Thinking of this, Li Rui said to Ji Chengsheng, "Don't worry, Mr. Ji. I'll take care of this matter. I'll definitely get justice for you. You just sit in my office and wait. I'll ask the County Magistrate about this matter and see how to solve it. I promise I won't let you suffer any losses. "
Ji Chengsheng was desperate. Before he found this new Deputy County Magistrate, he didn't even have the slightest expectation that the Deputy County Magistrate would be able to solve the problem. He didn't even dare to hope that the Deputy County Magistrate would be willing to help. Who would have thought that the Deputy County Magistrate would agree to help after hearing what he said? This was beyond his expectations. He was so happy that his eyes turned red.
"County Magistrate Li, thank you. Thank you so much. I didn't expect that you could really help. I … I don't know how to thank you. How about this? As long as you can help me get back the 10 million deposit, I'll give you half of it as a reward. Let's become friends. As for the 1 million I spent to register the company, I'll just treat it as a waste! "
Li Rui was about to step out of the office when he heard what Ji Chengsheng said. He stopped and said with a serious face, "Mr. Ji, the reason why I'm willing to help you is that I can't watch an innocent boss like you get cheated. The second reason is to clean up the corrupt business environment in the county. The third reason is to improve the service atmosphere of the county leaders. I'm not asking for a reward. You're insulting me by saying that you'll give me money. I hope you won't mention it again. Okay, wait for me. "After he finished speaking, he hurriedly walked out.
Ji Chengsheng watched him leave with shame and admiration. He praised in a low voice, "This is a good official! Why didn't I meet such a good leader earlier? "
… …
"Hey, County Magistrate Li, you want to see the County Magistrate, right? I'll let you know … "
Outside the county magistrate's office, the county magistrate's secretary saw Li Rui striding to the door of the office as if he was going to break in without knocking. He was shocked and hurried forward to stop him in case he bumped into Chen Kui who was working in the office. In the end, he would be criticized.
Li Rui didn't really want to barge in without knocking. He just wanted to give the secretary a feeling that "County Magistrate Li is very anxious". He wanted him to go in and report to Chen Kui as soon as possible so that he wouldn't waste time or even make excuses. In this regard, Li Rui, who had been a secretary for many years, was very familiar with this. He stopped and nodded expressionlessly. "Sorry to trouble you."
The secretary said, "It's no trouble." He walked to the door and knocked. When he heard Chen Kui's voice, he raised his voice and said, "County Magistrate Li has something urgent to see you."
"Let him in!" Chen Kui's voice sounded from inside the door. He seemed to deliberately let Li Rui hear him, so he said it very loudly.
Li Rui smiled faintly. Zhang Wei said that Chen Kui was not only honest but also clever. Sure enough, he was so obvious that he was trying to curry favor with him. Wasn't he afraid that he wouldn't notice his friendliness? After the secretary opened the door, he strode in.
Inside the office, Chen Kui saw Li Rui enter the office and stood up to welcome him. He said with a smile, "County Magistrate Li, you've just been appointed and you're already so diligent. You come to my office almost every day. You're so hardworking. I want to learn from you. Please sit down and tell me what you need. Don't hesitate to tell me if you need my help. "As he spoke, he went around the desk and waved his hand to invite Li Rui to sit down.
Li Rui didn't sit down and said straightforwardly, "You're welcome, County Magistrate. I really have something to ask of you." He told him about Ji Chengsheng's tragic experience and finally said, "I want to know why the County's' Chunhua Road Old City Renovation Project 'hasn't been approved yet. Also, if the project really can't be approved, shouldn't the County compensate Ji Chengsheng? At the very least, the County should return the security deposit that he paid, right? "
"Uh, this …" Chen Kui pondered for a while, "The Chunhua Road Old City Renovation Project is one of the projects that I've been focusing on after I became the County Magistrate. According to the original plan, the project was indeed handed over to Ji Chengsheng's company to operate. But who knew that before the project was approved, this project was leaked out. In order to get more compensation, the residents of Chunhua Road Old City Renovation Project started to build two-story and even three-story buildings on their roofs. This seriously affected the statistics of the demolition funds and other important procedures. The County Planning Bureau, Construction Bureau, Demolition Office, and other units sent their staff to stop and persuade the residents, but the residents didn't listen at all. They even violently resisted the law enforcement. This matter became more and more serious. The relevant departments were so disheartened that they stopped the project. "
Li Rui only believed half of what he said because there were many flaws in it. Not to mention other things, it was unbelievable that the government couldn't deal with the residents of Chunhua Road Old City Renovation Project. The residents of Chunhua Road Old City Renovation Project were illegal, and the Planning Bureau and Demolition Office couldn't do anything about it. Wasn't this a big joke? Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't expose him. He just asked calmly, "Then why did the County Government send a letter to Ji Chengsheng's company a month ago saying that his company didn't get the development rights of this project?"
Chen Kui said, "Uh, it should be that the staff who wrote this letter didn't know the inside story, so they gave the wrong reason."
Li Ruixin was secretly angry. The County Government had issued such a letter that insulted human intelligence. He didn't know how much psychological damage it had caused to Ji Chengsheng and his company's staff. In the end, when it came to the County Magistrate, Chen Kui, he downplayed it. Wasn't this too shameless? He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "If that's the case, then we have to return the ten million yuan deposit that Ji Chengsheng paid! We also have to compensate Ji Chengsheng for the expenses of the company he registered. Although Ji Chengsheng said that he didn't have to do it, our government must be fair and honest. Otherwise, if this matter spreads out, which investor would dare to invest in Shuanghe? "
"Hiss …"
Chen Kui gasped and looked at him with a painful and helpless expression. He said, "That ten million yuan deposit, it's a little … a little difficult to return."
Li Rui was surprised and asked, "What's so difficult about it?" After he said that, he thought of something and asked in disbelief, "Could it be that the County Government has already embezzled the ten million yuan?"
Chen Kui smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, after the ten million yuan deposit was handed over to the County Government, it was embezzled in the same month. You also know that Shuanghe is a national-level poor county. The County Government's finances are especially tight. Just a little bit of money is snatched from all sides. Now, there's not a single cent left. It's impossible to return it."
Li Rui said in an agitated tone, "Even if we can't return it, we still have to return it. Can we just drag it out and not return it if we can't return it? Especially Ji Chengsheng. We have to return it to him as soon as possible. Investment promotion is our Shuanghe County's gateway to the outside world. If we lose our promise and credibility, then we can only close the door and play by ourselves. No poor county can play by itself and become rich. Many poor villages in the mountains are living examples. "
Chen Kui saw that Li Rui was talking to him in such a tone. His face showed displeasure, but he quickly hid it and nodded. He returned to his desk and sat down. He said, "I'll call the Finance Bureau and ask if the County Government still has money. Can they take out ten million yuan to return to Ji Chengsheng first?" As he spoke, he pretended to reach for the landline.
Li Rui became more and more angry. He really wanted to scold, "Chen Kui, stop pretending. As the County Government's County Government's County Government, how could you not know how much money is left in the County Government's County Government? If the Deputy County Government's County Government said that, it would be reasonable. But as the County Government's County Government, you're acting in front of me! " He knew that if he made this call, regardless of whether the County Government's County Government had money or not, he would only hear "Sorry, there's no more money." This was because he acted like he was dragging it out. In any case, Ji Chengsheng couldn't do anything to him or the County Government. Could Ji Chengsheng really sue the County Government? Even if he did, the County Government's County Government would not help him.
Chen Kui quickly finished the call. After he put down the receiver, he looked at Li Rui and said, "The County Government's County Government's County Government only has about two hundred thousand yuan, and it's all earmarked for poverty alleviation. It can't be moved, so there's no other way. We can't return Ji Chengsheng the money now."
Li Rui had already expected this result, so he wasn't surprised at all. He said calmly, "If you can't return the money, then think of a way. See if you can repay Ji Chengsheng from other sources. Isn't Ji Chengsheng in the real estate development business? See if there's any old town renovation project in the County that can be given to him. It depends on whether he's willing to accept it or not. "
Chen Kui shook his head and said, "There's no more. Currently, there are only three old town renovation projects in the County. Two of them are already under construction, and one of them has already been taken over by a company. We really can't give it to Ji Chengsheng. County Magistrate Li, don't be anxious. There will be a solution to this matter. You should go back first. At the same time, comfort Ji Chengsheng. The County will return the money to him as soon as possible. "
If Li Rui was a three-year-old child, he might have believed him. However, Li Rui wasn't a child, so he didn't believe him at all. Oh, the County's Treasury only had 200,000 yuan (according to Chen Kui's calculation, no matter how much money there was, Chen Kui didn't plan to return it to Ji Chengsheng), and he wasn't willing to compensate Ji Chengsheng with other projects. He even said that he would return the money to him as soon as possible. Wasn't this just fooling a silly boy?
"How about this, County Magistrate? Since the County doesn't have the money and there's no other old town renovation project to compensate Ji Chengsheng, then let me think of a way. However, I have to say this first. If I think of a reasonable and legal way to compensate Ji Chengsheng, then let me think of a way.
Chen Kui smiled and said, "What are you talking about? If there's a good way to compensate us, then I will definitely accept it. How can I refuse? Do you think the County Government will act shamelessly and not return the money? But I would like to hear what you have in mind. "
Li Rui shook his head and said, "I don't have any ideas now. I'm new here, and I don't know anything. I can't think of any solutions, but after staying in the County for a long time, I should be able to think of something."
Chen Kui laughed and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for your good idea."
