Chapter 1098 Self-interest and public spirit
Xue Kaiqi didn't stay too long in Deping City and left by car after breakfast.
After sending Xue Kaiqi away, Li Yuanlang was in the office looking at the relevant information sent by Xu Guangshui to Deping City. Vice Mayor Wei Xingfu arrived uninvited.
After sitting down, Li Yuanlang was about to make tea for Wei Xingfu. Wei Xingfu quickly waved his hand and said, "Mayor Li, don't be busy. I'll just say a few words and leave."
Li Yuanlang put down his water glass and sat back down, listening quietly to Wei Xingfu's intention.
"Mayor Li, Fan Youcheng, the boss of Jingcheng Chemical, came to me just now and talked about a civil dispute currently facing his company."
"Are you talking about Jingcheng Chemical, the leading chemical company in our city?" Li Yuanlang also learned from the materials that Jingcheng Chemical is a well-known private enterprise in Deping City and is second to none in the chemical industry.
The company has nearly a thousand employees and is a major profit and tax owner in Deping City.
"Yes." Wei Xingfu nodded and said, "The Deping City Environmental Protection Federation's case against Jingcheng Chemical for dumping industrial waste into the Dechun River has now been heard."
"Environmental protection case?" Li Yuanlang frowned, "Such a big company, Jingcheng Chemical, blatantly dumped industrial waste into the river?"
Wei Xingfu explained: "This case is more complicated. Jingcheng Chemical entrusted Yuantai Chemical to process more than 4,000 tons of industrial waste. Yuantai Chemical took risks in order to save money and dumped the waste into the Dechun River."
"Previously, those involved in the Yuantai Chemical case have been brought to justice. Now, residents on both sides of the Dechun River have entrusted the Deping City Environmental Protection Federation to file a public interest litigation with the Deping City Intermediate People's Court against Jingcheng Chemical and Yuantai Chemical, which are manufacturers.
The party and the processor should compensate a total of more than 300 million yuan for the environmental restoration costs of the Dechun River."
"Fan Youcheng and the others feel they were wronged. The person who dumped the waste was Yuantai Chemical and had nothing to do with them. All the people involved in the case handled by the police were from Yuantai Chemical. From this point alone, we can clearly judge that Jingcheng Chemical is innocent."
"Moreover, Fan Youcheng mentioned in his words that if Jingcheng Chemical were to spend such a large amount of money, their company's capital chain would have problems, and the company would lay off employees or close down. Mayor Li, Jingcheng Chemical has thousands of employees
, once this situation occurs, the jobs of thousands of people will not be saved, which is a huge pressure for us."
Li Yuanlang touched his chin, frowned into a knot, and said solemnly: "Comrade Xingfu, environmental protection is a national priority and cannot be taken lightly."
"Since Jingcheng Chemical is innocent, it can make it clear in court. We are the city government, not the court, and we have no power to decide the outcome."
"Fan Youcheng came to us just to put pressure on us in the name of retaining employees. Please tell him what I said. We welcome you to do business properly. Don't use those little tricks. You are smart. We will not accept this."
set!"
Wei Xingfu thought for a while and said awkwardly: "Mayor Li, I understand all this. I was thinking that this civil compensation case has been in court for a month. The judges of the Municipal Intermediate Court went to Jingcheng Chemical every three days to understand the situation.
It seriously affected the normal work of the company, leaving Fan Youcheng exhausted and full of complaints."
"I would like to ask you to say hello to the Municipal Intermediate People's Court and ask about this case. Don't let them always hold on to Jingcheng Chemical."
Li Yuanlang tapped his fingertips rhythmically on the table and said slowly: "Okay, I will ask Li Peishe of the Intermediate People's Court. However, I still say that we will not do it because Jingcheng Chemical is the leading company in the industry.
, just give them unprincipled care.”
Having said this, Wei Xingfu was not in a hurry to get up and leave, but hesitated and hesitated to speak.
"Comrade Xingfu, do you have anything else to do?" Li Yuanlang asked with raised eyebrows.
"Mayor Li, Fan Youcheng is a representative of the provincial and municipal conferences. Considering that you are still the acting mayor, I don't want your relationship to become tense..."
Li Yuanlang shook his head decisively and waved his hands, "Whether I can become a regular official is the decision of the deputies. I believe that the deputies all have a just and upright heart. As for my personal gains and losses, I cannot do it at the expense of harming the interests of the people, and I cannot use power for personal gain. This is my
bottom line and principles.”
It seems that Li Yuanlang's words surprised Wei Xingfu.
After walking out with worries, Wei Xingfu returned to his office and said to Fan Youcheng who was waiting on the sofa: "Mr. Fan, I just told Mayor Li about your matter, and he didn't agree with you.
You must be prepared to respond, and don’t fantasize about filing a lawsuit.”
Fan Youcheng touched the shiny back of his head and said disapprovingly: "Mayor Wei, don't be discouraged. Mayor Li just came, so he has to pretend to be aloof and arrogant to outsiders. There is no need for this.
Don't worry, I'll look for an opportunity later to have a good meeting with Mayor Li."
After that, Fan Youcheng stood up, shook hands with Wei Xingfu and said goodbye: "Mayor Wei, I just bought an imported fishing rod. When you are free, come to my place to fish. Let me tell you, this fishing rod is very advanced.
, you can clearly see the fish underwater.”
"So magical?" Wei Xingfu's eyes sparkled.
"It's high technology." Before leaving, Fan Youcheng even made a gesture to contact him by phone.
Mu Guangsen came to Li Yuanlang's office at three o'clock in the afternoon.
Seeing that Li Yuanlang's water glass was not full, he immediately took it over and refilled it.
"Have you finished checking in?" Li Yuanlang asked while looking at something. He reached for the thermos cup, picked it up and took a sip.
"I just finished checking in and came to see you."
"Okay." Li Yuanlang stretched his waist, "Please sort out the materials I have read, and I will continue to read them when I go back in the evening."
"Also, Xu Guangshui has arranged a place for you to live in the same courtyard as mine. It is not far from my place, so it is convenient to come and go. Guangsen and Deping are a strange environment, and the people here are even stranger. We don't want to get too close. You
Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand." Mu Guangsen didn't mind at all not living with Li Yuanlang.
After all, Deping is a prefecture-level city, different from Shuntong Company.
There are many people and things going on here, so it’s best to be cautious in everything you do.
After Mu Guangsen left, Li Yuanlang thought for a while, picked up the phone and called, "Hey, Secretary-General Xu, are you free tonight? I'd like to treat you to dinner."
Xu Guangshui was startled and immediately said: "Mayor, why don't you invite me? I'll treat you instead."
"It doesn't matter who invites whom. I just came here and am not familiar with Deping City. How about you decide the place and we can go together after get off work?"
"Okay, we'll contact you later."
Xu Guangshui put down the phone, feeling very happy.
Even though Mayor Li is several years younger than him, he works steadily and most importantly, seems to be easy to get along with.
Booking a hotel is not difficult for Xu Guangshui. He is responsible for contacting the reception office of the municipal government. He knows the characteristics of Deping City very well.
Just one phone call and everything will be done.
I called my home in advance and told my wife that he was the first person in Deping to accompany the mayor to dinner.
My wife couldn't help but start nagging on the phone again, "Guang Shui, you should drink less at night, and especially watch your mouth and don't say anything out loud."
"Look at you, you're bringing this up again." Xu Guangshui became unhappy.
"You have suffered a lot before. You have been hanging around at the director level for many years. Look at the group of people promoted at the same time as you. The biggest one has become the secretary of the municipal party committee, and the worst one is also the deputy mayor. Just you,
You are still running around at the director level. If you hadn't been drunk and talked nonsense, you wouldn't have offended anyone. You would have been the county party secretary long ago. By now, you must be the deputy mayor."
Xu Guangshui said angrily: "Why do you bring up the Chen Sesame and Rotten Millet thing? Isn't it annoying? Besides, even if I didn't talk about that thing, that person would hate me to the bone, and even the promotion gatekeeper wouldn't mention me.
.”
"Hmph, I will remember this grudge for the rest of my life. It is said that thirty years from Hedong to thirty years from Hexi, when the hard times are over, good times will come. Don't you know the word "Fu Ji Tai Lai"? Maybe, I will turn around. Okay.
, I won’t talk to you anymore, I have something else to do, don’t worry about me for dinner tonight.”
The moment he hung up the phone, Xu Guangshui vowed to himself that he would never get drunk.
Don't give Li Yuanlang the first impression, he is an alcoholic.
As usual, Mu Guangsen drove his car and followed the car navigation.
