While the action was taking place outside, County Magistrate Zhou held a working meeting and called the transportation bureau, construction bureau, finance bureau and related departments to the small conference room of the county government. Deputy County Magistrate Zhu, who is in charge of infrastructure, was also present.
Meeting, Zhou Wen personally presided over the meeting...
People from the Municipal Audit Bureau were auditing the county government's financial accounts in the large conference room next door. Zhou Wen looked particularly calm and confident, but Director Gou disagreed. If problems could be found in the accounts, then he would call out
Damn it, besides, the county government's internal access account has nothing to do with the Transportation Bureau, so I don't have anything to worry about.
When everyone arrived, Zhou Wen announced the start of the meeting. His opening remarks were very special: "Li Hongzhang said that being an official is the easiest. If a person can't even be an official, then he can't accomplish anything."
The directors looked at each other in confusion, wondering what kind of medicine Zhou Wen was selling in his gourd.
"At the last working meeting, we talked about the issue of city and county highway construction. Deputy County Magistrate Zhu and Director Gou said that funds were tight and the cost of road maintenance was too high. I had not done any research at the time, so I had no say, but I
There is a characteristic: if you don’t understand something, you will try to figure it out. After this period of study, I have learned something, and I will share it with you today.”
After Zhou Wen finished speaking, he motioned to the staff to open the slide projector, and the word document in Zhou Wen's notebook appeared on the screen.
"I have only collected data for the last three years. You can take a look. The maintenance cost of city and county roads alone in the past three years has been as high as 70 million. The roads are repaired every year, every month, and every day. I can't help but ask, why?
A road built at a huge cost has to be repaired from the day it was built? Someone once told me that because our county's coal transportation was seriously overloaded and overloaded, the road was crushed by those big trucks pulling coal. Is this excuse true?
Leaving aside for the moment, let’s talk about another thing first. The transportation and road administration department has three brigades, 150 people, five toll stations, a total of 200 regular workers and temporary workers. These many people manage a fifty-kilometer-long highway.
On average, seven people can be accommodated per kilometer! With so many people unable to control overloading and overloading, what are you doing for food?”
Having said this, Zhou Wen slapped the table heavily and became angry.
Director Gou didn't say anything, his face turned livid. The day finally came, and he knew that Zhou Wen would have a showdown with him sooner or later. He was not worried about this. The scholar's rebellion has not been successful for three years. The Transportation Bureau is complicated and involved.
It's complicated and responsible. Even I, the head of the government, can't straighten it out. How can you, a new Maotou County Magistrate, handle it? What a joke!
"Since County Magistrate Zhou said so, I will say a few words." Director Gou opened the notebook in front of him and talked eloquently: "There are many people in the Transportation Bureau for a reason. The work of the toll station is by no means as simple as imagined. The personnel
If you have to work shifts, you need administrative leaders and political leaders. Because the toll station is located in a remote area, you need to be equipped with a commuter car. If you have a car, you need a driver. If you work the night shift, you have to live in the toll station, and there are service staff who can cook and boil water.
, As we all know, our county is a poor county, and the Transportation Bureau has arranged so many jobs. I think everyone has an account of whether it is a credit or a fault."
Now that he had done it face to face, Zhou Wen was not polite and immediately retorted: "I'm afraid it's not as simple as Director Gou said. As far as I know, many employees at toll stations just use their names to receive wages.
, the people who work are all temporary workers, and the road inspectors of the Transportation Bureau are not not enforcing the law, but are enforcing the law indiscriminately. They just let them go on the road after paying the fine. They don't care about overloading and exceeding the limit. They condone overloaded and over-limited vehicles on the road while investing a lot of money in repairing them.
Road, I think Director Gou, you must know better than me."
Director Gou's face turned green and white. Basically, if you pay a little attention to these things, you will find that they are lice on a bald man's head. It's obvious, but no one wants to take care of it. Now that he meets a more serious county magistrate, it's really a bit strange.
trouble.
"I don't want to say it, but let me tell you that all the money went to Huatai Road and Bridge Construction Company, and then it was returned to you through kickbacks. The boss of Huatai Company gave you a gift of 200,000 yuan during the Mid-Autumn Festival alone.
Cash, wrapped in newspaper, delivered directly to your office."
Director Gou was sweating profusely and suddenly stood up, staring at Zhou Wen in horror.
"The legal representative, chief accountant and chief engineer of Huatai Company have been detained by the procuratorate. Director Gou, the organizational appointment of you as the transportation director did not allow you to use your power for personal gain. The money you embezzled is enough to build three roads in Dahe Township, and
But you can shamelessly say that you lack funds in public, do you know how to write the word shameless?"
Zhou Wen pointed at Director Gou's nose and cursed freely. Director Gou's Adam's apple was twitching up and down, and he was sweating like rain. The other participants remained silent and did not dare to move.
"Okay, you can go out. People from the Municipal Anti-Corruption Bureau are waiting for you at the door. Your case will be heard in a different place, so don't report any unrealistic fantasies." After Zhou Wen finished speaking, the door of the small conference room opened.
, two men in black suits stood at the door, the red badges on the suit collars shining brightly.
The frustrated Director Gou was taken away. Before leaving, he looked at Deputy County Magistrate Zhu with a look of help. How could Deputy County Magistrate Zhu dare to pay attention to him at this moment? After the people from the Anti-Corruption Bureau left, Deputy County Magistrate Zhu
The president was the first to express his stance: "Such corrupt elements should be dealt with seriously! We will never tolerate them!"
Zhou Wen smiled faintly and said: "Deputy County Magistrate Zhu's consciousness is very high. Now let's talk about the road construction issue in Dahe Township."
The meeting went smoothly, and the financial side promised to squeeze out some funds to build the poverty alleviation highway in Dahe Township. Zhou Wen immediately announced the establishment of a highway construction headquarters, with himself as the commander-in-chief. At the same time, the entire project was subject to social supervision and the bidding was open to the public.
After the meeting, Zhou Wen returned to his office. As soon as he sat down, Director Huang came in anxiously. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
"Do you have a problem with me?" Zhou Wen asked coldly.
"County Magistrate Zhou, I have something to discuss with you."
"Let's go another day, I'm very busy."
"It was about the canteen. I made a mistake."
"If you make a mistake, go to the Discipline Inspection Commission and confess it. It's on the second floor of the County Committee."
Zhou Wen kicked Director Huang out rudely. The audit bureau's audit was mainly against him. The canteen, shuttle bus, office supplies, office furniture, and all kinds of miscellaneous expenses were all transferred through the office. There are many things here.
Even though these projects are not as good as building roads and building buildings, the money gained from moving ants makes a lot of money. Director Huang has been very greedy over the years.
This guy is versatile, he can adapt to the changing circumstances, and he has his own share of the evil deeds. Now when death is imminent, he avoids the important and takes the easy. This kind of person really won't shed tears until he sees the coffin.
…
Good things go viral, but bad things spread far and wide. The news that Director Gou of the Transportation Bureau was taken down spread quickly, and everyone was shouting. Previously, the incident of County Magistrate Zhou and his wife being "caught and raped" at the Jinfan Hotel had caused a storm in the city. Everyone was worried.
I knew that some people in the county were trying to punish the new county magistrate, but I didn't expect that the county magistrate's counterattack would be so swift and powerful. Director Gou was directly punished to death. He was granted both public office and party membership, and was directly transferred to the Jiangbei City Procuratorate for anti-corruption.
The bureau handles the matter and does not allow the Nantai County Public Security Bureau to interfere at all. This move is not only ruthless, but also shows the strength of the new county magistrate. He is a serious Jiangbei local gang, and there are people above him!
In fact, Zhou Wen has a good reputation among the people. During the prodigy milk incident, he stood up and made decisions for the people.
He is kind and friendly to the people, and the common people say that County Magistrate Zhou is a good official who only happens once in 800 years in Nantai County.
In the county government, Zhou Wen is also very popular among the grassroots staff. He doesn't put on airs or talk empty talk. Just improving the food standards in the canteen makes everyone divide him and other officials into two categories.
County Magistrate Zhou and his wife were plotted in a hotel, beaten and photographed. As soon as this news came out, the clerks who loved County Magistrate Zhou felt aggrieved. Now Zhou Wen finally fought back, and he fought back so happily.
, which really made everyone let out a bad breath. At the same time, it also made some people frightened, thinking that Zhou Wen is really a red snake.
…
"Secretary Xu, this guy is a real snake! The affairs of Huatai Company were arranged by Secretary Zhang when he was here. Everyone in the county knows that even if there is a mistake, it is not Director Gou's fault alone. He did not go through the organization
, directly using the city’s political and legal connections to move people in our county, this is challenging your authority.”
Several deputies headed by Deputy County Magistrate Zhu came to the county party committee secretary Xu Min to complain. The destruction of Director Gou made them deeply feel the danger. This Zhou Wen was too cruel. If he didn't take action, it would be a killer move. Director Gou
It doesn't matter if your political future is completely ruined, you have to be involved in it for the rest of your life. For corruption, bribery and dereliction of duty, you will not be able to escape at least a ten-year sentence. Moreover, this case is handled by the city, and Nantai County has no way to get involved.
I don’t know where they are being held, and I can’t even find a way to manage them.
"The matter of Gou Dazhuang was decided after Comrade Zhou Wen and I discussed it." Secretary Xu said calmly.
The deputies were all shocked. They didn't expect that guy Zhou Wen did such a good job and actually pulled Secretary Xu into his camp.
"Good people also have bad tempers. Rabbits bite people when they are angry. Did you know that County Magistrate Zhou's lover was almost beaten to death? She still has sequelae and needs psychological treatment. If it were you, how could you endure this tone?
Zhou Wen is the county magistrate appointed by the province, and he is a tested young reserve cadre. The leaders of the province and city all value him. You have challenged his authority again and again. Do you still have an organization in your eyes?
Is there a leader?”
The deputy county magistrates were speechless after what Secretary Xu said, so Nono had no choice but to retreat.
