His heart was so relieved that Zhao Tiechui almost floated when he walked.
He pretended to come back from the toilet, ran over with a smile, and said to County Magistrate Xiong:
"Okay! Okay! County Magistrate Xiong, I just went to check again, and basically all the production brigades have roads open.
Which production brigade should we go to first?"
"Let's go to the Linjiagou Production Brigade where Lin Huowang is! Didn't you just say that this was a play you directed and acted in yourself?
Let this young man named Lin Huowang cooperate with you to warn of rat plagues, instead of directly issuing an announcement in the official tone of the commune.
Your method is quite good. It not only serves as an early warning, but also does not cause real panic among the people because it is too official."
County Magistrate Xiong praised Zhao Tiechui again, making him feel even more elated.
Zhao Tiechui really admired his own brain for being able to come up with such a perfect reason.
In this case, even if anyone else came to tell County Magistrate Xiong that the rat plague warning was first proposed by Lin Huowang, Zhao Tiechui, as the president, would have strongly opposed and ridiculed it many times.
County Magistrate Xiong could only laugh and mock these people, saying, "You have all been deceived by Director Zhao's superb acting skills."
He is working in cahoots with Lin Huowang to provide more reasonable early warning of rat infestations!
This is not...
They had just walked out of the commune building and were about to take the county jeep to the countryside.
We ran into the commune secretary Liu Qisheng and his son who were returning on a tractor.
"County Magistrate Xiong! Why are you here in person?"
Secretary Liu was flattered when he saw County Governor Xiong coming.
He quickly jumped off the tractor and ran to County Magistrate Xiong to report.
"Secretary Liu! You just came back from leading the militia to build roads? It's not easy! As the party secretary of a commune, you lead by example and are a good cadre and role model for our party."
Secretary Xiong was in a very good mood and couldn't wait to praise everyone he met.
"This is nothing, it's just my job.
It’s just that County Chief Xiong, you came to our commune, do you have any instructions?..."
Secretary Liu had a bad feeling in his heart, especially when he saw Zhao Tiechui standing next to County Magistrate Xiong with a smile on his face, he frowned and asked tentatively.
"I dare not give any instructions today, Secretary Liu! As a county magistrate, I am really ashamed of myself!
Today I have come to your Red Star Commune to do some research and study, without any hesitation.
This is all thanks to Director Zhao, otherwise he would have rushed to the county early yesterday to report.
I didn't know that our county was hit by such a rat plague, and your Red Star Commune responded so well and even issued an early warning to the production brigades below.
It's amazing! It's really amazing!
I would especially like to praise your Director Zhao. Right now the grassroots level lacks cadres like him who are observant and wise.
I just told Director Zhao that I would ask the county party secretary for permission for the only outstanding cadre position in the county this year, and I will give it to Director Zhao.
Secretary Liu, you need to be more balanced and don't be jealous!
Haha! After all, the early warning and prevention of the entire rat plague were all ideas and methods proposed by Director Zhao.
Saving so many villagers is truly a great achievement."
When Liu Qisheng, the Party Secretary of Red Star Commune, heard this, his eyes widened and he looked at Zhao Tiechui in disbelief.
"Xiong... County Magistrate Xiong, are you sure you want to give Director Zhao the credit for being an outstanding cadre and for warning about the rat plague?
Who told you that Director Zhao made the greatest contribution?"
Originally, as the top secretary, Liu Qisheng was very inappropriate to say such words in front of the leaders.
It's easy for your leader to think that you, as the top leader, have no tolerance for others!
When your second-in-command subordinate has made a contribution, you are the first to question and oppose him. What does that mean?
Sure enough, when County Magistrate Xiong heard this, his face immediately tensed up, his voice became stern, and he questioned Liu Qisheng:
"What? Is there a problem?
Liu Qisheng, although you are the Party Secretary of Red Star Commune.
But I just did some research in the commune, and I found out that in the past few years, you hardly asked about anything, and at most you made some arrangements for party members' activities.
Most of the work is undertaken by Director Zhao.
Could it be that now that Director Zhao has made such a great contribution, you, the Party Secretary who has been lazy for several years, have become diligent and want to compete for this credit?"
In the officialdom, it has actually been the same from ancient times to the present.
It is normal for the top leaders to compete for credit and slander and attack each other in front of their superiors.
When Secretary Liu heard this, his face changed and he knew he had said the wrong thing in front of his leader.
He quickly changed his tone and said to ease the atmosphere:
"No, no, no! County Magistrate Xiong, you misunderstood me.
I'm not trying to take credit for it, but this credit is not mine, and it won't belong to Director Zhao either.
It was Lin Huowang, a villager in Linjiagou. He was the first to warn of the rat plague at the public trial. Later, he mobilized almost all the production team leaders at the year-end meeting to prepare for the prevention of the rat plague..."
At this point, Secretary Liu pointed angrily at Zhao Tiechui who looked smug beside him and cursed:
“Director Zhao not only did not believe Lin Huowang’s prediction, he even used his position as director to suppress and belittle Lin Huowang.
How could a person like him be so shameless as to come to you, County Magistrate Xiong, to seek credit?
"Zhao Tiechui, you dare to snatch such a great achievement?"
