Back in Long 'an, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. The moment he opened the door, the rain poured into the car. The raindrops hit his face and woke him up. The driver hurriedly got out of the car and escorted him back to the dormitory with an umbrella.
Sitting alone on the sofa, Lu Yiwei lit a cigarette and gazed at the sky illuminated by lightning outside the window. The raindrops were pattering on the glass, and the rolling clouds were like a black mountain. This might be the heaviest rain of the year.
Despite his exhaustion, he took out his phone and called Xing Bingwen, the director of the County party committee. "Call the leader in charge, then arrange for the relevant departments and towns to pay close attention to the weather and make emergency preparations for flood control. Do not be careless."
According to the division of labor, these things were originally the responsibility of the County Head. However, if something went wrong, he, as the secretary of the County party committee, would not be able to escape.
He had been a leader before, but he had never been as tired as he was now. His focus was not on work, but on dealing with all kinds of relationships. Perhaps this was the status quo of the officialdom, and the responsibility of the leader. At the same time, it seemed that apart from him, everyone else in the county seemed to be indifferent and could not keep up with his pace.
He was tired, very tired indeed.
At this moment, he really wanted to find someone to talk to and vent the anger in his heart. However, who would listen to him?
After smoking, he took a shower and lay on the bed, opening Das Kapital. He put it down before even reading a page. His mind was filled with messy thoughts, so how could he calm down to read? Unable to sleep, he sat up and spaced out for a while. He got up, put on his clothes, and drove the SUV to the back of the mountain. It was already 11: 30. To his surprise, the temporary office of Longtou was brightly lit.
When he entered the yard, the guard recognized him and hurriedly went up to report, but was stopped by him. He slowed down and went up to the second floor, where he saw Zhang Xiaohe and his team smoking and working.
"He Lei, you will take over Xin Heng Group. I want you to resume production within half a month. Let's start from the beginning and push on with the rest."
He Lei sighed. "Chief Zhang, it's not that I don't want to take over. The problem is that the County's departments are too slow. Until now, there are no procedures. The Tax Bureau said that they will wait for the court's decision before they can hand over the case. The court said that the Procuratorate has not filed a public prosecution. The Procuratorate said that the Public Security Bureau did not have enough evidence, and the Public Security Bureau said that the evidence had already been handed over to the Procuratorate. The government's efficiency makes me speechless.
Zhang Xiaohe also looked helpless as he said, "I will report this matter to Secretary Lu, but we must quickly advance the basic work that we should do. Secretary Lu invited us here for work, not a vacation. He also has his own difficulties, try not to disturb him. If it really doesn't work, I'll use my personal connections to send gifts. There's only one goal, and that's to get this done. "
He Lei picked up his beer and took a sip. "Fine. I'm really giving you face. I really don't understand why I'm here."
Lu Yiwei, who was standing outside the door, heard everything clearly. His face darkened. He was not angry at the other party's complaints, but the County's departments deliberately making things difficult for him. He pushed the door open and entered. Everyone was stunned. They quickly extinguished their cigarettes and stood up.
Zhang Xiaohe looked around for a vest to wear and walked over with a smile. "Secretary Lu, why are you here so late at night to inspect our work?"
Lu Yiwei smiled faintly and sat down to take out a cigarette. The person beside him quickly lit it up and looked at the documents scattered on the table. "I couldn't sleep, so I came to check on you. Let me know if there's anything you need help with. "
Zhang Xiaohe did not care about anything else. He sat down and said, "Secretary Lu, I knew it would be complicated from the start, but I didn't expect it to be this complicated. There are many things that I will not disturb you if I can help it, but now there is a lot of resistance. For example, Huang Jixiang Power Plant. With the help of the local government, I have already communicated with the boss. The other party is asking for 50 million, or we can forget about it. Other than that, the local government's attitude is not clear. They said that if the County takes back the only enterprise in the village, there will be no more financial resources. Huang Jixiang is just a small example. It's the same for all the villages involved. "
Lu Yiwei thought for a long time. "I have been busy with other matters and did not have time to care about this. How about this? Tomorrow, I will gather all the relevant villages and enterprises for a meeting. The day after tomorrow, we will hold a coordination meeting to focus on solving the various problems. You and Secretary Hu will make a list of the urgent problems and solve them on the spot. "
"Alright. With your support, all the work will be done quickly. We will work overnight to prepare the relevant materials."
"Ok. Thank you all for your hard work."
Lu Yiwei chatted with the others for a while and called Zhang Xiaohe to the office next door to understand the actual problems.
Zhang Xiaohe told Lu Yiwei all the difficulties and problems that they had encountered recently. Lu Yiwei was extremely angry when he heard it. He slammed the table and said, "None of the things that were arranged have been implemented. What are they thinking!" As he spoke, he picked up his phone and called the Finance Bureau Chief, Li Xuhong. "I asked you to allocate funds to Longtou. Why haven't you done it yet?"
"Secretary Lu, it's not that I don't want to allocate it, but there's nothing I can do if Mayor Qu doesn't sign it." Li Xuhong replied.
"Why didn't he sign it?"
"This … I'm not too sure."
Lu Yiwei was furious. He hung up the phone and wanted to call Qu Jiangping. But after thinking about it, he gave up the idea. "Mr. Zhang, you must inform me immediately if something like this happens in the future. You can report it to Secretary Hu if it's not convenient for me to answer the phone. Don't worry, the money will be here by tomorrow afternoon. "
"Alright. Please calm down. It's not a big deal. Maybe Mayor Qu is too busy with work and forgot about this matter. "
After Lu Yiwei calmed down, he said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm the one who invited you here to help, and I will not let you be bullied. There's no turning back. This matter must be done no matter how difficult it is. "
"You don't have to be so polite. I understand." Zhang Xiaohe smiled.
Lu Yiwei suddenly said, "If I were to leave, would you continue to stay?"
Zhang Xiaohe was stunned and did not speak for a long time.
