1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 555 Township Finance and County Management (3)

DZ City People’s Hospital, Orthopedics Department, outside an operating room.

"Mr. Yang."

"Mr. Yang."

"Mr. Yang."

Seeing Yang Mo appear in their sight with great strides, a large group of people hurriedly stood up and greeted him tremblingly; even Sun Jian, Zhuo Mali and others did not dare to say a word.

Yang Mo glanced at the anxious faces with a gloomy look, but did not respond. Instead, he forced a friendly smile and shook hands with a man in a white coat: "Director Zhang, how is the patient now?"

Dean Zhang, who had been waiting here since Lv Yingying was pushed into the operating room, quickly replied: "Boss Yang, our hospital attaches great importance to Manager Lv's injury. After he was sent to our hospital, we immediately organized a consultation with experts from multiple departments including surgery, internal medicine, and orthopedics. After careful investigation by experts from various departments, it was confirmed that he had fractures of the ulna and olecranon bones of his right hand, plus mild soft tissue damage. Fortunately, there was no serious internal bleeding... Manager Lv is now being rescued by Director Liu of our hospital. Director Liu is a famous orthopedic expert in the province with rich clinical experience. The operation is going smoothly and Manager Lv is not in danger of life for the time being... Please rest assured, we will do our best."

Don't be fooled by what Director Zhang said, which sounded very intimidating, with words like "life-threatening" and "severe internal bleeding" thrown around at every turn. But anyone who knows a little bit about the business knows that this is complete nonsense... Since the ulna and olecranon bones are fractured, the best that can be done is to put in a steel plate and a few more nails to fix it.

However, Yang Mo knew that medical practitioners, especially administrative medical practitioners, always behaved in this way. Hearing that the country girl did not have internal bleeding, he breathed a sigh of relief and shook Dean Zhang's hand again: "Thank you, Dean Zhang."

Dean Zhang felt the strength coming from Yang Mo's hand, and his face was almost full of smiles: "No, no, this is our responsibility."

Logically speaking, as the only one of the three large hospitals in DZ City, there is absolutely no need for them to go to the trouble of setting up an emergency consultation among multiple departments for Tugou's classic orthopedic injury. After all, the people in Texas are simple and honest, and there are at least 8,000 patients with arm fractures every year. For a mere ulna fracture and an olecranon fracture, it is enough to send an attending physician to perform the surgery.

But there is no way. Tugou's identity is quite special. Her position as the manager of the quality control department of Qingfeng Food and various concurrent positions are of course nothing to Dean Zhang...but her identity as Yang Mo's childhood friend cannot make him treat her with full attention.

what?
You say that no matter how great Yang Mo is, he is just the general manager of a second-level unit of a central oil company. Dean Zhang and his colleagues belong to the medical system, and the two sides are not subordinate to each other. If Yang Mo called in person to ask for help, then he would naturally not hesitate to give the other party a face and make good arrangements. But isn't it a bit too embarrassing for him to take the initiative to express such an almost flattering attitude like today?
Haha, isn’t that superficial?

Although Yang Mo is nominally only the general manager of a second-level unit of a central oil enterprise, the urban property fund company he is currently in charge of has a huge influence on the DZ city's supervisory unit. The relationship between Ye Tao, the executive, and Yang Mo is of course well known to everyone, but it is no secret that You Yakun and Tian Guangyue have a love-hate attitude towards this guy, but they have to treat him with caution. Under such circumstances, how could Dean Zhang dare not be on high alert?

But don’t forget that the superior unit of DZ City People’s Hospital is the DZ City Health Bureau, and the Health Bureau is only in charge of a deputy mayor.

………………

"Boss Yang, the suspect has been detained and is now being questioned. Although the other dozens of people who were traveling with him have also been controlled, we don't know how to deal with them. "

"Director Liu asked me to ask Mr. Yang for your opinion, but I don't know... Mr. Yang, what do you mean?"

Seeing that Yang Mo's gloomy expression eased a little, Zheng Guohui, the police station chief in charge of the Dahua Industrial Park area, swallowed, then took two steps closer and asked in a low voice.

What is different from later generations is that due to the unstable social security at that time and the country's determination to rectify it, the local public security system, although also subject to two-level leadership in organizational principles, is often in charge of the local deputy squad leader.

So in DZ City, this area of ​​work is in charge of You Yakun.

Therefore, as soon as something happened to Lu Yingying, Zheng Guohui received a call from his direct superior, asking him to ask Yang Mo for his opinion. The meaning of this was self-evident.

Hearing this, Yang Mo glanced at him lightly, but his expression turned cold again. After a moment of hesitation, he waved his hand and said, "How to deal with it? The national laws have their own regulations. Your company should follow the rules and regulations. Our Dahua Company is just a corporate unit. How can we have the power to give instructions or not?"

Zheng Guohui was a little disappointed when he heard this.

Just as he was thinking about how to report to his leader, he heard Yang Mo change the subject: "However, as a person half involved, there are some things I want to emphasize."

Zheng Guohui suddenly became alert. He glanced at the crowd of people outside the operating room. A sense of joy that a great achievement was about to be accomplished surged up in his heart. He immediately straightened his chest without paying any attention to the impact and said, "Boss Yang, go ahead."

Yang Mo looked at him quietly, his voice seemed calm: "First, although Manager Lu is just an ordinary worker in the drilling company in terms of personnel affiliation, she also serves as the quality control manager of Qingfeng Food, the nominal president of Xialiu Sales Agency, and the special consultant of Dahua Industrial Park Investment Promotion Company;"

"These units have made outstanding contributions to the economic development of DZ City in the past few years. Manager Lu himself has taken the lead and worked day and night on the front line, integrating with the grassroots masses and gaining the support and love of the people."

"Therefore, I hope that your organization will fully consider the social impact that Manager Lu's attack and injury may have in the subsequent investigation process."

Considering social impact?

Does that mean we should be strict and severe?
Zheng Guohui's face straightened: "Yes! Don't worry, Mr. Yang, we will definitely take into account the social impact of the case and deal with it severely. We will never let down the hearts of those companies that have selflessly contributed to the development of DZ City; we will never hurt the hard-earned honor of Dezhou and the feelings of hundreds of thousands of people... I will ask my superiors for instructions and send more people to carefully identify and investigate the remaining 92 suspects. We cannot wrongly accuse a good person, but we will not let any bad guy go!"

Anyone with a little social experience can tell the other person's attitude from the changes in the way Zheng Guohui addresses those people and the subsequent words he uses.

Hearing the words "careful identification and investigation", many people in the crowd couldn't help but change their expressions, but after looking at Yang Mo's expression that was so bland that it was almost indifferent, no one dared to speak.

Yang Mo nodded gently: "Secondly, I have heard about the cause and process of the incident on the way here."

"In my opinion, this matter is full of doubts, especially the initial cause of the case, that is, more than 30 villages in Linyi County collectively breached the contract and switched to growing other vegetables, which led to poor sales. It is full of unreasonable things;"

"After all, Dahua Company has always had a very good cooperative relationship with each village, and the price we purchase vegetables at is not low. More than 2 villages, involving nearly acres of greenhouse vegetables, are collectively replanted. This is definitely not a spontaneous act of ordinary people pursuing economic considerations!"

Zheng Guohui's scalp exploded when he heard this. After swallowing hard, he asked hesitantly, "Boss Yang, what do you mean...?"

Yang Mo snorted coldly: "No one knows the agricultural and sideline industry chain in the entire Dezhou area better than our Dahua Company, so I have every reason to suspect that there is a very likely organized and premeditated case behind this conflict... and the other party's real intention is very likely to destroy the agricultural and sideline industry chain and business environment in the entire Dezhou area, provoke conflicts between officials and the masses, and thus achieve the goal of systematically destroying the economic structure of the Dezhou area!"

"So, as a member of Dezhou, I personally suggest that your organization report this to your superiors, and then conduct an investigation with the relevant units in Linyi County. Taking the case of Manager Lu being attacked and injured as an opportunity, follow the clues to find out if there is any black sheep behind this who is trying to undermine the economic development of DZ City!"

Zheng Guohui almost lost his soul after hearing this.

uncle!

Can't I just call you uncle?

You are not trying to give me credit, you are clearly trying to send me to hell!
Who the hell doesn't know that there are a lot of indescribable chaos between the three levels of county, township and village!

You asked us to investigate, and you put such a big accusation on us, and asked me to ask Youshi to conduct a joint investigation with the relevant departments of Linyi County...

With DZ City being a newly promoted prefecture-level city, and the current chaotic situation both within the city and the county, this is totally going to cause a fight between gods and demons!

I'm just a small director, if I'm not careful I'll be crushed to pieces!
Putting aside other things, just based on the outrageously abundant martial virtues in every village and township nowadays, if I dare to lead a team to conduct a thorough investigation, and if I really make some people unhappy, they will jump out at any minute, do you believe it?

Are you kidding? Do you think the saying “go to the township but not to the village” is a joke?
But he dared not refute Yang Mo's "suggestion".

The matter of jointly conducting an investigation with Linyi County, after all, is something that Director Liu and even You Yakun need to make the final decision on, and there is no guarantee that I will be selected to join the team at that time... Even if I join the team, I may not be so unlucky to end up with a GG.

But if you dare to refute Yang Mo's opinion, you will definitely lose your life.

Although this old man didn't say a single harsh word today, his suppressed rage was visible to everyone. He was clearly an active volcano, and whoever provokes it would die. With the power this big man has now, if he wants to get rid of himself, it would really be a matter of a word... Even You Yakun, who is in charge of their system, would not be willing to take the risk of getting into trouble for a mere small director.

Apart from anything else, the fact that Guangcheng Real Estate Fund Company lowered its bond business indicators for the third quarter in the name of fundraising difficulties was enough to cause a huge blow to the financially tight city.

CTNND, being stuck between these big guys, a small fry like me is really suffering!

With a sigh, Zheng Guohui forced out a flawless smile with a bitter heart, then nodded with difficulty.

Just when he finally organized his words and wanted to give Yang Mo a shot of defense, reminding him not to vent his anger on a small fry like him if You Yakun rejected this proposal...

beep~
A most primitive mobile phone ringtone came from a personal secretary.

Zhuo Junyue quickly walked away a few steps, took out the black brick from her bag and pressed the answer button.

After a few "hmm" and "ah" sounds, he covered the microphone and trotted over to Yang Mo. He leaned close to Yang Mo's ear and whispered, "Boss Yang, it's a call from Linyi County... County Magistrate Ma has heard about Manager Lu's injury and wants to come over to visit. He's on his way now."

After a slight pause, Zhuo Junyue lowered her voice even more: "Also, County Magistrate Ma said that if it's convenient for you, he would like to ask you to sit alone after the visit."

Ok?
Ma Qingyuan?
Want to meet with yourself alone?
Yang Mo frowned, hesitated for a while, and nodded gently: "Okay."

........................

Fracture surgery is not a major operation. In most cases, it can be completed in two to three hours. In addition, when Yang Mo rushed to the hospital, Tugou had already been sent in for more than half an hour. Therefore, with the experts' familiarity with the operation, Yang Mo only had to wait outside for less than an hour before the lights in the operating room went out.

Of course, no matter how successful the operation was, it was impossible to allow visitors right after it was completed. Therefore, after waiting for another half an hour, Yang Mo and others were allowed to enter a cadre ward to visit the unfortunate little girl.

Fortunately, perhaps because the effect of the anesthetic has not completely worn off, Lu Yingying, whose right arm is already in a cast and whose waist has been molded, looks a little pale, but perhaps because of her very good physical condition, her spirit is not too depressed.

"It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. I can only lie on a hard bed all day, and the most important thing is that I can't drink alcohol... I'm doomed!"

Student Tugou waved his limp left hand weakly, looking dejected.

When everyone saw that this girl looked so heartless even though she was almost turning into a mummy, they suddenly felt relieved and couldn't help laughing.

Since he is still thinking about drinking, it means that his injury is not as scary as it looks, as Dean Zhang said.

As long as the person is fine, everything will be fine. So, after greeting and joking around, everyone left the ward at the nurse's reminder.

Yang Mo, who was left at the end of the crowd, took a deep look at the girl on the bed, raised his watch to check the time, then glanced at the nurse at the door who wanted to urge but didn't dare to speak, then turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, Mr. Yang, wait a minute, please stay. I have something important to report to you."

It was classmate Tugou who suddenly called Yang Mo.

Yang Mo stopped, turned his head to look at her, then waved his hand, signaling everyone not to wait for him, then turned back, gently closed the ward door, and directly locked the nurse outside.

"You silly girl, why are you trying so hard to save face and suffer?"

Walking to Tugou classmate, Yang Mo frowned in dissatisfaction, then picked up the brand new towel on the bedside table, lifted the bangs on Lu Yingying's forehead, and ruthlessly wiped away the dense beads of sweat on her temples.

Anesthetics are not a panacea. After all, it is a surgical procedure. Even if the effect of the medicine has not completely worn off, you would be lying if you say it doesn't hurt.

Classmate Tugou grinned: "Isn't it because I'm afraid everyone will worry? Besides, your ugly face is so scary. If I cry again, will you let me sleep well?"

As Yang Mo took charge of the Urban Property Fund Company and began to openly stand behind Ye Tao and confront You Yakun and Tian Guangyue, this guy's power became more and more powerful. Not to mention the Dongying faction, which he had never liked before, even He Yongyi, Li Jun, Qin Xin and others who were his direct subordinates were becoming more and more afraid of him.

Although this guy always appears to be amiable in front of others, he actually lives in seclusion and is a very deep-minded person. Therefore, when such a cunning guy gets gloomy, the pressure he brings to other people is definitely not a little bit.

Hearing this, Yang Mo glared at her and said, "You've been trying to smooth things over all day long... You're a special consultant for an investment company, and you were attacked in Dahua Industrial Park. Everyone who came here today will be held accountable!"

However, he gently lifted up Lu Yingying's head, then raised the pillow a little higher and placed it under her neck; then he squatted down, found the rocker of the bed, and rocked the upper half of the bed in circles.

In his previous life, whether he was working in the "external relations" office in the General Office, starting a business in his youth, or even working in foreign trade later, he had encountered many things that required physical contact. Therefore, as he was very experienced in this area, he naturally knew that the most uncomfortable thing about a fracture injury like this was that you could only lie flat on the bed.

Tugou looked curiously at the bed he was lying on that could actually rock, and pouted: "I don't want to explain to a degenerate guy like you. You just sit in the office and talk all day long. You don't understand the difficulties of our people at all... What do you mean everyone can't escape responsibility? As long as you deal with the grassroots people for one day, this kind of accident is unavoidable!"

As she spoke, Lu Yingying blinked her eyes: "I just saw Director Zheng's expression was a little stiff, and he seemed a little absent-minded... Are you planning to make a fuss and embarrass him?"

Yang Mo sneered: "What do you mean by making a mountain out of a molehill? I am just standing on the side of Dahua Company and asking them to act in accordance with the rules and regulations!"

As he spoke, he poured a glass of water from the thermos according to his experience from his previous life, took out a cotton swab, dipped it in the water, and then moistened his lips which had already lost all color; at the same time, he briefly recounted what he had asked Zheng Guohui to do.

At first, Tugou felt uncomfortable because of the tingling sensation on his lips, but after hearing what Yang Mo said, he suddenly fell silent.

Just when Yang Mo was feeling very uncomfortable with the sudden silence, he saw Tugou tilting his head and looking at him with a smile that he couldn't understand: "Yang Shidan, do you remember the Emperor Temple where we used to play hide-and-seek when we were kids?"

Emperor Temple?
Yang Mo was stunned, and after searching through his dusty and almost forgotten memories, he finally laughed: "Remember, we often hid inside to roast yams... Every time before roasting yams, we had to kowtow to Brother Guan Er before we dared to light a fire."

The Emperor's Temple was one of the few ancient buildings in their village that had survived from a certain period of time. Although it was razed to the ground after the millennium in his previous life, it was one of the scenes that he had vivid memories of as a child.

Classmate Tugou grinned: "I didn't expect that you still remembered us roasting yams in there. It was you who dragged me to kowtow to Lord Guan Er with you. You said that if we light a fire in the temple without permission, Lord Guan Er would blame us. "

"Yang Shidan, tell me... when we were kids... why was it that only that Emperor Temple was the only one that no one ever wanted to touch?"

One is the "Dou Wang Temple" which is used to worship Dou Jiande;
The other is the Emperor Temple dedicated to Guan Erye.

Although Yang Mo was surprised at why this girl would talk to him about such an insignificant matter, he thought that this girl was probably just having random thoughts after being hurt, so he could only smile and follow her lead: "Maybe it's because everyone admires and likes Brother Guan, so they don't have the heart to destroy his temple of incense."

Tugou nodded: "I think so too. When I was a kid, six out of ten operas and storytellings were about Lord Guan. Everyone loves and worships him so much that even the most jerk would be reluctant to ruin his reputation."

As he spoke, Tugou classmate turned sideways with difficulty, staring at Yang Mo with a pair of black and white eyes: "But, why do you think everyone worships Master Guan Er so much?"

Yang Mo was stunned by the question. He thought for a long time before scratching his head. "Maybe he admires his bravery and loyalty. After all, we are all familiar with the stories of the Peach Garden Oath, the Five Passes and the Thousand Miles Riding Alone."

Hearing this, Tugou laughed: "I thought so when I was a kid, too. You said that Guan Erye killed Hua Xiong with a cup of warm wine, and escorted my sister-in-law to open five cities and three passes alone. How majestic that was! At that time, I dreamed of having my own Red Hare, and holding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade majestically!"

After a slight pause, Lu Yingying sighed, "But as I get older, I've seen more people and things. Sometimes I think about it, but I don't think it's necessarily the case... In terms of bravery, Brother Guan is not the best in the world; in terms of loyalty, there are many heroes who are not inferior to him in that chaotic era. But everyone just likes to worship Master Guan and only built a temple for him... Tell me, why is that?"

Yang Mo spread his hands in embarrassment: "I really don't know about this."

He himself did not do much research and thinking on this area, and later generations were influenced by film, television and literary works. Instead, they appreciated Cao Mengde, who liked other people's wives, more. Therefore, he really couldn't give any answer right away.

Upon hearing this, Tugou was not disappointed, but just sighed softly: "I am just a stupid girl, and I didn't understand the reason at first. But after two years of work, I have seen more and more people and things, and I have a feeling... Maybe everyone respects and worships Guan Erye so much, not because of his extraordinary bravery, nor necessarily because of his unparalleled loyalty, but more because... he has kindness in his heart, he is proud of his superiors, but not humiliating his subordinates; he relies on his strength, but does not bully the weak!"

Be proud of those above you but don’t humiliate those below you; be strong but don’t bully the weak?

Yang Mo had known Tugou for several decades in his two lifetimes, so how could he not know what she meant?

Lu Yingying looked at him seriously: "Yang Shidan, I know that you are getting more and more powerful now, and the deep meaning behind many of your decisions is beyond the understanding of a stupid girl like me who has not even been to college;"

"But I just want to say that compared to you now, I actually like you more when you were still working in the drilling company;"

"At that time, you did not forget that you were an ordinary person from the countryside. You would rather risk being punished by the company and spare no effort to send your fellow villagers who were thousands of meters away in the rain back to their hometown;"

"At that time, you were also full of pride. Even though you were facing Vice President Feng and even President Wang, who were much higher in rank than you, you still had the guts to do it;"

"At that time, you were also proud of your superiors but not humiliating your subordinates. When faced with the chickens that people sent you from thousands of miles away, you gave them back, but it was not a kind of alms-giving return. Instead, you gave them your own return gift with the most sincere and equal attitude... You obviously couldn't drink, but you didn't even put on the airs of a section-level cadre. Instead, you carried boxes of wine and drank with them as a junior afterwards.

"You were really good at that time, really good!"

"But now, why do you actually start bullying the weak?"

There was no anger in Tugou's tone, only confusion and disappointment. "Indeed, Liu Laogen beat me up, even though he is from Linyi County, and even though we should call him uncle based on age. But beating someone up is wrong, and he should be arrested and sentenced... I am not a pushover, I even hope he spends ten or eight years in prison."

"But what about the other people present?"

"Yes, they came here to block the door and make trouble today,"

"It's despicable that they breached the contract. They deserve it if the vegetables they grow can't be sold!"

"But the problem is... if they breach the contract, there are market mechanisms to punish them, but they just blocked the door and acted like a spoiled child. They never took action from beginning to end, and they didn't even say a few words of abuse. You suddenly let people accuse them of a lot of unfounded crimes and instruct them to punish them severely... Isn't this a bit too much of a bully?"

At this point, Lv Yingying smoothed her wet hair and said, "Yang Shidan, we are all from the countryside. We should know very well how precious the word fairness is to the grassroots people."

"I don't mean to preach to you. With your current status and position, I am not qualified to preach to you. "

"I just want to remind you, don't forget that you are also a farmer's son... We can not be partial to each other and do the trick of one person's success brings prosperity to the whole family; but we should not implicate the innocent and use the power in our hands to punish the whole family. We should give those fellow villagers a minimum of dignity and fairness, right?"

It seemed that the effect of the anesthetic had completely faded at this time, and Lu Yingying's face became paler and paler: "Yang Shidan, you have told me many stories about dragon slayers who eventually became evil dragons... I don't want you to become the protagonist of those stories."

Yang Mo was silent for a while after hearing this, but he finally sighed softly and took a towel to wipe the beads of sweat off her forehead: "Well, although I still think that no snowflake is innocent during an avalanche, and sometimes those accomplices who encourage and instigate behind the scenes are more hateful than the principal offender... but since you said so, then it's as you wish."

As he spoke, Yang Mo gently untied her long hair, so that her neck would not feel so uncomfortable. "I'll call Director Zheng later. If the villagers who came to block the door together don't have any other criminal records, just give them a verbal warning and let them go."

Lu Yingying stared blankly at the man in front of her whose movements were gentle and almost soft. The words "as you wish" once again brought back certain memories.

Turning his head away as if to evade, Tugou said in a muffled voice: "Also, I know that although you are also from Linyi County, you actually have never liked the people from this area;"

"I don't know what you are going to do with Mayor You, but I still say the same thing... We are from the countryside. No matter how you scheme, please don't make us innocent people suffer. We don't understand the twists and turns between you leaders. We ordinary people just want to live a good life. We can't just treat them as toilet paper that can be thrown away after use."

innocent?

But not all of them are innocent~
Yang Mo smiled and was about to say something.

Knock knock~
The door of the ward was pushed open a little, and Zhuo Junyue poked her head in, whispering, "Boss Yang, County Magistrate Ma and his team's car have already entered the city. I'd like to ask... should we ask them to come to the hospital to visit Manager Lu first, or should we arrange a meeting directly?"

Oh?
50 kilometers away, and we’re already there?

It's fast enough!

Glancing at the pale face covered in sweat on the bed, Yang Mo said without hesitation: "Please ask County Mayor Ma to go directly to the Urban Property Fund Company. Manager Lu just finished an operation and needs to stay quiet."

It was clear that Ma Qingyuan's main purpose of coming here this time was not to see Lu Yingying, so there was no need to let Tugou suffer so much.

After saying that, Yang Mo took a towel and wiped the sweat off Lu Yingying's forehead. Then he stood up and said, "Please invite the nurse in. Tell her that the anesthetic effect of Manager Lu has worn off. His arms and waist are no longer able to move. In the next three days, I'd like to trouble them to take care of him 24 hours a day... Just prescribe painkillers and acupuncture. Put the fees in my account. Don't save money."

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Junyue looked at Tugou on the bed with some envy, then quickly retracted her gaze: "Okay, Mr. Yang."
