Chapter 1163: Exploiting Loopholes in Policy!

Sorting out the chaos in the transportation system through the government capacity rectification campaign is one of the main tasks.

Strategic Eastward Expansion is another main task that Tang Ye is focusing on promoting.

Because no land requisition and demolition company was hired, and the government is doing it personally, the requisition and demolition work is quite cumbersome.

But the result is good.

The common people are very cooperative with the requisition and demolition work.

After all, since no requisition and demolition company was hired, the compensation is significantly higher than in surrounding areas.

Of course, obstacles were still encountered...

The sedan stopped at the entrance of a garden.

Tang Ye's expression was somewhat solemn.

The Deputy County Magistrate in charge of the requisition and demolition work is named Chen Shan.

Chen Shan always feels a bit awkward whenever she is with Tang Ye.

Because Tang Ye is too young, and she is fifteen years his senior.

"County Magistrate Tang, we have tried to communicate with the owner of the garden, but their asking price is too high."

Tang Ye frowned and asked, "How much?"

"Twenty-five million!" Chen Shan said softly.

Tang Ye was a bit surprised, though he did not show it, and questioned, "Wasn't the estimated value only eight million before? Why do they suddenly want so much?"

Chen Shan hurriedly explained, "Because they played a timing trick and transplanted dozens of high-value landscape trees. The other party denies this matter and refuses our previous price, insisting on twenty-five million before they will agree to the requisition."

Tang Ye frowned and said, "Who is the owner of this garden?"

Chen Shan explained, "The owner of the garden is Chai Zhenkun, the boss of Zhenao Group. Besides this garden, there are three other gardens within the scope of this requisition. These gardens were bought by him two months ago."

Although Chen Shan did not directly state the trickery involved.

But Tang Ye could hear where the problem lay.

Chai Zhenkun utilized the information gap regarding the Strategic Eastward Expansion that he possessed.

After the government approval was issued, he purchased these four manors in advance and transplanted many artificially inflated landscape trees at the first opportunity.

To put it bluntly, this is deliberately exploiting loopholes in policy!

Chai Zhenkun had just donated five million yuan to the Yechuan County treasury.

Yet he is using the Eastward Expansion policy to scheme for even more profit.

It is enough to see the cunning and shrewdness of Chai Zhenkun...

Given Tang Ye's character, it is impossible for him to let Chai Zhenkun get his wish!

One must know, the requisition budget for a village of dozens of households is only a little over ten million.

This is competing with the people for profit!

Tang Ye remained calm, "These few gardens must be negotiated down; it is impossible to go by their price. You talk to them first; if you can't reach an agreement, I will talk to them personally."

Hearing Tang Ye say this, Chen Shan suddenly felt confident, "Alright, County Magistrate Tang, I will definitely work hard."

Tang Ye had just returned from a research trip in Dong Qu when he received a call from the County Party Secretary.

"County Magistrate Tang, are you free? Come to my office; there is already a lead regarding Zhang Lei's issue."

"Alright, I'll be right over."

Tang Ye walked into the office and found the Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary there as well, and took the initiative to greet him.

Han Zhengyi's expression was still very relaxed, "Secretary Zhao, tell County Magistrate Tang about the investigation results!"

"Zhang Lei has confessed to his criminal facts without reservation. He secretly purchased a residential building specifically to hide his illicit gains. Among them, a box of cash had rotted severely due to improper storage, and we have already handed it over to the bank for counting."

Zhao Shuli paused and emphasized, "Preliminary estimates suggest the amount involved exceeds twenty million!"

Tang Ye guessed that Zhang Lei must have abused his power for personal gain and amassed wealth recklessly, but he did not expect him to have embezzled so much.

One must know, Zhang Lei was merely a Section-level Cadre!

Of course, Tang Ye is well-informed.

Among the corrupt officials who have fallen into his hands, there are plenty who have embezzled even more!

Han Zhengyi was silent for a few seconds, "Regarding Zhang Lei's issue, we must take it seriously. Everyone related to him, one by one, must be held accountable."

Zhao Shuli replied in a deep voice, "The Discipline Inspection Group has already begun action."

Over the next few days, the Discipline Inspection Group moved directly into the County Transportation Bureau to conduct interviews with all personnel in the bureau.

The Transportation Bureau was in a state of chaos for a time.

Those who were close to Zhang Lei were as miserable as if they were mourning their parents, and everyone felt endangered.

Those who had kept their distance from Zhang Lei were applauding!

The all-powerful Lei Laohu had finally been toppled!

After the Discipline Inspection Group had figured out the background of all personnel.

The County Party Committee Organization Department arranged for a working group to enter at this time to interview personnel worth cultivating.

Next, it was time to issue personnel transfer orders.

The transportation system underwent a major reshuffle from top to bottom.

The Municipal Organization Department transferred a female comrade from the city to serve as the new director of the Transportation Bureau.

The new director is named Lv Wenjia.

Dong Zhangan, the Organization Department Minister, announced the appointment document, "After research by the County Party Committee Organization Department, Comrade Lv Wenjia is appointed to the position of Director of the County Transportation Bureau. First, please have County Magistrate Tang speak."

Tang Ye looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "During this period, many things have happened in the transportation system. Like everyone else, I feel very angry and depressed.

Because major problems appeared in the transportation system, but fortunately, we discovered the problems in time."

"I want to welcome Comrade Lv Wenjia for being willing to take on a heavy responsibility in Yechuan County during this special period.

I have an understanding of her abilities and believe she has the capability to shoulder the responsibility and give the Yechuan County transportation system a brand-new look."

Dong Zhangan subsequently said, "Next, I invite Comrade Lv Wenjia to deliver her inaugural address."

Lv Wenjia is not yet thirty years old, is already a Section-level Cadre, and is a young cadre being key-cultivated by the Xiyang Municipal Organization Department.

"Thank you, Minister Dong, for your concern, and thank you, County Magistrate Tang, for your encouragement.

For me, coming to the Yechuan County Transportation Bureau is like traveling light.

Because before I arrived, many obstacles had already been cleared away.

I hope that all the comrades present can feel the determination of the Government leadership, readjust your states, and welcome brand-new work..."

Although Lv Wenjia is a woman and also very young, her aura is still quite substantial.

Everyone knows that Lv Wenjia's background is extraordinary, which is why she has the confidence when she speaks.

Lv Wenjia's gaze falls on Tang Ye from time to time.

She had long since heard of Tang Ye's name like thunder.

Originally, she felt the propaganda in the news had exaggerated components, but after initial contact, it basically matches: upright, sunny, and bold.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, in her capacity as the new bureau chief, Lv Wenjia organized a coordination meeting for the minibus owners.

Before the meeting started, it was noisy and chaotic.

Tang Ye arrived a bit late.

However, after he appeared, the conference room immediately quieted down.

It was completely different from the foul and chaotic meeting environment during the previously held Huimin Bus opinion solicitation meeting.

These minibus owners had already learned of Tang Ye's formidable nature!

Tang Ye sat down, and Ma Ran placed a thermos cup on his right-hand side.

Tang Ye suddenly stood up and opened the windows of the conference room!

"Fellow minibus owners, we are old friends!

I have gathered everyone here today!

There are a few important matters to announce to you..."
