After Lu Yiwei arrived in Shiwan Village, people were speculating about how the "three fires" would be started. However, after waiting for almost a month, the first fire had not started, which was somewhat surprising. After the previous Party Secretary, Wei Guoqiang, took office, the first thing he did was to deprive Deputy Head Fu Jiangsheng of the logistical work and hand it over to his own driver. From the maintenance of the office building, the management of the canteen, and the management of the vehicles, to the office supplies, the purchase of tobacco, alcohol, and tea, and the signing of the bills, everything was decided by the driver alone. He was jokingly called the "Minister of Internal Affairs" of Shiwan Village.
The reason why Wei Guoqiang fought to hand this work over to the driver was naturally because he saw the gray interests in it. Among them, the management of the canteen, the purchase of tobacco, alcohol, and tea, as well as the hospitality were the most secretive. Basically, every step could be exploited. A meal originally cost 100 RMB, but he could sign a bill of 1,000 RMB, which would net him 900 RMB. A computer originally cost 5,000 RMB, but he could reimburse 20000 RMB. As long as the accounts were done properly, everything would be flawless. Although it was a small amount of money, it would be a huge sum after accumulating for a long time.
After Wei Guoqiang was removed, the logistical work was personally handled by the previous head of the village. This stingy head of the village was interested in all kinds of money. He kept all the money in his pocket, regardless of whether it was thick or thin. Others could only watch and not think about it.
Lu Yiwei knew about this situation like the back of his hand after he arrived, but because he was so busy with the immigration project, he did not have the time to care about this. Moreover, he did not plan to start the "three fires", but to use a conciliatory approach to win over people's hearts. He did not monopolize power and did not abuse it. He gave the deputy head of the village and the station chiefs full autonomy. Other than the major issues that were reported and resolved through negotiation, they could completely decide on other matters.
"Who's in charge of the canteen now?" Lu Yiwei asked as he drank his porridge.
Fu Jiangsheng suddenly became interested and said, "Standing Committee Lu, the logistical work is temporarily handled by the Office Director, Yang Yongmei."
"Oh." Lu Yiwei stuffed half a bun into his mouth and wolfed it down. He ate some pickled vegetables and said, "I heard that you used to be in charge of the logistical work?"
"Yes!" Fu Jiangsheng nodded heavily. From Lu Yiwei's tone, it seemed like he would have to manage it himself. He couldn't help but feel delighted.
Lu Yiwei looked around and said to Song Yong, "Mr. Song, why don't you hand over the logistics to Fu Jiangsheng?"
Lu Yiwei's action made Song Yong feel flattered. In the past, the leader's decision was an order, and the subordinates just had to follow it. However, Lu Yiwei was different. He was actually discussing with him, which meant that he cared about him. He looked at Fu Jiangsheng and said, "Mr. Fu used to be in charge of logistics, so you must have some experience. I think it's fine!"
Fu Jiangsheng was overjoyed. He immediately stood up, bowed, and said excitedly, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for trusting me. I will definitely do a good job in logistics."
"En." Lu Yiwei nodded and said, "Since I've given you a burden, you should shoulder it. Not only do it well, but also do it better. I've been in a village before, and I know the conditions are tough. Everyone has given up on their own homes to take care of everyone, so we can't treat them badly. After that, you can set up a menu. Make it different from Monday to Sunday to improve everyone's meals. Don't be afraid of spending money. It won't save much. Also, renovate the cafeteria and empty out the warehouse next door. Make it an activity room for everyone to have fun. "
"Okay, I'll do it later!" Fu Jiangsheng was overwhelmed with emotions when he heard that Lu Yiwei was willing to spend money.
Song Yong added, "Mr. Lu is right. Everyone has been working hard. How can they eat well if they only have porridge and pickled vegetables every day? In the future, cook an egg and make a cup of warm milk for everyone every morning. Don't be so calculative about this, do you hear me? "
"Yes, yes, yes. I understand." Fu Jiangsheng looked at the two young men who were echoing each other, and his heart was filled with emotions.
Lu Yiwei asked again, "How much did you charge for each meal in the past?"
"One yuan for morning and night, two yuan for lunch."
"Oh." Lu Yiwei nodded and said, "It's not much. It's only about 100 yuan per person per month. How about this? From next month onwards, everyone's food expenses will be covered by the township government. Also, each person will be given another 50 yuan per month for travel expenses … "
Before Lu Yiwei could finish, Fu Jiangsheng had already stood up excitedly. The government employees who were eating at the side put down their chopsticks and listened quietly. They were afraid that they would miss out on the good news if they missed out on a single word.
Lu Yiwei continued, "Also, from next month onwards, as long as you work full time, each person will receive an additional 100 yuan per month. 10 yuan will be deducted for each day you miss out. This will be decided by the office."
"Ah?" Everyone present opened their mouths wide in surprise. They couldn't believe their ears. There was actually such a good benefit. This was something that had never happened before. Before Lu Yiwei finished speaking, some people couldn't wait any longer and ran out of the door. They wanted to share this good news with everyone as soon as possible.
"Good, good, this is great!" Fu Jiangsheng couldn't help but clap his hands. The others also followed suit and clapped with all their might. For the grass-roots employees who earned less than 1,000 yuan per month, it meant a lot to earn more than 100 yuan. No one took Lu Yiwei seriously, but he had brought such a great benefit to the township government. Everyone in the room was impressed and impressed.
On the way back to the office, Song Yong smiled and said to Lu Yiwei, "Yiwei, you have suddenly increased the township government's financial burden. I don't think it will be enough to cover the expenses. If you can't fulfill your promise, how are you going to explain?"
Lu Yiwei knew what was going on and said, "You don't have to worry about the money. I will think of a way. I am very grateful that your brother is taking care of my family. "
"Look at what you're saying. Since you trust me so much, it's not a big deal for me to suffer a little." Song Yong's words were sincere and affectionate. He was grateful for Lu Yiwei's help from the bottom of his heart. If it wasn't for Lu Yiwei, Song Yong would never have this day. From a staff member to a section chief, from a section chief to a township head, Song Yong had achieved what others couldn't achieve in their lifetime. But Song Yong is a straightforward person and doesn't like to express his feelings. But he remembers everything clearly in his heart and will never forget it.
When they passed by an old Volkswagen Santana, Lu Yiwei patted the hood and said, "This is an old car. You have a lot of work to do, and you will lose face if you go out. Change it! After that, make a report to Chief Xiao of Finance and get a new car. If you want to change it, get a new one. Don't save money for Chief Xiao. "
Hearing that Lu Yiwei had considered all aspects, Song Yong felt warm in his heart. He laughed heartily and said, "In this case, I reckon that Chief Xiao will be distressed. Furthermore, you should be the one sitting in the new car. I don't deserve it. If we go to the county for a meeting, who knows what the other towns will say! "
"I don't care what they say. If they are capable, they can change it!" Lu Yiwei replied nonchalantly. "This year's work is very heavy, and I have to go to the City and even the Province frequently. If you drive an old Volkswagen Santana, no one will let you in. That's settled. As for me, the County will give me a car. You don't have to worry about it. " Lu Yiwei was already a County Leader, and he has the rights to enjoy the benefits of a Deputy Division Chief. He can get a Passat, a chauffeur, and a secretary. But Lu Yiwei only wants a car and nothing else.
"Fine. I will make a report after I am done!" Song Yong replied.
Both of them went up to the second floor and brewed some tea. They put aside their work and started chatting. Song Yong sighed. "Yiwei, do you still remember how we met for the first time?"
Lu Yiwei knew what Song Yong was referring to and joked. "Didn't we know each other a long time ago?"
Song Yong replied. "We only knew each other in the past. That was the first time we met."
Zhang Zhiyuan had hired 3 "Talismans" to set up 3 billboards at the entrance of the County, and the border of the County. The billboards were filled with quotes from the leaders of the County. Due to the lack of communication, Song Yong and his men fought with the construction team hired by Lu Yiwei. Zhang Zhiyuan arrived in time and removed Song Yong from his position in a fit of anger. After that, with Lu Yiwei's help, Song Yong was reinstated, and both of them became friends.
"How long ago did you remember? I had forgotten about it." Lu Yiwei purposely said.
"You might have forgotten about it, but I still remember." Song Yong said, "At that time, I didn't know any better, so I fought with you. Who would have thought that you, a great man, wouldn't hold grudges against me, and accidentally became friends with me. Now, I'm your subordinate. Haha, this is fate.
Lu Yiwei laughed. "You are the one who gave me face. If you didn't come, I can't do anything about it. Let's not talk about the past. Let's see what happens in the future. Don't worry. I, Lu Yiwei, will not mistreat you. Once the immigration project is over, I will get Secretary Zhang to promote you! "
Looking at Lu Yiwei's determined eyes, Song Yong knew what he was capable of. He nodded. "Brother Lu, I don't know how to thank you …"
"Stop, stop, stop!" Lu Yiwei saw Song Yong's words and quickly said. "There is no need to thank me between us. We just need to complete the task given by the County. As you can see, there are many people who are unhappy with me, including the people from the Township Government. I don't want to use high-handed methods to establish my authority. On the contrary, if you do them a favor, they will be grateful to you from the bottom of their hearts. From now on, they will need to do a lot of work. How can we handle it with just the few of us? Just focus on managing the organization and let Dakuan handle the finances. Then, I can rest assured. "
"Mr. Lu, are you calling for me?" Gao Dakuan appeared at the door and greeted respectfully.
"Speak of the devil. Haha. Quick, come in. I have something to discuss with you." Lu Yiwei pointed at Gao Dakuan and laughed.
Gao Dakuan entered and placed two cartons of cigarettes under his armpit on the table. "Mr. Lu, I know you like cigarettes, so I got you two cartons. Smoke first. I will bring them to you when you are done. "
Song Yong straightened his neck and saw two cartons of cigarettes. He tutted. "Gao Dakuan, you sure are hiding money. You have Mr. Lu's. Where's mine?"
Gao Dakuan chuckled. "Yours too. It's in my office. I will bring it to you later. Hehe!"
"That's more like it."
