Chapter 26 Chapter Twenty-Five

On-the-spot meeting—15 secretaries and directors were arrested—Guan Yeping met the car repairer Wang Dache, a lifelong talent—the common people cheered——Guan Yeping talked about employing people In the small meeting room of the water conservancy guest house, Guan Yeping smoked silently, while Ge Yuncheng and Gao Yijian sat on a three-seater sofa.Ge Yuncheng checked the thick stack of materials carefully, and kept drawing in the notebook with a red pen.Xiao Kejian, Zhou Xingbiao, and Xu Qizheng were flipping through the materials in their hands. The room was so silent that even a needle could be heard when it fell to the ground.The door was pushed open, and then Lan Xiaoping came in, and he sat on the single sofa near Guan Yegan.

Guan Yeping screwed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, looked at Lan Xiaoping and said: "Everyone, several major cases in Yinan County have already been laid out, and there is another program that must be carried out. So please, Comrade Xiaoping Come on, this last program has to be directed by you." Lan Xiaoping said: "Tomorrow's 'on-site meeting' will be held at 10 o'clock in the morning. There are more than 170 people present at the meeting, including all members of the county's four teams; the township secretaries and town leaders; and the heads of the county's ministries and commissions. The venue of the meeting is Xinsi Township Auditorium."

Guan Yeping nodded and didn't say anything.Ge Yuncheng put down his notebook and said: "The corruption of the Yinan County Party Committee is shocking. Wang Dengsheng, Hou Xiguang, and You Binjian are all the main leading cadres. Wang Dengsheng is the secretary of the county Party committee, and he is also a backup candidate for young and middle-aged cadres in the city. This problem is no longer simply a matter of individual corruption. As Wang Dengsheng said, the power cannot be effectively supervised. The masses say that the county’s food system is a "little Hong Kong" in Yinan, and "one country, two systems" is implemented. Wang Dengsheng has been removed from the county party secretary, and Hou Xiguang actually asked him to sign a A contract for the sale of 60,000 tons of wheat for 42 million yuan! Almost all the team members of the X’an Municipal Party Committee in Shandong are rotten, which is almost the same as that of Yinan County. There is also a huge bribery case for the Xjiang Project in Fujian. The perpetrators include the Secretary of the Party Committee of the Xjiang Engineering Bureau. The bureau chief, four deputy bureau chiefs, and seven bureau-level cadres are a typical case. The leadership team is basically rotten. The problem in Yinan must continue and be thoroughly carried out. Indeed, the biggest corruption is in the administration of officials. Corruption. If we don’t solve the employment problem, we can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause.”

On the morning of September 22, Lan Xiaoping came to Xinsi Township early. He inspected the auditorium, walked around the township government, and looked at his watch. It was only nine o'clock. In accordance with the spirit of the county's notice, except for townships that can bring their own vehicles, the county government will gather two vans and a bus to go collectively.After nine o'clock, a small car drove to the Xinsi Township Government.Two traffic police officers are directing the vehicle to park at the prescribed location.At this time, a bus had already stopped in front of the County Public Security Bureau. Under Xu Lin's command, 30 heavily armed criminal policemen boarded the bus.Then two police cars pulled out.Zou Zheng, Xu Lin and two policemen boarded the first police car, and then the police car slowly circled to the front of the bus, and Lu Weihua commanded the bus to set off right after the police car.He took three policemen into another police car and followed the bus.

At the gate of the County Water Conservancy Guest House, a white van also drove out slowly.Sitting in the car were Guan Yeping, Ge Yuncheng, Gao Yijian, Xiao Kejian, Zhou Xingbiao, and Xu Qizheng.The car passed through the wide street, took a curved turn, turned onto the asphalt road, and drove onto the Yishui River Bridge in an instant. When the car stopped in the Xinsi Township government compound, Guan Yeping jumped out of the car. It was already 9:50. He walked into the auditorium, followed by Ge Yuncheng and the others. The audience in the auditorium has settled down, and all the people attending the meeting have arrived ahead of schedule.They didn't know what the content of this "on-site meeting" was, they didn't inform them that they needed to prepare materials, and they didn't ask to prepare for the scene.But these county-level officials have a feeling of fright.In just half a month, the county party secretary, deputy secretary, chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, director of the commercial bureau were arrested in the county, and the director of the public security bureau who escaped was also arrested.While the people applauded, these officials were trembling with fear.No one dared to say a word unless they were very confidant.

Before the meeting started, it was usually the opportunity for these secretaries, township heads, and bureau chiefs to talk and greet each other.The philistine style in the officialdom only makes people feel that kind of face at this time.Even the handshake is hypocritical, with the sour taste of officialdom, and ninety-nine percent of the flattering language is water.But if you don't know how to do this, you will be regarded as an unreasonable person, and you will even feel infinitely embarrassed.At the moment, most of the people were smoking silently, and no one was shaking their bodies, walking carelessly through conspicuous places, trying to hide themselves where no one would see them.Even if someone talks, it is talking about topics that have nothing to do with the current situation.The voice was so low it was almost inaudible.

There were a few "clicks" from the microphone, and the audience fell silent, and all eyes were focused on the stage.Lan Xiaoping sat in the middle of the rostrum, while Guan Yeping and Ge Yuncheng sat in the middle of the back row.None of the county's four sets of teams took a seat on the rostrum. "The meeting is now." Lan Xiaoping announced the opening of the meeting in a loud voice. "Now the members of the fourth team of Qing County sit in the first two rows of the audience." Lan Xiaoping stood up and looked towards the audience.There was a sound from the audience, and the four sets of team members quickly came to the front row to take their seats.

Then Lan Xiaoping said: "The secretary and bureau chief I named next, sit on the left side of the venue, that is, the seat on the left side of the sidewalk. Comrades sitting on the left side please sit in the middle and make room." After a commotion at the venue, he said: "Xiba Township Party Secretary Zhang Quanzi; Huamiao Township Party Secretary Yu Qian; Wangji Township Party Secretary Li Shizhu; Tangqiao Township Party Secretary Li Wenjin; Wuyuan Township Mayor Qiu Yuzhu; Xinsi Township Party Secretary Qiu Shenglin; Dadian Township Party Secretary Wang Qianjin; Jiangma Township Party Secretary Lin Huada." Lan Xiaoping looked at the audience, and those who had been named came to the left to take their seats.

He went on to say: "Jiao Yuan, Director of the Water Conservancy Bureau; Qiao Yuxi, Director of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative; Qi Desheng, Director of the Transportation Bureau; Yu Qianfeng, Director of the Urban Construction Bureau; Huang Xihe, Minister of Agriculture and Industry; Wei Xianqun, Deputy Director of the Grain Bureau, and Hu Huiwen, Deputy Director of the Grain Bureau. There are 15 people in total, please sit on the left immediately." At this time, 30 criminal policemen with guns lined up outside the auditorium.Zou Zheng walked up to the rostrum, came to Lan Xiaoping's side, and said in a low voice:

"already prepared." "People will enter the venue immediately." Lan Xiaoping said. Zou Zheng quickly stepped off the rostrum.The 30 criminal police led by Xu Lin and Lu Weihua neatly entered the venue from the front of the auditorium, and stepped back along the left aisle.Xu Lin stopped in his tracks, and 30 criminal police officers stood at attention at the same time. Xu Lin ordered: "Turn back!" Everyone in the audience was stunned, almost too scared to breathe. Gao Yijian walked up to the front row of the rostrum, stood next to Lan Xiaoping, and said loudly into the microphone: "With the approval of the People's Procuratorate of Shangyang City, the following 15 people are involved in bribery cases and will be detained according to law!" Then the list of 15 people was read out: "Zhang Quanzi, Yu Qian, Li Shizhu, Li Wenjin, Qiu Yuzhu, Qiu Shenglin, Wang Qianjin, Lin Huada, Jiao Yuan, Qiao Yuxi, Qi Desheng, Yu Qianfeng, Huang Xihe, Wei Xianqun, Hu Huiwen."

Zou Zheng was standing under the stage, facing the venue. After Gao Yijian announced, he ordered loudly: "Two teams, carry out the order!" The criminal police "clicked" and put 15 people in handcuffs almost at the same time. At this time Lu Weihua came to Zou Zheng, and Zou Zheng said, "Put them on the bus." Under the leadership of Lu Weihua, the criminal police escorted one of them and boarded the bus. Guan Yeping walked out of the auditorium and came outside the township government. He saw men, women, old and children standing on the side of the road, and there were people running towards here in the distance. The vast fields were silent.In the farmland, there was a desolation left.The ripe corn rustled melancholy.Under the blowing of the autumn wind, the green rice fields chase after waves like waves.Guan Yeping stood there for a long time, looking at these hardworking and honest farmers, looking at the boundless fields, his mind fell into deep thought.Here, how many crimes An Xiaobin and Qiu Shenglin have left for the people, how many disasters they have left for the people, and how much blood and tears they have left for the people! He didn't take a car, but strode forward along the gravel road.Soon came to the road, looked up and saw the bicycle repair man on the side of the road, he was Master Wang, Wang Dache.He still wears the faded blue jersey, it's the same there.Guan Yeping felt sad for a while, and the scene not long ago resurfaced before his eyes.He strode towards Master Wang. When he came to the car repairman, he was a tall, thin man in his 30s with a long face. The young man with high cheekbones was sitting beside him, holding the two-year-old girl in his arms.He knew that this was his lifelong talent. An Xiaobin killed three people in his family and drove his sister crazy. Guan Yeping knelt down and said, "Brother, do you still know me?" Wang Dache raised his head carelessly, and suddenly asked in surprise, "It's you?" "it's me." "Students, quickly kowtow to Master Qingtian!" Bi Shengcai's dull gaze suddenly widened, and tears welled up in his eyes.Holding the child in his arms, he knelt down in front of Guan Yeping. Guan Yeping hurriedly helped him up and said, "It's a good thing you left behind those two sinful certificates!" Wang Dache asked with tears in his eyes, "Who are you? Did you arrest these bullies from the county and the village?" "Brother, it doesn't matter who I am, you have to know that you have done your best for the people of Yinan!" Guan Yeping said, holding the car repairman's hand tightly. At this time, the van suddenly stopped on the side of the road, and Ge Yuncheng, Gao Yijian, Xiao Kejian, Zhou Xingbiao, and Xu Qizheng all got off.Immediately afterwards, Lan Xiaoping got off from a car behind. Guan Yeping said to them: "It was this master Wang who repaired the car who provided us with important clues. This is the lifelong genius who was killed and his family was ruined." "You are?" Guan Yeping pulled Lan Xiaoping over and said, "This is Lan Xiaoping, your new county party secretary. If you have any injustices in the future, you can go to the county to find him." Lan Xiaoping said to Wang Dache: "Master, you have never thought of who he is! He is the 'missing' secretary of the municipal party committee, Guan Yeping. You have met him twice already." Wang Dache couldn't believe his ears, tears rolled in his eyes, and said excitedly: "If all the officials are like you, the common people will be willing to die!" Guan Yeping said to Lan Xiaoping: "Xiaoping, the tragedy of Bi Shengcai's family cannot be compensated by anything. But please consider the following two issues in your county committee: one is to cure the illness of Bi Shengcai's younger sister; The second is to give his family a sum of compensation, including the child's support. Also, I still want to tell you that some of the murdered female workers in the county textile factory did not go to work because they were afraid of those hooligans. , Work must be resumed immediately. The suspended wages must be supplemented, and compensation must be given according to different situations. The factory has no money, and the county finance must also solve it.” Lan Xiaoping nodded and said, "Secretary Guan, I will definitely solve it properly to satisfy the parties involved." At this time, the farmers came to the road one after another and surrounded Guan Yeping and them. Guan Yeping looked at the pair of joyful and excited eyes with trust in them. With gratitude and anticipation, he walked into the crowd, holding the pair of thick hands.With tears in his eyes, he said: "Folks, you have suffered! These corrupt elements have damaged the image of the party, damaged the relationship between cadres and the masses, and hurt the hearts of the villagers! Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. There is a saying , called 'officials force the people to rebel', why did Chen Sheng and Wu Guang revolt? That was because they were forced to despair." Wang Dache walked to the middle and said, "Actually, the common people don't have too high demands, they just want to live in peace and security, but like his family..." He pointed at Bi Sheng, who was holding the child, before continuing, "What law did he commit? His family was ruined! Secretary, the common people look forward to an official like you! This is called 'private visit', and only then can we understand the hearts of the common people. Today's officials are not as good as Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty! Qianlong often visited the people privately to eliminate violence and bring peace to the people. But some county officials and township officials are really amazing! The houses are getting bigger and bigger, and the cars are getting smaller and smaller. They eat, drink and play all day , who cares about the life and death of ordinary people!" In the crowd, some sighed, some sobbed, and some cursed in a low voice... Guan Yeping held people's hands again, with tears rolling in his eyes, he kept saying: "Folks, please go back..." At this time, a girl in her 20s in the crowd pulled a man who was nearly fifty years old. The girl had slender eyebrows, high nose bridge, big eyes, and fair skin. She pulled the tall man and said: "Father, hurry up..." They squeezed to the front of the crowd and shouted, "Wait a minute!" Guan Yeping, Lan Xiaoping, Ge Yuncheng, and Gao Yijian all turned their heads, and saw the girl dragging the man to hold her breath, came to Guan Yeping, knelt down, kowtowed and cried, "Help me!" Benefactor, savior..." Guan Yeping quickly pulled the girl and the man and said, "Get up, get up, you can't do this." The girl said to the man beside her: "Father, this is the benefactor I met. He is the one who defended our family. He is the one who arrested An Xiaobin and Wei Yuhong..." The girl wiped her tears and said. Guan Yeping said, "Tao Xiuling, how is your father doing now?" The man said: "Benefactor, even if I die, I will close my eyes..." Guan Yeping shook the man's hand and said, "Please go back! If you have any difficulties at home, please contact Secretary Lan of the county party committee." He pointed to Lan Xiaoping beside him. Wang Dache said, "Let Secretary Guan go! He still has a lot to do?" Then the crowd consciously moved out of the way, and Guan Yeping turned around and waved to the crowd as he walked.People followed closely behind, waving their hands.The car moved slowly along the side of the road, Guan Yeping and Ge Yuncheng didn't get in the car, and moved forward slowly with the flow of people... Back in the county seat, it was past noon.Guan Yeping left Lan Xiaoping behind and came to the restaurant. Their Chinese food was divided into two dishes, one soup. Guan Yeping said to Lan Xiaoping during the meal: "Xiaoping, it's time for Daye after the chaos, and we must hurry up and get all the main leaders of the townships and ministries and bureaus. You can't sit in the office and listen to the reports of a few people when you choose cadres. , we need to broaden our horizons and go to the masses. Those who have made achievements can also recommend themselves. I advocate that "external promotion does not avoid enemies, and internal promotion does not avoid relatives". The method of employing people based on individual names must be completely broken. Can you Using good people is also a test of the courage and ability of a leading cadre, and it also reflects the worldview of our leading cadres. Based on the feedback of a few people, many of the materials written by the organization department are empty words, stereotypes, and lies. The people he wants to use , The dead can be said to be alive. Based on the materials, people like Wang Dengsheng and You Binjian can be members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee. But what about the facts? There is a Chinese saying that "officials and officials protect each other". You investigate and understand Hou Xiguang, You Binjian, Huang Youren and An Xiaobin, they must have said that Wang Dengsheng is better than flowers. But ask the common people, the difference between heaven and earth! There are still four sets of teams that need to be rectified. Although it is a matter of the municipal party committee, we cannot If that’s the case, you should go to the masses and let the masses talk more.” He took two mouthfuls of rice and said, "What do you think of Lu Yinan?" Lan Xiaoping said, "I don't know much about it." Guan Yeping said: "This person has been suppressed for a long time, and a very insightful and talented person is idle in the agency. I have an idea, and I am going to ask the Organization Department to listen to the feedback in depth. I suggest coming to you , the position of You Binjian, he and you will cooperate well." Lan Xiaoping asked, "Do you know him?" "I have some understanding. His personality, temper, and work should be said to be an ideal leading cadre. If you and I can have the same vision as the masses, there will be no problems." Guan Yeping said. Lan Xiaoping nodded and said, "If you say that, I really want to meet him." "Xiaoping, the matter here can basically come to an end. A lot of work below is to sort out the case and hand it over to the judicial department for punishment according to law. Therefore, I plan to go back to the city soon." Guan Yeping said. "Yes, there are more jobs in the city. You, the secretary of the municipal party committee, have been 'missing' for so many days, so it's time to take office." The two put down their bowls and laughed.
