Chapter 554: Haste Makes Waste
Since Zhou Banghuai and his ilk were taken down in Wucheng County, Lin Hao was tasked with a risky mission, and his position has been rising steadily.
Unexpectedly, both the Municipal Party Committee and the City Government value him highly as a senior economist and even want to push him to the position of Deputy Secretary of the County Party Committee.
In fact, this is also part of the higher-ups' efforts to elevate him to the magistrate's position, as well as recognition of Lin Hao's work.
However, since Lin Hao took over, he has indeed revitalized the economy of Wucheng County.
Especially with the recent new city planning, which has won Secretary Cao's approval, and now with so many workers in the new energy industry chain, the entire new urban district can be covered.
According to Lin Hao's plan, the businesses will receive employee incentives while the government garners significant economic benefits, thereby pushing the county's GDP to another peak.
This is also why Secretary Cao wants to promote Lin Hao.
Only those who contribute to achievements, who are useful to the leadership, can be promoted by the leadership, rather than relying on flattery to move up.
Lin Hao was overjoyed upon receiving the news and immediately made calls to inquire about Ling Feng and others' situations.
They have now established a foothold in Wuning City, having started a security company and a private detective agency, and they have added over a dozen special forces comrades.
Given their current strength, doing something in Wuning City should be quite easy.
Lin Hao has them lying low here to better develop himself in Wuning City later and begin investigating the truth behind his father's car accident.
As for whether it is political strife? Or a casualty of rectification struggles? It will probably take Lin Hao himself to unveil the dark secrets.
"Secretary Li, there's one more thing to report to you: the land demolition compensation issue in Longwan Village. As expected, someone profited from it, embezzling farmers' interests..." Lin Hao calmed down and started reporting.
Upon hearing that leaders of all levels in Qingquan Town and Longwan Village colluded, were corrupt, and embezzled, Li Jingyi's face turned cold as frost.
"Tell Secretary Yuan that once it is confirmed someone was involved in corruption, they must be severely punished, and the compensation to the farmers must be in accordance with Wuning City's land demolition compensation standards. You need to keep an eye on this matter. If there's even a penny less, I'll hold you accountable," Li Jingyi instructed.
"Rest assured, Secretary Li, I will closely monitor this issue," Lin Hao replied.
"Also tell Secretary Yuan to report to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection truthfully, seek the higher-ups' handling opinions, and present specific punishment plans at next week's County Standing Committee meeting. For serious violations, we must impose severe penalties!" Li Jingyi instructed again.
Since the top official of the County Party Committee has stated that severe punishment is necessary, the County Commission for Discipline Inspection will definitely comply, and people like Mayor Tian and Luo Zhijun will likely have a hard time.
The saying goes, "Man can undo what heaven has imposed, but not what he himself imposes."
Mayor Tian and Luo Zhijun, feeling career prospects dim, wanted to embezzle money, not realizing that this time, they might end up serving a few years in prison.
As for Mayor Tian, who looked down on people, and Luo Zhijun, the self-destructive one, Lin Hao harbored no sympathy; he only hoped they received their deserved punishment.
As for Luo Zhijun's sister, Luo Yimei, Lin Hao would naturally help take care of her, having already taken over the Li Garden Hotel, letting her start overhauling it and preparing high-quality trade conferences.
If the Li Garden Hotel, upon reopening after renovations, lands such a significant government booking, it will be free publicity.
...
On the other side, the Su Muyun sisters persuaded their father in the hospital to step back from frontline duties, making significant progress. Su Dingfang, wanting to live a few more years, agreed to go for further recuperation.
As for the position of People's Congress Director, he still didn't want to let go, just holding the title to feel a bit better.
With Deputy County Magistrate Su Muchen and Lin Hao, the Executive Deputy County Magistrate, as support, his request was not excessive and was acknowledged by the organization.
Peng Yunyan, upon learning her husband was going for recuperation again, thought of playing some new tricks with Lin Hao, her heart was aflame, full of approval.
The Su Muyun sisters had been worried about this stepmother's disagreement, but seeing her approval, they were relieved.
As for the sisters wanting Lin Hao to take care of this stepmother, that matter was a bit tricky, not knowing where to start.
Sister Jingjing was taken twice by Lin Hao today, experiencing six climaxes, not getting out of bed until noon to eat.
Having finished his tasks, Lin Hao received the personnel list from Li Jingyi for next week's investigation, feeling instantly overwhelmed.
Because too many municipal bureau leaders would come next week for investigation, led personally by Executive Vice Mayor Han Jianlin, focusing mainly on Wucheng County's economic development and environmental management.
Environmental management naturally includes the silt cleaning of the Wuding River. Fortunately, he personally visited the site yesterday and took emergency measures.
After all, with the flood season approaching, safety is more critical than economic development, probably the focus of this investigation.
Thinking of this, Lin Hao immediately called Director Gu Guanyu of the Water Resources Bureau.
"Hello... Director Gu? This is Lin Hao!"
"County Magistrate Lin, this is Gu Guanyu. What's the matter?" Director Gu was surprised.
"It's like this, next Monday, the Executive Vice Mayor will personally lead a team to our Wucheng County for inspection, focusing on economic development and environmental management... We are nearing flood season, so the Wuding River will definitely be a key point for inspection. You need to use these two days to work overtime to clean the silt, ready for the Municipal Party Committee's inspection..." Lin Hao began instructing.
Director Gu, who was on vacation at home, was startled at the news of the Municipal Bureau leaders coming to check the silt cleaning of the Wuding River.
"County Magistrate Lin, rest assured, I will closely monitor the silt cleaning, aiming to complete it by Monday." Director Gu replied loudly.
"Director Gu, I'm not asking you to rush the construction because haste would make waste, and errors could occur in a rush. Your task is to methodically accelerate progress, especially in severely blocked areas, focusing on them first..." Lin Hao specifically guided the work.
Director Gu immediately understood his meaning, replying loudly, "County Magistrate Lin, rest assured, I know what to do."
"Director Gu, don't feel pressured, I will accompany the leadership during the inspection. If there's pressure from above, I'll share that burden with you," Lin Hao comforted with a smile.
"Thank you, County Magistrate Lin, but we should indeed speed up the progress. I'll head to the river to monitor the construction progress now." Director Gu felt immense pressure.
After all, with the Executive Vice Mayor leading personally, any slip in work might cost him his position as Director.
