In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

The scene was incredibly chaotic.

Li Dakang was extremely annoyed by what he heard.

"Quiet!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent; Li Dakang's ability to intimidate was still very strong.

"What's all the fuss about! Zheng Xipo, you are the workers' representative. What General Manager Gao said makes sense and is in accordance with the law and regulations. Although Cai Chenggong tricked you into signing the agreement, what does that have to do with the Shanshui Group?"

We've already said that the government will provide advance funding for the resettlement of your factory's employees. If this isn't acceptable, then that isn't acceptable. Do you want the Jingzhou Municipal Government to disregard the law and facts and forcibly return the shares of your Dafeng Factory to you from Shanshui Group?

Even if Shanshui Group is willing to refund, what about the money?

"The 5,500 yuan mortgage and 45 million yuan resettlement compensation must be repaid to Shanshui Group. Who will pay for this?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xipo began to mutter under his breath.

"Secretary Li, since you've already gotten the government to advance the resettlement fees for our factory, why don't you just give those fees to Dafeng Factory and that's it?"

Li Dakang was so angry he almost laughed.

Paying resettlement fees for Dafeng Factory is already like dancing on a knife's edge; it's a way to protect people's livelihoods, and if bad debts occur in the future, the punishment from higher authorities will be lighter.

But if Li Dakang dares to give this money to the Shanshui Group, he'll be fired tomorrow! This is blatant squandering of public funds, and it's the kind that's gone forever!

"Zheng Xipo!"

Li Dakang's roar startled Zheng Xipo.

"Let me tell you, it is illegal to advance this money to your Dafeng Factory workers."

"If it weren't for the need to resettle the workers, the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee and Government wouldn't have made the advance payment at all. Don't push your luck!"

"Secretary Li, you only know how to speak for Shanshui Group. You want to take away Dafeng Factory's shares with less than 100 million yuan, and we workers haven't even received the money yet?"

Secretary Li, are you aware that the land for Dafeng Factory is to be changed from industrial land to commercial land?

"Even just selling a piece of land, the Shanshui Group can make a fortune!"

boom!

This is actually the fundamental reason why Dafeng Factory was unwilling to accept government funding; money can be a powerful motivator.

If Dafeng Factory can get its shares back and then sell the land, each worker will receive a large sum of money, especially the shareholders.

Li Dakang is still processing this information.

"What did you say? The industrial land of Dafeng Factory is going to be changed to commercial land? Who said that?!"

Li Dakang's voice was heavy, while Gao Xiaoqin's expression was extremely unpleasant. Who had leaked this news? Their Shanshui Group had clearly chosen to keep it a secret.

Zheng Xipo's eyes held a hint of disdain.

"Secretary Li, who else could have said that? It all came from the Shanshui Group. They have plenty of connections; changing the land use rights is a piece of cake for them."

Do you think our workers would agree to this?

Upon hearing this, Li Dakang's gaze fixed intently on Gao Xiaoqin.

"Mr. Gao, please explain whether this matter is true or false."

Gao Xiaoqin took a deep breath.

"Secretary Dakang, this matter is an internal secret of our Shanshui Group, and I choose to recuse myself."

Without wasting words, Li Dakang looked directly at the director of the Municipal Land and Resources Bureau.

"Director Meng, you answer this! When was the industrial land of Dafeng Factory changed to commercial land?"

Director Meng, whose name was called, stood up shakily.

He glanced at Gao Xiaoqin first, then replied, "Secretary Dakang, that's not true! The land of Dafeng Factory has always been industrial land. Changing it to commercial land requires strict review and payment of the difference in land price. I don't know where the workers of Dafeng Factory got this information; it's utter nonsense!"

In reality, Director Meng was already sweating profusely. The amendment documents had been signed, stamped, and handed over to the Shanshui Group, but the Shanshui Group hadn't paid any fees at all...

However, Director Meng had a backup plan and did not change the land use information of Dafeng Factory on the internet.

Therefore, they can still stubbornly deny it.

Li Dakang had already sensed something was wrong, but he still chose to continue along with Director Meng's words.

"Zheng Xipo, our Land and Resources Bureau has already made it clear that the land use nature of Dafeng Factory has not been changed. What else do you want to say!"

Zheng Xipo was stunned by the question.

"Hmph! I don't believe it. It must be your Jingzhou officials and the Shanshui Group lying to us!"

Playing the rogue was Zheng Xipo's last resort.

Li Dakang stared intently at Zheng Xipo with an icy expression, just as he was about to reprimand him when a familiar voice rang out from the room.

"Secretary Dakang, isn't your handling of this matter a bit too arbitrary? Just because Director Meng says there's no such thing, does that mean there really isn't? Has any investigation or evidence been collected? Furthermore, the workers at Dafeng Factory simply want to obtain the benefits that are rightfully theirs. Aren't there any other ways to achieve a win-win situation for both Shanshui Group and Dafeng Factory?"

A series of questions left Li Dakang completely bewildered.

"Yi Xuexi! Vice Mayor Yi, are you implying there's a problem with how I handled this?"

Upon hearing this, Yi Xuexi stood up.

"Secretary Dakang, our organization values ​​democracy, and we should boldly raise any problems that exist."

I am the Party Secretary of Guangming District. Dafeng Factory is under the jurisdiction of Guangming District, and as its Party Secretary, I have the responsibility and obligation to fight for the interests of the workers at Dafeng Factory!

All the members of the municipal party committee were stunned.

That's really brave!

For several years now, this has been the first time an official in Jingzhou has dared to speak to Li Dakang like this.

"That's right, what Secretary Yi said is exactly what we workers at Dafeng Factory are fighting for. Secretary Yi, you are a righteous and just official; our Dafeng Factory is counting on you to uphold justice!"

Zheng Xipo, being incredibly shrewd, immediately latched onto the situation.

Yi Xuexi felt smug upon hearing the praise, and his overflowing sense of justice filled him with confidence.

"District Chief Chen, say something! Secretary Yi was able to fight for our Dafeng Factory's interests, so District Chief Chen, our Dafeng Factory needs your support just as much!"

Zheng Xipo's next sentence put Chen Hai, who had chosen to remain invisible, in a very difficult position.

If they don't speak up, it means they don't care about the workers and ordinary people; if they do speak up, they will offend Li Dakang and get themselves into a mess.

Chen Hai's expression was very unpleasant.

At that very moment, Yi Xuexi looked at him with disdain.

In a flash, Chen Hai made his decision.

Everyone looked and exclaimed, "Holy crap, a second warrior?"

"Comrade Zheng Xipo, rest assured, as the district head, I stand on the side of the people. I will definitely fight for the legitimate interests of Dafeng Factory to the very end!"

Li Dakang stood on the stage watching Chen Hai and Yi Xuexi stand up. He was initially very angry, but now he suddenly felt that this was a good thing. Someone wanted to be the first to stand up.

Hmph, then so be it!

"Great! I admire Vice Mayor Yi and District Chief Chen's work attitude. I am actually very busy as the Party Secretary. Since Vice Mayor Yi and District Chief Chen both think that my solution as the Party Secretary is inappropriate, then it's simple. From now on, the conflict between Dafeng Factory and Shanshui Group will be handled by your Guangming District Party Committee and District Government."

Let's wait and see if Vice Mayor Yi and District Chief Chen's proposed solution can satisfy all parties!

Li Dakang emphasized the last word!

Some of them were even chilling...
