Chapter Summary
The people below have been waiting for the money for a week, and many of them are already losing their hair from waiting. The current situation is not about punishing Zhao Wudi, after all, there are too many people involved, and Zhao Wudi's contributions are there for all to see; he has saved the city countless times. After Liu Ning said this several times, the two women still wouldn't listen to him, so he simply let them continue living there.
Now that the money has arrived, Zhao Wudi is not a miser and knows that the money needs to be distributed to have any momentum. The people below have been waiting for the money for a week, and many of them are already losing their hair from waiting.
Leaving it here every day without moving around, the salaries of the staff and the rental fees for the equipment are not a small amount. It's like a snowball rolling downhill. At first, everyone can manage it, but after a week, they'll have to borrow money.
A month later, it will probably be a considerable sum of money for the government. The only solution is to pay them the project funds as soon as possible, so that there won't be so many complaints throughout the city. Road construction always requires road closures.
When you block the road, people's lives are affected. If you work hard to speed up the construction, people won't say a word. But if you dawdle and don't know what to do, that's unacceptable.
The common people will definitely have a lot to say about this. That's the current situation. If everything can be done well, naturally no one will say anything. Now Zhao Wudi has to quickly make up for this loss.
Putting aside how well we've done this, just looking at what the remaining people think is a very valuable thing. You can tell from their expressions that things are still manageable for now, but if it gets delayed for another two weeks, we can't afford to drag it out.
Then this amount of money becomes an astronomical figure, and these people probably can't solve it. Many people will have to resign. Zhao Wudi won't have to resign, but many people in his team will have to leave. That's the rule.
Although Zhao Wudi is very capable and has many supporters in the capital, you still have to abide by the rules when you're in officialdom. If the rules say you can't do it, then you have to resolve all of this. That's how it is.
If the rules say it's okay for you, then you can continue doing it. The current situation is not about punishing Zhao Wudi, after all, there are too many people involved, and Zhao Wudi's contributions are there for all to see; he has saved the city countless times.
If you punish Zhao Wudi, it will be difficult to explain to the people. This is a person's prestige in this city. Although the road repair issue has caused some trouble, it would be a problem if Zhao Wudi were punished for such a small matter.
The people might become unstable at that time, so the higher-ups won't do that. But does that mean Zhao Wudi won't be punished? Of course not, so Zhao Wudi's subordinates have to be used as scapegoats.
No matter how long you've worked for Mr. Zhao, you're now going to be the scapegoat. Things have turned out this way, and someone has to take responsibility and give an explanation to those below. So these people have to start leaving.
Although Zhao Wudi could arrange new positions for them, it would still be better to stay with Zhao Wudi in the garrison headquarters. That's a prestigious position. No matter how high you rise in a company, you're still within the same company.
However, if you rise in rank within the naval base, many people will look up to you, that much is certain.
After Zhu Tianhua received the money, he was about to go back to do his own thing when Liu Ning, who hadn't seen the two of them for a long time, invited him to his home for a few drinks. Liu Ning's home was located within the garrison's compound.
He returned less than three times in total, which was just the right time to use as a social venue. Ordinary people wouldn't have the opportunity to come to Liu Ning's house, and even if Liu Ning wanted to host a banquet, the garrison headquarters had prepared many venues.
No one will be disturbed at Liu Ning's house. It can be used as a social venue now, since no one lives there anyway. Liu Ning can drink with others here without disturbing anyone else. Liu Ning's mother and wife live in that middle-class neighborhood.
They both thought that the other side was a more suitable place to live, and they also had many acquaintances there. After Liu Ning said this several times, the two women still wouldn't listen to him, so he simply let them continue living there.
Anyway, with his current abilities, no one would dare cause trouble in the city. Liu Ning had also provided them with sufficiently strong bodyguards. If anyone did cause trouble, they would be finished. Zhu Tianhua hadn't expected Liu Ning to invite him for drinks. Although the two used to be on the same side, the gap between them was now too great. Liu Ning was just a stepping stone here, but even this stepping stone position was the end of Zhu Tianhua's life.
The main reason is that Zhu Tianhua's strength is not strong enough. It is already quite difficult for him to control an area in the West District. Without his father's efforts, he would just be an ordinary clerk now, and would never have such a high position.
"Just make do with what you have. I don't come back here often. Although there are many good chefs, I don't need to spend millions a month to support them, so I broke them all up."
But I often drink with people here, so I have a lot of frozen food. Although it doesn't taste very good, I know you usually eat at famous restaurants, so you'll just have to make do with this.”
What Liu Ning said was not a lie. Because he was not often here, there was no need to keep those people under him. You have to know that the monthly expenses of those people are not a small amount of money. It's not that Liu Ning said he couldn't afford it.
The main reason is that they don't want to waste resources, so they only keep two people cleaning here. Liu Ning doesn't need to pay for security. This is the garrison's residential area, and the government pays for all the security in the surrounding area. This is also a benefit that Liu Ning enjoys.
If people reach this level and still can't enjoy special treatment, will people in society work hard? They might just become lazy. Many people say everyone is equal, but in reality, such a situation is impossible in society.
If society were truly equal for everyone, would anyone still strive? If the outcome of lying in bed is the same as that of those who are out striving, then everyone might as well stay in bed. This would be a huge step backward for humanity as a whole.
Therefore, such a situation is impossible. It is precisely because of this that humanity still needs to progress. Without progress, there is no way to move forward. Everyone is very clear about this.
