"Lu Yiwei asked you to go to the Poverty Alleviation Office. Did he really say that?" Guo Zhenbiao was surprised to hear the news.
Hu Guoxing nodded. "Yes. I was stunned. Cousin, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing? "
"Uh …" Guo Zhenbiao leaned back in his chair and stared at the calendar on the table. His fingers tapped rhythmically on it. He asked, "I asked you to pay him a favor two days ago. How did it go?"
"I gave him fifty thousand yuan and he accepted it."
"Oh." Guo Zhenbiao did not know what Lu Yiwei was planning. "I asked you to find out more about Lu Yiwei. How is it going?"
Hu Guoxing said, "I got the basic information. His family does not seem to have any background. He is just an honest farmer. His promotion mainly depended on Zhang Zhiyuan, the former Secretary of the County party committee in Nanyang County. Now he is transferred to the Provincial Enterprise Reform Leading Group. His wife's father is Fan Rongkui, the Deputy Minister of the Publicity Department of the Provincial Party Committee. His ability is average, but he has a special relationship with Yang Tongyao, the CEO of Hongtai Group. In addition, Lu Yiwei's sister's husband is from a prominent family. His mother has just been promoted to the Deputy Mayor of Dongzhou City. "
"Oh. Seems like this kid is not simple! " Guo Zhenbiao knocked on the table. "I am confused. Why would someone with such a good background come to our Black Mountain County?"
"Uh … I don't know."
Guo Zhenbiao leaned forward and asked, "Are you sure you can pull him to our side?"
"Uh … it's hard to say." Hu Guoxing said, "Don't think this kid is young. His ability and connections are no less than Yan Bugao and Jin Rongguang. Some time ago, because of the Maihe Reservoir incident, he bypassed the city and went to the neighboring province to negotiate. It was said that he was the one who planned the incident. "
"Oh." Guo Zhenbiao frowned and analyzed the current situation. It was not only his idea to transfer Hu Guoxing out of the county's First High School. Yan Bugao had wanted to do it for a long time, but he was pressured by Guo Zhenbiao. Could it be Yan Bugao's idea? If it was him, it would be fine. But it was not that simple.
"Cousin, what should we do? Say something," Hu Guoxing said anxiously.
Guo Zhenbiao looked at Hu Guoxing with disgust and scolded, "I've already told you to restrain yourself and not be so insolent, but you fucking didn't listen and made the school a mess. Now, someone has their eyes on you. Do you think you can refuse? "
Hu Guoxing panicked and said with a pleading look, "Cousin, you can't just sit back and watch. To be honest, I've wanted to leave First High for a long time, but I'm afraid that those bastards will expose me after I leave. If that happens, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my position. "
"That's fine." Guo Zhenbiao said calmly, "I'll give them a few guts. Whoever dares to come out, I'll shoot him."
With Guo Zhenbiao's words, Hu Guoxing felt much more at ease.
"The Poverty Alleviation Office is actually not bad." Guo Zhenbiao thought for a while and said, "In the past two years, there have been more and more allocations for various projects. I can consider it, but just the position of director of the Poverty Alleviation Office is far from enough. Uh … "
Seeing that Guo Zhenbiao was deep in thought, Hu Guoxing was nervous and sweating profusely.
"You do this." Guo Zhenbiao came up with an idea and said, "If Lu Yiwei asks you again, tell him that you want to go to the Council of Agriculture and take up the post of director of the Poverty Alleviation Office. If he doesn't agree, ignore him and do what you need to do."
"This … Will this work?" Hu Guoxing felt that Guo Zhenbiao's demands were a little too high.
This was the effect that Guo Zhenbiao wanted. He said, "Why not? Since we're going to transfer, we have to maximize the benefits. What's so good about just the Poverty Alleviation Office? Just do as I say."
"Alright then." Hu Guoxing was good at playing with women, but he was a complete noob when it came to politics. Whenever he encountered a problem, he would discuss it with Guo Zhenbiao. If it wasn't for this "cousin", he would probably have left long ago.
Before Hu Guoxing left, Guo Zhenbiao warned him with a dark face, "Regardless of whether this matter is successful or not, you better clean up your mess first. Don't let others get hold of you, do you hear me?"
"Okay, okay, I'll do it right away."
The city-wide key projects promotion meeting was held in the conference room on the fifth floor of the Municipal Party Committee. At the beginning of the year, the province required each city to start construction of at least ten projects, and the first results should be seen in the same year. The city then assigned this task to each city and county. It was already more than half a year, but the situation in the city was not optimistic. Therefore, this meeting was held urgently.
Mayor Li Jianye reported the progress of the key projects in each city and county, and criticized several counties, including Heishan County. Then, Guo Jinzhu spoke. After so many years, Guo Jinzhu was still hot-tempered. His spittle flew everywhere, and he was full of vulgarities. He slammed the table, and the hall was so quiet that only his voice could be heard. The reporters at the side stood awkwardly with cameras in their hands, not knowing how to capture the scene.
"Some of our comrades are simply outrageous. The work that has been arranged has not been carried out yet. What do you mean? Do you want to quit? If you don't want to quit, just say it now. There are plenty of people … After the meeting, I will arrange for the Municipal Party Committee's inspection team to conduct inspections. If any county fails to carry out the work, they will be criticized for the first time, and dismissed for the second time. Don't be so shameless … "Guo Jinzhu scolded, and the people below lowered their heads and listened quietly.
"Are the people in charge of the counties that Mayor Li mentioned here yet?" Guo Jinzhu's face darkened as he scanned the room. He swept his gaze around and didn't find Yan Bugao's figure. Just as he was about to explode in anger, he saw Lu Yiwei and endured it. "After the meeting, report the situation of these counties. I want to see it. I will give you one month. After a month, I will conduct inspections. If any of the counties have not started work, get lost! "
After the meeting was over, everyone sighed and complained to the heavens. Jin Rongguang quickened his pace to catch up with Mayor Li Jianye and entered the office.
"Mayor Li, you know the situation in Heishan County. It is good enough to maintain normal operations, let alone construction. The county has no money. What do you want me to do? "Jin Rongguang complained.
Li Jianye had just been appointed as the Mayor from the Municipal Party Committee's Deputy Secretary. He knew the situation in Heishan County very well. He comforted Jin Rongguang. "Old Jin, I know what you are talking about. But this is a project set by the province. There is nothing I can do. If there are difficulties, we can overcome them. But there is no sign of construction. This is your fault. Don't blame Secretary Guo for being angry. If it was me, I would also scold you. "
Jin Rongguang sat on the sofa helplessly. "Mayor Li, I will make a request again. I hope the Municipal Party Committee will consider it carefully and transfer me out of Heishan County as soon as possible. I am willing to take up the position of Deputy Bureau Chief."
"Old Jin! How can you do this? " Li Jianye was a little angry. "You have brought this up more than once. Why can't you understand my painstaking efforts? If Secretary Guo finds out about this, I'm afraid you won't even be a Deputy Bureau Chief anymore! Let's not talk about this anymore. If you really don't want to do it, just tell Secretary Guo. "
Jin Rongguang lay on the sofa weakly. "Mayor Li, it's not that I don't want to do it. The problem is that the situation in Heishan County is too complicated. The cause of the previous Old Wang's death is still unknown. I'm afraid … "
"Stop it!" Li Jianye was a little angry. "Heishan County is not governed well. What's the point of telling me? Don't you have any responsibility as the Mayor? Just Guo Zhenbiao alone can scare you to this extent. Do you have any shame? "
"As long as the City removes Guo Zhenbiao, I will not mention it again." Jin Rongguang said.
"Old Jin!" Li Jianye said earnestly, "Although the city has the authority to do so, no one dares to touch him. Guo Zhenbiao has eyes and ears everywhere. Two days ago, Secretary Guo was in Beijing for a meeting, and someone even told him to take care of him. How can he be touched? You do your job, and he will do his. Just don't clash with him. "
Jin Rongguang was unwilling to give up and said, "Then transfer him away or directly transfer him to the city. This person is really dangerous."
"If there was a way, it would have been done long ago." Li Jianye said. "Last year, I asked him to be an executive officer in Shifeng County, but he was unwilling. He refused to go anywhere except Heishan County. Let's wait for a while. I think Secretary Guo will take care of it. "
"Sigh …"
There were many people who saw Guo Jinzhu. The waiting room was packed with people. When Secretary Cao Xiaofei saw Lu Yiwei, he specially arranged for him to sit at the front. When it was his turn, Lu Yiwei quickly got up and walked in.
"Oh, it's Yiwei." Guo Jinzhu saw Lu Yiwei, and his frown finally eased. He pointed to the chair in front of the desk. "Come and sit here."
After Lu Yiwei sat down, Guo Jinzhu grabbed the pack of cigarettes on the table. When he found that there were no cigarettes, he crumpled it and threw it aside. Lu Yiwei quickly took out a cigarette, placed it on the table, and lit it.
Guo Jinzhu leaned against the chair and looked at Lu Yiwei. "How's it going? Is it easy in Heishan County?"
"It's alright." Lu Yiwei said respectfully.
"That's good." Guo Jinzhu sat up. "The situation in Heishan County is complicated. Try to keep a low profile. When I had a meal with Zhiyuan two days ago, we talked about you. I wanted to transfer you back, but the provincial government has a document that says you can only be transferred after a year. Then you can work on it first, then come back and work with me, okay? "
Hearing that Guo Jinzhu treated him as one of his own, Lu Yiwei was grateful. "Thank you, Secretary Guo."
"What's the matter?"
"Just a small matter." Lu Yiwei explained the situation in the county.
Guo Jinzhu thought for a while. "Heishan County's college entrance examination this year is really bad. It's time for you to reflect on it. Since you want to integrate the county's education resources, it's a good thing. I agree. As for the public recruitment, I will discuss it with Minister Zhou. I don't think it's possible. We are recruiting a batch of civil servants this year, and the provincial government wants to wait. But your county can recruit a batch of temporary teachers. You can do it yourself. "
"The county's finances are tight …" Lu Yiwei said softly.
Guo Jinzhu thought for a moment, then grabbed the phone on the table and dialed, "Guoqiang, come over now."
After a while, a man walked in. "Secretary Guo, are you looking for me?"
"Guoqiang, is this year's education fund in place?"
The man said. "It should be in two days."
"How much?"
"About 8 million."
"Oh." Guo Jinzhu said. "Take out 2 million and give it to Heishan County."
"Secretary Guo, this …" The man was in a dilemma.
"Just do as I say. I will talk to Mayor Li."
"Okay."
After the man left, Guo Jinzhu said. "This 2 million is a special fund. Don't use it for other projects. Although it's not a lot, it can solve some of the problems, okay?"
