Rebirth as an official

After breakfast, the two walked into the Guanmiao Township Government.

The small building of the township government is really well built. It is white and clean and feels completely different from the dirty streets outside. A basketball court and a parking lot have been built in front of the small building, and there are several cars parked inside.

As soon as he entered the building, the staff inside greeted Liu Changfa warmly. It seemed that Liu Changfa was very popular in the township government.

Under the leadership of Liu Changfa, they arrived at the door of Secretary Liang's office with ease.

Liu Changfa and Li An arranged their clothes in unison. They must make their clothes look neat before reporting to the leader. This is an impression point.

After the two of them finished tidying up, Liu Changfa knocked on the door, exactly three times, neither too loud nor too soft.

Li An couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this Liu Changfa is also well versed in the way of being an official, and there is also something special about knocking on the leader's door.

If you knock too loudly, it means offending the leader. In TV dramas, only when bad guys enter the house will the door be knocked loudly. What are you doing by knocking so loudly? Are you trying to force the boss to give you a hand?

If the voice is too low, firstly, the leader may not be able to hear you or it may sound too strenuous. Secondly, it may make the leader think that you are sneaky and not aboveboard in doing things, which will greatly affect your impression.

After knocking on the door for a few seconds, a steady voice came from the room.

"Please come in."

Liu Changfa gently pushed the door open and walked in. Sitting behind the desk directly to the north of the room was Liang Qingfeng, secretary of the Guanmiao Township Party Committee.

Liang Qingfeng is from Yangdong County. He is in his 40s, has a Chinese character face, is slightly overweight, wears a white shirt and black trousers, and looks like a standard leader.

"Secretary Liang, sorry to bother you, we are here to report to you on the work of Fuqiang Village." Liu Changfa said respectfully as soon as he entered the room.

Liang Qingfeng didn't look up and just said "hmm" and continued writing something on a document, leaving Li An and Liu Changfa aside.

After about three or four minutes, he raised his head and said, "Tell me, why are you here?"

This secretary has a big air and official authority. No wonder he still holds the position of secretary of the township party committee in his 40s.

This is Ang Lee’s evaluation of Liang Qingfeng.

I have no impression of this person Li An in his previous life.Because when he was transferred to work in the township government two years later, he was no longer working as a secretary in Guanmiao Township, and Li An could not remember exactly where he went.

"Secretary Liang, our village recently established an edible fungus planting cooperative, and then we contacted..." Liu Changfa explained in detail how he came to find Gu Sitong to establish the cooperative.

"It seems that Team Leader Li is very capable." Liang Qingfeng lit a cigarette and glanced at Li An at this time, but his tone was a bit sinister.

"The first step was to collect wages from the villagers, and the second step was to find a company to set up a planting base. Team leader Li is now serving as a resident cadre in the village."

When Li An heard Liang Qingzhi mention asking for wages, he immediately felt like a mirror. It seemed that he had offended Liang Qingzhi by asking for wages. Could it be that he was also involved?

"Secretary Liang was joking, I just did my job." Li An answered quite satisfactorily.

Liang Qingfeng smoked a cigarette and said nothing for a long time.

"Secretary Liang, can you help us apply for special development funds for poverty alleviation?" Liu Changfa asked cautiously.

Liang Qingfeng flicked the ashes from his cigarette and ignored Liu Changfa's words.

He looked at Li An and said slowly: "Li An, establishing a cooperative is a good thing, and as a village cadre, it is also a good thing to find ways to bring villagers to wealth. However, Li An, as a village cadre and leader of the poverty alleviation working group, you, Should we report to the township party committee and township government before establishing it? This is a matter of principle."

Li An's heart sank when he heard this. Liang Qingfeng must have made a fuss out of a molehill. He was slapped with such a big label of violating principles.

Li An didn't defend himself at this time. He knew that no matter how he explained, the other party would have something to refute him, so he just lowered his head and listened.

Liu Changfa looked at the atmosphere and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Secretary Liang, our village committee didn't consider this matter well and thought that Director Shi from the county committee office was angry with you. Director Shi even came to our village meeting when we held it. It’s a trip.”

When Liang Qingfeng heard that Liu Changfa had carried Shi Maoxue out, he couldn't make things more difficult for Li An, so he had no choice but to give up.

He picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip, then thought for a while and said: "Establishing a cooperative is a good thing that benefits the people. The township party committee must support it. Township Chief Yu is the administrative leader. He has the final say in applying for funds. You go and report to the township chief."

After leaving Liang Qingfeng's office, Li An's face immediately turned ugly.

Although the township chief is in charge of finance, the Poverty Alleviation Office is the responsibility of the party committee. How can one go to the township chief to apply for special funds for poverty alleviation?

Liang Qingfeng turned against himself as soon as he entered the door today. Where did he offend him?Li An couldn't think of it for a while.

Liu Changfa obviously saw it and couldn't help but said: "Li An, how about we go find Director Shi and talk about it? After all, the review and approval is with him."

Li An shook his head and said: "Director Shi is very busy recently, so we don't want to cause trouble. Besides, although the Poverty Alleviation Office is responsible for review and approval, it will be useless if the township does not report our project."

After Li An finished speaking, the two of them sighed at the same time. Although it was useless to go to the township head, the secretary had already said that even if they were just going through the motions, they still had to go.

After all, the position of township mayor is preceded by the position of deputy secretary of the township party committee. He is the second-in-command of the party committee, so reporting to him is theoretically correct.

As soon as I walked to the door of the township chief's office, I saw several people already standing inside.

"Head of the township, we bought the computer in our office in 50 and have been using it for six years. Do you think we can buy a new one?" A man in his [-]s with almost no hair was reporting to the head of the township. With.

"Didn't the Party Office just get another computer? You can use it first." Township Chief Yu did not agree.

"Head of the township, three more nurses and one doctor have left our station. If this situation continues, there will be no one at the health station in a few days." Another 40-year-old man began to report.

Township Chief Yu frowned and said, "Stationmaster Wang, have you ever asked what the reason is?"

"Our station has not paid wages for three months, and people in the station are complaining." Stationmaster Wang began to complain.

"Didn't I get a sum of money last month? Why are there still complaints?" Township Chief Yu put down the pen in his hand.

"It's just some living expenses, but no performance bonus. How can that little money be enough to live on?" Principal Wang frowned a little.

"Let me think about this matter again." Township Chief Yu did not give an immediate reply.

The door to Mayor Yu's office was open, so Li An stood at the door and heard clearly. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, has Guanmiao Township's finances deteriorated to this point? Even buying a computer requires careful planning.

But think about it, since the country issued "three cancellations, two adjustments, and one reform" in 2002.

That is, the "three cancellations" refer to the elimination of administrative fees and government funds and fund-raising specifically levied on farmers such as township co-ordination and rural education financing; the elimination of the slaughter tax; and the elimination of uniformly stipulated labor accumulation and voluntary labor. The “two adjustments” refer to the adjustment of the current agricultural tax policy and the adjustment of the agricultural specialty tax policy. "One reform" refers to the reform of the current method of collection and use of village withdrawals and reservations.

Such a policy was well received by the people. In 2006, agricultural taxes were exempted. This measure once again reduced the burden on farmers, but it also caused the township government to lose an important source of fiscal revenue, especially in poor areas. It's adding insult to injury.

Mayor Yu was very busy, so Li An and Liu Changfa waited at the door for half an hour before entering.

The full name of the mayor is Yu Yang. He is in his 30s, has a thin face, is not tall, and wears glasses.

Li An was impressed by Yu Yang.

He was a quite capable cadre, serving from township chief to township party committee secretary, then deputy county magistrate, and finally retired as the head of the municipal government agency.

After Liu Changfa explained his intention, Yu Yang already knew what Liang Qingfeng meant.

Naturally, he would not offend the secretary for Li An. He thought for a while and said, "Let's wait until the cooperative obtains its business license to discuss this matter. Then you will write a report and submit it first, and the township will study it."

Hearing Yu Yang's words, Li An and Liu Changfa looked at each other, with only bitterness in each other's eyes.

After leaving the mayor's office, Li An and Liu Changfa stood in the yard in front of the office building smoking cigarettes, as if everything seemed to have come to a standstill.

Li An had an impulse at this time, and that was to call Xu Kai and ask him to borrow 20 to solve this urgent need.

When the two of them had just finished smoking and were about to drive back to the village, a black Santana drove into the township government compound. Li An took a look at the license plate and his heart suddenly moved.

Qing G44477, this license plate belongs to the Linjiang Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.
