I knew the place he told me. It was not far from the municipal party committee. It was the family home of the municipal party committee. He actually lived there. I suddenly felt an imbalance in my heart - why did you arrange for me to be in that place?
A place to stay?
I didn't walk to that place, but took a rickshaw. I didn't chat with the cyclist because I knew that even if I wanted to know something, he might not be able to know it, because I already knew it.
Most of the people who work in this industry in this city are farmers from the surrounding mountainous areas. They don’t care about some things. From morning to night, they spend time on this rickshaw. After a tiring day, they may not even return to their residence.
When they no longer have the energy to take a shower, how can they care about other things? Many things are a luxury for them.
Can hard work really make you rich? I am cautious about this.
When I got off the bus, I gave him five yuan and said, "No need to look for it." The rickshaw driver kept thanking me. I didn't feel happy in my heart. Instead, I felt a sigh in my heart: If these people
If everyone can become rich, it means that our country has truly become rich and powerful. I know that it may take a very long process.
I feel helpless about many things, not to mention a deputy mayor like me, even as the secretary of the provincial party committee. No matter in any dynasty or in any period, the people who suffer from poverty will always be the people living at the bottom.
It is always an unbreakable rule.
When I arrived at Minister Yang's residence, he had already made tea for me. Of course it was good tea. This place is very nice. The decoration is not so luxurious, but it gives people a fresh feeling. I like this style because it is not
It's like a hotel, more like home.
I couldn't help but look at his living room again, with solid wood floors, white walls, and several oil paintings on the white walls. The white air conditioner and the sofa were made of fabric, which added to the warm feeling inside. I
He said with envy: "Your place is nice, who designed it for you?"
He smiled and said: "I bought this house and renovated it. I designed it myself."
I immediately looked at him in shock, "You bought it? Are you planning to work here for the rest of your life?"
He suddenly laughed, "I have always been like this before. When I arrived in a place, I would first buy a local house and then decorate it. After a few years, I would sell it when I left there. The house prices have been rising.
Isn't it? When I sold it, I just made back the money spent on the decoration. Anyway, my purpose is not to make money on this, so I just don't lose money. If the organization wants me to work in another place in the future, I will also use this.
The place is sold. This house is cheaper. It is a house funded by the municipal committee and it does not cost me much. I like the simple decoration method, so that I can move in quickly and not spend much money."
I couldn't help but laugh, "This is a good idea. But I don't have such leisure. How much trouble? By the way, I don't know why the municipal government office arranged for me to live in the bank's family home, and
You also opened a special entrance and exit for me. Isn't this intentional to let others gossip about me?"
He said: "Your situation is different from mine. The place where I live was found for me by people from the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee. Secretary Chen also lives here, and his house was arranged by the Municipal Party Committee General Office. We live here with a
The good thing is that ordinary people don't dare to visit casually, because most of the people living here are from the municipal party committee system, and others are supervising them. You are different, the work in the government is relatively simple, and I guess I will definitely arrange you there.
It was Mayor Wen's idea. It is said that your predecessor had scandals in the place where you live now. Mayor Feng, you have to pay attention."
I immediately said: "It seems that I have to ask people from the government office to install a door under me as soon as possible. Otherwise, anyone can come to my place. Then I will just jump into the Yellow River."
I can’t wash it off anymore.”
But he shook his head and said: "I don't think you need to be so sensitive. Isn't there someone grabbing your pigtails now? Just pretend you don't know. The more confused you are, the less people will guard you, so you will have a lot less trouble.
Trouble. The key to the problem is not whether to install the door, but your attitude towards such things. There is a saying that beauty is a disaster, but how can beauty be a disaster? The real problem lies with us men. Don’t you think so?
"
I thought about it for a moment, and suddenly I felt that what he said made sense. I immediately asked him: "Minister Yang, why did you call me here? Is it possible that I can do something that you, the organization director, can't handle?"
He shook his head and sighed: "When Secretary Chen and I were discussing this cadre adjustment, we planned to let the wind out first, and then deliberately postponed the specific study time. The purpose of this was to let some people
Let's create chaos first, and then we can find more problems. Judging from the current situation, our method has indeed achieved very good results. Mayor Feng, let me ask you, it has been so long since you have been in Shangjiang City
, what do you think is the biggest problem with this place?”
I thought about it and said: "If I want to go into detail, I might not be able to finish it in one or two sentences, but I think it can be summarized in the simplest sentence, that is: the corruption problem of local cadres has reached the point where people and gods are angry.
Also, people dare to be angry but dare not speak out, so they choose to be numb."
His expression was indifferent, and he was looking at me, "Why do you say that?"
I understand that he is asking me for the basis for what I said. This does not mean that he is objecting to my statement, but that he is looking to see how much I have learned about the situation. Because what I said is the truth, and this is
He should be fully aware of the situation, and besides, he didn’t directly say, “You’re so right.”
I said: "To give a very simple example, many leaders in the city actually have their own restaurants, including the secretaries-general of the general offices of the four major families. In this way, they use their power to earn money for official receptions.
Money, what’s even more frightening is that this trend has spread to the heads of departments below. This is simply incredible and unbelievable! What’s more, my own family has set up a construction company to specialize in contracting investment projects in the city.
. It can be said that as long as there are people with some power in their hands, they will use their power to seek personal gain for themselves. For example, Mayor Yin has someone in her family who specializes in teaching supplementary books and sells them to the whole city.
Students sell supplementary reading materials, which accounts for more than 40% of the profits. There are also heads of urban construction departments. City construction projects, including the installation and materials of street lights, are all done by their relatives...
Forget it, I won’t say it anymore, it’s simply shocking to say it. It’s terrible! I really don’t understand why these people are so bold? Didn’t the previous leaders of this place discover these problems?”
He nodded and sighed at the same time: "Yes. It's terrible." (To be continued)
