Chapter 61 Difficulties at the grassroots level
Section 61: Difficulties at the grassroots level
Wang Erkai waved his hand to stop Cui Tianqin who was about to speak. Although this matter was Cui Tianqin's opinion, he agreed. Since he had expressed his opinion and was the party secretary, he naturally had to bear the responsibility. But he didn't expect that Zhao Guodong, who was rarely seen angry, would be so angry this time, which made Wang Erkai feel a little nervous.
"Mr. Zhao, I arranged this matter. The county's funds for relocated households have been paid a long time ago. The funds for the first twenty households have been paid in place, and the work is also very smooth. The situation of these three companies is a little special, and we need to find a suitable residence for them. We originally planned to put them aside, and there are some problems in the town that need to be solved urgently, so we misappropriated the relocation funds first, and I will bear the responsibility." Although Wang Erkai was a little confident, he still seemed very calm.
"Secretary Wang,..." Cui Tianqin raised her thick eyebrows and showed an unhappy look on her face. Cui Tianqin was not a matter of no responsibility. Although Wang Erkai agreed to this matter, the suggestion was taken out by himself, and the specific operation was done by himself. Wang Erkai had no choice but to agree when the matter was final.
"Needless to say, Mayor Cui, if you don't suggest that, I will do that." Wang Erkai's face turned cold and waved his hand indisputably, "I am the Party Secretary. If the matter comes, I will be responsible."
"Ho ho, Wang Erkai, Cui Tianqin, what kind of play do you two sing in front of me? I don't care about any serious urgent matters in your town, I just know that this money was allocated specifically by the county to solve the funds for relocated households. If you don't move, you don't even say that you have to pay for the relocated households, and you don't want to pay for the relocated households, you don't want to pay for the relocated households, and you don't want to pay for the relocated households. What did I say about the party's discipline? Where did you put the party's discipline?!"
Zhao Guodong was so angry that he was itchy.
He knew that it was also difficult for the grassroots at the grassroots level below, especially after the tax system reform, local finances plummeted. The more grassroots the grassroots level, the more specific it is. It has become a common practice to eat grains in the first half. Loans, spending money, and embezzlement is even more common, but this amount of money is different. For relocated households, this is the money for their lives and lives. If you are spending money, you can only wait. However, it is not accurate to pay off the money at the town level. Zhao Guodong knew very well that once this was delayed, it would be a very bad start.
"County Magistrate Zhao, we also have our practical difficulties. Private teachers in the town have not received living subsidies for more than a year. It is almost September. Many teachers' children are facing school, and some have to go to college. This is a considerable expense. If we continue to drag on this, we are worried that it will seriously undermine their enthusiasm for work and may even cause more serious consequences. So this time I dared to embezzle the relocation funds by spending more than 100,000 yuan. I wanted to find some way to make up for it as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that you, County Magistrate Zhao, would find out."
Wang Erkai smiled bitterly. He knew that Zhao Guodong must be very disappointed with him. He repeatedly emphasized the importance of this project with himself, especially for the first time, which is very important for leaving a good impression on foreign investors.
But looking at the simple and heavy figures of private teachers, he really couldn't make a decision to let the other party wait any longer. Cui Tianqin's suggestion was just a lead. Even if Cui Tianqin didn't make this suggestion, he probably would have to misappropriate the money.
"Private teachers?" Zhao Guodong frowned. This is another special problem. Hualin County is located in a remote location and the number of public teachers is seriously insufficient. Private teachers account for a considerable proportion of the teacher system. Every township has dozens of people-run teachers. According to Hualin County's practice, the subsidies for private teachers are solved by the township finance. They only have a few dozen yuan subsidies per month, but even these dozen yuan is difficult to get on time. No wonder Wang Erkai is so bold in taking office and dares to embezzle this money.
Seeing that Zhao Guodong's face improved, Wang Erkai felt a little calm, "County Magistrate Zhao, Mayor Cui and I will make up for this money in the shortest time. Please give me a week, and Mayor Cui and I will guarantee to solve this problem."
"One week? Ensure to solve this problem?" Although Zhao Guodong's face was still ugly, his tone gradually eased: "Mayor Cui, your Secretary Wang said that you guarantee to solve the problem within a week. Do you have this confidence? As far as I know, many career cadres in your Mashou Town have been owed for several months, and the cadres in the agency are similar. Wang Erkai, do you have the confidence to solve it within a week?"
"Oh, if the province does not take such strict control measures against alloys, our town will not be so difficult." Cui Tianqin sighed.
Zhao Guodong also knew what Cui Tianqin meant.
In the past year, the Ningling area and even the whole province's rural cooperation foundation have been continuously liable for loan fraud and embezzlement, and it has been on the rise. Several articles written by Zhao Guodong and Lei Xiangdonghe on preventing financial risks in rural non-bank financial institutions have been sent to the desks of the main leaders of the provincial party committee and government, which has attracted the attention of the main leaders of the provincial government. In addition to the national requirement to rectify the rural cooperation foundation, Anyuan Province has started to carry out quite strict special work to rectify the rural cooperation foundation at the end of last year.
The General Office of the Provincial Government, the Provincial People's Bank of China, and the Department of Agriculture have also set up special supervision and inspection teams to inspect and supervise the cleaning and rectification of township and rural cooperation foundations in various counties and cities. It should be said that this work in the province has been carried out in a timely manner, which has largely avoided the infinite expansion of the risks of financial entities that are free from financial supervision, and has played a good role in standardizing and cooling.
Of course, this also made the township governments that have always regarded township foundations as cash machines feel extremely unchanged. Since the county also sent a supervision team to supervise, almost every loan now needs to be finalized and approved by the rectification group office of the county rural office, and it is unlikely that the government will lend funds at will.
Zhao Guodong has a deep understanding of the risks of the cooperative foundation, especially when some village-level organizations have begun to start cooperative foundations and issue loans on a large scale, you can imagine how great the risks such an operational model without any professionalism will bring. If you are not careful, you will lose everything. Not only will the township finance be completely bankrupt, but even the county-level finance will also create a huge black hole.
In Zhao Guodong's impression, even a county like Jiangkou County, which is a better-operated county, was carrying huge debts when the country completely closed the Alloy Association after the Asian financial crisis in 1998. It took several years to pay off the accounts. Without exception, the government finance acted as a sucker, which also made Zhao Guodong have a deep impression of this matter.
It is also for this reason that Zhao Guodong and Youlei Xiangdong have joined forces to publish articles in some financial and financial magazines under the same pseudonym, alerting to the impact of the blind development of rural alloys on the economy. Although this has not received much attention in the local area, it has attracted considerable attention from the top. It is precisely because of this that Lei Xiangdong has won the favor of the above and has become the assistant president of the Provincial Agricultural Development Bank.
However, in the current climate, the country only requires cleaning up and rectification, and does not require closure, so the alloy association still exists. However, the Anyuan Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government have taken some cleaning up and rectification measures that are different from other provinces, especially strengthening the monitoring of the direction and scale of the alloy association lending, and strictly ordering the active recycling of loans. This has caused the development momentum of the Anyuan Provincial Rural Alloy Association to shrink rapidly, which naturally has caused some dissatisfaction among local governments, especially grassroots governments.
If the alloys at all levels of the above governments would not be so strict, the Mashou Town Government could easily borrow a sum of money from the town alloy association to solve the urgent problem. However, since the provincial government came to strict orders at the beginning of the year, various places have set up cleaning and rectification teams, and the efforts to clean up and rectify the situation with unprecedented efforts have almost come to a halt for issuing loans. Basically, they are mainly about recycling the original loans. This has also completely failed to make the grassroots government's plan to use alloy association as a backup vault, so Cui Tianqin, who was used to the original "shelf" who had no money and went to the alloy association to find a way.
"Hmph, it is definitely a good thing to rectify the alloy club. Look at the loan recovery situation of your alloy club, you will know how high your operating standards are." Zhao Guodong shook his head, and the topic returned to the main topic: "Mayor Cui, I am very suspicious of your Secretary Wang's confidence, and I believe his promises, the government is responsible for the finances. I want to ask you if there is any problem? If not, that's good. If there is, then answer me truthfully!"
Cui Tianqin was a little hesitant. She didn't expect that Zhao Guodong ignored Wang Erkai, who looked embarrassed, and asked herself directly. Although she was in charge of finance, it would not work without the party secretary nodding in such a big matter. Her eyes became hesitant. She glanced at Wang Erkai, but saw that Wang Erkai was also vague. Obviously, she couldn't tell how to answer to what Zhao Guodong meant.
"County Magistrate Zhao, if you want me to tell the truth, then I have to say that it is a bit troublesome to fill this money in a week, unless we borrow money from private places, which is a bit harmful to the government's image. However, County Magistrate Zhao is not blamed for Secretary Wang, so he came. This financial hole was exposed by me, the mayor. If you want to deal with it, you can deal with it." Cui Tianqin gritted her teeth and told the truth.
"Hmph, you Cui Tianqin is okay, you are responsible, and you dare to tell the truth. Unlike some comrades who can only talk big, but when I say this financial hole, I don't agree with it. This is also some negative effects brought about by the reform of our country's tax system. It is caused by the big climate. Now we need to consider how to change the unfavorable situation in response to this situation, and developing Qilin View - Hulunshan Tourism Scenic Area is the first step."
