Family connections: From special recruitment by the county committee to the pinnacle of power

Xu Hansheng smiled as he accepted the research report from Zhang Chenguang, handing it to Zhao Dongxu and Wang Yu respectively. He then said to Zhang Chenguang, "Secretary Zhang, thank you."

Seeing Zhao Dongxu and Wang Yu diligently checking the data, Zhang Chenguang turned to Xu Hansheng and said, "Section Chief Xu, you must be tired from your journey. Why don't you come to my office for a cup of tea to soothe your throat?"

Xu Hansheng thought for a moment, then stood up, shook hands with Zhang Chenguang, and said, "Secretary Zhang is too kind. Thank you, Secretary Zhang. I will gladly accept your offer."

After saying that, Xu Hansheng followed Zhang Chenguang and walked towards his office.

The rest of the group stayed in the conference room, accompanying Zhao Dongxu and the others to verify the information.

Wang Yu and Lin Mingyuan had visited Longping Town before, and Wang Yu had personally investigated some of the data, especially the land data, which left a deep impression on him.

However, when Wang Yu looked through the documents submitted by the Longping Town Land Office, he couldn't help but frown.

Clearly, the information submitted by the land bureau did not match the results of Wang Yu's own investigation.

In particular, there is a naturally formed large pool at the foot of the hillside where the cattle farm is located. The environment around the pool is very nice, so when Wang Yu came last time, he and Lin Mingyuan specifically measured it out together.

The area is clearly four square kilometers, but the land bureau's records show it as two square kilometers.

That's a huge difference.

Although Wang Yu hadn't looked at the other documents in detail, based on this one document alone, he was convinced that Longping Town's report was nothing more than a copy of data from previous years.

If we directly quote Longping Town's report, then it's completely useless.

The report was submitted to Qi Hongchang, and then the county party committee reviewed and approved it. As soon as construction started, they found that two square kilometers had been added out of nowhere. Isn't this a joke?

"Excuse me, which one of you is the director of the land administration office?"

Wang Yu raised his head and looked at the people sitting in the conference room.

"I am the director of the land management office, and my name is Liu Xiaoguang."

A middle-aged man in his mid-thirties stood up and looked at Wang Yu with a smile.

Wang Yu frowned and said, "Director Liu, could you please come over here for a moment? I have a few questions I'd like to ask you."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoguang walked around the chair and quickly approached Wang Yu, saying, "Director Wang, please feel free to ask me anything."

Wang Yu waved his hand and said, "Don't call me Director, I'm not a Director. Just call me Comrade Wang Yu."

After saying that, Wang Yu pointed to the numbers on the data and said to Liu Xiaoguang, "Director Liu, I personally measured this pool a while ago. The area around the pool was clearly four square kilometers, so how did it become two square kilometers?"

This……

Liu Xiaoguang blinked, and for a moment, he couldn't answer either.

Actually, it was indeed two square kilometers at first, but in the last two years, for some reason, the pond seems to have gotten bigger and bigger.

But since it was a wasteland, the land administration department did not specifically measure it.

While surveying the land around the cattle farm, we also included this pond in the count.

The person responsible for copying the data was careless and wrote down the old data without careful investigation.

Two square kilometers have been lost for no reason!

Isn't this utter nonsense?

Although Liu Xiaoguang was cursing inwardly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead when faced with Wang Yu's questioning.

Seeing that Liu Xiaoguang's expression was off, Dai Shujie frowned and asked, "Director Liu, what exactly happened?"

Liu Xiaoguang glanced at Dai Shujie, swallowed hard, and said, "Um... Mayor Dai, there's a pond next to that piece of land in Xingping Village, it seems to be connected to groundwater, right?"

"I don't know how that pool got bigger every day. When we measured it last year, it was only two square kilometers. It...it's only been a year, and it's already...twice as big..."

fart!

Upon hearing this, Dai Shujie immediately offered an excuse.

What kind of pond doubles in size in a year?

It's clearly the land office; they've never remeasured it. The data on it is probably from ten or twenty years ago.

But even knowing that's the truth, Dai Shujie couldn't expose it in front of Wang Yu and the others.

Zhang Chenguang clearly wanted to benefit from this incident, but he provided false data. Isn't this a slap in the face for Secretary Zhang?

"Then arrange for someone to remeasure immediately!"

Dai Shujie glared at Liu Xiaoguang before turning to Wang Yu and saying, "Comrade Wang Yu, I'm really sorry, but because that area is all wasteland, we haven't been able to carefully measure the area around the pond over the years."

"No problem, Director Liu will send someone to remeasure it and give you the latest data."

Wang Yuchong chuckled twice on behalf of Shujie.

He glanced at the other documents on the table; they were indeed thick, enough for Wang Yu to copy for a week.

The problem is, only God knows how much of this data has been carefully verified!

Isn't this just dawdling and wasting time?

After much deliberation, Wang Yu took the two sets of data and went directly to Zhang Chenguang's office.

After knocking on the door a few times, Wang Yu pushed it open and went inside.

At that moment, Xu Hansheng was chatting and laughing with Zhang Chenguang when Wang Yu pushed the door open and entered. Xu Hansheng raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is it?"

Wang Yu glanced at Zhang Chenguang, cleared his throat, and whispered, "Section Chief Xu, the data from the Longping Town Land Office is inaccurate. I think we still need to conduct our own investigation and measurement..."

"Otherwise, copying it down would just be a waste of time. Then, when the report is submitted, it'll be difficult to explain to Secretary Qi..."

Although Wang Yu had lowered his voice, Zhang Chenguang still heard every single word.

Now, Zhang Chenguang was also a little embarrassed.

Just a minute ago, he had assured Xu Hansheng that their town had done a lot of meticulous work in the past two weeks, and all the data had been re-examined.

He also told Xu Hansheng that he and Wang Yu and others didn't need to go down to the villages and hamlets to suffer; they could simply import his data and hand it over to Secretary Qi.

In the blink of an eye, such a huge blunder occurred, and Zhang Chenguang felt his face burning.

Xu Hansheng licked his lips and glanced at Zhang Chenguang. He saw that the latter's face was very ugly, and it was likely that Wang Yu's words had reached Zhang Chenguang's ears.

Thinking of this, Xu Hansheng coughed lightly, gently nudged Wang Yu who was whispering in his ear, took the two reports from his hands, glanced at them, and then suddenly smiled and said, "Little Wang, in our work, we must respect the work of our brother units and not blindly deny them."

"After all, Longping Town is so big, and the land office has limited manpower. It's impossible to cover everything. Besides, I've seen that piece of land before, and the terrain is uneven."

"If the ruler is suspended high, the area will naturally be smaller. If it is close to the ground and the ruler is supported by a small mound, then the data will naturally be inaccurate."

"When you encounter this situation, don't argue about who's right or wrong. You can mark it and then conduct an on-site investigation together."

Wang Yu paused for a moment before nodding repeatedly and saying, "Uh... ah, right, right, I used a tape measure last time. I might have measured it wrong. I'll go and check it again later."
