At 2:30 in the afternoon, many officials from various departnts arrived at the county governnt eting room.
Of course, these officials, big and small, were all relatives of the holdouts; otherwise, Lin Hao wouldn't have invited them to the eting.
As the County Magistrate, Lin Hao sat in the main seat in the middle, with a faint smile on his face, looking like a "smiling tiger."
After everyone sat down, Lin Hao didn't hold back and directly began his speech.
"Comrades, we are all on the sa side, so today we will speak openly behind closed doors..."
Lin Hao got straight to the point: "After our Wucheng County high-quality trade and economic forum, economic developnt will accelerate rapidly. However, the old city area of our county is dilapidated and can no longer match our county's economic developnt..."
"Since the new energy battery industry chain, major enterprises have been expanding and recruiting more employees. These employees urgently need housing, dical care, and schools. Wucheng County must provide these essential living facilities, and housing is undoubtedly the most important..."
"The county committee and county governnt initially chose Zhenjiang Village as the site for new urban construction because it is close to the Wuding River, has a good environnt, and is relatively near the old city..."
"However, there is now a group of holdouts who, relying on support from leaders in the county, are arbitrarily raising prices, severely hindering our county's developnt plans..."
"I believe everyone here is reasonable, and I hope you can go back and work on the mindset of these holdouts..."
"Next, the governnt office will issue your task goals, and I hope you can complete them as soon as possible..."
After Lin Hao finished speaking, he had Cheng Jiayao distribute everyone's tasks.
Being relatives of the holdouts, they had long heard that the county would pressure them.
Therefore, most people remained very calm after receiving their task objectives.
However, so were very dissatisfied, feeling that the governnt was just creating problems for them.
Lin Hao finally added, "Take a look at your task objectives, and if you have any difficulties, you can co down and talk to personally, and I'll help you solve them..."
"Starting now, this task is your most important responsibility. Other matters can be temporarily set aside; focus all your energy on this task."
"To help you complete the task quickly, starting today, you don't need to go to work; concentrate fully on this task."
Upon hearing that they wouldn't need to go to work, there was an imdiate commotion, clearly showing their displeasure.
At this mont, a young man stood up and loudly asked, "County Magistrate Lin, I'm Peng Liyang from the Forestry Bureau. I want to ask, does this an we can't return to work until we finish the task?"
The question was sharp, posed in front of so many people, obviously intending to put Lin Hao on the spot.
Lin Hao's smile didn't fade, and he replied loudly, "How could that be? It's just that this task is very important, so you're given paid leave to complete it."
"County Magistrate Lin's answer is ambiguous. How do we know when we can return to work? Give us a specific ti so we have a sense of it, everyone, am I right?"
Peng Liyang pressed on for a specific ti from Lin Hao.
Lin Hao frowned, a glint of nace in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Let's set a two-week limit. How does that sound to everyone?"
"County Magistrate Lin, two weeks of paid leave feels too much; I think one week should be enough. If we can't complete the task, we'll return to work. What do you think?" Peng Liyang countered.
"Peng Liyang, are you questioning my decision?" Lin Hao's face suddenly darkened.
"I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare!" Peng Liyang quickly adjusted his tone with a smile.
However, he had no idea how deep the waters ran within the system; it wouldn't be long before he was completely subrged.
"Since there are no objections, today's eting is concluded."
Lin Hao stood up and added finally, "Again, if you have difficulties, feel free to co to privately for a discussion..."
After he left, many people began to complain, while so started calling their relatives to urge them to sign the docunts quickly.
After all, if these holdouts didn't sign, they couldn't return to work, and if soone replaced them, how could they return?
Those within the system understood well that once a position is vacated, soone else will take it.
After Lin Hao returned to his office, soone quickly ca to see him.
The first person was a young man from the Developnt and Reform Bureau, explaining that he and his holdout relatives had long severed ties, making it difficult to influence them even if he tried.
In this case, Lin Hao didn't insist, simply asking him to do his best with the ideological work, assuring him the governnt wouldn't worry even if there were no results.
After he left, Lin Hao imdiately called Wei Lianggui from the National Developnt and Reform Commission, asking him to investigate this young man's family situation.
If it were true, there wouldn't be much more to say. If not, he wouldn't hesitate to be ruthless.
Of course, Peng Liyang, who spoke at the eting today, also needed to be investigated regarding his background.
That's how it is in the system; the network of relationships is deeply entwined, and many young people are placed by so senior figures.
Therefore, decisions should not be made rashly or impulsively.
However, if soone causes trouble in public, they must be taught a lesson.
Weighing the situation, Lin Hao decided to call Director ng Hongwei of the Forestry Bureau.
"Hello, is this Director ng? I'm Lin Hao!"
"Ah... County Magistrate Lin, what can I do for you?" ng Hongwei's heart sank.
He had just received news that one of his staff had contradicted County Magistrate Lin during the eting.
He didn't expect Lin Hao to call so quickly.
"Director ng, what's the background of that Peng Liyang in your bureau?" Lin Hao asked directly.
"County Magistrate Lin, this Peng Liyang is the nephew of Deputy Director Zhao from the city bureau, sent here as part of the city's arrangents," ng Hongwei replied.
"So, he relies on connections in the city bureau..." Lin Hao mused.
"This Deputy Director Zhao, nad Zhao Lei, is one of our city forestry bureau's deputy directors, in charge of forestry work for our county..." ng Hongwei quickly gave a detailed report.
From Director ng's words, Lin Hao realized he couldn't afford to offend this Deputy Director Zhao and would have to handle it himself.
However, if he did handle it personally, the conflict might escalate, and Deputy Director Zhao might feel he's being bureaucratically bullied.
Given this, he could only entrust Li Jingyi with handling the matter.
After all, she was the top leader in the county, and having her deal with it was undoubtedly the best approach.
