Names: Uncle Zhao Mengsheng, Father-in-law Pei Yihong

Chung Cheng-kuo put down his pen and tapped the table lightly with his fingertips.

With a calm expression and after much deliberation, he said, "Xiao Ai, listen to me, we absolutely cannot go along with Liang Ping's wishes in this matter."

The monkey is now eyeing not just Zhao Dehan, but the entire energy system is involved.

My opinion is very clear: we cannot arrest people during the day, and even less can we openly arrest people in the office.

"Dad, why?" Zhong Xiaoai also wanted her man to improve.

The opportunity has arrived; who would want to miss it?

Zhong Zhengguo sighed, "Xiao Ai, making a move in broad daylight is too much of a commotion. It will make the Energy Department lose face and could easily lead to conflict."

If the monkey were to try and catch someone now, and Song Yunhui or Lu Xiaola refused to release them, what would happen?

It's also possible that even monkeys couldn't get through the gates of the Energy Department.

"Dad, aren't you overthinking this? Is it really necessary?" Zhong Xiaoai asked, somewhat puzzled.

Zhong Zhengguo looked up at Zhong Xiaoai and said, "Xiaoai, we should act quietly at night to minimize the negative impact."

Call Qin Siyuan and convey my message.

Before leaving get off work today, I will complete the arrest procedures for Zhao Dehan.

As for Ding Yizhen, let's put him aside for now.

Let's first take a look at just how deep the waters of the energy system really are.

If all goes well, we can open the gateway to Handong through Ding Yizhen.

He really is a cunning and shrewd old fox, calculating every step with meticulous planning.

Chung Cheng-kuo's real target was not Ting Yi-chen, but the energy sector.

The relationship between first and last.

Focus on the key points.

Chung Cheng-kuo had a very clever plan.

Zhong Xiaoai finally understood her father Zhong Zhengguo's intention.

"Okay, Dad. I'm going back now."

Zhong Xiaoai walked away slowly.

The sound of high heels clicking on the floor tiles was crisp and monotonous.

Her face remained expressionless, but she sighed inwardly.

My father played this game of chess with both steadiness and ruthlessness.

Older gingers are more spicy.

He returned to his office and closed the door behind him.

Zhong Xiaoai picked up the landline and dialed a number.

The phone rang twice before being answered.

Qin Siyuan's steady and deep voice came through the receiver.

"Hello, this is Qin Siyuan."

Zhong Xiaoai didn't stand on ceremony. "Director Qin, I'm Zhong Xiaoai."

On the other end of the phone, Qin Siyuan rubbed the receiver.

The Zhong family members must never be neglected.

"Director Zhong, please speak."

Normally speaking, a deputy minister like myself wouldn't need to rely on Zhong Xiaoai at all.

However, Zhong Xiaoai's father is Zhong Zhengguo.

Now that his brother-in-law Tian Guofu is still a member of the Zhong family, Qin Siyuan is caught in the middle and is in a difficult position.

Zhong Xiaoai relayed the information directly, without embellishment, "Director Qin, I just met my father."

Let's delay Zhao Dehan's paperwork.

You can't give it to Hou Liangping before you leave work.

My father's idea is to take action after nightfall to avoid escalating conflicts within the energy system.

The meaning is quite obvious.

The formalities are completed, and I'll keep them for now. I'll give them to Hou Liangping after get off work.

Qin Siyuan's mind worked quickly, and he instantly grasped Zhong Zhengguo's intentions.

To control the situation.

He really is an old fox.

"Director Zhong, rest assured, I will carry out Secretary Zhong's instructions word for word."

I was planning to leave work early, but it looks like I'll have to wait until after get off work to leave.

Zhong Xiaoai gave a soft "hmm" and said nothing more, "Thank you for your hard work, Director Qin."

the other side.

Handong Province.

Jingzhou.

The provincial government compound.

Office of the Executive Vice Governor.

Qi Tongwei leaned back slightly in his office chair.

A well-fitting dark-colored jacket.

The office is constantly visited.

The newly arrived provincial expert, Sha Ruijin, went to conduct research in the field again.

Everyone wanted to curry favor with Qi Tongwei.

Without him.

They have the ability, the resources, and the projects.

A typical example of having three things.

The Director of the Department of Education, Zhou Zhongping; the Director of the Department of Land and Resources, Gu Mingyuan; the Director of the Department of Agriculture, Xu Zhenbang; the Director of the Department of Culture, Jiang Bowen; and the Director of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, Lü Qitai, were listed at the front.

Because of the trip to Lincheng, I witnessed Qi Tongwei's extraordinary nature.

It was ostensibly a routine work report, but everyone knew the real reason behind it.

The newly appointed executive vice governor is stationed at the provincial government; this is a gesture of respect and a show of support.

Qi Tongwei handled people and situations with perfect tact, neither trying to curry favor nor deliberately distancing himself.

He came from a humble background and worked his way up through the ranks. He knew all the tricks, difficulties, and pain points in education, land and resources, agriculture, culture and tourism, and industry and commerce.

The first person to enter was Zhou Zhongping, the director of the Education Department.

Zhou Zhongping held a research report in his hand, and after sitting down and exchanging ideas, he...

Qi Tongwei felt that looking at the results was not very meaningful; he was more interested in knowing something different.

He then asked, "Director Zhou, what difficulties is the education department facing?"

"Governor Qi, I originally intended to only report good news and not bad news, but since you asked, I will bite the bullet and speak."

The conditions of schools in our urban area of ​​Handong are acceptable in all aspects, but the problems in the counties and districts below are numerous.

Old school buildings leak rain and there is insufficient heating in winter, making it difficult to retain teachers in rural areas.

Teachers in some districts and counties haven't received their performance bonuses for three months, and many key teachers want to transfer to Jingzhou and Lüzhou; the school is losing its teachers.

Qi Tongwei slowly tapped the table with his fingertips. "Director Zhou, actually I noticed the relevant issues when I went to Lincheng last time."

The desks are old, the walls are cracked, and there are problems with classroom heating.

Prioritize addressing teachers' compensation issues in the districts and counties below.

Education is a fundamental aspect of people's livelihood and cannot be compromised.

Next week at the provincial government's executive meeting, we will discuss education funding separately. I believe that education funding for the new year must be tilted towards rural areas, and should be given priority in review and disbursement.

You send someone to compile a list of schools whose buildings need renovation...

Once the funds are approved, I will have the audit department conduct random checks on their flow.

"Not a single penny of the education funds can be misused; anyone who tries to embezzle it will be dealt with."

The pent-up frustration in Zhou Zhongping's chest dissipated instantly, and his brows and eyes relaxed.

"Thank you, Governor Qi."

He thought of everything for himself.

This trip was definitely worth it.

As Zhou Zhongping walked out of Qi Tongwei's office, his steps became lighter.

The second person to enter was Gu Mingyuan, the director of the Land and Resources Department.

Gu Mingyuan was straightforward and disliked beating around the bush. "Governor Qi, the land approval process in Handong is too rigid. For a piece of industrial land, it requires signatures from the district, city, department, and province, making the process lengthy and complicated."

For investors from other places, the process alone can take one or two months, or even half a year.

Many businesses find it troublesome and turn to neighboring provinces, effectively pushing away our cash cows.

Qi Tongwei pointed out incisively: "I understand. The land approval process is still using the old methods, with too many red tape and procedures, which can't keep up with the current pace of investment promotion."

Go back and draft a streamlined plan: simplify the approval process for industrial land, regulate and control commercial land, and shorten the approval process as much as possible.

Qi Tongwei then changed the subject, saying, "Some land approval personnel, some of whom are just minor section chiefs without any rank, have repeatedly engaged in extortion, bribery, and obstruction despite repeated prohibitions."

We must also take decisive action.

Keep a close eye on the staff at the service windows and those handling approvals.

Anyone who dares to obstruct businesses or ordinary citizens without cause will be dealt with directly according to regulations.

Those who should be arrested should be arrested, and those who should be sentenced by the court should be sentenced.

The provincial party committee and government will back you up, so you don't need to have so many worries.
