"Yiwei, have a seat!" Yan Bugao got Lu Yiwei to take a seat and smiled. "How was it? Did you drink too much last night?"
Lu Yiwei shook his head. "I'm fine."
"You're indeed a young man. Good!" Yan Bugao said. "Secretary Ren and Mayor Jin will be here later. We will have a meeting to discuss your division of work. Before they come, I'd like to ask for your opinion and see what you think. "
Lu Yiwei replied. "Secretary Yan, you should know that I have just graduated from the Party School, and I am now a Deputy Secretary. I am not familiar with this job, and I will listen to your arrangements."
"It's fine if you are not familiar with it. Tell me what you think." Yan Bugao said. "I heard that you are experienced at the grassroots level, and you have led the people to become rich. Our Black Mountain County needs people like you."
Lu Yiwei quickly waved his hand. "It's all in the past, and it's not worth mentioning. As for my thoughts, I am new here and do not know much about our county. I want to learn more from you. "
"You're being modest!" Yan Bugao said. "Secretary Guo had praised your character and ability in front of me. He even asked me to share your responsibilities. Since Secretary Guo has confirmed it, then you must be right. "
Lu Yiwei smiled. "You're overpraising me."
Seeing Lu Yiwei being cautious, Yan Bugao said. "Since you don't want to say it, then listen to my opinion. Under normal circumstances, the Deputy Secretary was in charge of party affairs. They were more practical than practical, so one person was enough. That's why I do not plan to let you handle Ren Feng's work. Instead, I want you to handle some specific work. The County Government has one Principal and three Deputies, and the workload is heavy. They have been requesting for more manpower, but there has been no response. Can I let you handle the government's work? "
The County party committee and the government have a clear division of work. But the boundaries have always been blurred, and they interfere with each other. Some Party Secretaries were directly in charge of the economy and took over the County Head's work. Some County Heads were directly involved in Party affairs and took over the authority of the Party Secretaries. But this is the first time Lu Yiwei heard of a Deputy County party committee Secretaries handling the government's work.
Yan Bugao saw through Lu Yiwei's concerns and said, "You don't have to feel burdened. The reason why I'm doing this is because of Secretary Guo and Comrade Rongguang. I'll listen to your thoughts now."
This is asking for Rongguang's opinion. Lu Yiwei replied. "I have no opinion. I will follow the organization's arrangement."
"Alright, since you have no objections, then it's settled." As he spoke, he picked up the phone and said, "Get Secretary Ren and Mayor Jin over."
After a while, Jin Rongguang and Ren Feng walked in one after another. Lu Yiwei quickly got up and shook hands with them one by one. Ren Feng was still smiling, but Jin Rongguang was expressionless and only nodded slightly.
"Let's start the meeting." Yan Bugao said. "I have asked for Yiwei's opinion, and he will follow the organization's arrangement. That's it. Rongguang, tell us. "
Jin Rongguang wasn't big. He had a crew cut and his skin was tanned. He was wearing a checkered shirt with a mobile phone hanging from his waist. His pants seemed to be a little short, and a large portion of his white socks was exposed, which was very eye-catching. After he sat down, his strong belly bulged like a rubber ball. His fingers that were holding the cigarette were smoked yellow, and his teeth were almost black. It is obvious that he is a heavy smoker.
Jin Rongguang said. "It is a good thing to let Yiwei take charge of the government's work. It can solve the manpower shortage problem. But this is not a long-term solution. I hope Secretary Yan can talk to the City leaders to fill in the vacancies. "
"Ok. I will keep this in mind." Yan Bugao said. "What do you think Yiwei should be in charge of? You can mention it. "
Jin Rongguang thought for a while and said. "Currently, Mayor Li is in charge of education, culture, and health. Should we take them out?"
"Ok. This is fine." Yan Bugao was not satisfied. "Education and health are mainly in charge of education and health. Mayor Li is a woman. I think she should be in charge of health. Leave education to Yiwei."
"Ok."
Yan Bugao said. "This is what I think. Other than education, let Yiwei contact a few towns and units. What do you think? "
"I have no opinion."
"Oh." Yan Bugao pretended to be deep in thought. In fact, he already had an idea in his heart. He said, "Take out the water conservancy and transportation. Lin Kang Town and Maihe Village will be contacted by Yiwei."
Jin Rongguang looked at Yan Bugao with a complicated expression. "This is not right. Zhenbiao has always been in charge of transportation. What will he think if you take it out?"
"I don't care about this!" Yan Bugao suddenly raised his voice. "This is the County party committee meeting. It is not his place to make irresponsible remarks. You just need to agree."
"I have no opinion. But you will have to explain it to him." Jin Rongguang said with a casual expression.
Yan Bugao said in a serious tone. "How can I say it? You are the County Mayor. You should have the final say in adjusting the division of responsibilities between the governments. It is settled."
Jin Rongguang chose to remain silent.
"Ren Feng, what do you think?" Yan Bugao turned to Ren Feng.
Ren Feng played the role of air. "Since you all agree, I have no opinion."
Yan Bugao made the decision. "Okay. That is it." Then he said to Lu Tianming who was sitting at the side. "Make a summary of today's meeting. Write down the division of responsibilities of Comrade Yiwei. Then distribute it to all units. Meeting dismissed!"
Before leaving, Ren Feng gave Lu Yiwei a meaningful smile. Lu Yiwei found it hard to understand.
Back in the office, Lu Yiwei sat in front of his desk and thought hard. He could see that Yan Bugao and Jin Rongguang did not get along well. But Yan Bugao seemed to be stronger and could control the situation. On the other hand, Ren Feng was like a tiger and did not offend anyone. But they have something in common. They seem to be afraid of Deputy Mayor Guo Zhenbiao. Is he really that powerful?
Through this short meeting, Lu Yiwei further confirmed the "three factions" that Wu Shixun had mentioned to him last night.
Lu Yiwei called his secretary, Zhao Xiaokang, over and asked about Lin Kang Town and Maihe Town.
Zhao Xiaokang said. "Lin Kang Town is located at the southernmost part of Heishan County. It is close to Nanzhou City. There are no industrial and mining industries in the town. Moreover, the environment was complicated, and the people were messy. It was a difficult town listed by the city. Maihe Town is next to Lin Kang Town and is separated by a mountain. It is also a backward town. But there is a reservoir in the town. The people depend on fishing for a living. "
Lu Yiwei sucked in a breath of cold air. What was Yan Bugao thinking? Why did he throw these two difficult towns to him? Wasn't he estimating that there would be problems? Lu Yiwei asked again. "What about transportation and water conservancy?"
Zhao Xiaokang said. "Water conservancy is not complicated. Other than the reservoir, there is flood control every year. After this period, there are no other major issues. Transportation is considered a popular department. It was not good in the past few years. But after the development of the west region, there are more funds. This department is under Deputy Mayor Guo Zhenbiao's charge. "
Lu Yiwei seemed to understand something. Yan Bugao looked at Wen Zhenbiao. Wen Zhenbiao was referring to him as Secretary Guo and handing over the unit that he was in charge of to him. He was clearly trying to drag him into the dispute between them. This move was too sinister. He decided to kick the ball back at Yan Bugao.
When he got up and walked out of the door, he heard someone arguing in Yan Bugao's office. Their voices were loud, and the whole corridor could hear them.
Lu Yiwei was shocked. Who dares to be so arrogant in front of Yan Bugao? He turned and asked Zhao Xiaokang. "Who is in there?"
Zhao Xiaokang retreated behind the door and said softly. "It is Deputy Mayor Guo Zhenbiao."
"Oh." The County party committee meeting had just ended, and Guo Zhenbiao came up to Lu Yiwei to interrogate him. This person is really capable. Lu Yiwei stood at the door and listened for a while. He returned to his office and closed the door. "Who is Guo Zhenbiao? Has he always been like this? "
Zhao Xiaokang said timidly. "Secretary Lu, there are some things I dare not say … …"
"What are you afraid of? What is there to be afraid of? Speak!"
Zhao Xiaokang said. "Guo Zhenbiao is from Black Mountain County. In the 1980s, he was an employee of the grain station under the Grain Bureau. He made a fortune by selling grain. After that, the Grain Bureau went into a slump, and he decided to stop paying his salary. During this period, he dares to do anything. I heard that he planted tobacco in Wheat River Village and set up casinos. He became one of the most powerful people in Black Mountain County. Now that he had money, he wanted to return to politics, so he easily came back. He has been the Deputy Chief of the Grain Bureau, Deputy Chief of the Transportation Bureau, Deputy Chief of the Land Bureau, and now he is the Deputy County Mayor. When he was in the Land Bureau, he controlled all the land in the county. He can grant land to anyone he wants and sell it to anyone he wants. Even now, he has the final say on the land in Black Mountain County. People call him the 'Lord of the Land' in private. "
"Guo Zhenbiao is like this, and his son Guo Wenkai is even worse. He is the tyrant of Black Mountain County. He owns all the entertainment venues in the county, and no one dares to stop him. Especially after he joined forces with the other tyrant, Zhang Dongzi, he became even more lawless. The whole county is in a state of panic. No one dares to mention his name. Everyone is afraid of him. "
Lu Yiwei had a preliminary impression of Guo Zhenbiao after listening to him. This kind of person is a disgrace to his reputation as the Deputy County Mayor. Does Guo Jinzhu not know about this? He asked. "Do Secretary Yan and Mayor Jin know about this?"
"Of course." Zhao Xiaokang said. "You have seen it for yourself. Guo Zhenbiao does not care about Secretary Yan at all. He even slammed the table and scolded Mayor Jin. He signed the contract without hesitation. If he didn't sign it, who knows what his son will do. "
"He is too arrogant!" Lu Yiwei clenched his fist angrily.
