Xiangyang Town. Tian Yuming smelled of alcohol and was lying on the sofa in the office, drowsy.

At noon, Tian Yuming led a group of township cadres to have a big meal in the restaurant of the town guest house. The eight people ate eight cold dishes, eleven hot dishes, plus a soup, a total of twenty dishes, including big fish and meat.

Mainly, it definitely exceeded the standard.

In future generations, if a civil servant dares to drink at noon on a working day, it is an act seeking death. If he is caught by the disciplinary inspection department, he will be notified of criticism and may be dismissed and investigated.

However, before the ban on alcohol for public officials was implemented, it was normal to go out to a restaurant to drink alcohol, eat meat, and have a full meal at noon. Many people drank at noon and drank at night, and sometimes they could catch up with several events during one meal.

Not only public officials, but also teachers, doctors and other public institutions personnel can also drink at noon. It is not uncommon for teachers to stand on the podium smelling of alcohol; doctors come to the operating table drunk,

Euphemistically speaking, drinking alcohol is to disinfect yourself first.

In the late 1980s, supplies were relatively scarce, and people had little money in their stomachs. It was normal to have a good meal with public funds.

After drinking and eating, people are always more likely to feel sleepy. This is the case for Tian Yuming. When he returned to the office, he stopped working and went directly to the sofa to take a nap.

Sleep in in the morning, have a big meal at noon, lie down in the afternoon, and have another meal in the evening. What a happy life it is!

Just when Tian Yuming was about to fall asleep, a knock on the door suddenly rang. Tian Yuming frowned fiercely, wondering who was disturbing me at this time. He sat up from the sofa impatiently and said: "Come in.

!”

The person who walked in was Lao Zhang from the office. Lao Zhang still had a few invoices in his hand.

"Leader, I'm back." Lao Zhang walked up to Tian Yuming with a grimace and said, "If the matter is not completed, the electric furnace factory will not reimburse you!"

"No reimbursement? Wasn't it reimbursed the first two times? Why this time?" Tian Yuming snorted coldly, with a very dissatisfied expression.

Office Lao Zhang hesitated for a moment and then said: "Maybe the amount we reimbursed this time is indeed a bit large. The sum of the previous two times was not as large as this time."

I saw a surge of anger on Tian Yuming's face, and then said: "Humph, I turned against him! I dare not pay the invoice I asked you to send!"

"Boss, the electric furnace factory didn't say no reimbursement. Ma Zhongyi told me that their factory director Li Weidong is not here right now, so he didn't dare to sign such a big number. He asked me to wait for Li Weidong to come back and then go there again.

"The old man opened his mouth and said.

"Then when will Li Weidong come back?" Tian Yuming asked.

"Ma Zhongyi told me that Li Weidong went to Yangcheng to participate in the Canton Fair. I don't know exactly when he will come back." Lao Zhang immediately replied.

Tian Yuming's face became even more angry: "This Li Weidong thinks I'm a fool! A big-ass township enterprise still participates in the Canton Fair! Does he really think that I am uneducated and don't know what the Canton Fair is?"

Who can participate in the Canton Fair, which one is not a large state-owned factory! He is a township enterprise and goes to the Canton Fair, which makes him laugh out loud! I think he just doesn’t want to reimburse me these invoices, so he deliberately found an excuse to avoid us!"

Lao Zhang hesitated for a moment and then said, "Leader, I know Ma Zhongyi to some extent. He is quite honest. I see that he swears so confidently that it doesn't look like he is lying. Maybe that Li Weidong really went to the Canton Fair."

?”

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Tian Yuming waved his hand and continued: "Even if he really went to the Canton Fair, it was written in the newspaper last week that the Canton Fair ended successfully. It has been a week, how could he, Li Weidong,

Not back yet? He just doesn’t want to pay, so he’s making up lies and avoiding you!”

"Leader, what should I do? If Li Weidong avoids me on purpose, it's really hard for me to find him. I can't go to the electric furnace factory door and block him early every morning!" Lao Zhang said with aggrieved look.

"You don't have to go to so much trouble." Tian Yuming snorted coldly and continued, "Since this Li Weidong is so disrespectful and has to toast him without eating and being fined with wine, then I will reward him with a glass of fine wine!

I'll call the town power supply station soon and ask them to stop the power supply at the electric furnace plant and give him some color. You see, in less than three days, Li Weidong will have to come to beg me!"

People like Tian Yuming spend a lot of money eating and drinking with so much fish, meat, wine and food every day. For example, the twenty dishes at noon, plus a few bottles of liquor, cost more than one hundred yuan.

, which is equivalent to one month’s salary of a state-owned enterprise worker.

Of course Tian Yuming will not pay for a big meal in a restaurant, so he needs to solve the problem of food money.

The first solution is of course to eat and drink with public funds. But there are two prerequisites for eating and drinking with public funds. The first is that there needs to be a reason for eating and drinking with public funds.

For example, official entertainment such as welcoming leaders and entertaining guests is a good reason. When a guest comes, almost everyone in the town will come to accompany him, a few banquet tables will be set up, and everyone will take this opportunity to have a big meal.

If you just go to eat without a reason, what should you write on the invoice? You can’t just write that you are greedy and go to a restaurant to satisfy your craving!

Moreover, the expenditure of public funds must be verified by the audit department. If you eat and drink without a valid reason, you will not pass the audit.

The second prerequisite for eating and drinking with public funds is that there must be money in the financial account. If there is no money, no matter how good the excuse is, there is no way to eat and drink with public funds.

However, this premise is not necessary, because if you really have no money, you can still make a free note.

If you go out with a white note, eat and drink for free, at worst, you won't pay back the money in the end. You will act like a rogue and leave the money owed by the note to the next person. The next person will act like a rogue again and continue not to pay back the money. Anyway, the people do not agree with the officials.

Fight, ordinary people who own restaurants have nothing to do with the government.

The closer you are to the grassroots level, the more cases of IOUs are made. There are not a few restaurants that have been overtaken by towns or villages.

The guest house in Xiangyang Town is contracted out, and the owner is a relative of Tian Yuming. Naturally, Tian Yuming cannot give a free note to his relatives. However, Xiangyang Town has no money financially and cannot support Tian Yuming and the others to eat and drink with public funds.

So Tian Yuming used a very common method to ask companies in the town to reimburse the cost of meals.

Prior to this, the electric furnace factory also often reimbursed the town for food and drink expenses, which was said to be fulfilling the responsibilities and obligations of the enterprise.

However, at that time, the electric furnace factory was an industry owned by Xiangyang Town. It was a real collective enterprise and was managed by Xiangyang Town. It was natural for the town to reimburse meal expenses.

Later, the electric furnace factory was burned down, and Li Weidong rebuilt the electric furnace factory. The electric furnace factory became a private enterprise and was only nominally affiliated to Xiangyang Town.

But Tian Yuming did not let the electric furnace factory go because of this. He would send several invoices to the electric furnace factory every now and then to ask the electric furnace factory to reimburse the meal expenses.

At that time, the reason why Tian Yuming agreed to Li Weidong's reconstruction of the electric furnace factory was because he could assume "due responsibilities and obligations" after the electric furnace plant was rebuilt.

This kind of behavior of seeking reimbursement from enterprises is not new. Every year, a batch of such flies are swatted away in the anti-corruption work.

So Li Weidong was not surprised. As long as the town sent the invoice, he would be reimbursed directly. Anyway, Li Weidong was not short of the few hundred yuan, so he was sending the kid away.

There is no way around this. After all, the electric furnace factory is based in Xiangyang Town, and Li Weidong doesn't have to compete with local snakes. There is no need to kill a thousand enemies and suffer eight hundred losses for something that can be solved with a small amount of money.

However, Tian Yuming did not know how to restrain himself. Instead, because he tasted the benefits, he began to work harder and spent more and more on food and drink.

Since the electric stove factory is reimbursing me, I have to eat and drink well. I order all the good dishes I was reluctant to order before, and drink all the good wine I was reluctant to drink before. It’s best to bring a few more.

The food is packed and taken home to satisfy the cravings of my wife and children.

As a result, the invoice sent to the electric furnace factory this time was twice as much as before.

But Li Weidong went to the Canton Fair. After the Canton Fair, he went to Hong Kong Island and was not in the electric furnace factory. The deputy director Ma Zhongyi did not have financial power to begin with. He had to listen to Li Weidong in everything, so this time the invoice was not

Can be reimbursed.

Ma Zhongyi is also an honest person and directly told Lao Zhang about Li Weidong's participation in the Canton Fair. As a result, when it came to Tian Yuming's place, it became that Li Weidong did not want to reimburse and made excuses to avoid Lao Zhang, and it was a brainless excuse to attend the Canton Fair.

In Tian Yuming's view, Li Weidong is treating himself like a monkey, so he must be severely punished!

So Tian Yuming called the town power supply station and cut off the power to the electric furnace plant.

At the same time, Su Xian came to Liu Tong's office again.

"Leader, the Department of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation has sent over the data from the Canton Fair. The amount of foreign exchange earned by Xiangyang Town Electric Furnace Factory from exports is US$12.55 million!"

"Sure enough, it has increased by more than two million!" Liu Tong looked happy, and then asked: "By the way, how many orders have the transportation company's clothing factory signed? Before the Canton Fair, their new factory director patted his chest and came to me

Promise to get five million US dollars. I guess, even if five million US dollars is a bit difficult, four million US dollars should be enough, right?"

"Leader, according to the data given to our bureau by the Department of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, there are no transportation companies and garment factories." Su Xian then added: "What is not on the list means companies that have not received orders."

Liu Tong's expression suddenly turned cold, and there was a stern look in his eyes.

Su Xian felt that the leader was angry, so he didn't dare to speak anymore. It was not good to say too much or too little at this time. If he didn't say a word well, he would offend the leader, so shutting up was the best choice.

However, Liu Tong immediately calmed down and said: "Now that the data from the electric furnace factory has come out, we will no longer hide it. I will cancel today's schedule, and you should not arrange other things.

Now come with me to the electric furnace factory!"

Su Xian nodded and said, "Boss, do you need to call a few reporters?"

"I'll ask the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee to send someone there!" Liu Tong said.

"Then shall I inform Dongcheng District?" Su Xian asked next.

"We are here to inspect the enterprise. It is best to keep everything simple. If we mobilize a large number of people, it will put a huge burden on the grassroots! It will also affect the normal work of the grassroots. So there is no need to call so many people."

After all, Liu Tong was a practical official, and he was not interested in ostentation.
