Li Rui couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him. He turned around and called the police chief over. "This person is inciting the masses to go against the government. Arrest him first."
Seeing how Li Rui treated him with kindness and authority, the bureau chief had long been full of admiration for him. Hearing Li Rui's words, he straightforwardly agreed. He walked in front of the man and grabbed his arm, saying, "Be honest, or I'll tell you …"
The man shouted, "The government is arresting people. Officials don't reason with people. If they can't win, they arrest people. Everyone, run …"
The police chief raised his hand and slapped him on the back of his head, shouting, "Don't talk nonsense. We police never catch people, we catch hooligans like you. Go!" He escorted him to the police car.
Li Rui looked around at the villagers again. He carefully observed their emotions and said loudly, "Does anyone else have a different opinion? If there is, feel free to bring it up. We can discuss and solve it together. Don't be like that person just now, being unreasonable and taking the opportunity to stir up trouble and stir up everyone's emotions without helping to solve any problems. We will definitely not tolerate such a black sheep. "
An old man raised his hand and asked, "Where is the temporary accommodation that you mentioned? When can we move there? We don't dare to go back to the village now. We're afraid that we'll fall into a hole. "
His words caused a small group of villagers to laugh, but most of them looked at Li Rui anxiously, waiting for his answer.
Li Rui realized the importance of the temporary accommodation from the villagers' gazes. He said, "We'll arrange it immediately. We'll try to get everyone to move in tonight. Please give us some time to arrange. Now, if you can go home, try to go home. If you want to live in the temporary accommodation, you can go home to pack your clothes and blankets and wait for the notice from the two village committees. Is that okay? "
The villagers looked at each other. They all knew that there was no point in staying, but no one took the initiative to leave.
Li Rui saw this and gave the village director a look, indicating that he should persuade the villagers to go home. The village director understood. He went up and said a few words. Soon, a few villagers were persuaded to leave. Seeing that someone was leaving, the other villagers no longer hesitated and followed one after another. Hundreds of people slowly retreated like a flood, and the courtyard quickly regained its tranquility and emptiness. However, the corpses of the two victims and their relatives had not left yet. They were still in the courtyard, waiting for something.
Li Rui ignored them and gathered the village leaders for a meeting. He mainly talked about three things. First, choose a place to build a temporary settlement as soon as possible. If the village had supplies such as tents, use them first. If the village did not have them, Li Rui would be responsible for contacting the County Civil Affairs Bureau to provide support. They must finish building before tonight to ensure that the villagers of Xinguang Village have a place to stay. Of course, it was easy to say that it was done. They just had to find an open and flat place, such as the playground of a village primary school or middle school, and set up enough tents. At the same time, they just had to provide a certain amount of food and water, and send a few staff members to maintain order.
Second, the village would send staff members to Xinguang Village to carry out inspections, warnings, and evacuations to ensure that no one stayed in the dangerous houses. This was because not everyone was afraid of death. Some of the older villagers, those with leg problems, and those with wishful thinking might not be willing to leave home. They might continue to live in a dangerous village. This increased the risk to a certain extent and had to be avoided. Otherwise, the county leaders like Li Rui would have to bear the brunt of the casualties.
Third, form a special emergency team to comfort and help the families of the two victims. They would persuade them to send the bodies of the victims to the funeral parlor for cremation. They would also discuss the compensation with professional medical personnel and obtain the approval of the families. They would be responsible for the compensation in the future.
These three things were the most important at the moment. They had to be given the highest priority and completed quickly. If any of them were delayed, it could cause additional risks.
After hearing Li Rui's arrangements, the village leaders, including the Secretary of the Village Party Committee and the Village Head, did not dare to delay. They immediately organized and carried out the tasks. For a moment, there were calls, calls, discussions … all kinds of sounds were incessant. At first, it sounded a little chaotic, but under the premise of a clear division of labor, order was still in order.
During this process, the Deputy County Head of the Standing Committee, Su Tao, did not express his opinion. He just stood at the side and watched coldly. He had already made up his mind. Since Li Rui liked to show off so much, then all the work here would be arranged by him. When he made a mistake, then he would ruthlessly mock him to take revenge.
"County Magistrate Li, we don't have enough disaster relief supplies in the village, especially tents. We need you to inform the county's Finance Bureau and ask them to send some over to help us!"
The Deputy County Head in charge of civil affairs, a young man in his mid-thirties, hurriedly found Li Rui and asked for help after communicating with his subordinates in the village government office.
When Li Rui heard this, he was not in a hurry to call the County Finance Bureau. Instead, he asked, "Tell me first, how many tents do we have in the village, and how many tents do we lack?"
The Deputy County Head was a few years older than Li Rui, but he was only an attendant. When he heard this question, his expression was a little absent-minded as he said, "The village … has less than ten tents right now. We still lack … lack … lack a few dozen tents, right?"
"Are you asking me?" Li Rui smiled.
The Deputy County Head's face turned red as he said with certainty, "We still lack a few dozen tents!"
"How many tents is a few dozen? Do you have an accurate number?" Li Rui asked with dissatisfaction.
The Deputy County Head was extremely embarrassed as he stuttered and was at a loss for words.
Li Rui earnestly said, "Comrade, you can't be like this. Since you're in charge of this matter, then you have to be clear about everything. You can't be vague about it. First, you have to calculate the number of villagers from Xinguang Village that are going to stay in the temporary settlement. How many tents are there? Will the tents be distributed by family or by number of people? How many people can live in each tent? How many people can live in the tents that are already there? How many tents do the remaining people need? You have to give me a clear number so that I can ask for supplies from the Civil Affairs Bureau for you. We are now in a disaster relief situation. Although the situation is very urgent, we can't cause unnecessary waste at the same time. "
The deputy mayor was enlightened by Li Rui's words. He felt that a big window had opened in front of him. He could see many things that he couldn't see before, and he could see things more clearly and comprehensively. He was ashamed of his ignorance and recklessness, and was shocked by Li Rui's experience and prudence. He had thought that Li Rui must have relied on his connections to become the deputy mayor at such a young age, and he might not have any ability. But after this experience, he was completely convinced. He said respectfully, "Yes, I know. Thank you, Mayor Li, for your teachings. I'll go to count carefully, and I'll report to you when I'm done."
I'll report it to you later. "Li Rui nodded. He wasn't afraid of his subordinates making mistakes, but he was afraid of his subordinates not doing anything. It didn't matter if they made mistakes. As long as they could learn and correct themselves modestly and make great progress in the future, they would be good cadres. He waved his hand and said," Go. "
He then ordered Ma Yuming, who was beside him, "Call the Civil Affairs Bureau and ask them to prepare the emergency tents and transport vehicles in advance. Be ready to send them over at any time. Wait for my news."
Although they could only ask the Civil Affairs Bureau for help after calculating the exact data of the required tents, it didn't prevent them from greeting the Civil Affairs Bureau first and asking them to prepare so that they could send the tents over as soon as possible.
At this critical moment, any work had to be done seamlessly. Time was efficiency.
"Tut, tut. You are quite good as a Deputy County Head!"
Long Baoyu seized this opportunity and went up to Li Rui to praise him.
Li Rui waved his hand and said, "If you have nothing to do, find a place to sit and drink water. Don't hang around in front of me. Let's talk after I'm done with this." Then, he remembered something and ordered Ma Yuming, "After you call the Civil Affairs Bureau, call the Bureau of Land and Resources and ask if the provincial technicians can arrive in the afternoon. If they can arrive, we don't have to rush to set up the temporary shelter. "
Ma Yuming nodded and noted it down. He quickly finished making the two calls and finally reported to Li Rui, "They can arrive in the afternoon. They have already driven to Qingyang. They will arrive at three or four o 'clock."
Li Rui nodded and went to find the Village Head. He told him that the provincial technicians would arrive at three or four o 'clock in the afternoon and asked him to arrange for the staff to receive them. After that, he thought for a while and felt that the matters in the village had come to an end. Next, he could go to Xinguang Village to check out the situation. Just as he was about to call Ma Yuming to go to the village, he saw the Secretary of the Village Party Committee come over with a smile. He heard him say, "County Magistrate Li, it's time to eat. Let's eat first. The restaurant has been arranged.
How about that? "It would be a lie to say that Li Rui wasn't hungry. He was hungry, tired, and sleepy. After all, he didn't sleep for half the night. He just escaped from the valley and wanted to eat and sleep. But could he eat and sleep now? He waved his hand and said, "You guys go eat first. Don't worry about me. I'll go take a look at Xinguang Village." After that, he called Ma Yuming and Long Baoyu and walked towards the door.
The Secretary of the Village Party Committee was stunned. Looking at Li Rui's back, he didn't know what to do. When he saw Su Tao walking over, he immediately asked, "Mr. Su, I invited County Magistrate Li for lunch, but he didn't eat and went to the village. He asked us to eat first. What … what should we do?"
Su Tao looked at Li Rui with disdain and said in a sharp tone, "Let him do what he wants. Don't worry about him. Let's eat. Oh, so he's showing concern for the people? So he's a good county magistrate? Tsk, I think he's just putting on a show! "
The Secretary of the Village Party Committee could naturally hear the resentment towards Li Rui in his words. His heart twitched and he looked at Su Tao, but he didn't dare to say anything.
