Yuan Zili expressed support for Zhang Dongtao's decision. He knew that Zhang Dongtao was here to ask for money. (.)) Chen Erwa's matter was not a small matter. Yuan Zili believed that this kind of thing would never happen in Wenshan County alone. Poor people
In order to make money, people will do anything, and they will do it openly. Over the years, the county committee and the government must have lost their prestige in the eyes of the people.
"Lao Zhang, tell me, how much money do you need?"
"Secretary Yuan, the Public Security Bureau needs at least 500,000 yuan to barely keep operating. I know the financial difficulties, but I have no choice. If the funds are not resolved, the Public Security Bureau will close down."
Yuan Zili pondered for a long time. If it were in Xuanshi County, Yuan Zili would not hesitate at all and would even give more for such a small amount of money. However, Wenshan County is too poor. The financial accounts are less than 6 million yuan. These
The money needs to be maintained until the end of November to the beginning of December. After the tobacco leaf purchase is completed and the tobacco leaf tax is raised, the finance will have money. In November and December, cadres and workers will need to spend 4 million yuan in living expenses. Most of the subsidies from superiors are in
It was put in place in January 1998. From this point of view, the funds that can be used by the government are less than 2 million yuan. Moreover, it is very likely that this 2 million yuan is the total public expenditure of Wenshan County this year.
"Okay, after discussing with County Magistrate Tian, I will give you an answer. First send Chen Erwa's wife to Huaiyang City Mental Hospital for treatment. In this case, the sooner she is treated, the better the effect will be, and the people will watch it."
Zhang Dongtao quickly found Chen Erwa. In fact, there was no need to look for it. The people in the city saw that Chen Erwa was pitiful and gave him an old steel wire bed. At night, Chen Erwa asked his wife to sleep on the steel wire bed, while he wrapped himself in clothes.
Sleeping on the cart, during the day, Chen Erwa and his wife would go to the entrance of the Public Security Bureau from time to time, hoping to see the director again.
Many people felt strange when they saw the director of the Public Security Bureau looking for Chen Erwa. Soon, the gate of the Public Security Bureau was crowded with people.
"Chen Erwa, the Public Security Bureau has investigated your wife's matter clearly. It is the fault of the joint defense team members. We have already studied and decided. First, we will deal with the three joint defense team members seriously in accordance with the law. Second, on behalf of the Public Security Bureau, I will report to
You apologize. The joint defense team members made mistakes while performing their tasks. The Public Security Bureau has an unshirkable responsibility. Third, the Public Security Bureau is responsible for treating your wife and sending her to Huaiyang City for treatment. The car is ready.
, as long as you agree, leave now."
After Zhang Dongtao finished speaking, the people around him quickly fell silent. They did not expect that this would be the result. Many young people in society were ready to take the opportunity to make noises, say a few words, curse a few words, and vent their anger.
Chen Erwa did not react at first. After he fully understood what Zhang Dongtao meant, he took his wife and knelt in front of Zhang Dongtao, kowtowing hard to Zhang Dongtao. Chen Erwa felt that he had no words to express what he meant, so he could only kowtow.
, Chen Erwa's wife followed and kowtowed.
Zhang Dongtao hurriedly helped Chen Erwa and his wife. At this moment, Zhang Dongtao felt heavy. He said something that shocked the entire Wenshan County and gave hope to the people of Wenshan County.
"Chen Erwa, you have to believe that the Wenshan County Party Committee and the county government make decisions for the people, and the Wenshan County Public Security Bureau protects the safety of the people. There may be bad apples in the Public Security Bureau, but our Public Security Bureau Party Committee will never be lenient. If we find out,
We should deal with it together and give the masses a satisfactory explanation. If a public security officer cannot protect the lives of the people and endangers them instead, then he should take off his police uniform and stay in jail."
Chen Erwa was already in tears and was speechless. The people around him heard Zhang Dongtao's words and applauded consciously. Many people cheered loudly. They heard that several new leaders had come to Wenshan County. It seems that these new leaders
The leadership is very different from the original leadership.
Of course, people need to see real things. The reason why they believe what Zhang Dongtao said is because Zhang Dongtao has taken practical actions to show that the Public Security Bureau's treatment of Chen Erwa's wife is a real action.
The onlookers dispersed quickly. The police car from the Public Security Bureau was already waiting in the yard. They watched Chen Erwa and his wife get into the car. After the car started, Zhang Dongtao returned to the office.
Soon, Zhang Dongtao received a call from Yuan Zili.
"Old Zhang, what you said today is very good. On behalf of the county party committee, I would like to thank you. The situation is serious. Chen Erwa's matter is not isolated. The occurrence of this situation shows that the atmosphere in Wenshan County is not healthy and it is all caused by money.
Yes, I think about it. If we want to develop the economy of Wenshan County, without a good humanistic environment and investment environment, everything is in vain. If someone invests in Wenshan County, there will be a phenomenon of taking money and getting money everywhere. Who will come?
So, I made an appointment with Zhou Yihai and you, we will conduct a private visit incognito to see how serious the problem is, and we agreed not to notify any police officers."
During the afternoon meal, Yuan Ziliqing, Zhou Yihai, and Zhang Dongtao ate in a small restaurant in the county. Wenshan County had no money in the finance, and the leaders of Huaiyang City and the municipal units knew it. Therefore, Wenshan County had almost no reception tasks. In this regard,
It is very different from Xuanshi County. Throughout the year in Xuanshi County, a large number of heads of municipal departments go to inspect the work. Yuan Zili heard the joke in Wenshan County that it was the leaders of the municipal party committee who came to inspect the work. When it was time to eat, he saw the table
There was Moutai on the table, which felt strange, so I asked the leader of Wenshan County next to me if he remembered something and wanted to find the municipal party committee and the municipal government to ask for money. This shows that Wenshan County’s impression in the eyes of the municipal party committee and municipal government
.
Yuan Zili paid for the meal, and it didn't cost much. When Yuan Zili arrived in Wenshan County, he dragged all the cigarettes and alcohol to his home in the provincial capital. He thought that in the poor Wenshan County, smoking Chinese cigarettes would
Drinking Moutai has bad effects, but Yuan Zili still found that the leaders of Wenshan County smoked at a high level.
"Lao Zhou, I thought you would take charge of the industry in Wenshan County. Now, only the cement factory is still profitable, and the rest of the industrial enterprises are half-dead. We can only make a fuss about the cement factory. I considered the cement factory.
If the scale cannot be expanded, it will eventually be shut down. The pollution is serious, the efficiency is not high, and there is no way out. If we can add two 4-million-ton rotary kiln production lines to the cement plant, we can expand the cement plant into one to produce 525 cement.
For large-scale enterprises with an annual production capacity of 8 million tons, Wenshan County's finances will survive."
"Secretary Yuan, it's too difficult. I've also considered this issue. Two 4-million-ton rotary kiln production lines, plus the renovation and expansion of the cement plant, require nearly 200 million in funds. Where can we find investment?"
"I know it's a bit more difficult, but this is the only way now. The Planning Commission's path is unworkable. The investment is too big, so we can only find a way with foreign businessmen or big bosses."
"Secretary Yuan, do you want to find the Qin family?"
"Well, I have this idea. If we don't develop industry, Wenshan County will have no way out. We may have to die gloriously here. If the expansion of the cement plant succeeds, Wenshan County can get out of the predicament. We can start to deal with many things.
"Look at the roads in the county. They don't look like roads. No wonder the people are scolding them."
"Secretary Yuan, don't worry, I will do my best to do this."
"Lao Zhang, the environment in Wenshan County may not be that good, so today we will take a look on the spot to get first-hand information. We have just arrived in Wenshan County, and the people are not familiar with us yet. If we find any problems, we will be aware of them.
."
"Secretary Yuan, what are you worried about?"
"Old Zhang, what happened to Chen Erwa and his wife is not an isolated case. The economic conditions in Wenshan County are so poor that even the wages of cadres and workers cannot be guaranteed. Think about it, who wouldn't try their best to find money? Logically speaking, Wenshan County
There are so many service industries, and there should be taxes. However, the fiscal system does not reflect where the money has gone, so we need to understand the situation carefully."
"Secretary Yuan, you mean..."
"Old Zhang, Secretary Yuan's words can only be understood but not expressed in words. Haha, you are still the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee."
"We cannot rule out all possibilities. It is difficult to guarantee wages. Cadres and workers always have to eat. Sometimes, we do things that the common people hate with hatred. The blame falls on the county party committee and the county government. Therefore, we must take a two-pronged approach and start from the beginning.
We have to work on two aspects, otherwise we will be in trouble."
A quarrel came from the restaurant. Yuan Zili, Zhou Yihai and Zhang Dongtao were eating in a small private room when they heard the quarrel.
"I have a small restaurant here. I have a cook, a busboy, and two waiters. They have all gone to the county hospital for physical examinations. Why can't they count?"
"No, our Health Supervision Bureau has issued a notice a long time ago, requiring you to go to the bureau for inspection. This is the notice. If you don't go to the bureau for inspection again, we will issue a penalty notice."
When Yuan Zili was paying, he accidentally asked about what had just happened. The boss was a middle-aged man who seemed very honest and cautious and didn't say anything. The woman next to him didn't care so much and caught Yuan Zili complaining.
"Oh, it's difficult. Open a small restaurant, earn a few hard-earned money, and ask the government to take it all. You just collect money all day long. After paying the money, nothing happens. If you don't pay, everything will happen."
"What kind of money do I need to pay?"
"There are too many. I don't know if those who are officials will die. I can't remember the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, the Taxation Bureau, the Public Security Bureau, the Health Bureau, the Environmental Protection Bureau, the Construction Committee, and the Education Committee. Needless to say, paying taxes.
However, the physical examination is strange. It only costs 80 yuan to go to the hospital to check for hepatitis B. It costs 240 yuan to go to the health bureau. There are also health fees, sewage fees, environmental fees, and education surcharges. Just renting such a small place.
I have to check the rental fees several times. It is said that the construction committee wants to collect taxes, and the town government also joins in the fun, asking us to support economic development and urban construction. It also apportions construction fees every year, especially the public security bureau. What kind of security fee does it charge? I open a restaurant.
Yes, I don’t run a hotel, so where are the security issues? Alas, why is it so difficult to make money?”
"Are all restaurant owners like this?"
"Shit, of course those with background and power won't have such trouble. They don't have to pay anything."
"Say less."
"Let me tell you what's wrong, you loser, if you have anything to do with it, do you need to pay so much money? Humph, last year the Public Security Bureau and the Health Bureau didn't even pay the bills for meals. If you have the ability, you can go and pay the bills."
Zhang Dongtao, who was behind Yuan Zili, had a red face. He was about to step forward, but Yuan Zili held him back.
"Secretary Yuan, it seems there is a problem. With so many departments charging fees, business people must be overwhelmed."
"Lao Zhou, Lao Zhang, there should be more than just these departments. I don't believe that there are no local forces in Wenshan County. Xuanshi County has good economic conditions, and there are several forces. Wouldn't there be none here? It's just that these small bosses dare not say it.
Think about it, these departments just mentioned all represent the county committee and the county government. People always think that the money goes to the government. In fact, this is not the case at all. Functional departments with power can charge fees, but those without power
Department, what should I do? Are you convinced? The wages are not paid in full, and they openly find reasons to collect money. Even if the wages are paid in full, they will still charge arbitrarily."
"Secretary Yuan, what do you think we should do?"
"Lao Zhou, what do you think?"
"Secretary Yuan, I think we must rectify this trend. This trend is very bad. If things continue like this in the long run, this is not the answer."
"Well, we must rectify it, and we must make great efforts to rectify it. Wenshan County has formed a vicious cycle. The government has no money, and the departments are trying to collect money from below to subsidize cadres and employees. The unit leaders also have money to spend. If this continues, the environment will
It's getting worse, but now we can't apply it across the board. The government doesn't have money. No matter how we ban it, we still have to find a way. It's difficult. Only if we provide enough office funds can we basically solve the problem."
"Secretary Yuan, don't worry, there will definitely be a way."
The three of them didn't speak and wandered around the county town. It was dinner time at the moment, and the business of some small restaurants was not very good. It was rare to see them full. From time to time, Yuan Zili saw some young people wearing floral shirts and long hair.
When going in and out of the restaurant, the restaurant owner always smiles. These young people act as if there is no one else around. Their faces are red after drinking. After leaving the small restaurant, they walk away.
