Chapter 230 How Daring People Are
Amidst the stunned expressions of Wang Boan and a group of Zhongzhou officials, an argument broke out on the other end of the phone.
"You want everything. There are millions of refugees. Why do you want them?"
"Just let them in and I'll provide them with food, water, and shelter, isn't that enough?"
"Do you have money?"
"have."
"Do you have supplies?"
"purchase."
"Where do you live?"
"establish."
"Changshan County has suddenly added five million people. We need at least 3,000 tons of food every day. We have to import all this food. If it gets stuck, we're finished!"
"The Democratic Party has had a great harvest!"
"That's only 1.5 million acres of land, which can't support five million refugees!"
"Open up wasteland and then cultivate the land."
"How much can you harvest from one acre of land? How many acres of land do you need to feed so many people?"
"There's nothing I, the Nine Heavens Exiled Immortal Lin Wen, can't do."
"Could you please stop messing around!"
"What nonsense..."
"Little friend Lin." Wang Boan couldn't bear to listen any longer. He interrupted and said, "I'm very grateful for your kindness..."
"Oh, thank you for what? No need to say anything. As soon as I heard there was a Mr. Wang next door, I decided to take them all..."
"Lin Wen! If you don't give me a reasonable explanation right now, I'm quitting!"
"Haha, stop lying to me. You're so angry when you tell lies, don't you understand?"
"You, you're talking nonsense again... I'm going to team up with Xia Xiaoxiang to sideline you! You'll be left with nothing!"
"There's such a good thing? Go ahead and fight."
"cough!"
Wang Boan intervened again forcefully. As a powerful governor, he was rarely ignored, especially by lower-level officials.
He also didn't want to be so eager to help his little friend, which caused internal conflicts.
"Little friend Lin, I think Director Qin is right. It's difficult for you to take on so many people. I appreciate your kindness, but..."
"No, no, no, no, Governor Wang, listen to me. You're fighting on the front lines, and you still have to take care of refugees in the back. You have to allocate most of your supplies, food, drinks, and medicine. If you're short of so much, what will happen to the soldiers on the front lines?"
"If you don't understand, are you going to just watch the refugees die? The City Hall is responsible for such a heavy workload of resettlement and management, how can it concentrate on fighting the enemy on the front lines?"
"If you're not fighting well, won't there be more and more refugees? So, do you understand? I'm not helping you, I'm helping the empire! I, Lin Wen, love my country the most! In life, I'm the soul of the empire; in death, I'm the ghost of the empire. Please grant me this once!"
It was rare that Wang Boan was actually a little moved. In the past, if someone said such words, he would just think that person was a flatterer of Xing Jin.
But now, he has proved with actual actions that he said these words not to gain, but to give.
The guys in the conference room were all excited.
"This brother is good."
"That's very well said."
"If we didn't have to provide for the refugees, we would never have fought this war!"
"Governor, I think that since the brother from Changshan County dared to speak, he must have some extraordinary qualities."
"Yes, yes. He must be confident before he says that."
Wang Boan was also a little shaken, and under Lin Wen's strong insistence, Qin Luoshuang also compromised. She sighed and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I will do my best to help you."
"Be good, that's right, let me touch yours... Ouch! Why did you hit me?"
"I'm warning you, Lin Wen! Xia Xiaoxiang has already told me about your perverted hobby, and I will never agree to it!"
…
Listening to their noise, Wang Boan's dead heart seemed to come back to life. A breath of youth and love poured in, making him feel some hope for the world again.
“There’s something beautiful here.”
He thought.
"I shouldn't despair. Yu Zhongxian and those demons and monsters cannot represent the entire empire."
"Yes, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will keep fighting."
However, there are still nearly 5 million refugees in his territory. The children of Changshan County are kind-hearted, and as an elder, he cannot act rashly.
After careful consideration and discussion, Wang Boan agreed to the initial resettlement plan for 500,000 people.
If Changshan County can properly accommodate these 500,000 refugees and the government office does not encounter any difficulties, it will accept a second batch.
After hanging up the phone, the long-lost strength filled Wang Boan's muscles again.
He glanced to the south and through the window could see dust rising on the distant horizon. That was the Zhongzhou government army that was covering the evacuation of a large number of civilians to Minghai City.
Wang Boan felt a surge of pride in his heart.
"You bastards of the Papal States, once your grandfather is freed from his burdens, I'll show you the might of the Central Plains God of War!"
He shouted, "Call back all the combat generals!"
——
Changshan County.
As soon as Lin Wen came out of the office, he ran into Xia Xiaoxiang who came over after hearing the news.
After learning what had happened, she became unexpectedly excited and immediately betrayed her best friend.
"I fully support you, Brother Lin! Forget about that washboard and focus on accepting the refugees!"
But Lin Wen didn't want this sister at all.
"Please call me County Chief Lin, or just call me by my name."
"Okay, Brother Lin."
Lin Wen didn't bother to pay attention to her, but the witch kept pestering him.
"Brother Lin..."
"Either Lin Wen or County Chief Lin, or I'm going to get angry."
Xia Xiaoxiang didn't care. "Okay, Lin Wen, you need to convene a general meeting of Changshan County immediately."
"Why?"
"Establish order!"
Xia Xiaoxiang widened her eyes in disbelief.
"How long has it been since you last held a meeting? If you don't hold meetings, how can you unify your thoughts? How can you act in unison? How can you exert your strength? The personnel adjustments between you and me were not made public at the meeting, so they will never be convincing. Do you understand?"
Lin Wen hesitated for a moment. He really disliked meetings, but it was undeniable that meetings were very useful and necessary at certain times.
At this time, Changshan County really needs a general meeting to determine the direction, strengthen confidence, and improve the state of some people's inaction.
"Okay, get ready. We'll convene a general meeting right away."
Xia Xiaoxiang immediately smiled happily.
To be honest, she is quite cute when she smiles like this.
Like a leaping fire, sparks flying everywhere.
That night.
The second plenary meeting of Changshan County was held.
Although the time was short, Xia Xiaoxiang was still well prepared.
All officials at the town level and above have joined the association, totaling more than 150 people, three times more than the last meeting.
Except for Zhao Minggong who was unable to attend due to illness and a few officials who had special reasons, everyone came.
Everyone was filled with excitement and nervousness, and it was obvious that they had been looking forward to this meeting for a long time.
Just like last time, Lin Wen sat directly on the stage, picked up the documents that Xia Xiaoxiang had prepared urgently, and began to announce the personnel changes.
In fact, most personnel changes have already been implemented.
Now that it is announced at the plenary session, it is like a formal announcement.
Just like a wedding of newlyweds, it is a public announcement, a formal appointment, which can calm people's hearts and settle the atmosphere.
It is difficult for people without relevant experience to understand, but almost all large and normally functioning organizations will do this, just like the emperor must announce his accession to the throne to the world.
But there are also a few promises that Lin Wen has not yet fulfilled.
For example, Lao Xie, to this day, he has gone through countless hardships and tests, and finally officially promoted to the director of the Finance Department, which he had always dreamed of. He also successfully suppressed Lao Lei and fulfilled his long-cherished wish for more than ten years.
Then came the first official to defect to Lin Wen, the fat man Yuan Zhimen. He had a low presence and mostly did hard and miscellaneous work, but he did a good job and made no mistakes.
He was officially promoted to director of the county governor's office, and Li Xiaoli was promoted to deputy director of the office.
Fang Weiwei became the only county secretary, but she no longer cared much about the salary this position brought.
The position of Director of the Inspectorate was given to Yun Zhixing. The Inspectorate was basically controlled by the KGB, and it was just a symbolic position.
Yang Shaohu became the second deputy county magistrate of Changshan County. He was prepared to take over the duties of Zhao Minggong, the Wolong.
There are also the mayor of Xinzhen, Ji Fuxiao, deputy mayor Xiao Li, and the mayor of Shangxi Town, Chen Xingtai, deputy mayor Yun Qingshui and others, who have also implemented their corresponding powers in the government hall one by one.
In addition, there are many officials promoted by Xia Xiaoxiang through the Ministry of Personnel.
This part of the speech was the most lengthy. Lin Wen's throat was smoking from reading so much and his mind was beginning to become hazy, but the people below were still listening with great interest.
After the long speech was finished, the structure of Changshan County was basically stable.
The county government office has a complete structure, clear powers and responsibilities, a clear administrative structure, and a smooth organizational chain. Changshan County can finally be considered a normally functioning government office.
Instead of being Lin Wen's personal toilet paper.
Then, according to the meeting process, Lin Wen should read out the spirit of the meeting and ensure its implementation.
The 100,000-word meeting spirit was written by Xia Xiaoxiang.
Lin Wen finally finished reading and said.
"I just want to add one thing."
"Criminals, please be careful, I will kill."
Just one sentence and it's done.
This is really a little bit, not a billion bits.
The presiding judge, Fang Yaobo, agreed: "Endangering the people is anti-humanity, corruption and bribery is anti-humanity, and dereliction of duty is anti-humanity."
Qin Luoshuang, Director of the Security Bureau and Head of the County Chief's Guard Department, was more direct:
"Stay alert and calm, for eyes are everywhere. When the crows cry, the knell tolls."
The atmosphere of the meeting became solemn. The threats from these two people were not groundless. Fang Yaobo's reputation as an "anti-human system" was already well known.
Qin Luoshuang's crow is an ominous symbol.
But most of the new members have not yet realized that the real terrifying person is the young county chief on the stage who said lightly, "I will kill people."
Next, the meeting began to discuss the refugee resettlement issue that Lin Wen was most concerned about.
