Chapter 6: The Powerful Mayor Emerges
That night, the torrential rain did not stop as predicted, but still rained, and the next morning, there was a short period of rainstorm for up to 1 hour, and the entire Guanshan Town had already become a flood, but because Liu Qingyu and Qin Ruijie joined forces to prepare in advance, although many people's farmland and even houses were all flooded, but no one in the entire Guanshan Town died because of the flood, and everyone was evacuated to Tianwangling or other safe areas. It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that the rain stopped completely and the weather cleared.
Two days later, the flood waters receded. But on Tianwangling, there are still crowds, and many people are still stranded here, because their homes have been washed away by the flood, and they are homeless.
And at this moment, Liu Qingyu and Qin Ruijie were even more busy, because this time the flood was so violent, so that after the flood, almost all the food and other items that many people hoarded at home were washed away, and although Qin Ruijie prepared some materials on the side of Tianwangling, after all, the materials prepared by the civil affairs department of a small town are limited, and these materials are simply not enough to support the survival needs of tens of thousands of people in the town. Fortunately, there is no problem with the mobile communication base station in Guanshan Town, and it is still standing firmly, so that two people can coordinate disaster relief materials through mobile phones to the county and the surrounding townships, however, after two people made a phone call, the news they got made the two very disappointed, this time the entire Jinglin County was not only affected by Guanshan Town, and even many towns and towns drowned many people due to the untimely retreat, not to mention the material support for Guanshan Town.
Just when the two were anxious, Shi Zhenqiang, secretary of the town party committee, and Hu Guangyuan and Wang Xuewen, deputy mayors of the town, who had gone to the county for a one-day and one-night meeting, came back. After coming back, Shi Zhenqiang immediately asked Wang Dongyang, director of the town party committee office, to inform Liu Qingyu and Qin Ruijie to attend the town party committee meeting immediately.
The meeting of the town party committee was held in the conference room on the third floor of the town party committee office building. In this flood, because the town party committee building was built less than 3 years ago, all of them were made of steel and concrete structure, so except for the first floor of the water, the whole building did not have any problems, and the flood water receded, and it can still be used.
In the meeting room of the town party committee, all 9 members of the party committee of Guanshan Town were present.
Liu Qingyu's gaze swept over the faces of the other 8 people present one by one. Shi Zhenqiang, secretary of the town party committee, was sitting on the chair at the moment, his face was very gloomy. Qin Ruijie, deputy secretary of the town party committee, sat opposite him, bowing his head and fiddling with his beautiful nails, Hu Guangyuan, member of the party committee and executive deputy mayor, Wang Xuewen, member of the party committee and deputy mayor of the town, Shi Jingzhou, member of the organization committee, Jiang Chunyan, member of the propaganda committee, Yin Chunhua, minister of armed forces, and Meng Huan, secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, sat on the chair with different expressions and were silent. The whole meeting room was very dull.
Shi Zhenqiang coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, today is the first party committee we have held since Mayor Liu took office, and it is also a very important party committee, although I, the secretary, do not want to criticize others, but this time, I must criticize Comrade Liu Qingyu well, in the process of flood relief this time, you have done too badly, you have done very badly, you see, what has become of our Guanshan Town now?" How did you become the mayor of the town, you must know that you made this work like this, I should really leave Comrade Hu Guangyuan behind and let him be responsible for presiding over the flood relief work, Comrade Liu Qingyu, you are still too young, too inexperienced, although you have a red heart, but your working methods are very wrong, resulting in very low work efficiency, and the loss of the whole town is very heavy, Comrade Liu Qingyu, I didn't say you, you just participated in the work for a short time, and you have to actively go to Hu Guangyuan if you don't understandYou said that you have done the work of Guanshan Town like this now, how can you ask me to explain it to the county party committee and county government! Comrade Liu Qingyu, you have disappointed me and everyone so much. ”
As soon as Shi Zhenqiang finished speaking, Hu Guangyuan immediately said: "Yes, Comrade Liu Qingyu, your work organization this time is really too lacking in level and efficiency, you see that the county town of Chengguan Town, all kinds of work are carried out in an orderly manner, and the leaders of the county party committee and county government have given high praise, Comrade Liu Qingyu, I suggest you take a good look and learn, you can't do it behind closed doors!"
After Hu Guangyuan finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire conference room suddenly became tense, obviously, all the party committee members saw it at this moment, Shi Zhenqiang's intention was very obvious, this was to catch Liu Qingyu as a scapegoat, and be responsible for the disaster suffered by Guanshan Town this time, this move is definitely insidious and shameless enough, but I have to say that this move is also the most beneficial to him. It is also a very beneficial thing for everyone, after all, there is such a big disaster, there must be someone to be responsible, it is better to find out Liu Qingyu to be responsible than to be responsible yourself, and many committee members at the scene were silent. At critical moments, self-protection is the best. At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Qingyu's face.
After Qin Ruijie listened to Shi Zhenqiang's words, her face looked very ugly, she had a very clear grasp of Shi Zhenqiang's psychology, but she knew that Shi Zhenqiang's power in the town was very strong, and although she admired Liu Qingyu's character of serving the people very much, but considering her identity, she didn't want to be tied to Liu Qingyu for the time being, so she could only keep silent with anger in her heart.
Under the gaze of everyone, Liu Qingyu slowly raised his head, his eyes flashed, he suddenly slapped the table, stood up and pointed at the tip of the nose of Shi Zhenqiang, secretary of the town party committee, and said coldly: "Comrade Shi Zhenqiang, I have to say, you are really shameless and insidious enough, but what I want to tell you is that I don't care how shameless and insidious you are, but you better not use it on me Liu Qingyu, otherwise, I will make you regret not being at the beginning!" You just kept saying that I, Liu Qingyu, were ineffective in organizing flood fighting and rescue work, so I would like to ask Comrade Shi Zhenqiang, do you know what kind of work I and Liu Qingyu have done? Do you know what the disaster situation is in Guanshan Town? What is the loss of our Guanshan Town? How many people have been killed or injured in Guanshan Town? How many supplies are still lacking in Guanshan Town? Dear Secretary Shi, Comrade Shi Zhenqiang! Do you know what kind of work we have? Do you dare to give me an affirmative answer?
After listening to Liu Qingyu's words, Shi Zhenqiang could only keep silent with a gloomy face, he didn't expect that this young man would suddenly get mad, and even pointed at himself with his hand, the most important thing is that he didn't know anything about what Liu Qingyu said, he couldn't answer now, but he couldn't be deterred by Liu Qingyu's momentum, otherwise it would be a heavy blow to his prestige, which he couldn't tolerate. So he left and stood up, brushed Liu Qingyu's hand away, and said angrily: "Liu Qingyu, what are you doing? Slapping the table loudly proves that you have done a good job? If this is possible, what else do you want our party committee to do? You sit down for me! If you have something to say." ”
Liu Qingyu slowly withdrew his right hand, but he still stood and looked at Shi Zhenqiang coldly and said: "Secretary Shi, don't play this trick of diverting the topic, it's useless, now please answer my question just now, do you know what kind of situation our Guanshan Town is like now?"
In Shi Zhenqiang's view, a mature official should immediately restrain his anger after he gets angry and continue to discuss calmly, but he misunderstood Liu Qingyu, Liu Qingyu was born as a soldier, and he always likes to go straight and doesn't like to beat around the bush, so his criticism is of no use to Liu Qingyu, and Liu Qingyu still chases after him. In this case, Shi Zhenqiang also saw that if he didn't answer Liu Qingyu's question, I am afraid that Liu Qingyu would not give up, but Liu Qingyu's question could not stop him, he just said lightly: "I just came back from a meeting in the county, and you haven't reported to me yet, so I naturally don't know what the situation in Ludao Town is." ”
Shi Zhenqiang played a Tai Chi pusher, and Liu Qingyu's first wave of questioning was invalid. After finishing speaking, the corners of Shi Zhenqiang's mouth showed a faint sneer of disdain, and he secretly said in his heart: "Liu Qingyu, you are a little hairy child, compared to Lao Tzu, you are still tender and ruthless! Officialdom is not something you can mix with reason." ”
However, Shi Zhenqiang never expected that as soon as his idea came out, Liu Qingyu made another move.
After Liu Qingyu heard Shi Zhenqiang finish speaking, he just smiled faintly and said: "Secretary Shi, if you have to say this, I will reluctantly agree with your reason, but I want to ask you, three days ago, when this heavy rain had just begun, did I personally call you and report to you that there was going to be a heavy rainstorm here in Guanshan Town, and remind you to hold a special meeting on flood control to discuss this matter, did you answer me! If you had convened a meeting in accordance with my proposal and mobilized all the town party committees, how could we have been so passive in the flood prevention work in Guanshan Town? Seeing that the Jinglin Reservoir was about to open the sluice gates and release water, but you, Secretary Shi, and a few members of the party committee, said that they were going to the county to hold a meeting, what kind of meeting was held? Is the meeting important? Is it important for the common people, the importance of flood fighting and disaster relief, or the importance of holding what kind of meeting you call important? Don't tell me any high-sounding reasons, Comrade Shi Zhenqiang, I think you are simply cowardly, afraid, you are worried that you will be washed away by the flood, and I have received accurate information, your family has already been transferred, Comrade Shi Zhenqiang, I want to ask you, what qualifications do cadres like you have to accuse me Liu Qingyu! To say something unpleasant, Comrade Shi Zhenqiang, you don't look like a gentleman at all. Do you know that in the past three days or so, I have been in charge of the reservoir dam, and Comrade Qin Ruijie has been responsible for the construction of tents and the evacuation of many people in Tianwangling, Comrade Shi Zhenqiang, members of the committee, let's take a good look, Comrade Qin Ruijie is a female comrade who is only in her twenties, she has taken on such a heavy work without complaint, is it easy for her? But she has no complaints! Many comrades here, don't you feel ashamed to be a big man? Are you worthy of the word man? Are you still a man?"
