182: Chapter 182 Unite and Work Together

Several urban management officers were stunned!

The onlookers were stunned!!!

What was going on!

That was the director of the County Urban Management Bureau. Why were they acting like mice seeing a cat, apologizing and bowing before this young man?

"Secretary Qin, I'm sorry..."

Qin Chuan waved to interrupt Director Hong Guofu's words and pointed at the Urban Management Squad Leader. "You, come here!"

The squad leader was trembling, his face turning slightly pale.

He now fully knew Qin Chuan's identity; the man was the newly appointed County Party Secretary.

"Apologize to the old man and compensate him for his losses!"

The squad leader apologized immediately. "Sir, I'm sorry. Our approach just now was too aggressive. Here is two—no, five hundred yuan as compensation for your losses."

The old man stood there in a daze.

He never expected such a reversal; the high-and-mighty urban management leader was actually apologizing to him and even paying for his losses.

Qin Chuan said, "Sir, we haven't done our job well enough and caused you to suffer. Please take this money."

The old man finally snapped out of it. Taking the five hundred yuan, tears streamed down his face. In his seventy-plus years of life, this was the first time he had met such a good official.

"Leader, let me kowtow to you. Thank you, thank you..."

Qin Chuan hurriedly supported him, preventing him from kneeling, and offered some comforting words.

Then, with a solemn expression, he said loudly, "Director Hong, you must handle today's matter strictly and hold the relevant personnel accountable."

"Yes, yes, we will definitely hold them strictly accountable!"

Qin Chuan continued, "I am setting a rule here. Within Wanshun County, street vendors are allowed to set up stalls by the roadside. As long as they do not obstruct pedestrians or vehicles, you are not to interfere."

"Yes, yes," Director Hong Guofu nodded.

The surrounding people were stunned. This leader had such presence!

Because he had just taken office and was so young, ninety-nine percent of the people didn't recognize Qin Chuan, but some recognized Director Hong Guofu.

"Who is this young man? He looks like a big leader!"

"Yeah, even Director Hong is bowing and scraping before him. He might be a county leader!"

"This is the newly appointed County Party Secretary!"

What? He's actually the new County Party Secretary!

After Qin Chuan gave his instructions, he turned to the onlookers and said loudly, "That's right, I am the newly appointed County Party Secretary!"

"Here, I publicly make a promise: Wanshun County allows roadside stalls. As long as they do not affect pedestrians and vehicles, the Urban Management Bureau shall not interfere."

"Everyone, let's supervise the work of the Urban Management Bureau together. If you encounter violent law enforcement again, anyone can come directly to me. Furthermore, the Urban Management Bureau must improve its service awareness and truly implement 'serving the people'..."

This impromptu speech won rounds of warm applause.

Many people cheered!

Everyone took an immediate liking to such a County Party Secretary!

Seeing that the crowd was growing and starting to affect traffic, Qin Chuan waved to everyone and jogged away. He returned to Wanshun Hotel, changed his clothes, had breakfast, and prepared for work.

Today was his first official day of work after taking office.

Just as he arrived at the entrance of the Office Building, he found that Director Hu Bing was already waiting there early.

"Good morning, Secretary."

Qin Chuan nodded slightly. His impression of Director Hu Bing had improved quite a bit; the man had a good attitude and was meticulous. Knowing it was his first official day, he had specifically waited here.

"Secretary, this is your office."

At the easternmost end of the Office Building was a large office. The renovation was relatively new, and it was cleaned spotlessly and kept tidy. Some green plants had also been specifically selected and placed in the office.

"Secretary, if there is anything you are dissatisfied with, please let me know, and we will rectify it immediately."

After a brief look around, Qin Chuan nodded and said, "This will do. Go about your business; I will call you if I need anything."

"Alright."

Director Hu Bing withdrew and gently pulled the office door ajar.

Sitting in the large, comfortable office chair, Qin Chuan saw that some items had already been placed on the large desk. Needless to ask, Director Hu Bing must have put them there.

He flipped through them briefly; they were materials and data on Wanshun County's economic development over the past two years. This Director Hu Bing had certainly put in some effort.

Qin Chuan picked up the materials and began to look through them.

After about ten minutes, there was a knock at the door.

Qin Chuan said clearly, "Come in!"

Somewhat surprisingly, the person who pushed the door open and entered was County Mayor Sheng Huaian.

The County Mayor coming over proactively, and being the first one at that, sent a strong signal that he truly wanted to unite with him.

Qin Chuan stood up to greet him warmly. "Mayor Huaian is here. Please, have a seat. What would you like to drink?"

He personally brewed two cups of tea, one for each. County Mayor Sheng Huaian looked flattered and took the cup with both hands.

The two sat down on the sofa and began chatting and laughing.

County Mayor Sheng Huaian introduced many aspects of Wanshun County to Qin Chuan, including economic construction, social conditions, and so on.

During their conversation, County Mayor Sheng Huaian mentioned several times that Wanshun County was not as stable as it appeared on the surface. Undercurrents were surging, and everyone needed to be united.

He expressed his stance once again, "Secretary, I will certainly work under your leadership and unite around you to bring Wanshun County back onto the right track."

The so-called undercurrents referred to Master Wang Sen's group, who had been influencing Wanshun County.

Qin Chuan proactively extended his right hand and said very sincerely, "Mayor Huaian, then let us unite and work together!"

"Yes, unite and work together!"

County Mayor Sheng Huaian reached out with both hands and firmly shook Qin Chuan's hand.

After a few more words, County Mayor Sheng Huaian rose to take his leave. He understood perfectly that an alliance had been formed; the County Party Secretary and the County Mayor were now closely united.

It was very rare for a County Mayor and a County Party Secretary to be so closely united.

After watching County Mayor Sheng Huaian leave, Qin Chuan let out a long sigh of relief. It was a bit surprising and a pleasant surprise that the top two leaders could unite like this.

For the rest of the day, people were basically coming in to report on their work.

Since it was the first day, those coming to report were mostly at the county leadership level. Leaders of bureaus and townships would probably start coming tomorrow. Through these interactions, Qin Chuan formed different impressions of each individual.

Since his physical fitness improved and broke through human limits, Qin Chuan had become very confident in his intuition. After just one interaction with anyone, he could basically sense what kind of person they were.

With his keen intuition, Qin Chuan could sense who wanted to align themselves with him, who was saying one thing while doing another, who was just going through the motions, and so on.

Around four in the afternoon, Deputy Party Secretary Liu Yu arrived.

He was the last county leader to visit.

Although this man didn't give off a good vibe, Qin Chuan's face didn't show it at all, still appearing very warm. "Comrade Deputy Party Secretary Liu Yu is here. Please, have a seat."

Deputy Party Secretary Liu Yu didn't stand on ceremony and sat down heavily on the sofa.
