Right path to power

"What are they doing? Can the urban management officers just beat people up like that?"

"He's just singing a song."

"Exactly, this is too much."

"Sigh, the crackdown on organized crime should target these guys; they're all like bandits."

"If County Magistrate Lin sees this, he'll definitely teach them a lesson."

The onlookers were indignant, and some had already taken out their phones to take pictures.

At this moment, the leader stepped forward, one hand on his hip, the other pointing at the crowd, and swearing, "What are you doing? We're just enforcing the law. No filming allowed, or we'll confiscate your phones!"

Seeing his fierce face and arrogant demeanor, everyone subconsciously took a step back.

As the saying goes: "Set up a stall to make a living, and scatter as soon as you see the city management officers."

"Who gave you the right to beat someone? Don't you know the county has been cracking down on organized crime? Let him go right now, do you even want to keep your jobs?"

An angry voice rang out from behind.

The leader was taken aback when he heard the voice. He turned around and saw a young man standing to the side with a face full of anger. He immediately laughed.

There are actually people who want to stand up for justice; they're both naive and foolish.

Besides, isn't the job of urban management officers to maintain the appearance of the county?

What's wrong with fulfilling your duties by following the leader's instructions and working overtime?

"Kid, don't get involved if it's none of your business, or you'll get yourself into trouble."

Although I had heard that urban management officers were called "street bandits" by the people, I still had some doubts before seeing them. But after seeing them with my own eyes, I realized that the rumors were true.

"What do you mean it has nothing to do with me? I'm Wang Xinghong from the county government office. You'd better release him right now, apologize to him in person, and write a statement when you get back..."

"Hahaha, what a joke! You think you can just release people like that? I'd be more like the county magistrate!"

The leader hadn't heard of Wang Xinghong before, but thought he was quite bold for daring to impersonate someone from the county government, so he interrupted him.

Wang Xinghong's face was full of anger, and he was about to say something more when a furious shout came from behind him.

"Zhang Jianxiong, what are you doing?"

Peng Xueyi, the director of the county's urban management bureau, jumped out of a taxi that had just come to a stop. Seeing Zhang Jianxiong, the captain of the first squadron of the urban management bureau, looking arrogant, he angrily shouted at him.

He thought to himself: It's one thing for him to be courting death, but he can't drag me down with him!

I just received a call from Wang Xinghong, the county magistrate's secretary. He was dealing with personal matters at the time, and I was immediately thrown into a panic. So I took a taxi straight to Changning Street.

In the past few days, five section chiefs have been brought to justice, and one has been transferred to a low-level government office. The heads of all units are living in fear, afraid that one day they will run into County Chief Lin's hands without warning.

Like everyone else, Peng Xueyi immediately convened an enlarged meeting of the bureau's party group, solemnly emphasizing work discipline and conduct. He demanded that all staff members thoroughly understand the latest work requirements of the county party committee and government, deeply study the spirit of the county-wide warning education conference for leading cadres, rectify conduct and enforce discipline, and go all out to do their jobs well.

After the meeting, everyone in the company became tense and mobilized.

Although urban management work is not easy, problems with the county's appearance and enforcement methods are all concrete manifestations of his poor management.

Therefore, he specifically emphasized the need for civilized law enforcement, patient guidance, and listening to public opinion, and stressed that conflicts must not be escalated.

Who would have thought that something bad would happen just two days later?

What's worse, it was actually the county magistrate's secretary who called him.

What does this mean?

Whatever it represents, it's definitely not a good thing.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have directly notified him to come to the scene.

Zhang Jianxiong was very sensitive to Peng Xueyi's voice. Although he hadn't seen Peng Xueyi yet, he trembled with fright upon hearing his voice and turned around to look for him.

Peng Xueyi jogged over and immediately saw Wang Xinghong standing to the side. He quickly bowed and said, "Secretary Wang, may I ask where County Magistrate Lin is?"

Wang Xinghong said calmly, "The county magistrate said to handle things here first."

"Oh, okay, okay..."

Peng Xueyi instantly understood—County Chief Lin was watching from somewhere, so the only option now was to sacrifice others to save himself.

When Zhang Jianxiong saw Peng Xueyi bowing and scraping to the young man from before, he was dumbfounded and filled with regret.

Is he really from the county government office? Or is he the secretary of some high-ranking leader?

He was about to step forward to take remedial measures when Peng Xueyi's words stunned him.

"Zhang Jianxiong, you are suspended from duty from now on. Further action will be taken after the bureau has completed its investigation." Peng Xueyi said sternly, turning to the others: "And you, release him immediately. You are all suspended from duty and will be investigated as well."

Since he was certain that Lin Xiao was there, he absolutely could not hold back, otherwise Lin Xiao would definitely deal with him later.

Then, he walked up to the guitar-playing man, bowed, and said, "I'm sorry, it's our fault for not managing things properly and causing you to suffer. We'll take you to the hospital for a check-up later, and we'll cover all the expenses..."

"Who are you? Give me back my speaker."

Peng Xueyi said sincerely, "I am the director of the Urban Management Bureau. Don't worry, I will return everything to you, and this will never happen again."

In fact, this wasn't just a boast—if there were a next time, he probably wouldn't be able to stay in his position as bureau chief for long.

"You guys, go and move the stuff over here for them," Peng Xueyi shouted angrily at the urban management officers beside him.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Jianxiong rushed forward and hurriedly lifted the speaker in front of the guitarist, bowing and apologizing: "I'm sorry, we were wrong, please forgive us."

However, the guitarist didn't even glance at him, but instead squatted down to check if the speaker was damaged.

clap clap-

A round of applause suddenly broke out in the room.

Peng Xueyi finally breathed a sigh of relief, leaned closer to Wang Xinghong again, and whispered, "Secretary Wang, everything has been taken care of. Can I go and report to County Chief Lin in person?"

Wang Xinghong nodded slightly: "Let's go, the county magistrate is waiting."

He had only taken a few steps when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and immediately answered, "Okay, I understand. I'll go ask him right away."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xinghong walked towards the man with the guitar.

"Hello, my name is Wang Xinghong, from the county government office. Our County Chief Lin would like to invite you over for a chat. Would that be convenient for you?"

The guitar-playing man paused for a moment, then quickly nodded: "Sure, sure."

"Okay, please follow me."

As he spoke, Wang Xinghong led the way, Peng Xueyi quickly followed, and the guitar-playing man dragged his speaker behind him.

Seeing this, Peng Xueyi turned around to help.

Wang Xinghong glanced at it, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth—Old fox!

Upon reaching the restaurant upstairs, Peng Xueyi immediately spotted Lin Xiao sitting by the window. He quickly released his grip on the speaker, strode forward, and bowed, saying, "County Chief, it's my fault for not doing my job properly. I've disturbed your meal and caused you trouble. I've already taken care of it..."

Lin Xiao waved her hand to interrupt, and said calmly, "Sit down and have a couple of drinks."

"yes....."

Peng Xueyi hesitated for a moment, but quickly sat down. He took the initiative to pick up the wine bottle and fill the glasses of Lin Xiao, Xie Chenglin, and Wang Xinghong, then poured himself a glass, and finally poured a glass for the guitar-playing man.

The guitar-playing man looked at Lin Xiao and Xie Chenglin with a puzzled expression. Judging from the seating arrangement, the young man was indeed sitting in the main seat, but judging from his age, the middle-aged man next to him should be the county magistrate.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Hello, I am Lin Xiao, the acting county head of Fuchuan County. I have seen what just happened, and I apologize to you here."

As he spoke, he raised his glass.

The guitar-playing man was stunned. After a few seconds, he hurriedly picked up his glass, clinked it with Lin Xiao's, and drank it all in one gulp. He then smiled and said, "County Chief Lin, you flatter me. My name is Chen Mo, and I'm a street musician. The matter has been resolved, and I haven't suffered any losses."

Lin Xiao nodded: "Director Peng will personally take you to the hospital for a check-up later."

"Really, it's not necessary. I'm fine."

"There's no need to argue about that."

Chen Mo had no choice but to nod.

"By the way, I just listened to it too. Your song has a pop-folk feel to it, and it's quite nice. I hope you can sing here more often in the future."

Hearing someone praise his song made Chen Mo feel as if the pain in his body had disappeared.

Then, Lin Xiao turned to Peng Xueyi: "Urban management work must be patient and warm. Changning Street is a place for the public to enjoy entertainment and leisure, so management should reflect humanization rather than blindly copying others."

Those who just started the fight are no longer suitable for this job. The team leader should also be dealt with seriously. They shouldn't act recklessly just because they have some power. They should understand that power is actually given by the people.

I'm giving you a week. If the rectification isn't satisfactory, I will have the relevant departments intervene and conduct a special inspection. At that time, everything will be dealt with strictly and severely.

These words filled Peng Xueyi with dread, as if a knife were hanging over his head, ready to fall at any moment.

"Please rest assured, County Chief, I will definitely rectify the situation and build a warm-hearted urban management team. If I don't do a good job, you can dismiss me."

"If you don't do a good job, it won't just be a matter of being dismissed. You'd better watch yourself."

Faced with this undisguised "threat," Peng Xueyi's wine glass trembled, and the full glass spilled out.
