Chapter 44 Collective Consultation
There was nothing wrong all night, only Wei Yonglin tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. The scene of Tang Zifeng rushing up to pull his collar appeared in front of him repeatedly. He closed his eyes a little, and felt that a desert eagle seemed to be pushed onto his temple. Several times his wife's breathing hit his neck made him sweat so much that he was covered in cold sweat.
After dawn the next day, Wei Yonglin walked out carefully with his briefcase, and the bank's car was waiting at his door on time. When he got in the car, he was still very uneasy, thinking whether Tang Zifeng would set up hundreds of killers and wait on his way to the bank. After finally getting to the bank and sitting in his office, Wei Yonglin breathed a sigh of relief. The bank still has a certain level of safety. Unless Tang Zifeng could get a cannon, it should not threaten his safety.
"Governor, Mr. Ning, the chief economist of Linyiji, wants to see you."
The secretary came over to report.
"No!" Wei Yonglin roared angrily, as if this was the only way to show his domineering aura.
The secretary was inexplicably not sure what medicine the president took in the wrong morning, but he did not dare to ask, so he could only timidly withdraw and then apologized to Ning Suyun in a tactful way, saying that the president was holding an important meeting and asked President Ning to come again another day.
Ning Suyun didn't bother her much. After asking Wei Yonglin that he might have time, he left. When the secretary came back to report to Wei Yonglin, Wei Yonglin asked with some concern: "After you say this, she will leave?"
"Yes, she's gone." The secretary replied.
"She didn't say anything?"
"She asked you when you have time, and I said it would be tomorrow at the earliest."
"She didn't firmly ask to see me right away?"
"No."
"Will she come back?"
"Well……"
The secretary is dumb, ask me, who will I go? Leader, do you want to see Ning Suyun? I just said "I don't see you" and I want to shout it out with a loudspeaker. Now that I'm leaving, why do you seem a little reluctant to leave?
"There is nothing unusual on the side of the Yiji?" Wei Yonglin asked again.
"No……"
"Send someone to see it. If anything is wrong, report it to me immediately."
"...President, what did you ask someone to see?"
The secretary was about to cry, and this request was too strange. What could happen in a factory? I sent someone to see it, what would I see?
Wei Yonglin also knew that he was not calm enough. He really couldn't think of any ruthless moves Tang Zifeng would deal with him. He now regretted that he should go to see Ning Suyun, at least he could spy on the next plan from her. Now that he was in the light and his opponent was in the dark, the feeling of being in the dark was really bad.
As nervous as Wei Yonglin, there was also Lu Zhenghong. He said he didn't have to worry about what Tang Zifeng did, but he was still a little uneasy. The main reason was that Tang Zifeng's behavior was too outrageous yesterday. He was not a person who played according to common sense. Will he really tie something to threaten Wei Yonglin?
One morning passed and it was peaceful. After work in the afternoon, Lu Zhenghong held a small meeting and asked several subordinates in charge to discuss some work. Just after he sent a subordinate director away, secretary Lu Wei hurried into his office. As soon as he entered the door, he said nervously: "Mayor, something is wrong, something happened!"
"What's wrong!"
Lu Zhenghong stood up at once. Because he got up too hard, the stars in front of him flashed with a dizzy feeling. He stopped Lu Wei from coming to support him, and just asked, "What happened?"
"The employees and their families of Linyi Machinery surrounded the Industrial and Commercial Branch and shouted slogans saying that they would capture Wei Yonglin alive!" Lu Wei said.
"Catch Wei Yonglin alive!" Lu Zhenghong's face changed, "How many people are there?"
"Several thousands!" Lu Wei said, "The police have passed, Mayor Zhao has gone to the mayor's office, and the mayor asks you to go there too."
"Linyiji, these bastards!" Lu Zhenghong cursed, raised his legs and walked out. Thousands of people went out on the streets, which was not a trivial matter. This was caused by the deducting money from Linyiji. He, the deputy mayor in charge of the worker and the trade, could not be out of the matter.
When he came to Mayor Gao He's office, Lu Zhenghong found that Zhao Ximan, the deputy mayor in charge of politics and law, was indeed there. Seeing Lu Zhenghong coming in, Gao He said: "Old Lu, do you know what happened to the Industrial and Commercial Branch?"
"I heard Xiao Lu say it just now, but I'm not sure." Lu Zhenghong said.
Zhao Ximan said: "Just just now, about 3,000 people came out of the factory area of Linyi Machinery and went to the Municipal Industrial and Commercial Branch with slogans. These people were employees and families of Linyi Machinery. They surrounded the Industrial and Commercial Branch and said they wanted to get back their hard-earned money. They also said that they would capture Wei Yonglin alive. I have arranged for the public security to go to the scene to maintain order, but we have not yet had time to investigate the cause of the incident."
"Old Lu, do you know the reason for this?" Gao He asked.
Lu Zhenghong nodded with a dark face and said, "I probably know something."
Next, he told the story of the Industrial and Commercial Branch seized the payment for the Linyi Machinery, and Zhou Heng and others came to ask for an explanation, and there was no missing the scene of Tang Zifeng threatening Wei Yonglin.
"You mean, their assistant to the factory manager threatens Wei Yonglin in front of you?" Zhao Ximan asked in disbelief.
"And he was pulling Old Wei's collar..." Lu Zhenghong said, and at the same time he felt a little faintly painful. He had just calculated the time. The time when the employees of Linyi Machinery left the factory was exactly the time when Zhou Heng and the others left his office the day before. In other words, Tang Zifeng threatened to give Wei Yonglin only 24 hours, and there was almost no extra time for a minute or a second. When the time came, the workers set off.
If we say that Tang Zifeng is behind this incident, he, as the deputy mayor, has no right to feed dogs. But he dare not make any promises whether Zhou Heng was involved in this matter. After all, Zhou Heng is the head of Linyi Machinery appointed by the Ministry of Machinery, so he should not make such a fool of himself, right?
"What's going on with the new leader of the first round? Do you still have a little political awareness!" Gao He slapped the table directly.
This is an extremely serious matter for employees to go out to the streets. If something happens, no matter who the superiors are, they will hit the mayor, the butt. The Industrial and Commercial Branch deducted the money from Linyiji. This is indeed a bit too much, but can't you tell them well? If it really doesn't work, you can give Wei Yonglin one, maybe Wei Yonglin will release the money when he feels soft. Without saying a word, you organized thousands of people to go to the Industrial and Commercial Branch. Isn't this the Linhe Municipal Government meant to treat the Linhe Municipal Government as a dish?
"Old Lu, you are here with me. Call the factory office of Linyiji and ask them what they want to do!" Gao He ordered.
There were phone numbers of major units in Linhe on Gao He’s desk. Lu Zhenghong found the phone number of Linyi Machinery Factory and dialed the number out.
The person who answered the phone was Fan Caihong. When he heard Lu Zhenghong's voice, Fan Caihong seemed to be a little happy and said, "It's Mayor Lu, just in time, I'm going to report to you. There are some employees and families in our factory who don't know the truth. I heard that because the Industrial and Commercial Branch deducted our money, they were unable to receive their wages, so they went to the Industrial and Commercial Branch for consultation..."
Thousands of people shouted slogans and surrounded a unit. Do you call this consultation?
Lu Zhenghong endured the feeling of faint pain and said coldly: "Director Fan, are you sure this matter was not organized by your factory?"
"Absolutely not!" Fan Caihong screamed as if she was being stepped on her tail, "Mayor Lu, our factory department has no idea about this in advance. When it comes to this, all our factory leaders have come to the scene and are trying hard to persuade employees and their families to remain restrained and not to disrupt social order."
"Are you Director Zhou here?" Lu Zhenghong asked again.
"He went to Nanwu early in the morning." Fan Caihong said.
Nanwu is the capital of Dongye Province. Zhou Heng encountered a soft nail in Lu Zhenghong and rushed to the provincial capital for activities in the morning. However, Lu Zhenghong knew in his heart that Zhou Heng's move was just to create evidence of "not being on the scene". When he had to deal with this "collective consultation" incident in the future, he would have enough room.
"So, where is your Assistant Tang?" Lu Zhenghong continued to ask.
Fan Caihong said: "Assistant Tang went to the scene."
"Which factory leader is there at home?"
"I'm not at home. Some are on business trips, some are sick and don't come to work. Those who come to work go to the scene to handle things, and only I'm left to guard the house." Fan Caihong said very fluently.
Lu Zhenghong detained the phone directly. Damn, Linyiji is going to play the game. He organized thousands of people to go to the Industrial and Commercial Branch, and all the leaders avoided it, making Linhe City unable to find a real boss. The leadership team of Linyiji obviously understood what kind of passiveness this action would cause Linhe City to fall into. They wanted to use this method to demonstrate to Linhe City and force Linhe City to come forward to solve the problem.
“What should I do now?”
Gao He listened to the call between Lu Zhenghong and Fan Caihong and also realized the reason. He asked two colleagues.
"At present, we can only stabilize the situation first." Zhao Ximan said, "The Industrial and Commercial Branch is next to the People's Square. With these thousands of people surrounding them, the traffic around the People's Square must have been completely interrupted, and there will be many people watching. This is a group incident."
"Old Lu, when you go to the scene, be sure to find the leader of the first round and ask them to take the workers back immediately. If you have any problems, you can talk about them well. If you have such a thing, you are not afraid of something going on?" Gao He said to Lu Zhenghong.
"But, Mayor Gao, if they continue to make a request for full loan, will we agree?" Lu Zhenghong asked for instructions.
