C143 Must change

Ma Mingqiao immediately informed Yu Xu Lin, the treasurer of the Treasury. He then tidied up the balance sheet for the past few months and brought it to his office.

Yu Xu Lin quickly brought a few documents to Ma Mingqiao's office. Ma Mingqiao opened the reports and looked at it carefully, his expression was gloomy, he looked at Yu Xu Lin and said: "Leave it here for me, I'll show it to Dushuji later."

"Good!" "Then I'll go back first." After Yu Xu Lin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.

Ma Mingqiao took the reports, hesitated a little, and still went to Du Ruiqi's room.

Looking at these reports, Du Ruiqi's heart could not help but shiver!

If he didn't see it, he wouldn't know. But when he saw it, he was shocked!

The Peace Town was basically running on debts, but every month, the hospitality fee in the town was extremely shocking!

paid-in office's hospitality last month amounted to over thirty thousand yuan, all of them were signed by Mao Ligui. The office's hospitality last month was even more outrageous, it was over sixty thousand yuan. It was basically Yu Minhe's proof, Ma Mingqiao's signature;

If such a rough calculation was carried out, even without considering the wages of all the workers, the hospitality and car service fees alone amounted to more than 120,000 per month. How could it be maintained like this? These people kept saying that they were in financial distress and could not pay their salaries, but behind them was such a extravagant waste. It was as if paying their wages was not something they were considering.

Hehe, this kind of team, Du Ruiqi really did not expect it!

She had heard before that even though the wages of the village officials were low, people basically didn't rely on those salaries. What did they rely on? After looking at these tables, Du Ruiqi finally understood that there was a loss inside the embankment to make up for the losses outside the embankment! There were only a few people who might have gotten some benefits from the dike, but the majority of the workers in the dike were unable to benefit from it. That is to say, these people are damaging the interests of the vast majority of people to fatten themselves? The employees of the Ordinary cadres could not even get a salary, but the leaders ate and drank to their heart's content without restraint. It was no wonder that the Ordinary cadres was in a good mood and did not have any enthusiasm for work.

Du Ruiqi flipped through the forms a few times. After thinking about it, she looked at Ma Mingqiao who was sitting opposite to her and said, "Mayor Ma, from now on, we need to unite our thoughts. From now on, we need to be responsible for all the expenditures in the town. Other than you, no one else has the right to sign a report. In an extreme period, there must be an extraordinary move, we must start to throttle. Opening up the source was rather difficult right now, so he could only do the job of saving the flow well. He could save as much as he could and not spend what he could. I think our hospitality fee is quite amazing. If we continue to eat like this, not only will we not be able to pay our salaries, we might even have to sell our only office building to pay off our debts! So it's up to you to keep your mouth shut. And our car consumption, about 20,000 yuan a month. I think we can control the car usage from now on and use it as little as possible, unless we go to the county town and have a meeting. At other times, we can use other methods to travel. "Being able to control these fees and ensure that the wages of our entire town's cadre workers are paid on time is the first financial barrier that we have to grasp well."

Ma Mingqiao sat on the chair, pursing his lips from start to end, not saying a word.

He had thought of all the things Du Ruiqi had said. With such a financial situation, there was no other way but to control the expenditure.

Now that she said that she wanted to use a pen to control all the expenses, he would be the biggest loser. If there were no benefits, he would definitely be full of hoopla. Forget about others, just with Zhang Yuanli alone, he would probably be stomping his feet and swearing.

Du Ruiqi had just arrived, so she might not understand Zhang Yuanli too well. But Ma Mingqiao understood Mao Ligui too well.

This person had worked in the village for his entire life, and now, he was in his fifties, enduring until he finally became a permanent vice mayor. This time, he was competing for the position of mayor with Ma Mingqiao, but Zhang Yuanli never thought that he would be given the position of mayor by Ma Mingqiao. Zhang Yuanli thought that no matter how he looked at it, he was stronger than Ma Mingqiao. Today, when Wu Nancheng announced Ma Mingqiao to be the mayor, he was so angry that he started snorting. The words that he said in the afternoon at the political party meeting was also an indication of the extreme dissatisfaction in Mao Ligui's heart.

Mao Ligui had always been the tyrant of the Peace Town, he thought that since he was old, his foundations were stable in the Peace Town, and every single Mayor of the Calligraphy was kind to him. Right now, not only did he not mention the mayor, he had also cut off his road to riches. This was no different from adding oil to the fire, and would definitely enrage Mao Ligui.

"Dushuji, this idea of yours is something that the Ming Qiao approved of, and it is also something that you hold unconditionally. "It's easy to say that it's easy to control financial expenditures, but once it's implemented, it might not be that easy." Ma Mingqiao said with some difficulty.

"Mayor Ma, what are you worried about?" Du Ruiqi asked with a smile.

"Dushuji has also seen these reports, the income and expenditure over at paid-in office has always been with Mao Ligui, the others have never interfered, suddenly making adjustments, I think it would be very hard for others to accept." Ma Mingqiao stuttered.

"Hehe, Mayor Ma, you are overthinking it! At the beginning, they might not be used to it, but after a while, they would get used to it. Besides, we are doing this in the interests of the town's cadres, and this is a measure that must be taken for the good running of the town. "Don't worry about it. We must unite our thoughts and have a meeting of the Party committee tomorrow to discuss this matter." Du Ruiqi said.

"Good!" Ming Qiao only holds the Dushuji's decision. " Ma Mingqiao said.

"Mayor Ma, although this is our first time working together, I believe that we will definitely cooperate happily. If you dare to do it, I won't be worried about you doing it! " Du Ruiqi said as she held Ma Mingqiao's hand.

"Thank you for your trust Dushuji, Ming Qiao will definitely live up to your expectations!" Ma Mingqiao felt the strength and confidence Du Ruiqi had passed on to him.

Ma Mingqiao looked at the time and said: "When it's time for dinner, we will eat at the town's cafeteria."

"Alright, Ruiqi likes to eat everyday." Du Ruiqi laughed and said, "Do I need to bring my own lunchbox?"

"No need, there's a bowl and chopsticks in the cafeteria." Ma Mingqiao said.

"Alright, let's go down together." Du Ruiqi got up and walked towards the canteen with Ma Mingqiao.

After going through the low back door, Du Ruiqi unconsciously lowered her head.

Every time he passed by this place, Du Ruiqi felt something was strange. It was as if he was always going through the back door. It was very shameful.

The cafeteria was on the left side of the town's office building. It was a row of low, one-story houses.

When Du Ruiqi got down from the stage, he saw that the rest of the staff had already packed up their meals. Some were standing under the tree eating, while others were carrying their bowls and food into the room.

The small summer walked out just in time to take his bowl.

Du Ruiqi looked at small summer and laughed.

"Good morning, Dushuji!" small summer approached Du Ruiqi and called out softly.

Du Ruiqi nodded towards small summer. She saw that inside small summer's bowl, there was a little dish covered with white rice, a few pieces of meat and a little vegetables.

Eating it so simply! Du Ruiqi was in disbelief.

When the other people eating outside saw Du Ruiqi walking over, some of them turned their backs. That act of eating reminded Du Ruiqi of his own student days. At that time when she was still in his teacher's days, they also ate standing like this. Who would have thought that after working for more than ten years, she would return to such an environment?

"Is there no table to sit at?" Du Ruiqi asked Ma Mingqiao who was walking beside him.

"There are, only two tables. It's not enough for me to sit at. Basically, the leader is sitting inside. The others are all out having their meals outside." Ma Mingqiao said.

Walking into the cafeteria, Du Ruiqi was shocked at heart.

The kitchen outside was wet and muddy from the trampling. Sanitary conditions are evident.

The kitchen looked long and dark, barely visible.

Ma Mingqiao led Du Ruiqi inside a room, and saw two tables inside.

Mao Ligui, Qiu Yangcai, Xu Wenjuan and the rest were all sitting inside eating. The room reeked of alcohol.

Seeing Du Ruiqi enter, Xu Wenjuan, Yu Minhe and Qiu Yangcai immediately stood up, but Mao Ligui acted as if he did not see her, and continued to drink with his head lowered. Looks like the treatment given by the leader was much better than that of the Ordinary cadres. His work meals are already so sumptuous, and he could even drink wine. Du Ruiqi looked at the table filled with dishes, and thought of the young men and young ladies at the door, and couldn't help but feel a little pain in his heart.

"It's fine, you guys eat." Du Ruiqi waved her hand and said.

Ma Mingqiao picked up the bowl in the basket at the side and gave Du Ruiqi a bowl of rice. Then, he scooped up another bowl for himself and carried it to the other table.

Du Ruiqi took the bowl of rice from Ma Mingqiao's hands and said, "Thank you!" Then she sat down and began to eat.

The others finished their food and walked out.

Mao Ligui seemed to be still drinking, eating alone at that table.

"Is this how we eat?" Du Ruiqi asked Ma Mingqiao while eating.

"No, most cadres use their meal tickets to buy as much food as they can. Since the Leader doesn't need a meal ticket, he should just eat inside. " Ma Mingqiao said.

No wonder the small summer only had that many dishes in his bowl. This child had saved his feelings and only bought a few dishes!

Seeing that the table was filled with dishes, Du Ruiqi sighed in her heart: The employees of Ordinary cadres, eat your own food, eat sparingly, lead staff, eat free and eat as much as you want, and waste so much! Even such a small Town Government like him had such a clear difference in status.

Although this meal could not compare to the mealy welcoming meal that was held at noon, it still made Du Ruiqi feel very uncomfortable. This phenomenon must be changed!
