Chapter 2164: Don’t Want to Take the Risk

After Liu Xiaoping finished speaking, he looked at Qin Feng with a smile, without further expressing his attitude. Everyone knew that this attitude was not easy to express.

"What does the mayor mean?" Qin Feng would not give Liu Xiaoping a chance to "speculate" and asked Liu Xiaoping directly what he meant.

"We must listen to Vice Governor Deng's opinions, otherwise it will be difficult for us to carry out many tasks in Xiquan in the future." Liu Xiaoping said. They are all thousand-year-old foxes and will never be stupid enough to make things clear. If they make things clear, they will have to take responsibility if something goes wrong.

Qin Feng nodded and continued, "We must listen to Vice Governor Deng's opinions, but we also need to see how we listen to them, don't you think?"

"What do you want to hear?" Liu Xiaoping asked.

"I still want to hear the mayor's opinion first." Qin Feng is also a seasoned man and it's not easy for him to reveal his cards first.

"Qin Feng, you still have to consider the overall situation and don't worry too much about some minor details. You must know that we have to listen to Vice Governor Deng's words. The Xiquan poverty alleviation flag cannot fall, so the Tai'an County relocation project for poverty alleviation must be completed successfully without any problems." Liu Xiaoping expressed his attitude.

"Mayor, of course I understand this logic, but I am responsible for poverty alleviation work, and I have to sign this signature. If nothing goes wrong, then everyone will be happy. But what if something goes wrong? I can't shoulder this responsibility. Moreover, as far as this project is concerned, if nothing goes wrong now, something will go wrong in the future. It will happen sooner or later. I can't move forward alone under this risk." Qin Feng also made his words very clear.

"Qin Feng, you worry too much. The project is in Tai'an County, and there is Vice Governor Deng in the province. Nothing can go wrong with this project." Liu Xiaoping continued to persuade Qin Feng.

"Nothing is absolute in this world. I never put my fate in the hands of others." Qin Feng shook his head and continued, "Mayor, I have made this clear to Master Deng. I will be flexible where necessary, but I will also stick to the principles that need to be adhered to."

"He must assure me that there will be no problems in principle. As for the minor details, I will turn a blind eye. I will give him time to make the rectifications. After the rectifications are in place, I will go to inspect. I will sign immediately after the inspection is passed. I think this is the best choice for him, for me, for Xiquan City, and for the people of Tai'an County." Qin Feng continued.

Qin Feng did not listen to Liu Xiaoping, nor did he give Liu Xiaoping a chance to continue. In this matter, Liu Xiaoping had the right to make suggestions, but he did not have the right to order Qin Feng what to do.

Liu Xiaoping looked at Qin Feng calmly, but in the end he said nothing. Finally he nodded and said, "Okay, I won't interfere with what you want to do, but you must grasp the right degree. Again, we have to listen to Vice Governor Deng's words. This project cannot have any problems. A landmark project must become a model."

Qin Feng also understood the reminder in Liu Xiaoping's words, smiled and said: "Okay, I'll try my best!"

"Qin Feng, have you noticed that our Xiquan Municipal Government has been peaceful and smooth at work in the two months since you took office?" Liu Xiaoping asked.

Qin Feng didn't quite understand what Liu Xiaoping meant, he just smiled.

"I didn't lie to you when I told you that. I have fulfilled all my promises to you." Liu Xiaoping said with a smile.

Qin Feng finally understood what Liu Xiaoping meant, and smiled, "Mayor, whether it's you or me, we are all serving the people. As long as it's beneficial to the people, we should do it, don't you think?"

After saying some nonsense, Qin Feng discussed some important issues of the municipal government recently with Liu Xiaoping, and then left Liu Xiaoping's office.

Qin Feng originally thought that Deng Xiaogang would honestly make the rectification, which would take at least a month. However, what Qin Feng did not expect was that three days later, Tai'an County Mayor Yan Yibin came to Qin Feng's office and told Qin Feng that all work on the relocation project had been prepared and that their county government had already conducted a comprehensive inspection and confirmed that there were no problems.

After hearing what Yan Yibin said, Qin Feng couldn't help but frown.

"Are you sure there is no problem?" Qin Feng asked Yan Yibin again.

"Mayor Qin, don't worry. We have organized relevant units to check repeatedly several times. We can confirm that this project has fully met the acceptance standards and there are no problems." Yan Yibin was very confident.

Yan Yibin had already said this, and Qin Feng had no more to say.

"In that case, I will give the municipal government a heads-up and ask them to make the arrangements. I will take some time out in the next few days to inspect the project. You can contact the municipal government office to make the arrangements."

Qin Feng must do what he promised to Deng Xiaogang. Since Deng Xiaogang said that the rectification has been completed, he will naturally go to inspect it.

However, as a member of the Municipal Party Committee and Executive Vice Mayor, Qin Feng has very high standards when he goes out to inspect work. It is not possible for Qin Feng to just call his secretary and driver and go wherever he wants. This matter must be arranged by the Municipal Government Office or even the Secretary-General of the Municipal Government.

Although this level is not as high as that of the mayor, it is not much different. Many things are not decided by Qin Feng himself, and Qin Feng does not have so much time and energy to take care of these things.

After Yan Yibin left Qin Feng's office, Qin Feng fell into deep thought with a frown on his face. This Deng Xiaogang had once again posed a big problem to Qin Feng.

It seems that Qin Feng has always deliberately ignored the relocation poverty alleviation project, but as the deputy mayor in charge of poverty alleviation, how could he really ignore this project? So Qin Feng actually had some understanding of this project in private. It was through understanding Qin Feng that he realized how complicated this project was and how many problems it contained.

But Qin Feng also understood that this project was Deng Xiaogang's project, with Vice Governor Deng sitting behind him. At that time, Huang Jiancheng and Liu Xiaoping were both in charge of this project. The entire Tai'an County almost became a decoration of Deng Xiaogang. Qin Feng didn't want to touch this project at all, and he didn't have the ability to do so at that time.

But now that he has become the executive vice mayor, he is fully responsible for this project and he cannot push it off even if he wants to.

Qin Feng still did not want to offend Vice Governor Deng and create problems for himself, but he also could not tolerate Deng Xiaogang's serious fraud on this project, so he came up with a win-win solution, asking Deng Xiaogang to go back and make corrections. As long as the corrections were in place, even if it was only 70% of the design, and there were no major problems, Qin Feng would sign immediately.

Qin Feng has given Deng Xiaogang enough face, but Deng Xiaogang obviously did not take Qin Feng's goodwill seriously.

Is it possible that Deng Xiaogang said that the rectification had been completed in just three days? It is definitely impossible.

In Qin Feng's view, this shows that Deng Xiaogang urgently needs the money, so he is very anxious. Secondly, it also shows that Deng Xiaogang still did not take Qin Feng's words seriously, and he may not really take Qin Feng seriously. He just pretended to make corrections for three days, and Qin Feng came to inspect if he wanted to. He was sure that Qin Feng would not dare to do anything to him.
