All he does is eat and drink

After returning to the county government, Lin Xiao led You Zhengbo and Hu Qingqing directly into the inner room.

After hearing the details and watching the video, Gong Lei slammed his fist on the table, stood up, and called Deputy County Head Tang Songying to his office.

"County Chief Tang, the incident at Fengshan Elementary School's cafeteria is appalling. They are committing crimes and evil deeds. This must be dealt with seriously. If it is not handled properly, where will our conscience lie? As the deputy county chief in charge, you must take responsibility for this matter."

Tang Songying had originally planned to have a few drinks after get off work, but Gong Lei had called him over and given him a long lecture, leaving him quite depressed. After watching the video, he couldn't sit still any longer.

"County Chief Gong, I take responsibility for what happened. I failed to supervise properly, and I will implement rectification as soon as possible and follow up with supervision."

Gong Lei was still angry and said with a stern face, "County Chief Tang, now is not the time to assign blame. We've only discovered the problem at Fengshan Elementary School. What about other schools? Could there be similar issues? And what is the Education Bureau doing? And what is Fu Xiaocong doing?"

Tang Songying certainly understood the meaning behind those words. To put it bluntly, the next step was to see how he performed, otherwise he might even be held accountable for his own actions.

As the deputy county head in charge, he couldn't possibly oversee every detail, but given the circumstances, if the leadership wanted to be held accountable, he would have no choice but to accept it, especially since it only involved one school at the moment.

"County Chief Gong, I am also very angry. These people are simply audacious. My child eats at school. If... just thinking about it is terrifying."

They are incredibly audacious, utterly lawless, and unworthy of being parents. The Education Bureau, the Market Supervision Bureau, and the school all bear responsibility. I suggest that the Discipline Inspection Commission intervene and investigate. Whoever is responsible, anyone found to have committed wrongdoing must be dealt with decisively.

Tang Songying expressed his opinion with righteous indignation, demonstrating his determination and attitude.

Gong Lei nodded and said, "I will communicate with Secretary Huang about this matter. You can go ahead and investigate. No matter who it is, investigate thoroughly. Education and health are under your jurisdiction, and the entire team really needs to be reorganized."

"Yes, County Head, I'll make the arrangements right away."

The county head and deputy county head are in a superior-subordinate relationship, and Tang Songying is not even a member of the county party committee standing committee, so he can only accept Gong Lei's anger unconditionally.

After Tang Songying left, Lin Xiao shared his thoughts, preparing to launch a special inspection of the school's unauthorized paid tutoring courses during the summer vacation and the hygiene issues in the cafeteria.

Although the municipal and county education bureaus have clearly stipulated that it is strictly forbidden to charge fees for tutoring in any form during the summer vacation, the schools have turned a deaf ear. This situation is not only due to the schools' own problems, but the supervising units also bear responsibility!

Perhaps this is even a tacitly approved act.

"County Chief, I feel that some units and individuals are outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant of the policies and requirements of their superiors, with a serious lack of execution and an extremely weak sense of responsibility. Now that this incident has happened at Fengshan Elementary School, could we take this opportunity to make an example of them, thoroughly rectify the situation, and sound the alarm for all cadres in the county?"

Gong Lei nodded and said, "Xiao Lin, your suggestion is very good. Indeed, sometimes I also feel that it is difficult to move the work forward. It's like a pile of mud that can't be plastered on a wall. The same goes for the business environment you mentioned before. Ultimately, it comes down to insufficient execution and problems with work style. There are quite a few cadres..."

At that moment, Lin Xiao's phone rang, indicating that it was Fu Xiaocong from the county education bureau calling.

Gong Lei said with a stern face, "Answer the call and see what he has to say."

Lin Xiao immediately answered the phone: "Director Fu, hello."

"Hello, Director Lin, I was wondering if you're free tonight? I'd like to invite you to dinner. Tomorrow's the weekend, so we can have some drinks and relax, and maybe we can talk about the Fengshan Elementary School cafeteria."

During the phone call, Fu Xiaocong maintained a humble attitude and spoke very sincerely.

Upon learning that the Fengshan Elementary School cafeteria was in a bad state, Fu Xiaocong immediately became vigilant and prepared to take action to nip the problem in the bud. The most crucial aspect of this was how to calm Lin Xiao down.

Lin Xiao, with the phone on speakerphone, said calmly, "Director Fu, I think we should resolve this issue first. We can discuss the dinner and drinks later."

"Director Lin, we need to take care of business, but we also need to have a meal. I've already made a reservation at Jinxing Restaurant. I'll be waiting for you there."

"Fu Xiaocong, don't you know what time it is? All you care about is eating and drinking. Fengshan Elementary School has such serious hygiene problems in its cafeteria, and you still have the mood to eat and drink? I think you don't want to be the director anymore, do you?"

Gong Lei, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't hold back and exploded.

Fu Xiaocong on the other end was stunned. He never expected to hear County Magistrate Gong Lei's voice on the phone.

It seems the problem has become much more serious.

Fu Xiaocong's forehead instantly broke out in a sweat: "County Chief, did you hear the explanation...?"

"Explain? What else do you want to explain? Explaining is just covering up. I'm only giving you two days. If the problems at Fengshan Elementary School aren't effectively resolved, I'll dismiss you from your post and subject you to an investigation."

This was the first time Lin Xiao had seen Gong Lei so angry in a long time.

"That's settled, Director Fu."

After saying that, Lin Xiao hung up the phone.

Gong Lei added, "Let the Education Bureau investigate its own problems. You should continue to conduct a comprehensive and in-depth investigation according to your own ideas, clarify the issues, and deal with those who need to be dealt with."

Clearly, Gong Lei had already decided on Fu Xiaocong in his mind.

After leaving the inner room, Lin Xiao convened a meeting with all the staff of the inspection office to deploy a special inspection of the county's education system, focusing on issues such as canteen hygiene and illegal organization of paid tutoring.

"The situation at Fengshan Primary School is relatively clear; this is a typical case of defying regulations. Given that we still need to investigate whether other schools have similar problems, we will not disclose the details for now. Therefore, I hope everyone can try to visit all the schools in the county within a week to obtain firsthand information as soon as possible. Regarding the canteen hygiene issue, focus on aspects such as contracting and bidding, material supply, and quality inspection."

Comrades, the county government has designated this special inspection campaign as the first battle to improve the execution and work style of the entire county's cadre team, and we must resolutely fight and win it. This time, quite a few people may be involved, so I hope everyone is mentally prepared…”

After hearing Lin Xiao's words, some people became extremely excited, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

Of course, everyone knew that "Director Lin" was going to make an example of someone again. Considering the situation of the county public security bureau not long ago, many people in the county bureau probably felt their scalps tingle at the mention of the county government's inspection office.

Carrying out a special inspection and rectification campaign can be seen as a natural step, and Lin Xiao's other purpose was to establish the authority of the county government's inspection office.

The inspection office represents the county government in supervising and inspecting whether various units within the county strictly implement the county government's major decisions and leadership instructions. Without authority, it is merely a figurehead.

Hu Qingqing was particularly excited, her eyes shining.

"Alright, thank you for your hard work these past few days."

After saying that, Lin Xiao announced the meeting was adjourned!
