District 9

The director was silent for a moment on the phone and said in a nonchalant tone: "Qin Yu, don't play tricks on me. Whether the pharmaceutical factory will be held accountable or not is not a matter of your words? Let me tell you. , you can’t detain these people, this is what the Government Affairs Department means.”

"Director Xin, I can speak to the pharmaceutical factory, but it's not me who makes the decision!" Qin Yu's attitude was very low, and his words were smooth as he replied: "If they just beat people, it doesn't matter, I don't I can fully understand the meaning of the higher-ups. But the problem is that they smashed up the scientific research room, damaged the equipment, and the person who made the decision quits. What do you think I can do? I am in a dilemma, leader!"

Director Xin was silent.

"If you like this, I'll call the pharmaceutical factory and ask about the situation. I will release it as soon as possible. I will definitely not cause trouble to the department." Qin Yu added again with a very soft attitude.

"Three to four hundred people have gathered outside the district. They want to protest. It's up to you." Director Xin said this and hung up the phone.

"All the good guys are fucking fooled by you." Qin Yu cursed as he looked at the hung up cell phone and walked towards the hotel restaurant with a tired look on his face.

…

First floor, inside the restaurant.

Gu Yan drank the milk, looked up at Qin Yu and asked, "What's wrong with Songjiang? Have you been a little out of shape these past two days?"

"It's so annoying." Qin Yu sighed, lowered his head and took a sandwich and explained: "At first, I thought Lao Li's matter was just the Han family's revenge on us and asked them to withdraw their shares from the pharmaceutical factory, but Unexpectedly, it was quite complicated. They contacted a big family outside the district and planned to use the expansion of Xinyuan District to help a chief councilor come up. Yesterday, there was some conflict in Xile Palace. My brother Zhu Wei took the family member A stupid dog was caught, and his family went to the pharmaceutical factory to smash it up, and then asked Coco to impound him. Now the police station is putting pressure on me to let him go."

"How big of a family are they? After smashing the pharmaceutical factory, the police station not only failed to hold people responsible, but also ordered them to be released immediately. What does this mean?" Fu Xiaohao asked sensitively: "Is the police station deliberately looking for trouble with us? ah?"

"This is really not the case." Qin Yu explained while biting his sandwich: "I inquired specifically about it yesterday. This family is very powerful outside the district. I have heard of it before."

"Which one?" asked the consultant.

"Dragon City Wang Family."

"I've heard of them too," Gu Yan nodded: "But I don't know much about them. I only heard that they are very influential in your area."

"Yes." Qin Yu took up the conversation and explained to everyone in detail: "The Wang family was developed in Longcheng, and hundreds of living villages within a radius of four to five hundred kilometers have some relationship with them. They have a strong sense of family and a tough style of doing things. I knew them before in Sankanzi, and 60 to 70 percent of the migrant work we did there was from their family."

"Hundreds of living villages are related to them. How about bragging? The Yu family has been in Jiangzhou for so many years, and they haven't said they have gathered so many living villages!" Cha Meng added with some disbelief: "They If you really have this ability, how about competing for the title of Chief Councilor? How great would it be to become the mayor directly?"

"No, no." Qin Yu waved his hand and responded: "First of all, the development directions of the Wang family and the Yu family are completely different. The Yu family specializes in running a big industry, and then devotes all its energy to making it bigger and stronger. Other small industries They all serve this big industry. But the Wang family is different. They are composed of countless small industries gathered together to support the operation of this big family. Chameng, let me ask you, the most basic heating problem in Jiangzhou, water conservancy How to solve the problem and power supply problem?"

Cha Meng thought for a while and returned: "The big families pay the maintenance association, and then they build and manage it. Of course, if the people want to use it, they will also pay a certain amount to the maintenance association."

"There are no maintenance committees around Dragon City. All these tasks are done by the Wang family." Qin Yu frowned and explained: "For example, there is no heating problem outside the area. There is no way to achieve unified heating outside the area. Every household can only buy coal mixed with wood. Burning for heating. The Wang family operates coal mines, but they don’t sell it themselves. They only find the best people in each living village and distribute the coal directly to them. If you have money, you pay first. If you don’t have money, I will give it to you on credit and you sell it. Give it to me after it is finished, and the price is not high, and the profit is very thin, ensuring that people in the Life Village can afford it. In this way, the heating problem is solved, and he also makes money, and the Life Village is the best at talking about it. One of them is making profits with nothing, so how can he not side with the Wang family?"

"How much money can you make just by selling some coal?!"

"I won't tell you. His family not only runs a business, but also expands the scale of the business by using this small profit to win over the village managers to make money together after the business started." Qin Yu spoke in detail. He Chameng narrated: "In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, just one of them looks like a small business, but what about four plus one? What about adding a monopoly? Then what you make is not money, but control of the people. Understand ?"

After Cha Meng heard this, he suddenly realized.

"This is accumulation," Gu Yan added while sipping his drink: "It doesn't happen overnight."

"Yes!" Qin Yu nodded: "There are many people like the Wang family outside the area, but they are the ones doing the biggest thing near Songjiang. His family was the first to enter Longcheng Living Village after the Era, and they also had some capital before the Era. , the population is very prosperous. Coupled with the marriage and the relationship that after the people have spent their money, they still have to make money in their family's property, then one can imagine their energy around Dragon City."

"But I still don't understand, what is the city's intention to win over such a big family?" Fu Xiaohao asked doubtfully, "Is it easier to manage the people?"

"That's for sure." Qin Yu nodded and replied: "More than a million people have moved into the new area. Their living habits and behavior are completely opposite to those of the people who have lived in the area for more than 20 years. Once they follow the same trend, When conflicts arise between existing residents and the government, how will the Government Affairs Department resolve them? Who do they listen to? It must be the leading big family, who can speak more easily. Secondly, the various policies of the city For implementation and taxation implementation, the people may not necessarily foot the bill, and who is the most suitable person to do this kind of work?”

"If you can't control 1.5 million people directly, then you can control it at different levels." Cha Meng understood what Qin Yu meant: "If the big family is obedient, the people below will also be obedient."

"Yes." Qin Yu nodded.

"There is another question, you don't understand." Gu Yan suddenly said to Qin Yu.

"What?" Qin Yu was stunned.

"One and a half million people represent one and a half million votes." Gu Yan came from a political family. He looked at the problem from a different perspective, so he said to the point: "Just like Xiao Yu said, this new The Yuan District is different from other districts. When they first come in, the people will be very united. Coupled with various clan relationships and dependency relationships, they are cohesive. If anyone wins control of these families, then in the future The election for the Director of Government Affairs, the election for the Speaker of the City Council, the election for the mayor... So if these 1.5 million votes can all be cast in one place... what will be the effect?"

When Qin Yu heard this, he instantly realized why the Han family wanted to contact such a big family, and also understood why the Government Affairs Office was so conniving with a fool like Wang Tiannan.
