful. I feel like someone is deliberately destroying your reputation." Uncle Bucket reminded. In his eyes, Qiao Liang is a great official and there is absolutely no way he can lie to others.
"Well, I understand, Uncle Bucket, thank you." Qiao Liang thanked him again.
"County Magistrate Qiao met with me again." Uncle Bucket said with a smile.
"Okay, then I take back what I just said." Qiao Liang smiled and nodded.
After seeing off Uncle Bucket, Qiao Liang turned around and walked back to the compound, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
At this time, a black Highlander drove past Qiao Liang and stopped in the compound. Qiao Liang recognized it as Wang Fulai's car at a glance.
Wang Fulai got off the car. He didn't know what happened at the gate of the compound just now. When he saw Qiao Liang, Wang Fulai smiled and said hello: "County Magistrate Qiao."
"County Magistrate Wang, where did you come from? You look so good." Qiao Liang looked at Wang Fulai with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
"Really?" Wang Fulai heard that Qiao Liang's tone was strange, but he couldn't figure out what Qiao Liang meant. He laughed casually and said, "Maybe it's because I slept well at night, so I was energetic during the day."
"Haha, congratulations to County Magistrate Wang for having a good sleep. Nowadays, many of us have anxiety and depression. Our group is a high-risk group for anxiety and depression." Qiao Liang said slightly.
A smile.
"Then I won't. One good thing about me is that I eat well and sleep soundly." Wang Fulai smiled, feeling that Qiao Liang's words were weird today, so Wang Fulai didn't like to say much and walked into the office building quickly.
Qiao Liang slowly followed behind. Before entering the office building, Qiao Liang glanced up and found that Shang Ke was standing in front of the window, looking downstairs. The two looked at each other. Qiao Liang curled his lips and walked into the building.
inside.
As soon as he went upstairs, Qiao Liang found Zhao Hongjin, the director of the government office, waiting for him at the entrance of the corridor: "County Magistrate Qiao is coming up. Magistrate Shang, please come over."
"Okay." Qiao Liang nodded lightly.
Arriving at Shang Ke's office, Qiao Liang saw Shang Ke staring at him with a serious face as soon as he walked in.
"Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, do you know what a big mistake you just made?" Shang Ke asked sternly as soon as he came up.
"What's the mistake?" Qiao Liang looked at Shang Ke.
"Who made you promise to pay those villagers a week? The county finance has no money, what will you give?" Shang Ke said sharply.
"The county magistrate doesn't have to worry about this."
"Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, what's your attitude?" Shang Ke raised his voice, "As a leader, I have the obligation to remind you how rash the promise you just made casually was. As a comrade, I also kindly remind you,
Your behavior just now was very childish. Once the money cannot be distributed and the villagers gather again, and a serious mass incident occurs, can you bear the responsibility?"
"I'm the one who said it, so of course I can shoulder this responsibility." Qiao Liang chuckled, "It's rare for County Magistrate Shang to be so kind today, which really surprises me."
Shang Ke ignored the sarcasm and looked at Zhao Hongjin with a serious face: "Director Zhao, you have heard it all. This is the attitude of Deputy County Magistrate Qiao. Since Deputy County Magistrate Qiao has said all this, then you can be a witness.
, if something goes wrong later, and the superiors hold him to account, Deputy County Magistrate Qiao said he can bear the responsibility."
After hearing Shang Ke's words, Qiao Liang looked back and realized that Zhao Hongjin had also come in at some point and was standing behind him.
Damn, this kid walks like a ghost and makes no sound at all. Qiao Liang cursed in his heart. At this time, of course he could guess that Shang Ke was not well-intentioned. On the surface, he was caring about him with good intentions, but secretly he was caring about him in advance.
Lay a minefield for him.
"County Magistrate Shang, is there anything else? If nothing happens, I'll leave." Qiao Liang turned around and left without waiting for Shang Ke to answer.
Shang Ke was stunned, pointed at Qiao Liang's back and said angrily: "Look, this guy named Qiao is so arrogant."
"County Magistrate Shang, don't be too familiar with him, he won't be able to dance for a few days anyway." Zhao Hongjin said with a grin.
When Shang Ke heard this, there was a smile on his face: "This kid brought the handle to the door today. I'll let him walk away without food."
"Yeah, I didn't expect that there would be unexpected gains from today's storm."
Zhao Hongjin started laughing, and the two of them looked at each other, with a knowing smile flashing in their eyes. The two of them seemed not surprised at all by the incident today.
Qiao Liang returned to the office and pondered for a while. He was roughly certain that today's incident was definitely instigated and organized by someone behind the scenes. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the villagers to gather in the county. And thinking about it further, who did this incident affect?
It is beneficial to whom and disadvantageous to whom. Then, the answer to who is behind the scenes is already clear.
These bastards are doing everything they can! Qiao Liang cursed secretly. Thinking of what Shang Ke just said, Qiao Liang sneered, Shang Ke, Shang Ke, do you think the Finance Bureau is now in charge of Wang Fulai and is your person?
Are you at your wits' end? This time I will give you a surprise.
Qiao Liang took out his mobile phone and took a look. He had received the video from Lao San on his mobile phone. Qiao Liang smiled, got up and walked to Wang Fulai's office next to him.
Wang Fulai was humming a little tune and reading documents. When he saw Qiao Liang coming, Wang Fulai smiled and said: "County Magistrate Qiao is here, sit down quickly."
"County Magistrate Wang is in a good mood and can even sing." Qiao Liang chuckled.
"Just hum a few words, it's not boring to read documents." Wang Fulai laughed and glanced at Qiao Liang, "Mr. Qiao, are you here for something?"
"Well, I have something I want to discuss with County Magistrate Wang." Qiao Liang nodded.
"If you have anything to do with County Magistrate Qiao, just tell me and I will help you if I can." Wang Fulai vowed.
Seeing Wang Fulai's smiling face, Qiao Liang wanted to give him a hammer. This guy looked like a smiling tiger.
"County Magistrate Wang, what I want to say is, can the compensation for returning farmland and grassland to the villagers be paid out early?" Qiao Liang said.
"Hey, County Magistrate Qiao, you are still here for this." Wang Fulai showed a troubled look on his face at the right time, "County Magistrate Qiao, it's not that I don't help, it's because the county has no money."
"No matter how little money the county finances have, I believe we can still squeeze out this little money." Qiao Liang smiled slightly.
"County Magistrate Qiao, you really have no money, otherwise I would have asked the Finance Bureau to allocate it. This financial money is not mine. I have no reason to deliberately withhold it. Do you think this is the reason?" Wang Fulai said with a smile.
"Well, that's the truth, but who knows if County Magistrate Wang has other ideas." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"County Magistrate Qiao is joking, how could I have other thoughts?" Wang Fulai shook his head.
"County Magistrate Wang, I won't talk nonsense anymore. I request that the compensation for returning farmland to grassland will be distributed to the villagers within a week." Qiao Liang said sternly.
"Are you asking for it?" Wang Fulai seemed to have heard some joke, "Mr. Qiao, are you asking for it from me?"
"That's right." Qiao Liang grinned, "I believe County Magistrate Wang will definitely agree."
Wang Fulai burst out laughing. This was the funniest joke he had heard today.
