Chapter 23: Let Him Know the Consequences of Offending Me, Li Tian

He coughed and said, "It seems Town Mayor Su is an extremely pragmatic person. Very well, today's welcome ceremony ends here."

"What do you think, Minister Tan?"

"Good, Party Secretary Qin decides," Deputy Minister of the Organization Department Tan Donglai said indifferently.

Causing trouble at the welcome ceremony was clearly not giving him face. But due to Li Tian's status, he really couldn't say anything. Otherwise, if he were beaten by Li Jianguo later, his days wouldn't be easy either.

He recorded this account in his small notebook first.

"Good, everyone go to the conference room to listen to Town Mayor Su's inaugural speech."

Party Secretary Qin said to everyone. Then he walked in with Tan Donglai and Su Yang.

The others originally wanted to wait for Li Tian to go first, and then go in.

Although this was just a township, everyone still had to follow the unspoken rules of the system.

But Li Tian had a gloomy face, as if his feet had taken root, and he didn't move for a long time.

He had prepared a show of power for Su Yang, wanting to dampen Su Yang's spirit, wanting to let Su Yang know that after coming to Huatian Town, he would have to bow his head and be a person in the future.

But he didn't want to be directly counter-killed by Su Yang.

The show of power turned into a laughingstock.

"Town Mayor Li, let's go in first. There are still long days ahead. Don't be impatient for this moment," said Deputy Party Secretary and Discipline Committee Member Bai Jiaxuan.

Li Tian only then recovered from his loss of composure. He said, "Hmm, there are still long days ahead. Just watch how I clean him up. I will let him know tomorrow what the consequences of offending me, Li Tian, are."

Only then did he walk inside, and the others followed behind sensibly. At the same time, they were looking forward to Li Tian's counterattack tomorrow, not fearing that things would be too big.

Inside the conference room, all the cadres of the township, including the people from the police station, also came to attend the meeting.

The new Town Mayor had arrived, and they had to come to get familiar.

Party Secretary Qin went on stage to say a few polite words first, and invited Deputy Minister of the Organization Department Tan Donglai to speak.

Tan Donglai looked at the dozens of people in the conference room and didn't say much, ending his speech in less than two minutes.

Next was the protagonist of today, the new Town Mayor Su Yang's speech.

"Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap..."

With a sparse round of applause, Su Yang walked to the speaking podium.

"Minister Tan, Party Secretary Qin, comrades present."

"I am new here and not familiar with all aspects. I hope everyone will support me a lot, let us work together to develop Huatian Town, and let the common people's pockets bulge."

"Take off the hat of poverty and return to the prosperity of previous years."

"For this, I hope everyone can exert their strength together and work together to pull the carriage of Huatian Town back to the right track."

"Thank you all..."

Just when everyone was waiting for Su Yang to give a long-winded speech, he ended his speech in just a few sentences.

For a twenty-five-year-old young cadre, this was an absolute highlight moment. Why not show off for a few more minutes?

They still remembered that when Li Tian came to be the Deputy Town Mayor, he spoke for two hours, wishing he could start from his birth and talk until the moment before he took office.

So much so that everyone's lunch was delayed.

At that time, countless people were cursing in their hearts. They just wanted to eat on time; your inaugural speech was nothing more than showing off yourself. Showing off yourself, what does it have to do with us?

Comparing the two, everyone had a bit more good impression of the equally young Town Mayor Su.

After the meeting, everyone exited in an orderly manner.

Party Secretary Qin invited Deputy Minister of the Organization Department Tan Donglai to eat at the Shangri-La Hotel. As the name suggests, it was a welcome banquet.

But Su Yang didn't follow immediately. He stood at the door waiting for Police Station Chief Li Bo.

"This is Police Station Chief Li, right? If you are not busy, let's chat for a few sentences."

Li Bo's heart shook, and he immediately thought of something.

He hurriedly said, "Not busy, not busy, Town Mayor Su, please speak."

Su Yang said while walking out, "Chief Li, do you know Wang Erni?"

"She was seriously injured when selling apples before. You reported the case, how did you handle it specifically?"

Li Bo's heart skipped a beat, thinking: Isn't this an open secret?

Town Mayor Li is preparing to use this matter to make things difficult for you, but you came to the door first.

He said, "Town Mayor Su, Wang Erni did report the case, but the person who beat her is not from our Huatian Town, so we have no way to handle it."

"But we reported it to the County Public Security Bureau, and they will follow up and handle it."

"As long as there is progress in this matter, I will report to you at the first moment."

Pushing the responsibility away, and saying it in a way that you couldn't find any fault.

Su Yang nodded, "Then I will trouble Chief Li."

"By the way, I heard that a business company boss named Zhao Da Yong is your brother-in-law?"

"For this matter, I will give you one week to give me a result. Otherwise, I don't mind letting the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Public Security Bureau conduct a joint investigation."

"At that time, anyone involved, especially those acting as umbrellas, will be severely punished and never forgiven."

Li Bo's heart "skipped a beat" again. Since this young Town Mayor said so, he would definitely not be shooting without a target.

Could it be that this Town Mayor who lost his backing and was sent down has some reliance?

Yes, everyone in the town knows that Zhao Da Yong did this, so what?

Do you have evidence?

Although he thought so, he still wanted to explain a few sentences, but when he looked up, Su Yang had already walked far away. He shook his head and walked quickly to Li Tian's side to whisper a few words.

The corner of Li Tian's mouth curled into a cold smile, "What kind of thing is he? I haven't cleaned him up yet, and he actually jumped up first."

"Can the County Discipline Inspection Commission and the County Public Security Bureau listen to him? Who does he think he is?"

"Since that's the case, I will let him know this afternoon how many eyes Ma Wangye has."

"Let him know whose world this Huatian Town is."

Although Huatian Town is now an impoverished town, it was once glorious.

The whole street was full of imposing two-story buildings, motorcycles were everywhere on the street, and even hair salons were still struggling to survive.

These were all remnants of the atmosphere of prosperity.

It is currently 2002, and most areas of Ganzhou Province in the Northwest are still struggling on the road to poverty alleviation. Even some relatively developed small towns don't necessarily have two-story buildings.

Even the township government and town government don't necessarily have office buildings.

Most of them are still bungalows.

The welcome banquet was arranged by Party Secretary Qin at the Shangri-La Hotel not far from the town government.

Saying it's a big hotel, it's actually just that the name is a bit foreign; in essence, it's still a storefront on a two-story building, just the sign is a bit bigger.

"Minister Tan, this is our condition; we can't compare to the hotels in the city."

"However, there are a few kinds of game, it's already cooked..."

Tan Donglai didn't stand on ceremony either. Sending cadres down and eating a welcome banquet is routine.

If you don't eat, it will make people think you have opinions about the local leadership team.

As soon as the cold dishes were on the table, Party Secretary Qin began to toast according to the rules of the Ganzhou drinking scene, and then it was Li Tian and other team members.

Minister Tan didn't even last a round before falling down. Party Secretary Qin took the lead and raised his glass to Su Yang: "Town Mayor Su, from now on we are one family. You are from above, I believe you have resources, connections, and relationships."

"And you are the secretary to the former Municipal Party Committee Secretary, so our Huatian Town's economic development depends on you."

This opening was stabbing a knife into Su Yang. ===== CHAPTER 24 =====
