Chapter 33 The Standing Committee of the County Party Committee Goes Wild
Li Dafu asked with a trembling voice: "Secretary Zhong, are you telling the truth?! We are really going to build a road in Shanglin!". [ ]
Zhong Hanliang laughed and said: "Of course it's true! Township Chief Duan personally went to the province to ask for 60 million in funds. Not only did he plan to build the road from Shanglin to Gulin County into a cement road, but he also planned to build a new road in the middle.
Pass S306 Provincial Road!".
The party secretaries of each village were so excited that many shed tears. At this time, Xie Shanquan, the oldest party secretary of Xinlin Village, suddenly made an unexpected move. He walked up to Duan Zetao with tears in his eyes and gave him a hug.
He knelt down.
"Chief Duan, you are our living Bodhisattva in Shanglin Township! On behalf of our fellow villagers in Xinlin Village, I kowtow to you!" Xie Shanquan said and was about to kowtow to Duan Zetao.
Duan Zetao quickly helped Xie Shanquan up, "Xie Zhishu, you are ruining my life. I just did what a township leader should do!".
Li Dafu wiped away his tears and choked up and said: "Headmaster Duan, you can bear it! When I go back, I will ask the villagers to build a shrine for you and worship you every day!" Other village party secretaries also agreed.
Duan Zetao was also a little excited. People are so honest and honest. If you do good things for them, they will miss you forever, even if it is just within your responsibilities.
"Nonsense! Are you saying this as a party member? You are not thanking me, but harming me! Road construction is not the result of Duan Zetao alone, but the result of the efforts of all the people of the township party committee and township government! You really want to thank us
, just go back and do your work for the fellow villagers, and don’t hold you back when the time comes for you to volunteer!”.
Li Dafu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Chief Duan, if any *** dares to hold back, I'll beat the shit out of him!".
The village party secretaries went back to assign tasks with great enthusiasm, but a sudden phone call from Xiao Lin made Duan Zetao's good mood fall to the bottom, and he became extremely angry.
"Zetao, Secretary Ma wants you to come to the county. The Standing Committee of the County Party Committee will discuss the use of road construction funds. Secretary Ma wants you to attend the meeting!" Xiao Lin's voice on the phone was a bit strange.
"If everything is not settled, why are we still discussing it?" Duan Zetao asked in confusion.
"Well, it's like this. County Magistrate Liu found out about this. He went to Secretary Ma and said that the government is in charge of finance and asked to discuss the matter at the Standing Committee. Secretary Ma was also in a dilemma! In short, you will know when you come here.
..." Xiao Lin said vaguely.
Someone was trying to rob Hu while picking peaches! Duan Zetao was so angry that he hung up the phone and rushed to the county seat.
There is an unwritten rule when holding a standing committee meeting in Gulin County. The standing committee member with the lowest ranking will arrive first, and the other standing committee members will arrive in order. It will be very embarrassing if the standing committee member with the highest ranking arrives first.
Originally, in this order, County Party Secretary Ma Fugui should arrive last, but County Magistrate Liu Mingzheng has been the county magistrate for many years and is a local. More than half of the Standing Committee members are close to him. Ma Fugui was transferred from other places, so Liu Mingzheng came.
She was trying to avoid getting along with him, and often came last with excuses, which made Ma Fugui very irritable.
In the end, there was a competition between the two of them to see who was coming later. They sent their secretaries to find out whether the other party had come, and then came back when they came. Therefore, the Standing Committee meeting in Gulin County was almost never on time.
But today Ma Fugui came very early. When Duan Zetao arrived at the county, he was already sitting in the conference room. Duan Zetao excitedly wanted to ask him what was going on, but he waved his hand and said: "Zetao, here you are.
Sit there, let’s have a meeting first, let’s have a meeting first, and we’ll talk about it later after the meeting is over.”
Duan Zetao had no choice but to sit down on a chair in the corner in despair. Other members of the Standing Committee came in sparsely. They were surprised to see Ma Fugui, who had arrived early, and Duan Zetao, who was attending the meeting, but they did not say anything and sat in their seats one after another.
Already.
Liu Mingzheng was the last one to come in. When he saw Duan Zetao, he asked coldly: "Xiao Township Chief Duan, why are you here? You are not a member of the Standing Committee?!".
Ma Fugui said: "I asked him to attend the meeting. Today we will discuss the use of road construction funds in Shanglin Township. The funds were requested by Township Chief Duan from the province, so I asked him to attend the meeting."
Liu Mingzheng sneered and said nothing more. He had already communicated with several members of the Standing Committee yesterday. How could Duan Zetao, a small acting mayor, change the world?!
When Liu Mingzheng sat down, Ma Fugui coughed twice and said slowly: "The meeting is about to begin! First of all, I want to emphasize the discipline of the meeting. The meeting is scheduled to start at ten o'clock, and everyone will arrive at ten thirty. What kind of work style is this! It's too free and loose.
Got it!".
Liu Mingzheng knew that Ma Fugui was targeting him, and he was too lazy to tangle with Ma Fugui on these trivial matters. He already had a chance to win anyway, so what if he let Ma Fugui take advantage of him?
He took Ma Fugui's words and said: "Secretary Fugui is right. Everyone should pay more attention to discipline issues in the future. Let's get to the point. Township Chief Duan got a sum of road construction funds from the province and made a great contribution!
The government is in charge of finance, and the whole county is in a game of chess. I think it is necessary to discuss the use of this fund at the Standing Committee, and everyone should share their opinions!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Wenshan, the executive deputy county magistrate who always followed him closely, said: "County Magistrate Liu just said it well. The government is responsible for finance. The whole county is a game of chess. I think this money should be managed by the county government."
, unified planning and unified management can play a greater role!”.
Organization Minister Jiang Hankun objected: "This is not appropriate. The money was obtained by Township Chief Duan from the province. If the county misappropriated the money halfway, then who will go to the province to run funds in the future? This will
Destroy the enthusiasm of our cadres!”.
Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Liu Sanping and Liu Ming are cousins, and they have always been very close. He immediately retorted: "I don't agree with Minister Han Kun's opinion. It is true that the money was brought by Township Head Duan, but after all, it is not him."
If it's personal, we can give him a reward when he gets the funds, but it's more appropriate for the county government to manage the money in a unified way!"
Propaganda Minister Ma Shandong is also Liu Mingzheng's. He expressed his position: "Secretary Sanping is right. He only looks at his own one-third of an acre. That is a selfish mentality. Otherwise, everything must be considered from the overall situation. I don't believe Duan Xiang."
My consciousness is so low!"
The scene was one-sided, with a total of nine members of the Standing Committee (note: there were originally eleven members of the Standing Committee. The former Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee has retired. Public Security Director Liu Weiguo failed to fill the vacancy. Xia Shannan, the Standing Committee member and deputy county magistrate, was studying at the party school and was absent.
), Liu Mingzheng already had four people on his side, and Ma Fugui had no choice but to look at Yuan Heping, Deputy Secretary of the Party and Mass Masses, and Nie Datong, Minister of Human Resources and Armed Forces, who were usually neutral.
Minister of Human Resources and Armed Forces Nie Datong abstained from voting because his daughter Nie Qian was working under Duan Zetao, but he did not want to offend the powerful Liu Mingzheng. Everyone focused their attention on Yuan Heping, deputy secretary of the party and masses.
Yuan Heping is considered a tumbler in Gulin's official circles. He has been the deputy secretary of the Party and the Masses for ten years. He has always believed in the principle of self-preservation. In addition, he is about to retire. He originally did not want to get involved in the fight between Ma Fugui and Liu Mingzheng, but yesterday Liu Mingzheng found him.
He promised that if the road construction funds were managed by the county, he could take care of a section of his brother-in-law's engineering company. He didn't want to live on his pitiful salary after retirement, so he turned to Liu Mingzheng.
Yuan Heping did not express too many opinions, and simply expressed his agreement with Liu Mingzheng's opinion. Liu Mingzheng showed a smile on his face as the overall situation was decided.
Ma Fugui's face suddenly turned livid. Yuan Heping turned to Liu Mingzheng's side, which was indeed beyond his expectation. Although this was just an ordinary Standing Committee meeting, what he was concerned about now was not the whereabouts of the funds, but his own future.
If he is suppressed by Liu Mingzheng in the Standing Committee, then what prestige does he have as a secretary?
Now he can only make a last ditch effort. Ma Fugui's agreement to open this standing committee is also a trap for Liu Mingzheng. He wants Duan Zetao, who has a strong background, to be his pawn to confront Liu Mingzheng, so that he can reap the benefits.
Now we can only see whether Duan Zetao can withstand it.
Ma Fugui coughed dryly and said, "We'd better listen to the opinion of the person concerned, Mayor Duan."
Duan Zetao has been watching everyone's performance with cold eyes. His mood has changed from angry and depressed at the beginning. He looked at the ugly faces of these guys who swooped on them like flies when they saw the benefits, and his heart was filled with disdain.
If you want to pick peaches, just pick peaches, and add high-sounding reasons to it, even taking off the label of egotism.
He stood up calmly and said calmly: "I object. This fund is allocated by the Provincial Department of Transportation to Shanglin Township for special use. Even if I can agree, the hundreds of thousands of people in Shanglin Township will not agree!"
.
Liu Mingzheng pounded the table and said angrily: "Duan Zetao! Do you still have an organization in your eyes? You are not a cadre under the county party committee! You actually threaten me with ordinary people, and your tail will go up to the sky after you achieve some results! Even the decision of the county party committee standing committee
How dare you disobey! With your level of consciousness, you are not worthy of being a township head. I will remove you from your post now!"
Duan Zetao glanced at Liu Mingzheng with disdain and said coldly: "Thank you, County Magistrate Liu, for reminding me that my organizational relationship is with the Organization Department of Shannan Prefectural Committee. I will report to the organization right away!" He took out his mobile phone and dialed.
Zhang Xiaochuan's phone number came up.
Liu Mingzheng was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Duan Zetao was a cadre sent from the Organization Department of the Shannan Prefectural Committee. However, he did not believe that Duan Zetao could directly talk to the Organization Minister of the Prefectural Committee, and he did not believe that Zhang Xiaochuan would pay attention to the complaint of a small temporary cadre.
, he looked at Duan Zetao on the phone with a sneer.
