"If, as the rumors say, the person you're dealing with has strong support in Yancheng, then being a small-time mayor like this probably won't be of much use!"
Fang Ren said with a sigh.
"Whether this little mayor is effective or not is not the point. The key is whether someone can get the higher-ups to take this seriously.
You don't need to do anything else. This young mayor is more than that. If he didn't have the skills, the higher-ups wouldn't have parachuted him in as mayor before the Liang Mingxian case was even determined!"
The voice said.
. . . . . .
Feng Yuxing felt a little heavy-hearted. After returning to the city government, he had lunch in the cafeteria and then went back to his residence to rest.
The afternoon sun, accompanied by air conditioning, shines through the window and onto the desk.
He arrived at the office on time and sat down, his eyes never leaving the financial summary report he brought back from the Finance Bureau on his desk, focusing on the information hidden behind the numbers.
In this world full of strange data, find the common ground and reveal the unknown secrets hidden beneath the financial data.
"Fang Ren's series of behaviors are all tinged with strangeness, yet his behavior is so smooth that it's hard to say what he's doing! It's as if all of this was prepared for me. What's going on here?
If this is true, a director-level cadre wouldn't be so meticulous, nor would he have the guts to do something like this. Is there someone powerful behind Fang Ren?"
Feng and Xing kept thinking.
"It seems that the waters of Yuanxi are murky! This shouldn't just be a problem with my predecessor, Liang Mingxian. My mission is an upgraded version!"
"Yuanxi is no weaker than Yinhai, but as the provincial capital, Zhouxi has never been heard of as arrogant and domineering as those big families in Yinhai provincial capital. Could it be that the eldest sons of these big families in Zhouxi City are kinder than me?"
His every move now makes the news. Just now, his visit to the Finance Bureau attracted some attention again.
The first person to react quickly was the municipal party secretary Huan Tongmin, who was in the office of Deputy Governor and Police Chief Ling Butong at the time.
"Governor Bu Tong, Feng Yuxing went to the Finance Bureau this morning. I heard he had a great chat with Director Fang Ren!"
After saying this, Huan Tongmin looked at Ling Butong, picked up the teacup and drank tea.
"Hmm! It seems that Fang Ren is quite cunning. He believes everything he hears. You'd better be careful. If necessary, you can knock him down and don't let him get too cocky!"
Ling Butong thought about it and said.
"Governor Bu Tong, I think Feng Yuxing will adjust Comrade Gu Rong's responsibilities! I think he will definitely take over the Finance Bureau!"
Huan Tongmin said this casually, because he knew that as long as he mentioned this matter, Ling Bu Tong would take it seriously.
The work arrangements of the municipal government are all made by the mayor himself. If there are special needs, he will discuss it with the municipal party secretary. However, if the mayor makes arbitrarily arrangements regarding the work of the deputy mayors, no one can interfere.
"That kid wouldn't dare. What I said in my office that day was very clear. It's impossible for him to ignore the words of his superiors!"
Ling Butong spoke with full confidence, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart at this time.
"Governor Bu Tong, I think your trick might work for other officials, but it will probably backfire on our new mayor. Of course, this is just my personal opinion!"
Huan Tongmin spoke in a calm tone, but his face showed some worry.
"If that's the case, then he must have the ability to manage effectively!" Ling Butong encouraged Huan Tongmin.
Huan Tongmin's judgment was correct. At 4 p.m., Feng Yuxing asked Jiang Baibo, director of the municipal government office, to notify that a municipal meeting would be held at 9 a.m. tomorrow.
The next morning at 9 o'clock, the mayor's meeting of the municipal government was held on time.
Before, the deputy mayors all knew that according to Feng Yuxing's style, they would not let Deputy Mayor Yi Gurong be in charge of so many core departments alone.
Before, Liang Mingxian was very cautious and did not dare to split Yi Guyong's responsibilities, but Feng Yuxing, the young mayor, would definitely dare to do so.
Feng Yuxing looked at everyone and said:
"This is the second mayoral meeting I've held since taking office. The first time, I had no idea about the situation in Zhouxi City. After a few days of understanding, I'm going to make some adjustments to your responsibilities!"
"Here it comes!" the participants thought to themselves.
Even though they had an idea in mind, they didn't expect Feng Yuxing to be so direct. They didn't even need an opening statement and just stated the theme right away.
Feng Yuxing's actions were of course a direct counterattack against Deputy Provincial Party Committee Ling Bu.
Making Vice Governor Ling Butong lose face is just a superficial matter. His purpose is to see what Ling Butong will do next.
Only when the target object moves will there be a flaw. Otherwise, it all depends on guessing, and the results are inaccurate and brain-consuming.
The four deputy mayors had different expressions on their faces.
Yi Gurong had a rather gloomy look on his face, while the other three had no negative expressions on their faces, but their expressions were different.
Feng Yuxing continued,
"Based on my understanding of your characteristics and work needs, I will make slight adjustments to your responsibilities. This adjustment only involves two people, Comrade Cheng Yi and Comrade Gu Rong.
For me, the adjustment is relatively simple. I just need to swap the responsibilities of Comrade Gu Rong and Comrade Cheng Yi!
It will take me some time to understand our Zhouxi City system, so the ones I am directly in charge of will stick to the original system..."
"How cruel!" A thought popped up in Xing Loulan, Jin Shanqiu and Cheng Yi's minds.
They were certain that Feng Yuxing would adjust Yi Gurong's responsibilities, and they knew it well. However, they did not expect that Feng Yuxing, the new mayor, would suddenly cut off Yi Gurong's responsibilities.
You know, the police department and the financial department that Yi Gurong was originally in charge of were lucrative and powerful departments, and were usually managed by the mayor himself.
However, with the full support of Deputy Provincial Party Committee Ling Butong and Huan Tongmin, the department originally under the direct control of the mayor was handed over to Deputy Mayor Yi Gurong, which also made him popular for a while.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yuxing did not take back the customer service department from Yi Gurong, but instead assigned it to Chang Chang Cheng Yi.
This action confused and puzzled everyone present, even Cheng Yi himself was at a loss.
Feng Yuxing's sudden action made it impossible for everyone to guess his intentions.
Everyone turned their eyes to Cheng Yi, only to see that he looked bewildered, with confusion and bewilderment in his eyes.
Judging from his expression, it didn't seem like he was pretending to be ignorant, but rather that he really had no idea what was going on.
Everyone couldn't help but start to wonder, could it be that this matter was not something that Mayor Feng Yuxing and Cheng Yi had discussed as they had guessed?
Feng Yuxing continued, "You two, complete the handover within three days and do not affect the efficient operation of the municipal government!"
