"County Magistrate Qin, I... I am a leading cadre, the mayor of the town. I... If I apologize now, how can I... manage things in the future..."
Duan Ze looked at Qin Mu with a very embarrassed expression, and whispered: "You can ask me to do anything, I... I can't apologize, I... I think I am doing it for work, you... You can't let me... do this..."
For work?
Can you bully ordinary people?
Can you use violence against them?
"I won't force you to apologize, but if you don't have this attitude, I won't let you go, let alone let you continue to sit in the position of the mayor of Wanghe Town!"
Qin Mu said lightly: "I will recommend to remove you from your position at the Standing Committee. If the Standing Committee votes against it, I will go to the city and ask the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee. If I don't remove you completely, I won't be the county magistrate anymore!"
"Of course, if you think that Secretary Yu is willing to break up with me and offend the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee for you, you can also be tough to the end."
This...
Duan Ze was silent!
He was very clear about his position in Secretary Yu's mind. If he was the director of the county government office before, Secretary Yu might have valued him a little more, because the director of the county government office could monitor County Magistrate Qin's every move, which would be helpful for Xuewen.
But now, he is just a small town mayor. To the secretary, he is just a pawn, and the kind of pawn that can be abandoned at any time!
For him, offend the leaders of the municipal party committee?
That's impossible!
Once County Magistrate Qin makes a big fuss at the Standing Committee meeting, he will probably be the first to be abandoned!
By then, he won't even be able to keep his position as town mayor.
Thinking of this, Duan Ze's heart was filled with sorrow!
If he had known this earlier, he might as well have followed County Magistrate Qin from the beginning, and why would he be an undercover agent?
In order to work for Secretary Yu, he is so frustrated as a town mayor!
It's so uncomfortable!
"I...I apologize...Is it not enough to apologize? Don't bother the municipal party committee leaders."
Duan Ze sighed and had to give in.
He glanced at Qin Mu, then walked silently to the villagers of Dawang Village, bowed, and then said: "I...I am Duan Ze, the mayor of Wanghe Town. I...I did something wrong just now. I shouldn't let them push you and use force against you. It's my fault. I apologize, I admit my mistakes, I...I will never do this again in the future..."
After speaking, he bowed again.
Qin Mu witnessed all of this. Although he knew that Duan Ze's apology was not so sincere, he was able to do this step, which was almost enough. If he pressed further, it would have a counterproductive effect.
Quit while you are ahead!
After apologizing, Qin Mu stepped forward, looked at the people of Dawang Village, and said, "Fellow villagers, I am the acting county magistrate of Huaining County People's Government. My name is Qin Mu. I already know the cause and effect of the situation of this land. Next, I will help you clarify the ownership of this land!"
"Xinyue, come!"
Qin Mu's idea now is very simple. He wants to appease all the villagers, at least there will be no more violent conflicts. But he is a government official and a new face. What he says may not work. At this time, he needs acquaintances to help him speak.
The only person he knows is Pei Xinyue. The other party is a young man and a college student. He should be able to say a few words in front of the villagers.
"Ah... Come... Come!"
Pei Xinyue has been looking at Qin Mu. Suddenly, she was called and walked over quickly after she reacted.
"Take the villagers back first. They are so old. Tell them not to do this kind of thing. I will give you a satisfactory answer to the land issue. Is that okay?" Qin Mu said seriously. This... Will what I said work? If someone else said this to her, she would definitely refuse, but the person in front of her was Qin Mu, and she would definitely listen to him. "Okay!" Pei Xinyue agreed immediately, then looked at the villagers and spoke to them in the local accent. But after that, the villagers didn't seem to be very willing, and they said a lot in a gibberish, but it was just the local accent, and Qin Mu didn't understand it very well. He could only look at Pei Xinyue, wanting her to help him translate, but when he looked at her, he suddenly found that Pei Xinyue's face was slightly red. What's going on? Why did she blush after saying a few words? Before Qin Mu could ask, Pei Xinyue put her hands on her hips and yelled at the villagers again. Her face became even more flushed and her expression became even more excited. After she finished speaking, the villagers slowly dispersed and walked towards the village.
Leaving now?
Qin Mu looked at this scene and became even more curious. What did Pei Xinyue say to make these people so obedient?
"County Magistrate Qin, I arranged them all to go back as you ordered."
Pei Xinyue said, "This piece of land belongs to our village. If there is no news in the next few days, they will definitely come again."
"Don't worry, I will solve this problem."
Qin Mu nodded and agreed.
"Okay!"
Pei Xinyue believed Qin Mu and said nothing else. She walked back immediately.
After sending the villagers away, Qin Mu looked at Duan Ze and said, "I will discuss the ownership of this land with Secretary Yu. Before that, no one or any company is allowed to do other development on this land!"
After that, he prepared to take Han Ying and others back to the county to talk to Yu Xuewen.
"County Magistrate Qin, you can't do this!"
At this time, a figure suddenly came out from the side, blocked Qin Mu's way, and said, "Our company has bought this land, why don't you let us do it? The money has been paid, the government can't default on it!"
Oh?
Your company?
Qin Mu was a little unfamiliar with the man in front of him, and looked at Duan Ze, waiting for him to introduce himself.
"County Magistrate Qin, this is Mr. Wang, the general manager of Wenyu Tourism Company."
Duan Ze said, "They paid for this land and are responsible for the development!"
Wenyu Tourism Company!
The real owner is here!
Qin Mu looked at the other party and said directly: "The government will not default on its debt, but the government's decision can be adjusted. You have paid the money and have receipts. If the development cannot be carried out, the refund will be made naturally. You don't have to worry about this!"
"Just wait for the final news!"
After that, Qin Mu was going to go back and talk to Yu Xuewen. It was meaningless to say all this now.
"County Magistrate Qin, you can't say that. We have spent money to buy it. Is it enough to just refund? The government has no credit at all!"
This Mr. Wang was obviously not satisfied with Qin Mu's answer and immediately said another sentence.
The government has no credit?
Qin Mu stopped again when he heard this, looked at the other party, and said: "Mr. Wang, if you think the government has no credit, you can complain. I will give you a channel. You can find the relevant departments of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to complain that the Huaining County Party Committee and County Government are not trustworthy!"
"If it doesn't work, leave Huaining County and invest in other places. I believe that you can do business anywhere with money. Why stay in a place that is not trustworthy?"
This...
Wang Tao, general manager of Wenyu Tourism Company, shut up instantly!
"Boss Wang, I'm waiting for your complaint!"
Qin Mu looked at Wang Tao, said something, and turned around and got into the car.
"Damn!"
"So pretentious!"
Wang Tao stared at the back of the other party's car and muttered. It's rare to see such an arrogant leader to investors these days.
Whoever has money is the boss!
Especially in a poor place like Huaining County, having money can make you a guest of honor at all levels of government, but this County Magistrate Qin seems to be a little unconventional?
