Zhao Jie didn't care whether Hu Xiaoxing was willing to share the blame with him, he just knew that it might be easier for the two of them to be scolded together...

When he saw Li Lin holding up the teacup, he quickly turned around and picked up the kettle on the tea cabinet, diligently added water for Li Lin, and then quickly returned to his original position, still with a solemn expression, and continued with a sigh, "Leader, it's the two of us who are incompetent..."

It's you who are incompetent, not me, Hu Xiaoxing!

Hu Xiaoxing's mentality was about to explode. Without saying a word, he followed Zhao Jie and became an incompetent person...

He wondered if he would be able to hold his head up in front of County Magistrate Li Lin again.

Zhao Jie then recounted the story of how Liu Li had won over the staff of the management office to protest against him, and finally said with shame, "Leader, I have not completed the task you assigned me. I have no complaints about being punished or punished. I only ask you to give us another chance and give us more time. I don't believe that I can't beat that old woman Liu Li... As for those window units in the approval hall, I have already thought about it. Starting tomorrow, I will move a table and sit at the door to supervise. I will inform anyone who violates the discipline in the work group. I want to see if they have the shame and dare to deal with the work again!"

The top leader at the department level moves a table to supervise the whole process, just like an invigilator? It's quite interesting to think about it, but it's impractical!

Li Lin could tell that Zhao Jie was speaking in anger because he didn't know how to express his determination, so he just smiled and didn't take it too seriously.

He put down the cup in his hand, looked at the two people and said, "It's not all your fault. I was too impatient. After all, the problems in the approval hall did not form in a day or two. It is unrealistic to expect a short-term solution."

Hearing this, Zhao Jie and Hu Xiaoxing's eyes lit up, and they shouted excitedly in their hearts, "Long live the leader" and "The leader is wise"...

But Li Lin's next words made the two of them feel so ashamed that they wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

He said, "But I just can't understand why Liu Li encouraged the employees to put pressure on you two, the top two leaders. You haven't even managed your subordinates for half a month since you took office. In some ways, aren't you too incompetent? ... And you have the nerve to tell me about this. Aren't you afraid that people will laugh at you if it gets out?"

"The leader... said... that we are incompetent..."

The two people's mood, which had just relaxed, suddenly became tense again.

The head is lowered lower than before, and the fingers are nervously pinching the corner of the clothes...

Zhao Jie had never held such an important position as the top leader, and it was understandable that he had no management experience at the beginning. As long as they stick to their original intentions and accumulate enough experience, they will become competent cadres in the future.

However, the process varies from person to person. Some people are gifted and may adapt in three to two months, while others are dull and need a longer time to adapt... However, the chaos in the approval hall must not be allowed to continue.

Li Lin said to the two calmly, "Tomorrow I will visit the approval hall as usual. If I find that the chaos has not been improved, I will work on the spot and deal with whoever shows up."

"As for what you said about Liu Li, that is an internal problem of your management office. You should find a way to solve it yourself. Don't expect me to help you. If you can't handle this matter well, you two can go back to where you came from!"

Li Lin's tone was not harsh.

But to Zhao Jie and Hu Xiaoxing, it sounded like thunder.

Especially the phrase "Go back to where you came from". If he steps down within less than a month after taking office, not only will his future career be ruined, but he will also be ridiculed in the county and will not be able to hold his head up.

Things have come to this, no matter what background or backing Liu Li has, if you stand in my way, I will fight you!

Zhao Jie made up his mind, slowly raised his head and looked at Li Lin, and said with a firm gaze, "Leader, I understand. Don't worry, I will never let you down again this time!"

Hu Xiaoxing also said, "Please rest assured, County Magistrate Li Lin, I will definitely assist Director Zhao..."

Watching Zhao Jie and Hu Xiaoxing retreat to the door like punched bags and turn away.

A bitter smile appeared on Li Lin's lips.

He thought Zhao Jie was a knife that he could hold in his hand to clear the way, but he didn't expect that this knife was not as sharp as he imagined...

A good knife needs to be sharpened, so let Liu Li, the whetstone, sharpen Zhao Jie's knife!

He picked up the landline phone on the table and called Yang Huating from the County Commission for Discipline Inspection.

If the current situation in the approval hall is to be reversed quickly, the Discipline Inspection Commission must intervene.

At this time, Yang Huating was staring at the clock on the wall, thinking that it would be half an hour before he got off work. Should he take advantage of his free time in the evening and ask Li Lin out for dinner?

The reason why he had this idea was because the recent cases in the county were inexplicably intervened by the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection...

Later, he found out through his connections that Li Lin seemed to be behind these cases.

Someone told him, "Zheng Hao from the case room used to be the deputy team leader under Li Lin. After the reorganization office was abolished, Zheng Hao returned to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. He suddenly went from being an invisible person to a favorite in the eyes of Secretary Yang. He was asked to handle many major cases. Everyone knew that Li Lin was Mayor Qian's man. Mayor Qian and Secretary Yang both worked in the provincial party committee before... If it weren't for Li Lin's help, Zheng Hao would never be able to get into Secretary Yang's eyes even if he continued to work for the rest of his life!"

Someone also told him privately, "Li Lin's background is not simple. His sister is the deputy director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Secretary Wang Jin and Governor Zhao have personally met with him... I heard that he also handled several major cases for the province and he can walk sideways in the Provincial Public Security Bureau... Many leaders in the city, such as Mayor Qian, Mayor Yang, and Mayor Zhang... are very close to him... People like this are not to be offended. Maybe Li Lin intervened in the Shannan County case. Think about it, he happens to be the person in charge of that unit. If he wants to replace someone, he must use some tricks."
