County Magistrate Qi called his secretary over and said coldly.
"Hurry up and get ready now. Let's go to Hongdong Township right away."
"Since they are unwilling to advance the work, then I will go and inspect it myself. I would like to see what they want to do?"
As soon as his secretary heard that the county magistrate was going out for inspection, he quickly informed Hongdong Township and Song Shuyi of the news.
"Head of Township Song and County Head Qi are going to inspect our place soon. Please prepare as soon as possible."
When Song Shuyi heard this, she immediately understood. It was obvious that the other party was here to investigate.
The villagers made trouble in the morning, and the county magistrate came to inspect in the afternoon. Even a fool should understand what is going on.
However, Song Shuyi didn't have the slightest fear and still said with a smile.
"Well, we will definitely support the work of the county commissioner."
After Song Shuyi hung up the phone, she couldn't help but fell into deep thought. He knew very well that County Magistrate Qi coming in person this time would definitely put a lot of pressure on him.
How should he resist and how should he deal with it? These are all issues that must be considered.
This project definitely cannot be released anyway, but as a direct subordinate of County Magistrate Qi, it is not convenient for him to directly support the other party.
Then let's bring Zhang Yi over and let Zhang Yi be the middleman. Even if we fight the other party to the end, it won't have much impact, and there will be some buffer in the middle.
Song Shuyi quickly called Zhang Yi and called Zhang Yi over.
Song Shuyi said solemnly.
"Zhang Yi, I have some very bad news for you."
"County Magistrate Qi is coming down for inspection soon. Are you mentally prepared?"
Zhang Yi had already guessed this. If County Magistrate Qi wanted to use this project to make money, he would definitely try every means to put pressure on himself. How could he just sit back and watch?
Now being pushed back by the villagers, he came to look for trouble. This was completely expected, and Zhang Yi did not feel surprised.
And Zhang Yi has nothing to be afraid of. What does this matter have to do with Zhang Yi? The villagers are unwilling to demolish, what can he do?
He couldn't just let the villagers demolish it by force.
He would not do such a thing to seek death.
If County Magistrate Qi doesn't accept it, then let Magistrate Qi go talk to the villagers. He is the county magistrate. If he thinks it has face, then just give it a try.
Zhang Yi said nonchalantly.
"What's there to prepare for? He can just go find those villagers."
"I'm just the director of the Agricultural Development Office. What does it have to do with me that the villagers are unwilling to demolish?"
"Even if he comes to ask me, I won't say a word. Let him hire someone else."
Song Shuyi smiled and nodded. With Zhang Yi's attitude, Song Shuyi felt relieved.
"Okay, then when County Magistrate Qi comes, you can tell him this."
After saying that, the two of them went to make their own preparations.
County Magistrate Qi quickly arrived at the township government in a car. At this time, Song Shuyi led the main staff of his office to greet him.
To some extent, the two sides are incompatible.
Even Song Shuyi killed County Magistrate Qi's cronies, but in the officialdom, superficial respectability is still very important. Even if they hate each other very much, they have to pretend to be very friendly.
"County Magistrate Qi, if you can come to inspect our township government, our township government will flourish. With your guidance, we will definitely do better work in the future."
County Magistrate Qi also said kindly.
"Hey, Mayor Song is joking. I can't talk about any inspection. I'm just here to learn from each other."
"Your township has been developing very well in recent years. I'd like to see if there is any experience suitable for the whole county to be promoted?"
The two parties returned to the township government and came to the conference room talking and laughing. Song Shuyi, Zhang Yi and others had already prepared all the information.
There was a tacit understanding between both parties, as if it was really just a routine inspection, and it didn't cause too many waves.
County Magistrate Qi just looked at it casually, rummaged through the information, then turned to look at Zhang Yi and said with a smile.
"Comrade, if I guess correctly, you are Zhang Yi, the director of the Agricultural Construction Office in our town."
Zhang Yi knew why the other party came, and the topic would definitely fall on him, so Zhang Yi was not too surprised, but nodded calmly.
"County Magistrate Qi, I didn't expect you to actually know me! I'm really flattered."
"Yes, I am the director of the Agricultural Construction Office in our township, responsible for the rural construction work in our township."
Zhang Yi deliberately did not mention the demolition-related work. His intention was very clear, that is, to let the other party take the initiative to bring it up.
The intention of taking the initiative to bring up this matter in public was too obvious. If County Magistrate Qi wanted to lose face, he would definitely choose to avoid it.
But what Zhang Yi didn't expect was that County Magistrate Qi's performance was quite straightforward, and he directly brought the topic to the demolition work.
"Director Zhang, if I remember correctly, you seem to be responsible for the demolition work in our township."
"I heard recently that our demolition work is not going very smoothly. What's going on with you?"
The other party was so straightforward, it was obvious that he was impatient, and the question was being asked in public, which was somewhat of an attempt to prosecute.
However, Zhang Yi had already thought of a countermeasure, so he smiled and said nonchalantly.
"Hey, you may not know something. I was actually responsible for this job before, but later it was no longer under my control."
"Our city's urban investment company has already taken over all the demolition work, and they will be responsible for it."
"I am only responsible for the agricultural demolition in our town now, and other matters are not under my control."
In Zhang Yi's view, County Magistrate Qi deliberately brought up the demolition. Although he appeared to be amiable on the surface, he actually wanted to drag Zhang Yi into trouble and take the blame from Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi didn't take this trick and directly threw away the responsibility. Anyway, the people from the urban investment company had taken away the information, and the rest had nothing to do with Zhang Yi.
County Magistrate Qi is also an old man, and this time he has made it clear that he is here to investigate. How could he give Zhang Yi a chance to shirk responsibility? He looked at Zhang Yi and said with a smile.
"Hey, Director Zhang, I'm going to criticize you on this issue."
"Although this task is now handled by the urban investment company, it is for the benefit of our local people after all. We still have to base on the interests of the people. Can't you just say that this task is not yours and you just ignore it?"
"The urban investment company needs to take care of this issue, and you must also take action and advance the work as soon as possible."
