Chapter 2157 Trouble is coming

Wu Zhitao came over and didn't say anything useful except for the normal greetings and some bland work talk, but in fact he had already said everything.

Since Wu Zhitao could come here, he had already said everything that needed to be said.

Qin Feng looked at the gifts placed at the door, picked up his phone and called Li Jianjun: "Come over now, someone sent me a gift, I don't know who sent it, please help me send it to the Commission for Discipline Inspection, remember to keep the receipt, and don't say anything extra."

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the municipal government held a group gathering. Qin Feng spoke first at the meeting, and Liu Xiaoping spoke last.

That evening, the city government held a New Year's dinner and Qin Feng had a few drinks.

In the next few days, Qin Feng's office was crowded with people. All kinds of people who were not qualified to visit Qin Feng's home to wish him a happy new year tried their best to come to Qin Feng's office to report on their work during these few days. They said they were reporting on their work, but in Qin Feng's view, this was actually another form of wishing him a happy new year.

Qin Feng hated this kind of bureaucracy and so-called social etiquette very much, which wasted a lot of his time and energy, but being in this circle, he had to abide by some of the unspoken rules of this circle.

In fact, before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which is the Lantern Festival, government departments cannot be said to have fully entered normal working conditions in the true sense.

After a lot of effort, the New Year was finally over, and Qin Feng began to get really busy. The most important thing for Qin Feng was to draft a scientific and complete poverty alleviation strategy.

The city already had a programmatic document on Xiquan's poverty alleviation strategy. This document was written after Xie Zhiguo organized numerous experts, scholars, and representatives of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference to study and write it shortly after Xie Zhiguo arrived in Xiquan.

There is nothing new about it. The development strategy has been determined to build Xiquan City into a tourist city, a demonstration agricultural city, and a regional logistics center city, which is also a poverty alleviation strategy.

Most of the strategies developed were simply copied from Yi'an's development strategy. It's not that the people in Xiquan City were lazy, but Yi'an was originally a pilot area used by Xiquan to accumulate experience and explore directions for Xiquan's development. Now that Yi'an has successfully developed a strategy with tourism and agriculture as its development direction, Xiquan City will naturally promote this strategy to the entire city.

It is easy to make a strategy, but the difficult part is how to plan and implement it.

The strategy has already been promulgated by the municipal party committee and government, but how to plan and implement it specifically is Qin Feng's job.

So after the beginning of the year, Qin Feng made every effort to organize relevant units, experts, etc. to sit together and study in detail how to draw up a blueprint for Xiquan's poverty alleviation and development.

Qin Feng was also anxious. After drawing up the blueprint, he needed to report to Xie Zhiguo and also to Governor Hu Guangxiang.

Whether it was Governor Hu Guangxiang or Xie Zhiguo, their original intention in putting him in this position was not to let him participate in political games, but to let him lead the entire Xiquan City out of poverty and into prosperity.

Just when Qin Feng was fully focused on formulating a poverty alleviation blueprint, trouble finally came.

Qin Feng was working in the office that day when he suddenly heard Li Jianjun's voice coming from outside.

"Mayor Qin is busy, you can't go in..."

As he was speaking, there was a knock on Qin Feng's door.

"Who is it?" Qin Feng asked.

"Mayor Qin, I'm Deng Xiaogang, and I'd like to come and report to you about the progress of the project." Deng Xiaogang's voice came from outside.

During this period of time, Deng Xiaogang personally or through other leaders invited him to dinner many times, but Qin Feng refused every time because Qin Feng knew very well why Deng Xiaogang was so crazy about looking for him during this period of time.

The first was to get Qin Feng to sign and agree to increase the project funds worth 15 million. The second was to get Qin Feng to agree to the first phase of the acceptance work as soon as possible and sign and agree to the funding, so that Deng Xiaogang could immediately get the project funds worth 100 million.

Qin Feng would not sign these two words, and he could not sign them. Needless to say, the first one was that the 15 million was the second additional payment after Huang Jiancheng approved an additional project payment of 50 million. This amount of money was equivalent to directly putting the money into Deng Xiaogang's pocket in the name of the project. Qin Feng would never agree to it.

As for the second one, although the departments, units and relevant persons in charge signed the acceptance report and issued a qualified acceptance report, Qin Feng never signed the last word because he knew very well that even if these people signed more names to indicate that there was no problem, Qin Feng would never believe that there was no problem with the project done by Deng Xiaogang. Moreover, the more it showed that there was no problem, the more problems there were.

Qin Feng couldn't just sign this, nor did he dare to sign it. If he signed it, he would be the biggest person responsible if something went wrong. Qin Feng didn't trust Deng Xiaogang, a "second-generation official", from the bottom of his heart, so this was why he hadn't signed it.

After Deng Xiaogang tried many times to invite Qin Feng to dinner but to no avail, he tried to find someone to greet Qin Feng, hoping that Qin Feng would sign the two words as soon as possible so that he could get the money as soon as possible, but Qin Feng always treated him perfunctorily.

Qin Feng didn't expect that Deng Xiaogang couldn't help but come to Qin Feng's office in person today.

Since others have already run to the office door, Qin Feng can't pretend not to see it, he must see it.

"Come in!" Qin Feng said lightly.

After Qin Feng finished speaking, the door opened and Deng Xiaogang walked in. Li Jianjun followed him into the office awkwardly, not daring to look at Qin Feng, fearing that Qin Feng would blame him.

"Mayor Qin, long time no see." Deng Xiaogang walked up to Qin Feng and extended his hand with a smile.

This was the second time Qin Feng met Deng Xiaogang. The first time was not long after the project started and Deng Xiaogang came to pay his respects to him. Both times, Deng Xiaogang gave Qin Feng different feelings. The first time, Deng Xiaogang seemed to not take Qin Feng, the deputy mayor, seriously at all, but this time, Deng Xiaogang showed much more respect for Qin Feng.

For Deng Xiaogang, Qin Feng was just an ordinary deputy mayor at first. Although he was in charge of poverty alleviation work, Qin Feng did not have much ability to interfere with the project at that time. Moreover, as the son of a powerful deputy provincial governor, he would not take Qin Feng, a deputy mayor without much specific power, seriously.

But today's Qin Feng is different. Qin Feng is now a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. This identity is much more important. The most important thing is that Deng Xiaogang's money is now completely in Qin Feng's hands. The county magistrate is not as good as the current manager. Everything about Deng Xiaogang's project is completely decided by Qin Feng. If Qin Feng can't pass this test, even the king of heaven will be of no use. This makes Deng Xiaogang dare not disrespect Qin Feng.
