Once the execution result was announced, it caused an uproar in the Alliance.
The Supervisory Yuan gave special approval to the corruption gang headed by Wu Zhaoshan in Gucheng. All processing procedures were accelerated and special cases were dealt with.
More than 20 people, including Wu Zhaoshan, deceived superiors and concealed their actions, illegally concealed the exploitation of public resources, ignored laws and disciplines, and were punished for several crimes including dereliction of duty. Eight of the leaders were sentenced to death and executed immediately. Others involved were given the most severe punishment.
As soon as the verdict came out, major newspapers and magazines in the alliance rushed to report it, and it immediately spread throughout the country.
This is the most serious criminal incident since the alliance was unified, with more than 200 people involved.
Lin Yan and Shui Sheng were also discussing this matter, and the impact was really too bad.
When she learned the truth, she really couldn't believe it. The secrets hidden in Gucheng were so huge, and the courage of Wu Zhaoshan and others was really shocking.
Even after the dust settled, she still couldn't get rid of her anger when she brought it up again. "Some people said that this matter was handled too much and was inconsistent with the purpose of the alliance, which is to put life first. Do you think people who think this way have a serious brain disease? ?”
Hua Min nodded immediately, "It's just a flaw in the brain. Why do you have to worry about them? The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds."
"If it were you, how could you not be angry?" Lin Yancai didn't believe it. Hua Min would explode at the first moment. This was because she hadn't encountered this, otherwise there would be no peace at all.
Shuisheng: "Don't pay attention. There are always people who like to argue and show their differences. Pulling the banner of the alliance is not just taking advantage of public opinion and wanting more attention."
Huang Ying agreed, "That's right, there are more and more people like this. They always think that they are God and have to take care of everything. In fact, they are just rats hiding in the dark and cannot see the light."
She changed the topic and said, "The Gucheng incident is over. The gold mines privately mined by Wu Zhaoshan and others cannot be recovered in full. It is better to seize the time to find out the remaining stock, which can solve the urgent need."
Lin Yan: "That's right. Shui Sheng, have you calculated the collected property?"
"Yes, part of it was lost." Shui Sheng nodded, "On the books, there were 128,000 taels of gold, but the actual seizure was only over 105,000 taels. It is true that we cannot recover it."
He was very heartbroken. He lost more than 23,000 taels of gold, which was more than 200,000 yuan converted into sun coins.
Hua Min said angrily: "There is so much corruption in one Gucheng, and there should be a lot in other cities. Capturing them all will be enough to fill the financial deficit."
"Don't worry, Gucheng is just the beginning." Lin Yan sneered, "We worry about money every day, but some people are poaching and are so rich that they have to scrape off the skin no matter what."
In fact, they are all happy to see the results. There are too many places to spend money this year, we cannot make ends meet, and we have already spent all the budget for the next ten years.
A few more like Gucheng can greatly alleviate the current funding gap.
But there are always some people who overestimate their capabilities, jump out to look for trouble, and insinuate the top leaders of the league.
In today's increasingly open alliance environment, freedom of speech is a must. There were more and more people like this, and it wasn't that Lin Yan couldn't bear it. He just said a few words, which was innocuous.
As long as you don't act recklessly and secretly, everything is easy to talk about.
Huang Ying answered: "Finally, I have money in my account, and the financial pressure can be reduced. However, after using it to build schools in Anzhou and Yongzhou, there is not much left."
Shuisheng followed: "The seized gold is directly exchanged in the bank and allocated to Lanya. There is indeed not much left. It will cost a lot to build two state universities. Let's talk about the construction of electric power plants first. Bar."
The theme of their gathering today is: the construction of electric power infrastructure has been temporarily stopped, and the investment in power plants has far exceeded expectations. It didn't cost much to lay the lines, because the wires and other items were prepared one after another in the past few years and were produced and sold by ourselves.
It took more than two months to complete the line laying in Sun City, and everyone craned their necks in anticipation of when the electricity would be connected.
Many people have already bought light bulbs at home and connected them after laying the circuit, just waiting for the power to come on.
However, at this critical moment, power plant construction had to slow down.
After Shui Sheng finished speaking, the expressions of several people suddenly changed, and they were no longer relaxed at all.
Shi Zhi was still at the construction site and could not attend the meeting, otherwise several people would have faced his life-threatening temptation.
Halfway through construction, the budget was gone. It's impossible to stop work, so we can only come together and think of something.
Huang Ying said simply: "Why don't we take the money collected from Yongzhou and Anzhou first and put the construction of the school on hold."
"The money has been given to Lanya. She has opened the stall. Do you think it is possible to stop work at this time?" It's not that Shuisheng has never thought of this method, but who made Lanya move faster.
Huang Ying sighed, "It's impossible. People in Anzhou and Yongzhou are all staring at the school, just waiting for the school to be built and opened to send their children there."
Just like the people in Sun City are all focused on power generation, they are all keeping a close eye on it. The decree has been issued, but it is not good to change it halfway.
Hua Min rolled his eyes and suggested: "Why not collect the electricity bill in advance, and use the money collected to build a thermal power plant and provide electricity to the city. The charges for general electricity and industrial electricity are different. Sun City has a large population. The industry is second to none in the alliance. Judging from the current investment, the charging standards set before are too low, and the standards must be raised so that the amount of electricity bills collected in advance will not be small."
Lin Yan and others' eyes lit up. They were really in a desperate situation.
She was already thinking about whether to enclose a piece of land and sell it, so as to get some blood back and get over the current difficulties first.
What Hua Min said is very reasonable. Such a large investment is just to allow everyone in Sun City to enjoy the convenience of electricity.
The initial fee is higher and will be adjusted later. I believe everyone can understand it.
Huang Ying smiled and praised, "Hua Min, you are still thinking fast. The power plant is built for everyone. It is very feasible to charge fees first to ensure electricity. People in the city crane their necks in anticipation. They will definitely be happy to let them pay first. Light bulbs It’s not cheap either, they can buy it in advance for backup and pay the electricity bill.”
Shui Sheng's eyes lit up, "The electricity bill is based on usage and requires pre-deposit in advance. We just moved the time forward, so it's not a big problem. Pre-deposit for the first time allows each household to pay more and use it later. Fund-raising is the key now. The most important thing.”
There are so many families in the city, and if each family collects a little, it will add up to a large sum.
Lin Yan made the final decision, "Let's do it. Find Shi Zhi and let's re-check the electricity bill standards."
The investment far exceeded expectations, and the previous pricing was indeed low. It will take decades to recoup the investment in infrastructure construction alone.
She had an idea, "There is an infrastructure fee for opening an account for the first time. Previously, we considered waiving this part for everyone. Now that the situation has changed, we have to reconsider."
Several people looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
They also want to serve the people wholeheartedly, but the reality does not allow it. They can only increase relevant fees, but they will certainly not ask for exorbitant prices.
