Chapter 1495 2 sets of rules

"You're still angry when you're angry, but you can't stop eating. Eat your fill first. Only then will you have the strength to fight against corruption." Qin Feng smiled and served Xie Simin some food again.

"Why are you laughing? You are the county magistrate, do you care about these things? Let me tell you, I found a lot of violations of laws and disciplines down there, and I recorded them one by one. You must arrest all these people. Get up." Xie Simin stared at Qin Feng.

Qin Feng didn't expect that he was just trying to persuade someone, but he didn't expect that he would get angry.

"Okay, let's eat first, and we'll talk about this after we finish the meal." Qin Feng said perfunctorily.

"No, give me an answer now. Do you care about these things?" Xie Simin forced Qin Feng.

Qin Feng was suddenly in a dilemma. He didn't know how to explain these truths clearly to Xie Simin. He was full of scholarly energy just after leaving school.

"I don't care, and I can't control it." Qin Feng shook his head after thinking for a while.

"What? You are the county magistrate, why can't you control it? Qin Feng, have you become like them?" Xie Simin suddenly became angry.

"Before I answer you why I can't control you, let me ask you a few questions first." Qin Feng smiled and said while smoking a cigarette.

"First question, how popular are you in Donghe Town? How is your relationship with your colleagues?" Qin Feng asked.

"You asked this deliberately to ridicule me, didn't you? Didn't I tell you just now? I had quarreled with several other leaders in Donghe Town, and they all regarded me as an enemy. If Secretary Chu hadn't protected me, I guess I won’t be able to stay in Donghe Town any longer.”

"I don't care, and I disdain to associate with these corrupt elements." Xie Simin said as stubbornly as ever.

"Second question, what are you in charge of in Donghe Town? Do you have any real power?" Qin Feng asked again.

"No, I am an assistant to the mayor. I am just a sinecure. I am looking good. The mayor doesn't want to see me, so how can he give me power? Secretary Chu may see me as pitiful and let me be in charge of the cultural and health work of Donghe Town. Donghe Town How can there be any culture and hygiene that needs to be taken care of like that? So I am just an idler, and I can see that everyone is ostracizing me." Xie Simin shook his head again.

"Okay, third question. You said you wanted to do something practical for the people and help everyone live a better life. It has been half a year since you went to Donghe Town. Have you done anything practical?"

"No, nothing has been accomplished, nothing has been done successfully." Xie Simin said angrily.

"Then do you know why you can't accomplish anything?"

"why?"

"First, your method is wrong and you haven't found the crux of the problem. Second, you are not popular and have offended everyone around you, so no one is willing to help you. Instead, they deliberately oppose you. Third, you have not grasped the Power, if you don't have power, you won't be able to get things done." Qin Feng concluded.

"I know what you want to say. Secretary Chu also talked to me and asked me to improve the relationship with my colleagues and learn more about human relations. But right is right and wrong is wrong. I can't do anything with these corrupt elements. Complicity." Xie Simin knew what Qin Feng wanted to say.

"Being popular doesn't mean that you have to be complicit, and the things you said are far from relevant." Qin Feng shook his head, knowing that it would be difficult to convince Xie Simin.

"A boat is full of people. Is it faster for you to row alone or for everyone to row together? I don't need to tell you. You should understand this."

"I know what you mean, but the problem is that they are unwilling to paddle. Not only are they unwilling to paddle, they are driving in reverse. What do you want me to do?"

"Let me explain something to you, why I can't control it, why Chu Yutao not only doesn't care, but also criticizes you. Just say that your deputy mayor asked that lady for 500 yuan and a pack of cigarettes. "

"I have done this job before, and I have a strong say. The serious illness relief funds you mentioned do not mean that you will get it if you apply for it. The county has prescribed quotas and total amounts every year. There are many people who want to apply, and the quotas are inherently Mr. Shao, as the department in charge of this matter, naturally he will give quotas to those who have a good relationship with him and whoever benefits from him."

"Your deputy mayor could have ignored this matter, but he did. It shows that he is a person who sincerely works for the people. It is also possible that he is giving you face and is willing to help you."

"If he wants to come to the county to get this quota, he needs to pay the cost of his own connections. Besides, not to mention giving gifts, the most basic thing is to treat guests to a meal, right? Five hundred yuan for a meal is not expensive, right? Give a cigarette. It’s the most basic etiquette.”

"If we don't do this, the aunt will basically not be able to get this indicator. Because there are too many people like her in the county, and everyone wants this indicator."

"Treating guests to dinner and giving him some cigarettes are explicit costs. The implicit cost is that he owes others a favor, and favors must be repaid sooner or later."

"After the aunt got the money, he asked her for 500 yuan and a pack of cigarettes. This was what he paid out of his own pocket for the aunt's matter. Although it is not allowed legally, in terms of human relations, the money should be paid by the aunt. And the aunt should be grateful to him, because if it weren’t for his help, the aunt wouldn’t be able to get a penny.”

"And he didn't get a penny from my aunt. Instead, he paid the invisible cost of connections."

"Now tell me, is he at fault?" Qin Feng asked Xie Simin.
