Chapter 7: Leveraging Strength

After Liu Chenglong finished speaking, the entire conference room suddenly became dull.

Shi Zhenqiang's face turned y ī N Qing was uncertain, and the anger in his heart had already surged to the top of his head. His eyes were filled with resentment as he looked at Liu Chenglong. However, Hu Guangyuan and Wang Xuewen's faces were also very ugly. They did not expect that Liu Chenglong's words were so sharp, and each sentence directly pointed to the core of the problem. Especially, the characterization of not being a man or a man made a few people feel very embarrassed.

The shameful thing has been done, but no one wants to be known to others, especially the leaders like Shi Zhenqiang. They prefer to be supported and supported by others. Even if there is dissatisfaction, it must be kept in their hearts because it is the official rule in their eyes. Because they are leaders.

But Liu Chenglong doesn't believe in this evil at all! But he happened to come and slap me! And it was playing with a loud bang!

At this moment, apart from the Minister of Armed Forces, Yin ch ū N Hua, Propaganda Committee Member Jiang CH ū Except for the two people who have been vigorously assisting Qin Ruijie, the faces of the other party committees are not very attractive, and they have all been directly slapped by Liu Chenglong.

Silence, suppressed silence. No one wants to speak up first.

At this moment, Liu Chenglong once again broke this silence. He looked coldly at Shi Zhenqiang and said, "Comrade Shi Zhenqiang, don't be too strict in your behavior. Don't treat others as fools. I, Liu Chenglong, have a background in the military, and I am a single minded person. If you are truly a member of the Lao Bai family, if you point to the east, I will never go west. If you ask me to catch a dog, I will never go and catch a chicken. However, if you want to use some unfounded charges to harass me, I, Liu Chenglong, will accompany you to the end. If you dare to continue to deny that I, Secretary Qin, and others are actually working for the party this time, I will leave here. I, Liu Chenglong, will never agree to the credit of the committee member. I am not asking for credit from you to the county. I do not care about those false names, but I absolutely do not allow others to pour dirty water on us! I absolutely do not allow those who do their job to be criticized, while deserters who do not do their job are pointing fingers and making mistakes nearby! Don't even think about it! " After Liu Chenglong finished speaking, he sat down directly and looked straight at Shi Zhenqiang without any compromise.

At this moment, under the sharp gaze of Liu Chenglong, he really dared not act rashly. Because he was very clear in his heart that Liu Chenglong had announced in advance that it would rain heavily in Guanshan Town, and this incident must not be widely known. Otherwise, he might really lose face this time, especially if it escalated, which would not benefit him in any way. So, he could only temporarily extinguish the first step plan of punishing Liu Chenglong as soon as he arrived in town, and wait for the opportunity to execute the second step plan in the future before taking Liu Chenglong down. After all, in the current disaster, he dare not take it lightly. In fact, he is very clear in his heart that Liu Chenglong's performance this time is perfect. The reason why he wants to take the lead is to erase the credit of Liu Chenglong and Qin Ruijie. So, after Liu Chenglong finished speaking, he immediately said in a low voice, "Alright, let's not discuss anything else for now. Let's talk about disaster relief. Since the flood has already occurred, there is no point in anything else. Our top priority now is to find ways to restore normal life to the people. Comrade Liu Chenglong, you are the town mayor, and these are your main responsibilities. You can talk about them and have any opinions."

This time, Shi Zhenqiang first made a big shift and changed the subject to the disaster relief, blocking Liu Chenglong's opportunity to continue roast, and then pushed the most heavy task of disaster relief to Liu Chenglong again. He calculated very clearly. If Liu Chenglong did his job well, he would naturally have contributed to the leadership of the town party secretary. If he didn't do it well, he would take advantage of this opportunity to take Liu Chenglong down and push the Executive Deputy Town Mayor Hu Guangyuan to the top. He is becoming increasingly unhappy with Mayor Liu Chenglong now. Sitting in this position makes him feel like he's choking and very uncomfortable. Especially what he couldn't tolerate the most was that Liu Chenglong, the mayor of the town, was too powerful to dare to stand up to so many town committee members and himself. This was something that had never happened in the past few years, and he absolutely couldn't tolerate it. He has decided to design some traps as soon as possible and find a way to squeeze out Liu Chenglong. And disaster relief work is a great opportunity.

Hearing what Shi Zhenqiang said, Liu Chenglong would not continue to roast, but again focused on disaster relief. In his mind, the people are the largest and the sky is vast. He pondered a little, and then said: "Well, I agree with Secretary Shi that disaster relief is indeed the top priority in our next work, and the most important thing in disaster relief is materials and money. Before today's meeting, I contacted Zhang Hongxuan, the director of the town financial office. He said that the account of the town financial office is now less than 30000 yuan, which is not enough. So we must find a way to raise funds and help people in our town rebuild their homes and resume production as soon as possible."

As soon as Liu Chenglong finished speaking, the executive vice mayor Hu Guangyuan, who had already been holding back for half a day, fired his gun: "Mayor Liu, what you said is indeed very reasonable and pleasant, but the problem is, where does the money come from? Did you just say a few nice words and the money fell from the sky? You're too empty! What the people of Guanshan Town need is real things, not empty words and clich é s!" After speaking, Hu Guangyuan looked at Liu Chenglong with provocative eyes.

Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.

Regarding Hu Guangyuan's provocation, Liu Chenglong only smiled faintly and did not turn against him, because Hu Guangyuan's words were indeed very reasonable. Liu Chenglong did not intend to compromise, but instead turned his gaze to Shi Zhenqiang and said, "Secretary Shi, you are the veteran secretary of Guanshan Town. How much money can you raise?"

Shi Zhenqiang and others asked Liu Chenglong this question. He said with a smug expression on his face, "Comrade Liu Chenglong, when it comes to the issue of disaster relief funds, I have to say to you that you used to have a petty heart to support a gentleman's belly. You kept saying that we went to the county for retirement, but in fact, we came back this time and put in a lot of effort. In the end, we received 200000 yuan in disaster relief funds from the county finance department. Although this disaster relief fund may seem small, many towns in the county have been affected. Among all the towns in the county, Guanshan Town has received the most disaster relief funds! Comrade Liu Chenglong, you are the town mayor. How much money can you raise? You can't just... Tell me not to practice!"

With just a few words, Shi Zhenqiang set a trap for Liu Chenglong, forcing him directly to become a Jedi and leaving him with no way out.

Liu Chenglong naturally understood Shi Zhenqiang's thoughts, but he smiled faintly and said, "Secretary Shi, you're right. I think it's not just that I can't just talk without practice, but all members of our town party committee can't just talk without practice. I have a proposal that all of us town committee members should take action this time and raise relief funds through various means. Moreover, I conservatively estimate that this time our Guanshan town has been so severely affected, and it will cost at least a few million yuan just to ensure the normal life of the disaster victims. Post disaster reconstruction is a significant number, at least 50 million yuan. Let's first find ways to raise living materials for the people, at least 50 million yuan." 5 million yuan, I, Liu Chenglong, promise to raise at least 600000 yuan within a week. Let's all express our opinions and see how much money you can get yourself. "

After hearing Liu Chenglong's words, Shi Zhenqiang was immediately stunned. He never expected that he would bring 200000 yuan from the county to show off in front of Liu Chenglong. This guy even promised to bring 600000 yuan, which was clearly a protest to himself. Moreover, he used his strength to make him almost vomit blood. And Liu Chenglong directly promised to get 600000 yuan, which is clearly showing off to himself! If I admit defeat on this, I'm afraid I won't have much prestige in front of everyone in the future. So, after Liu Chenglong finished speaking, he didn't hesitate to say, "Hmm, I'm the town party secretary, and I've already obtained 200000 yuan. Next, I'll find a way to obtain at least 450000 yuan within a week!"

Now everyone can see that Liu Chenglong and Shi Zhenqiang have joined forces, and at this time, no one dares to tighten their belts. Everyone is very clear that if they fall behind in raising disaster relief funds this time, their voice in the Party Committee may be greatly weakened in the future. This is a matter of face. Therefore, everyone subsequently made commitments in sequence, ranging from 550000 to 200000 yuan, according to the ranking order within the Party Committee. After the last person made a promise, the conference room once again fell silent.

Liu Chenglong's move is quite ruthless, he calculated everyone. So, many people now have a hint of solemnity in their gaze towards Liu Chenglong. No one dares to underestimate this young mayor anymore. This guy is strong enough, cunning enough, capable of calculating people invisibly, and even forcing you to grit your teeth and jump into traps.

Shi Zhenqiang saw that no one was speaking, so he was ready to announce the end of the meeting.

However, what he didn't expect was that just as he was speaking, Liu Chenglong lifted his head again and his face turned pale ī N calmly said, "Secretary Shi, Secretary Qin, and all committee members, I am now submitting a personnel adjustment proposal. Due to Comrade Han Guoqing, the director of the town police station, not following the leadership's instructions and deliberately disobeying orders during the critical period of flood control and disaster relief, it has caused a very serious negative and negative impact on the entire flood control and disaster relief work. Therefore, I had already ordered the dismissal of Han Guoqing on the spot, and Comrade Jia Xinyu, the deputy director, will act as the director of the bureau. Of course, I also know that at the level of Han Guoqing, I do not have the authority to issue this instruction. However, since it was an emergency period and time was too tight, I did not seek guidance from Secretary Shi and the county party committee. Now, I propose that everyone can discuss and see who will take on the position." The new director of the police station is suitable. Once confirmed, we will report to the county committee for approval

Stupid! Almost everyone was stunned!

No one expected that Liu Chenglong, the young mayor of the town, would directly intervene in the personnel arrangements of the town just three days after taking office, and this is definitely a forbidden area for Shi Zhenqiang! Before, almost no one dared to touch it! The most crucial thing is that the director of the police station is arranged by the county, and theoretically, Liu Chenglong has no authority to deal with others. However, Liu Chenglong happened to take action.
