Chapter 1238 Absolutely no cover-ups, no favoritism.
Gai Wenting leaned forward, his brows furrowing.
"Xiao Qin, tell me in detail. Don't worry, I will definitely not cover it up or protect my own. I will definitely crack down on this evil trend."
Da Bao took out a document and handed it to him. Gai Wenting turned around, picked up his reading glasses from the desk, sat back on the sofa, and carefully looked at the document. After a while, he put down the document, frowned, and looked out the window.
"I never expected that these people would dare to do this right under my nose. Ma Huaiyuan embezzled more than 30,000 yuan. People are never satisfied. What do you think he uses? He eats public food, drinks public drinks, and lives in public housing. How can he still be so greedy?"
Da Bao took out a box of special-supply cigarettes, handed one to Gai Wenting, and then took one out himself and lit it up.
"Secretary Gai, this is actually just the tip of the iceberg. Many others are involved, but my idea is to focus on the major issues and let the minor ones go. However, these people must be educated. I'm here today to discuss something with you."
I know that the actions of the past two days have had a very negative impact on our provincial and municipal governments. Because of my grandfather's connections, I can't let you be in such a passive position. Therefore, I'm thinking of convening a city-wide "Four Cleans and Five Antis" conference within the next two days, in the name of the provincial government and the working group.
Let's make these people come out and show their true colors, then you can speak and announce the outcome of their cases. How does that sound?
Gai Wenting looked at Da Bao in surprise. This was really pushing the credit onto him. He was in a huge debt of gratitude. He stood up excitedly and rubbed his hands together vigorously.
He paced around the office a few times, then turned around and bowed twice to Da Bao with his hands clasped together.
"Thank you, child. Uncle can rest assured now. I have an explanation to give to both my superiors and my subordinates."
The two sat together, and the atmosphere became more harmonious. They carefully discussed the scale of the meeting, and Da Bao was experienced in this matter.
"Secretary Gai, holding the Four Cleanups and Five Antis Conference in the city has many advantages. The workers will always be our strong support; their hatred for those capitalists is long-standing."
This time, in addition to cracking down on bureaucracy, we are also cracking down on corruption, including lavish banquets. Now the whole country is working together as one. I believe you have heard about what happened in Russia. We must unite and get through these difficult years together.
I also have a very special gift for you.
"Oh?"
Gai Wenting was even happier now. He patted the armrest of the sofa and looked at Da Bao.
Da Bao took a form out of his pocket and handed it to Gai Wenting.
"Patriotic merchants from Hong Kong purchased a batch of grain from Southeast Asia. Before coming to Nanhe, my uncle had already consulted the central government, which had approved my request to bring a portion of the grain to Nanhe."
This batch of grain isn't much, only two thousand tons. Of that, I'll give five hundred tons to the provincial military district, and you can distribute the remaining fifteen hundred tons.
Gai Wenting's hands trembled as he held the list. My God! Grain! This is grain! Fifteen hundred tons? It's not that Gai Wenting, the top official of the province, is completely inexperienced...
Nanhe is a major grain-producing province in the Central Plains, with an annual grain output of at least 30 million tons. However, last year, not a single drop of rain fell, and the crops in the fields yielded almost nothing. Even the Yellow River dried up. According to meteorological experts, the drought is likely to worsen in the next two years, which means that the entire province will suffer a complete crop failure in the next two years.
The more this is the case, the more precious grain becomes. Da Bao's 1,500 tons are like sending charcoal in snowy weather, which will at least alleviate the grain shortage in Xingzhou for a month. How could Gai Wenting not be excited?
Now, Gai Wenting looked at Da Bao and liked him more and more. What does it mean to be young and promising? If a twenty-year-old general is not considered young and promising, then these old guys who are middle-aged are really dead.
"Good, good, that's great! Xiao Qin, please thank your uncle for me. He still remembers his old comrade-in-arms. If there's anything you need me for, just let me know."
Having finished saying the important things, Da Bao got up to take his leave.
After he left, Gai Wenting called a meeting with all the provincial and municipal leaders who were at home. They decided that the "Four Cleans and Five Antis" conference would be held at the Erqi Square in Xingzhou the day after tomorrow, and all provincial and municipal leaders who were at home were required to attend.
Apart from military industrial enterprises, the entire Xingzhou city suspended operations for a day, and various units organized their employees to attend the conference.
With everything arranged, Gai Wenting personally called Da Bao, who praised him a few more times, and the matter was settled.
……
The next day, the working group took no action, which relieved everyone in the government. Rumors spread that the Party Secretary had personally spoken with the head of the working group and assured everyone that he had saved everyone's lives.
This beautiful lie has deceived the vast majority of people, which is exactly what Secretary Gai wanted to see.
Inside the train station, a freight train slowly pulled into the platform, which was filled with soldiers, police officers, and dozens of railway workers. Judging from their attire, they were preparing to load and unload goods.
The truck came to a stop, and more than a dozen fully armed soldiers jumped down from the cargo bed. Leading them was a second lieutenant platoon leader. The military district chief of staff took a step forward, and the platoon leader immediately shouted, "Assemble!"
The soldiers stood in a neat row, and the platoon leader ran up to the chief of staff, stood at attention, and saluted.
"Reporting to the commander, two thousand tons of grain have been safely delivered."
The chief of staff returned the greeting and warmly shook hands with the platoon leader.
"You've had a tough journey, young comrade. Was it safe along the way?"
The platoon leader's face and hands were chapped from the cold, indicating that he had been resting on the truck for the past few days. The junior platoon leader smiled shyly.
"Sir, the journey has been fine until we entered Nanhe Province. We encountered three carjacking and robbery incidents. We shot and killed several of them to scare them away. We dared not stop and had to hand the carjackers over to the local police station."
The chief of staff frowned and looked at the soldiers.
"Are our people unharmed?"
The platoon leader shook his head.
"When we set off, our regimental commander relayed Commander Qin's order: if we encountered robbers or carjackers, we should not fire warning shots, but treat them as criminals and kill them on the spot."
We followed Commander Qin's orders throughout the journey, so none of our personnel were injured.
The chief of staff shook the platoon leader's hand vigorously, unable to speak for a long time. He understood that the Commander Qin the platoon leader was referring to was the one staying at the military district guesthouse.
Compared to his decisive and ruthless actions, I hardly seem like a soldier.
Five hundred tons of grain were loaded onto military trucks, and the chief of staff sat directly in the driver's seat. Due to food shortages, the troops' training sessions had been extended from three days to five days. If this continued, the training might have to be canceled. These five hundred tons of grain were practically a lifesaver…
PS:
My new book, "Reborn in the 80s: I Control Life and Death in the Human World," is now officially available. This book incorporates elements of urban rebirth in the 1980s, as well as feng shui and fortune-telling. I revised it five times before its official publication.
Who says you have to go through tribulations to become a god or immortal? What god would let himself suffer so much? Qin Chao tells you that's all a lie. He ate, drank, played, and had fun, and even married seven wives. Then, at the age of eighty-four, God allowed him to be reborn at the age of sixteen. He had to live such a carefree life again. Was he God's favorite son?
As it turns out, immortals don't live a life of hardship! Only a carefree and unrestrained life is the standard for becoming a god, especially for gods who control life and death.
