Chapter 47: Heavy News
"Su Yang, here!"
Su Yang looked at the sound and saw Ning Shu Yue waiting at the entrance of the hotel.
"You arrived so early?" Su Yang said.
"I got off work a little earlier today, so I came over. Let's go, let's go up first."
After entering the private room, Ning Shu Yue ordered the dishes first, and then said to Su Yang, "I say, you are unlucky enough to be a Town Mayor. You encountered things as soon as you went, and you signed some military order. If I don't help you, tell me what you should do?"
Su Yang smiled and said, "When I signed the military order, didn't I consider that I have a beautiful and kind friend in the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department?"
As long as it is a staff member in the system, who doesn't give face to the Organization Department?
He cleverly flattered Ning Shu Yue.
Ning Shu Yue giggled, "I really didn't see that you still have a good tongue. By the way, I have another piece of news to tell you. This is a heavy news, maybe it will be helpful to you."
Su Yang leaned forward and said, "What heavy news?"
He said this, but his nasal cavity was already full of Ning Shu Yue's perfume and the body fragrance inherent in the girl, which actually made him feel a little distracted.
"The County Party Secretary and County Magistrate of your Jincheng County are about to take office."
Su Yang was surprised and said, "Is it so fast? According to reason, shouldn't these two positions be competed for a long time above before there is a result?"
This is not what he said on purpose. Although he was a secretary beside Secretary Liu for a short time, he also knew that any major personnel adjustment involved, the higher-level standing committee members would have a contest.
Especially the important positions of County Party Secretary and County Magistrate, it definitely wouldn't be settled in a few months.
Ning Shu Yue said mysteriously, "Under normal circumstances, such a short time is definitely not possible, but now it is a special period."
"The Secretary and County Magistrate of Jincheng County have both gone in. Just letting an Executive Deputy County Magistrate preside over the work for a long time is definitely not possible. Once the new Secretary and County Magistrate take office, they will definitely clean up the old subordinates of the former County Party Secretary Zhao Shanhe. No leader likes to use the predecessor's people."
"And these people originally hated you to the bone. If the two new leaders don't take office, your situation is conceivable, so I said this is a good thing for you."
Su Yang nodded, this is indeed a good thing for him.
Otherwise, a dog-like person who relies on others' power like Li Tian could trip him up and cause trouble for him at every turn.
Take the disaster relief this time, for example; the disaster victims were clearly settled by him, but Li Tian brought a large group of people to interview and take photos, which is definitely going to be in the newspapers.
When that time comes, this grandson will definitely be arrogant and boast everywhere about his contribution while also suppressing him.
"How is it? Is this news heavy enough? Is it shocking enough?"
"Shocking is shocking, but news is just news. Even if the appointment is made, the leader might not be able to arrive quickly. It will take at least ten days or half a month, and some even take a month."
"Rest assured, they will definitely arrive within a week. Jincheng County is a mess right now, and the leaders above cannot watch it continue to rot. They definitely want to let the two leaders go down and drag Jincheng County out of this mud."
Su Yang nodded seriously, "That is indeed the case. The county is already rotten enough. If Li Jianguo is allowed to have his way, it will only rot even more."
As the two were talking, Ning Shu Yue's phone rang. She picked it up, answered, told them the room number of the private box, and then said to Su Yang, "The two deputy directors from the Civil Affairs Bureau and the Finance Bureau have arrived. Let's go out and welcome them."
The two had just walked to the elevator when they met the two deputy directors who had come to the banquet. When they saw Ning Shu Yue, they walked up quickly to shake hands.
"Section Chief Ning, why did you come out to welcome us yourself? You could have just told us the room number, and we would have gone in ourselves."
"That's right, Section Chief Ning, you are really making us feel unworthy."
Although these two were deputy division-level cadres, they had no sense of superiority in front of Ning Shu Yue.
Moreover, the reason they were so eager to come was that the secretary of the newly appointed Mayor Gao had called them.
Although they didn't know what kind of relationship the Ning Shu Yue in front of them had with Mayor Gao, the fact that Mayor Gao's secretary had stepped in was enough to show that the relationship was not shallow, and they didn't dare to guess wildly.
Ning Shu Yue said with a smile, "The two leaders are too polite. This is the Town Mayor of Huatian Town, Comrade Su Yang."
Su Yang hurriedly said, "Hello, two leaders."
The two deputy directors looked Su Yang up and down, "Hello, Town Mayor Su Yang. Let's go in and talk; don't stand at the stairwell."
After entering, Ning Shu Yue gave a complete introduction. She pointed to the man with a beer belly and said, "This is Director Liu from the Finance Bureau."
Director Liu nodded slightly at Su Yang.
Then she pointed to another man wearing glasses who looked quite scholarly and said, "This is Director Mao from the Civil Affairs Bureau."
Su Yang greeted this Director Mao as well, and Director Mao just smiled slightly.
The wine had been served three times, and the dishes had been tasted.
Ning Shu Yue then gave Su Yang a look.
Su Yang understood and stood up, saying, "Two leaders, our Huatian Town encountered a rare, once-in-a-century catastrophic flood disaster yesterday, which destroyed a village of 85 households and 265 people, leaving them homeless. According to preliminary estimates, disaster relief will require about 10 million in funds and a large amount of supplies."
"Our town and the county cannot come up with much money, especially our town; in fact, we don't have a single cent."
"Although the county can give a little, it cannot solve the problem, so I have come to you two leaders with a thick skin, hoping that you can support us."
Director Liu squinted his eyes and said, "Oh, this sounds a bit serious. Have you submitted a report? How much can the county give? Have you specified it?"
"Our Municipal Finance Bureau is actually not well-off either, but since Section Chief Ning has come forward, we will give you 2 million. We can't take out any more than that."
Su Yang thanked them repeatedly. Having 2 million was already quite good; it had exceeded his expectations. In his plan, he only expected these two units to give a total of 2 million.
Director Mao calculated for a while before saying, "Tents, mineral water, instant noodles—I will send several large trucks of these to you. After all, the disaster victims still need these supplies to get by."
"As for other funds, we really can't compare to the God of Wealth, so I'll squeeze out 1 million for you."
Su Yang stood up, picked up a large wine decanter containing three taels of liquor, and said, "Thank you, two leaders. I won't say any more; everything is in the wine." After speaking, he raised it and drank it all in one gulp.
"Good, bold enough!"
"My drinking capacity is not as good as you young people, I will accompany you for a glass!"
"Right, I'll accompany you for a glass too!"
The two directors said, each picked up their wine glasses, and also drank a glass.
Su Yang had drunk a bit too fiercely just now, and his stomach felt like it was churning; the alcohol was rushing straight up. He said with slight embarrassment, "Two leaders, Section Chief Ning, I'm sorry, I'll go to the restroom first."
As soon as he stepped out of the door, he ran into an acquaintance, and the two almost collided.
