After the villagers signed the letter of responsibility, the large number of police officers stationed in Dongshui Village left one by one. However, the police station in Dongshui Village still left people in the village to monitor the villagers' every word and action. This was especially true for the villagers who were the most agitated and who had organized a group action. At the same time, they were also the families who had suffered the most from the environmental pollution. Someone in their family had either died or contracted cancer. The police station was very strict with this kind of people. They had people guarding the door 24 hours a day. They were not even allowed to go out to buy groceries.
This was what had happened last night and this morning. Originally, the situation had been strictly limited to the small village of Dongshui Village by the Northern District Government and the District Public Security Bureau. Even if it did, it would only spread a little within the administrative area of Dongshui Village. It would not spread to the whole district or even the whole city, let alone to the ears of the city leaders. However, the world was so strange. The more you wanted to hide something, the more it would spread to other people's ears. The things you wanted the whole world to know about would not spread at all. This morning, someone called Du Minsheng, the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee, to report the situation to him.
Although this incident didn't seem serious on the surface, and even the Northern District Government was complacent and thought that they had completely suppressed this incident, Du Minsheng, who had been in the officialdom for a long time, could clearly see that this incident wasn't dealt with cleanly. It was like a lit powder pack. Although it was temporarily buried in the ground, and the sparks and smoke produced when it was ignited couldn't be seen, the fuse was still not extinguished. As long as it burned to the end, it would still cause a huge explosion. When the time came, none of the people who buried this powder pack would be able to escape, and it might even implicate more people. The Northern District Government was deceiving themselves by doing this. Therefore, he rushed to Song Chaoyang's office early in the morning to report the incident to him.
Li Rui sighed disdainfully after hearing this. He did not know which leader of the Northern District Government was in charge of this incident. How could he be so short-sighted, so lazy, and so childish? Was he trying to solve the problem or incite the people's dissatisfaction with the government? Even a lowly secretary like himself knew that dealing with this kind of situation was like dealing with a flood. He could only guide the flow, but not block it. Why didn't those experienced officials know this? Was it because of the huge benefits involved, or did they simply not put the common people in their eyes?
Suddenly Song Chaoyang let out a cold laugh twice and said, "Asking the Public Security Bureau to send people to surround the village, this is simply unheard of. Whose idea was it?" Du Minsheng said, "Shibei District Mayor Zhao Xiaotao." Song Chaoyang snorted and said, "I'm guessing it's him. If it's anyone else, the Public Security Bureau won't buy it." Du Minsheng said, "I don't know what he's thinking. Although he's temporarily solved the mass copycat incident, he's exacerbated social conflicts and planted a seed of disaster. He didn't even solve the problem from the root. His way of dealing with it is arbitrary and violent. It's not good."
Song Chaoyang nodded and turned his head to order Li Rui, "Immediately call Zhao Xiaotao and tell him to come to the Municipal Party Committee in half an hour. I want to see him. Hmph, if he doesn't give me a reason today, I won't let him off easily. "
Li Rui heard this and immediately took out the contact list of the municipal government agencies from his briefcase. After finding Zhao Xiaotao's name, he used his work phone to call his office's landline. The phone rang for a long time but no one answered. Li Rui had no choice but to call his work phone. This time, the call finally went through.
On the other end of the line was a steady and magnetic middle-aged man's voice, "Hello, is this the Municipal Party Committee?" Li Ruixin praised him for being smart and being able to identify the caller from the phone number. However, this was a necessary skill for most leaders. It wasn't really a skill. He said, "Is this Mayor Zhao?" The man on the other end of the line quickly said, "I am. Hello, is this Director Li from the Municipal Party Committee's General Office?" Li Rui was in front of Song Chaoyang and Du Minsheng, so he didn't have time to talk nonsense with him. He said, "Yes, it's me. The Secretary is looking for you. Please come over." Zhao Xiaotao was shocked when he heard this and quickly asked, "What's the matter? Director Li, is it convenient for you to take a breather? "Li Rui said," You'll know when you come over. Goodbye. "After that, he hung up the phone.
Song Chaoyang asked him to tell Zhao Xiaotao to come over within half an hour. However, he didn't say this because he knew that even if he didn't say this, Zhao Xiaotao, as the Mayor, would come over as soon as he was summoned by the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Who would dare to make their superiors wait for so long?
After the phone call, the three of them left Qingyang Hotel and went to work at the Municipal Party Committee. Although today was Saturday, the three of them were busy every day. They might not even be able to finish working overtime, let alone not working overtime. Therefore, as long as the conditions allowed, they would try to work overtime on weekends.
Not long after Li Rui sat down in his office, the Mayor of the Northern District, Zhao Xiaotao, rushed over. He quickly got up to greet him.
Zhao Xiaotao was nervous when he saw the First Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. He walked up to him and reached out to shake his hand. He begged in a low voice, "Director Li, can you tell me what's going on?"
Li Rui looked at him blankly and said, "I'm not sure. You'll know when you go in. Please wait a moment. I'll go talk to the Secretary. "After that, he turned and walked to the door.
Zhao Xiaotao saw that he didn't want to say anything. He didn't know if he really didn't know or if he knew but didn't want to tell him. The former was possible, but the latter wasn't impossible. If it was the latter, then the water was deep. Thinking of this, he became more and more nervous and felt uncomfortable.
After Li Rui went into the room to report, Song Chaoyang said, "Let him in."
Li Rui went out again and invited Zhao Xiaotao in.
Zhao Xiaotao walked into the room uneasily. He looked up and saw Song Chaoyang sitting at his desk, staring at him. Although he couldn't see any expression on Song Chaoyang's face, he vaguely guessed that it wasn't anything good. He was a little scared and forced a smile and said, "Good morning, Secretary!"
Song Chaoyang didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "How do you plan to solve the problem in Dongshui Village?" Zhao Xiaotao was startled and said, "The problem in Dongshui Village? What problem in Dongshui Village? Dongshui Village is fine. It's very good. The village is peaceful and the villagers live and work in peace and contentment … "Song Chaoyang frowned and waved his hand to stop him. He said," Don't give me a high-sounding speech. If Dongshui Village was peaceful and peaceful, why did you send a large group of people to surround the village? " Zhao Xiaotao pretended to be enlightened and said, "Oh, Secretary, you're talking about yesterday. That … that was just a small matter. It was a misunderstanding. It's fine after the misunderstanding was cleared up. The district has already dealt with it properly. It's fine now."
"It's fine now?"
Song Chaoyang repeated this sentence with a mocking smile on his face.
Zhao Xiaotao nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, it's fine now. Secretary, you can rest assured that the district won't make you worry about such a small matter. You're busy with official business and have to deal with a myriad of affairs every day. It's already … "Song Chaoyang waved his hand again and interrupted his meaningless nonsense. He said," What do you mean when you say it's fine now? All the problems have been solved? "Zhao Xiaotao nodded and said," Yes, all the problems have been solved. The factories involved are operating normally, the people are living in harmony and stability, the government agencies are operating as usual, everything is back to normal, all the problems have been solved, there is nothing to worry about now. "Song Chaoyang said," Are you sure all the problems have been solved? What if there are more problems? "
Zhao Xiaotao smiled and said, "All the problems have been solved. How could there be more problems? Haha. " After saying this, he saw Song Chaoyang looking at him with a cold and solemn expression. He was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. He quickly stopped smiling and said with an embarrassed expression, "If … if there are more problems, then I … as the district chief, I must bear the corresponding responsibility. But Secretary, I dare to swear on my party spirit that there won't be any more problems. " Song Chaoyang looked at him deeply and suddenly waved his hand. He said, "Okay, I know. You can go back to work." Zhao Xiaotao felt as if he had been pardoned. He secretly let out a long sigh and bowed with a smile. He said, "Okay, then … Secretary, I'll go back first. Call me if you need anything. I promise I'll be there." After saying this, he took a few steps back and walked out when he was almost at the door.
Li Rui had been in the room the whole time. When he saw Zhao Xiaotao leave, he didn't send him off. He just looked at his boss and saw his gloomy face looking at the door for a long time without saying anything. He knew that he was extremely dissatisfied with Zhao Xiaotao's performance.
After a long time, Song Chaoyang came back to his senses and said, "Xiao Rui, from Zhao Xiaotao's response just now, I realized that I overestimated him. I originally thought that he sent a large number of police officers to surround the village to control the villagers and prevent them from ganging up. After that, he would take the time to investigate the root of the problem and give the villagers justice. He would solve the problem from the root. Although this is a bit arbitrary and crude, if he could solve the problem and avoid ganging up, I can accept it. On the contrary, I would think that Zhao Xiaotao is bold and responsible. But now it seems that he isn't trying to solve the problem at all. Instead, he is suppressing and covering up the problem. Hmph, it's no wonder that some of the members of the Northern District are dissatisfied with him and complained to the Secretary-General. His handling of this matter is really cold. "
