Chapter 287
When Li Mingyang heard what County Magistrate Luo Ming said, he was shocked and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He didn't expect that this matter would reach the ears of County Magistrate Luo so quickly, and that it would be described with exaggeration.
He realized that there must be a "big mouth" in the team going out for inspection and study, who leaked the matter.
What’s worse is that this “big mouth” may have already defected to County Magistrate Luo’s camp.
"County Chief, the situation was truly urgent. We were blocked by local villagers who were extorting us. They were unreasonable and disruptive, and they delayed our inspection. Under those circumstances, I was forced to open fire."
Li Mingyang tried to explain, but he deliberately did not mention that the shooting was suggested by Secretary Wen, because he knew that if he told the truth, not only would County Magistrate Luo catch Secretary Wen's weakness, but it might also bring himself greater trouble.
"Oh?" There was a hint of doubt and dissatisfaction in County Magistrate Luo Ming's tone.
"The power granted to you by the Party and the people is to protect the people, not to harm the people. The guns in your hands should be tools to protect the people, not weapons aimed at the people. What's more, using guns in other places requires a strict approval process. Who gave you such power?" County Magistrate Luo Ming's words became more and more severe, which made Li Mingyang feel pressured.
Seeing Luo Ming getting angry, Li Mingyang stopped refutation. He had seen clearly that County Magistrate Luo's summons today might be aimed at himself and Finance Bureau Director Wang Tao!
"The issue of firing has a very bad impact! The leaders of the Provincial Party Committee have already paid attention to this issue. I have decided to suspend your position as Public Security Bureau Chief for the time being. Political Commissar Zhao Siqi will be in charge of the specific affairs of the Public Security Bureau. We will decide when to resume your position after the matter is investigated thoroughly!" Luo Ming said seriously, but there was an unconcealable pride in his eyes.
Li Mingyang was mentally prepared and expected such a result, but the Finance Bureau Director Wang Tao standing next to him was already scared out of his wits.
Financial issues cannot withstand scrutiny. If the new county magistrate really wants to "investigate thoroughly", I'm afraid he will have to lose his job as the Finance Bureau director today!
Wang Tao quickly said, "County Mayor, I was just looking for you to report on my work..."
......
According to the suggestion of the new county mayor Luo Ming, the first county party committee standing committee meeting since he took office was held.
Before the meeting, Luo Ming came to Wentao's office specifically.
"Brother Wen, you have done a great job in Long County! Even Secretary Tian of the provincial government has high praise for you!" Luo Ming said with a smile.
Although Wentao was the secretary, he was just a newcomer in the provincial party committee. Moreover, when Wentao was the secretary of the organization minister, Luo Ming was the secretary of the third-in-command of the provincial party committee. Naturally, Luo Ming called him "younger brother."
This also shows that Luo Ming is not very convinced of Wen Tao.
"Thank you for your praise, County Magistrate Luo. Wentao does not seek credit, but only avoids mistakes! In the future, we will need County Magistrate Luo's cooperation to steadily improve the work in Long County." Wentao said with a smile.
Luo Ming couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart.
Cooperate with you?
I'll let you taste how powerful I am when the meeting starts later!
I have taken over the Finance Bureau and the Public Security Bureau!
You have no money and no people, so what else can you use to play with me?
The two main leaders of Long County rushed to the county party committee meeting room. When they entered the meeting room, Luo Ming walked in first. Luo Ming did not take Wen Tao, the county party committee secretary, seriously at all!
The meeting began with a brief opening speech to welcome the arrival of County Mayor Luo Ming.
Then personnel issues were discussed immediately.
As the county magistrate, Luo Ming has the power to appoint and dismiss the leaders of the main departments under the county government, and he was the first to speak.
"Our Public Security Bureau Director Li Mingyang made a serious mistake during this field trip! He actually fired a gun at unarmed civilians! The provincial party committee leaders attach great importance to this matter. I have now suspended Li Mingyang's position as Public Security Bureau Director! Political Commissar Zhao Siqi will temporarily be responsible for the daily affairs of the Public Security Bureau. I wonder what everyone thinks?"
The current Li Mingyang was promoted by Secretary Wen. Who in the entire Long County Party Committee and County Government doesn’t know this?
The new county magistrate dismissed the Public Security Bureau chief right after taking office. Isn't this targeting Secretary Wen?
Moreover, all the comrades who participated in the study tour were aware that Public Security Bureau Chief Li Mingyang's shooting was prompted by Secretary Wentao...
Isn't this a blatant slap in the secretary's face?
Is this what County Magistrate Luo meant or what the provincial party committee member meant?
If that's what the provincial leader meant, then Secretary Wen might have offended a big boss...
It is rumored that Secretary Wen has a strong background, but no matter how "strong" it is, it may not be as strong as the close secretary of the third-in-command of the Provincial Party Committee, right?
The faces of the standing committee members could not help but change. County Chief Luo had started a fight with Secretary Wen during the first standing committee meeting. Everyone was afraid that these two "great gods" would fight and accidentally use their skills to splash on them.
"I agree with the county magistrate's actions. Opening fire at unarmed civilians is truly inappropriate and has a detrimental impact! I believe this should be reported to the city government and punished!"
Seeing that no one spoke, Wang Qi, member of the county party committee and secretary-general, stepped in to help.
After hearing Wang Qi's speech, not only Wen Tao frowned, but all the members of the Standing Committee also frowned and turned their eyes to Wang Qi.
As the secretary general of a county party committee, you openly support the county governor?
You should at least restrain yourself a little. You are the secretary general of the county party committee!
Moreover, it was Secretary Wen who saved your life during this study tour. You are such an ungrateful person!
Seeing everyone's gaze, Wang Qi didn't take it seriously. He was already furious that his "little lover" had a crush on Secretary Wen, and he blamed all the humiliation he suffered in Jiangzhou on Wen Tao.
If Jin Tongtong and Wentao hadn't sung love songs, how could he have drunk so much?
If he hadn't been drinking, how could he have gone out to the toilet and gotten beaten?
"County Magistrate Luo is right in his criticism. I also think that Director Li Mingyang's actions at the time were indeed a bit excessive. Now that I think about it carefully, there are many ways to deal with the problem, and there is no need to shoot. I agree to temporarily suspend Li Mingyang's position!" Wen Tao said.
Wen Tao's words made Luo Ming hesitate. He listened to the report from the "relevant cadres" and thought that Wen Tao should be ruthless and extremely protective of his people.
I took down Wen Tao's "die-hard lackey" right from the start, so why didn't he react at all?
Originally, he was ready to "bang the table" at today's Standing Committee meeting. After all, the county party deputy secretary Wang Hua and the executive deputy county magistrate Liu Xudong were both Wentao's people. Even if it came to the voting stage, he was afraid that he really could not defeat Wentao.
Could it be that Wentao is scared?
