Li Rui smiled and said, "You may not have a high rank, but you have quite the authority. Let me tell you, we are from the county's Discipline Inspection and Investigation Bureau. We are here to investigate your embezzlement of the funds for the poor. "
The man was stunned and took a long time to recover. He looked at Li Rui, then at Song Chaoyang and Du Minsheng and said, "Are you serious?" Then, he thought of something and stretched out his hand. "If you want to say that, then show me your work permits."
Li Rui said, "Who would carry their work permits around? Answer my questions honestly."
The man muttered, "Your accent doesn't sound like someone from our county. You don't have a work permit to prove your identity. Why should I believe you? Besides, who embezzled the funds for the poor? Don't slander a good person. "
Song Chaoyang couldn't be bothered to waste time here. He ordered Li Rui, "Xiao Rui, call the county's Secretary and Mayor. Tell them to get here in half an hour."
Li Rui agreed. He took out the address book in his briefcase and walked out of the office to make the call.
The county's Secretary looked at Song Chaoyang in shock and said, "You … What are you doing? How dare you set a time limit for the county's leaders? You … You don't want to work here anymore, do you? "
Song Chaoyang couldn't help but laugh. He had to admit that traveling incognito was a lot of fun. Not only could he see the overall situation from an ordinary person's point of view, but he could also play the role of a "real person" at a crucial moment. It was very thrilling to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger. It was no wonder that ancient emperors liked to travel incognito.
Li Rui quickly finished his call and returned to Song Chaoyang.
Song Chaoyang ordered again, "Tell the county's Secretary to get all the county's committee members who are at home to come here. I want to hold a public hearing here today."
Li Rui acknowledged and called the county's Secretary again.
The secretary finally felt that something was wrong. He looked at Song Chaoyang in horror and said, "You … you … who are you?"
Song Chaoyang said, "You don't need to know who I am. If you're smart, answer my question quickly. Don't wait until the public hearing."
The village secretary said in fear, "How can I answer your question? Oh, you're asking about the distribution of poverty alleviation supplies. That … that was distributed according to the list of poor families in each village. However, the county gave out very little supplies, so we couldn't distribute them all. So, we could only give some money to those who didn't receive any. We are also very helpless, but there is absolutely no black screen in this, really … "
Song Chaoyang sneered and said, "Did you already think of this excuse to deal with the county's investigation?"
The village secretary shook his head like a rattle-drum. "Of course not. I'm telling the truth. Really … you, where are you from? You can even order the county's leaders around?"
Song Chaoyang didn't answer and asked again, "A while ago, the province allocated a special fund for poverty alleviation. Your village received 150,000 yuan. Let me ask you now, where did the 150,000 yuan go?"
The village secretary broke out in a cold sweat. He thought to himself, who is this guy? Why is he asking me all these questions? How am I supposed to answer? He said hesitantly, "That … that 150,000 yuan … I … I haven't thought of how to use it yet. It's still in the finance department's account …"
Song Chaoyang sneered and asked, "Really?"
The village secretary avoided his gaze and said, "Yes, it's definitely true."
Song Chaoyang asked, "If that's the case, why don't you give a direct answer to the people and officials when they ask about the 150,000 yuan? Moreover, that batch of funds has already been allocated by the province, city, and county. Why hasn't your village used it yet? Why? Are you saving it in the bank and waiting for interest? "
The village secretary hummed and said, "The main reason is that we haven't decided how to use the 150,000 yuan, so we can't explain it to the public. We don't want to be targeted …"
Song Chaoyang secretly sneered. He was afraid that only the last part of his sentence was correct. He was afraid that he would be targeted by others. If that happened, he wouldn't be able to get anything out of it. Song Chaoyang said, "I'll believe you for the time being. But if I get someone to check the finance department later and they can't find the 150,000, you will have to bear the responsibility for your words."
The village secretary was so nervous that he was about to cry. He said, "Who … who are you?"
At this moment, Li Rui came back from a phone call and interrupted, "You don't even know the Municipal Party Committee's secretary?"
"The Municipal Party Committee's secretary?!"
After hearing that, the township secretary jumped up directly. His face was full of disbelief. His mouth opened so wide that it could swallow a train.
Song Chaoyang ordered, "Quickly call your village head and ask him to come back for a meeting. You two are the main characters of today's public trial!"
The village secretary asked in fear, "You … you're really the Municipal Party Committee's secretary? Why would the Municipal Party Committee's secretary suddenly come to our village? Why aren't you accompanied by any of the county leaders? "
Li Rui urged, "Don't say anything else. Call the village head and ask him to come back for a meeting. You're not allowed to reveal our situation here. Otherwise, you'll be punished even more."
The village secretary didn't dare to disobey the three people's powerful auras. He trembled as he took out his phone and called the village head.
After he finished the call, Song Chaoyang ordered, "Prepare the financial data related to poverty alleviation in your village this year. Financial data is finance, material is material. You'll report it later at the meeting."
The village secretary's face darkened when he heard that. He looked like a constipated patient who had been squatting in a pit for three days and three nights without success. He said bitterly, "I … I'm not very clear about the financial data related to poverty alleviation. It's all in Village Head Liu's hands."
He was basically pushing the blame to Village Head Liu He. At first, it sounded reasonable. After all, he was the Party Committee's secretary and might not be in charge of poverty alleviation. But in reality, as the class monitor of the Wuge village leadership, he was at least clear about the distribution of poverty alleviation. After all, the distribution had to be decided after a discussion at the meeting.
Song Chaoyang understood this, but he didn't point it out on the spot. He said calmly, "When Village Head Liu comes, ask him to prepare."
After he said this, Song Chaoyang, Du Minsheng, and Li Rui found seats in the room and sat down, waiting for Village Head Liu He and the county leadership to arrive.
The three of them sat down, but the village secretary didn't dare to sit. He was like a wooden stake beside the table. He didn't dare to look at the three of them. He just stared at the ground in a daze. He scratched his ears and cheeks occasionally, like a student who did something wrong and was punished by the teacher.
The scene was very funny, and the atmosphere was very strange!
After waiting for ten minutes, Village Head Liu He came back first. He went straight to the village secretary's office and shouted, "Old Zhao, what's the meeting? Why did you call me back so urgently? I just got to the reservoir and got the storekeeper Old Wang to catch a few big carps for me to braise. We can have a good meal at noon. I haven't tasted the fish from the reservoir for a long time. I'm dying of craving … "
When the Township Secretary heard his words, his jaw almost dropped. He thought to himself, Liu He, you're really courting death. You didn't even look at who's sitting in the room and dared to say such words. He secretly glanced at Song Chaoyang and the other two. Seeing that the three of them didn't have any angry expressions, he was slightly relieved.
Liu He walked to the table and saw Song Chaoyang and the other two from the corner of his eyes. He glanced at them one by one, but he didn't recognize any of them. He didn't take it to heart and said to the village secretary with a smile, "Hey, you don't say. The Buick is awesome. The engine is really good. When I drove the Jeep up the slope of the reservoir dam, I didn't need to refuel it. Tsk tsk, it's really f * cking cool.
I really regret it two years ago … "The village secretary was speechless when he saw him talking so happily. The Municipal Party Committee's Secretary was already here, and Liu He was still bragging about the car's performance. Wasn't he just courting death? The Municipal Party Committee's Secretary didn't need to find fault with him. Just the fact that he didn't work during working hours and went to the reservoir to play was enough to remove his village head hat. Moreover, the origin of his Jeep wasn't so glorious. Sigh, it's over. It's over today. Neither of us can escape.
"You bought a Buick Jeep? How much did it cost? "
Song Chaoyang suddenly asked Liu He with a smile on his face, full of kindness.
Liu He turned to look at him. Although he didn't know him, he couldn't help but want to brag in front of him. He said, "It cost more than 280,000 yuan. If you add a few more tens of thousands, you can buy an Audi. But it's really worth it. Not only is the performance good, but it's also very prestigious. People think it's a business car worth 300,000 or 400,000 yuan, hehe."
Song Chaoyang smiled and continued to ask, "How long have you bought it?"
Liu He didn't doubt him and answered readily, "I bought it less than a month ago. It's the first car in our village. Even in the county, there are only a few."
Song Chaoyang asked again, "As a village head, how much do you earn a month? How can you afford a Jeep?"
Liu He was laughing, but when he heard this, his face changed. He looked at him coldly and said, "Why do you care how much my salary is? What does it have to do with you whether I can afford it or not? What do you do? "After that, he asked the village secretary," Old Zhao, what do these people do? "
The village secretary was already feeling sad because of the huge pressure brought by Song Chaoyang and the others. Now that he saw Liu He being so arrogant and attracting hatred for himself, he couldn't help but gloat. He said, "Village Head Liu, how can you speak to the Secretary in such a tone? Don't you know that this is the Municipal Party Committee's Secretary? "
