Chapter 35: Benevolence

You Mingfu walked into Zhao Guodong's office with a slightly respectful look. Zhao Guodong was carefully inspecting the design instructions for the highway renovation and expansion from Xinping, Hualin County to the county town compiled by the Provincial Highway Design Institute. This was an old instruction manual from three years ago, but it was designed according to the second-level standard cement road.

"Lao You, come here, sit down." Zhao Guodong saw You Mingfu coming in, waved his hand and signaled You Mingfu to take his seat by himself, and then continued to look at the things in his hand.

"County Magistrate Zhao, thank you." You Mingfu didn't know how to speak for a while.

"What do you thank me?" Zhao Guodong asked curiously.

"Thank you, County Magistrate Zhao, for fighting for me in front of County Magistrate Luo and Secretary Zou. Although Lao You didn't have that idea, he still empathized with me." What You Mingfu said was also sincere.

"Oh, I just talk about the matter. What the unit I am in charge of needs is responsible people. If you are those who do nothing but enjoy it, I will openly suggest that they should not do it under my hands as soon as possible." Zhao Guodong smiled faintly, "Secretary Zou and County Magistrate Luo did not adopt my advice, but they have their considerations. Don't be discouraged. Old travel, opportunities will always be favored by popular organizations that work hard."

To be honest, You Mingfu never dreamed that Zhao Guodong would recommend him to serve as the director of the Transportation Bureau in front of Zou Zhichang and Luo Dahai. He was not a person who studied transportation, and was not a big hit. Especially for a poor and short-lived unit like the Transportation Bureau, You Mingfu never thought about where he would take his turn. However, Zhao Guodong recommended him to him in front of Zou Zhichang and Luo Dahai. Although he did not pass the Standing Committee in the end, it was enough to make You Mingfu feel grateful. Perhaps even the Standing Committee members did not expect that he would become a strong competitor for the Transportation Bureau.

Fang Chiguo's motion to issue Niu De as the director of the county cultural bureau did not cause any turmoil at the Standing Committee. Both Zou Zhichang or Luo Dahai, Wan Chaoyang was quite calm. It seemed that both sides expected that Niu Defa's ending should be the most in line with the current situation.

Huang Tiechen, Secretary of the Party Committee of Chengguan Town, was transferred to the position of the Party Secretary of the County Transportation Bureau. A day later, the county people's congress standing committee passed a series of appointments about Niu Defa and others.

This time the adjustment was almost done without any news. Niu Defa, a hot figure, obediently went to the county cultural bureau to work. And the handover was almost done immediately. Even the Mitsubishi Off-Road, which he had been driving for, took the initiative to hand it over to the Transportation Bureau office without waiting for Huang Tiechen, who took the post, which made the Transportation Bureau feel that the sun came out of the West.

No one knew what was wrong. Even the Regional Transportation Bureau was puzzled by this sudden adjustment. Several deputy directors called the main leaders of the county party committee and county government to ask what the reason was, but the answers they received were formulaic sentences, work needs, and my requirements.

This sentence for work needs is undoubtedly nonsense, although it is the most practical. My request is obviously a lie. No one takes the initiative to ask for the Cultural Affairs Bureau to be transferred from the Transportation Bureau. Even if the charm of Chinese culture is attractive, it is probably not as good as the transportation front in full swing. When asked about Niu Defa himself, he himself was secretive and did not mention his own ideas at all, but just said that he wanted to do whatever he wanted.

Only well-informed people in the county party committee and government felt that Niu Defa's adjustment was probably related to the new deputy county magistrate Zhao Guodong. Just a deputy director who served as the deputy director was so capable, but it was a bit unreasonable, but many things often cannot be reasoned based on common sense.

You Mingfu, the third deputy director who was originally dispensable in the county government office, became a strong competitor for the transportation director, which made countless people look at him. Although he failed to succeed, many people still realized the mystery behind You Mingfu's becoming a popular this time.

Of course, You Mingfu himself knew the mystery. If Zhao Guodong had not supported him in front of the Standing Committee, I was afraid that those people would never have considered him directly, although he had been in the position of deputy director of the government office for four years.

"County Magistrate Zhao, I have never thought about that position. Really, Lao Huang is a down-to-earth person, and the most rare thing is that he has no selfish thoughts. With him to help you, I think you can rest assured on this road." You Mingfu said from the bottom of his heart.

"I'm not very familiar with Huang Tiechen, but I heard that the official voice is pretty good. Otherwise, I would have sat in the position of the Party Secretary of Chengguan Town for four or five years without moving."

A faint smile appeared on Zhao Guodong's lips. He had learned that Huang Tiechen was indeed an alternative to the old ox. It was because of this that he would have stayed in the position of Party Secretary of Chengguan Town for several years. If it weren't for the stalemate of the candidate for the Transportation Director at the Standing Committee this time, and he also gave Zou Zhichang and Luo Dahai a candidate who obviously did not meet the wishes of both parties, it would be probably not the turn of Huang Tiechen to take the place.

You Mingfu also heard the sarcastic meaning implicit in Zhao Guodong's words and said with a wry smile: "Although the old Huang man is real, he is not unfamiliar with the world. This time, the leaders probably think that this project is so popular and not easy to deal with, so he pushed Huang Tiechen out. He doesn't look like a dull man, but he has a clear idea in his heart."

Zhao Guodong's heart moved. It seemed that many people were still thinking about the project from Xinping to the county town.

Think about it, it is impossible for you to not pay attention to such a big project. Since You Mingfu said so affirmatively, it means that the situation he learned is basically true. Huang Tiechen is quite sensible in doing things. It is best to leave the project to such a person to be responsible for. He is at ease in his heart, and he will not lose the bottom line in general principles. He can take care of ordinary people and worldly affairs. It is troublesome to do this kind of purely stubborn people.

"Lao You, I have told County Mayor Luo that this year will be a key year for our Hualin transportation construction. The county government is preparing to establish a transportation construction leading group, that is, the engineering command center. The team leader is headed by County Mayor Luo, and I serve as the executive deputy team leader. Lao Huang and you serve as the deputy team leader. Lao Huang is responsible for the specific construction work. The government office will coordinate the promotion of demolition, land acquisition and occupation of townships along the route. You will be responsible for this part."

After a pause, Zhao Guodong said: "Your matter is also very heavy. Although the people along the route are very enthusiastic about building this highway, there may still be many difficult problems that will arise when it comes to personal specific interests. You will draw one person in the country, construction, agriculture, and the government's Legal Affairs Office to do this work together with the township governments. You must not only safeguard the legitimate interests of the people, but also not allow those who are malicious to take the opportunity to blackmail the government."

You Mingfu came to Zhao Guodong's office for this reason. The county established this transportation construction project command center to designate him as the deputy team leader, which immediately attracted the envious eyes of countless people. Xinping went to the county town to involve six towns, and several town secretaries and mayors have called, mainly to get close to the issue of land acquisition and demolition.

Everyone knows that there is not much flexibility in land acquisition, but there is a lot of flexibility in demolition compensation and green seedling compensation, such as the fertility of the land, the old and new buildings, and the price of trees. The specific person in charge has considerable discretion.

"County Magistrate Zhao, this task is probably a bit difficult, I'm afraid..." You Mingfu felt that the burden on his shoulders suddenly became heavier.

"Old You, don't worry so much. This is also a training for you. It's not interesting to stay in the government office all day and just do some writing work. If you go down and deal with the grassroots more, what if you ask you to go to the grassroots to exercise one day?" Zhao Guodong stood up and patted You Mingfu on the shoulder. "I can give you a brief explanation. As long as it's not too much, it's okay to make more compensation. You can master it freely and don't have to be petty. Ensure that the demolition and land acquisition work is completed smoothly. Of course, the main responsibility is to the party committees and governments of each township. I must also clarify this when meetings are held. The party secretary of each township is the first responsible person. If the task is not completed, the party secretary of his party committee will speak for words."

After hearing what Zhao Guodong said, You Mingfu felt relieved. He was not afraid of hard work, but he was most afraid that his work would not go away or that it would not meet the other party's wishes and let the other party down. This was what he was most worried about.

But now that Zhao Guodong is so generous in delegating power, he, You Mingfu, has been practicing in government agencies for so long, and is not unfamiliar with these affairs. If he still cannot seize the opportunity, he will be really a waste.

After seeing off You Mingfu, who was so heartbroken, Zhao Guodong sat back in the chair.

As Cai Zhengyang predicted, neither Zou Zhichang nor Luo Dahai would intend to break up completely at this time. This would only give the regional leaders the impression that they would not know the times and ignore the overall situation. At that time, I am afraid that no one will have good results. Although Zou Zhichang cannot leave, Luo Minghai will not be able to think about it. The only way is to compromise.

Huang Tiechen became the product of compromise, but he was cheaper. Huang Tiechen could indeed help him relieve a lot of pressure.

You Mingfu is not a suitable candidate for the transportation director, especially his lack of experience in grassroots work is one of his major weaknesses. Zhao Guodong recommended You Mingfu to establish an impression that he bought a horse bone with a wealth of money. Moreover, even if You Mingfu is not considered a thousand-mile horse, he is still considered a good horse, but he has been in the stable for too long.

As long as you have the ability and are willing to do things, you will not hesitate to recommend it yourself, which can be regarded as giving some hope to those who are outside the Zou and Luo circles.
