The next day, Xu Fan and Transportation Director Li Sanhe arrived at the Metropolitan Transportation Bureau and asked the driver Xiao Gao to drive back.
When they arrived at the transportation bureau, Li Sanhe was relatively familiar with him. Because he had already contacted him before, he took Xu Fan straight to the transportation director's office.
The Municipal Transportation Bureau is a large-scale organization with ten departments and a large number of personnel, and there is an endless stream of people coming to do things.
Zhuang Zedong, 51 years old, has a fat head, big ears, and a big belly. It seems that the director of the city's transportation bureau is really well-paid, and the appearance of the leader is impressive.
Facing the county-level transportation director and a deputy county magistrate of the subordinate county, Zhuang Zedong felt very superior. At this moment, he was sitting on the executive chair and was reading a document. After Xu Fan and Li Sanhe came in to say hello to him, they were
He left it on the sofa and ignored the two of them, as if the document was very important and he had to read it thoroughly before he would give up.
Li Sanhe looked at Xu Fan with an apologetic and embarrassed smile. Xu Fan shook his head at him and signaled to be silent and wait patiently. Then he picked up the tea cup and carefully tasted the ordinary old tea.
It seemed as if there was something special about the tea. He was calm and calm. Influenced by Xu Fan, Li Sanhe put down his worries and tasted the tea carefully.
I have to say that these officials have become extremely skilled in their patience, which is quite admirable.
After about half an hour, Director Zhuang reluctantly put down the document. Because during this half hour, he also answered four phone calls. Xu Fan could tell that three of them were asking him to have lunch, and they probably asked him to do things.
Yes, he said it very impatiently. Xu Fan smiled bitterly in his heart, cursing secretly that no wonder this bastard is so fat, he was already tired of eating.
After putting down the document, Director Zhuang walked over and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, County Magistrate Xu, Director Li, I just had a more important document to read, so I'm so sorry for leaving you two out." Xu Fan smiled.
Said: "Director Zhuang is in charge of the city's transportation construction, and naturally has many things to do every day. We should wait. It's only embarrassing to disturb Director Zhuang this time, haha."
This flattery made Zhuang Zedong grin widely, and his shiny fat face became even more shiny: "Haha, County Magistrate Xu is really good at talking. I wonder what is going on with County Magistrate Xu and Director Li coming here this time?".
Xu Fan took out a document and put it in front of Zhuang Zedong and said: "This is our county's road reconstruction planning report. Director Zhuang probably also knows that Shitou County is one of the poorest counties in our province; improve the economy of Shitou County and
It is the expectation of the municipal party committee, and it is also the responsibility of the county party committee and county government. This time the county decided that I would be responsible for the economy, so it is naturally my responsibility. No, we decided to renovate the provincial roads first, and then start attracting investment. So please ask Director Zhuang
If you can allocate some money, I would like to thank Director Zhuang on behalf of the people of Shitou County, haha."
When Zhuang Zedong heard that it was for money, his fat face instantly sank. He picked up the report, flipped through it, put it down, and said: "County Magistrate Xu, I'm really sorry, our municipal transportation bureau's funding plan for this year has been
It has been overfulfilled. Normally, county-level highway approvals must be submitted half a year in advance, so that we can make reasonable plans and arrangements. Now you suddenly ask for money, where do you expect me to get such a large amount of money?
,Yes or no?".
Xu Fan said with a smile: "I know Director Zhuang's difficulties. It is really not easy for such a large bureau to manage the road traffic in the city and so many counties below. But there is nothing we can do. Now the roads are about to be
Construction has started. This is the county's decision, and I have no choice. So, Director Zhuang, do you think you can allocate some to me for emergencies? I'm not greedy. You only need to give me five million, and I'll take care of the rest.
I have to go find the mayor, haha."
Zhuang Zedong's face darkened when he heard this: "County Magistrate Xu, is five million still a small number? I really can't come up with it, let alone five million, I can't even come up with 100,000 yuan. Let's do this.
Why don't you go talk to the mayor, maybe he'll give you 10 million if he likes it."
Xu Fan felt angry when he heard this, but he tried his best to suppress the anger and said calmly: "Director Zhuang, your bureau is in charge of road traffic. It's not like you don't know the situation in our county. That road is full of potholes."
If you don't improve it, how can you improve the county's economy? No matter what, it's your responsibility to support the counties below to improve road transportation, right? Why don't you give a penny?"
When Zhuang Zedong heard this, he became angry and said to himself: How dare you, a small deputy county magistrate, accuse me? What can I do to you if I don't give it to you? Thinking of this, he said coldly: "County Magistrate Xu, I didn't say I don't support it.
You guys, as I said just now, you have to submit the report half a year in advance so that we can make overall plans. Let me accept this report and I will allocate 5 million to you in half a year. How about that?"
Xu Fan stood up and said, "I'll leave the report to you. Since you don't want to give it to me, I'll go find the mayor and take my leave." After saying that, he left. After taking only two steps, he suddenly turned back to Zhuang Zedong and said, "Director Zhuang."
, don’t regret if you don’t give me five million now, otherwise, if you want to give me again, I will give you ten million, haha, let’s go.”
Director Zhuang looked at the two people's backs with contempt: "You are the only one who is a bad county magistrate, bah!".
Xu Fan led Li Sanhe out of the director's office. When they got downstairs, Li Sanhe said anxiously: "County Chief Xu, if you talk to Director Zhuang like this, he will definitely be very angry. Then we can't get anything from him in the future."
The money has arrived.”
Xu Fan smiled, stopped and said to Li Sanhe: "Director Li, he is not as courageous as the Municipal Transportation Bureau. Don't worry, his boss will obediently give us money. If you don't believe it, just watch. In the afternoon
He will give us 10 million, haha"
Li Sanhe stared at Xu Fan with wide eyes. He really couldn't imagine what ability this young County Magistrate Xu had to make Director Zhuang obediently give him 10 million.
Xu Fan looked at Li Sanhe with disbelief on his face and didn't explain. He just hailed a taxi, got in and said he was going to the city hall.
Qiao Ziliang, the mayor of Metropolis, is 50 years old. He is neither fat nor thin. He is easy-going and has a very friendly image with a smile on his face.
When Xu Fan was the mayor's secretary, he followed Director Yuan here for several meetings. Naturally, he knew Mayor Qiao and his secretary.
Now he and Li Sanhe walked to the door of the mayor's office and entered the secretary's office. The mayor's secretary Zheng Da was a young man and very smart. At this time, he was sitting at his desk reading a newspaper.
