Chapter 290: Only with power can you punish evil.
Demon Dragon Town, Bra City.
Chu Yang was furious when he saw the fallen concrete towers and the greasy Mao Juntong. However, he thought about the rescue work to come and the overall situation was the most important thing. He suppressed his anger and said, "Director Mao, please tell me what the situation is and why the power supply cannot be restored in 48 hours."
Mao Juntong replied helplessly: "Director Chu, you should have seen that our area was severely affected. Most of the line towers were uprooted by the typhoon. Repairs are time-consuming and laborious. We don't have enough manpower. Can I apply for support?"
Chu Yang replied indifferently: "Now that the typhoon has passed, there are dangers everywhere. Others are repairing their buildings now. How can I get anyone to give you money?"
Director Mao showed an embarrassed expression: "Director Chu, you can see that there is really nothing we can do about this. I have also sent people to repair it day and night, but it is definitely not enough to complete the task. This is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster. Don't be too harsh."
Chu Yang couldn't help it. "Is it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? Director Mao, you know it very well, right? Come here, can you explain to me why there are no problems with the cement poles in other towns, but all the cement poles here have problems? Are your cement poles fake? Hmm?"
Mao Juntong's face flashed with a trace of panic when he heard Chu Yang's words, but he quickly suppressed it. He still answered confidently: "It's because we are downwind, so the wind is stronger."
Damn it, he is still quibbling. Chu Yang sneered, "Really, Director Mao, is that true? You are surrounded by mountains, so the wind should be smaller. I went to several towns and villages, and the crops and trees here are not damaged much. You are telling me that the wind is strong?"
Director Mao felt something was wrong and got a little nervous this time: "This, this, it could be a problem with the soil. The soil here is mainly sandy and loose. It's hard for Director Chu to explain these things clearly."
"Is it difficult to explain? I think it is easy to explain. Director Mao, can you tell me what is the required burial depth of a 12-meter concrete tower?" Chu Yang's tone began to strengthen, and he exuded a fascinating aura.
Really, if you don’t show your power, others will treat you as a sick cat!
When Director Mao heard this question, sweat instantly seeped out of his forehead and a certain panic appeared in his eyes. He looked at Sister Hua in panic: "This, this, Director Chu, I don't quite remember."
"Don't you remember? Mao Juntong, you are a director, but you don't even know such basic data. How can you be the director? I think you should step down and let others take over." Chu Yang really wanted to kick him into the ditch, this piece of trash.
"That's not it, Director Chu. Let me think about it. I think it should be 2 meters."
How could Mao Juntong not remember this? She just didn't dare to say it. She had something to hide.
Chu Yang walked to the front and pointed at the tower: "Since you know it is 2 meters, then please tell me why the 12-meter tower here is buried so deep. Is it 2 meters? I think 1.2 meters is not enough?"
Director Mao originally thought that Chu Yang was young, just a college student who could write a few articles, and he was lucky enough to become the office director, so he didn't pay much attention to him. Little did he know that Chu Yang discovered the trick as soon as he arrived.
"This, this... Is this a mistake? I don't know what's going on." Director Mao began to get scared, and the corners of his mouth trembled.
Chu Yang continued, "Don't you know? Then let me explain. It's because when you were renovating the rural power grid, you deliberately cut corners and embezzled public funds. You replaced the 15-meter cement poles with 12-meter ones. That's why the burial depth is not enough. So when the strong wind blows, how can it not fall down?"
After Chu Yang finished speaking, Director Mao's legs went weak and he fell into the ditch, covered in mud... He didn't care anymore and quickly got up again: "No, Director Chu, it's not like that, it's really not like that."
Chu Yang smiled cruelly: "Okay, that's not the case, right? Then I will report to Mr. Tian and have someone come over to investigate thoroughly and we will know if it is the case. I hope you can still speak properly by then."
Director Mao got scared now, and quickly came over to hold Chu Yang, almost in a pleading tone: "Director Chu, you can't report it. Let me be frank with you. When the rural power grid was renovated, we were the last township here, and the funds were insufficient at that time. I mentioned it to General Manager Liang many times, and he always told us to solve it ourselves. In the end, we really had no choice... We could only use materials... You know, I can't refute what General Manager Liang said. I'm just a small director and don't have much say."
Mr. Liang...it's this Mr. Liang again.
Good job.
How could Chu Yang not understand!
It's nothing but exploitation at every level. The provincial company allocated money to transform the rural power grid, and every director of a power supply station made a fortune. But even if others took advantage of the situation, they would not come up with such a shoddy product that could be used against them.
This Director Mao must not be clean, otherwise how could he have such a figure? Chu Yang had worked in a power supply station in his previous life, and he knew a little about the tricks. A five-kilometer line was reported as ten kilometers, and 30 out of 100 yuan was used for construction, which was good.
Chu Yang suppressed his emotions. At this moment, he should not worry too much and deal with the problem first to ease the current crisis. He would not let this matter go and collect evidence later. This was the best time to bring down Mr. Liang.
"Director Mao, this situation is extremely bad. You should know what the consequences will be if I report it, but I know it's not easy for everyone. The most urgent task now is to restore power. I don't care what method you use, you must restore power to the entire area tomorrow night. You won't let me down, right?"
Yes, Chu Yang now wants to accumulate merits.
Only by standing in a high place can you overlook everything and punish evil.
Otherwise, as a low-level employee, no matter how much you shout, it will be useless.
Director Mao looked at Chu Yang with some gratitude and said, "Thank you, Director Chu. I promise to complete the task. I will arrange it right away."
“Come back.” Chu Yang called him, “Restoring power is the top priority, but you must pay attention to safety. If anything goes wrong, you’ll be the one to blame.”
Chu Yang knew that these people’s methods were nothing more than to oppress the people below them, but this was the time when things were most likely to go wrong.
Director Mao: "Yes, Director Chu, don't worry."
After arranging everything, Chu Yang took Director Mao to visit several families in the town.
When I saw an old lady groping in the dark at home, I asked her, "Grandma, we will bring you electricity soon, don't worry."
The old lady stood up and said, "Haha, there's nothing we can do when a natural disaster strikes. Thank you for your hard work."
Chu Yang asked, "Grandma, if there is still no electricity tomorrow, you will go to Director Mao to settle the score. I said so."
The old woman shook her head and said, "I can't. I saw your power supply people rushing to repair it early in the morning. It's not easy. It's windy and rainy. It's windy. It's not anyone's fault . Blame it on God! They are all good children."
Chu Yang said goodbye to the old lady and went to a few more households, assuring them that electricity would be restored tomorrow. They all said it was a natural disaster and that they would be able to withstand it, and they all praised Director Mao for caring about the people and handling the matter in a timely manner.
Seeing the smile on Director Mao's face, Chu Yang said dissatisfiedly: "Director Mao, the masses are all good people, and they are all reasonable, but we can't let them down. Aren't you ashamed?"
Director Mao's face flushed, and he nodded continuously, saying, "Director Chu is right. I promise to learn from the lesson and make up my mind to rectify the situation! Then I will ask Director Chu to inspect and guide us."
Chu Yang visited a few more places, emphasized the safety issues, and then returned to the city with Sister Hua.
Chu Yang in the car had a serious look on his face.
I started thinking about how to bring down Mr. Liang.
It’s just a matter of the concrete tower, I guess it’s not enough.
Maybe that dead man is a breakthrough.
