When Li Xuelan revealed the truth, she immediately deflated.
He kept muttering, "It's over, it's over, Mayor Wan will definitely retaliate against us!"
County Chief Guo's face turned pale instantly!
I never expected it to be Mayor Wan!
I thought he was a city official. This is incredibly embarrassing!
Mayor Cui gave County Chief Guo a cold look.
This is what you call a "good official"!
Gu Yuanming immediately said, "Mortgage! Mortgage! County Chief Guo, I propose we call Mayor Wan here for a confrontation!"
County Chief Guo immediately realized what was happening and said, "Yes, call him over. Go now!"
If I don't do something now, Mayor Cui won't give me a friendly look.
Gu Yuanming nodded and called a few people to head to Qingyang Town.
The group entered the office.
Mayor Cui remained silent without uttering a word.
County Chief Guo wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Mayor Cui, I failed in my management duties, and I apologize."
Wu Changfeng said from the side, "County Chief Guo, this has nothing to do with you. It was my big blunder. Alas, it's a pity that the 50,000 yuan has gone down the drain."
Mayor Cui said calmly, "What's the point of wasting time? Does Mayor Wan think he can't get things done without a fancy desk?"
"Give me back the desk, all I want now is a school desk!"
Wu Changfeng nodded: "Listen to the leader, Li Xuelan, hurry up and return it, and replace it with a desk."
Li Xuelan breathed a sigh of relief; her performance was over, and she hurriedly ran out.
Director Zheng, along with several school principals, took turns trying to persuade them.
Solve whatever problems arise.
The desks can wait, it's okay.
Wu Changfeng apologized while blaming himself.
quite a while.
Gu Yuanming returned and looked at everyone with a grim expression.
County Magistrate Guo asked, "Where are they?"
Gu Yuanming said somewhat awkwardly, "Mayor Wan has been brought, but... how about we wait before confronting him? He..."
Mayor Cui slammed his hand on the table: "Bring him in! What time is it? Are you still trying to stall for time!"
Gu Yuanming scratched his head: "Okay."
Mayor Wan was carried in by several people.
Everyone looked.
Wow!
Goodness.
His face was flushed and his neck was thick from drinking, and his breath reeked of alcohol.
I don't know what we ate, the whole house smells sour and rotten.
Mayor Wan raised his eyelids, his eyes lighting up instantly. He rushed to Mayor Cui's side and shouted loudly:
"Mayor Cui! You're coming without even letting me know. Aren't you looking down on me?"
"What are you still sitting here for? Come on, let me make the arrangements. Let's stew some turtles and have a good drink!"
Mayor Cui's face contorted with rage as he shouted, "Nonsense! Drinking like this at midday, what kind of behavior is this!"
County Chief Guo grabbed Town Mayor Wan: "Wake up! I'm asking you, did you ask Qimingxing to buy you an office desk?"
Mayor Wan was completely drunk and answered whatever came to mind: "What's wrong? Can't the town just replace the desks?"
"The Morning Star is willing to give me money because I'm the boss!"
"County Magistrate, you want it? I'll have the accountant get the money for you right away. It's nothing, just a drop in the bucket!"
County Chief Guo, his eyes blazing with fury, roared, "You son of a bitch..."
Mayor Cui felt that Mayor Wan could no longer be allowed to talk nonsense; the facts were clear and beyond question.
He immediately instructed the others, "Carry this man surnamed Wan back to town and take him home to sober up."
Mayor Cui's speech basically set the tone.
The surname is Wan, not Mayor Wan.
They were sent home, not back to the town government.
I'm losing my job!
Mayor Cui rubbed his temples and then summarized: "Although there were some unexpected issues at the donation ceremony, the overall atmosphere was positive and uplifting."
"We must severely punish anyone within our ranks who has damaged our image!"
"As for the desks, Director Zheng, please go to the furniture factory to pick them up."
"At the same time, newspaper publicity is still necessary."
Director Zheng nodded.
Mayor Cui continued, "County Chief Guo is temporarily serving as the acting mayor of Qingyang Town. His responsibilities are even heavier now, so please don't hold a grudge."
County Chief Guo said with a smile, "No problem at all."
This reassured County Chief Guo.
In Mayor Cui's eyes, County Chief Guo was still a good comrade; otherwise, he wouldn't have taken over as acting head of Qingyang Town.
Mayor Cui waved his hand: "Alright, everyone disperse. I'd like to have a private talk with Director Wu."
The group dispersed on their own, going about their own business.
Wu Changfeng poured tea for Mayor Cui in his office and said apologetically, "Look at the mess this has made, I really didn't know anything about it."
Mayor Cui laughed: "Alright, your little scheme is too low-level."
"To put it bluntly, don't you know what's going on with your company?"
"I don't believe you, go and check the financial expenditures."
Wu Changfeng was taken aback. "If you see through something, don't say it!"
Mayor Cui showed no mercy, stripping away all pretense of justice from Wu Changfeng: "He set up a trap, all he wanted was for us to uphold justice."
"This matter is something you can discuss with County Chief Guo, and he can get it done."
"But there's one thing you're afraid of."
"It's fine that Mayor Wan was dealt with, but shouldn't a newly appointed mayor also be subject to extortion of businesses?"
"You don't need to worry now, County Chief Guo will take care of it for you."
Wu Changfeng awkwardly sipped his tea: "Mayor Cui... this tea is good, please have some!"
Mayor Cui took a sip: "It's really good."
Wu Changfeng quickly changed the subject: "Mayor, you said there were instructions from the province?"
Mayor Cui rummaged through his pocket and took out a document: "The first thing is that you intercepted 10 million US dollars from Shenshui Province at the Canton Fair."
"With the help of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, Shenshui has already voided the contract. You need to get it stamped again and transfer the contract to our province's account."
