The two leaders looked at each other without saying anything.
"Qin Chizian asked, "secretary, Town mayor, do you mean the county is asking us to bear all the expenses for the Woven Art Festival ourselves?"
Wan Hongcai and Jian Junzhan both nodded, waiting for their subordinate to illogically challenge the decision from the county, and then propose a way for the two of them to openly reject the county's decision.
But to their disappointment, Qin Chizian thought for a while and then said, "If the county agrees that we not only self-support, but also self-finance, I think we can still hold the art festival!"
"Collect? Who are you collecting money from? There's only spending, where is there a place to collect money? You really don't know how to manage the household and don't understand the value of money!" Jian Junzhan said impatiently.
Wan Hongcai lit another cigarette and waited quietly for Qin Chizian to continue speaking.
Qin Chizian continued, " Secretary Wan and Town mayor, listen to me, let's do it this way...
So, as long as the county agrees for us to be self-funded, I think we can't say how much we'll earn, but at least we won't lose money!"
Two leaders finally relaxed under the "deception" of their subordinate Qin Chizian: If things could be handled this way, it would be as beautiful as a mother crying for her son - beautiful! The "conspiracy" of the three people continued past lunchtime, and in the end, not only was the general direction determined, but the details were also discussed.
The discussion was almost finished, and when they checked the time, it was almost half past one in the afternoon. Jian Junzhan waved his hand and said, "Let's go back to my place. I'll have my wife make something delicious!"
Wan Hongcai said, "Forget it, let's eat at a restaurant. I'll personally treat everyone!"
In the evening, Qin Chizian began to write his top-secret plan in the office.
According to the two leaders, this "idea" was proposed by Deputy County Magistrate Wu: an invitation issued in the name of the County Committee and county government to hold a grand "The First Wenyuan Woven Art Festival" at Baliushu. There would be a magnificent art performance, and invitations would be sent out for visits, investment promotion, and product exchanges to both within and outside the county, as well as to higher authorities...
But the county finances refused to contribute a single penny.
Deputy County Magistrate Wu even said, "Baliushu has money now, so it is only right to take from the people and use it for the people!"
Damn it, is this for the people? This is clearly just using Baliushu's money to put a pretty face on you all!
Wan Hongcai and Jian Junzhan are willing to take on the burden, but they find themselves powerless.
Qin Chizian When this subordinate returned, the two of them finally had a backbone, and after the direction was determined, they jointly sought an audience with the secretary and the county magistrate.
The leadership attached great importance to this, not only did the county magistrate and secretary attend, but also the deputy secretary, Deputy County Magistrate, and all the standing committee members were present.
Wan Hongcai spoke: "Secretary Li, County Magistrate Gao, and all leaders, after the last meeting, we conveyed the relevant instructions and opinions from the county. Although there were different voices within the team, we ultimately unified our thoughts.
Through careful study of the County Committee and government’s decision regarding the Willow Weaving Art Festival, we believe that the county's plan is very forward-looking and has a positive guiding significance for the economic development of the entire county..."
"In principle, we at Baliushu Township agree with the directives and plans from the county!
However, after discussions among our team, we have a few minor issues we would like to bring to the organization."
Li Honghai and Gau Songshan originally thought that Wan Hongcai and Jian Junzhan were there to compete, but they did not expect such a perspective. The two exchanged glances, and Li Honghai spoke first: "Baliushu is capable of considering the bigger picture and understanding the overall situation. The organization is very supportive as long as the general direction is correct; minor issues can be addressed as best as possible. If there are any specific circumstances, please feel free to share."
Jian Junzhan put on a reluctant yet compelled expression and said, "Leaders, let me address the specifics: First, we believe that holding the arts festival for three days feels a bit rushed. Instead, why not take advantage of the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month and extend it to five days?"
Li Honghai glanced at Gau Songshan, and both of them smiled to themselves: "What kind of problem is this?"
Gau Songshan directly agreed: "I agree."
Li Honghai said, "No problem."
Each member of the Standing Committee believes that Jian Junzhan must have a long-haired in his head: knowing it's a pit, not only does he jump in, but he also tries to dig the pit bigger.
Without a doubt, this proposal will be passed unanimously.
Jian Jun raised a second question: "Can the expenses for the reception of senior leaders and the labor costs of performers be advanced by county finances and settled with county finances after the end of the art festival?"
Before the main leader could speak, Deputy County Magistrate Wu was the first to voice his opinion. "Village Chief Jian, why do we have to go through all this trouble? Why not just settle it directly with the finances of Baliushu Township?"
— By that time, if you still refuse to settle with the county, will there be enough firewood left in the stove? The county won't be taken for a fool; I won't fall for that trick!
Li Honghai nodded in agreement with Wu Youshun's statement, and the other standing committee members also echoed his sentiment.
Minister of Organization Miao Jiantao shook his head secretly, thinking, "The leaders are always trying to get the upper hand, how could they be fooled by your tricks?"
Cheng Lining, in charge of the disciplinary inspection, subtly shook his head at Wan Hongcai: "What kind of terrible moves are these?"
Seeing that there was no way to turn the situation around, Jian Junzhan added, "So, can the venue fees we collect during the exhibition be directly deposited into Baliushu Township's account?"
Wu Youshun almost laughed out loud: "This poor guy, it's just a small amount of money."
At the moment, I immediately stated: "I think it's possible." Li Honghai and Gau Songshan also expressed their agreement.
Thus, the proposal was approved.
In the end, Jian Junzhan finally unleashed his ultimate move: "The road from Wenyuan to Baliushu is not easy to traverse, as all the leaders are aware. After organizing the art festival, we hardly have any money left in our accounts. However, the public's demand for road repairs is very high. If we approach this from both a theoretical and practical standpoint, the public will be furious. At that point, it could have negative repercussions. Our village won't suffer much; after all, we can just say it's an 'upper-level decision.' What I'm worried about is that they will accuse the county of letting their 'butts dictate their brains'..."
Everyone fell silent.
Jian Junzhan and Wan Hongcai sat there watching quietly.
The voice of the people poses a dilemma for the decisions of individuals.
Several minutes passed, some people drank water, some doodled in their notebooks, seemingly calm, but turmoil raged in each person's heart.
Everyone present knew the actual cause of the matter, but it's harder to silence the mouths of the people than to prevent floods. You can't possibly shut them all up: millions have been spent, yet not a single ripple has been heard, and the road beneath our feet is undeniably in terrible condition. Is it wrong for them to curse you?
Finally, Cheng Lining, who was in charge of discipline inspection, spoke up: "Let me say a few words. The condition of Baliushu Road is indeed a very real issue. It's one thing that it's inconvenient for the public to travel, and let's not even mention the voices of the people. What will the guests and higher-ups think when they come to visit and communicate...?"
Indeed, ordinary people can pretend not to hear or not to know when they are criticized, but if the leaders have their own ideas, things become complicated...
