Chapter 1153: I'm Prepared This Time!
Seeing Zheng Shaokang complete the task, Tang Ye picked up the megaphone and said in a serious tone,
"Everyone, please calm down. We have investigated the whole matter very clearly.
Du Dalong and Du Xiaohu, the two brothers, were suspected of illegal activities and frequently provoked trouble while operating the minibuses.
The others were all coerced; do not let yourselves be used by them!"
The others did not expect the Government to be so tough.
For a moment, they did not know how to handle it!
Tang Ye said, "I know what you are thinking. You came here to protect your own interests. But have you ever thought about how much trouble your actions today have caused the common people and how much loss they have brought to society?"
A minibus owner surnamed Yang stood out, "County Magistrate Tang, you are launching the Huimin Bus and planning to smash our rice bowls; are you not wrong in doing so?"
Tang Ye frowned and said, "You have raised a very sharp question. But I can say with a clear conscience that I am not wrong.
Because I am considering the problem from the standpoint of the many common people.
Minibuses have indeed brought benefits to the travel of the common people, but chaotic phenomena occur frequently, and the safety hazards are extremely great.
The times are progressing, and public buses are imperative.
You must prepare for the transition in advance."
Boss Yang said unhappily, "If you insist on having your own way, then we can only strike to the end."
The biggest bargaining chip of this group of minibus drivers was their monopoly on transportation from the county seat to the townships.
As long as they went on strike, the travel of the common people would become a problem.
But now, Tang Ye not only did not urge them to get on the job quickly, but even let them rest.
What does this mean?
Is he completely disregarding the difficulties of the common people?
It is said outside that the new County Magistrate governs for the people!
Now it seems, is it just a hollow facade?
"Boss Yang, given that your minibuses often stop operations at every turn and are unstable in various ways.
In the process of operation, you never cared about the feelings of the common people; effective immediately, all minibuses are to cease operations.
As for when you can operate again, wait for our notification!"
Tang Ye's next words made Boss Yang and the others even more bewildered.
Is County Magistrate Tang crazy?
With the minibuses stopped, what will happen to the traffic within the county?
Is he going to completely tear off the mask?
Boss Yang panicked a little, "County, County Magistrate Tang, if we stop operations, then what will the common people do for travel?"
Tang Ye looked over indifferently, "Boss Yang, I know your selfish motives.
You want to use transportation to hold the common people hostage, using this as a bargaining chip with the Government.
Rest assured, I have always kept the affairs of the common people in my heart. You can engage in passive sabotage, but the Government will absolutely not let society come to a standstill.
If you want to block the way here, then continue blocking it, but do not do extreme things like Du Dalong.
If anyone makes trouble, we will arrest them!"
After saying these words.
Tang Ye turned around and walked directly toward the Government Compound.
Leaving behind the bewildered minibus owners.
"Boss Yang, Du Dalong has been arrested, what do we do now?"
"How would I know what to do?"
"How about we withdraw? We haven't done business for half a day, the loss is not small."
"Still thinking about doing business? Didn't you hear County Magistrate Tang? The Government has ordered us to stop operations."
"How dare he stop our operations? Is he not afraid of complaints from the common people?"
"Is there a possibility that he has already made arrangements and is prepared?"
That's right!
Zhang Ping is his backup!
Returning to the office,
Tang Ye dialed a phone number, "Master Zhang, where have you arrived?"
Zhang Ping said excitedly, "County Magistrate Tang, we are about to arrive at Ziyichuan!"
"Good, thank you for your hard work. Please hurry to the county bus station and immediately put them into operation."
"Understood, we will definitely complete the task you arranged."
Hanging up Zhang Ping's call, Tang Ye called for Zheng Shaokang.
"There is a matter that needs you to handle immediately. Within half an hour, a batch of public buses will enter Yechuan County to replace the original minibuses and take over the entire transportation network."
A look of surprise appeared in Zheng Shaokang's eyes, "Where did this batch of buses come from?"
There was no need for Tang Ye to hide it at this time.
"After Mayor Jiang took office, he purchased a batch of new energy public buses from the Hanxing Group in Hanzhou. Originally, this batch of buses was intended to be put into use in the city, but given the current situation in Yechuan County, I have called this batch of new energy public buses over."
A look of sudden realization appeared in Zheng Shaokang's eyes; no wonder County Magistrate Tang was so confident and not worried at all about these minibus owners making trouble or going on strike.
It turns out he had arrangements early on.
"Understood, I will arrange for people right away; whoever makes trouble will be arrested directly."
Tang Ye nodded slightly, "Many of these minibus bosses have underworld affiliations; take this opportunity to properly rectify the situation."
Zheng Shaokang nodded and said, "County Magistrate Tang, rest assured, the two brothers Du Dalong and Du Xiaohu are typical cases, and we will take this seriously."
After Zheng Shaokang left, Tang Ye took the initiative to go to Han Zhengyi's office.
"County Magistrate Tang, I was just about to call you. Why haven't the people outside dispersed yet?"
Tang Ye said, "I didn't tell them to disperse. If they are willing to stay, let them stay."
Shi Guangrong glanced at Han Zhengyi; based on his understanding of Han Zhengyi, the County Party Secretary was holding back a ball of fire in his heart right now!
"County Magistrate Tang, the entire county's transportation is now at a standstill, and the city has already received the news. Gong has demanded that we handle the matter as quickly as possible."
Tang Ye said, "The matter has already been handled."
Shi Guangrong looked at Tang Ye in surprise, "If the minibuses don't resume work, how can the matter be settled?"
Tang Ye explained patiently, "I communicated with Mayor Jiang yesterday regarding the transportation situation in Yechuan. Mayor Jiang expressed strong dissatisfaction with the behavior of Yechuan minibus owners monopolizing the market, driving up prices, and bullying the market, so he provided Yechuan County with a batch of new energy buses as aid. This batch of vehicles was purchased by the Municipal Government from Hanxing Group and will arrive within Yechuan territory immediately."
Upon hearing this, Han Zhengyi's eyes were filled with shock.
No wonder Tang Ye was so confident and had everything under control!
Shi Guangrong secretly marveled at how much influence Tang Ye truly had.
The new vehicles purchased by the Municipal Government were being brought directly to Yechuan County.
As expected, Tang Ye was a direct subordinate of Mayor Jiang, which was why he received such favorable treatment.
"We have the buses, but what about the quality of the drivers? Are they familiar with Yechuan's transportation routes?"
Tang Ye explained patiently, "These drivers are all taxi drivers; their licenses meet the requirements, and they have over ten years of driving experience. You can be completely assured of their capabilities."
Upon hearing this, a complex look appeared in Han Zhengyi's eyes.
"You handled it very promptly, but shouldn't you have tipped us off in advance!"
Tang Ye hurriedly explained with a smile,
"I've made you and Secretary Shi worry.
I mainly felt that this wasn't a big deal...
Before, didn't they surround the City Transportation Bureau...
This time, I was prepared..."
Han Zhengyi:...
Shi Guangrong:!!!
